Negro Star

THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol.19, No.13, ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY SEEKING NATIONAL SUPPORT $150,000 Needed to Place Baptist Institution on stable Basis. Everybody Urged to Contribute as A Christian Duty. Among the many events worthy of mention on the coming 4th of July, our national Independence Day will be the launching of the big Summer event for $150,000 by Roger Williams University of Nashville, Tennessee. The Drive is to be carried on under the leadership of Dr. John Newton, Washington, General Director, Prof. Henry Nathaniel Bacon, Corresponding Secretary and Dr. J. Singleton, Treasurer, with Dr. Lee Henry Harlan, President of the University, The Trustees, Alumni and a select group of citizens serving as an Advisory Committee. Forces on all sides view the outcome with unrestrained optimism because of the friends the school has made during the last few years, especially under the present administration. Established since 1866, Roger Williams University has had a career marked by the misfortune and hardships always encountered by pioneers, for the institution is indeed a pioneer in Negro Christian education. It numbers among its hundreds of students and Alumni, people from over thirty states and these sections are being appealed to for aid that the University may maintain that high degree of efficiency for which it is famous. The public in this Drive is asked to invest in character building of the type so indispensable to the settlement of our present social and racial problems. Moreover the uses to which this fund is to be put guarantees the success of Roger's extensive program for character training and keeping the school abreast of recognized scholastic standards—enlarge laboratory equipment, improved libraries, payment of outstanding debts, needed repairs on buildings and grounds and a reserve for the payments of teachers' salaries. Many figures nationally prominent in public life, sponsor the movement as Trustees, Alumni or wellwishers of the Institution. Notable in this list are the following. Dr. E. W. D. Isaac, Secretary of the B. Y. P. U. Board, Robert S. Abbott, Editor of Chicago Defender, Dr. E. W. B. Curry Normal Industrial Institute, Urbana, Ohio, Rev. T. J. Goodall, noted Philadelphia minister, Anthony Overton, President of the Douglas National Bank, Chicago, Judge William Harrison, Ass't Attorney General of Ill., Dr. J. F. Westbrooks of Indianapolis, Jesse Binga, President of the Binga State Bank of Chicago, Rev. E. M. Lawrence of Nashville, and a host of others. Painstaking efforts have been put forth to guide the Drive thru to a victorious close by entrusting the work of a well organized group of workers, who optimistically expect the public to respond liberally to their appeals an and after Independence Day. KLAN PARADE BARRED BY CLEVELAND OFFICIALS CLEVELAND, O. July 2-Safety Director Edwin B. Barry has refused the Ku Klux Klan a permit to parade in Cleveland on July 31, he announced Friday. Barry's formal statement said: "I have taken this matter up with heads of the police department and after careful consideration have decided in the interests of public safety not to issue the permit." THE AUTOMOBILE OF LIFE Some people are just like an Auto, which runs fine when everything is all right. When the roads are all cleared and the weather is fine— And when there is plenty of sunshine and light; But often they come to a work-out and they get stuck, or have to detour. And maybe a leak in the testing will prove, they never were built to endure. Some cars are painted and polished so bright! They sell for more than they are worth; And some people think their profession will do, They stop short of the Bible and its New Earth; Just start up the engine and soon you can tell, If the thing is hitting on six, or if you will have to depend On the breaks of your car—you will be in a terrible fix. In some of our professions the powder and paint, Show up to lovely on the outs de—will not answer to God; For He looks on the heart and matte's not how we have tried. So if you are stuck in the quick-sand of skin; And you are struggling and floundering around; Just let God's great engine of Glory and Grace, With the cable of love pull you out. Now, once I was just a poor automobile, could run very nice in low, But when I came to a hill I would find, I had not enough power to go; I would just and rout and shink and hold back, until the Lord overhauled me —One day. He fixed me up fine, filled my soul full of grace. And now I am running in high all the time. Get plenty of water and plenty of oil and the best gasoline you can find; Have your engine tuned up and alter your brakes. For you have some hard hills to climb. Look after your batteries for blow-outs, will come on the dangerous curves; Keep eye—and if you let Jesus take hold of the wheel, You will make it to heaven on high. Cherryvale News Notes. S.

That the school has ever witnessed, and that a finer spirit of fellowship and love existed than for many years was the verdict of all who were present during commencement week. The Alumni, who came back in large numbers this year, were made to feel glad by the hearty welcome extended them by all, and they expressed themselves as being pleased with the progress the school has made during the past year. The Baccalaureate Sermon and the Alumni Address, given by Dr. H. H. Proctor and Dr. W. N. DeBerry, respectively, were both scholarly and inspirational, according to those present. The commencement address delivered by Dr. Edmund B. Chaffee, was one of the finest Fisk has had in many years. Dr. Chaffee in discussing the many problems which the world is facing today said that he had no solution to offer, but suggested principle of truth, and the principle of love. "Truth and love, correct information, and a friendly attitude," said the speaker, "are the principles which must be invoked if your generation or any generation is to solve its great problems. In conclusion, Dr. Chaffee gave the following injunction to the graduating class: "Men and women of Fisk, members of the class of 1926—to you much has been given; of you much shall be required. You begin your careers at a period in the world's history that is fraught with peril. Great problems press for solution. You will face a world torn with religious strife. You face a world in which our economic system is breaking down under the strain which is imposed upon it. You face a world in which nations and races have not yet learned to dwell together in peace and friendship. You face a world fearing and trembling at the prospect of war. It may not be given to you to solve any of these problems but your education and your effort and the efforts of your Alma Mater will be well worthwhile if you bring to the world minds alert and receptive to the truth no matter from what source the truth comes and spirit with such human kindness and RACIAL ATTITUDES IN CHILDREN AND YOUTH (Information Service) In view of the fact that so many people testify that their racial attitudes whether amicable or hostile grow out of the seeds sown in their minds during childhood, the attempt of Bruno Lasker to summarize a study of the problems of race attitudes in children in the Woman's Press for May has unique value. He points out that children absorb judgments from grown-ups and that they have an "almost uncanny sense for the degree of sincerity with which they are taught." The most effective and lasting involuntary teachings of childhood come from their observation "of the indifference we grown-ups show towards those who do not belong to our set." In this way attitudes grow up with a hold upon the individual, such that they cannot be reasoned about. The writer presents the hopeful conclusion that "practically every recognition of racial difference and every attitude toward it is the result of a learning, not the expression of an innate tat," and that the attitudes of children vary at different ages. He says, "You can teach youngsters every Sunday morning that it is right to love one's neighbor; but you might as well save your breath if they observe you building a spite wall of non-recognition, if not of actual hostility, between your home and that of the people next door." The high school at Coatsville, Pa. for several years a course on the Negro in America as a part of its work in civics. The course is presented as a general problem: "How can the people of the white and black races in the United States best co-operate for their mutual benefit?" Part one of the course proposes a study of the works of Negro painters, poets and musicians, followed by leading questions as these are included: (1) If you had not been told, would you have known the color or race of the man who painted the pictures, wrote the poems or sang the song? (2) Does your enjoyment depend in any way upon the color or race of the artist, poet or singer? The next part of the course is a study of "how the interracial situation developed." Such questions are included as these: (1) What handicaps does the Negro have which are due to racial heredity to slavery to economic conditions? to social conditions (2) How did the legislation the reconstruction period help to of the nation and of the states create our interracial problem of today? (3) What do you regard as the greatest difficulties in the way of the solution of the interracial problem? A third part of the course deals with the problem of "establishing satisfactory interracial relations." The course then outlines for investigation the various proposed solutions of the problem, such as (1) separation through colonization, segregation, etc; (2) association on a basis of equality secured by legislation, through social intermingling, through intermarriage, etc; (3) cooperation, on the basis of equality of opportunity, through interracial committees and conferences, giving information to each race as to faces about the other. The content of the course is supplemented by readings from historical and sociological texts, by the pre- warmth that the difficulties melt away. Do this and you will be worthy of those words of Kliping: And only the Master shall praise you And only the Master shall blame And no one shall work for money And no one shall work for fame But each for the joy of the working And each in his separate star Shall draw the thing as he sees it For the God of things as they are." Mr. E. L. Powell of Charleston, West Virginia, and State Director for the Supreme Life and Casualty Company, was elected President of the Alumni Association. CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH RAISES $5,000 IN TWO WEEKS' RALLY (Preston Newa Service) PITTSBURGH, I.A., Jul. 2—Following a two week rally the membership of Central Baptist Church have laid $4,103 in cash on on the collection table last Sunday morning following an urgent appeal by the pastor, Rev. W. Augustus Jones for funds with which to make a payment on the $10,000 indebtedness of the church. Other members pleased to give sufficient to bring the total to $5,000 next Sunday. Rev. Jones announced that he desired the congregation to raise another $5,000 in December and clear the church of debt. As soon as this is done work will be resumed to complete the church edifice. Among the organizations contributing the largest amounts were The Crusaders' Club, led by Deacon J. W. Lemon, with the highest amount; next came the Pastors' Aid Society under the leadership of Mrs. Margaret Robinson and third was the Layen's Movement headed by Deacon George H. Newman. BOYS AND BROTHERHOOD On June 3rd at 4 p. m. a party of distinguished visitors left Wichita, at 4:30 a. m., for Camp Wood State Y. M. C. A. Camp and arrived at the Camp about 7 a. m. just in time for sunrise prayer meeting, a a service that should stay with any recipient a life-time to see 150 boys earnestly at worship and to have heard our own P. V. Edgeworthy in his sermonette on "Jesus by the Sea of Galilee;" and dismissal and return to Camp and to breakfast, and from thence to Chapel where we heard our own Mr. Hartford of Sterling, in another wonderful Sermonette and our own James Taylor sing along with a wonderful choir and orchestra. A day of inspiration, a day that would dedicate us to the boys. Those who made the trip were Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Mitchell and sons, Mrs. A. Fauvor and daughter, Mr. F. Garret' and sister, Mrs. Geeder, Capt. and Mrs. W. L. Hutcherson, Mr. and Mrs. B. H. Neely. sentation of speakers, by class discussions and the preparation of themes. The whole subject is considered as a part of study of the composite population of America and as an attempt to understand the meaning of a pluribus unum. Quite a number of our colleges and universities have developed courses in race relations but these have dealt with older groups than the children and high school youth reached by such a course as that given at Coatsville. If a number of similar experimental courses could be developed in grammar schools and in other high schools we might soon have a body experience on the teaching of interracial co-operation that would spread far and wide into the largest body of future American citizens. Dunlap News Notes. We had splendid services Sunday throutow the day at Mt. Zion Baptist Church our State Missionary, Rev. A. W. Ross was with us, from Topeka, Kansas; he took his text from 2nd chapter of Heb. 16 verse, and brought to us a burning message. Everybody seemed filled with the Holy Spirit. We enjoy having our Missionary with us: a strong preacher; it is worth while to hear him. In the afternoon he brought to us another message from Rom. 8:16; This too, was a strong sermon, our cups ran over. We hope to have him again soon. Our pastor, Rev, Mason will be with us Sunday.

July 2-The cleaning out of a well in Belmont, partially cleared up a mystery that has gone unsolved since last fall. Last fall, a mail bag was stolen at the station here, and all efforts to locate it had proved futile W. L. McMillan, a well-known reliable man, found the missing sack Saturday in the bottom of his well. For some time, McMillan states, the water in his well had been bad. It had caused his family to be sick and they stopped drinking it. Last Saturday he decided to clean the well out in an effort to find out what was causing the water to be bad, and found the mail pouch. It had been weighted down with several brick, and when McMillan saw the sack sticking up in the mud at the bottom of the weill, he thought it was a man's shirt. He fully expected to find a dead man. The sock was carried to the postmaster, Mrs. Safah A. Lunceford, and over a thousand pieces of first class mail were brought to light. SLEW MAN FOR $5, GOT NOTHING PAIR ADMIT (Preston News Service PITTSBURGH, PA., July 2, George Lewis, was slain so he might be robbed of $5.00, according to confessions made Friday, by James Jackson, age 20, a British West Indi and John Dominick, aged 26, the detective bureau reported.
