THE PASSING OF MEN AND TIME
"THE POINT OF VIEW"
'By Robert E. Lewis
There seems to be a mysterious poison or inoculation from failure.
A worker is struggling to get back his health after father, mother, fortune had quickly followed one another into the beyond. It took the greatest of medical skill to revive him. He is not yet entirely himself.
It is a common experience in business that failure brings physical collapse to the man or men chiefly involved.
It is so with great projects. Lewis A. Crossett has gone. The kindly, irenic William Sloane is no longer with us. Mr. Mott, after the war, went to the sunny uplands to recuperate his towering structure. Mr. Carter passed quietly into a less strenuous sphere. They had dared the impossible. The war work organization had been compromised abroad in certain commands. The administration had dealt frankly with the public even if it knew of the tendering a universal service overseas to millions of men under arms, because it must give precedence to the men and munitions of the army.
They did not dream that an unscrupulous advantage would be taken, insidious and damnable, to discredit and if possible to wreck their efforts and their organization and exploit its obvious weaknesses. This conspiracy of defamation was dissipated by its own feverish excesses, for the simple reason that the Association rendered at home and abroad in the war an unparalelled service, greater by far than the army command or the allies had expected; tho' less by far in many places than the men wanted, and less than the home constituency looked for.
And the tragedy of the whole matter, is summed up in Lloane, and in Crossett. The whole home constituency was put upon the defensive. The detractors rejoiced and were tickled over their predicament. Even though the Association's forces had been responsible to a very large degree in raising not only funds which the Association used but also the funds used by other organizations, the latter did nothing adequate to disabuse the public mind of the cannula, some of them actually gloated over it.
But Mr. Crossett lived to see, as have many others, a unique situation, as we wish Mr. Slaone had been able to do. The answer of the young institution has been this; it demands of the Association an expansion and extension of service without parallel. This has not been brought about by advertising. In fact the publicity was largely negative, but it has come about by the ceaseless pressure of the youth of the cities upon the Association for its services. Prevention is the great social remedy, rather than amputation—character-making rather than the electric chair or the reformatory. Some day communities will spend upon their character-making social institutions ten times the money they are now spending and will then need to spend less upon crime-suppression, which is now our most expensive public service, with the exception of war-making and war-repenting.
With the new demands for the work of the Association has also come the liberalizing of its membership privileges, a plan to decentralize its nation management and the vast demand in thirty-two different nations for the extension abroad of the American type of Y. We do not need to inquire what has become, as servants of the public, in the war days against the Association. Some of them faded out of the limelight, lost interest in fact in the public, and disappeared from the stage as vital ministers to the social weal. But the growth of the Association movement since the war has been beyond all expectation.

THE AMERICAN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY is operating under full away. Recently the BOARD OF DIRECTORS elected Dr. W. T. Amiger as President, with the soliciting students, raising money for understanding that the greater portion of his time be spent on the field AID FUNDS." Dr. J. H. Garnett was designated as Dean of the Seminary, and required to perform all the duties common to that office. This puts him in closer touch with the Seminary, and enables him to assist more largely in the managerial portion of the work.
Dr. L. R. W. Johnson, who has been giving one-half time as teacher, has been required to serve during the full teaching period. All teachers except one are in the building, and in close touch with the students, which enables them to exert a greater influence over the student body, and to administer discipline in a wiser and more effective manner.
Dr. O. L. Hailey has been elected as Treasurer of the "STUDENTS ID FUND," and is expected to devote his time to the raising of money for the "FUND." This money will be used for the purpose of aiding needy students, who cannot make it through the Seminary without assistance from other sources. Pastors and religious leaders throughout the country are requested to give all the representatives of the Seminary a hearing and to co-operate with them to the fullest extent in their efforts to make friends and raise money for the Seminary.
Nearly all of the old students have returned, and there are ten new students enrolled since the opening of the present session. Increased contributions from the churches and religious organizations are necessary, if the Board of Directors would meet the operating expenses promptly. E. W. D. ISAAC, Chairman, Business Committee.z

THE NEGRO SPIRITUALS
By Cleveland G. Allen
From time to time I have protested against the Negro spirituals being sung in theatres, because the theatre does not provide the proper setting for these songs, and because it tends towards commercializing them, and thus destroying their sacred intent. I have noticed that this practice has started again, and I want to call attention to the danger of this evil. As I have said before the Negro spirituals are the most sacred form of music, and represent the religious expression of the Negro.
These spirituals were the weapons used by the Negroes during his period of slavery, in which he expressed its faith, hope sorrow, and joy, and were b in under an envirment that was sacred. They were not meant for more entertainment, such as bei g given on the vaudeville stage and in other forms that take their altogether out of their setting. I contend that the singing of the spirituals should be restricted to schools, colleges, churches and concert halls, and that they should not be exploited as they are being done in the theatre.
I think University which has been the pioneer in the preservation of this music, regards the Negro spirituals as sacred and to be revered. The students of Fisk are taught the beauty and value of these songs, what they mean to the cultural background of the Negro.
The practice of presenting the spirituals in a manner not in keeping with their sacred intent should be discouraged.
—Clipping.
NOEL-A group of local young men, for three years, have been poing it local theatre, singing these songs; while these young men have excellent voices, they only sing for a mess of pittage. Only one of them give any time to Christian service.

Emporia Hearings
Nov. 7, 1927—We the pastor and members of St. James Baptist Ch. wish to extend to Rev. A. W. Ross and relatives, our earnest heartfelt sympathy in this sad hour in the death of their brother and son. We bow in humble submission and becoming reverence to Him who doeth all thing for the best; altho' sometimes we cannot understand and it seems hard to bear.
Don't weep as one who has no hope, but look up unto Him who is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Cast all of your cares on Him who said, He was a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief and don't forget to pray.
If you be faithful and true you can see your brother again, he is just waiting for you on the other side, where he is called from labor to reward. We hope these words may be some consolation to you and help you to prove strong and faithful until we reach the mark of the high calling which is in Christ Jesus. Let me conclude in the words of the poet:
"Why should we mourn departed friend,
Or shake at death's alarm,
'Tis but the voice that Jesus sends,
To call us to His arms."
Your friend and Co-workers,
Rev. V. L. Danzy, Pastor & Deacons.

Lesson for November 13
HOSEA PREACHES GOD'S LOVE
LESSEN TEXT—Hosea 11.1-4 8, 91
14.46
GOLDEN TEXT—I desire mercy and not sacrifice and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
PRIMARY TOPIC—God's Wonderful Love
JUNIOR TOPIC—God's Wonderful Love
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Unchanging Love of God
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Loving-Kindness of God
Hogson's message was principally to Israel. The nation was outwardly prosperous, for its height of temporal glory was reached in the time of Jeroboam II. (See II Kings 14:20). With this prosperity came luxury, immortality and apostasy. Calf worship and Baih worship were substituted for the worship of God.
1. The Apostasy of Israel (chs. 1-5)
Israel's covenant relationship with
Jehovah is presented under the figure
of a marriage. Their spiritual whore-
dion is symbolized by the example of
an unfaithful wife.
Hosen was commanded by God to take an unchaste woman to be his wife. While this was a strange act, yet it was right, for it was commanded by God, and its motive was the elevation of the woman to the prophet's moral plane. It was designed to show God's wonderful condescension and love in entering into covenant relationship with a nation of such immorality. The nation had no more to commend it when God chose it than this unchaste woman when Hosen contracted marriage with her.
2. The unfaithful wife (ch. 2).
Notwithstanding the wonderful con-
descension on the part of the prophet
in contracting mortalage with this
woman, Gomer, the unfaithful wife,
departs from him to consort with her
former base lovers. This shows Israel's
base ingrudience in their departure
from God to go after idols. Some dis-
splacement fell upon her for her unfaith-
fulness.
3. Illustration of Gomer, the unfaith
ful wife (ch. 3).
This illustrates God's undying love
for Israel. The motive governing the
prophet's net was love. God's love for
Israel is just as real. His grace will
get more Him to take back that nation
to Himself.
II. God's Love for Israel (Hoses
11:1-4, 8, 9).
1. Its beginning (v. 1).
It begin when Israel as a nation was in its childhood. God loved the nation even while in Egypt.
2. "Called my son out of Egypt" (v. 1).
God called Israel out of the bondage of Egypt and brought them into Canaan, the land of freedom—flowing with milk and honey. Such love and favor placed Israel under peculiar obligation to God.
3. "Taught Ephraim to go" (v. 3).
In spite of Israel's backsliding (v. 2), God is represented as teaching Israel how to walk, even as a father taking up his child in his arms. God watched over them as parents watch over their children by night.
4. "I drew with cords of a man" (v. 4).
Observe that His drawing was not with a stout rope as used with an unruly helper (ch, 10:11), but a cord such as a man could hear. God's wonderful love in Christ should constrain us to obey and serve Him.
5. Took off the yoke from the jaws and placed food before them (v. 4).
The figure is of a husbandman lifting the yoke from the oxen so that they could eat.
6. Unwillingness to give them up (v. 8, 9).
In spite of all Israel's sin, God was unwilling to destroy them.
III. God Pleads for Repentance (11:18).
Notwithstanding their awful sins God urged Israel to turn unto Him He is doing the same to backsliders today. He made promise unto them.
1. "I will heal their backsliding" (v 4).
This on the condition of frank and full confession.
2. "I will love them freely" (v. 4).
This is characteristic of God. Only God can express unmerited love.
3. "I will be as the dew to Israel" (v. 5).
God will refresh the nation as dew does the parched grass.
G. Flensant fragrance (v. 7).
While this is a picture of the re restored nation, something similar may be seen in the fragrant, fruitful lives of men and women who have sinned and come back to God.
He who is faithful over a few things is lord of cities. It does not matter whether you preach in Westminster Abbey, or teach a ragged class, so you be faithful. The faithfulness is all—George Macdonald.
A safe auto driver keeps his hand on the wheel and his eye on the road. A sane Christian keeps his hand on the Bible and his eye on God.—T. C. Horton.
Faithfulness Is All
The Sane Christian
B. V. P U. LESSON
We are a part of the group in which we live and move, whether we be active or passive.
Each Christian desires to contribute to the group life. He should, therefore, take an active part in the meetings for the good of the group, blessing him self by his activity and the group by his contribution.
In order to take a helpful part in the meeting, ore's relationship with God must be vital.
According to our text we have access to God through the atonement of His Son.
"A new and better way through the service of Christ."
We are admonished to draw near to God with a true heart, clean body, and clear conscience, being steadfast in Christ and God's promises.
We are to be considerate of each other, cultivating love and inspiring good works.
Our assembling together is God's way for our spiritual development; in such a way as will make co-operation possible.
By the assembling, we know each other better. We inspire each other, we grow to love each other more and learn how to work together with God for the establishment of His Kingdom on earth.
Parts to be taken are many. All may have a share, God does not call to service will cut having a definite place in which one can serve.
There are strangers to be welcomed. There are officials to be encouraged. There are persons to be invited. There are those to be interested in other auxiliaries of the Church. There are books and Bibles to be gathered and distributed. There are programs to be rendered, order to be kept, people to be encouraged to be encouraged to remain for be led, lessons to be prepared, that preaching services. Discussions to we may drop noble thoughts in class discussion. Prayers to be offered for the officials and Union. And, the life of Christ is to be exemplified in our lives.
Calvary Baptist Church
Matthew 26.23 was the source of the message Sunday morning, delivered by Pastor, Rev. J. W. Hayes. Many good thoughts were left. It seemed good to have the pastor back in the pulpit, since he was absent all day on last Sunday.
On Sunday evening the pastor preached a practical sermon, "The Church In Business." The Pastor is preaching a series of these practical sermons each Sunday evening during the month of November.
The sermon for the following Sunday evering services are.—The Church In Politics." Nov. 20; "The Church In Society." Nov. 13; "The Church In The Family." Nov. 27.
On Sunday evening, an enjoyable song service was had preceding the the church services, proper. Each Sunday evening such services will be held.

Sunday was a high day, beginning with S. S. at its regular hour 9:30, with Supt., and staff of officers at their posts of duty. Teachers spared no pains in making the lesson plain to the pupils. Lesson was wonderfully reviewed by Sister Bothis. Evangelism period was conducted by the Pastor.
At the 11 o'clock services, after a short devotion, the Pastor read for Scripture, 1 John 2:1-8. Afterwhich we entered into a wonderful covenant meeting. Every one seemed to be filled with the Holy Spirit. We also administered the Lord's Supper. Invitation was extended; one came forward.
At 3 o'clock we all hastened to a very splendid talk given by Mrs. Bothie at New Hope Baptist Church. She talked on the subject: "Women." At 5:30 C. C. C., was opened by conductor, Bro. J. H. Baker. Attendance was wonderful. We were glad to have Mrs. Bothie worship with us during the B. Y. P. U., period. True and Tried had charge of program. They also won the banner for finance.
At 8 o'clock services, devotion was led by the deacons. Afterwhich, the Pastor delivered the message from 1 Cor. 3rd chapter; words of text, "There is no other foundation that can be laid, except that of Jesus Christ." The Pastor preached a powerful sermon to a well filled house.

KANSAS CITY NEWS
METROPOLITAN BAPT. TEMPLE
By reason of physical inability, Rev. Thomas L. Dallou, Marshall, Texas, could not come to us to conduct our soul-saving campaign. Pastor Bronson opened the service Sunday with an interesting message. One candidate for baptism and two additions by Christian experience. Rev. R. H. Dixon, evangelist singer, will assist in the meeting with the assistance of local ministers. Evening services were interesting, baptizing and the "Lord's Supper."
Mt. Olive Church has spent a week celebrating the 6th Anniversary of its pastor, Rev. E. M. Mosley, D. D. A great time in Zion. Dr. H. B. Bronson delivered the special Anniversary Sermon, Sunday at 3 o'clock, accompanied by his choir, deacons, and many members, they served a great purpose.
Indiana Avenue Church
Preaching services were held at the Indiana Avenue Church of Christ from Monday night to Friday night. Lev, R. L. Love, Field Evangelist of Topeka, Kansas, and Elder Cashus, of Denver, Colorado, were here. Rev. Love preached on Monday evening. Tuesday evening his subject was, "Can a Child of God, Fall from Grace " This was a very good message indeed. Rev. Love is a very able preacher. His subject was followed all the way through his discourse. Every one who heard him enjoyed his messages. Subject for Friday night, "Why Can't All Men See Alike?" For Thursday night, "Christian Living;" Each of the messages were well outlined and explained, thoroughly.
God was evidently with these men for without God they could not have accomplished very much.
Two confessions were made during the four days Rev. Love was here. We are always glad to have these God sent men with us; as they through God's blessed word, will cause men to begin to think and see as they have never seen before.
May God bless these men and help them to carry His message to all men.—C. F. Neal, Reporter.
