THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE
General Perishing Breaks Out Against Mob Violence.
Written For The Star By W. L. Hutcherson
Delegate from Kansas To Fourth National Convention, New Orleans, La.
"The American Legion is the cradle for the whole future of America," raid Hanford "Jack" McNider retiring National Commander. The Legion is here to stay and has taken its place as a national institution. The Legion is taking high grounds and advanced strides as an Inter-racial factor. This was evidenced by the presence, at the National Convention of Colored Delegates, representing ten states, including two from Tennessee. These delegates had been elected in their respective state Con-
ventions; and therefore, expressed the sentiment of the attitude of the White Service man towards his black comrade in arms. The expressions of three Colored Delegates are paid by their State Departments. The Georgia Delegation objected to seating those State Delegations raving Negroes, but this was over ruled by the Committee on Credentials, altho' there were Southern men on the Committee. The Colored delegates sat with their respective States in the Convention, and rode to, and from New Orleans, on the special cars and trains. The New Orleans Convention Committee was very liberal in supplying funds for the entertainment of the colored delegates.
Tennessee has twelve active colored post, and for three years, have had a colored man in the State Executive Committee. At present only six states states hold out in refusing charter to Negro Service men. With the election of a very high type Souhern man as national commander, these six states will fall in line.
Time and again the Legion Representatives spoke out against mob violence in all its forms. However the most emyhatic statement was from the Commander-in-chief of the A. E. F., General John G. Pershing who said, "The mobs who take the law in their hands and go out to, punish offenders are more harmful to society then the criminal they seek.
I appeal to the Negro service man in those States granting charters, to go into the Legion, and do effective service and thereby influence these States that hold out and refuse to grant the colored Service men the right to organize. And to the negro neels the cntac andnincfueel rnl.crella needs the contact and influence of the Legion.

Post Office Regulation Against Game
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 27—Approach of the hunting season has prompted the Post Office Department to issue instructions today regarding the shipment of the bodies of game animals and birds through the mails. The regulations prohibit the acceptance for mailing of any parcels of this sort where the game has been killed or offered for shipment in violation of the laws of any state, territory or district. In cases of the sending of bodies of game animals and birds lawfully the packages must be properly marked and conform to all local statues. Postmasters are cautioned to see that these rules are observed throughout the husting season.
The Rock Island Assured Fair Play
BIRMNGIIAM ALA. Oct. 27 "Fair Play" is beginning to be asserted by some of the railroads operating through the South. The Rock Island Road is one of the first, however, to give public utterance, through an official to its intentions in this direction.
A complaint was lodged with the company by Dr. Ulysses G. Mason, the Supreme Medical Director of the Knights of Pythias organization. The complaint was delivered to T. R. Beacon, vice president and manager of the Rock Island System by letter that stated the circumstances of ill treatment by a conductor on a train from Hot Springs a short distance out of Little Rock, Arkassas. The lettr stated that the conductor remorristated with Dr. Mason about the occupancy of a seat which he contended was his particular seat. Other seats near being vacant the doctor refused to give up the place where he had been sitting.
Tabernacle Baptist
Sunday was high day st Tabernacle services were well attended. The Holy Ghost met with each services.
Our revival was quite a blessing to us. Eleven accessions: four converts and wt are proul of Rev. J. R. Roman, who so ably assisted us in thur great meeting. He and his good people of Eldorado, can do to depend.
Mry God bless them ever.
We are also grateful to Pastor Hays and his good people for standing so close by us and working for Salvation of men.

Must Save Tennessee..
(By The Associated Negro Press.) WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 27—The Republican leaders are contemplating an invasion of the South on a big sale. Efforts are to be made to hold Tennessee in line, thus preserving a notable Harding victory in breaking the Sold South.
NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 27—Over in the Cherry Hill District there is a row of tenement houses occupied most by colored folk. From the street a reporter could see into the front room of one home. There was no carpet on the floor, pictures on the wall or a single bit of furniture except a play-piano, which was running full tilt. The white janitor said the family had stripped their home to make the first payment on that play-piano. "These folks will deny themselves every comfort for music," he added.

AN APPEAL TO NEGRO VOTERS.
BY MRS. L. T. WADLEY
Giving to be a battle, on the 7th of November,
Going to be a battle, we will all remember;
A rustling to the polls with voting on your mind,
Get busy Negroes or you will get behind!
Kansas, Oh Kansas! You seem so dear,
We love your candidates, we give them good cheer;
You have fought and died to make my people free,
And now we give to you our loyalty!
I appeal to the Colored Voters of my race,
To be a Republican with a smiling face;
Don't sell our rights for a Dollar or Two.
Remember your boys are watching you.
Be a man! My race, wherever you go,
And don't come back 'till the war is o'er;
Go into the field to die for the rihtt.
Remember, Negroes this is our fight.
It makes one think of the famous J. Brown!
When he marched thru these Kansas town;
He said; the Negroes have a right to vote.
We will win this fight so don't loose hope!
So remember candidates and bear in mind,
A true Republican is hard to find;
And, if my race proves loyal and true,
Don't you forget we are watching you.
For Black complexions and fleecy locks,
Cannot forfeit nature's claims;
Skins may differ, but affections.
Dwell in Black and White the same.
Read at the Republican Mass Meeting last Monday Evening
at the Grant Memorial Church.
A Proclamation
---
The fourteenth of November marks the seventh year of our late Dr. Booker T. Washington's departure from his earthly home to begin serving his "sentence" in glorious eternity.
His life was one unselfish service, and he apparently cared not where nor to whom the service was to be rendered, just so he was serving humanity and the world. In this service to and for humanity he strove arduously to close the chasm of estrangement wherever it existed, which undoubtedly was occasioned by a gross lack of understanding. So it, apparently, was his prodigious task (which some of us think hurried him to an untimely cessation) of interpreting the Negro to the white man.
Through his untiring efforts not only was the greatest institu-
tion in the world for the most
trical raising of youth built up,
but his life his logical messages
the world have been of im-
massurable value to the world in
the solution of many seemingly
unfatnomable problems.
burn Fort, 1120 E. 13th St. on Hallowe'en night, Oct. 31.
A fine time will be spent with such preparations.
Our subject for bible study last week was "Prayer," found in St. Luke, the 11:1—13. The lesson was taken up with much interest. Just before closing the meeting the boys each led in a sentence prayer.
The boys are practicing on a play that they are going to give soon in benefit of their gym.
The club is open for membels at our meetings every Wednesday night from 7 to 8 o-clock.

Since, it is true ahd a recognized fact that he was a little more than a man as compared with the world standard; since his life was lived for all and extinguished by his wonderful struggles for all. I, Emory M. Barnes, Pres. of the Wichita Tuskegee Club, therefore set a part Fridav. Nov Seventeenth as memorial day, which shall culminate in a fitting program that evening in memory of that great character.
I further urge everybody of all races, who can find it possible to think of Dr. Washington, his great works, and pray for the continuity of the same on this day Friday, Nov. 17, and on that evening turn out in large numbers to hear what shall be said and see what shall be done in his honor.
Place and program will be announced later.
Yours as a disciple of Dr. Washington's.

Junction City News.
Mrs Jerome Graves, who has been confined to her bed for several weeks, is slowly recovering, and her neice, Miss Minnie McGee, who has been at her bed-side, has returned to her home in Kansas City.
Mr. P. J. Johnson of Knoxville, Tenn., is here visiting his sister-in-law Mrs. Wm. Walker at her home, 539 W. 4th St.
Rev. G. T. Raimey was in Topeka on Thursday and Friday of last week, attending the Regent Board of Baptist Theological Seminary, the Farmers' Conference and the Dedication of the Hospital of the Theological Institution and reports a very swell affair and fine time. We do hope that more ministers of this district will catch the "Spirit" and attend these meetings to get inspiration that can be gotten no place else.
Mrs. Sgt. Herd is confined to her home with a severe of illness.
The Ladies' Reading and Art Club, which was organized sometime ago, seems to be progressing nicely, holding their meetings weekly and trying to do something for the betterment of the community. Trey meet on next Thursday at Mrs. Ralp Davis', 409 W. 13th St.
The Junction City High School has a stalwart team this year winning most of their games so far. Proud to say, the star of the team, who seems to get most credit for their good efforts, is one of our own boys, and the only one on the train. Theodore Grey.
The Second Baptist Church, 10th and Clay Sts., of which Rev. G. T. Ralney is pastor held its usual service on Sunday, Oct. 22, the pastor delivering two inspiring sermons. His morning text was found Matt. 21:3 and the evening text, Exudus 4:2. The W. H. and F. M. rendered a short but good program in the afternoon and the B. Y. P. U. also produced a splendid program in connection with their lesson.
The writer had, (I would like to say pleasure, but can only say) opportunity, and a very sad opportunity, of visiting another church in this district, and I know that the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, looked down upon this meeting with a heavy and sad heart, dear Christain readers, if I dared relate to you in these columns, what transpired at this meeting, you would do as Nehemiah did, when he recieved reports of the children of Israel, sit down and weep and mourn and attempt to pray for these people as Nehemiah prayed for the Israelites (Neh. 1:5-11). O, but the day would come when Christians will be Christians, and if they can't be Christians, get back into the world, and not false pretend and mingle with Christians, thereby hindering God's cause, by making sinners believe that they (sinners) are as good as Christians.
Dr. Fenton N. Goodson a well known physician of this city is on the sick list.

Live Wire Republican
. Meeting.
Last tuesday night with the high
spirited Rev, B. C, Ransavalona act:
ing as Master of Ceremonies, a real
enthusatic mass meeting was opened
at the Masonic Hall. Senator Stew:
art, chairman of the County Commit-
tee, was first introduced and spoke
with supreme reasoning in behalf of
the Republican party. He said: “No
oye has seen a Democratic platform
he sent for it, but they said we mean
to appeal a.] obnoxious laws, who
knows what they eall obnoxious laws;
It may be against my race or it may
be against your race.” With # little
fan well rounded cold facts Rev. Ran-
navalona introduced Chester Conner,
canidate for sheriff. He said “No
prisoner shall be taken from the jail
while he is sheriff.” Mr, McGlynn,
the next clerk of theDistrict Court

orders as deputy and Assistant clerk,
Mr. Hancock promises fairness to all.
Mr. Hiner, thinks our race has a deep

cited Burn’s noted poem. Thinks that

nothing but a square deal to 148 Ne-
gro Children. Mr, W. A. Bettis was
applaused much for his fre and well

ed of waiting to get our reward in
‘heaven and hearing you say: the sen-
timents are against you holding an
office, We are going to elect Mr. Bird
for Congress, but don't come giving
us this salve; if you don't mean it.
Mr. Martin R. Powell the real
speaker of the occasion was introduc.
ed by Mr, Bettis and he interpreted
the Democratic platform to mean
everything free but the Negro. He
congratulated himself for being in
the home-town of Gov. Allen and
spoke of his great industrial court
that kept Kansss from being cold
when all the other states were shiver-
ing. Truthfully he said: “Sometime

Be fair? what has the party given to enable one to be fair considering its campaign? There has not been an hour in history of Democratic success, which has not been marked with some over act of a Dime adherent against the best interests of the Colored People; BE FAIR?

All day Sunday there were wonder-
ful services in Zion,
Sunday morning a lovely Sunday
School service was enjoyed. , Sunday
evening « beantifal B. Y. P. U. ser-
vice was had.
Sunday morning our assistant pas-
tor, Rev. J. F. Green, who has preach-
ed a number of years, perhaps thirty
years or more, preached a stirring
sermon ‘from Isaiah 21:31: “Set thy
House in Order for thou shal] not
five.”
In those days medical services had
not progressed so, and there were a
number of diseases which one con-
tracted were fatal to the subject. Two
such diseases were leporsy and the
cowbuncle, -
In this case the subject had the cow-
buncle and naturally, wes doomed to
die, but he was interested in rebuild-
ing the walls, stablizing and reeata-
biishing his country. This matter lay
heavily on his heart and was the pri-
mary objective of his latter life. He
wes absorbed in this one endeavor. It
was his life. Then came the message
“Set thy house in order for thou shalt
‘net live.”
, He prayed to God that Me give him
\a little longer lease on life and told
God his ebjective. His prayer was
answered. His life was lengthened
fifteen years.
Sunday Evening our pastor, Rev, J
W. Hayes, who had spent the week in
Topeka assistng Rev. Young in revi-
val, returned, He preached a Gospel
sermon from S&. John 20:24; “But
Thomas one of the twelve, calieg Diti-
mus was not present when Jesus
came.”
We were shown as never before
the importance of one’s presence at
times when by bis presence he may
receive a biessing he otherwise should
not receive. There comes a psycho-
logical moment when God so mani-
fested himself that in ones absence
is inestimable and invaluable toas,
Thomas, who bad been associated with
the Lord by his absence at an appor-
tune time missed a glorious manifes-
itation. q
There were some destinguished
visitors whore presence in our ser-
viee was appreciated highly,
