July 6—Please give me space in the newly and interesting Negro Star to say that the Tabernacle Baptist Church, pastored by Dr. J. J. D. Gorden, a God sent man is doing, a great religious and spiritual work here of which I must say Mrs. L. E. Regular, the Supt., is one who has an eye single to duty, opened Sunday School at 9:30; sang, Joy To The World, The Lord Is Come" and we went into deep discussion about the Babe of Bethlehem, Who was wrapped in swaddling cloth and laid in a manger, because there was no room in the inn; and as we were well pleased with the discussion of the lesson. Supt. closed. Total collection $7.80; afterwhich praise service began. At 11 o'clock, Dr. J. D. Gordon offered prayer; the choir sang a soul-stirring song, "Joy To The World The Lord Is Come"; Dr. Gordon came before us and took for his discourse: the 19th Psalm of David, 1st verse: "The heavens declare the Glory of God and the firmament sheweth His handwork." Dr. Gordon being a God sent man, he made our hearts leap for joy; Brother Harris offered the closing prayer. Miss Melba Adams sang a melodious solo, at the close and we further rejoiced to hear such wonderful melody by a seventeen year old girl. A donation of $15 00 was given her as a donation as she is now enroute to Boston, Mass, to finish school. God bless this young lady; I prov the God will empower her to finish and return to us again. Girls, make a step today and not tomorrow. Collection $62 00. After announcements we closed. J. W. Williams. 513 Cores Ave. Agent and Reporter. Calvary Baptist News. Rev. J. W. HAYES. Pastor S.

P. U. meetings were well atten- At evening services the pastor chose as a text Prov 22:1 subject "A good Name."

BARNES That all thinkerh are largely independent and all independent people are thinkers? The dependents wait and follow along in the path prepared by someone else. The mind of the independent man or thinker is always a head of him while that if the indolent non-thinking man is behind him. He neither plans nor works to plan. He seldom ever dealizes or sees a disaster or a possible mistake until it has happened. He is a Master of "hind thought." If his fore thought gave him one-half as much concern and cause for comment as hishind thought, he would be a great asset to his community. Since he doesn't think and plan ahead, he must be the slave of those who do. The above should be carefully considered by all of us, using it as the standard as to community worth or value to society. For sake of emphasis and usability, let me repeat the thought in short: the society value of an individual is, without a doubt, largely measured and determined by his ability to plan and work plans. All workable plans imitate from fertile minds. They are the direct and logical results of serious thinking. R. U Aware of your value to the community! That everybody that grins at you is not your friend? So be careful lest you be overtaken, by an enemy. That Kansas is doing much toward developing the youth by allowing them to play a part in the great program of re-claiming the world. The youth must be given a chance and must be encouraged. What am I doing for them? St. Paul Notes. "Magnitude of God's Love;" was the subject of the sermon by Rev. R. L. Pope at 11 a.m. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believed on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Of God's wonderful and great love for mankind, who offered as a living sacrifice His only Beloved Son. Jesus died that we might have a right to eternal life. He paid the debt for all. We cannot reject Him as our Saviour, and should manifest our love by our daily lives and devotion for Him. Our regular session of S. S., was held at 9:45, with a splendid attendance. The Bible lesson, "The Baptism of Jesus" was made clear through the study and review of an interesting subject. There was a good congregation in attendance at the services, including visitors. We were pleased to have Bro. Thes. Glover with us again after a visit in California. The S. S. Teachers' Meeting was held on Tuesday evening. MRS. H. P. HURT.

The purpose is to form you about the things your money purchases and the situation in the Community Chest and its 30 organization. IS THE WICHITA COMMUNITY CHEST GROWING? In 1923 there were 7,300 contributors who pledged $183,000. In 1924 there were 8,800 contributor who pledged 187,000. The most wholesome indication of growth is that 1924 produced 1,500 additional stockholders. During the first 6 months of 1924 $90,000 was collected on pledges. During the corresponding period of 1924 $102,000 has been collected... SOME INTERPRETIVE STATEMENTS The above facts and figures illustrated wholesome growth in the face of several months of business depression. Any business concern that. Since last January 1st, has been able to sell more goods to more people and collect more money on its scales is indeed fortunate and is making a steady progress ahead. THE VITALITY OF THE CHEST IDEA Six months ago 150 cities operated Community Chests. Today there are 185 Chests. Before the 1st. of January there will be 200. Chest raised in 1924 $45,000.000. The Chest movement has vigor. It is proving its worth. It is fast becoming the backbone of chairtable and philanthropic organization of every important city and land. Dickerson, Miss. News. MT.
