THE NEGRO STAR. FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol. 22, No. 3, OF WATER STREET BRANCH, WICHITA YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION "The 20th Anniversary of Water Street Branch young Men's Christian Association was brought to a close, Sunday, April 2, in a monster Mass meeting at Calvary Church. Over 200 chants graved the threatening weather, to near their friend and benefactor, Mr. A, A. Ayde. He spoke from the general theme, "The A, A. C., and the Church." He admnished his hawkers to take the teachings of Jesus laterally. He pleased to stewardship of life as well as of money. A brief historical sketch of the work was given by the present executive. An original poem, written for the Anniversary, was read by Mr. Lucifus Cash, a student at a friend's University. Special music was furnished by a joint (union) Choir and the Quartet from the Colledge Taylor Conservatory of Music. Brief talks were made by Mr. C. Kay Tyler, Executive Secretary of the Central Bianca, who brought greetings; Mr. L. F. Weatherwax, Chairman, Committee on Colored Work, Board of Directors; he also brought greetings and pledged his personal loyalty and interest in carrying on the work. Over eight hundred persons attended the meeting during the week. Letters and wire greetings were received from several friends of the work. The Anniversarv Slogan was:— "When We Shall Come to Manhood." Y. M. C. A. NOTES On Wednesday, 21th, Sec'y Hutcherson of the e"Y" went to Sterling College to lead a conference on Christian World Education. At 9:00 he conducted a Forum with the classes in Sociology. At 10:00, he spoke to a joint meeting of the Y. M. and Y. W. At 10:30 he spoke to the Hi-Y Club; closing with a lunch meeting with the Y. M. and Y. W. Cabinets, and addressing the entire student body in Chapel at 7:30. ON THE JOB Elcmen men were lynched in 1928 only eleven. It probably is the lowest number of lynchings in any year since the Civil War, Advancement of Colored People is largely responsible. One may even hope that in another decade lynching, once condoned by large sections of the American population, will have been wiped out entirely. In 1889 the National Association recorded 175 lynchings; as late as 1926, 34; last year 11, and of those in Mississippi, four used to be the great center of lynching, and public officials not so many years ago openly apologized for the practice, but a new generation, expressing the new South, is in power. There was not a lynching in Georgia, in 1928, and it is safe to say that if there had been, the state and most of the county officials would have done their best to punish the ring-leaders of the guilty mobs. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, eternally on the job attempting to confirm the constitutional rights of colored people, has just published its Nineteenth Annual Report. If Governors in Ohio, Montana, Michigan, and California, refused extradition of colored citizens wanted in the lynching states of Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and Oklahoma, this Association, which furnished the Governors with records of lynchings in those states, was largely responsible. If colored men and women may use the public libraries of West Virginia, today, if they may bake in the sea at Asbury Park, vote in Arkansas and Oklahoma. live in comfortable residence sections, even in Northern states, the legal work of the Association again is responsible. It is an extraordinary record of achievement. Some of the colored politicians of the South, relics of carpethar days have lately lost their jobs. If the colored citizens who once looked to these doubtful leaders for jobs and sympathy look instead to the type of men and women who have accomplished so much in the Urban Iearce and in the, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the future of the dark-kninned tenth of America's population will be bright. Talbert Br., Y. W. C. A. The Committee of Management met Wednesday at 4 n. m. Reports were given by the various chairman. Mrs. G. G. B. Brown gave a report of the Business and Professional Women's Conference held in Tooneks. March 9, and Miss Vauhn gave a report of the Regional Conference held in Chicago April 10-15. The Hospitality Committee met Tuesday at 7:30 p. m. Plans for the PRIZES GIVEN FOR PAPERS ON THE TENTH MAN INTERRACIAL COMMISSION ANNOUNCES WINNERS IN NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL CONTEST. ATLANTA. GEORGIA, April 16. The Commission on Interracial Cooperation today announced the following list of prize winners in the nationwide high school competition for papers on "America's Tenth Man:" First prize, fifty dollars, to Ernestine Banks, Langston High School, Hot Springs, Arkansas; second prize, tairty dollars, to Wallace C. Wardner, Hobart Senior High School Holart, Oklahoma; third prize, twenty dollars, to Claudis H. Hils Kiksville Senior High School, Kirksville, e. Missouri. The competition brought in hundreds of papers from 150 high schools in thirty-two states of the union. Officials of the Commission express themselves as niggy pinned with the result of the project, the purpose of which was to interest high school students in the study of the Negro's part in American history. The plan met with hearty approval and cooperation on the part of a great many principals and teachers of both white and colored schools, and thousands of students were enlisted in the study. Source mate il was supplied by the Commission in the form of a sixteen-page pamphlet entitled "America's Tenth Man," of which ten thousand copies were distributed. The Commission announces that a similar project will probably be conducted next year. CASH PREMIUMS FOR CAREFULNESS Divers of private passenger automobiles have been offered a real inducement for carefulness in the shape of a very substantial cash premium now allowed by the leading insurance companies, according to an announcement made by the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters. The new scheme for rewarding and encouraging carefulness is called by the insurance companies, "The New Merit Rating Plan." Under it the driver of a private passenger car will obtain a 10 per cent reduction in his insurance rates, for public liability and property damage providing he meets the following conditions: First: He has owned and operated a private passenger automobile for not less than two years prior to the effective date of the policy. Second: No private passenger automobile owned by him has been involved in an accident during the two years prior to the effective date of the policy. Third: His operating license has not been suspended or revoked. he has not been convicted of driving while intoxicated, evading responsibility after an accident, not guilty of reckless driving during the two years preceding the effective date of the policy. Fourth: He will keep the brakes and steering gear of his automobile in good working condition and will have them inspected at least semi-annually. This new rating clen and its conditions will apply to all private passenger cars including those owned and operated by physicians salesmen, solicitors, collectors, adjusters and investigators. This new idea has been under consideration for a long period by the National Bureau, of Casualty and Surety underwriters which has begun immediately to file its merit plan in all states. It will become effective in those states as quickly as the rules and regulations of the various State Departments of Insuran; will permit. Annual May Breakfast were discussed. The breakfast will be given Saturday, May 11th and a delicious menu will be served. The public is invited. Have you paid your Y. W. C. A. Membership dues for this year?

JAIL HOUSE WAS DOWN; A CRIME-FREE TOWN Mound Bayou, the Negro town in Mississippi, where no white man has ever lived, is about to tear down the city jail for the very good reason that it has been empty for two years. There has not been a murder in the town for more than four years. "We have a peace-loving and lay-abiding community," says the Negro mayor. "Our people go to church instead of to jails." Mound Bayou, which was founded nearly 50 years ago by Isaiah T. Montgomery, a Negro, has WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Apr. 26, 1929 WOMEN OF SOUTHERN STATES REPUDIATE LYNCHING MOBS NEW YORK, April 12—White women of the southern States have issued statements repudiating lynching and mobbing as a "protection" to white womanhood," and asking a single standard of morals and excerpts from these pronouncements, "published by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation in Atlanta, has been received by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The states represented in these utterances of southern white women are Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee Texas and Virginia, and there is also a statement by the Women's General Committee, of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation. A typical utterance is that of the women of Mississippi, who say in part: "As southern women we hold that no circumstance can ever justify mob action and that in no instance it is an exhibition of chivalry; consideration for the honor of womanhood." The Woman's General Committee in their resolution developed the failure of state governments to stop lynching, and pledged themselves to the task of creating a sentiment to enact sufficient laws and enforce them, to stop the evil. ST. PAUL A. M. E. CH. There was a splendid attendance at the 11 a. m services, and the spiritual message delivered by our pastor, Rev. J. H. Grant, was impressive. His subjects were. "Death-bed repentence, and the Effects of Consecration. The Bible School was opened at 9:30 a. m. by the Supt. Mr. R. V. Perkins. Russell Brown made a fine talk to the young people of the Junior Church at 10:30 a. m. The A. C. E. League met at 6:30 p. m. The ladies of the Booster Club met Wednesday evening to make Carnations to mail for Mother's Day. A meeting was held Thursday afternoon in the home of Mrs R E. Letcher by the members of the Ladies Aid Society. G. L. A. CLUB NOTES Tuesday afternoon a delightful meeting was held by the members of the G. L. A. Club with Mrs. F. O. Miller in her home and co-hostess, Mrs. T. R. Gravelly and Mrs. W. C. Crutcher. Splendid talks were made by the members pertaining to topics of general interest, also current events were given. A dull fous menu was served. Next week they will meet with Miss L. Covington in her home 501 N. Water, with Mrs. S. W. Jones, Mrs. P. B. Bates and Mrs. Lewis as co-hostesses. E. B. B. CLUB NOTES Wednesday afternoon, the E. B. B. Club held their regular weekly meeting in the home of Mrs. Essie Anderson. Devotions were led by Mrs. Turner. "Unscriptural Marriages," was the subject of lesson study. They were pleased to have enrolled as new members, Mrs. Virginia Johnson and Miss Clara Henry. They will hold their meeting next week with Mrs. Myrtle Gates, 306 West Pine St. a population of about 800. In the hotel is one room reserved for white people who happen to visit the town. One record of Mound Bayou should serve as a rebuke to those benighted souls who still persist in believing that Negroes are incapable of good citizenship. And it is refreshing to remember what is easily forgotten in these days of gang murders and violence of every sort, that there are many communitels in the United States where murders are as rare as they are in the Mississippi town.

Beginning work in the construction department in 1899, according to the sketch, Tally was later transferred to the department of exchanges, and in 1924, after twenty-five years of outside service, was given house service duty as janitor, which position he holds today. The sketch concludes:— "During his long term of service with the company he saved his money, bought and paid for a nice little home out on the edge of the city where he can keep chickens, a cow, hog and garden. He retires on a pension in 1930, and he and his wife look forward to enjoying a happy and useful old age." It has for some time been the policy of the company to give suitable recognition to colored employees who have made unusual records. Coffeyville News CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH REV. S. A.

SOME 'Y' TALK THE HOUSE BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND ITS ACCOMPLISHMENTS. BY C. A. SIMS It is said, "To get off on the right foot blazes the way for a successor future." If this be true, therefore, the things that have been accomplished by the Michigan Ave. "Y" since its doors first swung open to the public make it more difficult for false prophets to predict its downfall. Predeed it does not now take the son of a prophet to see that the Michigan Ave. Branch Y. M. C. A, has a future that will take its place by the side of other forward looking movements in this growing commercial center. We who are often found between its walls and observe the services rendered to the men and boys, regardless of race, creed or color, are made to wonder how we ever existed until now without this character-building factory. Here we find men enjoying the comforts of their own domicile. Again we find them sharing together the physical culture benefits derived from the "classes, after which under the shower and into the pool they plunge. Indeed, here is a beehive of activity where, like the bee, each one lights on the flower of his own choice. In the gymnasium we find them lined up to sports which require mental skill and accuracy, not according to race, creed or color, but rather in regard to their ability to win the game. In the reading room, lecture hall or cafeteria, a starger making his first visit might find it difficult decide just Who is Who. This is the true spirit of the "Y"—that cosmopolitan letter "Y" which represents Youth, Age, and University Travel."M"—which means the men whom God made out of one blood to dwell upon the face of the earth. "C"—which means the Christ whom He gave to redeem the men He made. "A"—which means that they might associate together in love and in peace through Christ Jesus Christ Our Lord. Here we have the spirit of the Y M. C. A. with all its proper connections which will truly hasten the day when not only men but nations will learn "war no more" for this great evil and mighty sin must first cease to exist in the hearts of men. Therefore, instead of eliminating the "C" as som heave suggested, let's grasp it with a firmer grip and lift it higher until the spirit of truth from every cornerstone cries out, "This in my Beloved Son of Whom I am well pleased. Hear Ye Him, Ye 'Ye' men that live by the side of the road." Remembering ever His Own graceful words. "If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto Me." as followers of Him; therefore, it is our job to do the lifting and not to interfere or meddle with our Father's business. "For as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness," said He, "no must the Son of Man be lifted by Ye 'Ye' men as well as all others named in that third letter of this institution. Again said He, "Let your light so shine"—this is a serious matter and is not optional with us if indeed we desire the darkness of sin and disbelief. We have long since found put that to pray Our Father Who Art in Heaven does not mean anything without love, justice, and good fellowship which makes the current through our fellowmen. This, too, is important, for is for any reason this contact is not made, then the of our service becomes as salt that light will not shine and the business of our service becomes as salt that has lost its savor and is henceforth good for nothing; but to be trodden under the feet of man. In an age like this when the light of truth is so strong and clear, why he prejudiced when our neighbor is in sneaking distance even to the uttermost parts of the earth and when we pre so much in need of each other there is no room, time, or place in this age for leaulous. There are too many unbalanced minds already here that must be healed by the spirit of truth. Talk about eliminating the "C" the Christ Spirit.—it is now the division of the church that is the curse of the age, and truth reveals the fact that without this revealed wedge of separation and deceit is withdrawn the logical conclusion to be derived as is that they love darkness rather than light. We are bold to say this in view of the fact that the church has or can have the power to solve the many problems that confront the world today. While we may never have things in common, one with the other, if the light of truth is revealed to men. Now, as my concluding thought to the "House by the Side of the Road," where the races of men go by and also to congratulate its efficient management that has made this first year work a success, and the many friends that celebrate with them their first Anniversary year, let me here inform you that the key that will let you into the deep mystery of life is the Y, M, C, A, and if these four letters that represent this institution cannot solve the problem that congrate the world today, then the battle is lost. —The Michigan Ave, "Y" Advocate _ The Negro Star—for the Good of the People ‘ .
