Negro Star

THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE Vol. 22, No. 42, FEED MY SHEEP NOW MEANS "FLEECE MY SHEEP (BY NANNIE H. BURROUGHS) WHY PROFLE CO TO THE DOGS INSTEAD OF TO CHURCH Negroes have invested more money in churches than they have in any other enterprise in the world. When churches are used, PROFERLY, the people get more out of them than they do out of nay other en erprise in the world. The ministers are their only welfare group for whose salaries and upkeep Negroes seem to feel responsible. Up to the last decade the Negro tork the Church and his religious olligations most seriously. He felt it he's "bounden" duty to build churches and "spote" the ministry. In return for the investment in property and their fidelity to the cause, the race has millions of dollars tied up in churches that are shut up four-fifths of the year, run down, going to pieces, staring still while the leaders are wasting time and money fighting, masacrading, half preaching or preaching spurious doctrines, in the name of the Christian religion. A relatively small number are doing anything like their duty in bringing the people up and out of the mire and the clay and establishing their going. The colossal waste and bad management that is so evident in Negro church life, would not be tolerated or supported in any other enterprise or profession Religion! Religion! what awful and enormous waste is indulged in, in thy name! People put their money into the churches from dissemination of the truth, the regeneration of mankind, the edification of the mind and soul, the creation of a new earth, where in dwelleth righteousness. But from nine-tenths of our churches the people are not getting anything that approaches the spiritual and moral returns that they should get on their tremendous investments. The Bible asks, "Will a man rob God?" Yes, any church that gets a dollar's worth of surface and gives back a dime's worth of results is robbing God and man. That is just what every church that is shut up four-fifths of the time, run down, reglected, and tolerates poor preaching and questionable living on the part of the leaders, represents a dime for your dollar—in some cases, even the dime has a hole in it. ACT AT ONCE! CONDITIONS made it necessary to postpone the State Executive Board that was to have riot in Chanute, Jan. 22, 24, 1930, but did not stop state obligations, so we are asking every B. Y.

CONSTRUCTION PLANS January 16—Construction pla on the Southwestern Loll Tele home Company for Kansas call for a gross expenditure of more than five million dollars in 1930, it was announced today by P. H. Hopkins, division general manager of the company. This is a part of the construction program for the five states in which the Southwestern Company operates, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, which will require an estimated expenditure of 52 million dollars during 1930. This amount exceeds by nearly 12 million dollars the construction expenditure for 1920. Increased use of the telephone and the necessity of providing for an expected increase in the number of telephones in Kansas during the year makes the expenditure necessary. The company now serves more than 468,000 telephones in the state. New buildings are one of the major items in the 1931 program. New telephone offices or additions to present offices are planned at Topela, Hutchinson, and Independence. The underground long distance cable which will be placed during the year, is a part of the project started in 1929 to connect the principal cities of the Southwestern Company by underground telephone lines. Danger of service interruptions by storm, flood, or fire is practically eliminated where wires are underground. The Kansas City—Jorlin Cable will be placed down the kansas side of the line. Amplifying equipment which will renew voice currents as they pass throughs the cable are necessary approximately each 50 miles. A building to house such equipment will be erected near LaCygne, another near Ft. Scott. Dial telephones will come to Wichita, about March 1, Hopkins announced. A new building has been erected, dial equipment has been installed, telephone lines have been routed to the new office. The Building of new long distance circuits, extension of telephone lines in exchanges where growth demands additional telephone facilities, new switchboards and associated equipment, purchase of new telephone instruments are the other items in the 1900 program. By increasing our 1900 appropriation over that of last year, Hopkins said, "we demonstrate our belief in the future development of Kansas and recognize our responsibilities of providing adequate telephone service to the people of the state." M. B. Talbert Y.W.C.A The Committee of Management will meet Wednesday afternoon, June 22, at 4 o'clock. The Chairmen for the various sub-committees will be appointed by the Branch Chirman at this meeting. Every member is urged to be present. Miss Helen D. Pevers, General Secretary at Central Association, talked to the High School Girl Reserves Wednesday afternoon on the "Life of Miss Mabel Catty." The devotions were read by Jewel Jordan, Cphela Goranu, program chairman, presented the speaker. In response to the request by the president, Muriel Letcher, members of the club consented to serve as Big Sister to the new girls entering High School, the second semester. Miss Katherine Lee Davis, Girl Reserve Secretary, remains ill at her home in Kansas City, Missouri. Dr. F. L. Barnett was the speaker at the Sunday afternoon Forum, Sunday, January 19. He gave some interesting statistics on the New youths in Wichita Schools. Time was limited and the discussion was discontinued with the hope that Dr. Barnett will talk on this subject again in the near future.

SOCIAL CENTER FOR COLORED OF NEW OREANS SOCIAL CENTER FOR COLORED OF NEW OREANS REV. U D. MOONEY WILL HEAD IMPORTANT WORK ENTERPRISED BY SOUTHERN PRESBYTERIANS. NEW ORLEANS, LA., Jan. 21—An important colored social and community center is to be established here shortly by the Presbytery of New Orleans, and Rev. Urban D. Mooney, for sixteen years pastor of one of the city's leading Southern Presbyterian churchss, has resigned his pastinate and accepted a call to head the new enterprise. The work will be under the direction of a committee of prominent preachers and laymen, and in general will follow the lines of the noted Presbyterian Colored Mission in Louisville, Kentucky, which has been so remarkably successful under the administration of Rev John Little Dr. Mooney's resignation will take effect on February 1, and he will immediately begin the active promotion of the new enterprise, which will require not only the working out of detailed plans, but also the raising of funds necessary to provide the plant. The amount needed for this purpose has been apportioned among the Presbyterian churches of New Orleans and no trouble is anticipated in raising funds. In view of the fact that New Orleans has a colored population of 125,000, it is believed there is an excellent field here for this line of endeavor. Kans. Vocational School KANSAS VOCATIONAL HERD GETS CLEAN HUL OF HEALTH The Kansas Vocational School has just received from the Kansas State Live Stock Sanitary Commission and United States Bureau of Animal Industry a certificate covering not only first test but a retest of four pure Irod and twenty grade Holstein cows. All of these tested absolutely free of any trace of Tuberculosis. Upon the retest the Kansas States Live stock Sanitary Commission and U. S. Bureau of Animal Industry granted the Kansas Vocational School dairy herd a health certificate for twelve months. K. V. S. LOWNS OSKALOOSA The Buffaloes stumped over Os- kaloos, Saturday night in the r first home game of the season. With Silvey, veteran guard, and Cleveland, first string center, in the hospital on account of colds, Conch Douglass used thirteen men during the first half before he got a combi- nation that would go. The half ended 9 to 6 with the Buffaloes training. Starting the second half with Hill, I. Told, Anderson, Carter and Smith the capital city boys immediately began to pull up from behind; and with Catter's wonderful floor game coupled with the accurate shooting of Hill, they soon took the lead, never to be headed. The quarter ended with K. V. S., leading 11 to 11. At the opening of the fourth quarter Hill got hot and the scene mourned rapidly. The game ended with K. V. S. on the long end of a 53 to Five Cents Per Copy. INTERRACE MEET DRAWS CROWD IN "OLD VOL" STATE INTERRACE MEET DRAWS CROWD IN "OLD VOL" STATE Leaders Discuss Mutual Problems at Annual Meeting of Tennessee Interracial Committee. NASHVILLE, TENN., Jan. 24 "There is no such thing as a superior race, though there are superior individuals within each race," was the statement of Rabbi Julius Mark, in his key-note address before the annual meeting of the State Interracial Committee in this city a few days ago. "The illusion of race superiority is a fallacy," Dr. Mark continued, "and gives rise to a great deal of trouble. People should learn also that race prejudice is not instinctive but acquired. Consequently it can be eradicated." The address of Dr. Mark was one of a number of interesting discussions of various phases of race relations. Among the speakers were Dr. W. J. Hale, president A. & M. College; Judge John H Dowitt, of the state court of appeals; Dr. E. L. Bishop, state commissioner of health; J M. Robinson, state welfare director; Lee Loventhal, of the city park board; Dr. C. V. Roman, Dr. Robert T. Burt, Dr. Mattie Coleman and Mrs. C. L. Kinkead. Robert E. Clay, state Rosenwalu ngent and associate interracial secretary, reported that interracial committees throughout the state are contributing largely toward the erection of Negro Schools. Judge Dewitt commended the work being done to secure uniform justice for both races, and Dr. Bishop told of the state-wide health campaign that is being carried on. Other subjects considered were institutional care, parks and playgrounds, the welfare of colored women and children, and activities. The need of better transportation facilities was featured and will form one of the Committee's major objectives in the coming year. More than sixty persons were present, representing all parts of the state. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Chairmen, Dr. James E. Clarke and Dr. R. T. Burt; recording secretary, Dr. J. A. Lester; treasurer, Hon. J. C. Napier; chairman on Interracial Lengue, Dr. W. J. Hale; state secretaries, J. D. Burton and Robert L. Clay. 16 score. O-kalooa's attack was centered in Lloyd Todd, a long shot artist, who was high point man for the invaders with fourteen points, and second to Hill, who scored 10 points. Hill and Carter were again the mainstays of the Buffaloos. The passing and defense work of these two were as important factors in the victory as Hill's shooting. Smith and Todd show improvement over last week's performance. Coach Douglass' five-man offensive was working almost machine like and five men figured in the scoring. After the game a social was hell in the dining room of Larimer Hall. Sandwiches and cocoa were served. 4 ‘ gf = a g a ~ * —————— Irproved Uniterm International v y v Lesson (By REV POR EuSW ATS.

HALES. 6i3 Wabash Avenue SUNDAY, JANUARY 26, 1930 Subject: What Ie Our Charch Plans Year? DENOMINATIONAL DAY Texts Acts 2:4047;19:13 Pahaps the most the church can do and all that it ts expected to do, ja to carry out the Divine Pan, the Great Commission aa recorded in Matt, 28:19, 20; Mark 16:1G;and the Church Program as givon In Luke 11:22-29. In Luke we have the piogram of worship, education evangelism and benevolence, In Matt, we have the marching orders, “Go Ye." So it is not a new plan but more interest, wore light and move Inspiration, A passion for souls and to extend the Kingdom, are the essential nceds. These characteristics will beget a new approach to the old plan, We can never improve on a per fect jlau but we can make Improves nent upon our imperfect hnowledge of the plan, and increase our faith which turns on the powcr that ena- bles the church to carry out the Di+ vine Injunction, Our church as a denomination needs a three-fold vision, a vision of God, a vision of itself and a vision of the field. | God has planned the work and will furnish the power and all else necd- ed to work His plan. That we vo-op- erate with him Is his only demand. The plan we should know and work is—1, A redcemed membership; 2. A, trained membership reproducing the hfe of Christ in the life of soci- ety. THOUGHTS Perhaps there Is a greater need for men than for plans. Christ did not leave the planning for man, his part is co-operation, The New Testa- ment is the rule of faith and prace tice, The greatest need of the church is, better men rather than more men, The program of Jesus must be known and followed, if the Lumb and and Lion are to le down together and a child is to be their master, ee PAOLA NEWS NOTES Mt Olive Baptist Sunday School and church was well attended.

The Jr. Department in the basement, with Mrs. E. M. Hamilton, leading, is making some noticeable progress.

After evictionals the lesson was taught. Review 10 minutes by Bro. Proctor of class No. 3; report of Secretary, and grading for the contest was given.

Church services began with devotionals conducted by Sister Johnson and the deacons. Scripture reading from John 15:1-15, was conducted by the pastor. Rev.

A special Prohibition Program was rendered at the A. M. H. Church at p. under auspices of L. I. L. Attendance was good.

Shermon, who gave us to know, when the call comes to us we must respond, and as many as were present who have stared, were glad and encouraged, knowing that Jesus is our leader, we can only go forward. Review by pastor. Devotion was led by Deacon Kelly, who made an inspiring talk on needing Jesus as our leader to go onward and upward in Kingdom building. Our souls were lifted knowing deacon Kelley is a man who loves and teaches, "Love Ye One Another." Pastor preached from St. John 8: 36: "If the son therefore make you feel free, ye shall be free indeed." Subject: "Freedom in Jesus." We were made to know once being freed by Jesus the Son, we can be as Moses, as Abraham, or as Isaiah, who through a fore-seeking spirit, saw the coming of Christ and is the only prophet who has 66 books composing the Old and New Testament. B. Y. P. U. opened at 1 o'clock, President in chair; lesson taught by pastor. We realized from the lesson study that the name Mission means extension or broadening and as we are traveling in the footsteps of Jesus, the greatest Missionary on earth, we should expand mission. Why? Because mission was expurred for us and we are commanded to do unto others as we would have them do to us. We should expand mission because it is the only road by which we can enter eternal pen e. So, for this and many other reasons we should extend missions. 8 p. m. Rev. Williams of Calvary, brought the message from Isaiah 6: 8; "here am I send me." Suita "Missions." The message was insoung, encouraging and enthusiastic as our very souls rejoined to be in a work that requires us to say, Ird I'll do what you won't me to! I'll go where you want me to go, and I'll say what you want me to say. Those on the sick list are Mrs. Nadine Moon, whom it is thought, suffered a light stroke; the face but is improved; and Mrs. Rosa Nichols is also improved. Come out and work with us Sunday and hear your own Rev. Saunders, who is making an effort to extend missions through the word of God. Come out and hear you now.

When one doesn't know, it is more of a possibility for him to be spirited, rather than spiritual. A poor drunken man likes to be made foolish and spirited while a thinker likes to meditate and become spiritual. Are you studying and meditating or are your motor nerves controlling? THE WICHITA BEACON reveals the fact that 5,795,148 cigars were smoked in Wichita in 1929. At 5c each, would be $289,757.40 or at 10c each $579,514.80. While it praised the fact that the major part of them were made in America, the Christian family worry over the fact that this great sum could wrought wonders in Relief Funds in Far East. Millions of Chinamen are starving, while America puffs her millions in smoke. The Master said, "Gather up the fragments that nothing be lost." IT IS ALARMING in the Northeastern District, when you think that every large church is without a pastor, or about to become in such position. At Atchison, Revs. Henderson, Frazier and Sanders are gone or are going; at Leavenworth, Revs. Anthony and Davidson, are gone or going, it seems; and at Horton, Rev. Owen has gone. What could be the trouble? Are the Kansas ministers feeding the flocks or fleeing the flocks? Are the ministers studying to serve or boss? Are the flocks made up of goats and think they are sheep? It does seem reasonable that if they are God's flock, and the minister is God's chosen shepherd—he would lead and they would follow. This is a matter pertaining to eternal things and should not be in this condition. Both sides should pray and study to prove worthy.

The author is one of the first living protestant scholars, and a recognized authority on all matters concerning the primitive races. His learned works on the non-civilized people were reviewed in our columns at the time of publication. M. Allier seeks to remove the mistaken idea which has prevailed almost universally in the churches during the last three centuries that a Divine curse was laid upon the black races as descendants of Ham, the son of Noah. He himself was taught in Sunday School, as many thousands of other children have been taught, that the disrespectful conduct of Ham to his father had called down a penalty, pronounced by the patriarch himself, which would not be extinguished while the world endured. A STRANGE ERROR A glance at the passage in Genesis, as M. Allitr shows, ought of itself prove that not the slightest allusion was ever intended to the black races or to a curse pronounced on them. The penalty was inflicted on Canaan, and the passage merely predicts the coming victories of Israel over the natives of that land. The early Church, as the French scholar reminds us, knew nothing of any curse upon the dark races. One of the first Christian converts was an Ethiopian. The mediaeval legend that one of the three royal visitors to the infant Saviour was a black chieftain named Gaspard was adopted by Durer in representing the Adoration of the Magi. More curious still is the fact that for centuries all Europe believed that there existed in Abyssinia a Christian Kingdom, governed by Prester John. The story was circulated in the age of the Crusades, and it was rumored that this dark ruler would one day come to the aid of the Christian armies against the Saracens. Pope Alexander III, actually wrote a letter inviting him to form an alliance with the Roman See. When St. Ignatius Loyola, in the sixteenth century, was writing instructions to his missionaries in Ethiopia, "he advised them to act in all things with the approval of that sovereign—whose only fault was that he never existed." ORIGIN OF THE MISTAKE Professor Allier next evonerates Lu-, by careful reference to his writings, from the charge that in his expositions of Genesis the Reformer lent encouragement to the view that the weight of Divine displeasure rested upon the Negro race. No such reference can be found from his own pen, though bungling commentator have misrepresented his words The notion of the "curse on Ham" as extended to one of the great branches of the human family is an invention of Rabbinic literature. The belief, supported by Talmudic passages, prevailed for many years in the Ghettoes of Europe. When the slave-trade developed in the age of discovery, those who profited by the abominable industry seized greedily upon the Rabbis' teaching, and applied it to their own ends. As Raoul Allier says, the doctrine of the curse has had a gravely prejudicial effect on missions, and it ought to be finally repudiated by the Churches. We have no doubt that in Abuwsiria, where the slave-trade as Lady Simon's book has shown, prevails in an aggravated and obstinate form, the priests are to this day employing the passage in Genesis as an argument that the exploiting of the MADRAME ESLINGER BACCUS.

Allier, "have been the victims of the champions of slavery." By a curious paradox the leaders of the liberation movement in the nineteenth century were themselves firmly convinced of the reality of on ancestral curses. The time has come when missionaries and Christian teachers generally ought to abandon forever an entirely mistaken exegesis. —The British Weekly. = Sates
