CHURCH A BIG EVENING'S ENTERTAINMENT ADMISSION TO BOTH.....35 CENTS The Pythians and Calantheians of the city will open next Monday night, in the basement of the new Pythian Temple, 524 State avenue, the beginning of a two weeks carnival. A large mass meeting was held Monday night, when several hundred of the two bodies met in the basement of the Temple for the purpose of making arrangements for the big affair. N. W. Thatcher, the president, presided, and gave a full and complete history of the work thus far and what he expected of the Pythians and Calantheians, in order to carry the building on to completion. A committee of five was selected from each of the lodges, Courts and Uniform companies and the band, which met Wednesday evening and made arrangements for the two weeks carnival. Tonight (Friday) the opening of the basement will be held when a band concert will begin at 7:45 and a program will commence at 8:15. Attorney L. A. Knox of Kansas City, Mo. will be the principle speaker of the evening. There is no admittance fee to this opening and the general public is invited to be present. Keep off of date, Thursday. March 23—Annual Knife and Fork Banquet at First A.M.E. church. Bigger than ever. W. A. JARRETT OPENS REAL ESTATE OFFICE Mr. W. W. Jarrett of 923 Freeman avenue, a well known and substantial citizen for many years in this city, has opened a real estate office at 516 Minnesota avenue, which will be known by the name of the Advance Realty Investment company. Mr. Jarrett has been a railroad man for several years and was one who saved his money and knew how to place it to make money and today he can point out a number of valuable real estate properties in this city alone. It is said that in all deals Mr. Jarret thus made in real estate, not a single depreciation in value has been his, but always went the upward trend. Mr. Jarrett says he has a new plan whereby the purchaser will have the advantage in many ways of anything that has ever been established here to the buying public. There is no doubt of Mr. Jarrett's success in this field, as his experience in real estate and his reputation in honest dealing with the public gives his clients a confidence that a stranger would have to work up to. It's certain Mr. Jarrett's many friends will ever be interested in his success. Prescriptions called for and delivered free. Call Drexel 2556. GEORGE W CELEBI MRS.GRAVES ENTERTAINS WHAT-SO-EVER CLUB Every member on the program was full of impersonation and in every way entertaining. There was a conference of members and friends of the club held in the afternoon at which session committees on resolutions and nominations for officers were appointed and the business of the club in general disposed of. At the night session, Mr. Dan Richmond addressed the club on the importance of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, urging an increase in membership. Mr. J. M. Wright delivered the eulogy on the life of the late Colonel Charles Young, and Prof. P. G. Porter, of Olathe, spoke very eloquently and interestingly on the life of John Brown. Judge I. F. Bradley, Sr., very ably presented to the audience the life of Frederick Douglass, and the Rev. N. J. Johnson, of the Mount Olive M. E. church and a student in the law department of Washington College, delivered the principal address of the evening on the life and character of Lincoln. It is said by all who expressed themselves to have been the most able address ever delivered to the club. For one hour the distinguished prelate held the people spellbound with flights of oratory, logic and reason. It was a most wonderful speech. Lincoln's Gettysburg speech was delivered by Master Robert Mosley, a student in the Industrial institute, and music for the occasion was furnished by the band of that institution. Prof. J. P. King of Kansas City. Kansas, was elected president; W. A. Betts, Wichita, vice-president; Thos. Kennedy, of Kansas City, secretary; and Prof. P. G. Porter of Olathe, chairman of the executive committee. Topeka was selected as the next place of meeting. Executive Committee—Prof. P. G. Porter; Olathe; Attorney Dorsey Green, Kansas City; D. L. Taylor, Salina; Dr. G. G. Brown, Wichita; Mr. George Williams, Topeka; Dr. J. F. Griffin, Kansas City; Mr. E. Percy Roberson, Parsons; Dr. Frank Eagleson, Coffeyville; Hon.

Dillard & Rodgers, Drexel 2556. Mr. L. J. Maddux, at one time the leading grocer of our racial group in the city and today probably the best informed from a commercial standpoint in our group of business enterprises as to when it comes to real value. Mr. Maddux was out of the business for some years, but went back to his first love about a year ago, and is now running a well stocked room of fancy groceries and meats at 615 Garfield avenue, where he is doing a nice business and serving a fine community of appreciative citizens. - Kansas City, Kansas, probably leads all other cities in the number of colored employees in the mail service, there being more than one hundred whose homes are here. A large number of them are in the railway mail service and quite a few at the Terminal and clerks and carriers of the city. Rev. M. C. Lewis, of this city, has been called to the pastorate of Mt. Olive Baptist church, at West Plains, Mo. The friends of Rev. Lewis, who is well known here, as a Christian minister, wish for him the greatest of success in his new field of labor.

BURLEIGH MUSIC CLUB The First Friday night in each month, Burleigh Music Club has what is known as its "Round Table and Party" at which time guests are received through invitations extended by members. On February 3, the members were surprised with a review of some of the questions they had studied in the form of puzzles, the answers to same were musical terms or meanings. Some of the questions were as follows: 1. I am placing a tone. 2. My that wind goes right through me. 3. Isn't it Bright? 4. How smoothly the swan glides. 5. They cut the time at the packing house. 6. I am so sad. 7. I am just walking along. 8. Be steadfast and immovable. 9. See that Sign? Well, go back to it. 10. This is the end of a perfect day. How many can you answer? Ask Burleigh Music Club members. Any information concerning the club will be gladly given by writing "Burleigh Music Club," care Mrs. Emma Black, president, 2940 North Hallock street, or writing or calling Mrs. Gertrude E.

He has, as his assistant, Dr. J. Franklin Wilson, who is on a salary Montgomery, Ala.—"If you want to see the devil run, just get you a Gospel gun." I used to hear the old saints say that when I was a boy, and these words have followed me up to this date, but I am about to understand the meaning of them, and I have been made to sing and shout, and I am so happy I hardly know what to do. I have been hearing about the various churches, and the number has been increasing right along, until now it is hard to tell just what you are meeting. The Lord has been very busy making denominations of late years, and now some of them are about to get together and become one great Christian body to fight sin and the devil, and I am told that they may rout him out of Hades. I hope they will keep him confined there just a little longer. --- Page Two. THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE THOMAS KENNEDY, Editor and Prop. Thos. Knapper Associate Editor MBS. M. C. MATTHEW8.

CITIZENS' FORUM Such a large audience assembled at the Forum, February 12. until many were compelled to find seats in the balcony. President Davis presided. After a sacred chorus, the invocation was given by Mrs. B. S. Jones. Quotations were led by Mrs. J. H. Clayborne. Many ladies and others gave quotations in praise of women as it was Women's Day. Some gave quotations from Abraham Lincoln as it was his birthday, but Mrs. M. C. Matthews gave an original poetical quotation on Lincoln and Women's Day. Mrs. I. Thomas gave good current events. Mrs. Davidson's solo was good. Then came good talks on Women's Clubs as follows: Parent-Teachers' Federation. Mrs. John Hodge; Douglass P. T. A., Mrs. P. Freeman; Home Beautiful, Mrs. Tillery; Alpha, Mrs. Herndon; Intli-gensia, Mrs. F. D. Booker; Y. W. C. A., Mrs. Nellie Wilson; Pleasure Seekers. Mrs. Crump; Paramount Club. Miss Black; Fern Leaf, Mrs. A. Boone. The piano duet by Misses E. Neely and S. Miller was a classic and was encored. Miss Olive Henderson introduced the main speaker in a few well chosen words. The address by Mrs. Childs was very fine, practical and an incentive to mothers to teach children common sense, morals and Christianity. She is a member of the State Welfare Board and president of the State Federation of Women's Clubs. Her parting plea was "that our race do as the Caucasian race; that is do all we can to 'get back to God,' and teach others to do so." She received a prolonged applause. Mrs. A. Allsbrook read a good critic's report. Mrs. Clara Adams, president of the Kansas City, Mo., Federation, was introduced and made remarks. Ladies took up a collection of $7. President Davis presides pleasantly. Sunday, February 19, another fine program will be rendered and we think the Forum orchestra will surely be present. Notes on Forum Mrs. Tillie Moss sang a nice solo at a previous Forum meeting and was accompanied by Mrs. E. Buckner. Original Quotation Lincoln and Women's Day by Mrs. M. C. Matthews, first president of the City Federation and author of the prize song of the State Federation: On this day I'd not be content, Unless I'd something to say, About our sixteenth president, Who was born on this day. Dear Lincoln with a single stroke Set our forefathers free, From underneath the tyrants' That we this day might see: Let's cheer the Emancipator And with our women pay Thanks to our great Creator For this great Women's Day.

CHURCH NEWS While the Sabbath day was cold and chilly, it did not keep the worshippers from the house of prayer. A large and appreciative congregation was present to hear the first sermon of Rev. J. F. Griffin, of the series of four sermons he is to deliver His subject was "Father's Home," which in a plain, strong Gospel way compared our earthly parents' home with the home of our Heavenly Father. The sermon was eloquent, logical and helpful. The second sermon of the series will be this Sunday, subject: "Departure to a Far Country." These sermons, as the series of some weeks ago preached by this noted divine, are reaching a class of our community life that has never been reached before. A number of converts was the result of the first series of sermons and last Sunday's sermon brought' two into the fold and others of the faith joined the church of their choice. The pastor preached another spiritual sermon at the evening service. The choir rendered some beautiful anthems at morning service. Mr. Alexander Gatewood, is now in charge of the senior choir and greater things are in store for those who enjoy good music. The Junior choir, under the supervision of Prof. Wise, who furnishes the music at the evening service, always renders soul-stirring music. The Friday night class meetings are being well attended and spiritual blessings are being received by those who come. Parents send your children to Sabbath school and the Junior Endeavor League.

CO-OPERATION SAVES A FORTUNE FOR FARMERS Hard times on the farm has done more to promote co-operation than all the talking in the country. For more who used to "get along well enough" by themselves are now anxious to co-operate with their neighbors. For the saving of a thousand dollars in marketing crops of buying supplies may now mean all the difference between bankruptcy and solvency. The farmers of Oklahoma have found that co-operation pays. They saved $20,000 last year on purchasing a million pounds of binding twine through their Farmers' Exchange. They bought co-operatively over 400 cars of coal at a saving of $3 a ten. The 15,000 bushels of seed potatoes they needed cost them $22,500 less than the best price from private dealers and a further saving of $16,-125 was made on 43 cars of eating potatoes, purchased this fall. In addition, the farmers who marketed their peach crop co-operatively through the Exchange receive $1 a bushel more than the price paid by local buyers. Profiting by this example and success elsewhere, the cotton farmers of Oklahoma are now forming a co-operative association to market their crop without the aid of brokers, speculators and other middlemen. HOW THEY DID IT How did we do it? Simply by going without everything we needed. When I first married my salary was $30 a month. My mother-in-law who lived with us, decided to save enough out of my salary to build us a home. When the cellar was finished I became ill and lost-my position and had to mortgage the cellar to make my first payment. Although we went without food for 30 days the first year, we never missed a monthly payment. The taxes interest on mortgage and monthly payment on house were now three times the amount of my earnings. However, by dispensing with the service of a doctor, we lost our father and mother-in-law which so reduced our expenses that we were able to pay for th parlor floor and windows. In 10 years seven of our nine children died, possibly owing to our diet of excelsior and prunes. I only mention these little things to show how we were helped in saving up for a home. I wore the same overcoat for 15 years and was then able to build the front porch, which you see at the right of the front door. Now, at the age of 87, my wife and I feel sure we can own our comfortable little home in about ten years and live a few weeks to enjoy it.—Life. JOHN H. BURKE TO THE CRAFTS OF THE YORK RITE MASONS I wish to call the attention of all Worshipful Masters and members of the F. and A. A. York Masons of Kansas and Jurisdiction, that the 1920 Communication held at Manhattan, Kansas, that the Kansas City (Kansas) Advocate was adopted as our official organ. It was also unanimously carried in open session that all lodges in the jurisdiction were to subscribe for The Advocate, so at least the lodge might be informed from time to time of the general workings of the jurisdiction. Now, we understand a number of lodges throughout the jurisdiction has not compiled with the ruling of this Grand Boly. We need this organ and its editor has ben giving us regularly a splendid service and plenty of it; so we must not and can not afford to allow ourselves to withhold our support to our only organ. Let every Worshipful Master see to it, at once, that their subscription is sent in for 1922. Send money order or express order of $1.50 to The Kansas City Advocate, 831 Nebraska avenue. Kansas City, Kansas, or to the editor, Thos Kennedy. Note: Also have as many of the members as possible to send in their subscriptions, as this publication is worthy of their patronage from a general news point, besides its worth to our jurisdiction.

Now if you will couple with all the bishops all the bishops the hunlreds of men who are anxious to be bishops and de- clare the Lord has called them to be, but they seem to be just a little ahead of the Lord, but they are ready to serve, and will serve if they can just get the Lord to tell the voters, that He has called them to be bishozs, general officers and the like. But I am not going to meddle with God’s business, und you will excuse me, please. There were brains enough Gown here this week to float the city of New York, and I am hiera to tell you that them men rade some real speeches. I heard them all, and I just shouted when some of them were speaking. I heard‘ some of them were speaking. | heard some one speaking of me say, “I think the fool is crazy, und should be locked up.” Go back sixty years ago, jook at our condition then, and see where we are today, and I think you would just shout your fool brains out as I was about to do. But, honey, let me tell you we have some smart men in this country, some of them as smart as Woodrow Wilson. There were many men here from Texas. The Rev. Dr. E. J. Howard, of Texas, shook my Vily black hand, and then came xlong Rev. G. B. Young, and Rev. S. D. Butler, and Rev. H. A. Carr, all have been stung by that buzs:ing bishop bee, and they have bad cases, and I will ‘tell you the results if I am here. I have only mentioned a-few of the men, for there are others who were not present, but they ure buzzing just the same. Rev. S. J. Johnson, who is now men- tioned for successor to Dr. B. ¥. Watson, whose health is not so good, but who will retire af- ter the next general conference so as to live all the longer. Just $o much work can a man do, and if he tries to.go over that nature will demand its toll, and you must settle up whether you want to or not. I found some of them bishops us angry as a wet hen, and they Yad made up their minds that it was time to do something. Jva T. Bryant had been writing ‘and had said something that would have been unsaid for ull concerned in this saying they felt that Secretary Bryant had reflected on all bishops of the race, and I was surprised when I heard Bishop Smith yead a document which was ar apology for what the secretary: treasurer had said. He made -this to the other bishops. + Now then you want to know ‘what happened. Well, them bishops just called Secretary- ‘Treasurer Bryant before then ‘and I am told that after put. ting to him a direct questior oncerning the article démand ‘ed that he resign, and Mr. Bry ‘ant, without saying a word walked out of the room. I hav. ‘been informed that he now ha: ‘on, his fighting gloves, and i: going to contend to the last for wh3t he conceives to be hi: agate: - it was a great big meeting snd big things were accom plished if you will just take th time to find.out. I will go o +o: other amportant events When I wrote to'you that othe letter I was in Memphis, but I got away from there and went down to Birmingham, where I found a representative of Tug- gle Institute awaiting my ar- rival, and got in a car which toted me down to see Prof. Glover ,and then we were off to the school. Mrs. Tuggle met me with that broad smile and declared that she was glad to see me. I felt good, for Mrs. Tuggle is one of the greatest women in this country, and a leader among women. She has dedicated her life to the un- fortunate boys and girls— those that no one wants to bother with them. She takes them and moylds them over again. She is a wonderful character, and I was delighted to be in her home and see the good things she is doing here in town. After sending into my eter- nity some fine chicken, well cooked, J went over and met the student body—a fine set of young people. I wish you could fiust drop down and look at them and see what this unsel- fish woman is doing for her people and you will agree at once with. me that she is one of ihe greatest women of the age. Modest. intelligent, and just a leader of women, and she is also a leader in thought. I think I will have to bring this letter to a stan. My next one will be from Florida.. Look cut for it, for it is coming. I am going to spend just a little time with Bishop John Hurst and others. John H. Murphy is down here. ia J. O.
