great a field for employment Negro
Business could be if it were Letter
organized and conducted. Much is
said respecting the failuce df colored
people to support their own business-
es, but much of this fature Is due to
the lack of method and xystém pre-
Nailing in Negro business which when
compared with enterpiises operated
by others falls far short of moden
methods. Were these inequalities
corrected, with the resultant increase
in volume that would follow, more
positions in Negro business would be

AS IT SEEMS TO ME
These are days in which men and
‘women, boys and girls aie looking fo1
Jobs. There is a constant steam of
tnemployed passing to and fro in pur
suit of something to do. This Is in
the realm of industry. In the realm
ot the spiritual and socal life the
youth, both female and male, have
tremendous jobs, They have the Job
of learning several arts, They have
to learn the art of good manners, and
‘courtesy, very often in communitics
where couitesy and good manners do
not exist, They have the job of learn
Ing reverence, where reverence does
rot exist, They have the job of learn
ing to be truthful where truth does
not exist, They have the fob of learn
ing to be honext where honesty docs
not exist. They have the job of learn
ing respect for personality where re-
pect does not exist. They have the
Job of leérning to put a premlum on
worthwhile accomplishments where
such does not exist,
Then there fs another tremendous
Job youths have. They have to be
their own interpreter ot iso's exper-
fence, some of which are very per-
plexing. There are numerous things
in the community to which the youth
gives attention, That fact presents.
to parents three tasks: First, they
must find out to what things ale my
boys or girls giving attention. See
ondly, they must find out if the youth
is getting satisfaction out of these
th:ngs. Then they must help them to
interpret these things to the better-
ment of the youth. Fortunately the
mothers and fathers have agencies
helping the youth to Interpret those
experiences. These agencies are:
Chuich, School, Y. W. C. A. and and
¥. M,C. A, But parents must not
make the mistake of leaving all to
the agencies. The home is the start-
ing point and the agencies are simply
to supplement and augment the home
Let us help the youth put his job
over,

A LYNCHING

trit. The Negro was already in the
hands of the law ard secwely in fail.
There ts no justification for lynch
law until organized law has been de-
stroyed, its forces disarmed, and the
Processes of anarchy and savagery
only remain for the use of (he people.
That condition does not exist in Geor-
gia and to have allowed a drivelling
drink-demented Nevro to be lynched
for a ~ossibly unconscious 'mpudete
would have been pn enormo'*'y pert

By the prompt and conservative
action of the rood men of Bainbridge |
that crime was prevented on Morday

other dark and bloody chapter in a
record of law observance that has
been brightening for many years, |
Yet there remains p need for the
friends of law and order and fuctire
to keep their educative services at

their fellow men that “obedience to
law is duty to God”,
Every good citizenowes it to his

THESIN OF
. JEALOUSY
Ther are many ways by which Sa-
tan tries to lead God's people to fol-
low the path of sin, but just let the
evil tll us with jealousy or envy
and we will soon find ourselves pos-
fesned with @ satanic spirit that will
make us anything but Christ-like in
our walk and conversation, Indeed,
some of the worst crimes recorded tn
the word of God, are those which
‘ore prompted by jealousy.
What was it that led Cain to murder
Abel? He waa jealousy of his’ broth-
er; because God was more pleased
with his sacrefice than he pas his
own,
Tt was that same spirit of Jeaousy
that caused Saul to plot againat Dav.
fd to slay him. We might go thra
the Scripture and point out one crime
after another and we would find they
werr prompted by jealousy,
Do not oftimes we find this same
spirit manifesting Itself-insthe hves
of Gods people to day, We fear
that nat only the Isity becomes vie-
tims of it, but that it also finds its
way into the ranks of the clergy. Let
@ pastor show a great intellectual at-
talnments in this or that sphere or
let him be seen climbing the ladder
of success in the accomplishment of
great things for the kingdom and
very often little stones of unjust cri-
ticisms are hurled at him which were
Rathered from the brook, whoso wa-
ters were poisoned with Jealousy.
Many a pastor, because he happens to
have remarkable success in his con
gregation Is often accused of this or
that plot practice, even though there
may be nothing to warrant such a
conclusion.
Are we sure that many of these
criticisms are not conteminated with
a spirit of jealousy and envy
jsut Dear Unurch member must you
not admit that you too have ofttimes
been infected with this spe apirit of
envy? What kind of a spirit that ant
mated your soul, when some other
rember of the church was given spe-
clal pratises for their loyalty or suc-
cess in this or that sphere of service?
erhaps you are a singer in the choir,
have you ever found yourself pos-
sessed with a jealous spirit, when
some other member of the chofr sang
beautifully—perhaps more beautiful-
y than you or when this or that per-
on pas given a solo which yuu would
ike to have sung? What about that
young man or young woman, who
seems to take better than you do arid
sho has more friends than you?
Again, I say, look, look well unto
your heart and see if there is‘no sign
of jealousy there, Yet we must all

REVIEW—THE GREATNESS OF THE GOD FEARING
GOLDEN TEXT—The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom, a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise and dureth forerer.
PRIMARY TOPIC—What Makes People Great.
JUNIOR TOPIC—What Makes People Great.
INTERMEDIATE AND SEVIOR TOPIC—What Makes Men and Women Great.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC-An Estimate of the Characters Studied During the Quarter.
Lesson for July 6.
When called to go out from his own country and kindred, Abraham believed God and obeyed his command. True faith is proved by unquestioned obedience.
Lesson for July 13.
Jacob, a crafty schemer, through discipline at God's hands, became Israel, a prince with God. Before he could enter the Promised Land a change must take place. Self-will must be broken before there can be confidence in God.
Lesson for July 20.
Moses, educated first at his mother's knee and then at Pharaoh's court, was forced to flee from Egypt because of a premature effort to deliver the enslaved people. Forty years of training in the wilderness was necessary before he was ready to hear God's call.
Lesson for July 27.
In the time of national emergency, there being no man to judge Israel, Deborah was called to take this place. God bestows his grace upon whomsoever he will, regardless of sex.
Lesson for August 3.
Ruth chose to cast her lot with God's people. This choice brought her not only salvation but earthly blessings. Ruth's relationship to Naomi shows the vital fellowship centered in the God of Israel. National prejudices, hatred, and strife disappear on the part of those who are united in Jesus Christ.
Leason for August 10.
Hannah asked God to give her a son, promising to dedicate him to God's service. God heard her prayer and she named her son Samuel, which means "asked of God." Samuel in his tender years was given to God, and he rendered a distinguished service for many years.
Leason for August 17.
Saul was a man of fine gifts and had a great opportunity, but made a dismal failure because his heart was not right toward God. He had more concern for his own honor and welfare than for the glory of God. God is more concerned with having his commands obeyed than he is with the offering of sacrifices.
Lesson for August 24.
Friendship between David and Jonathan has been immortalized. This friendship was unique in that it took place between two men of rival interests. Jonathan was the natural heir to the throne, but David was God's choice. Jonathan knew this and magnanimously waived his rights.
Lesson for August 31.
Amos, a humble herdsman, was called from his life as God's prophet to stand before the king. He was not a prophet by succession nor was he trained in the schools. God selects his servants from even the humblest walks of life.
Lesson for September 7.
Josiah, the young king, was loyal to God. Two wicked kings had preceded him, during whose reigns God's law was lost. God put it into his heart to inaugurate a reformation, and in the process of restoring the temple, the law was found. When it was read before him, the king rent his clothes, and proceeded to institute his reforms on the basis of God's word.
Lesson for September 14.
Jeremiah, having heard Gods call in his early years, genously carried on his ministry. He called upon individuals to face their responsibility before God, assuring them that they would not be judged on the basis of racial heritage. Every man shall give an account of himself to God. Lesson for September 21.
Jonah, a Jew, was called to preach repentance to a Gentile city. He sought to escape his responsibility by fleeing to Tarshish. God prepared a fish to swallow him. This was the means of his chastisement and return to his own land. After chastisement he was recommissioned. At his preaching the city repented, putting on their sackcloth and ashes. God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
All that I am I owe to Jesus Christ, revealed to me in his divine Book.—David Livingstone.

B.Y.P.U.LESSON
BY REV. J. W. HAYES.
613 Wabash Avenue
HOW WOULD YOU SPEND ONE MILLION DOLLARS ON MISSION Luke 10:25-37 If I had one million dollars to spend on Missions, I would spend fifty per cent on the Foreign Field and fifty percent on the Home Field. I would build schools in the Foreign Fields and supply them with the best available missionary teachers. In the schools I would have first the common school branches, then the trades, domestic science and agriculture.
I would have as many missionary doctors and nurses as possible. If able, I would bring over a number of the natives to be educated in our schools and return for foreign work. As to the Home Field, I would put a chair in mission in a number your schools, supplement the salary of the missionary pastors. Finally I would create a sinking fund for aged ministers. In the local church a fund for the poor. In the lesson the lawyer tempts Christ. The Master calls his attention to his profession and explains the how.
Jesus gave an example of brotherly love. He shows that it is not in word but in deeds of mercy. Love defines itself by what it does.
