The delegates were very active in all of the sessions and showed an interest in the work and left with a 'greater zeal for doing greater work for the aMster. The singing was one of the uplifting and reviving things during the meeting. Rev. Knight made a capable and pleasing presiding officer and kept things going lively every minute. Rev.

Everyone was in condition to do justice to the occasion, especially to the best hot rolls that ever came out of an oven and that young crispy fried chicken, with that rich brown gravy.

ADVOCATE FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1920 Lambright Coal Co.'s Big Co-Operative Meeting on July 22 On Thursday evening of next week July 22nd, one of the biggest gatherings from a business standpoint will be held at Pleasant Green Baptist church; Fourth street and Oakland avenue. The Lambright Fuel & Coal Company, a corporation that was launched and incorporated under the laws of Kansas a few months ago by a number of our leading citizens, will hold this meeting. It is being held for the general public and stockholders and at this meeting two or three speakers from the Chamber of Commerce (white) from the Missouri side will speak on the possibilities of this company becoming one of the great enterprises of the Middle West. Other men of business acumen will be present to show the wonderful prospects coming out of this corporation. At this meeting the board of directors will decide as to raising its shares from $5.00 to $25.00 per share. The company has shown since its induction as a corporation great business progress and has continually grown in business and favor with its stockholders, that many have increased their shares. Those who hear these long experienced and successful men will be greatly helped, as well as being encouraged. The company is doing a big daily business. Delegates to the Allen League State convention to Lawrence last week from First Church were Mrs. Lottie D. Hall, Misses Theodosia Hamilton and Alma Griffin. Mr. Trotter Speaks Before Civic League Editor William Monroe Trotter of the Boston Guardian spoke before the Kansas City, Kansas Civic League last Thursday evening to a large number of its members, at their rooms over the Home Drug Company, 1512 North Fifth street. Mr. Trotter is fathering the Equal Rights League, a national organization, of which he is the principal founder. He talked lengthy and exceedingly interesting about the work of the League and what it was doing in propaganda way, to bring about better conditions or understanding between man and man. The League voted to corporate with the National body of the Equal Rights League in any way to advance its cause for humanity. The Civic League is rapidly growing into an organization of power and usefulness to the city, as well as to the good of the race in this city and vicinity. Its regular meetings are held every third Tuesday in each month. Many applications for membership are coming in at each meeting. Rev. J. F. Griffin is its president, and Dr. A. H. Anthony, secretary. Star is Hurting Allen Among Colored People During the days of Governor Henry Allen's campaign and claims to be at the present time, the Kansas City Star has been one of his strong supporters, which it had a perfect right to be but it seems strange it would take the coures it has in vilifying and intimidating the colored voters of Kansas who have been Governor Allen's friends, and it is taken for granted that he still would appreciate their friendliness. But if the Star keeps up its agitation about certain Republicans, not in this city and other prominent men in the state whom the Star says, are "nosing about," that the colored voters might have their right of franchise, so as to be in a position to help their friends, the Star's strangling tactics will bring about an uneasiness to some of the party candidates.

Rev. Moseley of St. Louis is the president and Miss Frazier of Wichita presides over the Women's work. A very large delegation is present, and the meetings are largely attended. The Sunday schools and B. Y. P. U. are growing and had interesting programs, and the churches made fine reports of new buildings, finance, etc. Their programs were instructive and interesting. More may be mentioned later, as we go to press before the finale. Mr. Stevenson, of Knocville, Tenn.; Mrs. Burton of Chanute; Mrs. D. Curtright, of Omaha; A. Adams, of Oskaloosa, Iowa; Mesdames J. Williams and Duncan; Mrs. Thelm Thomas, of Kansas City, Mo., and many other visitors attended Metropolitan Temple Sunday. Mrs. John Parker 935, Washing'on boulevard, has returned from Denver, Colo., after a delightful visit. Rev. Dawson Self of Wier City; Kans., spent a few days in the city Monday. Three Colored Candidates in the Field The voters in the city and Wyandotte county will have an opportunity in the August primaries to vote probably for the first time to cast their vote for three colored men. Two are candidates for the legislature, running in separate districts, and one for marshal of the North City Court. Lawyer Forrest B. Anderson is on the ticket from the Eighth District for State Representative, whose district takes in the First, Second and Third Wards, what is usually called the "Black Belt." He has two opponents on the Republican primary ticket, both white. All three of these gentlemen are good citizens and each one has their friends who are working overtime in this friendly three-cornered contest. They are all citizens and no demarkation of either is being used to win votes, but are asking the electors to support them on their merits. Rev. J. H. Lee of Rosedale, a very popular and intelligent citizen, is a candidate for the legislature from that district and is a man who has many friends among all classes, and he is not asking the people to support him, simply because he happens to be honored with a dark face, but because he is an American citizen and 100 per cent at that. Rev. Lee will draw votes from all races, which should be true in similar cases. It would just be as consistent to say I will support a man if his hair is red or if it is black. The third candidate is for a city office, City Marshal of the North City Court, which only the city elector vote for. This candidate is a man who is known by most every man, woman and child in the city, Mr. Sam Walker. Sam is what some would call an old-timer, a man that has helped build this city and made it what it is, and is now aking the Republicans of this city, of whom he has worked and toiled for many years, for the party's success, and helping the other fellow all these years, and now asks for a place of humbleness in the ranks of the party. All are good men and could fill the bill most acceptably. LORD HATH DONE GREAT THINGS FOR THE RACE Midnight, Our Traveling Correspondent, Meets Many of the Race Leaders Institute, W. Va.—We are going to have Africa brought to our doors, and I am glad to be able o say that I belong to your race and we are getting men and women in our race who are doing like others, and as I sit down and talk to Prof. J. Rupert Jefferson, of Parkersburg, West Virginia, principal of the Sumner high school and grand worthy councellor of the Court of Calanthe for Wes Virginia, I am forced to say the Lord hath done great things for us whereof we are glad. Mr. Jefferson is as full of information as a tick is full of human blood after he has been, on a good fat fellow like Charles Stewart on some other jumbo looking man. He is a man-who has prepared himself for work and he has inspired many boys and girls who are filling positions of honor and trust and some of them in the learned professions. But perhaps you want to know what he has done. He has just read to me about one of the great women of our race, one who is doing what a woman like those of other races have gone out and have seen something and told the world about it. It is genius to look out and see something and tell about it, but I have in mind a woman who is not only going to see it, but she has gone to North Africa to see the people of Sahara in their native activities, and she is going to bring them back to you just as they are in the shape of motion pictures. This is to be done by Mrs. C. E. Mitchell, a cultured young woman, teacher of music at the West Virginia state school. Mrs. Mitchell is the wife of C. E. Michell, the business manager of the Institute, and a man of great parts. She is well trained, and before starting for Europe, she went to New York and took on some extra training in this film business and on her return to American she is going to deliver travalogue lectures, which will be inspiring and helpful to us. This is her third trip to Europe; on this tour she is accompanied by Miss Ola Calhoun, a teacher in the Keystone high school. I am sure that her lectures will be helpful to us all. The world is moving along smoothly as to form and fashion, and people are seeking after knowledge. I am here this week attending the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, of which the man of Georgia, Prof. John W. Davis, is president, and he is indeed a great educator. He has not been here so many years, for he got to this world about February 11, 1888, via Milledgeville, Georgia. He went right in for an education, and I will surprise you when I tell you he went through the public schools of Americus, Ga., then took on some more education at what was then Atlanta Baptist college, and now Morehouse, and it was at Morehouse where he took on his college training, graduating with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. He then took up some work of science at University of Chicago. He was then prepared to enter work. Prof. Davis was called to More- (Concluded on Fourth Page) UAL AND MUSICAL FAST INGRESS AND MID- R FAIR A. M. E.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. DR. "JEFF" W. HAYWARD Dr. J. W. Hayward more popularly known as Jeff Hayward announces himself in this issue of the Advocate as a candidate on the Republican primary ticket for Coroner of Wyandotte County for re-election at the August primary. Dr. Hayward has made an honest and efficient official and is one of the county's most popular physicians. He has given the very best of service to this office and has been honest and fair to all alike. The doctor's friend are by the legion both in the city and county and at his last election led the ticket and if re-nominated August 3rd will in all probability repeat himself. DAVID BUCKLAND David Buckland; County Commissioner from the Third District, announces his candidacy for re-election on the Republican ticket at the coming primary. Mr.Buckland has served the people and county with satisfaction and is asking them for another term. He says if his past record is not a guarantee to return him back to the office it is no fault of his, and he is willing to leave it to the judgment of the voters on August 3rd.. Dave, as he is generally known by his many friends and acquaintances, is a modest, quiet and unassuming man, and makes and holds friends readily. While there are other candidates in the running, Mr. Buckland says he is firmly standing on his record. DR. BEN F. COFFIN Dr. Ben F. Coffin announces his candidacy in this issue, as Coroner for Wyandotte county, subject to the Republican voters at the August primary. Dr. Coffin has been a resident physician of this city for more than twenty years, and has built up a substantial practice. During the Allied wars, he volunteered his service for overseas, but was turned down on a physical examination, which was a great disappointment to the doctor. The doctor claims he has no fear of his nomination. The doctor is a jovial, big-hearted fellow, always in good humor. He has long been a taxpayer and one of the city's boosters, and if he is successful in the primary his election is assured. Mrs. Emma Gaines of Topeka, C. G. P.; Mrs. S. Forbes, of Liacoin, Grand Secretary; Mr. Harold of Omaha, Chief Grand Mentor and seventh grand officers of the Knights of Tabor stopped at Mrs. Marie Wilson's on Everett avenue. Mrs. Drucilla Merr t. after spending several weeks with her granddaughter at St. Joseph, Mo., has returned home. THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH J. F. GRIFFIN, Pastor.

Green, Jr., pastor of our church at Parsons. The sermon was a masterly bit of theology, and was greatly enjoyed by the vast congregation. Rev. Green has rapidly become one of the West's great gospel preachers and is among the best financiers in the Kansas conference. The Sunday school was largely attended and many new scholars were reported. Mrs. Alice Browne, teacher and treasurer of the Sunday school, made an interesting talk of her Eastern trip to Ohio, where her son, Rev. Albert Browne, graduated from Wilberforce University, and also vsiited her brothers in Illinois. Rev. E. J. Patterson filled the pulpit Sunday evening and delivered as usual, a scholarly and practical sermon. The rally which was launched some weeks ago, known as the William Price Memorial rally, was a success and very satisfactory, as it was left entirely to the members on their Christian merits. When they reported in cash something over $2,500 and a number of clubs yet to report. It was done easy and it could as well been twice the amount if the spirit of those who did not give had of been in their church home, but they are members just the same and will not go on record of not doing their part towards helping keep up their house. Those who did not contribute to the cause will have until the first Sunday in August, when all the names of each captain had on their list will be published with the amounts, in the paper. B'g services Sunday. Let every member come out praying. Visitors welcome. THE FIRST HERO Nee.lham Roberts, our first hero in the world's great war, gave an instructive recital of his bravery and of others while in France. He also showed his wounds to the crowd at Metropolitan Temple the night he was there. Those who were not there missed a fine pariotic talk by a Christian soldier. He won much distinction in the Fifteenth New York regiment. We are very proud of him. U CHURCH RALLY There will be a big rally at Third Christian Church, Fifth street and Cleveland avenue, Sunday, July 18th, 1920. at 3 p. m.

A BAZAAR To be given by St. Catherine's Guild and Missionary Society on the lawn of th Church of the Ascension, Third street and Stewart avenue, Kansas City, Kansas, on the evenings of A handsome Bed Set will be given away. THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES A great number of people of our city and some from other cities said, "Come and let us go into the house of he Lord," and they came to this one to worship. At 11 a. m., Pastor Holmes preached a Biblical scholarly and heological sermon. At 8 p. m., he preached a special sermon from Ezekial 36-11. Before the sermon the organist played "Depths of Mercy," and variations as a voluntary, while the Missionary offering was taken; and Deacon Harold of Mt. Zion Baptist church in Omaha, gave the invocation. Mt. Zion church is the church that gave $10,000 at a rally. The pastor also had him make remarks and he talked very intelligently. After the invitations to sinners a large collection was taken; then a second collection was lifted for a gentleman invalid to help on his railroad fare to Denver. The choir sang "Help Somebody Today," which was very appropriate, and the people flocked to the table and this church, which has done such great charity work. Come. "If ye know that He is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousnes sis born of Him." I John 1-29. High Praise for Soap and Water It has been declared by health experts that thorough cleaning with soap and water, fresh air and sunlight, and particularly renovation (repainting and repapering), are more efficient methods of disinfection than is fumigation. It is evident that soap and water, sunshine and fresh air, are indispensable as real disinfectants, whether fumigation is used or not. Soap and water, however, will not be sufficient in one splash or application to remove all means of further infection where there is carelessness with an infectious case. Neither will it atone for all the careless coughing and spitting and careless handling of infectious material during the illness. Nothing is of greater importance, after all, than diligent personal care in keeping down infection. Cleanliness, general cleanliness, with special care of the hands, and cleanliness in regard to the handling and preparation of foods, are the best all around preventative of infectious diseases known. Fumigation may help some, but without the real dirt chasers it serves much the same purpose as does perfume where a bath is needed.—R. N. Whaley. secretary Philadelphia Tuberculosis Committee.

Whistler, the famous artist, once invited Mark Twain to visit his studio to see a new painting he was just finishing. The humorist examined the canvas for some time in silence then said, "I'd do away with that cloud if I were you," and extended his hand carelessly toward one corner of the picture as though about to smudge out the cloud effect. Whistler cried out nervously: "Gad, sir, be careful! Don't you see the paint is still we?" "Oh, that doesn't matter," said Mark. "I've got my gloves on." One of Those Foreigners "Papa," wrote the sweet girl, "I have become infatuated with calisthenics." "Well, daughter," replied the old man, "if your heart's set on him I haven't a word to say; but I always did hope you'd marry and American." In a confidential little talk to a group of medical students an eminent physician took up the extremely important matter of correct diagnosis of the maximum fee. "The best rewards," he said, "come, of course to the established specialist. For instance, I charge $25 a call at the residence, $10 for an office consultation. and $5 for a telephone consultation." "Doc," it asked, "how much do you charge a fellow for passing you on the street?"—Chicago Journal.

It Is based on a definite seizable thing, When Ameries, through her Congress, officially told the Filipino people that they would be granted their independ- / ence as soon as they could establish a stable government, no abstract or ob- scure condition was meant. Stable fovernment, according to American usage, means a certain, definite thing, ‘The Unlted States promised the Cu- bans the same thing, that “when they have established a stable government, then Amencan troops would be with- érawn.”* As soon as the Cuban peopte elected a xovernment suited to them: selves, capable of maintaining order and fulfilling all international obliga. tions, there was a stable government in Cuba, sind Ameriean troops were withdrawn, When Congress passed the Jone: Jaw, It simply Vorrowed the phras: “stable government” from the Cubar history and applied it to the Philip pines.

THE LORD HATH DONE GREAT THINGS FOR RACE (Continued from First Page) house college, where he taught science and was the registrar of the college from 1911-17, when he resigned to become he executive secretary of the Y. M. C. A. in Washington, D. C., which place he held until 1919, when he was called to the presidency of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute. It was last September when he took hold of the work, and believe me when I tell you, honey, wonderful changes have been made, and the eyes of the people of this state have been thrown wide open, and it is proper that they should be. This young man I have in mind has made a new era in education. Just last September he took hold of the school as president at the highest salary ever paid a president of the school, and he convinced them without effort tha he was not a novice in the work of education, but that he knew his stuff. So when he went to the Board at the close of the regular school, with plans they were at once approved, and the teachers commencing with the summer school are getting higher salaries than ever before in the history of the work, and Prof. C. G. Woodson is elected dean at a higher salary than ever paid any one man. He has accepted, and you know it takes cheek and plenty of it to take a man from Howard University, and this is what Prof. John W. Davis has done. He has soem other surpriss in store for the people, but has not made his announcements yet. Get your thinking cap on and see what you can think, what you can hear and what you can see, because seeing must be done. You must know that there is no longer a guess about the summer school but it is here and her to stay, together with other things that must be done. They have enrolled this year 131, and never before did they have over 93, and they are real teachers here getting more information for the children next year. Ther is one little ugly man here dishing out plays for children—something to engage their minds, and I did not know there was so much in play since I have been in the world. I would like to go back to boyhood and get in the games. I have enjoyed being around here so very much until I just feel like I am some educated pumpkins. I have been with men and women of education. They have called me "Professor," and my head is much larger than any pumpkin you have ever seen They had me eat with the instructors and professors, and I had a fine private room with my own bath and fixings. Thank God for all the good things I have seen and experienced. They have been teaching that Red Cross business here and this has been in charge of Miss E. M. Irwin, whose girlhood days were spent in Memphis, and a graduate from LeMoyne Institute, and who is one of the best nurses ever turned out from Freedman hospital and nurse training school. I am proud of her and her work. I do not know just when President John A. Gregg is going to take his seat at Wilberforce University, but it will be some days. He is a good man and I feel will do well there, because he has in him the kind of stuff to make a good president. He has had experience in Jacksonville, Florida. But I must stop writing here, and must soon turn my attention to other matters. God bless you. Let me hear from you some day.
