KANSAS Durham, N. C., Institution, Manager by Race Men, Has Phenomenal Business Growth Durham, N. C.—I have been looking into a new world and I have been seeing things and I am now saying Glory to God in the highest, and you may be able some day to join with me in all the good things the Lord is doing for us, and you will be proud that you were born on the dark of the moon and got some of the dark goods mixed in you. I am proud of the wonderful progress we are making. I want to direct your attention to something new under the sun, and indeed a strong thing at that. It is the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., and I am right in the office of the company, writing this letter and shouting all the same time. I have never seen anything like I am seeing here, a seventy building, from the ground up, owned by the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, and the second floor is occupied by this company I have been telling you about. But let me tell you about this Bankers' Fire Insurance Company, at whose head is Prof. W. G. Pearson, of this place. It was organized for the purpose of seeing to it that if you hold a policy and your house catches on fire and burns they will see that you get the amount for which you are insured to start another one and if it be enough to put you up a full house, up it goes. We have not been in this kind of business very long because we don't like fire and have been trying to shun it, and if this company could insure a fellow against hell fire, then the sinners would tell the devil to shoot for they had insurance Then this would be a heluva world and the people would just go wild. This company has a capital stock of $150,000 and it is all paid in, and they have written up over three million dollars worth of business since the project was launched and the people began to discover the destroyer of human life. But what has that to do about it? You will see when you think of your own race being in position to bring out a thing and then in less than two years give it over three million dollars worth of business. That is going some and you will agree with me about this. This is done by members of my race. The officers of the company are W. G. Pearson, president; C. C. Spaulding, first vice-president; A. M. Moore, second vice-president; W. Gomez, secretary; M. A. Goins, assistant secretary; J. M. Avery, treasurer; and with A. J. Strong, E. R. Merrick and R. L. McDonald, constitute the executive committee. Then there are directors and they have as their names W. G. Pearson, C. C. Spaulding, A. M. Moore, J. M. Avery, B. W. Smith, T. J. Thompson, J. A. Tansley, W. Gomez, E. R. Merrick, Ira T. Bryant, R. L. McDougald. A.J. Strong, G. A. Edwards., W. M. Rich, J. C. Scarborough, J. G. Blanton, J. H. Ridley, M. C. Clark. You will find in the office a busy set of young people. Clerks and stenographers, bookkeepers, and any other people making good. It would do your very soul good to come in touch with these young people and with these busienss people. You would be glad that you are a member of the race. You note that I have been going some this summer and I You note that I have been going some this summer and I (Continued on Page 4) -SUBSCRIPTION PRICE TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50 The Peoples' Carpet, Rug, Overall and Shirt Manufacturing and Mercantile Company, at 52 North James street, made its initial opening Monday night to throngs of people. Crowds were going and coming from early to late in the evening to view the new plant. It is located in a large building on the ground floor and is equipped with the latest machinery for the completion of all the factory is to put on the market. Music entertained the sightseers and souvenirs were given to each visitor. Mr. W. G. Banks, the promoter and general manager, carried his usual smile for everybody and assisted by his stenographer, Miss Stella Henderson, showed their guests through the plant and the operation cf the various machines. Everything is in order for business and in a few days this new business will have every whell buzzing. The Missionary Society of the C. M. E. church will give a picnic Thursday afterncon, August 9, at the park, Tenth street and Nebraska avenue. Refreshments of all kinds. Mrs. Gates, of Lincoln, Neb., is here visiting Ms. A. Pleasant on North Sixth street. THE KAW VALLEY The Kaw Valley District Association convened at Pleasant Green church and opened formally Monday evening. The B. Y. P. U. did good work all day Tuesday and closed Tuesday night after rendering a good program with Metropolitan B. Y. P. U. demonstrating a model B. Y. P. U. Miss Flossie Sykes rendered the cation she had when she graduated and was given an ovation. King Solomon choir sang two pretty anthems and after a sermon the same officers were re-elected for the ensuing year. Thursday was Women's Day and we will speak more of it later. Friday the men took hold and continued until Saturday. We will give more about it next week. Rev. Young is the moderator and Miss Bradshaw cf Topeka is B. Y. P. U. president.

ENTERTAIN FOR NIECE Mrs. Pearl Holder, 2058 North Sixth street, and Mrs. S. E. Holiday, 343 Lafayete avenue, entertained for their niece and nephew, Gladys and S. E. Hcpson, from La Junta, Colo., July 28. At 3 p. m., children began to arrive and kept coming until fifty-seven had gathered on the lawn, where they resembled a huge bouquet of flowers. At 4:30 p. m., a fine program was tendered by some of the children were served to ice cream and cake. Prof. and Mrs. Watkins and children of Kansas City, Mo., came over in their car and several other parents were present. All departed at a late hour expressing an enjoyable time. The funny part of it is that a mere sucker can locate a swindler when the most skilled detectives are baffled. Automobiles wouldn't be dangerous if the horse power of the engine was proportioned to the horse sense of the driver. You mustn't believe all that is written about the wicked movies. So many writers have had scenarios rejected. CITY KNIGHTS PYTHIAS CLOSE 28TH SESSION BY ELECTION The twenty-eighth annual grand session of the Knights of Pythias, Sunflower Grand Lodge, held in Junction City July 25-26-27, closed one of its greatest meetings Thursday night at Community building, with prize contest drill and military ball. The session was well attended of the two boides, Dr. S. H. Thompson, Grand Chancellor, presided over Sunflower Grand Lodge, and Mrs. Norene Davis, Grand Worthy Councillor, over the Grand Court of Calanthe. This Grand Jurisdiction is proud of both of these efficient officers, and their administrations have brought this fraternal organization up to a healthy condition, each showing their treasuries in a most prosperous condition, with all claims paid. The annual addresses of the Grand Chancellor and Grand Worthy Councillor were of great satisfaction to their respective representatives and were recommended to be printed in circular form and sent out to all lodges. Camp Trammel The Uniform Department under command of Brigadier General Thomas Kennedy Kansas City Kansas; Col.

The boys, under the entertainment of Pythagoris Company, Capt. Wm. Hurd, of Junction City, entertained the visiting companies in regular camp style, having everything in readiness when the first company arrived. Capt. Hurd, his officers and Sir Knights were ever ready and willing to give service to their guests at any and all times. The officers and enlisted Sir Knights' mess was up to every requirement, with plenty of good eats. Tents, cots and mess outfit were furnished from Fort Riley of which this company is mostly out of. Col. Carroll was in charge of all maneuvers and prize contest drills. The parade was one of the most magnificent in the history of Sunflower Grand Lodge and took place Thursday afternoon. A large number of horses were sent down from Fort Riley, through Sergeant Thos. Smith, the Chancellor Commander of Defense Lodge No. 38, for all officers and the parade was led by the colored band from the post.

Reynolds) Having made an extensive tour of Eastern and Southern states visiting friends and seeing many things of interest I am sending a short resume of my trip. In Chicago the Liberty Life Insurance headquarters are elegant; a credit to Chicago and the race. It furnishes employment to fifty or more persons of our racial group. I visited the Chicago Defender's office and printing plant. I do not hesitate to say the printing plant is equal to any plant of the white race in Kansas City. Our race is forging steadily to the front. The Vincinnes hotel is unquestionably the finest hotel owned and controlled by our race in this country and is doing a lucrative business. In company with y friend, Prof. Hodge, I attended the N. A. A. C. P. annual meeting in Newark, N. J. The meetings were very interesting and I'm sure much good will follow. I was programmed and sang the night Congressman Dyer spoke. Dr. Thomas Wright has a fine sanitarium with modern improvements here and is well patronized. Newark boasts of "something new under the sun." A colored golf club with club house and golf course. It is largely patronized. To my knowledge it is the only one in this country owned by our people. The N. A. A. C. P. delegates, visitors and friends were given a trip up the Hudson. The interesting points visited, Ellis Island, Statute of Liberty and the beautiful scenery made it a very delightful and enjoyable trip. In New York the portion known as Harlem our group has taken up a square mile and it is said one hundred and fifty thousand colored people live in that radius. They are engaged in all kinds of business. The Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. buildings are large and commodious. They are always full. They care for a number of students who attend Columbia University. The Bishoy's Council of the A. M. E. church was in session and I planned to attend, but was too late. They were on their pleasure trip the day I went to look in on them. The art museum is the finest in the country. I spent two and a half days and truly I could not begin to tell of the many wonderful things seen. I spent most of my time in the art department among the paintings of the old masters. On to Philadelphia, where I visited relatives, first cousins whom I had never seen. Mr. Marquess, a former principal of Summer High school and his family. A very enjoyable time was spent in Washington, D. C., the nation's capital was visited. I stopped with Prof. Hines and family, a former teacher of the commercial department of Western University. I visited the Lincoln Memorial, recently dedicated. A terse description: Passing through the long line of columns you enter the monument. A reverential air prevades the place. Mr. Lincoln is in sitting posture. His Gettysburg speech is carved on the walls. The monument is situated on one of the highest points in Washington. A thing of beauty, truly a joy forever. The Fred Douglass home in Anacosta is also a place of great interest in the public eye just now. The driveway has just been completed the buildings renovated and the grounds (Continued on Page 3) THOMAS KENNEDY EDITOR AND PUBLISHER MISSOURI YORK RITE MASONS HOLD THANKS- GIVING SERVICE Saint Andrew Grand Lodge, in Missouri, Dr. N. S. Jenkins, Grand Master, held their annual sermon last Sunday at 2 p.m., at Vine Street Baptist church. This was their fifty-seventh annual exercises. The parade was led by the Masonic band of the Kansas side, and was one of the largest turnouts in the history of this Masonic body: The church was filled to its capacity of the craft and ladies' court, to hear the Rev. George McNeal of Pleasant Green Baptist church, deliver the sermon. His sermon was one of instruction and spiritual food for the vast throng present. A large representative body from the Kansas side of all the crafts and 'ladies' courts were present and helped to make the affair of greater magnitude. O. S. Jones of St. John No. 9, Kansas City, Kansas, acted as marsha' of the day. Grand Master Jenkins in his short administration, has brought the craft in Missouri to the front in York Rite Masonry. Grand Master J. A. Broadnax of King Solomon Grand Lodge of Kansas was an honored guest and made some timely remarks. The Rev. Dr. Lowe was master of ceremonies. COL. LITTLE CARRIES DISTRICT TWO TO ONE Col. Ed. C. Little, the present congressman of the Second District, and a citizen of this city, was renominated at Tuesday's primary 2 to 1 over his two opponents, Mr. Dyer and Mr. Harley. Col. Little ran strong in the city and Wyandotte county, receiving more votes than the other two candidates put together. IT IS ALL OVER NOW The Civic League will meet Tuesday evening the 8th at 8 o'clock, at its rooms over the Home Drug company. Among which will be the enrolling of new members and acquainting them with the objects and purposes of the League, as well also to take action on several important matters now in the hands of committees. Also, to put much other work into the hands of committees. All members are expected to be present. REV. J. F. GRIFFIN, President. I. F. BRADLEY, Acting Secretary. Mrs. Laura Smith, of Cleveland, Ohio, visited her sister, Mrs. Lottie Williams, 1309 N. Tenth street. Mrs. Smith is well known here and her many friends wish her a very pleasant stay. She will be here a month. Please Return Keys The gentleman who got the bunch of keys from the Diggs Junk Yard, 1012 North Third street a few days ago, will please return them at once, as they are needed badly and are valuable to us.—S. Diggs. Miss Stella Henderson of Indianapolis, Ind., is the book-keeper and stenographer for the People's Manufacturing Co. Little Arberenia Ponder, 830 Nebraska avenue, was ill several days this week, but is now much better. Backbone won't get you anywhere, however, if the knob at the top of it is made of the same material. A lost Chicago co-ed. was found after she got a job as a cook. She had a curious way of avoiding the police. MIDNIGHT VISITS GRAND SESSION OF THE K. OF P.S Meets Many Men and Women of the Race Who Are Doing Things for the People of Kansas Kansas City, Missouri.—This world was never known to stand still and it seems that I am moving with it. It would appear that way, for you look where I was when I took my pen in hand to write that other letter and then see where I am when I write this one and note where I will be when I write the next one and you will exclaim, "This is one more moving man." I have been mingling with the people of the Sunflower Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias, and the Sunflower Grand Court of Calanthe, until I believe that I must be a little sunflower myself, and if I am I hope that you will not wear me on the lapel of your coat, but just get me in a button and put me there and I will shine for you. From North Carolina I dropped into Richmond, and found Hon. John Mitchell busy as busy could be getting ready to reopen the Mechanic Bank. Ere this it is open. Then I went to the office of Levi C. Brown; who is state manager for the National Insurance Company, with his headquarters in Washington, D. C. He is one more busy man, and believe me when I tell you he is doing business. Brown is just a business man, and a good one at that. I will have more to tell you about him later. He is my friend, and I am his friend. By Cincinnati, I saw Sir Joseph L. Jones, and then on to Chicago, where I just spent one night, found Mrs. Elvie L. Stewart busy getting ready to go to the Grand Chapter of the Order of Eastern Star, and I spent some little time with Charles Stewart, Jr., and left that same morning for Kansas City, reaching there at night, I spent it at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clay, 2214 Woodland avenue. I called up over the 'hello box' and found that Mrs. Norene Davis, with three fried chickens, had gone on to the city of Junction. Monday morning I got myself together, called up over the same box, and soon Rev. B. G. Dawson, D.D., pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church, was right there with his automobile car carriage ready to tote me anywhere I desired to go. He toted me down to the stable, where my trunks were, then over to Editor Kennedy, then back to the stable where I got on to the Rock Island wagon for White City, then over to Junction City, where them gland bodies were to meet. I was met by a man dressed up like any regular Soldier Sergt. Wilson, and he toted me in one of them automobile cars to headquarters, where I was what they called assigned out to my stopping place. I was sent to one place where the lady was not pleased with my looks, so they sent me to the home of Mr. and Mrs. S. K. Smith, where I was made welcome. Mr. Smith is the head cook and the leading hotel in town and he has a fine home. I was given a whole room all by my lonely. Now let us come to it. They were looking for me in town, for Mrs. Norene Davis had notified them that they had invited me to come down. The committee was fine, and I thank Mrs. Porter, who was the chief in the assigning business. They had something at that fine building known as Community Center that night and I met some people.

METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES The publicity committee having advertised well on the bulletin boards, there was a large assemblage at this church to worship the Lord. Dr. Joseph T. Hill, of Hot Springs, Ark., preached from Matt. 26:6.14, where Mary anointed Jesus' feet. His subject was "Now is the accepted time." He portrayed it so beautifully that many made a public demonstration of the Spirit. He said in part: "Opportunities come and we grasp them. Man is the top of God's creation and should see after all of God's creatures." He urged the young people to turn over a new leaf and lead real Christian lives. Said our race's captivity has not begun yet, unless we turn back to God. He urged sinners to accept and follow Christ as "now is the accepted time." It was one of the greatest and most instructive sermons the writer has heard. He ended with a prayer, and Assistant Pastor Royston led the congregation in singing, "Father. I Stretch My Hand Co Thee." Dr. Royston praised the message highly. The choir, with Mts. I. Wood at the organ, sang "Christ receiveth sinful men," and a convert and others joined the church. At 8 p. m., Dr. Hill preached another powerful Gospel sermon to a larger congregation than the one at the morning service, and the people sanctioned him and praised his sermon. He praised us for having such a beautiful temple for God. He also informed us that he is enrcute to Winnipeg, Canada, to preach and hold meetings for a whit econgregation. Some more were added to our church at the close of his sermon. He certainly is a truly great preacher with Apostalic authority. Hope we will get him or Dr. Clark cr someone as intelligent and God-like. God is helping us through; we have as large crowds and as many joiners as some churches who have pastors. The Senior B. Y. P. U. is greatly encouraged and the Junior B. Y. P. U. is so lively they sing way past time of adjournment. The Sunday school is doing well and the Wednesday night prayer-meeting and preaching is doing fine. Assistant Pastor Royston is our leading delegate at the Kaw Valley Convention this week. Mrs. B. S. Jones with her Sunbeam Band exemplified the different phases of mission work on their day at the Kaw Valley Association on Thursday night at Pleasant Green church. Mr. Jefferson was reported ill; also Mrs. Grigshy. Next Sunday, August 6th, some renowned apostle will preach and there will also be baptizing at night. All are invited. Last year more than a million people visited the parks and monuments under the supervision of our national park service. In 1916 only 256,000 visitors went to the playgrounds provided by Uncle Sam for his big family. THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH --- THE REAL ESTATE BUREAU 529 STATE AVENUE.

It was enjoyed by every one. Dr. Stewart is a great preacher. Dean Alex Jones, who has been teaching in the Sumner School at Tuskegee, Alabama, the past six weeks and just returned, gave a fine talk at the evening service on conditions as he observed them in the South.

At 11 a. m., the pastor preached from Matt. 17-18. Subject; Jesus, Jesus Only. On the Mount of Transfiguration Jesus was first on scene, also last to depart. This makes us know no one can take the place of Jesus. Going up on the mount or going down on the other side, or on the summit as some of us are. Jesus, Jesus only is the best companion. For Jesus, Jesus only can set in order the chaos of this world. The church should hold up Jesus only, as the panacea for the world's ills. Let the church THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE be zealous in lifting up Jesus only. Other characters may be good, but Jesus only can reveal the Father. Jesus only can reveal the will of the Father or the love of God. How could we have known God's love only through Jesus. Jesus only can save from sin. Men have lived, are living still, who have wrought nobly and well. They die and others take their places. The work goes on. Thus we say no one is indispensable. But no one can or ever will be found to take the place of Jesus. On the mount, Moses went back, Elias went away, so in our sorrow our friends go away, but Jesus always remains. Many there are who might have died of a broken heart, when loved ones left us or great trouble befell us if it had not been for Jesus. Jesus only who could and did help and comfort. Jesus only can soften a dying bed. Friendshipschange, pass away, Jesus Jesus only will remain. Let us not divide our service, but give Jesus, Jesus only our undivided affection and service. B. Y. P. U. was interesting the lesson being led by Bother Mobiley. At 8 p. m., the pastor gave a splendid exegesis from 2nd Cor. 9:15. Subject, The Unspeakable Gift. The unspeakable gift was God's Son. We are stewards, and possessing this gift makes you want others to possess it. Unspeakable because it is best. It includes all other blessings and all other gifts it improves. It is a gift, not a loan. No interest. All is free forever. The Sunday school picnic at Swope Park was an enjoyable one. The little ones are happy. A welcome awaits all who attend our services.

Miss Edna Haynes Hair Dresser THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE (Continued from Page 1) can be made very beautiful, but the women of our race, especially the Federated Clubs, deserve credit for the splendid work accomplished. An industrial school for boys started a few years ago by a Miss Cook, is a remarkable institution of its kind. The work has been of such benefit that now the city of Washington employs three teachers to help train the boys. They are incorrigible boys, but instead of sending them to the workhouse they are sent to Miss Cook, who subdues and rules by love and kindness. The old homestead in Summit, Virginia, three miles out from town was the longed-for goal, and there my dear dad lives in the real country. I visited the country church. The scenes took me back to boyhood days when I used to ride bareback to Fredericksburg. Harper's Ferry and the summer school of the Y. M. C. A. at Storer college, was vsited. Charleston, W. Va., was also included in my itinerary, the home of Dr. S. H. and J. R. Thompson, mother, and a short visit to Pittsburgh ended my trip. Homeward I turned my face to greet wife and friends, after a most delightfully pleasant trip. But singing Home, home, sweet home; be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.

The next morning I met an- other big man in the order, the ‘head of the-soldiers, Brigadier General Thomas Kennedy, and fhe was dressed ta kill, so to speak. His clothes and his face were -ebout the same complex- jon, and he was dignity in the highest. He looked like one of them big War generals ready to march into battle in no man’s land. He shook my lily black hand and declared that he was glad tc see me, and wanted me to have a big time. He gave me fonty-two cents for the pur- pose'of having me paint the town red and treat she ladies. I was nct in‘the painting busi- ness. You should have seen General Kennedy ,and then looked at him in the parade on a big horse. He was just man- ners, and I was.proud to see the editor. . The meetings were patriotic filled with gocd things and say- ings. Mrs. Norene Davis is one more weman loved by all the women of Kansas. She is a friend maker and a leader of women. Kind and tender. it is an easy thing to tcuch her heart and open the flood gate. She fis so tendér thearted that she can’t killa bedbug, declar- ing it is his means of suporting himself and family. T am as coud of her as the women. I believe that Dr. S. H. Thompson was just born to lead. No time in the history cf the grand lodge was it in as gccd condition as it is teday and the seme is true cf the! grand court. Two leaders work- ing tegether just like what they are, sister and brother. I think dhat I had better here give you the names of the offi- cers elected before I have used up all the snace I have.

One of the busiest women I met during my stay there was Mrs. Maybell Bradshaw. She had much to do with the {rro- gram—in fact she was chair- man of the program ecmmit- tee and she served in that place well, and I feel ready to take off my hat to her all the time. I had the pleasure of going’ to the home of L. W. Harden &'Son, and you will believe me when I tell you that they are remarkable people. They are the landscape gardeners of Junction City." I dcn’t know just what that is but it is something out of the ordinary. They have on their cards: “If it is With dirt we do it, golf ccurses, tennis couits and yards a specialty. Any kind of landscape gardening.” You will have to .know yourself what that is and if you dcn’t know I can’t tell you. Mrs. Harden is one of the best trained. nurses iri the country and she is kept busy. I cannot forget F. S. Pem- beiton who is in the ipcultry business, and you believe he is it in that business, too. He has many chickens, and all other kind of éating things with wings. He supplies the market down there, and right by his side is a very queen, Mrs. Pemberton. 5 I have made it to Kansas City, met many friends. Mrs. Mabel Sinclair made some real fine sherbet which hes gone into my sherbet eternity and I am ready for more. I will spend Sunday in town, and then on to Alabama.
