THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol. 22, No. 31, PROF. WOODS IN NEW POSITION LOUISVILLE, KY., Nov. 2, Elaborate ceremonies attended the dedication here a few days ago of the John Little Mission Building, recently erected at a cost of $107,000 and now occupied as a center of religious and social work among the colored people of this city. The dedication exercises were attended by many hundreds of people and a number of prominent citizens took part in the program. The building was afterward thrown open for inspection and multitudes of admiring visitors filed through. The completion of this magnificent plant marks an epocal milestone in the work of the mission, which was begun twenty-nine years ago by Rev. John Little, then a student in Louisville Presbyterian Seminary. Still under Dr. Little's direction, it is now perhaps the most important institution of the kind in the entire country. Located at the corner of Hancock and Roselane Streets, it has all the facilities needed for a religious and social center. It contains a church auditorium ad nSunday School quarters and houses the Grace Preabsterian Church. In addition it has class rooms, domestic science and manual training equipment, recreational facilities, gymnasium, and shower baths. "It has surpassed our fondest hopes," said Dr. Little, "and is a credit to all concerned." The funds for the new plant were contributed by the people of Louisville, in an enthusiastic inter-denominational campaign conducted last year. The Mission is distinctly an interracial project and its success is due to the hearty support and cooperation of both groups. Commenting on this phase of the enterprise, Dr. Little said, "I know of nothing that will do more to establish, a friendly relations, ip between the races than such a building as this." Kans.

Woods, former teacher of sociology in Sam Houston State Teachers College at Huntsville, has accepted the position of state director for the Texas Commission on Interracial Cooperation, according to an announcement by Dr. W. P. Meroney, Chairman of Commission, at the annual meeting now in session in this city.

As much interest was shown in the battle in Topcka, we are giving the facts: you done it out the best you WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Nov. 8, 1929. A REMARKABLE CASE SETTLED The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is scoring heavily in practically every case it has seen fit to back with its legal staff, influence and finance. The case of Bon Bess, reported from Columbia, South Carolina, is without a precedent, so far as we know within the legal annals of this country. Having been convicted of an assault upon a white woman and having served thirteen years of the thirty years' sentence, upon the affidavit from the white woman saying he was not guilty of the crime, he was pardoned by Governor Richards. Some one got her to repudiate the confession after Ben Bess had been released from the penitentiary and Governor Richards, revoked the pardon or attempted so to do, Bess being reincarcerated in prison. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court of South Carolina and the court ruled that a pardon once granted cannot be revoked, even though fraud in its issuance be shown. Bess has been released. Whether he will remain in South Carolina is a question for him to consider. Most people, who know South Carolina, and its lawless elements would be on the move in an effort to reach the North Pole, if they could get that far in safety. Each team up to Nov. 1st had played four games and lost one. Lincoln tied the Alumni 6 to 6 and defeated Western College 12 to 0; then lost to Lincoln High of East St. Louis, 24 to 6. Lincoln has scared thirty-eight points while their opponents have scored thirty; which would show that the Tiger defense is none too strong. In Epps, Clarkson and Gantt, Coach Shepard has a nice performing trio that have been consistent ground gainers, Coleman who has been on all-conference end for the past two years, and Lyons make strong defensive ends. K. V. S., after dropping a tough game to the soldiers, 6 to 0, has been going strong taking Bartlett 19 to 14 and defeating Western College 54 to 0 and Western University 14 to 6. The Buffaloes have scored eighty-seven points while their opponents got twenty-six. This would show that K. V. S. has a stronger defense than Lincoln. The bulwark of the vocationalist's defense is Vaughn and Ross at tackle In Silvey, Todd and Jewell, Coach Douglass has three fast powerful backs that are hard to stop. Fields and Hill are two ends that not only are good defensive ends but are good pass receivers and run interference. As analyzed it would appear as if K. V. S, has the edge but most of their games have been non-conference games and Shelby, who is ineligible for conference, has added pench to the Buffalooes' backfield, but he will be missed Friday. Taking the facts as they are presented it appears as $ ^{1} $ the struggle will be a torsip. Hutchinson Briefs Sunday School of the 2nd Baptist Church gave a big Hallowe'en entertainment in the basement Thursday night for the general public. Those assisting in the movement are Mrs. L. H. Turner, Mrs. Paul Perkinson, Mrs. James Reed, Chester I. Louis Court and fifes Bernice Anita Reed, Sec., of the school. The Masonic Harmony Four, a male curtet rang at the K. of P.

His interpretation of his foreign group was very good. He sang them with as much ease as he did the English, he demonstrated very successfully what real study will do for one. Every word was distinct in his soft passages as well as the fortissimo ones. His stage personality was in every way, pleasing to the very appreciative audience. It was encouraging to be so graciously received in one's old home town, after so many years of absence. Much credit and gratitude is due the City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs and the St. Paul Choir for presenting Wichita such a pleasing recital for the opening of the concert season. Miss Eugenia Perry, one of the young home girls, very efficiently accompanied Mr. Reeves, adding another honorable link into Wichita's chain of talents. Get Ready for Roland Hayes!

TELLS THAT LOWE IS STILL OFF DUTY NEW YORK, Nov. 1—A writ restraining school authorities from interfering with the attendance at the new Gage School, of the children of a colored citizen, has been won in Topeka, Kansas, according to report made to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by Mrs. Charles W. French, Secretary of the Topeka Branch. The children of Howard K. Foster had gone, with white children to the old Gage School. When the new school was opened in September, the principal abetted by the school board, declined to admit the Foster children. A. J. Stout, Superintendent of schools, to whom the matter went, told Mrs. Foster the children must travel 3 miles by bus to attend Buchanan School, a colored institution, the nearest bus stop being 4 blocks from their home. The case was taken to court by William M. Bradshaw, colored assistant to the State Attorney General, and Earl Thomas Reynolds. ELWOOD HEARINGS Rev.

Newer News, Union Lesson for November 10 /ORLD PEACE THROUGH MU- TUAL UNDERSTANDING LESSON TEXT—Ia. 8 2-4; 11 6-10; 9 23-23; Acts 17.22-28; John 4 20, 21 GOLDEN TEXT—they shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain, or the earth shall be full of the knowl- dge of the Lord as the waters cover he sea PRIMARY TOPIC—Friends the World ,found JUNIOR TOPIC—Friends the World ground INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- C-WORKING FOR WORLD PEACE WORKING FOR WORLD PEACE YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Our Share in Promoting International Understanding The lesson title is somewhat mis- ending it is not world peace through mutual understanding, but through the actual coming of Jesus (Christ the Messiah, and the establishment of His kingdom on the earth. 1. Messiah's Kingdom Established Isa. 2:2-4. By "mountain" in the Scriptures is meant a kingdom (Dan. 2:35, Rev. 13:1, 17:9 11) 1. Its position (v 2). It shall be in a place of supremacy. The kingdoms of the world shall then become the kingdom of Christ (Rev. 11:16). 2. The restored kingdom the teacher of the gentiles (v 3) God called Israel and made her the priestly union in order that she might make known its name among other nations. Now, after many centuries of apostasy and rebellion, the chosen nation comes into its own. Gods favor will be so outstanding as to gain the attention of the whole world. 3. The Divine Judge (v 4) The problems of the world which are so beyond man's capacity to solve will be adjudicated by the One who is all wise, and he shall then rebuke many people. Because of this rebuke, they shall convert their implements of war into implements of husbandry and shall learn war no more. 11. Description of Hie Reign (Isa 11:0-10) Universal peace between men and animals will prevail. In this picture each animal is coupled with that one upon which it naturally preys 1. The wolf shall dwell with the lamb 2. The leopard shall lie down with the kid. 3. The calf, the young lion and the futling shall lie down together. 4. A little child shall lend them. 5. The cow and bear shall feed together. 6. The lion shall eat straw like the ox. 7. The suckling child shall play upon the hole of the asn. 8. The wrenned child shall put its hand upon the den of the cockatille The coming of Christ will have a regenerating effect upon the whole creation The only peace for the earth will be when Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, shall reign. III. Peace Among the Nations by Means of the Knowledge of God (Acts 17:22-28). The way to bring peace among the nations is to make God known. Paul began his discourse on Mars bill by referring to one of their inscriptions, "To the unknown God," and declared that it was his purpose to make known this God unto them. By using this as his point of contact he made declarations about God and unto which if recognized will tend to the unity of the nations. 1. Declaration concerning God (vv 24, 25) (1) The Creator of the universe (2) Lord of heaven and earth Being essentially spirit. He demands heart worship, and being Creator He cannot be confined to an earthly temple (3) His active providence He de- clared that in Illo we live and move and have our being 2. Declaration concerning man (vv. 26-31) (1) We are the offspring of God (v. 29) (2) Nations have their place by God's purpose (3) Men should seek God. The truth thus declared concerning God and man, if received will remove national and racial barrers. IV. The Basis of National Union (John (20: 21) The coming union of nations will not be in forms or symbols but in spirit. The union of the race must be around Jesus Christ Being united to illum as hed men are brought into fellowship with God. The Christian church is the supreme unifier of nations (Ephesi 4:3-0). If we would hasten world peace, let us with alliance and enthusiasm endenment to induce men to give allegiance to Jesus Christ.

B. Macauley. BY REV. J. W. HAYES. 615 Wabash Avenue SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1929 "Uprooting the Cause of War." Acts 17:21-31. James 3:13-18, 4:1-3 The cause of war is selfishness, which is the essence of sin, and the precious blood of Jesus is the only remedy. The Gospel, the power of God unto Salvation will uproot the cause of war and plant instead, the reign of peace. It is the leaven in the lump and had its origin in the man of Galilee. God made of one blood all nations of men to live peaceably upon the earth as one great family. When man lost Paradise, he lost peace and substituted instead, a state of war. Out of the heart are the issues of life and there can be no peace and happiness until the source is purified. And in the house of David there is a fountain opened for sin and unclean- THOUGHTS. Society must be regenerated by the Blood of the Lamb and a citizenship produced that can be trusted before we can lie down in peace. Physical warfare is sin in action, and the wage of sin is death. If we are to have peace among men we must have peace in men. QUESTIONS. Could the World's War have been prevented Is humanity better off as a result of war? Is it ever right to fight? What to you is the greatest conquest? Will the modern methods to prevent war, succeed? What remedy would you offer for permanent peace? St. Mary Bapt. Church. REV. J. E. DOUGLASS, 'ASTOR MRS.

I have faith in the Baptist family of Kansas, and in accepting the position of Executive Secretary and Missionary and in leaving a Church of a happy pastorate of more than nineteen years, to become the servant of the Baptist of Kansas, I am making a 'venture on faith,' believing that we can do the task; knowing that what we do will be vitally linked up with what others are doing. You are therefore urged to cooperate. Tdis we ought to do, because, "We that are strong ought to bear the informities of the week." This we must do if we would measure up to the responsibility of the task that is ours. The hour has come for a system of giving in doing work for the Lord and it the purpose of this appeal to to ask, yes, to urge, each church and church auxiliary to make a regular monthly contribution through this office for State Missions. We are still hard pressed for money for Missionary Pastors' aid, our Educational Work, (Seninary Work) and our loan obligation. With a monthly contribution from each Church, Mission Society, Sunday School and B. Y. P. U., we could meet our obligations and this would mean freedom from all financial embarrassments. This ought to be our ambition in this our common task. Let me enroll your Church, your Mission Society, your Sunday School, your B. Y. P. U., as monthly regulars:—Sending some money every month to the Executive Secretary for I DON'T WANT YOUR MONEY If you are satisfied with Ugly Gray and faded Hair, that makes you look like you are fifty years old when you are only thirty.

Sunday School opened at 10 a.m. by Supt. Bro. Abie Rogers, with a good attendance. Review by Mrs. Classie Kelly, teacher of Class No. 4; all classes are rallying for the banner, but No. 4 is still leading. 11 a. m., music by Junior Choir; sermon by the pastor; text: "Jesus, The Great Physician." The pastor stated that: Jesus came not into the world to park himself along the fence of luxury, not to display His royal sceptre among men; neither, was He from heaven on a vacation; as some Christians think when they are converted—that is all; and take the back seat and don't do any more. They are on their Christian vacation; It was not so with Jesus. His mission was to do for humanity what it could not do for itself. He said, the reason the church is having such a struggle, is because many in the church have not seen the Priest; they need to go and show themselves to the Priest. This was indeed a great sermon. B. Y. P. U. opened at 6 p. m., with president, Mrs. Anna Brown in the chair. Christian Culture Course was taught by the pastor. Junior section rendered an excellent program, with a percentage of 99 1-2. Visitors were Mrs. Cassie V. Harris, Mrs. Bell Dixon, Bro. Dixon, Mrs. Crossa Bass, Bro. Virgil Harris and Miss Cassie Harris. Devotions were conducted by the deacons; music by Senior Choir. Sermon by pastor, text, Rev. 21:1; subject: The men of old looked for a new heaven and a new earth. The pastor emphasized that the King put for preaching the word of God, but John on the Isle of Patmos to die Patmos was the beet place John had ever witnessed, because it was there he beheld the invisible realms.
