CARTWRIGHT, Moderator, MRS CORAL JAMES, Corresponding S RESOLUTIONS Continued from last issue) FROM NEW HOPE BAPTIST CH. God our Heavenly Father, into whose hands we entrust all:—He giveth and He taketh away; has laid a heavy hand upon us in the removal of our Dearly Beloved Pastor, Rev. E. T. Fishback, in the critical hour of a great work; and. Whereas, We the members of the New Hope Baptist Church so deeply deplore the loss of him as a Pastor, being one of the most intellectual and spiritual giants of our Denomination, interested in the Kingdom Work, strong in mind, pure in heart, wise in council, prayerfully giving the best in all the affairs of the Church, State and Nation; and, Whereas, He will be greatly missel, his place hard to fill, having lived, loved, and labored with us undauntingly and hopefully for the past 14 years, endeard himself into the hearts of all the members, by his kind, cheerful, loving and large-hearted disposition; Therefore, Be it—Resolved:—That is a further mark of respect to the memory of the deceased, and in recognition to his distinguished career as a Pastor, and his devoted service to humanity, crowned with high honors seldom testowed upon men: Resolved:—That to the widow, with her Christ-like disposition and the devoted daughter and members of the family—We the New Hope Baptist Church extend our sympathy and deeply mourn with them in the demise of our Beloved Pastor, Counsellor and Friend, and implore our Heavenly Father to comfort those near and dear to him. Some time when all life's lessons have been learned, And sun and stars forever more have set, The things our weak judgment here have spurned. the things o'er which we grieved with lashes wet, Will flash before us out of life's dark night, And stars shine most in deeper tints of blue," And we shall see how all God's plans were right, And how what seemed reproof was love most true. And with a mighty shout triumphant, Sprang a soul from house of clay; Mounted to the heights of comfort, At the call of Christ, The Way. Having gladly learned to trust Him, Christ, the Author of our faith; Our Beloved, whose faith was not dim Gladly entered in this race. New Hope's loss can not be measured, By the puny hand of man; Long his memory will be treasured, He who was a friend to man. Gone to dwell with Christ and loved ones, Ever there with them to stay; There where neither tear nor sigh comes, He beholds, "The Unclouded Day." Resolved:—That a copy of these resolutions be entered on our records, a copy furnished the family. Mrs. Ida F. Bates, Mrs. M. L. Copeland, Mr. W. L. Hutcherson, Expressions of Love and Estem from New Hope Baptist Sunday School. Since God through His Divine and All-wise plan has called Rev. E. T. Fishback, our Beloved Pastor, Counsellor and Teacher from his labors to his reward; and, realizing that our loss is heaven's gain; Be it Resolved, That the Sunday School out of love, and honor, ever cherish the advice and instructions which he has given us from time to time and that we will at all times try to hold up the standard in all phases of our school work as emphasized by our saluted leader. Bt it further Resolved, That New Hope Sunday School extend its heartfelt sympathy and prayer to the bereaved family, and say as the prophet Job, "The Lord gave, and the Lord bath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." Be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of New Hope Sunday School and a copy be given to the family. Respectfully submitted, Emma Peterson, Ass't Supt. J. REV. E. T. FISHBACK Whose words grow brighter, is still heralded by many with letters of condolence, resolutions and cards of thanks. His monument is built strong and large in the hefts of many, and as the year's clear duties push back the workers of the Master, they will hall in the distant with delight, good of this hero, who lived so well, did so much, and pointed so vividly the way of the cross. Card of Thanks. The congregation of New Hope Baptist Church wishes to thank the churches throughout the city, the many friends for kind expressions of condolence and service afforded during the bereavement of our congregation, due to the death of our Beloved pastor, Rev.

Ministerial Association, Ministerial League, congregation of First Baptist Church, the many friends for kind tokens of sympathy and service rendered during the hours of our bereavement, in the loss we sustain. Mrs. E. T. Fishback, Miss Madeline Fishback, Mrs. M. E. Collins, Mrs. Anna Rone, Mrs. Sadie White, Mr. Stanley T. Fishback, Mr. Ellijh Taylor, Rev. W. A. Bowren. Philadelphia, Penn., Feb. 12, 1923. To the Family and Church of Rev. E. T. Fishback, Wichita, Kansas. Dear Friends:—It is with a sense of sorrow, I am writing on behalf of the Women's Convention of the National Baptist Convention of America, to express my sympathy and condolence in the loss of Rev. E. T. Fishback. I know his loss will be keenly felt, but I commend you to the consolation and help of Our Heavenly Father. Our church is going through the same sorrow just now, our pastor, Rev. A. R. Robinson-died and was buried Feb. 7th. Sincerely, S. W. Layten, Pres. Women's National Convention, Auxiliary to National Baptist Convention. Resolutions From Mission Circle. "The Golden Gates were opened wide, A gentle voice, said, "Come." And angels from the other side. Welcome our loved one home." Whereas, Our Beloved Pastor and Teacher has been called to meet his "Pilot face to face," and to join eternally with those saint'd loved ones in whose path he so diligently, sincere'y and heroically trod:—We the members of the Mission Circle of New Hope Baptist Church, do deeply regret our loss of a Pastor, Teacher and Friend Whereas, he evinced the true M'sionary Spirit at all times, in all place and for all worthy causes, even though it often meant self-densl; and, Whereas. As a teacher of marked Five Cents Per Copy Resolutions From Y. M. C. A. Rev. L. T. Fishback was one of the Charter Members of the Y. M. C. A., in Wichita. He was among that group of men who ever saw the needs of young men and boys; and he worked unselfishly to help meet their needs. He believed in Youth; its powers, its possibilities. His Church and his home were open to the young folks. He gave great blocks of his time to the III-Y Club during its formative period, and asked to be relieved because of the strain of his pastorial duties. His death at this time is a great loss to our Brotherhood. He was a Christian Leader, enthusiastic, full of faith and of great vision. He was a brother beloved. Few men have impressed their personality upon the Community in which they live as he has done. He had the courage of his convictions. He not only stood for what he believed to be right; but with equal determination, he stood against what he believed to be wrong. He was the man who could least be spared by this community, at this time. He has been the one man who has stood upon the dividing line and interpreted the White Race to the Black and in return, sought to interpret the Black Race to the White. His daily desire was to bring about a better understanding between the races. "If I have done anything worthy of remembrance that will be my monument. If not, no monument can preserve my memory." These words of a famous King of Sparta express the heart of E. T. Fish.back, as truly as any sentence he ever uttered. He has wrought well; and has built his monument in the hearts of the people of the Community in which he gave fifteen of the fullest of his manhood years. "A successful Man is one who has tried, not cried; who has worked, not dodged; who has shouldered responsibility, not evaded it; who has gotten under the burden, not merely stood off, looking on giving advice an philosophizing on the situation. The results of a man's work is not measured by success. To go down with the ship in storm and tempest is better than to paddle away to Paradise in an Orthodox canoe. To have worked is have succeeded. We leave the results to time. Life is too short to gather the Harvest, we can only sow." H. T. Sims, Chairman. W. L Hutcherson, Executive Sec. G. G. Brown, Recording Secretary. (Continued) ability, he so willingly gave if his time and experience that we might be enlightened along those lines that would tend to make us Missionaries in the truest sense; Therefore, Be it Resolved, That we extend our heart-selt sympathy to the widow, who with him served us long and well and to his bereaved relatives, trusting, that they may find solace in their Master; and, Be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutons be given to the relatives and that a copy be kept on our files. (By Committee) Mrs. G. G. Brown, Mrs. W. L. Peterson, Mrs. W. L. Hutcherson.

The Pastor preached two strong sermons that we enjoyed. Death visited our congregation Saturday night, Feb. 17, and carried the soul of one of our members to its Maker; Sister Jennie Henderson was converted two weeks and one day before her death. She was 73 years old. She was baptized by the pastor on first Sunday in Feb. We are getting ready for our revival, which will be in short. Strangers are always welcome to our church. On the 14th-15th, we enjoyed the session of our District Board. We certainly had a splendid session. Every phase of the work was discussed and itn served to us as an inspiration. We are planning a rally for the 1st Sunday in March. Many of our Members are on the sick list. New Hope Baptist. "Jerus and Zaccheus." the general theme of our Sunday School lesson, enlarged the children's view of Chists ministry. The lesson was carnestly taught, and gladly, diligently studied. Each one played his part well, but when those present looked upon the beloved pastor's chair draped in mourn.ng and the pulpit also, the Writer reminded that our dear pastor, Dr. E. T. Fisl back, is with us no more, this thought would come—"We have lost a pastor and a friend—no he is not lost, only gone on before." Rev. R. A. Cartwright of Parsons, Kansas, preached a good, instructive and comforting sermon, Sunday morning. The Scripture lesson was 1. Peter 4:1-10. The text and subject followed: John 14:2: "I go to prepare a place for you." "A Place for a Prepared People." Miss Mildred Griffin enlivened the Social Hour by re'ating some beautiful Bible stories. "Better Bible Reading" was the topic for the B. Y. P. U. study hour. An excellent lesson was enjoyed. At the beginning of the evening worship, Rev. M. T. Jackson read a part of the tenth chapter of Hebrews. After a selection by the choir, Mr. Craver, who represents the Student Department of the Y. M. C.

Sunday, Feb. 4th—"Will You Be Missed?" This is text taken by Pastor Cartwright, "Jonathan said to David, tomorrow is the new moon; and thou shall be missed, because thy seat will be empty." 1 Sam. 20:18. The reason why David was missed is something that is worthy of the attention of every man and woman. It contains a great truth. A man is known by the things he does, by the company he keeps, by the company he does not keep and also by the things he does not do. 1st David was missed because he was hated by bad men. He was hated by the politicians of his time. He was hated by those wild, savage, brutal and barbarous tribes along the shores of the Mediterranean. The Palestines faded all Israel and all the Jews. David was especially missed because he had so many people dependent upon him. David was misused because Pe was sincerely loved. Jonathan loved him with a sincerity that is seldom found. - BEEMILLER'S MARKET - THE SILK SHOP Where All Wichita Shops. New Spring = SILKS = Arriving Daily.

He was greatly beloved and honored by men for the past things he had done and more for the things of what he was to do and be. This sermon was very practical and instructive. The appeal to the people at the close was very effective. Oh! To be missed! David was a benefactor. Brothers and sisters, will you be missed for your goodness and hated of bad men? Will you be missed by those, who are dependent upon you for their keep? Will you be missed by those who love you Oh To live in this life so that you will be missed when you are gone, for the very fact that you are missed will carry your influence through the ages, Pastor Cartwright, thtn gave a picture of Christ's life and its influence throughout the ages.
