The one that cap- tivated me was the topic, “Lack of Education.“ Without Civilization, what would the world be today? Without edu- cation what will become of the Ne- gro of tomorrow? Aa time goes on, inventors and inventions are rapidly increasing. These inventors are in- venting labor-saving devices and ma- chines, These new machines require some sort of an education to be able to operate them. As it has been sald, It takes and education to run a fur- nace. After an education is acquired, it is yours to keep. It isn’t lke your hat or your coat; it can’t be stolen. The world is demanding educated people more and more, Your color doesn't matter, if you can produce the work, the Job is yours.. Some people seem to think that they get too old to learn, but it has been proven that # man 44 yeara of age can learn as much as a 14 year old boy. So you see it is proper and fitting that every cne should have an education, if he wishes auccess. Calvary Baptist Church, Feb. 14, 15, was the place of a very success- ful'Board Meeting.

GOLDEN TEXT—But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ PRIMARY TOPIC—Growing Like Jesus JUNIOR TOPIC--Growing Like laws. JESUS INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—Growing Up—To What? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—Conditions of Christian Growth I. Following Jesus (John 1:40). As a result of the testimony of John the Baptist, that Jesus was the Lamp of God (v. 30), Andrew followed Jesus. The proof that he really believed is that he followed Christ. This is the first essential in the Christian life. II. Leading Others to Christ (v. 41) As soon as Andrew had found and become acquainted with Christ, he brought Lls brother Peter to Christian growth can only be truly realized in the gifting of oneself to the winning of souls. The one who has received the gospel, the good news cannot help but preach it. III. Confessing Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of God (Matt. 10:15-18) The disciples had been with the Lord for several years. They had heard His wonderful words and seen His mighty works. Various opinions were extinct about Him. It was now necessary for them to have a definite conception of Him. Examination came after the period of school life. As the Master Teacher, Jesus knew what it meant to the disciples to have a right conception of Himself. He knew the trying ordeal through which they would be called upon to pass as the Time of his crucifixion drew near. Only as they perceived His delity would they be strong in the hour of trial. In answer to Jesus' pointed personal question, Peter confessed to the absolute delity and Messiahship of Jesus. This conception of Christ is essential to salvation (John 20:31). No one lacking it will ever be interested in the winning of souls. Heides, the denial of His delity is the supreme lie (I John 2:22). I. What Peter confessed (v. 16). "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." It therefore involved Ilias Messiahship and delity. This is the burning question of today. Those who have the right conception of Christ's person and mission have no trouble in the renim of science, philosophy or ethics. 2. Christ's commendation (v. 17). He pronounced him blessed. The evidence that Peter was blessed was that he was in spiritual touch with the heavenly Father. His conception of Christ was not revealed by death and blood. 3. Peter's blessing (v. 13). Christ declared that he should be come a foundation stone in this church. Christ Himself is the chief cornerstone on which the church is built. Christ's person and Messiahship were confessed by Peter, and on this rock is laid the foundation of apostles and prophets (Eph 2:20). All believers are living stones of this House (I Peter 2:5). IV. Peter's Restoration (John 21:15 10). Peter grievously sinned in denying the Lord, but he made confession, shedding bitter tears over his sin and fully. The Lord tenderly dealt with his erring disciple and restored him in his restoration, Jesus brought to Peter's mind the essential qualification for his ministry. Love is the preeminent gift for Christian service. To impress upon his mind this fact he three times asked the question, "Loveest thou me?" He not only asked the question three times to show the supreme qualification for service to Him but to show that there are three classes of persons demanding his service, and that these classes need special care as well as food adapted to their state. 1. Those beginning the Christian life, babies in Christ, "Feed my hands" The word "feed" means more than in stratification. It applies to the surround- ings, influences and examples. 2. The mature ones, "Feed my sleep." This seems to mean "shepherd my sleep" The mature class of believers not only need food, but discipline 21st need correction and guidance. 4. The aged Christians, "Feed My Sheep." The word "feed" here is much the same as in the first case. This is a service greatly needed today. In many places the old people are greatly not loved. All provision is made for the young people. Love is the supreme need in service to the old folks. The Humble Person When men are cast down, then those shall say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person he shall deliver the island of the innocent; and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands—Job 22:29, 30. Living and Giving Abundant life always means overflow. The Christian life that is not overflowing is spiritually sick. It is dwarfed instead of being full grown. It is corral, not spiritual. LESSON, SUNDAY, FEB. 24, 1929 SUBJECT: Why is Christianity the only adequate religion? TEXT: John 4: 8-10 TEXT: John 4:8-12. Christianity is the only adequate religion because its author is Divine; Its message is inspired; Its law is love; and its spirit is dynamic. The deepest cravings of the human soul are found only in the Christian religion. Whenever the religion of Christ is actually tested, its force in human life is evident. Other religions may be built around great personalities, but the Christian religion is the only religion that is built around Christ. If the thing be of man it will come to naught but if it be of Christ you cannot o'erthrow it. Christianity's standard of ethics, is perfect and unchangeable, its ideal is Christ. The interview of Christ with the women was not chance, but Providence, Christ finds the point of contact. He overcomes her prejudices. He appeals to her curiosity. He appeals to conscious needs. He gives her a new vision. Such are the characteristics of the Christian religion. It has never failed to work when truly tried. When a religion fails, that is sufficient evidence that it is not Christian. Abillete Interests Tolo The II. C. Club met at the home of Mrs. Barbara Hart, Tuesday evening.

Rev. Favors, who has been confined to bed with influenza is able to be out again. B. Y. P. U., at 6:30, Group IV had The basket Ball Game, Friday eve- ing, when the Bethany Brotherhoo- team played the Topeka H. S., team, resulted in a score of 22 to 16 in favor of Ottawa. At the conclusion of the game a debate was held in the auditorium of the church. Subject: "Resolve that the Negro man has done more for the Uplift of the race than the Negro Woman." The de- bates on the affirmative were Rev. Smith, pastor A. M. E. Church, and Rev. Chas. Favors. Negative, Rev. Stovall and Bro. Crith. The Botherhood team went to St. Joseph, Mo., Saturday, where they were scheduled to meet the Francis Street Baptist Basket Ball Team Saturday evening. They won from the St. Joseph Team 23 to 14. Before going to St. Joseph, Rev. Favors told the boys he expected them to "bing back the bacon." Sunday evening, the president of the Brothhood, arose in the back of the church and said he had an announcement to make. He proceeded to front with a rather large package in his hand. Curiosity was aroused. He said; they told the pastor and team of the Francis Street Church, they were there to "take the bacon back to Ottawa." The other team took the challenge literally. The above mentioned score and a large lab of breakfast bacon, which was presented to the pastor, by the Brothhood, was the result. The Semper Fidelis Club gave a banquet at the 2nd Street Hall, Monday night. The hall was beautifully decorated for the occasion and the meal was served on small tables. A large number of people were present. The Senior Mission Circle will be entertained by Mrs. T. L. Barlow, Thursday afternoon.

AND SOUL SAV ING EFFORT. AND SOUL SAV ING EFFORT. ZION BAPTIST CHIURCH REV. M. FRAZER. PASTOR ATCHISON, KANSAS—We have just closed a revival which was conducted by Rev. Marion Jackson of Oklahoma City. Rev. Jackson is an excellent preacher and spared no pain in delivering his messages. Each evening, Rev. Jackson closed the services; soaked with perspiration. Zion Baptist Church is not slow in its praise of these 16 days' service, but most highly elated. Good and wholesome seed have been sown, and we are just waiting for the harvest. It take some seed longer to terminate than others, and here in Atchison, where the righteous rays shine weak, and the wind of society flows cold, it seems to take longer for the Gospel seed to take root. But that clean, clear, naked truth, thundering from Rev. Jackson as a powerful ball from a mighty cannon, served as a Gospel plow, plowing up the folly-ground and clearing up many a heart, getting them in attitude, and-making them ready to do service for the Lord. We cannot value, and neither can we express the good accomplished by this meeting. Although Rev. Jackson is in Oklahoma, he shall live long in Atchison, in the hearts and minds of our people. We regretted so very much, that because of the severe weather, we were not able to recompense Rev. Jackson as we desired. We also appreciate Rev. Frazier, because it was through his association with such men as Rev. Jackson, that we have opportunity to hear some of the best ministers the Raceords. Independence Notes MAPLE STREET BAPT.
