Wouldn’t Mind That
An Italian kept a fruit stand
and was much annoyed by pos-
sible customers who made a
practice of handling the fruit
and pinching it, thereby leav-
ing it softened and often
spoiled. Exasperated beyond
endourance he finally put up a
sign. which read:
“If you must pincha da fruit
pincha da coconut.”

CHURCH NEWS
The services last Sabbath
day brought many to the house
of worship. It was Old Folk
day and a large number were
brought to the church in auto-
mobiles and taken home at the
close of the afternoon service.
A fine congregation was
present at the eleven o'clock
service, when Bishop W. Samp-
son Brooks of West Africa de-
livreed a sermon that went di-
rectly into the hearts of his
hearers.
The Pastor’s Aid Board serv-
ed an appetizing chicken din-
ner to nearly one hundred old
people from almost every part
of the city, irrespective of de-
nomination. Praise meeting
was held at 2:30 p. m... Mrs.
Woodfork leading, assisted by
Mr. Nelson. At 3 p. m., Rév.
Mr. Davis of Western Univer-
sity delivered a sermon which
was enjoyed. At the close of
the day’s service, 7:30 p. m.,
Rev. Albert Miller filled the pul-
pit and preached a_ spiritual
sermon to an appreciative audi-
ence. Prof. Bartlett, a noted
pipe organist of Los Angeles,
rendered two classical numbers
which were highly appreciated.
The senior choir rendered ex-
cellent music at the morning
service and the junior choir
held up the day’s service in mu-
sic at the evening service. It
was a big day all day at First
church. How the old patriarchs
enjoyed it and their souls were
happy with joy.
Rev. J. F. Griffin, the emin-
nt and lovable pastor, who is
away for his health, was
sreatly missed. Dean Jones,
the assistant pastor, was de-
ighted with the day’s services.
The church will be honored
Sunday with a strong minister
rom the Southwest Confer-
nce of Missouri, which confer-
nce is being held this week, at

i side. Come out and hear him.

comprehensive outline of the
lesson, which was heartily dis-

METROPOLITAN
“TEMPLE NOTES
Although ‘the weather was
somewhat inclement, a large
number hastened to the church
to hear Dr. Rogers preach. He
taught us to seek for truth.
justice and love, things which
are immuntable, i.e., unchange-
able. He taught us that God is
love; and that. gold and silver
and things of this world
change,, but that God _ never
changes. He used Paul's tri-
umphs and Isaiah’s’ prophecies
as metaphors. His text was
from Heb. 12th chapter. The
choir sang a song in which the
bass was just grand. At 2 p.m.
Mr. Fowler’s funeral was held.
Dr. Holmes gave the funeral
oration and Mrs. Black sang.
At 8 p.m., Dr. Rogers preached
to another large audience, sub-
ject, “Strong Shoes for Rough
Places.” It was a good sermon.
Two prominent ladies joined
the church under his preach-
ing. The choir sang a spiritual
“Long As I Can Feel, the
Spirit, I Will Pray,” very
beautfiully. Also “Let Jesus
Into Your Heart.” Deacon R.
Williams of Vine Street church,
was a visitor. Deacons present
were Messrs. Johnson, Thomas,
Ford, Oliver, Jennings, Taylor.
McCombs and Hulsey. Some
trustees were Jackson, Brown,
Dyson and Moore. =
Next Sunday, October 15th,
Dean Rogers of the Kansas
City, Mo., college, will preach
at 11 a. m., on “Standing With
God Guarantees Favor With
Your Enemies.” At 3 p. m.,
“Change Your Program and
Move Qn.” and at 8 p. m., on
‘Sunshine After the Storm.”
Come hear this learned man
preach.
The Aid still has successful
Wednesday dinners. The Cir-
le entertains Friday, and the
Mission Circle gives its suze
snough Triple Wedding tonight.
The Sunday school and B. Y.
P. U. are very lively. We are
zoing on well even though we
1ave no vastor. God is leading

(Continued from Page 1)
he is not making much fuss
about it. Men. who do things
don’t make much fuss.
Dr. Perry came to this
country from Texas, and I re-
member when he was just a
schoolboy in Dallas, when the
National Baptist convention
met there in September, 1891.
It was then that he had finshed
public schools, and ready to
start for Nashville. I said a
few things to him, and now he
has been there, made up his
mind to do things, and be-
Hieve me, he has made good, and
is still making good. We need
such men, and I tell you the
people who like me will thank
him and pray for him for what
he is doing to me daily.
I am here this week, and
stopping with the Rev. J. P.
Isaacs, pastor of Allen Chapel,
as I write, but who will be in
conference when you read this
letter. He is ready to meet his
conference, and has so worked
and labored that he is leaving
his future in the hands of the
bishop. Rev. Isaaes is a man of
thought, and a man with a vis-
jon. He has done great things
here, but like most men who
succeed there are some who
would destroy him. But he has
so lived and worked that they
can’t touch him. He is a man
of character, a preacher of
ability and with the spirit and
there is no way to destroy him.
Right by the side of Rev.
Isaacs is his wife, and she is
an ideal wife for a preacher.
You will recall that she is the
daughter of a preacher, the
Rev. Dr. D. G. Hill, of Balti-
more. He is the father of this
wonderful young woman, and
Mrs. Margaret Peck-Hill is the
mother. She is the sister of
the Rev. Dr. F. Jesse Peck,
president of Western Univer-
sity. You see she has in her
the combination of a great
‘woman, and she is. I would
that we had more like her. She
is well educated ‘and cultured
She is working by the side of
her husband. I was delighted
to see these people, and you
watch for the report of the
conference after this week
Bishop Parks is presiding. -
T had the pleasure of attend
ing services Sunday morning
im, Allen Chapel and - hear
Charles Stewart, and then from
there I went to a.meeting ii
the, afternoon for men only ant
heard the same man; andinext
found me at the Secnod ‘Bap
tist church, Rev. S. W. Bacote,
pastor, and then on Monday-
night, I met others at Allen
Temple. I have a few things
to say to you about this. I am
going to tell you about the
meetings, and about the play-
ing.
Speaking of conference and
the bishop, things are getting
down to business. I see men
are letting it be known what
they want, and then others are
looking at them to see if they
want them and if they are
fitted for the places they seek.
Some want to be bshops, and if
the general conference would
make all the men bishops- who
desire to be, then there would
not be left any pastors or pre-
siding elders. Bishops would
have to pastor local churches,
and be presiding elders, too. I
think there are about 150 who
are announcing to the world
that the Lord wants them to be
bishops, and I wonder if there
is such a thing as a man mis-
representing the wishes of the
Lord, for if He wants you to
be Bishop or anything else, He
has only to just make it so, for
He controls the hearts of many
men. I am free to admit that
there are men that neither God
nor the devil can control.
Now them comes another
class who declare the Lord has
called them to be general of-
ficers. There are more generals
than offices and the Lord will
work this out. You will see
them looking around, visiting
conferences, and not willing to
wait on the salvation of the
Lord.

A PROMINENT
CITIZENS’ FUNERAL
(Continued from Page 1)
So none of her time she’d spare
And his answer was that she
would
“Live the life and meet him
there.”
On October first, on Sunday
God sent down an Angel train
And he stepped aboard the
chariot
And Christ freed him from his
pain.
And he left her grieving for
him
A wife and two children, true;
And we know they long to meet,
him
In that land of Heaven, too.
We know that the wife and
daughter ia
Are aboard the Heavenly train
And we warn the son “keep
ready,”
So you all can meet again.
And we neighbors miss him
sadly
For his, smiles. and for his
cheets
To all neighbors and all towns-
men
Here for thirty-nine long years.
For his honesty, the Armour’s
Packing plant ne’er had no
fears;
As custodian he-was trusted
By them thirty-seven years.
|And when from St. Charles,
Missouri,
He came here in 83,
He joined the A. M. E. church,
here,
Ané was useful as could be.
Then it was in nineteen hun-
: dred,
All his faithful work could see;
He was chosen by the members
As an honored church trustee.
{But we know in Heaven there’s
gladness,
As God’s plans He must fulfill;
But we give him up in sadness
And we bow unto His will.
To the wife and to the children,
{We admonish, weep no more;
|But let all of us go meet him
| Over on the Heavenly shore.
{Now he, beckons from bright
glory
To his wife and children dear;
Says to all, and to the neigh-
bors,
“Come on, I’m happy here.”
Let’s go where our neighbor's
waiting,
With redeemed and angels blest
And with Christ, our blessed
Saviour,
We'll live, and forever rest.
Austrian Situation Perilous
With the Austrian govern-
ment bankrupt and currency
falling so low that 90,000 kro-
nen can be purchased for a dol-
lar, labor throughout the
country is engaging in strikes
in order to get a bare living ex-
istence out of wages. The gov-
ernment employees are in an
especially difficult position,
since their claims for in-
creased wages are not handled
promptly by the big officials.
Strikes of the government rail-
way, postal, telegraph, _tele-
phone, and street car employes
have occurred during the past
few weeks. They have been
settled temporarily with an in-
crease of paper money -wages.
But living costs continue to
rise, and these increases are
soon eaten up, necessitating
additional demands.
Unable to do business with
eurrency~ demoralized and. all
sources. of raw material cut: off
many of the large . Austrian
factories: are closing’ down,
‘thus, addirig- tinemployniént, to
thé other: problems which the
vovernment is:strivine to face.
That France has grown in
importance as _an_ emigration
country since the World war is
evidenced by the great number
of emigrants who are now
embarking through the ports
of Le Havre and Cherbough, in
contrast to their custom in
pre-war days of sailing from
other European ports.
Aroostook county wants to
sever connectons. with the state
of Maine and become the sev-
enth New England state. The
county is located in the north-
eastern part of the state and
cecupies about a third of the
state’s area, The county has
giown more than 30% in popu-
lation since 1900 and 300% in
valuation.
