RACE BETTERMENT OVELTEH'S SUBJECT Minister Urges Colored Persons to Make Stronger Efforts.

"Live so that you will command the respect of others, and so that each of you may feel a pride of your race. Don't feel discouraged by frequent rebus, but strive to have the white and colored races to come to a harmonious understanding." This was the advice given the members of the Citizens' Union by the Rev. Mr. Ovelton at a meeting held last night at Mt. Moriah Baptist church on South Ninth street. About three hundred persons were present. Besides the Rev. Mr. Ovelton, the Rev. Mr. C. C. Goins and Attorney C. Ki chare son spoke. The union will have a promient speaker every Sunday afternoon when regular meetings are held. J. T. Giles, superintendent of schools, will be the the first of a series, and he will address the organization Sunday, February 1. The complete constitution of the new organization will be adopted at the meeting tomorrow, whioo will be held in the Masonic hall on South Sixtn street. No Tabernacle Segregation. A vote of appreciation of the members of the union on the action of the ushers at the Honeywell tabernacle was taken. Recently a protest against segregation was made, and it was explained by the chairman of the ushers' committee that colored people had been segregated because it was believed they would prefer a section for themselves. Segregation at the tabernacle was eliminated upon orders of the ushers' chairman. The leading speaker, the Rev. Mr. Ovelton, said there has been an inclination on the part of colored people to feel discouraged in their effort at race betterment. "In the fifty years since the Civil War the colored people have acquired enough property to equal in size the New England states, and is valued at $700,000,000," he said. "This is not enough to put us on the rigt footing. Strive to go into business for yourselves, instead of hiring yourself out. "Teach your children to save," the Rev. Mr. Goins said. "I advise every parent here to have his children enter an account in a Christmas savings fund." C. R. Richardson, one of the organizers, spoke on co-operation, telling the audience that only by united effort and not through individual work could anything be accomplished to better the colored race. He told them, however, to strive to better themselves first, and then work in unison to place the race on a higher level. The feature of the Lincoln day program, February 12, at Mt. Moriah church will be the music. Only works of colored composers will be given. Plantation melodies will constitute part of the program. There will be several speakers.

OUTLI(IECAMPAIGH Men Offer Plan to Raise Funds For Guest House.

f A plan for a inancial campaign was outlined to the executive committee of the Richmond Guest House association by Ive men who have had a great deal of experience with such attempts, yesterday afternoon. The general working basis of the campaign which was suggested by Will Romey, Charles Jordan, H. S. Weed, Timothy Nicholson and E. M. Haas, was for a corps of one hundred women to organize in groups of ten, with a captain for each group, and canvass the city. In addition noon meetings were suggested to Interest the business people. A limited canvass, covering a period of five days, was believed to be the most practical and effective. No action will be taken until the committee has reported to the entire association.

the general health, and no woman can

reasonably hope to be beautiful unless healthy. For sale by all dealers. (Advertisement J

An appeal of the suit of John Hipskind, contractor, against the county commissioners, is probable as the result of the opinion rendered the commissioners by County Attorney Hoelscher. Attorney Hoelscher told the commissioners that in his opinion the decision of Judge Smith of Portland readily could- be reversed by another court. Judge Smith decided that the county should stand the cost of damages to the Liberty pike. A washout on an unaccepted part of the pike in 'March 1913, resulted in $1,500 damage for which Hipskind contended the county should pay because the road had been used for regular travel for six months prior to the floods and was then ready for acceptance. The demands of Hipskind for $7,000 which is part of the balance due him on the road, will hang fire for a short time. Legally the - commissioners must retain $8,500 until the entire road has been accepted, but in several previous cases, they have not withheld the twenty per cent of the

contract as specified by law.

PRESENT "MATER" TO PACKED HOUSE Earlham Day Dodgers Give Play in Admirable Fashion.'

Before a good house, the Earlham Day Dodgers presented "Mater", a play In three acts by Percy MacKaye, in a manner that excited much favorable comment and fully upheld the reputation for excellent dramatics that the Day Dodgers have established. The cast of five characters had difficult parts to perform. Miss Hazel Meek as "Mater" and Howard Messick were especially good and played their parts with an understanding that is unusual for amateurs. Miss Meek's playing of the role of a mother, who Is mistaken for her own daughter, and at the same time ia planning to secure the election of her son to the legislature, has. been favorably commented on by the coaches. Howard Messick, as Arthur Cullen, a politician, who is in love with 'Mater," made his first appearance In Earlham dramatics in a very creditable manner. Miss Pearl Earnest, as "Mary Dean" was very good, and played a difficult part with excellent interpretation.

The part of "Rudolph Vorbeck," a young German in loiwith Mary Dean was done .with goodffect by Wallace Gifford. Harold Taggart, as "Michael Dean" a fiery young political reformer, played an exceedingly difficult part with good effect. Blair Converse coached the cast with the exception of a few rehearsals when Miss Gwendolen Foulke and Mrs. Guy S. McCabe took charge. Special music for the occasion was furnished by a Day Dodgers orchestra.

WANTS LABOR BUREAU Jordon Believes Co-operation Will Be Promoted.

To promote more co-operation between the laboring men of Richmond and merchants and manufacturers. Secretary C. W. Jordan, of the Commercial club proposes a ' new bureau of labor. The Idea of the bureau is to promote better laboring conditions In the city and establish a department of resource so that at all times statistical records of ftie laboring conditions may be obtained. "It is not my idea that the bureau should act as a board of arbitration between the labor and capitalistic classes," said Mr. Jordon. This project is believed to be favorable to all members of the Commercial club as well as being favorable to both the laborers and manufacturers. .v
