ESTABLISHED 1870 LEADING RACE JOURNAJ THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 4485 VOLUME 33 IMPORTANCE OF 14TH U. S. CENSUS TO THE COLORED PEOPLE Because of the many economic changes since 1910, the importance of the approaching decennial census to the colored people should not be underestimated. These changes will be a matter of record in the history of the growth of the race, and of the Nation, and the statistical information which will be compiled from the data collected by the Census enumerators, who will canvass the United States in January should constitute a source of reliable information for this and for future generations. Through migration the colored population of some states has considerably increased while in others it has decreased the United States Census of 1910. Agricultural activities appear to be extending in new directions. Thousands of colored men and women have entered into the industrial life of the Nation producers. Indications, in certain states, point to a large increase in home ownership. A substantial growth in the number of business enterprises owned and operated by colored men is reflected in their newspapers and magazines which are growing in number and influence. The number of professional men and women are steadily increasing and the percentage of illiteracy is rapidly decreasing. The accuracy of the Census reports depends largely upon the williness of each individual to answer fully each question asked by the enumerator, and it is only in this way that reliable data can be obtained from which can be determined the social and economic progress made by each element of the population in the United States. The Census Bureau emphasizes the point that all information collected by the Census enumerators is strictly confidential. It can not be used as a basis for taxation, for the enforcement of any Federal, State, or local law, or in any way whatsoever that will cause harm to the person giving it or to his affairs. No one, therefore, should hesitate to give to the Census enumerators complete and truthful replies which the enumerators can use in filling out the printed Census schedule carried by them, nor should any attempt be made by any to cover up the true facts that pertain to each man and woman. Courage is a wonderful asset. We have recognized its worth and given it an honored place amid the galaxies of virtues, and yet it is not seen enough to become common. No individual, no race, no nation can hope to achieve any enviable success, that does not cultivate this virtue. Even brute courage has its devotees, and it seems that this finer, nobler courage that makes one love truth, respect lif, and detrime to do and dare that principle will not die: would be sought with vigor. Courageous devotion to principle is the bulwark of any civilization. Spasmodic gusts of sentiment may revive; but the reaction makes us see more clearly the need of something enduring. Peace can only come when our country's devotion to principle will be staunch and firm. We are headed for the shoals, and the guiding rays of a Daniel-like courage are needed to save us. We deport the bolshevists, and prate about anarchy being throttled. Emma Goldman was the incarnation of an idea, and idens cannot be deported. We strike too at a fundamental of pure Americanism which believes in and allows free speech. I do not uphold, neither condemn the actions of the "Reds," what concerns me is America's refusal to act with courage. Let the Declaration of Independence be supported by a courageous adherence to the constitution; let the people know for themselves that this The California Lagie is "the land of the free and the home of the brave;" prove to them that America believes in justice and right, and the people themselves will handle the "Reds, Whites" or anybody else. The day of reckoning is at hand. America! The Star of Destiny waits to lead you on. Courage can keep your feet in the path. The republic, torn and distracted with fears awaits your decision. D. C. ROBESON (To Be Continued) RACE: CITIZENS GIVEN RECOGNITION On Tuesday, December 30th the Los Angeles County Civil Service Commission and Bureau of Efficiency held an examination for the purpose of selecting employees for the various vacancies in the Hall of Records and other County buildings. About twenty colored citizens took the examination. The Commission invited the following well known colored citizens to assist the regular examiners in examining the applicants: Mrs. Eloise Bibb-Thompson; Mrs. L. V. Stewart, head of the colored employees at Bullock's and Noah D. Thompson, Editorial department of the Evening Express and former co-worker with Booker T. Washington at Tuskegee Institute. County Examiners, B. A. Davis and A. Davis and Paul W. Brown had charge of the examination and were assisted by our colored representatives chiefly in the oral examination of the applicants. Secretary F. E. Doty of the County Civil Service Commission and the county supervisors are to be commended for their attitude of fairness toward seekers of positions with the county and for establishing a precedent for other public officials to follow. THE ALLEN CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR OR LEAGUE (By B. W. Inghram, State President.) TO THE PASTORS, OFFICERS AND MEMBERS of the A. M. E. CHURCH, GREETINGS: It is indeed a pleasure to give out this information concerning the growth and advancement of the Allen Christian Endeavor League in the State of California. Little did the founders of the church dream when they lifted the banner of African Methodism to the breeze that it would extend it boundry to so many lands and peoples. The Allen Christian Endeavor League was born of Providential necessity; its influence and worth cannot be denied by the most critical; its mission in the church is phenomenal, its stand for the principles enunciated by Christ is indeed the Morning Star of Hope to the church. The Allen C. E. League has a spotless reputation and who shall estimate the cost of a priceless reputation? That impress which gives the human dress its currency, without which she stands, despised, debased and depreciated. Without this reputation she glories in her birth would have no distinction; she would have no reverence for the aged; her station in the church would have no dignity; the beauties of her many charities would have no charm. If it were not for the fact that we stand for Christianity in earnest, every grace she has earned would depreciate, every dignity she has attained would degrade. The State Allen Christian Endeavor League stands for the same principle, born at the eleventh hour, it has nevertheless had a vision; it has seen the distress of its weaker members in the state and has saved them in their death struggle. True it has been said that we are going too fast, but we shall not slacken our pace; we shall not retaliate; we shall not despair, because of the cry of the has-been or the wall of the wounded. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1920 THE OLDEST LARGEST pe; we shall not retreat under the most violent shell-fire, neither shall we be daunted by the spirit of uncoath words or thoughts, but as Leopold and its nortes marched on Vag Saw unchecked so shall we march on the many vices that are attempting to strangle out the very life of the church. Can anyone then set at naught the work of the Sate League? Through our committee system we are leaving a plan to protect our young manhood and womanhood. Lawed men have stalked about on every corner but the church has not seen them; their work of degradation and shame has gone on unchecked; the lamb of our womanhood has been stained; their blood has been sucked by the wolf of lust and poison and many a fair daughter of the hearth lay dying in the gatter of sin today. Who then can say that we work too fast? We shall go faster still until the spirit of Allen small rush through the state saving souls for Christ. Like the wheels of the Juggernaut it shall grind into powder any form of vice, sin or folly that shall attempt to depreciate the principle that the Allen Christian Endeavor League has pledged to sustain. Never was there a brighter future for the League; never was there a greater duty; to perform than now. The members of the League must give efficient service. The entire Christian world has grasped the spirit of service, therefore, let every Endeavorer in our church be up and prepared for service. To give this service intelligently it calls for sacrifice on the part of each of us. Would we then sacrifice a personal ambition for the cause of Christ? This question has confounded the sage of our church—the church today stands behind an abyss—who then shall dare to intimidate the young men of our church and race? We need not go to Asia, neither to Africa nor the Isles of the Sea, the heathen is pounding at our very door today. Many a hand, bony from starvation, has been reached out to us but we have failed to grasp it, the ghost of fear, hate and superstition has watched us through our window. Is the church undefined? Every officer of the State Allen C. D. League holds a senior office in our church, Sunday School or local League. Some fear our great churches will not support us, we have no fear they will be our greatest ally. Size and power mean nothing where right and justice reign. It was the bulk form of the Phillistine who arrayed himself and swore vengeance against the frail frame of David, but the arm of the Israelite was sustained by the power of the Spirit of God and the great Goliath fell under the blow in this bcy. As He delivered Joseph from the house of Potiphar so will he deliver us from unjust criticism. The message comes to you today to be steadfast and unmovable, to pray for those in need. The old African Methodist Church has not swerved from its principle or doctrine since the days when Richard and Sarah Allen prayed for its deliverance from the hand of tyrants. Who then dares put a stumbling block in the way of his beloved? It is this faith that will consecrate the humble circle of the hearth. It will at times extend itself to the circumference of the horizon which will nerve the arm of the patriot to save his church. It is this faith that will prompt the prophets in their charios of fire and in their visions of heaven to bequeath to the steadfast in African Methodism the mantle of their memories. Every man and race has fastened their eyes upon our church. Let the church then stand for truth, equity, honor and judgment. The Allen C. E. League shall not fall one whit below the standard. It seems that the church of God has stood by and jeered, has smoked her pipe of peace in times of war, while the arch enemy of truth and honor have marched on our young manhood and womanhood. The fathers and mothers of the church have sung lullabies instead of war songs. The stigma of shame has found its place in all forms of society and now is attempting to pollute the church with its poisonous fangs, yet many of our A. M. F. Churches have not bowed their knee CHARMING LOS ANGELES SOCIETY GIRL WEDS AT OAKLAND The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. MR. AND MRS.

NUMBER 48 At a regular Business Meeting last Monday night, the officers and members of this church put themselves on record as being in line for their rightful place in this community. This church with its five hundred bonified membership for a number of years has been rather modest in tooting its own horn, but last Monday evening, with the spirit of a new era coming with a New Year the little old church again hurled its banner to the breeze and in so doing announced its intention of taking first place. The pastor's salary was raised $50 and more than a Fifteen Hundred Dollars was reported by Treasurer Bate in the Building Fund. Secretary Johnson held the body spell-bound when he read the long list of members taken in during 1919. And the old ship moves on. We met you first in the Golden West Where the flowers were in bloom Where hills and poinsettas rest Their heads where there should be Your life to us has been sunshine Your manners meek and mild Your actions pure and innocent. As that of a little child. We love you for these graces And will always bear in mind That you have served in many places Your words were always kind. You have been the means of helping those Who could not see the way. You sent them a message of God's love And they saw the light of day. Now as you leave for distant lands Across the ocean wide You'll find over there extended hands The Savious as your guide. Think not of the broad pace of many miles. That separate us here. But the same God with his loving smile Will take care of you over there. Say "Aure Voir" dont say good-bye For we will meet again A parting always brings a sigh. And sometimes gives us pain. Our meeting may not be on earth But sure "Twil be above Where there is joy and happiness. Andd all is peace and love.

THE PEOPLES' INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHURST LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREATIONAL CHURCH "Through the year with God," was the general theme for the entire day's services, last Sunday. In the morning the Pastor exhorted his hearers to adopt as their resolution for the year. He showed how God's strength would be equal to any condition which the new year might hold in store for any of us. In the evening, he discussed faith in God, as the only guarantee for success, security and stability during the coming trials and experiences of the year. The singing of our great choir was easily the feature of the day. All hymns and anthems and solos harmonized with the general theme and contributed to a better understanding of the sermon and paved the way for the great wave of spiritual understanding of the sermon and paved the way for the great wave of spiritual enthusiasm which swept the entire audience. The new hymns, a gift of Brother Marcellus Thomas, were used for the first time, Sunday. They are fully appreciated was seen in the new sweetness and inspiration with which the Choir sang and the many Amens, which filled the auditorium. Mrs. Wm. Turner was the morning soloist and her sweet, rich contralto voice never was shown to better advantage. In the evening Mr. Rutherford Sanford, our splendid basso, sang as he alone can. Four persons united with the church and an offering of $212.89 was given. Our Sunday School began its graded course of work Sunday morning and it promises to become one of the very best and most effective of the kind in the entire West. Teachers and pupils, alike, were happily interested in the new work and all are jubilant over the outlook. Have you seen the vestibule since the beautifier has put the final touches upon it? Take a look at it and see if you will not resolve to help that good work along. That is but a sample of what you will see, in the entire building, soon if you will but help. The next attraction, extraordinary, a big song service, on the evening of the Fourth Sunday in this month, in which the Choir will sing the old Gospel songs and Spiritual Melodies we all love so well. This is but one of the big surprises which the Choir Executive Committee is planning for the near future. Be in your pew next Sunday before services begin. Remember, "Through the year with God." We have made a splendid beginning, let us keep it up. HAMILTON M. E. CHURCH Cor. 18th and Naomi Ave. Rev. S. M. Beane, Pastor. Sunday services were up to their usually high standard.

CHURCH—1400 Newton St. The first Sunday in 1920 was fittingly observed at this church. The pastor preached at the morning service from the subject, "The sign that Saves," and at the evening service on "Personal Responsibility." The Holy spirit was present and blessed the hearts of the worshippers. At the close of th encurring service the official assembled in the altar and Brother W. T. E. Robinson the chairman on behalf of the official board presented the pastor with a beautiful gold watch. The presentation was very beautiful and the response by the pastor was brief but touching. The Epworth. League under the leadership of Brother L. J. Polk is growing in interest and numbers. The League as never before is making itself felt for good. The unexcelled Choir of this church continues to thrill and charm with its singing, Strangers and visitors always find a great satisfaction at this church. Come here to welcome us and join us. CHE CALIFORNIA EAGLE LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREGA- TIONAL CHURCH 54th Street and Central Ave. Rev. E. E. Lightner, Pastor. The first Sunday of the New Year was fittingly observed in two appro- priate services at this church. The pastor occupied the pulpit at both services. At the morning hour the subject was "Duties—Past and Presen- t:" Text, "Sleep on now and take your rest—Rise and let us be going." (Matt. 26:45, 46). At the evening hour he used as his text: "And we know not with what we must serve the Lord until we come thither." Ex- 0:26. The Sunday School, under the superintendency of Mr. Geo. Baker held a very interesting and helpful session. This Sunday, January 11th will be of special interest. There will be at the morning service the installation of the newly elected officers for this year. The pastor will preach at both services. Morning subject: "One Body in Christ." Evening subject: "Steadfastness." Christian Endeavor 6.30 p.m., Topic: "A Strong Character and How it is attained."; Prov. 4-1 13. You are cordially invited to attend all these services.

We need more efficient workers in this department. At 7.30 p.m. a large audience floed into the church to listen to sermon by "Pastor Holt" who chose for a text, "Ye shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, in all Judice, and unto the utmost parts of the earth." Acts 1:5; Subject: "God's Witnesses."

Holt, D. D., Pastor. The threatening weather which calmed into peaceful sunshine on last Sunday found an appreciative audience gathered into the specious auditorium anxious to take part in the "First Sunday Service" in the New Year. More than sixty children were in attendance in the Sunday School under the new elected Super-Three live souls came into our army with ready hands to work. Offering for the day $4.42.

The past Sunday the beginning of this year's work was a day of Gospel feasting for the members and friends of Bethel. Sunday School was well attended and had an interesting and profitable session. At the morning hour the pastor gave a general culigizing of the previous year's work, after which he delivered a powerful and expository sermon. Text. St. Matt. 6:18. The Message was Deed, School and education. All 9 m. the V. P. N. pastor teaching sessions, taught the children of all newly created Friends, the boys trating message. At this service two accessions were made to the membership, making four thus far this year. Excellent singing by the Chor. Next weeks' services as usual. All welcome. WESLEY M. E. CHURCH Eighth and San Julian St. Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor. Wesley began the new year with a will. In spite of the damp and threatening weather, a full congregation heard the great sermon by the pastor on "The Gospel of another Chance." The evening sermon was preached by the Rev. Wm. J. Clemons one of the graduates of Ganon Seminary, Atlanta, Ga., who is planning to take some studies in U. S. C. next year, and while here is a member of Wesley. The audience will never forget th lessons he drew from the tople, "Does it Pay?" This Sunday promises to be a great day. Every member should hear the pastor's morning sermon on "How to Make this the Greatest Year in the History of our local church," and the whole city should hear the evening sermon on "What's the Matter with Los Angeles' Christians." This is the first in a series of sermons on the General Topic."What's the Matter with Los Angeles?" The Lyceum had an excellent social and literary meeting on Tuesday night. More than fifty of the finest young people of the city were present and spent a very enjoyable time together. This organization promises soon to be the social and literary center of the city. Come to the next meeting, Tuesday night, January 20th and see for yourself. Come and worship with us. Strangers and visitors always welcome. The first Sunday after New Year's brought out a very large number to our Sunday School and the Lesson and Spirit of the session was considerably helpful. The 11 o'clock service was a veritable benediction. Not withstanding unfavorable weather conditions the church was filled with whole-hearted worshippers and Dr. Prowd was in good form as he gave out the New Year's Text. Tsa 30:21 "Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee saying, this is the way, walk ye in it." For about twenty minutes the Pastor held his audience spellbound, as he pictured the relationship between God and His spiritual children. Dr. Prowd placed emphasis on God's vigilent oversight and His everlasting care of those who commit themselves to Him. The hearty spiritual responses all over the church were evidences of joyful acceptance of the message. The Covenant Service followed, and indeed the hearts of the people were poured out. The Junior Missionary and B. Y. P. U. Societies held excellent meetings. The Lord's supper at night was accompanied with God's presence and blessing. Several joined the church. On Monday night the church heid it annual meeting and here also the Lord was on hand to direct and to bless. The church showed great progress in the in-gatherin of souls and also in finance. Mr. S. P. Johnson, the Clerk is to be complimented for the splendid report made also the Treasurer, Mr. J. H. Bate. The meeting will go down in history as the most harmonious ever held within the walls of the Second Church: The pastor was remembered, not only by the beautiful things said about him by various ones, but also by a raise in his salary of $50.

One may be moved to laughter creases by hearing different styles of musical utterance. Music is the greatest vehicle that we possess for the transmission of our emotions. Words can never fully express our feelings, and the most polished flow of language falls often to express what a simple folk tune easily accomplishes. Universal in its appeal, unlimited in its development, it is easily the greatest and most expressive form of art in existence. Yet, our appreciation of this art is limited by our conception of the tonal image and by our lack of intellectual development. That is to say, that we enjoy most, that with which we are familiar. The potent appeal of the popular song is its familiar melodic sequence. How many times have you heard the same tune with slight variations, both rythmic and melodic in the bulk of popular music? This is one of the things that causes it popularity and in order to pass this stage one must view it from an intellectual standpoint. Hence the need for study and cultural development. The best music would be as popular and well-liked if the masses could hear it as often as they do the other kind and were taught to listen to it intelligently. The musicians realize this and the increase in the number of symphony concerts, recitals, community singing, etc., are tangible proofs that locally, at least, we are climbing one notch higher in musical development than numerous other localities. Te study of the theoretical and artistic side of the art is as great a brain developer as mathematics and should be given more serious attention by those who seek more active and stronger mental powers.

MEMORIES From the lack of interest manifested in Emancipation Day, which occurs on either September 22nd, when the proclamation was issued or on January first, the date on which it went into effect, we infer that the colored people want to even forget that their race was ever enslaved. With this view however, we do not share, because this race has not been the only enslaved race and to appreciate the heights which we have attained, it can best be preserved from the depths from which we came. Much ado was made and glaring headlines appeared by the big dailies a few days ago, about train robbers on the Southern Pacific at Niland, California, and before the papers had gotten on the streets the bubble had bursted and it was only a few laborers who were stealing a ride seeking the cotton fields of Imperial Valley to gain a stake. As we have remarked many times before, the headlines are only a part of an organized effort to cast odium upon the struggling, but rising Negro. CROOKED PREACHERS AND IMMOKAL LEADERS We have from time to time paid our respects to the crooked and immoral preachers, we have no certain individuals in mind but we note throut our travels that their work is in evidence, to the sad regret and humiliation of a race, and we rise to say that it is time that the people should take notice of the hobbles which they have pinned upon their progress and give them the ticket of Leave Plan. Because of our stand against the country we are aware of our popularity with quite a few particular gentry, it makes us appreciate so much more the strong support which we receive from the staunch and upright preachers who labor for the religious uplift of the race. We are with them and they are with us for the things which make us a people ubright and grand. We are proud of the fact that 30 per cent of our preachers in Los Angeles stand for cleanliness and are fitted for the stations which they occupy and the great big problem is to make it 100 per cent; to do that they must in no uncertain manner let it be known that they will not recognize, condone or uphold the preachers who are the barriers for progress. El Centre Colored population this day suffers and bleeds as the victim of crooked preachers other communities likewise We are on the job wise to every move, and will continue to speak out against the crooked preachers and immoral leaders. 1829 (B. C. Robeson, Contributing Editor). A New Year is dawning. The New Year with its unrest and constant, strikes and lockouts which passes into history. No storm will follow its passing. The hopes were blasted, more shattered, more aspira-ted than ever before. The storms which strike ter-ri-ble the soul have wrapped the mantle of gloom. The storms now that reso-ment not only be made less thousands swear allegiance to his reign. The testing has come—"Once to every man and Nation comes the moment to decide." God in dealing with man urges him in various ways to read the signs. By reading aright he may be a vase crowned with beauty, by desregard he may become a cuspider. As with a man, so with a Nation. Peace Treaties or any other set of laws can never bring rest. A sweeping change in thought and practice is the door. Let the country turn back to the Declaration of Independence, and see that all men's rights are protected and liberty made secure. Let it hurl injustice from the throne and cease calling for a blind patriotism, a love of country that is a sounding brass. As individuals the same principles hold true. We face the year with problems unsolved, habits unmuzzled, situations unmet. The courage to have convictions, the courage to stand by them. Determination to guide our craft by the golden rule, realizing that all rights are sacred. Walking in the footsteps of the lowly Nazarene. These things will give us peace of mind and sweetness of life. The New Year is here. We can get what we want as a country, as individuals.

Brooks) The New Year brings glad tidings to everyone it seems, as Seattle celebrated it as never before. New Year's Eve was the largest evening of the year in Seattle and when the clocks tolled the hour of 12, bells began to ring, whistles began to blow and everybody seemed to be full of glee and happiness. Watch meeting at the A. M. F. Church (pastored by Rev. Granant) was crowded on that evening. Sisters and Brothers talked and told their determinations of being being glad that they were spared to see another New Year. There seemed to be quite an enthusiasm in the church on that evening. They sang songs that were solemn and very enthusiastic. And again, I will say that it is Leap Year; that gives the ladies a chance to have a say. The Alpha Cutting and Tennis Club gave a grand ball on New Year's night at Greyerbiehall Hall, 28th and Jackson St. It was crowded, jammed and packed so, that one could hardly dance. I guess they will see by this time that they will have to secure a larger hall hereafter as the people could not get accommodations to oven hang their wraps. On New Year's eve night the Whangdooodle Entertainers played an engagement all night long for the Automobile Club, for men and women. They danced the Old Year out and the New Year in and the Whangdooodles played the vamp until they couldn't vamp any more. "Some time — I'll say so."

A very splendid musical program was contributed to the people of Seattle Sunday evening as an Xmas gift by the Choir of the Mt. Lion Baptist Church and volunteers who helped to perfect the occasion. The rendition of such an excellent program brought the very highest appreciation from all who were so fortunate to be present. Much credit is due Mrs. Stella Jackson, whose ability as a choir leader demands recognition. Mrs. Jackson seems enthusiastic at all times and never fails to put a plenty of vim in whatever she undertakes. Those laptists and Seattle generally is proud of such women as Mrs. Jackson and they have something to be proud of too, for she weighs only 250 pounds, we would not exchange her for two folks. Mr. Claude Ellison of 2329 E. Madison, slipped off Yakima, Xmas, despite his being watched by Seattleites and brought back with him the choice of Mr. Alex Harris' family and therefore the choice of Yakima; at any rate he wouldn't exchange her for all Yakima.

Crumbly---RealEstate---Insurance---Notary Public---785 San Pedro Street SERMONETTE Miss Ellen Consuelo Prowd GOOD BYE There comes a time in each one's life when we cannot refrain from saying the saddest word of all—Goodbye. Sometimes we wonder why the parting should come and why Fate should be so unkind to us to deprive us of our happiness. But have you considered how good God is to us to take us each step of the way, nor knowing where our lot will be cast; or what will be our station in life? If we but knew we would be miserable beings on earth. When these partings come we cannot tell why. Nor is it our right to question, but one things we know, we know our Heavenly Father knows and by His knowing we are satisfied to follow wheresoever He may lead. As we go through life we must expect the clouds as well as the sunshine. Would it not be so fish in us to want the sunshine every day and not look for clouds? As Tennyson beautifully puts it "Into each life some rain must fall." Let each and every one of us be sunbeams down here for the Master, for after all these earthly things perish, but the things of life are eternal. Let us seek after the things which will be able to profit us by bye and bye and not let us chase after vain shadows. When Alice in wonderland said to the cat, "Would you tell me, please which cat I ought to go from here?" The cat replied, "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," whereupon Alice sighed. "I don't much care where;" to which the cat made answer. "Then it does not matter which way you go." "But I want to go somewhere," said Alice. "Oh, you are sure to do that," said the cat, "we are always sure to get somewhere, but if we don't much care where, the somewhere is likely to be decidedly a wrong somewhere." Let us all always seek the right path so we may be able in the sweet hye and oye, after finishing our work here, we may be able to go home to heaven, having followed on earth the right somewhere. Keep me unspotted from sin dear Lord. I pray for thy glory—to tell of the story. Of how Thou hast suffered and died! Farewell! Farewell!! Farewell!!
