I haven't heard a woman speak English in five months.' He said he had been walking about in the cold since four o'clock last night. He couldn't find a hotel or a bright light because, of course, everything is closed and darkened on account of the bombardments. . . . The Americans are very fond of ham sandwiches. They eat much more than the French soldiers, and when they first came in and ordered six eggs aplce it caused constation throughout the land. The funniest thing of all is to hear the Sammies最早 urging these wealthy English girls to 'keep the change—oh, keep the change!' . . . We start the day at five and work continuously until nine, when three fresh cantieries relieve us. At five we go on for the evening shift from five to eight, and it is the most exciting and exhausting of the shifta.

The foregoing letter indicates that our soldiers look to the Red Cross Canteen as an oasis in a desert. They would not have it if it were not for your Red Cross. --- --- VOL.34.NO.21 Bombardments Cannot Drive This Woman Back She Thinks Coffee for Soldiers More Important Than Safety. The following extracts are taken from a letter written by a Red Cross Canteen worker, Helen McElhone, an American woman and college graduate now located in a district almost constantly under bombardment: "Foyer des Allies, 'Bar-le-Duc. 'Things look very black to me. I am discouraged at the big outlook of affairs and also at my small doings, but it may be the blackness that comes before dawn. Let us hope so. Our men certainly need help now as much as the pollus. I am beginning to see those who have been at the front. In fact, I am beginning to see some of the results of this life. They are sick and homesick, and worse things have happened to them. Several have said: 'All we ask is to get to the front and do what we have to do. Anything is better than this life. . . .' This morning we had more Americans than I have seen before at one time. One came up to me here as I was HELP IN 50-50 WHEAT PROGRAM HELP IN 50-50 WHEAT PROGRAM Thousands of Retail Grocers Support Food Administration SIGN PLEDGE VOLUNTARILY. New Wheat Saving Program Demanded — Allied Food Shortage Increases—America Must Feed Fighters. Explaining the United States Food Administration's new 50-50 wheat regulations is a war time task the American grocer has gladly shouldered. Many stores are already displaying their Food Administration wheat saving pledge cards, that they have signed, agreeing to carry out the new wheat program. Each flour customer is now required to buy one pound of cereal substitute for every pound of wheat flour. The substitute may be of one kind or assorted. This 50-50 sale is made by weight and not by value of the commodities. There is, of course, no regulation demanding the consumer to buy wheat flour at all. A wide variety of substitutes has been provided: Cornmeal, corn flour, edible cornstarch, hominy, corn grits, barley flour, potato flour, sweet potato flour, soya bean flour, Feteteria flour and meals, rice, rice flour, oatmeal, rolled oats and buckwheat flour. Graham and whole wheat flour constitute an exception to the national regulation. Either of these commodities may be sold at the ratio of three pounds to five pounds of wheat flour—that is, five pounds of graham or wheat flour counts the same as three pounds of the usual wheat flour. Mixed flours form another exception. Where any flour contains 50 per cent, or less of wheat it may be sold without any substitutes. Where the flour is mixed at the rate of 60 per cent, wheat and 40 per cent, of other ingredients an additional 20 per cent of substitutes must be purchased by the consumer. Where necessity is shown specially prepared infant's and invalid's food containing flour may be sold. That the approved substitutes may be assorted is a fact many grocers and housewives overlooked for a time. For instance, if a customer wishes to buy a 24 pound sack of flour the necessary substitutes might be assorted as follows: Cornmeal, 8 pounds; corn rits, 4 pounds; rice, 4 pounds; buckwheat, 2 pounds; cornstarch, 1 pound; hominy, 2 pounds; rolled oats, 8 pounds. None of the substitutes should be considered as a waste purchase. There are many household uses for each. The eight pounds of cornmeal can be made into cornbread, corn muffins or used in the baking of wheat bread. Cornstarch is useful in making custard, thickening gravy or may be used in cake baking. Corn grits fried like mush forms a delicous dish, or it may be used in baking corn bread. Rolled oats are used largely as breakfast porridge or in oatmeal cookies or in making muffins. Buckwheat flour may be used in bread making, forming an excellent substitute for one-quarter of the wheat flour, but is especially choice in the form of buckwheat cakes for breakfast. With 11 wheatless meals needed each week in America to provide enough wheat for the allies, the Food Administration believes the substitutes will all be used to advantage. USE LESS WHEAT. The allied nations have made further increased demands on us for breadstuffs—demands that Americans are obligated to meet. In the meantime America's meat supply has been greatly increased for some months to come by the unprecedented shipping to market of hogs that averaged 232 pounds each instead of 203 pounds—the normal. The United States Food Administration, endeavoring to adjust the international food balance, promptly removed certain restrictions in this country on the use of meat and at the same time asked for a smaller consumption of breadstuff. We are asked to observe only one meatless day each week—Tuesday. We will have larger meat stocks for awhile. But our bread ration must be held to a minimum. In altering its food conservation program the Food Administration emphasizes that the food situation is of necessity, subject to radical changes, caused by crop conditions at home and abroad and by the precarious transportation problem, both in overseas shipping and in America's overburdened transportation system. The Food Administration will keep the American people fully and frankly advised of each change in the developing situation that they may know definitely the part their food sacrifices play in the world war. + Compare Your Baby's First Four Years With This In 1913 little Marie was born in a village not far from Mezieres, in the Ardennes. In 1914 Marie's father, called to the colors, fell at the Marne. And Marie and her mother stayed in the village, which was now in the Germans' hands. In 1915 a poster was pasted up on the door of the village church, and that night Marie's mother vanished, along with a score or more of other women. In 1916 Marie was still living in that village—existing through the charity of the few elderly folk the Germans permitted to stay. In 1917 Marie, with all the children under fourteen years and all the old people left alive in the village, was bundled into a crowded car and shipped into Germany, round through Switzerland and thence into France, arriving at Evan. She was underfed, of course, emaculated, sickly, dirty, too lightly dressed for the time of year. And she came into Evan with not a relative, not a friend left in all France to take care of her. Who took her? Your Red Cross! Over there in Evan your Red Cross took charge of her, cared for her in the Red Cross Children's Hospital, clothed her, fed her, built up her strength, taught her to play—and then helped the French authorities find her a HOME. Multiply Marie by 500 and you will have some idea of just one day's work your Red Cross does at Evan. It is only one of the Red Cross activities in France, to be sure—but for just that one alone can you help being proud of it? Can you help being glad you are a member of it, supporting its great work of humanity? Can you help wanting it to go on helping the Maries and the "grand-daddies" that come in at Evan? THE TRAIN THAT SAVED A NATION How the Red Cross Helped Roumania. Have you heard of what happened in Roumania when that stricken nation stood in rags and starving before the shocked eyes of the world? We had thought ourselves grown used to tragedies until this greater horror struck a blow that 'roused still untouched sympathies. And yet we felt so helpless, you and I, so terribly weak in our ability to offer aid. But were we? After all, were we not the very ones who carried new life and hope to the heart of Roumania? You shall be your own judge. Fighting with the desperation of despair, the shattered Roumanian army still struggled to beat off the Kalser's bloody Huns, who were mercilessly trampling the life out of the little kingdom. And the Kalser smiled brutally as he saw his wolves at work and knew that from behind the lines, attacking the fighting men of Roumania from the rear, entering the homes where mothers clung to the frail, distorted forms of their bables—was starvation. No country around Roumania could help her—and America was too far away. Thousands would die before supplies held in our own country could be sent her. Hope was gone. Death by hunger and by the dripping sword of the Kulser was closing in. A brave little nation was being torn to pieces. Then came the miracle. One morning the streets of Jassy, the war capital of Roumania, swelled with sounds of rejoicing. A city where the day before there was heard nothing but the walls of the starving and the lamentations of those mourning their dead now was awakened by shouts of joy. You, my friend; you who have helped in the heroic work of the American Red Cross, had gone to the rescue of Roumania. A train of 31 big freight cars packed to their utmost capacity with food, clothing and medicine, tons upon tons of it, had arrived in Jassy after making a record breaking trip from the great store houses of the American Red Cross in Russia. Other trains followed it; thousands were fed and clothed and nursed back to health. For weeks and even to this day the brave people of Roumania are being cared for in countless numbers by our own Red Cross. So was Roumania helped, and when history records how this last fragment of a sturdy nation was kept out of the hands of the terrible Huns it will give the victory to your American Red Cross. Defective Page WOMEN ASK FOR RATIONING PLAN WOMEN ASK FOR RATIONING PLAN American Women Volunteer to Buy Fixed Amounts of Meat, Bread Flour, Sugar and Butter. PLAN STARTED IN NEW YORK Idea Supplements U. S. Food Administration's New Home Card Now in 10,000,000 Homes. The women of America, who are anxious to do their great part in the winning of the war, are now, as a whole, familiar with the most important aspects of food conservation. The Home Card, both in its original form and in the revised edition for 1918, which provides for two wheatless days, one meatless day a week, in addition to a wheatless meal every day, has been placed by the Food Administration after a vigorous campaign in 10,000,000 American homes. An intelligent and conscientious observance of the Home Card's requirements is all the Food Administration asks of the housewives of the country. The Food Administration has had a great many requests, however, particularly from the homes of the well-to-do, that it should issue a worked out plan for a voluntary system of rationing. This desire for a voluntary ration springs from two causes—first, because it is far simpler for the housewife to save food when she has a concrete working plan by which to proceed, and, second, because the loyal women of America desire, unselfishly, to put themselves on the same basis as the women of the Allied countries. The ration proposed by the Food Administration is almost the same as that adopted in England for voluntary observance. All over the United Kingdom, in hundreds of houses there hangs in the front window a card with the stirring pledge, "IN HONOR BOUND WE ADOPT THE NATIONAL SCALE OF VOLUNTARY RATIONS." The ration recommended by the Food Administration, and adopted first in New York city, whence the idea has spread through the entire country, is the following: Weekly Allowance Per Person. Meat—Beef (fresh, salted, tinned and hashed); mutton, lamb and veal (mutton by preference) ..... 2½ lbs. Butter ..... ½ lb. Cooking Fats (margarine, lard, lard substitutes, vegetable oils) ..... ¼ lb. 2½ lbs. ½ lb. ½ lb. Wheat Flour (for use in cooking gravies, etc., where corn starch, cracker dust or bread crumbs cannot be substituted) ..... Victory Bread (containing at 1½ lb. 1¾ lbs. Sugar (including all sugar in on the table and in cooking and all sweatmeats and candies, but not that used for canning and preserving) The items listed above are the only ones which are definitely limited. In the case of milk and cream, as much may be used as necessary, and children, of course, must have their full allowance of whole milk. Fish and poultry, any cereal other than wheat, vegetables and fruits and cheese may be used as freely as is desired. The above ration is in no wise intended to supplant the Home Card, but rather to supplement it. It has been published with the idea that it will be a very real aid to the American woman in her splendid effort to carry out the great food conservation program. USE MORE POTATOES. ELP consume the 1917 record breaking potato crop. Government experts have esti- H mated that over 700,000 extra acres of potatoes were planted last year. The United States Food Administration is endeavoring to push the nation's big potato stocks into channels of trade and has placed potatoes on the list of substitutes that may be bought along with wheat flour. Potato soup has become a war dish. Here is a recipe that has been tested by United States Food Administration experts. Ingredients needed are three potatoes, one quart of milk, two slices onion, three tablespoons butter substitute, two tablespoons flour, one and one-half tablespoons salt, one-quarter teaspoon celery salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper, few grains cayenne and one teaspoon chopped parsley. Cook potatoes in boiled salted water. When soft run through a strainer. Scald milk with onion, remove onion and add milk slowly to potatoes. Melt the fat, add dry ingredients, stir until well mixed, then stir into boiling soup. Cook one minute, strain and sprinkle with barley. U.S. HE HAS GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING YOU POSSESS U.S. BUY WAR SAVINGS STAMPS to help win the war BUILT WAR STATE to help w the war WILL YOU LEND SOME OF IT BACK TO HIM? WAR STAMPS TO HAVE BIG DRIVE June 6 Is Opening Day for Minnesota Pledge Week for Their Purchase. "GOING OVER THE TOP" Director Culver Confident That Loyalty of People Will Bring Oversubscription of State's Quota of $47,000,000. Director D. S. Culver of the Minnesota War Savings Committee today set aside the week starting June 6th and ending on June 13th, as Minnesota pledge week for the purchase of war savings stamps. In making the announcement, he evinced confidence that the loyalty of people in this state will be manifested by pledging themselves to make purchases during the balance of this year which will result in oversubscribing the state's quota of $47,000,000. All county chairmen are now preparing for the drive that will soon start. In messages sent from state headquarters in the Metropolitan bank building, Minneapolis, a few days ago, sub-chairmen were asked the probabilities of their respective counties "going over the top" in the coming drive. Practically all replied that they expected to exceed the amounts allotted to their counties. "During Pledge week all citizens in Minnesota will be asked to pledge the purchase of War Savings Stamps during the balance of 1918 on a minimum basis of $20 per capita," said Mr. Culver today. "This does not mean that each is to be asked for cash subscriptions. Minnesota must raise her $47,000,000 quota during the year and the present amount, something less than $4,000,000, does not make a very good showing. "So optimistic are reports coming in from the various county chairmen that it has convinced us a great majority of counties will not only secure pledges for their required quotas, but will quite likely exceed their allotments." County chairmen are already adding to the personnel of their campaign committees with the expectation of making a hundred per cent showing during the big thrift stamp drive. Several recently have visited headquarters here in an effort to derive new ideas and straighten out minor details so the work during June will go along without a single blitch Vice Director J. H. Meyering, heading the sales forces, said the purpose of the campaign is not solely to ask immediate cash purchases. On the contrary, he explained, the pledges to be made during the week from June 6 to 13, are for W. S. S. purchases throughout the year. These will probably be on a monthly basis to extend through the coming months in equal portions. "The purpose of the government in inaugurating its War Savings Stamps sales is to encourage thrift." said Mr. Meyering. "That means that citizens can save from unnecessary expenditures enough money to buy their quota of savings stamps. If all do that the campaign in Minnesota will be a great success." BUY W. S. B.

Minnesota can exceed her quota of $47,000,000 in the War Stamp Pledge Week drive beginning Thursday, June 6 by observing the following hints, said a prominent worker: Aiding the W. S. S. campaign is giving help to the Allied cause and to U. S. soldiers; Buying stamps is nailing a plank in the nation's ultimate victory over the enemy; Pledging purchases to be made throughout the year means support for those engaged in forever putting down a regime that glories in the murder of women, children and other civilians; Creating interest on the part of others to buy W. S. S. is helping to build monuments for those heroes who have died and been wounded in fighting for YOUR protection; He who does not pledge $20 as a minimum for each person dependent upon him is not helping America to make the world a safe place to live in; You can lend a helping hand to those who are today fighting YOUR BATTLEEN in the front line of trenches by buying or pledging to buy your FULL, QUOTA OF WAR SAVING STAMPS. This applies to every man, woman and child in every township, village, and county in MINNESOTA. HAVE FAMILY OF BABY BONDS Childless Couple Pledge Themselves to Buy W. S. 8. Until two weeks ago Mr. and Mrs. (deleted by censor) had been without children during their six years of married life. Now they have two infants born just a week apart—and it all came about in a unique way. They had a wedding anniversary on April 28 to which their friends were invited. Before the guests arrived, however, the door bell rang and there, on the front porch when they answered the bell, they found a basket in which was wrapped a wee infant. How delighted they were. Taking it into the house they removed the coverings and there, sure enough, was their much longed for baby. It was a Baby Bond. Soon the guests arrived and extended hearty congratulations, for the baby—the Baby Bond—was their gift to the happy couple. Mr. and Mrs. (censored) have vowed they are going to have a large family of children for they have pledged themselves to purchase four War Savings Stamps (Baby Bonds) each month during the balance of this year. By so doing, they told their anniversary guests, they are realizing their wishes to raise a good sized family as well as to give Uncle Sam their support in his battle against autocracy. BUY W. 8. 8.

SATURDAY, MAY 25, 1918 DEMOCRATS BROUGHT THEM IN "This department is too patriotic to use these pencils," wrote Inspector C. O. Myers to W. D. Fulton, Ohio's Secretary of State, on receiving a consignment of pencils marked "Made in Germany." It was a fine joke on the Democratic officials of Ohio, whose party stands for free trade. They are "too patriotic" to use pencils "Made in Germany," but in 1913 their party was no unpatriotic as to make a bid for German competition in lead pencils, against those "Made in America," by reducing the tariff duty to a ridiculous rate, thereby enabling Germany to stock our market so full that our importers are carrying those stocks four years later. Do you Democrats and free traders now see the point? If the war lasts long enough perhaps you will learn something in regard to this matter. No amount of argument has ever been able to convince you. SOME RIVETER It is very gratifying that every once in a while colored persons do something so superior that the "superior race" have to acknowledge it. This was the case last week when a gang of colored riveters working at the Sparrows Point plant of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation broke the world's record for driving rivets in a steel steamship. Charles Knight drove 4,875 three-quarter inch rivets, 2% inches long in nine hours. The previous high record was 4,442, established in Scotland. Lord Northcliff who had a standing reward of 25 pounds for _any one breaking the record has sent that amount to Charles Knight. THE DRIVE FOR LIBERTY. The movement for the Liberty Congress was inaugurated in Boston, June 13 of last year at a session held in Faneuil Hall, the cradle of liberty, at a national conference called by the New England League. A Liberty Conference was started as a national committee to arrange for a National Colored Liberty Congress. Rev. A. C.

To the Colored Americans of the Republic of U. S. A.; By virtue of the vote of the National Colored Liberty Conference in national convention assembled at Boston, Mass., June 13, 1918, to wit: "The Aim and Object of this National Colored Liberty Congress is to preside the just claim of the Colored American citizens of the United States of America to share the world democracy for which they are subject. to fight under the flag of the United States, and to take positive measures to secure from the Government guarantee the protection of disfranchisement and of all caste discriminations, civil and political." We now send forth this CALL to our fellows in Color and in Proscription; To all Colored Churches, business, civic, literary and fraternal societies and organizations, greetings: The National Colored Liberty Congress is called to consider among ourselves and lay before U. S. Congress methods by which President Wilson and the Government may best carry out his great work. To make the world safe for Democracy, to make the world a fit place to live in, "and we would also add to them—To make Democracy safe for the world, to make the world a fit place for all people to live in." We know that the present contains the darkest hours of the world's history. The earth is full of violence, pain and sorrow; of bitterness and hate. Many people are in a state of perplexity; their hearts are failing them with fear because of the evils which stalk abroad by night and by day. Our people are trying to hold fast their faith in God and in our government. But to many God seems to be far away and the government strangely indifferent because of the injustices done to our people. And it is certain beyond question, that neither injustice nor even our boasted Christian civilization has saved our nation from harm, and traits of autocratic barbarism. In the midst of much suffering and traumatizing songs for centuries, we have been patient and loyal to our country. In all for independence and a united nation, we have marched and fought in the front ranks. "When disaster clouded the Union's cause, we volunteered 200,000 strong, and served without pay for eighteen months till given that of white troops. Faced threatened enslavement if captured; were brave in the heavy and dangerous labors, and cheerful amid hardships and privation; and given to the nation and the world undying proof that Americans of African descent possess the pride, courage and devotion of the patriot and soldier." That is compliment paid the Colored soldiers at the close of the great Civil War. We know the patriotic and loyal today; we serve our country and its flag; we know no other. Representing as we do, more than one-tenth of the fighting strength of the U. S. we desire in Liberty Congress to be assembled, place and date as above aforesaid, to ask President Wilson and Congress at this time to discriminate of whatever classes of our Country all proscription laws of race discriminations of whatever classes of our home, for pursuits, our wives, our children and our posterity, that which we dying in a strange land to secure for others. We are ready to fight to victory for a world-wide democracy which offers equal opportunity and equal protection, for every man, woman and child, American citizens at home and the seas. With this covenant we stand ready to pledge to the government our man, woman and children, to the last dollar and the last man to win the war for world peace, to make the world a fit place for all people to live in. Meet in John Wesley Zon Church, 4th and Corcoran St., N. W., Washington, D. C., June 24-29, 1918. A Clayton Powell, N. Y., Pres.; Allen W. Whale Man, Nat'l Organizer Marian F. Syders R. N.

Executive Headquarters—34 Cornhill, Boston, Mass. Powell of New York is president; Prof. A. W. Whale of Boston is national organizer; W. M. Trotter, executive secretary. A board of managers was begun with Robert H. Harrison of New York as chairman. This board is to be augmented. The purpose of the Congress is to press the just claim of Colored Americans to share in the world democracy for which they are all subject to fight under the flag and to take positive measures to secure from the government guarantees of the abolition of disfranchisement and of all caste discriminations. The proposal to hold a meeting early this year has been enthusiastically received by the thinking men of the country and the executive officers have decided to hold the congress at Washington, D. C., June 24 to 29. the government as Americans, not as "negroes." NOW FOR LIBERTY. Sunday, June 23, will be Liberty Day in the colored churches of the Columbia. The National Colored Liberty Congress proper will open Tuesday morning, June 25, Monday the 24th, to be given over to registration and meeting of the Board of Managers. "The Aim and Object of this Congress of delegates from Colored churches and organizations is to press the just claim of the Colored American citizens of the U. S. A. to share in the world democracy for which they are subject to fight under the flag of the Republic and to take positive measures to secure from the This congress of Colored America to present to the Government its claim for a share in the world democracy is a great opportunity for the Colored people. Every community ought to send a big delegation. "NEGRO" ADVISEB NOT "NEGRO" ADVISER NOT WANTED. Pressure has been brought by "negroes" 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. 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 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 SIN OF SILENCE 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 wrangs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. the government as Americans, not as "negroes." NOW FOR LIBERTY Sunday, June 23, will be Liberty Day in the colored churches of the District of Columbia. The National Colored Liberty Congress proper will open Tuesday morning, June 25, Monday the 24th, to be given over to registration and meeting of the Board of Managers. "The Aim and Object of this Congress of delegates from Colored churches and organizations is to press the just claim of the Colored American citizens of the U. S. A. to share in the world democracy for which they are subject to fight under the flag of the Republic and to take positive measures to secure from the Government guarantee of the abolition of disfranchisement and of all caste discriminations, civil and political." A SIGH OF RELIEF. The last heard of Francis J. Heney, who came to Washington to "bust the trusts," the Supreme Court had refused to grant him the right to paw over all the papers of the meat companies. Heney has subsided. It is remarked in Washington that Heney came in like a lion and went out like one of Bo-peep's lams—leaving his tail behind him. The country is too full of fulminate to have such a firebrind at large. The Philadelphia Ledger is of the opinion that this war will produce no Robert Morris, no Stephen Girard, no Jay Cooke—meaning by that that no man will so impress himself upon the financial operations of the government during the war that he will stand out like these figures of Revolutionary and Civil War days. This may mean some loss to the picturesque with which historians may write the record of our war for the freedom of the world; but that will be more than overbalanced by the gain to the nation in the consciousness that the united action of ten million citizens—the number who subscribed to the second Liberty Loan—means more for the national cause than the superhuman efforts of any one man. Resolutions urging the organic union of all the evangelical churches in the United States were adopted at Columbus, Ohio, by the general assembly of the Presbyterian church north. Arrangements will probably be made, as has been done by nearly all of the other orthodox branches of the so-called Christian church, to jim-crow the colored members.

Charles W. Scratchin, Esq., of Beemidji, Minn., one of the leading lawyers in that progressive city of Oklahoma, of which one four are colored, has asked a distinguished distinction of being selected as one of the two speakers on Memorial Day, at the Grand Theater at 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon, after the maker will be Rev.

"Negres and Dogs Not Allowed" (From the Nashville Clarion) Down in Houston, Texas are some elevators in public buildings labeled 'NEGROES AND DOGS NOT ALLOWED.' Generous Classification! Such elevators are designed for the exceedingly rapid manner in which the Colored men are repopulating the South. They can be neither blamed nor censured for leaving a home, and they have hearts and souls and human ideals, just like the people of other races. Should Open the Doors to Opportunity (From the Christian Register.) (From the Christian Register.) A circular sent out to employers in a large city, calling attention to the number and quality of young colored men and asking co-operation of the city, in making their services available, brought one reply which though anomous is significant of an opinion still widely influential. "Kindly send them a letter, instead of mixing them with it," the teacher of an individual desire these two persons course admissible, but as practicable measures it is curious that any intelligent person should seriously entertain them. Does any one suppose that the United population of the United States arrives at Arles, or that if they were sent they would long as they are here, and have already been mixing for more than a century, and have the rights of citizenship, including the right to die with white men for their country, is it any more intrinsic responsibility and intrinsic leadership than more industrial doors to their proved abilities and usefulness? While we write, a moving-man is unloaded by two white men and one colored man. The colored man is the boss, the white man is the manager. There is not the least trouble about it; we would never be trouble if it were not made by people of the temper of the anonymous objector. Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one of one per cent of the colored people of Africa can trace their descent to Africa. There is no more right to call all colored Negroes than to call all white people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass. Why Did They Prefer "Colored?" (From the New York News.) (From the New York News.) We trust that all of the advocates—and otherwise, white and black, and hard-core, and the rage of the word "NOGER" as a reason have caught the full meaning of its use at Houston, Texas. At the request of the Twenty-fourth Infantry and the authorities decided to refer to them as "colored" soldiers. They had been deprived and nagged and goaded by the corrupted use of the word until for fearance ceased to be one of their most important contemptuously and constantly come contemptuously and constantly not as American soldiers, or Americans, nor as "Ucle Sam's Boys" or in any other respectful attitude. The press now designated and debased in the public the armed and debased in the public the defended and the armed, manly defended of the American word—as "Nogeros." Perceiving this evil practice and influence the officers of the Twenty-fourth appealed to the public to use the word "colored." Instead, the word "colored," troopers or soldiers would have to be used. A kindlier feeling between the soldiers and the officers might have ensured. We ask all proponents must have ensured. As to how the practice resulted, the word "nogeros" to ponder the troops and their officers for the change should be a striking example of how the practice worked to just how the practice worked to just hard, everyday life. Whatever the argument about making it respectable in the future, it decreases respect for the face today. It does no good today. It does no good, then, for its use. Are you please be called a "Nigger?" Are you please be called a "Nigerer?" Are you please be called a "Nogeros?" Then discontinue using "Nogeros." If you worth while for you to be referred to a man and your folk as people, insist on the use of the word "colored." Must Judge A Group by its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the people, compare many persons who live in the south with those who know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of the race whom their Southern friends have known. The two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people better than the first. They know aspirations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not know and appreciate; they know capabilities of the race through the best of the race which others are only vicious of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are interested in, and who know the colored race through the observation merely could know what individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, they would reiterate judgments and possibly soften their views, and they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the equal of any members of the dominant race and in the clearestest manner. No estimation worth much which does not take people at their best. The Color Line in the Catholic Church. (From the Southwestern Christian Advocate, New Orleans, La.) There are two hundred thousand colored Catholics in the United States according to Walter F. McEnlure, a prominent Catholic, who in telling of the stories of men and women working among colorful Catholics in the United States, among other things says in the Tidings, of Los Angeles: "The Church has no color-line in the House of God, and any man who tries to lay one down is not a true Church." This is good reading but it is not true to fact. There are only two colored priests in the entire Catholic colored constitutive of America, and the Catholic Church is the only religious body in America that forces on them the duty of ministry. Moreover, the color issue is completely in the Catholic Church as elsewhere. There was a time when the Catholic churches welcomed colored people to the altars but not now. Joseph Church, New Orleans, a few years ago, are market reserved for colored. 50c a Week and Your Promise for This ABSOLUTELY PERFECT BLUE WHITE DIAMOND These diamonds are absolutely beyond comparison; they are wonderful specimens of scintillating beauty; positively blue white stones of first water quality.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN. That default has occurred in the conditions of that certain mortgage dated the 8th day of May, 1912, executed by Bertha A. Wolf and Richard A. Woolsey (Woolsey as mortgageors, to Rose Leland asgagee, filed for record in the office of the Register of Deeds in and for Ramsey County, State of Minnesota, on the 9th day of May, 1912, at 3:00 o'clock and 20 minutes P.

C., JUNE 24 TO 29, 1918 Our Paramount Duty. Realizing that the World War in Europe has already removed race discriminations and political disabilities from every proscribed class in Europe, except the Armenians and that the Entente Allies are fighting to relieve these; realizing that now the Colored American stands as the worst proscribed person among the United States through its president, and cabinet officers declares its mission into the European war is to promote liberty and democracy over the world; realizing that not only have Colored Americans sought to volunteer for this war, but that hundreds of thousands of our young men are subject to be subjected by law to risk disease and death as soldiers in this war; realizing that all the rights we have assembled together and presented their demands for this revival are now on the issue of world democracy for Americans of African extraction, which formed the National Colored Liberty Conference and elected Prof. Allen W. Whale as Grand Organizer. While President Wilson is declaring that the U. S. a is fighting for "World Democracy," disfranchisement, Jim-Crowism, Lynching and even Massacre in any civil bound and the government itself, is creating new segregations for this very army, and to be everlasting shame of our race if at this time when all oppressed people have fallen to claim rights denied, we Colored Americans of the entire country fall to assemble and present our claims for rights. Unless we secure redress out of which we our boys are drafted to fight for "World Democracy," disfranchisement will never be abolished and WE OURSELVES WILL BE TO BLAME FOR NOT RACALLY DEMANDING IT FROM THE GOVERNMENT. We have never seen and will never see again such a time as this, hence every Colored community is in duty bound to send delegates. Every literary, political, civic, fraternal and race organization and every religious society every Colored community send a delegate. Every community should have a COMMUNITY LIBRARY to send a delegate. Every community duty it is to get all local bodies and organizations to send a delegate.
