Popular, Positive and Unassuming Capt. Chas, J. Echols, a native of the Metropolis of the southland Atlanta, Ga., the county of Fulton, is now commanding Co. K 365, Inf., at Camp Grant, Rockford, Ill. His indominatable spirit and tenacious will power have displayed themselves ever since he was a lad. The same attributes won for him the admiration and support of that worthy statesman Hon. F. I. Wimbly, who befriended him often and gave him some wholesome and paternal advice that imbibed in the mind of the youth the ambition to make a name for himself. Following his natural bent he selected the army as his field and enlisted at Chatanooga, Tenn. 14 years of active service in the U.S. army has caused the dashing officer to be vell versed in military training. His many friends in Atlanta, Ga., and Chattanooga, Tenn., feel proud of his record. He sends them remembrance through the Blade. REPUBLICANS TO HAVE NATIONAL WEEKLY PAPER AT NATIONAL CAPITAL The National Republican, the weekly Republican publication which attained a circulation of 200,000 in the Middle West during the campaign of 1916, is being removed to Washington, D.C., where a modern plant has been installed for its future publication. It is expected to make the paper in fact as well as in name the national Republican weekly. It is an eight-page paper in newspaper form, and will carry weekly a condensed review of politics and public affairs, with special attention to proceedings at the national capital. The purpose will be to place in the hands of the voter compact, comprehensive information which will keep him in touch with the trend of affairs and enable him intelligently to read and discuss American politics. The circulation of the National Republican already extends to every state in the Union, and it is expected to develop a circulation of a million copies or more weekly. The subscription price of the paper is $1 per year. It can be ordered at this office, either independently or in conjunction with this paper. MUSICAL COLUMN (By Gee Cleff) This column will chronical the doing of the Umbrian Gee Club and other musical organizations each week and will be in charge of James A.

Mr. Quinney Turner made a short visit to Ft. Estill Sunday. Jno. Jackson. The sooner the irresistible might of this great Republic is organized and put into full action the sooner the war will end. Every dollar invested in Government securities works to shorten the war, to save the lives of American soldiers and sailors. U.S. First Lieut. U. J. ROBINSON Chaplain, S. A. 365, Inf., Rockford, Ill. Being the First Race Chaplain Appointed to N. A. The subject of this sketch was born in Wadley, Clark Co., Ala. 1883. At an early age he entered the graded school of his vicinity and was soon in attendance of the Thomasville Academy, after finishing the prescribed course graduating with honor, he entered Selma University, completed both. Normal and Theological School with degree B. D. His early Christian rearing and influence instilled in him good traits and ambition to do work for the Lord. His father was one of Alabama's pioneer preachers and a venerable nestor of the cause and race. Chaplain Robinson was a conspicious figure in Alabama Baptist conventions and associations and was becomming a national character. His last effort was an introductory sermon at the Ala. State Convention, during its 50th Jubilee. It was a master piece and was declared by thousands of delegates so and leading divines He has had charge of some of the state's best churches, among them being Mt. Olive Baptist, Anniston. Ala., from which he resigned to enter the army. The good people loathe to give him up and assured him that the latch string of welcome was on the outside, and that they would be delighted to have him return. Chaplain Robinson brings to the army a consecrated Christian life, possessing that force, called magnetism, which draws rather than expell. His duties are of a varied and tried nature. The men, from the highest officer to the rear rank private, are daily becoming imbued and innoculated with that Christian atmosphere. He is ever ready to help along the line, that tends to make better, useful, Christian men of the boys. He is a firm believer in, and safe teacher of that true democratic spirit in recreation. FROM KENTUCKY SHORTEN THE WAR MADRID COUNTRY HONORARY MUSEUM MADISON, WIS., THURSDAY APRIL 4, 1918 Easter found Beloiters awaiting her arrival with joy. The predominating spirit was that of ite, hope, and gratitude to Him who is Lord of all. Programs were rendered by both, the Methodist and Baptist Church Sunday Schools. The children did credit to themselves and honor to the cause of the Master in song and speech. The officers of Emanuel Baptist Church wish to thank for special favors, Mesdames K. Mayo, Allen, H. Mehan, M. Bell, R. L. Guyton, Miss O. Bell, Mr. Scott, W. S. Williams and Mrs. J. G. Fox. Out of town visitors were legions. Mrs. A. B.

Mr. Willyard and family, Mill St., are now residing at 1351 Broad St. Why not join the "Blades" 9,000 readers' happy circle and be served right. We have many to tell us each week how much they "miss the Blade". Some good, wide-awake boy or girl in Beloit could earn big money handling the Blade each week. Why not get in touch with the Madison office at once on this question? LENDING THEIR BEST CUSTOMERS The proceeds of the Liberty loan including the greater part of that loaned to our Allies, are being spent for American products—the products of our factories, our farms, our mines, and other industries. In lending to the United States the people of the United States are lending to their best and largest customer and obtaining the safest investment in the world. THE MONEY COMES BACK The circle of money invested in Liberty Bonds is short and complete. The people lend the money to the Government, the Allies, and our Government and our Allies straightway spend the money, or the greater portion of it, among the people of the United States. In some instances the money paid in by wage earners on one installment of Liberty Bonds is paid by the Government to their employers, and by their employers paid back to them in the way of wages before the next Bond installment is due.

The Young Women's Christian Association, 3424 Rhodes Ave., is about to make a special drive for 2000 new members. The present site has outgrown its capacity for accommodating girls who are continually arriving in the city without friends or acquaintances, therefore it is necessary to seek a larger building, better facilitated for the needs of the association.

THE SPECIAL ELECTION WHO MADE THE GENERAL? - Now that the Special Election for U, 8. Senator is a thing of the past, pechaps we can ealmly con- sider it and the discussions pre- ceeding its call and determine whether it justified the expense and disturbance entailed. We were one of those who opposed a special election — who believed that the selection of a suecessor to the late Paul Husting, for the few months that would elapse be: fore the general election in the fall. might safely be left with the governor, We then said in our isste of November 29, 1917: We understand that the cost to the state of holding a special election will approximate $200,- 000, exchasive of the costs to in- dividual candidates and others which must be incurred at any time. We do not believe that the xood results to be obtained will compensate for this large ex- penditure of the people's money. It may be true that, by the atti- tnde of our senior Senator, some doubt has been cast upon the loyalty of Wise nsin and her peo- ple, Tut if ox: subseriptions. to the Liberty Loans, our eontribu- tions to the Red Cross and Y.

It seems: that some Sergeant of his Divi- sion entered a theatre somewhere and objeted to being treated un- hecomingly by the manager. His resentment reached the ears of the. Commander who now takes the occasion to remind *‘all colored officers and men’ (where in the world does he get the authority to be spokesman to all colored of- fieers and men!) that nine-tenths: of the country’s population — is white: that the remaining one- tenth should not do “anything, no matter how legally correct that will provoke’? the animus of the other nine-tenths. Further, “* white men? made the Division, and they ean break it.” Who Made the General True it may be that ‘white men wade the Division’ but did it ever dawn upon you that black men made the General?

Besides this large expenditure of money in a cause of doubtful effect, money so much needed ut this time or other purposes of greater importance there is the other question of diverting the thoughts of the people from those larger matters that ought to en- gross their entire attention, An vlection at this time, to serve the purpose aimed at, must be waged with a vigor commensurate with its supposed importance. There is no assurance that the issue may not be so beclouded by the en- trance of so many candidates as to raise doubts in minds where none now exist, and thus defeat its very purpose It should be the aim of all who desire to see this state lined up behind the President in the prosecution of this war to do nothing and permit nothing that will further divide the people.” We see nothing in the result of this election to justify our chang. ing our views, but rather every- thing to strengthen them. with the Mth Infantry in 1912.
