THE DEMON OF DEATH,' SPEED CRAZE RIGID LAW ENFORCEMENT DAYTON ATTORNEY DECLARES NEGRO AND WHITE CHILD- DREN UNDER SAME REGULATIONS (Columbus, O. Feb. 23—Negro and White children at Garfield School. Dayton, are under the same regulations, are not discriminated against and are taught the same curriculum. It was contended before the Ohio Supreme court. Wednesday morning by John B. Harshman, Dayton city attorney. Jem C. Shoa, attorney for Earl Reeve, contended that in dividing classes and confining Negro children to three buildings in the four building group at Garfield school the board of education has set up a separate school for Negro children in violation of the state law. Negro children have always attended kindergarten and assemblies in the main brick building of the school, and at present there are two classes of Negroes in the main building, the city attorney contended.

DEMON OF DEATH RIGID LAW ENFORCE- MENT fares where even the young falter beneath the grind of daily toll—still this "Mount of wood and steel" this "Iron Death," moves glibly on thru the valley of sorrow and over the highway of broken hearts. The grave yard yawns its approbation as this demon of death speeds on its mission to further populate the Eternal City, and TODAY the criminal record is spared of another blot, because TOMORROW has not yet come. Stop him officer! That man is as much a criminal as he who dogs the footsteps of its victim and smites him down in the shadow of an evil hour!

A STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC Since announcing the coming of the Famous Georgia Minstrels at the Crawford Theatre for Saturday, March 20th, Matinee and night, there seems to be some doubt in the minds of the Wichita, public as to the feasibility of offering a real high-class minstrel, composed of headliners in the minstrel field, at the low price of admission advertised. In this day and age it seems to be (Continued on page four) ATH,' rich enough to pay the penalty of his folly! He may implore the lenency of the Court as a matter of Expediency and be exonerated on the ground of Relative Right; but in the conscience white presence of the Judge of all the earth, he still remains a criminal, because Expediency is no excuse for lawless killing—the Relative Right is but a counterpart of the absolute and eternal Right and the quality of its Justice is not strained. Let the Black and White, the rich and the poor alike, suffer the anguish and torture of prisons dishonor; place the real strangle hold about his neck, which is rigid law enforcement—and let him return, tear stained, if not prayer washed like the Prodigal; that the world and society may be free from this fobia, forever. WILLIAM EDGAR BAILEY, 612 Parallel, K. C. K. RELIGIOUS AFFAIRS OF KANSAS Sunday School Lesson (By RBV, F. B. PITEWATER, DD., Dean of the Evening School, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) (By 1916, Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for March 21 JESUS DIES AND ARISES FROM THE DEAD LESSON TEXT—John 19 17-30; 20: 1-19. GOLDEN TEXT—Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again—John 10 17 PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Dies and Rise From the Dead JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus Dies and Rises From the Dead INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Jesus Dies and Ilias From the Dead YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Christ Dying for Our Sins and Rising Again for Our Justification. 1. Jesus Crucified (vv. 17-30). 2. The place (v.17). It was on a hill called in Latin Calvary, in Hebrew Golgotha, which in shape resembled a skull. 2. Ills companions. Two malefactors (v. 18, cf. Luke 23:32). This shows how completely Jesus was identified with sinners. 3. The Inscription over Him (vv. 19, 20). It was customary to place an Inscription over the cross stating the crime for which the victim suffered. 4. Gambling for the garments of Jesus (vv. 23, 24). This is an exhibition of how men's hearts may be so callous as to plan and act for present gain under the shadow of the cross of Christ. 5. Utterances from the cross (vv. 25-30). (1) "Behold thy son"—"Behold thy mother" (vv. 25, 20). In this crucial hour He forgot His own bitter anguish and interested Himself in those He loved Though He was leaving the earth and its struggles, He made provision for the dear ones left behind (2) "I thirst" (r. 28). As the slinner's representative, He suffered not only untold agony of mind, but of body as well. (3) "It is finished" (v. 30). While no one can fathom the depth of meaning in these words, they do no doubt indicate (n) that the calamities and indignities heaped upon Him were at an end. 6. His death (v. 30). His death was voluntary. With full consciousness that all things which He had come to do had now been no complished, He disliked His spirit. II. The Resurrection of Jesus (20: 1-26). 1. The empty tomb (vv. 1-10). (1) The testimony of Mary Magdalene (vv. 1, 2). This woman, out of whom Jesus had cast seven demons (Mark 10:9; Luke 8:20), announced the fact of the empty tomb to Peter and John. (2) Personal investigation by Peter and John (vv. 8-10). The news of the empty tomb which Mary brought with breathless haste so moved John and Peter that they both ran to investigate. (3) The manifestations of the risen Lord (vv. 11-20). (1) To Mary Magdalene (vv. 11-19). (a) Mary weeping at the empty tomb (vv. 11). Peter and John went home, but Mary could not—she stood weeping. She should have been repelling that the grave was empty, for the empty tomb was an eloquent proof of IIs meaesthlaphip and delity. (b) Mary questioned by the angels (vv. 12, 13). She viewed through her tears angels at the tomb, who inquired the cause of her sorrow. (c) Jesus reveals Himself to Mary (vv. 12, 13). She first saw angels, and then her eyes lighted upon the Lord. She did not recognize Him in IIs resurrection body but IIs voice was familiar to her. As soon as her name was called she recognized Him and worshiped at IIs feet. (a) Jesus forbids her to touch Him. (v. 17). This shows that she was now coming into a new relationship with film Resideen, there was no time for such familiarity while the disciples were in darkness. "Go tell his brethren," was the message for her to carry. (e) Mary's testimony (v. 18). (2) To the disciples (v. 19 20). (a) When Thomas was absent (vv. 10 23). He came to them with the message of peace (v. 10), showed His hands and side (v. 20), commissioned them (v. 21) and bestowed upon them the Holy Spirit (v. 22). (b) When Thomas was present (vv. 24 29). Victory over Thomas' skepticism was realized by the sight and touch of the Lord. The most valuable possession which Christianity holds for me is this conviction: That the task is unfinished; that the conflict is still on, and that it is my business to invest my life in such a way as to make true the dream of the Son of Man.—Edward A. Steiner. Depend on Jesus Never let earthly things, not even the bitterest sorrow, blind you to the presence of Jesus. The Miracle Hair Grower and Smoother.

Good lesson; splendid review by the pastor. 11 o'clock, Pastor Williams delivered a very strong, powerful sermon. Text: "Lions and Honey." Treating the lions of temptation, disappointment, trials and tribulations, enemy and bereavement in a wonderful way. Saying, Christians were, all down the aisles permitted to meet lions and is very necessary that we may know God is with us. We are able to put down and overcome the lions only by Grace and Spirit of God. The lions will come upon us as did with David, with nothing in our hands, but with the Spirit of God upon us, we can but conquor as he did; showing honey, as the greatest joy that can come in the Christian's life, joy that comes after we are able to overcome the lions in the very thing, that offers destruction. The picture portrayed of Christ conquoring in death and the grave, coming forth and sending forth joy to the world was wonderful, an example for us as Christians. Dinner was served by the circle in the dining room. 3 o'clock a rally effort under auspices of the Mission Circle with Rev. Washington of Nowata, Okla., and Rev. Wm. Thomas of Cherryvale, his chair and members, was a service to be long remembered. The sermon by Rev. Washington, "Some Suggestions to the 20th Century Christians" was wholesome and palatable as all of Rev. Washington's sermons. Rev. Thomas delivered a wonderful sermon on "Witness for Jcsus." Both wonderful sermons and full of power; our hearts burned as they preached. Sister Mary Warren, Pres. of Cifcle made a splendid talk. Afterwhich finance committee lifted an offering of $100.00 for the afternoon. Singing was furnished by Cherryvale Choir. Mr. Mc. Burgess sang in his sweet and pleasing voice, a beautiful solo: "No More Good-by." 8 o'clock, Rev. H. H. Hopson bro't to us a "Sermonette" "I am the way the truth and the light." Pointing out to us, all about the straight way, and cautioning us as Christians, to be careful of our way of living; as Christ is the Way and Straight and Narrow is the Path, that we must travel to enter into His joys. Too much can not be said of our Bible Study Period, 3 to 4 o'clock each Saturday. O let us urge that we study God's Word, that we may know what God would have us do—Pastor Williams, teacher.
