RESUME OF THE YEAR 1ses
ACHIEVEMENTS.

In the passing OF the old year we
usually turn over q new leaf. Now, let
us review the race achievements as
measured by the best Of the Anglo
Saxon race. II we're to enumerate
some Of the races great men in this
article would point you to Hannibal
Touissant L Overture, Dumas the
great French novelist, S. Coleridge
Taylor the English composer, Tanner
In art, or Douglass, Bruce and Lang
ston as American statesmen, but / am
only to give the achievements of the
race within the past year.
Perhaps one OF the most permanent
and far-reaching achievements OF the
race In America Is the fact that the
past year there were more boys and
girls attending the universities, coll
leges, Academic, normal and Industri-
al schools, than ever in the history of
the race. Another important achieve
ment was the electing OF colored
man. General Gomez, president of Gu
ba. who has brought peace and union
in that troubled republic. Then the
recent speeches being made In the
heart Of the South by Booker T. Wash
ington, the world famous industrial
educator, has been productive. The
last meeting of the National Business
Mems League In Louisville, KY, was
effective In race building and uplift-
Ing. Then the recent Quadriennial
Meeting of the Supreme Lodge Of
Knights Pythias at Kansas City, Mo-,
where 5000 men In uniform rank; one
special train from Virginia has an OBJ
servation car called the Bankers OBJ
servation car, led by that intrepid race
leader John J. Mitchell, Jr., and many
other similar gatherings Of national
Importance. The greatest achievement
this year just ended was the calling
together Of representatives Of the
darker races of the world in an inter-
national or Worlds Council to be held
in Egypt during the spring and sum-
mer Of 1912 for the purpose Of closer
union and to consider all national and
International questions; another very
important achievement was the deci-
sion of the supreme court in finding
the sheriff Of Tennessee guilty of con-
tempt by failing to protect the life Of
negro prison; hence the great strong
arm Oh the supreme court put Ilem
behind the bars. Today one Of the
greatest talked Of and most successful
in his line of work Is Jack Johnson,
the first negro champion heavyweight
Of the world, who Is now matched for
the worlds championship with James
Jeffries with more Of our people enter
ing the industrial and commercial pur-
suits can any one fail to see sure
signs Of permanent achievements. /
could give you hundred examples
this year where individuals among the
race have excelled their more favored
Anglo brother In intellectual and COM.
mercial fields and other lines. Now
fet Ms beshope Hui, and @let orr 1atch-ss
word be onward and upward t. great
er achievements.

A Pretty Home Wedding.

"A wedding OF considerable pr0Eni-
nence in the social circles of Des Moines
occurred at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
David NJ. Bowmer, 1888 w. Thirteenth
street Dec, %, 1909, when their daugh-
ter and only child Miss Ethel Marie was
united in Marriage to Luther H Smith
of New York.
The ceremony was witnessed by
guests numbering about fifty, who
were received by the Misses Allen.
Owing to the inability of the Rev.
Daniels to be present, the ceremony
was performed by the Rev. Thomas T..
Griffith, pastor Of the Corlnthian. The
house was beautifully decorate with
the holiday colors, red and green.
Promptly at 900 o'clock, to the strains
Of the wedding march played by Miss
Allen, the bride descended the stairs
with her father and proceeded to the
canopy, from the canopy of which was
suspended q large white wedding bell,
where she was met by the groom. The
beautiful and impressive ing ceremony
was used.
The bride was becomingly attired in
q beautiful gown Of white, hand en-
broidered french silk null, with trim
mings Of pearls and lace, and wearing
the bridal veil. Her boquet was Of
brides roses. The groom was attired
the conventional full dress.
saF oliowing senu .tnsaiti ~ Ahssgsssts
were ushered into the dining room
where refreshments were served BY
Messrs. Baker Dixon and Finis Bled-
soc; Mrs. W. H. Humburd catress.
The bride has many friends in Des
Moines where she has resided since
three years Of age. She is an accom-
plished young woman and musician
worthy Of note, being one Of the best
accompanied in this part Of the state
See will be sadly missed in the st. Paul
A. M. E. church where she has held the
position Of organist for seven years.
The groom, it will be remembered
was here two years ago in interest Of
the Metropolitan Mercantile Realty Co,
Of New York. At that time he made
many lasting friends, among whom was
Miss Boamer, and their acquaintance
ripened into friendship, which termi-
mated in his coming now to claim her as
his bride.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith expect to leave
for New York about January 10, where
they will be at home to their friends
after February 1st.
The best wishes Of all accompany
them, and may God ever breathe a
blessing upon these two souls with but
! single thought. 1.-TWO hearts beat as
one. "
