Through the committed survey, a coloured rower published in Little Rock, Arkansas, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People learns that two young to oer boys, Robert Bell and Grady Swain, once sentenced to death for the alleged murder of a white boy, for whom the N. A. A. C. P., heaped finance two appeals, on their trial, have been sentenced to ten years in prison. Sentenced to death at their first trial in December, 1827, the case was covered by the State Supreme Court, and the second trial resulted in a sentence of ill imprisonment for Robert Bell. The State Supreme Court again reversed the decision, and ordered a new trial. According to the Arkansas Survey: "Monday was spent in trying to secure a lurv. Only nine jurors were abalmed, and rather than carry the case over another year, the lawyers compranised the case. The open entry pleaded guilty and threw themselves on the mercy of the court. Judge Davenport sentenced them to ten years in the peritentiary. To procure the original convicton which was reversed, the boys were threatened, terrified and tortured with whippings in order to make them sign a "coffession." The N. A. A. C. P., was interested in the case throughout, contributing the sum of $1,240 toward the ex- of the various appeals and trials, and $250 for investigation. Had a white attorney not intervened in he case, and the Association backed him up, it is likely that the two young colored boys would have been executed charged with a murder or which their titorney and the N. A. A. C. P., believe them innocent! Y. M. C. A. NOTES BASKET BALL JANDOREE This year the local committee de- eled) to promote a local jamboree instead of a tournament.

WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Mar. 14, 1930 THE CAPITAL "N" IN NEGRO The Na loan association for the Administration of Colored Icope, most of us will think, is right in attaining it importance to the fact that a long list of percolators have heeded its arguments and desided to print the word Negro with a capital N. Were it not for certain events in American History, this of course would be an extremely trivial thing; there is no reason in logic why the name of any race should be ctipalized, and in some languages, as for example the French and the German, it is not. But in our language the names of races are capitalized, and that in the United States the Negro race alone should have been designated by a small letter can hardly have been the result of an accident. It seemed to reflect the conviction of the white man in our early days that the Negro was in some way inferior to other races. That the practice was retained, long after constitutional amendments and other pronouncements had put a theoretical end to the notion of inferiority, attacked of hypocrisy. The association is right in working for the capital N, and the realiness with which so many newspapers, magazines, &c., have agreed to use it indicates that the hypoaisy was to a large degree unconscious. So doing, they have contributed in a quiet but enormously effective way to the racial pride of the Negro. It is merely one more sign that the effect of many in that section of the country to ease the acuteness of the racial problem is thoroughly sincere. Kans Vocational School The Book Lovers' Club was delightfully entertained by Miss Anna Lucas last Monday rieht. "The Human Mind' by Dr Menninger is interesting the members at present.

Woodard, Parks, Moore and hostesses at the April NEW YOI.K, Mar. — Introduced by Major Richard L. Metcalfe, Omaha, Nebraska, to an audience of five hundred, in St. John's A. M. E. Church of that city, William A. Leland Secretary of the N. A. C. made a stirring address which we extensively reported in the press of Omaha. Taking for his subject, "Can the Race Problem Be Solved?" Mr. Huckens space of the part played by mental attitudes and the influence of these attitudes; of Negro achievement, particularly in music. "The only thing that creates a rare problem at all," said Mr. Pickens, "is the attitude of a strong group toward a weak one and its lack of undersanding of the weak. It can be solved only by the enlighteners of the strong and the wise members of the week joining hands in changing that attitude."

This is the second victorious step in the fight that has been made to bring the patrolman to justice, the first having been the successful appeal by the N. A. A. C. P., to Chief Magistrate William McAJoo, who authorized a warrant for the natrolman's arrest after he had been discharged by Magistrate Mark Rudich sitting in the Sixth District Court of Brooklyn. It is expected that the case against Pattolman Lowe will be presented to the Grand Jury in a fortnight, at which time the N. A. C. P., will present the witnesses it has assm'led and had in court at the previous hearings.

CHURCHES UNITE IN BEHALF OF NEGRO WELFARE TWELVE DENOMINATIONS PARTICIPATE IN CONFERENCE CALLED BY NORTH CAROLINA INTERRACIAL COMMISSION RAI EIGH, N. C., March 20—Sewenty-five delegates representing twelve different denominations met here last week in a ministerial conference called by the State Interracial Commission, and gave a day to consideration of the conditions of Negro health, education, and general welfare, and the obligations of the churches for the promotion of better interracial conditions. Addresses were made by official representatives of the state departments of education, health, welfare, and justice, who pointed out the fact that distinct gains were being made along all these lines, but that much yet remains to be done. The ministers pledged the cooperation of their respective bodies in promoting the plan of interracial cooperation and in working for the further improvement of conditions. They recommended the introduction of race relations courses into all the church schools, that the subject be given generous space in the church papers, and that a sermon on race relations be preached in every pulpit at least once a year. Closer cooperation between white and colored preachers was urged. The meeting was called to order by Dr. W. C. Jackson, chairman of the State Interracial Commission, and was presided over by Rev. I. Hardine Hughes. The delegates expressed themselves as pleased themselves with the meeting and authorized the chairman to call the group together for further meetings as needed. in Eldorado, last week, and is expected to be moving back, soon.

IRAH, WI YOUNG PEOPLE AND ATHLETES IT—Faith Tested and Triumphant The material embraced in this section of Scripture is too abundant to attempt to cover in one lesson, therefore selection should be made in keeping with the lesson topic. I. Without Honor In One's Own Country (13.54.58). Jesus shared the common fate of men—unknowledged in His own country. Even His own brothers did not believe on Him till after His resurrection (John 7:39, of Acts 1:14). Familiarity has a paralyzing effect, and at times breeds contempt because of unbelief only a limited work could be done there. 11 Jesus Healing the Multitude (14:13, 14). 1. He retired to the desert (v. 13). The news of the cruel death of John the Baptist brought grief to the Master's heart, and He withdrew to a place of quietness to commune with His Father. The best thing to do in time of sorrow is to flow into the presence of God Jesus accepted John's death as typical of His own. 2. Followed by the people (v. 13). He could not be concerned. The peoples' interest was such that they followed Him on foot. Where Jesus is the multitude gathers. 3. Jesus healing the sick (v. 14). Although the rulers had broken with Him, He did not abandon His work. He continued to preach and work for the good of those who would hear. Though desperate and hopeless cases were brought to Him nothing was found too hard for Him. The peoples' great need excited His sympathy. He is just the same today. III. Jesus Healing the Daughter of the Woman at Canaan (Matt. 15:21-81). The first twenty-one verses of this chapter should be considered in connection with this topic. The force of the lesson can only be seen in contrast with the failure of the people Veres 1-20 represent the apostasy of Israel and her rejection of the Sailor in sharp contrast, we see in the healing of this woman, salvation typically going forth to the Gentiles. 1 The mother's awful distress (vv. 21, 22). Her daughter was grievously vexed with a devil. The sufferings of the mother were perhaps an intense as those of the child. This Gentile woman had doubtless heard of the fame of Jesus. His power to heal had come to her notice and many times she lingered for Him to come her way that her daughter might be healed. Now that He was in her neighborhood she came straightway to Him. Let parents be encouraged to bring their children to Jesus, even though they be demon-poseded. 2. The woman's fervent appeal for help (rv. 2225). She fell at His feet and plied for mercy. She besought Him to cast the devil out. Her appeal may be considered as a model prayer. (1) She was sincere and earnest. (2) The prayer was brief and definite. (3) It was personal and humble. (4) It was believing and persistent. 3. The woman's faith rewarded (iv. 2029). (1) The Lord's apparent refusal (v. 23). He answered her not a word. The reason for His silence was that He was sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. This woman was a stranger to the Covenant people. Her appeal was on the wrong basis. She addressed Him as the Son of David, which only a child of the kingdom had a right to do. She must come in the right way. (2) The woman's quick response (v. 2527). As soon as she perceived the difficulty, she worshiped Him as Lord and cried for help While only the Israelite could approach Him as the Son of David, all could come to Him and own Him as Lord. She willingly took her place as a Gentile "dog," recognizing that salvation is of the Jews. (3) The glorious issue of her faith (v. 23). She received more than she asked. Her daughter was healed at once and the instruction she received was worth much to her. She goes down in history with the Savior's commendation of her faith. Remember how swiftly the shuttle files and how a broken thread may mar the fabric. Remember that without a good pattern, all weaving is to no purpose; take much thought, therefore, as to the pattern of a good life and be greatly instructed by that life which is the exemplar for us all. Galus Glenn Atkins. Love, Faith, Obedience Love, faith, and obedience are sides of the same prism.—McDonald. SUNDAY, MARCH 23, 1930 Text Matt. 10:17-22; Luke 14:16-20 Subject: "What Barriers Keep People Away From Church?" Only sin can keep a soul from Christ. It may, however, assert itself through instruments which are not within themselves, sin. For example: I have bought property, I have purchased oxen, I have married a wife. Now it is evident that to own property, is not within itself sinful, or to possess oxen is a Christian privilege and Solomon says, "He that findeth a wife, findeth a good thing." It is not, therefore what we own, but ra. her what owns us. Our attitude towards God and life, is the determining factor. To have possessions and domestic ties should be an asset to Christian character. Who ever hinders our duty to God is our master. THOUGHTS There is no reason for not coming to Christ, there may be excuses. Only the first place in our affections is fit for Christ. Wealth and family are means with which we can do for God our best work. JUNIOR LESSON MARCH 23, 1930 TEXT: Matt. 10:32; 28:18-20. We should belong to the church to support the only institution God has to save the world. We should belong to the church because its only law is love. We should belong to the church if we are saved because the only place for the saved, is in the church. Ottawa Gleanings. Bethany Chapel S.
