REV. CARLILE ADVISES CAUTION IN AMENDING CONSTITUTION.
(Preston News Service.)
Newark, N. J., Sept. 24—Dr. Carlie thinks that hirs t in amending the Constitution of of the United States is the cause for such flagrant violations of the acts. He pointed out that the passing of laws before the people are ready for them hinders the enforcement of them. In the South the Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery; and the Fourteenth gave all men the franchise. He knows, he declared, that all through the South disfranchisement of a part of the people's exists and no attemt is made to enforce the laws which give back and white alike the right of franchise, "I am sorry that such an amendment yas made until a campaign of education had been carried on. The same thing is largely true (in connectin with the Eighteenth Amendment"

Sunday School Lesson
By REV P B FITZWATER, DD, Dean of the Evening School, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) (6D, 1924, Western Newspaper Union)
Lesson for September 28
REVIEW — OPENING PERIOD OF
CHRIST'S MINISTRY
GOLDFN TEXT—For God so loved
the world that He gave His only
begotten Son, that whosoever belleth
n Him should not perish, but have
overlasting life—John 3 16
PRIMARY TOPIC—Things to
Remember About Jesus.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Early Events in Jesus' Life.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Lessons of Jesus' Childhood and Early Ministry.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Opening Period of Christ's Ministry.
Two methods of review are suggested:
1. Have the pupils go over the quarter's lessons and bring in reports which will picture Jesus as to His city, pity, courage, devotion, etc. This should be assigned the week before and the reports should be written out clearly and distinctly and restricted to a certain number of minutes, according to the size of the class and me allotted for the review.
41. The Summary Method. This consists in a statement of the principal facts and leading lessons. The following suggestions are offered:
Lesson 1. That which Micah the prophet foretold some 700 years before and Gabriel announced to Mary and Joseph took place in Bethlehem and was made known to the shepherds. When the shepherds had investigated they went back praising the Lord and telling the good tidings to others. Those who hear the Gospel must tell it to other.
Lesson 2. Though Jesus Christ was the Son of God, therefore divine, and taken upon Himself the human nature, which the Holy Ghost had created, He developed as a normal human being.
Lesson 3. While Jesus was absolute, sinless, he submitted to baptism, which is a sinner's ordinance, because he took the place of sinners. It was an act of dedication of himself to the task of bringing in a righteousness which was accomplished on the cross of Calvary.
Lesson 4. Jesus was led into the willingness by the Spirit to be tested by the power and subtlety of the devil in order to demonstrate the reality of the union of the human and divine natures—in order that man might have a real foundation upon which his faith might rest in order to be saved. Christ set and defeated Satan by the use of the Scriptures.
Lesson 6. When John the Baptist pointed out to his disciples the Lamb of God, they left him and followed Jesus. When they came to know Him is the Messiah, they brought others to Him. The natural thing for one to do who has found Christ is to bring thers to Him for salvation.
Lesson 6. Marriage was ordained by God and the first wedding was sanctioned by His presence. Jesus Christ, who was hourly about His Father's business, set a mark of honor upon the mainspring of life-by gracing this marriage feast with His presence. The edicator of man thus lifted the ordinance of marriage to its proper dignity and beauty. The design was to show he divine glory.
Lesson 7. When Jesus, the Lord of the temple, found it defiled, He drove it into the money changers and the animals. To use the Lord's house as a place of merchandise is to pollute it. Because He was zealous for God He did not rest while God's house was leased.
Lesson 8. Though Nicodemus was a man of high station, a ruler among the Jews, even a religious teacher, he needed to be regenerated before he could see the Kingdom of God.
Lesson 9. Because Jesus' supreme sinness was to seek and to save the st He "must needs go through Sarria" to save the Immoral woman no came to Jacob's well.
Lesson 10. Sickness of the nobleman's in brought him to Jesus. Because the nobleman believed Jesus he had a joy of seeing his son alive.
Lesson 11. Jesus' habit was to go to God's house to worship. While in the nagogue Ile read and expounded the scriptures. It was not only His cusum to attend God's house, but to take art in the worship.
Lesson 12. Though Jesus was divine needed the solitude for the renewal of His strength in communion with a Father.
Father, we commit ourselves into
your hands, and ask that Thou wilt
with us and for us as seemeth
esf unto Thee.
God's Aid
God endows with talent, furnishes
the time, supplies the opportunity, and
tables one to increase his possessions.—Baptist Standard.
All Belongs to the Lord
Silver and gold is the Lord's to give
whom He pleases.—Evangelical
teacher.
Belongs to the Lord
What the Lord has saved belongs to
Lord.—Evangelical Teacher.

NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION
NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION
BY CHARLES STEWART
(Continued from last issue). He took up the history of the Bd. giving information much desired by the members of the convention—in fact by the country. He spoke of the old Publishing Board, and the technicalities which prevented the convention from controlling it, and which was wrenched from the hands of the convention by a court decision. "Our new publishing house," he said "will afford industrial opportunities for our trained young people. It will vindicate our contention for convention ownership and control. It will make possible the making out of our own case and the transmission of our race psychology.

dollars. Then Dr, L, K: Williams, said that the Olivet Baptist Church, sent one thousand dollars and he was making a personal donation of three hundred dollars. Dr. W. F. Graham, said that he did not desire to embarass the President of the convention by giving more personal money for the cause, hence he would be just one dollar behind him, and put down $290.
Then followed John L. Webb, of Hot Springs, a president layman. He is the custodian of the Woodmen of Union, leading one of the largest fraternal organizations in America, deacon of the Roanoke Baptist Church and superintendent of the Sunday School. He said that he was proud to be at the head of the laymen movement of the convention, and he wanted to show his interest in the work, hence his personal donation of $300. He said that the laymen would be liberally represented, for they would give at least one thousand dollars.
A program was rendered following a short recess under Dr. S. E. J. Watson, Prayer was offered by the Rev. Dr. A. W. Nix, of Chicago, national evangelist.
William H. Steward, A. M, cha'man of the enrollment committee made a partia' report showing hat up to that hour 1408 regular.
At this point, Dr. Watson, called atention to the great work being re- President L. K. Williams, and moved that the rules be suspended, and Dr. Williams elected president. The second came from fully a thousand vocies, and Dr. Williams was elected
Dr. W. M. Taylor of Baton Rouge was eectd vice-president at-large. Then followed the report of Dr. A. M. Townsend, Secretary Sunday School Publishing Board of the National Baptist Convention, the business wizard of the Negro Baptist, the man who is doing so much to help to put the convention and the Baptists on the map, as head of the Board His report was an eye opener, and showed the wonderful work being done by the Negro Baptists of the country. He said:
"As a race we have stop complaining and are doing business. We believe in our future and it must be accomplished by us. Note the progress we have made, since we were put out in the world without anything. I would not go all the way back, but just note our progress for four years past. Four years ago we had 35 employees, but now we have 107. 1920 we had two stenographers, now we
have ten, then we had two editors and four contributors, and now we have 10 editors and five contributors, and two of them giving entire time; 1920 we were putting out four periodicals out, but today we are putting out ten and the Sunday School Commentary; 1920 we were buying our Sunday School helps, paying hundreds of dollars to other publishing firm, but now we are printing them ourselves. In 1920 our monthly pay roll was $2,020, this year the monthly roll average $5,935; the business in that year amounted to $91,939.23; but for this year it is $237,229.64; 1920 our net assets were $17,217.54 and the close of business this year they were $19,746.92; 1920 the liabilities were $20,11.21; at the close of business this year liabilities were $15,951.93, 1920, we were crowded into the 1st floor of one building, but now we are jammed into the parts of three buildings on three streets, and today we are looking forward with fevered anxiety, when we shall get relief and occupy our new commodious half million dollar home and be able to take care of the demands that are being deemed in the denomination. 1920 we had 9,500 Sunday Schools for our patrons, and now we have 16,000. What have we wrought?

At 11:00 o'clock our pastor being away, Rev. B. C Rarnavalona preached a wonderful sermon from Psalm 10:16. He said many things, which we hope will prove helpful to the church. Bro. H, T, Sims gave a brief report of the National Convention. Senior and Junior B. Y. P. Us largely attended. Lesson interesting.
At 7:45 the choir led in a lively praise service. The Pastor being present, spoke from the I, Kings 10:2: "Elijah's brief experience." Every heart was moved as he so carrently unfolded the riches of God's Word and admonished us to so live as Christians that we can always hear, the "still small voice," of the Lord. Glad to have the Pastor back from the National Convention and other Southern points.

THE NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION closed last Monday, one of the best sessions in the history of the Convention, the theme of the whole meeting was the "Conquering Christ," which was handled by the brain in America in address, sermons and songs. We felt assured that the Conquering Christ will bring all things under submission if we would only let him rule. Dr. L. K, Williams proved to be the master of the situation and from many angles the meeting sodot as paramount over preceding session by the following ways: more money raised, more messengers present and the turning over of the keys to the American Baptist Theological Seminary which cost $150,000,00 by the Southern Baptist Convention. The love androspect that the brethren are showing for each other and the welcoming of the 76 brethren back home from the rump Convention with the noble expression of love for the fold made this Conventi'n worth while. Baltimore, M. D. will be the next place of meeting.
We stood on the streets of Nashville, Tonn., and watched wich sad hearts the parade of the men and womanhood of American, minus the black man and women but human beings just the same on Defense Day; and wondered why would a Christian nation want to encourage and prepare for war. The we thought, OI if those old men, young men and mid-church, or to some Christian School, where they could hear the Master say; "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotton son that whoover believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." Or if they could hear His Son say; "I came that they might have life and havent more abundant." If He came to organize the world in to peace with love the supreme code, then why would men struggle so hard to organize to offset His plan. Americans let your march be toward the house of God and America will be safe forever.

LAST APPEAL FOR DUTY.
DEAR BELOVED:
As Executive Secretary and State Missionary of the Missionary Baptist State Convention of Kansas I take this method of infirming you that the Thirty-third Annual Session of the Convention will meet with the Calvary Baptist Church of Coffeyville, Kansas, Tuesday (Oct. 7-12) before the Second Lord's Day in October.
Brethren, the call of the work is more urgent than ever in its history. The accomplishments of the Conven-
JOHN H. HARRIS
REV. J. T. ELIAS, Pittsburg, Kans. The progressive Moderator of the Southeastern District Association and a successful pastor, he will be one of the powers at the State Convention, you should hear him at Coffeyville, Kans., Oct. 7-12, 1924.
A.
MRS. A. S. E. WINSTON, Kansas Kansas., State Organizer of the Uni ns of Kansas, a woman with the methods for model B. Y P. Us. It is with the latest plans she handles your Union and it will pay to have her visit you. She will help the President of the State B. Y. P. U., put on a model Union Sunday evening, Oct. 12, 1924. Be present to do your part. She is also the representative of the National B. Y. P. U. Publishing Board,
tion is in keeping with the marked achievements of the race. In fact the work done by Kansas Baptists is history for which we can feel proud.
We are now supporting 27 Mission Missions in the Home field. Have increased our Foreign Mission contributions four fold. We have established the Central Baptist Theological Seminary to top it. At the same time we still hold to our credit the work at Lawrence, forcry used as the Old Pella Home, worth $,500.00 or more.
The Seminary is valued at $,000. This gives us a property holding of $8,500.00 all free from debt.
With this accomplishment the demand for greater service awaits us. The Seminary must have a new building, which in turn must have more teachers.
Let me say to Pastors and Workers, the Seminary at Topeka is the hope of the Western World in U. S. A. as far as Kansas Baptists are concerned or Christian service in this section.
Then, too, our Summer School has grown from 25 and 30 to 75 and 100 pastors and Workers. This is one of the most substantial helps given to the Kingdom in the State.
In order to keep all of our Objectives alive and revivable we must give more and contribute regularly to the work.
Our s'ogan at this convention is $4,000.00. Our Constitution requires that what the District fails to raise of their proata is to be sent in by the Churches, Missionaries unday Schools and P. Y. P. U. at the annual meeting of State Convention. Now is the time for each Pastor and Leader to show their interest. Let Heaven and God know they can depend on you. Can God die, end on you, Bro. Pastor Can God depend on you, Bro. Worker. If so, bring it send not less than $25.00 to State Conven-
