As Christmas will have come and gone before our next issue, we take this opportunity to extend to our subscribers, advertisers, readers, well-wishers and friends a very hearty and sincere MERRY CHRISTMAS As the season of good-will and cheer approaches we become more conscious of the many things for which we should be thankful and the many obligations under which we are to those who have given us their support during the year about to pass into Eternity. And while it takes money to run a newspaper and it has not always been supplied us in such amounts as our needs demand, yet we are not unmindful nor unappreciative MERRY CI MERRY CHRISTMAS! MERRY CHRISTMAS! Dane County's New Sheriff HON. JULIUS KRUG Mr. H. D. Carsey The Blade was informed by long distant phone call that Mr. H. D.

This we have had in most generous quantities and from the public generally.

Windsor of Rayville, La., and the Twelve-Star Service Pin Presented to Him by the American Red Cross. Having the right to and needing a twelve-star service pin, the Rev. R. H. Windsor of Rayville, La., a zealous Red Cross worker, has been presented with a unique decoration by the American Red Cross. The father of nineteen sons, twelve of whom are with the colors, this genial colored minister of the Baptist church probably holds the record for sons in the military service of the United States. If there are any others with similar or better status, they are yet to be heard from. In the accompanying illustration of the twelve-star pin, topped with the Red Cross insignia, it will be noted that the first bar bears five stars. These represent five individual sons—Bennie, Robbin, Jeff, Johnnie and Archie. The next bar bears two stars representing twins, George and Lafayette; the next bar is similarly decorated, representing William and James, also twins; and the bottom bar, with its three stars, represents the triplets, Matthew Mark and Luke. Eight of the boys are volunteers, and the other four were called in the draft. Upon hearing of the remarkable record of the Windsor family, President Wilson, who is also president of the American Red Cross, wrote to the Rev. Mr. Windsor as follows: "I am writing to say with what interest and admiration I have learned of the fact that twelve of your sons are in the service of our country, and the thirteenth impatiently waiting to follow them in. This is a splendid record, and I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. The colored troops have proved themselves fine soldiers." Pack Carefully A total of 27,541 small shipments offered the U. S. Railroad Administration were refused during the four months in one middle western district recently because of faulty packing. Of these shipments 14,570 were repaired but 12,971 were rejected entirely. Pack carefully, especially at this season of the year. A. B. MRS. BLANCHE ALEXANDER One of Milwaukee's Leading Club Women BELOIT NOTES Sunday, Dec. 15th the Colored people of Beloit met to organize a branch of the Co-operative Development Association. It was a grand success, an enormous crowd being present. They expect to go into organization Sunday, Dec. 22nd. Rev. Z. P. Smith, Madion, who is in Beloit conducting a series of meetings for Rev G. J. Fox, made a visit to Rockford in company with Mr. Wm. S. Williams. He was gladly received by Mr. J. H. Kemp and family and many other friends from Madison. Little Jas. Gordon, son of Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Gordon, is much better at this writing. He met with an accident two weeks ago by falling under a Fairbanks Morris truck. His leg was broken above the knee. Rev. Z. P. Smith is preaching some hopeful sermons and we are hopeful of great results. 10 P. M. N. G. FLORENCE TITUS Chicago, Ill. Member H. H. 1277. Organizer of Distinction A HAMPTON SOLDIER ENJOYS GERMAN LUXURIES After weeks of hard fighting "in the open," the fortunes of war brought a former Hampton boy to a German rest camp in France which he describes as follows: "This camp was composed of numerous little bungalows. They were very pretty, with the fences, gardens, and flower boxes which surrounded them. They contained stoves, desks, beds, carved chairs and lounges, cutglass lamps, and every other thing imaginable. The furniture in many of them was home made and stained. It was wonderful work and very beautiful. In the dining-room of one house I found a table spread with bread, butter, A MRS. HARRY BALLARD Milwaukee. Wis. An accomplished housewife and entertainer. coffee, and spuds. Everything tasted good except the bread. That was terrible stuff—wet, sour, and heavy. "There were plenty of good soft beds in every cottage. The first night it was too risky to try one of them, as the Germans were sure to start shelling the places they had so recently left, therefore I made my bunk on the ground beside a pile of railroad ties. The next night the temptation was too great, and I piled up in one of the beds. Later in the day I scouted about and guess what I found—a clean white enameled bathub, something I had not seen since I left the States. It was not long before I was splashing in my new-found luxury. "I wish it were possible to keep all the souvenirs I found, but we have so many things of our own to carry, and we have to do so much marching that we have no room for souvenirs. All that I carried away was a German officer's belt. On the buckle are these words, 'Gott mit uns.' Those words were out of place with the former owner of the belt, but now they are rather fitting, as God is with us!" Southern * Workman. A. E. MISS LYDIA SCOTT Milwaukee. Wis. Who is making an excellent record for herself and race in the Normal School of Milwaukee county. THE RACE PROGRESSING IN WEST VIRGINIA Special to the Blade. Charleston, W. Va.—When the West Virginia legislature convenes in January for the 1919 session, three colored men will take seats in the lower house. This excels the record of any state since the days of reconstruction. The successful candidates, nominated in primaries and elected on the Republican ticket are: J. V. Coleman, of Fayette county, former postmaster at Kimberly, now engaged in the production of coal; H. J. Capehart, of McDowell county, an attorney at law; and T. G. Nuttor, former grand exalted ruler of the Elks, at present grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias. Mr. Nutter is also an attorney. Both Fayette and McDowell countie have had colored legislators before, the former three and the latter one, but at no time has there been more than one Colored representative in the legislature. The nomination and election of these men is considered remarkable for the fact that in none of the counties which they represent is there a majority of Colored voters, the per cent in McDowell being 34, Fayette 22 and Kanawha 10.

He was auditor of the Fargo Express Company's office. On the first Monday in January the new state officers will start their terms. There will be no inauguration ceremonies. Gov. Philipp, who begins his third term of office next month, is not expected to make any changes in his official family. L. C. Whittet will continue as the chief advisor in the executive office and M. F. Blumenfeld will be re-appointed as superintendent of public property. A. B. D. G. M. N. G. AFFRETTA MIL- LER. Cairo, Ill.

In making this announcement today the war department gave no explanation, but the assumption here is that the division has been selected as a reserve unit held to reinforce the American army of occupation in Germany.

It may be somewhat early to mention a motion picture reel that the Association has secured entitled "Coal Is King" and which will be run in connection with the regular pictures at the New Strand, Dec. 27th, but this is a coal conservation film of high character, instructive, interesting, and should not be missed. Food Rules Not Annulled. The regulations are not annulled by the food administration on account of the armistice. Modifications may be made by the Food Administration from time to time but the specific regulations limiting margins of profit and preventing boarding have not been removed and there is no present intention of dropping these restricions, which, it is said will be rigidly enforced. Boys' and Girls' Club Work $20,000 worth of farm products were produced by the boys and girls of Dane County during the past season, due to the work of the boys and girls club leader, E. J. Cooper, who was secured through the activities of the Sheep and Wool Committee of the Association in co-operating with the Dane County Council of Defense and the College of Agriculture. This result should open the eyes of many merchants who desire to help their farmer neighbors in Dane county. What will the harvest be next year? MILWAUKEE DIRECTORY Churches. A. M.

THE INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC More than two hundred residences in Madison have been quarantined since the new outbreak of the influenza epidemic. Health officers are regarding the mixing of people in crowded places during influenza times as very dangerous. If people would come to realize that fact and keep away from crowds the health authorities would be greatly helped in stamping out the epidemic. A week ago the new cases of influenza reported averaged about 25 daily. Beginning Saturday the number has decreased one-half or so.

A NEGRO'S FAITH IN AMERI CAN JUSTICE "I should be happy to have millions of colored soldiers over here fighting to preserve the dearest and highest valued thing on earth, to the nations of the world and to future generations—liberty. I would be more than happy to have them die, if need be, as a tangible expression of their determination that 'the government of the people, by the people, shall not perish from the earth.' "I am not apprehensive of the future of my people in the States, for the free allied nations of the world will not condone America's past treatment of her colored citizens in the future; for shall we not have fought beside the best blood, the best white blood in all the world in the holiest war of all ages? Shall we not have shown that we are willing, nay, eager to pay, and pay dearly, in our blood for the right of the peoples of the earth to share equally in its blessings, to enjoy the same rights, to receive equal justice, to have a voice in their government by our blood contribution? So I go forward certain and sure that my people will share equally with the Armenian and the Serb in the fruits of the triumph of right over might and democracy over autoocracy. Death is nothing, for I love my race more than life itself." Lleut, O. E.

GUARDS SHOW LITTLE RESPECT FOR SOLDIERS' COUNCIL Soldiers of the Fifth infantry regiment of the guards division, who entered Berlin today, administered a direct snub to Herr Molkenbuhr, who is chairman of the soldiers' section of the workmen's and soldiers' executive council, says an Associated Press dispatch from the German capital dated Saturday. It is difficult to find any other interpretation than that the troops from the front have little respect for the Berlin soldiers' council. The assembled troops were addressed by Lieut. Gen. Lequis, former governor of Metz, who closed with a cheer for the fatherland, in which the troops joined voiciferously. Molkenuhr then mounted the tribune and began reading a speech, whereupon the regiment, stationed directly in front of the stand, shouldered arms and started towards the Brandenburg gate with its band playing. Other regiments followed, passing within twenty feet of where Molkenuhr still was making a valiant effort to finish his speech. When he brought his address to an end the square was half empty and his voice was drowned by the sound of marching feet and martial music, with an occasional hoot. This is not the first incident indicating that soldiers from the front do not think highly of the council, which includes few men direct from the firing line. Marshall Cousins of Eau Claire, recently appointed state bank commissioner, assumed his duties Monday.

WHITE SOUTH FEARS COLOR ED UPRISING Richmond, Va., Nov. 30.—One problem that is causing grave concern here is the large purchase of fire arms and munitions by the Negroes of the city. They reached a point a few days ago which called forth a special meeting of the State Council of Defence. The result of the meeting was a circular being sent broadcast urging dealers to refrain from selling further ammunition and firearms to Negroes. While the proceedings of the meeting were secret, it is understood leaders of the Negro element were summoned and told what must be done. At the same time an order went out strengthening the home guard organizations. From indirect sources it is rumored that Negroes have issued a statement that once their soldiers have returned from Europe they intend to force the white man to give them equal rights. This latter situation is viewed with alarm by many of the leading citizens. A total of $3,229 has been donated to the Madison General Hospital association in response to the Thanksgiving membership campaign recently inaugurated. Wolff, Kubly & Hirsig Co.

Berger of Milwaukee violated the espionage law and the anti-war campaign he carried on as editor of the Milwaukee Leader was presented to the jury in Judge Landis' court Monday in the trial of five socialists. The trial began early last week. J. E. Harris, formerly managing editor of Berger's paper, testified Monday. He stated that he resigned in May --- KIDDIE KA9S Wagens for The Boys $3.50 up to $7.50 Sleds for The Kiddies Wabash Flyer $1:50 and up Flexible Flyer all sizes $3 up to $12 1918, because of a dispute with Berger over an order received to print for the second time a proclamation of the war program of the St. Louis socialist convention. The witness said he had been criticized by Mr. Berger for the way in which war news had been handled at times. Berger insisted on using Berlin dispatches as leaders; he said they were more reliable. On cross ex-amination Harris admitted that Berger had on numerous occasions printed editorials attacking the kaiser and junker class in Germany. Hon. B. J.

His manly stand on all questions, his plain speech, his honest methods, his unassuming manners have conspired to make him a great power in the Odd Fellows Fraternity and the race. He is obviously one of the safest leaders, the race has produced, and it is fortunate that thinking men in the ranks of the Order have long since agreed that he is equal to every responsibility and every duty the Fraternity imposes upon him. His home and headquarters are located in Atlanta, Ga. In this THE BANK OF NEW YORK "Fighting Ben" knows no failure. A man who stands for so much and who has achieved so much for the material up building of the race can not long be stigmatized or held in contempt once his history is well known.

Ben Davis has for himself a name and example worthy of emulation. No man can do great things without creating emmities. THE MUSEUM OF THE WORLD'S FINE ARTS faith in his race stands as a moment to his genius for organizing members of the Negro race.

This impression is wholly unfounded and is doubtless due to confusion of the insurance provisions of the War Risk Insurance Act with those relating to compensation which apply whether the soldier carries insurance or not. If a soldier dies as the result of injury or disease suffered in the line of duty regardless of whether he has applied for and taken out insurance, the compensation is payable to his wife and children, and also to his dependent father or mother, or both if he is survived by such dependents. Therefore, awards of compensation to the father or mother of a deceased soldier cannot be made unless proof of their dependency is presented.

Friend Josey: A few lines to let you know that your old friend and Comrade is still alive. First time since I left Camp Grant that I had spare time to write to any one so I am making you the first. My best regards to the Madam and inquiring friends, I have been through HELL, you know 'the rest. Our boys, have done well, first place in every battle. The German's were afraid of our boys, they never did stand and fight us, we had to carry the fight to them all the time, kept us tired and worn out trying to catch up with them to get a fight out of them. We will rest now for a few days as the Armistice have reached us. I know that the Germans are glad especially those on our front. We caught prisoners, who were frightened to death, they thought we would kill them and when they found we were all Americans they talked their silly selves to sleep. Well I must close, hoping to be home soon. Your Old Pal. Charles. P. S.—I am commanding my battalion (3d Battalion, 36th Inf.) My commander is in the hospital gassed. Capt. C. J. Echols, Jr. A, P.

FEARING Battalion Adj. 365th Infantry T. CAPT. WILLIAM W. GREEN Condg. Co. H. 36th Infantry American Exp. Force Nov. 26, 1918 Dear Joe Just a few words to you before breakfast. You no doubt have almost forgotten old friends. I must first congratulate you on the punctual arrival of the Blade. We all congratulate you upon the issues received during our stay in France. The editorials have been especially good. All the 365th eagerly book for the coming of the Blade. I notice from several papers you are becoming one of the big Odd Fellows. I wish you all the success possible. I hope the order will soon be able to rid itself of such demagogues. While not a member I am a well wisher for so great an order. Well, Joe, I have seen war in all of its horrors. I have had them shot down at my side, and heard my comrades mourn and seen them bleed and die. I am one of the most thankful men in the A. E. F. I am now back with Captain Mills. During the time the regiment was on the front lines I was in Captain Green's Company. He is the same old man he always was. He gave me a very fine recommendation when I left him. Remember me to Mrs. Carmichael. I am certain she has been praying for me and her son. Tell her Battle sends regards. Captain Mills says Hello. He is the finest captain in the entire army. The boys are all well and happy, and our war record will speak for itself Remember me to Mrs. Josey. With best regards. R. C. Atkins. Nov. 14, 1918. Dear Joe: Well I suppose that you know that the fighting is all over but things will not be brought to a close for a month or so, then we will know more definitely just what is what. Then and not until then will we be permitted to send uncensored letters containing things of news value. I have now in my possession several trinkets for the Blade's office, as souvenirs of what I have passed through and will try to mail them as soon as I get near a post office such as a German helmet and gas mask and other equipment that I procured without killing the wearer. I was fortunate enough to be on the front when the last shot was fired without being hurt. I will tell you more of that later. I also have a stick that I use for a cane that I cut from a field after the Armistice was declared. Of course I will try to carry everything I have and hope to get it to you in some manner unless I have bad luck. I heard yesterday that Will's outfit had not met with much loss while in the war, so I am hoping the best for him. There is much lamentation here on account of the prevalence of Spanish influenza in the States and it has not touched you or yours as yet. There is not much of it here. There is also some talk about the killing of those Medies at Camp Grant. The boys all seem to be glad they were caught. We have been much on the move ever since I wrote you last. Undoubtedly you will perceive that the other letter was written on German paper, it was some that I found in a dug out and at that time paper was scarce. Well we are expecting to "hike away" again soon so I will close. Will try to send the Little Church a Xmas present but it will be in French money since we have no other. You can get it changed there I hope. I have much to be thankful for and I am duly thankful for it. Hoping to hear from you soon I am Yours truly, Marshall. Sergt. M. O'Bannon, A. E. F. Your letter of the 4th inst. has been in hand a day or so now. I am always glad to have a line from you. The Blade is coming quite regularly now. I enjoy it extremely. You need to feel highly complimented for the newsy sheet you edit. The boys are tickled to death with it. You desire news. Well I suppose the biggest thing that can be said now is we have lost our General. General Martin, formerly of Grant, comes to us. Don't know where our former General goes. It is though, in well informed circles, that the much discussed and perhaps ill advised Bulletin 35 followed by you. Who Made the General? finally proved his undoing. Such is not at all improbable. You know it takes time. I have noticed no general sorrowing over the change. I wish I could have been permitted to write as I have felt. The censor forbade. I have, however, written in form of letters a suceint history of my impressions. When I am discharged, I shall probably publish, in series, those letters in your paper and then put them in book form as a permanent memento of the war. Many requests for such a publication from my pen are already in. What do you think of the idea? When the history of the great war is written, one of the most gratifying facts will be that the Negro fired the last shot. The troops to approach nearest to Metz, that impregnable German fortress, were black soldiers of the 92nd Division. When on the memorable 11th of November the clarion sounded to cease firing the fighting 3635th was charging upon an objective like madmen. Machine gun nests, heavy artillery fire or even deadly gas furnished no barrier to these heroes. They were not led by white men either. The Battalions with perhaps a single exception were commanded by black Captains. After the armistice, the hungry Germans rushed over to our boys and made friends with those who but a few moments ago were their enemies. May I say in closing that no men or group have worked harder and deserved more than our colored officers. Although the promotions among the fighting forces could probably be counted on one hand with fingers to spare we have striven, nevertheless, to deserve more. Nor have we felt discouraged when our white brother officer in arms advanced. Our patience in this regard, let us hope, opens a better day. Surely by the time the next great war is fought, we shall have commended ourselves to the fullest consideration. Now that the big show is over, our men are longing for dear old America. Certainly I shall call upon you at Madison. Especially so if we are returned to Grant and mustered out. Very truly vurs. Henry E. Dunn, 350th Machine Gun Battalion, A. E. F., via N. Y. Dr. Thos. A. Boger, Milwaukee, Wis. Dear Tom: I guess you are not so busy these days since you have the "Flu" under control. I received a letter from my wife stating she had given you my letter. When have you heard from Hank? The fellow who is first sergeant of my company had Hank as a teacher at Tuskegee. So this world is not so large after all. How is your supply of smokes these days? I am sorry I cannot help you, but don't worry as the time is not as long as it has been. I received a letter from the firm stating that all of my department were ill. Well this is my first Thanksgiving on foreign soil and I hope my last. What is Vernie Moore doing this year? Occasionally I see a few boys of the 92nd Division and ask about some of the officers I know. Give my best wishes to all and write soon. Dean. Supply Sergt. C. H. D. Mohr, Co. C. 329 La. Bn., A. P.

My Dear Friend: Just a card, truly hope it finds all well. Over here trying to do my bit. Bently is fine, saw him today. We are having very good luck, going to catch old Fritz.

We have just received notice of the death of Lieut. H. H. Boger. He was killed with the Major of his battalion while leading his men "over the top" Nov. 10th. This was the final battle that ended the war. The armistice was singed Nov. 11. He was a gallant and patriotic soldier. He could do no more for Democracy. He was a brother of Dr. Thos. A. Boger, Milwaukee, Wis. The news of the death of his mother just the week previous was enroute to him. The Blade extends sympathy to the Doctor and family. AMERICANS ADVANCE FROM COBLENZ Military Bands Give Concerts in Occupied Towns A correspondent with the American army of occupation telegraphs: The objectives of the American army of occupation were reached Sunday at various points. Spreading out like a great fan, the advanced units of the Americans took up their positions along the boundary of a thirty kilometer semicircle pivoting on Coblenz. The Thirty-second division is head, their position being on the extreme right of the Americans. As the various detachments reached the boundaries of the bridgehead the infantrymen marched into the towns behind bands playing spirited American airs. In some instances the bands gave concerts for the benefit of the natives, while the infantrymen hustled about looking for quarters. The men of the bridgehead force as they reached the limits of the great are during Sunday began settling down for a rest after their hike from the battle line in France, which began just four weeks ago. Different units all along the line are in the occupied villages. The officers are using public buildings as headquarters, but are being billeted in hotels and private homes.
