--- KANSAS Vol. X NEBRASKA ANNUAL CONFERENCE CLOSES MOST SUCCESSFUL YEAR'S WORK Many Transfers Sprung—Some Sur- Prices, But Generally Satisfactory. Two Leading Charges in Conference Left Open and One Presiding Elder District—Delegates to General Conference—W. C. Williams and J. F. Griffin. Next Sess- sion at Omaha. The Third Session of the Nebraska Conference, the baby conference of the Fifth Episcopal District, closed Sunday night at First A. M. E. church, corner of Eighth street and Nebraska avenue, Bishop H. Blanton Parks presiding. While Sunday was very inclement and stormy a great concourse of people attended all the services throughout the day and the church was crowded to the doors Sunday night to hear a sermon by Rev. Fred Divers and the appointments. Six joined the church during the day, including three accepting Christ for the first time. Bishop Parks preached to a large audience at 11 o'clock at which time five ministers were ordained: Rev. R. S. Rhone, U. G. Hickman, S. W. Henderson, as elders and A. H. Hamilton and Wm. Camper, deacons.. The sermon, which was to these young ministers, who at the close received their ordination, was one of the strongest and most impressive to a class that the good bishop ever delivered. The entire congregation was on fire. The Baby Conference showed wonderful strength in her financial reports. Dollar money reported, $3,-238.40; educational money, over $2,-200.00; Missionary, over $1,000. The Nebraska conference, so far leads those held in the Episcopal district.

With the Five Points district turned into a scene of beauty by the most gorgeous decorations ever known to that section, and with hundreds of strangers passing to and from the Grand Lodge session of the Fifty-sixth Annual Convention of the King Solomon Craft and Grand Courts of Free and Accepted York Masons of Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado and Minnesota Jurisdiction, opened in Fern hall, Monday. With King Solomon Lodge convened Sunset Lodge No. 98; Silver Cord Lodge No. 104; Golden Star No. 103; Risen Sun No. 102; Queen of Sheba Court, No. 98, and Naomi No. 99. Grand Master J. A. Broadnax of Kansas City presided over the session of the Grand Lodge and Sister D. F. Cummings, most ancient grand matron of Kansas City, presided over the Grand Temple. From the standpoint of numbers and enthusiasm Denver has never entertained a more prominent gathering. To the same extent that the Elks are invading Chicago and the N. A. A. C. P., Kansas City, this week, the York Rite Masons swept down upon Denver and were at once given the keys of the city by Mayor B. F. Stapleton. A royal welcome was extended them on every hand and many high class entertainments have been given in their honor. We are proud to see such a distinctive recognition officially given one of our grand lodge affairs. It definitely marks our citizenship and right to the full participation in the affairs of local government. We hope and believe much good will come from the meeting of the Masonic brethren in Denver. They will come to know us better and we can the better gauge the influence for good that may accrue from their purpose and principles.—Denver Daily Tribune.

Number 6 TWO MINISTERS DIE SUDDENLY AT NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVEN TION, ONE A KANSAS DIVINE A Great Gloom Spread Over the City When the News Flashed that Two Heroes of the Cross Had Passed Out San Francisco, Sept. 20.—It behooves a man to be ready at all times and under all circumstances, for he knows not when the last will come, or when he will be called upon to meet God. One by one we are passing out. I have been to the National Baptist convention, one of the greatest sessions in the history of that great organization, but we have been called upon in the midst of the convention to pause and pay tribute to two men who like President Harding, went to sleep in California. Early Thursday morning of last week it was flashed over the city of Los Angeles, "Rev. J. H. Van Lue of Kansas is dead." Can it be true? was the question I asked, and I went over to the undertaking parlors and there I saw his life form prepared for that long eternal rest, and to be returned to "Mother Earth," from which it came, while the spirit had already gone to the God who gave it. Rev. Van Lue was one of the leaders in the work among the Baptists in Kansas. He was at the head of the missionary department of the state, which position he had held for a number of years. With the delegation of his state, he left for the convention full of plans, full of a desire to do something for the God who had given him life and vitality, full of a desire to do something for the denomination and to serve the race. But bright and early one morning the summons came and he had only to fold his arms and return home. Just as the cortege was entering the convention tent, news came that death had suddenly laid hands on another hero of the cross, the Rev. Dr. J. M. Harris of Texarkana, one of the best known men in Arkansas, and who had held the position of treasurer of the convention for over a quarter of a century. He was serving on committee of finance, for the National Baptist convention when the summons came. He was taken very sick and said to someone "carry me to a doctor." They started (Continued on Page 4.) Miss Evon Adams, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. R. A. Adams of 634 Franklin avenue, and a graduate of Sumner high school, left last Sunday for Wilberforce, O., where she will enter Wilberforce University. Her father is a graduate of this noted race school. The North Missouri Annual conference is being held this week at St. Joseph, Mo., Bishop H. B. Parks presiding. The South West Missouri conference will open next Wednesday morning at Allen Chapel, Kansas City, Mo. Mr. and Mrs. Daniels and daughter Ruth, of Splitlog avenue, had a very pleasant stay in Chiicago, with Mrs. Daniels' cousin, Mrs. Charliema Rollins, 3700 Ellis avenue. From there they went to St. Paul, Minn., and spent several days with friends, then to Winnipeg, Canada, where they visited friends. Mrs. Daniels and daughter remained in St. Paul, where she entered Ruth in High school and Mrs. Daniels' is taking a course in ladies tailoring. Mrs. Daniels is a subscriber to the Advocate. Mrs. Ed Ransom of Wichita returned home Thursday after visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Crawford, 1131 Everrett avenue, and other relations here for two weeks. THE KANSAS CITY ‘ADVOCATE .

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR I DUE. ‘Whatever might be said in the way of criticism as to the legality of the Free and Accepted Ancient York Masons (national compact), Prince Hall origin, this credit must be given them, that second only to the great American Woodmen Conclave here in 1921 was their decorations of the streets. They did what no secret order has ever done within our mem- ory, and that was to secure city aid without the endorsement of any of the civic bodies. Out of the main influence Mr. Wm. Warren did such a substantial honor flow. The Den- ver Star readily takes off its hat to such a man and to such an effort. ‘Whether we believed in them or not, our civic pride compels us to recog- nize this public spirit shown, this “love to do for our city and the re- sult of their effort. The legal issues will be fought out and through the courts, but any kind of a conventior or a gathering that will bring people to Denver in numbers and have them spend their hard-earned money with our business people, is wel. comed to our city. The strangers within our gates are not wholly re. sponsible for their being here or being in the condition that they may be in, but they are here and they are Denver’s guests. And as guest: of our city, let us join in and make them feel happy and welcome. Or behalf of our city did Commissione: Rice Means welcome them so enthusi astically and generously that some of the delegates decided to remait in Denver.

York Masons did honor to themselves and gave mew hope and encouragement te those who are laboring hard for the preservation and stability of their Fraternal Order, when they held their monster parade last Thursday which formed one of the principal features during the holding of thei convention here this week.

Rev. E. M. Moseley, Pastor. Our services were not well attend- ed as usual September 15 on account of the inclemency of the weather, yet we had a good gathering. The Sun- day School was lively attended 9s ever. At 11:40 Brother W. T. Thom- as preached from 18th chapter of I Kings, 21 verse, “How Long Halt Ye Between Two Opinions? if the Lord be God Follow Him but If Baal Then Follow Him.” And the people answered him “Not a Word.” Subject “Choice.” He pictured our serving of idols and pleasure as Baal and our service to Jesus Christ as follow- ing Elijah’s example. He preached a good sermon and all enjoyed his remarks, At 8 p. m., our pastor hav- ing arrived from the National Con- vention, all were eager to hear ‘a few remarks from him, bat he was very worried from his long ride and Brother S. Thorton preached a good sermon for us. His discourse was taken from James 5, 18, “And He Prayed Again, and the Heaven Gave Rain.” Subject “Pray Again.” He Imade great stress on the valué of Elijah’s prayer and faith causing the long famine to end, and great value of praying again for God’s blessing. We all enjoyed his ser- mon. The Pastor made some very interesting remarks about what he saw and heard on his journey to the great convention and all enjoyed his remarks and presence. The mem: bers and friends attempted to give a reception on Friday night, Septem- ‘ber 14, but were disappointed on account of the delay of the pastor's train in reaching Kansas City at that time, although all enjoyed them- selves nicely. On Monday night the ‘members and friends gave a grand surprise reception at the pastor’s home and we indeed had a gran¢ |time. We learn that Brother Baskir was called away to visit the sick- bed of his father. We hope he is better.

He reached the office of the physician, but before a word could be said, he gasped and passed away. God's will is not ours, for we would have retained both of them. Just as we were going in session, Noah D. Thompson said to me: "Charles Alexander died this morning." There is another one of the great men of the race who has passed away. He was well known throughout the country. A wonderful writer and author, but he had to respond to the call, and is with us no more.. I am sure the country will be sorrow to learn of his death. I did not learn the particulars, but he has gone with us, or from us. I am still in California, and whether I will get out of the state we shall await orders. I started to Ogden, Salt Lake City, with the crowd on that special wagon, I told you about in my last letter, composed of Pullmans and special observation carriages and bed cars. We left Los Angeles about 2:30 Tuesday morning. We made several stops on the road, and reached this city Tuesday night, where we parked, and went to bed, up next morning to see the town. I tramped all night, returned to the carriage at 7:30, found myself sick, hence I parked my whole frame and toted it over to the Stanford hospital, a part of the Leland-Stanford hospital, and here I am in for repairs, and in the regular repair shop. I had the pleasure of knowing Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Bowyer, who live at 2462 Clay street, and who are great friends of mine. Mr. Bowyer comes from British West Indies, known as Jamacia, while his wife was born right here in the United States in a little town known as Chicago, Illinois. They are happy and have a fine home, and threw open their doors to welcome me, and when I went to the hospital Mrs. Bowyer went over there with me. I shall leave as soon as the doctors get through with me, which will be before you can get through reading this letter. I will not be well, but will be going to get treated. I am sure that you are praying for me, and if I should be called home at this time with the other men who have gone, and like President Harding leave from California, you will go and say a word for me, for I have lived well today. Now you will permit me to turn attention to this letter business again. During my stay in California, or at least in Los Angeles, I was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Elijah Cooper, and I had a few things to say about him while there. I had the pleasure of meeting President and Mrs. A. E. Malone of Poro college. They visited the National Baptist convention, and were introduced. Mr. Malone was the speaker for the family, and honey I am here to tell you that he made a short, interesting talk to the people. They were given an ovation. The Baptists recognized their worth to the country. I am sure that you have heard of the toilet articles they are now turning out, and Dr. M. W. Thornton, who is to be a bishop in the A. M. E. church and who is now pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church, New York, says it is the finest and best soap he has ever used, and if they only turned out that toilet soap they would be serving humanity and the race. People are just that loud about praising their toilet articles. I mean their powder, their cold cream, vanishing cream, talcum, deodorant and something else. Seeking better health, Professor and Mrs. Aaron E. Malone have spent the summer in California and he returned to Illinois to attend the Illinois conference which is in session this week. He is devoted to his church and is a delegate to the General Conference which meets in Louisville, Kentucky, next May. He will have much to say about affairs there and will vote for some of the men who will be made bishop. Speaking of bishop, I am informed that it is being broadcasted that Bishop I. N. Ross has labored hard for his church, and because of his physical condition they want to vote him a rest, but I do not know whether or not this is true. I do know that Rev. C. W. Abington is before the church for the position of secretary of Missionary Department of his church, and he will carry it. At the National Baptist convention I had the pleasure of meeting two distinguished newspaper men from Dallas, Clarence Starks, editor-in-chief, and Professor Rice, managing editor, of the Dallas Express. They came all the way to California to see the National Baptist convention in session. They were there and had one more fine time. The National Baptist convention is now at work in earnest to complete THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE the building for the Sunday School Publishing Board which is costing them just $350,000. Windham Brothers are working hard and the Baptists will work on the money raising. Dr. A. F. Townsend, the secretary, is now on the war path, so to speak. He is calling on all loyal Baptists to do their part. This will be a monument erected to the Baptists of America and will be owned not by a Board, but by the National Baptist convention. The next session of the convention will go to Nashville, for the purpose of dedicating the building. This will be a great time and I hope you are going to be there. When Dr. E. P. Jones, then of Vicksburg, Mississippi, headed a crowd of men and women in Chicago, walked out and established, what he termed National Baptist Convention unincorporated, he then thought that he was making a lifetime job, but when his convention, met in Fort Worth and voted him out and voted in the Rev. J. E. Woods of Kentucky, then the same Dr. E. P. Jones got him another crowd, went to the Methodist church and organized another convention, I am told, but I have not been told what it will be called. I will, as soon as I return to the United States, get the particulars and let you know. I know that Doctor Edward P. Jones is a tricky fellow and he is still tricking. A horse that will kick in a buggy will also kick in a cart. I am not going to comment on this. In the session of the National Baptist convention, there was peace and harmony. The Baptists are satisfied with Dr. L. K. Williams of Chicago, and are willing to follow his lead. It is a great thing to get in the hearts of the people. I told you that President King, of the Virginia Baptists, was on hand, and he assured the Baptists that Virginia was there to help carry on the good work. I think I will have to bring this letter to a stop, although I am not through, and according to the information I have taken into my head I will not get through for time to come. I will soon be with the good people in Texas and other places. Pray for me if you have the time. This is a busy world. J. O. MIDNIGHT. PUBLICATION NOTICE.

E. A. SHACKELFORD, Attorney for Plaintiff. (First published September 21, 1923) Opportunity Was His. For years there was a playwright around London who had more venom than ability. He could always pick a success to pieces and invariably did. But he had never produced a success of his own. One night at the Savage club he became so foolish as to attack the Immortal bard of Avon. "Shakespeare," he sputtered, "lifted half his plots." This was too much for an old critic, who came back at him in a flash. "Then lift one of his and write a play around it. Show him up." Artificial Marble. Synthetic marble, capable of taking a high polish, has been made recently, according to a report to the British Chemical society, by heating hydrated sodium carbonate and calcium chloride, or a paste of precipitated chalk and a solution of common salt, for eight hours at a temperature of 300 degrees centigrade and a pressure of 24 atmospheres. Something to Be Thankful For. Dancing on the sidewalk, a little girl sang merrily: "I am glad to hear it," he remarked. "Evidently no profiteers will get hold of her product." Never Too Old. Alice—As people grow old I like to see them still keep up with the fashions. Agnes—Yes, we never grow too old to acquire the latest wrinkle. Uncle Eben. "A busy man," said Uncle Eben. "Is liable to be unpopular, because even loafer regards him as settin' example." Caller—Oh, well, tell him I hope in blindness is only temporary.
