Negro Star

THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol.15, No.29, WICHITA BRANCH N.A.A.C.P.HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING The Local Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People met in their Annual Session; Tuesday evening. The reports of the Secretary, Treasurer and President were made. The largest number of meeting in the history of the Association, for any one year, were held; Five, under the Branch, and three, co-operating with other agencies. The President mentioned the fine work done by the Committee on Legislation and Legal Redress. The Association very emphatically declared itself against the present crime wave, and pledged its support in suppressing the same. The Annual Election was held on October 22. AN APPEAL! Special to The Negro Star: I believe in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and I feel confident to make this appeal. I am really interested in the man or woman who is unsaved and I pray God as this The Negro Star is broad cast far and near that this appeal will reach some unsaved person. The word salvation which I would like to instill into your mind, is free to all. Remember, if you do not accept the freeness of salvation, it is your fault. To the unsaved man I will say at this enlightened age, it is time you should begin to think on your way. I want to pause here and say, when Uncle Sam was calling for soldiers, when there was war in France, no doubt there was some one rejected; but let me admonish you if you enlist into the army of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, you will not be rejected for He plainly tells us, whosoever will, let Him come. I hope every unsaved man and woman who reads this little appeal will not let a new year come in and find you out of the Ark of safety. I trust God because He took the burden on His shoulders and died in Calvary's Cross that I might have an everlasting life. We sometimes turn a deaf car against God's call to duty; if you will accept the plan of salvation, you will find life more pleasant. We do not know when He alls. You do not realize your condition out in the cold world without Christ—If you cannot sing like others, if you cannot pray like others, you can trust God for His Word. "The judgment is set, the books have How shall we stand in that great day When every thought, and word, and action, God the righteous judge shall weigh?" Tessie Wheaton Wichita Physician Called to Kansas City. In spite of the fact that Kansas City, has many skilled physicians, Dr. H. T. Geeder was called to Kansas City, to treat one of his old patients who had not forgotten his skillful service 12 years ago. He proved himself Master of the situation and left his patient much improved. He was in consultation with two very prominent physicians, viz: Drs. S. H. Thompson and J. H. Williams. He was highly entertained at a dinner by Dr. and Mrs. Virgil Miller in their $30,000 home. CLUB OF LOCAL BRANCH SET UP IN ARKANSAS CITY. Attorney Jas. A. Spears, Secretary of the Wichita Branch N. A.

AMERICAN LEGION Will conduct a "Big Brother" Banquet, for under-privileged boys at New Hope Church, Thursday evening, Nov. 15th, 1923, 8 p.m. Fifteen men have already made reservation for self and boy. A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. Mrs. Ruby V. Tynes was, first of all a Christian, brought up by a Christian mother. She was a faithful, sympathetic, ambitious, patient, hopeful, industrious, lovable, and loving wife. We had some ideas in common, one of which was the idea of service. With her, service was not an epithet. It meant what Christ meant—helping those who needed help. Even though upon the bed of affliction, she discussed with me what she hoped to do to help others after she recovered. I miss her more than any-one—A departed, devoted partner; but realizing that God's will must be done, and that He does not err, I bow in humble submission. And some shall work for money, And some shall work for famer, And some shall work for fame; But those who work for others' good Shall find eternal gain. Her Husband, J. B. Tynes, Petersburg, Virginia. Get-to-gether Meeting. Monday night proved to be a great time at St. Paul A. M. E. Church in the get-to-gether meeting. The Members were only charged for admission, a guest, so the numbers were great and everything was free.

It was damaged last Wednesday and Thursday by false rumors, which caused a rush, but its high rating, safe business methods made it possible to pay off all checks as rapidly as presented. It was backed by all the leading banks and business men of the city as well as 4 million from the federal Bank. It is safe, perfectly safe. WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Nov. 9, 1923. CALVARY REVIVAL NOW OPEN. Last Wednesday evening marked the opening of a great revival with Dr. E. W. Perry of Oklahoma City, preaching his opening sermon on "Organization." He was profound in his reasoning and spiritual application. When he was through the church voted for "organization and co-operation" He is giving the church a challenge; if it does its part he will do his part. Let no member come alone, bring a sinner, pray 3 times daily, and the victory is ours. He is one of the greatest preachers in the United States. B. L. C. Club Notes. The B. L. C.

Sunday was covenant at the Cherryvale baptist Church; Rev. Jefferson conducted services all day. His evening subject was "The Burning Hearts." It was wonderfully explained. A goodly number present.

The Ebenczer Missionary Baptist Church services were good on last Sunday, considering the weather. Sunday School began at 10.30 full of pop and vigor; lesson was a Temperance Lesson or World-wide Prohibition. The students seem to have taken on new life in answering the questions in class. Many good points were brought out we will remember. Lesson reviewed by the Rev. J. H. Scott; who brought out other interesting points. At 11:00, Rev. Scott, pastor, opened his regular church services, being the 1st Shinday, regular covenant meeting; In-the-which, the pastor said that Christians ought always be like pop-corn when it comes to telling the worth of such a "Man like Jesus Christ" to fallen humanity and not only that, but what He is worth to my soul. The meeting really started RACE MAN SAVES LIVES OF PASSENGERS (Preston News Service) ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, Oct. 31- Through the quickwittedness and calmness of Otta G. Palmer, railroad porter, the lives of many passengers on the Santa Fe train No. 7 were saved just a few miles from La Junta, last Wednesday night when he overpowered and killed a white man who ran amuck and had stabbed three women passengers and the conductor. It is said that the white man boarded the train at La Junta, and a few moments after the train left the station the man new a 'arge dirk knife, stabbing three women whose screams attracted the conductor who received a severe stab wound in the shoulder. At this moment Palmer arrived on the scene with a revolver firing into the skull of the maniac 'ausing death instantly. According to railroad officials Palmer was then taken from the train and returned to La Junta, where he is being held. It is thought that his release will be effected within the course of a few days, as railroad officials have taken steps to effect his release. off like pop-corn in a pop-corn concern; and will be one long remembered. All seemed in accord for one purpose. At the close of the covenant meeting, Rev. Scott preached a soul-tirring sermon, subject: "I will put no Base Thing Before Mine Eyes." One visitor, the Rev. Brown was introduced to the audience. Church roll of members was called; Each paying dues or answering present. Services dismissed until 5:30. At this time the Ebbenzer Missionary Baptist choir met in the basement for practice which lasted until time for B. Y. P. U.

O. P. U. We won't tell all for some of you may want to tke our minister's place. But to give you an idea, The Get-Busy Girls as we some times call ourselves, got busy and surprised our pastor; the girls were robed in white, with red bands around the forehead to carry out the plan of red and green: a beautiful basket' laden with good things of the season was presented our pastor Rev. J. H. Scott and family. The basket was partly covered with red and partly with red paper with four big roses, two at each end; this was entwined with shining tinkles; it was beautiful with the lights thrown on it. Well when our pastor was asked to come into that part of the Union, he did and his face was a total blank; he was taken so utterly by surprise; he was lost at that time for words of gratitude, for he was grateful in appreciation. Sunday night, after a spiritual praise service, Rev. Scott preached a stirring sermon on the ordinance of tn3 "Lord's Supper," and why we commemorate, etc. We had a large attendance, but we still pray the Lord of the Harvest that He will send more honest laborers into his vineyard. Announcements; benediction by Rev. J. H. Scott. Some of them said Rev. Scott thought he was going to heaven all day Sunday and tried to take all of his members present with him.* He surely preached the word all day; expressing fully to us the worth of such a man.

Owing to the continued infux of colored people of the South into our city, on Monday, October 22, 1923, twenty-five young, progressive colored men of the Community, seeing the necessity of some organization, that would be of help to these new comers and the city of Wichita, especially as to the housing, sanitation, and general improvement in the locations where they reside, met in the offices of Dr. P. M. Bell, 601½ North Main St., and organized the Wichita Civic Club. Officers elected are M. S. Stephens, President; Atty. B. H. Brown, Vice President; Dr. Thos. Perry, Treasurer; Dr. P. M.

Five Cents Per Copy SISTERS OF SLAIN MAN FILE SUITS Ask Total of $80,000 As Result of Brother's Lynching. LITTLE ROCK, ARK., Nov. 9—Two sults claiming a total of $80,000 damages as a result of the lynching of John H. Harrison of February 3, 1922, at Malvern, Ark., were filed in United States District Court last Tuesday by Mrs. Callie Henry, and the Misses Martha and Millie Harrison, sisters of the slain man. One suit was filed against D. S. Bray former sheriff of Hot Springs county, and his two deputies, W. T. Gamble and S. H. Leiper, and W. T. Cooper, surety on the official's bond. It is alleged that the sheriff and his deputies did not take proper precautions to save the prisoner from the vengeance of the lynchers. The other suit was brought against Clarence Chamberlam, R. S. Hodges, Leonard Stanley and Ray Galliger who are charged with having formed themselves into a mob "with divers other persons for the purpose of taking the life of John Harrison." The complaint says that Harrison was arrested without a warrant and held unlawfully, on the day that the killing took place. The sheriff, it is charged, took Harrison to the station with the avowed purpose of removing him from the scene of excitement, but did not take the precaution he should have. OFFICERS SHOW POOR JUDGMENT According to the complaint the officials showed very poor judgment when they left Harrison in the station in the care of one deputy, when they knew their prisoner was in danger. Race discrimination was hinted at when it was stated that relatives of Harrison were not permitted the privilege of making bond for him or of offering any other protective measure. According to the complaint, Lieper offered no resistance when the mob of angry men entered the railroad coach where Harrison was held. The deputy sheriff made no effort to protect Harrison, it is charged, but on the other hand readily permitted him to be dragged about 75 yards down the railroad traks and there killed. BELIEVE THIS WILL TEND TO HALT MOB VIOLENCE. The sisters of the dead man declare that they are making this fight in the United States Courts with the avowed purpose of creating favorable sentiment against mob violence and also to stimulate a willingness on the part of officials of the law to put forth their best efforts to protect prisoners in accordance with the guarantees of the Constitution of the United States as well as that of any state in the union. Various organizations throughout the country are watching the progress of this case with great interest. THE CHALLENGE WHAT WILL BE OUR ANSWER? A Full Week, Touching Entire Community. Father and Son Week—Nov. 11-18. Week of Prayer—Nov. 11-18. World Court Week—Armistice Week. Community Chest Campaign, Nov. 11-19. The Churches will have these programs emphasized from the pulpits on Sunday 11th. Father and Son Banquet—St. Paul's and Calvary Churches, Friday evening Nov. 16th. Other churches co-operating. LET US "GO OVER THE TOP" For the Community Chest. CORRECTION In the last week's paper, we stated the closing sermon of the Kansas Baptist State Convention was preached by Rev. C. M. Perkins of Topeka, when it should have been Rev. C. M. Burton of Topeka. We gladly make the correction, b- cause Rev. Burton is one of the most successful pastors of the state and deserves the honors. ITS SIMPLY TERRIBLE THE WAY YOU FELLOWS THROW CIGAR BUTTS AND NEWSPAPERS ON THESE FLOORS. YOU'RE ROUGH NECKS. WAY DON'T YOU BE GENTLEMENS, AN' HAVE A HEART FOR US HARD WORKIN' WOMENS. WHAT'S THE TROUBLE, BIG MOTHER, DON'T YOU THINK WE'RE ENTITLED TO SOME COMFORTS? COMFORT? YES, BUT NOT SO MUCH SERVICE WR. RUSSELL (For Issue of Nov. 2nd) Sunday School every Sunday morning at 9:30; had a fine attendance last Sunday morning. The interest is increasing each week and the Supt. Mrs J. W. Hayes with her staff of interested teachers, is pushing forward the work for the upbuilding of the Master's Kingdom. At the 11 o'clock services the Scripture Lesson was read by Rev. J. F. Greene; the 12th chapter of 1st Corinthians. The pastor selecting as his text the 26th verse of 9th chapter of 1st Corinthians; using for a subject: "Misdirected Energy." A wonderful message brought to us on this splendid subject. Some of the points brought out were:—That our energy must be directed to a definite aim; and we were urged to always have an objective in view, keep our eyes upon the goal and let nothing come between; and the reason for so many failures, is due to the fact that we have no definite aim; and that our energy is uncontrolled; and when it is uncontrolled, it very easily reaches the danger point; and that it is better to have a little life and have that controlled or possessed by the Grace of God than to have a lot and have that uncontrolled. The many different ways in which our energy is thrown away were brought out showing the wasting of energy by worry, loss of opportunities, and by allowing anger to overcome us. We are urged to put our energy into activity, build the ladder upon which we climb, value our strength, serve humanity and by serving humanity make the world better by our having lived in it. At 6 o'clock the B. Y. P. U. assembled in the lecture room for their meeting. The B. Y. P. U., meetings are full of interest each Sunday evening; and the numbers are increasing A splendid program is being carried out and much interest being shown by the young people. The Willing Workers had the banner for finance and the Social Group for attendance. These two groups furnish much enthusiasm and life for the Union. The Willing Workers (young men) led by Mr. Sims and the Social Group (young ladies) led by Miss Oliver, strive each Sunday to be in the lead. Visitors are always welcome into the B. Y. P. U., each Sunday evening at 6 o'clock $84700 were realized in the financial effort on last Sunday which has been on for the past two weeks. Sunday evening at 8 o'clock, we again assembled in the auditorium to listen to a strong, logical sermon delivered by Rev. Hayes on "The Wrong Solution" He chose for his text the 15th verse of 12th chapter of Luke. The message brought to us as follows: That the end of all real life deals with principles. It is the principle for which a man stands and not the man himself. If we get the wrong solution of life, we solve it wrong. Christians must make the Program for the world and not let the world make their program. Life is determined by what you are and this depends on the relation that we sustain to God. We can't die right unless we live right, and we can't live right unless we have the right solution and we cannot succeed with the wrong solution of life. Beginning on Wednesday evening; Calvary is launching a week of prayer service, leading up to the great revival that will be conducted by Dr. E. W. Perry of Oklahoma City, beginning Nov. 7th. The Christians are being urged to live up on the side of right; attend these prayer meetings so that we will be in a position to be of real service in this great battle against sin. We cannot be of real service in bringing others to Christ unless we are spiritually prepared and we cannot be spiritually prepared, we live on our knees. Make Calvary your Church Home while in the city. Visitors, welcome at all times and in all our services. Tuesday evening at 7:30, Mission Circle meeting in basement and at 7:45 Bethany Circle meeting in lecture room. These two mission circles, although meeting in different rooms are working for one common cause and are carrying out a definite program for the upbuilding of the Kingdom and the spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Wednesday evening from 7 to 8, B. Y. P. U., Workers' meeting. From 8 to 9 prayer services, conducted by assistant pastor, Rev. J. F. Greene, Director of Evangelistic Work. Thursday evening 7 to 8, Sunday School Workers Training Class meets. Friday evening 7:30 choir rehearsal, Miss Dorothy Sims, Director. Mrs. Elizabeth Neely is confined to her home on Mascott Avenue, quite ill. Her daughter, Mrs. Lucy Henderson has been called from her home, Orion, Kansas, to be at her bedside. SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE STAR. St. Mary Baptist Notes. Rev. J. E. Douglass, Pastor. Our Sunday services were largely attended throughout the day. Much enthusiasm was manifested in the S. School; also in the special effort rally. Review by Bro. Thos. Kelley was very good. At the hour for the morning services our pastor selected for his text Josh. 7:10-12. "And the Lord said unto Joshua, get thee up; wherefore, liest thou thus upon thy face? Israel hath sinned and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff." Subject: "Out of Touch With God." He preached a wonderful sermon; showing how dangerous it is to be out of touch with God. Sin will put one out of touch with God. How dangerous it is to live in sin; the wages of sin is death. We can get out of touch with God in various ways; by breaking our vows, neglecting His cause, failing to advertise the works of the Master; as there is always much good accomplished through advertisement. We indeed enjoyed a real spiritual feast. Afterwhich the Lord's Supper was administered. B. Y. P. U. Session was very interesting. Sister A. Reed, Vice President, presiding. At 8:00 p. m. our pastor read for evening lesson a part of Isaiah 66; after praise service he introduced Rev. J. W. Perkins of Muskogee, Oklahoma, who chose for a text, Matt. 27:1st clause of the 42nd verse. "He saved others, himself He cannot save." Theme, "Lost in the Interest of Others." It was a great spiritual sermon. It is a glorious privilege to be saved through Christ's death and suffering; a glorious thought to know He gave His life a ransom for many. How careful then ought we to live, and love Him because He first loved us. We praise God for the manifestation of His Holy Spirit. At the close of the sermon two came forward and united with us. Bro. Wm. A. Nesby has returned after a very extensive trip to many points in the United States; the reporter was all smiles. All clubs will hold their regular weekly meetings. Choir rehearsal Tuesday evening. Prayer services on Wednesday evening. Home Mission Circle Friday afternoon; entertainment Friday evening. Everybody is cordially invited. (Mrs.) O. L. Nesby, reporter. Chanute, Kansas. Services were well attended Sunday at the A. M. E. Church; Rev. Smith, was at his post and delivered a Masterpiece at both services. Rev. and Mrs. Smith attended the service at the Baptist Church in the afternoon and received their first cordial welcome by pastor Branch and his good people. Services at the Baptist Church was of no small note. Pastor Branch brought us a message from the subject: "The Danger os Association and Drunkeness;" we were able to see with whom we should keep company and the need of total abstinence from all drunkenness. The Hallowe'en program at K. P. Hall was a success; this was where the Aid Society did its finishing work. Miss Willie Riggs is still on the sick list. All of the older Christians were proud to see pastor Branch, Bro. L. Goodseal and Bro. Joe Dickson on Monday with the basket and its contents for the Lord's Supper. Many old ones whose conditions will not permit them to be out to service on Sunday rejoiced to have the pastor bring a word of consolation. All clubs are in fine working order for the thousand dollar mark. Watch the paper for report of our going "over the top." Tell it to The Star if you want neat work done—send it there.

S., was very good on Nov 4, officers and teachers present to study the subject of Taking Care of Our Bodies; with many bright faces to take in instructions given. It was especially interesting for the little ones that they see the necessity of caring for their little bodies that they may be strong men and women to do service for the Master by not violating the laws of nature in such as drinking strong drinks, overeating themselves, etc. The school gladly welcomed the new pastor, Rev. C. L. Collins, who came to serve this year. He addressed the school on some very timely things and had us to know the S. School is the first place and from there one can do much service for Christ; he well said, as one writer:—"Train up the child the way it should go and when it is old, it will not depart from it." At 11:30 Rev. Collins preached to his congregation; reading 11th chapter of St. John, subject: "Having nothing to draw with." It was a well prepared message. All went away rejoicing; he is full of the Holy Ghost come and hear him. At 8:30 he brought us another excellent sermon; reading 23rd Psalm, subject: "Obedience." You who did not hear him, missed something Come out next Sunday. We welcome you. Rev. Collins, as many know, comes to take the place of Rev. Edmond our former pastor, who was sent to Richmond, Mo., as much as we were sorry to give him up we feel very uplifted with having the place filled by Rev. Collins in whom we have confidence as a great leader. W. H. M. Society will meet in the 'home of the president, Mrs. O. A. Briley on the 14th, 1305 Wabash Avenue; choir practice Thursday evening. Walsen, Colorado News. We will be glad indeed when we get to the place where we will be able to keep our pastor; we could do it now if we only would. If we loved the Lord half as much as He does us and would deny ourselves of some things that we can well do without and give for the support of the Gospel, God would be well pleased with us; somehow, we don't stop to think that it is the goodness of the Lord that we make anything at all and He only asks us to give one dime out of every dollar that He gives us strength to make; let us try and do more and do better. What do you say? We had a glorious S. S., and B. Y. P. U., and good attendance; Prof. Pugh left no stones unturned in explaining the lesson. It was grand. We are hoping he will abide with us; need good men and women here and will keep on praying that the Lord will send somebody to stay with us and help us to fight this great battle. Well the gent who went to Pueblo, so much is through now he won the victory and brought the lady home last Saturday.

From the day of its erganization the federation has been a vital force in promoting/ the every interests not only of the members of the race residing in Wichita, but thruout the entire state.

Less PROTEST and more work, less insinuating knocks and hypocrital manifestations of racial love. Frational thought and positive action, honesty of purpose and appreciation of true leadership have been the motive powers behind the operations of the Wichita Federa- tion of Colored Women's Clubs, and with such forces to propel the club has accomplished great work for the advancement of the race and fully deserves honor of no undivided de- gree, The Star salutes an organiza- ticn that has found a way of racial advancement that does not partake of unwarranted attacks on the charace ter of leadership and leads as 8 con- structive force in the civic, and social welfare of the people of the city, | he are three prizes given for the most loyal Unions in Amer- ica, that wall raise and send in the largest amount on Nov. 28, 1923.
