WOMEN'S IMPROVEMENT
CLUB ORGANIZED
An organization known as The Women's Improvement club, was organized at the home of Mrs. Edward Lyles, 810 Nebraska avenue, Thursday evening, June 22nd. It was largely attended by the fair sex from almost every portion of the city. The cash prize, which was offered for the lady bringing in the largest number of members, was awarded to Mrs. Anna Scruggs of the Second Ward. The club's object is to get the women in closer touch with each other from all over the city, that they might discuss civic affairs and have a better understanding when it comes time to take action on things for the best interest of our racial group. This club is destined to be a great help in our city and bring about certain conditions that have been needed. After the organization ice cream and soda pop were abundatly served. The following officers were elected:
Mrs. Julia Rhodes, president; Mrs. Juanita Jones, secretary; Mrs. Hattie Berry, treasurer.

WELFARE LEAGUE
HAD BIG MEETING
The Welfare League, a political organization of the Second Ward, held a rousing meeting Monday night at C. C. Cannon's place, 1949 North Third street, It was an open air meeting and all the candidates were given an opportunity to speak. Among the many who spoke was the editor of The Advocate, Thomas Kennedy, who is a candidate for County Commissioner for the Second District. His talk stood out for justice and equal opportunity for the race and stated, although it was a Republican primary, candidates of the other race for this office had made it a race issue, which was un-American. Mr. Kennedy said further that as this is true he was looking to the honesty and race loyalty of his own people to the success of his election, of wheih he was confident.
Mr. E. E. Scruggs is president of this club, who has handled it for a number of years and always gives a fine reception to the candidates and public. Ice cream and pop was served free to all. Mr. J. L. Cobb, chairman, showed himself courteous to all.

ADVOCATE
COMING OF DR. VASS TO CITY OFFERS TREAT TO CHRISTIAN WORKERS
The coming of Dr. S.N. Vass, noted Bible specialist of national reputation, to Kansas City through the efforts of the Baptist Young People's Union of the First Baptist church offers a rare opportunity to Christian workers and those interested in Bible study of all denominations. It is said that Dr. Vass's method of handling and interpreting the Bible is unique and unlike all others, and to hear means to see more in the Bible than ever before, and to lead to a deeper interest in Book. In his course of ten Bible lectures, one at 11 a. m. and the other at 8 p. m., sharp, he will impart such a knowledge of the Bible as will be impossible to secure except in attendance upon his lectures, if we may judge by the unanimous testimony of the thousands who have heard him in all parts of the country during the quarter of a century he has devoted himself to this work.
In addition to his unique and high class work in the Bible, Dr. Vass delivers each evening at 7 o'clock a special lecture on the study of the human mind in its relations to the science of teaching. This work he makes the basis of help to the Baptist Young People workers Sunday school officers and teachers, and general Christian workers. Do not fail to attend these lectures at the First Baptist church, corner Fifth street and Nebraska avenue, beginning Monday evening at 7 o'clock, July 3. It matters not what your denomination may be, arrange to make a sacrifice and attend each lecture and receive a Chautauqua certificate.

GARDEN TEA PARTY
The largest society event of the summer was the garden tea party given Wednesday, June 21st, at Mrs. William Rice's residence 835 Nebraska avenue, complimentary to Mrs. J. A. Greene, of Chicago; Mrs. E. D. Bowren, of Peru, Ind.; Mrs. C. C. Tanner, of Chicago; Miss Dorothy Page, of Topeka; Mrs. J. C. Price, of Eldorado, and Miss Wilkins, of Peru, Ind. The hostesses who gave it were Mrs. Marion Cotten, Miss L. J. Harlan, Mesdames W. Hâtley, B. R. Isaacs, O. B. Johnson, G. Plummer, Wm. Rice, J. W. Scott, J. S. Thomas, S. H. Thompson and Miss O. A. Henderson. The pretty colonial residence was a scene of joy from 3 to 8 p. m. The ladies in their Parisian costumes, among the white hydrangeas and other flowers on the lawn, made it a very pretty garden party. They enjoyed the cool breezes, and made natural music with their conversation and greetings. The guests were in turn escorted into the colonial dining room, where they were served to lovely refreshments of cheese straws, iced tea, Philadelphia sherbet, wafers, cake, etc. More than 250 ladies enjoyed this delightful tea party and the hostesses assisted in serving them and were rewarded with praise. The colors, white and yellow, were carried out in the menu and on the printed souvenir cards which were given to each guest. Some of the out of town ladies were: Mrs. Baird, Miss Brownlee Baird, Mesdames Ada Montgomery, Jackson, Clara Coffee, Wilson, and Miss Wilson, Rev. and Mrs. Coleman, Mesdames John Manley, Martin, Barton., Clara Miller, J. S. Harris, Dr. Perry, Miss Nellie Reeves and many others of Kansas City, Mo., whose names we did not get.

THE NATIONAL BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS AND B. Y. P. U. CONVENTION HELD IN NEW ORLEANS BROUGHT TOGETHER MANY NOTABLES
New Orleans, La.—I wrote you last week from Texas, and now I am writing to you this week from down here in New Orleans, and it has been a great week with me, and I desire to get upon my knees and thank God for this week which has been so full of information and advice.
I was up yonder in the state of Texas and at the leading city, Austin, and you will believe me when I tell you I had a great big time there. I was the guest of Dr. S. D. Butler, who wants to be one of the bishops in his church, and from there, I went over to see Dr. J. E. Knox, pastor of the First Baptist church, and a strong man.
It has been a long time since I told you anything about him. He is one of the noted educators of the Baptists of this country. He was at one time connected with the Arkansas Baptist college, and left there to become president of a college in Brinkley, Ark., where he made a wonderful record, and from there right into Texas, where he put state missions on the map as no other man had ever done, and then he resigned to take up other work at which he made a success. I mean by other work that he went into the pastorate in Houston, and from there to Austin, where he is doing a great big work.
I had the pleasure of meeting Prof. Randolph, in Austin, and I am sure that you would be interested in him, because he is now the president of Cliflin university in South Carolina, a position which has been held by a man of the other race variety for over fifty years. I am here to tell you that he is going to make good, and if you want to drop him a line of encouragement, send it to Samuel Houston College, Austin, Texas, and he will get it there. He is now winding up his work there, getting ready to move to the State of Tillman.
Well, I spent all day Sunday in Austin, and left Sunday night for Crowley, La., where I spent Monday, and was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. McClung. I am sure you would be delighted to know that Mr. McClung holds an important position as clerk in a large rice plant, and he is a real clerk and not lackey. I have seen him in his position, and I just had to shout. In this place he has the confidence of the people, and he is highly respected by the citizens. I know of no man who holds a higher position in a plant operated by millionaires. Well, McClung has wen his position in this country, and I am proud of him. His place should inspire others to prepare.
I would just mention Mrs. Blanche McClung, the wife of her husband, and a refined cultured woman, who is devoting her life working for the uplift of her people. She comes from Alabama, and I am sure that the people of Alabama are proud of her. I had the pleasure of meeting the people of Crowley, and made a speech to them, and they clapped their hands while I was talking, and this causes

me to think that I must be getting to be some speech maker, and if I am sure that you are proud of me, and I am proud of you. Pray for me that I may be something in this world before I die and go to my home to be with Jesus and so many friends who have gone there, and I am sure that I have some friends who have gone to the other place.
Off from Crowley, to New Orleans, reaching here on Tuesday morning, I found the Rev. Edward Wittenburg at the stable with his own automobile car carriage awaiting to tote me to his quarters, or to the place where he had provided for me to stay, as he did not have room in his own house for me. You see they have right at home now seven children, but he had a fine room for me, and right across the street from his home, and I was booked to get my eats at his home.
Reaching his home, I found his wife, with a broad smile on her face, telling me by the very expression that she was glad to have me She is a native of the state, but I am not prepared to say whether or not she is Frenchie, or whether Polly and Frances or not, for I did not know enough to find out myself, and I would not ask her. I met all the children, and they bade welcome to me, because they considered me to be a friend-to "Daddy." Everyone of them were ready to serve me.
Here is a family that is truly a family, and when you touch one you touch all, and it seems that when one is hurt and cries all the others get in one of the crying spells. Such is life in a busy city like this. They are happy, and are looking forward to the time when the general conference will make "Dad" a Bishop, and he is a deserving man. I shall have more to say about him later.
I am here attending a great meeting, the National Baptist Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. Congress, and you may put it down that I told you that the young people were here and in large numbers at that—I consider that it was the number that John saw, and then there were some that John did not see, and some that I have never seen before. I had the pleasure of seeing some of the brainy young people of the Baptist church, and of the whole race. Then I met some experts in Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. work, and that was worth something, and it is hard to tell what it will not be before I am through with this world.
The Congress was presided over by the Rev. Dr. D. V. Cannon, of Atlanta, Ga., who is a progressive and aggressive educated minister of the Baptist faith, and a man who is a leader of young people. I wish you could have heard his address, and then heard him when he pulled off his coat and rolled up his sleeves so to speak and went straight after the dancers, the card players and other little no-harm, life-destroying games. He showed a deep interest in the young peo(Concluded on Fourth Page).

CHURCH NEWS
A fine audience was in attendance Sunday morning, who went away well paid for coming to the house of the Lord. Rev. J. F. Griffin, pastor, delivered the message and as usual never fails to satisfy his hearers. Dr. Griffin has been here five years and his sermons are as fresh to the people today as his first one delivered in First church. The Reverend Mr. Parker, pastor of the C. M. E. church, at Parksville, Mo., delivered a most excellent sermon at the evening service and was greatly enjoyed by a nice audience. Dr. Parker worshipped all day at First church, it being his daughter's, Mrs. A. J. Bouldin's church. While the superintendent and assistant superintendent is away, there is no less in attendance and spirit in the school. Rev. Griffin is in charge, who can always make it interesting and profitable to those who attend.
This Friday night, is monthly love feast and Sunday is monthly communion. Rev. Griffin held quarterly meeting, at] the Armstrong Mission Sunday afternoon. Rev. Miller is pastor of this church. The rally is moving along nicely and every captain expects to bring in on the Fourth Sunday in July their full quota. Stay by your church.

Among the distinguished visitors present the following addressed the school: Dr. Stokes of Pratt City, Kansas, and pastor Second Baptist church there; Mrs. Cook and Buckner, delegates to the International Sunday School Convention, from Pratt City; Mrs. S.

eases. Man is a subject of moral disease. The common name of this disease can be more direful as sin affects the soul as well as the body. Sin is old and universal, so it affected the Israelites in ancient days as it affects this nation today. No need of being sick. For there is balm in Gilead. Jesus can and will heal all those who wills to be healed. New theories may sound well, but the only infallible cure is "You must be born again." The medicine in the dispensary of Jesus Christ to make you whole, every whit. In the absence of Prof. Reynolds Madame Georgia Gorham-Barlow is playing and directing the choir. She is truly an artist of rare ability and is putting pep into the musical renditions. Mrs. Josephine Strong of the Foreign Mission Board, a native South American, made a short talk, and a touching appeal was made for foreign missions, a liberal offering was given for the work.
The B. Y. P. U. held an interesting meeting and every effort is being put forth for a splendid meeting in the Bible Institute and we cordially invite every one to enjoy the sessions without money or price. The crowning feature will be the Rainbow banquet on July 20. Secure your plate now for it will be worth while. The evening service was a woth while one for Rev. Stokes preached a splendid sermon from Luke 2-52. Subject, "A Symmetrical Life." Four examples were given: The increase in wisdom, the mental, the inner ease in statue, the physical, the favor of God, the spiritual and man, the social.
A welcome awaits all who attend our services.

Services at First Baptist church were conducted by the pastor, Rev. A. C. Kyles, who preached in the morning from II Tim. 2-75, He used as a subject, "Be a Worker for Jesus."

Promptly at 3 o'clock p. m., Grandview Lodge No. 75, F. & A. A. Y.

W. M., to listen to the consoling words of the Psalms of David, which was very masterfully preached by Rev. T. A. Harris, the Past Master of the Lodge. The W. M., after he had seated the lodge of Master Masons and Heroines of Jericho, turned over his authority to conduct the exercises to Rev. W. E. Steward, who was chosen by the lodge as master of ceremonies.
The Herones of Jericho with their very efficient M. A. W. M. very fittingly dressed for the occasion, added zest to the ceremonies, music for devotion being furnished by the A. M. E. choir, who so willingly consented to serve. A liberal offering, $26.000, was taken in.

ple of his own race, and then stepped over into my race and articulated a few things. It was a great big meeting; there were great big men from everywhere.
I wish you could have been here to have seen for yourself, but then I will not take up your time in this matter now, but will move along. Dr. W. H. Jernagin, president of the National Race Congress of America, and a strong advocate for the rights of his people, was here. He is the vicepresident, and a great leader. He was indeed active in the Congress, and then he had a conference.
Speaking of conference, right here in New Orleans, right in the South, there was an important meeting held on race matters, and I am here to tell you that they condemned in the strongest language lynchng, mob violence, and spoke right up like men, and what they had to say was published in the daily paper.
Hen. S. W. Green, one of the strongest men in this country, and a leader of men, was here, and he delivered a strong conservative address. He believes that the Negro should put up his cash and not so much gas, and go into the courts, in the legislative halls, and get what is coming to him. If we don't put up a little more cash and less gas and put a check to lawlessness, we are going to be in a heluva fix right here at home. "Mister, please give me a chance," is not going to do the work. Chances belong only to those who take them, for they are scattered around over this country for whosoever will.
I had as my room mate, during the session, Rev. James W. Gibson, a missionary from Kentucky—in fact he is the superintendent of missions for the Baptists of the state, and I am told that he is a real good one. I was glad to have him in the folding room next to me, for he did all the praying, and honey, let me tell you he is one more praying baby, and this accounts for his success. He knows how to talk to the Lord in the latest style, and I believe his prayers reach the throne.
But now, I desire to call your attention to a few things that are going to happen this year. The National Negro Business League will meet in August at Norfolk, Va. The National Al-

Miss Hallie Quinn Brown is the president, but I don't know the official name of it. The National Baptist convention will meet in Los Angeles, California, next September, and the B. M. C. will meet in Cleveland, Ohio, in September. There are other meetings, and I will call your attention to them from time to time. If I do not say as much as you desire to have me say, then you will forgive me I am sure.
God bless you. I am delighted to be able to say a word or two to you at this time. I will have to bring this letter to a stop.
METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES
Of the large congregation which attended church, many were highly pleased with Dr. Burdette's morning sermon. Many gave vent to the Holy Spirit. His subject was "The Name of Jesus." He showed plainly that the Name suggests humility, Calvary, sacrifice, unity, etc., and best of all it stands for love. Assistant Pastor Royston led "How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds," and the choir sang, "Take the Name of Jesus With You." At 2 p. m., the congregation extended into the balcony to attend the funeral of Trustee J. T. Roberts. Dr. Holmes preached and Mrs. Holmes sang a solo. Prudence Masonic Lodge had charge of the body and resolutions were read from the church, the Sewing Circle and the Lodge. Brother Roberts died in the full triumph of faith and the church members and his host of friends will miss him greatly. At 8 p. m., Dr. Burdette preached from Egh. 2:19 on "Christian Citizenship." A large collection was taken up during the day for Mrs. J. T. Roberts, as a testimonial of esteem for her.
Friday (tonight) is church meeting. All members should come as it is said. "a new pastor will be called." Next Sunday morning, July 2, some noted preacher will preach. Perhaps Dr. Prince of St. Joseph, will preach if they can get wrd to him in time. Come to Metropolitan sure every Sunday. Assstant Pastor Royston is keeping things running smoothly. God will
