NSAS TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50. LYNCHBURG, VA., CLAIMS OUR J. O. ALL THIS WEEK Lynchburg, Va.—Now you see where I am as I take my pen in hand to write you a few lines to inform you of my health, but I have moved so fast for the past few days that I could not keep up with myself. Such is a world like this, and yet I am not moving as fast as the world is moving. It was just yesterday, so to speak, when I dipped my pen in ink in Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and passed through Kentucky, West Virginia and landed right here in Virginia. This thing coming in touch with big people, people who are doing things is an inspiration to any man. While in Kansas City, I had the pleasure of getting to the home of Dr. Griffin, the pastor of the First African Methodist Episcopal church, met the editor of this paper, and his companion, called on Mr. and Mrs. St. Clair, shook hands with Principal Hodge of the Sumner High school, saw Mail Toter Davis, at a distance, but had not the pleasure of going to his house, and talking with the Grand Worthy Counsellor, the Supreme Worthy Lecturer, Lady Elk, Mrs. Norcene Davis, and shook old Kansas City dust from my half-soled shoes, and beat it over to Kansas City, Mo., making it to the city of Chicago and from there I sent you a few lines. Chicago continues to keep up its reputation as a windy city and I shook hands with a few of the wind-jammers there, and they were as usual busy dishing out hot air to the people. They are the ITS in the town, and if I had time I would just tell you a few things. I beat it to Cincinnati, headed for this place, but that old iron horse got late, hence I had to remain in town all day, and leave at night. Hence I made right to the building where is located the Central Regalia Company, Joseph L. Jones, president and manager; Lawyer W. B. Bush, one of the best in the country, the Journal, and Will Anderson, the printer. It was manners to meet all of these big people in town: Of course you are acquainted with some of them, if not all, for Joseph L. Jones was for some years at the head of the Order of Calanthe, the female branch of the Knights of Pythias, but retired in Atlantic City, N. J. He says he disappeared for the purpose of reappearing again. I talked with Lawyer Bush, and found that he was some busy-lawyer and then got in that automobile of Mr. Jones, and he toted me over to the Y. M. C. A., where I got lunch and turned my attention to a ride through the city, seeing more of Cincinnati than I have ever seen since I have been in this world. I had the pleasure of seeing the lovely home of Mr. Jones, and met his queen there in. She was cordial in her reception, and invited me to come again when her husband was at home SUMNER NIGHT SCHOOL IS NOW OVERCROWDED The night school, at Sumner High has so rapidly increased with pupils in the last week, that the Board of Education had to open up Douglass graded school building, just west in the same block, to accommodate the new enrollment of scholars. Prof. J. P. King, the night school principal, has brought things to pass in the night school and we predict, through his efficiency of management, a greater extension of the work. but informed me that no man was permitted to light in that house when her husband was out of the city. I returned to the office of Lawyer Bush, had some dogs with him and a young lawyer who is not ripe enough to pick yet, but if he keeps up he is going to make it. Then to the stable, where I applied to the office for got me a bed car, for Richmond, Va. I assure you that there was no question asked, when I put in my face, but the young man told me that he had only upper beds, and I agreed to get one of them things, and do the best I could to use it. So, I reported to the reporter, who showed me the place where I was to occupy, and pretty soon a man was escorted in by the red cap reporter, who said to him. "This is section one." The man had a lot of bats or something in a bag. I was told that he wa sa golf player. I don't know what that is, but I do "now when he saw me he turned around and went out. Held a conference with the cordoctor and pretty soon them bats were moved to another wagon, and I got the lower bed instead of the upper. I rode from Cincinnati to Richmond-Va. without speaking to anyone. I could eat and sleep because my private secretary had provided me with a box lunch and it was some eating believe me honey. Now I am in Lynchburg the guest of President R. C. Woods of the Theological Seminary and college, and one of the leading educators in the country. In this school they have about 600 young people who are struggling to get some education, and back of school is the Virginia Baptist State Convention, Dr. T. J. King, president. I shall tell you about it later. Now then comes the other matter about which I must write. I am here attending two big meetings, the Negro Organization Society, and the State Teachers Association, and believe me, both of them' go for a while and a long while at that. The Negro Organization Society, which is an organization of organizations, having for its motto better schools, better health, better homes and better farms was founded by Dr. Robert R. Moten, principal of Tuskogee Institute, and is now the honorary president of the organization. It is a monument, for it is doing things. They conduct in CITY first A. M. E.

This part of the church is not new to Dr. Barksdale, as he was for a number of years over a district in Missouri conference. Rev. J. F. Griffin, Mrs. Griffin and their two nieces, Mrs. Gates and Mrs. Banks, who are visiting them from Arkansas. visited Dr Montes and family at Leavenworth Tuesday, he being a relative of the family.

Lok up your receipts, subscribers, and see how far you are past due for The Advocate. We can not afford to carry you, as some seem to think we can, so we kindly ask you to remit your renewal at once. We believe you will.—Editor. this state a clean up campaign every year under the direction of this organization, and in addition to this, they just make things happen. During the summer months they go through the rural districts, and talk to the people on health and other essentials. The president of this organization is Major Allen Washington, commandant of the Hampton Institute, and direct successor to Dr. Moton when he was called up onto take up the work of the late Booker T. Washington. I don't know when I have seen so many educated men and women together, and of both races. The white people seem deeply interested in th work which this society is doing as well as our own people. This is one place where they feel they can answer their own prayer, "Help us to help each other, Lord: Each others burdens bear." They are doing the things which will mean better feeling between the races, and it is through the organization they hope to reach the heart of the better class, and the other class, too, of white people and have that objectionable law repeated, which separates me from other passengers, and attempts to stamp on me and mine the badge of inferiority. But I am not to talk about that now, and you will not tell any one that I told you this. Of course Dr. Moton came up to see how this babe was getting along, and found it was full grown, and keeping house. He came all the way from Tuskegee and delivered the closing address, and you will believe me when I tell you that it was a clean cut, common sense speech, full of pep and good things. Dr. Moton is a man who is intensely interested in his people. He is as sound as a gold twenty-dollar piece on the race question, if we have such a question, and we have it. He is striving to secure for his people every right and privilege which belongs to them under the law or otherwise. He is conservative in going about this and not radical, and often people try to place him in a wrong light. This is what they tried to do to Dr. Booker T. Washington, but when time, work and sacrifice had sent him to his eternal rest, they gathered around his open grave and praised God for his life. Dr. Moton must continue to work, take all the vituperation, but do his duty, fearing not God or man, and some day the whole world will acknowledge his worth. He is president of the National Negro Business League, and this is within itself an inspiration. He accepted of the place last August, and his first meeting will be in Philadelphia. We hope to make it the greatest meeting in the history of the organization. I shall have more to say, about it from time to time. Prof. D. G. Jacox, of Norfolk, is president of the State Teachers' Association. I shall talk about him in another letter. I think I have said enough for this time. A letter will reach me care Arkansas Baptist College, Little Rock. That will be my ADVOCATE The First Baptist Sewing Circle met with Mrs. M. Austin and Mrs. Hattie Washington Thursday night. THOS.

The Missouri school has a strong and well balanced team this year. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD. (C.W.F.F.) On last Sunday morning at 10:30 a. m. Supt. J. T.

"We are expecting you." Mrs. Willa, Dwiggins, President, Kansas City, Kansas. Mrs. W. W. Caldwell, Corresponding Secretary, 2432 Vine street, Kansas City, Mo. Prof. Jos L. Bowler, chairman Executive Committee, 2413 Goode avenue, St. Louis, Mo. Dear Member: Three centuries—three hundred terrible but expressive years pregnant with the striving of a repressed people—have spent themselves. Therefore it is particularly important that at this point we should pause, reflect, and survey by detailed inquiry the long drear past. For is not an idealized past a refuge and solace of the spirit? Our group, above all, must not lose consciousness of those sacred values which are born with tradition. Some notion, more or less clear and explicit, of our contribution to society, crossed and blurred most assuredly by an ignorant depreciation of our people, is needed as an anchorage for our faith. We live, we struggle, and we fight, but men revile us, because they are blinded by the passion of hate. Baseless charges of every description founded on an imperfect knowledge of us and an inability to perceive our deeper qualities must give place to the unyielding persistence of the type of men who make up the Inter-State Literary Association. Our Association convenes at the St. Paul A. M. E. church, Wichita, Kansas, December 29, 30, 31. We hope to make this session the grandest and largest meeting of our existence, for this is our Tercentennial Celebration. Is this not worthy of your support? Share with us the joys and responsibilities of this venerable institution. The following are the subjects to be used for our celebration—for your papers or addresses. 1. Advent of Negro. 2. Slavery; Its Sorrows—lesson good or bad. 4. War Revolutions. 3. First Reconstruction; Its Advantages; was franchise a mistake? 5. Second Reconstruction: New Vision of Race. 6. Future; Challenge. The executive committee has planned many innovations. A special essay contest will be held, and a prize of $5.00 is offered for the best paper (limit 1000 words) on "Effects of Slavery on the American Colored Man." Manuscripts must be in the hands of the Secretary not later than December 15. Prizes will be offered, as usual, for original music, Declamation, Poetry and Oratory. The presidents of the Race Colleges in the Missouri Valley will be present and address the meeting Rules: Literary Societies, Art Clubs, Church Choirs and other upfift organizations are eligible for representation. Representation consists of three members and three alternates from each society, which may have one number on the program. Papers will be limited to ten minutes. Program numbers should be in the hands of the corresponding secretary by December Ist. Fees: Societies representing in 1917 will pay the usual fee of $1.00; new societies, $1.50.

CHURCH NEWS The services were largely attended at all the services Sunday and many had to go to the gallery. The pastor, Rev. J. F. Griffin, was the messenger, and his wonderful message brought the audience to a life of Christian understanding. The revival meetings have been going on this week with spiritual success, and sinners have been redeemed. Those who have absented themselves from these meetings are minus of many blessings. Come tonight and see the power of the Saviour. A well filled house was present Sunday evening, when Dr. Griffin preached a wonderful sermon. Several joined the church and six adults wer baptized at the close of the morning service. Rev. H. L. Bolden and his church are co-operating with Dr. Griffin and his sermons have been of great spiritual power. Rev. J. D. Barksdale, our new presiding elder, was present at the 11 o'clock service. He started this week out on his district. Sunday will be a great day at First A. M. E., the pastor filling his pulpit with a special sermon. Come to the house of God, and hear the word of salvation. Sinners are especially invited. You are going to die. You haven't, got long to stay here. Where do you expect to spend eternity? Rev. Griffin introduced his two nieces, Mrs. Gates and Mrs. Banks, from Arkansas, to the congregation at the morning service, and Mrs. Gates responded with a beautiful talk. Christians, what of the night? Sinners, the sun will soon go down on you for the last time. The day is close at hand and your sins are still with you. Many every day is saying, "Too late, too late!" Prof. G. A.

After the invocation by Deacon Johnson, the choir sang sweetly the beautiful song, by a colored author, "I'm on Business for My King." Then Dr. Holmes, though indisposed, arose to preach the promised sermon, "The Soul and the Spirit." He quoted the text Gen. 2:7, "And the Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground, and breathed int ch's nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul; also Pvor. 20:27, "The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord searching all the inward parts." He said in part, "It is useless to try to define the human soul. As Paul said, "It is mysterious and beyond the comprehension of man." Every act of thinking is the ego and non-ego. The thinking subject is called in the Bib'e, the soul." In the old and new testament soul and spirit are used symononymously. Angels are spirits, alone. We know our souls came from God. In Bible times some believed in trasmigration of the soul, but that was cleared up by Christ in one of His miracles. Fundamentally, there is no difference; but that the soul gives account to God, was exemplified by the pastor in telling of Lazarous and the rich man. He closed by exhorting all as living souls to prepare and be ready for God's kingdom. He also testified that his soul is anchored in Christ. The great audience enjoyed this very deep intelligent sermon. He also led the audience in the hymn, "My Soul Be on Thy Guard." At 8 p. m., the pastor was present but feeling much worse and Rev. Alva Royston preached good sermon. Pastor Holmes opened the doors of the church and some united. The large audience gave large collections. Next Sunday, November 23rd, if no hindering Providence, our leader will preach another deep evangelistic and theological sermon. Come and hear him. Come and join us.

THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE That is to say; if we do not amass our force and power as units of the Civil Community, along all the lines which I have been treating in this series of appeals;—we will find, when it is too late to change conditions, that we will be acted upon, at all times,—but never ourselves, doing much at acting upon others. That we will at all times and places be used;—but never able to do much at using others. And you thnik I have been dealing out this "Twaddle" all this time, and it amount to nothing. Well—you read the remarks of Sir Arthur Shirley Benn, M. P.; of England, at the John Jay dinner at the Meulebach, November 8, 1919, which was a meeting of delegates from the leading white races of the world; assembled on the most important cause in the world;—Trade and Reconstruction. And hear him when he says, "We Allies are all Caucasian, and are in the minority in the world, we as white men, must stick together, or civilization may come to an end and be a thing of the past. We must fight together and reconstruct together, the countries which have been devastated." Read,—Read,—and read closely, and catch the "Strain" my all-wise Negro friend. Read,—and learn something from somebody, if you will not, from nobody. * PITTSBURG, KANSAS. Our pastor was returned to us from the conference. And he lined up the church, and we got in line. And on the 31st day of October, at 9:55 we burned the mortgage of our church, and we have been happy ever since. We wish to return thanks to all persons who stood by us in the drive; also to Dr. B. F. Watson and the church extension board for their liberal donations. The Sunday school has raised the mortgage they had so the church is clear of debt in every department. The Lord has been with us thus far. We feel that the Rev. Wilson is a great preacher and leader. This is a business town and is growing every day. He preaches the Gospel of the Son of God. He has an excellent wife, who is a wonderful worker in the Sunday school. Mr. Ed. Graham is the superintendent; Miss V. M. Jackson is the assistant superintendent. The Sunday school is fine. Our motto is "Do more for Christ and suffering humanity." The Kansas State Teachers Association had their annual meeting here last week, and it was grand. We will say more in the next writing.

We arrived here on Monday, September 28, and began our second year's work. The members and friends of Mt Olive A. M. E. church received us cordially. We have been on the job five weeks and success has been ours. There has been seven accessions to the church, and we have succeeded in raising the last dollar on the mortgage debt, and God willing, we'll have a mortgage-burning Wednesday, November 19. There has been a long standing debt against Mt. Olive church for a number of years—50 years. But under God, the people have rallied and worked together and now victory is ours. We have a most beautiful church. Brick, with a large basement and large auditorium with a seating capacity of about 500. The location is as good as any in the Kansas conference. The membership is 118. A fine class of young people who love their church. We are loking forward to a great revival. The members' and friends are jubilant over the great success financially. Only five weeks' work and $246.00 raised and seven additions to the church, and all out of debt. Pray for us. Yours for Complete Victory, C. A. WOODS, Pastor 312 West Sixth street.

After the usual opening, good current events were given by Miss Lewis. Judge Bradley and Mr. Anderson also gave events. The violin solo by Miss Anderson was so excellent she was encored and played the Rosary. She is fine with that instrument and brings out pathos and mirth like some artists. The main feature of the program was the address on Christian Personality by Dr. Fred M. Bailey, pastor of Washington Boulevard Methodist church. 'Twas really the second great sermon at the Temple that day. Some of the many Christian things he said were: "He only lives best, who lives close to Christ." There is such a thing as color. Some only want to be intellectual, which is an achievement. But Paul says "to be a Christian is not an achievement but a gift of God." No matter how fine your education and qualifications, you are nothing without Christ.' He also extended the invitation to young men to accept Christ. 'Twas really a fervent sermon instead of an address and all should take heed to his advice. He is fine as Dr. B. Jenkins or any other fine colored or white preacher. He received great applause, and the publicity committee shook his hand and congratulated him. President Hodge and Prof. King, the critic, and all were highly pleased with his beautiful discourse. Prof. Gregg arranged the program. Next Sunday, November 23, at 4 p. m., the Boy Scouts will have a big day. Mr. Alden and Mr. Peterson will be present anil the High school orchestra and boys will give a cannon salute and show many interesting things. Be sure to come or you will miss it again. C. A.
