LEISURE HOUR REFLECTIONS FROM A QUIET CORNER.
By Dennis S. Thompson.
Most people wake up regularly every morning anywhere from five o'clock to eight. That is, part of them wake. They rise, dress, eat breakfast and begin the activities of the day. They are no longer sleeping. And yet there is good reason to think that many of them are not really awake. Nature has been much more generous with most of us than we realize. She has endowed us with wealth that we never use. The majority of people have good enough brains but they are too indoctent to exert them. Their ambition is asleep. Probably every normal person could do one thing excellently, but few ever get beyond the "passable" stage. Wake up. Waking up to the realization both of your possibilities and deficiencies, will be a great help. Wake up to the fact the world has a place for you. Wake up to the chance of being somebody, or achieving something. It is mighty bad to go through life like a sleepwalker. Wake up.
The good we get out of the day depends largely on the good we will put into it. Our blessings are not contained in the hours like bonbons in a box, but they grow out of them, under proper cultivation, like seeds planted in good soil. Instead of wishing for blessings, you should make them, keeping in mind the fact, that whatever you get out of life, will be in direct proportion to what you put into it.

ed with the willingness with which many of the ministers, and the laity responded. The amount collected for educational purposes were one thousand dollars, which I learn was the largest ever received in the Kansas Conference.
The educational rally was preceded by a stirring address by Governor Henry J. Allen, who spoke on "Christian Education." The substance of Governor Allen's address was honesty and diligence; he dwell largely on the importance of people being just what they should be, and, not given so much to the practice of hypocrisy, that good intentions must emanate from the heart, and not just be simply pretense. He urged upon the people the advantages of, the value of home owning, pointing out that the owner of a home who was honest and had the proper thought, would do more to further the interests of the community in which they lived, in that they will do more to improve the envious thereof. The address was well received. Bishop H. B. Parks, counselled the people that they give more liberally

to the support of Christian education. "If we are ever to be anybody, he said, we must begin to give like the white people, we must give big money." In saying this he made the duty of every Christian plain, emphasizing the great necessity at this time, of the education of the heart, as well as the hand, and the head.
I am glad to see the people awakening each year to the needs of Christian education, and rising to meet the emergencies. I hope to see the time though, when the laity will give sufficient support to the ministry, that we may not have to trouble the general public in our meetings for help in getting our educational money. Even in the rural districts, where the church membership is small, at this time, it would be no great burden on each member to give ten dollars each year toward education.
There is need just now for more educated and trained Christian workers; there are too many people old and young being received, into the churches, just to be a burden and a care, to others, because they have not been saved, and because they have not studied the Bible, they will not study it, and consequently they are ignorant of their Christian duty.
An educated ministry at this time is evident; but I do not think every man who feels that he has been called to the ministry should be ordained. There should be kept in the laity some of our most conspicuously successful Christian workers in order that people may have constantly before their thought the truth that God calls them and often calls them to preach as truly as He calls the men who are ordained to the Christian ministry.
There is a time when more choice young men should be entering the ministry. There is a loud call for consecrated, well trained men in the pulpit, but loud as is this call, important as this is field of work, there is one even louder, and that is for men who have no call to the ministry to recognize that this is just as truly a call to preach the gospel, to tell their friends and their neighbors how great things the Lord hath done for them.
Some of the greatest achievements in our whole enterprise of Christianity have wrought in just this way, and some of the largest triumphs of the cross of Christ in the world are still to be accomplished by those who hear this call of God, and begin their work among their friends.
There are so many times that I hear some of our business people complaining that members of the race do not patronize them, and in many instances I find this true a certain extent, but on the other hand if you will inquire into the matter you will often find the business man in fault. While in a grocery store the other day a farmer stopped in with produce for sale. The grocer said he might buy if he could buy at his figures, and he further explained that he always went to the market and looked for farmers that were compelled to dispose of their produce at a sacrifice. "Why I make all of my money by buying from fellows that run up against an "overstocked market," he said. The farmer listened to awe while the grocer told his story, and after he had finished turned to him and said: "Ob cohce you're a stranger tu me 'my frnd, and I'm sut'iny gwine tu abertizt' yo' tu ebery fa'mah what kum's intu dis Kansas City Makhit, an' I sho' God is gwine tu do al' I kin tu fre's yo' out."
Business people should be careful about what they say. So many times we have entertained angels, and unawares. The man that comes into your place of business, blind in one eye, and with the other shut, and a linen duster on in the winter, is not always a "Numskull," he will in any event have ears and many times can

To say less would be to underestimate his worth. To say more would be superfluous.
Dr. Jenkins, who is pastor of the famous Linwood Boulevard Christian Church, Editor of the stalwart Kansas City Post and a real humanitarian who gave glorious service upon the battlefields of France and who as an orator, writer and publicist has no superior in all America, will speak on next Friday night before the Southwest Missouri Annual Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church on "Reconstruction Problems." The chorus of one hundred voices from Western University will augment Allen's famous choir. All Kansas City is invited to hear him.
hear when they cannot see. So my advice would be to all, not to straddle the fence, but be honest, and frank with everyone.
If I shall tear down my neighbor's business, to build up my own, I shall not care for any business. No people have ever built successfully by tearing down; God has decreed that we must build together, that the successful ones must lift as they climb.
And so it must be. But when I reflect upon the inequalities of life, I often wonder that there are as many successful as there are.

J. P. MAYNARD DEAD.
Kansas City was shocked to hear of the death last Tuesday of Sir James P. Maynard Past Grand Chancellor and Supreme Representative of the Knights of Pythias. Mr. Maynard was about 65 years of age and was a well known figure in this community. He has been a Pythian for twenty seven years and one of the charter members of Lily Lodge who will have charge of the funeral. Doubtless Grand Chancellor Lloyd and many prominent Pythians throughout the jurisdiction will attend the funeral which will be held Sunday from either the Vine street or the Second Baptist church which had not been fully determined as we go to press. He leaves a niece, Mrs. Ora Braden of 2012 Olive street from whose home the funeral will be held.
DR. DIBBLE RETURNS HOME.
Dr. J. E. Dibble, Kansas City, Mo., who spent several weeks in the city en route home from the National Medical Association, returned home last week. A number who sought his medical advice and were benefited desired him to hang out his shingle in this city, but the doctor said he had too good a practice at his home town. He looked at some valuable property for business purposes before leaving.

ALL HAIL MAYOR SMITH
Heroes are made in a moment and only unexpected emergencies bring out the real character of some men who become immortal. To the list of immortals which this country has produced must be added the name of gallant and courageous Mayor E. P. Smith of Omaha who had the courage to see his duty and do it regardless of consequences. The Negroes of America admire Mayor Smith, not for his protection of a Negro criminal, but for his decisive and determined stand for law and order.
The vicious and unwarranted assault made upon this chief executive of his city by a lawless and vicious element should cause the red blush of shame to mount the cheeks of every real American in this country and it is but a forewarning to those in authority all over our land that the anarchistic, law-defying, Bolshevistic element of this country are paving the way for the downfall of this boastful, boasted Republic. The loss of a two million dollar court house, the sacking of business houses, the wounding and maiming of guardians of the law and the destruction of homes means nothing to this alien and law-defying element. What they need is to be shoved into hell from the end of a high-powered rifle or a machine gun operated by real red-blooded Americans and the sooner the better for the peace and security of our country.

Amid great enthusiasm and highly manifested interest, the Wayne Minor Post was organized at a letter held at the Soldiers' and Sailors' Service Club. Homer Roberts opened the meeting with a fitting address as to the object, scope and importance of such an organization. The ex-service men all pledged their support to the movement to make a record in increasing of the membership of the Post. The spirit of the meeting was in harmony with the object of the Post.

JUDGE WELCH DENIES STATEMENT.
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 30, 1919.
In the Kansas City Sun and Kansas City Call of last week a false statement was made which I desire to correct. I wish to inform you that I had nothing to do with articles, nor did I encourage any article to be written, nor did I permit or sanction my name to be used in the organization of the proposed associated Democratic Club, as stated in the article signed by J. L. Talton. I wish to state further that I have not recognized any Colored Club other than the Negro Central Democratic Organization of Kansas City and Jackson County Missouri.
CASIMIR WELCH.
STATEMENT FROM EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Of the Negro Central Democratic Organization.
The Negro Central Democratic Organization is the only incorporated Negro Organization in the state. Having a membership of over 2000 members, and has increased its membership, in new members 776 the past six weeks, with a slogan for 3000 members for January 1920. In its ranks peace and harmony reigns supreme. It is not organized for the purpose of fighting anyone in the Democratic Party, but we are organized for the purpose of maintaining a continuous Democratic organization that would promote and inculcate Democratic principles 365 days in the year. We therefore encourage, rather than discourage, Democratic clubs; in order that this may be done our constitution provides for a chairman of each ward and township whose duties are to assist anyone in organizing and forming Democratic Clubs. This has been done to the satisfaction of those who are upholding the principles of Democracy. The more Clubs formed the merrier. We further feel that this could be done without interfering or jeopardizing the interest of any one. We deplore anything that would threaten the solidarity of Negro Democracy. We meet the 1st Thursday night in each month. Our headquarters are 1509 E. 18th Street.

Down at Ardmore, Okla., the state where they ran a mayor and other city officials out of Drumright, a state that is rockribbed Democratic and that holds the same views upon the Negro that Reed holds, or at least gives utterance to, they rotten-egged the great champion of white supremacy and would not allow him to speak. And this was Senator Reed, our "jim," the greatest "orator" of them all.

| KANSAS A. ME, CONFERENCE.
Kansas City, Kansas, Sept. 29.—The
twenty-ninth annual session of the
Kansas Afrlean Methodist Episcopal
Conference has passed into history
as one of the great sessions in the
history of the organiation, and the
largest amount of money ever raised
by the conference at one time in its
history was put on the table Thursday
‘night after a masterly address by Gov-
ernor Allen.
Every session of the conference was
full of interest, and Bishop H. Blanton
Parks was,at his best. It was a busy
‘session from start to finish. ‘The
‘opening sermon was preached by the
Rey, W. C. Williams of Omaha, and
it was indeed a fine sermon, and
strictly to the point, Dr, Williams
‘had prepared the sermon for the occa
ston, and he delivered the message
with force.
There is much credit due Dr. F.
Griffin, and the Member of the First
African Methodist Episcopal church
for the manner in which the members
of the conference and the visitors
were all cared for, and the excellent
meals served in the lecture room of
the church. The improvements show
ed up well, and there were many ex.
pressions of congratulations from the
visitors.
Bishop Parks was accompanied by
his wife, and she added much to the
success, She is congenial and made
many friends during her stay in Kan
‘sas City, where she was at one time a
‘citizen,
__Dr. J. C. Caldwell, of Nashville,
‘Tenn, secretary of the Allen Christian
‘Endeavor League, and whose name is
‘before the church for one of the next

ens, was active, and he conducted
the study of the Bible early morning
during the conference, which proved
[beneficial to the ministers. Dr, Cald:

QUARTERLY MEETING SUNDAY.
The last Quarterly meeting of this Conference year of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, 14th and Spruce, Rev. J. H. Goodin, pastor, will be held Sunday October 5th at 3 o'clock. Rev. R. Davis of Centennial will preach the Sacramental sermon. All sister churches and the public are invited.
BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH.
1325 E. 5th St.
Rev. Geo. W. Devlin, Pastor.
Friends and members you have not heard from us through the columns of the Sun for several weeks but we are not aleep. Our pastor, Rev. Geo. W. Devlin, is on the job and has the ability to do the work and you that think otherwise come and hear him. His subject Sunday night was "On the Fence;" the text "How Long Halt Ye Between Two Opinions?" In his outlines he pointed out the poor fellow on the fence sitting puzzled and undecided between hell and heaven; between the Angel of Mercy and the devil. Like Reuben he is double minded, unstable as water and cannot excel; tossed about by every wind of doctrine and temptation wanting to do right and afraid of going to hell, yet unable to give up the world, subdue the flesh and resist the devil. How many, they swear off from the Bar Room today, go back tomorrow, make their vow on Sunday and break them on Monday, promised ten thou-sh and things in life and never accomplish anything there is between the Hawk and the Buzard on anything you offer for good. My friend Joshua was a true type of the decided man for God; he said: "As for me and My House will serve God" and he said to Israel "Choose Ye this Day Whom you will serve" and Elijah said "If the Lord he God serve him and Jesus says "No man can serve two Masters and the only happy people are those who have decided for good or bad. Decision for God rejoices here below ever when overwhelmed with sorrow, Despair never follows disaster and grief hope climbs over the sun mountain peak of difficulty, the sun gilds every dark cloud which shrouds the struggling soul for heaven and in Eternity the crown of Decision will be the Diadem of Glory....We must thank you for taking the paper from us so freely and sorry to inform you that Bettle Payne

EBENEZER CHURCH.
By Ona B. Wilson
"I would rather be a door keeper in the house of my Lord than to dwell in the temples of wickedness." Such was the sentiment expressed by all Sunday at Ebenezer. Rev. J. W. Williams of the Kansas Conference preached Sunday morning subject "Christian Torch Bearers" St. Matthew 5:13-16. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. After having been soared to the skies in the afternoon by our wonderful chorus directed by Prof. Clyde Leroy Glass the congregation listened to a forcible and practical sermon by the Rev. A. T Walker, pastor of Jamison Temple C M. E. Church, subject "Without converse, great is the mystery of God

Williams preached a practical, spiritual sermon, and many showed outwardly the fervent fire that burned within, subject to "Fragments." St. John 6:12. Eighteen people unite with the church Sunday. The total for the week was twenty. But few pastors are found that have kept the spiritual and financial side going equally as well as Rev. W. T. Osborne is doing. Ebeneze is closing one of the most successful years ever, both spiritually and financially. Many visitors were present Sunday. Among those present were some of the former congregation of Rev.

A RELIGIOUS SERVICE IN LYRIC HALL SUNDAY OCTOBER 5.
Various statements have been circulated throughout the city concerning the affairs at Highland Avenue Baptist Church. The true facts are as follows: After a successful pastorate of two and one half years, I have resigned the said Highland Avenue Baptist Church for no other reason than the fact, that a few disgruntled people refuse to be disciplined. Sixty two members have withdrawn from the said Church with letters by a vote of the majority and have gone into organization which will hold its service Sunday morning at 11:00 o'clock and evening at 8:00 o'clock at Lyrick Hall where the public is cordially invited. A trained choir will render special music. Sermon by Rev. J. H. Brooks

ALLEN CHAPEL
Monday night Sept. 2th, 1919 will go down in history of Allen Chapel as having the Banner Night of its existence, never to be forgotten by the vast audience assembled to witness the burning of the mortgage. Bishop Parks together with members of the Kansas and Nebraska Conference, representatives of the Southwest Missouri Conference, worshipers from the various churches; including our sister churches, the Second Baptist Church and St. Stephens Baptist Church, joined with us in our hours of triumph and sang with us in spirit and in truth "Thank God I'm Satisfied" and as Rev. J. W. Hurse sang "I'd Stop Right Here and Pray, and in our hearts we did so. The services were in charge of the Debt Paying Club, who worked so faithfully that this might be. The program concluded reminiscences by the original members who were Sisters Jane Kane, Birdie Williams, Isabel Martin. Praise service—Singing of Old Fashioned Hymns by sisters Martha and Sarah Johnson; history of Allen Chapel by James Crews, Mr. Frank A. Harris President of the Debt Paying Club, introduced the other officers, then delivered the address of the evening; telling of their herculean task and its consummation; an appreciation by Hon. N. C. Crews; remarks by Bishop H. B. Parks; Sister Kate Harris and Brother Henry Williams struck the matches to light-the mortgage, passing it to the sisters sitting in front who
THE CHURCH OF THE NATIONAL SCHOOL OF CHRISTIANITY
have worked so unceasingly; brief talks were made by Rev. John R. Ransom, Rev. Chandler, Prof. Chas. Stewart and Rev. J. W. Hurse. . . Thursday a new vision came to Brother H. Williams that by systematizing the pledging and paying of this debt it could be wiped out. The Debt Paying Club caught the vision—hence the result. The success of it all is due to the untiring energy and indomitable will of our esteemed pastor, Dr. Wm. H. Thomas, who witnessed the crowning effort of his pastorate of six years in Allen Chapel. They are proud of him and never more so than on last Sunday evening at 7:20 when he delivered an address at the Lnwood Blvd. Christian Church by request. The Allen Chapel choir accompanied him and did justice to the occasion. . . Rev. J. C. Caldwell, Secretary of Allen Christian Endeavor League, occupied the pulpit at Allen 4:4 "And He Must Needs Go through to Saramia" . . . Dr. Thomas preached on "Assurance" at the evening service.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today made public a letter received from a colored citizen of Knoxville, Tenn., reciting brutalities and indignities to which colored people in that city were subjected, making it necessary for citizens, both white and colored, to petition Governor Roberts to order white soldiers removed from that city. The letter is as follows:
The soldiers sent to check the mob that attacked the jail here on the night of August 30, and liberated all the white prisoners, did also as much harm as the mob. A false report was circulated to the effect that Negroes had killed two white men. This was done to turn the attention of the soldiers from the mob at the jail. The soldiers, hearing this report, rushed into the colored section with a machine gun and began firing. As a result, one colored man and one of the officers commanding the soldiers were killed.
The soldiers were given orders by someone to search and disarm all Negroes. A more disgraceful order was never issued. From four o'clock Sunday morning until night, colored men and women were stopped on the streets and searched by the soldiers. Nothing more than pocket knives were found on them, but the soldiers took the knives from them. One colored man going three blocks was searched seven times. The indignities which colored women suffered at the hands of these soldiers would make the devil blush for shame. Low class white men took advantage of the helplessness of the colored men and began cursing and abusing them on the streets. One colored man, coming home with his family, was struck and humiliated by a white ruffian.
Boht white and colored citizens protested against the mistreatment of the colored people by the soldiers, and as soon as they could get in touch with Governor Roberts, petitioned him to take away the soldiers at once. They were ordered from the city early Monday.

Two recent decisions of the national war labor board are in harmony with the constitution which labor is striving to establish both here and abroad and will do much to smooth the way for the woman in industry by allaying the suspicion with which some of her shortsighted male collaborors have regarded her. Woman's industrial sphere has been so enormously enlarged within three or four years and she has so conspicuously proved her adaptability to manufacturing processes long regarded as beyond her strength or deftness, that it is well for all concerned to have her status fixed and recognized in an official way. Her indispensability during war was shown in a sensational manner. But her indispensability in peace times is now just as evident.
Oklahoma City, Ok—Howard E. Figg, who has been appointed by the Department of Justice to take charge of the fight against the high cost of living in this state, has announced the appointment of a fair price committee of seven members.

RARE EXCEPTIONS.
As a rule the leading officials of
our city, state or nation in speaking
before Negroes seldom assume that
we are intelligently acquainted with
the issues of the day and in their ef
fert at simplicity fail to drive their
speeches home to our minds and
hearts, Mayor Mendenhall of Kansas
City, Kansas, in his welcome to the
ministers of the Kansas and Nebraska
Conference proved to be a rare excep:
tion, And the address delivered by
overnor Henry J. Allen of Kansas to
an overflowing congregation at the
First A. M. B. Church during the edu-
cational meeting of the same confer:
ence was another. No overnor and
Mayor ever spoke more neatly, more
intelligently, more weighty or suffer.

eager to respond to the breath of every

in the fore, Kansas will become the

MAY SPLIT OVER M'JIMSEY.
Koeln-Foristet Faction in St. ouis
Fears for Its Patronage.
Opposition is developing in the St.
‘Louis Republican organization to E.
. B. MeJimsey, the Springfield edi
run for governor next year. The
Koein-Foristel faction in that city
fears for its share of the patronage
should MeJimsey be elected, and is
new whetting its knife,
‘The Springfield newspaper man is
backed now by the KielSchmoil fac-
tion. At this end of the state he prob-
ably will haye the support of the
Marks faction of this city, and of “old
guard” Republicans. The politicians
generally admit MeJimsey received a
tacit promise of support for the gov-
ernorship when he declined to enter
tha Republican primaries last year
against Senator Spencer. As Spen-
cer was backed by Kiel and Schmoll,
the latter's organization feels indebted
to MeJimsey for staying out of the
race
‘The chief objection of the Koeln.
Foristel faction to McJimsey is fear
that he will listen too much to the ad-
vice of Jesse Tollerton, Springfield
banker, who was fish and game war-
den and chief adviser of ex-Governor
Herbert 8. Hadley.
Henry 8. Caulfield, former member
of the St. Louis court of appeals, has
been suggested by the Koeln-Foristel
faction as a possible candidate for
governor,
As St, Louis Repuzlican leaders ex-
pect to roll up a Republican majority
at next year’s election of from thirty
to sixty thousand votes, that cfty is
expected to have the final word on
the choice of gubernatorial candid-
ates.

WEROISM WITHOUT FRILLS.
While we are talking about gallant
deeds on war's firing line and acts|
of heroism in general, let us not for-
get Edward P. Smith, mayor of Oma-
ha.
Mayor Smith is not of the rough-and-
veady, skin’om-alive type of man, He
has no cowboy record, such as gave
fame to former Mayor Jim Dahtman,
his predecessor. He does not affect
wild-west toggery or picturesque man-
ner of speech. He is educated, higli-
ly refined, an attorney by profession,
‘and while he has for many years been
prominent as a party leader on the
Democratic side, he never held politi-
eal office until he was pressed {tno
service as mayor, Nowhere along the
line, has Edward P. Smith ever pos-
ed as a hero, yet he is a hero, never.
theless, as was demonstrated Sunday
night.
His plea for order was answered
with a frenzied cry from the rioters:
“Tell the sheriff to give us that nig
ger!”
But the mayor refused to appeal te
the sheriff for the surrender of the
prisoner.
‘Then the noose was tossed about
the neck of the mayor and he was
dragged through the streets to a box
which was to be used as a place o!
‘execution—
Once again he was told that he
ioreia net 0 harmed if he would ask
the who stood guard over the
negro, to yield.

THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1919.
By Wm. H. Dawley, Jr.
At the Forum of the Garrison Field House Sunday, September 28th, 1919, Prof. J. Dallas Bowser and Attorney Chas. H. Calloway debated the League of Nations. In supporting his contention Prof. Bowser took the very broad and altruistic view of a sublime League of Nations following the lines of the Poet Tennyson. He reviewed the motives that actuated President Wilson rather the latter's attitude to the American Negro anouncing that Mr. Wilson voted with Japan for racial equality, Australia alone dissenting. Mr. Bowser affirmed that the Negro as a part of the American citizens should look for nothing peculiar to himself in the League of Nations other than what comes to his country.
Mr. Calloway confirmed his statements, lawyer like, save when he paid his compliments to the President declaring that some kind of League ought to be established within the confines of the United States to insure amicable relations between the white and colored people. Otherwise he spoke as an American citizen and not as a Negro. He quoted passages from the covenant decrying the six votes of the British Empire, the actual abrogation of the Monroe Doctrine, the sending of American soldiers to foreign climes to settle difficulties in which we had not the slightest interest as set forth in the famous Atricle Ten: "The members of the League undertake to respect and preserve as against external aggression the territorial integrity and existing political independence of all members of the League. In case of any such aggression, or in case of any threat or danger of such aggression, the council shall advise upon the means by which this obligation shall be fulfilled." This article explained Attorney Calloway in rebuttal refutes Prof. Bowers's claim that it is optional and only a moral obligation for America to send her troops abroad.
After the debate closed two-minute speeches were called for by Vice President Cole. Prof. Lee, Mr. J. A Wilson and Mr. Jas. Lee discussed the points. Not one of the debaters touched upon the Shantung incident. Miss Henley furnished instrumental music and Miss Pauline Vaughn vo

cal music, but the ladies took no part in the debate despite the fact that article twenty-three provides for supervision with regard to traffic in women and children and traffic in opium and other dangerous drugs.
A document so vital to the interest of human beings ought to elicit the careful study and expression by all varieties of American citizens, especially Negroes, Senator Reed, one American citizen, but representing the great commonwealth of Missouri in which are about two hundred thousand Negroes, distrusts the League because of seventeen colored nations and only fifteen white, realizing that according to the American method of voting the minority would get no square deal. He declares according to the Baltimore Afro-American "A partially civilized Negro from Liberia has representation equal to twenty-two hundred white Americans or twenty-two colored Americans and the colored Americans of this country are as much outraged as a matter of fact by this provision as are the whites."
Those who have not read the text of the treaty may be interested to know that Mr. King, Liberia's representative at the Peace Conference, is designated as Hon. along with President Wilson and the representatives of the British Empire, while Premier Clemenceau is plain Mr.

An effort is being made to help solve the race problem in the south amicably by aiding the colored people in buying up all or nearly all of the farming lands by whole counties and parishes wherever the whites will sell an dpermite them to enjoy the freedom they are legally entitled to. During the twenty years I spent in Natchez and Vidalia practicing and teaching law and civil government, northern capitalists deposited large sums of money in Brittons and Koontz bank at my disposal without security to buy lands for colored people, and I bought several thousands acres in Concordia Parish. La., for them for sale in small farms on long time.
I have traveled extensively in the south investigating the race problem and talked and corresponded with many leaders of both races on the solution of the problem and I think the method advocated in the book will meet with approval. The book contains a historic sketch of the colored race from the advent of Ham in Africa down to date, which shows the greatness of the race in the past and its wonderful progress in the U. S. in the last fifty years, to aid in solving the problem.
The book contains an excellent letter from the President of Maharry, on the success of the doctors of that school and fine write ups of presidents of our greatest colored colleges and letters from U. S. Senators and other prominent men and explains how to get money to buy plantations for sub division into farms, but as some assurance that the colored people in the south will cooperate, I have undertaken to gather 200 advance orders for the book, which is 12 Mo. of about 300 pages, cloth bound.
The price of the book is $1.50, but it will be furnished to you and your friends at $1.15, on advance orders.
Remit to the Burton Publishing Co. at 509 East 9th street or to W. H. Payne, Atty. at Law, 121 West 6th Street, Kansas City, Mo., by express money order or by post office order; either of us will send you a receipt and the book as soon as out, Post paid.
N. B. Books will be furnished at a big reduction to ministers for his congregation, who sends in an advance order.

Listen, Men!
Why not have beautiful straight hair the same as women? Our Hawaiian Hair Preparations are not an experiment. The results have been proven. The Hawaiian will not burn the hair from the scalp nor turn it red like most other so-called straighteners will do. But, in the hands of Heavy Soft Silky Hair. We also guarantee our Hawaiian Tonic to restore gray hair to its natural color after five applications or money refunded.

THE NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS OF AMERICA SUFFRAGE SESSION.
To the Colored Folk of America, Greetings:
The National Race Congress of America by its Executive Committee authorizes us to issue the call for the Fourth Annual Meeting of the said Congress to meet in Washington, D. C., October 7th to 11th, 1919, inclusive, at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street, between 12th and 12th streets, N. W. The Reverend Dr. M. W. D. Norman, pastor.

Churches and Auxillaries of Churches, Clubs, Associations, Fraternities and Organizations are also admitted according to the law now in force—$2 per delegate. This Congress is known as the Suffrage Session. Every interest of the Colored people hinges on the ballot. Every man in America should be interested in the franchise, there is no more important subject before us as a people. You are called to meet us. If there is no organization in your district to send a delegation, let a few public spirited men make such an organization that desires the growth of the Negro manhood, the purity of Negro womanhood and the opportunity of Negro childhood. Come, all ye leaders of the great Black race in

INTER-CHURCH WORLD MOVEMENT OF NORTH AMERICA.
To Assist in Making Survey of Negro Churches of Kansas.
Mr. F. M. Leaman, State Survey Director, of Manhattan, will call the colored ministers together in Topeka some time soon to form a church council for this state and to make a survey of the colored churches throughout the state. The council has decided to have the colored ministers and colored people make a study of all the churches, and are planning to finance the scheme.
The survey will be started this fall, and it is hoped that the same will be
This event will be the last and best of the season. There will be a Carnival Co. to assure that there will be no dull moments, but something going on every minute. The streets will be highly illuminated and decorated with a holiday effect. Booths, Games, Shows and Attractions of every kind will literally block the streets.
On the inside of Wright's Dancing Academy the Industrial Fair will be held. Contestants for Prizes are enrolling rapidly. These prizes are offered for Art, Culinary and various exhibits. If you can do anything exceptionally well why not put your skill to a test and bring home the bacon? Drill Contests for $100 in Prizes. Wayt local lodge will win? They are all entered. Dancing! Dancing around, all around all the time.

completed by the early spring or summer of next year. Principal Bridgeforth, of the Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute, is behind the move, and the survey promises to help in a most appreciable manner.
Transmigration of Souls.
A fresh young man was pressing an old gentleman, who evidently felt bored, to give him an illustration of the transmigration of souls, showing how a person's identity might be maintained. At last the old gentleman replied: "Supposing you should die, your soul might appear in a canary bird; when the canary bird died it might appear in a lion or a tiger; again, it might appear in a jackass—and I might stroke its ears and say, 'My dear fellow, you have not changed a bit'-"Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.
Senile Marriages.
Some bygone lawmakers would have been in sympathy with the Brooklyn millionaire who maintains that at 80 he was too old to be legally married. In Rome, under the Emperor Augustus, a law was passed for forbidding men to marry when they were over 60, and women when they were over 50. Peter the Great, also disapproved of senile marriage, and enacted that no marriage are contract should hold good if either of the contracting parties was over 80 at the time it was entered upon.
The love of the maypole still lingers in the affections of the children of England, and in villages many of the old May dances have been revived, and the gray playgrounds of the cities' schools oftimes glow with unwonted brightness on May morning, as the present-day girls with spring frocks and beribboned maypoles still sing the songs and dance the steps which made merry the day through the long centuries.
First Daily Paper.
"March 11th was the anniversary of the birth of the first daily paper in England, to wit, the Daily Courant," says the London Morning Post. "It was issued in the year 1702, by E. Mallet, against the Ditch in Fleet Street,' and it was cynically said of the worthy pioneer that he was the earliest journalist to show any jealousy for an accurate statement of fact.
Advice From One Who Knew.
The puppy had been punished and was sulking in a corner. To him came the small daughter of the house, to administer, not comfort, but advice. "You may just as well be good first as last. Buddy," she admonished. "Everybody that belongs to mother has got to mind. I've been through it all—and I know."
Whole Family Benefited
By Wonderful Remedy
There are many little things to annoy us, under present conditions of life. The hurry, hard work, noise and strain all tell on us and tend to provoke nervousness and irritability. We are frequently so worn out we can neither eat, sleep nor work with any comfort. We are out of line with ourselves and others as well.
A good thing to do under such circumstances is to take something like
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills
to relieve the strain on the nerves.
J. M. B. Hartsfield, 82 Plum St.
Atlanta Ga., writes:
"I have on several occasions been
vastly relieved by the use of your medi-
ines, especially the Anti-Pain Pills,
the use of myself, husband and two
sons. Nothing in the world equals them
as a headache remedy. Often I am
enabled by the use of one or two of
the Pills to continue my housework
while the service would be bad. My
husband joins me in my praise of the
Anti-Pain Pills and Nervine."
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills
are relieled upon to relieve pain,
nervousness and irritability in thousands
of households. Of proven
merit after twenty years' use, you
can have no reason for being longer
without them.
