Favrot, field agent, General Education Board of New York, in which he gave the results of a comparative study of the maximum and minimum salary paid Negro and white teachers in the various Southern states showing that the Neoero teachers of Maryland are paid twice as much as those of Georgia. Dr. Monroe N Work director Records and Research Department Tuckahoe Ala. contracted this discrepancy between white and colored schools of the present time with that of fifty years ago stating that the difference was not been so great formerly as now that fifty years ago Negro teachers required a higher salary in South Carolina than white teachers, while in West Virginia, Negro men teachers were paid more than white men, and Negro women received less than white women teachers "Of all the states maintaining generals schools," said Dr. Work, "the District of Columbia and the state of West Virginia have facilities for white and colored children that A GREAT MAN HAS FALLEN Thursday, July 31, 1930, Bro. H. I. Mohroe fell asleep to be with Jesus. He was born Murfreesburo, Tenn., 60 years ago. He had held a position as deputy clerk, in an office at the court house for 30 years He was so loved by the court house employees, until the Shawner County Court house closed, last Monday to attend the funeral at Shiloh Baptist Church.

Townsend, with all the odds against him, on July 8th, met the payment due on the Second Mortgage, and where it has been costing $10,000 per month to run the Publishing House, has cut it down to $6,000 per month. Two years ago when the Baptist Jubilee CELEBRATION took shape it was hoped Negro Baptists everywhere would see the folly of fraternizing with all other religious bodies the world, the flesh and the devil, and having no dealings with each other. It was hoped Baptist organizations, state and national would gladly join in this big get-together effort. Letters, telegrams and committees were sent, inviting all Baptists to take part. How well we have succeeded will soon be seen. Fifty years hence, the Baptists of that day will wonder what manner of people we could have been, 1950, to speak kindly to every one but Baptists who differed from us. If we are to hold the respect of good people we must forgive and forget wrongs, real and imaginary, and as Baptists, work together. A half million Baptists will be in Chicago, leaders or no leaders. WTN Just two days ago a good brother asked: Dr. Jordan, how is it, holding the views you do about the National Baptist Convention, that you are thought by some to be against the administration I explained, and then asked, "administration?" Who is he and what do you mean? Then I recalled that word, "administration" came into the National Baptist Convention as a joke by the late Dr. Barber some years ago. After my brother left, I turned to the Southern and Northern Baptist journals to see what it meant in Baptist parlance, but I found it not. This government is run by parties who uphold or attack the administration of the other party, but with Baptists, we are a brotherhood set apart by Jehovah, and not that unbarticulous thing "administration." Each Of Us Can Truly Say "I did not know Christ face to face When he was here with men; But I have known his matchless grace For I was born again. I never felt that hand on mine That made a lover whole: That healed my sinch hurt soul. You can't think of "administration" and 'anti-administration' parties without looking for the floor leader the "administration whip" and the rascality, hate, deceit underhandedness, informing detection and all that go with, partisan politics. And you must agree, it has no place in a brotherhood made up of saved men. Can we wander when it is said our ranks are honey-combed with decent, distrust and all else but brotherly love when we have purposely or otherwise organized ourselves into administration and anti-administration parties, in a Baptist Convention. Fifty and eight years I have been among my brothers as one that served at home and abroad, but I have never seen it on this wise before. The word "administration," like the word "split," had better be forgotten by Negro Baptists. Our brotherhood will not stand the strain of political intrigue and other lowdown methods known to that realm. Ours is a brotherhood and the few little jobs which can be filled by any ordinary pastor is no worth our unity. Being the oldest in point of service in our National Pastor Convention and still active in the public service, I feel perfectly competent to again call "To your knees, Ove Baptists," God waits to help us if invited, but for any of us to go to Chicago for or against that new unbaustistic some thing—"administration"—will in the nature of thinner array my brethren in two warring canna and, if persistent in, will I fear, do for us what has been predicted. Of course, if, like the democrats and republicans, our pastors go at each other one side will win, but what will the winners have but the joy of the football victors. And on the atheist and sore hearts felt because of unorthodox fan tattoos and unkind words—when no principle was involved. Our president is our brother trusted and beloved by his hetheren, and not the "immediatation" You brother. I am with the president, the Convention and the Judicee, but not that other thing which is driving a wedge in the Negro Baptista" organized work. WRITERS SCORE SEGREGATION OF GOLD STAR MOTHERS WRITERS SCORE SEGREGATION OF GOLD STAR MOTHERS NEW YORK, July 25 - Protest against the sending of colored Gold Star Mothers to France in a regregat, ed group, on a combined freight and passenger boat, has not elicited their departure on July 11. Miss Walter Ferguson, well known columnist whose articles appear in the twenty-six newspapers of the Scriffs Howard chain, has this to say of the discrimination, as a white person: "Just why it was thought necessary to discriminate against the Negro gold star mothers in the matter of cheaper passage, slower boats and less comfortable housing while in New York City, it is indeed difficult to understand. Of the 450 Negro women who were to have visited the graves of their sons in France, all but a few cancelled their reservations when they found they were to be Jim Crowed until they reached foreign shots. It is unlikly that the French, who are a polite and thoughtful people, would have set up such caste lines in the matter of receiving them. Prevailess of how dees one's prejudice may be on the race question, here is an instance. It would seem when color should have been entirely forgotten. The black man who fights and does for America merits the same high praise, the same monument and the hero worship that is given to his white brother. What travesty upon democracy is this! These black boys are entrained and told they must help save democracy. Today they sleep forever, far from their beloved levees, their Harlem and their cotton fields. Few of them understood what the conflict was about. They were taken when the draft came, and, puzzled and bewildered, they donned the khaki and put out upon their last adventure. Eleven years later, when the great fight for God and light has been won, their country puts out the same old plaudits. The same politicians about the same old oratory. The same old militarism reigns. And their dark-faced mothers refuse this trip which they have *atticipated for long, because, if you please, they find they are not quite good enough for the best. "From some remote black man's heaven do the ghosts of their sons look and smile with infinite wisdom as they watch this funny face. And may not the white man's God dunn a tear as He observes the gestulations of His Nordic child who struts for a few days dressed in his punny superiority " In the New York World of Ju'y 21 Lotemo D. Brothers of New York a former soldier, expressed the following episode: "When I was drafted into the service in 1917 I sailed for France on the S. S. President Grant and returned on the S. S. South Bend in 1919. At that time I noted I parly that the Government transported both white and colore I troops together and alike. Since that time however, it seems that this same Government somewhere and somehow lost its power to do things on a big scale, and especially to enforce its Constitution, inasmuch as it is frankly admitting, through the retary Hurley, its inability to compel ships chartered and operated under the protection of this same Constitution to its bidding. "If we reject this excuse as unreasonable, then we are forced to the our lion lion that the attent to our Cold Star Mothers was international and that Se et it is only the tool of enquiry at full government." SOUTHWESTERN HOLDS MEETING. 1. GREAT BEND, KANS.

D., Member of Faculty, Monday Bible Institute of Chicago) (© 1994), Western Newspaper Union Leston for August 10 HANNAH, A GODLY MOTHER LESSON TEXT—1 Samuel 1 9-18. 24. 28. 219 GOLDEN TEXT—Sly son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother PRIMARY TOPIC—Hannah's Prayer Answered JUNIOR TOPIC—Hannah's Prayer Answered INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—How Can We Honor Our Parents? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Value of a Godly Home. Likanah had two wives in violation of Gods law. Gods primal thought for man was one wife. Therefore, for Adam he made live. Likanah's sure trial grew out of jealousy which naturally springs up between two women, wives of one man. The violation of this law of God concerning marriage has always been attended with trouble. 11. Hannah's Prayer (1:9 18). She had the good sense to take her troubles to the Lord. This believers should do, even though the troubles result from sin. 1. Her bitterness of soul (v. 10). Though Ilkanah loved her and sought to lighten her burden, he was unable to bring to her the needed solace. 2. Her sow (v. 11). Hannah prayed, asking God for a son. The name Samuel means "asked of God." In connection with her asking this gift from God, she vowed to give the child back to God. Much can be expected of children born into the world under such circumstances. 3. Hannah misjudged by Ell the priest (vv. 12 16). The priest observing the motion of her lips and not hearing the sound of her voice concluded that she was in toxicated and demanded that she put away wine. She defended herself against this inference. 4. Blessed by Ell (vv. 17, 18). Following her explanation he pronounced a blessing upon her, joining in the prayer that God would grant her petition. III. Hannah Gives Samuel to the Lord (vv. 24-28). For a time she cared for Samuel in the home. Always the best nurse for a child is its mother. According to her vow, at an early age she took Samuel to the sanctuary and gave him over to the charge of Eli, the priest, to minister therein. We thus see in his tender years Samuel's ministering before the Lord. IV. Samuel's Ministry (ch. 3). 1. His call (vv. 1-10). (1) The occasion. From his birth Samuel was dedicated to the service of the Lord While going about his regular duties the Lord spake unto him. In Samuel we have a striking pattern of child religion. In the Scriptures we have set forth two types of experience: First, the one who experiences God's saving grace after having lived in sin; second, the one brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord from infancy. (2) His obedience. When the divine voice was discerned Samuel rendered immediate obedience. He expressed his willingness before he knew what was required. He did not inquire what was wanted and then let his obedience depend upon the agreeableness of the command. 2. Samuel's prophetic message (vv. 21-18). The time has now come for him to pass from the authority of Ell to that of the Lord. The first message entrusted to him was a most terrible one. He hesitated to tell it to Ell, but being pressed, he manifested true courage. It must have been a bitter experience to Ell to see Samuel recognized and himself passed by. This fearful visitation of judgment upon Ell's house was due to the sins of his sons. Ell was held responsible for not restraining them. He seems to have been a good man but bax in the discipline of his children. Parental laxity is most cruel. To tolerate evil when one has the power to restrain it is to become party to it. V. Samuel Established in the Prophetic Office (3:19:21). "And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. And all Israel from Dan even to Boersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet to the Lord" Little did Hannah know that the boy who had been given in answer to her prayer would one day become the spiritual head of the nation. Truly, he that honors God shall be honored by God Character Most Important The great equipment of the soul winner is character. It is a false notion that we must meet the world on its own level—drink to win the drinker, smoke to win the smoker, and play the world's games in order to win it to Christ.-Richard Hobbs An Offering Mirth is the sweet wine of human life. It should be offered sparkling with seatful life unto God.—Henry Ward Beecher. B.Y.P.U.LESSON HOW TO BE TRULY POPULAR (PHI 4:6.8; JAT, Peter 3:11) True popularity comes through communion with God; pure thinking; oneness of purpose; true love and brotherly sympathy. Doing good for evil speaking the truth in love, shunning evil; doing good and following after peace. Te man of much praise, high thinking, noble purposes, worthy acts, kind speaking and a liver of peace, will eventually become popular in spite of the fact that is the least of his thought. He is not after popular applause, he is after the very heart of God "Thought" Character will win for herself a name. One need not cater to the gallery to be truly popular. High thinking is the cure for low living. Be as true as you think the best of men should be otherwise you me untrue to yourself. St. Matthew C. M. E. Ch REV. G. M HAWKINS PASTOR J. L.
