CONFERENCE After Leaving Kansas City, Our Traveling Correspondent Went to North Missouri Conference and Then—Well, You'll See Next Week Hannibal, Mo.—I have had an Old Aunt Dolly time in Kansas City, but am sorry to note that I am away from there, now, but will have to return one of these days and get some more enjoyment. I shall never forget my visit there, the last day I was in town and enjoyed smelling that good dinner, and how I looked around and met so many people there. God help me to get right and stay right. ing in his physical strength, nothing in his hair or color, but his real weight was in his mind. Mind made a man, and not size or any of those other things God had placed about his beauty. I have made up my mind to go to school and get me some real manhood. I want to go to school soon. Prof. Hodge examined my head and You see thay had a great conference there in that man's town, and the men were elected to go to the general conference. Thy were Revs. J. R. Ransom, J. T. Smith, J. C. C. Owens, W. H. King, and J. F. Griffin. These are all strong men and will do the right things. They are men worthy of election, and I am glad that they will be there. This means that there will be a solid Ransom delegation there in May, and J. C. Caldwell, D.D., will be considered with the rest. I like that young man, and want to see him where he can be of great service to his church and race. Dr. Ransom is considered one of the pioneers in this section of the world, and he lives in the hearts of his people. It is inspiring just to look at him. I want you to pray for me this week, for I want to keep my religion and stay in touch with my Father in Heaven. There was much of interest manifested in the closing of the conference. Sunday was one of the great days, but I will not have time to tell you all I know about that. There was Rev. J. C.C. Owens, one of the foremost men of our race in this country, and a man who has done things. If you do not know him you should take time and get acquainted with him. He is some pumpkins and squash also. I had the pleasure of going to his home while in the city, and meeting one of the finest women it has been my lot to know, Mrs. J. C. C. Owens. She is a woman who is loved by all who have had the pleasure of meeting her. They entertained some of their old friends on Sunday afternoon and while I am not to take up your time about it, I can say I wish you could have been there to have seen some of the good things, and it would have made your mouth just hanker. I had the pleasure of going with a committee from the Conference out to Western University, and heard Dr. J. C. Caldwell make a great big speech, and he impressed me more than at any other time that he should be a bishop and if I had a thousand votes I will give him and Dr. J. R. Ransom all of them and you would see things brought to pass I want to here commend Dr. F. Jesse Pack for the great work he is doing, and I am so glad that he is president of this institution because he is some college president. I looked around and could see the improved condition of things and the large student body, the largest in the history of the school. I recall when Dr. Peck was there a long time ago, and he has returned, but it is a greater school. Thank God for the improvements. He is the right man in the right place. From Western University, I went with that same crowd to Sumner High school, and I got so much inspiration at this institution also. They are some of the singingest people in the country, and there are some educated people connected with the school. To me it was a source of pleasure to meet all of those people, and to hear again Dr. J. C. Caldwell make another big speech. He said something about making a world and then making a man He made man Gods world, and I did not realize so much about a little puny man until I had heard this speech, and I saw myself as I had never seen it before, and I just had to shout a few lines anyway. I was thinking that there, was something wrong with this little frame of mine, and wondered why God had made me so small, but when I heard Dr Caldwell deliver that address, I decided that there was nothing in the physical size of man, noth- Kans Historical Society VOLUME VI. ing in his physical strength, nothing in his hair or color, but his real weight was in his mind. Mind made a man, and not size or any of those other things God had placed about his beauty. I have made up my mind to go to school and get me sqme real manhood. I want to go to school soon. Prof. Hodge examined my head and declared that I had head enough to make me a president, but he could not see just what was in it, and I tried to let him know that I was some pumpkins in the world of thought, and said, "I am an amsterdaterus, reporterailu paperaletum." In this I told him that I was a first-class reporter on The Advocate. I think I just knocked the breath out of this fine educator, for I had spoken out of his reach. He told me to use just plain English, and not some foreign language. He did not overestimate my education, and I did not myself. I made it to St. Louis after going over and seeing Allen Chapel out of debt, and see them put fire to the thing that had made them church people work for the white folks so long. They will no longer have to raise large sums of money only to be placed in the hands of white folks, but they will have a chance to do something for their own church. They will be able to lay aside something. Five years ago God put it into the heart of the bishpo to place at Allen one of the greatest pastors in the A. M. E connection, Rev. W. H. Thomas, who had imbibed the spirit of his father. Dr. Thomas is not any larger than his name, but believe me; he is a brainy little man, and knows his place in the history of his country. There is much speculation as to what will become of him. Of course his people are going to have him lead his conference in the general conference, because he has won the place, and then you will have to look to the Lord and be dismissed for the other part of the world. Off to St Louis, and found that Poro was at work putting things in order, and when we got through with Poro, discovered that they had started to work on their new building. I then looked around just a little bit more, and off for this city, where the Missouri Conference, or at least the North end of it, is in session. This is the one to which Dr. J. C. Caldwell belongs, and they all have it in their hearts that the general conference will give to them this young intellectual giant. I was indeed glad to shake hands with him in his own conference. I must now move along, and say that the conference opened in due time, and they had some great doings there. The mayor of the city delivered an address of welcome, and he was followed by Mrs. B. E. S. Woods, whose work in the church cause the whole church and pastor to select her to welcome the conference in the name of the church. She is the superintendent of the Sunday school of Allen Chapel and has been since the days, well—I am not going to tell you all, but she was elected assistant superintendent in 1877, and served until 1886, when she was promoted to the first place and has held that position ever since. She is one of the best Sunday school and church workers in the country. The people of this part of the country believe in her and she believes in her people. You talk about addresses, believe me when I tell you that she had one of those addresses which count for something and which would move the very soul of man. She inspired Bishop Parks to say some real things as well as other members of the race. The race of which I am proud is proud is producing many bright young people, and I feel to pay my respects to Miss Helen Brooks, who is a musical genius She knows, her music from A to Z. She took her common school branches in Kansas City, Kansas, then got her, finishing touch at Western University, thence CITY ADVOCATE KANSAS CITY, KANSAS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1919. NEW COLORED DRY GOODS STORE The first real dry goods store that has been in Kansas City, Kans., opened last Saturday morning at 1514 North Fifth street, the first room north of the Home Drug Co. It is not merely a hole in the wall or either is it a "Cheap John" establishment. Mr. J. S. Manning, who lately moved with his family from Oklahoma and a real man and a man of means is the proprietor, and if any one does not think he means business, just make a call at his store and see for yourself and be convinced and don't come away without buying something you need. We as a race have been talking and quarreling among ourselves as to why and the necessity of more enterprises among us. Now we have an opportunity to show our sincerity. If Negroes fail to patronize such an institution like this one, it would be folly and a waste of time and money for an enterprise of any kind by our people to establish in our city. But our faith in this new firm is not, that of a mustard seed, or that of the race. The proprietor of this new store was for a number of years one of the leading educators of his state and of late held a responsible position with the government. to Chicago Musical college, where she took on still more education. She is going back this year and take her degree as bachelor of music. I shall say more in my next. Rev. Albert Browne left Tuesday for Wilberforce, where he will finish his last year. The A. M.

About fifty invited guests were present, many being from out of town. Mr. Wayne is a graduate of Ohio State University, and Mrs. Wayne is an undergraduate of Wilberforce University. They were the recipients of many fine presents. Mrs. Dudley Walton visited Mrs. Russell. her sister, on Washington boulevard, and left for Spokane, Wash.

It is generally conceded by the entire connection that he will be elevated in 1920 to the bench of bishops and for the elevation and extension of the church no wiser thing could be done.

CHURCH NEWS The services were largely attended Sunday morning, to hear its new pastor (this conference year) Rev. J. F. Griffin. The members and friends showed their love and appreciation for this great Christian leader and church builder by filling up the auditorium. His sermon was as fresh and invigorating to the souls of men as his first one delivered in this pulpit, some twenty-eight months ago. The congregation and his many friends rejoiced in seeing him standing in the height of his Christian manhood and delivering the message of truth and righteousness. The choir rendered excellent music, as only they are able to do. usic, as only they are able to do. The pastor, in tender words of appreciation, thanked all who in any way helped so nicely take care of the annual conference. Last year, being one of the greatest years of the ingathering of sheckles, why can we not make this year still greater—but for the ingathering of the souls of men. Let us be up and around, doing our Master's work. Parents, don't forget the nursery of the church. Send your children to the Sabbath school. You may regret some day, when it is too late. You slumber late on Sunday mornings. The Allen League, which meets every Sunday evening at 7 o'clock and the work of this organization is to help humanity and especially young people of the race. A large number of the members are attending the Annual Conference at Allen Chapel this week. The doors of First A. M. E. church are open seven days in the week, and strangers are welcome at all times. Worship with us on the Lord's Day. Rev. H. D. Harris, the very successful presiding elder of the Topeka district, filled the pulpit at the evening service to a large and appreciative audience. He preached one of the most practical Christian sermons that has been heard for a long time. It was a great sermon, indeed FEDERAL BAKING SYSTEM. We wish to call our readers' attention to the open view bakery, 522 Minnesota avenue, the most modern and sanitary bakery in the city. You will see at this number a large cylinder glass oven stationed in the window, revolving, baking bread as no other oven can possibly do. This system is the wonder of the age when it comes to baking bread. This system was founded in Frane during the war and has only been operated in this country a short time, but today, along the western coast, one can hardly find a loaf of bread that is not baked in one of these glass ovens. The beauty of this system is, it is perfectly sanitary, including every other department in the shop, and the manager, Mr. H. M. Rollins, especially invites the entire public to come in and inspect the shop. He is only too glad to show them through his sanitary bakery. While it is only a few days since Mr. Rollins opened up this bakery, they are selling thousands of loaves every day, besides rolls of many kinds. Mesdames I. V. Brown, Z. Nelson. L. M. Stovall, C. Taylor and A. T. Hultz are at Emporia this week attending the Baptist state convention. THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE PEOPLES' MERCANTILE CO. A. W.

Delivery Opposite Western University QUNDARO, KANSAS THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES It was an ideal Sabbath and the people joyfully attended church Oct. 5th. It was also the day for Christians to renew their covenant with God. Many talked and set the spiritual fire burning. Pastor Holmes, in his ecclesiastical coat, gave an appropriate and fervent talk and after the offertory administered the Holy Sacrament to the large membership. The beautiful and appropriate hymns, "Alas and Did My Saviour Bleed," and "Did Christ O'er Sinners Weep," were led by the minister, making the ordinance solemn and uplifting. At 7 p. m, Mr, Logan led the B. Y. P. U., Mrs Matthews acted as pianist, and Pastor Holmes gave a fine talk on the lesson. Mesdames Morris and Ruffin also talked. Next Sunday Mr. Nichols will lead on Mark VI :23. At 8 p.m., the pastor preached from I Peter 3:15. Sanctify the Lord God in your hearts and be ready to answer every man that asks you your reason of your hope that in in you, with meekness and fear." Subject, "Christian Hope Accounted for." He said the key is the spirit of God, which gives a safe and blessed dissolution (that is death) and a glorious resurrection. Large collections were given and several joined the church; one a candidate for baptism. The evening audience was larger than the large morning crowd. Some think it is due to God inspiring the publicity committee to print Biblical sayings on the bulletin boards. White judges and passersby and many intelligent colored people just praise her written or printed bulletins. Mrs. Priscilla Thomas, Messrs. James Calhoun and Walter Payne and Lawrence Holmes were announced as sick; but Mr. Charles Bradford is sick; also Mrs. Montgomery, from St. Joe; her husband and Mrs. Shepherd from Colorado Springs were visitors. Come out next Sunday, Oct. 12th and hear good sermons and witness baptizing in the glass baptistry The basement windows have wire netting over them and "handsomest" does not do this church justice. It is the most magnificent, in the latest style in the United States. The Metropolitan Sewing Circle had one of its largest meetings at Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Miller's on Freeman avenue. Vice-President S. Rollins opened the meeting and called on Mrs. Matthews, who gave the greatest prayer known. Mrs. Dinkins acted as secretary Pastor Holmes also gave commendable remarks. They sent their president. Mrs. L. Stovall, to the state convention at Emporia. The hostess served chicken salad, sandwiches and ice cream and cake to the many guests. Next meeting is at Mrs. U. S. Roger's. 316 Everett avenue, Friday at 2:30 p. m. Quite a number of the K. P.'s and the two uniform companies attended the funeral of Past Grand Chancellor J P. Maynard. in Kansas City. Mo., which was held at Second Baptist church. Grand Chancellor Dr. S. H. Thompson, was on the program It was largely attended. DO YOU KNOW? 1.

CITIZENS' FORUM President Hodge opened the Forum with a community song, with Miss Dwiggings at the piano. After quotations, current events were given nicely by Miss Brown, a student at Sumner. Miss Rawland's piano solo was encored. Prof. Gailord's talk on France was loudly applauded. He paid a glowing tribute to France as being a real democracy; where if one behaves he is received equally, no matter what the color of his skin. He paid a glowing tribute to Lieut. T. Harpole, whom he met about fifteen days before his death. Mr Gailord also passed postcard pictures in French, "La Guerre Mondiale," "Apries le Bombardment" Mrs. I. M. Becks of Kansas City, Mo., gave a reading on "Our Soldier Boys," the soldier soldiers. She was so vivacious and eloquent she was encored. The Advocate was spoken of favorably. By a motion, which prevailed, the Forum is to have a special pianist; also the president was empowered to appoint a secretary, and they adopted the Community song book. They are planning on a Ter-Centenary program in this, their 21st year; also to have Dr. Burris Jenkins again. The attention and order was excellent. Next Sunday, Oct. 12th. a fine program will be rendered under the direction of Miss Kealing and Prof. R. Browne. Don't miss it. Mrs. Dwiggins and Miss T. Smothers had charge of the program last Sunday. Come again, Oct. 12th. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD (C.W.F.F.) Rev. J. P. F. Stuckey, pastor, 337 Oakland avenue.
