War is Not Over, Germany has'nt Quit A FEARLESS EXPONENT OF RIGHT AND JUSTICE THE TULSA STAR OUR SUBSCRIPTION LIST MAKES A VALUABLE MEDIUM FOR ADVERTISING The Negro Press And Its Mission VOL. 6 Over and over again have we called attention to the power and influence of the Negro Press. The race's progress along all lines of human endeavor is in direct ratio to the development and growth of the Negro Press. To all intelligent and thoughtful members of the race this amounts to a truism; they do not even question the statement. Prior to the advent of the Negro press, the white press had invariably misrepresented the aims and aspirations of Negro people. It had in season and out of season, decried and belittled them, and had about convinced the public that the Negro was an inferior race and should occupy an inferior sphere. People who had not come in personal contact with the best element of the race, had about become convinced that the proscription and discrimination against the race were about what it deserved. They painted only the black sidevery seldom the bright side. They practically ignored our greatest men and women, and only harped upon the worthless and irresponsible class. This was the situation when the Negro press entered the arena two decades ago. The Negro press addressed itself at once to the Herculean task of presenting the bright side as well as dark. It told of him in his two colors; it showed that he was human and that he had his virtues and vices like other races. It showed that there was a lawabiding class which had as much regard for law and order as the better class of any other race group. As a consequence, through the Negro press, the world sees the Negro in a better light, and their opinion of him has greatly changed in his favor. As the times go by, and the Negro press grows stronger by reason of race patronage, they will see him in the same light that they see other people and give him what NEGRO-OWNED PROPERTY IN GEORGIA INCREASES Tax returns for the year 1918 on all Negro property in the state of Georgia, which have been completed by W. H. Harrison, clerk in the office of Comptroller General Wright, shows a total of $47, 423, 449 worth of property held by Negroes, which amounted to an increase of $7,135, 528 over the returns of 1917. It is shown by the compilation of the figures that the Negro who remained on the farm has accumulated within the past year an additional three million dollars worth of hogs, horses and cattle. While over $700, 000 has been spent in automobiles by Negroes of Georgia in the past twelve months. The report discloses the fact that the dogs owned by Negroes are valued at almost the same figures as jewelry owned by them, the difference being two thousand dollars in favor of the jewelry. One thousand six hundred and forty Negroes pay poll tax in Fulton county, while the returns in property values are $2,389, 260. In Lee county 2,400 Negroes pay poll tax and 438 whites. The property returned by the former for this year is $481,423, and by the latter $2,311,848. Negro-Owned Property. Towns county has not a Negro taxpayer and Forsyth county has only three Negroes, who return $370 dollars worth of property. Gilmer county has six Negro tax-payers, who return $1,705 of taxable property. Figures for all Negro property are as follows: belongs to him. This is the mission of the Negro press; but it can only do this by receiving the whole-hearted support of the Negro people. Therefore it has been left for the Negro press to point out the race's achievements in everything that looks to the general welfare. Now, in view of this fact, it seems to the Independent that every Negro family in this state and in the United States, owes it to the Negro press to have these papers in their homes, and urge their children to read them and patronize them; for it only Negro newspapers that present him in his true colors and show what kind of race we are As we have traveled through this State and others, when Negroes are asked to take Negro papers, they too often reply: "I am taking all the papers I can—I am taking this paper or that one," and when you come to investigate the matter, it is only the white papers which point out their short comings, and the crimes they commit, and every violation—even down to lifting of chickens off the roost. It seems that they prefer them to their own papers, which are defending them. This shows an utter like of race pride and gratitude, and it not so to be. Every Negro family in this country ought to gladly take their own papers and have their children read them and learn what the race is doing. You owe it to yourself, you owe it to your children and you owe it to your race. We would not advise you not to take other papers, but take the papers of your own race first. Let every Negro family throughout this broad land adopt this as a policy. Then the Negro papers will be able to defend you in such a manner as will redound to the honor and glory of the race.

FIRST COLORED WAR CORRESPONDENT ARRIVES IN FRANCE Ralph W. Tyler Off to the Front for News of Our Gallant Soldier Boys and to Tell of Their Valiant Fight for World Democracy. (By Ralph W, Tyler.) PARIS, France, Sept. 28. I have just reached this city, after a ten days' voyage, which was, for the most part, uneventful. We experienced delightful weather from the time we steamed out of New York harbor until we cast anchor in a port over here. Had it not been for the democratic spirit prevailing aboard the big liner, and which gave me a most satisfactory taste of this "world democracy" for which the Allies are fighting, I might have considered the voyage monotonous. Aboard the ship was quite a galaxy of notable writers for the big dailies and magazines; feature and fiction writers who were taking a respite from that occupation to write "straight stuff" for dailies they are to represent. Among them were celebrities like Will Irwin, Robert W. Ritchie, Damon Runyon, H. J. Foreman, erstwhile managing editor of Collier's, and Applegarth, usually known as "Appy" by the pencil pushers and readers, of the Pittsburgh Post. Each and everyone of these notable writers—former newspaper reporters, seemed to have made an especial effort to make me forget,—which I did, that my skin was several shades darker than their, and by so doing to convince me that this "world democracy" for which the Allies are fighting is neither a barren ideality nor a rainbow vision, but an actual probability whose advance courier is discernible with the naked eye. The treatment accorded me by the newspaper men aboard was but typical of the treatment accorded me by all the other passengers. Among the nearly two thousand souls making up the ship's passenger list were many Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Knights of Columbus and Salvation Army workers. These all displayed a most notable evidence of a healthy spirit of democracy by their fraternalizing as if they were all members of the one and the same organization. Among the Y. M. C. A. workers abroad were five Colored secretaries; Fritz P. Cansler, of Knoxville, Tenn., Thomas M. Clayton, of Piqua, Ohio, F. L. Clark, of Leavenworth, Kans., D. D. Mattocks, of Philadelphia and G. W. Jackson, of Louisville, Ky. The Y. M. C. A. certainly made no mistake in selecting these five men for over seas duty for they represent the highest type in the race, and by their hearing won the respect, and even admiration of all on board the ship. Diversion by Service Battalion Aboard Ship Aboard the ship, also, was a Colored service battalion belonging to an Engineer regiment. They were stout, husky fellows whose good humor was effervesent, even cotagious, and their rolling songs and plantation melodies cheered all, making them, those whose thoughts had involuntarily turned to submarines—Germany's acme of kultur, forget them, and banish all fear from their minds. One of the songs which they frequently sang, and with a gusto which gave further evidence of their 100 per cent Americanism, and which never failed to elicit rapturous applause from the white passengers, was "Three Months From Now We Will Be In Germany". I had heard it said that the big waters frightened Colored soldiers, but these Colored soldiers aboard the ship I sailed appeared contented, self-centered, and care-bereft on the big ship at night, when lights were out, as they were down in Alabama Viaginia, Mississippi, and other Southern states from whence most of them came. Their contentment at sea, and when in the submarine zone, constithe troopers were some clever boxers, and the monotony of "just sky and water" was frequently broken by some rattling boxing matches between these troopers for pretty substantial purposes which the passengers contributed merely out of admiration and respect for these big, brave black boys, who did not faer to come over here to fight for world democracy. An amasing incident took place the second day out. Forty or fifty of the Colored soldiers had formed a circle and were singing to their hearts' delight, and the delight of the passengers. One of them, seemingly, changed his voice with each song or hymn. "What do you sing?" called down, from the uper deck, a good natured son of the Emerald Isle. Quick as a flash came the answer: "Some times I sing bass and sometimes I sing soprano". And it was true, for in the chorus he adopted himself to the type of the song he was singing, to the circumstance, to the other singers, and abov all, perhaps, to his mood. Because they going across the big waters, it must not be accepted they were merely lighthearted because of lack of brain development, for many among them were bright intelligent men, graduates of Howard University and other accredited schools. Off to The Front For The News 0f "OUR BOYS." I shall tarry but a day or too here in Paris; only until I get my itertively made out, and then I shall be off to the front where our Colored soldiers are stationed, and I go to the front with the same absence of fear that characterized the Colored troopers who sailed for France on the ship with me. In my next letter I hope to have been able to secure some real, permissible, news about what the Colored soldiers, our boys, have done, and are doing to maintain the race's traditional reputation for bravery, endurance and patriotism, and to help "make the world safe for democracy". If this world democracy we are fighting for is like the sample 1 have been made acquainted with, from New York to Paris, I have no doubt what they are putting up a whaling good fight to land the Democracy pennant for the United States, our own, and only country. DID RACE AN INJUSTICE Mrs. Myrtle F. Cook, secretary of the Colored Childrens' Improvement association, recently wrote to Judge Ben B. Lindsey of the Denver Juvenile Court complimenting him upon the brilliant and patriotic address he delivered in this city a few days ago, but felt that in the relation of a dialect story attributed to one of our race "over there" he unintentionally did the race an injustice. In reply Judge Lindsey said: "No one can overestimate the magnificent heroism and devotion of our black boys "ove rthere." And I do not think that the quaint and delightful humor that they have furnished will detract one whit from the real appreciation of what they are doing and their genuine work as citizens in every way equaled to rank with their white brothers with whom they are devotedly pouring out their lives for the cause of democracy and justice. I hold for them an abiding and deep affection and I really enjoy their delicious humor and good nature under the most trying circumstances."—The Kansas City Sun. Hon. F.

WELD SEVEN WAR WORK AGENCIES INTO RELIEF ARMY Great Organization Which Are Helping to Keep Up the Morale of Fighting Millions Unite in Campaign for $170,500,000. ?kinETAOINSHRDLUCMFWYP With millions of American men on war fronts, in training camps and on the seas and with thousands of American women on foreign soil, all engaged in the stupendous task of making the world safe for democracy, a great duty devolves upon those who remain in the United tSates,—the duty of sending home to those who have put home behind them for the period of the war. The agencies through which this can be accomplished are joined in the United War Work campaign. rFom being given the cigarette or chocolate bar, with which he stays his hunger in the fury of battle, to the theatrical entertainment or the athletic games, which relax him into normal comfort after weeks of terrific combat, the American fighter is dependent upon the continued efforts of the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A., the National Catholic War council and K. of C., the War Camp Community service, the Jewish Welfare board, the American Library association and the Salvation army. To carry on this work the combined welfare organizations are seeking a fund of $170,500,000. The Y. M. C. A. provtdes 538 huts in American training camps and more than 800 in the war zone as centres which the fighter can use as clubs, schools, theatres, stores, churches, libraries and writing rooms. More than 7,000 men and women had been sent overseas or approved for overseas work by early autumn and 3,822 were serving in American camps at home. Y. M. C. A. huts are the canteens of the American Expeditionary Force and are the theatres where the American entertainers, sent over by the "Y," appear. Noted American public men and clergymen speak in the huts. Classes are conducted there. iMillions of letters are written there on paper provided free by the "Y." Physical directors of the "Y" teach and spread mass athletics, using material furnished free by the organization. The Y. M. C. A. does similar work for the thousands of American women in war work overseas—signal corps, telephone operators, nurses and rFench munition workers. It provides cafeterias, rest and recreation centres, entertainment and raiding for those women and girls. The Y. M. C. A.'s outstanding contribution to soldier welfare work in training camps was the establishment of oHstess oHuses, where the soldier or sailor may receive his mother, wife, sister or sweetheart in the surroundings and atmosphere of best homes.

NO 50 Somebody's Dollar Will Do It—I Wonder If They'll Be Yours. I will tell you what will happen some night this winter in France. Some night when it's cold and dark. There will be a rustling through the front line trench, where our boys stand guard. And a heavy ladened secretary will make his way along. In his hands will be great steaming pots; in his pocket chocolate and cigarettes. From one man to another he will go, passing a cup full of hot coffee to hauds that tremble with the cold; bringing the comfort of a bit of sweet and a smoke. Men will hail him cheerily, slapping him on the back; and when he has gone things will be a little easier in that trench because he has passed that way. How much will it cost to make that trip, do you suppose? Counting the pittance that the secretary is paid, and the cost of the chocolate and the cigarettes and all? Pive dollars? Twenty-five dollars? I do not know. But whether it is five dollars or twenty-five, I'd like to think that it is my five or twenty-five—wouldn't you? That some night when it's cold and lonesome, my money and yours might send a secretary out along the frontline trench. Let's make up our minds that we are going to pay for a score of those trips. A score of the nights this winter shall be our nights. —nights when the boys greet joyously the chocolate and cigarettes that our money provided; and are happier because our representative has passed. PRACTICE WHAT WE WOULD HAVE PREACHED All Negro business fraternal and professional people as a rule especially in their embzryo stage would have the Negro pulpit and press preach to the people the gospel of Race pride and support Negro business especially that which he may happen to be engaged in, but how often after he, as he supposes, gets upon his feet forgets the "bridges that carried him over safely," forgetting altogether the fact that one who happens to get up will need in a measure more or less the same things to keep him up. For instance we might take a lesson from the progressive caucasian who advertises in newspaper. He rightly realizes that as a public enterprise his business owes so much to the public in keeping alive a good daily or weekly newspaper therefore aside from what he may receive in a business way. He contributes freely to its advertising columns the chief revenue of the public spirited newspaper of his town. But in far too many instances in our own race many of our most advanced business people financially, are noted for their absence in the advertising columns of their own papers and per-adventure if a few should happen to come across a few times with a small add for 50 cents or $1, per month will not be long before the "add man" may expect to receive on his returned bill the fatal notice "please discontinue our ad." Gentlemen, this is not a personal or an individual indictment, but is the echo of a fault in our people altogether too prevalent and it is therefore as much the duty of a public servant to tell us of our faults as it is to praise us in our grace. Let us practice the gospel that we would have preached. Our people, under the leadership of Editor A. J. Smitherman, organized this week, to help in the war fund drive. Another meeting will be held in the Star office, aSturday, Nov. 9, and plans to raise money, etc., will be submitted.

The Promise of a Resurrection From the Dead the Only Light of Hope for Humanity When we look stern facts in the face and note that the billions of humanity from creation to the present time that have existed upon the earth but a short time then pass into death, breaking up the dearest of family ties, and leaving behind the most precious treasures of the earth, we wonder if it is all of life to live or all or death to die; and were it not for God's promises of a resurrection of the dead and a better life beyond this evil condition for all the willing and obedient, this world's drama would be a dark one indeed. From Bible chronology man has been upon this earth little more than 6000 years, and of course the Bible statement is true, and should any one be inclined to question the Bible's reliability on the point of chronology the way is open to questioning its claim of being the inspired word of God, and any one who doubts the Bible being the inspired word of God, (I don't mean interpolations of the Bible) is not in a condition of heart to be taught its deep truths nor to receive the comforts of the blessed promises therein made for man. The resurrection of the dead is the most prominent feature of God's Great Plan of Salvation for man. Some one has foolishly said there would not be room enough on this earth for all the people, were they resurrected, who have lived upon the earth and died since creation to the present time; but such statement is absolutely without foundation tor truth. According to Bible chronology 6000 years would reach from the creation of Adam down to 1872 A.D. Now for the purposes of making a mathematical calculation of the human race and for the purposes of avoiding fractions we will compute the number of all possible persons that have ever lived on earth during the 6000 years from creation to 1872 A.D. Get your paper and pencil and let us assume that it is 6000 years since the creation of man and that there were as many persons created at the beginning as there are now (taking our stand at the year 1872, the estimated population of the earth at that time, was fourteen hundred million 1,400,000,000). As a matter of fact, the human race began with only one pair. And further, let us suppose that there never were fewer than 1,400,000,000 at any time during this 6000 years (but as a matter of fact the flood, at one time, reduced the population of the earth to only eight persons.) Again let us be liberal and estimate three generations to a century or thirty-three years to a generation (though according to Gen. 5, there were but eleven generations from Adam to the flood, a period of 1656 years or about 150 years to each generation.) Now let us see: 6000 years are 60 centuries; 3 generations to each century would give us 180 generations since Adam; and 1,400,000,000 to a generation would give 252,000,000,000, as the total number of our race from creation to the present time (1872), according to this very liberal estimate, which is certainly more than twice the actual number. The present population of the earth to date is estimated to be about 1,600,000,000; but our very liberal estimate and calculations of the human race from creation to 1872 should more than convince the responsible minded, that the estimated 200 million more persons since 1872 to date can easily be provided for in the resurrection. Where shall we find room enough for this great multitude? Let us measure the land and see. The state of Texas as a cemetary would at this There are 27,878,400 square feet in a mile, and therefore 6,607,180,800,000 square feet in Texas. Allowing 10 square feet as the surface covered by each dead body, we find that Texas contains 237,000 square miles, rate, hold 660,718,080,000 bodies, or nearly three times as many as our exaggerated estimate of the number of persons that have ever lived upon the earth. Persons standing occupy, and at an average about one and two thirds feet of space. At this rate the population of the earth, at present, could stand on an area of 88 square miles—an are less than that of the city of London or Philadelphia. And the island of Ireland (area of 32,000 square miles) would furnish standing room for more than twice the number who have ever lived on earth, even at our exaggerated estimate.

KODAKS AND SUPPLIES Remember It Is The POST OFFICE DRUG STORE IN THE BRADY HOTEL friends in settling the question as to room for the resurrected dead When we call to mind the prophecy of Isaiah (35:1-6) that the earth shall yield her increase; that the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose; and that in the wilderness shall waters break out and streams flow in the deserts, we see that God indicates that he has foreseen all the necessities of His plan, and will make ample provision for the needs of all the resurrected dead in what will seem a very natural way. --I beg to remind you that all these modern conveniences, labor saving devices, plans for irrigating the deserts etc., are all A, B, C, principles to be perfected during the day of restitution for the happiness of man. This day of restitution or judgement day, which is a 1000 years long, is the time God has appointed to restore the willing and obedient of the human race to that perfection from which Father Adam fell, more than 6000 years ago. God has not judged and will not judge the world as a whole, individually, for life everlasting or death everlasting until His set time, the day of judgement or Restitution or the Millenial day. The term Judgement Day, Millenial Day or day of restitution mean one and the same thing. It is only when the different ways in which God will manifest Himself to the world of mankind during that blessed period is considered that the different names for that period are mentioned. For instance, when we think and read of the awarding of blessings for obedience and the administering of strips or disobedience we term that period the Judgement Day; when we think and read of man (the willing and obedient) being restored to all that was lost in Father Adam we call that period the day of restitution; and when we think and read of the lenght of time required to do this work we term in the Millenium or a period of 1000 years. As we stated in the previous issue, we again state that the Lord has not been dealing with any one, during this Gospel Age, but the body members of Christ, the Little Flock, the Bride of Christ and Her maid, the great company. In other words the work to be done during the Gospel Age has been and is the selecting of the officers to rule and govern the world in righteousness during the Judgement Day. For the purpose of giving you some idea as to the character of Jehovah God, we will give him credit for having, at least, as much sympathy, love and justice as the best of fallen humanity. My friend, put this question square to yourself, and get some idea of Jehovah's character. Take a case like this where a poor man or woman is the offspring of parents very low in the scales of morals and further that this poor man or woman was raised up under very immoral conditions. You can readily understand that the nat'l bent of such individual would be downward. Now were it within your power to grant to this individual everlasting life or death eternal could you out of your heart of hearts feel justified in passing the most severe sentence upon this poor person who is a victim of circumstances over which he or she has no control? I say, could you consistently decree such sentence without first uprising such individual physically, mentally and morally? I believe the very first thing you would do would be to strike down the evil influences that tend to drag the poor individual down. I believe that you would see to it that this poor person was equipped physically, mentally and morally to make a good and successful fight for everlasting life. I feel sure that you would see to it that such individual did not gain life everlasting it would be because he or she willfully and intelligently and in opposition to all needed help, decide to go the way of sin and death. I further believe dear friend, if it was within your power you would be glad to give every creature on earth everlasting life, provided they lived clean and Godly lives. I am sure you would rejoice to bring all the broken families of earth together in one grand and happy band. I believe this is the true sentiment of the Godly inclined individual. God who has the power, plans to do this very thing for humanity. Unfortunately the majority of the clergy have, ignorantly, been the most active agents of the adversary in that they have taught the people that God's plan is to save all who will be saved during this Gospel Age and the rest of humanity to be consigned to an eternity of torture by fire proof devils. They taught the people that the Lord has said in so many words you poor depraved sinners notwithstanding the fact that you have inherited tendencies to sin and that you were borned and reared under immoral conditions over which you had no control and notwithstanding the fact that the Devil and IHS host of demons have you chained down in superstition, ignorance and sin you had better, in some way, I don't know how, get sense enough to join the church, pay up your dues and be preached into Heaven when you die or do otherwise and go to hell and burn forever. Dear friends, the character of Jehovah God is so far superior to that of fallen humanity, that we cannot even conceive of the lenght, breadth, height and depth of God's Justice, Power, Love and Wisdom towards His human creatures. He has not and will not permit the billions of humanity (not including the Little Flock) to come to trial for life or death everlasting until the arrangements are complete for giving them a most favorable trial. The resurrection of the dead will take place on the Judgement Day. "God hath appointed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness" Acts 17:31. The judges will be Christ and the faithful overcomers of this Gospel Age. "The Father judgeth no man but has committed all judgement unto the Son, "John 5:22. The length of ungodly men, with The length of the judgement day will be 1000 years. "The Day of Judgement and perdition of ungodly men with the Lord is 1000 years, 2P. 3:7,8 If there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen; and if Christ is not risen your faith is vain, ye are still in your sins" 1 Cor.15:13-17; As all in Adam die, even so all in Christ shall be made alive" 1 Cor. 15:22. There are to be two resurrections, a first and a second. The electors, the Little Flock, are to have their part in the first of the chief resurrection at the close of the Gospel Age in order to be with the Lord and help judge the world in righteousness during the Judgement Day. Theirs is a blessed portion. "Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection" Rev. 20:6. The Little Flock, the electors shall be partakers of the Devine nature" 2 Peter 1:4. After the first resurrection is completed and the Judges, Christ and His Bride, take their seats, then, at their command the door to the Prison House of Death must fly wide open and let the billions of death's captives come forth to judgement. "The hour is coming in which all that are in their graves shall hear His voice and shall come forth unto resurrection of judgement Jno. 5: 28. 29. "They that hear ((obey) in that day shall live, Jno. 5:25. We have much to be thankful for in these closing days of the Gospel Age when the light of God's Plan of Salvation is shining as never before. We are so glad that the Judgement Day is the time for the blessings and uplifting of all the willing and obedient and not a time when the literal Heavens and the literal earth shall be literally burned up including all persons and things therein except a little flock. During that day, "times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord," *eta* 3:19-21; "The earth shall yield ier increase," Psa. 67:6; the inhabitants of earth shall not say, "I'm sick," Isa, 33:6; "The eyes of the blind shall be opened and the ears unstopped." Isa, 35:5. In conclusion, I beg to remind all unfaithful servants and those who know not the truth, and who spend most of their time advancing their own selfish plans, that the millions you have preached into error and into heaven and into a burning hell will soon condemn you in the resurrection day when they return and have no story to tell of being in a Heaven of Bliss or a hell of fire, storking with fire proof devils. There is positively no scriptorial grounds for the false idea that, during this Gospel Age, or any other time, all good people, at death, go to a heaven of bliss and the bad ones go to hell to burn forever. As a matter of scriptorial fact, both the just and the unjust go to the great prison house of death to waite the resurrection or judgment day at which time the just will be rewarded with everlasting life and the unjust be given a most favorable trial and a chance to gain life everlasting by submitting to the rules of the New covenant which will then be in operation. Let us take Jehovah at His word when He tells us in plain scripture statements what the condition of the dead is. If we take Him at His word. Gen. 2:17; Rom. 6:23; Excel. 9: 5, 10, all will be clear.
