THE NEGRO STAR. FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol. 20, No. 31, PICKENS IN GARY IN FIGHT ON SEGREGATION PICKENS IN GARY IN FIGHT ON SEGREGATION (N. A. C. P.) NEW YORK, Oct. 21-William Pickens, Field Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has represented the National Office in helping to organize the legal fight against the projected segregation of colored High School students in Gary, Indiana, demanded by Ku Klux Klan-inspired white students in a "strike." Mr. Pickens reports to the National Office that "there need to b3 no foolish optism about this Gary matter; all the mill heads and the 'big' white folks are for putting out the colored children, I hear. This is the chance they have been looking for and since the thing has been started they do not wish to miss the opportunity of getting rid of these Negro children in the high school. Just why, they do not say, and perhaps do not know, but at any rate it is in their bones to want to do so; it is the way of things in Indiana where segregation has been permitted to go so far." Mr. Pickens has been aiding the local Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. in organizing a finance committee and inviting other organizations to cooperate in the struggle. SCHOOL RACIAL BAN LAW BEFORE SUPREME COURT SCHOOL RACIAL BAN LAW BEFORE SUPREME COURT (Preston News Service) WASHINGTON, D. C., Ort. 21—Whether states can prohibit children of other races from attending public schools provided for white children, will be decided by the U. S. Supreme Court. The controversy reached the court in a case from the Rosedale School District in Bolivar County, Miss., where the school authorities required a child of Chinese descent to attend the public school provided for Negroes. It was submitted for decision without oral argument. Council representing Mrs. Martha Lum, daughter of Gong Lum, an American citizen of Chinese descent, contended in a brief that the child had been unlawfully excluded from a white public school. Counsel for the school authorities insisted in his brief that State laws for the segregation of children by races in the public schools of Mississippi were valid and that a child of Chinese descent must go to a school provided for Negro children. COL. ROOSEVELT RAPS AT GOV. SMITH (Columbia Press Bureau) WASHINGTON, Oct. 22—As temporary chairman of the Republican State Convention, recently held at Rochester, N. Y., Col. Theodore Roosevelt referred to the professed friendship of Governor Smith for the negroes as follows: "At this moment the leader of the Democratic Party in this state aspires to be the nominee of that party for the Presidency. He has professed that he is the friend of the Negroes of this state. If there is sincerity in this profession he should at once publicly demand of his national party justice for Negroes in the South. He will not do this, because he does not wish to offend the southern delegates whose votes at the convention, he wants." WILCOX—KEELE The marriage of Miss Katherine Mae Keele, daughter of Rev, and Mrs. A. M. Keele of Caldwell, Kansas, to Mr. Roy Wilcox of Wichita, was solemnized Sunday, Oct. 16, at 7:30 at the home of the bride's parents. The marriage ceremony was read by Rev, J. L. Williams, Pastor of Pleasant View Baptist Church. The wedding music was played by Mr. John Chandler, violinist, accompanied by Miss Alpha Keele, the bride's sister. The bride's dress was of pink chiffon and white, veil corresponding. She carried a shower bouquet of pink and white roses. The color scheme was carried out in the decorations of the home and refreshments were served. Some out of town guests were present. Mr. and Mrs. Wilcox will reside in Wichita, this winter. --- ```markdown ``` Twenty-fifth Annual Session OF THE SMOKY HILL RIVER MISSIONARY BAPTIST DISTRICT ASSOCIATION and its AUXILIARY CONVENTIONS TO BE HELD WITH THE Lake Providence Baptist Church, Ellis, Kansas Rev.

SPECIAL APPEAL All balance due the Association for 1926 and 1927 has been canceled, hoping you will make a Special effort to pay up in full the amount asked of you at this session as we cannot meet our obligations to the State Convention and District and Pastors. Therefore it will be impossible for the Pastors to stay on their small fields of labor. We are asking the church and its auxiliaries and every Minister and Deacon to do his best to pay according to the Association levy. Each Church shall be responsible for its auxiliaries. Each Minister and Deacon is requested to send up 25 cents each quarter or One Dollar for the year by their Pastors. By this means only is the Ministers and Deacons' Union supported; and unless this appeal is met by one hundred per cent, we can not assist our Missionary Pastors; and therefore the small fields will be void of the Gospel Service and Kingdom Building. Send all moneys and letters to me at 615 West 10th St. Junction City, Kansas, until Nov. 7th, 1927. Then after that date send to me at Ellis, Kans.

Armstrong, aged 54, employee of the Imperial Oil and Gas Company of Sterlington, says that Richard Turner, an aged Negro, saved his life Wednesday, following an explosion in a "hot house" at the plant. Armstrong's clothes were 'afire,' frightened, he fled and as he ran the flames grew larger. Turner tackled the fleeing man, threw him to the ground, tore the burning garments from his body, and wrapped him in an old piece of carpet. Turner received several painful burns. WAKE COUNTY NEGROES HOLD ANNUAL FAIR (Preston News Service) RALEIGH, N. C., Oct. 21—The Wake County Fair Association held its third annual fair here last week. This county fair takes the place of the great state fair, which has not been held for two years. The fair opened at noon Tuesday, with a full quota of exhibits and fair features. A. A. Anderson, secretary of the association, says that this was one of the most successful fairs ever held. The exhibits were exceptionally fine and a large quantity for all parts of the county. HAS PICKED COTTON NEARLY 100 YEARS HAS PICKED COTTON NEARLY 100 YEARS (Preston News Service) SHELBY, N. C., Oct. 21—Few people like to work at any single task for a day or a week. When you do anything for a quarter of a century with a few years thrown in for good measure, you should become an adept for turning out that particular work. Mrs. Caroline Arnold, aged 102 years, has been picking cotton each season, well over three-quarters of a century and at her advanced age she can still hold her with most of the youngsters. Last Thursday Mrs. Arnold, the aged worker, picked 145 pounds of cotton in one day. Just how long she has been picking cotton the timeworn woman does not know. She started many many years ago as a cotton picker on an old southern plantation when a child. One guess is that she might have been five years old when she started as it was the custom in slavery days to start the slave children picking cotton as soon as they were big enough to toddle. If she started as was the custom, she has been picking cotton for 97 years, just three years shy of a century. COMBINATION PROGRAM AT CALVARY It was fortunate for over one hundred to have been present last Monday night to hear Mrs. Dollie Brown, Contralto, who has a voice of Quality. She seemed to be able to place her tones at will and gave a wonderful combination program. She began her program with "Dawn," and brought out "The Star," and let us see "A Spirit of Flower," then invited "Come Beloved," "Care Selva" ending with us "His Lullaby." Mrs. Ethyl Steemer was at her best self in her readings: 1st "The Allo Plant." 2nd A one act play, "Mary Magdalene." As a dramatic reader she made for herself a new name and record. She is specializing in dramatic art and she convinced the audience that it is her natural talent. Mrs. Dollie Brown brought to us, "Deep River" and "Crucifixion" which was meant to reach the soul. Then a love song was sweet: "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice." The humorous section took in "Run Mary Run," and Mah Lindy Lou." These two numbers did not exactly belong to the service of God nor would they make you think on nobler things. The breach between them and the preaching of the Gospel would make them eligible to be questioned in the house of the Lord. Her last four numbers were "Monotone," "Danny Boy," "Rosary" and "A Voice at Even." As a whole it was a very entertaining evening. Mrs. Brown sang Wednesday at Wichita University; this morning at Wichita High School. Sunday morning, she will sing at two of the outstanding white churches of the city. NOTICE!! DISTRICT BOARD MEETING. The First Board of Southwestern District Association is called to meet with Second Baptist Church, Eldorado, Kansas, Rev. J. R. Martin, Pastor, Nov. 17, 18, 1927—With all Auxiliaries of the Association. CIGARETTE SMOKING MOTHERS (Columbia Press Bureau) WASHINGTON—Alarmed because of the excessive infant mortality rate throughout the country among all classes of people, Dr. Chauncey L. Barber (white, of the American Association for Medico Physical Research, made the startling announcement at the recent annual convention of the association that sixty per cent of all babies born from cigarette-smoking mothers is sick, declared Dr. Barber. "It is poisoned and may die within two weeks of birth. The post-mortem shows degeneration of the liver, heart and other organs. SIXTY per cent of all babies born to cigarette-smoking mothers die before they are two years old. Five Cents Per Copy ENTERTAINING FARMERS (Columbia Press Bureau) WASHINGTON—Colored farmers who have radio equipment will be interested to learn that eighty-three selected radio stations in thirty-four states will broadcast one or more of the 11 regular farm and household radio services prepared and released by the United States Department of Agriculture. The program began October 3, when the first of Uncle Sam's farm radio service features went on the air. The 1927-28 program, which is more comprehensive and extensive than last season's will continue until April 30, 1928, and it is expected that by the middle of October, at least 100 stations will be regularly broadcasting the department's radio programs. MAN LEAPS FROM BRIDGE, KILLED BY TUBE TRAIN MAN LEAPS FROM BRIDGE, KILLED BY TUBE TRAIN (Preston News Service) JERSEY CITY, N. J.-Oct. 20- Thomas E. Wheeler, real estate operator, President of the trustees of Monumental Baptist Church, was killed Wednesday night when he divided fifty feet from the Journal Square bridge over the Hudson Manhattan tracks in front of a train. Pedestrians on the bridge saw him climb to the parapet and jump. The train was brought to a stop before the wheels passed over "Wheeler's body, but he was dragged some distance. Members of the family said the man suffered a nervous breakdown two years ago and that he had had recurring attacks recently. He is survived by his wife, two sons and a daughter. SUCCUMBS AFTER SHORT ILLNESS WAS BRILLIANT MEDICAL STUDENT AND PRESIDENT OF ALPHA CHAPTER PHI BETA SIGMA FRATERNITY. Mr. Hillyard S. Moore, 23, a senior in the Howard University Medical School, died Saturday morning, Oct. 16, at 12:50 a. m., after a brief illness. Death was caused by bronchial pneumonia and an overworked condition. Mr. Moore, son of Mr. and Mrs. S. Moore of Vallejo, California, was born in Washington, D.C. He completed his primary and secondary school training in the public schools of Vallejo. Mr. Moore was always active in extra curricula activities, taking part in orchestral work as well as athletics. He was also a devout church worker and during his years at Howard was connected with church work at Campbell A. M. E. Church in Anacostia, D.C. During the six years of his college life, Mr. Moore was connected with Alpha Chapter Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity. Mr. Moore was an active and willing worker in all uplifting activities; being not only a brilliant student but an idealist as well. In his senior year in the Medical School he was honorably elected President of Alpha Chapter Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity. Funeral services were held at Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel on Tuesday October 18, at 1 o'clock. Dr. Charles Welely, head of the Department of History at Howard University and Pastor of the church of which Mr. Moore was a member, officiated.

P. Davis, Dr. Brown, Dr. Alaine Leroy Locks, Professor Charles Williams, Mr. Emory B. Smith, Professor Tulane, Professor Cooper, Professor Lewis and numerous other members of the faculty. LAWRENCE EDW. JAMES, Cor. & Rec. Sec. Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Alpha Ch. RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION Improved Uniform International Sunday School Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D.D., Dean Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) (© 1837, by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for October 30 AMOS DENOUNCES SIN (World's Temperance Sunday.) LESSON TEXT—Amos 2.4-13. GOLDEN TEXT—Seek good and not evil, that ye may live, and so the Lord the God of hosts shall be with you, as ye have spoken. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Punishment of Zin JUNIOR TOPIC—What God Thinks of Big INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-Why the Drink Trafe Is Prohibited YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Intemperance and Associated Evils. Amos, a shepherd and tradesman (Amos 7:14, 15) was called to prophesy for God. He was neither in the prophetic line, nor trained in the prophetic schools. 1. The Sina of Judah (2:4, 5). In the first part of the book Amos sets forth judgments upon the surrounding nations. The aim, doubtless, was to show that there is no escape from God's judgment. The nation or individual that sins shall surely be judged (Num. 32:23). 1. They despised the law of the Lord. To despise means to spurn, so disregard. To despise God's law is a sin directly against God. There is no escape from judgment for such as do this. (Heb. 10:28, 29). 2. Failed to keep the Lord's commandments (v. 4). Disobedience logically follows the despairing of God's law. It not only robs of blessings in this life, but results in eternal destruction (II Thess 1:7-10). 3. Lies caused them to err (v. 4). Because they despised God's law they fell into lying errors. Doctrine and conduct are inseparable. Thinking wrong precedes doing wrong. 4. Judgment upon Egypt (v. 5). This was literally fulfilled a century and a half later in the capture of Jerusalem by the Chaldeans. II. The Sins of Israel (2:0-3.) The message of the prophet now comes directly to the northern kingdom. 1. "Sold the righteous for silver" (v. 6). The judge, for a bribe of silver, declared the innocent to be guilty. 2. "Sold the poor for a pair of shoes" (v. 0). Likely this refers to the practice of selling into slavery the debtor who could not pay for a pair of shoes which had been sold to him on time. 3. "Pants" after the dust of the earth on heads of the poor (v. 30). The word "pont" means to eagerly desire. So avaricious had these men become that they even grasped after the earth which the down trodden poor cast upon their heads in mourning because of their misery. 4. Turned aside the way of the meek (v. 7). These grasping rich men turned aside the meek; that is, those who would not stand up for their rights. 5. Licentiousness (v. 7). So notorious were the immoralities practiced that they were even guilty of incestuous prostitution. This was not merely the case of falling into sensuous sin, but was indulged in with the definite purpose of insulting God provoking His holy name. They not only frequented the place of idolatrous worship, but lay down on the clothes taken from the poor, and drank wine bought with money extorted from the poor in unjust fines. III. God's Goodness to Israel (vv B-12). God's manifold blessings and His goodness are now presented in contrast with the base practices of the nation, in order to heighten the picture of their ingratitude. 1. Destroyed their enemies (v. 0). The Ammorite stands for all powerful peoples whom God removed from Palestine to make room for Israel. 2. Delivered from cruel bondage (v. 10). God set them free from the cruel slavery of the Egyptians. Every redeemed one has been set free from a more cruel bondage than that of the Israelites at the hands of the Egyptians (John 8:34-36). 3. Led them for forty years in the wilderness (v. 10). The wilderness wandering is a most wonderful story, showing the tender and faithful leading of God. 4. Raised up the prophets (v. 11). God not only bestowed great honor upon them in this, but favored them in raising up prophets from among their own offspring. The awful sin and guilt are here shown in that they not only turned the prophets from their lives of separation but gave them wine to drink. Faith Faith never refers to self, but always to the Word of God. There are many who want to feel that they are believers before they have believed the truth, and to feel that they are safe, before they trust in Jesus. Our Faith When the devil tries our faith it is that he may crush it or diminish it; but when God tries our faith it is to establish and increase it.-Marcus Rainford. B. Y. P U. LESSON HOW CHURCHES WORK TOGETHER. L. Cor. 16:1-13. Churches have a common head. "Christ" Churches have one program; "The World For Christ." Churches have one mind; "The Mind of Christ." We speak here of the New Testament Church. (a) Periodic Giving. (a) Mutual Companionship. (b) A Visit to Edify. (c) Abiding Together In Christian civilship. Verse 9, Door of Opportunity Opened and Difficulties to Encounter. III. Three Missionaries; Paul, Timotheus, Appolos. Verses 10, 11. IV. Christian hospitality. Verse III. V. Three Admonitions. How can churches co-operate without friction? Is co-operation possible with different Denominations? How do you account for church Associations? How do you account for Church, Association and Convention Splits! How may they be avoided! FAIR EXHIBITS (Commission on Interracial Co-op) ATLANTA, GA., Oct. 10-At the Southeastern Fair, held here last week, the Negro exhibit was a striking evidence of progress on the part of the Negro farms, homes and of schools of the State. Occupying the whole floor of the agricultural building, it packed a space of 20,00 square feet with a remarkable display of farm, home and school products—the work of Georgia's best rural Negro citizensnip. Nineteen county exhibits were in evidence, many of them elaborate and inclusive; a large number of schools contributed the best work of their pupils; and in addition there were individual exhibits running into the thousands, there were chiefly beautiful specimens of hand craft and needle work. On every hand were encouraging evidences of diversified farming, soil improvement, seed selection, better marketing, meat production, and other characteristics of progressive agriculture. That the farm women are keeping pace was indicated by endless array of canned fruits, vegetables, artistic needle work, and handmade articles of taste for the name. The counties represented, for the most part, were those in which Negro farm and home demonstration agents are employed, of whom there are in the state twelve men and fifteen women. The exhibits grew largely out of their efforts to improve rural conditions and methods, and to raise the level of Negro life in general. The results constituted a remarkable testimonial to the value of their work in promoting higher standards of efficiency, greater production and better citizenship. Most hopeful of all, perhaps, were the school displays, which were vast and varied. These consisted not only of the usual school work—maps, posters, essays, historical sketches, drawings and the like—but also of an unbelievable variety of domestic science and manual training products, indicating that the training of mind and hand is going along side by side. One of the schools displayed a poster boasting the fact that of its 255 graduates not one had ever been convicted or accused of crime. The exhibit was viewed by thousands of visitors and received the highest commendation on all hands. Topeka Happenings REV. A. L. BRANCH, PASTOR. There was a good attendance at the services, Sunday throughout the day. S. S., was highly enjoyed with a full staff of officers and the presence of 86 pupils. At 11 o'clock, a large audience greeted Pastor Branch and enjoyed a most excellent sermon. Afternoon service at 3 o'clock, Rev. Williams, a pastor of our own city, preached, delivering a wonderful sermon. B. Y. P. U., at 6:30 with the presence of a very interested group of young people. Willing and Ready Section rendered an excellent program. At 8 o'clock Pastor Branch delivered another strong message for the Lord. The Holy Spirit seemed to have dwelt happily in all services. This week was one of great inspiration and information with all of the attendants at our church. We rendered a weeks' porgram known as the Sunflower Convention Program, each evening followed with a sermon by pastors from different churches in the city; each church supposed to represent with such finance as they carried to give. The program was suggested by Mrs. A. J. May, one of our faithful church workers and the church had much success as well as inspiration, information and pleasure. The Ministerial Alliance, headed by Pastor A. L. Branch, m o t at the Calvary Baptist Church, on Monday noon, with six of the pastors, present. A few current events were discussed. The President presented Dean Scruggs of the Baptist Theological Seminary, who addressed the pastors on the subject of "Atonement." Dean Scruggs is known to be in a class to himself. The pastors of Topeka, feel themselves highly congratulated to have a man of ability in their association. The Negro Star-For the good of the People WICHITA'S BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL INDEX DR.

We also thank the secret societies, the State Baptist Convention, the state executive board, the Kaw Valley District Association, Southeastern and other religious organizations for their tender expressions of sympathy and floral contributions that did so much to dispel our grief and sorrow. Last but not least, we thank Mr. Russell Hamlin and the Skinner's funeral firm for the very liberal care and kindness shown in the manner of caring for the body and laying it away in its final resting place. And we are greatly indebted, indeed, to our friends who, almost without solicitation, surrendered their automobiles for our service without cost, and to Mr. Hill, who offered to donate one of his cabs free of charge. This card voices the sentiment of the entire family—P. D. Skinner. Calvary Baptist News. On Sunday, throughout the day, services were interesting and inspiring.

Stokes is a busy man in the kingdom work at this time of the month. He has full co-operation of all ministers of his Dist.; they either go to another church or they put forth special efforts for missionary funds on the 5th Sunday. The strong pastors are asked to go to smaller churches and give them real gospel sermons, while their large congregations are asked to do more than ever to hold up the home bases. It is the wishes of the Missionary that no church will think of itself to the extent that it will not do its whole duty for the spread of the kingdom and reaching the unreached. Every minister and church in the district can make them a new name and record for him or itself by doing their whole duties. Let the Lord count on you for the fifth Sunday or next Sunday you will bring forth blessings that you will not be able to understand. Topeka News Notes ANTIOCH BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. A. L.

L. GREER, Prop. port on the present state of health and expectation of life among colored people, which shows that the race as a whole, is progressing in health matters about as fast as the white population. To those who think of the Negro as shiftless and unprogressive and who see in his presence only a problem, this report from the pen of Dr. Dublin may be commended for careful study. His conclusion and prophecy is that the achievements of the Negro in America "will be recognized not only as the greatest experiment in racial adjustment ever undertaken by man, but as the most encouraging and gratifying episode in our national life." The Congregational fellowship has had a hand in the education of at least a million Negroes and may perhaps feel some just gratification at the results known.

Men With Strength of Charter Demanded "Men must have the stuff to stand upon their feet," says Robert E. Lewis, General Secretary. Cleveland Young Men's Christian Association. He goes on to ask: "Are they always to lean for support and salvation upon stronger women? Are they to go wrong if women will let them? Have we little morality excepting such as the finer sex forces upon us because of their standards and in spite of ours? We rejoice in the new freedom of young women; we are not staggered by their mistakes, they must learn in a free world of equals. When men become half Christ-like, no freedom loving, evil-unsuspecting, highminded girl will be in danger of men; or if so imperiled, men will suffer as the outcasts of society, whose best interests they outrage, because, themselves the pusillanimous sinners. What we want this Association to stand for is a clean race of men, fair, and as spiritual as forceful, not because women compel them to be straight, but because to be otherwise is to them contemptible. And that is what women expect of us; all but the worthless." -THE NEW SIGN Negro Shown Advancing by Life Insurance Statistics One life insurance company in New York has on its books as holders of policies a fifth of the total Negro population of the United States, and its statistical expert, Dr. Louis I.
