By J. DALLAS BOWSER
Dear friends, we have called you a
To welcome you all in our hearties
With hand and with heart we bid
And a hope that we'll please you
You see her a remnant, enfeebled.
Whose years are but few 'til they

we have called you together all in our heartiest way; with heart we bid you go it we'll please you by who memant, enfeebled by age but few 'til they pass
Dear friends, we have called you together, today,
To welcome you all in our heartiest way;
With hand and with heart we bid you good cheer,
And a hope that we'll please you by what we do here
You see her a remnant, enfeebled by age,
Whose years are but few 'til they pass from life's stage,
To that country unknown, save their firm faith in God.
They'll arise when He calls them from under the sod.
These white-haired old timers in days long since passed
Bore heavy the burden in the heart and the blast;
They laid the foundations of church, school and home,
On which this great city so wondrous has grown.
Those were humble beginnings—their tasks, they were new;
No experience to guide them, their tools were but few;
The echoes of war were still heard in the land,
Thus new life and new work for the freedman began.
No vote had he yet, five years had pased on
Since war guns were silenced 'til his franchise had come;
Well do I remember that bright April day
Some fifty years since when we wended our way
To the booth on the Square, where the City Hall stands,
And cast our first ballot—best gift to a man.
How we stood by a rock pile, with eyes bulging wide,
Lest some low "nigger hater" would force us aside;
Our fears were quite groundless, no one interposed
A challenge to cast our first vote as we chose.
No home and no church, no books and no school,
No rich forty acres, not even a mule;
We started bare-handed, purse empty, and all
We pushed bravely on to respond to the call
Of stern duty that bade every one in the road
Shoulder his knapsack and carry his load.
Our achievements were meager, our patterns were crude,
Our culture unpolished, our manners were rude;
Yet we strove for improvement, of mind, heart and soul,
How well we succeeded, we are her to unfold.
Like rough, unhewn ashler, whose natural state
Needs the square, gauge and chisel smooth stones to create,
So we on the trestle board marked out our plans
For the work our new station in life should demand.
All hall these grandmothers who toiled at the tub,
That the women today may spend hours at their club!
All hall to these grandsires, who toiled night and day,
That our boys might have leisure for study and play!
But the first greetings over, you glance 'round the hall,
Your hearts call the roll, but they answer not all;
Through the turf green above them, the dead cannot hear;
Name by name, in the silence falls, sad as a tear!
They were summoned too soon in their morning and noon,
Ere their tasks were completed, they left us alone.
But a shaft we will raise to their memories blest
That shall reach to the skies, where we know they're at rest.
They are absent, yet with us, nor shall they depart,
As long as we cherish their deeds in our heart;
A wreath of forget-me-nots place on their biers.
Which time shall not wither, kept green with our tears.
Of the worthy deserving of mention we knew,
The roll of the dead is too long to review;
They each did a part this great city to build,
Though humble their labors their tasks to fulfill.
Like the widow whose mites thrown into the chest,
Or the garment that Dorcas had made as her best,
So their more humble strivings for duty and right
As through a glass darkly they struggled for light,
Were jewels more precious when by justice were weighted
Than the wealth of today, all so proudly displayed.
How we love to recall them, those long vinished years,
Though arduous our labors, we toiled without fear;
Or the problems of race the future might bring,
So we thought not of failure, and joyous could sing.
We knew everybody, our neighbors were true;
Those were anti-boss days, and anti-graft, too;
We voted straight tickets, our votes none could buy,
When a Judas approached us, we quick passed him by.
Our Sabbaths were sacred, we profaned not the day,
No balls, games, or cheap shows, that corrupt grave and gay;
One faith and one God, one heaven above,
"We loved to tell the story of Jesus and His love."
Youth may call us back numbers, unpolished the while,
Yet your gait is your own, and so is our style;
Be proud of your progress, the honors you're won,
But forget not the depths from whence you have come.
Old timers send greeting from river to sea,
From Frisco and Denver, Chicago, D. C.,
Salt Lake, and Seattle, from New York afar,
With a wish that no event this meeting shall mar.
But I pause, my dear comrades, there is more to be said
By other old timers as frosty of head;
And by contrast we'll show you how the young have advanced
On the ractrakell of life when given a chance.

Those political pessimists who declared that the good citizens of Kansas City would "lose interest" in the municipal campaign after the spirited primary contest, have been obliged to revise their predictions. Instead of relaxing their efforts and yielding to the temptation to rest secure in te belief that the battle had been won, the aroused Republicans and indignant Democrats are pushing forward with renewed determination that is gathering momentum every day. The men in charge of the clean-up campaign have disclosed fine ability as managers and organizers. While some of them confess to a lack kof experience, they are doing a splendid work and in a corresponding degree the gangsters are growing more and more desperate.

The ward meetings now being held all over the city have brought out an attendance almost unprecedented in local political history. Hundreds of men and women who have never attended political meetings before are turning out to greet the candidates upon the Republican tickets and other speakers who are presenting the issues of the campaign with force and conviction. There has been no "sagging" in the contest, no weariness in well doing. That sustained enthusiasm and vigor is manifested in the Republican campaign which is an unfalling sign of conviction of success. Men who see failure of their cause cannot perform the miracles or accomplishment that are to the credit of the Republican managers. Only a superb confidence, a positive realization of mounting strength could stimulate such efforts.
But confidence alone will not win The utmost expenditure of individual and collective energy will be necesary not only every day, but every hour until the ballots are counted the night, of April 6. Confidence is a great and splendid thing and essential to success, but it cannot bring success without a maximum of work. Thus far the campaign has been managed without a flaw. The city is aroused as it has not been aroused before. The people are hungry for the facts and enthusiastic in their hopes that at last they will regain control of their own affairs. Every recruit to righteousness bring the consumption a step nearer.
The men who are working so hard in the interests of Matthew Foster are fighting a battle for Kansas City. These patriots are inspired by a love of their city, by a desire to serve not alone themselves but all other good citizens and realize an ambition that every decent, law-abiding and moral man and woman in this community should share.

The Republicans assuredly are not going to steal any votes.

WIFE SHOOTS HUSBAND WHO FORGOT TO BUY NEW DRESS.
P. J. Walkin, Negro, 1105 East Sixteenth street, promised his wife that he would give her $5 to buy a new dress. Paydaw was on Saturday and Walkin forgot his promise.
"I'll teach yo' to forgit," his wife warned as Walkin climbed into bed on Saturday night.
A flash of flame leaped from where his wife lay. Walkin felt something warm hit his head. Thinking the argument ended the negro rolled up in the bedclothes and slumbered.
On Sunday morning Walkin peered into the morror and found his hair parted in a new manner.

If there is any one who has not noticed a great change in the trend of the race for the last two years, he is strangely blind to what is taking place. For fifty years, since freedom, the race has made many mistakes, and necessarily so, will make many more; if it is expected to be perfect; but from many of these mistakes it has profitted no little, and learned a great deal. For many a year the race listened to the advice of its friends, directing it to stay on the farm, stay in its place, give its children industrial education, and those who are in authority will look after you and will give you what you deserve. But it has learned through experience that one comes no nearer his rights by leaving them to others than he can rise from his couch with out making effort himself.

Dear Dr. Logan
As a volunteer testimony, I wish to say that I had suffered for many years with rheumatism with such severity that I could hardly walk and could not sleep at night for pains in my feet and legs. I secured a bottle of Mackey's Liniment through my cook, Mrs. Annie Porter and after using I am able to walk with ease and sleep well at night. I recommend the Mackey Liniment to anyone that it will do just what it says.

JAMES W. COLLINS,
Supt. St, John’s A. M, E. Sunday
School.
(The Monitor, Omaha, Neb.)
Criticism is of two kinds, destruc.
tive and constructive. Destructive
‘criticism is malicious and has as its
sole object the tearing down of indivi-
duals, institutions, enterprises, busi-
ness or other. It proceeds from the
ignorant however, learned they may
thin: themselves to he; the super-
ficial, the shallow-pated or the en:
vious and jealous, Constructive eri-
ticism is friendly and has as its ob-
ject the improvement of the indivi-
duzl, institution or enterprise which
it criticizes, Its aim is to build up,
not to tear down or destroy. It pro-
ceeds from the intelligent, who may
not be learned in the lore of books,
but in the hard and instructive school
of experience; the thoughtful, the
broalminded, the sympathetic and
progressive, Constructive criticism Is
honest. Destructive criticism {s easi
ly detected because it is unjust and
‘untrue.

accessions to the church.
He came without any extensive ad.

were great crowds attending and later

|He is a wonderful magnetic person:
‘ality and fearless preacher of the

and illustrations by human figures
fixed the truth upon the minds of all
his hearers from the youngest to the
oldest and from the most unlearned to
‘the most scholarly,
He is enthusiastic but devoid of the
‘vulgar and foolish and exacts from his
hearers the utmost respect and rever-
jence for the house of God.
He is all action from start to finish
and is certainly a hard worker. He
is a singer of signal ability and uses
the oldest as well as the newest
hymns, His song service is great and
much use is made of prayer in his
meetings,
He plays the piano with telling ef

DELIGHTFUL PLAY AT WESTERN|comedy with music, also written bs
UNIVERSITY. | Prof, Crews. Promise is made that) (7
“Love Is Catching” Presented By
Capable Cast.
‘The much talked of play “Love {+
Catching” by Professor Caswell W.
Crews, author of some halt dozer
plays which have been acted through
‘out the east and south, was presented
last Wednesday evening in Ward Hal
at Western University. An even larg
er crowd was present than at the
annual play of the Braithwaite Play
ers last year, standing room being
at a premium as early as eight
o'clock, The curtain rose promptly
at §:15, the scheduled time and at
the conclusion of the finale, “Sunny
Florida” an enthusiastic crowd weds
ed its way out, having laughed up
roariously, seen some acting fal
above the amcteur category, and
humming fragments of the tuneful
choruses with which the play had
deen profusely interspersed. Among
the song numbers were “Cindy Lou’
‘by Sam Kimes and Marshall Woods:
“You Ain't Heard Nothing Yet," Wil
tam Wrice and fellows; “Move Int
my Heart," Caseie Shannon and
chorus, “Sweeti> Mine," Xanthanese
‘Brown and girls, “I Used to Call her
Baby.” William Simms and “Sunny
Florida” the finale, lead by Eulalee
Crosswhite.
‘The lines were excellently interpret
ed, parts being taken by Miss Ida
Brown, Moses May, as Mrs. Pinkhurse
and a henpecked lusband, Miss Cas
sie Shannon, their daughter who
finds that suffrage and love will not
mix, and the Pinkhurse baby, Ov
cr characters were Ennis, sweetheart
of Silvea, well ployed by Nanthanese
Brown, Chester, his chum, pleasingly
interpreted by William Simms, Sibyl,
sweetheart of Chester, charmingly
portrayed by Miss Alcenia Jones
The comedy was carried to the con:
vulsive point by Misses Birdie Hill
and Alberta Roberts as Mrs, Eat-Em
Alive and Ebony, respectively, the
latter determined to have a husband.
The slogan “We Make Our Own
Plays” has doubtless served greatly
to draw the crowds to Quindaro. ‘The
next production will be “Ritas” a
comedy with muste, also written by
Prof, Crews. Promise ts made that
‘this will be the greatest play of them
fall, ‘The cast is already in process
of rehearsal and the date will be
definitely announced in the columns
of this paper.
A dinner social was given by the
Senior class in honor of Prof, Crews
on the Friday following the play, a
delightful program being rendered
and a dainty five course menu served.
Many requests have been made for
a repetition of the play even out of
the city,

and with no little right compelled to
fight against the Government, Now
the Government seeks to induce him
to fight for it. The enlistment is
going on at Ponca City, Okla, with
not too much enthusiasm, ‘The Negro
urges: Come in, valiant ho, the cay:

‘The tremendous and tireless efforts
of our lawyers, Hiveston and Calloway
have been rewarded and Dr, Bundy
is out on bond and granted another
trial which promises to be unpresudie:
ed end fair. To gain this point is a
great achievement, But the goal of
Hueston and Calloway is absolute
freedom or acquittal and they are re-
doubling their energies to that end.
Let's give them ture cheers,
‘The great legal victory which re
sulted in Dr, Leroy Bundy’s release
was the result of the brilliant, un
ceasing battle waged by bis counsel,
Hueston & Calloway of this City.
‘These two able barristers have emerg-

Last year when herculean efforts
were being made to release Allen

The Art world, especially of Eng

the Statue of the Saviour chiseled by
an American born Jewish Sculptor,
Jacob Epstein, !: does not represent
the meek and lowly Messiah, says one
Jewish critic. ‘The head is elongat:
ed and of a Negroid type with an
arched Roman nose tilted up at the
tip and the toes are turned upward.
‘The facial expression is neither meek.
nor suffering, nor sympathetic but
rather aloof, strong, and proud and yet
there is nothing irreverent about it.
‘he spectator is held as if by a spell
by a dominating intellectual force.”
CLOSE RANKS BLACK MEN.
Now that the momentary bitterness:
es engendered in the Primary Cam-
paign have died out and have been
relegated to the realms of forgetful-
ness, it behooves every real, red-
blooded Republican to line up, should:
er to shoulder and fight along side of
‘those representatives of other poli:
tical organizations who believe in
civic decency and honesty to release
‘our splendid city from the thraldom
‘of the rotten government which exists
im this City today. The Black man
is naturally a Republican and under
ordinary condition: can always be
counted upon to advocate the princi
ples and support the candidates of
that grand old party, And the Sun
believes that if let alone and permit:
ed to work out their own problem
the vast majority will still be found
enrolled under the banner of that
party, We have no quarrel with those
earnest and honey: men of our race
who may have in the past affiliated
with the Democratic party but we do
sincerely believe that with the great
issues confronting us in the City the
State and the Nation in this momen:
tous year 1920 that every Negro
should be able to answer when the
roll of the loyal and uncompromising
supporters of the REPUBLICAN PAR

WITHOUT VISIBLE MEANS.
(The Dero, Stich. 1eader.)
‘There is @ great army of men living
in the cities that apparently earn
their living without a visible means
It is not our business to deal with
How. That belongs to the exponents
of the law—the police department.
But it is the influence that it seems
to havo upon our boys and girls that
causes our complaint, It is terrible
for the youth to be thrown in contact
with such lawlessness continually, To
see such parasites getting what seems
to be such an easy living with so lit
tle effort. It is inviting without word.
Good clothes, diamonds, and fine cars
appeal to younger men with the result
that there are many failing to keep

—That the bigger a fellow becomes,
the louder the skeleton’s chains will
rattle in his closet
—That life has no opiate powerful
enough to deaden the sting of an
accusing conscience,
—That a true friend is the fellow
who remembers his old friends after
he becomes prosperous.
—That if some nen were to be sold
at a price valued on the good they
were to the community, they wouldn't
bring a dime.
—That if you want to make ene-
mies among the unprogressive and
nonaggressive Cullud population, just
do something worth while,
—That when the lights went off
the other night at a certain well
known Church one of the brethren
reached over and gently caressed a
sister. But the lights came on with:
out warning and now the d—tI is to
pay in a couple cf families.
—That a certain Debating Society
vecently had for its subject for discus
sion: “When is a woman at her
dest." One meniber said “When she
has plenty of money that she may. se-
cure what she needs.” Another
member sald “When she's young.”
Another said “Between the ages of
2y and 35." One old brother who
had had plenty of experience said
“Ain't none of yo'll right about dis
subject, @ woman is at her best when
she’s dead.” The Society broke up.
