POLICY IF LEGION AS ID COLORED MEN
 IS OUTLINED BY HEAD

In order to make clear the policy of the American legion with respect to negro veterans of the great war who are eligible to membership, the follow ing instructions issued to all state or ganizations were made public yesterday at national headquarters, 19 West Forty Fourth street, New York city, by Chairman Henry D. Lindsley:
 Requests for a statement of the methods by which colored men eligible for membership in the American legion may be included therein are constantly coming to the national executive com- mittee of the legion. The national ex- ecutive committee believes this matter will be finally determined at the na- tional convention in November, but that it is highly desirable, in the mean time, that the various state organiza- tions determine that method which will reflect the wishes of the membership of the American legion in such states.
 'The right of negroes to join the American legion is clearly determined in the constitution adopted at St. Louis, and will be generally recognized as the fundamental right of all who served the country as defined by our constitution. The problem is to permit this member ship within the several states in &C., cordance with the wishes of the mem bers of the legion in such states.
 "On behalf of the national executive committee, I wish to bring to your at- tention, and to ask that you so inform the various posts within your state, the methods which may carry out the pur- pose desired.
 rae+ xr,oxy Ha clusively of white men, or exclusively of colored men. or part white men and part colored men, as the local post may determine with the approval of the state organization.
 With the composition of the local post determined, in one of the ways stated, there are two methods of han ding the next step, and it is the desire of the national executive committee that you ascertain and advise this com mittee that method which in your state will represent the wishes of the mem- bers of the legion.
 Local posts composed exclusively of colored men may be under the one state organization, in which event such post would be represented in the convention of such state organization in accord ance with the national and state con- stitutions of the legion. If this should not be desired by the members of the legion in the state involved, then it would be necessary for the posts having colored membership to have a. seapa- rate state organization and such sepa- rate state organization would have representation in the national conYen- ton
 Tt is the belief of the national ex- ecutive committee that the first meth cd proposed is best, but until action is taken otherwise at the national con- vention in November, the second meth cd may be followed where desired"

LIGHTNING DAMAGES
 IRON SPRINGS TREE

IRON SPRINGS, Sept. 8. = During the past few days Iron Springs has been visited by two of the worst cleo trical storms of the summer. Friday afternoon in the midst of hail and rain a pine tree few feet from the cottage of Mrs. Garland B. Couch was struck by lightning. It struck with such force that large pieces of wood were sent flying in every direction. Half of the tree was left hanging over the house in a way that made it unsafe for anyone to remain there. So as soon as possible MT. Wise assisted by several men who were in camp, pulled it down by means of rope. This is the second pine tree that has been killed by light ming in Iron Springs this summer.

Lovett and Fakes To
Leave M. E. Advocate

ATLANTA, Nov. 15.-The board
of truestees of the Wesleyan CHRIS
tian Advocate, meeting at the Advo-
cate office here Friday, decided to
retain for another year the services
of DR.. W. c. Lovett, as editor and
DR.. R. F. Fakes, as assistant editor
and business manager.
Both DIR. Lovett and DR.. Fakes
rendered their designations to be-
come effective a year hence. These
were unanimously accepted by the
board, the resignation of DR.. Lovett
to take effect with the 1920 meeting
of the South Georgia conference and
that of DR.. Fakes to become effective
with the 1920 meeting of the North
Georgia conference. Their success
sors will be named at the annual
meeting of the board of trustees in
October, 1920.

remarkable talent. 1t tells the story
of an American heiress, who has
written a successful novel and is
taken by an aspiring aunt to Eng
land, where she is unjustly accused
by jealous wife of alternating the
affections of her husband.
Driven from England by the scorn
of society, Nora Shard, played by
Miss Ferguson, takes up residence
under an assumed name in Venice,
where matters finally adjust them
selves happily. The picture is from
the celebrated stage play, eve Can't

British playwright. It was adapted
for the screen by Ouida Bergere and
is an extremely powerful portrayal
of certain phase of English high

The designations of DIR. Lovett and
DR.. Eakes followed recent general
criticisms of their conduct of the
paper. While both had many
staunch defenders, there were num-
ber of members of both conferences
who thought some changes should be
made in the manner of editing and
publishing the Advocate.
One of the South Georgia mem
bers of the board stated that the
criticism did not originate in South
Georgia, as had been published and
that the criticism was prevalent in
both conferences alike.
It was stated by members of the
board that no radical changes in
method of publishing the paper are
to be made in the near future. Ad-

BRISTOL LIKED
SONG SHOW TO
BE SEEN HERE

Here is what the Bristol, Va, Her
ald-Courier of September 25 had to
say of "Come Along, Mary" which
will be seen at the Opera House here
Thursday, Nov. 20, for the first time !:
ain Hervey D. Orr's offering
"Come Along Mary the Columbia
had another sprightly production last
night brimful of catchy melodies,
pretty girls and colorful costumes.
"There was an elaborate cast of
capable people who took care of the
leads, the comedy and the harmonics
and these were supplemented by an
attractive chorus that could both sing
and dance. Several novelty dances
were introduced and brought forth
rounds of applause and some of the
song numbers were greeted by repeat
ed encores.
arthur Tackman as Bobby Bax-
ter" just out of college, and Virginia
Vernon and his sweetheart, "Mollie
Mcintyre" carried the juvenile roles
and made creditable impression.
They introduced most of the novelty
dance steps and their work was wor-
thy of special mention, Helen Johns
as MARY possessed the best female
voice in the show-a clear soprano of
very good quality and range and she
used it to advantage. Jack Buckley
as Valentine Vandyke' was perhaps
the most finished performer in the
skit and made an impression with a
good baritone voice in "Some Girls
in Summertime" and Hawaiian
Moon"
Kenneth Christy as "Rufus M.
Washington" headed the comedy team
and also the quartette. He made
good in clear bit of blackface and
his eccentric dancing registered as
the biggest drawing card of the show.
"The show was we'll dressed
throughout and the scenic investiture
was first clas. The house was sold
out before the first curtain and all
appeared highly pleased with the
show"
