QUARTETTE SINGS
 AT BROADWAY CHURCH
Fred A. Towns Tells of the Great ]
 Work Being Done by Southern In-
 stitution.

At the evening service of Broadway COngreg egationaI church, Sunday, Fred A. Towns of the Atlanta university spoke of the university and a quar- tette from the university sang.
 MT. Towns, said Atlanta university differs from other institutions for the education of the negro. 1t attempts to give a more thorough training to those who go out and become teachers and leaders of the negro people. That work is very important because of the nature of the life of the negro in this country which is q life apart and a life which does not give the negroes a chance to learn through contact. This makes it all the more important that they should have in their ranks negro men and women who can set up ideals towards which all others can work and strive.
 The value of this work has been proved by the fruit it has found in the fifty years of it's existence. And that the graduates have and are talk ing part and often leading in every inn pOrtant negro movements in the south and that the Atlanta university is right in line.
 After the address, Rev J. H. Sel- den who is occupying the pulpit dur ing Rev. MT WOrCeSteTS leave of ab- sence said that Booker T. Washington once told him that the Tuskegee school got it's best teachers from the Atlanta university.
 An offering was taken for the ben eft of the university. The following was rendered by the singers
 Little Talk with Jesus, It's Me Oh Lord, Study War No More, Got a Home in That Rock, solo, Light of Heavens Own Day, Sidney Woodland, teacher of music at the university; Swinging Low Sweet Chariot, And We Hear Nobody Pray, I Want to Be a Christian in Every Heart.
 The quaTtette comprises the follow ing: first tenor, Sidney Woodward; {; second tenor, Rufus E. Payne; first bass, Walter A. Smith; second bass, Lee B. Maxwell.

TO OUR FRIENDS.

Words cannot express the deep, abiding gratitude that fills our hearts for the tender, loving sympathy. and the many acts of kindness shown us in the dark hours of our trouble by our many friends, and the friends of our beloved son and brother.

JAP SECRETARY IS
ON WAY To POST

PICKING, Jan. 15.-Yukichi Ooata,
tie first secretary of the Japanese le-
cation, will leave in a few weeks prep
atory to taking up the post of consul
general at Mukden. Mr. Ooata has
teen in charge of japanese affairs in
China for many months, as Mr.. Hioki
has just returned from a long yaca-
ton in Japan. During the Japanese
Chinese negotiations last spring con-
corning the twenty-one demands, Mr.
Coata was Mr. Hiokis able lieutenant
and is regarded by Chinese officials as
q forceful and effective diplomatist.
His transfer to Mukden is decided
promotion.
That important railway junction
point in Manchuria is the center
much friction between the Chinese and
the Japanese The Japanese section
of Mukden is a new section adjoining

embryonic state. The Japenese have

built many modern structures in that
portion of the city for the use Of
banks, railway offices and Japanese
Industries. However, the Chinese
have steadfastly held aloof from the
new city and cling to the ancient Man
churian settlement several miles away
from the Japanese portion and from
the railway station.
Mr. Ooata was educated at the I'm
perial University in Toxic, and served
as Japanees consul at Tient-sin before
coming to the legation in Picking.
While acting as charge d'affaires in
October of last year he was spokes-
man for the Entente powers when the
request was presented to the Chinese
govrnment that it postpone the mon
achial movement lest the peace of the
Orient be affected by the abandon
ment of the republic at this time
