A SOLDIER'S LETTER FROM FRANCE.
(Special to the Blade.)
The food administration in Michigan credits the Lansing State Journal with the following:
Roy E. Carver, of the medical department. One hundred and nineteenth Field Artifery, writes in an interesting way of food conditions and the country in France. He says, in part: "The people here buy food only when they have a food card. If they have no food card they can't buy. Soldiers are not allowed to buy any food in a city. They have to buy what extra food they want in camp where there is an extra place provided for that purpose. Then they can buy only 8 pence worth at a time. Here is one place where money will not talk.
"Take my tip and tell the people not to waste food. They don't see now, but if they were placed as these foreign countries are they would realize it then. You see the people are allowed only so much so that the soldiers can have more. We get good healthy stuff to eat here. I like the war bread better than I do white bread. It is something like brown bread and sure is nourishing. We have sugar in our coffee and are certainly living high for soldiers."

MISS IRENE MULLEN
614 Bradford St., Minneapolis, Minnesota
Merit counts, strict application to business with a desire to render sufficient service has always been a stepping stone to higher and better things. Such is the case of Miss Mullen, who from the humble position of usher has arisen to the position of trust and honor of one of the largest corporations in Hennepin County. In this promotion the race gains recognition and should applaud and congratulate the company and Miss Mullen. Envy, malice and begrudgefulness should disappear. Miss Mullen is charming in manners, lovely in disposition, strict and efficient in business. She is a high school graduate and has made good of her parents' teaching. May this be but a beginning of similar positions for our race

REV. T. B. STOVALL,
Pastor St. Paul A. M. E. Church,
Minneapolis, Minn.
It is with pardonable pride that we present to our thousands of readers the likeness of the able gospel preacher. For more than 18 years he has been in the Ministry pastoring in Chicago, Superior, Racine, Beloit and Delevan Wis., and Oskaloosa, Fairfield Washington and Davenport, Iowa. He is now stationed at St. Peter's Minneapolis, and has endeared himself in the hearts not only of his congregation but the good people of Hennipen County irrespective of color. Coming to St. Peters four years ago, he found a membership of 148 and the church badly in need of repairs. Since that time he has increased the membership to more than four hundred, made and paid for repairs to the extent of $2,000 and all floating debts, bought a duplex twelve-room parsonage, one-half block from the church on Elliott Ave., costing $2,500, and paid on same $1,300. Such a record stands out for itself and deserves the commendation of the whole connection. Dr. Stovall's life has been one of continual service for the Church and his people. He under-

took the impossible at Davenport, Iowa. Rev. W. W. Williams had started a $10,000 structure and failed in five years. This Christian war horse liquidated the debt and added several hundred to the church. At Fairfield he built a church edifice at a cost of $3,700, furnished and paid for the same, left it clear of debt.
He is a financial member of St. Anthony Blue Lodge, Odd Fellows, P. M. Council and Most Venerable Patriarchy, K. of P. No. 2 Chicago; Elks Ames Lodge 506 Minneapolis, Hiram No. 19 F. & A.

Stovall, Jr., Co. B, L. Bn.
Rev. Stovall, during all these busy years, found time to prepare himself and keep abreast with the times. He studied in Moody Institute, Chicago, and Penn College, Oskaloosa, Iowa, and Scribner High School.
The Church is systematically organized with the following officers, Rev. J. R. Collins, Local Preacher, Stewardess J. A. Abby, J. W. Burt, J. W. Collins, A. J. Evans, Ed. Hammonds, O. C. Uptergrove, Clay Williams, J. W. Payterson, Church Steward.

Scissord Thoughts
That the Negro is advancing steadily and effectively into the fields of literature, one only need turn his attention to some of the present writers of books, magazines and newspapers published everywhere in America. The critics who deyre the possibilities of the black race in literature, will have to hang up their old prejudice howl forever, if they read Negro literature. Galveston New Idea
The average white person has such an aversion to the Negro that as soon as one becomes frightened or receives a nervous shock he simultaneously has a hallucination of being attacked by a Negro. An honest and impartial investigation would disclose the fact that nearly one half of the crimes charged to Negroes were either not committed at all or were committed by others under circumstances similar to those surrounding the case above.
Journal and Guide
There will be much of this war left after the battles have been fought. It will be a peaceful conflict, however, carried on to give our democracy its right meaning. We are far short of that knowledge. The human relation is poor-
THE NEGRO AND THE WAR
The colored people are rallying to the call of patriotism all over the country. They are giving their sons, their money, and their energies to the task of mobilizing the Nation for the cause of democracy. For the Negro holds his citizenship high. The friends of the United States are his friends. Its foes are his foes. Thirty-six per cent of all the Negroes examined were certified as physically fit for the National Army, a ratio higher than the whites can show. In 16 cantonments scattered throughout the Northern and Southern States the dusky troops are being prepared to meet the Hun.
In the old Regular Army of the pre-war days were four colored regiments, the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantry and the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry. These troops proved their value in Cuba during the Spanish-American War, just as they did in the Indian campaigns on the border. They are notably steady under fire, patient to endure hardship, cheerful and good-natured at all times. And they can fight.
The War Department has organized a division of colored troops, known as the Ninety-second. To lead these men 750 colored officers were commissioned after a course of training at Fort Dodge, Iowa. Already a number of Negro chaplains have been named to serve with these and more are soon to be appointed. Three regiments of Artillery have been formed and a school for Signal Corps training has been organized. At least 150 Negroes are engaged in Y. M. C. A. work in the Army. Some of these are now in France with the troops serving under Gen. Pershing.
Back of the actual fighting army is the army of civilians at home. The Negroes of the country have joined in every activity that evinces a spirit of patriotism. They show a whole-hearted desire to take their full share of the war load. They support the principles understood. We have been so deeply engrossed in our rights that we have forgotten our duties. The chief duty of the future democracy will be to make us remember them, not by statute or decree, but by the spirit of humanity, which the dreadful war is getting into the hearts of men
The lesson of the trench and the shell will be the lesson of good will and charity for all. One cannot conceive of a small, selfish citizen coming out of the trenches or off of the cannon deck. There is going to be a grander vision for all. This will prove as much a matter of logic as it is when the blue skies follow the tumult of the storm. It is not a dream, but a glorious fact that dawns. Every man and woman must be a part of it.
—Ohio State Journal.
Mr. Man, do not hurt your wife's feelings by demanding that she give you your regular work chops. Let her help in her kitchen way to end the war, so that her men folks will not be called to the front. She may not give you everything you want to eat, but she will give you plenty of food and it will taste good too. Surprise friend wife by asking her to make you a one-dish meal. Yes, the woman in the kitchen is helping to win the war. —San Antonio Inquirer.
TOO MUCH "OUR SOLDIERS'
Members of our race are too selfish in speaking of their work "for colored soldiers." We should do what we can for our men and when we contribute to the general cause we are helping our boys in war. Special work should be done for them on special occasions, and we should see that our men are not neglected. Let us be as liberal as the other races. It has not yet appeared that Negroes are excluded from the Red Cross benefits. Our boys will get their share in equal proportion, even if we did not contribute anything. Let us work for The American Red Cross. Boys in black have received many comforts in this and other war, long before their women took any active interest in their welfare. Are the white women knitting for white soldiers only? Miss Clara Barton recognized Negroes among her workers in the Spanish American war and The Red Cross knows no color line, unless we establish it. God forbid!
Buy War Savings Stamps to the utmost of your financial capacity and then increase your capacity by saving more.
which President Wilson has defined for us, and they assume cheerfully the burden laid upon the country as a whole. The way that the colored citizen has taken hold of the Liberty loan is encouraging. The Mosaic Temple, with headquarters in Arkansas, subscribed $25,000 to the first Liberty loan and later invested an additional $50,000. Recently Secretary McAdoo telegraphed the Knights of Pythias of Florida, another colored order, his appreciation of their subscription of $25,000 for bonds. The Provident and Mutual Insurance Co. of Durham, N. C., put $5,000 of its spare funds in the loan.
Both white and colored speakers have toured the country to enthuse the Negroes for the Liberty loan and the response has been eager and enthusiastic, an emphatic repudiation of the German propaganda which has attempted to stir up the colored part of our population to sedition.
The war has brought to the Negro a better chance for national self-expression than any event in his history, and he is making the most of his opportunity. Much of the best talent of the race has been absorbed in meeting the need caused by speeding up war industries. Graduates of colleges and technical schools have found a ready field for the use of their knowledge and trained skill. The demand for educated Negroes has exceeded the supply.
No such impetus has ever before been given to education for the Negro. It is true that the illiteracy of the race has decreased from 90 per cent at the close of the civil war to 30 per cent today, but the necessity of wiping out ignorance has been called sharply to our attention by the demands which the war is making upon our man power. The proper training of the Negro is a problem which concerns both races. To leave one-third of the colored people undeveloped is failure to utilize the resources of the Nation.
HON. F. L. CROSS
St. Paul, Minn.
While in the Twin Cities last week our editor had the pleasure of calling upon Hon. F. L. Cross, formerly of the Madison Gas and Electric Co. We were cordially greeted and most heartily welcomed in his private office, chatted of Madison and Madisonians of which Mr. Cross still holds an estimable fondness. He had just a few days prior to our call entertained Hon. C. L. Miller of the Guardian Life. Mr. Cross sends best wishes to his many friends of Madison and will pay the city a visit in short to chase a few balls around the old Golf Link.
THE NATIONAL ADVOCATE.
Minneapolis, Minn.
The Advocate is a permanent fixture in Minnesota, circulating in 47 different States. Its Editor, R, B. Montgomery, is a man with an indomitable will, plenty push and a hustler from the word go. Our Editor spent last week in the Twin Cities and found out first handed that Bro. Montgomery enjoys the full confidence of the best people of the State irrespective of color and position. The attempted frame-up of some weeks ago met the disapproval of many of the best citizens. Indeed it made friends and subscribers for the great Weekly. Keep at it "Mont". Right will win, continue to bag the coin.
War Savings Stamps help provide that "Force, force to the utmost, force without stint or limit, the righteous and triumphant force which shall make right the law of the world," which President Wilson says must be used against our enemies.
Your common sense will tell you that you cannot buy now all the things you bought before we had a war to win. Your buying must be restricted and your savings invested in War Savings Stamps.

"A WORD TO THE WIRE"
Everybody says the thrift stamp plan is splendid, that it will advantage the government and that both immediately and in the future it will advantage the individual. Everybody thereupon resolves to buy some stamps or to start baby with a collection of them, and then forgets about it. Forgetting about obvious and profitable duties will not win the war, will not develop as it ought to be developed the habit of honest thrift, and will not entitle any man or woman to a sense of having done the right thing.
Talk about thrift stamps. Recommend thrift stamps. Then buy thrift stamps. If you don't do the last thing all the rest are hollow.
