for four consecutive years, during
which time he erected beautiful
$4,000 church to supplant the old
shack which he found there. The mem
bershp which was small when he went
there, was more than quadrupled. His
successful work there as pastor and
builder. together with his fixed admir-
able qualities of heart and soul, no
doubt influenced Bishop Parks to call
him to the presiding eldership of the
California conference, whose first year 8

R. H. Harbert, subject of this sketch,
came to California from Texas, in 1908.
After taking comprehensive courses at
Wiley university and Fisk university,
he returned to Texas. where he spent
more than twenty-siX years in schooi
room from the common school to d
chair in university work. Concurrently
with this work he gave ten years To
the pulpit and made himself felt in all
of the activities of the race in that
state.
He was commissioned by the gov
ernor of Texas adjutant of the colored
battalion of the national guards of that
state and served several years. When
he left Texas for the Golden State. he
resigned the principalship of one of
the largest schools in the state, several
high positions in several subordinate
and grand fraternal organizations as
well as others in civic and social and
church relations
The elements in him which observ-
ant men recognized and caused them
to call him into positions of trust and
responsibility in his native state did
the same for him in California. Con-
sidered the inspiring genius in negro
journalism in Texas, where no one out
ranked him as an editor upon several
influential journals which he published
Mr. Harbert became associated with I
A. Green on the Los Angeles and Pasa-
dena Enterprise in a few weeks after
his arrival in Los Angeles, as we'll as
with the Times force of this city. 1.-THE
Colored Citizen" which he published
from Redlands for several years, was
considered the best edited magazine OIL
periodical the race had issued in the
state up to that date.
BY pressure of some who knew him
best, chief among them Bishop Grant
who first discovered him as an educa-
tor while in Texas and before he be-
came bishop, Mr. Harbert made sac
rifice of his financial prosperity and
went under appointment of Blshor
Grant as pastor of Bethel A. M. E

Charles A. Sweigert
District Attorney

Among the candidates for the
Office of District Attorney the name
of Charles A. Sweigert stands out
as one you can freely support.
His record is clean and his backing
is the best.
Franklin K. Lane. Secretary of
the Interior, says:
Sweigert has courage, con-
science and exceptional talent. He
has been aggressively for straight
government. and fearlessly against
all kinds of crookedness.
James D. Phelan says that he
has always been stalwart defender
of the right, aud that as District
Attorney he would serve the inter
ests of justice, aud save San Fran
CISCO from the further odtum OF
violated law and unpunished crime.
This appeals to all good citizens
irrespective of creed, condition, or
color, and the Office will be run
fair to all.
We expect nothing more than
this and only ask for square deal
and we can commend such man
to the suffrage of all our readers,
and we take pleasure i'll doing so.
He will give a good account Of
himself at the primary, and the
man or woman who helps his cause
will have no regrets.
Remember, the primary election
is September IS.

Aids To Pudding. Making.
But there are aids TO even modern
pudding making. such as a novel Eng
lish pudding bowl of white china with
an inverted tube lid which permits tho
pudding to swell and attain its rightful
fullness without becoming Heavy. Va
rious tin molds, too, make the steaming
of small pudding a very simple mat
ter.
Here we have a most tight-fittng lid
with solid rings for easy removal which
comes in many kinds of melon, turret.
one and one-half pint size is good for
small family use. as it permits a one
quart pudding to have ample room for
swelling. To beat up a chocolate mix
turc and fill it into such a mold. and
have II simmer away merrly for an
hour and a half is not the dreadful
task that many women would have us
make of pudding cooking.
The test of the pudding is not only
In the eating Thereof. but in the sauce
that accompanies it, and here Is where
the clever woman can exercise her art .
for so say we, that the making OF
sauces is truly an art. The bag pud-
ding should have frequent place in the
menu, because il Is generally inexpen-
siVe and offers so much filling nutri-
ment and flavor.

which are dried. stripped from their

a flask. 20 per cent solution Of alco-

Use of CultivatOr.

Where the distance between the
rows is less than two feet, hand culti-
walton with wheel hoe is contem-
plated. If hand Cultivator or
wheel hoe is not available. the rows
should be at least two feet apart to
give sufficient space for the hors"
Cultivator. Straight lines should bc
followed. no matter what method OF
culture Is used
or course, the Plan Is only suGGes-
tive. and each grower will have to
devise additional plans to suit his
own conditions. Among the things
that particularly must be considered
in each specific case Is the location
of the garden. In this connection the
question OF proximity to the house
should be given first consideration.
As the work OF caring for the garden
Is usually done in spare time, the
location selected should be as near
the house as possible. The slope and
type of soil should bc the next con-
sidera lions. A slope to tho south or
southeast Is usually preferable. be-
cause here the soil warns up early
in the spring. which permits early
planting and stimulates the carly
GrOwth OF crops. Practically any
type OF soil can he used for the gar
den. but a sandy loan is to be pre-
lcrred.

Miss Baker said she regretted that
there seemed to be little possibility of
organizing a division at Capitol Hin.
although this section covered so much
territory. Tho difficulty OF securing
courts in the eastern portion of the city
has deferred the officers Of the league
from arranging for a Capitol Hill diNis-
ion. However. If Capitol Hill women
show interest and a court can be Sc
cured. it will be added to the league
grounds as soon as possible.
