It would also afford a fruitful source for the collection of data upon a wide range of subjects, the importance of which cannot be overestimated." Replying to Dr. Bentley, Dr. C. B. Rohland dissented, fearing that the public would not take kindly to dental examinations in public schools. Fortunately Dr. Rohland's fears were not well grounded. The public has taken kindly to public school dental examinations, and the spiritized work of the profession in this field is fully appreciated and approved by the masses. Two years later the Odontographic society, at the suggestion of Dr. Bentley, instituted an investigation into the condition of the mouths and teeth of the children of the public schools. One year later Dr. Bentley submitted his report, which was the basis of future MOOL DANGER. Race Prejudice, Says the Very Tribune. Thoughtful Col- ers Cry Out.

The division of classes, or races, if you please, in so called public schools is not only unfair to the tax payer, white and colored alike, because it is bound in due season to increase their burdens, but it also gives an impetus to race prejudices. More Prejudice Where Schools Separate. The intelligent colored citizen travels and observes, that in every city where the separate school system is in vogue, race hatred has grown apace. Doubtless intelligent white citizens know this to be true and are anxious to do everything in their power to encourage the growth of race hatred, hence are desirous of adding any feature in the public school curriculum that tends toward that end. Leads to Degrading of Colored Curriculum. Whether or not the system begun in this city in 1881, when the law enforcing the creation of mixed schools was passed, has been a success or failure after an experiment of a quarter of a century seems not to be the question, but rather it seems to be the thought of the school authorities to fit the colored boy and girl for work, as they now exceedingly difficult it is for the colored youth after graduation to obtain, in the case of trade, such occupational relation to so cleft as will give them a chance to earn a livelihood. --- VOL. 31.

Awake, Thou that sleepest I Chicago.—One of the most striking figures at the recent golden anniversary of the Illinois Dental society, held at Hotel La Salle in this city, was Dr. Charles E. Bentley, who has by his ability and skill as a practitioner won a place in the front ranks of his profession. Born in Ohio and educated in the public schools, intermediate and high, of his native city, Cincinnati, Dr. Bentley moved to Chicago, where he completed his education at Northwestern university and was graduated in 1887 from the Chicago College of Dental Surgery with the degree of doctor of dental surgery. He at once entered upon the practice of his profession in his new home, giving all of his spare time to his studies and experiments. He soon became so proficient that his fame spread abroad, and patients came from near and far to get the benefit of his skillful manipulations. He was one of the first dentists to use hypnotic suggestion for the alleviation of pain, and this added greatly to his success. At the meeting of the Illinois Dental society held in 1896 Dr. Bentley read a paper on "New Outlooks In Dentistry," in which he made the following sur- At the Thomas Durham Public School, Sixteenth and Lombard streets the largest segregated school in this city, it has been definitely settled that the introduction of vocational training for at least 400 of the 1200 pupils that attend that school will begin next January. If the experiment succeeds a similar course will in all probability for in each of the 14 separate schools throughout the city. Majority of Colored See Whites Are Increasing the Separate System. While the gradual return of the distinctive segregated schools in this city seems inevitable, there seems to be a growing sentiment, nevertheless, the part of a large majority of colored citizens in opposition to the continual growth. Blow at Higher Education in North. THEY VIEW IT WITH ALARM and many regard the proposed innovation of vocational training as a direct blow at the aspiration for higher education and a more general acceptance by the University of Dr. Booker T. Washington's idea that industrial education is best for at least the next century. The intelligent people of color know that separate schools are breeders of race prejudice; that such schools serve to create a spirit of disrespect in the mind of one class for the other.

He numbers among his patients m work along this line, and today dental examinations are being made in nearly all of the public schools of the country. If priority of action counts for anything Dr. Bentley is the father of oral hygiene, which nowadays claims so much public and professional attention. The Odontographic society of Chicago was organized by Dr. Bentley in 1888, and he was elected its first president. In 1903 the society gave what was practically a great dental congress. There were 3,000 members of the profession and 1,000 dental students in attendance. The real soul of the great gathering was Dr. C. E. Bentley, who by his devotion and painstaking efforts made it a success. He has been a liberal contributor to the literature of both medicine and dentistry, and his papers, which have been read before state, national and international dental societies, have always merited the highest praise. Dr. Bentley is one of the few dentists who have been successful in the treatment of pyorrhea, the most difficult affection with which the profession has to contend. The manipulation of the instruments requires the greatest manual dexterity and delicate THE SOUT TH THE SOUTH J. G. Woodward, mayor of Attica, Ga., speaking what was on his mind at the Dixie day celebration of the San Francisco exposition, gave expression to the identical thought that we knew would prevail in the state which permitted the murder of Leo M. Frank. Mr. Woodward, exalted by the knowledge that the freemen of his commonwealth had arisen against the authority of the commonwealth gave his approval to the act. He spoke as we expect misguided southerners to speak. They have more rhapsody for southern blood and the sanctity of southern women than would be needed by a nation of Don Quixotes, but they thoroughly lack the idealism and the continence of the Spanish don whose language they feebly imitate. He meant what he said. They are content to talk about it. The north, where it is more ordered ways and its faulty but better civilization, thinks more and talks less of the sanctity of women than the rhetorical south. What the South needs is less rhetoric and more work. Southerners already have protested that The Tribune is vindictive and intellett, unjust and malignant in its abuse of a whole section of the country for the work of twenty-five men. The answer is that the work of the twenty-five has the approval of the voting and controlling populace. The answer is that the twenty-five did --- --- Turn again our captivity, O Lord! Hear us, O heavenly Father! CHARLES E. BENTLEY, D. D. S. (From the Chicago Tribune.) what the people of Georgia and the people of the South wanted done, and did what the people of the South tolerate, defend, and advocate. The South needs to feel that its code of conduct is so primitive and so brutal that it has involved the whole country in disrepute. It has made the American nation stand in world opinion for inhuman burning of convicted or suspected persons, for passions which cannot find expression nowadays among savages. The South needs a brutal, uncompromising, even unjust denunciation. It needs one which will not even consider the South's tremendous limitations. It needs one which will not stop to weigh and take account of causes, but which will go directly to the results and treat those results as if they had no explicable cause. What the South needs is a tongue lashming and punished tongue lashing of the most violent kind. It needs to feel isolated from the respect of the nation which is compromised by the acts it defends. We do not say that the North is free from the spirit which dares up in the South. We know it is not free. The North is able to show an act of violence for every one exhibited in the South, but the North does not condene them nor defend them, and it does endeavor to get at the causes which produce them. The South needs every bitter word his patients many of the wealthiest and most prominent citizens of the country and is one of the dozen or so Chicago dentists who count their annual incomes in five figures. In late years Dr. Bentley has attained great prominence in civic affairs, and his advice is eagerly sought by those who are endeavoring to better the conditions of humanity in general. For more than twenty years he has been secretary of Provident hospital. He was first president of the Equal Opportunity league of Chicago. He is a charter member of the directorate of the National Association For the Advancement of the Colored People, an organization which includes some of the most prominent people of the country in its membership. He has the gift of oratory and is a forceful, logical and convincing speaker. In 1898 Dr. Bentley was married to Miss Florence Lewis, who was for many years the literary editor of the Philadelphia Daily Press, a woman of rare attainments, and their married life has been very happy. In October, 1914, Dr. Bentley, at the special invitation of the Winnebago County (III.) Dental so which can be said against it. It needs to know that when it parades the sanctity of its women it is making a display of something the rest of the nation assumes and holds too high to spend useless words upon. Action, not eloquence, is demanded of the South. The need is that it feel its disgrace and correct so far as is humanly possible the causes of bad government and of bad thought which are expressed in the conditions it tolerates. We are not ignoring the great problem which it has in the Negro. We simply assert that the South has permitted its problem to work out to the utter confusion of its governmental agencies and the confusion of its political thought. It must, if it is to rehabilitate and regenerate itself, correct its opinion and stop exhausting itself in rhetoric by act. It must put community lawfulness superior to individual lawlessness. It is a concern of the nation that the southern states should re-establish themselves as respected units in a union. And if nothing but abuse can bring them to a realization that their ways are unworthy of their traditions and of the history of the American regimen then the abuse ought to be given them the tongue of the abuser is tired, even if the abuser titles of the abused cannot be hurt and the sense of the abused aroused.

The same afternoon, at the request of the board of education, he addressed 1,000 stu- dents of the Rockford high school on "Paul Laurence Dunbar." Dr. Bentley's new dental offices are located in the Marshall Field building, overlooking Lake Michigan, where on clear days one may look across the lake to the Michigan and Indiana shores. The dental appliances in the offices are complete in every detail. A man of learning, polished in manner, having entree to the highest social circles and being in touch with many people of great influence, he has been able to do effective work in fighting prejudice against the colored people. Single handed and alone he has nipped many obnoxious schemes in the bud. Many wrongs have been righted effectively, but quietly and without any brass band accompaniment. When anything great in the repression of race prejudice has been accomplished in Illinois and people are wondering how it was done the chances are ten to one that Dr. Bentley is the man who did it.

He thinks American, feels American, acts American and demands and receives treatment as an American. He believes that all men born in America are Americans and is opposed to the use of the word "Negro" to describe the colored people of the country. He is convinced that it is not logical and its use is imical to the welfare of the republic. He looks forward to the day when there will be no German-Americans or French-Americans or Italian-Americans or Afro-Americans or any other hyphenated variety and when all racial distinctions shall have disappeared. When the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People was organized it was largely due to his efforts that the word "Negro" was not made a part of the official title of the organization. His career should be an inspiration to every colored youth. It teaches the lesson that it is not necessary, that it is even shortsighted and, to limit one's activities to the boundaries of the color line.

Se ANNIVERSARY OF ATLANTA'S @HAME. ‘The recent lynching of Leo Frank, a Jew, in Georgia, has aroused the country more than the murders of thousands of colored people in the South during the past twenty years. But only nine years have passed since Atlanta, Georgia, was the scene of one of the most uncalled for and Vloodiest riots ever recorded in his- tory. Colored men and women were ruthlessly slaughtered because of race hatred; not a single one killed had deen guilty of any crime whatever. ‘The massacre was caused by the in- cendiary editorials of the Atlanta News and Journal, owned by Hoke ‘Smith, since Governor of Georgia and now United States senator from that state, In his gubernatorial canvass Smith also made incendiary speeches incit- ing the Caucasians against colored peo- ple and demanding that the race be distranchised. Senator Hoke Smith is sald to be the author of the jim crow policy of the present administration and he has the active support of Vardaman, Het. Win and nearly every Southerner in Congress.

CHARITY MAKE=s COWARDS. “Charity makes for slaves, cowards and sycophants,” said “Mother Jones” of Colorado mine field tame, recently. Her words are true, Men cheat their employes out of what is their just due and become rich and when they have accumulated mil Mons they pose as “philanthropists” and endeavor to perpetuate their names by giving money for libraries or “charities,” or Christian (7) asso- lations, Instead of being great philanthopists, these men, in many cases, are simply thieves who really ought to be in prison for having robbed their fellow men. No class has suffered more from the “philanthropies” of these rich tnieves than the colored people and their ne. tarious work has been alded by so called colored leaders who have taken the role of public ’“mendicants and have begged for money to organize jimerow institutions and thus prevent their own class from securing thelr rights as American citizens, The product of the segregated insti tution {s usually a crop of young col ored people with slavish instincts; cringing cowards, servile sycophants. Great God deliver. the people trom such charity and give them justice, It is the consensus of opinion of the leading thinkers of the world that there should be no illegitimate chil- dren, that is, that babies should be declared legitimate by the state, even if born out of wedlock. A new law was recently passed by ‘Norway, giving the so-called illegiti- mate child a right to his father’s name, ‘The expenses of its rearing are dl- vided between fathei and mother in Proportion to their ability to pay, the basis to be the financial status of the wealthier parent. And the illegitimate Norwegian child is an helr to the father’s property and on equal terms with the children born in marriage. Nature knows nothing of illegit- imacy; she cares naught for marriage certificates and there is no resson why the innocent babe should be de- graded and ostracized because of the sins of its parents. Such a law would be especially valu- able in the South where wealthy Cau- casians are the fathers and mothers of many children of colored women and men. The equal inheritance feat- ure would give to thousands of colored children their just share in many great estates and would also give them their proper social status. ‘THE HYPHENATED AMERICAN. | Oswald Garrison Villard’s recent Speech against hyphenated American. ism was a telling one. ‘Mr. Villard was himself born on German soil and of a German father, yet he is amazed at the divided citt zenship of some Americans of German ancestry. He referred to Carl Schurz, and his true Americanism and sald “What would amaze him more than to find unnumbered Germans who, Ike him- self, come to this country to escape the very militaristic autocracy they now uphold, today, denouncing the nation that adopted and sheltered and fed and clothed them.” Other races have shown strong tendencles to form distinct bodies, Mr. Villard said, but the German Propaganda is, so far, the most ex- tensive. He then asked it it were true, as contended, that. the German Kultur jand political system were superior to the scheme of- life and government in America, why the hordes who have foc here did not go to Germany instead. Mr, Villard said, that to allow na. tionalistie groups to develop in this country such as they have in Austria Hungary would be most disastrous. He said, such a proposal was “un. thinkable to a true minded American.” For many year it has been the custom to treat colored people as aliens, although they are more than ninety-nine per cent of American birth; and there is a growing ten- dency among the colored people to regard themselves as allens. This 1s being, encouraged by a class of lead- jers who call theméelves “Negroes” and yell about “Negro Kultur” al though they have not more than half and often ess than one-eighth of Negro blood. Such men ought to stop the “Negro” propaganda and be Americans and demand justice be- cause they are Americans and not by the false assertion that they are “Negroes.” They should not have any rights: as “Negroes” but every right of an American citizen should be and will be accorded them, it they fight. for their rights as American citizens by right of birth. - THANKS, GOV. WILLIS. Gov. Frank Willis of Ohio, deserves the thanks of the colored people of the country for ordering the State Medical Board to abolish the require- ment that applicants for Ncénses to practice certain branches of surgery must state whether they are “white” of “colored” ang furnish photographs. The plan of compelling applicants to furnish photographs was put into the national civil service rules to hinder the appointment of colored People and Jews to places in the gov- ernment service, even after they had passed the required tests, Prejudiced heads of bureaus look at the photos and if it 19 apparent that the appll cant belongs to either of the pros cribed classes he is promptly rejected. The citizens of this country are Americans and that one word ought to be a suffleent description under any and all circumstances and neither the national nor state governments have any right to inquire whether he is white, colored, redheaded, baldheaded or pigeontoed, or whether he has corns on his feet or a wart on his nose. TINSEL CHIVALRY. ‘The Southern Caucasians are con- tinually yelling about their chivalrous regard for women and their determin: ation to protect females from assaults ete., but in view of many happenings in the Southland it is evident, that that thelr chivalry fs of the tinsel variety. Last year a Caucasian went into the home of a respectable colored woman in Wagoner, Okla, and attempted to assault her, but was shot by the woman before he succeeded. When the chivalrous Oklahomans heard of the happening, the colored woman who killed the white man in protect: ing her virtue was lynched by an “orderly mob of the best citizens.” In another Southern state recently, @ colored man was walking along the street with his sweetheart when a white man made an insulting remari about her. The colored man promptly killed the white man and a few hours later he was lynched by a mob of “leading citizens.” The chivalrous men of Georgia have allowed a law fixing the age of consent for girls 10 years, to stand upon the statute boks, and in nearly every Southern state it is lower than it ought to be. The Southern boast about defending the honor of women is a LIB. South- ern chivalry is tinsel. MAY WOE AND BITTERNESS AT- TEND THEM. “or more than a quarter of the cen- tury the editor of THE APPEAL has struggled to give the colored people lof the West a newspaper which would defend their rights. A complete file has been preserved and the editor is Proud to say that not a single false note has been sounded. THE AP PEAL has always advised its readers never to relinquish a civil right and to aid their Southern brethren to re gain the .many rights which have [slipped away because of the activities Jot jim crow propagandists, THE APPEAL has never been ¢ profitable business proposition in it self, the editor has made his living du Jot his Job printing office and from Jother sources of income, but he feel: jthat he has done something to aid jthe colored people and the conscious Iness of having fought for the right, in J measure, compensates him for the ears of hard work and the expenditure Jot thousands of dollars The editor of THE APPEAL is « father and the one thing he has en deavored to impress upon the minds Jof his children is self respect, especial ly as it relates to demanding all the Fights of American citizenship. He is a poor man and has little of this }world’s goods to bequeath them, but if they have learned thelr lesson well jand will suffer hardships and priva. tions and even prefer to die rather ‘than degrade their souls by willingly faccepting any treatment which is in lany way inferlor to that accorded to other Americans, the editor will pass into the Great Beyond happy in the thought that he has left his offspring a priceless heritage. The editor of THE APPEAL would rather see all of his children in their graves than to feel that they will ever even in thelr minds consider the pro- Position of becoming jim crowists and it they are ever willing to give up liberty and become servile sycophants, may woe and bitterness come to them, as it should, to everyone who sells his birth tight. CONDONING.COLORED CURS, THE APPEAL approves of every }word of the reprinted editorial from the Chicago ‘Tribune and wishes to add a few words of excoriation of the contemptible colored curs who contin- ually praise the southern people and condone many of their infamous acts. It is not only contemptible but crim- inal. The extension of race prejudice in the North has been greatly aided by these fends in human form who have been paid in cash or the appella- tion of “good negro” to laud the brut- al, barbarous, unhuman, unchristian un-American South. When the Georgia senate recently passed a Jaw forbidding white persons to teach colored pupils some of these human skunks rushed into print to de- fend the action, saying that it would benefit the colored man. ‘The white Georgians who burn and hang and legislate against their col- ored fellow citizens are saints when compared with, colored men who con- done thelr crimes. SEGGREGATION BY CENSUS. “Negroes in the United States,” ts the title of a pamphlet gotten out by the United States Census Bureau. The title 1s misleading, for there are only 473 real Africans in the United States, according to the Census, that is Ne- , Sroes born in Africa. "It is wrong, unjust and un-American for the government to segregate its clerks by color in the Departments in Washington, and it is also wrong, un-| Just and un-American for the govern- ment to issue a separate and inaccu- rate Census Bulletin as it has done in the case of the bulletin, “Negroes in the United States.” The United States assumes that a Sroup of about 10,000,000 people are Negroes and proceeds to so classity them. More than ninety-nine per cent of the persons so classified were born in America of American parents, and thelr parents were Americans and so on back for ten generations. Ita man whose ancestors for many Senerations is not an American, who fs entitled to the name? If a white man can become an American in two generations, why should a person of any other color born in this country fail to “arrive” in the same space of time? The name “Negro” applied to a Sroup of citizens in this country is in- accurate, because it does not include forty or fifty million other Americans who have more or less Negro blood. The expression “pure race” is amyth So all great writers on ractal questions agree, ‘The mixing of bloods in this country ‘has gone so far that it ts impossible to determine with any degree of accu- racy who has Negro blood and who has not, and for the Government to Select about 10,000,000 people and say that they are “Negroes,” and by that act to ald in making them a separate treatment in church and state, 1s to perpetrate.a great wrong, It is an infamous thing for the gov- ernment of this great republic to draw the color line in any way. In a re- Public every citizen should have ex actly the same status so far as the government is concerned, ‘There is no reason why a Democra- ey should attempt to classify its cit- fens by their blood.” All persons born in this country should be con- sidered Americans without any pre- fixes or suffixes. | WILLIAM MONROE. TROTTER, The unceasing warfare against in- Justice and wrong which has been waged by William Monroe ‘Trotter, editor of the Boston Guardian, ought to win for him a warm spot in the heart of every right thinking human being. With his pen and tongue, he has done much to quicken the moral fibre of the colored people and they are learning the lesson that sacrifices Must be made, if they would win the Sreat battle for civil and political rights, There are no frills and furbelows about William Monroe Trotter. He is @ plain, earnest, honest, upright man, who has decided to give up wealth, oficial preferment and worldly honors to dedicate his life to a noble cause, THE APPEAL has always admired him because he is an UNCOMPRO- MISING advocate of right and justice, While the majority of the so-called leaders have equivocated and com- Promised the people for gold or power, William Monroe Trotter has always stood as a stone wall against every form of injustice whether by the Na- tion, the state, the munteipality or the church, “WHY AMERICANS FAIL” It is @ notorious fact that in spite of Pan-American congresses, long-winded editorials in American newspapers, steelers, the United Stateo ie be bina Germany, Great Britain, France and Spain so far as trade in Latin. Ameren fs concerned, A book by A. Wyatt Verrill on “South and Cortral American Trade Conditions of Today,” recently issued by Dodd, Mead & Co, New York, has this:to say under the heading, “Why Americans Fail: “Race or religious prejudice, con- deseension, discourtesy or bluff have no place in Spanish America, The Latin-American is a, gentleman first, last and all the time, He has never acquired our habit of Being a gentle- man in private life and a boor in business and he expects others to be as courteous as himself and if they are not he judges them accordingly. He may be white, brown, yellow or black, but he remembers that one of his ancestors was probably a plumed grandee of Old Spain. You may scoff at his ideas, you may laugh at his faith, you may curse at the “lazy Greasers,” and through it all he may smile, treat you with respect and po- liteness and greet you with expres- stons of the greatest pleasure, but in his heart he despises you for an ill- bred “Yankee pig” and thanks God that he is of Spanish blood. On the other hand treat the Latin- American with courtesy, praise the buildings and industry of his town, admire his beautiful women, visit his places of interest, and speak his lan- guage and you may command respect, admiration and true friendship and every entertainment and comfort will be yours,” ‘THE APPEAL has printed a number of editorials along this line showing that Americans have lost millfons of dollars through thelr jimcrow methods and It is a great satisfaction to have this view upheld by a great authority. thoroughly familiar with’ conditions, ‘Race prejudice is an expensive proposition for those who indulge in. ts - Many colored people are advocat- ing “self effacement” for the race as the solution of the race problem. The more the race gives the more its enemies will demand. Never willingly relinquish any right. a ' ie ey ; —— MY DUTY TO ELEVATE, NOT DEGRADE, Says Hon. William Hale Thompson, Mayor Chicago, When Appoint- ing Colored Men to Places in His Cabinet—A Presidential Paccithility William Hale Thompson, mayor of Chicago, has made a great name for himself’ by ignoring racial lines and giving the colored people representa: tion in the city offices. At a recent crowded meeting in Chi: cago he told why he did it ‘The mayor had a written address to deliver, He tried to deliver it, but the hum cf the assembled crowd’ discour aged him, So after reading about a third of the speech he tossed it to one side and concluded: “I could read the rest of this speech to you few in the front rows, and the rest of you could read parts of it’ to: morrow morning in the newpsapers, to which I have sent copies. But I won't finish. “Let me repeat that I am proud to be here, and let me add these words: Iam asked why I have appointed col- ored men in my cabinet. Here's Why He Did It. _ “Here is my answer: “1, Because the persons appointed were essentially fitted and qualified for the positions they were selecte to fil, “2, Because, in the name of human ity, it is my duty to do what I cant elevate rather than degrade any class of American citizens. “2. Because during the pre-election campaign I gave you my word that, i elected, I would give you a. square deal, and Bill Thompson keeps his word.” Mr. Carey Talks. The subject of the mayor's appoint ments to office was introduced by the Rey. A. J. Carey, who presided and Presented Mr. Thompson. “The colored people,” Mr. Carey sald, “ask no favors and no sympathy, nor do they ask any return for any support they may give to any cause, political or otherwise. ‘They ask only for what they deserve as American citizens. “Whatever Mayor Thompson has done, whatever he will do, he will do not out of sympathy for the descend- ants of a race once enslaved but for American citizens who have earned their position,” Cheers interrupted the speaker. ‘On the Way to Washington, “William Hale Thompson may not be elected president in 1916,” he went on, “but I'm sure he will’ be in 1920. I helped elect him alderman; I helped elect him county commission- er; I helped elect him mayor. And my work will not be complete until I have helped elect him president.” Then the storm broke and the crowd went wild. In his speech, among other things Mayor Thompson said: “I kmow that in some quarters I have been criticized severely for ap- pointing a few representative colored citizens to positions of honor, and trust, and dignity. Iam glad to take the full responsibililty and the honor of making every one of these appoint- ments, and I want to ask my critics to be as manly and to come out into the open light of day with their un- American sentiments, “Too much publicity is given the shortcomings and fraiities of the col- ered man and too little publicity is given his genius and skill, “We read in the daily prints column after column of sickening detail of erime or misdemeanor committed by some weak, abnormal member of the colored race, but seldom do we see accounts of the contributions to the: world’s work by colored sculptors, THE MAN WHO DARES Uhonor the man who in the con- sclentious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignor- ant, intolerant judgment, may con- demn, the countenances 4 relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the counten- ances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Summer. artists, poets, scientist, and educatora. Prejudice Still’ Exists. “Since attaining personal liberty, the colored people are still the vie. tims of relentless and unreasoning Prejudice which throws all sorts of obstacies in the path of advancement, “It is considered presumptuous for an individual of the colored. people to aspire to any employment other than mental tasks, and there have been recent instances where even your right to be considered among the laborers in this city has been chal- Ienged. “Not long ago, expressions such as this were ‘common: ‘Why, what do you think? ‘The mayor has put some ‘niggers’ to work out at the garbage plant!’ Just as though colored men are not to be considered human be- ings. | What of His Critics? “Criticism such as those enumer- ated are un-American and have no place in this land of freedom and op. Dortunity. ‘It inquiry were made con- cerning the nativity of these critics, it would probably be found that a number of them had come, or their immediate ancestors had come, to this country to escape tyranny and’ oppres- sion in some foreign land and to find opportunity in this land of the free, and, having found it, would shut the ‘door in the faces. of ‘others. “It ig easy to understand the atti. tude of our own citizens of southern ancestry, who feel obliged to de- nounce the colored man in order’ to justify the questionable acts of their forefathers, but such sentiments are entirely inexcusable when spoken by the children of oppression trom any Place in the wide world, “To deny equal opportunity to the Colored man in this land would be out of harmony with American his. tory, untrue to the sacred principles of liberty and equal rights, and would make a mockery of our boasted civili- zation and justice, and reuder mean. ingless the word opportunity. Believ- ing this as I do, you can rest assured that, so far as my power and influence fo, the colored man will get a square eal. Not “Vote Catching” Scheme. “This is no new position for me, nor is it advanced as a vote catching Scheme. I had the honor to be presh. dent of the Perry’s victory centennial commission from Ilinois, and, as such, & member of the governing ‘board of the ten states which participated in the celebration, “On investigation it was found that 40 per cent. of Perry's sailors were colored, and thereupon I did myself the honor to introduce a resolution Proposing to invite a prominent rep- resentative of the colored race to participate in the exercises commem. orating the victory. “The resolution, although opposed, was adopted, and I was afterwards fortunate enough to secure the dis. tinction for my friend, our distinguish. ed chairman, Dr. A. J. Carey, who not only reflected glory on himself, but credit on the colored people and his state.” | BOOM FOR THOMPSON. ‘Twin City Republicans Want Him to Run for President.

The management of the Star Theatre takes pleasure in announcing that "Blutch" Cooper will present his "Beauty, Youth and Folly" company at that house commencing with the mathe performance on Sunday, Oct. 10. The engagement is for one week only with a matinee and evening performance daily. This season the organization, which incidentally is one of the biggest and brightest on tour, is presenting three distinct types of entertainment, the whole furnishing two and one-half hours of solid merriment. The opening act is a merry musical offering entitled "A Night on a Roof Garden" which is likened to a page from the book of night life on Broadway, with just as much gold and glitter as is to be found along The Gay White Way. This is followed in turn by an all-star olio of vaudeville and as a concluding piece where is a special scenic burletta where he bears the titles of "Oh You Seahouse." There is a singing and dancing chorus whose principal assets are beauty and youth as well as ability, and the production has been most lavishly staged in the matter of scenic settings and costumes.

THE CONTENANTAL LEADS Other Health and Accident Companies Follow. You know what it means when somebody tells you, that this, that or the other health and accident policy is "as good as the Continental Casualty Company"—it may be you feel like arguing the matter but—there's never any doubt about the Continental Casualty Company's policy. It was the first company to write complete protection policies, the first to employ colored agents, and has kept pace with the country; it is the largest of all health and accident companies and is the only one that operates in every state in the union. During the year 1914 the Continental collected, approximately, twice the amount of premiums, in the State of Minnesota, as its nearest competitor, and out in claims more money than any other company collected in premiums. This large volume of business enables the continental Casualty Company to offer its customers better protection for a little less money than any of its competitors. We want your business. May we not talk it over with you? Chester W. Patterson, Agent, 212 Commercial Bldg. Cor. 6th and Cedar Tel. N. W. Cedar 1918 JOSEPH L. JONES EXPLAINS Noted Business Man Denies Claims of Man Mentioned Below. A man of the name of W. H. Jones, whose residence number is given as 267 South Fourth Street, Philadelphia, asserts that he is the twin brother of Joseph L. Jones, proprietor of the Central Regalia company, Eighth and Plum streets, Cincinnati, and that he owns a half interest in the Central Regalia company. The Jones referred to also says that he is the son of Bishop Joshua H. Jones of Wilberforce, O. and that the Hon. James H. Needham, grand secretary of the Odd Fellows, is his uncle. Mr. Joseph L. Jones, proprietor of the Regalia company, says he has neither brother nor sister. This man Jones is said to have been very active of late taking orders for the Central Regalia company. He has canvassed, it is said, in North and South Carolina, and during the latter part of September he was seen in Georgia. Joseph L. Jones, Bishop Joshua H. Jones and Mr. J. H. Needham say they do not know any such man nor have they any relative by that name or any one who owns a half interest in the business of Joseph L. Jones. Messrs. Joseph L. Jones, Bishop J. H. Jones and Mr. J. H. Needham are very anxious to locate the man who makes such business and family claims as are alleged by the W. H. Jones referred to in this article. Joseph L. Jones is the chairman of the executive committee of the National Negro Press association, editor of the Fraternal Monitor and vice supreme chancellor of the supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias. Lincoln Jubilee Celebration Closes. The Lincoln jubilee celebration, which closed at the Coliseum in Chicago Thursday, Sept. 16, was a great success in almost every particular.

The receipts as given by those in authority amount to $13,000.

The Minnesota Public Health Association announces that its membership is open to all citizens interested. Anyone who is concerned about his own health, that if his neighbor, or that of this state as if a whole, should take advantage of this opportunity. Weekly public health letters and various pamphlets will be sent to every member. "Minnesota the Healthiest State in the Union" is the slogan. Knowledge concerning disease and its prevention must be disseminated widely. The health and deficiency of this state depends directly upon the health and happiness of the individual citizen Do you know, Mr. Citizen, that for your present haphaward way of preventing disease you are paying directly or indirectly, a tax greater than the war tax of a foreign citizen? Consequently, you should realize that it is not only an opportunity, but a duty to become informed and to spread this information to less fortunate neighbors. Knowledge will enable you to do your share in Minnesota's great battle against preventable disease and death. Information will be sent to anyone who sends his or her name and address to the Minnesota Public Health Association, Old Capitol, Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Association's new year begins July the first. As new mailing lists send your name in at once. Simply address: Minnesota Public Health Association, Old Capitol, St. Paul, Minn POSTAL SAVING BANK.

One does not have to live where the postoffice is but may open an account by mail. Postal savings receipts have broken all previous records the past year. During the eight months prior to April 1st there was a net gain in deposits of $19,000,000.

A The End of a Perfect Day Eventide is one of the sweetest words in our language. To the laborer it means relief from the day's toil; to the man of affairs it means respite from the keen strife of business. It means the return to that haven of rest—the home. To the housewife it means her hour of triumph when she may gather around her those for whom she has made home a place of contentment. The evening meal is to her an occasion of cheer.
