KANSAS CALIFORNIA HAS NO SEGREGATED INSTITUTIONS Children of Any Race Can Go to Any Educational Plant and Learn to Be Good Citizens San Francisco, Calif.—I want you to pray that this old earth will behave itself while I am out here and that it will not go shaking, for if it should I will run against something and just butt my fool branis out. If that should happen, I will have them divided up among my friends as souvenirs. I am out this way looking for health. You see my health went off on a vacation and I do not know which way it went hence I am looking out here, and I am glad to report to you that I have found some of it, yet my head is just giving me lots of trouble, and I don't know just what the future is going to bring me. All out this way in the west, the people have been looking for the National Baptist convention, and they are still looking and it will be an awful mistake if the convention of 1923 don't come right on to Los Angeles and let the people in the west see the big convention. It would be just the thing to do. I vote that way now, and you knew I am some member of the Baptist faith. When I wrote to you last week I was in Bakersfield, Calif., and I remained there several days, and then left there for this place, and would you be surprised to know that this is my first time in Bakersfield? Yes, and this is my first time in San Francisco, and it is some hilly town, believe me, honey, and it was all I could do to keep my mouth from jumping out of my heart when I go up some of these big hills here. When you read this letter I will have started back to the United States, and may be there. I came here because I learned that Bishop W. A. Fountain was going to hold a conference here, and I just made up my mind that I would come and see him hold it, and right here and now I want to congratulate the General Conference of 1920 upon showing such good mule sense, and electing one of the finest men in the whole church to the high and exalted position, and I think it would be nice if the Fifth Episcopal District could get him for 1924 to 1928. I am not insisting on this, because I don't know what he has in mind, but he is a bishop and will go where they tell him to go, and do what they tell him to do that's right. He will be in the hands of that Episcopal committee, and I am just throwing out a hint. He is a man every inch of him, and then he is kind, loving and fatherly and can be reached direct and you don't have to get a pair of high stilts in order to get in touch with Bishop Fountain. He is just a big brother and father to all the peple, and he is doing some mighty good pleading for our people in this country, and then he is asking the people of the west not to complain about color, but prepare for anything that comes along wanting to train man. He is urging that our young people go to high school, to college, for all the schools of California are opened to us, and there are not any colored schools in the whole state. If you are of school age walk in and have (Concluded on Fourth Page) SUBSCRIPTION PRICE TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50 In order to encourage Christian leadership in our schools and college, a conference of the presidents and officers of the student Y.

ROBINSON-STUART SIXTH REUNION The sixth annual reunion of the Robinson-Stuarts was held Sunday, September 24, 1922, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Scott. From 10 a. m., to 10 p. m., relatives came and enjoyed themselves telling reminiscences of days gone by. At 2 o'clock dinner was served, and the guests, numbering about one hundred, were served the following menu: Chicken and dumplings, mashed potatoes, cabbage, boiled ham, candied sweet potatoes, salad, light bread, corn bread, coffee, apple pie a la mode, ice cream, cake and watermelons. All praised the dinner and then listened to the following program: Sacred chorus; invocation, Mrs. E. Williams; piano music, Mrs. C. Graves; President J. W. Robinson's address was greatly applauded; Victrola music; original family reunion poem by Mrs. M. Calloway-Matthews, which received great applause and many compliments, as she has written more poems than any in her family, and than any woman of our race; and has been complimented by U. S. Presidents, governors and notable people of the Caucasian race. Remarks by Mrs. E. Beatty were good. An appropriate song and prayer ended the program. The same officers were elected by acclamation. A letter of regrets from Neal Robinson, our inventor, was read. Greetings were sent from Mrs. L. Alexander, of Lincoln, Nebraska; Mrs. M. Walker, of Atchison and from Messrs. Richard and George Stone, here from St. Louis, but were too sick to attend. Over $8 was taken up for Mr. French Stuart, who was present from Liberty, although he is partially paralyzed. The president ordered the reunion poem printed in the paper or in pamphlet form, and adjourned to meet September, 1923. Financial sponsors at this reunion were: Mr. J. W.

Miss Jackson and Miss Tucker narrowly escaped from the path of the cruel car. Miss Flower was taken to her home, 934 Nebraska avenue, accompanied by her friend, Miss Anderson. After an examination by a physician, it was found that neither had any broken bones, but both were severely bruised about the body. It is not believed either are injured internally, but it may take a few days more to determine certain developments. It is said the driver of the car did not stop to assist or see whether he had killed his victims. The many friends of these two young women regret very much their accident and extend to them every sympathy and hope that they may soon be themselves again. B. Y. P. U. The Walnut Boulevard B. Y. P.

All was quiet within. When he entered the house the lights were turned on. He beheld the choir members seated around the room. He was surprised so much so he laughed and could say nothing for ten minutes. There was a beautiful birthday cake with 26 candles. They were lighted with a good wish for him by each member of the choir. The choir presented him with a nice present. Delicious refreshments were served. Cake, ice cream and fruit punch. A very enjoyable evening was spent and all wished him many happy returns of his birthday.

Griffin, who was returned to First A. M. E. church, has been given a four weeks' vacation and left Wednesday evening. Dr. Griffin went from here, to Junction City, where he Thursday joined Rev. Wayman Ward in his auto and motored in Rev. Ward's car to Denver, where Rev. Griffin will spend some time with friends and a few days at Colorado Springs and the rest of his vacation probably will be spent in Salt Lake City. Dr. Griffin, after five years of hard and strenuous labor, at the corner of Eighth street and Nebraska avenue, with the many other responsible obligations placed upon him in this community, had impaired his health and should have taken a rest long before this time. Sunday morning after the service he was given a warm reception by the congregaton and friends and when hundreds greeted him on his return they showed their appreciation with a money grasp of the hand by leaving a fat purse to make his trip and that he might come back to us and his many friends greatly benefited in health. SIKI. A COLORED The pugilistic champion and idol of the European countries Georges Carpentier, was hopelessly beaten last Saturday, at Paris, France, by Siki, a heavy weight Senegalese giant of that country John O'Brien, a reporter present, says Carpentier was beaten into a pulp. The bout was scheduled for twenty rounds, but the black French colonial heavy weight finished his man in six rounds. Siki was brought to his knees a couple of times by his opponent, but would rise to his feet and say, "Come on, Mr. Carpentier." At the end of the third round, Siki waded into his man and from then on to the end of the sixth around punished his man most unmercifully, Siki carrying his victim to his corner. The reporter stated Carpenter was a raving maniac all night, with a doctor at his bedside. Siki first drew attention when he knocked out Harry Reeve, former heavyweight champion of England, in six rounds. He then won a fifteen-round decision from Mariel Niles and outpointed Paul Journee, who acted as Carpentier's sparring partner in the United States.* Siki probably will come to America next year, when he and Wills will be matched. Rev. J. R. Ransom, who was taken quite sick at the conference last week at Lawrence, is getting along nicely, of which his many friends here will be glad to hear Dr. Ransom was sent to Topeka this year, having been at Wichita for five years, with great success. Mrs. H. Horsley of Chicago, is in the ciyt visitiNg her sister, Mrs. Marian Cotten, 1922 North Sixth street. Mrs. Horsley will be the guest of her sister and family about six weeks. Mrs. P. L. Hopson, after a month's visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. Miles, 830 Nebraska avenue, returned to her home; Charleston, W. Va., Monday. Mrs. Mattie Griffin, of Louisville, Ky.; is visiting Rev. and Mrs. J. F. Griffin, 1111 North Eighth street. Mrs. Griffin is a cousin of Dr. Griffin. Number 7. Was History Making Event — Floats Said to Have Made Better Show Than Any Ever Mayor Spoke The Emancipation celebration, led by the Civic League, September 22, was the greatest event of the month. Many of all races said the parade was the finest ever seen in Kansas City, Kansas. More than fifty lovely decorated floats were in the line of march. The Shriners band looked lovely in their costumes and the Metropolitan church float was first in line, and had the pictures of Abraham Linccln, the emancipator, on both sides. The pictures were loaned by Mrs. M. C. Matthews and were very appropriate. Mr. C. Holmes and Mrs. Davis were the chairmen of Metropolitan. Some of the many beautifully decorated floats were: First Baptist, in white roses; Dunbar Drug store yellow and white flowers; Federaiton of Clubs, white roses; Douglass Hospital, Jones' Undertaking, Eighth Street Baptists, and many others we have not space to mention. But the float of Mr. J. C. Groves won the first prize, because of its beauty and usefulness. It had the appropriate colors, red, white and blue, and was covered with corn, vegetables and apples and grapes artistically arranged. Mrs. Ida Groves, dressed as a farmerette, rode upon it. It is said there were 3,000 school children in line, with their teachers. All locked well. Dougless had many banners such as "U. S. Means Us." "Lincoln Freed Us and Now We Will Free Ourselves." "Lincoln Will Never Die." Stowe school looked well. Dunbar school had cn red, white and blue caps and their kindergarten was represented by a beautifully decorated baby buggy with a child in it. It was applauded. Miss Henrietta Gayden, the queen, dressed in a purple silk robe, rode in a beautiful float on a throne. At the park she was given a fine ring from Garnier's, and Miss E. Anthony, her maid of honor, was given a string of pearls. The principal speech at the park was by Mayor Burton. He praised the affair and said "it was the finest parade he had ever seen here." All the churches sold out their refreshments, two or three times that day. More than 5,000 people attended the picnic, and every one enjoyed the greatest and most appropriate celebration that has been given by our race in the United States. Western University band played well: The Boy Scouts did their duty. Bouldin Cleaners had two nice floats. All the young ladies who ran for queen received nice prizes. H. B. Cypert, barber, had a nice float; also the Y. W. C. A. Sumner High school students and teachers looked well. Rev. and Mrs. G. M. Tillman, of Fort Scott, Kansas, visited Monday and Tuesday of this week in the two Kansas Cities. They were enroute to their home from Lawrence, where their annual conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church closed Sunday night. Mrs: A. J. Bouldin and Mrs. S. H Thompson visited Mrs. Bouldin's parents, Rev. and Mrs. Parker, this week at Parksville.

CHURCH NEWS A fine audience, which filled the lower auditorium and many in the gallery greeted Rev. J. F. Griffin, Sunday morning, at the 11 o'clock service, on his return to First church for another year. Dr. Griffin told his old and new congregation he was glad to see them and be back with them again. While the pastor is far from being a well man, the spirit of the Lord took possession, seemingly of his entire being and he never delivered a greater sermon to a more appreciative audience and when the doors of the church were opened three stalwart men came forward and acknowledged Christ and others joined the church. Shouts and hallelujahs went up all over the vast assembly of spirit feeling Christians and sinners twisted in their pews. Mrs. M. L. Reed, who has done missionary work in Monrovia, Liberia, South Africa, for seventeen years, spoke at the evening service to a splendid hearing audience. Mrs. Reed, is a brilliant woman and a fluent speaker, with a charming voice. Her talk and environments of the millions of the race shown at this place, was so vivid that one felt as though Africa was just across the Kaw. Mrs. Reed is a woman of many experiences among the heathen and has, with her husband, in these seventeen years, done a great work and is still doing for the race and humanity. The pastor left Wednesday evening for a four weeks' vacation in the Colorado mountains and other points and while absent the assistant pastor. Dean Jones, will have charge of the pulpit. The Senior Christian Endeavor gave a fine program last Sunday evening from 6:30 to 7:30 and a large attendance was the result. Come out this Sunday evening and enjoy another one.

Pastor Sunday school, 9:30 a. m.; preaching, 11 a. m., and 8 p. m. B. Y. P. U., 6:30 p. m. Prayer and praise service, Wednesday, 8 p. m. Beginning with the Sabbath school services were of a high order and largely attended, Mrs. T. H. Renyolds, superintendent and teacher of the primary department, with Mrs. Gayden, superintendent of the Cradle Roll department, and Mrs. Bailey of the Intermediate department, prepared a unique and highly interesting program consisting of Bible stories and verses told splendidly by the tots who were promoted from the beginners and primary department to primary and intermediate departments. Mrs. Reynolds and her corps of teachers are to be congratulated on the excellent work being done in the religious training of our youth. The pastor was inspired by the program and bade the school catch the vision of greater service through the Sabbath school. At 11 a.m, the pastor brought an inspiring soulcheering message from the subject, A Miracle Man. Text, Luke 7-12. Jesus spake and acted as a God and every step portrayed his divinity. On his approach to the city of Nain, Jesus beheld a funeral procession, a very unpleasant sight to see on your approach to a city; for it will likely cast a gloom over your spirit. On the bier was a young man whose sun went down at noonday, a leaf withered in springtime. Jesus discovered it was an only son, in a large family to lose one there might be others to whom we may turn our affections, but deep sorrow pervades the home where the only child is taken, but God's boundless love for us is typical for He gave His only begotten son as a sacrifice for us. For the widows grief Christ had compassion. Compassion is indicative of His nature. As an expression of compassion to her He said, Weep not. Who is it that has not wept? Jacob, David and myriads without number, even Christ wept. What does He mean then by saying Weep not? Christ meant he was going to remove the cause for weeping. What did he do? He touched the bier Ordinarily the act might have been questioned,but when Jesus touched the bier all stood still. Jesus, King of Glory, restored him to his mother. When we are heart-stricken, whatever the cause, tell Jesus. He can remove the cause and say, Arise. Dead in trespasses and sin, Jesus says, Arise. To the poor and needy He has compassion. Jesus restored the son to his mother. Jesus can restore anything we may lose through death or other causes. Our earthly friends may not be near us, nor on time when we sorely need them, but Jesus is always on tme. Truly hearts were made to rejoice as the minister portrayed in touching words the old Gospel story of the compassionate Christ, The Miracle Man. Thirty-one visitors worshipped with us The tireles, energetic workers of the Willing Workers board, Sisters Malinda Mason, president; Lulu Butler, secretary, presented the church with fifty dollars The rally up to date is $1,116.15. B. Y. P. U, was very interesting. The Junior group under direction of Mrs. Smith, gave an excellent program and Brother Forders introduced the kev. H. H. Jones, a medical missionary of Liberia, U. C. of Africa, who lectured. He brought tidings from our missionary, Sister Frances Watson, who is doing effective work in the dark continent of Africa. His lecture was an instructive one. A welcome awaits all who attend our services. METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES A large congregation heard Dr. Wm. Franklin, of Omaha, preach good sermons at the morning and evening services, and Miss Burk of Sumner High school made remarks of praise and gratitude for Miss Henrietta Gayden of our church, getting the most votes, and winning the title of Emancipation Queen of 1922. She said, "Miss Gayden won, and our church won also, and for each one of us to tell others and thank all those who helped by voting." The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. are doing good. The Mission Circle will give a unique entertainment Friday, October 13, at the church. The Church Aid still gives chicken diners every Wednesday. The Daughters of Zion are still meeting. A letter was read Sunday stating the pastor-elect has found his father does not want him to leave his native state, and for that reason he will not come here to pastor. Some said "amen" when they heard it because they still trust in God and know He will not let us wander alone. God will senr a brave Christian, who will not listen to Satan's gossip and who will take hold of the work and lead us on to victory. Next Sunday some great preacher will preach for us, so come out and hear him.

B. F.’s and S. M. "p’s held in Wichita, Kansas, eavty in the month Seventeen people composed an auto coach party of delegates and merry » makers that went over the fa- mous Santa Fe trail from this city into Wichita. The tourists memories will ever cluster areund every mile of the 237 that were made. ‘nly a few old landmarks of pioneer days were visible. Suf- ficient, however, to awaken in one a deep reverence and a kindly thought for those van- guards of civilization who braved the burning sun, en- dured the pangs of hunger and thirst, the exposure to rav- ages of the red man, carrying the banner of good cheer and happiness to the olden sunset cities in the Far West 66 years ago. | ‘The feature of the trip were stories of Brother S. H. Davis, the Jew impersonator; of Brother Anderson, the vigor- ating breeze, the natural scen- ery, the beautiful moonlight drive and the tinged crimson of beauty that clustered around the setting sun. - Sister Pearl Irvin thought she saw a band of red men with savage looking toma- hawks stealing stealthily upon our little group in the moon- light shadows of the evening. In the 45-mile dash on here that followed Sister Ella Vaughn lost her hat. After reaching a safety zone a searching party in soon formed headed by Andy Willis, the Beau Brummel, and for a mile back the bushes were beat with no avail. Brother Oscar Williams found in the search some bones which he declared might have been that of an ox that perished during a _prairiz storm-60 years ago. Brother George Shacks discovered foot prints in the soil that he was convinced were made by buf- ' falo that roamed at will in the 40’s. Brother Eugene Posey who claimed he was not famil- jar with the west, thoyght that Brother J. W. King, who was crippled, ought to know. Quite a heated discussion arose between Billy Martin, who about the antiquity of the ored glasses, and Brother Willis, who wanted to buy some oil stock at Eldorado about the authority of the find. All was ended when camp was reached, for assistance ‘was given Dr. Mixon, who had exhausted almost, his emer- gency medicine case in reviv- ing Sisters Taylor, Woods and Quinn, who suffered from a nervous shock over the Indian scare. Stops were made at Olathe Ottawa, Yates Center, Eldora: do, Empopria, Newton, Waver- ae ee — PUBLICATON NOTICE In the District Court of Wyan- dotte County, Kansas. — Div. - Helen Perdue, Plaintiff, vs Clar- evee Perdue, Defendant. ‘To Clarence Perdue: You are hereby notified that you have been sued by the above named nlaintiff in the District Court of ‘Wyandotte County, Kansas, for di- voree, and that you are required to answer the petition of plaintiff filed in the office of the Clerk of the Dis- trict Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas, on or before the 3rd day of November, 1922, or said petition will be taken as true and judgment will be rendered against you in fa- vor of plaintiff granting her an ab- solute divorce of and from you and for such other and further relief as the nature fo the case may require and for costs, DORSEY GREEN, a Attorney for Plaintiff.

Well now what do you think, Uncle Ike? “T ain't think nothin but what’s in de book.” Well, what is that? What is it? ‘Tain’t nothin but “Venus, Mars and Jupiter.” O! I see, you’ mean “Veni, Vidi, Vici.” ._ Well, what’s de difference? Don’t it all mean de same thing. Well I did not know that,— What does it mean, Uncle Ike? Wise as you thinks you is,— and doan know what dat means —it_mean,—“Bein some whers, comin from some place and and gwyne- on further” dat’s what it means, and dats all it means. And that surely is what we tiied to show for the Civic League last Friday. Our cup of joy was quite full when we observed such a healthy showing of union, co- operation and conservation. When I thought of the life work of n.y dear friend, Cor- vine Patterson, and of his un- dying devotion to his com- lyades,—that time honored: rem- nant of brave black boys who staked their all, and more, to make possible the day we cele- brated. When I thought of the numerous companies of them, who marched away from this very place, to do battle for freedom,—and saw that great number reduced by the rav- ages of time, to a scarce half dozen, refusing a gapping grave its: morsel. When I saw them, still leading stalwart business men, sober gentle women, buxom bright boys, and comely girls in that cred- itable processicn, and observed the strong evidence of ndus- trial, civic and political prog- ress, as it teemed on every hand. I could not but feel, that his spirit too, was marching, “marching on,” along with that cf those great good men, whose memory we delighted to honor. * Truly it was a day which will not be soon forgotten, and from which we hope, every ycung soul among us will take inspiration to become, to be, a real live active factor for good in the community in which he or she shall live. “Venus, Mars and Jupiter’ We will have more later. .

He is not ashamed to let the world know that he is from the south, and he tells of the wonderful opportunities in the south as well as in the north and west, and with the men and women of the west doing the right thing will help those they left behind them, and when we get to donig the right thing all over this country there is to be a real change in conditions You who are in the North, East and West vote right, vote for the proper men and not so much for parties, and those who can in the south will do their part of voting, and then it will be that man will recognize man, and a few thimble headed politicians will not abuse the Negro in order to get into office, for that Negro's vote will count one and a great big one at that, Bishop Fountain is advocating Christian manhood and womanhood. He is telling our people that there is nothing in color, nothing in hair, nothing being bunched. He believes that when we are bunched in the cities and towns, that means strength, and in order to show us that when we are together that we can lift a few hills and even mountains. He tells how the people of Chicago are thrown together, and as a result they are represented in the Legislature. They have members of the council, two in number, and it doth not yet appear what it shall be. He can see a man of our race walking into Congress from the bunched districts of Chicago, New York and other places. He declares that the Negro is going into the Legislatures in the South, and they are going to return to Congress. He is just speaking right cut for his race. There will be a clamor for this bishop in 1924, because of his much scholarship and sane and safe leadership. They have some strong young men out here in this country in the ministry, and others are entering. They love to serve under Bishop Fountain, and I tell you we need strong men in the ministry right now. Mrs. Norene Davis, Grand Worthy Counsellor of Kansas, is out here, and you will believe me, when I tell you she is truly representing Kansas, and the people who sent her out here will be proud of her. She is just a very queen. The Calantheas and Knights of Pythias are planning to give her a big reception and banquet, and as I am writing this letter the Grand Chancellor has been here and invited me to come to it. I think I will try to get there, and if I do I will have something to tell you about it I was talking to Mrs. Davis today, and she told me about the big time she is having, and she will tell the people all about it when she returns home. She is going from here back to Los Angeles, and that will be her headquarters for several weeks and then she will start from there home. She is going to visit some there. Perhaps you have heard of Congress. I do not know at this time whether or not the Dyer bill has passed the Senate, but I do know it ought to pass, and if it don't I doubt whether I am going to vote to hold the Republican party in power. I may vote against President Harding, but I am not saying now. Just as soon as the people of the West hear of Mrs.-Davis they seek her. She has many friends, and I am told that they are out here. I am sorry that I do not know just where she is stopping. In Los Angeles, she is with a lady that at one time lived in Mexico. Mo., where she was born. If you want to write to me now, send your letter to 813 East Tenth street, for I am going to be there on the second Sunday in October, with the Rev. Dr. Isaacs. I am going to speak for him, and then Charles Stewart is going to deliver a lecture for the men in Allen Temple, using as his subject. "Where in the'll You Gion'? Damfino." I want to hera this lecture, just to see what he is going to say. This is sounding like some real cusing, and I want to see how this guy is coming out. I will be there, and hope other men will be there to keep me from, blushing. Then he is going to preach there, and deliver a lecture Monday night. I think he is going to talk about "Civilization Wants a Man." I will let you know in my next letter. I have about said enough for this week. Look out for my other letters.
