Scobey, Royally Entertained.
Moderator, Rev. J. T. Elias, Presiding
Wednesday morning, February 27, marked a starting of a new day for the Kansas Baptist, when Dr. A. W. Ross, opened his first Pastors and Workers' Conference at New Hope Baptist Church, Parsons, Kansas. The devotionals led by Rev. J. S. King and A. W. Ross were filled with fire. The first subject: "Loyalty to Our Denomination, To Its Doctrines as Directed in the Bible" by Rev. Chas. Teal, Independence, was sound in its logic and founded on the Word of God, Dr. A. W. Ross stressed the vital points by questions that would make plain the foundation for our faith. Dr. I. D. Skinner, seasoned giant of God's Word also endorsed Rev. Teal's address and advanced many other facts about the Scripture being our only rule and practice. "Loyalty to Our Denomination as Seen In our Literature" by Editor H. T. Sims, Wichita, He brought many convincing facts, why we should use and be loyal to our Denominational Literature. Dr. A. W. Ross clinched the facts and began plans for publication committee for each district, which shall also be in each church.
Opened with devotionals conducted by Sistes Millie Anderson of Coffeyville and Tessie Wheaton and Clara Daniel.
"Loyalty to Our Denomination to its Program in the Local Church" by Revs. A. J. Gardner, Parson, and C. E. Woods, Arkansas City. The speak is made plain the value of the Link not being broken in Local Church and that the whible thing depends on the home basis and pastors are responsible. "Loyalty to Our Denomination, to Its Program In District Association," by Revs. J. T. Ellias, Pittsburg, and E. S. Scooby, Parson. They ed that the pastors, who fail are the ones who are afraid to put forth the work of the District Association. They (pastors) should not let deacons hinder the cause, "Loyalty to Our Denomination, to its Program In Woman's Home and Foreign, Mission Convention," by Sisters Mary Dial, Chetopa, Bertha Hudson, Coffeyville and Tesie Wheaton, Cherryvale. They were thoughtful and impressive as to mission being the heart of the Gospel.
Devotismals were conducted by Rev. T. E. Pierce, Oswego and J. S. King. It was spiritual. Rev. A. L. Gardner in very choice words introduced Dr. A. W. Ress, our State Executive Secretary, who laid the cause on our hearts. A great sermon was preached "On Stewardship" by Rev. J. T. Elias, Pittsburg. Sister Ida Frazier Bates made a shirt, but impressive talk. THURSDAY—Morning Session.
HOSKEN—MORMON SENIOR.
Opening devotionals, were conducted by Rev. C. A. Hall, Pittsburg and Brig. S. S. Hester, Pittsburg.
"Loyalty to Our Denomination, to Its Program, How to Co-operate" by Sister Ida P. Bates, Wichita. Among the many things she said was: First loyalty to the Denomination, value must be beyond self. We must be practical to sustain the Kingdom. We must render service according to the dictation of our conscience. Co-operation is largely an individual matter. Self-interest must be laid aside. We should be willing to take orders from our leaders. The objectives must be clearly defined before we can act in co-operation. We must take time to agitate and perseude. Our Secretary is proceeding in the right direction. All must pull in line and together. Sisters Clara Daniels, Mary Dial and Rev. P. D. Skinner responded, stressing many points given by Sister Bates "Loyalty to Our Denomination, to Its Program. In the Sunday School" by Sister. Nellie Robertson, Cherryville. She said, in part: Ask yourself, am I a loyal Baptist. Our hearts must be broad enough to get in the way to be used. We lay aside for a hat or dress but we will not lay aside for the church. Each must fill his own place. Rev. A. L. Gardner, put the cap-stone of reasoning on this subject by stressing the following points: Only effective way is when we put what we saw in practice. The Sunday School, B. Y. P. U. and Woman's Work must be under the church. In the response by Rev. P. D. Skinner, he proved that we will never get together unless we get the leaders together. Rev. Woods of Arkansas City, thinks: the church should raise all money and auxiliaries of institutional work. "Loyalty to Our Denomination, to Its Program. In the B. Y. P. U.," by Bry. S. S. Hester. He showed how the Unions fit
THE CONFLICT OF GOOD AND EVIL.
BY OPHETTA NEELY
By Faith we understand that the world was framed by the Word of God. Even when God cast Satan out of the great above, infinite wisdom did not destroy him; the Great Jehovah is too good to be unjust. He is too wise to make a mistake, too loving to be unkind and His power is always exercised in such a way that final good will surely result.
Do you not know that it is evil to obey the motto: "Every one for himself and God for us all" Selfishness is one of the most detestable sins. It is an evil that is certain to destroy the people of the world, as one gotten apple is to destroy a barrel:
Now remember that the end is too near at hard to be doing evil, but sanctify your soul. Do not do evil for evil but do good for evil. If your neighbor is a forsaken tramp, do not overthrow him and trample him down but help him the best way you know how. It is not your mission here to destroy a father's pride or a mother's joy; think rot that a tramp is void of heart or soul, because their names appear on heaven's roll.
Remember, that ever so poor or humble a person, may be there is a room left, in his heart for Jesus.—When the great Angel Gabriel with His trumpet calls, a host of tramps may lead us all.

into the denominational program, but to train: Rev. C. Teal, Independence, was strong on the viewpoint that a Union plays in the church and how it should be handled by the pastor. Love should be the whole law of the church. "Loyalty to Our Denomination, to Its Program, In Ministers and Deacons" Union" by Rev. J. S, King, Cherryvale. He thinks we will shoot because we do more criticizing than instructing; and we should do more training of the deaconse and church' members. Rev. Bell Star, Chetopa, thinks the ministers and deacons should be so close that one could scarcely tell the difference. Dr. A. He's made some timely remarks from a business standpoint.
Afternoon Session
Opened with devotionals conducted by Rev. Wm. Thomas and Bro. L. M Mickey. "A Bible on Stewardship;" by Rev. P. D. Skinner, Coffeyville. He proved that we did not own ourselves, but we are slaves of Christ: 1st, by creation; 2nd, by giving ourselves to Him. He made it plain that we are all robbers as God's stewards. Dr. Ross called a series of prayers from Rev. Bell Star, Sister Mary Dial and Bro. H. T. Sims. Dr. Ross, Revs. Brown, Thomas, and Gardner responded ably to the thoughts advanced by Dr. Skinner. Evening Session.
Openlrg devotionals conducted by Sister Clara Daniel and Bro. L. Mickey; fervent prayers offered by Rev. Wm. Thomas, Bro. L. Mickey, Sister Teresa Wheaton, and Dr. Ross led, "I Ain't Going To Study War No More."
"Lazyly To The Kans. Program" by Editor H. T. Simu.
Sits by Sister Smothers, "Where He Leads I Will Follow."
Sermen: "Loyalty to Our Program In the United States and in the Whole World." Rev. A. W. Ross, State Missionary. He complimented the members of New Hope and pastor Gardner—"Go ye into all the world, preach the Gospel to every creature;" was his text. He said in part: We have 21 missionary pastors and they must be paid $1000 per month; 30,000 churches without pastors with 30,000 pastors untrained sitting around because we are not doing our duty for Central Bastist Theological Seminary, National Baptist Convention and Western Convention. He made our duty plain and effective and showed how we could do little things each day to preach or spread the Gospel. He closed by singing: "When the Saints Go Marching In." Rev. J. T. Elias responded with excellent thoughts.

HOWARD UNIV. LACKSTEAM WORK
(The Lincoln News Service)
WASHINGTON, March 7.—The proposed amendments providing $500,000 for an addition to the Howard University Medical School was recently suspended by a letter written to Senator Smoot by Professor Kelly Miller, asking that the amendment be not further pressed on the ground that the House would not accede to them. The President of the University, upon learning of Prof. Miller's action in the matter, informed Senator Lenroot that the letter did not express the sentiments of the University; that the University is anxious, if possible, to secure these appropriations. Upon this representation of the situation Senator Lenroot offered the amendment, which had been abandoned because of the Miller letter, appropriating $370,000 for additions to the Medical School Building. It is clearly evident from the foregoing that Howard University lacks team work upon matters of legislation.
ARE YOU AWARE?
BY PROF. E. M. BARNES.
That women do not demand the respect from men now as they did a few years ago? There was a time when men considered it impolite to hail and stop a lady on the streets, or to fail to raise his hat when talking or leaving her or to smoke or be loud and course in her presence; but now, any of the above can be practiced "with immunity," and remain a gentleman
Women are becoming cheaper and cheaper in the days go by. The estimate that they allow men to put upon them is below par. There was a time when to become familiar with a young lady required much time on the part of the gentleman; but one meeting now is sufficient for the fellow to know her us Mary and Jane and for him to set like he has known her for years. The old saying that familiarity breeds contempt (and insults) is very true. Women who desire to be highly esteemed will think on these things. Just a thought for the ladies. Do you think it pays?
Hand-out your thoughts and see them in print.

IN MEMORIAM
One year ago, March sixth,
The golden gates were opened wide
For Rev. Jeremiah Reeves;
A gentle voice said, "name"
And angels from the other side,
Welcomed our loved one home.
YES: A precious one from us has gone
A voice we loved is stillled;
His work here on earth is done,
The soul is safe in heaven.

B. H. NEELY, TAKES LEAD FOR PORTERS' UNION.
Through the uniring, efforts of Burrell H. Neely, Wichita, will soon have a Local Porters' Union which will have National and international, backing and affiliation. You will say, what good will such an organization do? Well, let a see: first, it will regulate wages, 2nd, it will place a competent porter where ever there is porter work to be done; 3rd, it will regulate our working hours and days; 4th, it will weed out the undermining salary cutters who generally run a job so that none of us want it; 5th, it regulates our work everywhere we work so that we won't have to do book-keeping, engineering, mechanics and all other kinds of work and still be class d as Negro porters; 6th it will serve to keep porter jobs open to us, that are rightly ours; 7th, it will give us something to aspire for in efficiency, it will raise the standard of our work to the end that he who follows us will profit by our laborers rightly done; 8th it will allow us to open a training school for those who desire to become efficient that they may serve wherever they are called; 9th, that 7 out of every 10 of our boys who come out of school are porters after all so way not prepare them that they may enter their life's work prepared! 10th, the whole world takes us at our own valuation and where there is unity there is strength if we hard ourselves together rightly, we can command and our voice will be heard, if we have a big brother like the American Federation of Labor behind us. Watch for the call and be a charter member in the biggat thing of the hour for your boys. Remember them if you forget yourself.

AGED COLORED WOMAN RECEIVES FINANCIAL SURPRISE
(Lincoln News Service)
PRIMM. TENN. March 7.—After long years of toil, passed in the fields of this State, Mrs. Julia Cheairs may take a vacation. Recently the pension bureau awarded her a check of $5,313. When it was learned she could not read or write, a special government agent was sent to take care of her finances. It was necessary for the agent to travel many miles from a railroad to reach her. He found her on rural route No. 2, and made arrangements to deposit her money at the nearest bank and to give her free legal advice. She was awarded the pension on account of service given by her husband in the Civil War.

WASHINGTON. March 7.—Whey President Coolidge, during his New York Lincoln Day Address, proully exclaimed: "I am a Republican," he extracted the entire attention of thinking men and women throughout the country to matters of government. With him, and to them, such a statement on such an occasion had a deeper significance than a mere declaration of party affiliation. It took the form of a solemn affirmation that he stands for the highest, practical national ideals, for honorable dealings, private and public, for law and order, for the protection of life and property, for the continuation of constructive policies that have made this nation great, and for everything else that is calculated to promote, not to retard nor destroy, the general welfare of the people without regard to creed, color or race. The proudest boat of an American citizen should be, "I am a Republican," because it identifies him with the creative forces of all that in distinctively constructive, and connects him with a glorious party under whose banner our greatest national achievements have been effected.

listened to a very interesting and im.
pressive lecture by Prof. P. G. Porter,
principal of Dunbar School. subject:
“Develcring a Man Squarely or the
Four Phases cf Life.” Prof. Porter
used as a basis for his very excellent
address this portion of Scripture:
“And Jesus increased in wisdom and
stature, and in favor with God and
men.” Luke 1:52. To develop a man
squarely he must be developed intel-
lectually, phy-icaily, socially and
spiritually; and this can only be ace
«oi taished by hard work, Christ,
while here cn earth possessed the
same faculties as man, and He devel.
oped all four phases; Mr. Porter spoke
of tae danger of over-developing any
ene of these parts. The demand of
the 20th Century is for men who have
develcred squarely, The address was
both instructive and inspiring, We
were then favored with a solo by
Mrs, Eva Hatcher, “One Sweetly Sol.
