SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1918. "HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL IN THE HUMAN BREAST." Every once in a while something is said by somebody, somewhere, that gives us fresh hope for the future. One cannot talk intelligently on any subject, unless he has given that subject intelligent thought. Everything that man has ever done good, bad or indifferent was the result of thought. Thought created the universe; thought has maintained it, and will forever do so. When people think right and express their thoughts, right must eventually prevail. So many white people in the United States think wrong, speak wrong, act wrong, in regard to their colored fellow citizens, that it is very, very refreshing when we hear expressions of right thoughts from them. The above thoughts were engendered by expressions made by Bishop Woodcock and Dr. R. W. Patton, executive secretary of the Home and Foreign Missionary Board of the Episcopal church at a largely attended meeting in Maculey's Theatre, Louisville, Ky., Sunday, March 24. Bishop Woodcock who presided said, after recounting the progress the colored people had made: "You would better get right on the 'Negro Question,' or, God helping you a time will come when you will wish you had, and you ought to feel it." Dr. Patton said among other things: "The Negroes have given to the world the highest of all virtues, the Law of Love. They, more than any other people, demonstrate the ideals of patience and loyalty. They are loyal when they have some reason to be disloyal. When the war is over, the Negroes having given their sons to die on the battlefields of Europe, will have an awakening, and will never again be satisfied with past conditions. WE CANNOT WIN THIS WAR WITHOUT THEM. We had better get ready to meet them in a fair, just and economical manner." Dr. Frank Crane, the great thinker and writer in a recent article on, "What We All Can Do," said: "Think humanity instead of race hate. Think --- V MOOREFIELD STOREY DRIVE. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was founded on Lincoln's birthday, 1909, with headquarters in New York. There are now ninety branches in as many states of the country, and all are to join 4000 members from April 17 to 27 as testimonial to Hon. Morefield Storey, of Boston, the Association's president in recognition of his services to the nation in the Louisville segregation case which was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of the United States. This decision is considered the greatest victory since the enactment of the Fifteenth Amendment. The Association appeals to all fair-minded citizens, white and colored, to join with it in the effort to secure simple justice under the law for colored citizens who represent over one-tenth of our citizenship. This nation-wide appeal for membership is not on narrow grounds of race or class privilege, but on the broad ground of justice, of equal protection of all citizens under the law without distinction of race or creed or class. The maintenance of these just principles is of equal interest to all classes of citi- fellowship and not egotism. Thoughts are soldiers. Drill them, feed them, and make them fight in humanity's cause." WHAT DOES IT MEAN? The following appeal is appearing in the daily press: To the Editor: May I be permitted to appeal in this personal way to your readers for a war need very pressing and very deserving of patriotic attention, and yet easily overlooked. The newly-organized Circle for Negro War Relief is trying to provide for enlisted and drafted men the same comfort and cheer that numerous societies are giving the white troops; also to care for the many cases of distress in Negro families where the wage earner is serving the country. One-tenth of our troops are colored men. Surely a movement to organize them and work toward a great common end will make the Negroes better citizens (just as all other war work is making better citizens) and will have results reaching far beyond the present crisis. The Circle for Negro War Relief is approved by, and is working with the National Red Cross. It aims to do a needed work that might have to be left partially undone in the present enormous demands on our national Red Cross. Our office (donated by a friend) is at 489 Fifth avenue, New York. We need funds at once. Every penny will go to actual relief work. Our colored troops have been brave, loyal fighters from the days of the Civil war to San Juan hill. Whatever one's view of race problems, there can be no two opinions of helping thousands of colored men and women to be more efficient soldiers and citizens and so help win the war. EMILIE BIGELOW HAPGOOD. It is possible that the American Red Cross has become so UNAMERICAN that it has drawn the color line and made the formation of a separate organization for colored soldiers necessary? What does the RED CROSS stand for? Thousands of colored Americans are members of the National Red Cross having donated their dollars during the drive for membership last To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. zens and an essential element of national strength and all are asked to join the Association for this common principle of justice and civil liberty. The Association admits members upon payment of any amount from one dollar per year upwards. The Association feels that the American people have a right to be proud of the one hundred thousand colored soldiers now serving in the regular army and the national army, as a result of an active campaign on the part of this association an officers' training camp for colonized men was inaugurated at Des Molines, In., as a consequence of which nearly seven hundred colored officers were commissioned. The Association, through an anti-lynching fund contributed by believers in law and order, investigates as many cases as possible of lynching and mob violence, gives publicity to the facts regarding them, and endeavors to arouse public opinion against the mob spirit. Annually, through the gift of the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Association, the Spingarn Medal is awarded for the highest or noblest achievement by a colored American during the preceding year. year. They asked no questions about the way the money was to be used but supposed it was for the benefit of ALL AMERICAN SOLDIERS. A strange condition seems to have arisen. What does it mean? Let us have light. SOLDIERS OUGHT TO INSURE. Congress has enacted what is known as the War Insurance Law which provides, for a small sum, a war risk up to a limit of $10,000 and every soldier and sailor should carry this insurance. The cost is so small that it never would be missed from the monthly pay. Under this law, every soldier now in the services, commissioned, enlisted or drafted, no matter what his age, has the right between now and April 12, 1918, to take life and total disability insurance up to $10,000 at low cost, and, what is very important, without medical examination. Those hereafter enlisted or drafted may take out War Risk Insurance within 120 days after enlistment. In case of the soldier's death, each $1,000 of War Risk Insurance will pay his beneficiary $5.75 per month for twenty years. War Risk Insurance holds good after the war. This is a great opportunity and all friends and relatives of colored soldiers should write and urge them to insure now before it is too late. Application blanks and full information about War Risk Insurance may be procured by any soldier from the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Washington, D. C.; from his commanding officer, or from the insurance officer at the camp or contenment where he is stationed. All other persons desiring information should address the Director of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Washington, D. C. "NEGRO" ADVISEER. NOT WANTED. Pressure has been brought by "negroes" so the wires tell us, to have a "negro" adviser appointed to tell the Department of Labor what ought to be done along "negro" labor lines. Secretary Wilson has announced that a "negro" will not be selected as a permanent representative but prominent colored men will be consulted. Secretary Wilson has the right idea. No patriotic colored American wishes a jimcrow representative. It would be all right to appoint a colored man as an assistant secretary of labor but to appoint a "negro" adviser and confine him to jimcrow duties would be segregation in its worst form. "Negroes" who are asking for segregated places in the department of the government are doing the colored people a great wrong. Any man who would accept such an appointment, would necessarily be a jimcrow man and he would do his country great harm in bolstering up the color line. Give colored men representation in the government as Americans, not as "negroes." CENSUS PLUM CAKE The 1920 Census Bill provides for a staff of 92,000 employees to take the census. Conforming to the policy of the administration with respect to partisan appointments they will all be Democrats. This is added evidence that the army will be recruited from the ranks of the Republicans. The party out of power and spurned by the President is the party which has made possible this draft law and which is furnishing by far the greater percentage of the fighting force. Milton has a verse "On His Blindness" which may be aptly applied to both parties: To the Republicans— "Thousands at his bidding speed, And post o'er land and ocean with out rest." And as to Democrats— "They also serve who only stand and wait." Except that the Republicans wait for the ships, whilst the famished Democrats wait at the political pie counter. Safe for Democrats! SHOULD ABANDON SEGREGA TION. Dr. Gulick, secretary of the commission on relations with the orient of the Federal Council of Churches said in Boston recently: "America should abandon its humiliating and discriminating treatment of Japanese and Chinese in this country," he said, "and adopt an oriental policy fitted to hold those people permanently to friendly relations with the democratic nations of the west." Dear Doctor G. would not it be well for America to begin right here at home and "abandon its humiliating and discriminatory treatment" of its own colored citizens? How about it dear doctor. THANK GOD! The commission on union of the Presbyterian Church North and the Presbyterian Church South failed to agree on a plan for the proposed merger of the two great church bodies at the final session of this joint conference at Atlantic City. Thank God that the North would not agree to the color line proposals of the infamus Souhern branch which would have dragged Christianity in the mire. A commission appointed by the Bishops' Council of the A. M. E. Church to make representation against discrimination against the colored people in this country was received by President Wilson. The delegation left a written document. The response of the President was guarded. What constitutes a non-essential is largely a question for each person to decide for himself. Anything you can do without and still maintain your efficiency, is a non-essential at a time when the government needs the money you could thereby invest in Thrift Stamps. --- San Juan, P. R.—A flame of indignation swept through the length and breadth of the Island of Porto Rico on being told that the United States timeious custom of racial separation in the army would be put in practice upon them. A petition in the form of a resolution was introduced in the house of representatives by Mr. Manuel F. Rossy, one of the white members, setting forth in detail and eloquence the injustice and inhumanity of forcing discrimination on a country wherein it was hitherto unknown. The resolution not only adopted unanimously by the lower house but passed the senate without a single dissenting vote. Petition Ignored. The resolution was presented to President Wilson and it was ignored. The Porto Rican Regiment that was formerly mixed was cut to pieces and men of color put in separate divisions all the draftees have been separated into quarters according to color. Porto Rico has no higher appeal; it is bitter, indignant, but helpless. Introduced by Native Leader. Representative Mr. Manuel Rossy, who introduced the resolution is the leader of the republic, whom in the lower house. In studied and telling language Mr. Rossy presented the reasons why Porto Rico objected to divisions in the army, based on color lines. Porto Rico has long been celebrated for the unity of the races there. Members of the darker race are in every branch of industrial and civil life. The largest department store in San Juan, the capitol, is owned by a colored man. The senior member of the Senate, who has held his seat by four consecutive appointments, by the United States and by an open election, as a colored man. The judge corresponding to our circuit-judge and having under his jurisdiction the metropolis of Porto Rico, San Juan, is a colored man. The commissioner of trades and labor is a colored man. The mayors of numerous towns of Porto Rico are colored men. SAINT PAUL Mrs. James Mitchell is suffering from gripe. Mrs. J. L. Ervin has gone to Sparta, Wis., to reside. Mrs. H. M.

A visit to the big Pub- lic Market is always a help to the housewife, for it enables her to see just what the market affords and offers her many new ideas to relieve the monotony of the meals. A new food, a fresh vegetable, a delicious fruit, a salad dressing, a juicy steak or roast, a dainty cake, or something out of season might be just what will appeal to her. Or one of the many demonstrations always in progress might suggest a dainty dish or a new way to save or conserve. Besides, the satisfaction of personal selection repays every effort.

The grand opening of "Count" Anderson's new North Side Cafe, Thursday evening, was a decided success. The elegant dining rooms were packed with fair women and gallant men from early evening until early morn. The guests were entertained with music and song by Misses Blanche Mason and Loula Richardson in a most delightful way. Mr. Eddle L. Boyd, of the Porters' and Waiters' club, 311 Hennepin avenue returned Tuesday from a two weeks' trip to the south. He visited his mother and other relatives at Starkville, Miss., and then visited New Orleans, Memphis, Little Rock and Chicago and had a delightful time meeting old time friends. He reports having enjoyed his trip hugely. Mesdames Price & Smeddler the progressive proprietors of THE HAIR SHOP, 715 Sixth avenue north have made some very effective improvements in their up-to-date "Beauty Parlor" and are at work on others. They have just received a new shipment of Overton's goods and can supply customers with any article manufactured by the Overton's. Ladies and gentlemen are cordially invited to call. The ninth annual Easter ball under the auspices of Pride of the West Co. No. 1, Uniform Rank of K. P. which was given at Arcadia Dancing Palace last Monday night was as usual a brilliant success. There were over four hundred guests present during the evening and there was a large number of beautiful ladies in stunning gowns to lend life to the occasion. Pleasure seekers may always count on a good time when an entertainment is given under the auspices of this up-to-date organization. On Sunday, Sept. 30, 1917, Attorney B. S. Smith accompanied his wife to church in her new Buick, five-passenger motor car, and while they were devoutly worshipping the Divine Ruler, the devil got busy and prompted one of his minions to purloin the car and when church was dismissed the car had disappeared. Of course Mr. Smith got busy, and, after much trouble, finally located the car. He met the devil of the devil and on Tuesday had the pleasure of presenting his spouse her property and both are quite happy. The case was handled by Atty. W. T. Frances of St. Paul. The North Side Cafe, L. ("Count") Anderson, proprietor, which has long had the reputation of being the nicest cafe and chop suey parlorons on the north side, has been moved to much larger and more elegant quarters at 901 Sixth avenue north a short distance from the former location on the same side of the street. The "Count" did himself proud in the manner he has fitted up his beautiful place of business which must be seen to be realized and appreciated. He now has a special regular dinner at noon, weekdays at 30 cents and Sundays at 50 cents. Telephone Hyland 5881. MRS. ROBERT A.

The funeral services for the late Edward F. Mitchell were held at St. Peter A. M. E. Church, Minneapolis, Monday afternoon, April 2d, 1918. The church was completely filled with those who came to pay this last tribute to the deceased. Mr. Mitchell was a member of the Great Lakes No. 43 I. B. P. O. E. of Elks, of Chicago, the Pride of the West No. 5 K. P., the Uniform Rank Company No. 1 of this city and Aide-De-Camp on the Staff of Major Robert R. R. Jackson, of Chicago. Through the reception received from Major Jackson, Mr. Mitchell, the military funeral conducted by the Pride of the West No. 1, and Brigadier General Wm. R. Morris and Staff, and was interred in the full dress uniform of the Knights of Pythias. The palbearers were members of the Staff. Rev. T. B. Stovall preached a very impressive sermon from the Fifteenth Chapter of John, dwelling on the sixth and seventh verses. His subject was, "Christ the One Great Example." A large body from the Elks' Organization conducted their beautiful and solemn ceremony for the dead. This included the always impressive recitation of "Thanthopsis," and on this occasion Mr. Wm. R. Morris gave a more than usually beautiful and touching rendition of this classic. The casket, purple in color, the emblem of Elkdom, was rolled out between the lines formed by the Elks' lodge and placed in the waiting funeral car. Interment was at Lakewood.
