Favors selected for his text Ezekiel 20:20; subject: "The Christian Sabbath." During the discure, Rev. Favors said: "Many of our church members wait until Sunday morning to worship God. God will bring calamity upon church people, who deliberately turn their back upon their Christian obligations and go off after the world." One of Israel's great sins was the sin of desecration of the Sabbath Day. The people refused to hear the pleadings of the prophets. If the presacher is to instruct the people of God, he must stay among the people, be one of them. It is the ministers' duty to point out ans of the people. The encouragement that comes when most needed is the kind that will lift up the world. We let the idols of this world weigh us down and stop us from doing our Curses, had duty.

GARDNER We are laborers with God; we are God hustlers; we are God building" I Cor. 5.9. Fellow Co-Workers, Messengers of the B. Y. P. U. and South-eastern District Sunday School Convention, it has been my greatest desire and keenest anxiety, to meet you in this the forty-fourth annual session of this great convention. Wear city is entailed to this meeting because they have been naming it for several years. We have longed to make good the pledge we made to you at Sedan, Kansas, to meet you on this date. Each of you that are present today, have experienced a very peculiar year; the Kind hand of Providence has brought us through a winter of which the weather at times was intensely cold. But in the midst of the inclement weather, the true and tried workers answered the call thus Sabba h. Many of the leaders have found this to be a very difficult year in church work; in many of our churches our forces were not as close y united as they should have been, and for that, and other reasons, made it very difficult for us to put over the Lord's program. We can truthfully say as Paul, if God be for us, who can be against us? Young people, I believe the say runs for greater things than the world has ever seen more liberal things than the world has ever dreamed of. The time has come for larger Christian Education, and this ought to mean nobler action. The recent day workers are expected to do better than any who have preceded them, and we feel that we will not be disappointed. As some one has said, if you do not do better, you will do worse. In my imagination I took forward over the plain of life that lie before you. I behold long, weary, rugged road, fields of battles, scorching heat, severe storms; while drawing very heavily on my imagination, I can see days, weeks, months and years of toils, labor, sacrifice and suffering, and I say, Praise God, if they shall be counted worthy of sacrifice in this great cause of humanity, in this great work of the world's shrifting. I say this, because I can 'look beyond the dreary, dusty, storm-swept plain of life, to the first scene, without which the picture would be very incomplete. Christianity has made it possible for members of our group to enjoy all of the educational rights of any other race or denomination in the world. This great Republic of which we are a part, is graced with public schools of the finest tyme from the live board coast of Canada, to the floral gardens of florida, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. We see Junior Colleges and Universities, in nearly every State in the Union; and many of our members are coming out from these institutions of learning each year. That in itself will tell you that God is expecting the church and all of its auxiliaries to take on new life, because of the fact that a regenerated prepared membership is prearrd to put over God's program in a more efficient way than those that are less prepared. Less prepared workers need to co-operate with those that are better prepared from an intellectual view point. It takes the religion of the Lord Jesus Christ, mixed with the intellectual forces, plus the cooperation of the workers that have had long and varied experiences in the cause of the Master, to perpetuate this great case for which many have given their lives. I feel honored to be called a servant of the Most High God. There are a good many Christians who are living today, who do not want to be called a servant of Jesus Christ. If we are truly workers together with God, we are His servants. Have we done our best as leaders and workers in the Lord's vineyard this year? If not why not? Are we great assets to the cause of the Christ of God, or are we great liabilities? Have we used wisely the talent or talents, that the Lord has intrusted to our care and keeping? or have we burled them in nankin? Cur churches everywhere are calling C. A. in cooperation with the churches, will operate a one-day camp, each week. Each Saturday will be allocated to some one or more of the churches for the boys of that particular Parish—Boys from each church must arrange with their Pastor. All other boys may make arrangements at the Y. M. C. A. Boys who want to go every week, must also arrange at the Y. M. C. A. A very splendid de'legation of boys from Newton, and Wichita, are at the Wichita Boy Scout Camp, Talahl, at Cedar Vale, Kansas. William Ray of Newton, and Milton Kilpatrick of Wichita, are the Patrol Leaders, in charge of the two delegations. The Excelsior Club of Wichita, made a very substantial contribution towards assisting the local Colored Division in getting these boys to Camp. Kilpatrick is a Star Scout, and will attempt to pass his tests for EAGLE SCOUT, the highest grade in Scouting. PROGRAM OF THE TWENTY-SIXTH ANNUAL SESSION OF THE SMOKEY HILL RIVER MISSIONARY BAP- TIST DISTRICT ASSOCIATION AND ITS AUXILIARY CONVENTIONS TO CONVENE WITH THE St. John Baptist Church, Salina, Kansas, Rev. M. J. Smith, Pastor. August 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, 1929 REV. G. T. RAIMEY, MODERATOR, 920 N. Clay Street Junction City, Kansas BRO. LEWIS N. GRIMES, GENERAL SECRETARY 722 West 11th Street Junction City, Kansas OPEN LETTER DELTA INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTH BOOK 118 Doddsville, Miss., July 16, 1920 editor H. J. Sims, wichita, Kansas, Dear Friend: It would seem that the Secretary of Agriculture is not going to appoint a Negro on the Federal Farm Board, to represent 9500.0 or 14.3% of the U. S. Farming Population, who have over $500,000,000 invested. He could have appointed one, instead of the miscellaneous member from New York. the creation of a Burau; since we will not get a member on the Farm Board, will do the Race more good, than appointing a Registrar. Re order, or an assistant to somebody or minister to some country. The Negro is drafted and made go to war and fight to make the world safe for democracy—a decent place to live, a light of self-determination, and not by Proxy. Since the annulling of the 14th and 15th Amendments, the Negroes of the South are represented by proxy, much to our disadvantage and to the other man's profit. Will you ask your Representative and Senator to do all they can to get the Secretary of Agriculture to establish a burea for the Colored Farmer, so that in time we can qualify for Federal aid. It should also be remembered that when we were fired, we were given nothing and the present-day Negro Farmer, is just one generation removed from slavery. The Industrial World discriminates against the Negro; farming claims the most Negroes of any occupation, therefore a Bureau should be established for them, so that they will not be represented by Proxy. Again, no one can represent a Race, like a member of the Race, notwithstanding any statement to the contrary. If a Negro was on the Agricultural Committee, our needs would have been considered, but as it was, we were represented by Proxy, and see what a dilemma we are now in. I am a graduate of The State University of Iowa, Class of 1908; Principal of an Agirecultural School in the Yavoo Delta, which is the greatest cotton section in the world. I am a cotton, and have had 19 years' experience in dealing with and organizing colored people. Please set on this at once. We might add to this that as many of the colored people in Omaha, are from the Delta, and know Mr. Reden and his ability to really do, they would like to have him represent them. for a prepared ministry, prepared deacon board, prepared deaconess board, prepared Sunday School Superintendents, prepared Sunday School teachers. Sunday Schools in many places are suffering for the lack of teachers that have felt the cleansing power of Almighty God we are very badly in need of consecrated teachers; those who have heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Those that have volunteered to answer, saying, Here am I send me. I am sure that I am speaking the sentiment of this great Convention, when I say, "that our churches cannot put over this stupendous program, in a large way, sponsored by our Lord Jesus Christ, unless it is done by a prepared ministry and a prepared membership. The first leader whom God called, whose name is written high in the finals of history, in the person of Moses, was thoroughly prepared from every point of view for the great task of which he was called. This great leader in the person of Moses was also surrounded with competent help, such as Aaron who was a great orator, Joshua, a great warrior, and Miram, a great singer. Moses was classed as the greatest scholar of his day. Let me remind you of Paul, a scholar. This truth is witness not by the fact that he enjoyed the highest educational advantages of his day, but by evidence furnished in his wonderful speeches Five Cents Per Copy. THE D $ ^{E} $ PRIEST INCIDENT The following Article was clipped from "The Baptist Record," white Baptist paper, published at Jackson, Mississippi, July 4, 1929. Much is being said in some quarters in criticism of Mrs. Hoover for receiving the wife of De Priest, the colored congressman, at a social function at the White House. I link, if I had been acting for Mrs. Hoover, I would not have done it. It was not "good politics." But I feel sure that if Jesus Christ, the friend of humanity, had been acting for her, He would have done no less than Mrs. Hoover did, under like circumstances. There is far too much race prejudice and race hatred in the world. All of which is foreign to the spirit of Christ. But this scribe fails to see any penil to the "integrity of the white race" in the incident. The 'integrity of the white race" must be a very 'rail and spineless thing indeed, if it is imperiled by having a colored woman sit in at a semi-official perfunctory social tea. The white members of congress sit in the same room with De Priest—I have not heard of any of them resigning because he is there. I've seen white men and white women sit in automobiles with members of the colored race, I've seen white men and women we come colored people into their places of business and serve them. I really have seen colored people in the home of white people, working side by side with the whites. In all these cases there did not seem to be any fear for the "integrity of the white race." The cry against Mrs. Hoover 's just another case of "straining out a goat and swallowing a camel.' No, the peril to the white race is not in the above incidents. But there are perils to the integrity, character and perpetuity of the white race. Permit this Southerner to note here two of them. One is in that form depraved social equality between white men and Negro women producing illegitimate mulatto children. Yes, such social equality often exists where the natural fruitage in illegitimate children is prevented. The second peril is in the unjust treatment of members of the Negro race by members of the white race, which we whites as a dominant race permit. I fear that for these sins, a just God will one of these days express His displeasure in an unmistakable way. Furthermore, the president of the United States should esteem himself president of all the people, the servant of all. His wife too should share in this attitude. The humblest citizen of the nation should have access to the presence of the Chief Executive. The White House should be open to all, unless and until excluded because of enmity to the government. It is a long established custom for the wife of the president to receive in the White House at official-social functions, the wives of members of congress. If one of them happens to be a Negro, or a member of any other colored race, it would be a violation of the spirit of the constitution for her to be excluded on that account. The members of some of the Asiatic and African foreign legations at Washington are colored; yet they are received without quesat official-social functions at the Whitle House, and at the homes of others of our governmental officials. Why should we throw a fit, if one of them happens to be an American Negro? "O, consistency! consistent, thou art a feew." Yours, for fair play, —Southerner. and matchless letters, giving proof of a given way with the most difficult problems of Christianity. This is something that may not be displaced, scholarship is a great factor in the life of a race, I am sure that you will say with me that the world owes much to scholars. It is a significant fact, that the leaders in all moral and religious reforms have been men of large scholarly attainments.

To His Home? 5. To His Church? (Continued from last week) (Continued from last week) Who is my Fellowman? Is it my blood relative? Is it my next door neighbor? It may be a relative; or it may be a next door neighbor; that does not matter whether it be your own knl or your next door neighbor. A man of your nationality or group would appeal to me as that of your fellowman. But my friend, we are deeply in debt to God for the neglect of our duty toward our fellowman. In the United States of America, we have men of our group and nationality, in good circumstances, amply able to put over almost any kind of program they wish; and are walking by men who would be willing to sacrifice any amount of their time, energy and means to assist any way or movement, or take any action available to do something to bring about some satisfaction and to build up some platform and a standard by which to change conditions that are now existing in this country—that is to do something for our fellowman. We need cooperation; we need men who have backbone enough, and are broadhearted enough to stand upon their feet, stick out their chests and think in terms of more than just working for a $1.00—but of our fellowman. Our fathers suffered persecutions and shed not only briney tears but, no doubt bloody tears; and then stole away in the dark hours of mid-night, in corn fields, stole away as did Nicodemus when he went to Christ by night to find out from Him in private 'How could a man be born when he is old?' Nicodemus was not foolish 'in asking this, he was wise; for he did not understand. The world, no doubt would be better; more results obtained, or victory achieved. If when one did not understand a thing and desired to know, ask those in position to tell it to you plainly before turn ing aside, that a perfect understanding might be obtained, and the same understanding might be passed on to your fellowman. Nicodemus might have gone to Jesus in the daytime, having being a governor, but it said that there would come an argument, had someone else heard him; however the thought I am trying to bring out is that our fathers were not tating laugh for fun only, but were stealing away at night; trying to make a mark. Trying to no ship that the yoke of bondage might be lited; thinking in terms of their children and generations coming at it. t. em. Our fathers had not the chance that we have, but thought in terms of their duty to their fellow man. We do not have to steal out by night to ask Jesus a question nor do we have to hide out at night to pray; the way has been paved for us and if would do anything, it no doubt would be our duty as fellow citizens to call our fellowmen together and take up matters and give every one a chance to get his talent in a working way; to there will be no excuse on your part, man's duty to his fellow man. (To be continued) Calvary Baptist Church Sunday School at 9:00 Sut. on time. Song. Slater Gilmore presided. Devotion; silent prayer. Music. Prayer by Deacon Airk. Responsive Scripture reading 11st Praim; Secretary being absent. Miss Lorna Stevens acted instead. We are anxious to see the young people on the. Dr. W. A. Bowren of Kansas City, President of Kansas State Convention, gave a good talk in school. At morning worship, Responsive Scripture reading; deacons led devotion 15 minutes, Deacon Vaughn in charge. Luke th'chapter 1st verse was read as Scribeure kasson. Dr. Bowren preached at morning services from Luke 7:13: "When tae Lord saw her, had compassion on her." (the poor widow's only son was dead) Subject: "Some Great Power of Life." His sermon was built principally on Love; the sermon was inspirational and our hearts re'oiced. Good thoughts were brought out on Love and what it means to pray and shed tears. Dr. Bowren is an a 14 minister and his friends are glad to see him improving after a very serious illness. B. Y. P. U. at 6 o'clock was not so well attended; we are hoping the interest will be doubled leading up to the State Convention, and that next Sunday will be the record breaker for attendance. At 8 o'clock, devotion by Rev. J. F. Green. One was baptized, Scripture reading by Pastor, Acts 8:34, Phillip and the Eunuch; Text 8:36 words: "What does hinder me from being baptized?"

W. Jones of Wichita, as State Deputy Fire Marshal by Gov. Reed. He is an old citizen of Kansas and has fought hard battles in the army and politics. We are satisfied that with his knowledge of the fire department and his broad experience along so many lime, will enable him to make good. WE ARE COPYING from lt page an article from The Mississippi Baptist (white) Official Organ, in which our southern Christian friend and brother, feels like Christ would have acted as did Mrs. Hoover in accepting Mrs. De Preeat as her guest, but felt that he might not have exemplified that much of the Christ. He was brave and man enough to say: he could appreciate that kind of race equality better than that of white men unlawfully equalizing with Negro women and bringing forth mulatto children. We believe, with our good southern brother, that Christian and social equality will not effect nor lower either race, but God can take noble hearts and noble purposes and work mightily for the advancement and perfection of this great nation. We need to be more considered about the inside color, than the outside and the thing done in the light. IN THE falling asleep of Mrs. R. B. Higgins of Greenwood, Miss., on July 11th, the race lost a useful woman. She has led the forces of her county and state in many different ways. She was an old school teacher and leader for children. She wore a smile for everyone. She was the wife of Rev. D. W. Higgins the president of the State Sunday School Convention. Her health had been failing the past two years, but she fought bravely the disadvantages of life and surrendered only to live with Jesus. WE ARE PLEASED to add to our list of exchanges, The Howard Alumni, of Howard University, a very attractive magazine, worthy and well arranged. WITH PRIDE we note "The Tattler" a quarterly Y. M. C. A. Magazine, edited by Mr. W. L. Hutcherson. This is a new field for him, but he makes a very inspiring start and if his work increases with his experience in this new field, he will be rated as a worthy, enthusiastic journalist. EVERY TIME we would be pessimistic, there happens right before our eyes, things that make us see the Spirit of Christ, living in the hearts of His children and they are always planning ways to manifest His mind to the less fortunate. Now, 400 children of the city, in homes of charity and mercy are looking forward to the 1st Tuesday in August when the Sunshine Special will leave for Timmermeyer's Grove for an all day picnic. This movement was started in Nassville, Tenn. in 1926 with a Motto: "To bring happiness into the lives of such children to whom it does not ordinarily come." What a lovely way to manifest the mind of the Christ. Mr. Edward A. Opperman is chairman of this happy occasion. REV. Z. E. McGEE of Omaha, Neb. is moving to Chicago, to take up work there, after several years of successful pastorate. Rev. McGee pastored in Helena, Ark., prior to his going to Omaha.

EXCELSIOR CLUB This club an organization of young men made a very substantial contribution in assisting boys to Scout Camp. This is the second time, during the present calendar year that this organization has made a contribution toward assisting worthy boys. Last fall they sent a substantial check to assist a Negro youth of Wichita, who is enrolled in one of the schools of the South, where he is in preparatory for leadership among his people. The recent contribution made possible a splendid delegation of whom would not have otherwise been able to attend. W. L. HUTCHERSON, Dep. Com. Wichita Council, Boy Scouts of Amer.
