REV. ALFRED JOHNSON TYLER,
Pastor Of the Mount Airey Baptist
Church, was born December 6. 1868. IN
Caroline County. Va, and came to
WASHINGTON with his parents in 1872.
He obtained his 'education in the public
schools Of Washington and was or
dained as a minister in 1895. In Sep
TENDER of the same year he received
an invitation from Rev. r. L. Simmons
of McKeesport. Pa, to come there and
take charge of the Bethlehem BAPTIST
Church, and after a stay of about
nine months Rev. Simmons. who had
left to attend college, suddenly died
and Rev. Tyler was then chosen to
take charge of his work there. This
was in 1896. In 1909 he received
call from the Mount Horeb Baptist
Church of washington and after care
full consideration he decided to ACCEPT
and he remained there until 1908, when
his former congregation at McKees-
port were so urgent in an invitation
for him to come back there that he
had to accept. After his return he
urged his congregation to build a new
church, but owing to the lack of funds
in the treasury they were somewhat
slow in deciding to do so. but after
Rev, Tyler assured them that he
would do all he could In raising funds
they Immediately arrived at q decision
to build. as they knew that whatever
he attempted he was sure to nnish
in the right way. In eighteen months
he had torn down the old building and
had built splendid new brick struc.
ture costing over $4,000. tE

|POOR CLOVER seed
HERE in ABUNDANCE
Quality Secured from France This
Year Not So Good as 1t Has
Been in Past.

There is apparently q larger supply
Of crimson clover seed on hand at the
present time than in any previous
year and much of it is Of poor quail
ity, according to specialists Of tho
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. While this would indicate that
the price should be normal or less
than normal it Is rapidly advancing.
The great part of the crimson
clover seed sowed in the United States
is normally imported from France and
Austria. In the fall of 1914 conditions
of trade with Europe were such that
there appeared to be danger Of a
short supply of seed for this sum-
mers planting. The desire of the seed
trade to secure as much seed as pos
sible together with the improvement
in trade facilities with France during
the winter and spring resulted in the
important ton of 100000 pounds dur
ing the year ended June 80. 1915. as
compared with 100000 pounds the
year previous and 100000 pounds in
1910.

The Colored People
By JOHN D. BARRY.

I and never see them at close range 60
regard them as humanity different from
| themselves. perhaps as not quite hu-
man. This kind of false thinking is
common. 1t prevails often among peo-
pie of the same race, the same kind
of inheritance. living under more or
less similar conditions, perhaps in the
same town.
One often hears successful people.
for example, say of servants some
| thing like: They don't feel as We do.
They are not like u.s."
Often they are right. But IL the diff
ferences and distinctions were to be
examined credit would not always go
to the successful Moreover. the con-
trasts would be found to be largely
superficial. due to the effect of condi-
tons outside.
say of the negroes that they are fun
damentally and essentially different
from the white people and must al
ways remain so. Some of them used
to go SO far as to declare that the
negroes were incapable of being high
ly educated and thoroughly civilized.
They have ceased to make themselves
heard. They know that their argu-
ments would be shattered by example
after example drawn from colored
people of at least two generations.
Moreover, even while statements of
that kind were freely made in this
country, there were throughout the
world plenty of examples of women
and men who showed that the state
ments were wholly gratuitous and abb
surd.
Many of us who have known color
ed people are aware that, like all the
downtrodden races, they have been
slandered. The very people who have
helped to debase them have declared
that the debasement was according
to nature In a sense they were right
But the debasement was according to
the nature. not of the colored people,
but of the white people.
Nothing is easier than to attribute
to God iniquities that are encouraged
by men, except. possibly, attributing
to God superiorities that are the re-
suit not of inherent merit. but OF
the culture resulting from worldly
advantage.
The prejudice against color in skin
is one OF the most peculiar OF all
prejudices: but II has not such a hold
on us that many people cannot see
even its popularity. They. too. con-
fuse il with what is natural, with in
stinct. And yet. if they stop to think,
they must see how absurdly it can
contradict itself. For example. among
white people there is no prejudice

u S. Officials Will Enforce Strictly Federal Laws
Regarding Open Season for Shooting Of Wild Fowl

With the approach of the open sea-
son for shooting wild fowl. the United
States Department of Agriculture a
warning sportsmen that the Esdefal
regulations as amended October /
1914. will be strictly enforced. Some
Misunderstanding has arisen from the
fact that the various State laws do
regulations. This is regarded az m
fortunate. but in such cases the de-
partment must insist upon the observ.
ance of the Federal regulations.
The department will consider any
recommendations submitted in good
faith for amendment of the regula-
lions. but will hold no public hearings
thereon. nor will it amend the regula-
tons prior to October Is. 1915. II
is the purpose of the department to
conform the regulations to the wishes
of the majority of sportsmen. SO far
as it can be done. and at the same
time give wild fowl the necessary
protection.

Several weeks ago printed an ar
ticle on the magazine for colored peo-
pie. the Crisis, published in New York
and edited by william Z. Burghardt
Du Bots. speaking of its literary ex-
cellence and of the interesting way II
reelected the steadily increasing de-
velopment of the colored people in
this country. Somewhat to my surprise
/ received from many colored people
letters of thanks. some of them pa
thetic in their eagerness to respond
to q friendly word from one outside
their race. Those letters gave me a
sense Of the isolation OF the colored
people in this country, the loneliness.
the feeling of being shut out from
so much in life that ought to be with
in their reach.
/ suppose there are few forces in
the world so hard to deal with as
race prejudice and few forces so harm
full to individual character and to so
cial cooperation. Behind the war of
1914. which looks as If ii might be
the war of 1915, too, and of several
more years, works this terrible force.
creating. sustaining and trying to jus
tify the havoc. Its being SO insidious
makes it hard to reach. Somehow il is
in the air Children draw il in with
their breath.
Is there anything in childhood more
pitiful than the exposure children,
hardly able to talk. make of the in
Jury done to their natures by the
prejudices which have become a part
Of them?
AwareneSs of the situation must
cause thoughtful parents a great deal
of concern. 1t must also put them on
their guard. But no matter how
guarded parents may be. the mischief
cannot be wholly prevented Even II
children could be sheltered in the
home they would be infected by the
prejudices OF the world outside. And
in TOO close sheltering they would
perhaps lose much more than they
gained. They would become like lit
tie dollhouse flowers, lacking the hard
ihood so necessary TO sound growth.
The best that can be done for chill
dren. il seems to me. is TO surround
them with interests opposed TO the
thriving OF prejudice.
With many of US the prejudice
against the negroes is due to unfa-
miliarity. 1t is likely to be fortified
by prejudice OF association, not unre-
lated to economics. Generally speak
ing. the negroes are poor. They live
apart From the point Of view of con-
ventional prosperity. they belong
among the alien people. 1t is natural,
then. for those who seldom see them
