WIMBERLY) 4/nder the Auspices of the Fed eration of colored Women's clubs of Savanpah there has been estab lished a detention home for delin quent colored girls. The home con sists of a building of eight rooms situated on a beautiful five acre ; plot of land near tho Georgia industrial college near Thunder bolt about 8 miles from the City of Savannah, in this homo are 23 girls. On the board of manage ment there appear the officials of Chatham county. The County of Chatham and the City of Savan nah rnako substantial appropria tions to carry on tho work of the home. The Board of Education of Savannah also contributes to the home. In addition to this huge un dertaking the federation operates a freo clinic for colored babies at the Cuyler Street public school. Out of tho above there arises this question, “What Is the matter with the negro men and women of Au gusta?” Grant Wolfe and wlfo of Asbury Park, N. J„ passed through tho city last week, motoring to Ocala, Florida, where they will establish a ready-to-wear business. They spent the day with Albert Walker, the well known chef and wife on Savannah Road, Madame Wolfo being the sister of the c .es. The delegation of Baptist pas tors which left Tuesday morning for Atlanta to attend the state mis sionary Baptist convention Is the ntrongest ever sent up to that body from this city. The delegation con sisted of Rev. D. F. Thompson, of Tabernacle; Rev. W. P. Sanders, of Hprlngfiold; Rev. J. W. Whitehead, of Antioch; Rev. G. W. Harrison, representing sevedal rural churches; Dr. Roman J. Johnson, Liberty church; Revs. J. L. Bennett O. R. Pinkston, and D. O. Smith; Rev. Charles Williams, pastor Mount Olivo church and president of the Baptist Pastorlal Conference of Augusta, and a number of oth ers whose names escaped me. With this array of talent the delegation will prove potential In the conven tion, and 1t would not he surpris ing If Augusta should return hear ing the highest honor of the con vention. There Is going to be some dust kicked up at Southvlew Park Frl • day nfternoon. The occasion will he a clash between the football team* of Voorheso Academy, Den mark, 8. C.. and Haines of this city.

It Is not necessary to pull the other fellow down In order to rise yourself. Merit wins. Dr. Evans, of Columbia, motored to tho city with a party last Sun day and spent th* tima aB the | guest of Rallies school, where she placed her nelce, returning to Co lumbia late In tho afternoon. Dr. Evans has practiced In Columbia 25 yenrs and ha* met with groat success in her chosen profession as physician. Some years ago Dr. Evans wns a teacher at Haines school hero. Until recently the doctor successfully conducted a large sanitarium In Columbia. Rev. D. J. Flynn Is conducting a series of meetings nt Haines school from II;30 to 12:30 each day dur ing th* week. John Evans, of Columbia, a grad uate of Haines school, spent Sun day In the city. President John F. Fullen of the Lincoln requests me to an nounce that colored women are now eligible to membership in the league and that ho la anxious to have them Join. This Is an ad vance step on the part of the league and ought to result In a large addition to the membership. Tho membership fee Is only ten cents, and every woman and man among us ought to enroll and help make thi forthcoming celebration the gre.V/ st In the history of th* association. Colored people who have parkz for rent to colored people ought to provide suitable accommodation j for their patrons. And they must • understand that It Is no offset for j their failure, to lnvegh against ' colored people renting a park from | the white people who furnish seat- I lng accommodations and even | grand svind convenience. No one j wants t>s go out In an open field I and stnnd holt upright for two I , hours to witness a football game. ] There are in this city three schools [ carrying football teams and they | owe it to the colored people to give | them reasonable and comfortable accommodations. If colored men who run these parks refuse then let these school teams get together and furnish their own park, even If they have to form a stock com pany in order to get the necessary funds. > Rev. D. F. Thompson, pastor of Tabernncie Church, lins accepted the chairmanship of the colored committee in the Red Cross drive. While Rev. Thompson is a new man in Augusta, he has shown ev idence of that species of leadership that secceeds because the leader himself is a worker who knows how to lead and direct his forces. I bespeak for him the united sup port of the colored people In this drive, in which there should be union of effort and hard work to the last day of the campaign. Rev. Thompson Is now making up his executive committee, among those already appointed being such well known hustlers as Dr. Thomas W. Josoy, Lieut. C. T. Woodland, A. T. Jackson and A. C. Griggs. The full committee will be given as soon as completed. The second whist tournament of the Lucy Laney League was pull ed off at Stars Hall Monday nlgh£.
