dian got the floor in his time and answered the
Presidents allegations and proved by his
(Banks) own letters to him that the foundation
of Banks fights and contentious was that he
(Banks) wanted more money. It was further
proved by the Custodian that he had received
letters from Banks stating that if he was not
given more money he would destroy the order in
ten days. The Custodian proved his case conclu-
sively against President Banks and received the
applause of the big Grand Lodge, as a victorious
hero returning to his country 1t was now clear
that the Grand Lodge had made up its verdict:
"That it is far better to let Banks out and pre-
serve the harmony and peace of our order, which
has done so much in SO short time. It is better
for man to perish than the whole people,
In taking this step we have never seen an enemy
so kindly dealt with as did the Grand Lodge with
President Banks, the arch enemy of the Grand
Lodge. For the Grand Lodge paid him for the
year beginning August, 1928, to August, 1929,
$4,000 salary. 1t further made him dona-
ton of $4,000 to hold himself together for the
time being

The First Storm Passes as a Zephyr.

All institutions in their beginning which
make progress going upward like in the case of
progressive men and women, will run into coun-
ter-winds, counter-currents and storm pockets.
There is grave danger in running into these
death-traps, and unless your pilot is true and
kind, they may cause utter destruction of insti-
tutions and men. There is no way Of escaping
these handcaps in the march of progress. They
await every man every worthwhile institu-
tion and the only guarantee you may have is
wisdom. Wisdom wins easily over these handi-
caps, and by her foresight she turns defeat into
a glorious victory.
A storm in the springtime may seem to be
your greatest enemy out yonder in your orchard.
1t may seem to be uprooting your choice fruit
trees, as they bend and twist under the strain of
the heavy wind but when it is past you will no.
tice that your tree has taken .irmer hold as it
sinks it's roots deeper in the pulverized soil,
made soby the passing storm. Hence what look
ed like the destruction of your orchard has only
strengthened it that it may be able to stand

The Cust0dian's Report
AS we had prophesized many months ago,
the Custodian's report would be the praise of
the Grand Lodge, came true.
First, because every dollar was in very
busness-ke way, accounted for. Not single
item left out of the report The Custodian
went back to the Grand Lodge held in lexington
Miss, 1927, and accounted for every dollar even
the money for the sale of buttons, badges and
what-nots were found in his printed report.
Second, because of the righteous way-the
constitutional way-the Custodian handled each
dollar By this mean the money was used
for the purpose set forth in the constitution of
the Order. SO clear, perfect and faultless
was the report, until we have got to hear yet
single voice raised in contradiction by anyone
directly or Indirectly concerned.
Third, the report showed that we had an
unusual growth during the past year. 1t was
wonder of the order how we have made such
strides in fraternalsm in the state, to say moth
ing about the very splendid beginnings we have
made in the States of Arkansas and Louisiana.
His report shows further that our order has laid
aside a reserve of $4,000. This means that we
have doubled our reserve in the past twelve
months.
Fourth, the report shows that every claim
against the endowment departments paid and
satisfied that out of the more than $4,000
policy holders not one of them has a complaint
against the order for the keeping of it's promise
by contract. Knowing our race group as we'll
we do we wish to say that this is one of the
wonders of the age-25,000 satisfied colored men
and women. Surely we are going some.'
What may be regarded as one of the great
est achievements OF the order is the building OF

But il we can't settle scien-

like white bread and some like
brown, science can talk about the
difference in nourishment between
different kinds of bread.
The nourishment in bread de-

such as the nature and quantity

amount of carbohydrates, min

Long before Vitamins were known,
all the other factors had been
repeatedly and carefully examined
and many books had been written
on them.
Generally speaking, the most Inn
portant difference between brown
and white bread was considered to
be the presence of bran. because
this affects the digestibility of the
bread; that means the extent to
which the lining of the bowels
will absorb its proteins and carbo-
hydrates. Most writer's agreed
that bread with bran in it was
less diGestible than bread without,
but good many physicians
recommended bread with a certain
amount OF indigestible material in
1t because they said that rough
ening" stimulated the bowel and
made it act more vigorously. They
even said that a good deal of con-
stipation was due to white bread,
because it did not contain any
roughage. The discovery of vita
Minis however, altered the whole
question.

bread; others that they would
sooner have a white bread with

who is on the other Side) are that
white bread made with the ordi-
nary quantity of yeast has practic-
ally no vitamin r, and that any
constipation it causes is probably
because OF this and not because or
the absence of bran. They also
point to the digestibility and it's
