Proud That He
(By The Associated Negro Press) TUSKEGGEE INSTITUTE, ALABAMA, May 19—"I have never been more proud of the fact that I am a Negro than since I have been at Tuskegee Institute," said Frank L. Gill spie, of Chicago, in addressing 2000 students and teachers of Tuskegee Institute. "I see on all sides indications of race progress which are very encouraging. This splendid plant being operated by Negroes; these earnest Negro boys and girls striving
I prepare themselves for useful citizenship and this highly trained faculty, composed of Negroes, struggling for the uplift of the race, inspire me more than I can here express. When I see all these things, I can readily realize why it is that most of the successful business men and women, whom I have met in traveling over this country, have received at least a port-on of their training at Tuskegee Institute."
Mr. Gillespie, who is president of the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Chicago, has been at the Institute for several days. The Liberty Life Insurance has taken its place among the leading enterprises of the race. It was organized in 1921 and after seven months in the field has $800,000 worth of Insurance in operation and employs one hundred men and women of the race and offers opportunities to others who are training for business careers.
The Truth Reaches Many Southerners. (For Associated Negro Press)
ST. LOUIS, MO. May, 19, —May 9th, the next day after the three Negroes were burned at Kirby, Texas, William Pielens delivered an address in St. Louis, to an audience of more than one thousand white people in the West Presbyterian Church, the aristocratic section of the city, the audience consisting largely of white men and women from Arkansas, Texas and other Southern states. The philosophy of the white man's interest in the lynching evil, was the theme of the address. The speaker demonstrated the degrading and inferior tendencies among the whites in lynching states.
It was surprising to note how many hundreds of these Southern people filed by to shake hands and make acknowledgement of the truth that had been spoken, when the address was over. The Arkansas whites, hearing that the speaker grew up in Arkansas, were especially demonstrative of their interest and cordial spirit. When the better whites of the South are out of their oppressive environments, they think normally.
Mr. Pickens also spoke on the 10th at the C. M. E. General Conference and at a great mass meeting in the City, with Congressman Dyer as the other speaker, on "The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill."
For The World.
(By The Associated Negro Press)
NEW YORK, May 10—The New York World, prints the following Montreal dispatch:
Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion of the world, will defend his title against Harry-Wills, the Negro heavyweight champion, in the baseball park here on July 1. All that remains to insure the meeting is for Jack Kearns, manager of Demney, to sign the formal articles of agreement. The
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 19—In the House the full power of the Harding adm'nistraton was brought to bear to carry out an obligation of the Wilson regime.
The issue was the loan of $5,000,000 to Liberia. A joint resolution to reauthorize the credit provoked one of the sharpest party clashes in the House in years. The Democrats voleently attacked the proposal as designed to re'mburse international bankers for Liberian securities.
The Republican leaders mercilessly wielded the party lash, but even then the proposition was too much for forty on their side who went over to the Democrats. Many others declined to vote. The bill was finally passed, 148 to 19. The resolution now goes to the Senate.
Leading the opposition. Representative Garner of Texas said:
"This is the first time in the history that the bankers have come up and said they are strong enough with the administration to demand that you do their bidding."
He read from the record of the hearings on the resolution that J. P. Morgan & Co., Kuhn & Co., the National City Bank, all of New York, furnished R1. 60000 to refund Liberia's indebtedness in 1912.
Example of Righteousness.
BOSTON, MASS., May 19.—The State's Senate, following this example set by the House of Representatives by an overwhelming vote pass'd a resolution urging the United States Senate to pass a bill making mob murder and lynching a crime against the federal government. The resolution calls for the speedy enactment of the Dyer Bill now before Congress and reads in part as follows:
"The General Court of Massachusetts respectfully urges upon the United States Senate and its judiciary committee the speedy enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, so-called, already passed by the House of Representatives by an overwhelming majority, and designed to end lynching by making mob murder a crime against the federal government."
The National Equal Rights League and others petitioned the State Legislature to urge the United States Senate to pass this bill.
bout., it is understood, will be promoted by the Montreal Chamber of Commerce and the Montreal Press Club, and assurance has been given that no interference will come from the authorities. July 1 here is Dominion Day, which corresponds to Independence Day, or July 4, in United States. The date falls on Saturday and it is anticipated that 100,000 can see the bout as temporary stands will be erected in the base-ball park. It is understood that Frank Flournoy, matchmaker of the Garden Athletic Club in New York, is interested, among others, in the bout.
No limit is placed on the price of tickets here, whereas in New Jersey under the new laws it are limited to $15 as a maximum. Assurance also have been given that no objection will be raised to the mixed bout. Harry Willis long, has been considered the logical chieftenger for Dempsey's title. He has size, reach, weight and boy's skill in his favor, to say nothing of plenty of experience. The amount of the purse has not been divulged, but it is understood that Dempsey's guaranteed $300,000 with the privilege if a percentage on the gross receipts, which are likely to reach $1,000,000 or more.
Later d'amatches from New York and from Montreal direct said that the first report apparently was an error. Officials of the Montreal chamber of commerce were quoted as saying that that organization knew nothing of a plan for such a contest

KANSAS CITY, MO., May 19,
James Manuel, Colored, of Kansas
City, is a millionaire, twice over. But
he doesn't know it.
For when Manuel left Tampico,
Mexico, years ago, he thought a strip
of land he owned there was valueless.
Now, according to a letter received
by R. A. Kope, lawyer, Manuel's property is in the heart of the greatest oil district in the world. It is worth $2,250,000 according to a letter received by Kope from Joe Espino, a former friend of Manuel, who is seeking the immigrant in the hope that he may claim the fortune due him.
Espino has lost trace of his former friend. The last time he heard from him, Manuel was living in Kansas City.

Union Baptist Church, Rev. I. H. Hughea, Pastor.
Sunday School at 10 a. m. Each teacher at his post and we had a splendid lesson; many good thoughts were drawn out.
At 11:00 the pastor selected the 57th division of Psalms and first verse from which he delivered a soul stirring sermon.
At 8:00 o'c'ock we enjoyed another feast in a testimonial meeting.
Afterwhich we celebrated the Lord's Supper. A glorious time was had all day. After Communion we had one dinner to stand up and ask the church to pray for him with tears in his eyes. We were all made to cry as one of old. "I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord." God bless our worthy pastor, we are looking forward to a great success under his leadership.

(By The Associated Negro Press) BOSTON, MASS, May 19,—The colored people of Massachusetts, were urged to take the anti-lynching bill to the polls this fall and defeat Senator Lodge for re-election, unless he got behind the measure, in a speech made in Unity House by Congressman Dyer, who is the author of the anti-lynching bill, which has passed the House and is now with a Senate sub-committee, spoke under the auspices of the Boston chapter of the N. A. A. C. P. Moorefield Storey presided, and James Weldon Johnson, national secretary of the association, also spoke.
"Let Senator Lodge know," the Congressman appealed, "that the colored people of Massachusetts, men and women, are standing together for the protection of their race, which cannot protect itself; that you look to him for favorable consideration of the bill, and that if nothing is done you will hold him responsible.
"You have more power than any other section of the country in this great fight, because Senator Lodge, the leader of the Senate, like every other public official, must get the votes of the people."
"The Senate has it in its power to pass this bill, and if the Senate does not pass it every Republican Senator that comes up for election this fail ought to be defeated. The Republican's party is committed to such an anti-lynching measure by the platform adopted at Chicago, and its fate is in he hands of this Republican Senate.
"The colored people in this State have enough votes to decide whether a Republican Senator shall be elected or not. Although I am a Republican, I would gladly vote for a Democrat if he were willing to help in this great cause."
. The audience, which completely filled the hall, was aroused to excitement by the speaker's exhortations.
Say Buddy! I want to see you in full uniform in the parade. The mayor or governor request your presence there. Are you not proud of the service you rendered your country? If so, show it by being in the parade. Your country is proud of you; show your personal feelings by being present; then all will know you are proud of the bit you did and that the country is proud of you.

Be Well, Feel,Well And Stay Well.
Issued under the direction of the Medical Director and Advisor HEALTH SERVICE ASSOCIATION, Wichita, Kansas.
To be well embraces all conditions of environment which must promote a self-created harmony in all matters pertaining to one's peace of mind. "Sickness" is not necessarily of pathogenic analysis. When the doctor can find no indication requiring medicine or other ministrations of his office he is at times in a quandry as to an equitable disposal of "cases" which come within this jurisdiction; however the thinking man of medicine readily perceives between these perplexing lines the social conditions of our too fast dap and it's ravages upon the natural inheritances of mankind, who in the fevered rush for existence and industrial conquest has ruthlessly laid aside those natural impulses for play, etc., which made life for the individual what it should be for society today.
The "fevered rush" of time is of one's own making. Quite often the necessity for this rush is only in the imagination. Many of us in confronting the problems and perplexities of that strata of life in which fortune has ordered us look upon our duties as martyrdom or as cruel necessities by which we make possible an unappreciated existence.
Dear member the doctor cannot by treatment make you like your part in life; however, that you should like it stands out in hold relief; that is if you are to maintain your share of life's responsibilities. Have you no responsibilities? The question admits of no argument. You have Your very existence ennacing from the Perfect source of all life is so or ered. To be well, feel well and keep well we must simulate the perfection of this Source which made our lives subject to toil, amusement, play and service, no one of these duties and pleasures to be overindulged to the exclusion of another.
Within the folds of this pamphlet it is not our purpose to set forth an u tri-religiaries treatise; however, for a moment bear with us and mentally, in earnest companionship behold the man whether he be laborer, artisan professional or capitalist who;—approaches his work smilingly and confidently discharge's u duty as his part in the great industrial schoenic of creation. $ ^{*} $

The man who loses not feel well and yet develops no definition of physical defect is often a victim of himself Oftimes, he notes the disparity with which Old Lady Fete has arranged the social setting. He grieves because of his inability to give his family the advantages to which he believes it isnt tled. His promotions have not been in order. His wages have been only sufficient to maintain existence however, he has by sacrificing his good judgment managed to "keep up" appearances, (not this). As a worker of whatever class this man considers his work not as such but a drudgery. This condition of mind encourages the frown which the wife dreads and tries to kiss away, while the little ones wait an opportune time of
PRICE, FIVE CENTS
'MOTHER LOVE.'
After all we say, home and love in the home, the chief attraction of the sacred spot is mother. The principal element in the happiness and joy of home is the mother's love. There may be no fire in the grate, no carpet on the floor, no pictures on the wall, no curtains at the window, no instrument of music, few comforts of life and the table may have no luxuries and the co'd winter day—the presence of a good mother will make home beautiful. O how often it has been said, "What is a home, without a mother?" Better than gold is a peaceful home. Where all the fireside charities come; The shrine of love and the heaven of life.
Hallowed by mother; sister or wife. However humble the home may be. Or tried with sorrow by Heaven's decrec; The blessings that never were bought nor sold. That center there are better than gold. There is no descriptive language to define the word Mother; It is the next to the word God. Next to the love of God, is the Mother love; what is true of the mother love is true of herself. A woman never becomes herself until she becomes a mother. The purest of womanhood is the best there is in nature. Even Jesus Christ had a mother; thus the highest compliment ever paid to mortal, was when Dvin ty condescended to incarnation through the Virgin Mary.
It is said that a baby feeds on its mother's bosom, but always on her heart and the great Napoleon affirmed—The destiny of a child is always the work of the mother. I shall never forget my mother as on this world's great stage and each of us must play our part; and when the darkest of life is at hand, I think and believe we are guided by the thoughtful tencings of our mothers. The love of the child to its mother, He gazed at the flowers with tearful eyes;
He kissed its drooping leaf,
It was for the Lord of Paradise,
He bound them in the sheaves.
'There is a reaper whose name is
death.'
"Lackward, turn backward, O time in
Your flight,
Make me a child again, just for tonight,
Mother, come back from the scholess shore,
Take me again to your heart as of yore;
Kiss from my forehead the furrows of care.
Smooth the few silver threads out of my hair.
Over my slumbers your loving watch keep,
Rock me to sleep mother, rock me to sleep."
O if we could but call back a few years when our mothers offered prayer, when our ancestors were in slavery. O how many times have our mothers gone hungry to feed their children; and have gone half clothed to have the daughter or son to look nice on Sunday. Then, God first and Mother next.
approaching their protector. The man a sick.
If you are dissatisfied with your work and restricted social standing—you are dissatisfied with your home and its pleasures. Consequently you are attracted to public amusements which are ever ready to absorb your last dollar. Oh! that you would create your own pastime developing to the best advantages your body and members. Too much of stage amusement stultifies your mental process because its setting is of the high social kind which more and more polisons the mind with envy. Mr. Man, play, horse-shoes, trap-frog, play horse with the kids and tell wife that she's the whole thing. The frown of mental sickness will leave. You will have no time to entertain it. If you are dissatisfied with all these things, you will be able to see no good in the church or other welfare enterprises. The members and workers will only appeal to you as a lot of old hypo-

What an incentive to right doing is the lesson we learned in Sunday School May 14th, "Ilexekiah Leads His People Back to God." Oh how glorious to worship the true and living God! New Hope parishioners and friends realized this at the Sunday morning services, when Dr. E. T. Fishback preached such a wonderfully inspiring sermon from the subject: "The Character of a revival Needed by the Church Today."
At 3 00 p. m., under the auspices of the Baptist Women's City-Wide Missionary Union, a good program in honor of "Mother" on "Mothers' Day" The rendition was excellent. Each adult was carried back to childhood and the tributes to motherhood caused all to rejoice in the thoughts of those sweet angels of comfort.
Do you wish to see young and old radiant and cheerful in B. Y. P. U. Service? Then come Sunday at six p. m., remain through the social hour from six to seven and the study hour from seven to eight. Then you will be so happy that you will worship with us through the evening service, which begins at eight.
Hosra, eleventh chapter, was the Scripture Lesson used by our minister Sunday evening. Dr. Fishback, in his cannest, interesting way, gave to the congregat on a sermon which was God-sent and well received. The subject follows:—"The Condition of the Revival Needed by the Church of Today."
The Mission Circle of New Hope Baptist Church will meet at 2:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon, May 25, at the home of Mrs. Emma Peterson.

St. Mary's Baptist Notes.
Our reporter being absent the 1st Sunday in the month, we failed to get our report to press, however, we are glad to say that our 1st Sunday services were nearly all we expected.
The morning services were filled with the spirit of God and we rejoiced. In the afternoon, associated by Drs. Hayes, Rannavalona, Green and our own church minister, our pastor, Iev. J. E. Douglass, was standing upon the banks of the water with more than 20 candidates for baptism. After the usual performance, Rev. Rannavalona made the Baptismal talk and it was fine, to say the least. We heartily thank all who contributed to our activities of that day.
Sunday May 14th was a fine day for services at our church. The pastor who had been lingering for some little while, being some better, was in the pulpit at 11 o'clock a.m. From 2nd Chron. 30:0, preached a splendid sermon; words: "God is Gracious and Merciful." After the sermon two came forward with Christian experiences and one candidate for baptism, and were received to the membership. The B. Y. P. U. Session was grand; President Newton had seleceted a new set of teachers and they were at their posts of duty, full of real life

A., had done and what we expect to do in the future; we felt encouraged as he spoke to us. All was followed by the presence of Prof. H. T. Sims, the District Organizer of the Southwest District Sundry School and B. Y. P. U. Teachers' Training Course, giving the blackboard drawing of the work and the use of such service; dwell'n upon the subject of the Law of God, and all were satisfied. Prof. Sims will organize a Teachers' Training Course at St. Mary's Church, soon.
We have several Cement Blocks on the ground for our church enlargement, and the basement almost finished; let us all have a mind to work and it will be well with us. T he Lord helps those who help themselves, and that is what we are doing. Come over and help us.
The Minister will organize a Ladies' Aid Circle as soon as possible, which be a great asset to the church. Pray for us.
We are pleased to see the spirit of unity as it seems to exist among the Christian friends of late.

Sunday was a high day at both churches; the 2nd Sunday in May being Mothers' Day, and in which we all celebrated. Morning service, Rev. Fing preached a soul stirring sermon to all mothers. In the afternoon we all attended the program at the A. M. E. Church, which was very interesting.
The B. Y. P. U., is doing splendid work. Yesterday was E. L. Day, they received 50% for raising the most money. Next Sunday is W. and R's, day; she is always that and never behind. We still have our motto we had during the Chatauqua—"Are we weak? No, Can we be beat? No." and that is surely the truth, too, and we have another: "Bite off more than you can chew, and chew it;" and we do that too and get by with it. Every body is invited to come and hear W. and R. Program Sunday, the one that can't be beat.
Willing and Ready Section is planning to take their play to Coffeyvill, next Thursday, entitled, "Neglected husband." They plan going on a truck and you also have an invitation to come go through the country with us and heer those mighty actors of W. and R. Section.
The truck ride out to O. W. Reddin's last Tuesday evening was well attended and enjoyed.
Sunday, Mothers' Day was the Friendship Club's Rally Day. We will all have to give it to Friendship, and Naomi Clubs, for they are doing some nice repair work on the church, getting ready for the Convention. The Friendship Club has had the church painted on the inside and has been set up only two weeks; and have made $1750 in the two weeks. We are high in praise of three two clubs.
Mothers' Day Program was well attended at the B. B. Church and also enjoyed, as follows:

Junction City, News.
The State Board Meeting of the Smoky Hill River District, which met in Ellsworth, last week May 10, 11, 12, was a great success, according to reports from delegates, sent up to represent Junction City. We are proud to learn that the district is doing great work for God's Cause. We know that if each district in Kansas is working as hard as this district, Kansas will go 'over the top' in Christian work this year.
Rev. G. T. Raimey, pastor of Second Baptist Church and Moderator of S. H. D., has not yet returned home since the Board Meeting, but has gone on into Western Kansas, attending to his moderatorship duties. Mrs. Raimey left Sunday evening for Ablene, to visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Simpson, during Rev. Raimey's stay in Western Kans. Mr. and Mrs. John Walker, who recently moved into the country, were in the city Sunday, and visited their church and many friends who were very glad to receive them.
The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias held their Annual Services in un'on at the Second Baptist Church, here and having nice weather, many turned out to this affair. Rev. Warren of the A. M. E. Church delivered a solendid sermon for both orders. The women folks of both orders also turned out. The District Missionary, Rev W. E. Harrison, visited in our city and held services for Rev. Rimey, Sunday morning remaining all dry and delivered some very encouraging remarks Sunday night after the Mothers' Day Program.
Sunday, May 14th. Sunday School opened at 10 o'clock by Sunt. Song: "Tell Mother. I'll be There;" praver by District Missionry. Rev. W. E. Harrison. Repetition of Matt. 5:1-12 led by Sunt. Song.

Teachers took charge of lesson for 20 minutes. Music. "Abida With me;" while classes returned to room.
Reqrt from Board Meeting by Sunt., which was enforced by all. Dismissed by District Missionary.
Morning services at 11 o'clock by Junior choir singing. I saw my mother kneeling. Poor Bm H E. Marshall; song Tell mother I'll be there. On account of being crowded for time. Scripture reading was omitted and District Missionery. Rev. Harrison chose "Divine Family" for his text, which made a wonderful text for morning services on Mothers' Day.
Song and collection for Diet. Missionary, Doxology. Dilimited.
R. Y. P. H.. Services opened at 6:30 p.m. with Sister Lola Grimes acting president. Song, "What a Friend in Jesus!" Sentence prayer. Song My Faith looks up to Thee: Scripture reading Prov. 16:1-20. Bro. Henry Jones' minutes read adopted. Report from Board Meeting by Mrs. J. B. Devine also by Miss. Pres. M. D. Jones both of which were enloveyed by all. Lesson token un by acting President, subject; "Helping Our Church, Our Church Helping Us." This proved to be a very helpful lesson, afterwhich a question box was opened and found to contain interesting questions, causing the Scripture to be searched.
Evening services opened with a Mothers' Dav Program. Song, "Hide me O my Savior;" prayer by Dist.
Missionary, Rev. Harrison. Scripture reading, Bro. Jerome Graves, Psalm 37:1-10; song by choir "Mother." Reading by Sister Lois Grimes; solo, "There's only one Mother" Bro. H. E.

Sunday was a beautiful day, spent pondering over the thoughts of Mother, beginning with the Sunday School; we had a beautiful lesson. If we put God first, when starting out in life, whatever it may be, you will prosper. At 11:30 a. m., Rev. A. Jackson opened service by singing, "Guide Me O Thou." etc; Scripture lesson 95th Psalm and St. John 8:1-7. He spoke on Mothers and how dear they are. We could all witness the fact of our Mothers.
At 6.00 p. m., Epworth Lergue opened and finding our pastor had returned from the General Conference at St. Louis. Mo., made a few remarks on his trip, the best Conference in the history. Sunday night, he will give the echo from the General Conference.
At 8:00 p. m., the pastor read St. John 7th chapter for Scripture lesson; subject: "Behold, Thy Mother," he said, "how blessed it is to have a praying mother;" and many other good things pertaining to our duty toward our mothers.
Tuesday evening the N. C. Cleaves Literary met, opened by president Mr. D. Brown. Manv were there to hear the singing, which was carried out nicely.
M'sa Alma Williams won 1st prize a beautiful comb and brush; Mr. Clem Butter, 2nd prize, handkerchief box very beautiful and well accepted.

The first four dava of the membership Campaign have been very encouraging to those interested in the promotion of the work. The large number of young men and boys joining, is very encouraging; and is indicative of their interest. Nine High School boys have taken $5.00 memberships.
One of the outstanding features of the Campaign was the 100% at L'Ouverture School. Every male member of the faculty took a membership and every lady took a membership for a boy in the school.
