Our Traveling Correspondent Gives Good Advice to the New Coming Citizens Chicago, Ill.—If I could just make a new world, and furnish something for all the young people to do who are coming out of school at this time. They hold the world in one hand and with the other they open the imaginary door of opportunity and are turning the world over. It would be a fine thing if all of them can realize their dream, but all of them are not prepared, and some will go to the top, some will be plodders, while others will revert their energy, and go the other way. This is the way of life, it has always been and will forever be. If all the graduates would take high places in place, what would become of the world? You need not answer this question just now, but think about it for yourself. Then I would put to you another question, if all the fish hatched out would become full grown fish, would there be any place in the water for them? The rivers, lakes, gulfs, seas and streams and even the straits would become overcrowded and there would be a fishy world. But some little baby fish go to feed the full grown up fish and some of the grownups go to feed birds, until the fish population is decreased daily, and still they come in the world, some escape and make the fish world worth while. So it is with man. Every which way we turn now we are confronted with invitation by some one who desires to have us pay our respects to them they have reached commencement day—a day for commencement into the real duties of life. The world must continue to go on and each fellow must contribute his part. These graduates coming from the various schools of this country means that the "Yassah, Boss," hat-under-arm Negro leader must be pushed back to where he belongs, and the man who can stand at attention, head erect and look-every man in the face, must eventually take his place at the head, and say to the world that man is not mere color, physical size or strength, but he is "Mind Soul Will." His power will lie in his mind. He will be the thinker, and from him must come thought. I said thought, and not mere words. Every word must have a meaning, and every meaning must be expressed by words. I have before me as I sit down to write to you this week, an invitation from the Virginia Theological Seminary and College to commencement May 31. but because of my physical condition I will not be abel to be there, but must say that I will get some information from there and tell you about it. I wish I could be there that I might turn out a few big sounds, I care not whether they mean anything or not, just so I have the sound. Before turning my attention to my going some, I must stop here and pay my respects to a fallen hero, Prof. M. M. Rogers, of Dallas, Texas, who died in Houston, Texas, and who will be missed. He was auditor of the National Baptist Convention, Secretary of the Texas Missionary and Educational Convention, manager of the Western Star, and one of the leaders of his race in our country. He was a man of worth, of ability and a friend of his race as well as humanity. Dr L. K. Williams, of Chicago went to the funeral, and I would have gone there myself, but I regret that I could not make it. He has paid the debt that we all SUBSCRIPTION PRICE TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50 must pay, and just how soon my time will be, I do not know nor I care not, for I have lived well today, let tomorrow do its worst. I have jumped from state to state, just like a fellow goes from one ward to another in a city. I have been this country over, and I am ready at any time to cross my arms and say, "Come welcome, Death." But why talk about that now when I have other things to say this week? I have been going some and you know I have. When I took my pen in hand to write you a few lines to inform you of my health last week, I was in Clarksburg, West Virginia, and as happy as a lark with full-fledged wings. I was there mingling with the great educators, with the men and women of thought. I was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Johnson. From there I beat it to Institute, W. Va., where I found Prof. John W. Davis, as busy as could be phtting his brain in operation and pushing things at the state school. Will you think of West Virginia appropriating $455,000 to the school last year, for the work, and building for next year? That's going some. Then I made it to Frankfort, Ky., and spent the night there. I was the guest of Miss Martha E. Williams, one of the teachers of the city school, and she has been teaching ever since "Heck" was a pup and you know that Heck is so old now that he is toothless. She is a good teacher, and you note I said Miss Williams. She owns some fine real estate, collects her rents, and then she lives in a mansion herself. She is prepared to entertain the city, and at her home. I had the pleasure of shaking hands with Dr. E. E. Underwood, Supreme Keeper of Records and Seal, of the Knight of Pythias, and believe me honey that official is getting things in order for the Topeka meeting. They are going there in full numbers. I mean they are going to be in Topeka, and Dr. Underwood will be relanded in his position because he is such a good official. He has done his work well. As I looked at Prof. Mayo, who has been at the head of the public school there so many years, and who is now failing in health I had to shed a tear or two. He is the man who had something to do with the making of Charles Stewart, and helped place him where he is today. But useful men must drop out of the ranks, like a played-out soldier, he must drop out, because he cannot march any further. I regret very much to see this, but it must be. Off for Louisville, where I found them issuing out diplomas at the State University. Dr. C. H. Parish, the president of Simmons Universoty, had done good work, and I congratulate him. I had the pleasure of being the guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Steward. Mr Steward is editor of the American Baptist, and superintendent of the Fifth Street Baptist Sunday school, and a man with a vision. I found pleasure in being in his company. I heard them speeches, them rounded sentences, and full stops in periods, and noted the marks of distinction. I tell you I just felt like I was ready to go home to see what wonderful progress we have made. Now, then I walked around them streets, and then made it to Indianapolis, Ind., where I spent a part of Sunday, and now I am in Chicago, the guest of Mrs. Elvie L. Stewart, and her son, Charles Stewart, Jr., and they are just killing me with kindness. I don't see how that cultured young wife can pay so much attention to old folks, but she is well trained, and knows how to treat the friends of her husband. Now, there is the boy, he is a busy little chap. He is making pictures. I was surprised to see how he is developing and printing pictures, not alone for himself, but for others. Well, he is a block off the old chip, and he is his father, over and over except a slight improvement. His father is a man of great beauty and his son is going to be a man. Kansas City, Kansas, Friday, June 3, 1921 CITY K. P.'S HAVE TIME AT LEAVENWORTH The Knight's of Pythias Uniform companies and their First Regiment band, on Decoration day were the guests of Attucks Company. No. 8 at Leavenworth, at an outing at Dixon Park. A large number of friends of these companies accompanied them, in all 337 made the trip. The First Regiment band of the Uniform Rank made things lively on the trip with their music; also at the park, during the afternoon. A parade through the colored districts was made at 2 P. M., which brought hundreds to the streets. The last special left the park at 11 P. M. It was a big day in the old town, and everybody returned feeling like they had been some place. The M. E. church at Ninth street and Oakland avenue, has a good evangelist here and is carrying on a series of meetings. Attend them. ROBINSON LAUNDRY ADDS OFFICE AND BUSINESS SUPPLY The N. B. Robinson laundry has placed into their business an apron, towel and coat supply with a daily service. They will soon establish an office on the Missouri side, where they already have a splendid route, serving their customers daily. Mr. Robinson has had in mind for some time, an office and business supply trade, as the demands have long warranted it. This is the first and only supply service operated by any colored man in the two Kansas Cities. Mr. Robinson has been one of the very successful men in the laundry business and his new addition is most sure to be a success. He can be reached by telephone at any time. Fairfax 2755 will bring one of his auto delivery wagons. N. A. A. C. P. MASS MEETING The closing campaign in mass meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will be held Thursday evening, June 9th at Mt. Zion Baptist church, Virginia avenue and Fourth street. This will close the drive for one thousand members, when every worker is expected to be present with their final report. The executive committee and campaign officers will meet at headquarters, Lawyer E. A. Shackelfords office, 511 Minnesota avenue, Saturday evening, June 4th at 8 P. M. This is an important meeting. G A. R. MEMORIAL Dr. Bolden preached a fine sermon for the G. A. R. at his church Sunday. On Monday at Woodlawn cemetery Prof. J. J. Lewis, Judge I. F. Bradley and C. Jenkins spoke appropriately at their memorial and decoration of graves. HEAR THE GREAT PREACH- ER! Dr. Perry, the preacher, who preaches plain Gospel, is announced to preach at Metropolitan Temple about Sunday June 12th. Find out the date and be sure to hear him. of talent, and the world will know that Charles Stewart, Jr., lived. Are you going to the National Baptist Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. Congress, June 22, in Kansas City, Mo.? You should make it there by all means. I am going to be there myself. Already I have my things in line and have packed my trunk to get there. I may start just a little ahead. Give my love to all inquiring friends, and tell them that I am not well at present and hope when these few lines come to hand may find them the same. I think I have said enough for this time. ADVOCATE W.G. BANKS INCORPORATES COMPANY W. G. Banks, one of our noted organizers and business founders, has incorporated his new enterprise, The Peoples' Carpet, Rug, Overall and Shirt Manufacturing Company, and states in a page ad in this issue, that he expects to be ready for operation in sixty days in this city. Mr. Banks is well known as a promoter and organizer and his knowledge along this line of work can be compared with the best minds. The company has its charter to do business in a wholesale way, with an authorized capital stock of $50,000. The directors are some of the strongest financial men and women we have in this part of the west, and with an experienced head there should be no doubt to the success of a plant of this kind. Mr. Walter Long, of Minneapolis, is visiting Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Long on Everett.

The reverend says he is not going to leave us altogether, as he expects to still reside on Kansas soil, at 950 Walker avenue. While the church on this side and his friends were loath to see him leave, they bid him farewell on Sunday evening, with a packed house and wished him every success, and as a larger field that greater good might be accomplished to a greater number of people.

The pastor, Rev. J. F. Griffin, delivered the message to an appreciative audience. It was said by many, that this sermon was among the strongest and most powerful in eloquence and spiritual fervency that he has ever delivered from this pulpit. Subject "Not ashamed of the Gospel." The congregation was simply electrified with the words of this wonderful Gospel messenger. The audience was honored with the presence of Bishop H. B. Parks, who made a few strong and encouraging remarks, as the bishop only can, and at the close opened the doors of the church, when two men came forward. At the evening service the pastor delivered another inspiring sermon, to a nice evening audience. Rev. Mr. Stone, of this conference, was a visitor at the evening service and Sabbath school and made remarks to the school. Sunday week, the second Sunday in June, will be Third Quarterly meeting of this conference year. The rally is progressing nicely, which comes off the fourth Sunday in June. The clubs are all working for their full quota, any many expect to report much more. The class meetings are growing rapidly in attendance, and great spiritual blessings are being received by those who attend. Those who absent themselves from the Sabbath school are depriving themselves from usefulness and service, as Christians and good citizens. Parents are making a serious mistake when they fail to send their children to Sabbath school. Come to services Sunday and hear he Gospel preached in its purity.

Simply give me your name, age, and address. Return mail, if necessary. If free bottle of LEPSO, then you can prove yourself, enclose a receipt, just what this famous treatment was. If you can prove yourself, other sufferers state that LEPSO has brought them complete freedom from this terrible affliction. If you offer to send it free, you surely prove it true.
