METROPOLIS WEEKLY GAZETTE [Picture of a man in a suit with a bow tie and a mustache]. Pastor of St. John Baptist Church, Mounds, and Treasurer of Mt. Olive Baptist Association of Southern Illinois UNIVERSITY OF MILWAUKEE LIBRARY DEC 15 1921 VOLUME XXIV REV. G. W. Pastor of St. John Baptist Ch of Mt. Olive Baptist Assoc MCKENZIE FENN, Editor Gazette: Please allow us space in your valuable paper to say that I love to read your paper and am impressed with it, so much so until I am going to get others to read it. I am glad that the good people in Metropolis are still moving onward and engaged in the same church work, that we are doing in Tennessee. I was in your city a few weeks ago attending the funeral of our sister, Mrs. Martha Harmon, my mother Charlotte and wife Mrs. Chartie Rodgers. We are glad to say that the people there made it so pleasant for us, but owing to the occasion we did not enjoy it as we would have done under normal conditions. We cannot forget you for your kindness. We feel sad when we look back to two or three years ago when we visited sister Martha and uncle Mack Hooper, and she met us at the boat, and made it so pleasant for us while in their home, but, she has gone to live with Jesus weere we mill meet her when our work is oe.r. Mrs. Frank Walker of St. Louis Mo., is visiting home folks this week. Mrs. Peggie Bell, is on the sick list. Rev H. C. Swayie, retur ei from his work in Ky. You will hear from us again. Respectfully, Charlie Rodgers. WHO ARE DRIFTING? When we think of the results of the recent election, and the part the colored electorate plaped in said elections, we can't but see a wide change in the Negroes political status in America. It is charged by some that the Negroes is drifting from the Republican party. The truth of such a statement must be determined by the facts in the case. The facts are: The Negro is just beginning to wake up to the realization that the Republican party of today, is not the party as founded by the fore fathers - men like Lin olo. Grant and Roosevelt. The Negro has clung to the Republican party because of a principle; a principle of all men up, and none down; a principle that all men are created free and equal; a principle that the government owes o every one equal protection of the law. These are the principles that represent one-hundred per cent American. The Negro believes in those principles heart and soul, THEY SAY —That underhand methods soon overreach thems-lives —That when business begins to slackens up, you may know the reason; your business is not sufficiently advertised —That the average woman swallows flattery pust as a baby swallows buttons—regardless of the trouble may follow. —That a certain preacher was very much disappointed when he read that "there won', be any beer." We wonder why —That the boys follow the new Knickerbocker wearers these days like they used to follow Barnum Circus thirty years ago. Well they look better than Barnum's Circus to Muh. —That what the turkey caught on Thanksgiving day is what a whole lot of Negroes are going to get if they don't mend their ways. Now what was it? Can you guess? —That a certain married woman when caressing her husband, called him "John dear" when his name was Charlie was treading on pretty dangerous ground. Wasn't she? Her husband thinks so. —That 7th Street was thrown into a furore when a tall dark culldom gentleman came down that thoroughlare last Sunday attired in a tall silk hat and a Prince Albert Palm Beach suit with white shoes to match. Wasn't he a peach? —That when you ask a person "What paper do you read?" they always answer: "For all the news I need but one." I read the Metropolis Weekly Gazette. MOTTO: "HEW TO THE LINE, LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY." Dear Editor: Please allow me space in your paper to say that our Church is yet alive. Our pastor Rev. C. W. Norment was with us Sunday. He preached two strong gospel sermons which our hearts were made to rejoice. The offering for the day was $25 45. The Ladies Aid met at the residence of Mrs. Chas. Rhodes Monday afternoon. On last week a surprise birthday party, was given Mrs. Winnie Faulkner. She received many valuable presents. The Masonic Lodge No. 84 will hold a public Installation Saturday night at Howard's Hall. Mrs. Hattie McDonald was giva surprised birthday party Monday night. Note! Hereafter please sign your name to insure its publication —Editor Burlington Buys Passenger Equipment In anticipation of, and preparatory for, the movement of the tremendous vacation, convention and regular traffic which will move next year, the Burlington Route is placing contracts for 127 pas-eger cars. Included in the order are 12 dining cars, 5 chair cars, 54 coaches, 12 baggage, 22 mail and 22 miscellaneous cars. All of these cars will be of massive steel construction and embody all of the latest-approved devices and comforts known to the modern car builder. Placed end to end, this equipment would make a train almost a mile and one-half long. "Q" ROAD HAS SHEEP BARN. What is without question the largest sheep barn in the United States has recently compiled and placed in service by the Burlington Railroad at Montgomery Illinois forty miles west of Chicago, on the main line to and from the west. The Burlington brings more sheep to the great markets of the West than any other rail-road and this equipment has been prepared for the accommodation of shippers so that sheep in transit may be unloaded and held for market. The installation consists of seven barns, each 450 feet long and 130 feet wide, surrounded by 1,000 acres of pasture and farm; a hay barn, a feed barn, a grainery and a modern reinforced-concrete elevator with an approximate capacity of 100,000 bushels. Drinking water for feeding the yards is secured from a battery of wills and quality of the water is said to be above par. Complete system of fire protection covers the entire plant which is also served by an absolutely perfect drainage system. An independent power plant accelerates the water circulation and provides electric light. This plant can accammodare 70,000 members of the wooly tribe at one time. John Erickson, who is responsible for its opation, is considered second to none in his line of work. DO YOU KNOW THAT? A silent man's words are ever repeated in court. It is easier to reform a man than to keep him reformed. Every woman knows how to manage her daughter's husband. It's awfully hard for a little woman to impress people with her dignity. A wise man is satisfied to appear great in the eyes of his wife and children. When finanally fame does come to the average man it has to rest on his monument. Many a man invests in a bold brick under the impression that it is a golden opportunity. Some people are so absent-minded that if they should think before they speak they would forget what they were going to say. Some women are wise and others are clever. Occasionally a woman is both, but because that is the case it is hard to convince her of either. Nobody believes in lying, but until something better is offered what is poor human nature to do when it is neither wise nor expedient to tell the truth. If you must throw, use stones; words are dangerous. His satanic majesty is always getting something for nothing Some men wear good clothes be cause they cant afford not to. Ever notice how particular a baid man is about the care of his hair? Some men hurry through life as if leap year widows were after them. There are some hypocrites in the church but think of the vast number outside of it. Most women have faith in their husbands as long as they can buy things on credit at the dry goods store. No wonder the ocean waves get angry when the wind is constantly blowing them up SILVER LEAF CLUB The Silver Leaf Club met 7:30 Monday evening Dec. 5, at the residence of sister Amanda Barnard. Opened in the usual form. Scripture reading by the president Sisler Vienna Ford. 16 verses of 14th chapter of St, John. We had a lovely meeting and are increasing in membeship, with 23 members present. We had three visitors: Bros. B. Upshaw, Finney and sister Mattie Fossie, which made some very interesting remarks.

N BOAZ, One of the most brilliant affairs of the season was the wedding reception, Saturday. December 3rd, of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Dixon at the home of the groom's mother, Mrs. Anna Dixon, of Boaz, Ill. The house was beautifully decorated with chrysanthemums and terns. The color scheme of green and white was artistically carried out in the living room and dining room. A delightful three course luncheon was served by Mrs George Stratton a cousin of the groom. The bride before her marriage, November 29th, was Miss Eula Thomas, daughter of Mr. Nobby Thomas, one of the leading members of Free Baptist Church of Boaz. The newly weds will make their home for the present with the groom's mother. MRS GEORGE STRATTON To the members composing the Executive Board of the Mt Olive Baptist S. S. Convention. As there was some financial business of our last meeting in Colp, that not finished, and as I have been unable to get it adjusted through correspondence, it will be necessary to call a meeting of the Board in the near future. The time and place will be announced later. J. W. Corneal, Dist. Pres. 424 N. Sycamore. Official announcement of the resignation of United States Marshal Cooper Stout of the East St. Louis branch of the Federal Court was made yesterday by Chief Deputy Marshal Holmes, who stated that the resignation had been requested by Attorney General Daugherty and would become effective December 31. Marshal Stout, who home is at Murphysboro, Ill., was appointed eight years ago under the Democratic administration, and will be replaced by James A. White, a Republican and former warden of the Southern Illinois Penitentiary at Chester, Illinois. White's home is also at Murphysboro. This change will be the second Republican replacement in the E. St. Louis Federal Building, John J. Faulkner having succeeded Dr. Edgar H. Little as Postmaster several months ago. Waterproof.

English Summer The term "Indian summer" is applied to a period of mild, open weather that comes in the fall, embracing the most of October and sometimes extending into November, and characterized by a sort of dry mist or haziness that differentiates it from other seasons of the year. What causes the dielectric feature of the season, especially the heavy atmosphere, is unknown, and the origin of the term equally so. Differences, explanations have been given of both, but they seem to be largely fanciful. Read The Gazette. Read our Locals and Foreign News "It May be a Letter From Home."

There is only one way to cure cartarrhja deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes. When this tube inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.

Don't be too quick to make up your mind until you see the announcements appear in The Gazette. If it is true that an idle mind is the devil's workshop, then it is certain that he has many shops in which to work and it appears he is using them to perfection. When any man or woman arrives at the conclusion that they are the center of attraction and all others must relive around them, and up them on account of their superiority in wisdom, they are making a fatal mistake, which has caused many men and women to die influential. No matter what their literary or financial attainment may have been. There are people in the church and S. S. think when have piped everybody must dance. There are bosses in the church that are doing more injury to the church and driving more people out of the church today, than the devil himself, and for the mast part this devilment is laid at the pastor's door. With this class of members in the church as the devil's agents, he don't have to enter his presence there, as he knows his interests will be keenly taken care of. The modern day peace breakers and church disturbers, (busy bodies), and gossip mongers going from house to house, from Monday morning until late Saturday night tieing the foxes' tails together, and, then on Sunday morning are the first to take the first to take the front seats in church all dressed up in their sanctimonious garb of deception, possibly answering the preacher, or perhaps all "swelled" up with a hungry spirit, toking exceptions to thinfs said in the pastor's sermon, getting ready to start out on their mission of tale bearing, fault finding on Monday morning to peddle out their slime and putrefying elements of sin and poison the minds of the slothful members against the faithful members, the pastor and the work established by Jesus Get Away This Winter! Burlington Route Christ, has hell in their hearts are a great worse in our estimation than the traitorous acts of Judas scariot, who betrayed Christ for 30 pieces of silver and is a clear cut proof that Jesus is not in their life nor are they accuited with a change of heart. Any one who may chance to read these lines, poner over them seiously with prayer to see if you are, before passing them over to your neighbors. If you are guilty, get down on bended knees immediately and pray mightly to for God to forgive, ane to cleanss your polluted heart, for being in league with thevil, and you will be fitted for service and less sault finding and criticisms as geneally the fault is almost wholly within within he or she who always see the faults of others.

ILL Sisters, and I must say Brethren of the East Mt. Olive Baptist Family. As State Missionary of Women's auxiliary, I am thankful that God has spared our lives to start on another year. Let us as women do more this year for the cause of Christ, than we did last year. Sisters, do you not stop and think? Oh yes, women were the first to behold the forsaken grave as Christ arose out of the tomb. If Jesus when on earth loved Mary and Martha so tenderly and sought often peace and repose in their home enjoying daily their sympathy, love and companionship? Does He not now desire and seek the Mary's of today who break their alabaster boxes of love and pour the precious ointment on the heads of the sick and sorrowing and suffering of the earth, and thereby fill the entire world with the fragrance of christianity?
