MRS. MARTHA TAYLOR SMITH
President and Organizer of Negro
Womans Christian Association OF
Christian Home.
Probably no woman in Omaha de-
serves more credit for Christian per
severance than the subject of this
sketch-Mrs. Martha Smith-whOse
portrait here appears.
On October 18th. 1913, in response
to call issued by Mrs. Smith, twelve
ladies met at her home and organized
the Negro Woman's Christian Asso-
citation of Omaha, the membership of
which grew to about sixty. In Sep
tember of 1914 the n. w. Y. C. A. be-
came the n. W. c. Home Association
for the establishment of a home for
aged and friendless colored people.
Mrs. Smith was made president of
the organization and, aided by her
committee, canvassed the city and
raised the first sum paid on the home
which the Association now occupies.
Like all those who make efforts of
this kind, Mrs. Smith has had oppo-
sition and criticism from within and
she has held the organization togeth
er for two years, and though the act
| i've workers have now been reduced
| to about twenty, the rise has been
steadily upward and substantial sums
have been paid on the property, 10
Gated near Thirtieth and Pinkney
| streets.
In speaking of the home member
said: There have been times wher
failure, especially from a financia
standpoint, seemed certain; then oul
president would call a committee t
solicit means to meet these obliga
tions; at times she has come to ou
rescue with her personal funds
Mrs. Smith was born in Wheeling
West Virginia, and finished the higl
school of that city. Since 1889 Omaha
has been her home.
1t is interesting to witness how
readily some women find their worE
and go about it with the directness
and earnestness of true apostles Of
reform. They have faith in them
selves and the sure and successful out
come of all for which they pray, plan
and work.-Omaha Monitor.

ments will be given Saturday nights

us. :. Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Williams are
at home to friends, 1918 Lloyd Ave.
They were married recently. Mrs.
Williams was formerly Miss Jennie
Tucker. The services at the Pleas
ant Valley Baptist Church Sunday

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The Su-
preme Court of the District of Colum-
bia, Mr.. Justice Siddons presiding,
upon motion of counsel for the Grand
Lodge, K. of P, of Virginia, issued a
rule against the Supreme Lodge Off
cials, who were in session at
Columbus, Ohio, requiring S. w.
Green, Supreme Chancellor of New
Orleans, La, f. E. Underwood, SUI
preme Keeper of Records and Seal,
Frankfort, KY, S. A. T. Watkins, Su-
preme Attorney, Chicago, ILL.,, and
r. R. Jackson, Major General, Chi
cago, Ill, to appear before the court,
Friday, October 8, 1915, to show cause
why they should not be fined and i'm
prisoned for disobeying an injunction
issued by the Supreme Court.
Supreme Chancellor S. w. Green
and his associates refused to admit
the supreme representative of the
Grand Lodge to the sessions of the
Supreme Lodge at Columbus, Ohio,
and also declined to recognize them
as members of the order in any way
although the order of the Supreme
Court had been served upon them
and printed copies had been distrib-
uted to members of the Supreme
Lodge. The Virginia delegation re.
manned in Columbus until Friday
evening, August 81, 1915, after which
time they left for home. They first
notified the Supreme Lodge through
counsel that they would take this
course. Grand Chancellor John Mitch
ell, Jr and the Virginia representa-
tives stopped here last Saturday.
On Saturday the Supreme Lodge
voted again to revoke the charter of
Virginia after stormy debatesled by
Supreme Representative William Har-
rison, of Oklahoma. The Grand Lodge
of Virginia was not represented at
the time and no notice had been given
to it's Representatives as to when the
case would be taken up. The specific
part of the injunction which affects
the contempt proceedings is as fol
lows:
"Adjudged, ordered and decreed
that the defendants and each of them
and their officers, agents and attor-
neys and all others on their behalf, be
and they are hereby restrained, dur
ing the pendency of this suit, or un-
til the further order of the Court from
declaring or treating the lodges sub
ordinate to the plaintiff in the state
of Virginia and the members attached
to the same as not entitled to the
rights and privileges of members of
the order of the defendant corpora
tion."

RACIAL PROGRESS

Jack Johnson and Advertising-A
writer in the magazine Advertising
and Selling, says; Some time ago l
heard Harry Ford, when he was with
the Chalmers Motor Company give an
illustration of the difference between
advertising and salesmanship. One
day Jack Johnson was in Mr.. Ford s
office and said: What is all this stuff
you have around on the walls here,
Mr.. Ford?' The answer was: That
is advertising Jack asked then:
What is advertising? Mr.. Ford ex-
planned that advertising was for the
purpose of helping to sell Chalmers
cars.
But l don't see why you need that
when you have so many salesmen.'
Mr. Ford's answer was: There are
two things necessary to sell cars and
will explain them in your own Ian
guage. You have two arms. You use
your left arm to feint and to jab the
other fellow-to get his interest-to
get him aroused. That is advertising
But you use your strong right arm
to deliver the blow that knocks him
out. That is salesmanship.

Camp Fire Girls Outing

Fourteen merry active title girls
made the thickets of Swope Park ring
with their shouts and laughter last
Saturday. The birds chirped, the pet
bears waved hello" to the merry girls
and the walnut and hall trees we're
not so heavy when these girls depart
ed.
The Camp Fire Girls, accompanied
by their guardian, Miss Estelle Coles,
planned the trip for the purpose of
nature study. They collected about
twenty different specimens of tree
leaves and identified many of the
Gagged animals. Their lunch consisted
of meat sandwiches, pickles, cheese,
chicken salad, deviled eggs, peaches,
grapes, bananas and soda pop and
mixed cake. Every one had more than
he could eat.
At the last concert the girls took in
S25.O5 ticket money. Their expenses
were as follows.
