Page Two IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School Lesson B+ REV P B FITZWATER, DP, Dean of the Evening School, Moody Bible initute of Chicago) (@ 1924, Western Newspaper Union) Lesson for November 23 THE TRANSFIGURATION LESSON TENT—Luke 9 29-36. GOLDEN TENT—This is my beloved Son; hear Illum—Luke 9 35. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Shows His Glory JUNIOR TOPIC—Iceholding Christ's Glory INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Glory of Jesus Christ YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Transfiguration a Preparation for the Cross While it is true that in this lesson the disciples are witnesses of Christ's glory, the full truth is that the manifestation of Christ in glory was to give to the discouraged disciples a foregream of the Messianic Kingdom. The hopes of the disciples were crushed when Christ announced His death on the cross. They were unable to see how victory could issue from death. Jesus took with Him Peter, James and John and went into the mountain to pray. His chief aim in retirement was to get the disciples apart and into a state of receptivity so that He might show them the method of the kingdom. Before going to the mountain He declared that there were some standing in His presence who would not taste of death till they should see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom (Luke 0:27; Matt, 10:28). That their drooping spines might be revived and their confidence restored. He is transfigured before them. Two men from the upper world are sent to converse with Him about his approaching death in Jerusalem (v. 31)—the very thing about which the disciples refused to talk. Then, too, God's own voice was heard in words of approval of Christ's course, directing them to hear the Master. Surely they cannot doubt His ability now to carry into execution His kingdom plans. The purpose, then of the transfiguration is to give the disciples a foreglove of the coming kingdom, to enable them to see the kingdom in embryo. That this is true is not only shown by the context and circumstances, but by the inspired interpretation of one who was with Him and knew all that transpired (II Peter 1:16-19 R V). Note the outstanding features of the kingdom as displayed in the transfiguration: I. Jesus Christ the Glorified King on Pt. Zion (v. 29). The glorified king on this mount was intended to symbolize the Messianic kingdom when Christ returns to the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem (Zech. 14; 417). This is still in the future, and will be literally fulfilled. II. The Glorified Saints With Christ (vv. 30:31) (1) Moses, who was once dented an entrance into Palestine, appears now in glory, representing the redeemed of the Lord who shall pass through death into the kingdom. Many thousands of the redeemed have fallen asleep and at the coming of the Lord shall be awakened to pass into the kingdom. (2) Elijah, now glorified, represents the redeemed who shall pass into the kingdom through translation. Many shall be living upon the earth when the Lord shall come, and shall without dying be changed, and thus pass into the kingdom (I Cor. 15:5053; I Theses, 4:14 19). (3) They talk of the very thing which the disciples refused to believe, namely, the death of Christ. III. Israel, in the Flesh, in Connection With the Kingdom, Represented by Peter, James and John (v. 29) Israel shall be called from their hiding place among all nations of the earth and shall be gathered to Jesus Christ the King, as the central people in the kingdom (Izek. 37:21 27) (1) Peter proposes to build three tibernacles (v. 32). The Feast of Tibernacles looked forward to the glorious reign of Christ. Peter caught a glimpse of the significance of the transglutation. His proposition showed that he thought of the Feast of Tibernacles, and therefore of the Millennium. (2) The divine voice (v. 35). At this time God Himself uttered His words, assuring them that this One in glory was His Son Jesus Christ. IV. The Multitude at the Foot of the Mountain (v. 3741) This is representative of the nations which shall be brought into the king dom which shall be established over Israel. See Isaiah 11:10-12. The people here were grievously oppressed by the devil. About the time of Christ's first coming he did his best to harm men. Just before Christ's coming again he will be especially active, for he knows that his time is short. Life in itself is neither good nor evil. It is the theater of good and evil as you make it. The qualities we have do not make us so ridiculous as those which we affect to have—La Rouchefoucauld. Repentance Especially, repentance means a definite refusal to abide any longer in sin—George Hodges. B. T. WASHINGTON CLUB NOTES Mrs. F. C.

Sunday services were well attended. Much interest manifest in the great lesson on "Peter's Confession," in the Sunday School. Some of the many thoughts brought out were. Heart-belief, mouth-confession; it is not enough to believe in Christ Jesus, but we must confess Him. With the heart man believeth unto righteousness, with the mouth confession is made unto salvation We must confess Jesus to be saved. Lesson was reviewed by Mrs. O. L. Nesby, teacher of Junior girls. At the 11 o'clock services, pastor spoke very briefly from the subject: "The Great and Wonderful Confession." Text Matt. 16:16 This was indeed a wonderful message.

They are the only true source of Negro history; if any man would read the Negro's life, let him study these songs. 5. They are the only connecting link between the young Negroes and their ancestors. 6. They increase spiritual fervor because they were born o adversity and tribulation. 7. If they are sung in the right spirit, a revival is sure to follow. 8. These songs of our fathers should be preserved with their best and truest interpretation. 9. These are the original JUBILEE SONGS. All other collections are feeble imitations and careless revisions. 10. They are the legacy of parents and ancestors whose memory we should delight to cherish.

WE were proud to register the fact that not all the whites who will do right in the South are sad nor are they asleep, but in their parts the sparks of righteousness ill burn and they respect law, and that gives protection to citizens. In the segregation case at New Orleans, 1., Judge Hugh S. Cage, of the civil strict court, rendered a decision, viz: "I cannot find that the ordinance in question differs from the similar Kentucky ordinance on which an opinion as handed down reversing the desicion of the Kentucky court of appeals, and I am forced to bow to that desicion and hold the ordinance a viation of the Fourteenth Amendment." Judge Cage is quoted as expressing myself out of sympathy with the sision he was forced, by the prior A. A. C. P.. victory to render. The segregation law declared invalid in New Orleans, had provided that either whites nor Negroes might be in a district inhabited by the other group, without the express consent of majority of the residents of either lor.

We reserve the right to reject us at once, when you fail to receive ing of his great soul and the weaker men become restless; it doesn't matter what the weaknesses are and how they became weak, they want to go. Sometimes they are weak from hate, envy, strife and malice or ignorance and they think it is the person approaching, when his clear mirror of character and manly worth is reflecting in him your own image back to you, and it makes you restless. It is like look in another's eye you only see yourself. Your condion does not dsturb a real man, he wonders at your weakness; and desires so much to help you overcome. We meet weak men on the street cars, trains, buses and living in different parts of all cities. They run or move while a real man stands, and if necessary lifts every weak creature in his doman. A real man has cheering smiles and firm grasps for all; his smiles draw and his grasps lift and no one can slip to run in his present. A weak man has grins that drive and hands that destroy; and it only take time to read about him in history, as he will certainly come to taught. Give the world men, should be the desire of every heart; men who will do right; men who will die, but will not sacrifice a principle; red-blooded men who beverence God and honor their flag; men who would be as welcome in heaven as Christ Himself, because he is just as welcome on earth. Now, it does not matter what color that man is: If he is a man, he is a man after all, is the only kind of material that any country can use to make firm its foundation.

A., was held at the New Hope Baptist Church, Friday, Nov. 15th. Eighty-five fathers and sons were present. This includes men who brought boys, not their own sons. It was very touching to note that more men who have no sons of their own, were present with one and two boys; while a larger number of boys reported that their fathers were home. A very splendid program was ren- ered. Brief talks were made by Prof. West, Revs. Marchant, Pope yes and Douglass. These talks were responded to by Mr. John D. Jones and William Douglass made a enting the sons. Douglass made a very wonderful talk which bids well to place him in the place made vacant by Jimmie Taylor, as a boy orator. Very splendid and appropriat songs were directed by Mr. E. M. Barnes, and the Irving brothers were present and lent their help in the music. The honor place went to Rev. J. W. Ilnyes and his father, as the oldest father and son present. The Senior Mr. Ilnyes made a very appropriate response. The closing event on the Program was the charting of fathers and sons, directed by Secretary Hutcherson. This was done for the purpose of giving each their rating as either father or son. It was very interesting. ARE YOU AWARE? BY E. M. BARNES. That one of the best evidences of faith is works? If an individual has faith in a certain thing, he usually will work to develop it. There is an underlying assumption however, which is based upon the mental and physical freedom of the individual. In case of mental or physical incapacity one can not always follow up his thots with constructive actions. There are many persons who claim to have thots which might, if worked out be very material in the solution of what has been for more than two score years termed the race problem; but the conditions which occasion the thinkers inability to put into act on his thot's have been, we'll sufficient pleasurable reasons for not accomplishing anything in that regard. While many see this estrangement between the races as a problem, we are not pleased" to term it such. Altho the term, problem, does not suit, one just as bad might be used to generalize in this matter. We must admit that there is trouble in existence between the races; but the cause of it all might be summed up in these two phrases: lack of mutual understanding between the races; and lack of a spiritual awakening. If the races were properly interpreted to each other and the various peculiarities and qualities of the one were appreciably known by the other; and too, if both races would properly apply the principals of the Christ to their every day lives, one would either have to stand before a mirror or ask his neighbor to find out about his color. So nothing but the destruction of the old barrier misunderstanding and a double dose of the spirit of Jesus Christ will ever entirely eradicate that existing hostile relationship which has been one of the main factors in retarding American progress. We are just trying to provoke a thought. Are you thinking? WEEK OF PRAYER MADE GREAT IMPACT ON SMALL GROUPS The week of Prayer was observed by a small group of men, who met daily. The results of this little prayer group can only be told in Eternity. There was another great host who took the little daily emphasis cards, and promised to share in this daily intercession.

A congregation greeted our pastor B. L. Merchant, Sunday morning as he preached Christ. The wonderfully well delivered spiritual sermon was gladly received. Sunday afternoon, our own congregation received with joy visitors and friends from other churches who came to help us prove our worthy stewardship. When we worshipped in the old church on Rock Island, we prayed that God would give us another church-site and promised to do our part if He gave it. He provided the site, and now the struggle is on to pay for our basement, in which we worship, and to finish the building for God. The visiting ministers encouraged us with words and money, and their members followed their leaders. We thank every one who assisted us in any way. The evening worship was well attended and all were interested in knowing what the Lord had enabled His children to do. The financial effort netted us $1595 65. The Ford Club, of which Mrs. C. Tilman was captain, excelled in finance. All have cause to thank God. All the clubs did well. If you have done your best and have done right, God is pleased.

ALTUS, OKLA. This should vitally concern the Negroes of Kansas and other states:— If the cotton farmers could have gotten sufficient help among the colored people to have harvested their cotton, there would have been no need of their appealing to Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana, for help which only meant the Covered Wagon and Carravans of Mexicans. There will be many, and n'any colored families this winter whose coal bins, flour barrels, meat boxes will be shy, owing to their not going to the cotton fields. After all of us doing our bit to induce them to come and get themselves fixed for a long, hard winter, the cotton growers prefer colored help, but the bulk of the cotton is now picked and this will likely be a death-blow to colored help, hereafter in the cotton belt of Oklahoma. We as a people of color, are too much inclined to cast up the things that make us. May we begin as never before; think in time. IN REMEMBRANCE OF FATHER. In remembrance of one that will not soon be forgotten, our dear father, who was born in a slave state and served under his old master, as was said in those days. He was born in the 40s and was the father of 17 boys and girls. I remember seeing him come in the house and heard him tell my mother, Iliza, the wife and mother of the 17 children: "I've been washed in the Blood of the Lamb" "You ain't sir," was the reply that came from my sweet mother's lips, then he would define it to her, then they would have the time of Jacob when he wrestle with the Angel of God—and how it was the old time religion; and then he joined the Missionary Bapt Church in the little home town, Du Hill, Miss., when a young man a never belong to but the one church his life. This little change past only about three times to my knowledge. The present pastor has now tended his 28th anniversary in 19 and he is still on the job. His name is Augustus Nabors. Our father live a consistant Christian all the time as served in every capacity up to deacre sexton, trustee, water shepherd, treurer and could not read a word; however he knew the word when he hear it. Our father passed away at the little home place, which he occupied about 40 years, where all of the children became of age. He took si October 1922 and under went an operation. We visited him at that time and moved him away from the little home to town.
