THE CHILD'S DUTY TO MOTHER
By Miag Dora Hogan.
"Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth Thee." This is God's Commandment of promise. "Honor thy mother is the neth child's first duty to its mother. Honor as it is here meant means many things. Reverance, loyalty, love and obedience.
Since God has commanded it, duty to mother is one of the most important and yet one of the least considered things in life. So many children think of only of the mother's duty to child and never realizes that the child owes one thing to mother. The debt a child owes to mother is too great to be mounted in money. The suffering, the heart-aches, the tears, the many prayers she offers for her child. The years of sacrifice, toll and patience she has spent in training and teaching can the value of these be placed in money? Nor does the average mother expect that as a payment for her care. Every child owes it to its mother to live an honorable life. "Tis the greatest tribute that can be paid a mother.
Fame and wealth may come but a true mother is not satisfied with nor proud of these things if she knows her child has received ill gotten gains. A Christian mother watched her son grow to manhood. She prayed that he would become a great man but a good one. Gradually he plied up wealth until he became a millionaire. He surrounded his mother with every luxury as payment for her many sacrifices for him when he was a boy. But the mother's heart was not satisfied, for she knew his methods of money making were dishonest, and as she watched him constantly crush down others who were in his path this thought was ever current in her mind:

The work is destined to become an important feature in the religious activity of the University. The class song was composed by Miss Madeline Randall of Sedalia, Mo. The Theologs will give their Annual program Thursday evening, May 22.
"What profifeth a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?" So constantly she prayed that a change would come. At last proven to be a grafter, his high position, he began to see himself in the light his mother saw him. He began to make preparation for the evil he had done. But yet his mother was not satisfied. Finally he gave his life, saving the life of another. When his mother heard of his death she exclaimed "Mine eyes have seen the coming of the Lord." She knew that her son had at last been regenerated. Thus in her greatest sorrow, who found her greatest joy. The knowledge of her son's souls salvation paid the debt to her that he had striven for years to pay in gold. Again there is the child who thinks that the only think it owes to mother is that she is well cared for or one who having lost mother cares not how they live.
One's duty to mother is much more than giving bodily comfort. Every child owes it to mother to live an honorable life and if she has passes to the eternal kingdom, how much more of a duty is it to live a life that would meet with her highest approval.
Christ in his last hours thought of his duty to his mother. For in John it is written "Where Jesus therefore saw his mother standing and the disciples, whom he loved standing by, he saith unto his mother "Woman behold Thy Son." Then saith he to the disciple behold thy mother and from that hour the disciple took her to his home."
Honor thy mother by loving her and if the love for her is great through reverence obeying her should be an easy task. And in doing these things ever present thought of her will influence every act so that the honor she expects (which is the greatest duty of a child to mother) is possible.

"We are in the beautiful city of Los Angeles, California, and are surprised to find it so cold here. The sun does not appear until late in the day and sometimes not at all. I had been here but a few days and sent post haste for my winter coat. The old residents say this is unusual weather for this time of the year, ordinarily it is sunny and pleasant. There are only a few Negro businesses here. I wish my many friends and customers to know that the business of Caldwell and Chapman Haid and Millinery will be continued at 1505 E. 18th street Kansas City, Mo., and I also wish to thank all for their continued patronage."

A MODERN AFRICAN SCHOLAR.
By Prof. Wm. H. Dawley.
Just 201 years after the disembarking of the Negroes from the Dutch slaver on the coast of Virginia, a ship with 88 black pilgrims retraced the course across the Atlantic and landed at Liberia. On this spot in 1847 the Negro Republic of Liberia was established. With her little army of 400 this state entered the great war against German autocracy and at its conclusion took her place at the Peace table to assist in making the world a decent place to live in.
The history of this little commonwealth has not been smooth but with sacrifices and varying untoward vicissitudes she has reached her present stand and is hopeful. This war has relaxed the blighting grip of Germany upon her. Yet she has declined the preferred assistance of England and France but accepted the solicited aid of the United sTates of America. It may be for two reasons: first, she was originally a colony of the United States and second, she regards the Negroes of the United States as brothers in exile, and longs for them with their training in various lines to come and develop the resources of Liberia as no other people on earth can do, Liberia thinks.
just one year after the abolition of slavery in the United States the College of Liberia was founded to develop leaders for this little state and grandly has this college met the demand. Which would have been realized had she produced Edward Wilmot Blydon alone, that scholar, linguist, diplomat, philosopher and author of international reputation. But Liberia College has produced others, notably Cassell, who in 1918 was made president of Liberia College and who is at present honoring our country with his presence on a tour of Educational inspection.
President Cassell was born in Monrovia, the capital of Liberia December 13, 1872. His maternal grand mother was from Virginia, his maternal grand father from Georgia. His father was carried to Liberia a small boy. Therefore the President is a product that the United States produces in the third generation on foreign soil. His entire education was acquired on African soil. The public schools, the college and the Episcopal Divinity school equipped him. Such was his ability that shortly after his graduation from the Episcopal, the leading, theological, school in Liberia, he was given a chair there.
In his untiring zeal for research he has acquired a library that is superior to any in the state. As one feasts upon the conversation of President Cassell he seems rather a Commissioner of Education. For while jealous of the traditions of his beloved Alma Mater, he is keenly alive to the needs of technical, scientific, as well as industrial training for the youth of his country, that its mines may be developed, that its rich soil may produce the maximum to the acre in the most advanced scientific manner.
Though an eminent Episcopal clergyman, yet he believes that the priest's mission is to take the gospel to the people and like Wesley of old, is not ashamed to practice that belief. His sermons are not recitations in monotone, but are meant to carry conviction and her voice, he uses, to wake men up and stir their souls. Yet all this is done in a way that compromises in no way the solemnity of the Prayer book, the prayer book that has made England and that Dr. Cassell feels is destined to make Liberia.
An ardent disciple of Dr. Blydon like him, President Cassell is thoroughly imbued with the idea of the lofty Mission of the Negro, that he must soon break away from his subject condition and be about the mission, destined for him; that Africa is the arena for the perfection of that son is to be launched. Especially is this favorable to the American Negro; for his language is the language of Liberia. The thermometer rarely reg-

A DASTARDLY OUTRAGE.
New Hope Baptist Church, 19th and Waldron, Rev. S. W. Toles Pastor, Seriously Damaged by Dynamite Last Tuesday Night.
On last Tuesday night a charge of dynamite was exploded under the rear wall of New Hope Baptist Church presumably by some miscreant representing the element that has been threatening for sometime on the East side to destroy Negro property. Not only was the church seriously damaged but windows were broken in several homes in the vicinity. Damage amounting to more than a hundred dollars being done to a brick flat immediately south of the church occupied by white people. Dr. Toles immediately notified the police department and insisted that protection be given his property and people and assured a representative of the Sun that the Church would be immediately repaired, a watchman installed and services go on as usual.
The Colored people in the neighborhood of which there are four or five families assert that they are not frightened but shall continue to reside in the homes, that they have bought and paid for by hard labor.

A SUCCESSFUL PHYSICIAN.
We are presenting this week to our thousands of readers a splendid likeness of a young man who has developed into one of Kansas City's most successful physicians and as a Pathologist and Internist has no superior in the race.
Dr. Humbert came to Kansas City as an interne in the Old City Hospital in 1915 and exhibited such rare ability that he was appointed Pathologist in 191 and was admitted to the white section of the General Hospital for eight month's special training. He studied research laboratories at the Research Hospital and was sent by the Health Department of this City in 1917 to Fort Riley, Kansas, to study Meningitis and other infectious and contagious diseases among the thousands of soldiers stationed there. He took work at the University of Kansas Laboratory during that time and was admitted early in January of this year to the famous Rockefeller Institute and then took special work at the great Bellvue Hospital of the University of New York, thus presenting a fitness and preparedness that few men of the race have been permitted to enjoy.
He has opened his office for general practice (treating all varieties of diseases) and in conjunction has established a Commercial laboratory at 18th and Paseo, the only one in the United States conducted by a Colored physician. He was appointed assistant Meningitis expert to Dr. A. Sophian formerly of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical research and has had the honor of being closely associated with him in practice for the past three years.
Dr. Perry our most distinguished
Dr. Charles R. Humbert:
physician said recently of Dr. Humbert: "He is undoubtedly the brightest and best equipped Pathologist and Internist the race has yet produced and as a practitioner he has made and is yet making a most enviable record." The Sun congratulates Dr. Charles R. Humbert upon his wonderful development and congratulates the race and Kansas City as well upon having such a distinguished physician in our midst.

Mrs. Jennie Porter, one of our oldest citizens and church workers, was called to reward on May 7 at 7 a.m. Mrs. Porter was born in Nashville, Tennessee, September 2, 1868, and came out to this part of the country in her girlhood days. She was a devoted mother and a Christian. Her life was spent in caring for her children and her sister's children, being left a widow when her children were small. However, by the help of God, she managed to rear them to manhood and womanhood. Her funeral was held from King Solomon Baptist Church Sunday, May 11. The funeral services were conducted by the S. M. T.'s, the Busy Bees, and Household of Ruth. The sermon was preached by the pastor, Rev. Clay. Mr. Boatner sang a beautiful solo and Prof. J. P. King delivered an eulogy on the life of Mrs. Porter. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. Mrs. Porter had been ill for a number of years, but not until a short while before her death did she allow the children to know that she is so low. She was buried in Woodlawn cemetery. She leaves a son, Jesse Porter, two daughters, Mrs. Willa Williams, and Mrs. Charlotte Everett, one grandchild, two pieces, Margaret and Charlotte Lockridge, who were so very kind and dutiful in caring for their aunt during her long illness. She also leaves two brothers, Steve and Thomas Lockridge, and two sisters, Mrs. Rebecca Vincent, of Chicago, and Mrs. J. H. Rouse of Muskogee, Olda, and a number of relatives and friends who mourn her demise.

good strong sermon. Rev. Henderson the subject is destined to make his mark in his Gospel Calling....There were five additions to the church. The collection for the day was $52.75.... The big rally is now on for the 4th Sunday to raise money to purchase the brick for our new church. The clubs are being lead by Sister Edith Edmonds and Brother Sandford are striving to raise $1125 with which to purchase the brick for the new building. Come and help us. The Lord will bless you. The building is progressing nicely and the brick for the structure are now being placed on the ground and if everything moves along smoothly it won't be long until we will be back home in our new house of God.
MT. PLEASANT BAPSTIST CHURCH
Roy J. R. Alchardson Pastor
Rev. J. R. Aichardson. Pastor.
Our pastor being out of the city, Rev. J. H. Bohannon filled the pulpit for us during the Sunday services...To well filled house Rev. Bohannon took for his subject "Reaping what we Sow" at the 11 o'clock service and preached one of those real old time spiritual sermons, which caused many to shout for joy... The Sunday School at 1:30 P. M. was well attended and Dr. L. R. Petty made some very timely and instructive remarks... The fight is on among the Sisters and Brothers of the Church and Sunday, May 18th, will prove who is the stronger. The Sisters declare that they will beat the men in our competition for supremacy. The Sisters will hold a Council of War at the home of Mrs. J. R. Richardson, on Alive Ave., Friday night and serve refreshments, the proceeds to go to help defeat the men... The Mothers Meeting at 6:30 p. m. was well attended and story of Moses was discussed. All should attend our Mother's meetings and see what the mothers of our church are trying to do for fallen humanity... Mr. Swancy is on hand with his papers every Sunday morning and we think that for the service he is rendering that for the service he should make it a point to be the leading church in helping him make his effort a showcase. Come now let's buy a paper each Sunday and help him make a showing for Mt. Pleasant. There will be a Bible Contest the 2nd Sunday in June at the Mother's meeting. At S o'clock Rev. Bohannon preached again to a large audience thus bringing to a close a Glerious day of service. We appreciate such men of God and can only ask them to come often... There were three additions to the Church...We invite all to worship with us Sunday and take a part in the war between the Sisters and Brothers which promises to be an exciting event...We were sorry to have our Pastor away but we are glad too that he can find time to let us miss him as it only makes us long for his return... The new church building up on Walnut Blvd., is growing rap idly and pretty soon you can come down on the West Bluffs in Kansas City. Mo. and wonder what great building is that we can see so plain in the North west. It's old Mt. Pleas ant now The Walnut Blvd. Baptist Church of Kansas.
PLEASANT GREEN BAPTIST
CHURCH.
Rev. George McNeil, Pastor.
We always have 5 o'clock Prayer Meeting which is always well attended and begins our Sunday services. ...At 11 o'clock the Rev. Hall of Champagne, Ill., preached the Baptismal sermon, which was a spiritual treat. ...After the sermon there gathered around the pool 33 souls waiting to put on Chris by Baptism. This also being our Communion Day the house was well filled and an excellent praise service was had. ...The B. Y. P. U. held its services at 6:30 o'clock, which was conducted by Brother Louis Kemp. ...8 o'clock p. m. we again had Praise Service after which the Lord's Supper was administered and a Glorious time was had as we ate and drank in remembrance of Him, who died that we might not perish but have ever lasting life. Rev. Floyd Richardson is very ill at his home. We pray for his recovery. ...Mrs. Mary Gray is still under the care of the physician at Douglas Hospital. ...Mrs. Bohannon is very ill at this writing but we hope not of a serious nature. ...Mr. John Hobbs met with a very painful accident at the Morris Packing Plant, but we wish him a speedy recovery as we miss him in the church work. ...The church is doing nicely in our new edifice and extends to the church going public a cordial welcome to any and all of our church services. The collection for the day was $150.58.

are in the city and have no church home, come and journey with us and we will do you good.... We were glad to have with us Sunday morning Mr. C. P. Syancy, Jr., who is a talented young man and we feel is destined to become a great strength to the community. He made a strong plea for our news to be given to the K. S. Sun with whom he is connected, being in charge of the Kansas City, Kans. branch. He is also a popular Deputy of the American Woodmen and a hustler. In fact he is a young man that any community would feel proud to own. We feel that he should be given every encouragement since he shows such exceptiona 1 qualities.... The church is doing a splendid work. The Clubs are all striving to beat each other. We have five clubs. The Choir is rendering excellent music and touches the innermost feeling of the heart.
...At 2:30 the funeral of Sister Jenny Porter Were held and the pastor preached an excellent sermon....The solo rendered by Mr. Botner was very sad and touching and was rendered beautifully. The remarks by Prof. J. P. King were very fine....The floral offerings were many and beautiful. The body of Sister Porter was in charge of the Sons and Daughters of Consolation, the Sisters of the Mysterious Ten and the Household of Ruth....The church mourns with the bereaved family and extends to them her sympathy. We know Sister Porter has left us but we feel she is only waiting on the Other Side for us to join her, where there is no sickness pain or death....The B. Y. P. U. was well attended and much interest shown in the discussion....The evening services were well attended and the pastor preached to us again....The Sunday School is doing nicely. We are now praying and planning to begin work on our upper floor. Come out and help us raise this Temple for God.
MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
Boston, Massachusetts. Doctor
Rev. Moses Williams, Pastor.
We had splendid services both morning and evening and the church is moving along both spiritually and financially... We baptised six and had eight additions to the church... Pastor conducted the morning services which were well attended... We had a good Sunday School and quite an interesting lesson which the school seemed to enjoy... The B. Y. P. U. held its regular service which was exceptionally good... The Choir rendered good service during the day and are improving very rapidly. We will enter our new church this Sunday and will open the services with a sermon at 11 p. m. by the pastor... At 3 p. m. we will have a program appropriate for the occasion to which we wish to invite the public at large... The program will be in charge of the Sir Knights and Daughters of the Tabernacle. Rev. Holmes of the Metropolitan Temple will preach the Dedication sermon... We had a very substantial collection for the day and are expecting every one to do the best they can on our Dedication day... We hope to give you a complete history of the church and pastor in our next issue. We are all anxious to go into our new place of worship and present it to the Lord. Won't you come and help us rejoice over what the Lord has done. N. B. The Editor wishes to thank the Mt. Zlon church and pastor for the interest they are taking in our paper and assure them that we will spare no pains in trying to take care of their news.

Evidently Dr. R. R. Moten did not forget during his mission of Uncle Rastus story telling in France that he had to return to and live in Alabama.
The Star is getting some of its own medicine. It's pressmen are on a strike but fortunately no one is urging the dynamite method of settling the trouble.
It may be relied upon that those Negro soldiers who are still detained in Franch are getting a full course of training in road building and scrap metal salvaging.
Naturally some of the prejudiced crackers are rushing into official print charging that the Negro soldiers who went to France were afraid to fight but that is not the reason the latter was being lynched as fast as they return to the South.
In spite of constant petty annoyances from certain meddlesome sources the Negro men appointed by the Mayor to serve upon the committee to work out the housing situation are making an excellent impression upon the white members by the afir and intelligent manner in which they are standing by the natural rights of the race.
Pace CONGRESS at Allen Chapel has been postponed to May 19.23.
A great French writer once said that language was the art of hiding thoughts, but he was about wrong in this case, for behind the word "advertisement" are meanings so big and so grand that they are the forces that are moving most all of our thinking men to do those noble things by which the business world is strengthened, and the community and nation enlightened and defended. Now, don't you think that it is about time that we understand just what these wonderful things that people without wings call advertisements are? We think so. And don't you think that as the weed for advertising grows business is going to rest more and more upon popular understanding. We think so, because the majority of the Negroes of Kansas City are coming to the conclusion that: William Stanley is one of our practical tailors who cleans, dyes and presses by steam, at 1830 East Ninth street.
Drs. Lee and Lee are, by their polite and progressive manner, proving that their drug store on 12th and Woodland is the Palace by example as well as my name. Love and O. Blanchard are owners of a first class barber shop and pool hall at 1717 E 18th street; Matlow's Haberdashery, just opened at 1636 E 18th street, is making very good offers in gent's clothing. Quinn & Powdrill, the proprietors of the new Little Wonder Garage at 1810 Lydia avenue, are professionals at car repairing, washing and polishing. The G. C. and H. M. Industrial Laundry, located at 2310 Vine, deserves the patronage of our people. G. H. Montgomery, proprietor of the Utah Shining Parlor, welcomes all old and new customers at his new quarters at 1517 E 17th street.
We have other business men and women we intend to mention from time to time. They are conducting their respective business in such a manner that according to Puddin-head Wilson's reasoning—even our popular undertakers, Messrs. Adkins, Countee Moore and Watkins, will be sorry they come to die.

FROM OVERSEAS
Private Irving L. Smith writes: “I
am sure that my friends have won-
dered what the former shoemaker was
doing in this historic Country of
France, I am still repairing shoes
over here and am getting along fine
as the other boys from Kansas City
are doing. We of course are a little
anxious to return home.. Our exper-
fence is great and we will have lots
of news when we return home, We
are now living in the quiet valley of
this bloody battlefront and know what
it means to go through the fires of
war, In this devastated district it is
indeed pitiful to see the returning
civilians come back to these torn
towns and shelled fields where once
upon a time they were happily domt-
clled. We have been raided and shell.
ed by German longe range guns in
this the hardest of the whole battle:
front. These fields and woods of the
Argonne have machine gun nests that
almost made them impossible to take.
All kinds of trenches and dugouts
grace this section of the front, We
have now past our first six months
and we have our tripe on our sleeves
ani we are expecting to be in the good
old U.S. A. before long now, This
travel and experience has taught us
many things. The French people are
very congenial and as you well know
‘there {s no. color line in England or
France. We were royally received
everywhere, Among the many things
we have learned is the value of a dol
lar. Our mail sergeant sends from
$100 to $1,000 per day to friends and
relatives of the soldiers of the United
States, The value of home, and the
love for home together with ail the
many conveniences of home have been
realized by all the men since theit
war experience. "
Corp. T. W. Tyus of the 805th Pio-
neer Infantry writes:
Our regimental show and Jazz is
cleaning up and the very best talent
has been secured for our show and
orchestra to be staged in France,
Set. Billie Higgins is stage manager
and producer. He appears in the lat-
ter part with a snappy 45 minutes
vaudeville act, Musical acts, acrobats
and duck and wing dancers and a good
quartette add much pep and snapp to
the program. Our jazz starts playing

A HOME SICK SOLDIER.
By Prvt. Bremond Holliday.
Co, B. 805 P. I. Inf.
I've lived in muddy trenches
Where screaming shot and
Gas and dirt and cooties
Make life a merry Hell.
And now ‘mid all the glamour
Of "Gay Paree” I oam,
But something makes me watch my
step;
It’s the girl back home.
1 wander on the boulevards
And painted demoiselles
Give flat ‘ring invitations
They're ; ght thee with the bells,
But none of them look good to me,
For fa across the foam
I know a eal one’s waiting;
She's the girl back home,
I've got a bunch of buddies
Who like to hit the booze,
They go zig-zag on cognac
Or tank up on Vin Rouge;
But any guy who falls for that
Has got an ivory dome
Ar else he doesn't think a lot
Of the girl back home.
Some day we'll get order
Back home the regiment goes;
Across the pond we'll sail “Tout suite,”
Put on Civilian cothes!;
And then Oh boy, comes my reward,
No more abroad I'll roam,
But settle down to real home lite
‘With the girl back home,
DO YOU TAKE THE SUN?
