Vol. IX SAMPLE OIL PLANT SEEN IN OPERATION THE WYANDOTTE ASPHALT AND ROAD OIL COMPANY. The one and late enterprise of the colored people of this city, that has an unbiding faith in it, is The Wyandotte Asphalt and Road Oil Company. A baby, or sample plant is in operation, at the rear of 417 Everett avenue where one can see most any day in operation, in the separation of this heavy crude oil, into three grades, just as it will be done through the large plant, when completed. The company could right now take enough orders for the road oil alone to keep it running 24 hours per day for five years, with a daily capacity of 250 barrels. The profits in this special grade of oil, are tremendous. Lawyer Manning, its secretary, at 418 Minnesota avenue, says about all of the stock is sold and that they hope to have the plant ready for operation about the first of April. Hundreds have seen the sample' plant in operation and say it is one of the best investments, to their knowledge that has even been theirs to see. The plant, when installed, will cost about $20,000 with a capacity of 250 barrels per day and the capacity can be enlarged at any time without interfering with the running of the plant, already in operation. This is the only plant that can separate this low grade oil for road purposes and will be the only one installed in this part of the west. We are sure that Mr. J. S. Manning, secretary, 418 Minnesota avenue, would delight in giving any one all the information and details of this enterprise by calling at his office or by correspondence. DIAMOND REAL ESTATE CO. The Diamond Real Estate company, Mr. George McClelland, president, 547 State avenue, located in McClelland building, has continued to make some improvements in his office, which takes up all the ground floor, that makes this real estate office one of, if not the finest, in the city, regardless of racial identification. The latest improvement, in this office is a hard wood, polished floor, with hard wood panels five feet high running on both sides of the room, with marble slabs extending on the top and running along the bottom and a cashiers stage. On both sides of the large reception lobby, are a number of swinging doors to the entrance of offices furnished with solid oak furnishings, where customers can be taken care of in privacy, in any line of the real estate business. At the rear a large rest room is elegantly fitted up, with handsome floor covering, easy rockers and other comfortable furniture. This office is a credit to the city and Mr. McClelland is to be congratulated on his pride and taste of such business ideas and civic development. ANNOUNCES MARRIAGE OF DAUGHTER Mr. and Mrs. J. A.

The colors were floating to the breeze Wednesday. No. 5 company is one of the very efficient and popular companies in the city. CITIZENS' FORUM Those who did not attend the Forum Sunday, Feb. 18, missed hearing a fine program. Again they opened with the Lord's prayer. Then President Towers asked for unfinished business. A committee of five with as chairman was appointed to meet with the Civic League to discuss the location of a community building. Mrs. Dwiggins also suggested that a committee be appointed to see about the high school having a Parent-Teacher association. She said, "the children in the high school do as they please at school." The Forum president then let Miss Myrtle Young preside, as she was the main sponsor of the following program: Piano solo, Miss L. Plummer, enclosed; reading, Mrs. Simpson, good; pipe organ solo, "Theme Negro Melody from the South," Miss Marjorie Tucker; address on "Pyorrheo," Dr. Shields, good; Inst. solo, Arabian Nights, Mr. J. Horan, good; Mr. Andrews spoke of how our young people should behave well everywhere. Miss Young and Prof. Scruggs were praised for their fine program. Attorney F. Anderson acted as critic. Dr. Maddux and Mr. Merritt took up the collection. One current event given was about David Henderson of Summer high getting one of the prizes in the essay contest and being made a member of the Chamber of Commerce. Next Sunday, Feb. 25, a very fine program will be rendered. Every citizen should be present. KNIFE AND FORK BANQUET. The Annual Knife and Fork banquet, which has been for some years one of the large affairs of the city, among our people, will be held this year, Thursday evening, March 29, and Judge Wm. Harrison of Chicago, probably one of the race's greatest platform speakers, has been secured as the principal speaker. This annual affair was founded by the First A. M. E. church, at the corner of Eighth street and Nebraska avenue and has been kept up for years, bringing to the citizens of this city and Missouri, as the speaker of the occasion, the brainiest men of the race. Its not had to make money, but to give our people an opportunity to see and hear some of our most eloquent and scholarly race men and especially for the benefit of the young students of the city. YOUNG LIFE PASSES AWAY Miss Anna Belle Holly, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Holly, after a short illness, passed away last Friday, February 16, at 10 o'clock p.m., on the Missouri side. The deceased was 24 years old and was a loving young woman and had many warm friends, she with a twin sister, being charter members of the Junior choir of the First A. M. E. church of which both were very much devoted to the church and Sabbath school. The funeral was held Tuesday from the church, Rev. J. F. Griffin officiating. The Junior choir furnished beautiful sacred music. She leaves a father, mother, three sister and one brother and a host of friends. Mr. Willie Young, 735 Nebraska avenue, who has been confined to his room for a month, is somewhat improved and can be up a little. His friends will be exceedingly glad to see him out again. CITY Kansas City, Kansas, February MIDNIGHT ATTENDS BISHOP'S ERNOR McLEOD SPEAKS GIVES WELCOM MANY COLLEGE PRESIDENTS ATTEND MAKES KEYNOTE SPEAKS Kansas City, Kansas, February 23, 1923 MIDNIGHT ATTENDS BISHOP'S COUNCIL. GOVERNOR McLEOD SPEAKS. MAYOR GIVES WELCOME MANY COLLEGE PRESIDENTS ATTEND. BISHOP JONES MAKES KEYNOTE SPEECH I. N. Ross, chairman, and Dr. A. S. Jackson, a prominent layman of the church is secretary. This was an important meeting and you will believe me when I tell you some real educational work was done. With this educational board met the heads of the colleges, the president, and they were presided over by Dr. John A. Gregg, president of Wilberforce University, Ohio. It was real interesting to see these presidents of colleges and universities. They were right there in large numbers, ready to contribute their parts to racial work. They were there to discuss the work and plan for better things in the future. Then there was the meeting of the connectional council presided over by the most remarkable man I have ever met, the Rev. Dr. H. Y. Took, presiding elder and president of the connectional council. He is one of these men not for self, but for others. He is pleading the cause of his people all over Florida—yes all over the United States. He delivered a wonderful address at the council. In speaking for his church he said: "The A. M. E. church needs a better educational system, and this is said with no reflection on the past. The members of our church are asking why should we maintain schools and colleges, and raise money to pay teachers, erect buildings, buy equipments, and when we send our children to school have to pay for them the same as we would in any other schools? This is a question worthy of consideration, and I believe that it should be fixed so as to make it easier for our people to send their children to African Methodist schools, and not have them trained by others." But let me not get off on that, for there are many things to tell you this week and when I am through you will say that I have been going some, but you will not know exactly how much. I have been seeing some men who are going to be bishops and some who want to be, but will never make it. Among the real possibilities, I met that young son of thunder, that scholar, Dr. R. A. Grant of Florida, The Civic League will meet Saturday night at its rooms, and a large attendance is desired and expected, as there is much important business to come before it for immediate action. This business must be adjusted, as time is pressing. So let every one be in his place and on time, and all will be well. Alpha Art Club meets at Mrs. Turner's on Freeman between Tenth and Eleventh streets today, Friday. The magazine, Little Baptist, is out for February. Rev. Bronson is the editor and Mrs. M. C.

They will meet there every Monday for awhile. New Court of To Be Organized Sixteen to Fifty Years Eligible for Members Will Be Set Up About Marce See or call NORENE DAVIS For particulars call Fairfax Joining Fess $2,10, Including Doctor DR. J. H. ANTHONY, MEDIC New Court of Calanthe To Be Organized Jacksonville, Fla.—There is a game in this country that they call checkers, and it looks to me like that game is being played by the African Methodist Episcopal church according to the moves and jumps made in the meeting of the bishops last week in Columbia, S. C., and it may surprise some of you to know just what happened. The game started before last week, when Rev. Edward Wittenburg jumped from New Orleans to Kansas City, and the Rev. B. G. Dawson, jumped from Kansas City to New Orleans. Then followed the meeting of the council in Columbia. It was a great meeting. Men were there from all parts of the country, and all the bishops were present except H. Blanton Parks and W. T. Vernon and W. Sampson Brooks. Of course Bishop Charles Spencer Smith was not there, because he had answered the roll call on the other side. He will not return to us, and we shall miss him. You know about him and about his passing off of the scene of action. The meeting was held in Bethel A. M. E. church, but before I talk much about the meeting or meetings, I must inform you that Bishop Benjamin Franklin Lee, of the bench, and who was in charge of Alabama, was assigned by the bishops to California and the Puget Sound, and Bishop L. J. Coppin is to go with him to hold the conference. On account of his age, I wonder if this was the best thing to do. Well it was done, and Bishop W. A. Fountain, the young intellectual giant on the bench, a man with a vision, was assigned to Alabama, where there are some problems which will require the attention of a real man, and Bishop Fountain is the man, and you will hear from him. Now that is some moving. As I was saying the meeting was held in Bethel A. M. E. church, the Rev. Dr. Wiseman, is pastor, yet he was not visible. He was kept in the background, and if there was to be any shine on the occasion, Bishop W. D. Chappelle was to do the business for South Carolina. Dr. Wiseman has done his work, and he deserves much credit for it. In connection with the Bishop the educational board, Bishop CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our many friends, neighbors and relatives, the Fowler Packing employes, Excelsior Court No. 21, St. Ruth Tabernacle No. 26, Allen Chapel Methodist church of Quindaro, the House Hold Ruths No. 5946, the Neighborhood Floral club No. 1, and also Rev.

God's faithful came to the house of prayer where they could be warmed by the fire of the Holy Ghost. The pastor, Rev. J. W. Stapleton, took his text from the 12th Chapter of Luke, 5th Verse. It was an able and instructive sermon. In the evening he preached from the 19th Chapter of Luke, 10th Verse; Subject, "Why Not Now." Text, "The Son of Man Came to Seek and to Save That Which is Lost." After our evening services our pastor, Rev. J. W.

Williams had finished his sermon, Rev. J. W. Stapleton made some instructive and interesting remarks which were heartily appreciated by all. We pray earnestly for their success in the meetings. The Allen League of Horton, Kansas, rendered an excellent program at Hiawatha, on Thursday evening, February 15. It was enjoyed by all who were present. It was for the benefit of the A. M. E. Sunday school of Hiawatha. They were returning the favor which Hiawatha extended them some time ago. We heartily appreciate the co-operation between the two places. The receipts for the evening were $33.40. The Sabbath School is doing nicely. It is well attended each Sunday. Rev. J. W. Stapleton and Mr. W. M.

Number 28 "FOLLOWED BY FATE" FOUR-ACT DRAMA Draws an Intelligent and Appreciative Audience at Kansas City, Kansas High School Tuesday Tuesday evening the citizen of Kansas City were entertained, probably with the classiest drama that has ever been seen given by local talent in this city. The play was rendered by members of two popular clubs of our community—the Paramount and Trouveur clubs, both having excellent talent. It was a four-act drama, entitled, "Followed by Fate," and every character played their part and played it well. The cast of characters, were Robert Winslow, proprietor of "The Daily Review," Mr. Raymond Welton; Tad a news "devil", little Richard Tillman; Mr. Johnson, a reporter, Mr. Jerry Locke; Phoebe Ashcroft, stenographer for "Daily Review," Miss Daisy Whitfield; Walter Gifford, a reporter, Alvin Riley; Mrs. Ellison Dunbar-Everly-Griggs, unused to riches, Miss Bernice Scott; Lily May, her darling child, Miss Sirpora Miller; Seth Winslow, Robert Winslow's brother, Mr. William Davis; Ada Ludlow, an heiress, Miss Cecilia Kealing; Harold LaMott, an adventure, Mr. Franklin Bradley, Sallie Pockett, Phoebe's maid, Miss Roan. Each of these performers are well known to our community, a number of them efficient teachers in our graded, and high school and a large part of the others, Sumner graduates. Every one deserves special mention and while the house was not full, it was an audience of keen taste and appreciation. The Western University orchestra furnished the music, which was par excellence. The spirit, in which the play was given, was another big feature—the entire proceeds going to the building fund for the new Orphan's Children Home. These two clubs were given a great ovation, when Professor King and Miss Penelton, president of the board of directors, made talks thanking them for their services. HORTON, KANSAS Presiding Elder J. C. Hicks has made his second round to us this conference year. He held quarterly meeting at Sabetha, February 11, which was a great meeting and preached at Fairview on Monday when he preached a fine sermon and baptized two and then on to Horton, where he was given a rousing reception by the members and friends, although the community and church was saddened by the death of Sister Gay Fisher. While this was a short quarter good reports were made from all the charges on the circuit. Horton reported for the quarter $78.30; Fairview, $21.20 and Sabetha, $131.89, grand total, $231.39. All of the churches are in fine condition spiritually and the pastor, Rev. A. H. Hamilton, was complimented on the good work being done for Christ and humanity.

We have been offered by one concern 10,000 barrels of this oil per day for 40 cents per barrel, and some as low as 10 cents per barrel, A Pracess Worth Millions ” We-are the owners of a new and unused process by which this oit can be made into high grade asphalt, road oil and fuel oil and which process is protected from infringement and which has heen proven ta run the oil absolutely successful. We will show it to you and will also show you that Five Hundred barrels of this oil can berun one day in our plant, $500 for $100 Invested By this process we can show you that one barrel of this crude oil can be separated into asphalt, road oil and fuel oil so as to make a net profit of more than $2.00 per barrel. 7 A fifty barrel retort or stil! should separate four hundred barrels of - this oil in twenty-four hours. Four hurfdred barrels at $2.00 net per barrel is $800 per day or $24,000 per month or $288,000 per year which is more than 1500% on the original investment in 6ne year. At the above rate $100 invested in this company should yield you from $800 to $1200 per year. The possibilities are unlimited. Capacity can be doubled with a very small expense, Every dollar invested in this company is guaranteed against loss. THIS OPPORTUNITY WILL LAST LESS THAN THIRTY DAYS. Colored people have never had this opportunity before. The big elt of the oil biisiness is in the finished products. We sold more than 000 in sharés tlie first week.

WALKER YOUR WORST ENEMY IF YOU will make a searching and an impartial investigation of the matter, you will discover that your worst enemy is right at your elbow, seeking at crucial moments of your life to oppose your good efforts and circumvent your cherished plans. He is beside you in the morning when the gray light of dawn heralds the coming sun, biding an opportunity to strike you in a vital spot; he puts his arm in yours as you hurry down to the breakfast table, seeking to win your confidence; he passes with you through the street doorway as you hie away to your daily vocation, and if something has gone amiss in the dining room, he snuggles up closely and begins to whisper in your always willing ear especially chosen words of sympathy, telling you how you are imposed upon by others, to whom you should resentfully reply. By the time you reach your desk, your place behind the counter, your chair before the typewriter, your bench, or whatever estate you may occupy in the tower of toil, you are in a decidedly uncomfortable mood. And you have only to look around you to become irritable, quarrelsome and obdurate at another nudge from your pestering enemy, who seems reasonably sure that before the day is over you will hurl out a volley of fery vocables, scowl at the manager, which is becoming a habit, and return to your home at night with anger, disgusted with your intimates and with yourself as well. Nothing seems right. You are sure that nobody can be trusted. You are suspicious of manifest kindness and unselfish intentions. You are positive that those who proffer them are scheming for some terrible purpose, trying by friendly overtures in pleasant words and offers of assistance, to take some mean advantage of you. And this is the madness that generally leads to your undoing—the madness that your worst enemy, if permitted to work upon your sensibilities without restraint, invariably produces. If you will sit yourself down composely, at the end of a trying day, and reflect seriously, you may with but little difficulty guess who this enemy is. If guessing should be too irksome, in the mood you are, raise your eyes, to the mirror across the room and you will see in the polished glass your own perturbed self—your worst enemy! 1883, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate What. Indeed! Mother (to small daughter just home from a visit)—I am sorry to say your suit gives a very poor account of you: "Naughty, untidy, unpopular, untruthful, inclined to imp—" Daughter—Does auntie really write all that?

It was too late to start early." Rubber. Boots. Parents are beginning to learn the advantages of rubber boots for children, especially the shorter boots that flare a little at the top. In wet weather or after a heavy snow, it has been found, the boots will hold a great deal more water than shoes, golsshes or rickets, and will hold it a great deal longer.

Some of the medicines dispensed in the Seventeenth century were fearful and wonderful concoctions. Hunan skulls, bones, human fat, mummies, etc., were freely prescribed. At the deathbed of Charles II a preparation from a human skull was administered. The education of the pharmacist at this time was largely based on his trade experience, although some knowledge of Latin was required. The apprenticeship lasted from five to six years, and of the end of that time he became a "journeyman." On assuming control of a pharmacy as a proprietor, he was required to pass a supplementary examination. Pharmacy in America during the Seventeenth century was largely based on English usage modified by practices derived from the Indians. In Massachusetts, a great many clergymen practiced pharmacy for a means of livelihood, while preaching. Indians and old women also practiced it. The witchcraft epidemic brought the practitioners of pharmacy into suspicion as selling poison for spells. GOT OLD GENTLEMANS 'GOAT' College Boy's Expression Made Him Fear Money Had Been Wasted on His Education. Whenever old Ehen Toothaker doesn't understand what you say he says, "What say?" So do his neighbors. It is not strange that he doesn't understand his college boy son's way of asking the same question. Old Ehen's wife noticed that he was somewhat depressed the evening after the boy had got back to the farm from his first year at college. "What's the matter, Ehen?" she asked "Mary, I've spent nine hundred dollars on that boy's education, and I'm afraid it's wasted." said Ehen. "He don't know as much as he did when he went to college." "Why, what do you mean, father?" "Well, tonight I said to him that it looked to me 'sif it might rain tomorrow, and what do ye 'spose he said?" "Why, I don't know. What did he say?" "Well, sir, he begged my pardon!" —Youth's Companion. Kris and Santa. Mary Jane was riding in a back seat of the automobile on Christmas day. "Daddy!" she called out to the driver, "listen to me." Daddy obligingly listened and came a hard question: "Who brought Santa Claus his Christmas presents when he was a little boy?" Daddy had to give a plausible answer, but the best he could say was that Kris Kringle, who was Santa Claus' father-brought Santa his presents when he was a little boy, and this satisfied a curious four-year-old girl. He hoped nobody would pipe up and say that Kris Kringle was another name for Santa Claus. What Did He Get Then? Benny, small son of a Montgomery county family, is at the age when instruction on etiquette seems necessary. Sunday the family was invited out for dinner. While at the table, the hostess served Benny with a second piece of cake. On his noncommittal acceptance of the favor, he was admonished by his mother: "Now, what do you say, Benny?" Hastily gulping down the last fragment of the second slice, Benny replied, with difficulty: "Got any more?" — Indianapolis News. Endangers Fur Animals According to Dr. William T. Hornaday it takes 80 skins to make the average mlnk wrap, 200 for a squirrel coat and 280 for a black mole coat, 00 skins may go to the making of a striped skunk jacket and 800 to a silberian ermine wrap. Before many years, if the present rate of slaughter continues, many of our most interesting animals will be practically extinct; even now the trapper is forced rather afield, and skins once unmarketable are being used to supply the deficiency. —Scientific American. Settled "Well, want to marry my daughter, I suppose," snapped the grumpy old millionaire as he glowered at the young man before him. Then, adjusting his glasses, he added: "By the way, aren't you one of my daughter's former sultors?" "N-n-no, sir," faltered the timid youth. "Well, you are now," said the old grouch as he turned away. "Get out!"—Boston Transcript. Just a Bumble Meter "If I ask for 'set one thing, mother, can I be sure to get it?' quidely spoke Elise, the four-year-old member of the household.

'I want 'eat a toy store.'" An Advantage Sometimes "I'm going to have a fine time at New Year's," said one lady to another. "Mr. Higgins is coming to our party, and he is totally color-blind, you know." "Does his color-blindness add to your enjoyment?" asked her friend. "Rather I!" was the reply. "He thinks all the holly berries are mistletoe." By REV. J. R. SCHAFFER Director of Evening Classes, Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. TEXT—There was a famine in the land. —Genesis 12:6. How little we know of such an ex- périence. They would understand this in China, India or the Near East, but who of us has ever acked food for a day? Has any of us ever been really hungry? But gaunt, cruel fami- line stared Abram in the 'ace, and stood ready to de- vour him almost as soon as he stowed foot in the Near East, but who of us has everacked food for a day? Has any of us ever been really hungry? But gaunt, cruel famine stared Abram in the face, and stood ready to devour him almost as soon as he stepped foot in the land of promise. Abram had been called to a life of faith. God had made a wonderful covenant with him. He oleyled the call and became a pioneer in God's land. But before he could be of value as God's representative, a sample man of faith, he must be tested. So the famine came in the very place to which God had led him. God permitted him to suffer hunger to teach him that "man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." The famine wag God lifting His child of tender spiritual years upon His knees and teaching him that He is able to provide in the awful day of hunger. Ever since Abram's day God has found it necessary to permit dire need to come in the life of faith in order that His little children might learn lessons that only the schoolroom of His knee could disclose. Three lessons God would teach, through a famine in the land of His promises: 1. To Trust Him Wholly. God called Abram out of a life of self-confidence to one of absolute dependence. He left his old home and traveled to a new land. The journey was uneventful except for the death of his father, Terah. The presence of some of his relatives in the caravan suggests that Abram had not fully obeyed God. He may have thought so, but an experience must come to test whether he is shut up to God, or still trusting in human resources. "There was a famine in the land." What will Abram do? I can imagine he talked-it over with Sarah and Lot. Why not move to Egypt? Just the thing. Was God consulted? No. Abram acted upon the rule of the old life—sight and sense. Had he trusted God wholly; he would have thrown the responsibility for his provision upon the Omnipotent One who had led him to this family-striken country. How like Abram we are—so ready to follow human judgment and turn aside to the world for help. We seek counsel of men instead of God. Why? Because it is so much easier to trust the arm of flesh than to rely upon the Unseen. We sing, "God will take care of you" in prayer meeting, but are paralyzed with fear when something unusual happens (?) in our Cannan. Oh, to learn to trust God in the famine, in the dark, in the storm. "The eye of the Lord is upon them that fear Him, that hope in His mercy, to deliver their soul from death and to keep them alive in fortune." 2. To Know Ourselves Fully. The life of faith begins in a confession that we believe the Word of God, that what He has promised, He will perform. Our intentions are sincere, but they must be proved. At Sandy Hook the War department has its proving grounds. There the great guns upon which the fate of the nation may hang in the event of war, are tested. They are constructed to meet certain requirements. They will fire a shell weighing 1,000 pounds 16 miles. But they may not do as expected, so they are proved. A much larger charge of ammunition is used to see if they will stand the test. Some may go to pieces. How true of the man of faith. He must be proved. Conduct under stress and strain must be determined. The genuineness of faith must be attested beyond question. Blessed is the trial of faith that acquaints us with our weakness. It is "more precious than gold that perisheth." 3. To Help Others Truly. "All testing is for a testimony." Peter was violently shaken in the devil's sleeve not only to separate the wheat from the chaff, but in order that he might strengthen the brethren. The language of his epistles bears testimony to what he learned in the sifting process. What we have experienced helps others in need. How heartening the words, "He was tried in all points as we are, yet without sln." "Touched with a feeling of our intermitties," Christ is able to succor us in the hour of need and make a way of escape. Abram chose the path of compromise and lack of faith. This involved him in deceit and falsehood concerning his wife that would have cost his life but for divine interposition. The very peril he ran away from in Canann awaited him with wide open jaws in Egypt, but Got delivered unfaithful, unbelieving Abram. "If we believe not, He abideth faithful. What- encouragement for foolish, perverse, doubting disciples. Though we turn our back upon Him He will not cast us off, but brings us back to the place of the altar and the tent—to renewed confidence and fellowship even as Abram. Chapter 13:14. Prove a man is wrong in his views and you have made another enemy. The more mistakes a man makes the The more mistakes a man makes the easier it is for him to invent excuses. If the evil in men is visible it is an easy matter to overlook all the good. Try not have opinions; and you'll find it practically isn't necessary to talk. Frequent love makes a man think more of the girl than he does of himself. Psychoanalysis is useful also in helping one to overcome human dislikes. One thing a man can't understand is why his enemies have so many friends. A few years more and there will be no log cabins left for great men to be born in. A good mixer also finds out a great deal that is going on that isn't worth knowing. It is the same thing in fact, but in poetry it is sunset and in prose it is sundown. A plunge bath on rising is a certain means of chasing away drowsiness, but it's heroic. Quarrel about trifles if you really must. The less one has to quarrel about the better. In the course of one year's ordinary use a $5 gold piece loses 1½ per cent of its weight. A few men understand the currency problem, and the rest have to take their word for it. An old traveler never has the end of a heckle or a sock sticking out of his grip. He looks. WOULDN'T PAY FOR MATCHES Scotsman Not Likely to Expend a "Bawbee." When He Could Walk to His Hotel. A young Scotsman, shortly after his graduation from the University of Edinburgh, came to this country to teach. Thirty years later he revisited the country of his birth. On his return to his teaching post he was regaling some of his confreres with an account of his trip. "One morning," related the professor, "as I was strolling along a street in Edinburgh. I stopped at a tobaccoist's and bought some cigars. Finding myself out of matches I asked the clerk for some. "Ha'pence a box," said he. "What! Why, in America when a man buys a cigar he is given a small package of matches." "I'm sorry, slr, but they're ha'penny a box here." "And do you know." added the professor, "I had to walk back eight blocks to my hotel to get some matches."—Judge. Experte. Down in Pennsylvania a man decided to pull his own teeth. They bury him—dead from blood-poisoning. Ever ruin an article or botch a job by trying to do it yourself instead of summoning an expert? If you haven't you are an exceptionally wise or extraordinarily lucky person. This is an age of specialists. An old locksmith, asked to itemize a bill, did it in this way: "To opening safe, $5. To knowing how to open it, $5.5." Success has a hard time dodging the man who becomes an expert in any line—Buffalo Times. Oil Shales in America. In this country the largest oil shales are in the Rocky mountains, and belong to the Green river formation in northwestern Colorado, southwestern Wyoming and northwestern Utah. This formation contains beds up to 40 feet in thickness that will yield at least 35 gallons of crude oil to the ton. More thorough surveying and sampling is expected to discover thicker areas of equal or even greater richness. A recently discovered 20-foot seam yielded over sixty gallons of oil to the ton, by laboratory test. These shales will also yield to a ton upward to 20 pounds of ammonium sulphite, valuable for fertilizer purposes. Roadside Tragedy. A curious and informative accident was observed on Randolph street yesterday evening. A girl in short skirts and high Russian boots, wide-flaring at the top, was strolling down the sidewalk. A young man, passing her, casually threw away his lighted cigarette. The girl took five steps and then started kicking the left leg. In another moment she was dancing in a hysterical circle. The volunteer fire department helped her off with the left boot and removed the cigarette, with what was left of a charred silk stocking.—Chicago Post. The Blunderet. A certain hostess never can remember which of her friends know one another. The other day she was talking to an acquaintance and she did not realize that her visitor was the sister of a famous author whose manners are brusque. "Of course," said she, "I have known Mr. Blank (mentioning the author) for years. I knew him before he was married." "Oh, pen," responded the visitor, with polite interest. "It's more," continued the hostess, smiling sweetly, "he has no manners, but, then, of course, there isn't a single member of his family that has." Same caree little for the workman, but much for the work. Everybody knows how everybody else ought to do things. Self-admiration is apt to cause a man to stretch the truth. Seek out the little joys of the daily day and exaggerate them. The farming wealth of Canada is estimated at $7,000,000,000. And bachelors are as hard to understand as widows are easy. The price of liberty is eternal vigilance—payable in advance. If one likes a man, it is no effort at all to share his happiness. How foolish it is to kick when your neighbor calls you a donkey. Silver linings fall to interest the owner of an absent umbrella. PUBLICATION NOTICE. In the district Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas. C. Clayton, defendant.

THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE J. O. MIDNIGHT that love is the law of life and is nonsense for all human ill in (Continued from Page 1.) and he has won his place, and should be elevated. I then came in touch with Dr. John A. Gregg, president of Wilberforce University, and such fitted for the position. Dr. A. L. Gaines of Baltimore, who was right on hand and came on down here with us. He is ripe for the position. But there is another great man, an educator, a preacher, and carved out for the epsicopacy, the Rev. Dr. R. W. Mance, president of Allen University, and a man with the Christ spirit. He should be elected on the first ballot, but I will discuss him later, tell about the great work he is doing. I have not told you much about the meeting. Well it opened with a welcome reception in Bethel A. M. E. church, the building showing the wonderful work of Dr. Wiseman and his great ability. Bishop W. D. Chappelle, presided, and he was presented by the Rev. Nichols, one of the oldest ministers in South Carolina. Bishop Chappelle is a native of his state, and is the presiding bishop. Now I am not going to tell you details, for time and space will not permit these things to be done. The mayor of the city, delivered an address of welcome and when he concluded he introduced the governor of the state, Gov. McLeod, one great man, and he boasted of the fact that he was a Methodist and that he was a Christian. He had been reared in a Methodist family, and while he was born on this side of slavery, he had a black mammie who was also a Methodist and had much to do with his early Christian training. He believed in fair play, in law and order, and that all citizens should have a chance. He was governor of all. He said that no Christian would join a mob or deprive any man of his life and happiness. He just made a plain clean cut manly address, and /was roundly applauded. There were other speakers. But then came a great sermon Thursday morning at the opening, preached by that scholar, by that philosopher, by that sage of his race, Bishop Joshua-H. Jones, of Wilberforce, Ohio. His theme was, "The Best Thing in the World." He declared it was religion. Then he threw open the flood gates of his heart and poured out eloquence and thought. I would just give you a few lines from him. Here they are: "Professor Drummons, in one of the best books printed, says, 'Love is the greatest thing in the world.' I would qualify this statement by saying, that it is the greatest thing in the world when it becomes the law of action in the social order. Much has been said about race differences, and racials by way of finding a panacea. There is no panacea except the law of love applied to race relationships. Too many race questions or problems are sought to be settled. by human intellectual processes that are always colored by the feelings of human passion and human conceit which causes one race to hold itself above another and cherish unjust feelings, one toward the other, and with these human weaknesses they proceed to solve their problems while the fact is that their solution outside of the law of love put into practice in all our human relationships. It is good for the white man, it is good for the black man, it is good for the man of any race and is alone the cure for all ills and differences. "At the close of the world war, three of the most powerful men of the earth met in Paris and wrote the treaty of Versailles announcing gloriously to the world that they had arranged the instrument and scheme which would guarantee world peace and settle all racial and national questions. They were so full of opinion of their ability to lay down the principles and laws and conditions that would insure peace, tranquility and prosperity, that they did not mention the word, will or law of God in this great document which left the document so human and weak that before the ink was dry, war broke out which shows the frutility of the attempt of man to settle world questions without God and God's ways of settling them. "The world in its wisdom has tried many a scheme for the maintenance of peace and happiness, all of which have ignominously failed except the fundamental principles announced by the Man of Galilee. His dictum is Kansas City, Kansas Phone Fairfax 0442 that love is the law of life and is the panacea for all human ills in the social order." This was indeed a wonderful meeting and great things were accomplished for God and the human race. I wish you could have been there to have heard these addresses and to have seen these great people. The next secretary of church extension, Dr. S. J. Johnson of San Antonio was there, the secretary of missions, Dr. Noah Williams was on hand, and secretary of the financial department, Prof. John R. Hawkins was there, and so many others. Tell the readers that I am feeling much better. Even the man who pays as he goes may go broke. An irresistible impulse is one we yearn to follow. Luxury is apt to transform pleasures into burdens. The toy pistol in the hands of a child is a nuisance. The A. T.
