THE TROUBLE IN DANVIIIiE.

We have read with interest the
account OF the trouble in Danville,
Va. and it seems to us to be case
OF "much ado about nothing ~ An
colored youngster made
an incorporate remark, probably in q
jocular manner and body Of SOL
diers, presumed to be mustered into
the service Of the United States to
preserve order. proceeded to make
"a rough house" and started to drown
other colored men who had absolute
ly nothing to do with the affair.
Howard Grasty had not committed
any crime by what he said. But this
was taken as an excuse to endanger
the lives of the colored people of
Danville and those OF some Of tho
white people for that matter. The
city OF Danville has not very long
since recovered from the massacre
that occurred there many years ago.
There Is no reason to have it recur
again.
The white toughs, who had been
mustered into the service were worse
than the person they attempted to
punish. They were bent on commit
ting murder. The better class of
colored people and the better class of
white people must cooperate to keep
these elements under control. There
are some of the best white people in
the country right in Danville. There
are hundreds Of them, who would 60
to any length to help deserving COL
ored friends that they have learned
to like so we'll. ~.
Let them see to 1t that this happen
ing, which has been spread broadcast
over the country shall not be utilized
to arouse racial antipathy in It's worst
form In that community. Colored
people would do we'll to think more
and talk less and above all make
friends with the better class of white
people. These are peculiar times
now. These are times when white
mon can barely secure their rights
in the courts Of the land at the
hands Of the legislators being sent
to Richmond to control the affairs of
State. All things will come right
after while and in the meantime,
let us not weary in well-doing.
Mayor Harry Wooding is a friend
to the people Of Danville regardless
Of color. What he did in this case
was a stroke of diplomacy, done to
appease the passions of the thought
less. Let us cooperate with him.
It Is a good radiance to that commun.
ity that the high-spirited soldiers are
gone. Before they como back per-
chance, some black trooper may have
rescued them from dangerous situa-
lions and they may have drunk from
the same canteen upon the sheil-swept
battlefields OF PARKWAY France.
Life Is too short for such misun-
derstandings. Colored men, do like
the married man does Speak like
the married man spoke when some

the wishes OF his wife. He replied,

SO 1t is, colored folks. We have got
to live with these white folks. Let
us have peace, even in Danville, Vir-
ginia.

BODY FOUND HANGING FROM

me BODY was found hanging On the
horth side of the railroad trestle. The
TIES on the trcstle were about fourteen
ieet above the roadway. Little's feet
were about five feet from the ground.
On the back of his head was a bloody
mark. The coroner could not deter.

shot wound or an abrasion from q
blow. An autopsy was ordered held
late today.
Little wore only his underclothing
when taken from his room. He is
not known TO have made any outcry

were the young men who had not
waited for their country to conscript
them into service, but at her first
cry of<need, stood forth and said,
Here Nam, send me-" They had
not waite for their country to say,
"You must co." they had stepped
forth and asked, MAY we go?" And
they had gone forth with alert eye,
with quick step, with determination
to do their all for their country and
humanity, and had done 1t volun-
tarily.

away from these young men, who,
in the draft of their country, have
been taken into it's service. But, |
would that in the midst Of the elab-
crate parade, the waving of flags, the
hurrahs of the people, the clashing
of bands and the bowling of whistles
with which their departure is
heralded, there should be grateful
remembrance of that company of
young men, the volunteers, who at
the first call of their country stepped
forth to serve her. Due praise to
our drafted men. More praise to
our volunteers!
Surely the proud mothers of these
boys, the volunteers, concur with me
on the above.

this story tries to present truth
before the public that will not only
enlighten, but benefit mankind. II
starts out with every intention or
sanctioning birth control, but stops
short, and from then on the idea be-
comes so hazy that 1t Is hard to
grasp the true meaning. The story
opens with the trial Of a doctor for
circulating a book on birth control.
He is found guilty. The story
switches here to the sorrows OF
childlessness and the sins of illegal
operations, which nearly every one
of mature age knows about. How
will birth control benefit mankind,
and also just what plan have you In
mind to prevent the coming into the
world of "unwanted55 children?
It is a moral appeal for the bet
terment of shallow society and calls
attention to the canoerous sin that
is undermining the foundation OF
public welfare. auV.

A STRONG SERMON

Where Are My Children" a cur
rent release of the Universal COM
pany, written by Lucy Payton and
Franklin Hall, has for its foundation
the theory of birth control and based
on the famous trial of Margaret
Sanger, which received so much pub
licity recently. The picture has been
rejected by the national board of re-
view and the Universal company Is
endeavoring to feel the public pulse
without this body's sanction. The
story has the backing Of such prom
inent men as Rabbi Jacob Kohn,
Father w. R. Cashin, DR.. Charles W.
Parkhurst and Superior Paulist
Father John Hughes. It is excep-
tionally bold and blunt and is for
adult audiences only.

AN INTERESTING LETTER
FROM IDAHO VOLUNTEER
San Diego, California,

San Diego, California,
October s, 1917.
Last Wednesday the third contin-
gent of drafted men left to begin
their training in camp for active
duties in the trenches. They went
amidst the hurrahs of the populace.
Escorted ACCOMPANIES of volunteers
~ef-ti1e regular army and the navy,
by automobiles full of city officials,
with representatives of the veterans
of former wars; by procession of
the best citizens; by band music
to cheer the saddened hearts, and,
with the streets lined up their full
capacity with friends, acquaintance
and the curious mob. Lost some
where in the crowd, the noise, the
cheers, were the wives, sweet-hearts,
the mothers and fathers, of the boys
who were going away.
have no words of disparagement
to offer against such demonstra-
ton. It's sad spectacle at it's best.
1t doesn't appeal to me to be time
for hurrahs or hilarity. Men and
women ought to stand with bowed
uncovered heads as these young
men march by.
But / was thinking as I saw them
march by of another company of
young men who marched over the
self-same route not many weeks ago.
No long line of automobiles contain
ing the prominent citizens and Of
ficials accompanied them. No troops
of men in uniform escorted them to
the train. The sidewalks contained
only the usual passers-by. The at
tention of the populace was not at
tracted by glaring color or music of
bands.
Yet these were of our young
men-our own. The boys from our
homes. They were going out in the
self-same mission as those of Oc-
tober 3. They were the volunteers
the young men who at the first
call of their country laid down

the subscriptions amount to $780,
900 more than the voluntary goal
of 100000 set by the state.
