LOGANSPORT TOWNSHIP CONVENTION. LOGANSPORT TOWNSHIP CONVENTION. FRIEND, KANSAS, JAN 10, 1923. On Sunday, Jan. 7, the Logansport Township Sunday School Conventio held its first quarterly session at Oakley. The weather was ideal. All representatives of the schools were present. In the morning the Sunday School, preaching services and testimony meeting were very interesting. All were glad to greet Oakley, and meet in their new church building, for which they deserve unlimited praise. We also had a soul stirring sermon by Rev. M. S. Jones, District Missionary. At noon a bountiful dinner was spread and enjoyed by all. During the Children's Hour, following the afternoon service, we listened to some very pretty songs as well as dialogues and recitations. The Discussion, "The Importance of the Sunday School in a community;" was led with a very thoughtful and pointed speech by Deacon J. J. Clark, being followed by Revs. Douglass, M. S. Jones and Miss Annie Williams. The main thought was of the benefit to the young and thus later benefit to the community. The session was one of unison, manifest interest and good feeling toward one another. Matt. G. Jones, reporter. ALL ABOARD!

Fourth Stop Mrs. L Web- The Older Boys' And Girls Conference And Wichita S. S. Asso'n Rally, Jan. 16 "That They All May Be One," was a part of the Great High Priestly Priester of Jesus. In spite of opinions to the contrary, a very fine Christian fellowship is being built up here in Wichita, and was exhibited at the Older Boys' and Girls' Conference, where nine of our young folks had been welcomed as delegates and at the Sunday School Rally, where twenty-four representatives from our Sunday Schools were gathered with five hundred Sunday School leaders of the city. The Message was delivered by Dr. Kurtz, president of McPherson College. He emphasized the Need of Christian Education. ARE YOU AWARE? That when the inlet to a body of water becomes greater than the outlet, the results is an overflow How ever there are some "bodies" whose outlets are greater than their inlets. What are the results in the latter? That people generally feel congratulated when their peculiar pet sins are not touched by the preacher? They glory in pointing out sister or brother So-and-So, whose pet sin was touched. How are you about it? That life in the first place is largely dependent upon what you do for it? In the second place your life is greatly influenced by what the individual who poses as your friend does for you. It is the little things that count most. Just an example: Supose your name was Miss Jackson or Miss Johnson or Miss Green or even Miss Harris and you were proposed to by some fellow from any direction, even from the "West," such little kindnesses as escorting you to and from school no matter how long a time you were detained, would make you feel proud of the "Western" region, that he was trying to make it pleasant for you. That there is better relations existing between the races in Wichita than most of the cities of the U. S. This is brought about thru the wonderful doings of that great leader of the Water Street "Y." He is unquestionably one of the greatest leaders in his line. That Spring is just over the hill? What about the "Y" building Campaign? Sparks From The Mission Fields Of Southwest. That we are not dead, but liveth and incessantly at work for the Master's cause and the advancement of our Redeemer's Kingdom on the earth. By to preach at Dodge City, Hugoton and ple; the humble writer has been called preach at Dodge City, Hugoton and Jetmore,—to some it would seem an ardent task, but God has smiled gloriously upon the preacher as well as the people and light seems to be luminous on all sides with the cheering hope of victory and a glorious future for the Baptist. The Church puzzle has been solved or so near it, that the field has been won for the Baptist for the future against powerful opposition. The church building sits on the East side; the interior finished by the efforts of the Sisters' Band of Willing Workers—going on in the building in peace and harmony. At. Jetmore.

WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Jan. 19, 1923. A GREAT REVIVAL AND A GREAT HARVEST. THE COURT OF THE UNION A Hard Battle With Efficient Generals Brought Victory. Calvary Baptist Church has been the battle ground for a victorious war conflict for Jesus. Jesus won and established Himself in the hearts of many, while His Holy war was in its hottest array many old soldiers renewed their covenant and showed signs of true soldiers in the army. Dr. J. W. Hayes has been fortifying the the place with long rangers for a number of Sundays and the Calvary Soldiers took on special drill work for a week and last Sunday they staged the battle in the name of Jesus and won for Him. Rev J. E. Jeltz and the choir proved to be powerful, scattering melodious strains of Gospel in the darkest stages of the far conflict but it cheered the soldiers and brought ease to the wounded and healed forever. God works in mysterious ways, is proved by the appearance of Dr. R M. Gilbert of Ann Arbor, Mich., with burning messages; set fire to all mines laid by pastor Hayes, which blew the devil back off of God's territory. Dr. Gilbert, though young in years. shaw, our popular school teacher ably assisting with the work. The dreams are about to be accomplished, through the efforts of the pastor and that long sighted financier, Deacon R. L. Dennie led on by the active Board of trustees, we have made a deal with the officers of the White M. E. Church and will, when paid for have a building worth $2500.00 all the furniture in tact—a marvel to the age. The cheering letter of Dr. J. H. Van Leu coming to our rescue just at this time brings gladness and cheer to every heart. The Theatre building has been secured for the fourth Sunday for a program of no small importance to raise means to carry on the work that day. Hugoton will know no segregation of the races for religion, talent, song and menu, will mingle as one. Sister R. L. Dennie is suddenly called to Lawrence on account of the death of her mother Mrs. C. H. Graves. We are praying for the stroke to fall light on the hearts of her beloved children. Rev, S. M. Smothers is called to the bed side of Comrade McCormick at Garden City, who is reported dyeing. The National Thrift One of the most effective educational idea being put over during the year is the "Thrift Week Observation." The first meeting was held at proved himself as a great Evangelist, filled with zeal knowledge and love for great things for the Kingdom. His sermons were logical and impressive. A great plea for man and womanhood. These great pleas found the real steel in many. Wichita, will be singing the praises of this great minister of the Gospel and will watch with interest his future, which is thought will be great. The attendance holds up every night. They caught the news of the first great sermon of the "Prodigal Son" which was the master-piece, followed Monday night with the "Unpardonable Sin," followed Tuesday night with "The Evils of Dancing," followed Wednesday night with a pictural sermon "Changes of Life," and "Right time to Accept Jesus," followed Thursday night with "Eternity." He made gains for the Master in every battle; because he was so vigilantly assisted by the brave soldiers of Calvary and all the other churches of the city. The fight is on and right is prevailing thus far. Green's Drug Store on Wednesday, when Mr. E. L. Davison, President of the Commercial Bank, spoke on "The Moral Value of a Bank Account." Twenty-eight men were present. The outstanding meeting will be the one on "Christian Stewardship." on Sunday, Jan. 21, at 3 p.m. at Calvary Baptist Church. Hon. W. C. Coleman, Mayor of Wichita, will speak. A great message is in store. New And Better We point with pride to the beautiful and newly furnished tailoring establishment of Jordan & Carter, now located on the corner of Elm and N. Main Sts. This place looks like business and it is really business; first-class business that should demand patronage from all Race lovers and Race developers. They are promising to give you a clean and clear cut service. Will you give them a trial? I know you will. Watch them grow. Lastt Sunday night at the close of the evening service at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Chicago, Rev. C. M. Tanner, the pastor, received the sad news of the death of his father. Rt. Rev. B. T Tanner, the noted scholar, editor and Bishop of the A. M. E. Church.

L= ONTO REALMS OF DEEP- EST THOUGHT by the deter- mined efforts of thousands of under- paid colored school teachers thruout the country, thousands of children of the race are preparing to shoulder the responsibilities held out by an uncere tain social end, politcal future facing the race in the Umited States. Un the shoulders of the race now in training will rest the success or failure of the race within the next three decades, and much will depend upon the train- ing they are receiving todty aa to how that future will be determined. The demand of the age then is for ‘well prepared school teachers in all sections of the country, equipped, mentally, physically- and spiritually, to assume the gigantic problems of fitting the race for its greater re- sponsibility ss a competing factor against all races, The race has thousends of just such teachers in every, hamlet and village thruout the entire country, and yet there Is one thing yet lacking. Colored teachera never will be in position to give the best that they have to the youth of the race until there is a spirit of ac- tive co-operation with the teachers genuine co-operation that will support the entire effort of the indi- vidual teachers of the race to produce results in the school room by asser- tion of firm authority, It is far bet~ ter that corrective methods be left to the teackers of this age rather than ‘that the race be compelled to suffer due to lack of discipline having been instilled in the child early in the school life., Refusal to express ad- versed opinions concerning teachers of the race in the presence of pupils of the forces criticized. Massed ef- forts of the race by the power of the ballot to secure adequate pay for the colored teachers of the country, More assistance to the teccher by the pare ent in the home hfe of the child with full attention to home corrective measures, study hours, and concentra- tion of mental energy, The teachers eannot produce the goods for the race | without the loyal support of the par- || ents along the lines suggested, and such support they will produce Ne- gtoes who will overcome racial pre- || judice, conditions of environments, |. poverty, hardships and that sort of! thing, and climbing to the highest |’ peak of success TELL THE WORLD THAT THE NEGRO JS A FACTOR TO BE CONSIDERED IN THE} GAME, One of the greatest curses of the present age is the growing trend of the rece to produce spoiled |) children, No race can rest assured of || future racial success fn which the] masses of its young life are developed in accord with what it may ask for end what it may desire in the game of hfe irregardless of the wise judg. | ment of the parents. A strong race {s a race that gives marked attention to ith child life, making the pleasures of its posterity secondary to the de-|_ termined development of habits of general thrift and work, tempered Bo ae Bing age ae A LAS! THE TRUTH IS OUT, in 4h sa recent editorial of a local contemporary IMPERIAL WIZARD CLARKE of the Ku Klux Klan, and arch pal of His Royal Highness, His Satenie Majesty, THE EVIL ONE, is quoted as saying, “He wants to take all Catholics and form a World Ku Klux Klan to be composed only of WHITE PEOPLE.” Such a state- ment coming from the officiel head of an organization which has challenged the decency of modern civilization, but indicated the ultimate intent of the Klan which was nothing more nor Jess than to Install fear of the organ- ization into the wh.te,race, and thus well ita membership until it has de- veloped, strength to support a move- ment to disrupt the American Repub- lic, Restore the‘ Southern Confedera- ey, and produce BLACK FREE LA- BOR eto again develop a dying civ. ilization. Will it be able to do so? NO!NO!M NOM! Yet it is appalling when all signs of the time point to a determined intent on the part of fac- tors absolutely bent upon the entire destruction of the future social, eco- nomic, and pol'tice! status of the race to still find forces within the race race capable of exerting vast pres- sure in the right direction to enable the race to overcome such developing circumstances merely standing in the way of racial progress endcavoring to dictate or ruin, The time has come when the American Negro must es- tablish a firm and safe leedership, and learn tho entire lesson of “FOL- LOW THE LEADER.” This age is calling for racial harmony, racial support of its leaders all of which must be divorced from the smalt term ideas of petty individual envy of success attained by others.

We thé members of the St. Mary Bapt’st Church are very thankful to God for the very satisfactory serric- es on last Sunday, The Lord scems to be guiding us at these first Sun- day services in this new year and we give Him the credit. Our Sunday School is doing a fair work under Mr, A, W. Washington ag Supt, and Mrs. Rosle Baker, Assis. ‘tant Supt. New pupils are coming fn each Sunday, Our pastor chose for a text at 11:00 “God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” Ist Peter 5:6, Among the things the minister sald was, that Jesus took His’ reli- gion to a dinner party with Him in- stead of leaving it at home as do some of us; bat he said he who haa learned the Master's secret can go anywhere, Think of who you are and in whose company you are. Our B. ¥. P. U. sesson was very interesting; {t seems that our good people are awaking to the sense of their duty. God is blessing us. The blackboard exhibit by Prof. J. A. Jackson was well done, and the pro- gram in general was very fair; At the close of the B. Y. P, U., session a surprise committee of the members of the church came forwerd, and with a short address delivered by Mrs, J. D. ‘Wilson, was followed with a beautiful overcoat presented in behalf of the committee, endorsed by many of the loyal members of the church, and the $600 cash taken, more than the coet cost were presented by Mrs, Ernest Lewis of the rommittes. Then you should have seen the minister's eyes large—larger. of course than I had seen them; and he fhanked and thank. ed and he is not through yet. Afterwhich tho pastor chose for his text Deut, 32:11-12; “So the Lord Alone did Lead Him, and there was no Strange God With Him.” Had three to join our forces in the Lord's mame and we are praying for all mankind, Come out and be with us. —_—s———.

We tre forced to commend thes good wo- men for the work they are doing In Kingdom Building.
