DOCTOR W.E.B. DuBOIS WILL SPEAK IN ST.LOUIS NEXT FRIDAY Review of Reviews Praises Work Colored Regiments Did Along With the Whole Race to Win the War. NEW YORK, May 8.—Another notable instance of the new era of justice is brought out in the Review of Reviews, one of the great magazines of the country dealing with current history and events. The information played in winning the war from an industrial viewpoint, is not even generally known by us, and is of greatest moment. Here are some of the things the Review says we did along industrial and agricultural lines: "Helped build ships to dig coal, to operate railroads, to raise corn, wheat oats, hogs and other food products, an to raise cotton and other staple. Worked in powder plants and build cantonments. The brawny arm of Colored stewards and screwmen loaded many vessels with supplies on the docks at Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans, New York, Baltimore, and other places, and unmounted equipment for foreign ports. When the full story of the war is written, the Colored stewards regiments at French — who sometimes worked night and day without relief will have a high place in the annals of victory. A gang of Colored stewards at Spartan Point, Md., first broke the world's record for driving rivets into the hull of a ship. Thousands of other Negro workers in the shipyards at Newport News, Charleston, Wilmington, Tampa and other places — to build the "bridge of ships for the railroad" — supplied to Europe. Negro pilots at Hog Island established new world's records, which will stand. In the coal fields of West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and Alabama, other thousands — many of them working extra shiite coal during the serious winter months of 1817-18, thus helping to provide fuel not only for homes but also for industry and transportation during the mad race of war. In agriculture, during the past four years, the values of the crops in the Southern states increased rapidly than the cotton crops, great as those were. The Negro farmer and farm laborer had a large share in this increase. LIEUT EUROPE BURIED WITH MILITARY HONORS NEW YORK, May 13.—A military funeral was held here today for Levt. H. McCormick, a veteran of Infantry's "iars" band, which won wide fame overseas with the Negro "hell fighters," who before the war, made up the old 15th New York National Guard. A long cortege accompanied the body to the railroad station for the journey to Washington, where buried in Boston by one of his musicians, who was sold to have been insane.

Effects of Southerners to Inject Race Discrimination in New Organization Dice in Committee. The American Legion, composed of discharged soldiers of the late war, was organised in St. Louis last week and in spite of the fact that an effort was made by some of the southern delegates to inject race discrimination in the Constitution, the League went on record as indorsing all soldiers on the same basis of eligibility regardless of color. In fact the color question never got past the committees. There were 35 Colored delegates present from about 100 states. She represented Missouri, was appointed by the Committee on Constitution and by-Laws. Leut J. Steward Davis of Baltimore was appointed on the Credentiality Committee. He is an attorney-at-law. By a mere coincidence, both of these appointees were connected with the 351 Field Artillery during the war, and were the only Colored to be given commissionships in the history, making them the only temporary and will meet in Minnesota in November to perfect permanency. A new post has been organized among Negroes in St. Louis with about 30 members. W. Silas Lawrence, W. William Locke, William Locke, and Annual Secretary-Treasurer: Wm. H.

C., May 8.—The ef fert of the Race people to get in on the municipal elections in this city was defeated by themselves, aided and abetted by white politicians, the titular new white politician, who is regarded an adept in handling our people. There are 582 of our registered voters, and the highest number of votes received did not amount to 200, which plainly indicate that the others remained away from the polls. The daily newspapers frankly state that the active number had voted together, that they would have been "something doer." TO BUILD TWO NEW SCHOOLS Superintendent Witthers of the Fairfield School, Tuesday night, that two schools be built to accommodate the Colored children, one for a Junior High and the other to take the place of the Cottage Avenue Portables. These recommendations follow a petition recently submitted by 1900 citizens requesting that the Simmons School District be divided and adequate buildings be built. The district will port calls for several new structures which will take about five years to complete. This does not mean, however, that the Colored district must wait that long.

But the edibles, drinks and smokes were just what suited both new and old members and lasted about two hours. Might have gone longer, but we had to let an orchestra of mine of the boys get their train for Davenport. We had to listen on the Steamer St. Paul this season, the New song they sang on departure. "Oh, how I hate to leave the gang." Now to the musicians of St. Louis who are not affiliated with the federation, our doors are open for capable musicians, young men and women will you take advantage of this our last offer at a special rate that will close lst of June, main underwriters of social conditions and other appalling matters that exist today, for the musician must be properly fed, clothed, and housed so as to maintain a high degree for physical and musical fitness, if you think or know this to be true, then endorse the federation by becoming a member where sufficient revenue is demanded for your work that enables you to meet the necessities of life, let or next reception be the one you are a participant. A. A. SIMMS, President. E. CLAYTON, Secretary. CHICAGO MILLIONAIRES INVESTIGATING UNREST AMONG THE NEGROES By Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO, May 8.—Chicagoans, of both races, are viewing with much concern, the great wave of "social unrest" that is manifested on the nation's education system. Not only have the daily newspaper taken an unusual interest in urging just consideration to the claims of its Colored people, but the Union League Club, the greatest organization of its kind the world, composed of the millionaires of Chicago and the Northwest, have appointed a special committee to look into the subject, so far as our people are concerned. It is everywhere admitted, without question, that the nation has argued that the justice to which it is entitled, and there is going to be a looking into matters in the efficient manner in which the white Americans always deal with subjects, when they make up their minds to act. NEGRO EDUCATION GETS GOOD BOOST Shelby County, Tenn., believes Negro education worth providing for. Last winter the County board of education appropriated $40,000 for twenty-five new public schools for Colored children.

FATE OF MICHIGAN JIM CROW SCHOOL To Be Knocked Out Because It Is Contrary To Law Law ANN ARBOR, Mich. May 15—Walter Robine and Herman Kerman representing our people of Ypsilanti, were before Occhitto Judge Sample recently as plaintiffs in attempt to secure the abandonment of the Adams street school in Ypsilanti. Their petition alleges the school is being conducted exclusively for our children, contrary to the state law, and constitutes discrimination, that the school is not as good a other school on Ypsilanti and that the school's management is very bad also that there is a lack of safety connection. The Ypsilanti superintendent admitted the inattentive conditions of the school, but maintained the board of education attempted to conduct that school along the same line of others in the city. He testified the board planned to build a new school on the Adams street site, to cost 18,000, Attorney John P. Kirk, representing the board, bringing out testimony that the property held this proposition Walter Robine testified that he was opposed to the continuance of the school or any such school in that locally because it was a discrimination against the race. Guy R. Davis, president of the Ypsilanti board of education, acknowledged in his testimony that our children of Ypsilanti had been segregated in the Adams street school and white children living in that district had been given permission to attend other schools for that purpose in school in question, and himself an Afro-American, testified that he took the principalship of the school only with the understanding that it was to be maintained as a school for our children. The judge will render his decision in a day or two. CONFIDENCE MINISTER FOOLING THE PEOPLE By Associated Negro Press BIRMINGHAM Ala., May 15—An alloy toughed member of the Race has been going about his preaching freedom and Negro rule in Africa. He has been telling them that a new nation with a Negro for King is to be set up in the dark contingent; that bread grows on trees and honey flows from the spring; that when they get there, all their troubles will be over, and all they will have to do is themselves under the shade of the tree in the garden. A bout twenty families are said to have sold their possessions and are packing to go to the "land of promise." ODD FELLOWS' ANNUAL SERMON The G. U. O. of O.

Grand Master Ford fully touched upon the condition of the order and Bro. Ostrathes distinguished himself as Orator.

Ross of Silver Star H. H., who did honor to the mother. Her message was full of much food for the children, and the spiritual way, delivered the annual Thanksgiving sermon.

P.—Making an earnest plea for better opportunities of the Race based on our latest achievement at home and abroad in the great war, Dr. James E. Shepard, president of the National Training School for Negroes at Durham, N. C., delivered the last public speech in the present season at the Friday Forum, the First Congregational church, this city. Dr. Shepard pointed out that our group is the only one in this 'broad democracy which is excluded by law to exercise the inalienable rights of the Negroes. The speaker expressed himself of being hopeful of accomplishment during the reconstruction period are: complete enfranchisement in all states; better educational opportunities; justice in the courts and the rights of the Negro to acquire property anywhere.

In consideration of the fact that the National Negro Business League, at their last convention, chose the City of St. Louis to host of meeting, the members of the local league are busy planning for the entertainment of the many delegates who shall necessarily visit our city. In advance of all other plans the league has appointed a Committee on Publicity, which committee will put the coming convention before the public and make every effort to arouse the interest of the citizens of this city in the Negro Business League. At the same time the publicity campaign starts there will be opened a campaign for the increase of the membership of the local league. Rev. Mr. J. Lyle Caston, one of our well-known, progressive young men, has been chosen as chairman of the publicity committee and one of our most representative men viz: Attorney Homar. G. Phillips, one of the leading attorneys in our city without regard to race Messrs. E. Pattillo. W. H. Fields and Ben F. Barrow, all men well-known in the business and professional circles of our city. It seems that special pains were felt by the convention might be placed before the public in such a way as to bring the very best of results. An office has been temporarily opened for the launching of the campaign, at 2335a arket street, and it is the intention of the league to establish its own office for the work as soon as a suitable location can be found. Here, in this office will be gathered out of the work of publicity, and from this office also will come articles to the daily papers giving the public information of interest relative to the Negro Business League both local and national. The attention of all business men and women is called, therefore, to the importance of the Convention. As though you do not mean something to the Negro, it is important that you give it your very earnest consideration for it means much to you as members of the Negro race. Stop and consider the passing events of the present time and think if they do not mean something so the race. If you will consider events in the right light, I believe you will understand that the Negro Business League something is going to come up that is going to bring out light on the great events taking place in the world affairs, especially the events that effect the side of the Negro race. Here will be discussed plans, and here some definite idea is going to be stated which will culminate in some real work being done so that the Negro developed along business and is able to prove to the public that he is rising to the standard of efficiency and learning to handle his end of the world's affairs. WANT SHERIFFS IN NEGRO LODGE ROOMS By Associated Negro Press By Associated News, May 15- There has been an effort lagged in this community to have a law passed to make it possible for the sheriff of this county, or its deputies, to have access to the secret lodge hall in the Race, because "Negro lodges are nothing more nor less than hotbeds of an archy and Bolshevism and ways plotting and seizing against the race." This statement was made by W. J. Wingate, white, who further declares: The more and longer they are permitted to go where their Bolshevistic plotting institutions the more dangerous the menace will become. This plain to you in the future and for this reason if you would go to insert the garrison that would save the future and perhaps world of trouble for both races. "The Vean law ought to be amended ed so as to apply to the secret Negro lodges in some way as well as other institutions. The legislature could pass a law giving our sheriffs and deputies the right and authority to inspect these institutions and this conditions in the country surround ing the city." To听 hear the conclusion of the whole matter, according to the high sense of justice of Wingate, and those he represents: "I fully believe in giving hard working law abiding Negroes all protection, and our white people every where, should see that there is a riot, the harm less, innocent Negro should be protected, by all concerned. Let him know that the great white race is his friend." NINE WHITES WOUNDED IN ASSAULT ON NEGRO RESIDENTS IN PHILA BROOKHILL PHILADELPHIA, May 8—Serious fighting near Twenty-fifth and Pine streets between Negro tenants newly moved into the district and a gang that has long terrorized residents, resulted this morning, in the serious wounding of nine white men by the residents. resulted five whites and forty of our people participated in the fight, which began when a mob broke open the door at 2535 Pine street, of a Race of citizens who has always lived unrightly in the community, and tried to eject the family. The citizen, George Graham, moved there a week number of the men were arrested. ASSOCIATION OF COMMERCE IN CHI SHOWS ITS HAND Organization Which Looked "Into the Negro Problem." Telegraphs to All Large Southern Cities, "Are You in Need of Negro Labor? Large Surplus Here." By Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO, MAY 15—The people of Chicago, much concerned about the motive of the Chicago Association of Commerce in telegraphing to all the large Southern cities and inquiring of the commercial bodies in that section whether they have any employment opening of any kind for members of the Race. Coming as it does, in connection with concerted effort on the part of all the daily newspapers and the leading civic organizations of the community to "look into the Chicago Negro problem," it is one sus people as to whether there may not be some "white folks in the wood pile." One citizen stated: "You know, you have to keep your weather eye on the white people. So often we think they are going an they are coming. Really, many of them are quite clever, or at least would have it so appear. As a matter of fact, there are some white people that I would not see in the dark in the city, but by the telegram sent to the Southern cities reads: "Are you in need of Negro in bor? Large surplus here. Both returned soldiers and civilians. Negroes ready to work. Can you send responsible parties to in terview Negroes and make suitable selection and arrangements for locatin them in job where needed for your section? Soldiers bureau ready to provide office facillities and cooperate in every way possible. (Signed) R. B. BEACH. Chicago Association of Commerce. This telegram in being received with varied degrees of enthusiasm in the South, and the story concerning the "meach for openings" is being played up and written up in the customary Southern fashion of accepting gingerly suggestions amusing from the North, white or otherwise. Some of the headlines in various newspapers are amusing at variance with the facts in the cane. The Greenville, (S. C.) Pledmont has this caption: "The Negroes in the Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer has this head: "Chicago Has Surplus of Negroes; Could Columbus Use Them?" The Enquirer proceeds to say, after printing the telegram: In the event the local Commerce Organization decides to accept the offer of the Chicago body, a representative will be dispatched to the Windy City with instructions to pick out only Southern Negroes who have ventured up North in search of the promised gold mines. No Northern Negroes to inculcate Northern males to the minds of the Southern blacks will be brought to South. Careful investigation by the Aaso-related Negro Press discloses the fact that there are some of the Race out of work, just as there are thousands of whites, but there has been no request on the part of the men out of work to have the Chicago Commerce body telegraph South to find work, to work in the city, to give a general disposition not to return South, but there are hundreds of people from the South coming North. it is regarded as a bit of presumption on the part of the Chicago body and "R. B. Beach" to try in this manner to "get rid" of the Colored people in Chicago. Chicago is on the three hold of the greatest building revival in the city, and is being belfied by all thoughtful people that the demand for labor in a few weeks will far exceed the supply. TROY P.

D. Wilkerson. 4237 W. Luckey, well known in St. Louis among the social and business element and President of the Diana Journal Co., was called to the office of a prominent white lawyer and one of St. Louis' Republican politicians the other day. Young Wilkerson had written a paper expressing his ideas upon a case before the bar. So cleverly used were his technical law terms, and so pointed were his legal reasonings, that their lawyer wanted to see any young man who possessed such reasoning powers. The lawyer declared it was too technical for any young man and that a judge of this city was its author. He found, however, that its author was a St. Louisan and a colored boy. Wilkerson was sent for, and on arriving at the lawyer's office he received an introduction first to the lawyer and then to his lady stenographer, who also had read a copy of the paper. The lawyer spent half an hour with Wilkerson while two of his clients were compelled to wait. Wilkerson, being a shrewd and forceful talker, soon made an impression. After satisfying the lawyer, who was white headed, that he wrote the paper which treated on "The Rule of Precedent" and "Stare Decisis," the lawyer told him that up until that minute he had believed a judge had written it. The short conference then continued upon the technicalities and other phases of law. Wilkerson is preparing for college, where he will take a five-year law course, which gives the degrees of A. B. (Bachelor of Arts) and LL. B. (Doctor-of-Law). He declares his intention in pursuing the law is not to see how "rascally clever" he can becoming in evading law for a personal and a debased egotistical benefit, but how stamach an upholder of justice he can become through the power of God for all oppressed peoples. He knows his life work is not an easy one, but declares his motto to be "Success Againts Odda." Diseases of Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat.

You probably have tried all sorts of remedies on your scalp without getting the desired results, until you have become discouraged and lost confidence in all hair remedies. Thousands of others, like yourself, finally turned to using Seeby's Quinade, and have been no pleased with the result, they would never again waste their time or money using anything else. Quinade is not an ordinary pomade; it is highly medicated and is a real scalp food. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long, straight hair. It will make coarse, stubborn hair soft and silky, and easy to put up in the style desired. Quinade will positively allay itching of the scalp; and dandruff, which is the real cause of most hair and scalp troubles. To get best results from the use of Quinade, one should shampoo the scalp every two weeks with Seeby's Quinada-soap, a soap made entirely of pure vegetable oils. Quinada-soap lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled by any other shampoo. Insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Quinada-soap, asking for them by their full names. Price is 25c each. If your drugstler or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them from his wholesaler for you, or send us the price, and we will mail them to you direct. Seeby Drug Co.

Slim Mason's Comedy Company is offering the Booker Washington Theatre patrons a reminiscence show this week, a revue of the early days of Negro comedy. The show opens with an old fashion camp meeting day, with its anti-bellium songs and sermons, which serve the purpose of being funny. Later on the three days of human decapitation, on the deaf and dumb, the cripple and the blind, are introduced with effective results. The show closes with the familiar one-act domestic comedy "The Railroad Porter." There are a few commendable specialties, however, which lift the company out of its thread worn efforts, and deserve special mention. For instance: Keith, as a female impersonator in a comical makeup, has a funny bone punch which draws a hilarious response. "Have a Smile," by Miss Rynolds and girls, is a dressy and artistic song presentation. Miss Russell sing, "Chattanooga Blues" effectively. The girls do a little "shimmying" and Mason aran shows to advantage as a comedian. The engagement will close Sunday night. BASE BALL GAME IN PICTURES. Motion pictures of the St. Louis Giants Baseball opening on Booster Day will be shown at the Booker Washington Theatre all week, beginning Monday, May 26. *PERILS OF THUNDER MOUNTAIN COMING TO THE B. W. The "Perils of Thunder Mountain," a new Vintage serial in 15 episodes, said to have a thousand thrills, will start at the Booker Washington Theater Thursday, May 29. Antonio Moreno and Carol Holloway are the stars. It is a show serial taken in the mountains of Northern California and abounds in real risks to life and limb and actual hair breadth escapes. Austin and Delaney were at the Rialto the first half, this week. Campbell's Georgia Minstrels, Pace's "High Brow Smart Set," and Allen's Minstrels are three theatrical companies that have passed through St. Louis the past week to fill engagements in surrounding towns. NEW FEATURES COMING TO THE PENDLETON. Alla Nazimova, who will be seen at the Pendleton Theatre, this Sunday and Monday, has become the supreme screen star of the day. She was born in Talta, a little Crimean town on the shores of the Black Sea. Before taking up the screen she starred in many of the greatest stage productions, and was once stopped by the Russian censors when she attempted to make a production of "The Chosen People," a revolutionary play. Nazimova's career in this country has been a series of continuous and tremendous successes, which have placed her at the top of the ladder of dramatic and screen fame. Since "War Brides," all her appearances on the silver sheet have been in Nazimova productions, where she has appeared in "Revelation," which has been called a classic by the most notable critics of the day, and "Toys of Fate," another super-screen production. In "Eye for Eye," which is perhaps the most famous play she plays the part of Hassouna, a beautiful and fiery Arabian girl, she has added new launches to her wreath of fame. "Silent Mystery" Monday. Francis Ford, in his newest and greatest serial, "The Silent Mystery," packed with thrills and creepy doings, will be seen at the Pendleton starting Monday. Theda Bara—Tuesday. Theda Bara in "The Siren's Song" will be Tuesday's feature, "The Siren's Song" is a powerful dramatic picture that tells in a new way the story of the eternal struggle of woman's love and sacrifice. Miss Bara portrays a little girl of Brittany, who is brought up in an environment of religious severity. It shatters her love romance with a divinity student, and makes her gift of song a source of sorrow to her. Eventually, by dint of a heart-breaking struggle, she becomes a noted prima donna. Regardless of convention, she lives with the man she loves until her minister-lover returns. He forces her to renounce the joys of loving. After she has made her way to the minister, that the minister is a hypocrite and that her spiritual regenerator made her blind to her true love—the man she sent away. The Jungle Trail. The following big moments will be seen in "The Jungle Trail, Wm. Farnum's thriller, which comes to the Pendleton one day only, Saturday, May 24: Burning of Man at Stake, Escape from City of Savages; African Jungle Scenes; Weird Temple of Light; Native's Strange Ceremonials; Discovery of Second Garden of Eden; Overturing of Statue of Idol; Hurling of Crocodile Infared Lake; Dramatic Tie of Jewels from Temple Altar; Explorer's Single-Handed Fight With Savage Tribe; Spectacular Destruction of Cannibal Village; Farnum's Exhibition of Prodigious Strength. THE SMARTER SET. Now that the Bostonians, that famous and representative singing organization which held the most commanding position in history of light and comic opera singing in this country for over 38 years has passed away, it remains for Salem Tutt Whitney, J. Homer Tutt and "The Smarter Set" to sustain the popular interest in the melodies of standard songs and songs of originality. As a singing organization the "Smarter Set" is without equal in this country and has produced this book, which has provided this to be a fact, and though they are only humble Colored entertainers, when it comes to blending their repertoires, all question of race, color, race and conditions are forgotten. "The Smartset Set" presenting their latest comedy success entitled "Darkest Americana" in two acts, one night success with special scenic shows and continuing will be the offering at the Olsen, Grand and Finnerty, of the Olsen Set.

It has just been announced that United States District Judge, the Honorable David P. Dyer, has resigned from the bench of that high office. Judge Dyer was peculiarly fitted for this honored position because of his love for justice and equity. He was a close student of human nature and never allowed the whines and whims of the few or many to swerve him from administering justice. He was broad in his conception, of right and wrong always going to the heart of things, invariably winning any one who assumed to oppose his views. Judge Dyer has rendered this district and the nation a most valuable service during his twelve years on the bench. There comes a time in the course of human events, that all the people of the nation are interested in judicial decisions, and Judge Dyer was one in whom the people could look for a righteous judgment. Famous Segregation Case. It is proper to mention here that it was Judge Dyer who Killed residential segregation in St. Louis. His sweeping decision in the St. Louis case had its far-reaching effects throughout this country which was subsequently sustained by the U. S. Supreme Court in a full session. A few excerpts from his decision in the segregation case which show his real character: "Nine years ago I took an oath on this bench to administer justice to rich and poor alike. I have tried hard to live up to the obligation of that oath." "I have heard all this talk about intermarriage and miscegenation. I heard this same story fifty years ago. Arguments were then made for the purpose of scaring men out of their wits by an appeal to their prejudices. These arguments were made when the question of emancipation was up; it was the contention then that intermarriage between the races would follow. I did not believe it then and I don't believe it now. "Negroes do not ask for social equality, whites do not ask for it. Negroes only ask to have the same privileges as others have, the same rights under the law that others have." "The plaintiffs in this case are Negroes, born in the United States; they are tax payers of this city, by virtue of which they are entitled under the Constitution to the same legal rights as any white, native born, or any foreign born naturalized citizen of the United States. "I would not be doing my duty if I hesitated to deal out equal justice to every one alike." The people of this district still have a hope that when large human questions come up that demand, will be made upon Judge Dyer as he made upon Rolla Wells and compel him to sit in the interest of equity and justice.

Some States have long and honorable records of abstinence from mob violence, but no state is absolutely free from danger that it may break out, and since the question is highly important, in its national aspects, every state is interested. Nothing but the anarchy that succeeded war and revolution has permitted violent acts to occur in Western Europe that are in any degree comparable to the barbarous conduct of mobs in this country in times of settled peace and high prosperity. That fact helps one to measure the difference between the best governed countries in Europe and this country. What they do only in the throes of anarchistic convulsion this country does sometimes under the best government it can devise and administer. Is it any wonder that in times past critics of America across the sea have questioned whether certain parts of this country could be called civilized? The evil is not in the Government, but in a state of mind, and that is a much harder thing to change than government is. Some such organization as that which met in New York is needed to change the mind and attitude of many thousands of people on the subject of lynching, and until that is done there will always be a skeleton in the national closet. The above editorial appearing in the St. Louis Republic, a democrat daily newspaper furnishes some food for thought. It looks like that the good people of America regardless of politics are beginning to realize that mob violence is the darkest blot on the esutcheon of the American civilization. Because the Negro has been the principle victim of mob violence and all other forms of injustices in this country, we must accept the editorial coming from the Republic as a word in our favor, thus giving us renewal courage to appeal to all good people, regardless of politics, to join in the fight for the principles of true Americanism, which is fair deal to every man and his, regardless of race or color.

CAPTAIN TANDY'S TESTIMONY OM PROF. BAKER'S BOOKLET St. Louis, Mo., May 12, 1919. This is to certify that I am well acquainted with Prof. I. Bakor, and that I have read his booklet carefully on, "The Soul of Man." He or she who has given any thought on this subject and regards the hereafter, knows the reason I cheerfully recommend this most important book. I find in my research in biblical and ancient history that the Soul of man is the greatest of all subjects to be considered. When King David was in his quietude, he stole away because he knew the value of his Soul. And in his prayer he said, "Oh, my Soul, why art thou so quieted; and why art thou cast down?" Because he know that precious and purest jewel given to man, because he know a man's body must die, but his Soul lives on with the God that gave it. The heaven may pass away and the earth may be blotted out, but the Soul lives on. In this recommendation I say, to the young man, to the old man and to all the people of the world, that I recommend this little book because of its importance. All of the great prophets and ancient historians, from the existence of the world, have paid particular attention to this thought, the Soul of man. Tom Payne, the great infidel and all others, in the extremity of all their misery, had neglected to cultivate the most important part, which was the Soul. Every man should bequeath, in memory of his ancestors, this booklet, "The Soul of Man," to his future generations; for truly this book should be in every home. If a man has no land, no honey, he should leave this booklet as a guiding stone for the greatness of his generations to come. The Bible states in getting wisdom, never forget the important part, which is the Soul. Respectfully yours, CAPTAIN C. H. TANDY, 1224 Bayard Ave. 17 MINUTES TO A BEAUTIFUL EGG HARBOR CITY, N.
