Tribune, the old lie that white women cannot walk with safety in the South for fear of attack, a white woman has written to the sauce newspaper. This woman, Dr. Carrie K. Bart- lett, not only reports that for years she taught and moved freely among Negroes in Arkansas and North Car- colina without ever‘recelving anything but courteous treatment and acsis- tance; but adds that it is the colored ‘women who fear attack from white tren, not the white women who need to fear attack from Negroes, says Dr. Bartlett: “I never received from a Negto man or woman anything but'the most perfectly courteocs treatment, bat I learned from the colored maids of the friend with whom I was living of # situation for which I wish we might find a remedy, These colored ‘women are afraid to go on the streets alone after dark for fear of attack by white men. Most of the maids go home at night. They believe that they do not have as good police protection ‘a8 do white women, and for mutual protection get together and go home fn groups. It seems to me that it is the colored, not the white, women of the South’ for whose safety we ghould be concerned.” Cs Fifteen years ago, Mr. Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago, made his of- fer of $25,000 to any city that would ralse $75,000 for a Branch Building for the Y¥.-M.C, A. serving Colored men and boys. “15 such building have been erected, cSsting over three Mil- Jions of Dollars, The Colored Men's Department {s observing this 15th ‘Anniversary by secking to secure @ capacity membership in every build- ing to the extent of seeking to gol- Campaign is being conducted Oct. 16, 1925. ‘The local branch is participat- ing to the exttnt of secking to col- lect all pledges by Dec, 81.

Williams, of Coffeyville, Kansas, Pastor of the Calvary Baptist Ch. who recently conducted a great revi- val at the Compton Hill Baptist Ch., St. Louis, Mo. Dr. Williams is in a class by himself as an evangelist. His sermons are clear-cut, original and powerful. He preaches with all his soul and energy. He is well educate and well regenerated and is without a doubt called of God to preach the Gospel. He is modest in sport. Our golfing-champions, our swimming champions are generally considered the champions of the world. «But the physical perfection neces- sary to become a champ.on in aay field of physical activity is not a mat- ter of accident or change. Back of every champion you will find a ground work of sound physical development which has been maintained by con- ent exercise and intelligent train- ing Every normal boy bas the desire to attain a high degree of physical fitness, Many, however, are handi- capped by lack of proper information on training iules and care of the body. The U. S, Public Health Service has prepared a publication to fill this very need, This pubheation entitled, “Keeping Fit” gives authoritative in- formation on sound physical develop- ment, illustrated with numerous charts, diagrams, and pictures. Oth- er Smportant information on personal hyigiene with special chapters on sex hygiene for the growing boy ahd young man are included, Readers may obtain this publication free of charge by writing to the U.S, Pub- INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE Sixteen countries were represent- ed in the international Student Con- ference at Tartu University, Estho- nla, by student delegates and repre- sentatives of student organizations, reported Harry S. Warner, Educa- tlonal Sceretary of the Intercolleg- late Prohibition Association, Student Department of the World League Against Alcoholism, who was one of the official delegates of the United States government to the Eighteenth International Anti-Alcohol Congress and the member for the United Btates of the International Student Committee, “This conference of students, he says, “waa more effective and had a lerger number of delegates than any of the other three International Stu+ manner, temperate in his habits and Strong In his convictions of the truth. Souls were edified and saved thro’ his sermons and Bible Lessons. Dr. Williams is a Biblical expert, “He makes the Bible his constant study, and preaching his hobby. The Compton Hill Baptist Church, and St. Louis, are better because he preached here, We are reluctant to let him return home, but we happily anticipate his return to us soon. Dr. Williams holds his congrega- dent Conferences held since the war. Its representation was largely from Central, Northern and Eastern Eu- rope, but this was strategic and promising rather than otherwise, be- cause of the new interest and grow- ing organization against drink that is found among students in many of those countries, the new counties, Finland, Esthonia, Latvina,, Lithunia, Poland, Czochoslovakia and Jugosla- via, that were caryed out of old Europe by revolution and the World War along that whole line of cleav- age between the East and the West that extends from the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean, are making the fight against drink a part of their program to develop national strength and to preserve their hard won in- dependence. This spirit of healthy nationalism {s especially keen among students; it promises much for the future, ° “The conference adopted strong resolutions requecting that #)slem- atic instruction be given In various departments of universities of all counties on the subject of alcohol and drink in the life of a nation; that it be taken up in each department such as medicine, economics, philosphy and psychology, with lectures and in- structions In the latest findings of selentific research according to the field of that particular deparment, Jt urged that students themselves encourage discussion and study, combat drink ¢ustoms and traditions and seek the establishment of stu- dent activities that shall be free from the soclal drink Influences of past ages.” HOWARD 7" Largp ere Uivataduvaa a ‘ OPENING (NLA.

JEWISH MAIDEN DECLARES HER LOVE FOR DE- NAIR RACE MAN DUQUESNE, PA, Oct, 14—-What is sald to be a genuine romance had {ts beginting ‘back in school days, came to light In the elopement of pretty Bertha Soffer, a clever Jewish maiden, eged 19, and John Rankin, aged 21, According to police reports Miss Soffer went to New York September 4 to yisit with an aunt, her father's sister, A few days later she fs sald to have written to Rankin, who then went to New York. It is claimed that when Rankin made his third visit to Miss Soffer at the home of her aunt she was chastised for permitting him to call daily, Finnally the aunt re- monstrated with the girl, but with no avail, The girl then left her aunt's home. This was about the middle of September, The sunt then telephon- ed to her brother, the girl's father, and told him of the circumstances, ‘The father, Sam Soffer, took up the matter with the District Attorney's office of Allegheny County. He swore out a warrant for the arrest of Ran- kin charging him with seduction, the girl being under 21 years of age. New York police soon located the couple and placed them under arrest. Mr. Soffer has gone to New York and declares that he wilt prosecute Ran- kin, Miss Soffer declares that she will stick with Rankin, no matter what happens. “We attended school together and have been ardent lovers from childhood and I propose to mar- ry Mr. Rankin despite the protests of my parents and relatives. I love John and he loves me,” on tor of the Oklahoma Association de- livered a great sermon to a large crowd. The building was filled to overflowing. Dr, Perry is in a clashs clone; as few preachera can sway an audience as he does, Friday, Oct, 8, Prof, E. E. Weaver the Principal of Kansas Vocational School addressed the Convention, His remarks were very earnest and in- structive, He earnestly exhorted the peoplpe to send their children to the Vocational School, and he urged that the young ministers attend the Central Baptist Theological Semina- ry, located across the street from the Vocational School at Topeka. Dr. Enos Scruggs of Jefferson, Mo. who was recently elected Dean of the Central Baptist Seminary, made an earnest appeal for the support and co-operation of the Baptists of Kan- sas in building up the school and he slso urged upon young ministers to go to school that’ they might be pre- pared to shoulder the pressing need of today, Dr. J. T. Crawford made a very appreciative address. He said he was always glad tq meet us in our Con- vention and he was deeply concerned about the work and success of our Convention and we could always depend on him to co-uperate with us along all lines for the promotion of the Kingdom of our Lord; that he thought it would not be long before we could do our work without the ald of the White Convention or the White Baptists. In the afternoon, Oct. 8, Rev, A. L. Branch of Topeka, made a very bril- Nant address on “Living For Christ on the Forelgn Field.” ‘The report of Missionary and Fi- nance Committee showed that more than Ten Thousand Dollars had been collected for the year ending Oct. 10, 1926, Rey, D, B.

(Q. 1936 Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for October 17 MOSES HONORED IN HIS DEATH LESSON TEXT—Deut 34 1-13 GOLDEN TEXT—Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints PRIMARY TOPIC—Moses Bees the Promised Land JUNIOR TOPIC—The Death of Moses INTERMEDIATE AND BENIUR TOPIC—Lessons from the Life of Moses YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—What the World Owes Moses 1. Moses Views the Promised Land From Mount Pisgah (sv, 1-4). At the Lord's bidding Moses ascended the mountain from which he got a view of the promised land. He obeyed, though he knew that he was to die there (Deut. 32:50). He greatly desired to go into the land (Deut. 3:23) but graciously submitted to the will of the Lord. Though he was not permitted to enter the land, God gave him a view in its fullest dimensions of the land which was to be the inheritance of the people which he had delivered and led for forty years. The reason given by the Lord for refusing an entrance into the land was Moses' failure to sanctify the Lord at Meribah (Deut. 32:51, cf. Num. 20:113). This was too glaring a sin for the Lord to pass over, though Moses had served Him faithfully for many years. 11. The Death and Burial of Moses (vv 5-9). 1 Illus death (v. 5). 1. His death (v. 6). Though he died in the vigor of manhood, his work was done. He did not die before his time. God put him into the world for a purpose, and as soon as that work was done He called him home. Though Moses was a great man he was not exempt from death. 2. The burial of Moses (v. 6). God buried film. Most likely this service was performed by the angels. Likely this is the time and circumstance when the devil contended with Michael, the archangel, over the body of Moses (Jude 9). 3. The time of mourning for Moses (v. 8). They mourned for thirty days. It is not wrong to lay away earthly friends even with tents, but as Christians we should not mourn as those who have no hope. Indeed, it is much better to express our appreciation and love for our friends by showing the proper courtesy and respect while they are alive, than to mourn over them when they are dead. III. The Successor of Moses (v. 0). Joshua, who had been the minister of Moses during all the years of the wilderness journey, now became the military leader of the Israelites. That Joshua was a fit man as a leader of the Israelites is seen. 1. By the fact that he was full of the spirit of wisdom. While the Lord is not dependent upon human wisdom, He does select as His representatives men whom He has endowed with the proper wisdom. 2. He was divinely ordained for the work of the hand of Moses, "for Moses had laid his hands upon him." This he had done at the command of God (Num. 27;1821). 3. The people owned him as their leader. "The children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the Lord commanded Moses." In order for successful leadership a ruler must have the individual affection and allegiance of the people. IV. Encomium Upon Moses (vv. 10-12). In this eulogy Moses is given a place at the heads of the Old Testament prophets. With the exception of the Greater Prophet (Deut. 18;15-18), of whom Moses was a type, he stands as the greatest prophet of Israel. 1. He was great because of his intimacy with God (v. 10), "whom the Lord knew face to face." 2. He was great in that he gave to the world a code of laws unequaled in the world's history. 3. He was great as a general in that he liberated the Israeli nation from the oppression of the greatest nation of the earth. 4. He was great because he led two or three million Israelites through the desert for forty years. 5. He was great because he gave to us in the book of Denteronomy three orations which, according to the judgment of competent critics, stand at the head of the world's literature. Faith What a wonderful ship is faith. She discovers worlds beyond anything found by Columbus. What a freight she carries. Itches beyond the treasures of Solomon's ships of gold. To what a glorious realm she transports. —W. L. Watkinson.

GREAT OPENING (Commission on Interracial Cooperation) ALL, GA., Oct, 5-The State Industrial College for Negroes opened here yesterday with an enrollment of 250 and prospects for the best year in its history. Benjamin I. Hubert, former head of the agricultural department of Tuskegee Institute, has just become President of the institution, and a number of new teachers, well trained and competent, have been added to the staff, including specialist in home economics, chemistry, physics, agriculture, and other subjects. Among the new members of the staff are Miss Anna Dixon, graduate of the University of Buffalo and of Columbia, who will head the work in some economics and supervise the preparation of meals; Miss Julia Manley, graduate of Tuskegee and of Atlanta University, who will have charge of the work in history and education; Mrs. C. D. Haynes, Dean of Women; Miss Iona Greene, graduate of Wilberforce, who will be secretary of the school and assistant in the school of business. The physical equipment of the institution has been greatly improved, many of the buildings having been remodeled. Plans are under way to develop the students' natural aptitude for music. A choir, glee club, band and orchestra are to be organized, and public concerts will be given from time to time. Physical training will be emphasized also, and steps will be taken to build a strong football team. In discussing plans for the improvement of the institution, President Hubert says: "Georgia has long needed a real college of agriculture and industry that would make it possible for colored boys and girls to secure training at home for the every day tasks of life. We ask for the hearty and generous support of the friends of education in the effort to build up such an institution as will make for greater prosperity, happiness and contentment for all. While agriculture, home economics and the mechanical arts will be stressed, it will be stressed, it will be our aim also to maintain standard, high grade work along the academic lines, fitting students to enter any of the higher institutions." BIBLE CLASS WORK The Women's Bible Class No. 1 of Calvary Baptist Church, also called "Willing Workers" held their regular meeting at the home of Mrs. M. Strothers, 1035 N.

(Com. on Interracial Cooperation) CHAFEL HILL, N. C. Oct. 15—Charles C. Spaulding, Jr., son of the President of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co., was one of the speakers at the recent Y. M. C. A. Conference at the University of North Carolina, making the first time a colored student had ever spoken at this great institution. Just back from the World Y. M. C. A. Conference at Helsingfors, he spoke on "World Outlook" as seen from that notable gathering, where forty nationalities were represented. His address was in fine spirit, thoughtful and splendidly expressed, and was heard with great interest and appreciation. Among other things he said: "My trip to Europe has inspired me. It has given me an increasing appreciation of my fellow-man and the Gospel of Jesus Christ; a Gospel that uplifts and beautifies the lives of men. As this Gospel is translated into unselfish and genuine cooperation the world outlook becomes brighter and brighter ... Someone her said that the world is growing better and worse all the time.

THE KU KLUX KLAN TICKET No man who seeks or accepts the endorsement of the Ku Klux Klan is entitled anything but contempt from liberty-loving citizens, whether these citizens be white or colored, Protestant or Catholic, Jew or Gentile. We should make every candidate show where he stands. If he is endorsed by the "Invisible Empire," and claims that he did not seek the endorsement, don't let him sneak around and tell you on the Q. T., that it's all a mistake. He got whatever benefit that might be derived from Klan sympathizers, but this published endorsement, therefore, if he is sincere, he should not hesitate to publicly denounce this endorsement in the public press. We should no longer allow such men to successfully carry water on both shoulders! Wichita Klavern No. 6, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, recently announced its support of the following State and County candidates that are to be voted upon in the general election, November 2nd. In cases where there is no contest they endorsed the only man running for the office, and in some cases they made no choice, but you will find below a list of candidates that was endorsed that does have opposition.
