In an nddress before a mass meet
ing of negroes in Atlanta recently,
Bishop Henry II. Tumor of the
African Methodist Episcopal
church, declared tho Reparation of
. t the races was the only solution of
the race problem. In lils remarks
Bishop Turner urged that oppor
tunities .should be offered to uegroes
to settle in Africa, by a reduction
?. of rates on steamship lines, siatiflg
"this nation of aggregated people
X will elthor have to open a highway
to Africa for tho discontented black
Sglttin or t^ie negro question will flln
^ 7: der this government."
Bishop " Turner contended thatr
.??.by separation he did not mcau that
everyone should go or must go,
but that We're should be an oppor
tunity granted for the departure of
"snob black men and women as are
sell-reliant and have those man
hood aspirations that God planted
in them and UegradingJaws will In
tensify."

r Information Abopt Plumbing.
Perfect- pin in bing lo cities is a
necessity ; it is something the pub
lie should know all about, but iu
Tesllty know very little. When
perfect it-Is a luxury; it brings)
Ipca. health and happiness wherever]
placed. Hut if it is imperfect it In,
'SiL. jnst the reverse, it brings on sick
ness, often death. One of the first |
I:.,., questions a doctor will when
called upon to attend one or more
"ol your family, is "How nbout your
ftltitnbing? is it In good order?"

knows whero your troublos are numt

know fact that 75 per cent, of the
buildings where we live, eat and
aleep. and work and apeud most of
our liven, aewer air is flowing into
some part of the building, endan
gering our lives. To keep your
plumbing peifeot and be euro that
there la no ecwer air entering your
home# and bulling*, good care
abould be taken of all flxturea; also
of all the plpea, vent pipee, aoil
pipes, and waate' papea. They
should be ao perfect that they ean
bo got at bandy, ao they can be
kept clean and iu good working or
der at all tlraea. '
The whole plumbing ay at em
should be inspected, and tested at
leaatoDoo a year, by a good and
competent plumbing engineer, and
abonld be given what la knowa aa
a amoke test, which ia done by
putnpf&g smoke, with a machine
made for that purpose into the
whole rjyatem to a preaaure. if
there is a defect the smoke will
soon show itself, thereby showing
where the sewer air is (lowing into
your buildings.
Have the defects repaired and
Jthe cause remedied. Clean out
all aoil pipes, wasto plpo nnd vent
pipe, ant) drains of all 0ith and
dirt.. Then disinfect the whole sys
tem thoroughly, After the above)
has been done, test again ^itb the
Brooke teat so as to" puro that
all of the system Is air tight, and
?bat there will ba no more llow of
Hower air into your building.
There arc other teste given by
plumbers known as peppermi n t
tpats, etc. but they aro not relia

f Wo havo made known sonio foot*
in the foregoing that at least 90
percent, of our Camden people are
ignorent of, ??d- tbey are facta that
they should know nil about. All
plumbofB aro robbers is tho general
verdict of tho people, but a greater
mistake never wue made. The
.plumber is your friend, inetead of
trying to get him to cut some olT
your bill, you ought to add a pit
auoe for %} surely deserves it and u
good Job cannot bo dono without
good pay
Now my good people of Camden
let mo toll you what is needed here
first of all, SEWKitfl, then the noxi
thing, a iirat clasH rigid plumbing
ordinance, nnd then a sanitary in
spector that will enforce the sani

> A Splendid Showing.
JubI three and ono-half yours ago
thoije was organised in Camden a
branch of the Fraternal Union of
Amurica. The organization was cf
f acted with fifteen charter tnemhora.
Embracing, as it does, fraternal
and insurance feature* it has stead
ily grow n",*t>n til to-day it ia deserv
edly one of the cno^t popular boeie
tiea that we have. Only one frpter
? brother W. -C. Fail ? has died
since the Lodge waa erected. Hia
insurance vwh? paid op promptly.
Mr. Ntwmmi Las'w, District Man
ager for four Southern Statet", paid
our L"dgo a visit last week, and
made a moat interesting and in
structive speech. Thirty new mem
bers were enrolled, and the Lodge
rocoived an impetus of progress from
this visit, which will redound to the
lasting good of all of our members.
