U., capacity with Miss Mattle L. Bradshaw, the efficient president, presiding. This was a real constructive program filled with demonstrations and advanced thoughts from the most able in the state. Rev. B. L. Marchant and Editor Sims of Wichita, were the special invited guests on the program and they rendered valuable services. This district has the biggest number in the state and more real talent, consequently they are able to lead in every way. Miss Bradshaw is backed up by an efficient set of officers and cannot fail. Her address was a masterpiece and will appear in this paper. Lev. S. Montgomery, Kansas City, launched the introductory Sermon and it was a real messenger. It was wonderful to see the Juniors with Jones, President carry out their program. The most outstanding number on the program was the Songfast Contest between City B. Y. Y. P. U., of Kansas City and City B. Y. P. U. of Topeka. Wednesday was another full day with the Sunday School Convention performing its well planned and instructive program under the leadership of Mrs. Rosa Jones and her splendid cabinet. Editor H. T. Sims taught the Bible, the subject was: "The Uplifted Christ." Miss L. Pigue demonstrated a Model Sundoy School, with all its divisions. Especially do we mention the Cradle Roll play put on by Mrs. Walker and her son and helpers. The Query box proved to be very inspiring. Echoes from the State Convention were inspiring. The Sermon by Rev. B. L. Marchant was the climax. The women's department and the Association were in session later, report of which, we hope to get soon. APPRECIATION WE thank you friends for your support and are asking that you remember us to your friends before the general election. Nominees: BEARD for Commissioner, BOWMAN, Register of Deeds, WERTZ, for County Attorney, BAYMAN, Clerk of the City Court, HORN, County Clerk. URBAN LEAGUE'S WORK FOR NEGROES EXPAND PITTSBURGH, PA., Aug. 6- Miss Grace N. Lowrdes, of the staff of the Urban of Pittsburgh, who for the past eight years has acted social worker among delinquent Negroes in the city. The Urban League, organized for social work among colored people, maintained Miss Lowndes at the Morals Court for the purpose of demonstration and experimentation. Miss Lowndes this month, in co-operation with the Morals Court, has begun a study of causes contributing to Negro delinquency, court procedure and treatment, and results obtained. It is hoped that her new work will ultimately be adopted in co-operation not only with Morals Court, but with other courts in the city dealing with Negro problems. On the basis of the study Miss Lowndes is now making, the Urban League proposes to build up a city-wide program for constructive efforts to decrease crime among Negroes and to facilitate court procedure. The Urban League is now under new management and has taken on new life with increased activities. The work done in the past has demonstrated the need of such an institution. NEGRO ARTISTS' STRIKE CLOSES HOWARD THEATRE NEGRO ARTISTS' STRIKE CLOSES HOWARD THEATRE (Preston News Service) WASHINGTON, Aug. 5-Howard Theatre is strike-bound, pending settlement of its management with the American Federation of Musicians. Ticket-holders for the week had their money refunded. This house was non-union, but when a union orchestr from New York, arrived with a revue from that city, the visiting musicians' union, under instructions from President Weber of the A. F. of M. called out all local musicians who had been hired to replace the New Yorkers. The management tried to run the show with a few non-union players, but failed and turned down the lights for the week. The time is rapidly approaching for the 23d annual session of the Southwest District Association. This comes to remind you that you have a definite responsibility in extending the Kingdom of God throughout the world. You can only do this by doing your duty in this particular district. We are asking therefore, that the Pastors and Presidents be diligent to lay before the church, its responsibility for the collection of $1.25 annually from each of its members for Mission and Education. God is depending upon us. Shall we fail him? ATTENTION!! CO-LABORERS 35TH ANNIVERSARY CAMPAIGN KANS. BAPT. W. H. F. MISSION CONVENTION. K. C. K.

TAKES VACATION Due to the fact that I returned to the duties of my profession, before I had fully covered from the accident 1 year ago last June; and a recent attack of Bell's Palsy, makes it necessary for me to spend at least a month and recuperting. I am therefore leaving for Colorado. My patients may see me again at my office after Sept. 8th, I take this opportunity thank my patients for their speedy return to me for professional services. On my return I hope to be normal again, and prepared to give you continued as well as efficient service. OFFICE OF COR. SECRETARY 171J Wabash Ave. Wichita, Kansas. July 15th, 1926. Improved Uniform International Sunday School Lesson [B]S REV, P B FITZWAFTR, DD, Dean of Day and Evening Schools, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago] (3) 1928, Western Newspaper Union) Lesson for August 8 THE GIVING OF MANNA them, am the bread of life the MASS TOPIC—God's Gift of Daily Dairy JUNIOR TOPIC—God Sends Food in the Wilderness I. Lusting for the Flashpots of Egypt (vv. 1-12). I. Murmuring against Moses and Aaron (vv. 1-3). As they journeyed from Elim into the great wilderness, they became conscious of the scarcity of some of the things they had enjoyed even in Egyptian slavery. Only a few days before they were singing God's praises for their wondrous deliverance at the Red Sea (Ex. 15). Their complaint not only displayed ingratitude but a deep-seated implety. It was against God that they were murmuring, for He had led them into the wilderness. His object in so doing was to teach them to walk by faith instead of sight. They went so far as to express the wish that they had died in Egypt with full stomachs rather than to be walking in the wilderness by faith. 2. God's answer to their murmurings (vv. 4, 12). (1) He promised to rain bread from heaven (vv. 4, 5). His purpose in this was to teach them that man liveth not by bread alone, but by every word that proceeded out of the mouth of the Lord (Deut. 8:3). (2) He promised to give them a vision of His glory (vv. 6:10). This served as a warning and encouragement. Moses and Aaron told the children of Israel that the glory of the Lord should be seen in the morning as a reminder that their murmuring was against the Lord and not against themselves. (3) He promised them flesh and bread (vv. 11, 12). "At even ye shall eat flesh and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread." 11. Qualla and Manna Given (vv. 13 15). At the appointed time God gave the Israelites the promised food. He first allowed them to feel their need to show them that man's highest need is not physical food, but living faith and fellowship with God. 1. In the evening the qualls came up (v. 13). Since they desired flesh, He gave them flesh to eat. God frequently caters to the desires of his people, knowing that the best way to teach them is to allow them to be filled with their own folly. 2. In the morning God gave the manna (vv. 14, 15). The Israelites did not know what it was. They therefore exclaimed, What is it? Moses told them that it was the bread which the Lord had given them to eat. III. The Responsibilities of the Israelites (vv. 10:31) 1. They must gather a certain rate daily (v. 16). The purpose of this was to test their faith. They must look to Illim for their daily bread (Matt. 6:11). 2. Every man must gather for himself (v. 16). This teaches us the important lesson that every man must appropriate Christ for himself. 3. They must not gather in excess of one day's supply (vv. 19:20). That which was in excess of a day's supply became corrupt. The Christian must use what gifts the Father bestows upon him. Christian grace and Bible truth must not be hounded up—they are good only when put to use. 4. The manna must be gathered fresh every morning (v. 21). This was to be done early before the sun was up. So must we seek Christ, who is our manna, every day and the first thing in the day (John 6:57). 5. The manna must be eaten to preserve life. They were in a wilderness, so could live only by the eating of the food which God gave. It is so with Christ (John 6:53). 6. Due consideration should be given to the Sabbath day (iv. 22:31). A double portion was to be gathered the day before so as to keep inviolate the Sabbath day. IV. Manna Kept as a Memorial (vv. 32-80). This was to be kept as a reminder of God's favor in feeding them in the wilderness, even for supplying them with bread for forty years until they reached the promised land To Give All The love of the base spirit is the desire to take all it can. The love of the nobler spirit is the desire to give all it can. If one life shines the next life to it must catch the light. It is the infection of excellence. Doing good in this life is the best preparation for the life to come. Salina, Kansas News. ST. JOHN BAITISF CHURCH Rev. M. T. Watera, Pastor. 9:45 a. m. Sunday School was opened by Supt. Browner and his corps of teachers. The lesson was beautifully taught to interesting scholars. 11 a. m. Morning service was opened by the Senior Choir. Scripture read by the Pastor; 5th chapter of Matt. 13th verse; "Ye are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted?" Subject for morning theme; "Salt Without Savor." I.—A great judgment as to the actual state of Society. II. A lofty plane as to what Christ's followers are able to do. II. Society is corrupt. IV. Society is tending to corruption. V. Any kind of organization without Jesus Christ ahead of it is corrupt. VL The presence of a good man has the power to hinder the progress of the devil. (a) It is possible to lose saving influence. (b) Christian men and women practice in the Lord. Many truths were spoken by the Pastor. Sck List—Bro. Den Wellington is in the hospital. Claude Peters was taken to the hospital where he will remain for several days. Joe Green is not feeling very well. Sister Oma Brummell is not doing so well at present. The Summer Drive is still on at St. John Baptist Church. Bro. Jno. Rodes, leader of 103 women reported that they are very enthusiastic and they are looking forward for a great success. His workers are divided into 10 groups with five persons in a group and their captains. The remaining persons have not selected their group yet; but they are willing to do their part. Mrs. Essie Bryant is the leader of the men and will make her report later. Pastor Waters attended the Convention at Aitchison.
