--- KANSAS TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50. SUPPORT THE G.O.P. WHILE ALL THINGS DONE IN THE CONVENTION DO NOT ACCORD WITH HIS IDEAS, J. O. MIDNIGHT SAYS EVERY RACE MAN SHOULD SUPPORT "EVERY SHOULDER TO THE WHEEL" An Excellent Chance, He Asserts, to Relieve the Present Sick President of His Onerous Duties Chicago, Ill—Will that, long legged fellow from way down in Arkansas go way back and sit down, and remain seated until Senator calls upon him to speak. He just discovered that white skin don't all the time win and Senator Lodge got this in his big thick head for one time, if it never gets there again. I have been to that big National Republican convention, and while I was not pleased with every thing that took place, yet I am going to remain with the party, and I will join with the big men in helping to elect the party and at the same time I want to have a full Republican Congress, and then we will give the Republicans one more chance to do something for humanity, to help the south, and if somebody don't come to the south it is going to butt its own fool brains out, and I will not be responsible for it. In all of the cases with few exceptions there was a lily white issue in the convention, the lily whites were seated and we were left out in the cold, and the lily whites were told to not hold their convention again in places where members of my race were not allowed to attend, and it remains to be seen just how well this will be carried out. Such is life. am not going to tell you about that convention, for it would take a whole paper to do so and then call for some more space. The convention has been held, and we had some men there. I had the pleasure of shaking hands with Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green from New Orleans. He is a man, and believe me that he was a full fledgled delegate and his seat was not contest'd, and he had a hand in saying who should be the next president of the United States. I was real proud to see him there mingling with them other big men. He took care of the situation. The Pythians of America are proud to know that their leader was a delegate and that he had some say in the affairs of the nation. Our friend Lincoln Johnson, was there also, and he was seated and then made a National Committeeman from Georgia, and I want to thank and praise God for his life, and for what he has done for us. It has been a long time since we had a man of our race on that big committee, for it has been considered a white man's job, and believe me, when I tell you that they went down fighting for it, but Johnson had the votes and he carried the day. He will be our representative in the affairs of the party, and I believe he is going to do the best things possible for our people. The National Committee seated Mr. Church, from Memphis, Tenn., but the credentials committee took his frock, and left him out in the cold, and the reason for doing so, I do not understand, except I would say that the rabbit foot of Colonel Roscoe Conkling Simmons did not work, and that brought about a change. I had a great time there. I went to the convention with Editor William H. Steward, of the American Baptist, Louisville, Ky., and Hon. Phil Brown furnished me with tickets so that there would not be any question about me getting into the convention. I am sure uoy will believe me when I tell you there were some people there from all parts of the world. I saw hudneds of people who just walked the streets asking friends to get them in. My first day was with Prof. John W. Davis, of West Virginia, president of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, near Charleston, W. Va. I have told you about this noted educator before this time. He is a man of worth, a man of intelligence and indeed a great educator. If you recall I told you sometime ago that the Morehouse college, of Atlanta, conferred on Prof John W. Davis, the degree of Master of Arts, a place which this young intellectual giant has won and will wear with honors. Prof. Davis has made rapid progress, and he is one of the best college presidents in this country, and you may tell the world that I told you so I am not ptuting it on too heavy when I tell you all this. He was a secretary in the Y. M. C. A. in Washington, D. C., when persuaded to give it up and take hold of the position which he now fills. The men have been nominated and row there will be a heliya time VOLUME VI. THE G. O. P. IN THE CONVENTION DO NOT ISS, J. O. MIDNIGHT SAYS SHOULD SUPPORT R TO THE WHEEL" its, to Relieve the Present Sick Onerous Duties to land them, but this must be done. We must all get together and elect the whole ticket. Harding, president of the United States, and Coolidge, vice-president of the United States. I don't care who is nominated by the demmies, our man must be landed. Roll up your sleeves and go to work, for there is no time to lose. Of course you know I have been going some since I wrote you that other letter, and I am going some more. I have been inspired by the editors to push on to the front. Editor W. T. Andrews, of the Herald, Baltimore, shook hands with me in Chicago and did not feel ashamed to let the people know that he was acquainted with me, and the papers were trying to make a newspaper man out of me, if I would get some rooms rented out. People tell me I have rooms for rent. There were many social functions in Chicago and I went to some of them, because I looked wise and carried my pencil behind my ear, and as I could hear people say as I passed by them, "That is certainly a smart man," I felt more like being somebody I now have the big head, and I am trying to get me a gold lead pencil to go behind my ear. It was a delightful time to be in Lynchburg, make it over to Richmond, and come in touch with some of the big people there and then beat it out to Peaks Turnout, Va., where is located the industrial school for girls—girls who need special attention in order to start them on the right road upwards. But it seems to me that I have told you about this institution, and Mrs Janie Porter Bareet, the wonderful woman who is row at the head of the school, and the white women and women of our race who are working with her in this great work of saving the girls. I stopped a whole day in Cincinnati, as I passed through enroute to this place, and General Joseph L. Jones toted me around in his car, toted me to the Y. M. C. A., and got me one more dinner. He treated me like I was some pumpkins. He is a man among men, and knows how to treat men. I take pleasure in saying this much about him. I went over to Hanover to see the place for boys, and it was an interesting sight. They are doing good work and the boys are as happy as can be. These boys have missed the mark, and heard the command, "Right about face," and he listened for a few minutes, and heard the command, forward march back to civilization. I was glad to obey, and get in touch with big people. While in Chicago, I stopped with Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stewart, and he is such a riding man himself that he did not charge me any board, and I want to take advantage of this opportunity to thank them. It meant something way up the road. To the members of my race, permit me to suggest that you do not ask for favors because you belong to my race, for there are others, and I will show you, before I leave this world. I am going to tell you much in my next. Sometimes I see in dreams, my dear, A cottage in the lane; Sometimes I see a mansion in the town; Sometimes I see a palace, dear, That for your sake. I'll gain, And in them all I claim you for my own. The cottage stands a barren dream Without you by my side; Without you, dear, the mansion ships away; But with you, dear, the palace gates Shall one day open wide— Could you but whisper words I'd have you say. For dreaming, though but seeming, Bids the heart to hope and live; Sweet balm it pours in wounds which ever bled— And should, perchance, reality Its blessing freely give, We conquer fate, wherever she may lead!

SENATOR WARR Is the Seventh Son of the Buckeye Honor Thrust Up Another one, and the seventh of Ohio's sons was sselected as the Republican standard bearer for the highest office in the gift of American citizens on last Saturday at Chicago. It was found, after a number of ballots were taken, it was only time wasted and Kansas decided to change the current and cast their entire voting force for the first time to Warren G Harding, United States senator of Ohio. Missouri fell into line next and on the. 10th ballot everybody tried to get on the band wagon, even from the isles of the sea. Kansas is always doing something. The last thing she did without having to keep a memorandum book was in 1916, when they voted to "Keep us out of war" and the next will be in November, when it will redeem itself by 50,000 for the country's Republican nominee, Warren G. Harding. The choice of the Ohio senator was a most satisfactory one to the party leaders, after their first choice had gone its full strength. The running mate of the nominee, Governor Coolidge, of Massachusetts, ARGENTINE, KANSAS. The District Conference and Sunday School Convention of the Topeka district closed a very successful three days' session Friday evening. Each day's program was of much interest to the delegates and visitors present. Splendid papers on church topics were produced and discussed from many charges for the district of while two are found in this issue of The Advocate. The various charges showed considerable progress in all their departments, financially, as well as spiritually as many souls were reported to the church for the quarter. The Sunday School department showed activity of greater work having been done in this district and plans were being laid for greater work among the youth of the race. Presiding Elder H. D. Harris, who is serving his third year, and whose success has been above par, urged in words of Christian force and kindness to his district to hold up Christ as their standard at all times and all places. The pastor of the local church, Rev. R. S. Everett, who has been a great success and blessing to this church and people, was with his people and the community highly complimented and given through a resolution a vote of thanks for the royal entertainment and hospitality of the homes. AS DID IT! AKS THE DEALOCK ON THE COMPS UNDER THE WIRE ON THE TENTH RREN G. HARDING keye State to Have This Great t Upon Him was acceptably satisfactory from every quarter. MARION DEMOCRATS TO Marion, Ohio, June 15. To make Marion county as nearly unanimous for Senator Warren G. Harding, Republican nominee for president, as possible, steps were taken today for the formation of a county "Harding for President Club," following the appointment of an executive committee by D. R. Crissinger, Democrat and local banker. The executive committee, composed of three Democrats and four Republicans, is to outline a general program and appoint sub-committees: The Caledonia band, of which Senator Harding was a boyhood member, is to be reorganized. The organization will be ready for the home-coming of Senator Harding, and, in the event of his election, expects to lead the inauguration day parade. BEATRICE, NEBR. The Omaha District Conference and Sunday School Convention of the Kansas Conference, held at the St. James A. M. E. church Omahn, Neb, Wednesday and Thursday, June 9 and 10, was one of the best ever held in the district. Rev. A. C. Terrell, D.D., Atchison, Kansas, is the presiding elder of this district and is due much credit for the success of the session as well as Rev. Wm. Tyler and his splendid people who entertained the conference and convention. All the delegates with the exception of a few, answered to roll call during the first day's session. Because of the high cost of living and the pressing need of the pastors in their parishes the P. E. asked that we finish the sessions in two days, which was heartily approved of by the ministers and delegates. They fell in line and worked like trojans from 8:30 a. m. to 5:30 p. m., closing out in excellent manner at the allotted time, thereby breaking all previous records.

While the weather was quite warm Sunday, a large audience attended the morning service, many having to go in the gallery. With the seven electric fans running worshippers found it much more comfortable than in many of their homes. Rev. J. S. Payne, the newly appointed Presiding Elder, delivered the message which was spiritual and practical. His large, attentive hearers were greatly revived by his excellent sermon. The Rev. Payne is known as a spiritual gospel minister. A number joined the church at the close of the morning service. At 3 p. m., Communion services were held, Rev. R. S. Everett, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. church, Argentine, preaching. It was appropriate and effective. A number of visiting ministers of the two cities were present and a number of their communicants. The Presiding Elder preached at the closing service of the day, when another nice audience rejoiced in another fine message. When others connected themselves with the church. The day was a large and jovous one in the name of the blessed Master. The choir, with Prof Wise, director, rendered excellent music all day. The Sunday school was well attended and upwards of 300 are on the roll. The Quarterly Conference was held Monday evening, when a good representative membership were present and heard excellent sports for the quarter from every department of the church. The Presiding Elder was greatly pleased with the spiritual and financial condition of the church. The District Conference will be held June 29-30 at Weir City, Kansas.

Jesus says, "Let your light shine," and they claim there is no harm in doing so. They say they are only doing these things to have a little fun, forgetting Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, the life." I would like to know what kind of church we would have if we all did these things. Can they show me, through His Word where Jesus ever took his disciples to a card table or a dance. Still they claim there is no harm. Jesus said: "Come you out from among the world; be ye no more entangled with the yoke of the devil." The young so-called Christians and some of the old ones will take part in dancing and card playing and they too will say there isn't any harm to have a little fun and will say the Lord will forgive them instead of taking a decided stand for Christ and instead of putting the candle under a bush raise it up right for God. We that are living the life are scorned by the so-called young Christians of today when we tell them that Jesus says: "I am the way, the truth, the life," when Jesus says so. Religion never was the desire to make our pleasure less; and another thing, Christ says "take away the foxes that so easily destroys the vines," are not they little no harm things?

SCIENTIFIC MEDICIAN All Work Guaranteed Kassel Jewelry Co. 548 Minnesota Ave. Kansas City Kansas Conquered Her own story of her remarkable deliverance. New Jersey Chemist offers generous supply of the wonderful remedy free. No wonder Mrs. Jackson is anxious to have the whole world know what Dr. Kline's Epileptic Remedy did for her. Doctors tried and failed to help her. Fifteen convulsions in three hours is a terrific experience. But Mrs. Jackson is well now. Read how it all happened: About six years ago I was taken with convulsions. I had fifteen convulsions in about three hours. I had two doctors with me and they worked for some time. then I was sent to the hospital and there I lay the weeks before I knew what was. I stayed at the hospital for four weeks. Then my husband took me home. Every year after that I would have several attacks of convulsions. A little over two years ago when I was 14 my friend told me of Dr. Kline's Epileptic Remedy. I was anxious to try anything as I was troubled so severely. I got one bottle and took it and it made me feel a little better, so my husband said to continue in my life. I also felt better in my life. This letter will help anybody that has that kind of trouble. I hope they will take your Epileptic Remedy, as I believe it will cure them as it has cured me. Yours very truly. (Signed) Mrs. W. G.

J. METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES A large congregation assembled at 11 a. m., to devote their time in listening to God's Word. The visiting minister, Rev. J. W. Anthony, proached a sermon which some enjoyed. Pastor Holmes was out of the city preaching a Masonic annual sermon in Salina. He has more invitations to preach lodge sermons and other sermons than any other minister in Kansas. At 8 p. m. the visiting minister preached again and the officers gave him a donation. Next Sunday, June 20, the pastor will baptize and the rally will be started at 11 a.m. The secretaries have notified many who were not reached in the permanent church clubs. The officers and pastor wish to pay off all indebtedness. Although this church is nearer out of debt than any in the city, they wish to pay that off soon as possible. Members and friends are asked to come out and help. Those who attend 5 o'clock prayer meeting on Sunday say they have glorious times. Mescames D. A. Holmes, . L. Eskridge, Z. Nelson and Miss G. Howard were delegates to the Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. board meeting at Topeka. Come to this church next Sunday, June 20. ALLEN CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH QUINDARO Rev. M. C. Knight, Pastor Children's day was observed at cur church all day Sunday. The little Sunday school folk were on time and were full of interest and enthusiasm. Our pastor delivered a special message to children Sunday morning. Subject, "Idolatry." Text, 1 John 5:21. "Little Children Keep Yourselves from Idols." Time and again with telling effect with both children and parents he drove home the thought of watchfulness against the idols of today that are besetting the Christian family and especially the young. The pith of his argument was against Self-Idol, following closely with pleasure Iddl and Dress-Idol. his was indeed a helpful message to all who heard it. The children rendered an excellent program at 8 p.m. Much credit is due the tireless efforts of Mrs. Knight in preparing the little folk for this excellent showing. The bass violin played by Prof. Kennedy was the marked feature of the program, as well as the vocal solo by baby Mildred Hoyse. This baby is a singing wonder. The pastor, superintendent and teachers of the Sunday school are pressing their membership drive during the summer season. They solicit your sympathy and co-operation. Next Sunday, June 20, will lbe Missionary day at our church. Mrs. W. H. Prince, wife of Rev. H. M. Prince, presiding elder of the Southwest Missouri Conference, residing in Kansas City, Mo., will deliver an address on "Missions" in the A. M. E. church" following our pastor's missionary message Sunday morning. Mrs. Prince is a deep, fluent, philosophical speaker. Everyone should hear her, especially the women of our church. Mrs. Ona B. Wilson, Kansas City, Mo., oratress, and Prof. Gregg will be the chief speakers at the evening service. Don't miss any of these services for you will regret it. We begin on time. All are welcome.

SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS ORPHANS' HOME TO START BIG DRIVE SUNDAY Starting Sunday with the church's of the city, a 14-day drive will be launched in a financial rally for our Colored Children's Orphan home, at the corner of Washington boulevard and Ninth street. This charitable institution has long been in need of repairs, or a new building would be better. This home is ours and every colored citizen in the city, with any humanitarian in them ought to feel honored in having an opportunity to give a few dollars a year to he'p sustain an organization of this character. The present planned drive set forth is a splendid one and every home and citizen should not even think of refusing anyone calling on them. The management is going to issue certificates of one dollar each, with a duplicate, running in serial numbers, so when you pay a dollar or as many dollars as you like, you have the original certificate showing you are a part or member of this institution and your name, address and amount is turned in to the secretary of the board. Mr. William Boone, who has been selected as manager of the drive, has stepped out the entire city and a captain appointed for each voting precinct. This captain will have workers enough to cover the precinct in the allotted time assigned them, making every home and soliciting every person in their territory for at least one dollar. This campaign ought to bring in enough money to put the Home in excellent shape and make a decent place for those who are less fortunate than we. Th state board governing orphans' homes has requested that the board of directors of this home will have to comply with the state law governing the same or otherwise, action will have to be taken by the state authorities. Now is there the humblest person in the city who would like to see this stain upon the race, when a small pittance of one dollar will prevent it? No, there can not be one in our community. The board of directors was exceedingly fortunate in securing the ser- Big Co vices of such a manager as Mr. Boone, who is well known in every precinct in the city, and does not know what failure is, and The Advocate feels sure this drive will be a pleasant and profitable one. The officers and board of directors are made up of our very best citizens and who have worked hard, and made many sacrifices to keep the Home going. They are as follows: Charles Slaughter, president; Mrs. Laura S. Aams, secretary; Rev. J. F. Griffin, treasurer; Mrs. Alice Day, C. Simpson, Z. Jones and Mrs Height; Miss E. Z. Pendleton, chairman finance committee, and Miss Beulah Burke, Rev. N. B. Robinson, Mr. W. M. Boone. THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD (C.W.F.F.) (337 Oakland Avenue. Rev. J. A. Cook, Pastor) On last Sunday, June 13, the weather was beautiful although it was very warm. But nevertheless the Sunday school was excellent and a beautiful lesson was rendered. On June 6, the superintendent requested that each adult give 50 cents and each child 25 cents. On last Sunday quite a few came up with the said amount; over $18 was taken up. This money will be for the Sunday school picnic, June 19 at Swope Park. Plenty refreshments will be served free to all the entire school. A car also will be chartered. The morning sermon was preached by Elder John Ghaston. He said many/good things. After the sermon was over an invitation was extended to all umbelievers to come forth and unite on the Word. Don't forget baptizing will be Sunday evening about 2 p.m. at Elevnth treet and Washington boulevard. Also next Sunday night the Lord's Supper and feet washing will be had. All are welcome at any time. The Bibl bard was fine and everything was carried out lovely. The Bible band convenes every Sunday evening at 6 p.m. Elder J. H. Lee of 520 Tangent street, Rosedale, Kansas, preached the leading sermon Sunday night, and Elder Farr followe dhim. Both did excellently well and said many sweet things. A good collection was lifted and all went home rejoicing after hearing two noble good sermons. Remember all are ever welcome at the Church of God. Last Monday at 2:15 p. m., S'ster Josephine Bockman Clay's funeral was preached at the Church of God, by Elder J. H. Lee. Other ministers also had something to say. This sister was a missionary and has been in this church more than twelve years. The whole church sure misses her. Her funeral was well attended by her relatives and friends and loved ones. Don't forget to attend service at this church at your leisure time. Sunday School, 10:00 a. m. Divnie Service, 11:15; Bible Band, 6 p. m. Nxt Sunday night after preaching Mr. W. H. Lambright is requested to make an important speech. All that are interested come out and hear what he has got to say. Mrs. Owens, who came here from Hutchinson, Kansas, a little more than two years ago, returned to her former home Monday to live. The people here regretted very much to see her leave, and especially the members of First A. M. E. church, of which she was highly esteemed for loyalty and Christian womanhood. Her many friends at her old home will receive her with open arms. Miss Francis Dodds of Columbus, Ky., is visiting her brother and family, 422 Freeman avenue. Miss Dodds had not seen her brother for twenty years. It was a happy meeting. THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE DO YOU KNOW that Wm. G.
