THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE TWO MEN NEARLY SUFFOCATED WHEN SHUT IN VAULT (Preston News Service) BALTIMORE, MD., Oct. 23—Locked in a vault at a factory in North Greene Street, Wednesday afternoon, Lawrence Brooks and William Smith, employees, were nearly suffocated. The manager of the plant told police that he believed someone locked the door of the vault who did not know that anyone was in the vault. The cries of the men could be heard throughout the building, and other employees became excited when they learned that neither the manager nor the police were able to open the metal door. The men finally broke the lock and effected their delivery alive. SEVEN DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH 1121 N. Wabash Avenue ELD. H. A. ROSSIN, PASTOR Services Sabbath (Saturday) School 10:00 a. m., Preaching 11:30 a. m. Sunday night services 7:45 p. m. Prayer Meeting Wednesday 7:45 p. m. Welcome to all services. The book of Acts is being studied by the Sabbath School for the last quarter of 1926. The Harvest Ingathering, a campa ign held in the Fall of each year for the purpose of gatherig fueds for mission work, is progressing nicely. The quota for the local church was $75.00 which has almost been realized. Last Sunday night Elder Rossin presented "Jesus the Light of the World," in his sermon. That Jesus Christ was the Author of physical light man's greatest earthly blessing and that this light is not as bright now as when first called into existence; and that Jesus who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined into our hearts, is the only Savior of men. "No one," declared the speaker, "denies the inestimable blessing this earth receives from the sun. Life, health, beauty, both in plant and animal life come from the sun. 'In Him was life; and the life was the light of men And the Light (Jesus) shineth in darkness (this world) and the darkness (this world) comprehended it not.' So accustomed are men in receiving the blessings of this life that they see not Jesus as the Benefactor." "Bible critics deny the book of Genesis, the only inspired record we have of creation; the Modernist deny the right to Jesus of being the only Savior of the world. "This doctrine (Salvation by Character) means that a good moral character, such as respectable people are supposed to have, is sufficient for salvation." (Modern Religious Liberalism page 98) Thus we see the Modernists have some other way of climbing up into heaven rather than by Jesus Christ. "In Him was life; and the life was the light of men;" St. John 1:4. Will you have it? St. Mary Church Notes Rev. J. E. Douglass, Pastor.

BLACKLIST MEDDLING PREACHERS ADVISES BISHOP W. T. VERNON (Preston News Service) By R. A. ADAMS INDIANAPOLIS, IND. Oct. 22—During the recent session of the Indiana Annual Conference, a minister had failed in raising his conference claims. This was brought to the attention of Bishop W. T. Vernon, who was presiding. It was also reported to him that certain ministers who had previously served this charge had visited the city quite often, had criticised the minister and otherwise interfered with his work. Rising up, his voice and his whole demeanor manifesting the indignation and the contempt he felt, Bishop Vernon declared, "Any minister who goes on the work of another and interferes with him in that way is a cuthroat and a murderer! Black list every meddling preacher and defeat him for every office and for every honor he seeks in the conference; for he is unworthy any consideration." REPORT HAITI.

It might be well for Negro voters to consider what this means. It was Pat Harrison of Mississippi, who speaks in Ohio for the Democratic candidate, Pomerene, who led the filibuster in the Senate, beginning on Nov. 27, 1922, resulting in the defeat of the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill. It has been Senator Pat Harrison who the opposition since that time that has time and again prevented the still further consideration of this bill. There nine roll calls in connection with the filibuster. Ever vote cast on the side of the filibuster was democratic, including those of Senators Harrison, King, of Utah, and Pomerene, although Pomerene managed to escape several votes by simply going out of the Senate Chamber at the time. The record shows that Pomerene was present every day during the filibuster and did nothing against it. It was Senator Pat Harrison who led the bitter fight against the confirmation of Judge James A. Cobb, whom President Coolidge appointed to succeed the late and lamented Judge Robert H. Terrell. Pat Harrison's tour of Ohio in behalf of Pomerene is an ill omen for the race. Senator Willis, Republican, stood for the Dyer Bill and put through the confirmation of Judge Cobb and also forced the Senate to investigate the NEGRO PATIENTS TO HAVE NEGRO DOCTORS IN PHILADELPHIA NEGRO PATIENTS TO HAVE NEGRO DOCTORS IN PHILADELPHIA (Preston News Service) PHILAELPHIA, PA., Oct. 15 Marked progress in tuberculosis prevention work among Negroes as a result of the employment of medical attendants of their own race is revealed in reports made public last Saturday by Dr. Charles J. Hatfield, former president of the National Tuberculosis Association and now Director of the Henry Phipps Institute of the University of Pennsylvania.

The total now reached more than 2,600 annually since employment of Negro doctors and nurses. was reduced $2,500,000 and public income increased $2,500,000 Dr. Mead advised in a letter to the Secretary of the Interior. High tribute to the officials who have been responsible for bringing about this condition was paid by Dr. Mead. Among these officials were President Louis Berne, W. W. Cumberland, Financial Adviser; Commander F. H. Cooke, U. S. N. public works; Dr C. S. Butler, sanitary engineer; and Knowles Ryerson, bureau of Agricultural technique. The report said that the first task was to bring honesty and efficiency into the administration of the Haitian Government. The next step was to create conditions which would make healthful and orderly living possible. According to Dr. Mead Port-Au-Prince is as clean and sanitary and as beautiful as Washington, D. C. THE ADVERTISER'S HURRY! Improved Uniform International Sunday School Lesson (By REV. F. B. FITZWATER DD, Dean of Day and Living & School, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) 1924 Western Newspaper Union Lesson for October 24 JOSHUA, ISRAEL'S NEW LEADER LESSEN TEXT—Num 27 13-29. Joshua 1 1-9 GOLDEN TEXT—Be strong and of a good courage be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed for the Lord, thou is with thye withernoever thou guest PRIMARY TOPIC—Joshua the New Leader JUNIOR TOPIC—The Task of Joshua INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Secret of a Strong and Useful Life YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Preparation for True Service. The book of Joshua, from which our lesson is taken, is a history of the conquest of the promised land and its division among the tribes of Israel. It takes its name from its principal character, Joshua. 1. Joshua, the New Leader of Israel (Num. 27 18 20) The people were not to be left in doubt as to a leader when Moses was gone. The leader was to be pointed and given recognition before all the congregation. During the wilderness journey Joshu on was Moses minister and the captain of his army. When Moses was dented the privilege of going over the Jordan, Joshu was appointed to the leadership of Israel. Moses, the representative of the law, brought Israel to the borders of Canaan. Joshu was the man chosen to lead the people into the place of rest. The name "Joshu" has the same derivation as the name "Joseus." II. Joshua Commanded to Take Charge (Josh. 1:2) Moses was dead, but God's work must go on, therefore God issued the command for the new leader to us same his duty. III. God Renews His Promise to Israel Concerning the Land (Josh 1:3-4). This promise had been given to Abraham and renewed to Isaac, Jacob and Moses. It is now renewed to be ruel as they were about to enter upon its possession. The borders of the land were "from the wilderness and this Labon even unto the great river, the River Imphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun." The nearest this territory was ever possessed was during the reign of David and Solomon, though not then fully realized. This land still belongs to the Jews, and in God's own time they shall possess it. Their possession of this land was due entirely to themselves. God promised them that wherever their feet stood upon the land it was their. IV. God's Presence Promised (Josh 1:3). Joshua was entering upon a perilous and difficult enterprise, but the Lord said as He was with Moses, so he would be with him. The difficulties before him were: 1. The Jordan river (v. 2). This river was now at its flood (Josh 3:15), making it impossible for animals to cross. 2. The people were flying in walled cities (Num 13:28) Notwithstanding this, God was ready to insure success (1) "I will not fall thee, nor for sake thee" (v. 5). (2) "There shall not any man be able to stand before thee." (3) "As I was with Moses, so I will be with thee." Joshua had been with Moses throughout their forty years' experience from the Egyptian deliverance to the time of his death. Because he believed that God was with his master, he was willing and ready to cross the Jordan at its floodtide and courageously meet the enemies on the other side. V. Conditions of Blessing in the Land (Josh, 1:09). 1. "Be strong and of good courage" (v. 6). His mission was to go in and divide the land among the tribes for an inheritance. It required strength and courage to do this. 2. "Unwavering obedience to the Word of God (v. 7). In a kind of idolatry it required much courage to be true to God. Prosperity and success were conditioned upon unwavering obedience to God's commands. In all his work he must conform his life to the law of God. To pass from the path outlined there in would bring disaster and ruin. In order to accomplish this the law of the Lord must be in his mouth continually. He was to meditate therein day and night. Josina tendered prompt obedience, he did not stop to caval, but at once gave order for the march. God made the plan and gave the directions.

With such players and Richey, quarterback and Buchanan, captain and center, coupled with the good playing and support of the other members of the Wilberforce squad Wilberforce should win. The Lincoln aggregation is putting much faith in the cleverness of Captain Graster, who stars at center this season. The alumni of both institutions are making big preparations for the football game. Friends and admirers of both institutions in Pittsburgh and surrounding towns are making preparation to be on hand in large numbers to root for their favorite school. BY EZRA E.

Aesop the Modern Electric Company Service" The Negro Star—For the good of the people 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.
