NEGRO MOTHERS COMMENDED FOR REFUSING JIM CROW JOURNEY New Pork, June 6. - Commendation of the fifty-five Negro Gold Star Mothers who told President Hoover they would stay in Ameroica than go to their sons' graves on Pre ch battle fields in a segregated "pilgrimage," has been sent to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by a colored man who served with the 349th Field Artillery of the United States Army. Lieutenant Walter R. St. Clair, of Ashville, N. C. writes that the news of the colored mothers' refusal to go on the Jim Crow voyage to France filled him with pride and with joy. His letter to the N. A. A. C. P., continues: "All honor to these splendid upstanding women. To have accepted the opportunity to make the pilgrimage under segregation would have shown the Negro race in America totally devoid of self respect and opened the way for other insults and hurriations. "Of all the small, silly, unfair and un-American aces done against American Negroes under vicious race prejudice, the proposal of the War Department and evidently with the approval of President Hoover, to reperate the mothers because of color is the worst. Refusing to go under those revolting conditions teaches white America a lesson that is bound to penetrate even the thick skin of the most ardent race hater.

WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, June 13, 1930 TO THE HERO! (Doorman at the Miller Theatre who some time ago, stopped two land is, who were in process of robbing the Theatre—Young was without weapons.) BY JAMES E. ANDREWS (The Thirteen Year Old Poet) Twas a cool yet balmy night, and a land t filled with red wine and beer; Tho't before he should see the mornin' light. And he stерped out wholly without tear; He stерped in a store and I got a flask ontel I g whiskey mixed with beer: 'Te got his comrade, also a youth, o help him in his play; e was to get the money and go, whi'e he led them away. Then up he walked to the Miller Theatre. their "mon" As did the bandits of old. Now with the person he accosted Was a man by the name of Frank Young, Young, To be held up by so young a fellow, Made this man bite his tongue. A sudden jab in his stomach, Brought Frank Young round-about, Up went his hand and down went his man, In a true 'Wild West' knockout. Then he picked up the man and away he ran, And gave the landit to an officer near; then away he went with little time spent, To tell why he brought him here. 'Quick, to the door!" he shouted to him. Said the police man, "don't be so rash" "Nonsense" replied the fearless Frank, "He's getting away with all the cash." He gained the door and in he went, The bandit was starting to run; He ran right past heroic Frank Young But he stopped at the point of the officers' gun. The bandits decided, I right well guess. As the blows from their anvils run That crime didn't pay him any day Especially, to rob Frank Young. Mary MRS. VICTORY WRIGHT, Of Parsons, Worthy Mation of the Eastern Star Grand Chapter, who is attending the Annual Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, here this week. The club met at the home of Mrs. Kigg, on Indiana; at which time, many interesting plans were discussed. This club is doing much good in the community. Two were added to the club number. Nobody could help being interested in the club of "better home movement" if they would come out and hear the president, Mrs. Bartara Perry and others discuss the different flowers and their use.

Bristow says: 'I am for Reed for governor because I like a fellow who knows what he wants and is not afraid to say so. I think he has made a fine governor, he has a keen, analytical mind, and understands the detailed business of the state probably better than any man who has been governor before. In handling public utility matters he is an expert, just to the owners of public utilities, and always demanding that they be fair to their retorts. He knows the situation. Their expert cannot fool him. "Some people do not like Reed's personality. They thing he is arbitrary and abrupt in his declarations and sometimes offensive in his manneisms. It is a small consequence if he is. What the people want is a strong, capable, honest and efficient governor who will care for the interest of the state wisely. I believe Reed will do it." SOME HISTORY SOME HISTORY This little southwestern city, with a Negro population of 6,500, has a very keen interest in Education 1,311 persons are enrolled in formal school work. 27 in college and university; 105 in senior (10,11,12 grades) high school; 41 in junior, (9th grade high school; 1,138 in the grade or elementary.

STATE FEDERATION OF COLORED WOMEN'S CLUBS The 30th Annual Session of the Kansas State Federation of Colored Womens' Clubs convened here June 8-11, at Calvary Baptist Church. The session was opened on Sunday afternoon with women's mass meeting, Mrs. Katherine Helm, Pres., of City Federated Clubs, presiding, who introduced the state officers. Addresses were delivered by Mrs. J. H. Grant of Wichita and Mrs. Fredrica Perry of of Kansas City. At the close of this session a visit was made to the Air Port. In each day and evening session, was included a special program. Monday evening a reception was creditably held, directed by the women of the city, honoring the visitors in attendance.

Thus the Summer School has become in point of extent of plant, faculty, and course of study one of the strongest in the south. SPECIAL INSTITUTES The Library Institute for put the Library Institute for public Continue on fourth page --- Improved Uniform International SundaySchool Lesson (By REV P. R FITZWATER, DD, Member of Faculty, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) (@ 1988, Western Newspaper Union) Lesson for June 15 LESSON TEXT—Matthew 27 1-86 GOLDEN TEXT—Looking unto Jesus, the author and Finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despairing the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus on the Cross JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus on the Cross INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Suffering of the Cross YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Cahary. The grand climax of the six months' lessons is reached in this one. To miss the significance of the crucifixion of Christ will be to render valueless all the preceding lessons. It is not a matter of learning the lessons taught by a great teacher or imitating the examples of a great and good man, but of apprehending the atonement made by the world's Redemer. 1. The Place of Crucifixion. (vv. 33, 34). They led Him away to Golgotha, a hill north of Jerusalem, resembling a skull. He was crucified "without the gate" (Ieb. 17:12). At first He was compelled to bear His own cross, but when physical weakness made it impossible for Him to continue, they compelled Simon the Cyrenian to bear it for Him (v. 32). In order to strengthen Him for the ordeal before He was nailed to the cross, the soldiers offered Him a stimulant of vinegar mixed with gall. He refused the stimulant offered and consciously drank the cup of sin to its bitter dregs. II. Cambing for the Clothing of the Lord (vv. 35, 36) It was the custom for the soldiers who had charge of a crucifixion to receive the garments of the one crucified. We have here a fulfillment of Psalm 22:19. What sacrilege for them to gamble for His seamless robe under the very cross where He was dying! III. The Accusation (v. 37). It was customary to place over the victim on the cross his name and indicate his crime. This superscription was placed over Jesus by Pilate to vex the Jews. He was their King in absolute truth. They had long looked for Him and now, when He had come, this is the kind of treatment they gave Him. IV. Two Malefactors Crucified With Him (v. 38). We are not told who they were, perhaps they belonged to the band of Darabhas. This was another fulfillment of Scripture (Isa. 53:12). In these three crosses we have set forth a spiritual history of the whole world. V. The Dying Savior Reviled (v. 20:44). This reviling was engaged in by the passerby, the chief priests, the scribes, elders, and the malefactors who were crucified with Him. 1. "He saved others, Himself He cannot save" (v. 42). This jest was meant to show the absurdity of Jesus' claims, but it demonstrated them and showed the reason for His suffering. He could not save Himself and others, so He chose to give Himself to save others. 2. "If he be the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross" (v. 42). His refusal to abandon the cross established Him rightful claims. The devil offered Him the kingdoms of the world if He would escape the cross (Matt. 4:810). Through His death He came into His place of king ship over all who bow to Him. 3. "He trusted in God. Let him deliver him now" (v. 43). His obedience unto death was the sacrifice which met God's full approval. VI. The Death of Christ (vv. 15-50). Who is sufficient to comment upon this tragedy! Let us contemplate it in adoration and wonder. So shocking was this crime that nature threw around the Son of tied a shroud that the godless company could not gaze upon him. Darkness was upon the land at noonly. Upon the termination of the darkness, He cried with a cloud voice, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me!" He became sin for the world and the world's sin hid God's face from Him. God forsook Him, turned from Him who had taken the sinner's place. God was dealing with sin on the innocent substitute. No one can understand that but God, but we can believe. When the price of sin was paid, He cried out with a loud voice, showing that He still had vitality; that His, death was not from exhaustion, but by His sovereign will. He yielded up the ghost and sent away His spirit. Kindness Full half our holiness is shown in simple, everyday relations with our fellow men; and nine times out of ten the heat immediate expression for our love of God and gratitude to Christ is found in some small kindness to our neighbor.—Isaac Edwards. God Can Be Trusted The God who ordained the beginning can safely be trusted with the end, as with all that lies between.—Christian Evangelist. BY REV. J. W. HAYES. 615 Wabash Avenue HOW GREAT LEADERS SERVE THEIR GENERATION. Acts 20:17-35; Eph. 3:4-19 Great leaders are men of courage, character, faith, knowledge, endurance, and patience. They are men of vision and conviction. They have a purpose and will. Such leaders serve their generation for the sake of humanity, wisely investing himself for the good of the group. While he thinks and serves for the group, he, at the same time tries to bring the group where it can serve and think for itself. Leaders are born and made. If a man is a born leader, when he has discovered it, he should not try to be a layman, but if he is a born layman he should not try to be a leader. THOUGHTS A true leader stays ahead of the crowd and set with the crowd. Sunday School at 9:30 Supt. Mr. Ragsdale. Epworth League at 6:30, Pres. Mr. Cummings.

Osage City Learnings May 25th was a big day for the U. B. F. and S. M. Ts., the majority of the people came from Eskridge. The annual sermon was conducted by Rev. W. J. McDowell on account of absence of the Worthy Grand Master Subject: "The Six main parts of the Body" Namely: hands, feet, eyes, lips, ears and tongue.

Everybody enjoyed the sermon and had a fine time while in Osage; they are welcome to come again and visit Wimbley Chapel Baptist Church, here. A party was given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. D. J.

Since that time, with the faithful few workers, the rostrum has been enlarged and new runners put in the aisles, carpeted the rostrum, put in Sunday School library, big gas range in kitchen, set of knives, forks, spoons and dishes, built a nice slroom modern pastor's home and a new garage. All this is clear of debt including a large pulpit Bible, except the home, with about a thousand dollars balance on it. More than a hundred members have been added to the church. He lived and labored among us as a Christian gentleman and a God-sent pastor. On his leaving us to take up his work in Long Beach, the City Ministerial Alliance of which he was president, with the various congregations, gave to pastor and Mrs. Addison, a big banquet, honoring their faithful service; at which time, they received many valuable presents of many kinds. A very appropriate program was rendered with Dr. B. J. Gamble acting Master of Ceremonies. Pastor Adjison goes from us leaving many sad hearts, who are sorry to see them go, yet glad to know that they are reedled in a larger field and can do greater service. He was not forced to leave us and might have stayed, but he resigned of his own accord. We pray Cod's blessings upon them as they go into their new field of labor. T. TAYLOR, Reporter.

Re- The Negro Star-for the Good of the People sponsive reading Psalm 30; prayer by Bro. Arnold. Sermon by pastor, Text 1 Peter 5:2, subject: "The Christian Florist." The message was enjoyed immensely; he brought out the thought that a florist specialized in raising and caring for flower plants, that they might produce beautiful attractive, and useful flowers, blossoms and roses. That the youth is as a flower plant, soon to blossom as the rose, and the Christian is as a florist to care for the youth, by training, so they will develop a character that is beautiful; a personality that is attractive and a mind that is useful. This fact stressed the necessity of Christian education. The pastor gave way at the evening service and Mrs. R. Ray put on a Children's Day Play, "God is Good." There were more than 35 children present. Mrs. Ray and those children certainly brought a crowd. The play was wonderful, interesting, educational and inspiring.

Livingston. The wonderful way God is leading keeping and helps me, I believe Dr. Livingston. During the winter, I visited the brothren in their Ministers' Conferences in Pittsburgh, Phil adel phia Newark, N. J.; Cleaveland and Detroit. The Golden Jubilee has been the burden of my song at all these meetings. By A. D. 300 there had been 3000 Baptist slain, but those who were left never broke down but pushed on till their, doctrine of a new birth soul liberty is known and believed the world over. "The uttermost part of the earth is promised to Jesus by God our Father." Copy for a Negro Baptist History is now ready for the printer. This will be the first and only Standard History ordered by the National Convention. I have given four years to its pre aration and it will help someone make a better look. The introduction is by Dr. W. F. Graham. It will be issued from our own Sunday School Publishing Board. Pators and people are responding to the Jubilee appeal everywhere. The exhibits are being gathered and everything points to a great meeting Pennsylvania hopes to turn over to President Williams at the Golden Jubilee a 100 per cent 100 dollars and get a Baptist center for the state as we out of the drive. The pews used by the founders of our National Baptist Convention in Montgomery, will be on exhibition in Chicago at our Golden Jubiles. We have just learned that Rev. A. Rivers who baptized President Williams was one of the founders of ofous National Baptist Convention, and he hopes to be in Chicago. So far as we can learn, he with Dr.T.Jordan and Mrs Petiford are the only three living deligates of record who were there. Mrs. C. M. Wells of Alabama was there but not a deligate. The assassination of Abram Lincoln was an unfelt blow to this nation. For a few rours after the rews reached all the great centers the sitra-tion was Indescribable It was in that trying hour that James A. Gar-Garfelt shouted to the excited crowd "God still lives in the heavens and the Government lives in Wash-ington." Negro Baptist in the loss of our author, because of the way he was taken, feel it too deeply for words to express themselves, but the cause of God, which includes our Golden Jubilee goes forward. So many good men dended to lead us where we and by his help we will push on with our task—the cause is the Lord's sand must go or. Yours in his service, L. G. Jordan, See'y Emeritus-Histor.
