Grand Chancellor of Kansas, Grand Worthy Councellor and the Brigadier General of this state, and the visiting Sir Knights of Kansas and Missouri.

CONVENTION KANSAS CITY, KANSAS, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1920 CITY KANSAS CITY, KANSAS, FRIDA A LARGE CROWD WITNESSED W.U. COMMENCEMENT The twenty-sixth annual commencement of Western University, closed last Thursday, June 3, with many congratulations to its president, Dr. F. Jesse Peck and his coworkers. Diplomas were presented to thirty-five young men and women by Bishop H. Blanton Parks, the presiding bishop of this, the First Episcopal district, also chairman of the State Board of Trustees and the same board of the university. This class was considered to be among the best that has been turned out of this well and widely known school. The commencement address was delivered by that matchless divine and thinker of his race, Dr. J. F. Griffin, pastor of First A. M. E. church, Kansas City, Kansas. His subject was "The New Education." It was full to the brim with thought, logic and philosophy, and was delivered with great emphasis and force. Among the graduates this year were three from Douglass Hospital. The baccalureate sermon was preached Sunday, May 30th, by Rev. J. B. St. Felix Isaacs, pastor of Allen Chapel. The enrollment this year was 450, which nearly doubled any previous year. Since the standard of the school has been raised more applications have bee received for admittance than could be accommodated and President Peck stated to the trustee board there were enough applications already in for next year to fill all the dormitories. The university board of trustees decided at their meeting to erect another building this year and do some other constructive work on the grounds. About all of the old faculty were re-elected for another year. The trustee boards were well satisfied with this year's work, and highly complimented the president on his year's work. The boards met Tuesday and finished their work Thursday morning, Bishop Parks presiding. G. R. Bridgeforth, principal of Topeka Industrial Institute, attended Western University commencement. business!!

M. thing Co. Opposite Muehlbach Hotel ADVOCATE SOUTHERNERS LEAN TO "LILY WHITE" TACTICS Chicago, Ill.—As I take my seat at the table with pen in hand and ink and paper on the table to write you a few lines this week to inform you of my health, and to let you know that tings are happening and I am in the big city of Chicago. I am reminded that people have died in this city this month who never died before and will never die again this side of the grave. I am sure that you know the big convention is on as I write to you, and my people have had a hellava time before the National committee, and it seems that in every case the lily whites won, and the lily black had to take a back seat, or in other words they had to go way back and sit down. But the time is on now when you read this letter that spellbinders will go over the country wanting us to come forward and pat in a ballot, and perhaps we will have to do so, for "To whom shall we go?" Out of all evils, I suppose we will have to stick to the party, for we hope to get from it perhaps better treatment than from anyone else. Damfino what to do, but I am putting this matter straight up to the Lord for direction, for He knows that I want to do the right thing, and I am sure the Lord will direct me if I put myself wholly in his hands. I know blood is thicker than water and it is hard for white folks to decide on its merits when the question is between members of the two races for he is going to his own every time. I saw this done in the Virginia case, in the Texas case, and several others. I sat with the committee, hence I know whereof I speak. But this is not the time for all that, I will wait and see which man is nominated and this I will talk to you about in my next letter if only to mention his name. You see, I am in big Chicago, and I am stopping with my private secretary, hence it is not surprising to you, if I should use a few straight sentences according to the rule of grammar, for she is some English scholar and knows how to spell everything spellable and mine is spellable. I am improving, but before I can get my lessons good and straight I will have to be away from here, and the Lord will tell you from what point I will write my next letter, but I think it will be way down in Georgia. Just a few words about Chicago, and then I am going back to some other places I have been and tell you about some of the things I have seen, and you will have to shake hands with me, and say I am one more seeing baby I am going to advocate people cutting out slang and get down to good English. I could not keep from saying amen when I went to church Sunday afternoon, and heard a program under the auspices of the Poro agents in Chicago. They have an organization here 600 strong, and they turned out at Quinn chapel to have a special sermon preached unto them, and this was done by the Rev. H. E. Stewart. They are a fine set, believe me honey, and they show prosperity, and the fact that they have the kind of goods which call for prosperity, which call for success. Mrs. Malone knew what she was about when she invented this new kingdom, and I am real proud of her and her husband. They rendered an interesting program which consisted of papers read by representatives of Poro, solos by Poro agents, and talks by President Aaron E. Malone, of the Poro college, Charles Stewart, who was introduced as the Poro baby, and Cary B. Lewis, of the Defender, Mrs. C. B. Lewis, the wife of her husband, and others, and when they had finished Dr. H. E. Stewart preached a Poro sermon, and it was just in place. The reading of scripture lesson was by Mrs. Annie C. Holmes, who read that passage where it says "I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord," or something like that. She said it was fitting that it should be read, and expressed the sentiments of the Poro agents who had assembled for the first sermon. In her address, Mrs. Annie M. Malone told how she enjoyed the service, and said "All that we have, all that we hope to have, we owe it to God, and we never start upon our work at Poro college until we have thanked God, hence we have chapel services every morning at Poro." She is a Christian woman and give her devotion and service to God as the basis of her success in life. Miss Hallie Q. Brown, the wonder of the age, the intellectual wizard of the race, delivered an address. She had a good speech. This ended the program and Monday night they The People's Mercantile Company graduated from the college. I had the pleasure of spending Sunday with Mrs. Elvie L. Stewart, who had just ended 19 years of married life, and has started on the 20th year, and I wish them success May they live long, and make something out of their son. I have been riding some since I wrote to you before this letter. I think I sent my last letter from—I don't know where, but it was in the United States of America, and then I beat it to this place. That is to say I went to Johnson City, Tenn., COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS MADE BY KELLY MILLER Lynchburg, Va., June 1.—'Manhood," was the theme of an address delivered before thirty-six graduates this evening at the commencement of the Virginia Theological Seminary and College, an institution under the Virginia Baptist State convention located in this city. Fully two thousand people crowded in the chapel to hear the address, and there were many turned away. "All galeat moral movements in the history of mankind tend to emphasize the fundamental importance of manhood," said Mr. Miller, "and the old aristocratic idea laid stress upon the dignity, honor and glory of a few selected men and reduced the great mass of mankind to the level of hewers of wood and drawers of water. The democratic idea as contrasted with the aristocratic insist upon the development of manly qualities on the part of all the children of men. "The institution of slavery placed all manly virtues in the possession of the white race and suppressed the Negro below the plane of noble instincts and qualities. It was perfectly logical under this conception that the black man should be exploited for the honor and glory of his white lord and master; but under the new democratic conception, every man is supposed to develop and exercise the best powers within him for the innoblement of his own nature. Man is the greatest thing in the world. He is the crowning effort of creative energy. All of the forces of the universe ultimate in him. The lowest man in the world is worth more than all the world beside him. The chief aim of education is to emphasize on the recipient the potentiality, the dignity, even the divinity of manhood. "If through the process of education we can inculcate this idea into the minds of the Negro youth, our problem would be well on the way to solution, and we need not concern ourselves so much with prgrams of racial solution. Principles are more than programs and without principles programs are useless. The race or individual that believes in itself will solve its problems, but if one is uncertain as to his inherent claims of manhood, his problems will be impossible of solution. All freedom first exists in the state of the mind. Frederick Douglass was lib- NUMSER 45. ROSEDALE, KANS., COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES HAD Friday evening, June 4th, Rosedale High school auditorium and balcony were packed to their capacity the occasion being the commencement exercises of Attucks school. There were more interest manifested among the parents and the general public at these annual exercises than ever in the history of the school. Opened with invocation by Rev. Lee, following the school choMiss Cora Hannon, directress. There were four graduates, one boy and three girls. Burke. Melvien Thomas was the first speaker, who took for his subject, "Usefulness." Corine Annie Byrd came next using as a subject, "True Meaning of Mancipation." Alma May Locke took for her subject a popular one of the times, "Woman Suffrage." The last speaker was Nina Mary Blanks, who spoke on the "Signs of the Time." Each one of these young people put up a good argument and delivered them quite well. The principal address to the class was delivered by Rev. J. F. Griffin, of First A. M. E. Church, Kansas City, Kansas. His subject was "The New Education." The speaker's thought, logic, with that force of oratory, soon reached the hearts and souls of his healers. It was greatly enjoyed by the vast audience. The diplomas were presented by Supt. A. P. Vaughan and commended these young people in making their way toward a higher mark in the field of service and usefulness. The chorus, with duets and quartets, the latter the class song, "Leaving the Nest," were very entertaining and beautifully rendered. Prof. R. H. Brown, who has been principal of this school six years, is a fixture in Rosedale, so far as the Board of Education and patrons are concerned. He has done great work at this school and is loved by all. He has a most efficient corps of teachers; they are Misses Cora Hannon, Thelma Kennedy and Edith Robinson. The Board of Education and their families with other friends attended the program. erated the moment he read the Columbia Orator, which inspired in him freedom of mind. The removal of the shackles from his body was only an incident." People were here from all parts of the state to witness the commencement service. Dr. S. T. Eldridge, of Petersburg, preached the baccalaureate sermon Sunday morning, and at the unveiling of a monument erected in honor of the late Gregory W. Hayes, the first president, Dr. W. T. Hall, of Philadelphia, made the principal address. Dr. R. C. Woods also spoke. Dr. J. T. King, president of the state convention, delivered an address.

DORSEY GREEN, Attorney for Plaintiff. (First publication June 11, 1920) THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES June the 6th, 1920, the first Sunday in the month, was an enjoyable one at this church. The large congregation enjoyed Pastor Holmes' talks at 11 a.m., and at its close when he asked sinners to accept the Plan of Salvation, one man announced himself as a convert. An ordained preacher from Omhaa, united under watchcare, and several others joined. Many talked in Covenant previous to the pastor's talk and many who did not talk, have their daily walks to testify for them. The pastor had Mrs. Goings of Kansas City, Mo., to introduce Mrs. Cowden. who is soliciting funds for a college at Memphis, Teenn. She talked well. At 8 p.m., the congregation reassembled after the sermon and collection, the Lord's Supper was taken by many of the members. It was sacred and impressive. The ordinary collection was over $92. Next Sunday, June 13th, two eminent preachers will preach; come out and hear them. On Sunday, June 20th, about twelve more of the 42 candidates will be baptized and a rally to pay off all indebtedness will be had. The pastor has instructed the four secretaries to notify many who are not in special auxiliaries and all to bring or send $5 each. The corresponding secretary does most of the printed and written advertising; also acts during the absence of the other clerks and the leader and members ought to be proud of her work. She leaves the rest with God when some speak or act unkindly. Don't forget to come to this church June 13th and 20th. Come here with all your sorrow, And with God trust your fate; Don't put off till tomorrow A NOBLE WOAN PASSES When the news reached the ears last Sunday afternoon about 2 p.m. that Mrs. Jennie Jackson, the wife of Mr H. M. Jackson, 345 Armstrong avenue, had died, no greater shock could have come to this family's many friends. While Mrs. Jarkson had not been so well for some time her condition was not thought to be serious she being up and spoke that morning of coming to church. Mrs. Jackson was 67 years old, and had been a devoted member of the A. M. E. church for 50 years, and was, at the time of her death one of First A. M. E. church's substantial communicants, and was always found doing her duty to every obligation of her church. She lived a kind and gentle Christian life and was loved by all who formed her acquaintance. She leaves a devoted husband and father, a daughter, Gertrude, of the home, and one son, Frel, who is married and lives in Omaha, Nebu. The funeral was held from the house Wednesday at 2 p. m., Rev. J. F. Griffin, her pastor, officiating. The church choir furnished the music. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. Resolutions were read from Class No. 12, and the Trustee Helpers, of which she was a member. PUBLICATION NOTICE In the District Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas. Ruth J.

Doctors and medicine did me no good. It seemed that I was beyond all hope of relief, when at last I secured a preparation that cured me sound and well. Over ten years have passed and the attacks have not returned. I wish everyone who suffers from this terrible disease would write to L. Lepso, 194 Island Averie, Milwaukee, Wis., and ask for a bottle of the same kind of medicine which he gave me. He has generously promised to send it prepaid, free to anyone who writes him." - Adv.

Cook. Pastor) Last Sunday was a very pleasant day and I truly can say that all services were carried out nicely at the Church of God. The Sunday school is very progressive and each scholar is improving very nicely. The superintendent and the teachers are at their posts every Sunday and are doing all they can to carry the Sunday school to victory. The morning service was preached by Elder Farr; the assistant pastor. He said many wonderful things. After the preaching was over a nice collection was taken up. Rev. Wright a Christian or Campbellite minister, was present. He came forth and made an excellent talk and said quite a few encouraging words. Elder Wright is ever welcome to be with us again at any time; also any other minister, regardless of denomination. The Bible Band was excellent last Sunday evening at 6 p.m. A fine lesson was produced. Sister Brant rendered an organ solo and it was just fine. Also Elder J. P. F. Stuckey came forth and explained the foundation of the Bible Band and the fundamental principles also. He made an excellent talk. Come out and see what this band is doing. You are welcome. At night the assistant pastor requested a speaking meeting and it was just fine. Many brave soldiers spoke and testified; afterward Elder Stucqey preached a short sermon. The Deacon came forth and lifted a nice sum for one of the sick members, Sister Brockman Clay, who has been sick two months or more at 1216 Independence avenue. The rest of the sick are doing well.

Hayes, the first president of the Virginia Theological Seminary and college. It was a fine affair and held in connection with the commencement of the school. It made my soul rejoice to see them educated people and how they were doing to help my people. At the head of the school is President R. C. Woods, D.D., and to my way of thinking he is a philosopher, and I don't mind telling the world those good things about him, and I am sure he don't mind me telling you. He is doing something and the man who is doing things don't mind you talking about it. I was delighted to have the pleasure of looking into his face and talking with him. He is a friend of mine. I had also the pleasure of touching Dr. T. J. King, president of the Baptist State convention of Virginia, and those people come within a few dollars of putting $24,000 on the table for education at the convention held in Staunton a few days ago, and they are going to put more than that on the table the next time. From there I beat it to Richmond, Va., and from there on over to Peak's Turnout, Virginia, where I was made to know and to feel that our women are doing something in their organizations, especially our women in Virginia. The Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Club, with Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, president, is doing a work which is pleasing to God Himself, I am sure.

But believe me we had to make the first step and do something more than talk, before the white women threw away all race prejudice, and joined hands. In the work the best white woman of Virginia joined, and they were headed by a most remarkable women, Mrs. Henry Lane Schmelz, of Hampton—she is a woman of influence as well as wealth, and she was made chairman of the board of trustees, and her vice-president is a woman of wealth and influence, Mrs. W. S. McNeil, of Richmond, and the secretary is our own Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, and the treasurer is a white man of wealth, Frank W. Darling, and I failed to tell you that his wife is the second vice-president. These women, together with a number of others whose names I will mention, because I think you would like to know them.

These are of both races, and I have not separated them and they would not have it so, for they are showing to the world that the two races can work together without getting hurt, or without the color of one rubbing off on the other, and they are doing a good work for the girls of my race. I did not intend to use so much time and space, but I have not told PHONE FAIRFAX 1923 you the half yet. I beat it over to Hanover, the school of our boys and I will have to tell you about it in my next letter. I got me a bed car and rode to Cincinnati, met General Joseph L.
