Subject:—"What is Worship?" Text: Psalm 96:1-6., John 4:20 24. Worship is a recognition of worth, an act of paying divine honor to a Diety. Kissing the statue of a God was an early Arabic custom in worship. To come reverently into the presence of the infinite, to honor and adore Him is worship. We must be conscious of His presence, holiness and power and of our sinfulness, weakness and guilt. It is more of an attitude than posture, sensing our need and God's willingness to supply. It is not so much what we say in worship but rather what we are and the soul's motive. Our lesson teaches that we are to come into His presence with joy thanksgiving and song, recognizing God as above all gods and the possessor of land and sea. The place where the fathers worshipped and where we worship may matter some in helping to create the spirit of worship but the state of the heart is much more important than the place of the body. We worship the Great and Good Spirit. We can only do that in spirit and in truth The only justifiable ground for attending church is to meet face to face with God and worship Him. For worship heart preparation is the essential one. To worship God should be the ruling passion of every assembled saint. True worship is determined neither by the place, song or message but by one's personal relationship with God. Tabernacle B. Church, MRS. A. B. WILLIAMS, REPORTER he was glad to be in Phoenix. He was much pleased with this new country and the First" Colored Baptist Church of this City should be congratulated for having a man, who is one of the outstanding men of the race.

The other day I saw a patient canine, acenting the pavement as it toiled slowly but patiently at the collar. My eyes followed the chain. A few feet away were a large pair of hands, trembling not unhike the last aven leaf upon the bough of autumn His steps were tardy, his thews faltered conceivably, and his eyes were closed as if in mercy to shield from his mortal vision, the pity of the world! Blind, unaided and alone, another passes by. He is at the edge of a dangerous curb, but wheels suddenly as the hand of God had turned him round. Up the street he goes—his cane beating a rapid tattoo on the stone, which is as cold as the heart of the world; but his spirit is still unausted. Do you hear the discordont note of the organ, mingled with the plaintiff cry of a woman accustomed to the rebuff of the world? What a debacle of human sorrow confined within the narrow limits of a day! Nor is that all. Come with me as the alley and see a drink crazed man; ragged, forsaken and alone—but human for all of that. What! leave him here to perish and to die? True enough, he is the willing victim of his sorrow and his woe; but when did charity discard the mantle of pity for the robe of scorn? He, who with holds his dollar from the "Chest" or his penny from the cup of the beggar, is as much an object of charity as the grooming millions, who flounder in the street of despair. God, in mercy bless the pittance which I give; but when the struggle of life is over, mark me as one who truly beves his fellow-man. WILLIAM EDGAR BAILEY 612 Parallel Ave. Kansas City, Kans. S.

Vocational School TOPEKA, KANS.-Coach Douglas' thundering herd swept down upon the Western Bulldogs and defeated them on the K. V. field Saturday, October 19, 14 to 6. The field was slippery and rain fell in showers during the contest. This made it difficult for Western's shift plays to get under way, but Waters and Brown made nice gains. From the outact vocationalist had the advantage. Presenting a well balanced attack they had the invaders on the defensive most of the time. The Buffaloes scored first. When Coach Wilson started his second team, Jewell, K. V. quarterback, statuted in and soon carried the ball to the ten-yard line on passes and end runs. There Western, alled by substitutions, held it and Brown kicked to midfield where Todd's fleet kicked back grabbed it on the bounce and on it back to the ten-yard line. and ran it back to the ten-yard in. Coach Wilson had sent his entire first string in but the Herd had smelled blood and were not to be denied. Jewell went through the line for four yards; Silvey added five more on left tackle and went over on a split bucc Hill kicked goal. That ended K. V. S's scores for the half. Western started a charge that carried them to the twenty-yard line from where Shelby attempted to kick but fumbled and Western recovered. K. V. again eheld for downs, but Shelby's punt was blocked and Livingstone, Western's center, recovered for their only score. After the half K. V. came back strong and carried the ball to Western four-yard line, where Jewell fumbled and Western recovered, but Davis, Buffalo diminutive guard, broke through and blocked Brown's kick; Hill recovered for a touchdown. Jewell plunged the extra point. Silvey and Todd were the chief ground gainers for the Buffaloes while Waters and Brown were the mainstays of the invaders. The K. V. line outcharged, out gained and out fought its heavier opponents. Ross, Vaughn at tackles were the bulwark of the K. V. defense. On November 1, K. V. S. will play Lincoln High.

The article in last issue: "Are Boys' Camps A Pagan Influence?" indies me of an attack made on the YM.C.A., by one of our local ministers, at the Baptist State Convention. He expressed an inconsistency that was surprising and an ignorance of the movement that was refreshing. This age is too enlightened today to put much confidence in inconsistencies. That very same minister has spoken in no definite and primitive terms in defense of the Young Men's Christian Association. "Are colence?" by the pupils. Revived by the pa- tor.

T Gratitude Conquers the Grave Great men, unappreciated by the generations that lived while they lived, have all-too-frequently gone to their graves unsung. Seldom are contemporaries able to see the gratitude of those they benefited. How wonderful, is it then, that one who has done more for his generation and the generations to come than any man of history may feel the whole-hearted appreciation that comes from the hearts of those whose lives have been made better, happier, safer and wiser, because he lived. Light's Golden Jubilee is a token of that appreciation—the appreciation of the world for the works of Thomas A. Edison. The industry, one of the world's greatest, made possible by the contributions of Edison, pays its humble tribute to this benefactor of mankind, joining heartily in the co-operative venture which celebrates his marvelous achievements. A world demonstrates its sincere thankfulness to a living man. Gratitude has conquered the grave!
