Negro Star

THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol.14,No.5, ECHOES OF MOTHER AND DAUGHTER WEEK. THE PARABLE OF A PRODIGAL MOTHER. By W. L. Hutcherson. A certain woman had two daughters, and the younger of them said to her mother, give me the portion of thy time, thy attention, and thy companionship and counsel which faleth to me, and she divided with them her assistance in that she paid the girl's bills, sent her to a select preparatory school, and to dancing school and to college, and tried to be levo that she was doing her full duty by the goal. And not many days after, the mother generated all her interests, aspirations and ambitions and took a journey into a far country, into a land of whist parties, dances, social gatherings and other things which do not interest an innocent girl; and then she wasted her precous opportunity of being a chum of her own daughter. And when she had spent the very best of her life and had gained popularity, office and prominence in the social life, of the community, but had failed to find satisfaction on, there arose a mighty famine in her heart, and she began to be in want of sympathy and real companionship. And she went and joined herself to "The League of Woman Voters," of her city; and they elected her chairman of the "Executive Committee," "President," "State Lecturer" and sent her to the "National Convention on." And she would feign have satisfied herself with the job of rn kumble washerwoman, and no one gave unto her any real friendship and joy. But when she came to herself she said, "How many women of my acquaintance have girls whom they understand, and who understand and respect them and who rise up and call their mothers blessed; they talk about their girls, they associate with them and go to church and Sunday School with them, and seem perfectly happy in the company of their girls, and I perish here of heart hunger. I will resign this position and go to my girl, and will say to her, "Daughter, I have neglected thee, and forsaken thee; I am no more worthy to be thy mother; make me as one of thy acquaintances." And so she resigned and came home to her daughter. But when she had gotten out of the taxi, her daughter, seated upon the porch, was moved with astonishment, and instead of running and falling upon her mother's breast, she drew back and spurned her mother. And the mother said unto her, "Daughter, I have neglected and denied thee, I have deserted thee; I am no more worthy of being called thy mother. Forgive me, and let me be your friend." But the daughter said: "Not so. I wish it were possible, but it is too late. There was a time when I wanted your companionship, chaperonage and counsel and to know things but you were too busy. I got the companionship and I got the information, but I got the wrong kind, and now alas! I am wrecked in body, character and soul, there is no more heart left in me; there is nothing you can do for me now. It is too late, too late, too late." Garvey's Propaganda. (By The Associated Negro Press) MILWAUKEE, WIS., May 26. Marcus Garvey, of U. N. I. A. New York, speaking before a news meeting here predicted that the next big war would be between the Japanese and the white race and urged that when the conflict comes the Negroes be prepared to rise all over the world and seize Africa. He declared that a move had been on foot to take the African colonies of the European nations in 1914, but lack of organization prevented accomplishment. WHAT A WORLD! (For the Associated Negro Press) Jack Dempsey trotting a around over the earth begging for some white man to box him, and one outstanding black bower in Dempsey's own country begging to get at Dempsey. Because of this black man back at home, some embarrassing questions must have been asked Dempsey in Europe for he keeps sending back little nervous tablegrams, that he is "willing to box Harry Wills, if....." But the whole procedure seems to stall at the "if." "If" what? If Wills were white and as well qualified as he is Dempsey would have to box him or get out. That's the way we do it in America. We prove our "superiority" to Negroes by never measuring our strength against theirs in a sporty manlike contast. We prove that the Negro "can't" by never letting him try. Providing it seems to victimize only the Negro, we tolerate any im morality from packed juries and disfranchisement to restricted "spelling hees" and "white champions." There is no doubt that Dempsey is a worthy boxer, the oldest title-holder with he sole exception of Jack Johnson, in a generation. But if he does not accept the challenge from Harry Wills, then all the world outside of the dear United States ought regard Wills as the Champion Heavy-Weight Boxer of the World. Herrington. News.

(By The Associated Negro Press) LITTLD ROCK, ARK. May 26. The thirtieth annual convention of the Arkansas Medica, Dental, and Pharmaceutical Association convened here recently at the Congregational Church, on Ninth and State Streets. It was one of the largest and most interesting sessions the organization has had. Dr. Ulysses Grant Dalley, the noted Chicago surgeon, addressed the organization on diseases of the ductless glands. He also conducted daily clinics at the Internal Bush and Royal Circle Hospitals. The citizens were exceedingly grateful and hospitable to the visiting professional men and other guests and the meeting climaxed with a banquet served at Moslac Tempel, Dr. A. H.

In spite of the evitable evidence of the heavy rainfall Sunday afternoon, the guests of Miss Fay Oliver, who were entertained at her sister's (Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Neely) residence, at a lovely dinner, are still declaring that it did not hali, and feel that surely the sun was shining. The point is they had such a delightful time and the cry from Miss Oliver's beaming countenance made the guests feel that the sun was really shining.

Who should not pittergly build a university of music in America than its Negroes, who are the goal of its music? This university of music is located in the beautiful home of Madame Schumann-Mench, at 38th and Michigan Avenue. It is the house in which a great singer lived and rehearsed, and where her sons were born. She has let this beautiful mansion to the music school at a nominal rental, and she herself had the pleasure of attending the opening exercises. On the corner opposite are the palatial residences of the Armours, who built theirs out of hags, while Madame burdied out of music. And it might be observed in passing that while the singer is dedicating her home to the genus of music, the Armours are teering down one of their gawdy palaces to be replaced by a commercial garage. Pauline James Lee, who used to do service with Madame Hachey, is the president of the imposing faculty of this new university and among her teaching force will appear such well-known names as Major N. Clark Smith, Florence Cole Talbert, Clarence Cameron White, and a score of others. They will give instruction not only in all voices and all instruments but also in English dation and foreign languages, in dancing, acting and dramatics, in composition and in music history and pedagogy. The mansion has a beautiful dance and music hall on the third floor. Noted Speakers For The Conference. (By The Associated Negro Press) NEW YORK, N.

(By The Associated Negro Press) CENTERVILLE, ALA., May 26. The $6,000 County Training School for Negroes was dedicated here today by Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, who in a stirring address on Race Relations before the white and colored people of the community, told his audience that the erection of such a building where the white and colored people co-operated, was a very effective and helpful way to bring about, better understanding between the races. Addresses of welcome were delivered by the Honorable H. H. Jones, County Superintendent of Education, Attorney J. T. Fuller, and Mr. W. W. Lavender, Chairman of the County Board of Education, all of whom spoke of the character of the work now being done at the Bibb County Training School under the leadership of Principal Henry D. Davidson, and his wife, who is a graduate of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Moton urged his people to save their money, start bank accounts, buy farms and homes and seek to acquire reputations for honesty, reliability, thrift, and perseverance in their communities. He told the white group that the Negroes of Bibb County believed in them and that they had no better friends among any race than they had among the Negroes of the County. Dr. Moten also told the members of his race that in spite of many conditions that were apparently discouraging, that the race was really making progress which was wonderful and substantial. "Just to think," he said, "less than a century ago our parents were s'aves; today, we are free, we are able to buy homes, buy land, educate our children and are considered an important and helpful group among the citizens of America." Dr. Moton was accompanied by C. J. Calloway, director of the Extension Department, Tuskegee Institute; A. J. Newly, registrar; J. H. Pamer, Field Representative; A. L. Holsey, Secretary and C. L. Webb, Office Stenographers, Tuskegee Institute and A. F. Owens of Selma.

Honor them because God so commanded; honor them because it is our duty; honor them for what they have done for you or My Sake. O that every boy and girl in the city could have been in the congregation and heard this powerful sermon. Three candidates were also baptized. Thus ended a joyful service. Come strangers, you are we'come. St. Paul Notes. Last Sunday being designated as "Fathers' Day," the pastor, Rev. Ransom preached an impressive sermon from the text: "The rock from which you were hewn." The morning service was well attended and many visitors present. The church was pleased to see Mrs. Nichols present again after a severe illness since Easter, and all were g'ad to know she is able to resume her duties as President of the Methodist Missionary Workers. Despite the threatening rain a fair audience attended the evening service and the pastor delivered another interesting discourse on the "Love for Fathers as well as the love for Mother. The Sunday School is preparing for Children's Day, which occurs next month. A lively program is anticipated. Next Sunday the services will be principally memorial Services in honor of the dead veterans of our race in all wars. Special music as well as addresses will we rendered. All are welcome. Sunday morning was opened with Sunday School, studying of King Josiah, leading his people, and how to make the Bible your own. He first went to God himself, then called his people together and read the lost book to them, then they promised to keep God's command. At 11 a.m., the pastor read for a Scripture Lesson Deut. 31:21-27 and St. Matt. 5:17-20 for first and second lessons; subject: "Preserving the Law." Deut. 31:26. The lesson was beautifully explained and a picture was seen from his discussion. At 8:00 p. m., the pastor, Rev. H. H. Edmond opened service by singing, "O for a Faith that will not shrink." Then he gave the echo from the General Conference. We are glad to know that we are connected with a growing church; so many things were said that we did not know, we should all be glad of our pastor, the echoes were so beautifully told until we could only take a lesson that what ever you do, do it with your heart. In the conference there were four bishops elected among whom was Rev. J. A. Hamlet, Editor for the Christian Index, The Star of Kansas who spoke in our City last September, for Dev. H. H. Edmond, we are proud of him a young man who has made a mark in life and leading the people upward, we pray for his success. All who failed to hear the echo from the conference on last Sunday evening missed a treat. Tuesday evening the N. C. Cleaves Literary was well attended and the all-round program was good; everybody did something. Miss Temple Carter recited an appreciated reading. Next Sunday is the third quarterly conference day, Rev. R. P. Tyler, P. E., will be present to hold his meeting Thursday evening, May the 25th.

Grundy came here from St. Louis, Mo., about a year ago and was called to Mt. Olive Church shortly after he came to the city. During his pastorate here, Rev. Grundy did a good work and leaves the church free from all encumberances and a membership, more united than it has been for years. While in our city, Rev. Grundy worked in co-operation with all churches, making many friends, and winning the respect of friend and foe, alike. He (as all good law-abiding citizens) will be greatly missed. We wish for him great success, and may the blessings of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ go with him to his new field of labor. Sunday, May 21st at Ebenezer Baptist Church, Bible School opened at the usual time 9:30 a.m., conducted by Prof. W. E. Gray, Supt., of school. Devotion ied by Bro. William Barnes. The song service by the choir with Mrs. W. E. Gray, organist, was very uplifting all day and in keeping with the text and theme. The pastor, Rev. W. C. Cartwright took his text from Matt. 13:3-8; And He spoke many things unto them in parables, saying, behold a sow went forth to sow; and when he sowed some seed fell by the wayside and the fowls came and devoured them up: some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth; and forthwith they sprang up because they had no deepness of earth; and when the sun came up they were scorched and because they had no root they withered away. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up and choked them: But others fell into good ground and brought forth fruit, some an hundred fold, some sixty fold, some thirty fold. The sermon was inspiratory to all hearers. It showed why some would be lost and why we should not be discouraged at the loss of some efforts. Brethren and Sisters, Jesus Christ has determined that the people should be instructed. There are none lost before he has first been instructed. The sermon also showed that God would not permit those who wished to see Him remain in their blindness; that God's word would make better men and women. It will put down when wrong and lift up when right. The Gospel is the same as it always was, let it find a place for root in your heart. Brethren and Sisters, God, through Christ, will not permit the loss of one who is sincerely wishes salvation. He will justly permit the blindness and ruin of all such as hate instructions. Another lesson was also taught in this able sermon, the lesson of suffering. We must know that there is nothing of any good ever accomplished unless it is accomplished through suffering. We must learn if we would reign in heaven with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, we must suffer with and for Him here upon this earth. After the sermon the following visitors were introduced and expressed themselves as being glad they had come into the house of the Lord: Miss Hazel Stewart of Council Bluff, Iowa; Miss Mae Ward of Omaha, Neb. or Association organized for the health of its members, and to fur- accident or illness, with Physal.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED MICRO PRESS FIRST IN SERVICE READ The Star before you arrive at conclusion. It is the aim of its management to give you facts and not theories on all matters touching the best interests of the race. THE business enterprizes of the race demand much consideration, and may be injured to a vast extent by forces well meaning in their purpose but pressing matters to a hasty conclusion, without due deliberation on all factors and measures involved. THE continued lynching of Negroes in the Southland is to be regretted yet it will continue as long as within the ranks of the race there are leaders who stand out battling for personal honor and money ever forgetting that their race demands an up-ifted voice in its behalf. It takes a man to see a small snake slipping thru the grass and not resolve to strike it across the back due to the good it may do the farmer; so it is with some men who move thru the world with hidden daggers merely roaming about because the men that wou'd strike allow them to live for the possible good they may accomplish others as an outstanding illustration of the low estate possible for a man to reach when swayed by ordinary decreit and envy. FIGHT behind the cover and the world laughs and knows that you fight the other fellow mere'y to benefit your own selfish ends. Meet the issue in the open and the world out of love for a fair fighter will declare that TRUTH must be on your side. Some men go thru life forever crying and creating consternation and confusion without getting anywhere while others with a smile silently go about battling for the interests of the race and making good. Stop knocking and getting your feet steadied for the great racial pull towards success. CHRISTIAN MINISTERS have the individual right as men to hold their own opinion as to what will not work for the ultimate best interests of the race; and they would miserably fail of being MEN if they did not warn the people and cry out if in their opinion any proposition or racial question failed of meeting the program of the CHRISTIAN CHURCH for which they stand out as the acknowledged shepherds; true, at times, they may make mistakes and assume the wrong attitude on a vital proposition but it is well to withhold judgment until a situation is absolutely determined. In all matters, where its is a question of the endorsement or disapproval of a movement by Christian Ministers, it matters not what legal points may be involved but the all vital question's as to whether or not the proposition or movement measures up four square with the sublime tenets of the Christian Church and the best interests of the Race. THE NEGRO STAR is a paper that will ever battle for the race within the race, regardless of men, but keenly devoted to the perpetuation of Christian principles. Never will it resort to unfair competition nor expressions of opinions thru other mediums than its own organ. With a warm regard for the lofty work which the Negro press must do to battle for the success of the race it will assume a harmonious attitude towards all Negro papers and meet all issues in the open free from malice, deceit or biased jealousy. Its staff will ever remember that the intelligent mind of the race demands something more to feast upon than mud pies; hence, it will sling no mud, yet will upon hard and open conviction, will ever rally to the defense of its race and their leaders so long as they stand in the right regardless of where the attack may derive its strength. The Eternal Truth, in all matters, presented to its readers is the purpose of this organ. MEMORIAL DAY with all its fond memories of those who have crossed the bar, that principés might live, is here again, with its muffled drums, draped flags and fragrant flowers. Saddened thoungs move with measured tread, wending their way out, to silent cities of the dead, where sleep the many heroes who have scarf fixed all, that others might continue to struggle on in the blessed assurance that LIBERTY, JUSTICE, and the fundamental principles of HUMAN RIGHTS shall never perish from the hearts of those who strive to bring about the golden era of Christian government awaived by the mighty forces of RIGHT. With honest tears for the warriors dead, and noble heart convictions to ever struggle by the power of the press, and by its fair voice to stand out boldly for the sublime principles and that lofty Americanism for which Black Heroes have gone into the pit of death without a murmur; THE NEGRO STAR, with bowed head and a more firm determination to stand for PRINCIPLES and not MEN, p'are the wreath of appreciative memories upon the grave of AMERICA'S NOBLE DEAD. Asleep on unknown land or flower beddecked der, kept by loving hand and viewed with hallowed reverence, SOLDIER DEAD, your's has been the glorious victory and in death you live on in the sacredness of precious principles of Americanism in all the beauty of the fragrance which they have gained by the force of your fiery struggles and heroic blood freely shed upon the altar of your country. GO to some CHURCH tomorrow merely because you are a part of the world's great mass that stand out respecting the mighty principles which are incubated thru the Christian Church. God desires your presence in His court; your race needs your influence and labor in His House and that secret thrill you had this morning was the angelic voice of a loved one a gory bidding you seek your God and His forces in order that you may serve humanity thru God in this same when your service may be given service lacking in God's program. GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY It is called for leaders the country over would rally to the defense of the noble, tribes and good institutions that count for a more refined and cultured race as readily as they rush to the defense of the measures and institutions which it must have to be elevating to offer and often tend to degrade the race; it would mean more rapid racial progress. MILL. masses the common people of the race the servants and humble workers must have consideration from the leaders of the race in order to insure a race moving in perfect harmony towards a success that will never be certain until the thought rights and feedings of the workers of the race are considered along with the opirions and rights of the more elite circles.

D., has come for a visit here; afterwhich he will visit another son, Geo. Raimey of Topeka. Father Raimey, who has embored incessantly for more than a half century in God's Cause, is one of the most able ministers that ever entered a pulpit, and rightly belongs on a retired list, pensioned by people where he has rendered most of his service during this half century. If a soldier can retire on life-pension, after giving U. S., 30 years of service, why shouldn't an old veteran minister after half century in Christian warfare be retired on life pension? Rev. Chas. O. Marshall, pastor of Mt. Z'on Baptist Church of Ablene, is spending a short visit with his brother H E. Marshall of this city.

Raimey has not returned from his tour through Western Kansas, but is expected soon. Rev. Raimey, during his stay here, more than two years, has never been away from his members for such a lengthy stay, but knowing the efficiency of his officers, he is able to go away and be contented that everything is going on.

Phones: Office, Market 5017 Residence, Doug. 3271R. Nashville, Tenn. Read At The Quarterly Board Meeting At Leavenworth, Kansas By C. M. JOHNSON, President Of Northeastern Dist. B. Y. P. U. Holton, Kansas. There are a great many things that we have to do that we do not like to do. One of these things is to say that there is a dearth in the ministry. I mean by this that there are not many young men at the present time who are willing to give up their lives to God's service and all that that means. Almost every denomination reports that they have a great many churches that are without pastors. One such report that I read stated that the church had over 150 vacant pulpits in one state and that a tota. number of men graduating from the training schools and planning to enter the ministry was only 70. We believe that all will agree that there is a dearth. The thing we want to consider is the WHY? There are three things that I went to menton that are prime causes for this condition. None of these should be but they are and we might just as well admit it and then try to find a remedy for the condition. It doesn't do us any good to deny facts and try to soothe our minds in that way. Men are "called" into the ministry by the Holy Spirit or else they are not called at all. We mean by this that there is no other way in which they can get in and do the work that God would have done excepting that the Holy Spirit calls them. Now we can see men preaching that show very plainly that they do not preach for this reason and they do not have the power of the Holy Spirit in their work. The church would be better off if they were not preaching at all. Now as the why of this question. The first thing that I want to mention is the money question. We will agree that there are not very many men in the ministry because of the wages paid in cash. Some are working faithfully because the wages cannot be measured in dollars and cents. These men should be honored and revered for their faithfulness and honesty with God. Probably there is not a man preaching but what could make more money at some other work. We must all admit that the minister gets a smaller salary than the school teacher and they are known as a very poorly paid class. We do not think that the minister should make the money the prime considerat on in his "call" but we do rather think this: That the church should take up this matter for him and see to it that he has enough money to keep his family in proper condition and pay all of his debts and also have a little extra to put aside for that proverbial rainy day that is almost sure to come. Let the people pay an honest t the on all their income and we know that the preacher will get a better wage and just as soon as the wages are sufficient to give the proper support to the minister's family, I am sure that there will be more men willing to put themselves into the work but it is too much to ask them to put themsevea in and then to do without money. The next reason that I want to mention is this: There is a great move in the world today towards the materialistic. Men are openly denying the cardinal truths that the Bible contains, for example. The Infallibility of the Scriptures is denied by many, The Deity of Christ, His Virgin birth, His miracle working life, His resurrection and ascension. All these are all discredited by many in the present churches. There must be a returning to the Bible and the truths contained in the teachings that can be found nowhere else. There was a time in history when everyone accepted all of the teachings contained in the Bible. When every man accepted all of the Ten Commandments as truth but that day has passed and now man accepts only that which he wants. For some reason man has a desire to do away with everything that has to do with the vicarious suffering of the Christ and even the great creation work of Him. When men get back to real truths of the Bible, there will be more men truly ceded into the preaching of the Word. We can depend upon it, that when men return that there will be a great revival of religion and just as sure as there is a revival there will be increase in the ministry. To minister means to serve and a man has no desire to serve except he has the true love of God in his heart. And this last paragraph brings me to the third reason I want to ment on. The boy brought up in the present day home, does not have the incentive of true service held up before him. In early history of the U. S., almost every family had a family aitar set up in the home and each morning the father read from the Holy Word of Silk In all the Summer's desired high shades.

Downstairs. God and then all the family kneed and everyone in the circle offered a prayer to God for guidance through the day. I wonder how many altars we could find today. This is the our great thing that will bring about that much desired revival. The word of God is able to convert men and will do just that but we must read it and not only read it but must understand what we read. We are inclined in the present day to avoid all this as if it were something to be afraid of. Many men are groping in darkness because they do not read God's Word. "It is a lamp unto my feet." Every one knows that but they seem not to care for the sight. When the family gets to using the Word as a guide there will be a generation of boys that will be willing to get into the work and there will also be a generation of people on earth that will be willing to pay their faithful servants for their labors and then all of these things will be different. When this comes, we will see a great many things that we do not now see and a great many things that we now see we will not see. Devoe Paint is guaranteed to go further; last longer; looks better and costs less for the job than any other paint. Come in and talk to us before you paint your house. The condition of things now is such that a man will hardly speak to his neighbor about the love of God for fear that the neighbor will think him "uneducated." I want to say right here, that the man who is really educated, is the one who knows what God says through His Word. There is no other source of knowledge. Let us all seek God and follow the plan that He has outlined for us to follow. Then, and only then will we be able to see the ministry supplied with faithful men. Men who are willing to serve, Men who are not ashamed of not care for the sneers of men. Let us pray to God who hears and answers prayers that He will send forth laborers for the harvest. B. Y. P. U.
