Mr. B. V. Edworthy And Mr. L. A. Black Were Speakers. AND URGE MEN TO BE _ LOYAL TO THE BOYS. Mr. W. L, Hutcherson came to thi city about fifteen months ago an during this time has worked faithful ly with the boys and young men o! the community, He ioves the boy: and has endeared himself Into theis heegts. Comparatively few of the men have given their time and service in interest of the Y. M. C. A. It may be cue to the fact that a thorough understanding of the work tas no! been made clear to them, and for that reason ¢, act’es of lectures have been arranged whereby a greater knovl- edge of the work can be had, with the hope of stimu ating an interest on the part of the men who have not felt the responsbility of the Y. M. C. A. and to renew the interest In the men wh3 ate xlready faithfully working with the boys. e The first two lectures of the series were given ‘ast Sunday afternoon at the Calvary Baptst Church. A lerge end apprec’ative audience listened to Mr, L. A. Black. general secretary of the Centred Branch discuss: “The Fu- ture of the Work of the LocaivY. M. GA” is We had the pleasure of hearing Mr. +B. V.2Edworthy, Boys’ Work Secre- tary of Kansans, speahing on “Rela- t'onships and Responsib.l ties”, Both men spoke creditrbly of the work of the colored boys throughout the state and commended the Hi-Y boys of Wiihitas and the executive secretary's work. A p’ea was made for the men and cittzeng of this city to carry out their obligations end maintain the confidence of the Central organiza- ton. At the same time assuring all tat when their whole duty had been performed that a building wou'd be erected for the young men of Wichits. The success or failure of which re-ts wholly upon the shouldering of the individual responsibi.ity of every 1nen in the eity. Co-operation is an ab- solute necessity and the sympathetic state for self preservation has pexsed. Mr, L, A. Blak, general secretary of the Central Y. M. C. A., was intro- duced and gave heart to heart talk on “The Future of the Local Work of Wichita.” The future of the Y, M. C. A. de- pends upon our present leadership. If we are to be assured of a successful victory, we must discharge our duty now, First, what does the Y, M. C, A. meen to Wichita? It Is really at- tempting to carry out a definite pro: gram and we are doing some of the things that need ta be done with our present limitations. Do rot think for once that the work of the Water 5t., Branch is different er zeperate from thet of the Central, but think of the work as a onenest,, Many do not feet that they are a parf of the great whole but something s«perate,—this idea ig fundanentelly wrong. The work has been drvided ints grevps and section in ordtr to reach all of the boys and young men of ths e mmuni- ty and al are a prry of the great whole, This fs the view of the work that mvet be taken or we wil] never «et anywhere, V'e have seen the resu.t of the phy- sical and educations} activities of the “Y" up our boys and young men and we have proven by our, program that much can be done for thu neg- lected men In the offices and shops, who attend our clesses after work hours In order to gain a knowledge of which they were deprived in early years. Then we have the boys’ work de- partment, and boys who are not mem- bers of the Association can come and enjoy the priviledges of the Y, M. C. Rev, J. R. Ransom I Goes To Topeka. | Rev. J. R. Ransom for five years pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church had been assigned to Topeka, by Bish. op H, B, Perks at the close of the conference, which convened -in Law- tenve, ast week. It tg regretted that Star loses the support of sucha strong factor in the community, Rev. King. former pastor of St. Paul, an ardent Ctristicn gentlemen succeeds Rev. Rensom and wil occupy the pul- pit Sunday morning at eleven o'clock, The’ Star extends the new assigned pastor a hearty welcome. jA. We arg also doing something for [the young men of the two colleges cf the city, and a program has been pat on for the del nquent boys and young nen of the North end. | What has been done for the Color- ei Fitnch you krew ee tlould know Jor should know better than I. You know what effect !t has had on the sold’er group and the industrial men, who kave taken advantage of the privileges recorded them at the “Y.” ‘There haa been a ‘arger demand on the part of the churckes ta put on # lerger program and when th’s ig done we will funct’on together on a larger seele, Your Y. M. C. A. has received a budget fn proportion os any other Y. M. C, A. and co-operation on your part is vital y essential. You togeth- er with the Central organizttion have assumed @ respons‘bility and each has a work to do and an obligation to meet. . » The Centre! organization hag al- ready exceeded {ts promise and gone beyond fts quote, whl e you have fall. tn short of your pledge and have not raised your quota (a shortage of fif- ty dollers). Do not expect the association to kecb up thelr end wen you continue to log and fait in your ob igations. - It 8 not money so much, but the sonttiznee we must build up in one an- other, Tts day passed when you should expect sympathy from the white man, Yeu must first to suruibirg for your: selves and shouller your own respon- yicitie: They by your wiWingnes ts do you will feercese the vontiderc sé the assocteti.y wd t y wil be sore willing &) nem sou I will agree w-, you that the Wa- ter Street Branch fg inadquate and so 8 the Central Association, But I woud rather har.

Powell among our best men jn racial uplift, He writes: I send this $1 to grease the wheel, and kindly ask you to send me 12 copies of the Negro Sttr and 5 copies ta Rev.,J. H. Horton of Fart Arkansas. Rev. Powell recent'y conducted a revival in Arkansas and many souls were saved. to the men of Wichita, and recited fact after fact, giving reasons why the men tnd the citizens in general should rally to ~he support of the io- cal branch, In the most pralsexorthy manner, the speaker commended the untirinz efforts of Mr, Hutcherson and the men who have so ioyally supported him, and took great pride in resding from his dary the names of tre boys of Kansas. who have made good in the Y. M. C. A. work among them were Mr, Earl Back, Aaron Green of Tope- he, and R. B, DeFrantz. He told the interesting story of Aaron Green, when 4 lad in school.” Aaron was not over y brilliant and one morning ex- pressed a fear of not passing the ex- aminction, a white girl, had worked the problems and sald to him, “Take this and copy it and you will pass, ‘but Aaron repiied: “I belong to the HLY Club, I cannot do that.” To day Aeron Green is the secre- tary of the Y. M. C. A. work at Tope- ka, and the most potent factor in the ‘community. He was instrumental in the raising of the $2000 budget for the ¥. M.G. A. Tt fs the colored Hi-Y boys of To- reka, thet set the stendard for the boys of the city.” , | The Contin-ntial Divide, Mr, Edworthy compared the life of the boy with great Cont’nnental Di- sie and pointing to the Hi-Y boy, sald: “These boys are Ilving monu- | cents of the work of the Y. hi.

Attorney for Plaintiff Attest:—(Seal) FRED BURRIS, Clerk of the District Court. The Negro Must Help Himself. The many truths that brought the audience of the Y. M. C. A. Mass Meeting face to face with fact last Sunday afternoon by Mr. Black and Mr. Edworthy are undeniable. Truly the day has passed when the Negro can hope to get anywhere on sympathy. The World owes you nothing, because you happened to be borned a Negro but it is willing for you to make a place for yoursef and those that are to come after you. The thinking Negro knows and does not ask for sympathy—He does not writ it and is becoming impatient with those of the race who do. Prayers and sympathy yell'd no profitable results. Work and prayer harvest the golden grain. If we are to gain and maintain the respect of the white race we must prove that the rich, red, potent blood is in our veins and that we are capable of producing and achieving results. If Wichita is to have a modern equipped Y. M. C. A., replace the present inadequate one then the Negroes of Wichita must convince the Central Y. M. C. A. and National Headquarters that we need one. This means work tireless work. Mr. John Dixon Win Second Prize At Fair. Mr. John Dixon, 1020 South Mead, won second prize at the Hutchison Fair, last Wednesday in the beauty horse contest.
