TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50. Held Sunday at 2 P. M. at First A. M. E. Church—Large The Sixth Annual Thanksgiving service of the Independent Order of Brothers and Sisters of Consolation were held Sunday at 2 p. m. at First A. M. E. Church. A very large turnout of the two sexes attended, with the men giving a fine street parade, lead by Kansas City Kansas Union Band. The ladies met them with bare heads adorned with white with bare heads encircled with white silk bows, and with open ranks marched in the church where they had special seats. An excellent program was rendered by members of the order. After which the Master of Ceremonies, Officer S. L. Vaughn, introduced Rev. L. G. Green of the Baptist Church, 3rd and Minnesota, who delivered the sermon. The members claim it was the best sermon is the sixth annual sermon that has been preached on an occasion of this kind. The members nearly filled all the lower auditorium and the second auditorium was well filled with visitors. Prominent Women Entertained. When it became known that Mrs. Major Moore, Sr., of Lincoln, Neb., older sister of Mrs. M. C. Matthews, was here, many friends sent invitations to 925 Washington Boulevard. The first responded to was 6 o'clock dinner at Mrs. Geo. W. McClelland's; on Thursday Mr. and Mrs. Major, Jr., of Kansas City, Mo., sent a taxi after them to come to supper; Friday they were invited to three dinners and Saturday to breakfast in Kansas City, Mo. Between times gentlemen served them at cafes. On Sunday Dr. and Mrs. enkins took Mesdames Moore, Matthews, Abbington and daughter, of Clarksville, Mo., and another gentleman in his $3100 limousine, to the convention, over the boulevards to Turner and to his nice home in Argentine. Mrs. Moore greatly enjoyed her visit here, while attending Taborian G. L., and her sister is trying to get her to come here to live. She left Tuesday evening for her home, not being able to respond to all the invitations to dinners, etc. She likes K. C. K. PUBLIC ASKED TO GIVE VEGE TABLES TO ORPHANS HOME The Children's Orphan Home could use any kind of vegetables, and any one who feels they could spare them, either leaves them at the Home Ninth street and Washington boulevard, or phone Fairfax 2681, or stop N. B. Robinson's laundry wagon. It will be greatly appreciated by the management. BOARD OF DIRECTORS. Mrs. Hazel of Galesburg, Ill., is visiting her cousin, Mrs. Brown, 332 Greeley avenue.

HOLLAND, BELGIUM, GERMANY AND FRANCE 130 PERFORMANCES IN LONDON, ALONE POPULAR PRICES VOLUME VI. Turnout WESTERN BAPTIST CONVENTION WAS A GREAT SUCCESS The Western Baptist Convention was a success to the end. One of the many fine programs was Friday night, when Dr. L. K. Williams of Chicago preached. He was introduced by his title, truly the greatest preacher in the world. One minister said as he preaches to 9,000 now, he ought to build a tabernacle, like Dr. Spurgeon, and preach to 20,000. He preached on Paul's true tenacity to God's Gospel. It was spiritual, historical, and caused the Holy Spirit to be getting manifest in the large congregation. He also spoke incidentally of some mistreatment of our race, and said "That some of the so called learned Caucasians did not really know what 'social equality' is; said 'twas hard to keep some of them away from our women." He praised all true hearted Christians of any race. At the beginning and close he received ovations of applause and "mens." Sunday afternoon a Mass Meeting was held and an African young man and Dr. Bass of Tennessee were the principal speakers. Rev. Bacote's choir sang nicely. Mrs. Bacote presided at the large pipe organ. Dr. Bass talked very fine and said "We must not turn against the good white people of this country. "In a way some of the Caucasians in the United States are our best friends." Said England tried to take Liberia from our people and the United States sent a ship just in time to save our republic." Says some of those countries have about taken all of Africa, our land, away from our natives. Sunday night was the grand finale of the convention. Dr. Mosely, the fine president, preached, and the vast audience gave the parting hand until the meet next year at Omaha, in 1921. Thousands of dollars were raised for missions, education, etc. The churches are multiplying in God's name. BIG DISCOUNT AT BATHURST STOVE COMPANY The Bathurst Stove Company, one of the largest of its kind in the city, has had a big season's trade, especially from their refrigerator department. The company bought heavy in these goods a year ago, when they were purchased at a much lower cost than the same goods purchased a few months later. At this time—and they won't last long at the price, as they only have a few on hand—they are selling refrigerators and ice boxes from 35 to 40 per cent below the regular selling price. While the season is advancing the factory prices are going up for next year's trade. Remember the Bathurst Stove Company buy all their goods direct from the factory, no jobbers or middlemen come between for a part of the profit which the customer becomes the sole beneficiary. Mr. Wm. Fisher is manager and is conceded to be one of the most genteel business man on the Avenue. The store is located at 514 Minnesota Avenue. Mrs. Martha Scott-Johnson and grandchildren, and Mrs. Ruth Rogers of Mexico, Mo., visited relatives here enroute to Utah and the coast. CITY KANSAS CITY, KANSAS, The rally of Third Christian church was a success over $100 in cash and $100 pledged. We thank the public very must—J. D. SMITH, Pastor.

COLORED PEOPLE FIGHTING GATES The colored people are fighting hard against the re-nomination of Grant Gates, who is out for re-election on the Republican ticket for Register of Deeds. It is said he pledged his word and honor at the last election, he would put a representative of the race in his office and failed, to keep his word. It has been conceded that no Republican can be elected in Wyandotte county when the colored vote is against him. It is being used against Mr. Gates that he said he could be elected without the colored vote, and therefore keep his office manned as heretofore. Mr. Gates is running for the third term, employing some six or eight clerks. MISSOURI K. P.

Terrill, was with us Sunday, July 18th, held my Quarterly meeting at Sabetha in the morning with good attendance and good reports, financially and spiritually. Then we came to Horton and held our quarterly at night, with a great crowd, who enjoyed a great sermon. He used these words: This do in remembrance of Me.—St. Luke 22-19. It was a wonderful message, after which the Lord's Supper was administered, in the midst of a spiritual wave. Thus we closed our fourth and last quarterly meeting., with the best report of any this year. We are beginning work on our basement at Sabetha this week, which we expect to complete before Conference. Our subscription rally will end at Horton Sunday, August 1st with a big basket dinner.

Next Attraction: Rube Foster's Chicago American Giants. July 31, Aug.1-2-3-4-5 JOHN A. EDWARDS EUREKA, KANS. Republican Candidate for Untied States Senator Practical Farmer, Stockman and Business Man, one who will work and vote for the business interests of Kansas. Both United States Senators from Kansas live in Topeka; neither represents the working, producing and property interests of the state. Senator Curtis, my opponent, is running again—on his record as an office-holder. He has represented Kansas for more than a quarter of a century at Washington. He is not the author or sponsor of any law that has protected Kansas from the sugar, lumber, steel or twine trusts, nor from the packer, nor the profiteer. We have been open prey. A war price was fixed on the wheat and pork of the Kansas farmer, while cotton, sugar, shoes and packing house products went wild with the war because they had representation in Congress. Kansans received in lieu of high prices, government reports and garden seed. We have tight money, worthless foreign exchange, no world's peace and wrecked commerce because Congress has continuously and aimlessly investigated itself, voted appropriations an ddiscussed the League of Nations. Living costs have soared, profiteers have multiplied and Congress has debated military training. Congress now adjourns that politics may be transferred from Washington to the country. Vote for John A. Edwards, a man who will vote for you. There are no personal differences between me and my friends and Senator Capper. He has rendered in his way unusual and commendable personal service. He has answered letters and secured "postoffices" buildings. He has served long and faithfully, the Indians on the Indian Affairs Committee. He has sent out regularly and very often very good garden seed. But we who own land and raise cattle and hogs and wheat and grain should have representation. We want protection from manipulation and monopoly and senseless appropriations and national extravagance. I am paying my own expenses in this campaign. There are no corporations or promises behind me. If I go, I will be neither bound nor gagged. I need your help and your vote. I feel that a vote for me will be a vote for yourself. I hope that you will help. I won't disappoint you. Yours very truly, JOHN A. EDWARDS. Miss Panola Brown of Hot Springs, Ark., sister of Mr. R. B. Brown, one of our popular barbers, is visiting her brother and family, 1906 North Hallock avenue. Miss Brown taught domestic science in Baton Rouge Institute, La, also found her somewhat improved, of Mr. Palace Banks and his wife and baby of San Antonio, Texas, are visiting Mr. Banks' parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Banks, 2034 North Hallock street. Mrs. A. J. Bouldin visited her parents, Rev. and Mrs. Parker, the week end at Paxico, Kansas, and brought her little niece home with her. Mr. Thomas White, father of Harry C. White, 318 Greeley avenue, left for Lynchburg, Va., his home. He has been there for more than a year. Mrs. Chas.

Friday was a gala day, with a high outing at Heathwood Park. Early in the morning hundreds of the order, including many gaily dressed drill teams of women and men, gathered at First A. M. E. church, corner of Eighth street and Nebraska avenue, where the sessions were held, to form the parade for the march to the park. The Merchants band was on hand to lead the procession. At 11 o'clock the parade formed on Nebraska avenue and Eight street, with the drill teams of men and ladies leading, with Grand Officers in autos and scores of other machines following, filled with members of the order. Following them was the juvenile department, in a dozen or more trucks. The band lead the procession direct to Heathwood park, where dinner was served. The band entertained the large assemblage with plenty of good music, and a good social time was had until 7 o'clock, when they retired to the Y. M. C. A. hall, at Minnesota avenue and Eighth street, where a prize contest drill was put on between teams from Omaha, Topeka, this city and other places. Kansas City's drill teams pulled down both cash prizes and received both loving cups. Rebecca drill team, Lena Downs commanding, took the $75 cash prize and retains the loving cup for another year, and the Palestine Guards, Captain Hunt commanding, received first prize, $75 and holds the loving cup until the next session. Next annual meeting will be held in Iola, Kansas. Every visitor went away feeling it was good to be here. The citizens of Kansas City, Kansas, will welcome them back at any time. The local committee and friends worked incessantly to make it pleasant for all while here. On Wednesday evening at Metropolitan Temple, the ladies band drew a large crowd and led the order in the procession to the Temple to hear the speaker, Rev. White. The daily collections amounted to over $100, which the local Y., W. C. A. was donated the greater part. DR. WM. ROLLAND PALMER Dr. William Rolland Palmer, a prominent and successful physician of this city for more than twenty-three years, announces himself in this issue as a candidate, subject to the Republican primary, August the 3rd, for the office of Coroner of Wyandotte County. Dr. Palmer needs no introduction to the voters of this city and county. He saw two years' service in the great world war, and was overseas fourteen months and served as surgeon in the 526th Engineer Corps, colored, and when asked his preference, he preferred to be with colored organization. Dr. Palmer is the only candidate for this office on any ticket, that saw service home or abroad. The doctor is a good campaigner and makes friends readily wherever he goes. He has a nice practice in the city and county, and with this and his record of being a staunch party advocate, it will take an extraordinary man to beat him. Mrs. Washington, 633 Parallel avenue, died Sunday morning at her home. She was very prominent in church and lodge circles. The family have the sympathy of The Advocate.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. ADVICE TO THE WRONG FELLOW. "If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, churches had been chapels and poor men's cottages princes' palaces." Shakespeare's maxim is as good today as when first heard upon the stage. An eminent contemporary daily recently in an editorial captioned, "Stirring up race, hatred," undertakes to advise Negroes to endure atrocities without complaint. If they defend themselves at all they "may at least reason with the wrongdoer, or peacefully remind him of the injustice." What chance has unarmed reason with hat in hand against the rope and bullets, the stake and fire in the hands of the protected mob. The Saviour of mankdin had no motion of making the "right cheek turners" examples of perpetual motion. However, Negroes have excelled all other peoples of modern times in turning the right cheek. Simultaneously with the great Mr. Washingtonton's efforts along this line, the ballot was wrenched from the hand of the Negro and he was thrust into the jim-crow car, though made to pay first class fare. The Negro's protests were so feeble that many white men pretended to believe that the Negro enjoyed jim-crowing. Our administration tried that right turning business with the kaiser, and the American people would have no cheeks to turn, had not the black boys looked the kaiser's trouss in the eye. Homeopathic medicine is of inestimable value, but when blood poisoning sets in the surgeon's knife is used. We hold no brief for Dr. Du Bois, indeed we do not always agree with him, yet when it is said: "It is just as likely, too, that Dr. Du Dois is giving expression to personal feelings in the matter, as that he is speaking for a race," we feel that his side is entitled to as an impartial a hearing as the author of "the Beast" or "the Birth of a Natiton." Especially since conditions exist and persist that produce such a book, and since a real friend of the Negro, the editor of the New York Independent, in addressing the graduates of Wilberforce U. last June, according to the Christian Recorder, quoted editorially by the Negro World, July 10. 1920, pronounces himself thus:—"My dear young friends: I have no particular advice to give you. * * * But you must not look to the white race to give you any particular advantages. The white race, I am sorry to say, is not generous enough to do it. * * * It is to be your power of organization and your consistent, dogged determination to accomplish something that shall be your salvation. There are some white people, like myself, who wish you well but who can do THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH J. F. GRIFFIN, Pastor.

Albert Browne one of our young gospel preachers, who graduated in June from Wilberforce Seminary, in Ohio, delivered a strong spiritual sermon which was greatly enjoyed by his hearers. Rev. Browne is an intelligent and scholarly pulpit preacher and his future is bright for a great man in the service of the Lord. Rev. Alex Jones, the assistant pastor in charge, delivered the message at the evening service. Dr. Jones is a young man, but has a broad mind of intellectual force. Several connected themselves with this branch of God's church. Th Sabbath School was up to ias standard and the lesson was interesting and many helpful points were brought out by the discussion of teachers and pupils. Dr. Griffin is away on business for the church, being appointed on the Committee at the last General Conference on the revision of the discipline, which went into session Tuesday at Philadelphia. He will return as soon as the committee finishes their work. If the pastor has not gotten back by Sunday the pulpit will be filled most acceptably by some Christian minister. Come out and please the Master. The choir sang nicely Sunday, that is, those who were pleasant The Junior Choir out numbered the old choir at both services Sunday. Strangers and visitors are ever welcome at First Church. The rally will close the first Sunday, in August. but little except to stand on the side lines and encourage you as you trample up for yourselves." We are not by any means encouraging Negro uprisings; for that would do neither the Negro nor the country any good. We feel, though, in the East St Louis riot's success and outcome encouraged some whites to start the Washington and the Chicago riots. Had these gone utterly against the Negro, even the most generous and humane whites could have found no safe place anywhere in the United States for the Negro to enjoy life and the pursuits of happiness. Th eeditor made a flying trip to the Capital City and called to see Mrs. J. R. Ransom, who has been so very sick for several months, but found her somewha improved, of which we were delighted to find. Her devoted husband, Rev. J. R. Ransom, was right at his wife's bedside. Prof. G. A. Gregg, the associate editor of The Advocate, has returned after spending ten days in the summer school of the Y. M. C. A., held at Harper's Ferry, W. Va. The professor also visited Washington, D.C., and Chicago on his return home. GROCERY FOR SALE A good paying grocery store for sale. Fine location for a paying business.

THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES The church advertiser has written invitations of welcome on the bulletin boards to visitors to the Baptist convention and at 11:00 a.m. a large congregation gathered and heard Rev. Butler from Wichita preach from Gen. 19:26, about "Lot's wife looking back and turning to a pillar of salt." He is one of the best ministers of this denomination and preached one of the best sermons that Metropolitan has heard for months. Is also intelligent and very popular in the convention. Many visitors were present, among them Mrs. Lulu B. Moore of Lincoln, older sister of the writer, whom Pastor Holmes announced was better looking than the writer which pleased the writer very much—as she cares nothing for earthly looks—but told him "her soul would be as beautiful as any in heaven, as God is no respector of persons, and has prospered her with the best health and talents to praise Him while on earth. At 8 p.m. Rev. Bates of Iowa preached a powerful sermon to those who were present, and a large collection was taken. Come next Sunday to this church, whose members have built up following their present leader, a church which proved to be a pattern and incentive for others to remodel and build new churches. "Love your enemies," bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you"—Matt. vi:44. Mrs. M. C. MATTHEWS, writer. The K. C. Star Incites Race Hatred Sunday's Kansas City Star says in its editorial column that the colored people of the United States are going in with the Japs, the Chinese and other foreign races, with the intention of taking the United States. The Labor Bulletin office has printed the Kansas side colored paper for a long time, and occasionally prints one published on the Missouri side. Anything like what the colored people are charged with by the Star is unknown to any of the colored citizens connected with the papers, or their associates and advertisers, who frequent The Bulletin office on business connected with the publications. Colored union men know nothing of the scheme charged to their race by the Star. The fact of the matter is that three colored men are candidates for local offices at the coming elections. It goes without saying that such men as look to the Star for support—Governor Allen and many of the local politicians—will knife these colored candidates when it comes to the elections. From the Star's standpoint the colored voters are all right, if they merely vote and let the politicians get the offices. As a sop to the colored people, a few of their race are given minor offices. The colored candidates are the strongest Republican candidates in the field. Such a canard as the race preparing to help the Japanese is published merely to eliminate the colored candidates. The only thing at which The Bulletin expresses surprise is that the colored voter will go to the polls and vote for the men the Star supports!—Labor Bulletin, July 21. Mr. and Mrs. James B. Brown and Delvert Brown, their son-in-law, and Mrs. Harriett Horton, and Mrs. Josephine Welton, and Mrs. Vera Staton and Mr. and Mrs. James Radford, and Mrs. Rosie Baker, were all delegates from Wichita, Kansas, and were guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Rhodes, 1607 North Eighth street, while here attending the Daughters of Tabernacle session last week. Mrs. George Scotts of Des Moines, Iowa, is here visiting her brother, Mr. J. R. Rhodes, 1607 North Eighth street. 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. The churches of the two cities and friends cordially invited. Preaching by Rev. McDuff, of Lawrence, Kansas. J. D. SMITH, Pastor. The Russian government has refused the request of England to make peace with Poland, and will continue fighting. The Polish losses in the past few weeks have been great and they seem to be no match for the fellows from the north. Many of the Polish people are, said to favor an alliance with Russia.

LILLY WHITE CANDIDATES . It is said that we have two or three candidates on the republican primary ticket who are running on a "Lily White" platform this year, pure and simple. These men were elected two years ago with a pledge in their campaign that they would appoint colored deputies, but after their election refused to do so and stated finally in their way that they did not propose to have any Negro working under them, but now they are coming back to the colored voter again. No colored voter that respects and wants to see his race respected and have the chance of an American citizen could conscientiously support such men. One of them is other a city office, both for re-election. Again, through their old time deceptions are asking for their support. Two of these "Lilly Whites" have opposition in the primary, and their opponents are good honest simon pure republicans, and if any colored voter would be guilty or even any white voter who believes in justice, right and fair play, could not support men whose sentiment is the same as Alabama, Georgia, or any of those states where such is practiced. Let the voter and especially the colored voter kill this eating cancer Vote for Cecil Vallake for Register of Deeds. Look for his name or the Republican ballot.

As she paced up and down the walk, she was anxiously gazing into the face of every passer by. Some looked careless, some looked harsh, nearly all seemed indifferent to her wants. Suddenly the face of the little one brightened, and running up to an elderly man of commanding presence whom she saw approaching, she said: "Please sir, you will help me across, won't you?" That man was one of the proudest of England's peers, one whom his country had delighted to honor, who had held many posts of trust and responsibility, and whose name is known and respected in every civilized country on the globe, and yet, some time after the happening, while speaking to a party of his distinguished friends, he recalled the incident of the crossing and said: "That little girl's instant trust and implicit faith in me was the highest compliment I have ever been paid." The child recognized a character in which she could place her trust. The man appreciated the tribute her trust implied. Character is formed by action and by a man's character may be judged the deeds of his lifetime. As each day closes, the events of that day in each man's life is recorded in the pages of his character, and much of that interesting history is to be read upon the courtenance. Just as the powerful acids employed in art eat their way into the hard steel, and thus bring out the effect desired by the skilled mechanic who directs their labors, so the acts of a man's life chisel their impress upon his face. If lust greed and selfishness are his ruling passions, such is the form the unseen worker engraves upon this profile; if darker yet be his thoughts and deeds, still more revolting is the mask he wears. But if he be of a genial, liberal, loving and honest nature, if his thoughts are clean and wholesome and his acts manly and true, and, though they may be dimmed by age or almost hidden by marks of suffcering and affliction, the quick eye of the child and the intelligent gaze of the dog will note them, even when eyes in wiser heads are blind to their presence. Let us then lead such lives as will give to our countenance the keynote of a good character.—W. R. Emereson in Sample Case. Mrs. Butler form Wichita, Kas, attended Metropolitan Sunday.

At a meeting of the Board of Directors on Tuesday evening, Mr. Flynn, city park commissioner, was present to discuss the matter of a swimming pool for Armourdale. He is willing to give Armourdale all the support he can in this matter and thought such a pool could be had if the Armourdale people took enough interest to warrant the same.

The Bible Band was excellent at 6 p. m., and many good things were found in the lesson. All are welcome to this band.
