Prince Max Stricken With Diplomatic Influenza
THE TOWNS COMEBACK
Superintendent S. w. Bryant
Shows that the Water De-
partment Does Notify Delin-
quents That Water Will Be
Cut Off.


Yesterday The Oasis voiced
the complaint of a prominent
business man to the effect that
the Water Department of the
Municipality should give delin-
quent water rate payers notice
Of intended cutting off their
supply so they may have op-
portunity to square up and save
the inconvenience; and also that
shutting off water anywhere is
a menace to health.
Yesterday Mr.. S. w. Bryant,
the Superintendent of Water
Department called at The Oasis
office and expressed a desire
that the Towns side of the mat
ter should presented.
First he called attention to
! the fact that printed right on
the face of each water bill pre-
sented there is printed the fol-
lowing:
Rules of Service
"All accounts are due and
payable in U. S. money on the
first day of each month and
must be paid before the 18th of
each month. If water bills are
not paid on or before the 18th,
a penalty of $1.00 may be added
to bill and water service discon-
tinued without further notice
until same is paid. Property
owners will be held responsible
for water furnished their prop.
critics. Water service will be
charged until ordered turned off
(at office.)
Cali bills are payable at Wa
ter Office, 1O3 Grand Avenue. !"
'That is one notice." said Mr..
Bryant, "and surely all who
ever see water bill should have
seen by that that cutting off
their water is the penalty of
delinquency. And those Rules
of Service are copied from the
Water Ordinance. No one is
seen going around notifying
peolpe that the penalties of
other violated ordinances are
to be invoked. The delinquent
finds himself up against the OF
dinance and pays The penalty.
'"Then there was published
for a week, in both daily news
papers a notice to delinquents
that the water would be shut
off on a certain date. That
made two notices given.
"The fact is," continued Mr..
Bryant, "that we have given
personal notice time and again,
and it has done little or no
! good. So long as we confine
ourselves to the printed and
published notices, and to verbal
notice, delinquent water users
pay no attention. But when we
cut them off-that brings them
to the office right at once"
That's true" said Mayor
Bowman, who was present. T
overlooked my bill, paid no at
tention; and when my water
was cut off hustled to the wa
ter office and settled"

YOUR BUSINESS.

Pay attention to your business and it will return
the compliment.
| How hard he shall work is question every man
unconsciously answers and dismisses from mind
His decision is determined by the depth of his
ambition and the height of his aspirations.
A sense Of duty to dependents or feeling of
obligation to family may also be factors in the
formation of his policy. But before these ee-
ments enter into mans life he should have clear
ly shaped in mind goal, a we'll defined objective
toward which his energies will be directed.
1t may mean the accumulation of certain sum,
the attainment of coveted position, the accom-
plishment Of noteworthy vocational or profession
al prowess-but it should be based upon individual
effort no matter what it's nature.
Everyone of us should cheerfully and eagerly
dedicate the major part of two decades to inten-
sive work, purposeful application.
The degree of success resultant depends upon
the foresight and vision which chose and planned
the career.
Talents, inclination, education and pecuniary
needs each and all should be considered in the
selection Of ones lfework
But once the field of endeavor is decided upon,
when the die is cast let nothing defect you from
the charted course, hew straight to the line, make
departures only after mature deiiberation.
Pay attention to your business and it will re-
turn the compliment!

YOU are so much better than ne, You thlnk-a1e
compelled to take minor place.
It's hard to explain, but one reason is that ms
personality and experience probably fit him in a
neculiar way for the job to be done. AID usually
it's because he understands and APPRECIATES the
strength and weakness Of others.
The things that equip men for tes WORK are
so varied that it's impossible to standardlze the re-
quirements for the big jobs
. We may talk in general way about faithful
ness and loyalty and honor and the other qualities
which are so necessary in the ideal man. but one
NUT have these-plus!
And it's the "plus''-the thing added-that
makes the difference. And usually you can't de-
fine what this "plus may be. You feel it, it in
fluences others, and it's what wins in competition
with others-but you can't classify it.
It may be something that was handed down by
mans grandfather, or that came to him through
lifetime of experience, or that came out OF an
inspration-or shall we call it a vision-which
opened his heart and mind and make him differ
ent, mostly in his inner life.
i It's chiefly this inner, hidden life, which no man
can see, that gives the apparently ordinary man
the place of superiority.
But fortunately, this road to power is open to
US all-if we will but seek it. For the development
of the inner life depends not upon wealth or
learning but upon the cultivation of open-minded-
ness and -heartedness, upon our willingness
to understand others and principally, perhaps,
upon our readiness to permit others to win the
bigger places if they deserve them. E.. .s.., mtg

THE WORLD WAR
AND THE NEGRO
Address at the Meeting of the Negro Or
ganization Society, Portsmouth, Va,
December 5, 1917.

causes OF the war, ana as 10 tne rlSnls
of the many combatants, we have not
the time now to concern ourselves.
One thing appears to be true. The is
sue seems squarely drawn between au-
tocracy on the one hand and democ-
racy on the other. Over this issue it
looks as if the world is willing to fight
to the death. AS in our great Ameri-
can struggle, the Negro is on both
sides in the conflict He is preponder-
atingly, however, on the side of the
liberty of nations, as, in our Civil War,
individual In the Civil War he played
determining part. Is it not signifi-
cant that now the white man should
| find himself forced to call upon the
black man, to whom he has so siren
uously denied the rights and privileges
of democracy, to help him save democ-
racy for the world? Already in the
World War the Negro helped to strike
the staggering blow that saved Paris
and France, and from which the in
vader has not yet entirely recovered.
When the Allies called their native
troops into action on the Western
front, Germany attempted to set up
the idea of white mans" war, and
opposed the Introduction of colored
troops into the conflict in Europe.
Germany, however, had no means of
transporting to her own front her
black battalions from East Africa and
her other colonial possessions. She
has not neglected to use native troops
in Africa. 1t was found easy to cite
abundance of precedents of black
troops fighting on European soil. Will
liam of Orange, it was shown, used
them in 1858. Richelieu employed
them at La Rochelle, Maurice of Sax
ony at Fontenoy, and Napoleon at the
siege of Gaeta, at Magenta, and in
other places. Three thousand Negro
troops served in the Franco German
War. In 1911 France was considering
raising a million native troops from
her colonial possessions.
In the present struggle France has
used many thousand black troops,
among others, Senegalese, Somali, AL
gerians, and Moors. Negroes are
fighting in the British and French
armies alongside of British and
French soldiers, and with such cour-
age and valor that they have won the
recognition and respect of many of
their superior officers" Since the
United States has gone in the war,
eighty thousand American Negroes
have been called to the colors. And
when further calls shall be made,
many others will be ready to renew
the cry, 1--WE are coming, Father Alb
raham, two hundred thousand strong"
So far, however it is in the armies
of France that the Negro has mosl
distinguished himself. The reason is
not far to seek. Negroes, like all 9th
err French colonials, love France.
They learned that France was in dan
ger, and though they had never set
foot upon European France before
they rushed to the assistance of the

Two hundred sixty-four personal ci-

by Negro soldiers of a single Somali
battalion since it landed in France in
1916. One hundred ninety of these
were won in the furious battles of
the Aisne and Verdun. Thus have
Negroes shown their loyalty to France
in her calamity, and so have they de-
ported themselves on the fields of
battle in her behalf.
There are Negroes in the regular
British army fighting shoulder to
shoulder with white soldiers. And the
separate Negro battalion recruited in
