COMMENCEMENT AT W. U. THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1921 KANSAS Volume VII. COMMEN SOLDIER HERO IS INTERRED HERE DIED IN FRANCE The remains of Private Jesse Alexander, the son of Mr. and Mrs. N. T. Alexander, 2925 North Fifth street, who lost his life for his country, October 31, 1918, in the late World war, in France, arrived here May the 17th from Hoboken, New Jersey, where it arrived on May 15th. The final interment was made Wednesday, May 18th, in West Lawn cemetery, when a short service was held, by the Rev. Mr. Baker. This war hero, besides his parents, leaves three sisters, all of this city, Mrs. Anna Mae Fuget, Mrs. Ludella Boyd, and Miss Christina Alexander. BOULDIN OPENS A FINE HABERDASHER SHOP Mr. A. J. Bouldin, "The Cleaner," and one of the race's and city's most successful business men, has opened a haberdasher store, in connection with his cleaning business, at 1606 North Fifth street. This room has been petitioned beautiful show cases and other beautiful show iases and other conveniences for a first-class place of business. Mr. Bouldin says he has long seen the need of a business of this kind, and decided to put in a stock of ladies' and gent's furnishings. And it can be said of Mr. Bouldin he does not do things by halves. You will find in this store, as fine and clean a stock of gent's furnishings as any place in the city. You will see mentioned in his ad of this issue a few of his standard brands carried. He carries a large variety, both in quality and sizes of gent's goods. If we could have a few more Bouldins, we would have a few more business enterprises. The Advocate congratulates Mr. Bouldin on his business ability and is ever ready to boost any and all of our enterprises.

Of course it is hard for one to understand all of this world, and a man has never been able to know completely himself, and others must tell you about yourself, and know some things, guess at some. Thus the world moves along. I was in New York sitting in the office of a doctor. He had just blew up something around my arm, and saw it go down, then he listened to what the bugs were saying, and when he was through with this, he called another doctor up, and said to him: "I have a very sick man over here, and I would like to have you examine his heart condition." I wish you could have seen me look at that man when he said that I was a very sick man. Engagement was made and one day four doctors were listening to my insides, and the next day two others, and they were busy as could be. I am not able to tell you what they did do, but a few days' later, the man had me return, and showed me the motions of my heart in a kind of moving picture arrangement. I am sure that my friends will be sorry to know that I am sick and may have to go to bed for a season, and they will pray for me. I do not need to tell you that I have been going some, for if you just go back a week you will find that when I took my pen in hand to write you a few lines to inform you of my health last week I was in the Missionary Department of the African Methodist Episcopal church, New York City, Dr. J. W. Rankin, secretary. I just made my headquarters in his office and enjoyed being around him so very much. I made several slight trips while there. In this I had the pleasure of visiting Jamaica, N Y., which is down on Long Island. This happened because Mrs. Alfred J. Eno, one of the wealthiest women in that section of the country, and a prominent suffragist, was in Miami, Florida, last winter and attended a special lecture to the women of our race. She was much interested and invited me to come to her city and meet the people there. There was a degree of sincerity and earnestness about her invitation hence I accepted it, and made the trip out there on Thursday night. She returned home from Florida, and wrote to me telling me not to disappoint them, and I declared that I would not, but would be on hand I reached Jamaica, and found that the people of my race were looking for some one, but did not know. All arrangements had been made to give me a big time, but the preacher had told their people that some big white man was going to speak to them, but they were surprised when they looked into my beautiful blue eyes and lily black face that I BOULDIN CLEANERS "That Clean" Has opened a Haberdasher Store with a complete line of Gent's Furnishings.

You see she had brought to our people one of their own that they did not know was in all of the world. hey considered her their friend and spoke of how good and kind she was to those who worked for her. She is one woman free from race prejudice and can see the human side of life, and truly recognized the "Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man." We need more such women and men in this country of ours. She told of her efforts to secure for my people the ballot in Florida, and how plain she had talked to her sisters down there in that land of race prejudice and hatred. sending forth its rays to bless mankind. I urge Dr. Moton to continue in the good work and some day those who would say "away" will gather around your open grave and praise God for your life. We are proud of you and your work. Washington was reached and I went direct to the home of Dr. W. H. Jernagin, the president of the National Race Congress and the man who is doing so much to help this race of ours. He is a man who has worked from the ground to the top. He entered Washington a few years agol particularly unknown, and now he is in the front rank among the leaders of Washington. He is the man who believes in doing things and is always ready to go to the front for his race. He has purchased a church for his peo- I spoke to the people and when I was through left for New York City, where I rfound Dr. M. W. Thornton awaiting my coming. I looked around in New York a few more days, and then made it to Bethel Sunday morning to hear myself preach, which I enjoyed if the people did not. Monday night I spoke in another church in New York and left there Tuesday afternoon to go over to Rutherford. New Jersey to be the guest of Dr. Luther B. Brooks, and his people. This little intellectual giant met me at the Erie stable, and escorted me to the home of Mr. Smith, where we had some chicken placed in our eternity, and went to the church, where we found a full house awaiting for the message. Returning to New York about 12 o'clock at night and getting ready to leave for Washington, I found that all the beds had been sold in the bed car, and I was thinking that I would have to sit up all night, when I saw Dr. Robert R. Moton, and Editor Fred R. Moore coming down the steps in that big Pennsylvania stable. Dr. Moton had a drawing room and invited me to have a bed in it, which I accepted, and slept all the way to Washington. Dr. Moton, accompanied by Mr. Hunt, was returning home. We are all real proud of Dr. Robert R. Moton, because he is getting a hearing for us that no other man can get, and he is speaking right out in church. He is said the right things at the right time and in the right place. He is pleading our cause and at the same time he is making new friends for us. We ar all glad that he was selected to succeed Dr. Booker T. Washington and I believe that it was God's plan, and now that he is God's man and doing the will of his Faher. God give us more. Of course you will find here and there men who will criticize Dr. Moton, and say mean things about him, but it is like them little fellows who made an attack on Gulliver one time. Men as small that he could put them in his pocket, and they looked upon his hat as a mountain. You recall the story. I think they were called Lilliputians or something like that. I would only say to Dr. Moton, that for centuries astronomers have been saying that there were spots on the sun, and the sun has never stopped for a second to deny or affirm the allegation, but has been going right on ADVOCATE sending forth its rays to bless mankind. I urge Dr. Moton to continue in the good work and some day those who would say "away" will gather around your open grave and praise God for your life. We are proud of you and your work. Washington was reached and I went direct to the home of Dr. W. H. Jernagin, the president of the National Race Congress and the man who is doing so much to help this race of ours. He is a man who has worked from the ground to the top. He entered Washington a few years agoI practically unknown, and now he is in the front rank among the leaders of Washington. He is the man who believes in doing things and is always ready to go to the front for his race. He has purchased a church for his people and they have paid for it. The Mt. Carmel was just a little unknown congregation, when they extended the call to him, but now it takes its place by the side of the leading churches in Washington. The National Race Congress elected him to go to the Pan-African Conference in Paris, and the people are going to raise the money to send him. He deserves the trip, and I am going to contribute my mite to this, as well as many others. The Advocate of Kansas City; Grand Chancellor Thompson, M.D.; Grand Worthy Counsellor, Mrs. Norene Davis, and many others are going to send a contribution soon. In Washington, I attended the meeting of the Virginia Baptist State Convention, one of the Baptist organizations in this country that is doing something. These men and women are the patrons of the Virginia Theological Seminary and college. Dr. T. J. King, of Richmond, pastor of the Fifth Street Baptist church, is president of the convention, and you will believe me when I tell you that this intellectual giant is the leader of men. He is doing a great work in this section of the country. The people all look up to him as the Baptist father, as the Moses of the Baptists, and they are wise in so doing. In the leadership of Dr. King the Baptists are doing more than at any in their history. They placed on the table $30,000 for missions and education. During the fiscal year closing May 30, the school will have handled over one hundred thousand dollars. I wish I could show the president of this institution to you. He is a little body, but all brains, Dr. R. C. Woods. He is a man with a vision, and he is all inspiration to the boys and girls who are fortunate enough to be students in the school. God bless and keep him to the end. Give us more like him. Deacon Adolphus Humbles of Lynchburg, is the treasurer. He himself, is as rich as cream. He is one of the wealthiest laymen in the Baptist ranks. When the institution needs money, they are not forced to take off their hat and go to a white man with their mouths open, showing their teeth, but they simply tell Deacon Humbles and the money is forthcoming to any amount. In Arkansas, the Baptists there have Mrs. Eliza Miller 'of Helena, a wealthy widow. I wish these two Baptists could meet, PLENTY FLOWERS for your DECORATIONS MEMORIAL DAY To those who call early CAPE JESSIMNES Fresh and fine...50c and $1 bunch MOSELY — FLORIST 712 Minnesota Avenue WHEN ON THE AVENUE Stop in and receive A PACKGE OF CANDY FOR THE BABY at BEN DEUTCH'S 507 MINNESOTA AVENUE THOMAS KENNEDY EDITOR AND PUBLISHER U.

MONARCHS TO BE HOME SATURDAY—MADE FINE RECORD The Kansas City Monarchs baseball team arrived home today from a part way around the Colored National League circuit, playing against the best teams in the league, such as Rube Foster's American Giants, Indianapolis A. B. C.'s and Columbus, Ohio's crack team. They played 12 games on foreign grounds and return with an even break. Who could ask for better? Tomorrow, Saturday. May 28, the strong Indianapolis A. B. C.'s will be here for their first time this season and will be the Monarch's strong contenders for five games. B. I. Taylor has a strong team this year and played our boys nearly off of their feet, last week at Indianapolis. Taylor is one of the old aces in baseball and never gives up, at home or abroad. But the Monarchs are going at high tide and when Rogan, Currie and Crawford gets a day each on the mound, there is not much left for anybody's pill chasers. All games are at Association Park, at 3 P. M.
