BISHOP CLEA MIDNIGHT FEELS HAP MINGLES WITH BIG
MIDNIGHT FEELS HAPPY, ALTHOUGH SICK MINGLES WITH BIG MEN AND WOMEN
TRAVELS WITH DR. GREGG
Birmingham, Ala.—The Bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal church will meet next month in Columbia, S. C., and the Pythian bath house will be dedicated next week in Hot Springs, and there will be present representative Pythians from all over the United States, and this promises to be one of the greatest events in the history of the order, and the people of Arkansas will see some few things they have never seen before in the history of their state, although it is considered the oldest state in the world.
I am feeling happy today, although I am not well. I am happy because I have been in touch with big men and women, educators of high rating, and because I have shaken hands with them, I am feeling like I am some pumpkins myself, and I don't care just how you feel.
I have been to Indianapolis as you know, and there I was the guest of Rev. S. B. Butler of the Baptist church, and also Rev. Dr. Westbrooks, who is another great man, yet I did not get to see Rev. Charles H. Johnson, D. D., another great big minister. I saw Dr. Charles Sumner Williams, who is booked for one of the Bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal church, and is right now the pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church. I, had the pleasure of riding from Indianapolis, to Louisville, with Dr. John A. Gregg, the president of Wilberforce University. He called for me in an automobile at 3:30 in the morning, and when we got to the stable to get on the wagon, we were told by the man that he was instructed to charge it all to Dr. Charles Sumner Williams, the present Bethel pastor.
From this you will see that I have been associated with a university president, and a big man at that, one who is to be a bishop in 1924. Dr. Gregg is one of the greatest educators in this race of ours, and then he will bring much to his church as a bishop. In his present position he has had to pull a load, yet he has met it with smiles, and the church will tell him to step up in a short time now. I can't see to save my life how a refined cultured bishop, who has always had his, can expect a man to work—men and women I mean, spilling their brains in the heads of others without money to feed their brains. I will just make this little hint. Of course, I touched the Stewards in Louisville. William H. Steward is one of our great men and a big
Mrs. G. H. Jackson, mother of Mrs. D. A. Holmes, is reported quite sick. The funeral service of Miss Knapper was held Saturday afternoon at the Eight Street Baptist Tabernacle. Rev. D. B. Jackson officiated. Deceased was an intelligent daughter of Officer Thos. Knapper. We sympathize with the family very much. Miss Olive Henderson was a delegate to the State Teachers' Council, which convened in Topeka. Colored and white met together. She reports a pleasant time. Miss Mae McLelland had the two lady teachers at her home in a musical-literary recital at St. Luke's church Friday night. It was an enjoyable program.

Baptist at that. He is one of the foremost laymen of his church in America, and then he has a clean record behind him. He has lived the life that counts for something. He has worked for his people. We are all proud of him and what he has done. We came in touch with Noah Williams, D. D., pastor of Quinn Chapel, and who is slated for the position of Missionary Secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal church, and believe me honey when I tell you that I believe he will make a good one. He was in good trims and in good spirits, although he made an engagement with me and failed to keep it, I suppose he must have been about missions and missionary activities. When these bees sting you, you forget many things, and at times forget to eat.
I visited in company with these two big men, Drs. Gregg and Williams, the temple of knowledge, Simmons University, with Dr. C. H. Parrish, the head dispenser of knowledge, president. It was a big thing to be with these men and see about three hundred young men and women crowded in a one hundred fifty room. Things will change.
A visit to Frankfort, brought me in touch with some people of note, and three sisters, who are living just like one, and the senior member of the family acts as mother to the others, as mother and father have crossed the river, and Miss Mary Charles Ellis, is the one who is holding them together, and she has out of her earnings erected a fine two-story house for the others. Miss Marie Ellis is a teacher in the Clinton Street high school and Clint, is the housekeeper. I enjoyed this visit so very much, and I am anxious to go back again.
Frankfort, Ky., is the place where Charles Stewart was born, I am told, and he has a brother there keeping house. He is suffering with his eyes. I met Miss Martha E. Williams, one of the most noted educators in Kentucky, and who has been president of a Sunday school convention in Kentucky ever since Heck was a pup and you know something about the age of Heck right now, if you don't know anything about the age of Miss Williams. She is a servant of the people and seems to get real pleasure out of serving. I met Professor, Blanton, principal of the Clinton Street high school, and all of the teachers, but I will not be in position to tell

A revival campaign opened at Trinity A. M. E. church Monday night at the corner of Fourth street and Stewart avenue. Rev. S. D. Rhone, the pastor, has secured the service of Dr. C. R.

MRS: CORA MERRIT-EVANS
PASSES AWAY SUNDAY-MORN-
ING AFTER TEN DAYS
When the news reached the community, Sunday morning that Mrs. Cora Merritt-Evans had passed to the beyond, it brought a great gloom and sorrow to our community and to the hundreds, on the way to church, who learned the death angel had come into this home at 6:55 a.m. Mrs. Evans was the wife, of Mr. Ernest Evans and lived at 1414 N. Eighth street. She had only been sick about ten days and the beginning of her illness was very serious and her family and friends had but little encouragement as to her recovery, but did not think the end was so near. She had been for several weeks at the bedside of her sister, Mrs. Owens, 730 Everett avenue, both night and day, and had only been relieved a few days as her sister had improved, when she took down. Her husband and mother and the skill of doctors and specialists did every thing they could, but the ravages of the disease baffled all of them.
Mrs. Evans was a sweet character, having always a pleasant smile and sunshinny disposition. She was greatly loved and admired by all who knew her. Her friends were by the legion. She was the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Thomas J. Merritt, who was one of the pioneer African Methodist ministers of the West. He being called home some years ago. Her mother, Mrs. Drucilla Merritt, a sainted woman, who has lived with her daughter for several years, with tender hands and loving care, remained night and day at her child's couch until the death angel came. The deceased was a devoted Christian and for many years was one of the leading soprano choir members of First A. M. E. church at the corner of Eighth street and Nebraska avenue.
The deceased leaves a husband, mother, two sisters, Mrs. Owens of this city and Mrs. Clarence Moss of Topeka, and one brother, present address unknown. The funeral was held from First A. M. E. church Wednesday at 2 p. m. Rev. J. R. Ransom, by request, of Topeka, officiating, assisted by Rev. J. F. Griffin, Rev. J. C. C. Owens and Presiding Elder J. A. Payne.

SAYS JUDGE HARRISON
Altho it was not known till Saturday morning, that, Judge Harrison would speak at the Forum, the publicity committee sent notices to several churches and other members told all they could, and another audience of over 1,600 gathered at Metropolitan tan Temple to listen to the famous jurist. Judge Hutchings was one of the distinguished guests, and Judge Bradley and other prominent lawyers were also present.
After prayer, President Towers introduced Attorney Shackleford, who in glowing terms introduced Judge Harrison, who gave another wonderful speech in part as follows:
"The world is a great brotherhood and if all races were really acquainted, they, would not scratch each other. Some mix Democracy with social equality. As all races are God's children, we also have a right to play in our Father's front yard."
"I am asking for all the rights God gave me, also all the rights that the Federal constitution of U. S. A. gave me. Open the door of opportunity for all our men and women, and let us alone, and we will go to the stars. I'm happy in my race, and as shinny is a democratic game, I will shinny on my side and want everybody else to shinny on his own side.
"Thought is running the world. Black men, stop complaining and think and get into the channels of thinkers. Trials make us stronger; like the kite, opposition should make us fly higher. Have faith in God; have confidence in ourselves, and have

Judge Harrison Delivers Wonderful
Lay Sernion, '
‘A fine audience greeted the pastor,
Rev, J. F. Griffin, Sunday, at the
11 o'dock service. Many strangers
and friends were present, Dr. Girffin,
although physically weak, delivered
one of his strongest sermons of his
series on the sublect “Is Christ a Ne-
cessity.” ‘These sermons have been
the means of a large number of non-
church goers and slack members to
come out regularly to hear them and
the results have been demonstrated,
by many accepting Christ and the
membership of the church wonder-
fully revived to a higher plane of
christian living.
‘At 7:30 p. m. the auditorium was
filled comfortably to hear Judge Wm.
Harrison of Chicago, who delivered a
most interesting and inspiring lay
sermon. It was of great spiritual
depth, with beautiful pictures of
christian living, eloquently delivered.
Tt was wonderfully enjoyed by his
large audience of attentive hearers. A
number joined the chureh during the
day and others acknowledged Christ
as their Savior.
‘The Sunday Schoo! at 9:30 showed
in their class reports, many new
scholars and visitors. The Senior and
Junior Allen leagues are being wel
attended and their programs are be-
coming more interesting every Sun-
day.

night is lifting to those who attend
and gives power to overcome the
world and its fancies.
The Friday night class meeting:
are being largely attended by both
members and leaders. The spirit of
the Lord is feelingly felt in these
meetings and no one leaves without
being stronger for the battles of the
flesh.
‘The church Bulletin is becoming
more popular each Sunday with th
congregation and especially the con
gregational. song that appears on i
exch Sunday. The pastor will clos
his second series of sermons this Sun
day and no one should fail to hea

sermons on the church and methods
for larger efforts and greater service.
‘Last Sunday the discourse was from)
the subject: ‘The Church and the
World's salvation,” Text Matthew
6:13: “Ye are the Salt of the Earth.”
Sometimes we seem to be making no
headway against the evil jn the world,|
like an overwhelming flood it rushes:
into a new opening as fast as the
'Titst one is élosed . We appear to be
drowning ‘in it at times, and many
fimid people grow discouraged,
thinking it hardly worth while to
keep up the struggle. They say there
are so many new forms of sin and
xemptation such a spirit of worldli-
fess that the Christian church is in
danger of being swamped. You need
entertain no such fear, the church is
not going out of existence. It is
reasonable to suppose that if God
knows how to establish His church
“upon this rock I will build my church
and the gates of hell shall not prevail
against it” Selt is a preservative.
The church is a preservative and
gives moral fibre to men. (The min-
ister here gave some striking illus-
trations of the evils of divorce, mur-
der, strife everywhere) The church
does not join in with the world say-
ing the church is losing out. Just
tarry until you catch the vision. Be
embued with power from on high. I
challenge you to do that and try God.
He will convict and convert many of
‘our unzaved ones., Too many men are
dying without Christ. Awake, arouse
church, and throw out- the life line.
Remember this, you can’t whip a fel-
low unless you are stronger than he.
God Almighty can and will give
strength. Then, too, on the day of
pentecost they. the desciples were all
together with one accord so let us be.
There is joy in service.
* ¥e ate the salt of the earth, but
‘the salt of the earth must not be kept
barreled up. The leaven must be
mixed with the meal. The church
must not be isolated from the world.
Look! See this scere. Jesus eating
with publicans and sinners, the Phar-
isees and Serikes murmuring. Yet
He did it to restore them rights as
children of God. We must take
Christ 2s our example.

WALNUT BOULEVARD BAPTIST
CHURCH
Our pastor, Rev. J. R. Richardson,
preached a wonderful sermon Sunday
morning, January 20, 1923. His text
was: “How to Treat Sinners—Luke
15:11-14, His subject was: “The
Prodigal Son.” He scored the vair
church members for being so haughty
and selfish. Those yo do not believe
in throwing a loving arm around the
weaker neighbor who has strayed
from the fold, He gave as an illus-
tration the brothers of the prodigal
son. They represent the stay at home
‘Christians who refuse to go away
from home and help the weak. The
man who is influenced by the world,
who tires of good advice and counsel
is called the man who strays away
from home, or the prodigal son. Only
famine, hard times, sickness, etc.
causes this type of man to come bach
to the fold.
In conclusion. he said that the truc
Christian should go out and meet hi
wayward brother and throw arounc
him the arms of love and lead hin
back to the fold.
We welcome “you to our services.

WHEN TO TELEPHONE
‘It is a bad plan that admits of no
modification.—Publius Syrus.
JX THESE days almost every sort
of invitation comes to us over the
telephone. "A few: years ago It would
have’ been regarded as in bad form
to ask friends to dinner in’ this way
and @ hostess would not have Invited
her friends to a card party over the
telephone, but now in most sets and
in most Jocalities this sort of thing Is
permitted.
However, there are, ghjections to
ihe felephone invitation at any time.
There Is always the chance ‘that -it
‘will not Ie.corrgetly understood and
tittle misunderstandings have been
known to result from the misunder-
stood telephone invitation. "
‘Then theré is sume difficulty In hav-
ing practically no time to decide
whether or not it Is really possible
to accept an-invifation, Another
tentative engagement may be pending.
‘The busy mother sometimes has first
to find out whether or not she can
get some one to whom she can en-
trust her children when she is gone.
‘The man has to see whether he can
be sure not to have to work that
night. Ani St Is not always agreeable
to have to explain these difficulties,
or to say, “I will see whether I can
come and will let you know in half
an hour or tomorrow morning.”
Whereas when one has a written in-
vitation, although the answer should
he prompt and unconditional, still
there Is time to think the matter over.
In business the telephone often Is
used when it would be far better to
send a written message. So It Js that
some concerns will not take an order
for certain kinds of work unless It 1s
written. For the written request ot
order is a guarantee, a pledge between
the two partles concerned. If there
fs any disagreement concerning the
nature of the order the written letter
stands as 2 good way to settle the
question, while with the telephone
message there {s not even the eatis
faction of having a.third person as
witness to thé transaction,

‘The gospel for St. Agnes’ day was
‘the parable of the ten virgins and,

“And my tail, sir, I will have you
know, is the pride of-many a lord and

deed you never knew what a handsome
tall really was until you beheld mine.”
“Mr, Fox looked very fierce as he
said all this and shook his handsome

a battle with Mr, Fox: for. bestiad none

Mr! Fox's pardon for having men-

“and all I was going to, say, Mr.
Fox, was that our tails are about the
same size at night; no one can see that
T have a black tip.”
Now Mr. Fox at that time did not
have the white tip to his tall that-he
now wears, 20 the woodfolk tell the
story, and when he heard what Xr.
Coyote sald he bristled up with anger
again.
“Well, I can tell you, Mr. Coyote,
that this will be the last nlght that
your tail and mine will look the least
alike,” said Mr, Fox; “from tonight
‘my tail shall bear a mark that will
never leave any “oubt fis to who {8

Mr, Fox trotted off without felling
Mr, Coyote what he was going to do,
but the next time they met Mr. For
waved in the face of Mr. Coyote as he
passed him a tall with a white tip. He
had pulled out every dark hair tll
only the white showed. .
“Well, I never!” exclaimed Mr. Coy-
ote, looking after him, “but he for-
gets that he has really done me a
favor, for his tail can be seen now,
and if anyone happens to be around

|that should be done. He sees it now
cas: I. saw it several years ago. He
is fitted-for that work and God would
Rave him’ do it, Let us*turn our at-
tention to it.
} I had the’ pleasure of speaking to
'the students of Fisk University, to
‘the students- of Walden, and was in-
vited to Roger Williams, to Meharry,
and to the other places of interest,
but time would not permit me to make
the visit,
Dr. A. M. Townsend is working
hard to complete the building for the
Sunday School Publishing Board of
the National Baptist convention, and
I believe this will be done scon. They
are working hard on it and will push
it to completion. The building com-
mittee, was in session when I visited
the building.
Say what you will or may, Ira T.
Bryant, is a business genius, and he
has brought more to his church with-
out going on a begging list than any
other one human being. The Sunday
School Union is a monument, and
every African Methodist should feel|
proud of it. They are doing busi-
ness, and in addition to that he has
purchased for his church some valu-|
able property right there connecting
with the Union building. Like the
white church people of Nashville, he
is like the other religious bodies of
the other race, getting business prop-
erty while it is getable, and same
day the whole church will gather
around his open grave and praise God
for his life. You may not understand
him, but you must give him credit and
if the church should set him aside
it would be slapping itself in the
ace and impeding its own progress.
Bryant is not a man of words, but
he is a man of deeds. He feels called
upon, and at times divinely-inspired
to call attention to some irregulari-
ties, and they cuss him for it. Some
of us must have a cussing to get
‘things as they ought to be. Some
}day I am going to Nashville, and
just see what this fellow has done
for his church and tell all you readers
about it,
