From the Philadelphia Bulletin. Among the honors which France has bestowed upon American soldiers none is more interesting than the "citation" by which the entire 365th Regiment is given the coveted Croix de Guerre or war cross. This regiment was composed wholly of Negroes, although the higher officers were white men of long military experience. Originally a New York unit, its recruits came from many states. The citation is for gallantry in the September and October offensive in the Champagne sector, and while it deals in considerable detail with the valor of particular officers, it praises the courage and tenacity of the whole regiment, which suffered heavy losses. Only a few regiments have received such distinction, for the French are chary about distributing honors lest they become cheap. The incident illustrates the lack of apple groves, the Star Spangled Banner. J. R. E. LEE, Principal MR. AND MRS. A. E. MALONE OF PORO COLLEGE IN CITY. Kansas City was favored with an unexpected visit from Prof. and Mrs. A. E. Malone, founders and owners of Poro system and the great Poro Building in St. Louis, which is the greatest structure owned by Negroes in America. They were accompanied by their charming neice, Miss Vernice Moody, and in company with the Editor attended morning service at Allen Chapel, where they were presented by the minister, Dr. William H. Thomas, and each made brief but helpful remarks. In the afteroom Mr. Malone, who is chairman of the Negro State Republican Auxiliary, held a conference with a large number of the Republican leaders of the city at the office of the Kansas City Sun and a large delegation was selected to go to St. Louis today to attend a State Conference of Republican Negroes. They were entertained while here at the home of the Editor and Mrs. Crews, 2624 Highland avenue. SCHOOL EXTENSION MUSICAL CONCERT NOON, 3:00 O'CLOCK, BRY 5, 1919.

It has been said that in the first year of the war France would have been defeated had it not been for the services— largely voluntary—of African troops, who rushed to her aid and displayed prodigies of valor. They broke the German line and reached the open, but lacking support, had to retire. All Kansas City was painfully shocked last Sunday when the news flashed over the city that Miss Victoria E. Overall, one of the most popular teachers that ever taught in the Kansas City Schools, had passed away. Miss Overall and her sister, Mrs. A. J. Nash, had taught in the Kansas City Schools for more than twenty years and during the past year Miss Overall has been devoting all her spare time to the care of her sister, Mrs. Nash, who had a physical breakdown more than a year ago, and who only lost her husband quite recently. Miss Overall leaves, besides her sister, a brother, Guy Overall, who lives in Idaho and who is expect- PROGRAM Kansas City State ecora Sun S VISIT [Image of a young woman with dark hair and a white dress with a floral pattern.] The Race's Greatest Business Woman ed in time for the funeral. Miss Overall was loved by all who knew her and especially by the young people with whom she was a prime favorite and whose pleasure was always her consideration. She was a loyal supporter of every movement for racial uplift in this community and Kansas City possesses few women who have been of more real benefit to their people than Miss Overall. The funeral will be held at 10:00 o'clock this morning from the St. Augustine P. E. Church. The Sun extends its sympathy to the bereaved family. TAG DAY AFTERMATH. Additional Amounts Reported Since Last Week's Publication. Collections still continue to come in from the Tag Day held December 24 and Chairman Lee is still receiving responses to his appeal sent out to the prominent white people of the city. The total receipts are over $2,600.00, a most surprising total when one remembers the awful weather in which our noble band of women had to work that day. Quite a few delinquent subscribers to the original Wheatley-Provident fund are paying up their subscriptions and as one lady said the other day she considered it a sacred obligation that must be met, Mr. H. W. Miller had never received credit for his voluntary contribution of five dollars dedication day and his name has been added to the list.

The part taken by the Tenth Cavalry in the recent affair against hostile Mexicans at Nogales, Arizona, was the occasion for a Review and Inspection of the command at Fort Huachuca, Arizona, on December 14, 1918. It has been the desire of both officers and men of this regiment to add to the laurels already won on the field of battle in former campaigns and wars. That the regiment was not permitted to go overseas in the present conflict was a source of deep regret to all concerned. The wisdom of keeping this organization on duty on the International Boundary Line was demonstrated by the events of August 27th, 1918. Through some misunderstanding, American troops were fired upon by hostile Mexicans at Nogales, Arizona, on August 27th, 1918. The true facts leading up to the trouble will never be known. The Tenth Cavalry, although not actually among those present when hostilities commenced, were the first to come to the aid of the detachment fired upon. When the troops of the 10th Cavalry arrived on the scene the Mexicans had secured shelter in some houses and were pouring a desutory fire upon the American troops from across the International Line. While trying to dislodge the Mexicans from these houses the following named officers and men of the 10th Cavalry were either killed or wounded, viz: Captain J. D. Hungerford, 10th Cavalry, was killed while leading his troop. Lieutenant Colonel F. J. Herman, attached to the 10th Cavalry, was shot in the leg, but refused to leave his command while under fire. Captain H. C.-Caron, 10th Cavalry, commanding Troop F, was shot in the right arm. Sergeant Arthur Green, Troop A, 10th Cavalry, was shot in the right shoulder. Pvt. 1st Class U. S. G. Clayton, Troop C, 10th Cavalry, was shot in the arms and chest, presumably with a shotgun. Pvt. 1st Class V. Gibson, Troop F, 10th Cavalry, shot in the thigh. Pvt. 1st Class J. E. Harris, Troop C 10th Cavalry, was shot in the right knee. Pvt. 1st Class W. Reynolds, Troop A, 10th Cavalry, was shot in the thigh. Pvt. C. T. Johnson, Troop F, 10th Cavalry, was shot in the right leg. Pvt. Orvul Walls, Troop A, 10th Cavalry, was shot in the arms and chest, also presumably with a snootgun. During this short engagement First Sergeants Penny and Jordan of Troops C and F, 10th Cavalry, respectively, were specially commended by the commanding general for their coolness and bravery under fire, both of these first sergeants having lost their respective troop commanders, immediately took command of their troops, and by an example of coolness under fire inspired the men under them. These two men were specially commended in a letter from General DeR. C, Cabell, Major General, National Army, who commanded the United States troops at Nogales at the time of the engagement. General Cabell recommended that these men be promoted to Second Lieutenants for coolness and ability to lead men under fire. Sergeants Penny and Jordan both declined to accept promotions, preferring to remain with their organizations in their present positions. Acting upon suggestion from General Cabell, proceedings were inaugurated with a view to having these men awarded Certificates of Merit. But upon investigation no specific act that would warrant such award could be sustained. Under the provisions of General Orders No. 64, W. D., 1918, request was made to the Adjutant General of the Army that the men wounded at Nogales be awarded the wound chevron for action against hostile forces. Authority being obtained, the men were authorized to wear the wound chevron, per General Orders No. 14, Headquarters 10th Cavalry, 1918. Upon receipt of the original wound chevrons from the Adjutant General of the Army, the regiment was formed for Review, and the chevrons formally presented by Colonel C. C. Smith, the regimental commiander. ER AR eR ampere TU ban nw ake ae IRAE eras ROME gay cae sm nea 0 Mmm OR ce Dear rd a rn SO MR a eg a ea a cc nc a A; F. and A. M.

JANUARY 4. 1919 Velvet Gowns, Simple and Superb THE FASHION WEEKLY Riding Togs for Cool Weather SIR WILLIAM HARRIS Velvet, a little satin, some soutache braid, with a superb gift for designing and perfect taste, combined to make the beautiful, and apparently simple afternoon gown which compels our admiration here. It may not be anything like as simple as it looks; there are subtle means for arriving at such beauty of line and adjustment, but they are the technique of the artist and go unnoticed, except by the practiced eyes of other artists. This is the sort of dress that would please the painter of women in any generation, and it will delight the lady of today. It is a portrayal of the mode at its best and no one could ask for a better draping of the human form divine. Dark brown velvet with considerable luster was chosen for this frock. In the cut of the neck and the shape of the sleeves, in the hang of the skirt and its decoration and length, are to be noted touches that reveal how artfully the latest style features have been utilized by the designer. The skirt reaches almost to the instep and narrows a little toward the bottom. Bright autumn weather has called out the devotees of horseback riding in numbers that have increased from week to week for the past two months. Now that the war work is not so compelling one sees single equestrieties and big, jolly parties, as well as many happy pairs, in the parks and roads. Judging from the smart togs of the women, a rumor that the side saddle was about to reappear is utterly without foundation. As for the riding habits, they seem to have reached a degree of excellence in style and becomingness that makes it hard to suggest any improvement. Coats and breeches are cut on the same lines as last year, and there is little variation in them. The coats are trim about the body and rather full in the skirt, but, while lines remain the same, tailors modify the construction to make the thin woman look less thin and the plump woman look slender. Nearly all coats have skirts that extend all the way round the figure, but there are exceptions to this rule, like the trim model shown in the picture above. Heavy whip-cord is a favorite material and new habits made of it appear in Oxford gray, pepper-and-salt mixtures, dark green and Its rather deep yoke is braided in checker-board pattern with soutache braid of the same shade as the velvet. The sleeves flare toward the wrist and are finished with two wide, shaped folds of satin. The bodice is paneled at the front and back, fastening at the right side, where three satin-covered buttons are placed. Pipings of satin finish the edges of the setin belt, the neck and the arm-sleeve. Finally a silk cord, with tasseled ends, is brought about the waist and hangs more than half the length of the skirt. It is not difficult to picture the effectiveness of this dress in dark blue or taupe or plum color, as well as in brown, and the design is suited to both mature and younger women. The hat worn with the gown as pictured is of brown velvet with a brim facing of dull gold brocade and a small feather ornament at one side. It corresponds with the dress, is simple, rich, and graceful, with the irregular brim and softly draped crown that have made the season's millinery so successful. brown, as well as in the perennial navy blue. Black hatter's plush sailors and tricornes, derbies and some soft felt hats make a choice in headwear that gives everyone a chance to choose something becoming. In vestes there are many white and black models in stripe and cross-bar cottons and others of bright red wool with brass buttons, to be worn with coats that reveal only a glimpse of the vest. As for footwear, it's "boots and saddles" this season, the puttees that appeared in the spring having abdicated in favor of black or tan boots. Heavy gloves and gauntlets are in the same colors. Soft tan-colored blouses for real utility and country roads are recommended. In white neckwear one may choose a stock, a plain turnover collar, or a crash collar, and in ties the ascot or the four-in-hand, besides the small cravat bown with turnovers.

It was applied to the majority faction, "bolsha" meaning "majority." The socialists split over the "fundamental law" decree. The minority, the menshevik, was composed of the conservatives who did not favor violence as a method of obtaining reform. The bolsheviki were the radicals who favor bombing, sabotage and terrorism as the means to their end.

FITZWATER, D. D. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago). (Copyright, 1918. Western Newspaper Univ.) LESSON FOR JANUARY 5 PHARAOH OPPRESSES ISRAEL. LESSON TEXT—Exodus 1:7-2:3. GOLDEN TEXT—He shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor—Psalms 72:4. DEVOTIONAL READING—Psalms 2. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL—Exodus 5:1-61; Hebrews 11:23-27. The book from which the next eight lessons are taken is a continuation of the story of the chosen people. Its central theme is redemption—the deliverance of Israel from bondage and their separation unto God. The question of relationship from Egyptian bondage is a type of our own redemption from sin's bondage (I Corinthians 5:7). Pharaoh represents the devil, and Egypt the world. 1. The Increase of the Chosen Seed (1:7). After Joseph's death Israel quickly grew into a nation. This increase was the fulfillment of Genesis 35:11, which promise was repeated to Jacob just before going into Egypt (Genesis 46:3). If it be the problem of how a little company of seventy persons could become an host of six hundred thousand men in so short a time, let us remember that God promised it, and all the difficulties will vanish. There is a time coming when there shall be another amazing increase in Israel (Ezekiel 36:10, 11, 37, 38; 37:26). II. A New Dynasty (1-8-10). Joseph's elevation in Egypt was during the reign of the Hykoss kings. Being of Semitic origin they were not hostile to the Hebrews, but when there "arose up a new king which knew not Joseph" (v. 8) the amazing growth of the Israelites excited his envy and fear (vv. 9, 10). This fear was twofold: (1) In case of war they might join the enemy and fight against them, (2) Lest they should remove from the land, thus cutting off a vital source of revenue and exposing to danger the eastern border of the land. III. Measures to Check the Growth of Israel (1:11-22). These measures place on exhibition the folly of worldly wisdom (1 Corinthians 3:19). Their fatal mistake was that they left God out of their calculations. God had promised that Israel should be great in numbers and mighty in power. He who plans against God shall miserably fall and shall be shown to be a fool. 1. Cruel Taskmasters (vv. 11-14). They were placed under heavy burdens. Cruel taskmasters were placed over them who forced them to labor in building treasure cities and all manner of service in the field. This measure was ineffectual, for "the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew." This rapid growth resulted in more intense burdens being heaped upon them. 2. Murder of Male Infants by the Midwives (vv. 15-21). This measure also miscarried, as the midwives feared God and chose to obey him. Because they refused to destroy God's people he gave them homes and children and the toys thereof. 3. Drowning of Male Children in the River (v. 22). In order to make this measure effective all the people were charged with the responsibility of casting the Hebrew male children into the river. This mandate seems to have been given shortly before Moses was born. This plan likewise was folled, and the very child who when a man upset his throne, was sheltered and nurtured in his own palace. IV. The Birth and Education of Moses (2:1-8). The measure which was designed to destroy the Hebrew menace, also brought to Pharaoh's palace and educated there the very man who afterward shattered the Egyptian power and set free the enslaved people. The faith of Moses' parents caused them to ignore the command of the king and hide him for three months (Hebrews 11:23). Faith in God is the antidote for fear (Psalms 27:1). His mother discerned in him a proper child, or a child fair to God (Acts 7:20), and believed him to be the deliverer of his people. She no doubt instilled this truth in his mind from his childhood. Perhaps led by the story of Noah's ark she made an ark of bulrushes and placed Moses in it and left it at the place where Pharaoh's daughter would be attracted when she came down to bathe. Miriam, his sister, was placed where she could watch the affair. She came with a suggestion at the opportune moment as to a nurse for the baby. Education at his mother's knee gave character, and education at the Egyptian court qualified him to be the historian and lawgiver of his people. "Love suffereth long and is kind; love enviieth not; love vaunteth not itself." Get these ingredients into your life. Then everything that you do is eternal. It is worth doing. It is worth giving time to. Self-Denial. Self-denial when regularly kept up and not only indulged now and then, out of laziness or partial affection, is one of the clearest tokens that God's holy spirit is with zeen, preparing them for eternal glory.-Keble.

A DISAPPOINTMENT. In a country week appeal Senator Harding said in Cleveland: "It is most pathetic to see the ignorance of country life that is manifested by the little country weekers from the slums. "A little country weeker on an Ohio farm went down into the barnyard to see the milking, and returned with tears in his eyes. "Why, what's the matter, bub? said the farmer's wife. 'Didn't the milking please you?' "Naw, said the country weeker. 'Them cows o' yourn don't give nothin' but milk." "For the land's sakes! And what do you expect 'em to give?" said the farmer's wife. "Beef tea, o' course, snapped the country weeker." Miss Millie Carstensen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Carstensen, of Belleville, left recently for Chicago to join a Y. M. C.

JANUARY 4. 1919 AMONG THE CHURCHES CAIN MEMORIAL A. M. E. CHURCH. Sunday services were well attended. Rev. Anderson preached an excellent sermon at the evening services. There were also a goodly number of visitors at each service. We are glad to have them any time. One addition was made to the Church Sunday morning. The pastor and family wishes to thank the members and friends for the many presents received during Christmas. The watch meeting service was very nicely attended considering all things. The spirit ran high. Dr. S. B. Anderson was with us and said many helpful things. We made the New Year call and three came and united with the Church. We thank the Heavenly Father that little Zion is still growing. Quarterly meeting will be Sunday. January 5. Dr. J. F. Sage will preach at 3 p. m. .....Miss Chandley, our organist, is much improved and the choir will soon be at their place.....Members, visitors and friends are all welcome. Come! EBENEZER CHURCH In spite of the closed doors of the church for a number of weeks on account of the "flu," and in spite of the severe cold weather and poor car service, Ebenezer has just closed one of the best quarters in its history. The Rev. A. A. Gilbert, P. E., preached two strong powerful sermons both morning and evening. Rev. J. C. Bell, the scholar and orator, the successful pastor of St. John, delivered an impressive soul-stirring sermon in the afternoon. There were eight additions to the church. The reports from the different boards and auxiliaries of the church were: Trustees, $100.60; Stewards, $789.05; Stewardesses, $34.65; Junior Stewardesses, $7; Deaconesses, $188.45; Sunday School, $23.65; Christian Endeavor, $13.30; Choir, $50.97; Missionaries, $30.28; Art Circle, $30.37; Improvement Board, $18.92; Who-so-Ever-Will Club, $23.48; Willing Workers, $18.77; Ushers, $15; United We Stand Club, $9. Total for less than two months, $2.257.21. Open doors at the parsonage on New Year's day was largely attended by members and some of our most prominent citizens. A large New Year's offering was taken...Mrs. Ona B. Wilson and her Busy Bee Birds gave a splendid concert at the Christmas tree on New Year's eve. The drill and the recitation by Milfred Robinson, reading by Gladys Smith and the solo by Irene Burns were especially commendable and well rendered. Every number was good. The tree was ladened with gifts for the grown as well as the children. The Improvement Board, United-We Stand Club and the Willing Workers vied with each other in giving useful and elaborate gifts to the pastor and wife. The president of the Art Club Mrs. Bessie Mason, and the president of the Improvement Board, Mrs. Ida Vaughn, gave personal elaborate gifts. Many gifts were also given by individual members and friends and the pastor and wife were appreciative and grateful to all. Mrs. Osborne was also the recipient of some elaborate gifts from Omaha, Neb. Miss Mollie Wilson and her Junior Endeavors delighted an appreciative audience at the church on Monday evening in the rendition of the play, "The Minister's Wife's New Bonnet." It was full of humor and wit from start. Master Vernon Barton, who portrayed the head man of the church, and things must be done because he said so, was indeed the star in the play. He was closely seconded by Henry Washington who had invited a city girl to take charge of the chair; this part was played to perfection by Hortense Dimery. Mamie Maxey, the hard-to-near member of the church, and Eliza Beth Dimery, who stuttered, brought down the house. All were good. A Beautiful Character, Devoted Wife and Friend Laid to Rest. Mrs. Minnie L. Jackson, wife of brother Tyler Jackson, was buried from Ebenezer on last Sunday afternoon, Rev. W. T. Osborne officiating, assisted by Rev. A. A. Gilbert with Watkins Bros, undertakers, in charge. She looked as if only sleeping in the beautiful gray couch casket and every tribute was paid to her sacred memory. Her class, in fitting condolence, spoke of her faithful service, her love for her church and ever willingness to do her part. The Art Club spoke of her sunshine disposition, her ever sweet smiling countenance and her eager desire always for peace and harmony. The last work she was permitted to do was just after Conference. She came with her lunch and spent the day working with the Art Club, cleaning and beautifying the church. Her Easter Star Chapter in charge conducted a beautiful solemn service. They too spoke of her lovely disposition and her faithfulness to the chapter, all with whom she had mingled cherished her sacred memory with the beautiful thought: "None knew her but to love her." She is missed, yet she is not dead, because there is no death to those who live a beautiful, useful life; they simply fall asleep in Jesus. And her many friends, together with the bereaved husband, sisters and brothers whom the pastor, members, friends of Ebe nezer extend the deepest sympathy feel that— Dear is the spot where Minnie is laid Dear is the spot where Minnie is laid And fond are the memories that shall power fods: never tade; Bright are the hopes that again we shall meet, kneeling together at Jesus' feet. MT. TABOR A. M. E. CHURCH. The pastor, Rev. W. M. Williams, preached a splendid sermon both morning and evening. There were many evidences of the Holy Ghost. Two persons connected themselves with the church. The first Quarterly meeting of the New Year will be held at our church, 34th and Oakley, next Sunday, January 5th. The Rev. Howard Samilton will preach. Our friends from various churches are invited to be present. ST. STEPHEN'S BAPTIST CHURCH. The pastor preached Sunday morning to a very good audience in spite of the bad weather. The Sunday school was well attended at 2:30. Sunday evening a great crowd was present and the pastor delivered a powerful sermon and there were six additions to the church. A glorious watch meeting was held New Year's eve and at 11 o'clock the pastor preached from Matthew 28: 20, theme, "The Goodness of God." Many sinners were called to the mourner's bench and five minutes of twelve everybody went upon their knees to thank God for permitting them to see the old year out and the new year in. Three joined the church. NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH. This church, located at 19th and Waldron, is making much progress under the leadership of her new pastos, S. W, Toles, N. D. More than forty members have been added during the past two months. Dr. Toles is a splendid preacher and if you want to be electrified with a gospel sermon, come and hear him. Rev. Toles is here from Dallas, Texas, where he spent seven years, but he is a native of Ohio. Come and hear him. Take a Jackson or Indiana avenue car and get off on Waldron, walk one block south. The famous Masonic choir, under the leadership of Mesdames Fox and Morrison, will render a literary and musical program for us January 9. The admission is 15 cents. The public is invited. Dr. N. T. Lane, pastor of the St. Paul Baptist church, will open a ten days' meeting for us beginning January 15. Please come. This means YOU! INTER-DENOMINATIONAL MINISTERIAL ALLIANCE. The Inter-Denominational Ministerial Alliance will meet in regular services at the Y. M. C. A., Tuesday, 10:30 a. m. January 7th. The membership and all ministers of Greater Kansas City, are kindly urged to be present and on time. All committees are requested to report the first meeting of the New Year. We should have a good attendance and helpful meeting. CHRISTIAN CHURCH CHRISTIAN CHURCH. The attendance and services for the last two weeks were what we generally style "fair." This more than met expectation with the poor street car service. The services on Christmas day at 11 a. m. were well attended and truly helpful. The children's program on Sunday morning was full of joy and happiness for the little ones and a splendid object lesson for the older ones. There were no mid-week meetings of the departments during Christmas week. Elder R. L. Love of Guthrie, Okla., called upon us unnounced and spent the Christmas with us. He preached three sermons that will not soon be forgotten. Mr. W. J. Sharp and son of Topeka, KNs., brother-in-law of the pastor, made a short visit and worshipped with us. Mrs. A. J. Lewis and daughter, Lindall, spent the Christmas with friends in St. Louis. Mrs. A. J. Therence, our music instructor, spent the Christmas with relatives in Shreveport, La. The Christmas dinner given the Orphan Children by Mr. Ewing (24th and Highland) and repaired by the Ladies' Aid Society was a good one and much enjoyed by the children. We all should feel indebted to Mr. Ewing, Mesdames White, Buford, Casaway and McDonald for their kindness to the children. The pastor will speak at both services next Sunday. The annual business meeting of the church Wednesday night, January 8th, at which reports from all departments of the church will be made and of ficers elected for 1919. The public is welcome to all services. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH. SECOND BAPTISM CHURCH. "The Church of Tomorrow" was the subject of Dr. Bacote's beautiful sermon which was enjoyed by the congregation. In the evening the pastor chose for his subject. "And the Disciples were First Called Christians at Antioch." This sermon was very interesting. During the day there were five additions to the church. The services on Tuesday evening were full of inspiration to those who were fortunate enough to attend and to kneel in prayer as the old year passed out and the new year came in. The Mission Circle held a very interesting session at the home of Mrs. Yancy, 1007 Vine street. The annual church meeting was held in the lecture room last Friday evening. In this meeting all of the reports of the church of flicers read and adopted also the church officers for the incoming year were elected. The church will start a revival in the near future to which all members and friends of this congregation are asked to come. GALLILEE MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH. Services here were extraordinary good Sunday. Sunday school was good and well attended. At 11 a. m. our pastor, Dr. A. Moore, preached a noble and powerful sermon, "Settling Accounts and Posting Books." The B. Y. P. U. was opened by President Miss Cora Holman. It was well attended and a great lesson taught. The pastor preached another great sermon in the evening to which there were two additions. The watch meeting Tuesday night was largely attended. ST. PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH. Services were well attended and many new faces were seen in the audience last Sunday. Sunday school well attended. The pastor, Rev. N. T.

On December 26 there were four prizes to have been given away in the ham contest. The number that drew the ham is still out. Any person holding No. 218 may show their stub to Trustee Ransom and get two 10-pound hams. There were three additions to the church. Sunday. Collection for the sick, $4.57. Collection, $109. Mrs. Joe Beaudix and daughter, Violet, Shackleford, of Pittsburgh, Pa. has returned to the city to make it their home again. They are now stopping with the former's sisters, Mrs. Mary Kealy and Mrs. Bertha Chilton, 3717 Barker avenue, Kansas side. On New Year's eve we held watch meeting. Among us was Rev. H. T. Borders of Oklahoma City, Okla., president of the Baptist Foreign Mission convention, who preached to us at the last hour of the old year; a great preacher he is. ALLEN CHAPEL The last Sunday of the Old Year was Quarterly Meeting day at Allen Chapel. Rev. A. A. Gilbert, P. E., occupied the pulpit at the morning and evening services. His sermons were filled with inspiration and encouragement. Dr. J. A. Chandley delivered a fine sacramental sermon at the afternoon service, Many from other congregations worshipped with us in spirit and in truth. During the day there were three additions. Because of the car strike, general class and love feast were held with the regular class meeting Tuesday night December 31 instead of Monday night following Quarterly Meeting. Watch meeting was held immediately following love feast and class. The worshippers watched the Old Year out and the New Year in, in thanksgiving and in prayer instead of in revelry and drinking. The Douglass Hospital Club entertained the pastor and family with a party at the parsonage Monday evening, December 30. Quite an enjoyable time was had by all present. The Strangers' Club served a delightful banquet in honor of the President, Senators, Governors and workers of the Mock Congress in the lecture room, December 28. With best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year, the Minister and members of Allen Chapel invite you to start the year right by attending their Church services and uniting with them in worship and in work if not connected with other congregations. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH. All services at Bethel were largely attended last Sunday. The Sunday School at 9:45 A. M. was well attended. We were pleased to have Mrs. Roberts, our District President, to look in upon us and hope she will call again. At 11:00 o'clock Dr. Dawson selected for his text: "The Glory of this latter house shall be greater than the former saith the Lord of hosts: And in this place, will I give peace saith the Lord of Hosts." 6:30 P. M. The Endeavor was well attended the evening service was well attended and the pastor's subject was "Dress Up." At the close of the sermon he extended the invitation to those who wish to become followers of Jesus. One woman accepted the invitation and two men. All who were present felt as the disciples did on the mount that it was good to be there. Tuesday night was Watch Meeting night. Rev. Mr. Johnson preached the sermon for that occasion than the Old Fashioned prale meeting began. My, My, you should have been there. Dr. Dawson invited sinners to Jesus, three came for prayers and two accepted Christ. A great rally will be held the 4th Sunday in February and all members and friends are asked to do their bit.
