Hope and Happiness
~ Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Cranel


Life is composed of two clements, hope
and happiness.
Those who have not happiness have
hope and hope is better than happiness
Hope feeds on the future, which is in
finite. Happiness is of the present time
which is but point.
Hope is stimulant. Happiness is ano-
dyne
Happiness is easily destroyed; a mem
Dry, word, fear is fatal Hope
springs eternal in the human breast"
Hope is sunshine. Happiness is can
die in the wind
No one can be happy forever but we
can hope forever.
Whenever you gain a happiness you
lose hope But the more hopes the
happier
With happiness comes safety. No
man has his I'LL Of hope.
The pleasure Of happiness comes from
satisfaction. the pleasure of hope from
continuous ursatsGedneSs
Happiness is momcntary feast; hope
m everlasting hunger
Ii is better to travel than 20 arrive. 1t
$ better to stru.qI, than to succeed
Life itself is an Illusion they that
dwell in hope are in perpetual illusion,
and hence taste more life. Among the
happy illusion ceases

LIEUT.. JOS. MORGAN
MAKES GOOD

Lieut.. Joseph L. Morgan, com
manding officer of Co. |. 9Th Ing
was highly complimented by Lieut.
Palmer, of the 37th Regular Army
for having the cleanest and best
company in the Regiment. Not
only is the Springfield Company
praised for the cleanest garb and e.
quipment, but cleanest in quarters
from the mess-hall to the last man S
tent. Every rifle and bit of military
equipment is kept in a continuous
state of order and cleanlienss, and
each man prides himself on his per-
sonal appearance.
Liut. Morgan has worked hard
with the men and is repaid with the
satisfaction of knowing that the
Company is the best drilled in the
Famous Eighth. Lieut.. Morgan has
demonstrated his efficiency and is
ranked with the best officers of the
Regiment, and Springfield should
award him the deserved Iaurels for
making the Springfield Company
the first in the 9Th Ing.

vention have resolved that the Ma
tional Training school shall become
their property and Its management and
affairs be placed in their control, so it
is said. Should failures dictate to sue
cessful women? For eighteen years
the men have been raising money for
the purpose of building theological
seminary and as yet do not own a
brick.
No wonder they marvel at the abil-
ity of one woman to rear up such a
work as the National Training school
In the course of six years. Hardly is
1t to be expected that they can realize
the work of Mr. Boyd in connection
with the publishing house. Should
such men dictate as to how the work
of the training school should be car
Tfed on, much less to take upon them
selves Its entire control? What have
they done with the money raised for
the seminary?
Associate Officers Made No Defense.
The women who went to Savannah,
Ca, recently might have been tools,
but the hundreds who helped to build
up the National Training school are
not. They will see that the one who
has borne the burden shall stay and
complete the work begun Why did

mouths buttoned up and hold the

The would be auditor of the CON
vention claims that his purpose is to

He has probably failed to read article

protection. We would refer him to
the section which reads: $50 long as
the woman's auxiliary and the ma
tional Baptist convention shall foster

both conventions and the secretaries
of the boards shall always be MEN,
bers of the boards of trustees.
"At their first meeting the trustees
shall divide themselves into classes by

nearly equal as possible. these classes

spectively. but all trustees to continue

DISCORD AMONG
BApTISTS CROWS
Big Contention Over Training
School at Washington.
MISS BURROUGHS DEFENDED

Alleged Attempt to Wrench Control
of Progressive Institution From lite
Present Chief Official Met With De-
fianoe-Auditor Of Morris Wing Of
National Body Questioned.
The alleged attempt Of the National
Baptist convention to GUST Miss Nan
ME II. Burroughs from the presidency
of the National Training School For
Women and Girls at Lincoln Heights,
Washington, has met with tremen-
dous host of DIRECTORS. This new move
on the part of some of the officials of
the convention has stirred the entire
Baptist denomination among the col
ored people of the United States. The
following statement issued by mem
Der Of the women's auxiliary conven-
ton voices the sentiment and attitude
of Miss Burroughs supporters.
The statement says:
The mems department OF the split
National Baptist convention chose as
their main channel for diversion at the
1916 session Miss Mamie Burroughs
and the National Training school at
Washington. They have indeed met
with a different proposition than that

ascertain the most advanced position
that all might agree upon and hold as
vantage ground from which TO work
for new conquests by eolored Amer
leans.
Every phase OF the race question was
discussed. The following report WAS
unanimously adopted:
Your committee submits the follow
ing report for your consideration: The
Armenia conference believes that its
members have arrived at virtual una
nimity of opinion in regard to certain
principles and that more or less def
mite practical result may be expected
from its deliberations. These princi-
pies and this practical result may be
summarized as follows
First-The conference believes that
all forms of education are desirable
for the Negro and that every form of
education should be encouraged and
advanced.
Seeond.-lt believes that the Negro.
in common with all other races, can
not achieve its highest development
without complete political freedom.
Third.-It believes that this develop
ment and this freedom cannot be
furthered without organization and
without practical working under
standing among race leaders.
Fourth.-lt believes that antiquated
subjects of controversy. ancient sus-
picions and fractional alignments must
be eliminated and forgotten If this or
ganization of the race and this prac-
teal working understanding of its
leaders are to be achieved.
Fifth 1t realizes the peculiar diff
culties which surround this problem In
the south and the special need of I'M
Outstanding between leaders of the
race who live In the south and those
who live IN the north. 1t has learned
to understand and respect the good
faith, methods and ideals of those who
are working for the solution OF this
problem.
Sixth.-The conference pledges itself
to the invioiable privacy Of all its de-
liberations. These conclusions, how
ever, and the amicable results of all
deliberations of the conference are fit
subjects for discussion In the colored
press and elsewhere.
Seventh.-The conference feels that
mutual understanding would be en-
couraged If the leaders OF the race
would meet annually for private and
informal discussion under conditions
similar to those which have prevailed
at this conference.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-Whtle
Secretary Lane is being considered in
official circles as likely choice for
Secretary of War. it is understood
that the President has under consider
alton the names of two or three other
men and will not make an appoint
ment before weighing their qualifica-
tions carefully.
The President has already made up
his mind to appoint Democrat to the
place. 1t was said in well informed
circles that he will not be from New
Jersey or the South.
Former Governor Walsh, of Massa-
chusetts; Secretary Houston, former
Governor Harmon, of Ohio, and former
Mayor Baker, OF Cleveland, were ad-
ded to the names being discussed.
Former Governor Adams, of Colorado,
was being talked of as a possible sue
cessor to Secretary Lane. 1t was .un-
derstood, however, that at least one
OF the men being considered by the
President has not been mentioned pub
lically for Secretary Of War.
