Vol. XI MIDNIGHT NOT IN SHAPE TO RIDE THE IRON HORSE MIDNIGHT NOT IN SHAPE TO RIDE THE IRON HORSE Park Sanitarium, Guthrie, Okla., July 9—It is going to take a little time to get in shape for riding the iron horse, but take it easy and I assure you that you will not walk or ride, them golden street yet awhile," were the kind loving words of Dr. H. W. Conrad to me the other day, and while I found tears in my eyes, I have decided to wait on the action of the Lord and leave the rest to Dr. Conrad. While other people are suffering with hot weather, I am just here basking in the shade and a nice cool room in this fine resort, and I thank God that hath given to us such a man as Dr. Horace W. Conrad, the sole owner and proprietor of the Park Sanitarium. You must not expect me to tell you what it is like, for I am without the power to put my words in shape. If you have ever been to any of the great places, you have it before you. A combination of the National Health Resort, Hot Springs; Mayo Brothers up in Minnesota; Battle Creek Michigan and Johns Hopkins. You have them all in this place, and what takes the rag off of the bush, it belongs to us. I believe in my soul that Horace W. Conrad was born to be a doctor, or was commissioned by our Heavenly Father to do this work, just as He calls men to the ministry. His father who lived back yonder in Kentucky, was a great physician. I use to know him when I was a boy back yonder in Kentucky. When he was called to his eternal reward his mantle piece fell on his son, and that boy declared that if he was called to doctor, he was at the same time called to prepare. He got first of all a solid college education, graduating with a college degree, and then he got the doctor education coming out of one of the best schools—no not one but several of them. I am not going to tell you about him, but I am here to say that he was a doctor in Paris, Kentucky, and other places, and then the hand of God directed him to this place. That is to Oklahoma, and a place where he was most needed. His wonderful skill and ability was soon known, and the people flocked to him. His office was not able to accommodate the people with ailments, so he was not born with wealth, but faith and ambition were his assets. He leased a quaint odd looking building, near the Santa Fe stable. White folks had used it for hotel, for school, for this that and the other. They had on it a wonderful well, and it was found that the water was good to help sick people get well. Dr. Conrad discovered all this, and he leased the building—the park, and later he contracted for it, bought it and has made improvements on it, from time to time. When you enter this building, you are not going into a palace, but a clean, neat, well kept building, away from noise, and just like going into a country home, except they have baths, electric lights, chickens by the hundreds, garden from which they get their vegetables for the sick, courteous, polite help, well trained nurses. I have mentioned before Miss Edna R. Marchand, the head nurse from New Orleans, a graduate from Douglass, and the house attendant is Miss Junita Williams, who is a college student in Kansas, and she is doing good work. They come here crippled, lame, sick and dying, shot and cut, on their way to both worlds beyond this one, and some of them Dr. Conrad checks and tells them to stay a little longer. He convinces them if heaven is their home they are not home sick. That if they are bound for the clime of perpetual summer they had better tarry and have a little more ice cream and sherbert down here, for the wind was never known to blow down there and ice is unknown. They come here from all parts of Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Illinois, and other states. They come even from Kentucky, for all physicians declare that H. W. Conrad is the last word. When he tells you a thing you can bank on it. He knows the game in all of its phases. Now you want to know more about me. I have been here now two weeks and I am getting better. Upon reaching here I had to go to the broadcasting station, and that was the first step. I then went into the office of Dr. Conrad, and he began his work of examining me, and had me THOMAS KENNEDY EDITOR AND PUBLISHER toted to my special room, No. 4. Then came Miss Marchand, who put a piece of glass candy in my mouth, held my arm to keep me from eating it. She did not seem to know that I did not eat with my arm. At any rate she took it out, wrote on a piece of paper and went about her business. Now here comes Sylvester Frazier, who ordered me to get out of bed and follow him. I wondered what in the hen feathers he was going to do. Into a bathroom. I must have been talking, and if I were a could not tell because I had a bad cold. He gave me a bath inside and out just like I was a baby, and then he put me on the cooling table, had me to cool off, and then honey he ran over me something which grunted like it had some kind of aches in the front of its back. He called it a vibrator. He had been doing that thing every day to me. I sleep with my feet suspended way up in the air, far above my head, and I have to stay on my back. These are some of the things they are doing to me here to get me well. They cut you open here and fix you back together—yes, they do all kinds of cutting here called surgery. Dr. J. E. Perry, of Kansas City, is the main cutter, and he is at the head of the class. This is country life and this is get well life here. I have told you about that wonderful woman, Mrs. H. W. Conrad. She is a genius, but just now her health has failed. She is not as active as she used to be, but that wonderful brain of hers work all the time. She is the business end of the sanitarium and a wonderful business woman. For years she has stood right by the side of her husband. They work together in unity, and are helping humanity. Tell your readers, Col. J. O. Midnight is in the best place and is getting the best treatment, and he is going to get well, and not die yet, although he is nearing the brink. He will cross over some day, and you will miss him. I have told you about Dr. Pauline E. Dinkins, before. She is one of the physicians of this race of ours who is making good in the world. She is now in charge of the Brewer hospital, Greenwood, South Carolina, a hospital under the American Missionary Association of New York. She is the daughter of a noted educator, the late C. S. Dinkins, of Selma University, and she got her A. B. from Hartshorn college, Richmond, Virginia, and she took the medical education from the Woman's Medical college of Pennsylvania, located in Philadelphia, and then she returned to Alabama, where she had out her shingle for 6 years, doing good work and had a large practice. She accepted a call to this school recently, and while I say school I have in mind this practical up-to-date hospital, well equipped to do the work of taking care of the sick. She is a remarkable young woman. While I am here, the people are getting ready to attend big meetings. The National Negro Business League is going to meet in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and I fear that I will not be there. The Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias will meet in Louisville, Ky., Both of these big bodies will meet the same week. The Supreme Lodge on August 17, and the Business League August 19. You should be there. The people of Oklahoma are going to give a big time. When you get through with these meetings then be ready for the National Baptist convention in Baltimore in September. Be there for yourself. A letter from Dr. A. M. Townsend, of the Sunday School Publishing Board, of the National Baptist convention, informs me that the building is nearing completion, and it will be the greatest in America of its kind. There is to be a great session of the convention in Baltimore. They have selected some real strong men to go on the program. I am not going to try to tell it all. Since I have been here, Rev. F. W. Penick, and his wife have been here to see me. They came all the way down here to pay their respects to me, and then there came along Mrs. Bangamin, from Oklahoma City, and Rev. E. W. Perry, Miss Luella Lawson, one of the Oklahoma City teachers and others. I am having company. They have brought me some fruit. You must take good care of yourself. Did you see where Prof. W. G. Pearson, of Durham, N. C., gave $25,000 to Kittrell college? He is one of the men of our race—in fact he is principal of the Durham school and a wonderful man. He is showing what we should do. He is teaching in a practical way the doctrine of self-help.

YOUR HONOR WASHINGTON LETTER Inter-Racial Cooperation in Tennessee Washington, D. C., July 9.—The annual report of the Inter-Racial League of Tennessee, made public just before the close of last month, shows that the State is now better organized for cooperative effort between the races than at any time in the history of the movement in that State. In addition to the duly-constituted city and county committees there are over three thousand five hundred colored-people who have taken out membership in the league during the year at one dollar per year, and are easily reached through the state office. A total of $7,595.30 was raised for inter-racial purposes during the past fiscal year. The movement has succeeded in the promotion of good will and understanding between the races, and scores of state, county and city officials give it their hearty endorsement and pursue liberal policies in their respective departments. Certain elements in the two races, it is said, have not been able to defeat the purposes of the movement, and it continues to be a growing influence in improving racial attitudes in the communities of the Commonwealth. Twenty-one counties of Tennessee report the holding of enthusiastic conferences, with financial pledges by white and colored attendants and the report of Treasurer J. C. Napier formerly Register of the United States Treasurer, shows total receipts during the year of $3,844.30 with a cash balance on hand, as of June 9th, of $570.76. Mrs. H. G. Dwggius returned from Alton, Ill., where she was summoned to attend the funeral of her sister's husband, Rev. S. P. Cole, formerly a minister of St. Louis, but recently moved to Alton, where he entered Shurtleff college. The "Alton Telegraph News" reported him a real race man and an educator and destined to be a great leader had he lived. He taught in the Dunbar and Lovejoy schools for years and worked ardously to lift his group to the higher ideals and standards. Rev. Corhan of St. Louis delivered the eulogy. He is showing to the world that the Negro is able to do more than mere talk. I notice charges and counter charges are being made through the press in the Odd Fellows Ranks in Texas, and after it is all over what will be the result. Just one thing, the business of the order will be in the mouths of the public, perhaps some one's character hurt. Newspaper is not a court of trial. We are too prone to want to air our business in the press. Go on with the hog killing. Carry along a tub to get the chitterlings. The world is still full of dumpholes, and if you will just keep your mouth and eyes open you are sure to find them. I want to congratulate Prof. E. E. Weaver. He is now in charge of the vocational school of Kansas. I will talk about him later. J. O. MIDNIGHT. ADVOCATE NEGRO NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL CONGRESS TO CONVENE HERE IN AUGUST NEGRO NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL CONGRESS TO CONVENE HERE IN AUGUST The 27th anniversary convention of the Negro National Educational congress will be held in greater Kansas City, Mo., and Kans., Aug. 24 to 29, 1925. Governors of 42 states will appoint delegates from their representative Negro citizens to attend this convention. The aim and purpose of the Congress is to aid in lifting the standard of Negro citizenship up to the highest ideals and bring about better relations between the dominant racial groups. Many prominent speakers will address the convention. Many important topics will be discussed namely: "Is the lack of unity among our people responsible for the existence of the intolerable condition that confronts the race? Is there anything wrong with Negro education in this country? Can the crime wave of the youth be checked? Many thoughtful men and women hold that the greatest impediment in the civilization of today is jealously. How can it be eliminated? Will our plea at the bar of public opinion, for Life, Liberty and Justice go unheard? These discussions will prove, invaluable aids in solving problems and reaching higher grounds in American civilization. The Congress feel gratified over its 26 years and the results of its work and solicit the co-operation of every man and women interested in the progress and growth of the youth to attend the session. Mr. Thos. Kennedy, editor of the Advocate, was elected chief of the Kansas side, Com. Lawyer Knox of the Mo. Com. These committees are expecting to function jointly. Every citizen is requested to catch the vision of this worthy cause and help make it all the name implies and the greatest session ever held in the history of the Congress. Remember the congress is rich in possibilities, worthy of the time and energy you expend in attending and will call forth the united effort and power of the race in order to succeed. COLORED FAMILY ORDERED TO MOVE. Crowd of 400 Gives Family 12 Hours to Leave Neighborhood. About four hundred citizens of Kansas City, Kansas Wednesday night appeared at a small house at Eighth street and Armstrong avenue, and ordered a colored family, which had moved in a short time before from Oklahoma, to leave the neighborhood within twelve hours. The family promised to move to another location. The house is one of a group of three houses owned by Mrs. H. M. Jeanneret, 830 Armstrong avenue.

Pastor Bronson preached well at both services. The Sunday school is large and is doing fine. The B. Y. P. U. is also doing well. At 8 p.m., Pastor Bronson preached a nice short-sermon and Mrs. Johnson, the national gospel singer led in many songs. Many were overjoyed at the covenant meeting and many Christians testified. One of the prettiest songs, sung sweetly and not too loud, was "Where He Leads Me, I Will Follow," by a choir member as her testimony. After the offertory, communion was announced, and hundreds took the Lord's supper. Many beautiful appropriate hymns were sung while the preparations were being made. Singing is the best part of the service, if not too loud, and if songs of our Savior are rendered. After the Lord's supper, they sang a hymn and went out as they did over 1925 years ago. Next Sunday, July 12, good sermons and good choir music will be rendered. Come to Metropolitan which seats more than any church of our race in the city. Mrs. Mann, whose wrist was badly hurt, was able to be at church Sunday. Ten or twelve distinguished visitors from Wichita, who were visiting Mr. and Mrs. Hulsey, attended morning service. Dr. Bronson started teaching in the Industrial School's Bible Institute of ten days at Topeka. He will be here this Sunday to preach, though. Metropolitan church had the first pipe organ, has the only grand piano and the first playground. NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT Case No. 12295 State of Kansas, County of Wyandotte, ss.
