HAPPY NEW YEAR A BABY smiles in its mother's face, There at her breast in a soft embrace A life beginning and all to learn. Oh, mother heart that shall leap and yearn, Teaching the dimpled feet to walk, Teaching the honeyed mouth to talk! Oh, time, make haste for the baby dear And spread the coming of each New Year! A youth with the fire and blood of spring And hope that rises on eager wing Thrills at the sight of a maiden's blush, Stirring his heart with the first hot flush wild 20 ar- lon Of love required, that finds its mate And yet but a little while must wait, Watches and listens thy step to hear, Oh, speed thy coming, thou sweet New Year! In manhood's prime there is standing one, And all but his greatest task is done. Beyond his reach, but before his eyes, Greatest of all is the final prize. Yet but a little he'll hold it fast; A year and a day 'twill be his at last, Conquering spirit that knows not fear, Bidding the Hoe hasten, oh, brave New Year! Gray is the crown of a wholesome life And peace the benison stole of strife. An aged man with his strength nigh spent, With nerves a tremble, his slight form bent, Erect in spirit and white of soul, With steps that fallen is near the goal. With knees bedimmed, but a faith that's clear. He leaves but thy breath, blest New Year! —New York World. NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS Good to Make on Any Day of Any Year.

Little Bits of New Year Verse Touch us gently, Time! Let us glide adown the stream Gently—as we sometimes glide Through a quiet dream. When time is flown, how it fled It is better neither to ask nor tell. Leave the dead moments to bury their dead. Come what come may, Time and the hour runs through the roughest day. -Macbeth. We ring the bells and raise the strain. Here's to a happy holiday Health and wealth for all the year. Work adjourned has many stays; Long demure breed new delays. —Southwell. MEXICO 2.

The year 1914 just closed has undoubtedly been the most momentous of modern times. It brought both weal and doe, just as other years have done, only each was more voluminous than heretofore. The biggest and most depolarable thing is the existing unchristian, inhuman war that is upsetting the entire world and costing billions of money and millions of lives and incomprehensible suffering. It is hoped that the United States will not be brought into it, though at times it seems that that is possible if not probable. As a general rule throughout the country it has been a prosperous year and a majority of the people made more money than usual. The "high cost of living," however, has about evended up things so that there is not much to brag of. A large number of noted people have passed to the "great beyond" during the year and some who will eventually be quite as noted made their advent into this fast, fast world. A New Year, 1915, has dawned, fraught with promise of both good and bad; and, since life is what we make it, let each one of us endeavor to do the best he can as God gives him wisdom to make this year the best ever. And when it ends, as each year does, may we, each one of us, have the satisfaction of feeling and believing that it has been made better, in some measure, because we have lived in it. We wish all a Happy Prosperous New Year! Jack Johnson was indirectly the cause of a splendid but peculiar funeral for Walter Campbell, an Afro-American barber of Little Rock, Ark, this week. Just before the Johnson-Jeffries fight Campbell made a wager with the leading white undertaker of the "City of Roses" that if Johnson lost, that he would shave the under- RUM SAYS PRESIDENT LOST HIS TEMPER.

When the women who are striving to secure equal suffrage approach him the womenudge the prerogative that every private citizen but no public citizen has the right to display of temper, and a declaration that he must refuse to be catechized. For the second time he has permitted himself to lose his temper when confronted by a delegation of citizens asking him to take action about a matter that is embarrassing to him. A number of Negroes, representing various ethnic groups, are present at the department at Washington. The spokesman of the delegation reminded him of campaign pledges made and stated that they did not come to him to ask charity, but as American citizens to demand equal treatment to that accorded other American citizens. The states are presumed to be the servant of all the people; he is not the master, but the servant. Under a monarchy is proper that the subjects should appear to believe "the king can do no wrong" and, therefore, refrain from criticism or from questioning. In a Republic there is no justification for any such belief. The President is, as is every public official, the servant of those who elect him, paid by them to administer the affairs of government. The servant or a master, is entitled to courteous consideration and should be safe from personally offensive criticism. So the President and every public servant should be subject only to that criticism which is just and proper, uttered in a courteous manner. But he, as every other servant, is the subject of proper criticism and has not the right to refuse to answer proper questions upon the ground of offended dig It is peculiarly fortunate that he should give the exhibitions of offended dignity upon occasions when women, who have not a vote, and Negroes, who are the weaker race, are those who appeal to him. If he believes that the policy of segregation should be adopted by the United States Government he should have no hesitation in so stating frankly and giving his reasons for the policy of segregation to the United States are composed, should each be segregated, he has a right so to believe and so state. Has he a right as President, to act in accord with that belief? Does the President of the United States believe that as a matter of governmental policy, citizens of African extraction should be treated differently from citizens of Anglo-Saxon, Teutonic or Latin extraction? Is the President of the United States, the Chief Executive officer of the greatest repute in the world, the chief executive of all nations, willing to stand before the peoples of the earth as giving the sanction of his great personality and high office to the perpetuation of race prejudice? Is it to be the policy of the government of the people, by the people, for the people, that any race is to be set aside as distinguished from another race? At what point will the government as government stop the segregation of different races? As we conceive the purpose of this government it is to treat every individual as equal before the eyes of the law—black or white, whether the creed matters not, whether an attendant or catholic—whatever the breed, whatever the creed matters not, whether not to the public official charged with the duty of serving the people. The humblest American citizen of full Negro blood is in the eyes of the law the full equal of the most powerful citizen of the purge Ango-Saxon descent. The public servant elected by the people, paid by the people, owes to the humblest citizen the same protection, the same treatment, recorded to the most powerful. Neither breed nor creed, neither culture nor vocation should determine the treatment accorded to a citizen by a servant. We are distressed that the President has allied himself with those who believe in the perpetuation of race prejudice and justify race passion. As a private servant every man has the right to determine his own course: as a public servant, the right to determine the obligation to treat with patience those who must book to the public office for the protection of the law. It is but a step in descent from the position taken by those public officers in Washington who segregate one race to the public office in a Southern state. The segregation of the African-American to the lower official as justification for his course. The mob of the South that lynches in the night is but a step further than the official order that segregates because of color in the day. taker free as long as he lived; and if Johnson won and Campbell died and furnish the best funeral possible.

ABILITY CAUSES RACE HATRED A novel explanation of the Russian dislike for the Jew has been given by Count Alexander Scherbatskoy, councillor of the Russian embassy in Washington. The count said that Russians objected to Jews because they were more capable than the Russians and not because they were of a different race and faith. “There is not much difference between the Jewish question in Russia and the Japanese question in California,” he declared. “The Californiaians know the Japs are more clever than they are. The Russians know that they can not compete with the Jews. Their fear of the Jews is based on economic considerations.” n who in the con- ge of his duty dares the world, with ignor- dgment, may con- nances of relatives and the hearts of but the sense of sweeter than the world, the counten- Statement to the American People by Mass Meeting Under Independent Equal Rights League at District of Columbia. Read by T. Thomas Fortune. We, citizens of the District of Columbia and of the United States, meet in mass meeting today, under the auspices of the National Independent Equal Rights League, to enter our emphatic protest against the pronounced tendency in American law and public opinion to draw the color line against us as American citizens, in most of the relations of life, and to appeal, first, to American people to "stand fast and adquit them as men," in fearless contention for freedom and the acceptance of the laws of the land, State and Federal, and secondly, we appeal to American and especially to the sons and daughters of the old Abolitionists and the soldiers "who gave their lives freely that we might have life more abundantly," to give us their sympathy and active support in the contention we are making for absolute justice, equally with others, in the making and enforcement of the laws, State and Federal, and against vicious public opinion and the present circumstance of race and color between citizens and citizens and Christians of Christ, all we being the Household of Faith, because the Nation has so decreed it. Federal Policy to Draw Color Line. We make this appeal at this time from the highest authority in the Nato Government to draw the color line, country denominate and denounce as sort of citizen it considered to be, for the sake of service, nor hold employments that sort of citizens, but that they must the Government departments and in of their working and eating, and other Government, such employment having competitive civil service examination color was the test of preferment. Refuse to Accept Segregation as Nato Don't The concession set up by those we insist complain of and protest at works are degrading and humiliating in its we do not accept, and which we do we will accept, as just to the government nowhere justified by the Federal Conf Faith, nor by the history of the per thousand years; and, with it, it is a tell all that we are unacceptable grading and humiliating, our nerver rather than blunted by the policy of by the present administration of the The questions involved are not only essentially political, and we believe as we do. Segregation Policy Will E We believe this Nation is passionate and that the issues of life and the peace of the people are judgment for or against the responses unrighteous policy of discriminating on account of race and color; a policy it adopted, extended indefinitely to the compose the national population. We make this appeal at this time because it has been ascertained by us from the highest authority in the Nation that it is the policy of the Federal Government to draw the color line, to make what the newspapers of the country denominate and denounce as "Jim Crow Government," in which one sort of citizen it considered to be, as Chief Taney declared it in 1856, "so far inferior" that they may not associate together in the same governmental service, not hold employment that place them in authority over another sort of citizen, nor segregate them in the segregated in the work places, in the Government department, and in other relations, the matter of their working and eating, and other relations, as employees of the Government, such employment having, for the most part, been obtained in competitive civil service examinations where actual merit and not race and color was the test of preferment. Refuse to Accept Segregation as Not Humiliating—Reflection to Say We Don't Feel It. The concession set up by those highest in authority that the segregation we justly complain of and protest against is not political in character and works no forfeiture of citizen rights, and is not supposed nor intended to be degrading and humiliating in its operations, is an interpretation which we do not accept, and which we do not believe fair-minded American citizens are under the government or fair to us, as such segregation is nowhere justified by the Federal Constitution or the Christian Faith, nor by the history of the persecuted Jews in Europe the thousand years; and, withal, it is a reflection upon our common humanity to tell us bluntly that we are incapable of feeling such segregation to be degrading and humiliating, our nervous sensitivities have been sharpened rather than blunted by the policy of segregation and negation of us practiced by the present administration of the Government during the past two years. The persons involved are not only political in character, but vitally and essentially political, and we believe the Nation will so construe them, even as we do. Segregation Policy Will Extend to Other Race Groups: We believe this Nation is passing through both a physical and spiritual crisis, and that the issues of life and death will be decided ultimately, when the people will be judged for or against the responsible Government at Washington in its unrighteous policy of discriminating against the citizenship of the country on account of race and color; a policy of discrimination that can, and will be enforced by the one hundred and one race groups that compose the national population. Appeal Against It to God and Our Fellow-Men. In conclusion we appeal from the announced policy and practices of our Government to the God who made us, and to our fellow citizens, who love justice and detest injustice, "the canker and the worm" that eat out the life of Nations, in the firm belief that we shall not appeal in vain. TROTTER'S SPECIFIC DENIAL OF INSOLEENCE TO PRESIDENT. Interview in Boston Globe of Nov. 17, 1914. William Monroe Trotter, whose remarks on segregation in Gove.nment departments stirred President Wilson at a hearing in the White House last afternoon, and, after denying anything offensive either in his speech or manner, told of the way in which the report of the hearing was given to the newspaperman, the President," said Mr. Trotter, "I told him I was very sorry if he still considered that I had offended him. The President smiled and said: "O, we'll call it all right." The newspaperman caused in Sec. Tumulty's room as to what we should say for the newspapers. I told the newspaper men briefly about the conference, merely describing it as a warm affair. White House when Mr. Tumulty called me back and said: "Trotter, you have violated every courtesy of the White House in quoting the President to the press." I told Mr. Tumulty that I had done so in ignorance of the rules, and apologized. He accepted my apology. Then I asked the newspaper not to publish what I told them, and they replied that Tumulty said he was satisfied and I left. White House Statement Issued. "The report of the conference was then given out from the White House. It seems very peculiar to me, after the President had told me everything she was right about, that I House statement could say that I House statement fended the President of the United States." *Did Not Lose Tempature or Catechize*; *I want to say,* he continued, "that neither in manner, language, tone nor in any other way was I discurteous, or insolent to President Wilson.* "My whole attitude was that of endeavoring, on the spur of the moment, to answer a piece of meaningful sophiscal advice, in succession, feeling a great responsibility to do so, I spoke with positiveness, deliberatness and directness, looking the President full in the eye. The president did not quit or catechize the President, and I did not attempt to debate with him. The difficulty did criminated against and segregated in of my race and to say that I should not be violated in violence and so represent it to my race. "Although it was a trying ordeal to listen to such a statement at length by the Chief Executive of the Nation, I was also the temper, much less lost my temper," DID THE PRESIDENT LOSE HIS HEAD? (From the Philadelphia Press.) It looks as though the result of the last election has got on the President's nerves and made him unreasonably irate. The count for the extreme sensitivity and quick resentment which he exhibited while W. M. Trotter, of Boston, as chairman of a delegation of Colored men undertook to show him that Colored employees were unfairly permitted to declare for segregation some of the executive departments. There is nothing in Mr. Trotter's remarks as reported which disclose any ground for the President'sresentance. He may have been too earnest, positive and aggressive to suit the President. He turned on him as he once before turned on the woman suffrage delegation and the president were not to his taste and drove the President into making the absurd statement that he was not at liberty to approve woman suffrage because it was not a democratic platform. He told Trotter that the Colored people were segregated in the departments to avoid friction. But there was no friction until Mr. McAdoo met and began to enforce in their departments the principle of the Jim Crow law. Negotiation practiced is wrong in principle because it is disagreeable and unfair to one class of public employees because it has been ascertained by us, that it is the policy of the Federal to make what the newspapers of the "Jim Crow Government," in which one as Chief Taney declared it in 1856, "so hate Humilitating in the same government place that in any other," another be segregated in the work places of the Railway Mail Service, in the matter or relations, as employees of a common g, for the most part, been obtained in us where actual merit and not race and not Humilitating—Reflection to Say We Feel It. highest in authority that the segregation against is not political in character and, and is not supposed nor intended to be segregated, is an interpretation which believe fair-minded American citizens not or fair to us, such segregation is institution, nor by our common institution executed Jews in Europe the past two reflection upon our common humanity to a feeling such segregation to be de-segregated, is an interpretation which believe fair-minded American citizens in the government in the past two years, and the Nation will so construct them, even extend to Other Race Groups. growth through both a physical and death will be decided ultimately, whenenced will be the desired way, to pronounce in the citizenship of the nation in its against the citizenship of the country in discrimination that can, and will be one hundred and one race groups that who have a right to be treated by their Government without discrimination. The race affected had a right to be heard in their own behalf and showed a proper spirit in going directly to their government in their grievance. We feel that the President has his head. He is certainly not so hard to handle these extempore statements, made under the irritation that so easily besets him as in his more studied deliverances which compel the admiration even of his political opponents and the public. In the falla of his reasoning character of the policy he is commending. THE COLOR LINE VEXES THE PRESIDENT. (From New York Evening Mail.) It is hard to discover, in the rather fully published reports, any sufficient reason for the President's resentment toward him to abandon the prior to persuade him to abandon the policy of several Cabinet officers in drawing the color line in the Federal departments. The subject under discussion was the solution of the customs of fifty years ago, the spike in the institution in establishing "Jim Crow" government. If the spokesman of the Egal Rights League waxed warm in urging the cause of his race, it is not wondered at. That he overstepped the bounds of propriety is not shown. That the President was vexed is all that appears in the published record. If any adequate reason for his vexation had been supplied by Mr. Trott, would surely have been disclosed. That there was reason for the President's ill temper is quite true, but it was supplied by the Cabinet members who were responsible for the narrow-minded, Colored employees from white iphthalmologists. The incident recalls the similar vexation shown by the President when he abruptly dismissed an equal suffrage candidate, and the ground that he could not "submit to cross-examination." When a man is right, he usually will listen to the other side; when he knows he is wrong, he is very likely to fly off the handle. TELEGRAM TO PRESIDENT WILSON BY DR. W. SINCLAIR, UNABLE TO BE PRESENT WITH DELEGATION. Hon Woodrow Wilson Unavoidable circumstances make it impracticable for me to join the delegation as field secretary of the constitution league of the United States, and I will be joined by you on Thursday, the 12th inst., invoking your intervention against the segregation of government employees at Washington or elsewhere on the ground of race or color. I respect the principles of the spirit and legacy of the institution of the United States, forces hardships and degradations of Colored employees, undermines civilization, is subversive of American institutions, contravenes every principle of righteousness and justice and is a violation of the religion. Segregation represents not the ideals of freedom but the ideals of slavery.

Defective Page Leading Daily Newspapers of the Country Rebuke the President for Condoning the Jim Crow Policy of the Southern Members of His Cabinet. NO JIM-CROW GOVERNMENT No President ever suffered more from the foolish indictment of bers of his Cabinet than Mr. Wilson. He had a further illustration of it yesterday in his unfortunate interview with a delegation of colored men to protest against the segregation of races in Government departments. The President should have foreseen this unfortunate issue when Mr. McAdoo and Mr. Burleson were carrying democratic government. Mr. Wilson, the committee that there had been no discrimination in the comforts and surroundings of the colored clerks, but explained that "he had been informed that the negotiation negotiation had been started to avoid friction among the races, and not with the object of injuring the colored men." The President failed to explain, nevertheless why no such rule had been considered. Mr. Wilson and Mr. McAdoo got into the Cabinet. For nearly half a century white clerks and colored clerks have worked side by side in the departments of Washington, under republican and democratic presidents. The World Bank has failed to about Washington affairs, but the first it ever heard of this alleged friction to which Mr. Wilson refers was when Mr. McAdoo began his Jim-Crow proceedings in the Treasury Department. The president thinks that this is not a problem of wrong. Anything that is unjust, discriminating, and un-American in government is certain to be a political question. Servants of the United States Government, regardless of race or color. For several years a colored clerk was the only Revenue in New York. He never found it necessary to segregate the white employees of his department to prevent "friction"; yet he would have had quite as much right to do so as Mr. McAdoo had to segregate the colored employees of the Treasury in Washington. While the Democrats of the country have been trying to solve certain great problems of government, a few Southern members of the Cabinet have been allowed to exploit their petty prejudice at the expense of the party's reputation for exact justice. Whether the President thinks so or not, the segregation rule was promulgated as a deliberate discrimination against unemployed employees. Worse still, a small, mean, petty discrimination, and Mr. Wilson ought to have set his heel upon this presumptuous Jim-Crow government the moment it was established. He ought to set his heel upon it now. It is great to his administration and to the great political principles which he represents. THE PRESIDENT AND SEGREGATION. {From the New York Evening Post.} It is a sad blot upon the Wilson Administration that it has tolerated, nay, drawn the color one, without real cause, save as Mr. Trotter truthfully says, that the racial antipathies of Messrs. Burke and McAdoo. For an Administration which talks about a New Freedom and boasts of having bestowed a new liberty upon business men, not only to be blind to the wrongs of to millions of American citizens, but to be blind to the wrongs of Mr. Wilson can feel keenly for the governmental wrongs of the "submerged 85 per cent" of the people of Mexico, of whom so many are Indians and of a mixed parentage, but he has said a really sympathetic word about the millions in the South who are without voice in their own government. Again, Mr. Wilson is reported to have resented Mr. Trotter's statement that if this discrimination were not ended, the Afro-Americans who voted to abolish the ticket, and to have declared that this was "political blackmail." But this is the time-honored American way of showing disapproval of an elective official's conduct. When Mr. Wilson he declared: "Should I become President of the United States, they (the colored people) may count upon me for absolute fair dealing and for everything by which I could assist in ad-hoc action in the United States. On the strength of this many colored people and their white friends advocated Mr. Wilson's cause, who would rather have cut off hands if he had done so son if he had done that he was intended to draw the color line in the departments upon the excuse that there is a certain point in the relations of the races for friction must be made in a fair dealing nor advancing their cause, but putting it back, because it sets the stamp of governmental approval upon color prejudice. To expect after this that the problem can be solved, as Mr. Wilson is quoted as urging, is to expect the impossible. With Mr. Wilson's feelings as to the ultimate solution of the race problem, we are not today concerned. He may or may not have a constructive view of the problem, but simply whether a hateful East Indian castle shall be established in Washing- ton or not. We had supposed, after the investigations of last winter, that the vicious policy had been checked; we understood that it was to be abalienated by numerous instances the Jim-Growing team had been stopped. The more discouraging is it to find the President apparently upholding what the World just calls the "foolish indiscretions of members of his Cabinet." There was no genesis to this, and conditions in Washington, Colored and employees had worked side by side for fifty years. Some of them had been appointed by Grover Cleveland—one of his appointees to high place beware of the Fifty-fifth rottar, a veteran of the Fifty-fifth. But the Wilson Administration went out of its way to create the issue it now deplores, and cannot see its way clear to admitting its mistake and re-asserting to the only defensible position of absolute equality in the Government service. The way to deal with race prejudice in such matters is not to enhance it by yielding, but resolutely to conceive it with a refusal to give in. It is often that a prejudice fades away in a given situation, and itself wholly blocked. It is even more surprising how frequently it is merely a state of wind. Often there is no objection whatever to the presence of colored people on the most familiar streets, but it is clearly stamped as menial; let there be diligently aspire to equal privileges, and those same people become at once too offensive to be permitted to breathe the same atmosphere. The situation in Washington would be restored in a twentieth-century, absolutely satisfactory status; if the authority were simply to lay down the law that there was going to be a square deal for everybody in the departments without the slightest displeasure, then can be only one class of public citizens—all to be treated with courtesy, consideration, and absolute justice. THE PRESIDENT AND SEGREGA TION. (From The Indianapolis News.) The government, which makes laws for all, makes sure all sit at all, summons all alike to its office, time of war, cannot rightly make such distinctions. When men and women enter the public service they have to conform to that principle. No one is competent to enter it, but having made his choice he should comply with the conditions of his employment. The job is not wholly economic, as Mr. Wilson seemed to think it was—it is political as well, not in the narrow partisan, but in the broad sense. The people of the United States as a whole would oppose the government, but of any thing resembling the Jim Crow. THE PRESIDENT AND THE AFRO-AMERICAN. (From the Chicago Tribune.) We are not ready to concede that any state has leadership less standing under the law, but under the south wishes to make any such issue as this it will find that the north, where there is prejudice, is nevertheless realess when as a part of the nation it is asked to declare that the nation it is asked to declare is a piece of hypocrisy and does not apply where it is inconvenient. DR. SPINGARN'S SECOND TOUR Well-Known White Advocate of Justice to Tour Country Again. Dr. J. E. Spingarn, chairman of the board of directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and one of the most consistent white advocates of justice and equality, will make a second tour of the country in the interests of the cause of our race. It will be remembered that last January he addressed meetings in Denver, Topeka, St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Cleveland, attracting very large audiences wherever he went, and nearly everywhere winning wide publicity in the city for the cause of justice to the Negro. Dr. Spriarnn will speak at Wilmington, Delaware, on November 22nd, at Howard University, Washington, D.C. on November 23rd, and at Harrisburg, Pa. on November 24th. His main tour, which will include the next January, and he then enlisted in Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Dayton, Columbus, Springfield, St. Joseph, Omaha, Des Moines, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Milwaukee, and other cities. He hopes by succeeding tours to cover every of the country and to carry his burden in his work for the whole nation. All those who are interested in his coming tour, which like all his other work for our race is carried on entirely at his own expense, can obtain further information from the National Association for the National Association for the vancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Dr. Spingarn was for twelve years Professor of Comparative Literature in Columbia University, New York, and for two years in international reputation. He brings to this cause not only learning and ripe scholarship, but eloquence, practical experience, and a passionate sincerity, which he has developed years ago, and for the last ten years he has given uniting devotion to the cause of black folk. He is a man of independent means, who has never been a slave. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of which he is chairman, has a membership of about 5,000, with branches in New York, Chicago, and its official organ, "The Crisis," published under its direction, a circulation of over 25,000 a month. Among its other directors are Miss M. E. Millard, Rev. John Haynes, Dr. William H. H. Edward Russell, Archibald H. Grimke of Washington, Moorfield Storey of Villard, and Oswald Garrison Rivon, John E. M. Millard, Rev. John Haynes, Dr. William H. Edward Russell, Miss Lillian D.

RAGLAND A BRIDE OF LESS THAN TWELVE WEEKS STRICKEN BY THE GRIM MONSTER, Mrs, Mary E, Ragland, Married Tues- day September 29th, at Memorial Baptist Church, Has her Funeral in the same place Suriday, December 20th. One of the saddest occurrences that has happened in our midst was the death of Mrs. Mary E. Ragland in less than twelve weeks after marriage Never before has such a thing been known of usre. It will be remembered that the first grand wedding solemnized in Memorial Baptist Church was that of Mr. Archie R. Ragland and Miss Mary &. Fletcher, on the evening of Tuesday, September 29th. It was a grand affair and the many friends of the bride, who was a general favorite in this community, Were happy over the thought that she had secured a loving husband and her future looked bright and rosy. But the uncertaintty of life has seldom been more painfully impressed upon us; for in less than three months she lay cold in death before the same sacred altar where she hed so proudly lighted her troth to the man of her choice. “Verily, in the midst of fe we are in death.” ‘The wedding was a notable one, and no less so was the funeral of the young bride. It was the first. automobile funeral among us, and was quite im- pressive in every way. ‘The deceased belonged to the D. Y. W. Y. K. club the members of which Were quite prominent at her wedding and they acted as:honorary pallbearers at her funeral, and they made an im- pressive appearance as they entered the church each clad in white and bearing a floral emblem, ‘The deceased was a member of Cor- i | Co go Bee gs th. we cece ih MRS WARYRLESSHES Baca: inthian Temple S. M. T. and her funeral was under its auspices the members of the temple being present in full regalia, The funeral services began at 2:30 o'clock the church being filled with the friends of the deceased, The services were conducted by Rev. E. H. MeDonald who took for his text Psalms LXXXIX-47 “Remember how short my time is.” | The sermon was very impressive ‘and was closed by Rev. MeDonald with the reading of following obituary, com- pared by himself: Mary E. Fletcher Ragland beloved wife of Archie R. Ragland and niece of Mrs. Della Beard-Williams was born in Bowling Green, Ky., November 29th, 1888, When but a little girl of 9 years she made a profession of religion and was baptized into the fellowship of the State Street Baptist Church by Rev. Fishback of which Rev. Dr. Robert Mitchell is now pastor. She was secretary of the Sunday School also of the B. Y. P. U. both of which offices she resigned on coming to St. Paul. On coming to this clty, she brought Christ with her she came to this city Dec. 28th 1907 and united as @ Watch-care member of Pilgrim Baptist Church, she served as secre- tary in Pilgrim Sunday School. She has always been an active Christian youns girl earnest, faithful and sweet, gentle and modest she found her way into the hearts of all she came in con- tact with always ready to do some- thing, anything for Christ her Master she knew not that word No Happiest when busy cheering the hearts of others with a smile; like Mary of sacred scripture she ‘chose the good part, She was her Aunt's companion, she was not gushing in manners but quiet; not boisterous, but gentle, not bold,’ but retiring, retreating. When Memorial Church’ was organized she was one of its charter members; she was chosen secretary of the Sunday School and assistant financial secretary of the church. On Sept. 29th she came ‘own this aisle and met her beloved husband at this altar and they were united in holy matrimony and passed out that aisle upon his arm, to their home. Who can understand it, why? Oh Why should she be brought here before this altar lifeless today, lying silently where she once stood only a few short weeks ago. Hark! hark! hear what Jesus saith. “What I do thou knowest not now, but, thou shalt know hereafter.” “Blind unbelief will be sure to err and scan His work in vain, God is His own interpreter, and’ He will make it plain.” She wrought well in these short 17 years of her life she walked with Christ, her illness was of short duration it’ was fraught with patience for she knew in whom she had _— trusted. God's messengers Moly Angels came to escort her home, she saw them iast Tuesday she told us, that they had come. See them! See them! I am going to Heaven to nve with Jesus. Back, back to the shining Courts above the Heavenly angels went to open the Pearly Gates to let-her pass through, and at 3:40 P.M. Thursday she passed into the “Beulah Land’ leaving to mourn her loss a loving husband a devoted aunt, uncle, grand mother, step-grand father, cousins Mr. and Mrs. Black, ana Mrs, Crawford and many friends.

Resolutions by Memorial Baptist Chureh, Whereas, God, in His all-wise provi- dence has'seen’fit to call from labor to reward our beloved Assistant Fin- ancial Secretary Mrs. Mary Fletcher- Ragland and, Whereas, She has labored faithfully, earnestly," honestly and lovingly among us, at all times doing her full duty, and, Whereas, Being @ charter member of Memorial Baptist Church, Be it Resolved, That with sad hearts, and loving memory of the many wvuv: ities of the deceased, we bow in humble submission to Him, who made’ us in His own imaxe; to one who orders our destinies, whether we be’ old or young. ‘Trusting us that we shall be united in one great grand church above, where we with her shall sing His eternal praises forever, for we know there shall be no more night there, no sad partings.

The Providence Journal published the following report: That no distinction because of race or sect will be considered in receiving applications for membership in the Providence Young Men's Christian Association was the decision reached by the board of directors of that institution at a meeting held last evening. This action was taken by the directors because of objections from some persons to the admission of Colored men to membership in the organization and particularly in the many advantages offered by the new building, so they became aware of the objection and been offered the matter was taken up by different colored organizations and others interested and the directors were urged to take action. Following is a statement given out by the directors after last evening's meeting: The Note. "The Providence Young Men's Christian Association for more than 60 years has served the young men and boys of our city in a broad and liberal spirit, making no distinction in receiving applications for membership because of race or sect.

Sir: The interview of William Munroe Trotter and the delegation of colored gentlemen with the President of the United States brings forward again the burning question of the treatment of colored civil servants in Washington. The whole incident has been analyzed by the colored people of this country feel the injustice which Mr. Wilson's government has inflicted upon them and still inflicts. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has been fighting segregation in federal departments ever since the first rumor of it was made public. Over a year ago an investigator was sent to Washington and a report printed. Since that time the investigation has been associated has kept in close touch with the local situation, and on one occasion this representative appeared before the civil service committee and helped kill the bill of Edwards of Georgia and Aswell of Louisiana making segregation legal throughout the federal civil service. Much of the segregation has disappeared. In the midst of the postoffice in Washington was abolished all the colored men employed lost their positions, but through the intervention of this association three THE FLOU A.

We therefore believe it is sufficient for this board to declare that no reason exists for any change in the principles which have heretofore governed the association in its requirements for membership." And we demand Mr. Hawkins resignation, even seems to us that if Mr. Hawkins could correspond to the lines he would send in his resignation and not wait until it was asked for. We hope that he will remember that he is in Providence and not in the South nor Southwest; now let the board of directors exact of Mr. Hawkins an explanation of his actions which has caused them to be held up to the ridicule of the world. This was one of the times when the Colored people were united in an endeavor to secure each credit for their united stand. They are very imbubant over the victory. The fight was led by Rev. J. H. Wiley and Rev. S. W. Smith for the New England Suffrage League and Mr. J. C. Minkins, Rev. J. Harrison and Dr. Robinson for the N. A. A. C. P. branch. We have already renewed our membership. We hope that every leader of the Guardians will read the letter from the pen of M. E. L. Sugen, a white man, to the Providence Sunday Journal and see if you think that all our friends are dead. We wish to say to those who live in towns and cities where segregation is proposed, fight it with all your might and if you need any points we will gladly give you the benefit of our experience here. Respectfully, S. W. SMITH. of the bureau were reinstated. When the bureau of engraving and printing moved to its new quarters it was the original idea to segregate colored and white people throughout the entire building, but through the efforts of this association there is no segregation in the lunchrooms or on the roof garden. Segregation, nevertheless, must be just as the Treasury, and possibly here and there in a small degree in other places. It still remains true that for the first time in half century a President of the United States and distinguished members of his Cabinet have deemed it necessary for the peace and quiet of these United States that clerks in the federal service, having passed the same examinations, must have the same rate of pay, must be separated in their work if the ancestors of any of them had a drop of Nregro blood. In some cases the "colored" clerks have been so white in appearance that the officials themselves have made mistakes in classifying them. In other cases clerks of all colors have protested against the attempted separation of the separation has caused humiliation and inconvenience and added cost. J. E.
