The City Feleratlon of Colored Wo men's Clubs wish to thank the many club members and friends for theit wonderful co-operation and support during the last year; for with the same we have been able to carry on our great cause quite successfully, During the club year of 24 and 26 we have done more than Five Hun- dred Dollors ($500 00) worth’ of char- ity work, We were successful in keeping our girl “Miss Neola Parks” in school at #Emporia, Kansas, and securing for her “a position as teacher in L'Ouver- ture School. We are very proud of her and hope to nee more of our plans materahze as this one has. We have furnished a room st the Salvation Army Gita! Rescue Home, which we hope will be made a Chrise tian home with encn doors for those In need of the same. We have also furnished up the Mary B. Talbert Branch of the Y. W. C. A. and just a trip to the building will convince the most fastideous of our work and after a few years of slcep- ing the Parent-Teachers’ Association at L'Ouverture School has been re- vived through our interest. We have also helped many needy famihes dur- ing the cold wintry months by buy- ing food and fuel for them, and we tried to bring comfort and cheer to many mothers and children at Christmas time last year, It is our aim to lend a helping hand to those who are in need and we realize it is the little deed of kindness that is real- Jy appreciated. On Oct, 2, '25 we open- ed our year's work with a Luncheon given at the Mary B, Talbert Branch of the Y. W. C. A., and we were #9 pleased to see each and every club support us One Hundred Per Cent, for with the same the spirit of “Push On” reigned supreme, + We are now working with Eleven ¢lubs’ enrollment and we expect to have three or four others organized with in the near future, { + Our first regular meeting will be held at the Y. W. C, A., November 6th, 1925, and we are hoping that every club will have a large repre- sentution present, that we may start this great year before us with much interest and enthusiasm as we ara eager to put over a complete program ! this year, | a ee oe BENJ. J. DAVIS” CHOSEN” SUCCEED HENRY L. JOHNSON ATLANTA, GA., Oct, 23—Follow- ing a turbulent battle since the death of Henry Lincoln Johnson, Republi- can National Committeeman, Ben- jamin J, Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent and prominent Odd Fel- low, was selected Thursday. There were several white candi- dates in the field for the place but none of them developed sufficient strength to defeat Davis. Among the candidates were Dr, W, .Y, Gil- liam, chairman of the state commit- tee; Charles Adamson, of Cedartown; Clark Grier, of Augusta; John W, Martin, of Atlanta; and Benjamin J, Davis of Atlanta, There were sixty members of the state ‘committee, 18 of whom were white men and the others Negroes, Selection of a national committte- man by the state committee, however, does not guarantee membership on the national body, which elects its ‘own members, but usually fairly unan. Smous endorsement ef a man by the state committee ordinarily insures election to the national body, Grier Has Davis Indicted The Emanuel County grand jury has just returned an indictment against Ben.

We have a great building program on hard out hese that will tahe all o/ two cr more sears to complete and I Know I will have to come home for a Little rest after that, and when I come bea this time Iam going to get a teal good rest, A person that has never been to the tropics would not realizt what turrible storms and hurricanes we ‘have out here but on the night of Apr, % we had one that came to our mis- sion hill and blew down every bul.d- ang, but the one that Miss Gooding was staying in, even the goat and chicken house went down too; the girls and I were stopping with friends in town and thus we escaped. None of the children were hurt and only one chicken and a billy goat was kit | ed when their houses went down; these boys did not pay any sieetie to that storm, but went to work elean- ing Billy at once. We had just burned our large farm that day, and at first | the whole mission was in danger of being burned down, but all at once | the wind changed, the fire took an- other direction, and down went the houses, Then I had to put up a large buildmg for the boys and I have an- other five room house under construc« lich the girls and me, and it will be 80 well built, until the boys ean use It when we get in our large forty-four room building. Ovr $9000 saw mill is out here and it is now making lum- ber, and with it running it will be cuite easy for our Lott Carey Wo- man’s Convention to put up this build- ing for $10,000, T have been working very hard and that is why you have not heard from me sooner, but I plan to write to you at Ieast once a month, I have set out ' over three thousand coffee trees, and! 1am trying hard to get two thousand more by the last of Oct., and then 1 will not get out any more until next year, June, when the rainy season comes on again; we are now in the midst of our hard rains and the very time to plant coffee, I planted a large coffee bed before I came home on a furlough and my mission boys that I} left here took good care of it, and T got over two thousand trees out of that bed and friends gave me some more, so ou ace with a large coffee | farm in a few years this misslon sta- tion will be self supporting; when the | dry season comes on, I am going about 50 miles further back in the interior and get enogh coffee scions fiom my native chiefs to put out 100 acres in coffee, The Allegheny General Asso- elution of Western, Pa., ia planning on scnding me # one ton Ford truck soon, and then I will not have to walk to the native towns to hold service and ] will be able to make three towns every Sunday, instead of walking so far to set to one as I have to do now, I have had thtee chiefs recently to pend for me to come to their towns to talk “God salaver,” aw they call the Gospel, but the rains are 20 hard now until I have to wait & few weeks longer.

Attorney Darrow left Chicago, Thursday for Detroit, to prepare 1 t+ case for eatly trail, The shooting was the result of an allered attempt ofa mob of scveral thousand persons who had gathered before the home of Dr. Sweet to force him to move out of a po-called white neighborhood. It is eid that this district was previously cecupled by white families and Drs Sweet's moving into the sectlon was resented by the whites, , God will hold me responsible for them, | The Government is building fine road: and bildges, and that will help us very much with our evangelistle work; in ong of our Pessey towns I will soon have a Baptist church organized, and 1 also hold service in a large Gula town, the very town in Which Sanimy Stubblefie’d was born, ‘The truck will serve for many pur- roses, for we can use it as a Gospel car on Sunday, we can haul our lum- ber for the buildings, and to carry our loads, when our boxes and other things come out to us; this road goes right into Monrovia. Remember me very kindly to all of the friends in the State, and ask them kindly to pray specially for me and the Lori's wosk at the State Conven- tion in Oct, because I want th pray- crs of all that E may still keep in good health to put over the Lord's pro- gram, 1 T am very proud of the Cradle Roll Magazine that our National Conven- tien 4s getting out end I see that your mother has a large hand in it, Dr. Tovnacnd sgnt me a copy also a copy of the Home Department Magazine with my last Sunday School hterature that he sent out, I hope someone in the State will xend me some of the Cradle Roll Certificates, becauseson my missionary trips, I believe I can get more babies on my list than any church in America, Africa Ix a lund of babics and when one I get there, names on the list then they will be- long to my mission, and the parents will give them to me as soon as they are old enough to come to me.

Convention met with Mt. St. Baptist On., Oakley, Kansas, Oct. 4th. The weather was fair with a large crowd in attendance. Many visitors came a long way to attend. The Sunday School lesson was followed by an old-fashioned covenant meeting, led by Itev. M. S. Jones. There was much fervor manifested during this meeting, which was inducted a spiritual tone. A solo, "Angels Get My Mansion Ready;" by Mrs. Salhe Howard, followed. Rev. J. W. Wilson delivered an excellent sermon. "The Holy Spirit;" from John 20:22: "And when He had said this He breathed on them and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost." He gave some vivid examples of the power of the Holy Ghost down thru the ages. Exhorted the Church to greater faith thru the medium of prayer. Having thus dined spiritually, with the arrival of the noon hour, a sumptuous repast was spread from well-ruled baskets; and our physical hunger, also, was appenced. Afternoon Session. The Convention now came to order: Song by congregation. Welcome Address, Bro. Jesse Duck, Mt. Olive. Response by Sister Mamie Smith, Edith S. S. We were favored at this time with an essay by Miss Bernice Neving of Pleasant View; "My Attitude as a Christian Toward the Church;" showed very clearly that a Christian should co-operate with and help the Church, wheresoever he may be; that being in the service of the Lord is the highest type of service. Obeying the admonition of our Lord to 'occupy' 'till I come.' This paper was very helpful. A musical reading by Mrs. Viola Wheeler was grand. It was delivered with the art and talent of the advanced elocutionist. "The Eternal City;" a vocal and instrumental duet by Mr. and Mrs. N. W. Ward, was rendered, being an excellent example of cultured musical rendition. Oakley Junior Choir sang, "Ring Out the Message;" for which they were encored. Among those who read interesting papers were Mrs. Mamie Smith and Carl Clark. Duet by Miss Ida Wheeler and Miss Rose Williams. At the instigation of District Missionary, M. S. Jones, a special collection, totaling $25 06 was raised for Rev. and Mrs. E. W. Douglas, Brewerville, Liberla, Africa. Evening Session. Song by congregation. Rev. M. S. Jones preached from Ephesians 2:18: "Paul's Mission to the Gentiles. Total collection for the day was $46.17. This session will go on record as being one of the best in the annals of its history. The Convention is bringing about better unity among its members, better religious and helpful ed- ducation of the young as evidenced by their splendid program. Long live the Convention. M.

(Continued from last week) NEGRO THEOLOGICAL SCHOOLS LAG BEHIND TRAINING OF MINISTERS INFE- RIOR TO THAT FOR OTHER PRO- FESSIONS. Report for Research Institute Reveals Serious Defects. Inst.of Social and Religious Research) "In the beginning, the venerable patriarchs who led the Negro denominations were, as a class, highly respected individuals whose merits were well known and whose defects were accepted rather with a spirit of charitable indulgence than of criticism. But as the Negro people became better educated, and otherwise increased their contacts, they, of course, became more critical." The Negro Star-for the good of the people TURK'S PLACE 507 N. Main St. Barbecued Meat Coney Islands and Cold Drinks NEW VOICE TEACHER HERE WINNING CONFIDENCE In such a trying emergency as death, the immediate family must necessarily be relieved of all the many responsibilities of funeral arrangement. In a quietly efficient manner, with a degree of perfection that leaves no detail overlooked, we have won the confidence of those we serve and those who see us serve. CITIZENS MORTUARY 110 W. Elm Street Office Mkt. 5017 PHONES: Res. D. 402-R Pointing out the fact that the recent "rapid urbanization of the Negro has accelerated the growth of race-consciousness", one of the evidences of which appears in the number and character of the schools founded by Negroes, Mr. Daniel writes; "Of the fifty-two schools included in this survey as having a department or school of theology thirty-four were founded by Negroes. These schools are maintained only at considerable sacrifice. But they are a source of great pride to all who consider themselves a part of this tripartite organization; (1) the supporting and controlling constituency, (2) the administrative and teaching staff, and (3) the students. As one manifestation of a rapidly developing race-consciousness we have, therefore, racial institutions of this type in contradistinction to the schools founded by whites for Negroes. "They maintain their hold upon their constituency to a considerable extent because they supply a sort spiritual release from what is conceived of as 'the domination of the white man.' In reality they represent a desire to be independent, as expressed in the familiar language of the constituency, 'to have something of our own.' Not only is this the dominant motive for founding independent Negro schools, but there seems to be no evidence of its being notivated by a desire to change from the type of education offered in the schools controlled by whites. The curricula of the latter are convincingly alike. "The very fixation of attention by bringing the points at issue prominently into the field of discussion has served to accelerate the growth of an already rapidly developing race-consciousness, which has manifested itself also in the schools founded by the whites, there has been a great increase in the percentage of Negro teachers, and in the importance of the positions held by Negroes in the schools owned and controlled by whites. There has also been greater assertiveness on the part of the students in both types of schools. Finally, race-consciousness plays an important role in the situation that defines the status of the Theological STRAIT-TEX TRADE-MARK HASENJOYED SUCH UNEXPECTED SUCCESS IN THE PAST YEAR THAT WE HAVE DECIDED TO ADD A FEW MORE BEAUTIFYING PREPARATIONS TO OUR LIMITED BUT EFFECTIVE LINE The following is our complete list Strait-Tex Hair Refining Tonic $1.00 Refines kinky, frizzy, course hair to per bottle medium; medium hair to good.

SOME parents have the false notion that their children are too good to be whipped or corrected, well the day will come when he or she will be much more hard to convince than now and it may take death to straighten their bodies and their minds or souls will go to a place prepared for crooked people. The home, the pulpit, the school and the community should be in harmony in order that they might give to the world a greater generation than the one now living. POEPLE who let their feelings control them, render poor judge ment. If their feelings are disturbed in the wrong way they begin to move around to see who and what they can destroy. They lose sight of the law, the community interest and the God, who says: "If he likes wisdom, let him ask." Their eyes become dimmed with strife and they get on the war path for vengeance. They begin a mob effort to poison the minds of the people of the whole community and in a short time, peace and tranquility is gone and like maddened wolves they begin their destructive work. Reason will make a people stand still long enough to reason and reason will always win. If God did not accept the sacrifice made by Cain, because it was not the proper kind nor did he have the right spirit when he offered it; He will also take in hand the Americans, who insist in offering human flesh in the flames. Israel's sins came upbefore God until He turned His back on them and He will turn His back on the American people; if they don't recognize the fact that all men must be treated rightly. In these trying moments it is hard to ask our race to love those who despitefully use you, but God said it; and we must stoop to conquer in His name, so be sure that you have done your part, then be strong advocates of right, seek cooperation of the race; throw your strength together; build financially, morally and spiritually for the future and the God, who knows all things will see your good works and give you the victory. Believe in God and you will believe in your race. s LOCALS Some out of town relatives attended the funeral here last week among them was Mr. Sexton a father of Oklahoma.
