The National Memorial Association, Inc., organized in 1916 to erect a suitable memorial in honor of the colored soldiers and sailors who fought in all the wars of the nation, will hold a meeting at Liberty Hut, December 15, to bring prominently before the people of the District the purpose of the organization and to solicit the cooperation of all the people in raising a fund to defray the necessary expense to put the project before the nation.

The bill pending before Congress asks for a site and an appropriation of $500,000 for the erection of a memorial building in this city, where conferences of a national character pertaining to the educational, industrial, commercial and civic interest of the Negroes of the nation can be discussed. The bill was referred to the Library Committee, who held a hearing October 14 and issued a full report of the hearing. The following persons spoke at the hearing: F. D.

New York has welcomed the coming and sped the parting guest. This city is never wholly insensible to the approach of a distinguished foreigner, but when that foreigner is heir-apparent to the throne of the British Empire the interest cannot be expressed by adjectives. On the day of the arrival of the Prince of Wales the Aldermanic Chamber was ablaze with light and color. Celebrities were everywhere visible; great officers of the army and navy, great men of state and national life, great leaders of commerce and finance, ladies whose beauty or renown have filled two continents, and educators of the highest scholastic attainment were gathered there. The scene was the very apotheosis of brilliancy—more brilliant than was ever before witnessed in this chamber of historic pageantry; brilliant with color, with the beauty of fair women and brave men, with the attendance of personages of high repute and with historic associations. Men of science and of letters, artists, warriors, journalists, financiers, dignitaries with their blushing honors thick upon them, ambassadors, ministers, and men and women of quality were there to do honor to the young man who is one day to be King of England and Emperor of India. It was a never-to-be-beforgotten scene, admirable in itself, and doubly memorable in its significance to the Anglo-Saxon people of the world. Precisely at 12 noon the procession escorting the Prince arrived. The WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1919 scene in front of the City Hall was one of animation and great splendor. Soldiers and sailors, civic organizations and uniformed clubs of every degree of dignity filled the plaza in front of the City Hall, while a double row of policemen lined the corridors and stairways. When the military procession came to a halt, a blue-eyed young man stepped from the first automobile and stood at attention. He seemed a first just the least bit doubtful as to whether he should proceed up the broad flight of steps which led to the Chamber of the City Fathers or not. That was your first impression. A second glance showed you how wrong you were. It showed that what you mistakenly thought was inward uncertainty was but gentleness and refinement of manner. This was not a Tammany alderman who was about to enter the Aldermanic Chamber, as if he were going to annex the place and all it contained, but a prince of the blood royal and a young man of singular personal attractiveness. This democratic prince assumed no authority; he never seemed to care to assert that which rightfully belonged to him. He greeted the subcommittee of the Mayor's Committee on Receptions to Distinguished Guests with hearty good will. This subcommittee was typical of New York life in its broadest and most inclusive sense. It consisted of eight men walking in pairs as follows: Rodman Wanamaker and Grover A. Whalen, Police Commissioner Enright and Allan A. Ryan, Charles W. Anderson and Clarence H. Mackay, Gen. T. Coleman du Pont and Henry Clews. This subcommittee escorted the prince and his shining retinue to the raised guests' dais in the Aldermanic Chamber, where Mayor Hylan and Secretary of State Hugo, who were to welcome him in behalf of the municipality and the commonwealth, were waiting. The speeches were excellent in tone and taste; that of the prince clear, accurate, judicious, humorous at times, always sincere, and always interesting. He presented to the eight members of his "escort committee," including our representative, Mr. Anderson; a silk bow composed of the American and English flags, and thanked them warmly for their courteous attention. During his stay in New York, Collector Anderson lunched with His Highness at the Chamber of Commerce, dined with him and the English societies at the Waldorf-Astoria, and was present at the reception to specially invited guests on board His Majesty's S. S. "Renown." Thus was the race represented, and well represented, at the ceremonies attending the visit of Edward, Prince of Wales, to the city of New York. *** Lieut.-Col. Charles W. Fillmore, c. the 15th Infantry, has been appointed an assistant auditor in the IncoTax Department of the State Controller's Office, at a salary of $2,60 per year. He entered upon his dutie last Tuesday. *** The many friends of Aldermen elect Geo. W. Harris and Charles H. Roberts are planning complimentary dinners for them in the near future. *** Hon. J. Frank Wheaton, who has been undergoing a serious surgical operation, is now well on the road to complete recovery. HANDY'S BAND AT DUNBAR. Washington society turned out en masse last Thursday evening to do honor to Handy, the Jazz King of Tennessee. A very entertaining musical program was rendered to a crowd which filled the Dunbar High School early in the evening. Standing room was hardly available in the balconies. After the program a big dance was pulled off in the armory by the jazziest jazzers that ever jazzed, a party of the Quality players from Howard Theatre arriving in time to take part. The entertainment was given under the auspices of the aCrushers and the Community Center, which was a big THE WHITELAW HOTEL.

Every guest registered at the desk, which was in charge of Mrs. Jolly, a very accomplished lady, who was formerly a teacher in the public schools. There were committees of ladies upon each floor, who directed the guests to the well and tastefully furnished rooms. At 9:30 as many of the guests as possible assembled in the 'dining room, at which time the program for the first evening was carried out, with the exception of Rev. M. M.

On the other hand, the friends of Bundy claim that" he has done more for Elkdom than any exalted ruler in any local or national lodge.

The city of Washington is the hotbed for shams and ministerial hypocrites. No city in the United States is more infested with this class of individuals than Washington. These grasshoppers jump from one State to another, until the last State and city to which they jump have a tendency to hold them. Glib-tongued individuals land in this city from other outlawed towns, and the moment they get the public fooled by their hypocritical preaching they begin an attack on those who have made a better record than they possess. But as a rule, these shams soon meet their Waterloo. The moment they arrogate to themselves superior leadership, then they begin to inaugurate a cleaning system. They forgot to clean themselves, and they fail to inform the public why they were compelled to leave other States and finally drop down in Washington. It is the sham who has ruined the industries of the city in the past; it is the sham who has placed himself at the head of local bodies and fleeced the people of their money; it is the sham who puts himself at the head of newly organized bodies and hoodwinks the people out of money. There is but one man in the city who has succeeded with a large industry against the non-support of the masses; there is but one bank that has succeeded while dozens of others have failed with former shams at their heads. The Bee has time and again warned the people against shams. Mr. Soders has called for a report of money collected by the Race Congress for the benefit of the rioters. When that report is made it will be time enough to compare the records of Jernagin and Wilbanks. Mr. E. W.

D., secretary, held its usual session at Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets northwest, on Monday, November 24. After the regular reports of the ministers, the committee on membership reported the following-named brethren for membership: Robert. Anderson, Charlie H. Thompson and James T. Holmes, Mr. Wm. Calvin Chase, editor and publisher of The Bee, was introduced. He spoke of the excellent work of Mr. John W. Lewis, of the colored bank, in erecting an apartment-house in the city for colored people and asked the conference to contribute, as an expression of their appreciation of so laudable an enterprise successfully carried out by this gentlemen, to the purchase of a watch to be presented Mr. Lewis in the evening. The conference responded, giving the sum of $15.75. Mr. Morris Murray enjoyed his evening with a sweet belle, and, they say, his future spouse. Morris could not keep his eyes from entering those of the charmer. He has cause to be proud. Manager W. D. Nixon was right on the job. *** Mrs. Jeanette E. Baltimore, Mesdames Scott and Adams were enthusiastic entertainers. *** Banker John W. Lewis was very dignified. *** John H. Paynter delivered some speech. He was forceful and eloquent. *** For the first time in Washington colored Americans ate under electric lights. *** There were many beautifully gowned ladies in attendance. Improvement of the interior of McKinley Memorial Baptist Church, Fourth and L streets northwest, pastored by Rev. Dr. S. G. Lankins, is now in progress. Along with renewing walls and roof, the old lights have been removed and new and beautiful lights put in. There is a splendid working spirit now on, and it is a Christian joy that is shown in the various endeavors of the membership. Sunday, November 23, was communion day. The pastor preached morning and evening. Covenant meeting was held in connection with the communion services at 3:30. Mr. McCutcheon, field secretary of the National Baptist Convention, Inc., was introduced and spoke words of encouragement. Rev. Dr. O. H. Woods made his regular report. He spoke of Rev. Dr. A. W. Wilbanks in connection with Dr. Wilbanks' "prayer chain" movement as one of the greatest preachers of the race. Rev. Wood extended an invitation to the brethren to meet at the Tenth Street Baptist Church after adjournment of the conference. The conference heard and accepted an invitation to attend Rev. Hill's reception at Friendship Baptist Church. Rev. Wilson invited the conference to attend the Interchurch movement December 1-3. This was referred to the executive committee Rev. Lamkins pronounced the benediction. On Monday afternoon, November 24, a number of ministers met in an informal advisory meeting in the Tenth Street Baptist Church, Tenth and R streets northwest, pastored by Rev. Alexander W. Wilbanks, D. D. The meeting, with Rev. Willis as chairman and Rev. Nichols as secretary, took under advisement the call of an advisory council to be held at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Third and L.streets northwest, pastored by Rev. Dr. Wm. H. Jernagin, said council having been called for the purpose of considering the withdrawal of the hand of fellowship from Tenth Street Baptist Church. A vote was taken on whether or not to attend this meeting of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church call. Fourteen voted to not attend, and five said they would attend: All expressed friendship for Tenth Street Baptist Church and its pastor, Rev. Dr. Wilbanks. It was also understood that after the Mt. Carmel meeting there would be an other meeting held. It is furthermore understood that the friends of Tenth Street Baptist Church and her pastor will stand by them. Oh Tuesday afternoon, November 25, between 1 and 2 o'clock, a council of Baptist churches, there being thirty-two present by representatives responding, met at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Third and I streets northwest, pastored by Rev. Wm. H. Jernagin, D. D., for the purpose of advising whether or not to withdraw the hand of fellowship from the Tenth Street Baptist Church. The council organized with Rev. Dr. J. P. Green, moderator, and Rev. Dr. James L. Pinn as secretary. Rev. Drs. Holland Powell and A. Sayles conducted devotional exercises. A resolution offered by Rev. Dr. Walter H. Brooks prevailed, which advised that the hand of fellowship be withdrawn from the Tenth Street Baptist Church if she does not discipline her pastor. The resolution was carried by a vote of 97 to 2, but this council was only an ex parte council, and advisory only. Many who voted with the majority did so, more than likely as a sign of approval for the stand taken by the colored Baptist of the District of Columbia for righteousness, and will so express themselves Rev.

The old general is the center of attraction. He is always in evidence wherever he goes. He is the man of the hour. He will leave for New York next week. New York, November 24.—General Henry Forrest arrived in the city from Chicago, Ill., last evening. He will leave for Washington today. Question 1. You were born and placed upon the earth. Why? Question 2. Now that you are here, what are you going to do about it? Question 3. After you leave here, where are you bound? If you will seriously ask yourself these three questions, you will probably answer question No. 1 by saying, "Well, I am here, so why worry about it? Question No. 3 you will answer by saying, 'All I can do is hope for the best'." the best." But the most important question of all—"Now that you are here, what are you going to do about it will be answered like this: While I am young I am going to take care of myself and see that no danger be falls me, that I may go through life unhampered by misfortune or mishap, enjoy myself to a reasonable extent, so that when I get old I will enjoy living and have no regrets or remorse of the past, for while I may not think of it now, I will surely grow old and feeble some day. I will guard and preserve my health, so that when I grow old I will not be dependent upon others for physical aid. I will take care of my eyesight that I may be able to see, for perhaps my-only enjoyment in old age will be in reading. If I do not carry out this wish while I am young, I will some day look back and be sorry, and worry and say, "What a fool I was." Come, let us fit you with a new pair of glasses and bring new life to you. Drs. Peters & Jacobs, Eyenight Special- 2010 Florida avenue northwest. Open evenings until 8 P. M.

RECEIVING CONSIDERATION IN LABOR SITUATION Eugene Kinckle Jones Confers on Housing with Carnegie Steel, of Pittsburgh—Presents Social Service Program. Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, appeared Wednesday, November, 19, before the investigating committee of the Interchurch World Movement which met in Pittsburgh. Pa., to investigate the steel strike. Ample time was given. Mr. Jones to present fully the problem of the colored worker in his past and present relation to industry—organized and unorganized. Both capital and organized labor, were represented at this conference of investigation, whose sessions covered several days. Homer D. Williams, president of Carnegie Steel, and L. H. Burnett, assistant to the president, were both present and spoke. A representative of the American Federation of Labor also appeared before the conference, the hearings of which were not made public. J. H. Hemphill, employment manager of the Carnegie Steel at Duquesne, Pa., and S. G. Morton, of the engineering department, held conferences with Mr. Jones, the one concerning the employment of Negroes, and the other on the matter of housing the Negro worker. This company is now drawing plans for the housing of both single men and the families of men in their employ—a step contemplated to go far towards solving the housing problem of Negroes there and its attendant problems of health, sanitation and morals. After addressing several other groups of Pittsburgh people—the Pittsburgh Urban League's executive board, a group of welfare workers of Pittsburgh and vicinity, and the Social Workers' Club of Pittsburgh—Mr. Jones left for Louisville to address the Kentucky State Conference of Social Work on Friday, November 21. This conference brings together annually the white social workers of the State. After presenting the matter of health, work and delinquency, he offered this program: That a committee be formed to be composed of both white and colored people representing the best thought in the community, who will work in cooperation for the good of the whole community. First, because the two races are bound together by many inseparable, ties, and, second, because the cause of the workingman is not one that is colored by pigment; the same problems underly the cause of the white workingman and the cause of the colored workingman. Lynchburg, Va., November 16.—"The American Negro is not asking for any special legislation, but the enforcement of the laws which you have already made and for the protection of life and property; and he will make his way up or report to God the reason why," was the decla- [Image of a man seated in an ornate chair, holding a sword, with a crown on his head.] REV.

Pe Open evenings until 8 P. M. ration made by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute and president of the National Negro Business League, in addressing an audience of 2,000 persons Friday night at the City Auditorium. It was the closing session of the Negro Organization Society and the Virginia State Teachers' Association. The Negro Organization Society was organized seven years ago by Dr. Robert R. Moton, having for its motto "Better Schools, Better Health, Better Homes, Better Farms." It was the thirty-first annual session of the Teachers' Association. The two bodies work side by side for the object set forth. It was fitting that Dr. Moton should deliver the closing address, and at the close the large audience declared that he was safe and sound on the race question and was doing much for his people. There were many white people present, who listened attentively to the noted educator. Among other things, Dr. Moton said: "I like the Negro Organization Society because through it people have been able to talk directly and through it they can say the things frankly to the white people, and that are nearest their hearts to the people who have most to do with the making and execution of the laws. The time has come when we as races in the South must cease talking about each other and must endeavor more and more to talk to each other; and the time has come also when we must be willing to listen to each other. There never was a time when colored people and white people were more willing to talk to and listen to each other more dispassionately than today. "The Negro is loyal to his country and to the South as any group in the country, and he is loyal to the Southern people as anyone in the South, and a large majority of them need the South and the South needs them, and cannot get along without them. The South is at the beginning of an era of economic development such as it has never before experienced, and it never needed the Negro more than it does today. The Negro is one of the South's greatest other the tive s of So- gh— ad- ence member other s of of e of- economic assets, therefore, it is very important for the development of the South if not for the Negro himself that every reason consideration should be given that part of our population. Those who make the laws, those who interpret and execute the laws, those who mold sentiment, those who believe in right and justice and fair play, owe it to themselves and to their section as well as to their country to see to it that those black millions are made happy and contented for themselves as well as for the good of the country; and that can only be done by being fair and just in dealing with the colored people—that the laws which white people make should apply with equal force and effectiveness to black and white people alike. The Negro should have the same chance to share in the blessings and privileges of democracy as it true of every other citizen." At the opening of the convention Tuesday evening, held jointly, Mayor Royston Jester, Jr., Mrs. L. C. Watkins and L. G. Lewis delivered welcome addresses, which were responded to by Virginia N. Carney and Dr. A. A. Graham. The following officers were elected: were elected Negro Organization Society—Robert R. Moton, honorary president; Major Allen Washington, president; L. L. Downing, P. B. Young, Mrs. Ora B. Stokes, R. C. Young, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, A. T. Shirley, W. E. Robinson, Wm. M. Reid, Mrs. Ida M. Paey, G. E. Read, M. E. Davis, D. D., J. M. Jeffress, vice presidents; Prof. J.

Ragsdale, Miss Lucy Addison, vice presidents; J. R. Curtis, corresponding secretary; W. E. Reddick, recording secretary; Mrs. Lucy Stevens, treasurer; Mrs. Ellen I. Gray, secretary of education; L. G. Faltimore, auditor. There were many strong men who visited this meeting and had something to say. The Week in Society BOARD'S.

CHANTICLEER'S RECEPTION. The new Coliseum at Seventh and Pennsylvania avenue, was crowded with Washington's finest on last Wednesday evening, the occasion being the annual fall reception of the famous Chanticleer Social Club. The manager of the big coliseum stated to a representative of The Bee that he was really proud of his gathering and that it was by far the very best this season.

Good service always costs, but is worthy of adequate pay. Street car fare is a big item in the course of months. The salary for supervisors should be at least $1,584 per annum. Experience and executive ability call for proper salary. Many supervisors and laborers have purchased liberty.bonds at heavy person sacrifice, and this evidence of patriotism should have due recognition from the heads of the Government. The Government should be at least as liberal and as generous as those who have sacrificed all to perpetuate our freedom and independence. The time has come for the women to say what shall be a liberal and adequate compensation for labor. Women have had no hand in the making of the laws, hence they could not be considered in the equation. The time has come in which women shall be considered in the great body politic. The responsibilities of women are as great to some extent as those of men, and, in fact, they cannot wear a dress or a hat as long as a man and remain in fashion, hence they are more expensive. With these few remarks I submit to the will of the majority and hope it will see as we I want to say that we have the greatest Government in the world—a Government to which all nations of the earth have bowed and upon them have depended. It surpasses in civilization any government in the world. Future generations will look upon the American flag as the name of a Roman citizen was respected by the enemy. Our women made this Government what it is today. They bore the men who invaded the enemy's camp and brought to this republic what we hope to enjoy—democracy for the world. Then give us what we ask—more money to enable us to exist—because thousands of those who have been a help to us are now buried in the soil of France." THE PARENTS' LEAGUE. At a meeting of the Parents' League held last Monday evening, among other things accomplished, Miss F. M. Hunt moved to publish a paper in the interest of the organization. As long as the league was getting its publications free of cost, it never thought of a paper and neither did it support those who were favorable to it.

With particular interest the Vigilance Committee has followed carefully and closely your editorials and articles for the past three weeks—the 18th and 25th of October and November 1. We read with undivided attention the great work purported to have been done by the National Race Congress. Especial attention was given to the article dealing with the report of Prof. John R. Hawkins, secretary and treasurer of the Emergency Defense Fund of the National Race Congress. We observed with keen vision and much interest that part of the report concerning the great work rendered the victims of the race riot here on July 21, and 22, and the opposition they encountered, and, finally, their triumphant victory. In your editorial of October 25, we note your subject, "Hypocrisy and Ministerial Leadership," and we agree when you say there is too much hypocrisy in ministerial leadership, hence we, like you, would like to have an immediate report from this National Race Congress. You are unquestionably right when you say that the people want to know how much money had been collected prior to the convening of this said National Race Congress. There is and has been much controversy and gossip concerning these funds which were collected and subscribed for the purpose of aiding to pay the fines of the men who were arrested in the recent race riot in this city. The people gave this money, and as they understand that the men and boys have been neglected, they want to know what was done with and what has become of the money they gave. It has been brought to the attention of this Vigilance Committee, circulated tales and what would be infamous lies, if court proof became requisite. It has been stated, so we have been informed from members and officials of the said National Race Congress, that the said Vigilance Committee, working in cooperation, did collect funds from the public, and that these --- REPORT DEMANDED. Store open 9 A! M. to 10 P.M. The Little Store with the Big Reputation REPAIRING A SPECIALTY funds so collected by the Vigilance Committee were squandered and misappropriated. The Vigilance Committee realized something over $300 from the public for the aid of these men. Our money came principally from the theatres and dance halls. Our committee was fair dealing with the Congress. We rendered the secretary and treasurer a report-statement of disbursements and collections. The National Race Congress has never rendered the public a report-statement as to what they have done with the $2,725 collected by them. The Vigilance Committee agrees very much with you in your editorial, but dissents with you when you say there is only one organization in this country that is really doing any work, and that organization is the N. A. A. C. P. We are sure you cannot be so unmindful and derelict for the great work done by the National Equal Rights League and its leader and founder, Wm. Monroe Trotter—he who went to France in the interest of his race, being denied passports by this his government. May I invite your attention to The Guardian for the week of October 18 and ask you to read "The Address to the Country"? We note in your editorial of November 1, where you state that it appears from the dispatches to the daily papers that Editor Trotter of The Guardian was forbidden by the chief of police of Richmond, Va., to speak about "social equality." You also question whether the chief of police forbade Mr. Trotter speak about disfranchisement, lynching, Jim-crow cars and equal educational opportunities. You also state that it appears from dispatches that it states that Mr. Trotter upon conclusion of his address thanked the police, but did not state what he thanked them for, and that we, the people, would like to know for what he did thank them. 'Tis true, we all would like to know if Mr. Trotter did really thank them, and for what. We, who think we know Mr. Trotter best, are of the opinion, if he did thank the police it was because of some courtesy shown him. And we, who know the South well, if not best, are of the opinion that Mr. Trotter may have had to thank them for the sparring of his life. On last Tuesday night Mr. Chandler Owen, editor of The Messenger, delivered an address on "The World Unrest and the Negro." Among some of the things he said, he mentioned that from the night of July 21 he became proud of Washington, D. C., because of the noble and glorious (Continued on seventh page.)

REPORT DEMANDED Continued from page stand taken by the colored men of the city. Yes, we, too, are proud of these courageous colored defenders; but we feel sure if Mr. Owen had been apprised of the fact how these noble, courageous defenders have fared and suffered since the riot, we are quite sure Mr. Owen could and would not be so proud of some of our intellectual calibers of Washington—especially so had he known of all the money that the public had contributed for their release and aid and how this money had been and is being withheld from them. Yes; we are proud of our defenders, but God knows we are ashamed of this intellectual cutthroat crowd of our race, who go about posing as leaders. This class in the race is honestly worse than the Southern Bourbon hoodlum, and they, too, should be given a lesson like that taught the hoodlum on July 21. This is no time for hypocrites, grafters, fakers and false pretenders. What we need now is real men of the race, for the race, who will give and give honestly rather than take and take dishonestly. In conclusion, the Vigilance Committee wishes to thank you most especially for your November 1 issue of The Bee and your timely editorial on "Hypocrisy and Ministerial Leadership," and we sincerely hope you will be successful in obtaining from the National Race Congress a full report, so the people will know what has been done with their $2,725. The people gave the money for a particularly designated purpose, and they are entitled to know what became of the money and if it went for the purpose for which it was contributed. Again we turn to Editor Owen and recall his writings on the churches, "The Failure of the Negro Churches of Today." He claims the reason for the failure to be that they are houses of debits and credits, surpluses and deficits, and they know not what it is when you speak of establishing a community store or doing something for somebody else. We are prone to agree in pro rata if not entirely, and we base our reason upon this National Race Congress, which is almost a ministers' organization; instead of their lifting up and helping and giving praise to the striving and struggling brave, it seems as if they are stumbling blocks in the way. We would ask these accusing hyphenated race men of the National Race Congress to come from behind the curtains and out of the ambushes and make themselves known and state openly their charge that the Vigilance Committee has squandered and misappropriated the money entrusted to them by the public to aid in releasing these unfortunate victims of July 21 and 22. Respectfully yours, W. Thomas Soders, Chairman Vigilance Com. ```markdown ``` Fair and smooth-free from pimples and blotches-bright, lustrous and wholesome looking, is easily and readily obtained through the use of PEOPLE'S DRUG STORES Store No. 1, Seventh and K Streets N.

THE HOME BUILDERS' BUILDING AND LOAN ASSO. OF DEANWOOD The little town of Deanwood, D. C., is one of the most progressive in the northeast. The citizens are always doing something to advance their interests and the interests of the surrounding community. The very latest act that has been inaugurated is the organization of the Home Builders' Building and Loan Association. This new enterprise has been incorporated, and it fills a long-felt want among the people. This association is to better the housing conditions in Deanwood and does more than build houses; it loans money to responsible persons to erect their houses. Its object is to protect and help the home builders of Deanwood, and the organization is composed of some of the most reliable and progressive citizens in this vicinity. Every citizen should join this organization because there are responsible and reliable people connected, with it. The association was incorporated in 1919 with a capital stock of $500. The incorporators are: Thomas J. Savage, Randolph Dodd, Joshua Wilson, Logan Johnson, Henry S. Washington, Jacob Dodd, George T. Veney, George H. Butler, George H. Oddrick, James W. Holbrook, Marshall F. Anderson, W. W. Barton, Dudley W. Turner, James V. V. Crusoe, William H. Booth. Board of directors, T. J. Savage, president; H. S. Washington, secretary, M. F.

SOUTHERN—In sad but loving remembrance of our devoted sister, Henrietta Ford Southern, who departed this life one year ago today, November 27, 1918. One year has passed since we laid our dear Henrietta to rest In her grave not far away; But the time, the place, the hour Seems to us only yesterday. How well we remember the pain she bore, With a spirit ever bright; And today it seems we hear her yet, As we listen in the night. We miss her, yes, we miss her In the days that come and go. But her heart was pure, her life so young, Yet not our will but God's be done. The devoted sisters, Mildred M. Ford and Mrs. C. C. Saunders. MIRROR HOSPITAL. R. R. Delancy, resilvering of mirrors.
