VANWINKLE OLK SONGS OF THE AMERICAN NEGRO THE ORIGINAL PLANTATION MELODIES WHY YOU SHOULD PURCHASE THEM 1 They are the soul-stirring melodies first given to the world by those famous Jubilee Singers sent out by Fisk University in 1871. 2. Those songs were very closely connected with slavery and all that slavery meant. 3. They tell faithfully the Negro's innermost life, both intellectually and spiritually. 4. 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.

M. C. 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. SPIRITID GROUP WORKING FOR OUR ORGANIZATIONS IN COMMUNITY CHEST CAMPAIGN. Mrs. P. M. Bell, Associate Direc. The faithful few that have always made a splendid record for us in the Chest Drives, have gotten under the task again and are putting it over with a snap.

Other groups will do equally as well before the Campaign has closed. Sunday was a lovely day for service, a goodly number was out and our pastor, Rev.

Sunday's Worship—The excellent attendance and manifested interest of pupils, make the teachers in Sunday School, willing to give means, time and talent to help develop the young and encourage the aged. 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. Our Sick—Mrs. R Parks has been on the sick list. Mrs. E. Winesberry has been very much indisposed: Mr. Branch is a very brave suffere: Mrs. Mara Patterson is able to be up, but is not well.

Buffaloos will journey Thanksgiving to graze over the plains of Langston They have successfully ittated Langston for the past two seasons and are getting in practice foro that Annual Turkey Day. 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. He recovered from his complaint and in 1923 moved wi a grand daughter and stayed there few months, afterwhich he decided move back to their little home in t country and before many days roll around, he became somewhat ill aga and grew worse until the pall bears our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ down and bore his spirit aw to glory. He passed away in his 8 a ripe old age. Sleep on father, we will meet you by and by. Mother, be of good cheer the Lord giveth and the Lord take away, blessed be the name of the Lord. He left behind him one dear wife (our mother,) five sons, two daughters and a host of grand and great children, and friends. Father, we will not bid you far well, but will just say, bye-bye, for we will meet you with our mother again. Yours for Christ, M. and M. L. Livingston and wive Salina Kansas News.
