Moses Johnson, the treasurer of the building fund and turn over to him that you have in hand, that the Workmen may not be obstructed from his labor. I thank you so much for what you have done, and for what you are doing. Alas, I am afraid we are too slack, in supporting our treasurers. We are paying out too much money to the wrong class or classes, what we call sick dues, too many would be men join our lodges to be supported, to take them out of jail for crap shooting, boot legging, and breaking the laws that he promises to support and tooth ache, head ache, hurt, to lazy to work, and in fact is not fit to belong to any institution that have morals, for its motto. Stay away from the church mason, and do not care for the church mason, a lying mason, dishonest mason, a stealing mason, fighting mason, selfish mason, in fact no mason at all. No masonic lodge in the world promises to bury and take care of no mason when he can help himseft. We do assist, but not to carry them as a child, just get out of the way and let this mother lodge have a half of a show and mother, will not fail and will tell the true craftmen where to place the dejected stone, men jumping out of one into the other, like a leaping frog, therefore a leaping mason. A good mason can live anywhere you put him, and you cannot keep a good mason from the church. We look over, and around us, and find thousand pieces of men, and all the pieces not enough to make one mason. Greetings to all. Fraternally yours, J. A. BROADNAX, G.

C. MIDNIGHT MUCH INTERESTED WASHINGTON, D. C., April 17 Here I am this week in Washington, but I am not in the White House, but in the house of a president and this time it is President W. H. Jernagin, D. D., of the National Race Congress, a man whose whole life is wrapped up in his people, and I believe in my soul that he has spent more of his salary in developing the Race Congress than he has in his family, and he is not tired yet. The man who renders an unselfish service to a cause or people will have to tote the bag, and then he will have to spend his money while a few would be leaders, who tote the burden of the whole race around in their pocket can do nothing but criticise, and try to kill the man who is doing the work. It is an easy thing to find fault, and pick flaws, for they found fault with the Master whose mission on earth was to serve and to benefit mankind, but the men did not rest until they had killed him. But they could not keep him dead. He is still serving a thankless world. Here and there you find loyal followers, and I hope you are one of them. I think I told you that the Race Congress would meet here April 29, and remain in session until May 2, and people are going to be here from all parts of the country. Mt. Carmel Baptist church has thrown, open wide its doors and invited the Congress to come in and do something for the people. It is a church that believes in progress, and they have both a progressive and aggressive pastor, for Rev. W. H. Jernagin, is the pastor, and his church stands right back of him in anything that menas progress, anything that he (Concluded next week.) 6.95 --- PAGE TWO THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE THOMAS KENNEDY, Editor and Proprietor.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. Florida will come to the battle ground of the General Conference of the A. M. E. church, at Louisville, in full force to take back to her orange fields and ever-blooming flowers a bishop; Rev. R. A. Grant, D. D., treasurer of Edward Water's college. Dr. Grant has the backing of his conference. His life has been spent in the church and is now one of the leading presiding elders of that great state on the gulf. He will also come to the General Conference, with the state delegation behind his candidacy for the high exalted honors of this office. Rev. Andrew H. Hill, D. D., of Arkansas and pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church, Little Rock, and one of the strongest pulpateers in the connection, will come before the General Conference at Louisville for the highest honors in the African Methodist Episcopal church, the bishopic. Dr. Hill is a brilliant polished Christian scholar and no one knows and have heard him can say otherwise. He is a man who makes but little fuss among the brethren, but does things that count for the church and humanity. Dr. Hill is one of the men that has come from the smallest of missions in his state to the metropolitan churches of his conferences. For eight years he was president of Shorter College of Little Rock and is now dean of the theeological department. As a church builder and financier, he has few equals.

Parks, presiding bishop of the Fifth Episcopal district filled the pulpit at the eleven o'clock service, to a packed audience.

His text, "And as He Went, they Spread Their Clothes in the Way." St. Luke 19:36. Subject "Christ Trumphant." The congregation was in tears at times and may let the spirit have full liberty. Western University choral choir, under supervision and instruction of Mrs. Tate Baily, gave a sacred program at 7:30, with Mr. Adair at the pipe organ. It was high class in every number of the 31 voices. They received from the fine audience many expressions, in many ways their hearty appreciatino.

THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES A large number attended Metropolitan Baptist church Sunday, April 13th. The Sunday school was interesting and large. At 11 a. m., pastor Bronson preached on the subject "Black Sheep," and illustrated with the picture of a black sheep with a man's head; also, with a picture of a serpent with feet, representing our adversary, Satan, who is going up and down the earth seeking persons to deceive. The B. Y. P. U. was good and some on program were Mr. Reese with a Bibile talk, and Mrs. Alice Smith, with a short poem she composed, and practiced before Mrs. Matthews, and recited it well; and received much applause. At 8 p. m. the choir sang the anthem, "Behold God is Mighty" and our Pastor preached on "Satan's Message on Sensuality." He impressed his hearers that Christians must live better than other people. The choir then sang "Throw out the Life Line." Next Sunday, April 20, is Easter, and after a great Resurrection Sermon at 11 a. m., at night the Sunday school will render an Easter program.
