When but a boy, He said, "I must be about my father's business. Those of us who have lived since His day, have learned that His business was to give to the world a religion that knew no race, but the human race; that knew no condition but a condition of need; one that regarded neither high rank nor low position, but one that made its chief advocate say, "I am debtor to all men, to the Greek and the barbarian, to the Sythian, the bondman and the freeman." The religions of the world, even Judaism, had been narrow and appealed to particular classes and built a barrier around themselves, such that the masses could never penetrate, and these were left to shift for themselves as best they could. But Christ came and established a religion for the people: we might add, especially for the poor. Palestine in His day received the happy message, "To the poor the gospel is preached." One of the peculiar truths about this wonderful Democratic religion is that unlike all other systems, it did not begin from any school of thought, did not seek the endorsement of the academy of Plato. It went to the people, trusted the human race; it was not a system studied and criticized and then sent forth into the world with orders and commands to be obeyed. The author of Christianity wrote only once and that was in the sand, and was easily erased. But men's hearts were the tablets upon which He wrote and His followers today seem to enjoy a heart to heart message, rather than a big written theological thesis. Christ in his day was civilized. He specially on account of his association; but He went straight ahead, carrying out his purposes and intentions.

CHRITIANTY, THE RELIGION OF DEMOCRACY. Galatians 6:2, "Bear ye one another's burdens." Many have been the religions of the world, during its history but these have all given way to the onward march of the true principles of the religion of Jesus Christ. For Christianity is still pressing forward and has gained momentum as it has steadily marched down the corridors of the ages. Other religions seemed to have been the reflection of the social atmosphere about them—and effect, or result, and not in themselves forces or causes. But Christianity is a cause—force—an idea set in motion in the world, and the world is being transformed by it. History gives proof to the fact that civilization has had her great men. We can boast of Socrates with his power of thought; Napoleon with his mastery of men; Shakespeare with his command of language; Rupael with his witchery of color; Aristotle with his convincing logic and are compared with the little Jewish boy of Nazareth and the influence that He exerts, we must say, as was the conditions on the Mount BROOKLYN HOT SPRINGS ECHO HOT SPRINGS Christianity, governments that are not founded upon the heart principles of the religion, are today crumbling and falling. We see everywhere a spirit on the part of the people to rid themselves of the autocrat—the worldly boss, the self-constituted god, the ruling master; and in the place of these autocratic forms of government, democracies are the order of the day. Christianity makes men think of themselves, as MEN, and after all, that is the only thing that counts. What one man thinks of another, should not affect him, but that that makes the difference is, "WHAT ONE THINKS OF HIMSELF." Democracy is that form of government in which every man counts for one. That is, it takes note of the humblest, as well as the greatest. Christianity is the only religion that the world, up to this time has known—that takes note of every individual: It perhaps will not be out of place to give a few reasons why the Christian religion is the religion of Democracy. 1—THE PRINCIPLE OF SACRIFICE. "Bear ye one another's burdens." All the other religions allow the strong to expoit the weak; Darwin's survival of the fittest is the natural order in all other religions. According to these the strongest, the powerful, the educated, have the right to have the world for themselves and to absorb the less privileged in their happy careers. Carlyle advocated this. But Christianity denounces this in its central principle, "Wealth, health and knowledge are given as a trust." "If any man be chief among you, let him be servant." As Christians' if we know anything, we must ourselves be the servant of the weakness of our age. God in His Providence is the great rectifier of the ages, and He brings down the worldly great and lifts up the poor. Christianity recognizes this Providence and endeavors to put man on the same plane of spiritual equality. Most autocratic men who would use the world as a tool place when Christianity uses its true place in the world—and this great war is nothing less than the sword bathed in heaven, making a place for growing Christianity. 2 — CHRISTIANITY REFORMS THE WORLD BL IDEAS. History gives no ther parallel—Christianity not only trusts itself to the mind, to the supremacy of the soul, but it makes all its aggressive advances along that line—Christ says, "Go, preach to every creature" even the savage African worshipping at his devil bush, give him the gospel IDEA, and a change must come in his life. The world's greatest agitator, was Jesus Christ of Jerusalem, who t transforms the world with an IDEA. In this, Christianity differs from all other religions and shows itself equally helpful to the most ignorant as well as the most learned, doing good for both the rich and the poor. The Christian idea is the leaven that changes the world; this is seen in the building of hospitals, schools, orphan homes and in the bringing about of prison reforms and child welfare movements. It is uniquely the religion of the people—The Religion of Democracy. 3. The third great reason why Christianity is the religion for Democracy, is its ideal of woman. The level of a man's spiritual life and the spiritual life of an age is measured by its ideal of womanhood. No matter when you test society, what its intellectual or moral development, the idea it holds of woman is a test and measure of the progress it has made. I do not mean any particular class or race of women, but women. Sometimes a man will go to extremes to protect his sister, wife or daughter, but is not so careful about the wife, sister or daughter of his neighbor. Sometimes men will exert themselves and do anything to protect the women of their race, but they are not so careful about the women of another race or nationality. But Christianity gives us the idea that womanhood is sacred and the creatures who are to people the world. Through the unfolding of the Christian idea, women will be able to hold up their heads and will be encouraged to develop themselves along various lines as well as their brothers. Christian philanthropy manifests itself in two chief ways, viz: (1) Alleviates, (2) Cures. That is, if a man is in trouble (1) helps him, (2) removes the cause, so that the trouble will not overtake him again. Concretely—Austid to the Belgians helps them with food, shelter, and raiment. But our army is bringing about a condition that removes the cause of their suffering, and we hope in the name of Christ that it will not be possible for the iron-shod oppressor to ever be able to repeat his murderous acts. Both are equally Christian, the giving of bread, and the bursting of shells. Without a prophet's vision I can see the Christian idea, working its miracles and wonders in the world, and before God winds up this great conflict, and when the true religion of Democracy takes its rightful place, we will find not only autocracy on its knees, but many a poor man, and many a backward race, will be for the first time standing on their feet, Christianity, through its founder, says, "COME UNTO ME ALL YE THAT LABOR, AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL WILL YOU REST." All burden bearers are asked to day their burdens at His feet. 4. "LOVE DIVINE, ALL LOVE EXCELLING." Church Column FORM OF SERVICES FOR MT. CANAAN BAPTIST CHURCH. Since prayer is the Christian's weapon, I ask the Christian army to offer up a prayer to God at eleven o'clock Sunday morning that the malady that is now sweeping the land may be stayed; that the Christian family may be able to mingle their voices together once more at the house of worship. Pray for a just and righteous peace for all mankind as would be pleasing to Almighty God. Read Psalms 102, 17th verse. This will show God's regard for prayer. Psalms 106, 44th verse. One of the saddest and most pathetic accidents occurred last Tuesday, Oct. 15th, when Bro. Joel Porter was killed by a train. He was employed in one of the government plants at Nashville, Tenn. His mangled body was brought here and buried Saturday afternoon. His death removed from the home a beloved husband and father. He was very ardent in his Christian duties as a member of Mt. Canaan Baptist church and was noted for his regulation in attendance and his quiet, manly ways. He possessed an immeasurable love for his two little children. He will be sadly missed by them, and Mt. Canaan has lost a faithful member. He leaves a wife, two children, mother, sister, brother and other relatives, also a host of friends, who services were held at the grave, where the pastor, Rev B. H. Evans preached one of those touching sermons and a general manifestation of grief was exhibited by all those present. Rev B. H. Evans, Pastor. Mrs. C. A. Harding, Reporter On Friday evening, October 18th, a host of members and friends of Rev. G. B. Ashford and wife, were seen wending their way to the parsonage on King Street with heavy ladened baskets and packages of good things to eat. It was quite a surprise and a very agreeable one, said the good pastor. He also said that words were inadequate to express their gratitude to the faithful and loyal members and friends of Visitor's Chapel, and that he longed for and was also praying for the early lifting of the ban, that is keeping apart the flock of the Lord Jesus Christ. Let us pray without ceasing and especially for our soldier boys upon the battlefield and in the cantonments. Let us pray for an early restoration of the community from this present epidemic. Let us not forget that the annual conference is only a few days off and every member and friend is asked to help us make a report commensurate with our standing. The pastor and secretary can be found in the pastor's study Sunday, Oct. 27th from 11 a.m., to 8:30 p.m. W. S. Gardner, Sec. We desire to extend to our many friends our sincere thanks and heartfelt appreciation for their kind words and beautiful floral offerings during this our time of sorrow. Mrs. J. S. Porter. Children and Relatives. OUR BOYS IN BATTLE. OUR BOYS IN BATTLE. That the negro soldier is doing his part in France is shown by the following communication sent to the New York Age from the front: The German infantry attacked at 4:30 in the morning. In their advanced trenches the negroes had left only a few patrols with orders to withdraw as soon as they found themselves outnumbered. But almost every yard of the trenches had been sown with dynamite and hundreds of Boches were blown to atoms the moment they jumped into them. In the positions along the main line of resistance our Negroes waited with unshaken nerve for the foe to appear. He never did. Battered by our curtain of fire, infilated by volleys from machine guns tucked away in deep dugouts and brought up only when their creeping barrage had passed by panicky lest mines explode under their feet, the Germans never got beyond the front line the Allies had deliberately abandoned before the onslaught began. By 8 a. m., their left flank had been completely checked without the necessity of a counter attack. An hour later the Negro unit was ordered to move to the left, where the fighting was still at its height, and a counter thrust by our side appeared advisable. The companies were obliged to make their way southward under shellfire almost as severe as the preparatory bombardments they had just undergone. They marched in little widely separated groups, creeping along four almost parallel roads. "As I watched them hiking along with shells cutting capers wherever they," the Lieutenant Colonel continued, "I was willing to have the war end right then and there. Well, they got the line, and they new line, without a castle again." More of the same kind of good for tune followed. The enemy suddenly ceased to struggle in thi s sector and so the proposed counter attack was called off. Circumstances made it imperative, however for the Americans to go into the firing line again. For four hours they had sat tight under the heaviest artillery hammering the world has seen; for four more they had stood by to repel boarders; for another four they had marched across country, still under terrific shell fire; they were dog-tied and without food or water. Yet they moved into line without a whimper—and had an insignificant percentage of casualties, while the French troops they relieved hiking rearward over the same path, suffered severe losses. Furthermore, the sector rapidly became so quiet, rations and supplies were brought up the same night. The sector did not remain quiet long of course. Next day in fact it waked to brick activity, for the French had already begun the series of little rushes in which they drove the foe back to his line of departure — that is, out of the advanced trench element he had been permitted to occupy temporarily. The tactics employed called for local attacks by assault, groups little larger than patrols. One of these groups would charge a certain German center of resistance and in savage bayonet fighting clean it of Boches, whose tenacity had been weakened by the disprising failure of their colossal push. There was always sharp fighting going on on a small scale. Trenches had disappeared, blotted out by artillery of both sides and barbed wire was unknown. The enemy constantly sought to smother us with gas, and daily the Negroes spent four or five hours in their masks. "I dislike this mask intensely," remarked Private Casey Jones, the Colonel's cook after telling me about these gas attacks, "but out there I wouldn't have sold it for a million dollars." The Germans "sprinkled shells around most promiscuously," as one youngster put it, during all this period. They were particularly busy with their 77s' using them to snipe at individuals, which is seldom done by artillery. Big-calibre projectiles toru up the areas immediately behind the firing line. One Krupp 280 killed 3 men and thirty-six horses and wounded two men and six horses. I have never heard of a single shell doing so much damage before. On August 7 the regiment captured its first prisoner. The German had leaped at Private George Chapman in the course of a night patrol encounter. George managed to wrest his adversary's rifle from his grip Latest Race News City,State and National. Citizens National Bank Hot Springs, Arkansas CHECKS AND SAVINGS ACCOUNTS INVITED.

The latter was game and a good boxer, so that George had quite a tussle before he could count his opponent out and drag him back a prisoner. Only One Man Missing. The night of August 11 was memorable because it witnessed three raids in the Negroes's sector, one staged by them and two by the Boches. Our boys penetrated a mile or so into the enemy lines, but found nothing for their trouble. The Germans made a prisoner in their second raid, but there is good reason to believe he died from the severe wounds he had received before they could get him back to their trenches. He is the only man the regiment has had to report as missing." Shortly before the negroes were relieved and sent into repose, for the first time since the middle of April there occurred the affray I described in an exclusive cable dispatch to the World on August 22, in which Serg. William Butler distinguished himself by killing four Germans, mortally wounding their officer, putting a dozen others to rout and liberating thereby a white officer and four Negro privates whom the Boches were carrying off into captivity. U. S. FOOD ADMINISTRATION. Washington, D. C. October 21, 1918. To the Negro Press: getting the Food Mess over during the first year of the war was most valuable. The work of the future will not be so difficult because of your effective work in developing a National Food Conscience for the cause of liberty and humanity. Our Government has pledged seventeen and a half million tons of food to the Allies and our soldiers in France. This is five and three-fourths millions tons more than we sent last year and the total amount of our foo dis about the same as last year. This means that we must not waste food. Your readers will do their part when they realize what their war duty is in the matter of food. The success of the food program for the coming year will depend in a large measure upon your work of informing the people what their Government expects of each citizen. The United States Food Administration appreciates and wishes to thank you for they loyal and patriotic manner in which you help make food win the war and it is hoped that your support will be as good in the future as in the past which was all that could be desired. Faithfully yours, U. S. Food Administration. Education Division. Ben S. Allen, Director. Crescent Lodge. SPECIAL NOTICE. All members of Crescent Lodge.

Camp Upton, N. ) October 9, 1918 Dear Mrs. Allen: You see I am a long ways from home but the trip was a delightful one. We had Pullman service all along and your humble servant had the honor of being in the captain's car. I am Captain Stearn's clerk. He is related to the Stearns there. He is a fine old man. So far I am having it fine but I often wish for civilian life again. We travelled in Canada and visited Niagara Falls. We spent one hour there. "The heaven's declare the glory of God and Niagara Falls doth show forth his hand work."

RoscoeLanham The popularity of Roscoe Lanham, the Democratic nominee for Constable, grows daily and the general public becomes more and more impressed with the idea that Roscoe Lanham promises to give one of the best administrations of the Constable's office that Hot Springs to ship has ever known. A clean m clean politics and is conducting his candidacy on the same high plane, on which he expects to serve the people as their next Constable. In the rural district, his supporters are strong as well as in the various city precincts. The public feels assured of a "square deal" with Roscoe Lanham in "the saddle," because he has lived a "square life" in Hot Springs and has made a record for "squareness" during his long residence here. A business man and a man of the people, he is possessed of the elements and attributes which it takes to win and from all indications, he will be the choice of the people on November 5th. BRAD SMITH. Sheriff Brad O. Smith is just as popular with the people right now as he was at the beginning of his term because of the fact that his record has been a splendid one and all will agree that he has conducted affairs of his office in perfect accord with the wishes and best interests of the general public. He has been faithful and fearless in the discharge of his duties and with a clean record to commend his candidacy, he is entitled to the just consideration of every legal voter of Garland county. Mr. Smith has "played no favorite;" he has been a sheriff of all the people, rich and poor, black and white, and that gentlemanly courtesy which is one of his chief characteristics, has always been in evidence and has won the good will of Garland county citizens. In the general election of November 5th, the Brad Smith army is going to be a formidable one and the vote which he will receive bids fair to be commensurate with the good service which he has rendered, for Garland county has enjoyed one of the best administrations in her history under Brad Smith. Now or never is the time for Colored people to ask that many conditions are remedied, especially is this true in cases where industries are under the control of the government which guarantees equal rights to all citizens regardless of race, color or previous condition of servitude. The government now has supervision of the railroads, but the intolerable conditions under which colored people must meet in travel thereon are showing no signs of improvement and in our belief no change is likely to come about soon unless a strong protest is made to Director General McAdoo and made real soon. The Colored Man in the South pays as much to ride on trains as does the white man; he is therefore entitled to the same decency and convenience which surround the latter in travel. It is not a question of equality, but a question of justice and we believe that as citizens of our great country we should seek the justice which is our own. The conveniences or rather lack of them, provided on the trains come into Hot Springs furnish very fair examples of the service rendered, colored passengers in various actions of the South. On the Mo. P. railway trains for instance, one coach is cut up into three compartments. In the front section (or one third, space is provided for hauling baggage. In the middle or second section, a little stuffy, unantibalary space is arranged for the seating or accommodation of Colored passengers. There is only one toilet and this for the use of both women and men. The third section of the coach is given over to white men for a "smoker," and this in addition to regular chair cars provided for them and the women of their race. If Colored men would smoke, they must do so regardless of the feelings of lady passengers or go on the inside of the toilet room to do so. In face of the toilet women as a citizen when it comes to buying Liberty bonds, War Savings Stamps, Blood at the behest of the government and is willingly complying by putting millions of his hard-earned dollars at the disposal of the government and by thousands are following the flag to foreign fields, where many must fall and die under its starry folds, we believe that if we present our case right now, the government will recognize in us this class of "old faithful citizen" and will give to us some of the justice which to the Constitution declares that we are entitled to. There are a number of progressive Colored citizens in Hot Springs; some useful civic organizations and then there are our great churches with great pastors and our beneficial and fraternal organizations, any or all of whom might well take the initiative steps to have these evils corrected and bring justice to our race. We said the time to act is NOW and we hope that some of our earnest ment will consider these things seriously and that we may come together and address an intelligent and forceful appeal to the government for a change of condi- Announcements.
