The Knights of Pythias and Court of Calanthe of the Supreme Lodge and Supreme Encampment have come and gone, and it was said to be the largest and most mafinificent in its history. The sessions were held at the state capitol, the supreme lodge meeting in the house of representatives and the Supreme Court in the supreme court room, both being ideal meeting places. Delegates from nearly every state in the Union and some from foreign countries were represented. The friends that follow these biennial meetings were, as usual, running up into the thousands. The J. E. Lewis Camp at the fair grounds were the largest since its beginning, this being the eleventh biennial encampment. The camp was an ideal one, under the chief supervision of that military genius, Major General R. R. Jackson. The press and public paid this distinguished soldier many compliments as to the fine discipline, which his five thousand Sir Knights displayed. Right by General Jackson's side was Brigadier General Thomas Kennedy, commanding the state of Kansas, who, with his staff and Sir Knights, hardly saw a minute's rest from the opening to the very close of camp. General Kennedy also was highly complimented from the Chief Commander and Sir Knights from every quarter, for the splendid service and entertainment given. There was only one occurrence that marred the camp and that was on Tuesday night, when a cloudburst turned the camp ground into a swimming pool, but everybody took it good naturedly and all were happy the next morning when the sun came up bright and warm. Clotheslines were at a premium for one could see miles of rope stretched all over the camp. The Pulpit Aid Board of the First A. M. E. church gave a rosebud reception at the home of Mrs. Lula Logan, 1215 Armstrong avenue, Wednesday evening, August 17. Printed invitations were given to a large number of friends. The dining room, where punch, ice cream and cake were served, was beautifully decorated, and each guest was given a rosebud. The affair was a success and the guests departed at a late hour, declaring Mrs. Logan a pleasant hostess. Mrs. A. L. Sightler of Jacksonville, Fla., stopped off a few days with Mr. and Mrs. Al. Bryant on her way, home from the Supreme Session of the Knights of Pythias at Topeka. She was a delegate from her state. Mrs. Laura Kelso, of Los Angeles, California, is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Pearl Scott, at 1303 State avenue.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES A large congregation attended morning service at Metropolitan Baptist Temple and listened to Rev. Holly preach. He is a very good preacher and lets his light shine. After a large offering was lifted for the church, a collection was raised for Brother John Collins, Sr., a member of this church, who has been sick quite a while. At 8 P. M., Rev. Alva Royston, a young preacher, who seems to be "after God's own heart," preached a real good concise sermon, from II Kings 1 t o18, "The Ministry of the Prophet Elisha." He kept his text from beginning to end and ended with a beautiful climax, making Elisha's ministry a synonym of Christ's ministry the greatest of all. Deacons Jackson, Johnson, Thomas, Jennings, Taylor, Hulsey, Oliver, Stovall, Ford and McCombs, fathers of this church were present at one or both of these services. Rev. S. L. Johnson, moderator of the board said, "Rev. Royston preached a splendid sermon. Women's day is next Sunday, August 28, at 3 p. m. All women and all men and all children are invited. Also, Dr. Oliver, a great preacher from Omaha, will preach morning and evening. Come all day to this church. The writer begs pardon. Dr. Harrison, who is called to Metropolitan Temple, is from Ennis, Texas, instead of Denison. The writer predicts he will accept the call. See if she is correct. Rev. and Mrs. Garrison attended Metropolitan Sunday night. St. Paul A.M.E. Church The fourth suarterly conference was held last Sunday at St. Paul A. M. E. church. The presiding elder, Dr. A. C. Terrell, preached at 11 A. M. The Rev. Dr. J. F. Griffin of the First A. M. E. church, electrified his hearers at 3 P. M. At 8 P. M. the Rev. Norman of Nashville, Tenn.

The peace dove is a bird of prey. The rhyme wave casualties are unsung. Auto accidents are becoming incidents. Golf stockings cover a multitude of shins. One little tombstone may tell a big story. Baldheaded friends find it difficult to part. Peace, like good wines improves with age. Mother has hay fever; father has pay fever. If you bet $13 on a race, and lose, it's unlucky. Hope is a dream a man has when he is awake. Good liars are scarce, but some are very skillful. Fine feathers do not make fine birds for a pot ple. As a watering place, the ice cooler has advantages. The only sure thing about life is the end thereof. Contentment would never have discovered America. Flat pocketbooks are sometimes caused by flat heads. Conscience makes more bluffers than it does cowards. Love that feeds on beauty alone is apt to die of starvation. When she quits calling it "lingerle" the honeymoon is over. It is easy to get onto the curves of bow-legged ball pitchers. It takes at least 16 summers to make one summer girl. The first ingredients of the melting pot are soap and water.

Call at 2918 North Sherman, Kansas City, Kans: A great greenish-white diamond, known as the "Maximillian stone," is on exhibition for the first time in this country at New York. Like all large gems, this stone has a history which is not happy. It was found in Brazil about 1850 and in its rough state weighed nearly 50 carats, Ferdinand Joseph Maximillian, then archduke of Austria, traveled extensively in South America. While he was in Brazil he bought the diamond, it is said, for a price approximating $375,000. The jewel today is in the same condition as it was when worn by the Empress Marie Charlotte in Maximillian's short reign in Mexico. When Maximillian was executed a commission was designated to sell the diamond along with other gems that had been part of the gorgeous court. The stone was bought by an American. As part of his estate the diamond is again to be sold. PUT BABY IN SECOND PLACE Small Sister Would Be All Right, Said Little Miss, but Oh You Player- Pianol A five-year-old Vailburgh miss is enamored of the baby next door. Yesterday she interviewed her mother; subject, the practicability of having a baby sister of her own. The mother was sympathetic, but pointed out that babies are expensive. "How much would a baby cost?" asked the five-year-old. "Oh, I don't know just how much, but a great deal," her mother answered. "As much as a player-plano?" the youngster pursued. "Yes, more than a player-piano," was the answer. Then said the young miss decisively. "I think we'd better get a player-piano."—Newark News. Objected to the Color.

Lord S.—But that is not green—it's white. Walter—Yes, sir; I know, sir; but in this country we sometimes call people green who are as white as yourself, sir. —Exchange. Art Criticism. Arthur, age nine, returned from his first visit to the art institute with such a depressed air that his mother was puzzled. "Didn't you like it, dear?" "Not much. Mostly there were people with their heads cut off." "But there must have been some pictures of animals and trees and lovely country." "Oh, a few, but," in disgust, "there were more of people doing things they shouldn't." "Things they shouldn't?" "Yes, some of them had taken off all of their clothes, even their union suits." "Do you relax in a movie theater?" "That depends on what is being shown on the screen," said the impressionable patron. "Yes?"

Writing to the New York Herald, a devotee of the "royal game" puts the query "Is golf, after all, an Irish game?" In asking the question it is done with respect and reverence; in no sense to disturb the settled case and mental pulse and satisfaction of ye good Scot or Briton. Why the suggestion, however? Simply this: Ireland was the first of the islands to be reclaimed from Drulidism and converted to Christianity. That was in the early Fifth century. After that Scotia or Scotland became Christian—the Sixth century; England in the Eighth and Germany in the Ninth century, and all following and through Irish missionaries. True also that the Scotch and Irish were practically all Celt and one people then and all friendly. Now, then, it is of the old Irish folk-lore that St. Patrick at the famous Drulid feast showed (1) that the leg of a bird was larger than a quarter of beef (2) that a dog could kill the bird, and (3) that three leaves could jointly subsist on one stem, and at that feast "there were feats of strength and art all round," and among the games was the game of "Nine Holes." That was the first mention of the nine hole game, of course. It was so played in Ireland for centuries. It was the putting of the ball into each hole of the nine as laid out in the course. Therefore, the question: Was that game the forerunner of its kind in the world, and if so was it the forerunner or keystone of golf? AIR LIFEBOAT BRITISH IDEA The first lifeboat of the air, which has been built with great secrecy, is to be launched soon in England. After the official trials it will go through a series of tests with the British fleet. If it proves to be satisfactory, a large number of the craft on a much larger scale will be constructed. The design is the outcome of three years of secret research and tests. The lifeboat will be able to reach a vessel in distress at a speed of more than 100 miles an hour, and it is claimed that it will be able to ride through the roughest storm with the confident safety of an Atlantic liner. The boats are able to taxi along the water. Their seaworthiness is to be tested by sending the first experimental ship out with the navy, where it is to remain at sea for several days without any "mother ship." The wing span of the one now near completion is 140 feet. Safety in the most violent sea will come from the resilience of the hull, which is in one piece from stem to stern. When this hull strikes a huge wave it gives way slightly in much the same way that a pneumatic tire does when it strikes an obstacle on the road. Plan Shrines to Burroughs. The John Burroughs Memorial association has started its campaign to raise funds to purchase and maintain the various properties of the late naturalist. It is estimated it will take about $36,000 to purchase them, and an additional $4,000 to maintain them the first year. The association intends to maintain the Burroughs properties as the naturalist himself maintained them. His working library, some of his original manuscripts, rifles, shotguns and fishing tackle will be exhibited. It is the opinion of the association that shrines to great men, especially shrines to literary men, are too few, and that the many friends and admirers of John Burroughs will be interested in keeping up the places in which he lived, studied and labored in the 84 years of his life. It hopes to raise funds to maintain these properties by popular subscription.—New York Times. Waterproof Matches. Campers and picnicckers will hall with delight the new waterproof match, which can be easily made at home in the following way: Melt a few lumps of candle wax in an old can on the stove. Allow this to cool a little and then, before it has set, dip the matches in, one at a time. Treat the heads and about half of the wooden part. Place the matches on one side to cool. Matches treated in this simple manner have been soaked in water for many hours, and they have ignited as readily as those which were perfectly dry. The only difference is that, in striking, it is needful to do so a trifle more firmly so as to get through the thin film of wax surrounding the head. When once the flame-starts, the match burns very readily, owing to the wax which has adhered to the wood. Any ordinary matches can be treated in the manner described. The Unwelcome Stranger. Scene: Lobby of theater. A little tallor, leading a boy about six years old by the hand, gives the doorman one ticket. Doorman—Here! You've gotta have a ticket for that boy. Tallor—For dis boy? Ah, don't be foolish, mister. He's only a small little feller. He won't do nothing. Doorman—I don't care. You can't get in unless you have a ticket for the boy. Tallor—It's all right, mister. I promise you I won't let him look—Theater Magazine. UNLIKE THE OLD-TIME DUEL Recent Affair of Honor in Parts Actually Appears to Have Been Carefully "Chaperoned." Not long ago a quarrel broke out between a subprefect and the secretary general of the prefecture in a department of the west. Feeling ran so high that blows were exchanged. Exchanged? No, not quite. The word isn't quite exact. If they had really been exchanged, both the enemies might have thrown up the sponge. But there was bestowal of slaps by one of the functionaries and simple reception without return by the other. That was serious! Only blood could adequately wash the offended cheek! They secured their witnesses, named the day and bought themselves swords. But the prefect found out about it. At first he tried to effect a recollection between the two foes. Vain effort! Then he tried to use his authority to forbid their fighting. Useless threat! They offered him two herole resignations to win the right to get themselves killed. "Well, then, have your confounded throats cut, if you want to!" he cried. "But you shall assist at the combat and I will hold you responsible for the lives of both of them," he said to the chief clerk of the prefecture. "If anybody gets hurt I shall discharge you!" The chief clerk obeyed without a murmur. He chaperoned the encounter with a huge sword in his hand, and whenever a blow seemed dangerous, he warded off the murderous weapon. In the end they made it up, and the prefect was content.—From Le Crie, Paris. MEN SET IN "HIGH PLACES." Those Only Admirable Who Remain Affable and Generous to Those of Lower Levels. Speaking of the Mount Everest expedition, Sir Francis Younghusband says: "At great heights men get very nervous and irritable. At 16,000 feet they begin to lose patience with one another, and the higher they climb the deeper they hate." There is a moral in that for men seeking high altitudes in our common human life. May it never be said of them with truth: "The higher they climb the deeper they hate." It is a fine thing to find a man who goes upward to great heights without losing his head, his nervous equilpoise, his self-control. It is an inspiration to us who plod and drudge along at the lower levels to find him generous, amiable, affable, ready to meet all comers and faithful to his friends. On the other hand, it is deplorable to come upon a man who wins his way to eminence of any sort, and in that lofty station, instead of looking to the sky and a superior Power, looks down upon "the common herd" and thinks—and tell—how great he is in comparison with them.—Ihilladelphia Public Ledger. There has been invented in Europe a music typewriter called the kromgraphe. With the aid of this instrument, it is said, the composer may produce a typewritten scroll without the trouble of making the characters by hand. All that he has to do is to place himself at the piano and give free play to his creative fancies. Every stroke upon the keys is registered in regular musical character upon a paper scroll wound upon a drum. The machine operates through a system of electric contacts with the plano keys. The registering apparatus, which resembles an ordinary typewriter in size, may, in order to remove discordant sounds, be placed at a distance from the plano, even in an adjoining room.—Christian Science Monitor. Unwritten Rule. Any soda clerk will tell you with disgust of the hesitation with which many customers order their drinks while he waits impatiently. That is why an uptown store has little roulette wheels at each table. Instead of numbers the haird turns to the various flavors and specialties. "It seems to attract the young boys and girls, especially," said the manager. "They like to spin the wheel to see what to drink. It's an unwritten rule always to carry out the order to which the hand points. Luck is good to me when expensive specialties are drawn and bad, I suppose, for the fellow that pays the bill."—New York Sun. Jazz Raises Rent The agent who was singing the praises of the summer cottage on the Michigan shore dwelt with particular emphasis on one near a more elaborate house. He then said that the rental was $5 a month more than the rest." "That's because you get music," he explained. "Music?" asked the puzzled client. "What do you mean?" "Well," was the answer, "the people who own that house give weekly dances during the summer. They have an orchestra on the lawn. You can hear it and give dances yourself without having to pay." Without Light for a Week. A London suburb was without light for a week recently owing to a strike among the employees of the electric light and power plant. One exception was made and that was the hospital, which was supplied with current sufficient for the operation of an electric incubator in which a feeble infant was being raised in artificial heat. The Kansas City Advocate for August 26, 1921 Sunday School Lesson (BY REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago). (C. 1921, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR AUGUST 28 FROM ASIA TO EUROPE LESSON TEXT-Acts 18.6-18. GOLDEN TEXT—And they said, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house,—Acts 15:31. REFERENCE MATERIAL—Rom. 15:15-21. PRIMARY TOPIC—A Wonderful Dream. JUNIOR TOPIC—Paul Crosses Over Into Europe. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -Beginning Work on a New Continent. -YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -Paul Carries the Gospel to Europe. 1. Forbidden by the Holy Spirit to Preach the Word (vv. 6-8). We have here a lesson on divine guidance. The inclination of Paul and his companions was to turry in the provinces of Asia preaching the word, but contrary to their inclination they were hurried along. They might have reasoned "What difference would it make as to where we preach, just so the Gospel is preached?" Though seemingly small, the question, as to whether the Gospel should be preached among the people in the East or In the West has determined the entire history of the church. Had they preached among the people in the East, Christianity would never have become worldwide. On the other hand, by laying hold upon the Grecian intellect and combining with it the push and energy of the Romans, it became worldwide. In the guidance of the Spirit we find Him just as active and as faithful in closing doors as in opening them. "The stops as well as the steps of a good man are ordered of the Lord." We ought to as truly recognize God's hand in the "shut-ins" as well as in the "open-outs." II. Called to Macedonia (vv. 9-12). A vision was given to Paul of a man from Macedonia pleading for help. This was the solution of the mystery of closed doors about them. There is a negative and a positive side to the Spirit's guidance. If we will note both we shall be able to determine with a surety the proper course of action. In order to be led aright we must be sure that we are willing to be led, pray definitely for leading, and then render willing obedience as fast as the light comes. As soon as the divine way was known they rendered immediate obedience. III. The First Convert in Europe (vv. 13-15). The missionaries went to Philippi. The Jewish element in this city was very insignificant; so much so that they could not afford a synagogue; therefore the devout people were accustomed to worship at the river side. To this humble gathering Paul came and preached to the women gathered there. A certain woman from Thyatira believed his message, and was baptized. Lydia was a woman of wealth, culture, and wide experience, and yet she had need of Chirst. The steps in Lydia's conversion are worthy of note: 1. Attendance at the place of prayer (v. 13). This is the case with most people who are saved. 2. Listened to the preaching of the word of God (vv. 12-14). The instrument used by the Holy Spirit in the conversion of sinners is the word of God. "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Rom. 10:17). 3. Her heart was opened by the Lord (v. 14). Regeneration is a supernatural work. When the Gospel is preached the Spirit of God makes it living and active, opening the sinner's heart for the reception of Christ. 4. She was baptized (v. 15). It is natural for the one who believes in Christ to desire to be baptized. 5. Her household also believed (v. 15). Thus we see that her's was a typical conversion. IV. A Spirit of Divination Cast Out (vv. 16-18). As the missionaries went out from day to day to the place of prayer they were accosted by a young woman possessed by a spirit of divination. She was owned by a syndicate of men who derived large gains from her sooth-saying. This act of the woman became a great annoyance to Paul who, in the name of Jesus Christ, commanded the eyl spirit to come out. Here is a case of a spiritual medium, a fortune-teller, being freed from demoniacal possession. Many men today are making money by the degradation of womanhood, and they resent all efforts to destroy their informal business, even try to destroy those who interefere with their business. Here as everywhere Satan blocks the way as the Gospel of-Christ is carried into new fields, but the Lord is again triumphant. The Multitude of His Mercies For the Lord will not cast off forever: but though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies. For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men—Lamentations 3:31-33. Word of Lord Was Precious. And the child Samuel ministered unto the Lord before Ell. And the word of the Lord, was precious in those days; there was no open vision.—I Samuel 3:1. Mrs. Savage was the guest of Mrs. S. J. Curry at Quindaro for a few days, on her way home from the Knights of Pythias Supreme Lodge session at Topeka. Mrs. J. H. Clayborne on Washington bouevard, has Dr. Coleman, a distinguished female physician from Chicago and other noted visitors as house guests.
