She has ever been anxious that her
children should be the pride of the
great American people, the true pride
that animates and encourages to the
manhood and to those higher quail
tiles so essential in the make up of
people whose aims are to reach
the goal of final success.
Again her efforts have not been
idle in the work along other lines.
She has been frugal as well as in
dustrious, she has been alert along
educational lines, often through self
denial, bearing her burden for the
education of her children. No class
of work has been to mental for her
when she has thought of the &C
quirementS of her sons and her
daughters whom she wish to be ac-
complished and refined, honest and
upright. She has been trustworthy
in the school room as elsewhere.
Her genial influence has been like the
rays of the morning sun dispensing
the darkness of the night and at the
same time bringing good cheer to
all All classes of our women have
been straightforward as a general
thing whatever their calling or pro-
fession. Whether as a house maid,
or as a seamstress, a nurse, or
governess, the same fidelity of pur
pose has written itself in the result
that merits the well done approval.
When the history of the Dallas city
schools is written the names Of the
first grade teachers, will occupy a
page entwined with an emblem of
evergreen around it as token of
the true devotion of these faithful
teachers who have served for more
than score of years givin~ instruct
ions to the children coming fresh
from the arts of their mothers to
be taught the first fundaments of

Shall we erect monument to the
black women, the uncrowred prin-
cess of America? If not in bronze,
brass aud granite, then in what?
But we should erect monument to
her, to one woman of all women.
who deserves this monument, for ii
was she who has made 1t possible
for the black to survive, being sur
rounded with a civilization that
broo no competition, no rival, and
yet, in this particular situation, our
mothers, the guarding angels of our
destiny, have said trust in God and
do the right. and in the language of
the immortal Lincoln, "In some way
in which we can not see, God will
make an opening" All honor to the
American uncrowned Princess, the
mother, the one American. whose ser
vice, and whose devotion will grow
brighter as the ages come and go.
Yes, we shall crown her, we shall
erect monument to her, not in
bronze. not in brass, not in granite,
but what then? But in an emblem
Of hallowed wreath encircled with
a hallowed of glory made respondent
with her achievements and with her
Christian fortitude.

ANNUAL ADDRESS
Heavenly Kingdom And The World
DemOcracy-New Birth of Liberty.

The horoscope of time passes ST
lently over our heads in its onward
sweep and vision writes itself in the
deeds and actions of men and ma
tions, portraying and perpetuating in
bronze and granite the achievements
of the. ages. Two thousand years
ago, a remarkable event occurred in
the ANIMALS of history, wonderful
story, crowding out all previous mar
rations, and filling the whole world
with new serial story that will
never be completely ended but told
only in parts A new dispensation
told by the priests, and prophets, by
angels and by the God Himself, made
its remarkable advent into the very
life of all history, sacred and pro-
fame, the fact, the one potential fact,
a New Kingdom with New Govern
ment was to be established, an Ever
lasting Dominion, Kingdom whose
Founder and maker and Preserver
of all things, even Christ the Lord.
In its advent the birth of this King
dom was very significant, in that it
had its basic principles in the love
of peace, and good will toward men;
for in its advent, no cannon doomed,
no scharpnel burst, no poisonous
gases requiring masks, no deadly
machine guns, no airoplanes of death.
but the voice or angels chanting and
voicing the very will Of your God
and of my Redeemer,, no potentates,
no crowned heads with jeweled hands
issue proclamations, no decree from
the throne of monarchs, but gentle
force more powerful, drew Heaven
to earth by a spiritual gravitation
with God the center of moral attract
ion. Thy Kingdom come, the eternal
New Kingdom of all Kingdoms, that
shines out through all ages to come.
This New Kingdom is the Kingdom of
the everlas ing Prince of Peace, Of
our God and His Christ.
But another kingdom, better known
as the world Democracy, makes its
advent over and through a thousand
fields of battles, where it is sent the
grief of the war stricken widows in
the East, where may be heard the
walls of the hungry orphans for
bread, where may be seen and heard
the stumbling foot fall of the halt
and blind, all this in the midst Of
the ruined homes, this ideal of the
world democracy makes its advent.

macy of the Allied powers. However.
the name may not be that of democ-

| planned, the scope was far beyond
your vision. The message is to have
you uphold the dignity of manhood
and the virtue of womanhood, at
home in your integrity as you de-
Tended your flag and my flag on for
eign soil, for all know the valor of
your deeds on those fields; good
fighter in wars battles, in fond an
ticipation, must make great power
of defense in civil life where the
achievements count for more real
chivalry than the call to arms.
The appeal comes to you brave
Knights, in the honor of ten millions
of your fellow citizens, to quiet your
selves like men, for this new day,
this new era of hope, is calling for
brain and brawns, calling for skilled
labor of every kind, calling for men
of worth, men of ability, men of
character and of manhood.
This is your day, this is your time,
and no time is like the present, for
the door of hope is opened in your
face, and her voice calls to higher
manhood, to higher moral and true
manhood worth everywhere. You
have stood on yonder's front, side
by side with those intrepid brave
fellows who knew naught of fear,
but now you are called again to
stand shoulder to shoulder for the
general good and uplift in the peace
full pursuit of life. AS you were
called to be soldiers at the front,
now you are again called to be vet
Grams in the/rear, in the home, vet
eran in the church, veteran in the
state, and veteran in every avenue
of laudible endeavor. Will you take
your places in the trenches and come
out and go over the top in search
of the goal that is set? Peace has
her victories; Peace battles are con-
tinods through the ages.
An appeal comes to you members
of the Court of Calanthe, it comes,
bringing a message, for it is to you
lower than these attributes degraded
and perverted. You are pillar OF
fire by night; you are our sun of
cherished ambition.
IN this new era that is about to
dawn, woman will be granted COM
plete suffrage, and with her franchise
will come her greatest opportunity
to mingle her gentle influence with
the ballot, and then too. such a rec
ognitior will add halo Of glory
to The home, to the school and the
church. and to society.
When truth shall set a hearing;
when justice shall be enthroned in
tie hearts and minds of the Nation;
when the light of the seven golden
candle sticks shall illumine the up
per sky of fairness and reason, then,
and not until then, will the true
worth of the American black woman
be seen and appreciated. 1t was she
who has stood side by side with her
husband in every class Of work
whether at home, in the field of cot
ton. or in the rice swamp, or amidst
the waving grain, she has never de-
serted her post.
AS home maker, or church
builder, her mind has ever beenl afire
in her breast that burns with that
ferver and undated zeal till the
home stood forth, the church with
its steeple pointing heavenward
chimed with the sweetest music in
praise and songs to our Father 1t
Is she who ever gives inspiration and
cheer TO the men who keep their
faces to the rising sun of hope, look
ing for that better time and for that
. light of joy and fruition that is about
to burst forth.

has manifested good judgment by
selecting Dallas as his headquarters.
Mr.. Gordon was in doubt when he

a month ago as to whether he would
reside here as other cities were bid
ding for him; but Mr.. NJ. NJ. Rodgers,

live here. From his actions it is
seen he has made up his mind. The

Baker takes his job 50 seriously that ne
is working at it pot only during cam
paigns. but between campaigns, ana since
the close of the 1918 campaign. he has
carried on an effective work, preparing
everything for the battle next year.
Speaking Of the situation he said:
II do not believe there has been time
in the recent history Of the Republican
party in West Virginia when there was
such an absence of discordant elements
and such a general desire to get together
for victory. Every report We have is
of a most encouraging character. and we
hear everywhere Of Democrats who an
nouncc that they intend to vote the Re-
publican ticket next year from president
down. and on the contrary. We hear OF no
Republicans who are leaving the party.
The tide of public sentiment has GER
tainly turned towards the Republican
party in this state. and l believe in the
county at large. SO far rs any human
being can predict, feel confident In say
ing that we will have 4 great Republi-
can victory next year"

If the county arc invited to attend
This is the fifth of series regular
monthly meetings held under the nus
pieces of the Pan Handle Agricultural
club. At each of these meetings some
subject of interest 10 Ohio county form
crs Is taken up and discussed.
With the high prices Of feeds and the
end Of tho paStur" season at hand dairy
farmers are giving considerably attcn-
ton to the problem Of winter feeds. \
few years ago before tho advent OF Exr
detrimental stations farmers were III the
habit of feeding whatever feeds were the
hanlicst without consideration as 10
their nutrient value. This meant eXtraNa-
giant and Inefficient feeding. Today
many farmers arc planning their rations
with extreme care To get those feeds
which arc best adapted to the purpose
and are the most economical because cX-
pcrirncr has shuwn them that II pays TO
do this.
Many dairy farmers are awaiting them
selves OF the help of the County Agricul-
turnl Agent in working out and planning
we'll balanced rations for their farm ami
mails. With commercial mixed feeds
selling at from $50 To $50 per ton IT Is
evident TO many dairy farmer that he
will hav" more money in his pocket
when spring comes if instead of buying
these feeds he uses some of the common
farm grains and mikes his own ration
even though II does take quite little
pencil work To balance the ration up
right 4 well balanced ration can be
worked out which will cost only about
$50 to 500 per ton instead of SSO-qulte
II saving. Ohio county farmers can save
many thousands Of dollars this winter
by giving the right thought and attcn-
ton to the feeding problem. The County
Agricultural Agent will he glad to help
any farmer with regard TO his feeding
plans. The Pan Handle Agriculture
club is also aiding by shipping In several
carloads Of feeds al tho lowest possible
cost.
