A SHOCKING CRIME.
Kansas City Hogrified at the Wanton and Unprovoked Murder of Rev. W. A. Campbell, Supervisor of American Woodmen.
ROBBERY APPARENTLY THE
MOTIVE.
All Kansas City was stunned last Wednesday night when the news spread rapidly over the city that at about $30 Rev. W. A. Campbell pastor of Mt. Tabor A. M. E. Church, 33rd and Hardesty, and Supervisor of the Kansas City District for the American Woodmen, was stopped by a highwayman and without a moment's warning shot down with a

large calibre revolver which pierced the intestines, necessitating an operation from which the doctors said there was no hope for recovery, and fully conscious with an impressive prayer upon his lips, he passed away Thursday night at 7:30 in the presence of that God that he had served so acceptably during his ministerial career. Mr. Campbell was a man of commanding appearance, standing about six feet two, vigorous and healthy and a splendid worker for his organization which he had built up until it has a membership of 800 here in the city. Only the Sunday before he had delivered a glorious sermon at the Quarterly meeting services at St. John's Church and had received many compliments on its excellence.
Rev. Campbell was engaged in the building of a new Church for his congregation and had expressed great hopes for the future, but fate had ordained that it was not to be. His aged father came from Georgetown, Miss., to take the body back to the old home for burial and assisted by the Ministerial Alliance and the Woodmen and his many friends and congregation, the body left last Thursday for its final resting place
No clue to the murderer has been obtained as yet but many believe that time will unravel the mystery and that this wanton murderer will be brought to justice. The territory around 12th street is becoming both unsavory and dangerous and the best citizens of the race for the safety of themselves and their families must enlist the services of the city and state authorities and proceed to clean up the crooked element that infest various sections of our city. The Sun extends its deepest sympathy to the family of Rev. Campbell.
MID-WEST LODGE OF ELKS SET
A PRECEDENT.
Mid-West lodge of Elks have set a precedent as far as fraternal organizations of Kansas City are concerned. On Thanksgiving day the members of this organization sent a committee from their lodge to the Orphans Home on Michigan, where they found thirty-five happy little folks whom they bundled in comfortable wraps and set out for the Second Christian church where a Thanksgiving dinner was served to them at the expense of this lodge. At Allen Chapel another committee from this lodge accompanied by several members of the Daughters Temple furnished dinner to about twenty-five old folks. This organization of men feel that there is a great deal of this kind of work in Kansas City to be carried on and they will always be found willing to do their share.

and kind will develop the opposite traits in the experiences of the next twenty years.
Don't get the impression that your present self is transitory. There is a terrible permanence about it. What you are now, is a suggestion of what you will probably be, when your age is doubled, unless you make a steadfast and determined effort to weed out what is unworthy, and cultivate what is best in yourself.
November days are said to be the saddest and most melancholy of the year to many people, especially those who never discern beauty or sunshine in anything. November is to us who appreciate manifold blessings of a kind, wise and all-seeing Providence the richest month of the year especially was it true of the month just passed and gone. In spite of the unrest and disturbed conditions in the industrial world, we have abundant blessings to be grateful for. The production of one of the Nation's crops, the continued prosperity throughout the country, with work for everybody is a thing to be thankful for. "Let us be thankful for the prayers, whose gracious answers were long, long delayed, that they might fall upon us unaware and bless us as in greater need we prayed."
Let us not be unmindful of the many rich blessings that are ours; life, health, strength, friends, ability to do plenty; let us be grateful; let us count our many blessings and pass them on to the other fellow.

LEISURE HOUR REFLECTIONS
FROM A QUIET CORNER.
By Dennis S. Thompson
Every pupil in school gets, as a rule, a monthly report card, on which his standing is set down. Not only is he given a standing in his various studies, but in deportment. It would be a decided advantage to many of us who are out of school if we had a chance to see ourselves as we appear. If we knew that in the estimation of some close acquaintances our manners were ranked sixty to seventy-five instead of one hundred, that our dispositions were rated at about fifty and so on, it would cause us to take serious thought. The student who knows that he must improve twenty-five or fifty per cent to stand where he should, has an advantage over some of us who are going on the supposition that we are marked one hundred in all good qualities. One of the first essentials to improvement is to know where we really stand. From this fact we may infer that as long as we remain astride the fence or attempt to ride two horses, that we cannot get very far in the world. It is always a good thing to know ourselves, who we are, where we stand and then—where we are going.
One must look downwards as well as upwards in human life. Though many have passed you in the race, there are many you have left behind. Every noble character, every admirable personality, every winsome and lovely self whom God permits us to see and know is a revelation of God to us and is a call to us to journey Godward. Unless we saw and knew those to whom we must look up with reverence and trustful affection, we could have no true understanding of a personality above our own, no forceful impelling toward a standard higher than our personal conceptions. Hence it is that a worthy friend is a gift from God.
To be the best worker, one must know how to play. Sometimes we meet people to whom all recreation looks like waste time and they toil on in the same monotonous, care-relied round and wonder why their persistent effort does not accomplish more. If they possessed the art of forgetting their work, of throwing themselves into some remote interest, they would go back to their toil with zest revived, and would accomplish vastly more in a year's time than they do by the policy of never stopping.
Recreation should be entered into heartily, not as if you felt yourself above it, and knew you were indulging in a weakness. Read your book with the same attention with which you study your algebra lesson. Put your heart and soul into whatever amusement you indulge in with the same earnestness you put into work at the office. To belittle your recreation means that it will do little for you.
The first twenty years of our lives are employed chiefly in getting a start. After that we do not change very much except to become more thrifty. The habits of industry orideness are fixed before you reach your majority. If you do not love work by that time, in all probability you never will. Circumstances may force you to work, but it will always be drudgery. The boy or girl who has not learned to care for books and study and thinking, by the time they finish high school, will always be an intellectual laggard. Even in the matter of becoming a Christian, habit rules. The vast majority of professed Christians took the step before they were twenty.
It is true that moral intellectual unheavals sometimes occur in human nature, just as they do in the world about us. Men and women who have reached maturity or even middle life may undergo an experience so transforming that their tastes and activities are completely changed. Drunkards have become reformers; ignorant laborers, leaders of thought, bad men have done their best to counteract years of wickedness by unrightness and helpfulness. But this does not happen very often and it is not safe to depend on it. As a rule, the young woman of twenty, if ill-natured, untruthful or complaining, will show at forty the same faults intensified to an intolerable degree. And there is very little likelihood that a girl of that age who is sweet, sincere,

strong,
Down to the weaker ones about,
Send a stream of kindness gushing out?
Why not give cheer, life is not long,
Give to the weak a cheering song,
Give to the lame a friendly hand,
And help them again on their feet to stand?
Why not give love, life is not long,
To all sad hearts and lives gone wrong?
Why not give love as the Master gave
When He came upon earth a world to save?
For do you not think it may be
The homes we build for eternity,
Are built of the kindness cheer and love
Our lives send on to the realms above?
While the earth-house in our foolish pride,
And our wealth at last to be cast aside,
It keeps us from feeling our brother's care,
May sink our souls in a dark despair?

A BEAUTIFUL SHOP.
Mr. H. K. Love and O. Blanchard who conduct the Dew Drop Barber Shop at 1715 East Eighteenth street, have made some splendid improvements during the past month, having purchased a beautiful suite of furniture and equipment, formerly owned by the Paseo Y, which they have had installed at their place of business, making it decidedly the most attractive tonsorial parlor in the two Kansas Citys. In addition they have added a well equipped billiard room where they have four elegant tables for pocket billiards for the enjoyment of their patrons. Mr. Love is a most aggressive young business man and has unquestionably made good in this crowded profession.

Chicago, Dec. 2. — Hon. George Washington Ellis, aged 44, 3662 Veron avenue, died last week after a protracted illness. A sister, Mrs. Mamie E. Clark, was at his bedside. Mr. Ellis was one of the most scholarly men of the Race, and for eight years was secretary to the legation, Liberia. He has written and published many valuable books and, until his illness was assistant corporation counsel for the city of Chicago. Mrs. Ellis died in 1916. The funeral address was made by Rev. A. J. Carey, D.D.
The musical Tea and dance that was to have been given by the Graeco Art Club has been postponed because of the fuel shortage. When the fuel crisis is ended, a new date will be fixed.
Rev. L. W. Harris, the brilliant and talented pastor of the Baptist Church at Carrollton, Mo., and also moderator of Mt. Zion Association, has accepted a call to the Baptist Church at Fulton, Mo. He preached his farewell sermon at Carrollton last Sunday. Dr. Harris is one of the brightest young men in the ministry and will doubtless give complete satisfaction in his new charge.

The death of Mr. W. A. Campbell was a shock beyond expression. His relation to me in business and friend- ship was like that of Damon and Pythias. He was a link in the great Woodmen chain; the local camp will miss him in our meeting and the Neighbors as a whole will miss him throughout the jurisdiction. The Supreme Camp will miss him because
there were but few clerks in my estimation throughout the jurisdiction that equalled him. The Supreme Camp has authorized me to succeed him as Supervisor of this Camp and I only hope that I will be able to give the same satisfaction both to the Local and Supreme Camps and the Community in general and ask the cooperation of all the Neighbors, friends and citizens of Greater Kansas City.

REV. ISAACS SCORES.
The announced policy of Dr. John B. Isaacs the new pastor of Allen Chapel to establish a budget system which shall take care of all the financial obligations of Allen Chapel including: dollar money, assessments, pastor's salary, trustees' expenses, janitor's service and all the various bills and obligations of the Church, meets the hearty approval of the thinking members of Allen Chapel and should prove an instantaneous success. One of the things that has disgusted hundreds of members and worshippers at Allen has been the crowding and grouping around the altar (largely for show) to pay class dues on Sunday morning, when by a little energy, these class dues could be collected during the week, or better still they could have been placed in the envelope along with the other contribution and all that nonsical, vainlorious and foolish parading and destruction' of the solemnity of the service could have been avoided. Happily, under the new system promulgated by the aggressive pastor, this will all be a thing of the past and now when one leaves Allen at the close of the service, he will have no other impression upon his mind and heart than the ringing words of Gospel truth as expounded by our intelligent and progressive pastor. The Sun heartily joins Dr. Isaacs in this truly timely and sensible reform.

WASHINGTON, D. C.
By William H. Dawley, Jr
A company of Colored people, under the guidance of John W. Lewis, President Wm. D. Dixon, Lawrence E. Murray, C. A. Lee, Richard Johnson, L. H. Fisher and Wm. H. Robinson, by subscription have erected a hotel, the Thitelaw, at 13th and Tea streets, for the exclusive accommodation of Colored people. It was opened for inspection Monday, November 24, 1919. The building, according to the Evening Star, is of the Italian Renaissance type; the street facade is of gray tapestry with Indiana limestone adornments. The hotel is furnished throughout with up-to-date equipment. On the second floor is a private parlor and dining room for special functions, while the main dining room is on the first floor and designed to seat 200 guests. The color scheme is old iron and gold. The lounge, smoking room, manicure parlor and ladies' rest room are situated on the ground floor, as is the grotto which enters from the Tea street side.
This seems only the beginning of large building by Colored people. The Masons are contemplating a colossal temple designed by a real Masonic architect, so that it will be the last word in Masonic structure. A few days ago the several O. E. S. chapters of the district gave a pageant that netted over $6,000, which is the nest egg of the women's contribution to this majestic and all embracing temple.
Elder Lewis C. Sheafe, who was the guest of Allen Chapel two years ago, is pastor of the People's Seventh Day Adventist Church at 10th and Vine Streets, an imposing edifice. He is giving a series of lectures on topics of the day Sunday evenings. It was the good fortune of your correspondent to hear the one on "Causes of Uprest."
Using James v:1-6 as a basis, he developed these fine causes: Widespread intelligence; 2d, great contrast between the poor and the rich; 3d, the inequality of justice; 4th, reflex of the war; 5th, the erroneous doctrine taught by labor that it alone produces wealth. Those who heard Dr. Burris Jenkins at Allen Chapel last October on the "New Era" will recall that he emphasized two of the above points:

the reflex of the war and the inequality of justice. It is interesting to note that these two eminent divines, though of different race, handled those topics, both used in almost exactly the same way notwithstanding they were more than a thousand miles apart and unacquainted with each other.
Elder Sheafe believes that this unrest is too large a problem for statesmen; that it can only be solved by men imbibing the true spirit of Him who gave the Golden Rule.
His Church, though not in the conference, has paid all of their $10,000 debt except $700.00, which they expect to wipe out before the end of the year. The membership hardly exceeds $100.00.

WHAT OF 1920?
"To the Sleeping Car Porters Who Are Standing at the Door of Uncertainty."
Why are you waiting beyond the Portals of the door, when your friends and fellow-workers with hands extended to welcome you to the fold of Brotherhood.
Your hour of midnight may be fast approaching: tomorrow 1920 may be too late, on and after January 1st, our initiation fee will be increased, as we hope to make our Organization 100% before that date.
Are you interested in your working condition, or your fellow-workers affairs, and is it equal importance that you help carry on the struggle for complete disenthrallment of the barriers which seek to impede the progress of organized labor.
We seek your co-operation because we need it, as we cannot have a Hundred Per Cent Organization without your membership, our same method of procedure will protect your employer, yourself, and your home.
December 1st, the Executive Council of the Brotherhood Sleeping Car Porters Protective Union will appear before the U. S. Labor and Wage Commission, Washington, D. C., to plead for a satisfactory wage scale, reasonable hours of rest and better working conditions for the Sleeping Car Porter.
It is your duty to support us in this great cause for human rights. The Brotherhood Sleeping Car Porters Protective Union is your logical representative, Incorporated under Charter for the Sleeping Car Porters, and it is the only legalized body that has authority vested in them to represent you.
Can you in fairness to them accept the efforts of their labor without contributing to their support. We are making many sacrifices to help each other, each craft, of the service is working faithfully to this end, and if we are to succeed we must have your support, stop and consider; ask yourself this question.
"Am I Clogging the Wheels With Inactivity."
Not long ago we were trying to find a way to work a solution whereby we could submit matters regarding our working conditions in a concrete form through the proper channels for its satisfactory re-adjustment. Now, that solution is here and whether or not you will take advantage of it remains with you, and if we are to act we must Act Now, as 1920 may be TOO LATE.
Take an active part in each progressive movement and when the work is satisfactorily accomplished, you can say this is the results of our work and you will not be camouflaging.
Respectfully.

AGAIN WE WIN.
As we go to press, the intelligence comes that a splendid promising young man of the race in the person of Mr. W. A. Greene has been appointed to a position of trust and honor in one of the largest banks in the country, the Fidelity National. Such a position has not been held by us in this section of the country. He will have charge of the records and fillings. To say we are pleased is only a partial expression. Mr. Greene is one of our own boys having shown himself alert, bright, ready and willing to assist in every movement for the betterment of his people. He is closely allied and widely known in fraternal circles of Missouri. He has held the position of judge in the municipal election. He has acquired some worth while real estate, of which his hand, some two story home at 1311 Woodland Ave., is a part.

"Let not your heart be troubled" was the text of Rev. Isaacs last Sunday morning and his inspiring and hope dispensing sermon was an unanswerable appeal to trust in the author of the above text who never falls to fulfill his promise...Rev. Isaacs' Sunday school class carried off the banner and despite the cold, had a record attendance. Lovers of the afternoon Sunday school will have their desire realized, for on or before 3:00 o'clock there will be a session in addition to the 9:30 A. M. session...The ban on weekly service of course prevented class, but the trustees and stewards assembled Tuesday night at the parsonage and arranged a budget of about $12,000 covering all the finances of the church for the year so that if 800 members will pay 35 cents in their envelopes per Sunday, 10 cents of which is class dues, there'll be no other and all the obligations including dollar money will be met. If these 800 members do this, no one will be called upon to contribute more than $15.00 during the year...The Sunday School budget is slightly under $200.00. Under this plan the church will be in a position to do her duty to the Community and help in real social uplift...Last Saturday Rev. Isaacs attended the session of the Federated Negro Charities and has succeeded Rev Thomas on the Children's Home Board. Thus, he is throwing himself with energy into worthwhile community interests. As the officials were about to leave the parsonage Mrs Isaacs attracted their attention to the dining room where a dainty but substantial spread was laid and in the words of Dunbar, most "scrumptiously" enjoyed. It is declared that Mrs Isaac is in the front rank of those who have presided as hostess in the parsonage of historic Allen.

BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH,
24th and Flora.
By Mattie B. Evans.
Our first quarterly meeting will be Sunday morning. Rev. W. H. Prince, the presiding elder, will preach the sacramental sermon. We are expecting a great time in Bethel. We hope to see all the members and friends of the church out at this meeting. Our services were with God all day Sunday. We are glad to have our pastor home again after being called away on a sad mission. Rev. J. E. Harris, who was left in charge of the church, preached. Text; Luke 2:14, Glory Be to God in the Highest, Peace on Earth, Good Will to All Men. A wonderful sermon this was. We are all very glad to have such gospel preachers like him with us. We welcome you. Rev. Harris, to worship with us. The Sunday School was largely attended. Brother R. Grear, with his teachers, are at their post of duty. We are asking the members and friends of Bethel to send their children to the Sunday School that these efficient teachers may teach them of Jesus, who said, "Let the little ones come unto me." Mr. Irving Smith, the president, is much interested in our league and is doing great work. At 1 o'clock Rev. Dawson eulogized over Harold Robinson. Rev. Dawson preached at the evening service; subject, "Freedom." This was indeed a powerful sermon. One came for prayer. Come out and help us and hear this gospel choir and if you are cold and indifferent they will sing the spirit of God in your soul. You are welcome to Bethel. We are glad Brother Thomas Eaton and Sister Eddie Wells are improving. Sister Nelle Ross buried her father. Mr. John Smith, from her home, 2409 Highland avenue, Monday afternoon. Mr. George Jakes of Marshall spent Thanksgiving with his sister, Mrs. Lulu Lewis.

Sister Ella Christian and her co-workers, are doing all in their power to make our school felt throughout the community. We are indeed proud of the way our grown-ups are attending and of the interest shown in the study lesson...At eleven o'clock the morning services were led by Deacon Neal. We listened to two powerful sermons by our pastor morning and evening. Hear Rev J. H. Brooks and you will agree that he is a Gospel minister...At 6:30 we had B. Y. P. U. services. We are grateful to Rev. G. W. Brown for his instructions on the lesson. The B. Y. P. U. is rendering a valuable aid to the church. Our service proper began at 8:00 o'clock with an old fashioned Prayer Meeting lead by Sisters Christian and Searls. Through this earnest Prayer Meeting our hearts were prepared for the Gospi pel sermon prepared by our pastor and our hearts leaped for joy. Such sermons make us more seasal in our work for the Master. By the power of God and under the leadership of our efficient pastor we expect to build a structure to the glory and honor of God....We will certainly miss Rev Harris, who has been visiting with us but expects to depart to his home soon. His prayers and words of encouragement have meant much to us....The Mission Circle met with Sister Ella Christian on Monday evening. Our circle is to be highly recommended for the Thanksgiving dinner which was a great success....Harmony Club and the Glee Club are working hard and having success in each of their undertakings. Visit us next Sunday in our services. You are always welcome.

All persons taking part will meet at the parsonage Monday evening.....Happy is the man that findeth wisdom and the man that getteth understanding."
Whereas, it has been our misfortune to lose from our chain of Woodcraft, our most esteemed neighbor and Supervisor, Rev. W. A. Campbell. Our hearts are all bowed down in sorrow. Another link of Woodcraft has been broken. We loved neighbor Campbell, we esteemed him as a God sent minister, we esteemed him as our great leader in Woodcraft, we miss his fraternal remarks.
His footsteps and voice are hushed, his sunny smiles especially when he is talking of Woodcraft, in the hall on in the streets we shall never see again. Little did we thing on last Sunday when he preached that most wonderful sermon at St. John A. M. E. Church that death was so near and before another Sunday his great voice was hushed to be heard no more. But while our hearts are sad and our eyes are dim with tears in sympathy for the loved ones he left to mourn for him, we know in that Resurrection morning we shall see him again. When the mist has rolled in splendor, in the beauty of the hills and the sunshine falls in gladness on the river and rill we recall our fathers promise, we shall know our Supervisor better when the mists have rolled away; yes, we shall know him, never more to parton the dawning of that morning on that bright and happy day, we shall know our neighbor Campbell when the mist has rolled away.

MRS. LOUISE STEWART ENTERTAINS HER CHOIR.
A very beautiful party was that given Monday night, December 1st, by Mrs. Louise Stewart, organist of Ebenezer A. M. E. Church, complimentary to the members of the Choir. All met at the parsonage at 8:00 o'clock and three seven passenger cars conveyed the jolly crowd accompanied by Rev. and Mrs. W. T. Osborne to the beautiful residence of Mrs. Stewart, 2023 N. 6th street, Kansas City, Kansas. We were very cordially welcomed by the hostess and her two charming sisters who seemed to vie with each other in making our stay pleasant. Needless to say the entire evening was delightfully spent when a Ouija Board furnished plenty of amusement for us all. Other games were played and the male quartette also entertained us while Mrs. Ada Brown's piano selections and singing were very much enjoyed. Of course the luncheon was a very pleasant realization of previous anticipation. It, too, was excellent. We very regretfully said adieu when the honk, honk of the autos announced the hour of eleven. We ALL had a GOOD time and were very delightfully entertained. Long may our hostess be with us in our choir work and long may our pleasant relations continue.

Eight years ago God called you,
Just why no one can tell,
But we have the consolation
That He doeth all things well.
If love and care could death prevent
Our days would not so soon be spent,
Life was desired, but God did see
Eternal light was best for thee.

Following the orders of the Fuel Administration, it has become necessary for us to make reductions and changes in our service.
So far we have not found it necessary to make any important change or to reduce our Kansas service except to cut off heat from the cars. The reductions have all been in Missouri.
There is no heat on the cars for the reason that each unit of heat on each car requires 50 pounds of coal and the Fuel Administration deems this saving necessary.
The fuel situation is extremely serious. It has been five weeks since the miners went on their strike and refused to work. We were as well prepared to meet the crisis as it was possible to be, having 45,000 tons of coal in storage. We can continue the present service with possibly slight reductions during the non-rush hours, until the first of the New Year.
However this Company, if occasion requires, has offered to stop street car service and use our coal to prevent the people of this community from freezing.
We urge upon all patrons to co-operate with us to the greatest possible extent in conserving fuel. In this manner alone can the crisis be met.

CARRY ON!
We are going to carry on our fight for equal justice and opportunity, and we will be guided only by the eternal principles of life. We know what they are, and we know that we know what they are, and we know that all the other folks know that we know what they are, and we propose to carry on, carry on! We will not be sidetracked, "banfoozed" or frightened.
Today we are doing the seemingly impossible things. We are going forward in every avenue of American progress, economic, political and social—and fighting the demon Prejudice every inch of the way. We are what we are, because we have been weighed in the balance and not found wanting. If we have made progress, and we have, it has been by the stern edicts of merit and necessity—there is no sentiment in the transactions. All these things, wherever we are, in whatever line of endeavor, we must realize in the concrete, and govern ourselves accordingly.
We must take heart and know that we are farther along in life's pathway than yesterday, and we must carry on, carry on without ceasing.
THE SMARTER SET.
No Colored organization has created such enthusiasm during the past few seasons as has "The Smarter Set," better known as "The Smart Set," and headed by the well known comedians, Salem Tutt Whitley and J. Homer Tutt, and which will be the attraction at the Auditorium the week of the 21st.
"The Smarter Set" will offer a new and original musical comedy entitled "The Children of the Sun," in two acts and ten scenes, and is adapted from the historical book of the same title by Geo. Wells Parker, which contains sufficient amount of patriotism injected into action of the play to arouse sentimental enthusiasm.
The story tells of the successful tour of archaeological research by Deab Kelly Miller of the Howard University at Washington, D. C., where he has discovered valuable records, which will establish the antiquity of the Negro Race.
The musical program is one out of the ordinary, and includes the following specially written numbers, "Dear Old Dixie Home," "Come and Dance With Me," "Travelin' We're Travelin'," "Mr. Jazz and Mrs. Blue," "Land of Love," "Women, They All Go for Mine," "Something About You I Like," "Soon We'll Be Sailing," "Cherry Blossoms," "Harem Jazz," "What's the Use" and "Hail, the Children of the Sun."
SOCIAL UNREST-CAUSE AND EFFECT.
(By Associated Negro Press.)
It is quite unfair for the students of economic progress to saddle all the cause of "social unrest" among the people of our group on the distribution of propaganda and sedition. As a matter of cold fact, the entire world is topsy-turvy in the matter of social conditions. There has been a universal awakening to the fact the certain so-called "superior" groups have been holding the iron heel of oppression on the heads, feet and hands of many so-called "inferior" groups, and it is now generally realized that "superiority" and "inferiority" are merely matters of opportunity and environment.
Therefore, the attorney general of the United States in making a report on radicalism and sedition, as reflected by our publications has seemed to view the subject entirely from the viewpoint of one who is willing to admit himself "superior" and the 15,000,000 of our group must necessarily be "inferior," with limited and well defined aspirations
There come to the executive offices of the Associated Negro Press, practically all of the publications of the Race. Their editorials, news stories and headlines are carefully scrutinized. It can be truthfully stated that, with but one or two exceptions, while the majority of the publications are now "crying from the house-tops" the things that they are crying against, are the things we fought against on the bloody battlefields of France; the things that the publications are demanding are simply the rights and privileges of American citizens. Are we entitle dto them? If not, why not?
The present unfortunate state of bitterness of so many people against so many of the whites is due to the fact that so many of the whites will not be fair and square in dealing with us. However, we must always be willing to co-operate with those who are willing to be fair, and by the same token, the white people must realize, regardless of the past, we are willing to meet them half way, we are not such terrible terrors, ask the French people; they know.

THEY SAY
—That a painless dentist is one who suffers no pain himself.
—That social unrest is another name for pure cussed laziness. Amen, brother, Amen!
—That some people are only interested in labor to the extent of not doing any of it.
—That a woman wears silk hose always likes to cross the street where it is muddiest. Why?
—That a great many people are only happy when they're stirring up trouble among their friends.
—That listening to an argument is like stretching a piece of rubber—it expands until it bursts.
—That some people are not satisfied with roses—they want roses without thorns. Too much, brother, too much!
—That some men are honest because of strength of character, but others because they have never been tempted.
—That the human skunk who will bring news that seeks to foment trouble, can always be trusted to carry that same kind of news.
—That last Christmas we had no street cars nor lights; it looks like this Christmas, we'll have no coal. Life is sure one d—— thing after another. Ain't it, Fritz?
—That one brother stayed in bed so long on account of having no fuel that when he finally did decide to get up, he couldn't get his feet to the floor. Too bad, wasn't it?

Buying a home is an ambition so easily realized now-a-days that the place which shelters every man should be his own. The thoughtful Negro is not satisfied with being able to rent modern houses, but to own them outright by purchase. The fact is, the records show a larger number of purchases among Negroes this year than any year in the history of Kansas City. If you (dear reader) have never owned a home this is YOUR OPPORTUNITY.

We feel that any who have visited or frequented our center, or even the casual passerby will verify the fact that our present quarters has become a very definite constructive agency, greatly in contrast to that of previous years.
The center is furnishing a rallying point for the following organizations and clubs: The Wayne Minor Post of American Legion; Pioneer Community Service Club; the Poro Club; Old Settlers Association; Federation of Women's Clubs; National Association for the Advancement of Colored people. W. C. T. Unions and several others have been listed.

At the time that W. C. C. S. was to close we were visited by representatives from National Headquarters and they were sufficiently impress with the work that was being done to recommend that our work be continued to February 1st, during which time we are expected to devise ways and means whereby Community Service work may be permanently maintained by the community locally. Provision is being made by Headquarters for general running expense, special activities and salaries, but not for furnishings and renovating. Because of the second floor of our building being so entirely uninhabitable we were compelled to go to quite an expense for painting, plumbing and for lighting and heating fixtures. Therefore we seek the heartiest support of the community with any project which may be undertaken for the purpose of defraying the above-mentioned indebtedness.
We cordially invite all clubs and organizations and in fact the entire community to make The Center their home or headquarters.

What Community Service Means: A positive force in reconstruction. It is the best kind of Americanization. Community Service begins where War Camp Community Service left off. What War Camp Community Service did for our fighting men in war. Community Service does for all of us in peace. Community Service is organized friendship, localized and made practical. The particular object for which the corporation is formed is the development in all American communities, through public and private agencies and by every appropriate means, of better moral and industrial conditions, health and welfare, play and recreation higher and more adequate community and neighborhood expression, and better social life.
Community Service is the answer to a demand. The need for Community Service existed long before the war. The war aggravated this need and emphasized it. The needs of our fighting forces demanded immediate organized action. War Camp Community Service was the answer. Through it all the communities around the cantons organized America's hospitality for our fighting men. Community Service provides the opportunity in the community for the members of the community to meet together as neighbors—as folks representing no one but themselves and exchange ideas and put into effect ideas for community betterment. It makes the "community" a fact in stead of a name.
Community Service (incorporated)
operates nationally, applies itself locally and thinks in terms of leisure time. Men are the products of their leisure time as much as they are of the time spent at business or in the factory. Our leisure time makes us or breaks us. Community Service aims to make the leisure time of all of us a constructive benefit to our selves, to our particular community and America as a whole. leisure time makes it possible. It also makes other or things possible that we don't like Leisure time may become a curse. Community Service makes it a blessing.
Without being into-anything Community Service leaves no idle hands no lookers-on in viciv affairs. It gets us all busy in the business of good citizenship and we all have a share in the dividends.
Community Service is social insurance on a national scale applied locally. The world must be made safe for all of us. It is America's job to make America safe. "Some one thing in some one place for each" will do it. Community Service is the opportunity. It is non-partisan, non sectarian.
Community Service is Organized Common Sense.
"This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in."
Theodore Roosevelt. Three months of War Camp Community Service in Kansas City among the colored people has done much for the community and especially for the service and ex-service men in the way of hospitality, securing of employment, assisting in the way of adjusting government insurance; back pay; allotments and any other problems that confront men recently discharged from service and helping them to become more suitably assimilated into our community life. We are especially proud of any service we may have rendered in the organization of the Wayne Minor Post

J. L, Shepherd, Secretary.
December 2. 1919.
J, J. Mattjoy, 1510 E, 18th St,
Kansas City, Mo.
‘Dear Mattjoy:
Just this day we have received no-
tification from Sedalia that a ban on
public meetings has been placed there,
and that we should postpone our, oF
rather the Democratic Ngroes propos:
ed meeting for December 17th.
We know that this news will be as
disappointing to you folks as it is to
us, But, tell the loyal Democrats cf
your race that tis postponement will
not be a great while, and that state
organization to be held at Sedalia will
mean more to them than any other
even that has ever occurred in theit
political history.
We are telling the world that the
Democratic Negroes of Missouri are
chanting.
Shades of Jefferson and Washingtor
symbols of Democracy—
Foes of autocracy—
Go on, and we will follow thee
to the last gasp—
With truth and loyalty,
Very tmily yours,
Democratic State Committe
J. L. Shepherd, Frank Armstrong

letter to Dr. Howard Smith,
