low General Putnam, the last to leave

There is no doubt that we owe our

the efforts of the men. She was the
mother Of those great men whose in

NIT 1t to do inside Of America. We
stand for the mass of the men, women
and children who make up the vitality

WHY NOT BE FAIR WITH THE
NEWSPAPER MAN2

No one has an opportunity of learn
ing the characteristics of individuals
more than the publisher of race
paper, and no one has more varied
and peculiar experiences. There are
those who will pay the subscription
as regularly and as promptly as it
is due without delay or hesitation,
just as they would any other debt.
This is the desirable and welcome
subscriber. There is another class
who subscribe as willingly and will
pay the subscription at that time, but
it is almost impossible to collect it
again, for it is almost impossible to
find the individuals as they move from
place to place so frequently. Then
there is the responsible subscriber
who feels that he is good for the sub
scription but never pays unless per-
sonal demand is made upon him for
it. This may ease his conscience, but
it is almost as difficult to collect his
subscription when it is needed most,
as it is to collect from the man who
is not responsible. Then there Is the
subscriber who imagines that every
one pays his subscriptions except him
self and that the publisher Is we'll to
do and does not need the money. He
keeps the money in his pocket until it
is thawed out by first one process
and then another Some subscribers
never intend to pay and by first one
subterfuge or another avoid payment
until the publisher in self-defense
must stop the paper and collect the
subscription by legal process when
this is possible. Really the sub
scribers to race papers should feel
deeper interest in their success and
adopt the habit of paying for them
promptly, and in that way may tighten
the burdens of the publisher and in
sure better and more regular publica-
ton of the paper.-Kansas City Sun.

MANY NEGRO DOLLS BEING
SENT OUT.

Nashville, Tenn.-An announce
ment was made by the National Ne
gro Doll Company that their rush
season, which It usually has during
the Christmas, Is Just now on. This
is occasioned, declares the manager
Of the company, on account OF the de-
lay in the importation of material
from which these dolls are made. The
ship was caught and held as a prize
Of war and was only recently re-
leased, hence, the material did not
reach Nashville until Christmas day.
But the people. says the manager,
were so determined to have the size
doll they wanted that they all replied
1--WE will wait to get the big dolls. !"
While hundreds of small dolls were
sent out, the manager declares that
It was surprising TO note that the peo-
pie wanted the dolls ranging In sizes
from SEVENTEEN to THIRTY
SIX inches. The orders are being
sent out rapidly. Many of the
churches have sent In orders for dolls
that they might conduct their bazaars.
Dolls will be shipped throughout the
year. declares the manager Of the
Doll Company, as we are ready to fiji
orders as they come.

1T has been said that in every wo-

is amply illustrated by the events Of

but In all others.

they suffered in so doing, happy in the

The entire church was filed with

patriots Of the Continental congress.
Bishop Garland, at the conclusion of
his address, read the following poem,
written by him for the occasion:
INDEPENDENCE DAY. 3D..
Lord, In thy house this sacred day
We kneel where patriots knelt to pray;
They pledged anew their faith in thee.
Then took up arms for liberty.
Not in their strength, but in thy might.
They trusted to defend the right,
And thou didst guide them by thy hand
And Established firm our fatherland.
God Of the patriots, be our guide;
Protect this land for which they died;
Give US our fathers faith in thee
To live for truth and liberty.

used every year on the Fourth Of July.
The service was attended by repre-
