He also stated that he labored until 10:30 p.m. in the church meeting to discuss the details of the budget, but because of the antagonistic spirit on the part of some of the disgruntled members he was unable to do so. Seeing the futility of his efforts, the time being thirty minutes past the closing hour, he adjourned the meeting orderly and proceeded to the regular church meeting was closed and the moderator had gone home, the opposers to the recommendations held another meeting, made another yearly budget, elected new officers, and adopted a new wage code.

Harrell and James Griffin and Mrs. Susan McClellan. The aggrieved member was be advised as to whether: 1. The after meeting was regular? 2. Was it legal or ecclesiastical? 3.

Prentices Anne Ave. and Chapel St. Services Every Sabbath at 11:30 m. and 7 p. m. Y. P. C. A. 4 M. A Cordial Welcome Extended To Everybody Unconnected Visitors Invited to Join JITNEURS NOT PLEASED WITH NEW ROUTE Business Is Not Good Men Say. Anxious To Try Permanent Line Proposed by City Manager Ashburner. STATEMENT BY BUSINESS AGENT The colored jitneys began to operate over their new temporary route Monday morning. The public being so accustomed to aboard jitneys on Church Street took quite some time to get used to the effect, many were seen to stand and wait on Church Street corners for several minutes then suddenly dart over to Chapel Street. Mr. W. A. Traynham, business agent for the Colored Jitney Association, speaking for the operators, when he told the public from the change, had the following to say: "There is no doubt that the new route is proving an inconvenience to the public as well as a hardship to the operators. The inconvenience to the public lies in the fact that from on Chapel Street to Princess Anne Ave, on Chapel Street of colored business activity and that it seems only fair that the jitneys should be permitted to enter the business section of the people they serve. "For the owners and operators the church produces a hardship because it is far more expensive to over rough streets such as comprise a large portion of the new route than to operate over paved thoroughfares. The jitney passenger travel at night is only a fraction of what it formerly was on account of the darkened streets. Face to face with the situation of unfavorable streets to traverse and greatly added expense with a falling off of passengers on account of such conditions it is a question of whether the operators can survive. It all depends upon the attitude of part of the public which jitneys serve." Mr. Traynham added that it would be almost a calamity to the sections of Huntersville and Lindenwood should the indifference of the travelling public make it imperative for the jitneys to go out of business. The drivers are doing their best to maintain service and it can only be maintained through the support of the public. Mr. Traynham attended a meeting of the City Council on Tuesday, April 25th, in the interest of securing prompt action on the proposal to pave the streets over the permanent route. Action on the matter was deferred, however, until the next Council meeting on April 26th added route over Princess Anne Ave. to Broad Creek Road and Park Ave. referred to the city manager for correction.

The country's great advantage is the lack of transportation facilities, docks, wharves, etc. There is only one post office in the whole country and the natives have little initiative or ambition for anything other than politics. It is one of the few countries where slavery still exists. PRESIDENT NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE DR. ROBERT R. MOTON Writing to James E.

Navy, retired, who was indicted recently for bigamy upon complaint of his second wife, had his case terminated in corporation court Tuesday when the jury, after hearing the facts in the case, returned a verdict of guilty, but recommended that his punishment be suspended, which was ordered by the court. Mr. Thorogood's first knowledge that he had violated the statutes as to bigamy can when he applied for a divorce from his second wife. It developed upon examination of the records by his attorney that on account of errors in the disposition of plaintiffs, he admitted that first Mrs. Thorogood, he had never been legally separated from her. This was not Mr. Thorogood's fault however, as he followed the advice of counsel in the matter. Learning these facts, the second wife, who he accused of violence, had him arrested for bigamy. His defense to the latter indictment was that he acted upon the advice of counsel, to which fact the lawyer in question testified. In addition a number of reputable citizens, including navy officers, testified to his conviction. Under the circumstances, the jury had no discretion except to bring in a verdict of guilty which it did, with recommendation that sentence be suspended. Mr. Thorogood left the court a wiser man in matters matrimonial. Mr. Thorogood left the outcome of the case. Winford P. Thorogood is a Norfolk citizen; an honorably retired Navy Chief Petty Officer, a brother of William H. Thorogood, who has been his personal advisor during the litigation. He was represented by attorneys Ivor A. Page and James M. Harrison. CROSS CASE TO HIGHER COURT DECLARE U. S.

The Sons of Norfolk have been granted an amended charter by the State Corporation Commission. By the provision of the new charter the organization may extend its activities beyond the boundaries of the State of Virginia and into any state where a sufficient number of men possessing the necessary qualifications (born in Norfolk) can be assembled. Th amended charter also gives the organization fraternal status. It is thought that by extending to their members fraternal privileges and benefits, and having the right to operate throughout the entire Union the organization will in a short time have local lodges scattered all over the country wherever Norfolk's Sons can be found. The organization has had a splendid growth since its incorporation and its entry into the fraternal world will add one more strong link in the chain of race fraternities. When the appeal was sent out for aid for the, Berkley sufferers, the Sons of Norfolk gave a hearty response with a donation of one hundred dollars. There is, if you stop to think about it, a connection between the lack of political convictions and the failure of criminal convictions—Pazmino on Pazmino.

Negetemted ke eae A This invitation "Normally New York is as well governed and orderly “na it is to be expected of a community of some seven mil- Sion, souls, made up of race groups from all the corners “of, the globe. We know more about what happens in New York than we do about what happens in any other “National ‘center of population, because it is the intellect- ‘ual and financial Hub of the Nation, through which the :news of the outside world reaches us, and because every- “thing ‘done in New York is done on large scale. It is ‘a city placed on a high hill, so to speak, and we-are all interested in what it thinks and says and does, and we all want to go to New York some day just as every body ‘wants to go to beautiful, wicked Paris some day; not to yemain, but just to “see for ourselves and not for another.” Right now, however, New York City is a good place not to visit. Thieves and murderers have got the upper- hand for the time being, and the courts and police and citizenry have joined forees to hold the banditry in check and ultimately wipe it out, Some 26,000 permits have been granted to private citizens to carry deadly weapons and training camps have been established where bank ‘officials, and clerks, and the like, may be instructed in the proper use of fire arms, if occasion requires use of them: ' We have plenty of criminals in Norfolk, but we are fortgnate in comparison with New York, for which we shopld be thankful. There is most prosperity and hap- always to be found where there is most decency ‘and order and proper consideration for the life and prop- ‘erty -and feelings of our neighbors, Lawlessness is a blight, wherever it may flourish. \ WHY WE NEED OUR OWN HOME NEWSPAPER We have developed our own ‘churches because .we could not get the consideration in the churches belonging to others which we required as self-respecting Christians. Our great church denominations were founded by for- word looking men and women of the race who had that as sufficient argument for creating and maintaining our churches. And we are the brondest, most catholic group ‘of Christians in the Nation. We do not bar any person from worshiping in our temples on account of “race, col- ‘er or previous condition of servitude,” If any want to worship with us they are free to do so, That is the true Christian spirit, and’ those who have it not are not Christians in the accepted meaning of the word. Upon the same principles that wo have built our own churches we are building our business institutions, We could not get the same accommodation and advantages in those enterprises controlled by other race groups ‘that wo required and upon the same conditions of justice and equity as others got them; nnd,'so, in self-defense, we began to build up our own; and we are building mag- nificently, as the future will discover, and which the race generations of the future will enjoy to the full. Wo build now and they will possess them and enlarge to meet the growing demands of time and place. It is the part of wisdom. Upon the same principles of self-respect and self- help we are building up a newspaper service of the very highest and best order. Every large city in the country thas an Afro-American newspaper that meets the local needs of the people, as a sufficient medium to chronicle our deaths and births, our social and civie doings and sayings, our church and society activities, and to adver- tise what we have to uell and what we want to buy. ‘They are. weekly and monthly publications now, but the time is not remote when we shall have daily newspapers of our own wherever we have a population sufficiently num- erous, intelligent, industrious and thrifty to support them ‘We know that. We have several large communities quite large enough to do that now, and will do it in short. ‘The NORFOLK JOURNAI. xD Gu1vE was needed for the Jocal purposes we have indicated, und hus been sustained ‘beeause it has met those needs. It has a splendid reading eonatituency, and it strives ulways to give those things most vital to its well being, pleasure and self-respect. ‘We.are froe to challenge comparison of the JOURNAL‘AND ‘Gowe with any of the best of the uplendid newspapers th race now haa, in its size and the fullness and completenes: of its service,—x newspaper for the social, civil and eco -momic betterment of its constituency, — SPIRITISM AND VOODOOISM : It is quite remarkable to what extent spiritism rown among white Christians of late years. ‘Tho spi ; is generally understood, cannot be reached ex hrough a medium.

PRESENTING THE BILL Apparently it came us a surprise to many persons in Europe that America should put in her bill for keep- ing an army. of occupation on the Rhine. It is hard to get it out of some persons’ heads that this country is not an inexhaustible source of wealth. We have been keeping an army on the Rhine mainly because our allies ‘thought we ought to do so. It hns been an expensive business, adding very seriously to our taxes at a time when business conditions make every tax more burden- some than it would ordinarily be. If we had withdrawn our army months ago, there would rave been a‘ howl in Britain and France, We have been reducing it never- theless. Now that we have presented our bill and it has not been paid, we do well to withdraw our army entirely. —New York Mail, .

Opponents of capital punish- ment would denounce it as an atrocity. ‘The average man and woman would flinch. it at first as a grewsome thought. Yot is a hanging a day worse thun a murder a day? Do we ery out against that grewsome toll? We average a killing a day. Why not a corresponding rate of pun- ishmont? Tf there were a hanging u day, there would soon be a drop in the murder rate. | Of course, murders in’ the first degree do not tun ug high as one a day. In 1919 the number repofted was 154. Homicides were 194. That is more than a killing ‘a day. But with the death penalty confined to murders of the first degree, we should need a hanging every two days, excluding Sundays, if punishment kept pace with the crime. ‘The yenr 1919, in which there were 164 murders, there were three hangings and only twenty-seven sen- tences to the penitentiary, ‘Ten murders committed sui- cide, so that leaves 114 unaccounted for. ‘A killing a day representa our crime product. Three hangings a yoar was the rate at which justice pursues. ‘No wonder tho killings go on and human life re- mains the cheapest of commodities—Chicago Tribune.

Mr. Greely has been at Old Umtali School as a member of the faculty and as evangelist in the outlying territory for the past thirty-three years and has witnessed the global teacher's progress of the mission work there. "The Training School at Old Umtali was founded in its more elementary departments as far back as 1000," said Mr. Greeley, "and was enlarged and higher courses put in. in 1917. In the early days the natives about us were in the rarest stages of heathenism, having had hardly any contact with civilization and possessed one of the lowest levels of earning a successful livelihood from the soil.

NORFOLK, VA. mission doctor many natives were healed of sickness and infection in a way that was marvelous to them. Gradually the prejudice against us as newcomers and the opposition of the witch doctors was overcome. A few of our black neighbors became Christians and we started in to educate them in better methods of living, and in how to make a better living out of the soil." The school at Old Umtali has become one of the most potent influences in the life of the black native of that vicinity for development of his latent powers of mind and management. The mission was started by the Rev. Dr. John H. Hartler of Africa obtained from the British Government an indefinite tenure of 13,000 acres of tract land with a dozen small brick buildings, which had once been the town of Umtali before it was moved to the railroad line. This area was too large to be farmed, and the men were turned back to the Government in exchange for farms of that size at Weya, Mutambara, and smaller plots elsewhere. In this way the foundation was laid for a vast system of agricultural schools and demonstration farms through which the natives were taught the skills of earning a decent living instead of their senty one from the rich soil. In the years that have passed literally hundreds and thousands of black men and women, young and mature, have come to these schools, learned to read and write their own books, learned to cook and all the household things that are so simple to the people of America and Europe but are great mysteries to uncivilized people however bright they might be. Many of these people learned fast. And everyone who learned new things wanted to go to school and learn his people. In this way simple learning of all kinds spread rapidly. "The graduates are Jonas Manjengwa, David Mandissoda, Obidiah Chimonyo, and James Murivo. These men are from four different tribes and are magnificent types of men in the past who have served in ship they command among their people. They are all in the service of the mission as teacher-pastors in important centers. The Government of Rhodesia gave them an examination and awarded them a certificate which allows them free passage anywhere in the world. The natives must carry when they travel, according to the colonial law. This means they have achieved citizenship in the white man's regime. Mandissoda has been made a Deacon in the Rhodesia Mission Conference and entrusted to a most difficult post by unanimous consent." SACRED CONCERT AT ST JAMES A. M. E. CHURCH, SO.

(By Rev. A. Spiller) —Durham, N. C.—The Rev. G. M. Long, the honored pastor of the Bank Street Baptist church of Norfolk, spent two weeks with the White Rock Baptist congregation of Durham, of which the Dr. Dr. J. E. Kirkland is pastor. This to my mind is one of the best organized churches in the South. I have never heard this church make any appeal to the outward for money for the Church. The most impressive part of the church service is taking collection. PETER B. The Pastor of this church is among the best preachers in this country. This church has had great preachers and laymen. Dr. A. Shepard and Dr. Brawley pastored White Rock. Dr. A. M. Moore and C. C. Spaulding are deacons of this church. I mention these men because they are more well known and reputed. After hearing Rev. Long for two weeks I wondered if Norfolk knew him as a preacher. He preached ten sermons to the people of Durham and he grew more and more powerful and eloquent each night. His sermons appeared well planned and delivered with force and power. He had more than one hundred converts. Last Friday night he preached his farewell sermon to a crowded house, Subject, "The Exultation of Christ." At the close of the sermon the pastor apologized more than fifty of the converts and the others will be baptized at another time. Rev. Long has a strong and clear voice and articulates his words so perfectly that he can be heard and understood at a rent distance especially as his auditors observe the St. Mark's Baptist church and the city of Norfolk should feel proud of this young man. With such men in our pulpits we old men are willing to go when the time comes. Rev. Long is a Gospel preacher. This cannot be said of Rev. Long, but many of them in our pulpits. Many of them are preaching to please the people and to give them what they want and not what they need. Rev. Long can come to Durham any time. The doors of our churches, the church of our church and if Virginia does not want him, North Carolina does. May he live long to preach the Gospel. THE REV. M. E. DAVIS MADE PRESIDING The Rev. M. E. Davis, returns from the Virginia Annual Conference, happy over the success that has come to him during the past two years at St. John's A. M. E. church, Norfolk, He rejoices more in the gift and power that God has permitted him to preach the New Testament Gospel. The financial report for this year were the largest ever made in the Virginia Conference. The summaries are as follows: For Connectional purposes, $17,507.07; For Local parish purposes, $13,439.24. The Grant total for all purposes being $17,300.91, this includes Dollar Money, $1,065.00; Drive Money, $1,040.00. He now goes, as Presiding Elder to the Portsmouth District. JOHN M. BROWN A. M. E. CHURCH The services at John M. Brown were well attended last Sabbath. Our pastor was in Roanoke attending the Conference. Rev. Williams of Portsmouth, preached both morning and evening. The Holy Spirit taught the children and we are delighted with the return of our pastor, Dr. T. W. Cotten, who left Wednesday morning, to attend the Baltimore Conference in Baltimore City. Dr. S. S. Morris and Dr. Barkesdale worshiped with us in Monday morning. Dr. Douglas McDuffie writes that he will be here on the 5th Sunday, April 30th. GRACE R. E. CHURCH We had very gracious services last Sunday. Both morning and evening the sermons were based upon general proofs of the "Risen Lord," St Luke 24:25. The Church School was nicely conducted. There were very interesting lessons. There were quite a number of visitors at the services. We always gave him a friend with us. All he gave us was the mall. Our can find a welcome. This Sunday, 11 o'clock a.m. and 7:30 p.m. Church school at 9:30 a.m. FIRST UNITED PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH The theme of Rev. D. F. White's sarmon was personal giving to the support of the church. As usual with Rev. White, he made his point clear to all and caused us to recognize our duty anow. The Y. P. C. U. service was highly interesting because it was "Howard Day" The subject, "Howard Day," was Difficult to thought very fitting for a Howard meeting, because that school nids Negroes to overcome their difficulties. The discussion of the lesson was very interesting because of the talks from the clippings. More and more are doing this now. The Howard program consisted of a solo by Miss Helena, a solo by Amy Singleton, "By An' By'", a talk by Amy Phillips, which was short and vital; an instrumental solo by Dr. A. N. Land, "21, who played one of his own compositions; and then the singing of the Howard school song by the graduates and students. On Sabbath, April 16th, Messas, Jonas and Jerry Armand brought their quartette and twig (two songs) to the request; Mr. V. R. Skeeter sang a selection smoothly and expressively to our enjoyment; Mr. P. McN Thompson, played with feeling a love song. You're always welcome at "the church on the corner" to all services. Come out. ST. JOHN'S A. M. E. CHURCH The services last Sunday were helpful and inspiring. At 11 a.m. Rev. A. J. Nixon, a supernuate who has served 42 years in the traveling work, delivered a most powerful and soul stirring sermon from John 5:39 which will not soon be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to hear him. At 7:30 p.m. local preacher, Rev Leroy Grandy delivered an hour-long sermon on the text Genesis 4:5-4. The Sunday school attendance was large. The League meetings were intensely interesting. The Ever Ready Circle gave "A Spring Trip Around the World" last Tuesday night, which was very pleasing and profitable. On next Sunday services will be held at the usual hours and the pulpit will be filled supplied. Strangers and visitors will receive a hearty welcome. SECOND CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH Services in our church were very good last Sunday. The prayer meeting opened with a goodly number. At 9:30, the Supt. Bro. G. C. Madison, called the Sunday school to order, after the opening exercise the school was classified and rehearsed the lesson. Subject, Uzzih's Pride and Punishment, Prov. 16:18-21. Baptist worship found in 2 Chron. 16:1-21. At 11:03 the pastor preached a powerful sermon from Romans, 14:17. His message will long be remembered as it was food for the souls in every sermon he brings out the truths that gives the new inspiration to press on to the mark of the higher calling. At 3:30 our pastor and congregation worshiped with the Mt. Zion Baptist church, of which Rev. Price is pastor. Rev Bowers preached from the Inner and Outer Life." He was his best and every one present felt glad that they had come to hear him. At 5:30 the Senior B. Y. P. U. held their exercise, after the discussion of the topic a very interesting program was rendered. At 7:15 the pastor lead a large crowd of people through several streets on a march singing as they went, he will continue this for three weeks or more order to reach those who do not come to church of the Lord of God. At 8 p.m. the pastor preached from the subject, "God's Plan and Purpose," 2 Kins, 11:1. He pictured to us the great consequence of sin if we allowed it to rule us. Rev. G. R. Malloy, of the Mt. Pleasant Baptist church, Titus Town, preached for us all of last week, and the services were spiritual. The meeting will continue next week. Collection, $223.50. E. D. Bailley, FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH BOLLING.BROOK Strangers are always welcomed in our midst. The pastor took for his subject Sunday, "The Faces of Strangers, means the presence of Angels, and we feel glad and welcome you in our midst as it shows that God has stamped His approval upon Our Work." Many new members were added to the church last Sunday. The P. P. was well attended and the topic was well discussed led by Rev. Brown and Deacon Williamson. Rev. S. L. Brown has returned from a trip to Gloucester County. The pubit was filled at the evening hour by Rev. E. L. Ford, who brought helpful messages. REV. MORRIS TO SPEAK Rev S. S. Morris, General Secretary of A. C. E. Society of A. M. E. Church, will speak at St Luke C. M. E. church Sunday, May 7, 1922, at 4:00 o'clock. Rev. Morris has just completed a trip of the country in interest of this work, and a lively meeting filled with thought and help to those who are interested in the work is expected. Kalvet Shaw, President of the Epworth League of St Luke C. M. E. church promises a very interesting program along with the address of Rev. Morris. A Successful Revival. The revival recently closed in Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion church, conducted by the Rev. H. R. Hawkins, of Elizabeth City, N. C., assisted by Madam Evageline Hicks, of Alexandra,vivals ever held in the Old Metropolitan church. These services went on for two weeks and they will long be remembered by the membership and the community at large. Rev Hawkins delivered some very forceful and pointed Gospel messages that were appreciated by the congregation who packed the church to its capacity tightly. Madam Hicks, the sweet Gospel singer, deserves special mention for her excellent services rendered during the war. Her dexterful singing of the Gospel many were touched and persuaded to turn their backs on the world with its follies and fascinations and turn their award Heaven and Heavenly things. Rev. Hawkins and Madam Hickes both put forth very arduous efforts for the salvation of souls and they were the first to do so. The 'church was as whole' was, greatly revived and there were 58 conversions and 40 accessions to the church during the two weeks of the revival services. We hope that Rev. Hawkins and Madam Hickes preach and sing the Blessed Gospel of our Lord and Master. METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION CHURCH Our Sunday school was interesting and is making much progress along all lines. The Young Men's Bible class was the banner class. We reached a wonderful sermon from the 16th chapter, 16th verse of Corinthians. We gained much inspiration from him. At 7:30 p.m. the pastor preached a soul stirring sermon from the Eph. 5:14. Many souls feasted upon this sermon and returned home rejoicing. We hope you and your friend will be present on next Sunday to the Sunday school and morning services. The pastor will preach a special sermon. Will you be present? Visitors are always (By REV. P. B.

The Service to Which God Calls Us. 1. Isaiah's Vision of Glory (vv. 1-4). So definite was this vision that the prophet remembered the very time of its occurrence. It meant so much to him that he could ever look back to it as a day when his ministry took on a new meaning. 1. He Saw the Lord on His Throne (v. 1). Though the death of Uziah left Judah's throne empty it was made clear to the prophet that the throne God was occupied. The Lord was high above the oathow that He is above all kingsmen. This peculiar preparation of Isaiah for his work. The one who has really seen God can never be the same again; life has a fuller meaning ever afterward. 2. He Saw the Seraphims Above (vv. 2, 3). Just who these beings are we do not know. The word signifies "fiery," "burning." They were glorious beings whose business was to wait upon the Lord, to go on errands for Him. They had six wings—two for flight; two to cover their face, showing reverence; and two to cover their feet, showing humility. These three pairs show that reverence and humility are of equal value before God, with activity. The song of the seraphims shows that they saw holiness as God's supreme attribute. The thrice holy" perhaps refers to the Trinity. The first choir sang, "Holy, holy, holy" and the second choir responded to this by saying, "The whole earth is full of His glory." 3. The Manifestation of Majesty (v. 4). "The posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke." The smoke, no doubt, signified God's wrath against man's sinfulness (see Paulus 18:3; 74:1). 11. Isaiah's Conviction of Sin (v. 0). The vision of God brought the prophet to see himself. It is only in the light of God's holiness that we see our unholiness. When Peter got a glimpse of who Christ was he begged Him to depart from him, saying "Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O lord" (Luke 5:3). The prophet not only realized that he was a sinner, but that the nation was a nation of sinners. What the world needs today above all things is a vision of God. 11. Isaiah's Cleansing From Sin (vv. 0, 7). The talking of the coal from the altar shows that it was connected with sacrifice. That which consumed the blood was holy; that neer gets a vision of God in Christ, the Holy Spirit applies the merits of Christ's shed blood and cleanses from all sin. 1V. Isaiah's Call (v. 8). Immediately following his cleansing came the call. Men must be cleansed from sin before they shall be called to God's service. Though God has many angelic beings who willingly go on errands for him, yet He has errands upon which only cleansed human beings can go. The only ones who can really declare the gospel of God's grace are those who have experienced its saving power. God is asking this same question of men and women. Isaiah readily responded to his call by dedicating himself to the task. He said, "Here am I; send me." V. Isaiah's Commission (v. 9-13). 1. The Sending (v. 9, 10). He had a most discouraging task before him. He is assured that the people will hear his message, but be unmoved by it. They will even increase in blindness and deafness to the divine warnings—they will neither be converted nor healed. Such a hopeless task would only be undertaken by one who had had a vision of God. 2. The Encouragement (vv. 11:13). Facing this discouraging outlook the prophet raised the inquiry, "Lord, how long?" The Lord in His reply assured him that it would not last forever. The land would be decolate, the cities without inhabitants, and the houses without inhabitants. The kingdom takes its vital substance even long after it has been cut down, so from Judah shall a rallown be saved. The holy seed is the substance which shall constitute the basis of the kingdom which shall come when David's son shall be king. Must Look to Jesus If I want to repent, if I want to change my mind and get more and more determined to be good, I must look at Jesus Christ. I must notice how perfectly faultless, perfectly loving, perfectly patient, perfectly ready to spend. Himself in the service of others. He is—The Bishop of London. The Repeitful Tongue.

OPEN LETTER TO EDITOR OF THE MENACE Editor, The Menace, Branson Mo. Dear Sir: I was greatly surprised and chagrined at the article which appeared on the first page of the Menach, Saturday, March 11th, 1922, under the caption: "Popery Challenges White Supremacy in the Sunny Southland, by Preying on the Minds of Parochial Schools Rome is Mobolizing A Generation of Blacks To Fight Southern Protestantism." I am not a subscriber to your paper, at present, but was planning to secure a large subscription list to be added to my own with the hope of arousing romantism in the note of now Romanish is making her images Protestantism in the United States of America. While I am an ardent believer in The Little Red School House and know how to pronounce the Shibbob name of the one's friends, yet I do not believe that one's badge of his superiority. Brains, and not a blind and craven Race prejudice, must rule this Nation, both North and South and all of its citizens must be taught the great truth of God's Righteousness exulteth a nation; but sin is a reproach to any people." The Constitution of these United States does not prescribe Color as a Rev. Bowling's Rev. Richard H. Bowling, Norfolk, Virginia. Dear Brother:— Please accept my hearty congratulations on your sermon, "Mission of the Modern Minister," recently delivered to your splendid congregation, and which read in the Norfolk journal and Guide. Though having a very busy day before me, you have struck such a responsive chord in my heart I cannot forego this opportunity to thank you for the same. It seems Providential that I should turn from reading the account in the journal and Guide, of your discourse, at the University of the University in the New York Age of the twentieth and find on page four an article, "Ignorance In The Van?" which treats of another phase of the same question. Praying that the Lord may continue to prosper His work in your hands, I am. Yours in the Master's service, E. E. Ricks. Newark, N. J. bude of citizenship; thus there is no such things as White Supremacy, in the eyes of the Law, but the rule of the majority of those who meet the requirement of the Federal Constitution: when this fails to obtain, and might takes the place of right, then even Protestantism will not save this our beloved land from revolution and ruin. If you really desire the perpetuity of the Nation, do not allow yourself to be swept from your moorings by the diabolical schemes of the Negro. You should not point out to them the egregious blunders they are making by not giving to the Colored children the same educational facilities they give the whites. The term for the Colored children is much shorter in most places in the country, and poorly ventilated, with some few exceptions, of course; the salary of the Teachers is so poor that it fails to invite persons who are fully qualified as pedagogues, thus poorly equipped teachers are, for the most part occupied by the Teachers. Mr. Editor, in all fairness, you know that were it not for the fact that the South has so grossly neglected its duty towards its Colored citizens, there would be no room for home or any other foreign influences, such a patriotic, loyal, and brave people as are our colored friends. Give the Colored people free public schools on par with the schools of the whites and thus do so with the people of the blacks for their sensible man would rather be an educated Romanian than a Protestant fool. Yours for God and Humanity E. E. Ricks, Newark, N. J. HERTFORD, N. C.

Lawrenceville, Va.-On Friday afternoon St. Paul gave the Lincoln University baseball machine the worst beating this pioneer institution met during its southern litery, which cover a period of two weeks or more. Lincoln scored the two runs in the first inning. In each of the other eight innings the Orange and Blue boys put into action every ounce of baseball dexterity, strategy, and experience they possessed with the hope of staging a rally, but Walker's "Blacksmith" curves proved a perfect nightmare to the agile Lincolnites. Captain Walker, ably assisted by Collins and the greatest fielders St. Paul has ever produced, administered the sphere effectively throughout the nine acts. Harkness, Lincoln's southpaw, was ineffective on the mound at times, but did not weaken in his smooth delivery. Lincoln's fielding was fair, but her batting far below par, the latter due to the fact that Walker handed the visitors "Spalding's Cork Center" in such a cruel 1922 original fashion. St. Paul's fielding and batting was superb. Bruce made a circuit drive, bringing in two runs ahead of blu. Harris, Collins, Elliott, Maddux, Cooke, Toran and Dabney, played a managerial game. The game was clean, interesting and played according to the rules. Score: St. Paul 14, Lincoln 2. Time of gaine, 2 hours, 10 minutes. Umpire, Wiley, Morris Brown. Attendance, 800. Second Game In a game abounded in heavy hitting, fast fielding and ultra-consistency, St. Paul again humbled the great baseball machine from Lincoln, Pennsylvania. The Collegians felt their defeat of the previous day keenly and fought desperately to avenge St. Paul's Friday triumph. Notwithstanding the fact that they stood almost on the pinnacle of victory, St. Paul met Lincoln's tactics with superior baseball, backed up by an indomitable will that refused to acknowledge even the possibility of a Lincoln victory; and for the second time the northern boys succumbed to the mighty strategy of Douglas' Diamonders. The second game commenced at three o'clock Saturday afternoon with Lincoln, Lincoln's best twirler, and one of the best "old pill" administrators in the country—and, by the way, a St. Paulite of the first order—took charge of the mound for the visitors. For six innings he was opposed by Wallace, a more lad, who held the old veterans to a few scattering hits. Williams retired Wallace in the second game, but time the score stood St. Paul 6, Lincoln 2, it proved to be Williams' off day, and we walked three men; this, with one hit, enabled Lincoln to tie the score. Captain Walker returned to complete the work of the second game. A pitcher's battle ensued. St. Paul's two hits, and Lincoln's error in the last half of the tenth, however, culminated in victory for the home team. Johnson pitched a wonderful game, and his little brother held him well.

Very few errors were recorded against the Orange and Black boys. "Joe Wood" Toran hit a four-base drive to center field, "but muscular trouble caused him to give up the journey at second. Both teams played good ball, and exhibited genuine sportsmanship. Score: St. Paul 7; Lincoln 6. 6 Time of game, 2 hours 27 minutes. Umpire, Wiley, Morris Brown. Attendance, 1000.

Public To Pick Dempsey's Opponent It is now up to the public to pick the next opponent for Jack Dempsey. Since this is the case will the public allow partiality to over balance their judgment? "Will the choice be Harry Wills? Or will the public decide some white man such as Harry Greb, the Pittsburg Flash, or Jess Williard, the towering man from Kansas?" quotes the Sunday News, a New York publication. The Sunday News further asserts that "there are many candidat s". That's true but who are the worthy ones? Harry Wills has earned a right by his victory over Kid Norfolk. Dempsey has proved his superiority over the white contenders he has met why not Wills next? Removal you may reach us more and that we may serve efficiently— EPPS CO., Inc.
