Hundreds of Police Called Out
Against Blacks
(By Associated Negro Press)
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, June 25.—A Race war, threatening for weeks, assumed sinister proportions on Chicago's South Side last night, when 200 extra police were rushed to the Washington Park district.
One Negro is dead; another was said to be dying last night. Both were victims of a small army of white men who, early yesterday, set out with the avowed intention of "cleaning out the blacks."
Plan Night Battle.
Information was generally distributed among both whites and Negroes that a big fight was to be waged some time during the night in Washington Park.
Police of the South Park board, 200 strong, were rushed to the park and kept an all-night vigil. Seven hundred reserves were ordered on duty at the Englewood, Fiftieth street, New City and Stock Yards stations.
A special police guard was established at Kenny's undertaking establishment, 5438 South Halsted street, where the body of the slain Negro was held.
Negro Stabbed and Shot.
The Negro killed was Robert Robinson, 514 West Fifty-fourth place. Robinson was simply walking to his home. There had been no fight or disturbance. A gang of savage hoodlums attacked him.
He had been shot several times, stabbed repeatedly in the back and beaten over the head with billiard cues. The murder occurred shortly after Saturday midnight at Fifty.

fifth street and Princeton avenue.
Ollis Harris, 5647 Grove avenue, is the Negro said to be dying. He was shot through the stomach, stabbed and beaten, at Fifty-seventh street and Lafayette avenue. Both Blacks were attacked by the same mob. Persons questioned by the police say the whites numbered 150 men.
Lieutenant Guerney of the Stock Yards station and a squad had arrested about two score of suspects yesterday, but only eleven were being held last night.
Lieutenant Gurney refused to give the names of the men held, because, he explained, the Negroes might obtain vengeance by attacking the homes of those held.
Won't Discriminate, Alcock.
"The situation is most serious," First Deputy of Police Alcock said last night. "We had better meet it now than later. I have instructed the precinct commanding officers to see that their men do their duty. There will be no discrimination."
Battle Prearranged.
Yesterday morning's excitement appeared to have been prearranged. At 12:30 a. m. the Stock Yards station received a telephone call that a white mob was "out to kill all the blacks." A small squad of police was rushed out, but failed to connect with the gangsters. Knives, razors, billiard clubs, clubs and several revolvers were picked up along the trail taken by the whites.
Yesterday's developments convinced police, city officials and others who have studied the rp al problem that Chicago must deal with one of the most difficult situations in its history.
The actual conflicts between whites and Negroes come, it is pointed out, as to be expected climaxes to the series of bomb outrages perpetrated on the South Side in the last few months.
None of those who yesterday dis-
The Kansas City Sun
cussed the matter believed any policy of Negro residence segregation would offer solution.
Julius Rosenwald, who has given much time and money toward the development of the Negro people, said: "The racial problem in Chicago has been left too long awaiting solution. The newspapers can perform a big service by bringing the public to a realization of the seriousness of the problem.
"I have no panacea. This question is too big to be solved with an off-hand word. It is our duty to begin studying it at once, for the situation is critical.
"Of one thing I feel certain—any policy of attempted segregation is out of the question."
Our own leaders are inclined to blame the rough element among the recent immigrants from the South for the increasing evidences of friction as well as the tough whites who are encouraged by the sensational daily newspapers. Movements are on foot among leading white and Colored organizations to get together in an effort to cope with the situation.
WICHITA DISTRICT CONFERENCE CONVENED IN NEWTON, KANSAS.
The annual sermon was preached by Rev. W. H. Merritt, which was full of thought and inspiration. On June 10th, Presiding Elder Smith opened the conference. After the appointment of committees the program was resumed. The reports of the pastors and district stewards were very favorable. Papers read, "The Preacher of the New Age," by Rev. O. H. Burbridge; "Procrastination and Its Effect," by Rev. H. C. White. The report of Ward Hall brought forward at this conference $223.
Tuesday morning convening of the Sunday School convention. Miss Myrtle Johnson, the superintendent of the district, in charge. The reports for the year ending June 10, 1919, were the best made in the history of the Wichita district. Papers read: The Winfield delegate, "Revival in Sunday School"; the Hutchinson delegate, "Modern Sunday School." The demonstrating classes were quite interesting and many delegates took an active part. Tuesday evening at 7:45 o'clock the annual address by the district superintendent.
Wednesday, June 11, 9 a. m., the district president, Mr. Glover, was introduced and took charge in a masterly way. Papers read: "How to Make Your League Successful," by Salina demeanor; "Relation of League and Church," Hutchinson delegate, and "How a League Should Be Conducted." by Wichita delegate. The reelected president, Mr. Glover, desires the prayer and co-operation of all. Wednesday at 2 p. m. the demonstration classes of the Sunday School by Rev. R. C. Henderson were excellent. Wednesday at 8 p. m. the praise services were accompanied by the holy spirit. The preacher of the hour, Rev O. H. Burbridge, was introduced by the P. E. E. W. Smith, taking as a text Neh. 2:15. All present enjoyed the sermon. It was interesting and soul-stirring. Following Rev. J. R. Ransom, D.D. opened the doors of the church and asked for souls for God; this was a great sermon.
Thursday the joint sessions were good. The district conference reached its culmination. Rev. J. R. Ransom was at his best. His words awakened new thought and inspiration, as he talked with us, by the way. Eloquence was displayed, logical in his reasoning, so much so he held the congregation spellbound. At 2:30 p. m. the election of officers. Miss Myrtle Johnson was re-elected superintendent of the Wichita district. She has proven her worth and ability to lead the work on to success. She has the prayers of all for greater achievements. At 8 p. m. the program was high class. Every person appeared acquitted himself creditably. The program consisted of solos, quartets, trios, readings, short talks, monologues and last, but not least, an address by Dr. J; R. Ransom on the subject, "The Passports That Were Not Granted."
The pastor, Rev. W. M. Enyard and wife, cannot be given too much praise for their splendid entertainment. Everybody seemed to have been pleased, and it was said this was the best session in the history of the district. May he and his wife live long and be prosperous.

IRISH FREEDOM
NEW YORK, June 26.—The bringing of the "Irish Question" into the peace conference, has caused the American delegates no end of embarrassment, because that question has been regarded as strictly domestic. It has been argued by many different people that if the Irish be permitted to air their grievances before the conference, the Negroes of America have the same right, and many of the delegates from various nations have taken that stand.
Concerning the logic of it, the New York Sun, daily, says:
"Now, if the Irish question is loaded with dynamite, the Negro question is loaded with TNT. Outside of Ireland nobody questions the legality of the kingdom's rule in that island, and inside of Ireland a good many persons do not question its legality, however much they object to it as a political fact. But inside the United States and outside of the United States everybody knows that the political condition imposed upon the Negro in the South is brutally, openly and completely illegal. That condition is imposed on the Negro in direct violation of the Constitution of the United States, and this violation of the Constitution is tolerated with the full knowledge and consent of a large majority of the white population of this country, North and South
The greatest surprise as well as shock came to the entire state when the Board of Regents of Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City, Mo., failed to re-elect President Clement Richardson for the next year. No other thought has occurred in the minds of the people of the state than that President Richardson would be re-elected, as he had shown during his first year's administration by his superior intelligence, excellent executive ability and general fitness that he was amply capable for this exacting position. There were reasons, however, for the division of vote among the members of the Board, and it is stated that there is much doubt of Mr. Richardson's re-election since another member of the Board must be chosen by the Governor to cast the seventh vote. The Sun sincerely hopes for the re-election of President Richardson.

(By Associated Negro Press)
CHICAGO, June 25—"Africa and only Africa, will be important in the world's politics for the next ten years," says Dr. Frederick Starr of the University of Chicago, antropologist, traveler and lecturer.
"Africa may cost, what is left of Europe, for Europe has neither the men nor the money to maintain dominion over Africa.
"Africa has 138,000,000 discontented people.
"Europe is sending back to Africa tens of thousands of Black men who have been trained to face white men under arms. These Black men, who have been denied arms in the past, can manufacture their own weapons in the future.
"Liberia is the only hope of Africa. Liberia may save the world from chaos. It is the greatest marvel of the nineteenth century, and I mean to make my exhibit of Liberia and Congo Free State so vivid and so real that it will impress these facts on all who come to the ethologist centenary celebration in Columbus June 20 to July 13.
Dr. Starr has postponed what will be his ninth trip to Japan in order to be present and supervise the display of his curios at the centenaryele-

"Liberia," says Dr. Starr, "represents the largest thing the Black man has ever accomplished. It is at present represented before the peace commission of Europe, with plans that territory unjustly taken from it by France and England may be restored. "Liberia represents the only expression of self-government in Africa, and I am not speaking as a radical when I say that this is the only hope of the continent.
"Egypt is in a foment. Morocco is held by force of arms. That which was German Africa will not be content under mandatory of any other nation. eLading French and English military and civil authorities have often said, by word and in writing, that with any considerable evidence of disorder their African possessions cannot be held by the number of men and the amount of money they can afford to spend on them."

CHICAGO, June 24—A careful survey, covering the entire nation, has disclosed to the Associated Negro Press the fact that there is a new awakening for justice in behalf of the people of our racial group.
In speaking of this change of sentiment, the outrages of various sorts, are not overlooked. It is a fact, however, that there has been more written and spoken truth, in the last six months, relative to the injustices heaped upon us, than has ever before occurred since slavery was abolished.
NEW BATH HOUSE DEDICATED.
Last Sunday afternoon from 3 to 5 o'clock a large crowd witnessed the dedication of the Paseo Bath House, recently turned over to Negroes by the Park Board of Kansas City. A most impressive service was conducted and the numbers on the program were exceptionally good. The music was furnished by the famous Second Regiment Band and the immense chorus which sang was under the direction of Prof. Clyde L. Glass. The Colored people of this city were indeed pleased with this splendid gift and showed their appreciation by turning out in huge numbers.

THE NEGRO, FOREIGN AND NATIVE
By Prof. Wm. H. Dawley.
Recently there have appeared in reputable magazines and rescripts in the Metropolitan dailies recitals of the superior virtues of the non-American born Negro. Instead of a reflection this is a compliment to the home product. For the descendants of the American born Negro slaves who know anything about the inside history of his slave ancestors admit and deny not that they did not spring from the purest and freest streams of African blood, but that they had already submitted to slavery before they were wrested from African soil. Only here and there did a warrior kidnapped or overpowered by slave hunters allow himself to be landed on foreign soil alive. But even these had for an example not only that peculiarly endowed race that produced the author of the commandments as well as the author of the beautitudes but also that no less inspired but highly gifted race that produced Pudar.
Now if the descendants of the off-occurrings of the coast of Africa after more than two centuries of revolting American slavery could on the very eve of freedom produce that wonderful heroine, Sojourner Truth or that incomparable orator, Samuel Ringgold or that peerless grand man eloquent, Frederick Douglass and within a generation, produce that matchless educational reformer, Booker Washington. If these descendants up to this time prefer to suffer, to serve and to learn rather than to sulk to destroy and to ruin they do not deem it a matter of jealousy or envy that their foreign brothers are able to reveal superior traits but a matter of rejoicing.
However these descendants have proved by physical examination given by the ruling class and by bravery under command of this same ruling class a physical condition superior to and a bravery unsurpassed by this ruling class.
Therefore I repeat that these encombs to the foreign Negro are not reflections but compliments to the American born Negro, on the contrary, at the same time a matter of disparagement to the race of the paragrynist which his own statistics prove has been eclipsed by the native egro product at least in physique and valor, if not in letters.
But the American Negro did not await the promise of freedom to all Negroes to hearten to the distress of the land of his birth and to display his intrepid bravery. For we find in the War of 1812 General Jackson, afterward President, in Louisiana in 1814 recognized the Negro's worth in these words: "Through a mistaken policy you have here-to-fore been denied participation in the glorious struggle of natural rights in which this country is engaged. This shall no longer exist. As sons of freedom you are now called upon to defend our most inestimable blessing. As Americans our country looks upon her adopted children for a valorous support, as a faithful return for the advantages enjoyed under her mild equitable government. As fathers, husbands and brothers, you are summoned to rally around the standard of the Eagle, to defend all of the most dear in existence. Due regard will be paid to the feelings of freemen and soldiers. You will not, by being associated with white men in the same corps, be exposed to improper comparison or sarcasm. As a distinct battalion or regiment pursuing the path of glory you will undivided receive the applause and gratitude of your countrymen. To assure you of my sincerity and my anxiety to engage your invaluable services to this country, I have communicated my wishes to the Governor of Louisiana who is fully informed as to the manner of enrollment and will give you any necessary information on the subject of this address." Page 76 "Missing Pages in American History, Laura E. Wilkes, 1414 Franklin St., Washington, D. C. How General Jackson must have turned in his grave when he read Gen. Ballou's Camp Funston order and his order on his arrival in France to the descendants of the men he addressed?
In her book of 91 pages Miss Wilkes has faithfully recorded the military doings of the American Negro from 1641-1815. Most, if not all of which find no place in the school books of the American youth or in the more serious histories of grown-ups. Miss Wilkes spent six years in studious search for these facts in colonial and state records. They also give glimpses of ald Halti rendered the Colonies not only in the Revolutionary War but the states in 1812. This tribute to black men is not only interesting, inspiring and fascinating but absolutely true and is verified by accurate references to the sources.

prived her of that tender care. Her father, the butler of Admiral Porter, attempted to supply this as devotedly as he could. He early discovered in his daughter a disposition, though persuasive, to do things different. Therefore it was not surprising; that she changed from the Methodist to the Episcopal faith under the venerable and learned Dr. Alexander Crummell; that she began the study of medicine at Howard University after graduating with honor from the High and Normal schools of Washington and teaching first in Salem-Winston, N. C., and now at Washington, D. C.
She then decided to become an author. Decision with her spells completion. She began for children a series of lives of American Colored persons of distinction in words of one syllable. The first was the life of Frederick Douglass, whom she knew personally. This ran through several editions. She is a lecturer of national reputation, has a charming voice and an engaging manner. The Missing Pages is her masterpiece and should be in the hands of every American youth regardless of color. Its style is chaste, direct and unostentatious. Aside from its inestimable historic value, it is of equal worth as a spec men of literature.
POLICE
OFFICER CORNELIUS CARTER
The above cut is a splendid likeness of Officer Cornelius Carter, who for nine years has been one of the most efficient members of the Metropolitan Police Department. He has no superior, if any equal. He seems to exercise a sort of influence over criminals, making them an easy prey. He is a Master Mason, genial, jovial, affable gentleman. Born at Lawrence, Kansas, where he spent many years in the employ of the Rock Island Railway Company. Coming here practically a stranger, he soon connected himself with the department and it has ever been his highest ambition to do his duty. The general topic on the streets and around the fireside relative to him is regardless of fear, favor or political pull, he performs his full duty and is considered a thorn in the side and of all who disregard the law. He is physically a splendid type of manhood, active and always on the alert, endeavoring to protect life, limb and property.
Last Friday night at Eighteenth street and the Paseo the killing of Jack Grimmer and the capturing of his four companions put an end to a desperate band of desperades, hold-up men and motor car thieves, and brings to mind a similar gun battle he had several years ago in the West Bottoms, resulting in the killing of Goldie Jackson of St. Louis, and the capturing of his pal, who is now serving a 10-year sentence in the penitentiary at Jefferson City, Mo., for the robbing of Jean Gillespie's saloon. We feel too much cannot be done or said for Officer Carter, as he is highly respected by the best citizens, black and white. A medal of some kind will be awarded him, not for doing his duty, but for courage and bravery.
Miss Edith A. Williams, daughter of the late Prof. T. W. H. Williams for thirty two years a teacher in the Schools of this city and Mrs. V. J. Williams, has been appointed as a teacher in the public schools for the next year. Miss Williams graduated from Lincoln High School in the class of '17 and from Lincoln Institute in the class of '19. She is attending the summer school at the Kansas State Normal, Emporia, Kansas. The many friends of Miss Williams are pleased to learn of her appointment.

Subject: THE YEAR OF JUBILEE
Text: It shall be a jubilee unto you; "Lev. 25:10."
By Rev. Mose Williams.
The word "Jubilee" derived from the Hebrew word "Jobel" which means a sounding of trumpets, by which the year of Jubilee was announced. The most ancient festivals were strikingly typical of gospel blessings. This was the case with feast of tabernacles, the feast of the pass over, and equally so, with the year of Jubilee. It is obvious from the Redeemers, application, of one
A. E.
of Isaiah's prophesies, that this was the case. Hence he said, "I am come to preach the acceptable year of the gladsomeelord." Isaiah 61:1 & Luke 4:19. Now this acceptable year, is the year of the introduction of the gladsome tidings of the gospel into the world.
Let us then trace the resemblance, between the year of jubilee, and the gospel dispensation. Let us notice first in the blessings conferred, and too, in the circumstances connected with its proclamation. Notice with respect to the Jubilee the blessings it conferred. The term jubilee signifies, sound of joy, or glad proclamation and this joyful sound, related to "five things." The remission of debts. Those who through adverse circumstances were unable to meet the demands of their creditors, were now freed from their obligations. This is the first striking trait of resemblance. The gospel publishes to a guilty world, the "remission of sins." Christ said, repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name, among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. (Lake 24:47.) Christ came to forgive sins. Christ died to forgive sins. Christ arose again, that forgiveness of sins might be preached. Christ is exalted to give remission of sins. The Jubilee was a year of Liberation from bond age. Hence the bond servants were now liberated, and obtained their free dom, once more. The gospel also proclaims liberty to the bound by knowing its truths. Men are made free. Free from sin, free from the effect of sin, free from death, free from hell, free from destruction and free from doing what the devil wants us to do. I thank God; that I am in Truth, and I am in favor of it.
The Devil is against the Church,
favor with everything that the Devil
is against. The Devil is against the
and I am for it.
142. Devil is against serving God and I am in favor of it.
The Devil is against Temperance and I am in favor of it.
The Jubilee was a year of restoration of forfeited possessions. Mortgaged estates, now returned to the original owner (ver. 25.) (illustrated). Now man by sin has lost his original inheritance, both earthly and spiritual. Lost Eden and its joys, lost the divine favor, and its blessness. Lost a sweet home, and the non-ship of a rich father. Lost the friendly relation of the animals of the forest. But the gospel re in-states us in the divine family of God and confers celestial titles. The gospel exaltes to celestial prospects and reveal to us, and makes us heirs of, "an inheritance, incorruptible, undefiled." The gospel describes for us, a possession, infinitely more rich and glorious than that which man lost by sin. The Jubilee was a year of freedom from toil. It was a year of rest; ye shall not sow. "We shall not reap that which growth of itself in the field, nor ager the grapes of the vine undressed. Ye shall let the land rest, the entire year from cultivation of any kind. Now to violate one of these laws, was a punishment, beyond measure. Now the gospel is emphatically a dispensation of rest. Rest from all toils and burdensome services, which formed a yoke too heavy to be borne, rest from expensive sacrifices, divers washings and extended journeyings and etc. We are living in the Sabbath of the world, the Jubilee of rest. We who have believed the gospel, have entered rest: Jesus relieves from the Jewish yoke, and gives a yoke that is easy and a burden that is light, and true rest to the soul.
The Jubilee was a year of Abundant provision, and universal joy. It was a year of abundance and of festivity and gladness, a year of plenty. So the gospel reveals a heavenly banquet, a feast of fat things; the marriage supper of the King a Son, and etc. The gospel calls us to enjoy a plentitude of blessings. It proclaims a Kingdom of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Note the circumstances connected with its proclamation.
The Jubilee was to be proclaimed on the Day of Atonement. This was one of the greatest days in the Jewish calendar. A Bullock was stain as a sin offering; A Ram was presented as a burnt-offering; and a Scape-Goat with the sins of the people, confessed over its head, was dismissed into the wilderness, to bear their sins away. The gospel Jubilee, is based on the Sacrifice of Christ. We obtain redemption with all its blessings, through the glood of Jesus Christ, who suffered and died for us on the Tree of the Cross.
The Jubilee was to be announced by the sound of Trumpets. It was to be loudly published. So the gospel is to be proclaimed, its glad-tidings published, through the instrumentality, of the Minister of the Gospel, who is to cry loud, to a lost world, that they may hear, and believe and be saved.
The proclamation was to all the people. The trumpets were to be sounded through all the land. The gospel is to be preached through all the World to eevry creature.
The reason for the institution of the Jubilee it was to be a remedy for those evils which accompanied Human society and Human governments. The day which commenced the Sabbatical year and the year of Jubilee was called "New Years Day" a day which gave the poor unfortunate people an opportunity to begin over in life. Oh! this was a joyful time with the poor.
Now as we enter the New Year of 1917. Let us start a new life. New alms, new prospects, new ideas, new aspirations, new objects, new ambitions, new resolutions and new determinations.
Tradition tells us that every Israelite blew nine blast, so as to make the trumpet sound throughout all the land. Now this celebration last until the Jewish captivity into Babylon. (537 B. C.)
Now let us call your attention to our own Jubilees, for our conclusion. The National Thanksgiving day, of the United States. (Illustrated. The United States great Centennial Jubilee. (Every hundred years.) The Mardi-Graus of Louisiana is a

CAPITOL PETROLEUM COMPANY withdraws its Treasury Stock from the market, on July 5th.
A 15 PER CENT CASH DIVIDEND will be paid in July, 1919, to all stockholders of record, July 5th, 1919.
CAPITOL PETROLEUM HAS PAID $43\frac{1}{2}$ per cent dividends to stockholders in one year.

No. 3, $12\frac{1}{2}$ per cent.....April, 1919
No. 4, 15 per cent.....July, 1919
A 15 per cent Cash Dividend will be Paid on July 15 1919, to Stockholders of Record July 5, 1919
Owing to recent developments the Board of Directors has decided to withdraw the Treasury Stock from the market on July 5th, 1919, which is the date of record for subscribers to participate in the July dividend, which will be 15 per cent on par. If the stock is placed on the market again, the price will probably be beyond the reach of a great many of our friends, therefore we urge you to buy now.
As stated above, the Treasury Stock will be withdrawn July 5th. However, all indications now point to an early over-subscription of the 25 cent allotment, therefore we cannot prominent to fill all orders received to that date, but will fill them as long as the Board of Directors will permit drawing on the 25 cent allotment.
Take Warning! Last Chance July 5th
To get Treasury Stock at present price, and to participate in the July dividend your subscription must be dated and mailed on or before July 5, 1919.
STOCK NOW 25 cents per share, reservations accepted by wire on short notice.
This is Your Last Chance to buy Capitol Petroleum.

HANNIBAL DISTRICT MEETING
OF A. M. E. CHURCH AT PARIS,
MO., JUNE 11, 11, 12, 1919.
The District Conference, Sunday
School Convention Allen Christian
Endeavor League and Woman's Mite
Missionary Society of Hannibal Disti-
tict, was held at Paris, Mo., June 10,
12, 1919. The District Conference occu-
pied the foremon of the first and
second days of the session, with a
joint session on the last day.
The meeting was opened on Tuesday morning, June 10th, with devotional service, conducted by Rev. J. K. Ponder of Louisiana, Mo. The audience joined in singing a very spirited hymn, after which Rev. P. C. Crews, presiding elder of the district, was presented and preached an uplifting gospel message. This was followed by the Holy Communion consecrated by Revs. W. B. Brooks of Hannibal, Mo., and Rev. E. R. Johnson of Palmyra, Mo.
The convention went into organization with Rev. P. C. Crews presiding, assisted by Rev. N. C. Buren of the Columbia District and Rev. S. L. Brooks of the St. Joseph District. Rev. J. W. Garner of Clarksville, Mo., was elected secretary. Other visitors present were: Rev. M. S. Bryant, Rev. Dr. Maloney of St. Joseph, Rev. W. H. Baize and Mitchell of Quincy, Ill., Rev. S. D. Lovell of Lathrope, Mo., and Mrs. P. C. Crews, conference treasurer of the W. M. M. S.
The program consisted of papers and short addresses which elicited very timely, interesting and inspiring discussions. Devotionals for the other meetings were conducted by Rev. D. W. Oaks, G. W. Leach, S. D. Lovell, H. Washington and W. H. Maloney.
Sermons preached at each session were searching, and made a deep spiritual impression on all hearts. In each was pressed home the need of seeking the Holy Spirits presence and help. After the sermon on Tuesday evening by Rev. W. B. Brooks, the convention listened to welcome addresses delivered by the local talent and response in behalf of the district by Rev. J. S. Craven of Kirksville, Mo. The afternoon of the 10th and 11th inst. were devoted to work of teh Sunday School Convention.
A feature of the convention was a lecture on the "Adolescent Period," by Rev. Dr. Maloney.
Thursday morning, June 12th, the Allen Christian Endeavor League was held. In this the ideal of loyalty to our church was brought out. Whether for worship, meditation, recreation or amusement, if socials be properly conducted, all could be made to feel at home in God's house and among His people.
At 1 p. m. the W. M. M. S. convened and held a most profitable session. Much interest manifested and much work reported accomplished during the year. At 5 p. m. a joint session was held and much business of importance was held. At this session Mr. C. W. Crews, a member of the faculty of Quindaro College, was introduced and accorded the privilege of the convention.
At 8 p. m. an entertainment was given for the benefit of the pastor; a very interesting program had been arranged by Mrs. J. W. Garner and was carried out in full. An interesting feature of the program was a splendid address delivered by Mr. C. W. Crews, in which he made an urgent appeal in behalf of Quindaro College for postage. Then followed resolutions thanking the pastor and his amiable wife for the splendid arrangement for entertaining the convention, the members and friends for their generous hospitality.
While the representation was not as large as former district meetings, as a whole the convention was a suc-

BISHOP N. C. CLEAVES, D. D.
BISHOP N. C. CLEAVES, D. B.
Those who failed to hear Bishop Cleaves and the singing of the choir last Sunday at Jamison Temple C. M. E. Church, under the pastorate of M. E. Walker, missed one of the great spiritual treats of the season. The sermon by Bishop Cleaves was within itself of inestimable value. Our first thought of the Bishop is of the great preacher. But he is the great preacher because he is, first of all, the great man; and it is of the man itself, the man behind the sermon, with which this comment has to do. Bishop Cleaves is one of the men of our day and race, whose words we never tire of hearing. One sermon will be on the true distinction between the word that expresses energy and the word that expresses grinding and fatigue. A lecture will be given on democracy, and again it will be on manners, both of which we find many things to sleep the mind. Another sermon will be on religion. And he will present it in such a manner as to convince the doubter that religion is nothing other than the divine life in the human soul, a life which manifests itself by the growth which brings forth, the divine flowers of the human heart, unselfishness, love, fearlessness, serenity, patience and service. And the sermons and lectures of Bishop Cleaves are always worthy and the treatments are always fertile because his mind is full. When the mind of man is full, like a wholesome river, it is also clear. Even in the social circle the bishop is always in demand and much sought after, because of his genial manner and intensely interesting conversation. His knowledge of the world, acquired through study and extensive travel; his ability to describe in the clearest English, the scenes and incidents through which he has passed; his description of the many eminent men he has met and conversed with make him the center of a group of interested listeners in any gathering.
When Bishop Cleaves emphasized the possibility of erecting the superstructure of Jamison Temple, C. M. E. Church by 1922 the voice of approval from the congregation proved that we are the most enthusiastic people in the world. There are others more excitable, but there are none so enthusiastic. And the sense of enthusiasm signifies—God in us. Despite this fact, the consensus of opinion is that Bishop Cleaves touched the heart of the people in this city as never before. Let him be with us again and in the Jamison auditorium of the near future touch our hearts and remind us that we are beings of reality and inheritors of eternity.
THE PERISCOPE.
Africa, "the land of darkness," is slowly, but surely, become the continent of light. Africa, endowed by nature with richer gifts than any other continent of the world, is swaying the politics of the nations of the earth, for one reason and another. Civilization has reached its highest pinnacle in Africa, and in some sections of it, one may be lead to believe that civilization has reached its lowest ebb. Nevertheless, Africa is grand and glorious in promise, and no less a person than Dr. Frederick Starr of the University of Chicago has recently said so publicly.
There are a great many people of our group who sneer at the thought that their forebears came from the continent of Africa. Others inquire: "What have I to do with Africa? I live in America." There should be a cessation of that kind of talk about the African Continent. That kind of talk is a true sign of ignorance—ignorance of history, conditions and human duty.
Africa is worthy of our respect, honor and pride. Africa may yet rise up in its might and redeem us from what ever oppression now suffered by this American group.
LABOR.
Keen to observe the "handwriting on the wall," the American Federation of Labor has turned a summersault of attitude on the Race conditions of America that may be regarded as one of the most significant exhibitions witnessed in many years. Labor has voted, practically unanimously, to admit the Colored Laborers on "terms of equality." Labor has seen that the Colored people of the country are fast falling into economic power, and without support from this side much progress will be lacking. Of course, it will remain for the individual organization "back home" to put the decree of the convention into effect. Scores and scores of delegates publicly told of their locals already admitting members of the Race. There is a growing sentiment in favor of giving fair play to the Colored man, as little as it may seem at times, and the move by labor will have unquestioned effect on many avenues of progress.

Bundy Fund Growing
Bundy Fund Growing
KANSAS CITY TO RAISE THREE
THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR
THE BUNDY DEFENSE
FUND.
The splendid manner in which the Negroes of Kansas City are rallying to the defense of Dr. Leroy M. Bundy in contributing funds to secure for him a new hearing is indeed gratifying and demonstrates that the Negro people are beginning to depend upon their own energies to accomplish things. There has been constant call both in person and over the telephone at the headquarters of the Committee in the Masonic Temple, 1803 E. 18th street making inquiries as to what they could do and how much they would be expected to contribute while many subscriptions have been voluntarily sent in and it will be pleasing to many to know that several of these subscriptions were from our white friends, notably: Father Cyprian, St. Monica's Roman Catholic Church, Mr. J. E. Console, Thos R. Marks and others.
Every loyal race loving Negro is urged to place his or her name upon the list of contributors to this fund. All organizations of every kind are urged to contribute to this worthy cause. Every person or organization who contributes more than one dollar, his or her name will be published in the Race papers.
The defense is in immediate need of funds to pay for the record, so that the application for the removal of Dr. Bundy from the penitentiary can be heard. So subscribe quickly. Let's give a demonstration of the Kansas City spirit one time in the interest of the Race. Pledge cards can be found n all Race places, where the Bundy placards are displayed. Step in at once and pledge your support. Subscriptions can also be made at the office of the Kansas City Sun and "The Call." Teams are being organized to canvass the city, to give every one a chance to contribute. Any one desiring to assist in making the canvass, call Rev. James W. Hurse, Bell, E488 400. Dr. Bundy is in the penitentiary simply because he is a black man. LET'S GET HIM OUT.
On last Sunday after a spirited appeal by Lawyer Calloway and Editor Crews of the Sun, $63.8$ in cash was contributed by the congregation at Ebenezer A. M. E. Church, 16th and Lydia of which Rev. W. T. Osborne is the able pastor. At the same time more than $25.00 was secured in pledges. The following is a complete list of those who have subscribed at the time of our going to press. Don't you think you ought to help?

WESTERN NEGRO PRESS ASSN'
TO MEET IN KANSAS CITY.
Newspaper Men Will Meet With The Oklahoma Boosters July 25-26.
To Members of the Western Negro Press Association, and to All Other Newspaper and Magazine Representatives, Greeting:
By the authority vested in me as president of the Western Negro Press Association, I hereby call upon you to convene in the 15th annual session of said association in the Masonic Temple, Eighteenth and Woodland streets, Kansas City, Mo., July 25 and 26, 1919, for the purpose of transacting all business of the association that may be brought before the convention, and for taking up and discussing important public questions affecting the interests and welfare of
J. S. HARRIS
One of the capable, energetic and
hustling Deputies for the American
Woodmen.
the Race in the United States of America.
I earnestly urge all newspaper and magazine owners, whether members of the association or not, to send representatives to this meeting, which will be one of the most interesting in the history of our association.
Never before have the opportunities seemed so bright for the Colored newspaper man as now; and never before have the attending responsibilities been so pronounced as those now devolving upon us.
It is for the Colored press to blaze the way for the Race through the veiled future of a great reconstruction period, and to meet these grave responsibilities, to act wisely and timely, is one of the big problems we will attempt to solve at this meeting.
Another very interesting feature of this meeting will be the entertainment in Kansas City on the 24th and 25th of July of the Oklahoma Boosters, a large party of Race people who will travel in autos from Tulsa, Ok., via Winfield, Wichita, Newton and Topeka to Kansas City. The press boys have been invited to make the entire trip with the party and doubtless many of them will accept the invitation.
Allow me again to urge all Colored publication owner to send representatives to this meeting.
A. J. SMITHERMAN, Pres., Tulsa, Oklahoma.
J. D. COOKE, Secretary, Gary, Indiana.

BALTIMORE, MD., June 18.—Bethel A. M. E. Church has gone nearly "over the top" raising the remaining $33,000 due on its mortgage debt; $30,000 was secured.
The big edifice was crowded almost to suffocation Monday night, when the initial conferences into which the rally forces had been divided, were read. It was early Tuesday morning when the final reports were announced, and as the big church bell tolled the news of victory, a tired and happy concourse of people wended their way home to snatch an hour or two of joyous sleep.
It was a triumph for the pastor, Rev. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks. He having nearly wiped out a debt of $74,000 during the two years he has been stationed here, besides raising over $25,000 for other purposes. The $3,000 needed will be raised this month.
Bishop J. Albert Johnson preached at the church Sunday morning. Local African Methodist churches were closed at night while their pastors and congregations went to Bethel Church to help swell the rally fund. CLEVELAND, O., June 23—The fifth Spingarn medal has been awarded to Archibald H. Grimke, of Washington, D. C., for seventy years' of distinguished service to his country and his Race.
