"That debacle almost. obliterated

ATLANTA THE LIMIT.

Atlanta, Ga, seems to have been
and is yet, the breeding place Of near
ly all the four, things which feed on
race prejudice and religious intoler-
ance.
A catalogue of these un-American
things would take too much space, so
it will suffice to mention the latest
evolved from the K. K. K. controlled
city. At the meeting Of the city
council Monday, by vote of ID to
committee was appointed to pre-
pare an ordinance prohibiting inter-
racial worship of God. Under this
proposed law white and colored peo-
pie could not attend the same churches.
A white person could not preach in a
colored church. A white person
could not preach in colored church.
A white person could not teach in a
colored Sunday school and even in
the presence of death a white priest
could not administer extreme JUNCTION
to colored human being.
Atlanta wins in racial and religious
hatred.

A SHAFT OF JEFF DAVIS,

It will be recalled that Louisville,
kentucky never yielded allegiance to
the illegal Confederate government
and yet the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy have selected that city as the
site for monument 351 feet high to
the memory of Jefferson Davis. ~
Davis was in no sense great
statesman, simply clever politician,
but as an ardent advocate of the Con-
federacy whose capstone was slavery,
he typifes a doctrine which cost our
country million lives and a billion
in gold. ST.. ..-.. .. H..
The monument will serve no useful
purpose as the cause it glorifes is
dead. The Daughters of the Confed-
eracy ought to devote the money they
will spend on the Davis shaft to aid
ing the veterans who fought to pre-
serve our liberties rather than waste
it on memorial to the man whose
life was given to the destruction of
his native land. ~ ,.... ... H.. a..... i'm

THE WINGED REDBUG.

The writer recalls bit of doggerel
of years long gone:
The common fly has wings of blue,
The FREELY wings of fame;
The bedbug has no wings at all,
But he gets there just the same.
Times have changed since that was
written. With the coming of the new
era of airships, seventy-five mile
guns, poison gas and other atrocities,
it is now said that the winged bed
bug has arrived. at Constantinople
and is driving hotelkeepers,' their
guests, and housewives to. the utter
despair born Of sleepless nights.
1t has, 50 the dispatches say, in
vaded the palace of the sultan and
added to his many worries. It is
smaller than the pre-war type and
those who have examined it assert
that it has wings and flies like a mos
quito.
Its activities defy mosquito netting.
It appears to be able to bite through
sucn netting. 1t does not always Sc
crete itself in the bedding, but may
stow itself in the ceilings and from
there drop upon it's victims. It does
not come singly, but in married
couples with large families, attack
ing from all directions.
The old style bug was bad enough,
but bedbugs with wings! Angels and
minister Of grace defend us!

THE "MENAcE" OF BUDDHISM.

A woman who has been a Christian
missionary i'm Japan for 18 years call
ed, the attention to the Disciples of
Christ, at recent general confer
ence, to the growing menace" of
Buddhism. She said that Buddhist
priests and teachers arecoming in in
creasing numbers and are urging the
Japanese in the u. S. to have nothing
to do with the Christian religion on
the ground that it's followers call
them inferior and Cypress them. She
also stated that Buddhism is also
gaining among Americans and that
many colored people were being con-
verted... It is not strange that the
religion of the gentle Gautama Buddha
should appeal to the colored people,
because it not only teaches the equal
ity of amnkind, but practices it's
teachings. Orthodox Christianity in
the u. S. teaches inequality of race
and Expresses, disfranchises, lynches
and burns colored Christians at the
stake. It is aided in keeping the
niger in his place" by the Ku Klux
Klansmen, who, barring the Jews and
Catholics, kneel before the "Flaming
Cross" and swear to uphold white
supremacy"

WOMEN AS PREACHERS.

The women are demanding their
right to become preachers Of the Cos
pei on equal terms. with the men. At
a recent meeting of women pastors a
speaker declared that the majority Of
the church members at present are
women drawn by the eloquence and
magnetism of the male preachers and
if women were installed as pastors
would fall over each other in the eff
forts to get into the fold. ..'s.s
The Reverend Clarence Edward
Mccartney Of Philadelphia, dissents
from this view and says that the or
dination Of women as ministers Of the
gospel would be prejudicial to the
best interests of the church and
"would increase the occasions for
fractional scandal and satanic church
quarreling." ,.".....
No doubt the men would be at
tracted to the church services if the
shepherdess was young and charm
ing, had trim figure, wore a peek
a-boo waist, with a skirt falling to
her knees, the portion of her anatomy
from that point to the French-heeled
oxfords encased in "invisible'' silk
stockings. It would not matter what
she said, the attendance Of the men
including all of the bald-headed 'sfa-
theirs in Israeli would swamp the
meeting house and they would all
be in the front pews-if possible.

NOT A LEADER in THOUGHT.

Bearing Tuskegee date line. an
excerpt from the London (Enghnd)
Times is going the rounds of the
press lauding the head of Tuskegee
Institute; and it says among other
things: "Dr. Motion is the leader of
Negro thought in the u. S." This
statement needs some qualification.
Motion was put in as head of the
school because the interests which
support it wished him there as a
mouthpiece through which they could
express THEIR thoughts. Emmett ].
Scott was the logical candidate for
the place, but it is said that at the
meeting at which the election took
place, some one suggested that Scott
would not be so easy to control as
Motion. That decided the matter. :
THE APPEAL does not under
estimate the strength of DR.. Motion.
He has powerful interests behind him
and he has a large following, but he
is in no sense great thinker or a
leader in thought. There are thou
sands of colored men who are in
every way superior intellectually and
yet are not hampered by some of the
traits he has shown. Specifically, in
the matter of his alleged refusal to
protest against the election of his
wife from a Pullman sleeper several
years ago, his alleged speeches to the
colored soldiers in France, and his
continual laudation of the South in
his public utterances.
DIR. Motion has recently written a
book called, Grinding Way Out, -
but as a reviewer said, he seemed to
be getting in deeper" Although
written in grammatical English, there
are no t'high lights" and certainly no
evidences of great thought or literary
ability.
To the most casual observer, "Ma-
jor'' Motion is not leader in thought,
but follower, who not only thinks,
but says that which pleases the
South, and as reward the South
gives him not justice for the people
he is picked to represent, but a pat
on the back as "good negro"
