CITY EDITION VOL. XXII. NO. 24 SPEAKER ASKS FOR HARMONY AMONG RACES Declares Issue Is Drawn Clearly Between Those Who Believe In Race Gospel Of Good Will In Those Who Do Not. (Special to Journal and Guide) Richmond, Va.-At the annual commencement of Virginia Union University here, Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary Commission on the Church and Race Relations, of the University of Virginia, has addressed his audience, when he declared that the issue is drawn clearly in America between those who believe in the gospel of good-will in race rebellion and those who are carrying out a copaganda of violence and mob rule. "Our Mutual Inheritance." Speaking on the subject, "Our Mutual Inheritance," the speaker said that we had a great material inheritance in the rich agricultural lands of the country, in the organized industrial economy, in the items of wealth but that the greatest inheritance was the character and industry of the people. He spoke further of the mental; moral, political and spiritual inheritance which came from the past. In speaking of our political inheritance, he said: "The first words of our constitution are, 'We, the people,' and through struggle and bloody toil America had deserved of America descent as a part of the citizenship of this country; that the ideal of democracy was that all the people—men and women black and white formed a part of those who were the proverse union to establish justice and to provide for the common defense." Peace And Good-Will On the subject of peace and good will between the races he said, "The time hs come when those who be peace and good-will between the classes and races of men should come forth and take their stand for peace and justice and give to people in America because in this peace is involved the sincerity of American Christians and citizens and the fundamental issue of the color line between the white and darker races of the world."

Hampton, Va., June—That humanity constantly requires a few unfinching Puritans who will not equivocate, even to themselves, was the opinion expressed recently by James E. Gregg, principal of Henry W. Hancock University, reate sermon on "Double-mindedness." He cited the cases of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, William Garrison, Abraham Lincoln, John Wright in England, and Theodore Roosevelt, whom he compounded the quality of moral inflexibility. "Men and women," said Doctor Gregg, too even sanction with their heads what their hearts disapprove. They say: "I don't like to do this bit too much, but I seem necessary." Business in business; When you are in Rome, you must do as the Romani do. "I didn't wish to seem self-righteous." I was only following instructions. "Well, . . . man he to live." "Pentty of people high-minded." "Pentty of people high-minded." Gregg stated that these are some of the stock excuses which one hears in defense of a good man's participation in wrong-doing. "The bankruptcy of self-interest as a guiding principle for mankind be with each international conference. Christ's way of fairness and friendliness; of sympathy, courtesy, honesty, courage, and good-will, is seen to be the one straight road to lasting peace, sound prosperity, real success, honorable happiness. This is true for man, for all races, for all nations." "The mechanic must take care that his attention to details does not become fussiness; his skillful speed, hastiness; the school-teacher must maintain his authority; the sorrieriness become harshness. The soldier must be on his guard against both tyranny and slavishness. The lawyer must beware that his zeal for the interests of his client does not lead him into an advocacy of narcissism; the lawyer must it that his loyalty to his profession does not cause him to cover up its occasional blunders and so to hinder the advance of humanity to sounder health and firmer happiness. The minister must maintain with good care and upholding the Church and the Church's faith does not blind him to the fundamental necessity of sincerity in every word and deed." Doctor Gregg made a plan for efficient Christianism, which so needed Christianity that so efficient and efficiency that is Christian." ton. Mr. George Saunders delivered an address.

Davis, Ranking Scholar of Hampton, Pleads For Attention To Individuality: Hampton, Va., June—Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, in presenting the St. Philip's Church School prize to Arthur P. Davis of Hampton, the ranking scholar and valedictorian of the 1922 class, said: "Long ago the common fallacy that the prizes of life and sure success go to the boys and girls who are undistinguished in school and college, was refuted by the best statistics available. It was discovered, after a careful search through the fates of 'Who's Who,' who are the most successful of success among his fellow-men in after life, if he begins by succeeding in school and college." Arthur P. Davis in his address on "The Contribution of the Individual," more strong plea that men should discover and develop individualities. He said: "There are many who feel that standardization, the mere following of the crowd, is a sure sign of progress. Theirs is the clearer vision who firmly believe in individualism—the members of the race, as well as the race itself, must protect their individuality. The race that produces only one type of man soon becomes decadent. To make a growing race, it takes radicals as well as conservatives. The conflicting thoughts of these groups tend to be more liberal and give life. All races are inclined to preserve old customs, whether they be were no radicals to question and attack these old customs; the race would soon become stagnant. On the other hand, if there were no conservatives to counteract the overtusiasm of the radicals, the race might be more subtle in the past that has permanent value. "That race would indeed be fortunate, all of whose members thought-alike, believed alike, and lived alike, for a race with only one school of thought is unbalanced and we had nothing but Hamptons for the Negro race, and no Howard, there would be a serious lack of physicians and lawyers; and if we had all Howards and no Hamptons, there would be a great dearth of culturalists, culturalists, and trained mechanics. Both types of schools are equally important and necessary." NEWPORT NEWS (D. J. Jones) The National Grand Council of A. U. K. and D. of A. held their annual sermon at the Second Baptist Church, corner Hampton and Madison Avenue last Sunday. The sermon was preached by Rev. A. A.

Ziff Co., Chicago, Ill., and New York City. Entered as Second Class Matter at the Post Office at Norfolk, Va. SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1922 With a Food Show in July and an Industrial Fair in September, Norfolk is getting ready to show off sure enough. The Mayor's suggestion that the churches destroyed in the recent Borkley fire should be assisted from the unexpended relief funds will no doubt meet the approval of citizens who contributed the funds. It is a timely thought and we hope to see it carried out. The municipal election resulted in the re-election of Councilmen Butler, Martin, Herbert and Grice by handsome majorities, a splendid vote of confidence in their past administration of city affairs as well as vindication of the progressive policies of City Manager Ashburner. All of which is as it should be. Now let us all pull for a Greater Norfolk. It is apparent that a cloak of charity may be easily converted into a mantle of scorn. The Virginian Pilot warmly commended Prof. Kerlin for the courage of his convictions last August and emphatically condemned the board of Virginia Military Institute for summarily dismissing the professor. Its recitation which is published in another column on this page shows that the editor is not willing to go on with Prof. Kerlin in his determination to find a larger sympathy for his convictions. The country was full of scientists at one time who claimed that America's so-called race problem would settle itself in course of time as the Negroes were rapidly dying out and their total extinction was only a matter of time. Now we learn from the records of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company that the Negro death rate for the country has been reduced from 17.5 per 1,000 in 1911 to 13.2 in 1921, a decline of 25 per cent in one decade. In Norfolk city the death rate of the race has dropped to 9.7, an unprecedented figure. Following the same sort of reasoning indulged in by the scientists a few years ago it is reasonable to say that as the Negro death rate has declined 25 per cent, in ten years, in forty years it (the death rate) will be wiped out! COLONEL KERLIN Everyone of Norfolk's citizens who heard the magnificent address of Col. Robert T. Kerlin will remember the man and his splendid eloquence, fullness of information and fairness of mind in dealing with the problem of race relations. It must be a common hope that more men like him will come out of the bosom of the South and help to make it a better and safer place for all of its people to live in. Col. Kerlin reached the highest point in his address when he said: "Your young men shall dream dreams and your old men see visions. Without dreams no worthy achievement was ever born." Then he became introspective, saying: "I dream of a Republic wherein every man's home will be secure; I dream of a Republic where every woman may feel that the confines of her home are sacred precints; I dream of a Republic where every child will receive the benefit of the guarantees vouchafied in the Declaration of Independence and in Magna Charta." Col Kerlin's dream will yet come true. The Almighty God of this Republic will see to that. The South was made for all of its people, and they will all yet live in peace and peace; I dream of a Republic where under his own roof and restrained only by the Constitution in the enjoyment of his rights and immunities as "a person, a citizen, of the United States, and of the State in which he resides." AFRICA LOCKED TIGHT Dr. C. S. Brown has shown us, in his article in THE JOURNAL AND GUIDE of June S., that the white Powers which control all of the vast Continent of Africa, except Liberia and Argyria, have locked it tight against Afro Americans and West Indians all Afroids, for the matter of that even blahops, and missionaries being persecuted in their inhuman and immensive in the country as to make their work only partially effective. We new this fact from the mouth of native Africans with whom we were conversed and tales of return to America before Dr. Brown stated that fully and wholly sup- many readers of THE JOURNAL AND Gumps did not know it. GUIDE did not know it. We know this, however, that the white races have not the "enlarged" power to shut out the light of Truth from the millions in Africa, where the iron heel is digging deep into the flesh of millions of black natives. The natives are even now beginning to arouse them to the awfulness of their condition and to seek to better it. British tyranny in Africa is bound to over reach itself and fall down in the long run. The British can no more break the spirit of the millions of Africa than they can that of the millions of India, where they have imprisoned Mohandas Ghandi and 10,000 of his followers, in the effort to break their resolution not to co-operate with the British in anything. The condition of the natives of the Union of South Africa, numbering nearly 5,000,000 people, under British rule, is practically one of slavery. Neither the conditions in Africa nor India can be perpetuated. They have got to be changed for the better. The unrest and desperation of the Natives will compel it. The effort to create like conditions in our Southern States is also bound to fail, to come to naught. THE "PROBLEM" Our distinguished townman, Dr. Byrd, wrote a very fine letter to the Ledger-Dispatch the other day asking in most tactful and diplomatic terms that the Ledger-Dispatch in particular and the white press in general devote less space to printing news of a derogatory nature about the Negro race and more space to printing news of a creditable nature, and the Ledger-Dispatch editor made a most generous editorial acknowledgment of the justice and reasonableness of Dr. Byrd's request and announced that it would on Saturday (today) if arrangements could be effected by that time begin "devoting once or twice a week a certain amount of space in its columns, in a fixed place, to news of the 'other side.'" The which prompts us, "in all courtesy," as Dr. Byrd diplomatically put it, to inquire indirectly, why the Ledger-Dispatch should propose to segregate in a "fixed place" news of the sort that reflects credit upon the race, when it does not segregate the other kind? We are weary of invidious distinctions. Unless we do not know Dr. Byrd he was not requesting, nor did he intend to suggest that the Ledger-Dispatch start a jim crow news department. If we are not mistaken in our knowledge of the man he intended to ask that news of a creditable nature he sought by the papers and given as much prominence as the news that does not reflect any credit upon the race, and that the latter should not be published to the exclusion of the former. If we have misinterpreted the good doctor's letter, or his mind, we hasten to offer him and the Ledger-Dispatch our apology. Nothing here said is meant to reflect upon the sincerity of the Ledger-Dispatch in its expressed determination to "make a practical contribution toward the best possible solution of a problem which has demanded, and still demands, the clearest thinking of which our people are capable." The editors and publishers of the Ledger-Dispatch have shown in many ways in the past that they are right at heart upon the race question. There is just the possibility, however, that by continually emphasizing the "problem," and by continually advertising to the "separateness" of our relations to the community, the state and country, they will unconsciously offend our pride of self and race, and discourage and dampen our enthusiasm. We Negroes recognize the inviolable status of all these things in our Southern environments, have accepted them as essential to inter-racial amity, and have enough intelligence to be treated as human beings without wanting to be invited to dinner by our white friends. So the invidious distinctions that are so handy to them are unnecessary to our isolation and are offensive to our sensibilities. Our social and economic progress means not merely the progress of ourselves as a group, but it means progress for the community, state and country as a whole, in a spiritual and material way, and when our friends speak of wishing to assist us to develop in our "separate sphere" they are talking in paradoxical terms despite their perfectly good intentions. Just treat us as regular people, recognizing the good as well as the bad, and we will be satisfied.

Spring died today, As still as the voice of silence, Tear stained Nature does obesance; Hushed the musings of the zephyrs, Mute the birds in branch and bower, Checked the streams bent on their courses, When the funeral cortegue passes, Angels tending. GOD'S CHASTENING ROD Prench not to me of heathen far away, Whose souls have never tasted God's sweet love Wandering aimlessly, no light above. Preach not to me of justice and of right, Nor dare tell me that your Christ is God; While rule is based on cruel power and might While we the under dogs you urge to fight— Forgetting the coming of the chastening rod. Scissored MAKING TROUBLE In August, 1921, the Board of Visitors of the Virginia Military Institute dismissed from the faculty Professor Robert T. Korilin. The reason given for his dismissal was that he had transgressed the proprieties in protecting to the Governor of Arkansas, imposed on certain negroes for the play played by them in the Elaine, Arkansas, riots of 1919. A dismissal based on such grounds could not be justified. It penalized individual and academic freedom of thought and sacrificed the ancient privilege of education to the oppressor's seminism. The action of the Board of Visitors was roundly criticized in the press of the country, the Virginian Pilot being among the newspapers that characterized it as reprehensible. Recent activities of the Pilot question that the incompatibility that resulted in his dismissal was more formidable than appeared from the episode of his appeal to the Governor of Arkansas. His speeches in Norfolk and Richmond, delivered under colored suspicions to the Governor, prompted the tempered mind that is affronted by an act of injustice as the spirit of the headlong-crusader engaged in preaching a gospel of racial equality in terms that can only make an already troubling minority of Professor Kerlin's convictions is not here brought into question. One may assume that he believes zealously in the justice of the social accommodation that he is preaching. But neither is it possible to ignite in the public mind of Southern people that the white broadcast 'these views' to indiscriminate audiences 'are striking at interracial peace and understanding.' Mr. Kerlin is recklessness with which Mr. Kerlin works on matters that can only be regarded as a trouble-making mission, suggests that he is morbidly pre-occupied with an issue that ought at all times to be guarded against. Mr. Kerlin is in a room in a Southern college faculty for a teacher with whom the race issue has become a morbid obsession. Mr. Kerlin has helped the Virginian Pilot to arrive at the conclusion that the teacher is not doing anything to be regretted in connection with the action of the V. M. I. board is that it did not make public the whole story. This aside, it is entitled to an amende honorable from those who have been involved, as the newspaper is concerned, it now has it—Virginian Pilot. Letters From The People Lack Of Accommodations In The Space Reserved For Colored At City Park. Editor Journal and Guide: Sir: To you who, in its infancy, have seen the sun swathed in swaddling clothes of effulgent rays emerge from behind the eastern skies and spread its wings of light and chase darkness over the abysmal western hills; To you, who, under azure tinted skies, have set and watched April's gentle zephyr caress Mother Earth's babies and lash the earth while plush waters into tiny undulating waves: To you, who, have gazed upon the seven wonders of the world and have watched mighty Niagra the writing and dashing itself incessantly over the depths into innumerable rivulets to spend its fury finally in some quiet and unobtrusive nook: Yourings Youa have been wonderful, sublime, great and inspiring spectacles. But, know ye that ye have gone afar to look for that which is inferior to that which ye have with ye ally? Translate yourselves by the power of your imaginations and be with us while in transports of joy eastery and with quivering pen make attempt to portray that gorgeous, magnificent and most wonderful scene which meets the eye of the observing person while viewing the luxurious and edifying space set aside for Negroes in our wonderful City Park. We have not meandered desolately mild the silent streets and thru the winding pathways of our City Park, and whose knowledge of its location may be equivalent to the algebraic, we make explanation: Where Thirty-fifth street abruptly puts itself into Granby street stade and dwells and owl like, staring at, the unkissed and bejeweled hills of the golden West. This then is the entrance. Moving in a tortuous pathway in an Easterly direction for about two or three hundred yards, more or less, and facing to the left we are face to face with a semiring relic of bygone granduer, a fallen, whose once enormous head that it whose a temporary of two more of a like kind. The other two, sad to relate, have long since passed into oblivion, gone perhaps to be kindling wood for some plebian hearth, but not forgotten. And here the relic, tattered, torn and dilapidated, arms dangling and body creaking at the least atmosphere stands forlently, yet bravely the last of the "Great emphate, broadening the eyes of the companionship, heroically envisaging the day when it too shall pass into the great beyond and leave the tall pines to sweep and groan alone. Leaving the solitary swing and looking towards the Heavens, a little to the west of the aforedescribed swing that was, our vision is met by a little house in the back of the bighorns of the air. We take no stock in the assertion that the City Fathers are believers in Darwinism and placed if there so that we might exercise our supposed Darwinian proclivities. Be that as it may, the fact remains that it is the only structure in our space that bears most resemblance to a house or shelter. Aside from the multitudinous conveniences placed conspicuously in our space, which we have laboriously and accurately described, we have allotted to us several pines of divers sizes whose silent solemnity lend grace and dedication. For this munificent allocation, City Fathers, accept our humble thanks, for alco in the City Park, the birds may have nest and the foxes holes and the colored brother has no place to rest his weary bones, you have in your most wonderful vision in our space with air. Again, and again, we thank you. W. L. DAVIS. Norfolk, Virginia.

KLAN SHERIFF LOSES POSITION Judge Declares K. K. K. Oath Contravenes With Oath Of Public Office. Beaumont, Texas—Judge Robert G. Street, of Galveston, sitting in the District of Texas, changed his position from Beaumont, head of charge preferred by a group of citizens that Sheriff Tom H. Garnes, of Jefferson county, had outgrown his usefulness as sheriff because of his membership in the Klux Klan, instructed the jury to retaliate and arrest removing the sheriff from office. In his instructions to the jury, following conclusion of the taking of testimony in the trial, Judge Street accused the Ku Klux Klan violates the official oath of a county sheriff. He added that it had been proved that Garner had been a member of this institution and that he should be removed. CLAN OATH THE CAUSE Judge Street in holding that the oath of the Ku Klux Klan was in contravention of the oath taken in an officer of the law, prefaced his decision by striking out all testimony offered during the trial, which lasted three days: "I am said: "I have reached a conclusion in this case that entirely dispenses with any further evidence in the case. In my contemplation it is the duty of the sheriff to enforce the laws of this state, and that oath that he takes, the official oath that has just been introduced, is contravened and contradicted by the oath of the Ku Klux Klan that has been given evidence in this case and that such evidence is contradictory that I should direct a verdict removing the sheriff from office, which I now do." FOREMAN READS VERDICT "Read the verdict, Mr. Clerk," th said. "I will wait, but then the following verdict, "The jury's verdict follows: 'We, the jury, find that the charge by the complainants that the respondent has been guilty of official misconduct in that being sheriff he became during his term of office a member of the Ku Klux Klan and that the charge was guilty of evidence and that the same is illegal behavior in relation to the duties of his office, wilfully performed, and is in contravention of his oath of office. 'FRANK L. RENAUD, Foreman.' The court, following reading of the verdict, said: 'If any member of this jury arises and disagrees with the verdict of the court he will be found guilty. This ambouncement followed a request for a poll of the jury by George O'Brien, chief counsel for the defendant, after which the venerable jurist looked directly at O'Brien and said: 'Now do you want the jury polled?'

Millikin (white) was shot and killed by Mrs. Fannie a wife of the white farmer last week. There appears to have been some bad feeling between Millikin and McGee for some time and when McGee went to Millikin's home trouble startled him, shot with a back gun by Mrs. Millikin. Millikin informed the coroner that she was threatened by the man who had a brick in his hand. THE MAN WHO HAS ENOUGH LIFE INSURANCE Such a person has no wife or mother at present dependent upon his earnings unless he wants these people to take up the struggle for existence after he is gone. Many a man does what he wants in life that is well cared for during his life-time without considering the job that the wife must find after his own earnings have ceased. The better his circumstances are at present the harder he makes it for the family to maintain the standard after the savings account has been used up.

The education and rearing of even a single child requires an undisturbed environment and is reached. Nothing could be more cruel to provide well for the childhood of such a dependent and then have the future turn back before High School is passed. Many a boy now selling papers on the street or girl selling books in a school who has enough life insurance think a bit. Life is the must uncertain thing in the world. Such a person has already done more than provide the continuance of his present course to the twentieth year of his youngest. Such a person has cleared up all the obligation on his present investments. Many incomes are swollen by using the rentals from investments within the home, accustoming the client to the payments, and the payment of the mortgages when the head of the family is removed. Unless sufficient life insurance is taken to care for these obligations, premature death must curtail the income of the family so severely as to reduce to want those accustomed to the risk. The sold-sec provisions profitable to the seller even when the court has supervision. The late Henry P. Davison was several times a millionarie years ago. Yet as late as 1907 he increased his premium to two million dollars, then two million dollars. Despite his large material possessions which he realized within his own life-time, and the fact that his children were well able to care for themselves, he understood the opportunity which life insurance offered to provide the cash payments remaining after his death. The person who really belives that he has enough life insurance has just ended about his usefulness on earth. Should such a person have a family dependent upon him; each day is making him a great liability to these dependents.—The Insurance Salesman.

To the Churches and Pastors Composing the Tidewater Peninsular Association, Eastern Virginia: Dear Co-workers: The time of our 23rd annual session is fast-approaching. We are to meet this year in the old historic Antioch Baptist church, Mathews county, Arkansas. It was in this church that our Association held its first session and received its first inspiration. She will welcome our return with open arms, and is leaving no stone unturned to make our stay among them pleasant. It is the wish of the Moderator that every church will be largely reponsible for that. We must remember shall be in keeping with those of the years preceding this. At a meeting of the Executive Board, very recently held, it was decided which is a very small amount when we consider the great and worthy objects which are before us, and the responsibilities which we have accepted to carry. Financeally conditions are certain for them, but even been; certainly not, but Providence is always favorable to those who are willing to make a sacrifice for the advancement of the Kingdom of God, the education of an ignorant people. In this work our Association has wrought well, and the individual churches have done like wise, and right here I wish to thank my co-laborers and friends for the support you have given me as your standard bearer. I am grateful for your session as your leader, and being out of the State at this time it will not be convenient for me to do the field work such as I have done in previous years. But it is my hope and prayer that every man will feel himself personally obligated to do his best so that there is no falling off by virtue of my absence. Let us not forget the date and place, August the 16th, Antioch, Mathews Co., Va. I am appealing to pastors and people to start your efforts now. The missionaries did a splendid work last year, which was much appreciated. Let us all remember that codices of old manuscripts is important, it is urgent, it is necessary. Let us pledge anew our allegiance to these worthy objects. Wishing you great success in your efforts, and trusting that we shall meet you at Antioch, I beg to remain Yours for righteousness, J. H. ASHBY, Moderator. G-17-tf. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH "Looking unto the Mountains," text, Psa. 121:1, was the subject of an uplifting, spiritual sermon by the pastor in the morning service last Sunday. This message resulted in two additions to the church. The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. were largely attended. In the evening service the pastor delivered an instructive and timely sermon from the subject, "Plen for the Honoring of Marriage," text, Hib. 30:1. The pastor will preach the first of a series of special sermons on "Community Life and its Varied Activities." METROPOLITAN A. M. E. ZION Services were largely attended all day Sunday. Our Sunday school was quite lively and among us were many students, recently returned from school. The Young Men's Bible Class was the banner class. At 11 o'clock Dr. S. W. Moore prevailed for 10:45. At 8:30, the pastor, Rev. King, preached the nineteenth annual sermon to the Hod Carriers Local. The pastor again occupied his pulpit at 7:30. CALVARY BAPISTIN Services in our church were largely attended last Sunday. Quite a few came to the early morning prayer service. The Sunday school opened at the usual hour: 9:30. We were the main hearer. We were at 11:30 the pastor prescribed a powerful sermon from the book of Ether. 4:14.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE Woman's Conducted by MIRI When the prince Gedaliah the governor was treacherously slain by a prince of the house of David—the survivors, fearing vengeance of Nebuchadnezzar, fled to Egypt, and compiled Jeremiah to go with them. Jeremiah was martyred by his countrymen. Jeremiah was given the privilege to go to Babylon or remain in Judah. The prophet would have received every consideration in Babylon. He choose to remain with his people in Babylon. Jeremiah pass mournfully amid the ruins! Here was the site of the altar; there of the Most-Holy Place. There was the paice of David; and there was the place where he had so often stood to warn his people of their sins. What this meant to Jeremiah was beaten by the Jerusalemians who fail to say. No truer What Phoion felt for Athens, what Savonarola for Florence, what the elder Pit for England, amid the catastrophes that darkened his latter days that in a consecrated form must have felt and suffered. Antichristians who in after days was to sit in the same mount and look across the valley, he might have said: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto him. How often they come even as a hen gathered her children under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate." (F. B. Myer). Puppet or Prophet —Which? SERMON BY REV.

BRIGGS Instructor of Theology and the English Bible, Virginia Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (BS Rev. E. Briggs.) SUNDAY, JUNE 18. THE DOWNFALL OF JUDAH.—2 KINGS 25:1-21. GOLDEN TEXT—Boy not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man sowth, that shall he also reap—Gal. 6:7. 1. Zedekiah's Rebellion and Downfall, verses 1-7. Among the treasures in the British Museum there is part of the head of a goddess carved in marble. This goddess fragment rests on the temple floor, not far from Marathon—where the famous races were held. This goddess was named Meshes. She was said to be the daughter of the god of migrils—and the Ramsocks—and the Ramsocks, too, were much afraid of her. She was the goddess of vencance, and supposed to be the god of the thou, had done wrong field. This goddess was named emesis. She was named by the daughter of the god of might—and the old Greeks—and the Romans, too, were much afraid of her. She was the mother of encees, supposed to pursue those people who had done wrong until they had been thoroughly punished for their wrong doing. Zedekiah rebelled against Nebuchadnei, who took over for king of Babylon had placed this prince on the throne of Judah), and the Great King besieged Jerusalem, and after eighteen months the City of David fell. Zedekiah attempted to escape but he was overtaken in the battle, and brought to Nebuchadnezor of Ribah. At the command of the Great king the sons of Zedekiah were slain, the king of Judah had his eyes put out and was carried bound in fetters to Babylon, who just desserts of a wickle table held the king. Read Jerez, 13:13; Ezek. 12:13 Zedekiah's full teaches us that 'all departure from God is ruin. We slay ourselves by forsaking him, and every sinner is a suicide. We live under a moral government, and we are not alone in that even hero evil transgression receives its just recompense—if not visibly and palpably in outward circumstances, yet fearfully and punctually in effects on mind and heart, in the solomun and awful Sin and sorrow no root and fruit." Alexander McLaren. 2. Jerusalem Destroyed, verses, 8-21. Judah, like the northern kingdom, is like an emil from the same causes, and in a acuerdo unchangable laws which have repeatedly operated in the downfall of other kingdoms.' As the prophets so clearly pointed out, religious, social and moral corruption led to the weakening of the state.' -Prof. Charles F. Kent Jerusalem refused to mend her ways—and paid the price, downfall—destruction, and desolation. The temple, the king's house, and all the houses great and small burned with fire Nebuzarzad, and the army of Moses, the bride bride, the house of Jerusalem, and the Chideans carried away to Babylon all the brass, silver, and gold of the temple of Solomon and the utensils. The chief priest, the second priest—the royal officers, the king's councillors—chamberlain, and the secretary of the general of the army—the rinukonets were put to death at Ribbun, and the rinukonets were very poorest were carried to Babylon to be slaves and servants to Nebuchadnezzar. "The very bones and framework of Jerusalem appeared to bevarripped in flames. The walls and gates seemed to lament and cry as they sank into the earth. The saphephus, even the consecrated catacombs of Jerusalem, bodies thrown out to the vultures and beasts of prey, which flocked to their frightful feast outside the walls. Jackals wandered over the sacred hill of Zion. The havoc and carnage in the streets was such that passers-by avoided every one they saw, and their bloody touch."—Dean Stanley 3. The Fate of Poor People and of Jeremiah. The poorest of the people were left to cultivate the land, as vine-dressers and husbandmen. Gedalah, the son of Jeremiah's friend Abikan, was made governor of the cities of Judah with headquarters at Miznun BRIGGSOGRAMS The harvest is determined altogether upon what the sowing is. There is a limit even to the patience of God. The disobedient and the heedless shall come to a bitter end. God stands by them who stand for him. The peoples of Europe will stick together when their affairs are not gummed by diplomats—Washington (TD, C). Post. Woman's Corner Conducted by MIRIAM DIXON Women Everywhere During the illness of Rev. W. F. Savage, pastor Zion Evangelical church of Potstown, Pa., his wife and daughter conducted the services and prescheed the sermons. In order to take advantage of the great supply of electricity that Sweden is to have by harnessing the water powers of the northern provinces, the Swedish Housewives Uniform and uniform store of household electric appliances that they make their labor savers at a price within the reach of all.

Spain's first woman candidate for Parliament is Signorita Garen Leo, who has been nominated by the Romanones party in Madrid. Waitresses of the Victoria Hotel in London are required to indulge in a morning threat gargle as a pre caution against Influenza. Buenos Ayres.—During the last two months ten babies have been abandoned on the steps of local churches. Maybe they think "God will take care of them." It is reported that a graduate of Lincoln Memorial University in the Tennessee mountains, is planning to run for Congress. TAKING STOCK Yes baby, just back from a short call and I am sorry I didn't stay here with you. Maybe I am sofish, but I am sofish. We've been so contented, just to live and have each other it never occurred to me that Vera thought me out of things; but today when I called in for dinner, I seemed so detached, and busy, and all. On my way out I met Sarah, she wasn't in my class, but we were neighbors and chums, yes she is busy too and sorter superior, what, with correcting examination papers and all, with all, yes Den, she teaches school. An honorable profession indeed, but one smile from you honey pays me for any sacrifice I may have made. Your eyes are so bright, and that funny smile is adorable. I wouldn't swap you for anything. No the outing wasn't all gloom. I came across dear little Violet May and big easy going Clarence, he was full of slow fun and not changed by big. We chatted a long time too, and it was easy left by Vera and Sarah. Violet May, best baby, she beamed good will. Everyone of her shy little sweetness has followed her through the years, even the twitching of her little finger. And we visited one whole hour on the street, wasn't that improper? I know it was daring, but when you meet one that hasn't changed you get so excited you forget to stop and talk to the man. And after all it's nice to be just folks, it's tiresome being superior. Next issue "Your Neighbor." Do not miss reading, if you are not a subscriber become one at once. Questions and Answers Are women more religious than men? That is, are they sincere in their religion? All churches have more female than male members. —BACHELOR. Women accept the right more quickly than men; more sincere in their love for God's Word and hence better Christians. MISMATED Do you think my case hopeless? I am 22, married to a man 35, who did not even have a job. (I didn't know it at the time) he has one now, but at small lwages. I am used to good clothes and wholesome fun, my husband content to spend his evenings at home. —A FLAPPER. Girls look before you leap, it is too late now to do anything unless you are willing to be very patient. A man is young at 35 and can be trained to your liking. Love him a great deal and temper your own desires, then teach them things you do. You should be a very contented person, but we rarely like what we have. If you make yourselves congenial along other lines money will take care of itself. Mrs. Dixon: Please tell me what is a fapper. They are naming girls everything these days and boys are just as horrid when they have a mind to be. CHUMS. Will somebody help me out with this question! Flapper is a new word I am not familiar with its ancestora. A GROUCH We aren't young or foolish, I am fifty and my husband is older. He is "A Sermon. With a Strong Appeal to Christian Citizenship."

Ed. Mackall, the Giant's colored trainer, a man whose fame was never heralded in the sporting world, nor whose songs were ever sung outside of his own camp, probably trained more baseball players than any other man, the world of sports. The present Worlds Champions and Worlds champions in previous years came under his tutelage. But Mackall is no more and the champions mourn the loss of a fine trainer, a clean sport and a Christian gentleman. While the Giants were playing in Boston Mackall was taken ill on a day or so it was reported that he was getting better. He did not continue to improve, however, and died in Boston a few days ago. With the exception of Manager McGraw, no other employee of the Giants saw so many New York players come and go. McGraw had a chance to win from John Hokpins. He was with Joe Kelly in Cincinnati in 1903, when Kelly managed the Reds, and in 1904 McGraw brought him to New York He was traineed of all of McGraw's clinics from 1905, 1914, 1918, 1927, and 1921. 1905, 1911, 1912, 1913, 1917 and 1921. Mackall. He was an able man in his line, always a gentleman, and had many friends in and out of baseball. He was also a shock to John McGraw who was greatly attached to the trainer. Mr. Mackall visited Norfolk in 1920 and was guest of Attorney J. M. Harrison.

Special attention of those operating boarding houses or summer resort, hotel or cottages is directed to the listings below—that you can buy on— at once. They base their demands on the grounds that the colored resort is conducive to race friction and greatly depreciates the place as a beach resort. The white citizens state, however, that they are willing to help secure grounds for the colored people on west beach. PLACE IS ORDERLY. It appears that the nearness to each either of the two resorts is about what constitutes the true basis for the petition, as so far there has been no disorder on either side. The mayor and city commissioners have taken the request under action and it is quite some action, even as soon as a suitable place can be found for the colored people as a summer resort.
