Negro Star

THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol.19, No.16, M. W. JOHNSON UNIV. PRESIDENT By R. A. ADAMS. (Preston News Service) The sun is shining on Howard hilltop, and its radiant rays reflect the memories of ardent Negro Baptists who well remember Dr. C. I. Wainwright, who perched the Gospel of Christ from Atlanta, Ga, to West $3rd St., New York City. Ardent, religious white people, in similar vein, will remember Dr. Arthur Cushman McGiffert, whom is probably the greatest theology student who ever lectured in the halls of Union Theological Seminary. The reflections of these two Christian gentlemen are embodied in Dr. Mordecal W. Johnson, of Charleston, West Virginia, to whom has been given the leadership of the race's greatest educational institution, Howard University, could have hoped to have. Johnson is a believer in respect for personality. Johnson says, "When you insult the personality of any person you are insulting the personality of Jesus Christ." Johnson is a believer in the principles of collective bargaining, excepting that he does not believe that any group should bargain to the detriment of another group. This is the spirit of the policy which will save Howard University to itself. Subsidization, education, coalition, and the false "equations," as between racial groups mean nothing if Christian respect for personalities and unity are battling with each other as they have been in the past for recognition. President Johnson has the vision, the hope, the ability, and the art to past successes, has been without its gates. If Johnson fails it will not be his fault. It will be the fault of those, who, like the critics of C. T. Walker and Arthur Cushman McGiffert, in later years, hended to their knees to beg pardon for the moral and spiritual wrongs which they had perpetrated upon the benefactors of education and of religion. Let Howard learn to respect the presidents of others and give to Dr. Johnson the co-operation which he needs in bringing a new visitor to the rejuvenation of the educational source of Negro youths, twenty years hence. JAMES VANN PASSES TO HIS REWARD Last Tuesday at 7:30 a.m., marked the end of the earthly career of Mr. James Vann, 1315 S. Mead Ave. He seemingly had a presentment of his death several days before he left us. The reading of the Scriptures by his auntie last Friday and his wife just moving around in the house would make him happy, so much so until, she went in to caution him about exerting himself too much and he said, "Baby, I am happy; if I go now, let me go. I have done many things wrong, but I feel that God has forgiven me." He asked that she stick by the four boys, that she had been a mother to them and he believed that she would always be. "I don't care what any one says, you stay in the home." Three quarters of an hour before he passed, he beckoned for a pencil and paper and wrote his parting words to the boys: "I am going to leave, be good and meet me in heaven." He pulled his wife down and kissed her and wrote these words: "I am going to leave you, look after everything to suit yourself." Thus passed into the beyond this soul conscious to the last. He was once a member of the New Hope Baptist Church, but to please his wife, he in recent years connected himself with St. Paul A. M. E. Ch, where, Friday afternoon at 2:30 his funeral will be eulogized by Pastor C. E. Brooks, assisted by Rev. B. L. Marchant, Pastor of New Hope Ch. He leaves a wife, 2 sons, 1 step-daughter, 2 step sons, 1 sister, 1 brother, 3 aunties and a number of other relatives and friends.

INNOCENT NEGROES DIE IN PRISON DEATH-BED CONFESSION OF WHITE MAN REVEALS TERRIBLE MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE IN ALABAMA. As an evidence of the brand of justice meted out to Negroes in the South, the case at Gadsden, Ala., in which innocent Negroes were sentenced to life terms in prison for the killing of a white man, and two of these victims of miscarriage of justice have died in prison in the six years past—all for a crime committed by the nephew and wife of the murdered man, recently came to light through the death bed confession of the actual white murderer. The killing of Otis McClendon, white, at Gadsden, Ala., recently caused the arrest of Mrs. Myrtle McClendon for the murder of her husband six years ago. Four Negroes were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime, two of whom died in prison last year. Otis McClendon confessed to some friends just before he died, after having been shot by Cleve King another white man, that he had assisted in the killing of his uncle whose headless body was found in a swamp. The confession led to the questioning of Mrs. McClendon's daughter and development of evidence against the woman which caused her arrest. The accused Negroes were Cleo, Staten, John Murchinson, Jim Hutson and Will Crutcher.-Clipping. NEW AND IMPROVED BUSINESSES The Jackson Undertaking Co., is opening a wonderfully nice place at 628 North Main Street. Every partitioned, and neatly arranged with funeral parlor. The proprietor has just returned from Kansas City, with an up-to-date hearse, which makes him ready to do the real service for the families who are in sadness. It would pay to go around and look this new establishment over. May we also call your attention to the inet that Crowell & Williams Undertaking Co., 1345 Wabash Avenue, has recently purchased a Buick Hearse, that they might make it convenient for their customers. There is no excuse, with the 3 undertaking establishments among us, to keep you from giving some of these companies your business. WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, July, 16, 1926. COL. ROOSEVELT ASKS FULL RIGHTS FOR NEGRO RACE IN AMERICA COL. ROOSEVELT ASKS FULL RIGHTS FOR NEGRO RACE IN AMERICA CHICAGO, July 9—Demanding for colored Americans full civic rights and equal opportunities with all other citizens, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt June 28th addressed a crowded and enthusiastic mass meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the 17th Annual Conference here. "I believe that the work the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is doing is thoroughly patriotic and constructive," said Col. Roosevelt. "It is American in the proper sense of the word. "The United States is a country wherein all citizens are supposed to have an equal share in the government. We are, according to the principles on which this nation was founded, equal partners in its governmental affairs. Any man or group of men who attempt to deny full civic rights to any citizen on account of race, creed, or color is committing a thoroughly un-American act, one that is subversive of the ideals of the country. "Your organization as I see it is striving to obtain full constitutional rights for colored Americans and by opening opportunities to them to help them build themselves into better and finer citizens. All colored Americans must have full governmental rights. There must be no distinctions made by law either covertly or openly against any of our citizens. In certain States by subterfuges as to registration or simply by force, colored citizens are denied the vote. Any State which prevents its colored citizens from exercising their privilege of the franchise simply because they are colored, is subverting the Constitution of the United States. Every real American should demand that this evil be set right and do his level best to see that his demands receive proper attention. "Equally important with governmental rights are civic opportunities. Colored Americans must be given the opportunity to get the proper education. It is rank injustice for any community to do oterwise. Not only is it rank injustice to the colored Americans but it is rank injustice to the United States, for the children of today are the country of tomorrow. Any one who denies the children the chance to get a good education is striking directly at the interests of the entire country. In the interest of my children, I demand that all children be given a fair chance. "I have heard time and again shortsighted Southerners maintain that the Southern Negroes are not educated enough to exercise the franchise intelligently and in the same breath state that they did not believe in spending money on schools for colored people. They did not seem to realize that their injustice in refusing to provide schools was responsible for the conditions of which they complained. They were perfectly willing to see the Negroes called upon to pay taxes and defend the country in time of war but they denied them the vote and schools. They were willing to see them bear the burden of citizenship but would deny them the privileges. "We demand for all American citizens full governmental rights and full opportunities for development. I will fight with every ounce of strength that I have for the rights of my colored American fellow citizens, but it is their responsibility when they get those rights to employ them. "They have done excellently as anyone who scans the record of the last seventy years must admit. Their advance in commerce and industry is evident in any of our great cities. Their work has not been confined to gainful occupation. There are edu- MRS. RAYMOND SMITH OUR NEXT REGISTER OF DEEDS The finest way to judge the equality of a person is to watch how unselfishly she works for others, and we have watched with interest the stirring qualities of this woman, who has landed many candidates for the Republican party and this is the first time that she has even asked for an office by the choice of the people's votes,—it would be really a shame to not vote for her. Let every voter in this city and county think of no one else for Register of Deeds. Mrs. Smith is well qualified, having been a teacher in the city schools and a graduate from the Business College. Her heart should be right as she is a member of the First Methodist Church and a worker, and is now superintendent of the Primary Department. Mr. Bowan has been elected to office four times; let us pass the pie around. We won't be going wrong, because sixty-two counties in our state out of the 105, have women for Register of Deeds. Can we count on you; if so, she will be elected or nominated. She is vice chairman of the central committee and has always worked among our people, and she still pledges to do all in her power to give our race the recognition they should have in office. This may be the way that Wichita's talent can render service back to the city as well as make a living for him or herself. Will you try her? A SUDDEN DEATH Last Wednesday afternoon, Mr. C. P. Pierson, 1110 Cleveland Avenue, was taken to St. Francis Hospital by Dr. P. M. Bell and died at 5 p. m., with stomach troubles. He leaves a wife, 1 daughter, 2 step daughters, and many friends. Fumeral arrangements have not been made; waiting the arrival of his daughter from Tyler, Texas. He was a member of Calvary Baptist Church He was a business man, and ran a cafe on N. Mosley. The Star extends sympathy to the bereaved. FUNERAL AT CALVARY Last Tuesday the funeral of Mrs. Alice Kline, was held at Calvary M. B. Church with Pastor J. W. Hayes, officiating. The remains was laid to rest in Maple Grove Cemetery. The Citizens Mortuary in charge. We enter in sympathy with the Vaughns family in the loss of their mother. cators like Booker Washington; soldiers like Colonel Young; poets like Dunbar and Jonhson; historians like Woodson; singers like Roland Hayes. I could give a hundred more names, many of them, men whom I am happy to call my friends. They took their part in war. We served together as comrades together in France. Many of them lie buried there with my brother. "This development must continue and broaden. At this time, I feel one of our needs is more sound, able leadership for colored men by colored men. It is for this reason I am happy to be a member of The Spingarn Medal Committee for I feel that by recognizing leadership, you encourage it. "We are Americans now and nothing else and our first duty is to this country. Our loyalty does not lie first either to your African ancestors or to my Dutch ancestors. We wish all men well wherever they may live in the world but primarily our service and our duty lies here in our own country. We demand for all colored Americans the full opportunity to develop themselves and we pledge to this country our undivided and unchangeable loyalty and devotion." DODGING A TEST CASE LITTLE ROCK, ARK., July 15—More than 300 delegates from all over Arkansas, gathered in Little Rock last week for the 14th Annual Session of the Mission Templars of America, fraternal order with headquarters in this city.

Dear Friend:— As each local, county, district, and state Laymen Movement is to be represented in the Laymen Movement of the National Baptist Convention at Fort Worth, Texas, in September, I am writing asking that you send me name of the president of your local, county, district and state Laymen Movements.

HOLD CONVENTION (Preston News Service) Refusal of the Supreme Court to pass on a test case which involved the legality of contracts binding property owners in Washington not to sell homes to Negroes establishes the right to bar them of prescribed residence districts by this method. The effect of the decision is to leave in force injunctions issued by lower courts preventing such disposal of property where agreement has been entered into not to sell to a certain class or race. The issue has aroused a great deal of controversy in a number of cities. It has intensified racial animosities and from time to time brought about riotous conduct deplorable from every point of view. The Negroes of this city are entitled to opportunity to acquire good homes to escape from alleys and slums to raise their standards of living, to educate their children. They are an integral part of the community. Whatever helps the city as a whole, and whatever is harmful to their physical, mental and moral welfare, is inevitably reflected upon the general public.

Miss Susie Wilkins will have charge of the girls' intermediate class during the absence of their teacher, Miss Dorothy Odell who is having her vacation. Mrs. F. F.

Parks delivered a great spiritual message; his talk was from (Freston News Service) NEW YORK CITY, July 16.—Charging the Rev. Walter B. Greenway, pastor of the Bethany Temple Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, as a Klan sympathizer, local graduates of Lincoln University have joined in protest against his election as President of the University. In a statement issued by the Lincoln Alumni Association, signed by the President, Dr. E. P. Roberts, and the Secretary, William M. Ashley, Executive Secretary of the Newark Urban League, the alumni quote an article in the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin of June 28, headed "Pastor Raps Klan Ban." The quoted article reads: "Mayor Kendrick's order refusing to allow the Ku Klux Klan to hold a parade in the city next September in connection with the Sesqui-centennial was criticised in a sermon last night by the Rev. Walter B. Greenway, pastor of the Bethany Temple Presbyterian Church 53rd and Spruce Streets. "Where are we Americans? Are we going to be sold out?" he cried. In answer to this there was a chorus which boomed "No." OBJECT TO A SOUJHERNER The statement continues: "The alumni of Lincoln University have been stirred into a rage by the knowledge that the Presidency has been tendered to a Southern man. The meeting at which the tender took place was held in Philadelphia June 23. The man to whom the Presidency was tendered was the Rev. Walter B. Greenway, pastor of the Bethany Temple Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia. He was born in Broylesville, Tenny and educated at Washington College. "In May a committee of five of the trustees was appointed to bring into the board at its annual meeting the name of a candidate for President. It is believed the majority of this committee favored the selection of Prof. Walter L. Wright, who has been at the university for about (30) years and is beloved by alumni students alike. The alumni at their annual meeting at the university, June 15, also unanimously recommended Prof. Wright. "It is thought the Committee of Five had no opportunity to make the recommendation effective at the Board Meeting. What happened was that Dr. John B. Laird, President of the Board of Trustees, corralled his friends on the Board and rode roughshod over the minority members, who are the real friends of the university and have its interests at heart. Say Board Was Silenced "In order that the opportunity for protest might not be given to the alumni and other friends of the institution, a gagging motion, silencing the Board until the candidate would indicate his acceptance was passed." There has been a marked difference of opinion between members of faculty, students and alumni on one side and trustees on the other relative to the selection of a President. The post has been vacant for nearly two years. The faculty has objected to previous choices of the trustees on the grounds that they were unfamiliar with the Negro question and were by training and experience more fit to preside over churches than an educational institution. All the teachers at Lincoln are white. The Bethany Temple Presbyterian Church is known as "the Wanamaker Church." Prov. 22:6; On "The Training of Children," of the special commands of God for early Christian training, for its lasting influence upon their future lives. At the evening services, 8 p. m., Rev.

Bell, introduced Miss Myrtle Hurst, who in behalf of (Continued on page four) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SundaySchool Lesson (By REV, P B FITZWATER D.D., Dean of Day and Evening Schools, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago ) (C. 1826 Western newspaper Union ) Lesson for July 18 THE CALL OF MOSES LESSON TEXT—Ixodus 2 1; 4 12 GOLDEN TEXT—Certainly I will be with thee—Ex 2 12 PRIMARY TOPIC—Moses at the Burning Bush MINOR TOPIC—Moses the Shops JUNIOR TOPIC—Moore, the Ship herd INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Facing a Great Opportunity. 1. The Lord Speaks to Moses From the Burning Bush (310). It was while keeping the stock of his father-in-law in the desert that the Lord appeared to Moses in the vision of the burning bush. Moses stopped aside to behold this strange sight and was taught the essential lesson of the proper approach to God. The Lord did not leave him long in suspense. He told him that He was the God of his fathers, the covenant God. As soon as he knew that it was God that was speaking to him, he hid his face. II. Moses' Commission as the Deliverer of His People (3;7 10). Observe: 1. God's active interest in His people (v. 7). In a preamble of this commission God declared: (1) "I have seen the affliction of my people." So keenly conscious is God of all that goes on in the world that not one of His chosen ones can be touched without His notice. (2) "I have heard their cries." We sometimes feel that God does not hear, but no cry ever goes up from the heart of his covenant child unheard. Many indeed are the sorrows of God's children. They are so diverse, but He knows all about them and will adapt himself in grace to their need. 2. God's gracious obligation to his people (vv. 8, 10)). (1) To deliver them out of the land of the Egyptians (2) "To bring them up out of the land." (3) "To bring them into a good land and large—unto a land flowing with milk and honey" 3. God's commission Jo Moses (v. 10). "Come now, therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh that thou mayest bring forth my people, the children of Israel out of Egypt." III. Moses' Objections Patiently Heard and Removed (3'11.4'10). 1. Ills personal unworthiness v. 11. He said, "Who am I that I should go unto Pharaoh?" He realized his insufficiency for this task. Moses did not refuse to go, but laid his difficulty before the Lord. God answered this difficulty by assuring him that He would be with him. 2. The difficulty of the people to understand Moses' relationship to God (vy. 13.14). Moses knew how unwilling they were to acknowledge him as their deliverer forty years before. Since God changes his name as he assumes a new relationship to his people, Moses inquired as to what that new relationship would be and his correspond ing name. The Lord promptly met this difficulty by showing a name differing in many respects from all others previously given. This new name is "I am". This name is from the Hebrew "to be." It indicates: 1. Gods self existence. It sets forth the idea that God is the self existent one and the source of all existence. There is no existence apart from Him (2) Its self sufficiency. (2) He said, "I am that I am" (God is the unique one. He is not dependent upon any other existence. (3) I am unchangeable. "I am that I am" may be expanded to mean, I am what I always was. What I always was and am I always will be. The "I AM" of this passage is the Jesus Christ of the New Testament. Therefore the apostle could say, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever." 3. Unbelief on the part of the people (4:1). This difficulty the Lord met by supplying him with credentials which could not be grinsaid. He was given the power to perform supernatural wonders (4:2). 4. Lack of eloquence (4:10). He confessed that he was slow of speech and of a slow tongue. His ability to speak had not been improved by the Lord's message to him. The Lord's reply (v. 11) carried a real rebuke. He assured him that the God who had made man a month could give man the ability to use it. "This difficulty the Lord in his infinite patience met by providing an assistant in the person of his brother Aaron The Truth Next to the Crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ there is no truth that you and I need more to lay hold of than the truth of the Living Christ—alive today, and personally present with all who trust in Him—C. A. R. Jumfer. Need of Prayer Deeper than the need of man, deeper than the need of money, aye, deep down within this spiritless life of ours is the need of world wide prevailing prayer.—Robert E. Speer. Mr. Charley North, Mr. Paul Moman, Misses Persus and Celentine Lewis and Esther Chaves, went to Salina, Sunday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Williams and daughter, were here Sunday, visiting Mr. and Mrs. Sgt. Gibson and family. Mr. Jake Patterson is home from Kansas City, where he spent the 5th of July. Miss Irene Watson left Sunday noon for Chicago, Ill. Little Miss Beulah Douglas is going to visit her cousin in Washington, Kansas for a week, Monday. Mrs. Phoebe Douglas has returned home from St. Louis, Mo. Miss Goldie William is home from Hutner, Kansas, where she has been helping to harvest. Miss Edith Bell is home from Manhattan. Mr. Amos Tyler, Mr. Bernell Baskerville, and Mr. Frank Tyler went to Topeka, Sunday to visit the people who are attending Summer School there. Little Miss Frances White went to Junction City, to visit her cousin. Mrs. Dan Curtis came home sick from Topeka, Friday night. She is feeling pretty at this writing; her daughter, Miss Baibata Curtis, also, came with her. Mr. Albert Baskerville went to Salina, to visit his wife. The Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. were well attended although Rev. J. W. Johnson was out of town. The Missionary Cule met at the home of Mrs. R. D. Calvin, Friday afternoon. St. Mary Baptist Notes Rev. J. E. Douglas, Pastor. Sunday was a successful day with us beginning with Sunday School. Supt. Sister Evans was at her post with her staff of officers co-operating. Attendance good. Childhood and Education of Moses, the chief study. Lesson wonderfully reviewed by Pastor. At 11 o'clock service, Pastor took his text from the 7th chapter of Deut. Theme chosen from the 9th verse: "Know therefore that the Lord he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations." Chief theme was "Faithfulness." The Pastor preached a wonderful sermon putting much stress on faithfulness. Invitation was extended, four came forward. At 3:30, the City Wide Mission held its regular monthly meeting at Calvary Baptist Church. The Pastor and many of our members were present. At 6 o'clock, B. Y. P. U. opened by Christian Culture Course Conductor, Bto. J. H. Moore. We had a wonderful lesson in B. Y. P. U. Ever Loyal had charge of program which was splendid; they also won the banner for finance. At 8 o'clock service, after devotion our own Rev. Wm. Thompson was in the pulpit, chose his theme from 2nd Cor. 5:10: For we must appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that every one may receive the .... for the things done in his body according to that he hath done whether it be good or bad. Rev. Thompson preached a heart-searching sermon. Many visitors worshipped with us throughout the day. Our motto is only once a stranger. We regret very much to see Bro. W. E. London leave us; he left last Sunday evening at 1 o'clock to join his family in Los Angeles, California. They will make it their future home. Bro. London is a Christian gentleman. We are praying for his success. Sister J. E. Douglass is attending the Summer Bible School in Topcha; we are expecting her home this week and we miss her very much for her work in the church. All the sick people are reported as improving nicely. Everyone in our church is looking forward to the coming association which will convene at this church Aug. 10th to 14th. It seems that some of our agents and reporters are forgetting that they should help keep The Star going by getting some subscribers or by selling some extra copies each week. EZRA E.

OBITUARY MRS. SALLY COOPER-GREEN Was born in Shreveport, La., Feb. 2nd 1880. She, with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Cooper, moved to Cherryvale, Kansas in 1882, where she has since resided until her death. Mrs. Cooper-Green, when but a small girl, 11 years of age, was converted and united with the Bethlehem Baptist Church under pastorate of Rev. N. C. Robinson, who had departed thus life some 24 years ago. Since that time she has lived a faithful and consistent Christian, always willing and ready to do what her hands found to do. Mrs. Cooper-Green was deprived of her privilege of going to church in May, 1925 when he suffered a paralytic stroke, from which she never recovered; but all through her many months of suffering, the Lord in heaven knows she never failed to call upon or talk about her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Mrs. Green was also an active member in the W. H. and F. M. Society and B. Y. P. U. She was married to Mr. Forest Green in 1904. Her mother died 8 years ago, and since that time she has resided with her brother Joshue Cooper at 308 South Depot Street. On Monday evening at 9 p. m., the Death Angel silently stole into her room and claimed our dear sister, Salhe Cooper-Green at the age of 46 years, 7 months and 3 days. She leaves to mourn her loss, 2 brothers, Nathaniel Hawthorne Cooper of Weatherford, Oklahoma; Joshua Cooper, Cherryvale, Kansas; one niece, Mrs. Mabel Samora, Cherryvale; one nephew, Mr. Rhoderick Cooper of Chicago, Ill., and other relatives and a host of friends. Mrs. Green is not dead, only sleeping. Dear Sister, your toils are o'er; well as we loved you, God loved you best. He has taken you home to that heavenly rest. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon from the Bethlehem Baptist Church; officiated by Rev. Wm. Thomas. Burial was in Fairview Cemetery.—Contributed.

A GOOD TEST of your regligius standing is "As ye would that others do to you, do ye also to them." Let us take a prayerful examination. WITH all the difficulties of enforcement and with many problems arising in the efforts to secure proper observance, the actual beneficial results of prohibition have justified the efforts already made. Social conditions have improved. Politics are clearer. Economic benefits have been multiplied. The general moral conditions in America have been elevated. Even a superficial survey of the results of prohibition will show that it is certainly a substantial thought not a complete success. Even the casual observer must admit that there is less evidence now than formerly of the presence if the beverage liquor traffic, less evidence of drinking, brawls and disorders, and less evidence of the disturbances, accidents and fatalities that attended the use of liquor in pre-prohibition days."

One of them is the Sahara desert. The other is the old home place of the gentleman with the horns and the tail who is shown in the picture. Not even the fervid Imagination of a Florida real estate agent could paint those two places in a cordial enough light to make them salable to prospective residents. People just simply can't live without water and they know it. So the Sahara desert, three thousand miles in extent, is without a human habitation. And the other place-well, nobody goes there unless he has to. Essential as is water to human existence, it is not one whit more essential than is electric power to modern civilization.

It is the duty of the electric utility which bears at heart the interests of its community, to keep its development ahead of the demand for new power. The erection of a new super power plant at a cost of approximately $5,000,000, a new transmission line at a cost of approximately $2,000,000, and a development budget for the year 1925 of $2,000,000 more, are Kansas Gas and Electric Company's guarantees that YOUR town will never cease its growth for lack of the essential power.
