REID NAMED GRAND CHANCELLOR OF PYTHIANS
ORDER WILL BE REHABILITATED IN VIRGINIA
ORDER WILL BE REHABILITATED IN VIRGINIA
Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias and Court of Calanthe of Virginia Begin a New Era.
WILL RENEW RELATIONS
WITH SUPREME LODGE
Petersburg, Va., June 27—The 38th annual meeting of the Grand Lodge of Virginia, Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, was convened in this city, on June 19th, and was in session three days. The meeting was held at the time designated in the Grand Lodge Constitution and at the time designated in the convention meeting; but the preclamation for the convention was issued by Honorable Joseph Button, the Commissioner of Insurance, receiver, into whose hands the Order was committed by a decree of the Circuit Court of the City of Richmond, entered on the 26th day of October, 1922, upon proceedings instituted by the Commissioner for the purpose of protecting the financial rights of the Order which had become seriously imperiled by closing of the Mechanics Savings Bank, of Richmond, the depository of all Grand Lodge funds, as well as the funds of the Grand Court of Calanthe.
RECEIVER REPORTS
The meeting was held in Ebenzer Baptist Church, the Grand Lodge in the main auditorium and the Grand Court at the same time in the basement. The two bodies were at first assembled jointly to hear the Receiver's receipt, which was given with satisfaction of resources and liabilities, in order and the steps taken by him to recover the monies of the two Orders, which had been misapplied on the books of the bank. The Receiver complimented the membership for its loyal support given him in handling the affairs of the Lodge and Grand Court, and declared his confidence and co-operation he would in short, possibly within six months, be able and ready to restore the business of both organizations to their proper officers, with an up-to-date system for keeping the financial accounts and other records, provided a satisfactory set of officers should be elected.
THOMAS HEWIN PRESIDED
Sir J. Thomas Hewin, of Richmond, was selected by the Receiver to preside during the reading of his report and until a new set of officers should be elected. Sir Hewin presided until the conclusion of the Receiver's voluminous report on the information when the point was made by Sir Tayler, of Richmond, that in order to be legal the officers must be elected in accordance with the ritualistic requirements, and that Sir Hewin was not qualified to preside during the election. Sir W. H. C. of Newport News, was instantly appointed to the Receiver that Sif W. M. Reid, as Grand Master of the Work, was the proper person to preside. The Receiver at once accepted Sir Brown's suggestion and Sir Reid to preside, which he did in session, the Grand Court withdrawing to the basement to hold its separate meetings.
TIDEWATER FOR REID
It may not be improper to state that the membership in Tidewater, representing Norfolk, Portsmouth, Newport News, Suffolk and nearby boroughs, for some weeks past, had been engaged in perfecting an organization to bring about the election of certain Tidewater men for the offices of Grand Chancellor, Grand Master of Exchequer and Grand Keeper of Records and Seal; with the understanding that, while they might sacrifice any other candidate as means of success, they would stand by Wm. M. Reid for Grand Chancellor first, last and all the time.
The friends of Sir John Mitchell, Jr., finding that his candidacy for re-election would not be acceptable to the Receiver, had as far as could, united the Richmond and Southwestern delegations in the support of W. F. W. B. Crowell, of Roanoke, for Grand Chancellor. But finding many of the delegates from Roanoke, Lynchburg and Danville training with Tidewater people, the Crowell faciation sent a committee to the Tidewater headquarters to arrange a compromise. This was finally effected, the faciation being delayed for that purpose after the Lodge re-convened for the morning session on the second day: The Grand Lodge was then closed to
DR. WILLIAM H. SKINNER
In the recent state examination before the Virginia Board of Dental Examiners, Dr. William H. Skinner, of this city, a recent graduate of Howard University School of Dentistry, was among the successful candidates, distinguishing himself in practical work by making an average of 86 per cent, the highest maintained by any of the 60 candidates.
Dr. Skinner is now doing postwork at the College of Oral and Dental Surgery, New York City.
permit the Receiver to come in and announce the candidates agreed upon by the two factions, and to say that, if elected, the ticket would be satisfactory to him. The Receiver then retired, the Grand Lodge was reopened in due form, the compromise ticket was nominated as a whole and a motion made to suspend the rules and cast the vote for the ticket. After a number of most eloquent speeches both for and against the ticket the previous question was called for and the motion carried unanimously.
The following are the officers elected:
Grand Chancellor, Wm, M., Reid of Portsmouth* Grand Vice-Chancellor, W. B. F. Crowell, of Roanoke; Grand Prelate, Rev. Clifton Cabell, of Lynchburg; Grand Master of Exchequer, Dr. E. R. J. Jefferson, of Richmond; Grand Keeper of Records and Seal, Albert V. Norvell, Sr., of Richmond; Grand Master of the Work, John T. Taylor, of Richmond; Grand Lecturer, John M. White of Manassas* of Attorney, John M. White of Newport; Grand Medical Director, Dr. A. A. Tennant, of Richmond; Grand Master-at-Arms, Joshua Williams, of Danville; Grand Inner Guard, J. E. Byrd, of Newport News; Grand Outer Guard, W. T. Stokes, of Petersburg.
CONSTITUTION AMENDED
An amendment to the Grand Lodge Constitution was adopted creating the office of Grand Attorney. A resolution was adopted ratifying the apology made by the Grand Chancellor and Grand Keeper of Records and Seal to the Supreme Lodge in session at Topeka, Kansas, and at Atlantic City, New Jersey, for the interest of the "Shocking Conditions" charges set forth in a resolution against the Supreme Grand Lodge in 1912, and largely circulated throughout the Supreme Jurisdiction, which resulted in the suspension of the Grand Lodge by the Supreme Lodge. A resolution was adopted empowering the Grand Chancellor and Supreme Lodge Relations with full power to adjust all differences now existing between the Supreme Lodge and the Grand Lodge, both fraternal and financial, to the intent and for the purpose of restoring the status which existed between them, the trouble resulting in the suspension, the degree Lodge degrees we offered upon 37 candidates.
SUPREME LODGE COMMISSION
Under authority of the above mentioned resolution the Grand Chancellor appointed the following Commission on Supreme Lodge Relations:
Wm. M. Reid, chairman, (Ex-officio) of Portsmouth; J. Thomas Hewin, of Richmond; H. C. Carr, of New York; John M. White, of Manassas; Rev. C. A. Ward, of Newport News, and W. H. Thoroughgood, of Norfolk.
Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green of New Orleans, Louisiana; Supreme Vice-Chancellor; S. R. Titlington, of Indiana, and Sir Lee Grawford, Grand Chancellor of York, realizing that a crisis was at hand in the affairs of the Grand Lodge of Virginia, were present during the first two days for such counsel as might be deemed necessary. Sir S. A. T. Watkins, Supreme Attorney of Goa, was also in attendance on the first day of meeting. These officiates had the courtesy of the floor and made encouraging addresses. The City of Lynchburg was selected as the place of meeting for next year.

EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION CLOSES SESSION
Women of Baptist General Association Hold 23rd Annual Meeting; Prominent Persons Address Session.
The Women's Missionary Educational Convention of the Virginia Baptist General Association held its twenty-third annual session in the First Baptist Church, Hampton, Va., Dr. J. W. Patterson, pastor, June 20-22.
A large delegation was present and a splendid meeting was had. By many this session was corrected in the organization. The spirit of the meeting was good and was admirable for its harmony and splendid fellowship.
The citizens of Hampton, both white and colored, vied with each other to make the stay of the visitors in the city pleasant.
The annual sermon was preached by Dr. G. W. Goode, of Danville. Special addresses were delivered by Dr. F. W. Williams, of Norfolk, presentation of the Virginia Association; Dr. A. Graham, corresponding secretary of the Lott-Carey Foreign Mission Convention and Miss Nannie Burroughs, of Washington, D. C. All of these addresses were splendid and showed much progress in all lines of the work of the association.
This body of Baptist women forms one of the strongest units in the denomination for the fostering of the church mission work. Yearly they raise a very considerable sum of money to be used for these purposes.
The election of officers resulted as follows: President, Mrs. M. R. Johnson, Richmond; vice-president, Mrs. Mary Goode, Danville; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Annie E. Read, Covington; recording secretary, Mrs. Ada E. Buford, Danville; statistician, Mrs. Ora A. B. Stokes, Richmond; treasurer, Mrs. Julia C. Patterson, Hampton. Richmond, Va., was chosen as the next place of meeting.
N.C. MUTUAL TO LOAN
UNIVERSITY $300,000
Wilberforce Has Arranged for Substantial Credit From Durham Company.
(By A. N. P.)
Wilberforce, Ohio, June 28—Wilberforce University has arranged for a loan of $300,000 from the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, a colored concern. When the school's officers learned that she needed financing to carry out their plans for expansion, they applied to the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which is said to be $33,000,000 worth of business with Negroes years ago that were unaccomplished C. C. Spalung, the new president expressed his satisfaction that his company, the largest colored organization in the world, could demonstrate its usefulness to the group which supports it.
Electric Lights Now At Oakwood Terrace
Oakwood Terrace and Lincoln Park, suburban divisions opened up for colored people in the early part of last year by Messrs. Bartlett and Sullivan, 8 Arcade, are now equipped with electric lights. Their promoters advertised tensively last year that every modern improvement would be placed on the property. Many people bought lots in the section upon this assertion. Their faith in these men's statements are apparently being justified, because not only was the invention of sidewalks fully completed, but 2,000 yards of sidewalk are under construction on the property. Water has been available there for sometime.
A very considerable portion of the property has been sold, altho Messrs. Bartlett and Sullivan state that there are yet a few choice lots left which are to be sold upon their same liberal terms.
The man who is able to look down and see the part of him capable of disappointment lying beneath him, is far more blessed than he who rejoices in the fulfilment of his desires. -George Macdonald.
NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 30, 1923
Plunges In River, Saves White Boy
Lewiston, Pa., June 27.—The heroic action of James Allen, a young colored man of 23, when plunging into the Juniata River, saved the life of little six year old James Bungardner, white, here last week. The rescue has roused among citizens generally the hope that he may be awarded a Carnegie medal.
The white lad, who had been playing in a boat on the river bank loosened it from its mooring and as the punt reached the center of the water where the wilt caught it, he fell overboard. Allen, a former Tech high school student, saw him from where he was a block away and running at top speed he plunged in with all his clothing on, catching the boy just as he was going down the third Eye witness commended Allen's splendid courage. Pressed the opinion that only by his splendid daring and prompt action could the boy's life have been saved.
MORE PLAYGROUND STREET SHOWERS
Recreational Facilities Planned for Colored Neighborhoods Says Dr. Schenck.
Concern for the welfare of children during the prevailing excessive warm weather prompted the JOURNAL AND GUIDE to inquire of the city officials as to what open air spaces-playgrounds are available to the colored children, and what is contentious of added playgrounds and parks. This inquiry revealed that the city's health bureau is manifesting a keen interest in more recreational centers for all the people of the city, and is especially desirous of expanding the meagre facilities of this kind now available to the colored citizens. It was learned, however, that the city only twelve playgrounds, one-third of which are allotted to colored children. These are at John J. Smallwood school, Lamberts Point, Miss Virginia Proctor, director; John H. Smythe school, Queen street, Miss Mabel Perry, director; John West school, Miss Ada Collins, director; John B. West school, Miss Ada Collins, school, Berkley park, Mrs. Roberts, enes, director. All of these directors are in the pay of the city.
FACILITIES INADQUATE
Dr. Schenck, health commissioner, stated that he is fully aware of the inadequacy of recreational centers in Norfolk and appreciates the great value to the health and morale of the city. It is a matter, he stated, which has always seriously engaged his attention in public health work, and with the continued co-operation of the other city officials his department will make advancement along that line that will be able to a city the size of Norfolk.
Street showers for children, which Dr. Schenck instituted with the advent of hot weather, will also be extended to the colored neighborhoods. One has already been opened at the Wakeeefe house. However, there are places that retard the expansion of the street shower idea. In the first place they must be located near a fire plue where water will be easily accessible; again, they should be where easily accessible to a large number of people on a paved street, where traffic can be suspended without any serious interruption to travel.
The commissioner is constantly on the lookout for such locations and will open shower centers there as soon as assured that the place can be used to an advantage. The commissioner is increased so as to be of benefit to the colored citizens, if the plans of Dr. Schenck are carried out.
SHADE TREE CENTERS
Mrs. Julia Bowes Judson is supervisor of playgrounds of the city of Norfolk, and she too, expressed an interest in the colored children in this respect. Mrs. Judson suggested as a fine idea and one which is practiced in large cities with but few parks. That mothers living on a shade tree establish a community on a small scale under that tree. A group of mothers with young babies may get together and place a few sand boxes and stools or camp chairs under the tree and make liberal use of the shade. It will materially benefit mother and baby, she stated. Sewing and reading may be done under the tree, thus keeping babies cool and allowing them to avoid loss of time to the mother. Mrs. Judson stated that she will be glad to discuss this matter further with any group of mothers or some women's clubs.
STATE MEDICOS SECURING RACE CLOSE ANNUAL PERSONNEL FOR MEET AT BEACH VETS' HOSPITAL

DR. DABNEY SUCCEEDS
DR. FRANCIS, PRESIDENT
Buckroe Beach, Va., June 28—The Old Dominion Medical Society has just ended its three day session at the famous Buckroe Beach Virginia resort. The attendance of nearly one hundred M. D's from all parts of the State was the largest ever registered. The scientific papers read by T. H. Amos, M. D., of Emporia; J. H. Robinson, M. D., Newport News; J. D. Williams, M. D., of Manassas, and the illustrated lecture by Jenneren specialized by folk artist, specializing in intestinal diseases, which conditions are especially prevalent during this season of the year, and which are also largely responsible for the high death rate among little children. The concensus of opinion was that scant clothing, plenty of fresh air, extreme care with the family physician will greatly assist in bringing this menace under control. Major Allen Washington, Dr. I. A. Jackson, Dr. D. W. Byrd and Dr. Alexander, secretary of the National Medical Association and member of New Jersey State Logistics, will be visiting the health meeting held in the beautiful new. Ogden Auditorium on the Hampton Institute grounds.

U. N. I. A. DIVISIONS PLAN CONVENTION
Resent Actions of Garvey in Turning Affairs of Organization Over to Wife.
New York, June 28—Resent the action of Marcus Garvey in turning over the organization to his wife, following his conviction in a Federal District Court on the charge of using the U. S. mails to defraud, the heads of U. N. I. A. and the theologian the country are taking steps to hold a conference among themselves in the very near future to consider the future of the organization. This conference will not be held in New York City. That is certain. The division heads consider Harlem a hot-bed of fanaticism and will censure it. The choice of place governs the conference, Detroit, Chicago and Indianapolis. It is reported on the highest authority that one of the main questions to be considered by this conference of division heads will be the calling of the regular annual convention this year in accordance with the Constitution, and that the instructions of Marcus Garvey, the instructions of Marcus Garvey, who early in February, this year, made the announcement that there would be no convention, until 1924, when it would sit in Liberia, West Africa.
Receives Verdict For $20,000
(By A. N. P.)
Atlanta, Ga, June 27.—What is believed to be the largest verdict awarded for the death of a colored person anywhere in the South, was handed down by a jury in the City of Atlanta on Thursday. Mrs. Mary Harper was the lucky person, and the verdict was for $20,000 damages against the Southern Railway Company for the death of her husband, who was killed in a railroad wreck last year. He was a mail clerk.
Hines' Letter to President Harding Reveals Genuine Efforts to Man Institution With Colored Doctors.
POLITICAL RADICALS
ARE REMAINING SILENT
Washington, D. C., June 28.—The "Powers that be" have spoken. The United States Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee is not only to be manned by colored physicians and nurses, but so vailantly have the professionals of the race responded to the call that General Frank T. Hines, director of the Veteran's Bureau, has written President Warren G. Harding officially that "We have been able to obtain practically sufficient colored personnel to man Tuskegee." General Hines full letter to President Hinton of the United States Veterans' Bureau, Washington, June 18. My dear Mr. President: "Knowing your interest in the matter of obtaining colored personnel for the hospital at Tuskegee, I feel sure that you will be glad to learn that through the efforts of the professional colored medical associations and the Civil Service Commission, we have been able to obtain practically sufficient colored personnel to man Tuskegee. At the present time a complete corps of colored nurses has been obtained, most of them having arrived at the hospital. "The Medical Division of this office is going to carefully the papers of doctors recommended for positions there, and we are interviewing those that will be in responsible position for us. I am sure that in the near future to be able to advise you that the hospital has been completely manned by colored personnel.
"We have necessarily had to progress slowly in the matter because I have always felt that it was your desire that we, under no circumstances, put colored personnel there on duty that did not have the professional attunements to throughhold the world feeling that the colored people desire, as we do, that the disabled colored veterans receive treatment equal to that of any of their comrades.
"I am giving you this information today because I have a feeling that a certain element, prompted by a desire to obtain positions for certain individuals that are not thoroughly identified, are attempting to hold the world application of statements that it is not the intention of the Bureau to man this hospital by a complete colored personnel, and I desire to reassure you that your wishes in this regard will be carried out explicitly. Respectfully, signed, Frank T. Hines, Director."
The above confirms the report said on to the Associated Negro Press, President Harding, rebuffed the white delegation from the town of Tuskegee, who called on him some time ago to protest the appointment of colored officials.
PRESIDENT KEeps HIS PROMISE
The President, who those close to him say has always recognized the simple justice of manning the hospital with race doctors, has lived up to his promises given early in his career, behind Dr. Moton, who with southern whites baiting him on one hand and misinformed colored people, especially in the North, accusing him of compromising on the other, has been in an unenviable position. It is thus, however, say his friends, that the colored man usually serves his benefactor. The spotlight has been turned, however, on odd practices indulged in by men who have assumed the "political leadership" of the race, and who have been indulged in the wheel, attempted to parcel out the jobs, irrespective of fitness and muddy the waters.
POLITICAL LEADERS ERR
Aside from the harm they have done in clouding the issue, their attitude in attempting to rebuild their fortunes and position on the hospital has been amusing.
In the meantime everything is serene on the Potomac and the Federal hand will doubtless quiet what unrest there is in white Tuskegee.

Baptist Women
Raised $5,144.60
Successful and Harmonius Session Closed on Sunday Night at Second Calvary.
Sunday, the Women's Baptist State Convention closed a more successful annual session, which began Tuesday at Second Calvary Baptist Church. The session was held humbly and with a great idea; service to missions and education, the object of this body of women, seeming to have full possession of the members.
Although, the money raised fell somewhat short of last year's report, which was nearly $7,000, $5,144.60 was realized. The field secretary, Mrs. M. E. Gordon, of Norfolk, reported for her work $802.50.
Sunday night, Rev. Allen, secretary of the State Educational Board, preached a very excellent sermon for the convention. Mrs. Tyrell, of Lynchburg, president of the convention, expressed sincere appreciation over the way the officers and members co-operated with her in putting over the year's program.
It was to the members raising the highest amount of money for the year were awarded as follows: R. H. Bowling, Sr., Memorial Circle of the First Baptist Church, Norfolk, Mrs. R. H.

SIX ELAINE RIOT CASE MEN ARE GIVEN FREEDOM
Contradiction of Orders Said to Have Caused the Release of Men Twice Sentenced to Die for Part in the Fight.
COURT FAILED TO BRING ABOUT A THIRD TRIAL
Little Rock, "Ark., June 28.—A marvellous intervention of fate, or probably through the efforts of some one whose conscience has burned them to a belated sense of an injustice done, six colored men, who were twice tried, convicted and sentenced to die by the Arkansas courts in connection with the Elaine riots of 1919, are today at liberty.
The men were released suddenly and unexpectedly as they stood knocking at the gates of the state penitentiary near here. It is said that a misunderstanding or contradiction of orders gained for them their freedom.
Sheriff A. L. Galloway, of Lee county, had brought them from the jail. Mariam on orders from Judge E. B. Robertson, of Lee County Circuit Court, he said. Warden Hamp Martin had no orders to receive them. They were set free.
SPED TO TOWN IN AUTO
SPEED TO TOWNS
"Recording the town's bewilderment the men sped to town in automobiles, where they were at liberty to spend the night as they pleased for the first time since three and a half years ago, when they were arrested and charged with complicity in the Elaine riots in ninety hundreds of colored and white families," an opinion of the Arkansas supreme court yesterday directed the dismissal of the case against the colored men on petition of defense council which asserted that two terms of court in Lee county, where their third trial had been set, had passed without their having been acquitted. And thus, the drama-tragedy that was enacted in Elaine, Arkansas in 1919 appears to be slowly, but surely spending its fury. Justice, always late, but inevitable, seems to be protruding upon the scene.
A few months ago the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its attorney, Moorefield Storey, succeeded in gaining from the United States Supreme Court a reversion of the courts of Arkansas in the case of these men who were languishing in the condition of complicity in that riot. The State failed to bring them to trial the third time.
It is given out that a misunderstanding of orders brought about the freedom of the six men. Maybe, but it is more than likely that some one in authority felt conscience-striken of the inhuman treatment and injustices from which these poor men were suffering and let slip a cog in the state machinery.
$15,000 FOR RACE SOLDIER MONUMENT
Illinois Legislature Appropriates Nucleus for Memorial to Fallen Sons of Color.
Chicago, Ill., June 27.—Governor Len Small signed the bill passed by the State Legislature appropriating $15,000 for a monument to colored soldiers killed in the World War II. Governor said it was the only bill for a monument he had signed this session. The memorable occasion took place in the Eighth regiment armory with a number of prominent colored citizens present. A plan was discussed whereby colored citizens would augment the monument, so that the monument may be one of the most striking on the boulevard. It is to be located at 35th and Grand Boulevard, in the heart of the colored district. Among those present were, Edward W. Wright, Secretary of State, as master of ceremonies; Col. Otis B. Duncan, Lt. Col. Stokes, Representatives; George Kusey, who introduced the bill; Adelbert Roberts, Shedwick B. Turner, Alderman Louis B. Anderson, Wm. R. Cowan, Morris B. Lewis, P. L. Grath, White M. Jordan, Chavis, Claude A. Barnett, Davis Carey, and Rev. H. Krystlew and Prof. Lewis, of Morehouse.

JOHN THE BAPSTIST
LUKE 3: 3:8; 7: 24:28
(May be used with Temperature Applications)
GOODEN TEXT—Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; For he hath visited and wrought redemption for his people, Luke 1: 58.
Lk. 3: 3-6.
It is one of the ways of God in the order of history to grant forewarnings of grievance. The predecessors anger-
stition that such things as meteors or earthquakes are the heralds of mighty happenings itu makes us mistaken application of seavens' great principle of forerunning. In the storms storms and also we have the foreurners of the beauty of sum
as meteors or earthquakes are the heralds of mighty happenings in history, is nothing but a mistaken application of seventh's great principle of forewarning the stormy gluts and also sweeping rains of Marca we have the forerunners of the beauty of summer. In illness and sorrow and the open graves have changed and useful lives. Before the full sunshine of the Reformation there was the dawn in Wychliff and his "poor preachers." So John was the great forerunner of Jesus. It was from their lethargy, He touched the national conscience by his preaching. He made men eager, expectant, open-eyed. In the far-reaching words of his great namenake he was sent "to bear witness of the Light, that all men in the night believe." Jn. 1: 1. M. Morrison.
John Baptist's theme was baptism of repentance unto remission of sins. This wilderness preacher of Elijah type preached in the region round about the Jordan. John was simply a voice crying in the Lord, "Come, come, come to the Lord, Make his path straight, for all flesh shall see the salvation of God." Vs. 4. 6.
"Today the Christian has greater work to do then the church ever before had the opportunity of doing social patriotic, reform, missionary, and evangelical tasks of supreme interest in every Christian to undertake then in the spirit and power of Elijah and John the Baptist. Let us each of us leap to the call."
2. John Baptist rebukes the Multitude which came out to his preaching. Lk. 3: 7. 8. Mt. 3: 5-10. He was no noly tongue preacher he was no n酵ophon. He was a servant of Jehovah, true and bold: he spoke the truth as Jehovah gave him to know the truth. A whole preacher, because he preached the whole gospel. He had a strain-forward heart-searching gospel for the centred-parented and worldly Sad-
"The character of John the Baptist, Steen, wild and passionate, shaggy with his camels hair garb, sunburned, unkempt and unshorn, no reed shaken by John the Baptist, the prophet wounded wrench. "John's mind was lice his shaggy garment and his food-unusual, simple primitive. His thoughts passed through no medium of public opinion that then turned them down to words conventionally correctly pronounced, him as they came to him, immature and unsoftened by any thought of politeness or propriety."
Jesus said that. "Among those born of earth there is none greater than John." "He was a burning and a shining light." Jn. 5: 35.
"Great men are God's best gifts to nations, and the world's greatest men are discoverers of the ideal and the prophets of God. Prophets like Isaiah and John the Baptist are the pioneers who lead the advance in morals and religion do more for mankind than

GOD OUR FATHER
In this manner therefore, pray ye "Our Father." Matt. 6: 9.
Men did no know God until Jesus came. They thought of Him as being all wise, all powerful and everywhere present, but such a God repelled rather than attracted them. Being conscious of sin, they could not help but stand in awe of a God, who possessed all those presences they could not escape. It was utterly impossible to love a God like that.
Jesus came and revealed this same god in a way to make Him attract and not repell men. He showed the omnipotent, omnine and omnipresent God to be a God who loved sinful men so much that He made him His son—joint heir with him. He made Him the most university of his as privileged to address God as our Father. We need have no mental reservation in doing so because the relation is not an assumption on our part, but a voluntary gift of God. See what wonderful benefits are our because the self-efficient, great Causes, which between himself and rebellious man which entitles us to call Him "Our Father."
I. If we think of God as a father we do not have to understand great mysteries to know him. A self-existent, all-powerful, all-knowing and everywhere present God is too mysterious for us to understand. His father is easily understood and loved. Anyone who can understand the final relation between father and child. If more of us would think of ourselves as God's children, there would be fewer knows just how close we are to God. people making had history. Could a man for us is because of love for us. If we think of God as a father we would relate him. in a hurried way to even the weakest and humblest being, if we were thinking of God as his father? No a thousand times. People who think of themselves as children of God are so proud of the relationship that they try to think, that they try to believe that their life will reflect credit on Him. Therefore, knowing God as a Father is an constant incentive to live one's best.
11. We do not have to make Him love us. Do we have to make our earthly all others: and among the greatest prophets of this Higher Humanity Jesus ranked John the Baptist."
John Baptist died for the truth—he who would be a martyr, must live for this truth. new life is the lost and most sublime "Martin, Luther."
To Sail For Sweden
4
Rev. F. W. Williams, D. D., pastor of Queen Street Baptist Church and president of the Virginia Baptist General Association, left the city this week to attend the convention at Bristol Va., of the baptist wing of which he is the head. At the close of the session in Bristol Williams will depart for New York, from where he will sail for Stockholm, Sweden to attend the World's Baptist Alliance which is soon to convene in that country.
The significance of the World's Baptist Alliance is just what is implied in its name. Baptists from all parts of the world gather at its sessions to discuss and exchange views on denominational policy. It is generally a coveted honor to be an attendant at these gatherings, and likewise a honor upon the city that has a representative sitting at the sessions.

fathers love us? Of course not. The reason our mothers toll, sacrifice and pray for us in because of cause is love. If earthyathers love their children without being induced or persuaded to do so, how much more does God love us without inducement of us? That He has, He has for us We are told in the Bible that "the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof." Everything *His* His by creative right. If we are His children we are heirs to all that belongs to Him. Therefore we are the children of God for the things we need. Too many people believe it is all right to pray for soul needs, but not for bodily necessities. If we trust Him, God will supply all our physical as well as spiritual needs. Verily all that He has, He has for us. If all that He is, He is for us, God has all power. We as His children are no weaker, if we lean on them, than the Everlasting Arms. No enemy is strong enough to harm those who trust Him. God knows all things. If He is our father, how comforting is God thought. If He is our father, God knows just how strong was the temptation.
God is everywhere. 'Oh how joyous the thought that my Father is everywhere! If I am weak. He is there to give strength to me. He is there to give strength in the dark. He is my light; if fees saill and friends forake, My Father is present to protect.
Negroes thinking of God as their Father, should be optimists indeed. He will take care of His own. Make sure that he is very own them. 'Smile at Satan's sage.' God will make for us friends from among those who oppress.
If you could have attended the Oklahoma State game, would you have some weeks ago, you would agree with me on that point: White men and white women, representing the best of their race in intellect, morals and religion, took a stand on the race question, as generous and as brave as they were. They pledged themselves to get behind the interracial program with all the force at their command. Let us rejoice in the fact that all God is in the perseverance of children; and that, thank God, includes the eben-hood sons and daughters of Ham.

Many believe the great athlete,

he not won the greatest traci hon-
or and ineidently the sreatest ath-
letic honor in the college world?
IL he should he would be the first
athlete from Washington and Jef-
ferson to achieve this honor. If he
should win this event next year
his position on the team would he
cinched. Many think he should
improve, his work in the quarter
mile and diseus throw.
However, he steps the 440 in 49
seconds and that is not slow by any
means. And besides, ho got second
with only Helffrich head of him.
AL the beginning of the race he
was ninth while Helfrich shot in-
to the insite track. Getting, see-
ond place in 49 seconds and. hav-
ing to go around the field is ne
small matter, We wonder what
hig. time would have been if he had

He made Hellfrich and Erick

New York, N. Y., June 25—The Reverend John Hamilton Reed, D. D., formerly Assistant* Consul General, for the United States in Liberia, and for ten years President of the United States, returned with Mrs. Reed to this country after a residence of eighteen years in the Negro Republic. Dr. and Mrs. Reed went to Liberia in 1906 as missionaries under the Board of Foreign Mission, the United States Church and have continued their service in this capacity throughout their sojourn there. At different times Dr. Reed served as District Superintendent of the Monrovia District, Editor of the Liberian Association, president of the college of West Africa, Vice Consul-General for the United States, and has been ministerial delegate to the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, meeting in Liberia in 1912, 1916 and 1920.

The tribes of native folk in the hinterland of Liberia are exceptionally fine types both physically and culturally, fine reed that Reed has lived among them.

*Princess Anne*, Md., Junio 28—*No amount of power, skill, cleverness, knowledge, or culture will carve a man successfully through life, if he is not a princess.* Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, who delivered the recent commencement address at *Princess Anne*: Academy, of H. O. Spencer is the president and T. H.-Kinh is the principal.
"If a man is out for himself," said Dr. Gregg, "unscrupulous, fundamentally selfish, his neighbors soon find it out. Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt trusted by the people. The object of education is to make men and trustworthiness. Such men and women are the truest assets of a community."

DR. DIXON AT WILSON
Wilson, N. C.—Evangelist Calvin P. Dixon, F.L.—Bell Bly-Sunday” arrived in the town today from Newport News, Va., to conduct evangelistic sermons in John A. M. E. Zion Church. He was night from the 68th chapter of the New York ject, “The Need of a Savoy.” He said the reason why our churches are spiritually dead is because they are by hypocrisy and not by Christism. You are hiding behind a hypocrisy longer than the person behind whom you hide. “Hypocrisy in the church out of the church are on the way. If you don't want to spend eternity, you had better become a Christian, and meet the evangelist closed — meeting in greville where he had 800 convictions. The white and colored women were prepared a tobacco warehouse meeting, seating six thousand people, revel was under the auspices of M. E. Zion Church.
tribes on the coast south of Monrovia are also fine specimens and are the most earnest seekers after the many earnest owing to the long effort of Walter B. Williams, Liberia's "Little Giant," who has built a large community there. There are more Kikuyu schools of the country, than of any other tribe. The Grego tribe above Cape Palmats are the most progressives and aggressive people of Liberia, in Liberia, according to Dr. Reed.
It was from this tribe that Miss Diana McNeil sprung. Miss McNeil was adopted by a Methodist missionary to Liberia twenty-five years later, the famous shop William Taylor, the famous denomination, brought her to this country at the age of four and presented her to the General Conference of 1886, declaring that she would save by environment and circumstances, a saying now a classic in missionary circles the world over. Miss McNeil, became a prodigy in missionary circles at St. Louis, and Kendall City, later graduating with highest honors from the University of Southern California. She joined the faculty of Philander Smith College, Arkansas, and graduated from the University of Southern California. She joined the faculty of Philander Smith College, Arkansas, as a member of the faculty of the College of West Africa. But the climate of her native land was too much for her health, and she returned to this country and was prominent in educational circles.
The Reverend Dr. Reed, expects to retire from active educational work and will enter the pastorate in some section where Methodism is exerting itself for the welfare of the Negro race.

nighted or wanting in the essentials of orderly government. Mob violence defies all law, despises all government, and tramples into the dusty every human right. Mob violence in the South, in its beginning, most often occurred against individuals who attacked upon the sanctity of womanhood. Like all cancerous evils it has spread. It is now practiced for other offences, against the realms of race. But if the evil had remained or should be confined to the realm in which it began it is not to be tolerated by Christians or by intelligent patriotic citizens."
The resolution of the Methodist Mission Board came up in connection with a recent lynching, and as follows are resolved: That a message of commendation and approval be sent Circuit Judge, Walker for his fearless and righteous exposition of the horrific crime of the murder at Fayette, Missouri, the time of investigation of a recent act of mob violence committed at Columbia, Missouri, and that, in the course of our sorrow over the crime of brutal murder by mobs so frequently occurring, throut our beloved land, not only because of the unrighteousness of such the defiance of the man, but also the defiance upon our Christianity in the eyes of pagan people."
PASTOR AND MEMBERS FICHT AT COMMUNION SERVICES
Old-Time Colleague of Harding Received at the White House for Conference.
Washington, D. C., June 25-Hot Hair. C. Smith, editor of the Cleveland Gazette, was in the capitol recently, where he had a conference with President Harding just before the Executive left on it. It will be recalled that editor Smith led the fight for candidate Harding in Ohio as far as the colored voters were concerned. He was one of the first prominent men who the race to ally himself with the Democratic Party came early days. This, because the President, U. S. S. Senator B. F. Willis and Mr. Smith were colleagues in the Ohio assembly in 1900 and 1901 and were friends, not mere acquaintances, states Mr. Smith. He was also a friend to heart talk with the Chief Executive that is bound to help the first citizen of the country and the race; and gave out the statement that the most important questions concerning the race were thorny for him and that he left the White House greatly pleased indeed.

NOTHING TO DO BUT
BEDEVIL THE NEGROES
We Will Keep This Twiddy Until He Gives Us a Race Riot
From Elizabeth City (N. C.) Independent Elizabeth City, N. C. — A squad of four policemen, headed by the man-killer George Twiddy, finding nothing else to do; raided the home of Cynthia. Seth Saturday and made a thorny search of the place without a warrant, while Cynthia told the police claimed to be looking for a negro man whose jealous sweet-heart said the man would be found in Cynthia's house with another woman. The police found no man in Cynthia's house.
There isn't a harder working man, home alone, or more respected color man than Cynthia Smith. She works from early morn until night; and can be seen any morning at daybreak with her pail and mop cleaning the floors of banks, stores and offices down town. It was while she was mopping floors in a down street that the police invaded the privacy of her home without a warrant.
It is this wanton disregard of colored people's rights by ignorant, unsocial policemen that creates much bad feeling among the police of small towns generally. The police of small towns generally sense of justice in such cases and, too often, no sense at all. It is policemen of the Twiddy type who persecute and heedvil innocent and inoffensive Negroes until some day, an unungrated moment, they tack them over a Negro's shoulder. Then some one wants to lynch a Negro. But your Alderman will keep this man Twiddy on your police force when you work up a race riot. If he is retaliated for any other purpose, that purpose is not in evidence.

He added that the average price of $19,000,000 in 1921 and $40,000 in 1922.
Director Hutcheson stated that Virginia and Alabama are spending more money on Negro extension work than any other States. In his judgment, Negro farmers of Virginia are doing good work and are getting results from the money which is being spent 16 help them. He stated to these farmers that they must learn new methods of
producing, and handing crops, that they must pay for their educational experience; that they must spend every effort, to make crops of the best quality; and that they must fertilize a fertile Soil Source of Wealth. That all economic production of farm crops depends on a fertile soil, and that soil fertility may be increased throughout, Virginia by the green manure crops, fertilizers, and fertilizer were opinions expressed by W. P Moore of Blacksburg, Va. State assistant extension director, who declared that the county agents throughout Virginia could do not fertilize each soil fertility.

not including city property. He declared that colored farmers of
Virginia, have won the respect of
them, and have supported their farms successfully and
by organizing community clubs and
school improvement leagues which
have been real assets. "We must
teach Negro boys and girls that
the migration must be stopped,
and their families must be
mondens. Already 10,000 Negroes
have left Virginia. We must tell
young colored men to settle down
and keep their feet on the soil. "
If that the Negro wants to
the white people, indeed they are now some 65,000 Negro
children in Virginia out of a school
population of 245,000, who are not
in school. We must build good local
schools and have good teachers,
and provide for the education of our children.
The county agents are agricultural preachers and community builders.
There are now about 10,000 Negro boys and girls in Virginia.
We have have helped by their parents. We have helped by their

the migration of thousands of farms from the southern states, laying the spring months of 1923, decreased grave economic probabilities in certain sections of the country. Strawberry crops; worth millions of dollars have laid on the unplucked; cotton is fast dinging with sufficient bonds spick it, and the approaching harvests bid fair to meet the doom. Serious minded south white men have repeatedly conferences and tried to each the underlying cause of such spread migration. A negatively, however, is as much more so, a positive over. We have made a strong story of opportunities and limitations under which Negro land carried on in a city from the migration has been practically negligible. We believe that an answer to these facts will pre-anticipate that no foster migrati in nails as a forceful reply to those to unmollisify accuse the South not presenting fair economic opportunities to its Negro popula-
Durham Our Model
the city which we have chosen Durham, North Carolina. Here primarily 8,000 Negroes live in peacefully relationship with their neighbors, enjoying splendid monic opportunities.
The tobacco factories, hosiery and building trades, as well as farm industries employ Negroes in important positions. More than one thousand colored men and women are employed by the tobacco factories in Durham. They enjoy various positions from members of tobacco to operators machines, which perform some the technical processes of the business.
Unstable Negro Population Migrate
While a few hundred Negroes left Durham, the number is actively small when compared to the exodus from other cities North Carolina and especially compared with the migrants from cities in other southern cities. Moreover, the city has not its steadily Negro working units. Most of those who have to constitute the floating population that usually changes locations in the spring of each year, upon whom industry cannot end for regular hours of labor in any season.
Hosiery Mills Offer Unique
Opportunity
The tobacco factories do not offer a more striking economicunity than the hosiery mills of Durham, owned and managed by a well known Carr family of Durham. General Carr, a confederate veteran,'who once owned hives, has never lost his interest colored people. He shows it in the words in a larger way than eating occasional gifts to the widow of his former slaves. He built hosiery mills in which he built hundred colored hands are employed in Durham. Of these mills is named for Colonel John, Man O'Daniel, who lived General in four love doats. It was in appreciation of services which had enlarged General Carr's faith in the Negro as the first colored hosiery mills the United States to be operated in Negroes were erected by the Arts.
The Negro hands perform every process in the knitting of certain threads of stocking from the toping to the final inspection. They create all the machines in the mill which they work and turn out finished product, pack for payment. This is an opening self-servanted colored people in the south of the south. Such opportunities for work are the foremost reason for negroes not migrating to Durham. Building Trades Employ Many In addition to these well established industries which offer steady work under pleasant, healthful, additions to two thousand cities of Durham, we have the building trades that employ Negroes as bricklayers, plasterers, painters. The Negro brickers are members of the white lions and work side by side with white men. Negro Enterprises Helpful We have in Durham the positions created by the thrift of Negro enterprises such as the
North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, the largest Negro life insurance company in the world; the Banker's Fire Insurance Company, the only fire insurance company owned and operated by Negroes, the Mechanics and Farmers Bank the largest Negro bank in the state, and the Royal Knight of King David, one of the leading Negro fraternal orders in the United States.
Why Negroes Do Not Migrate
From Durham
The general spirit of Durham is full of friendliness as well as an earnest desire to make the Negro population a part of its citizenry. The vote is never denied because of color. Splendid educational and social opportunities are provided for Negroes. There has never been a lynching in our fair city and the vote is green an honest hearing in the courts. If the same conditions that exist in Durham were found in all southern towns, there would be no cause for Negro migration, and we venture to predict on migrating in such numbers as is now being witnessed in many southern communities.

Negro Opportunity in Alabama~
‘The regrettable controversy ovér the ap
pointment of a staff to operate’ the hospita
for disabled colored veterans at Tuskegee, Al
abama, is a decided embarrassment to, South
erners, white and eolored alike, who have bec
taking the position that despite certain eco
nomic limitations and evil disabilities. the
South is the best place for the Negro race in
‘America to take a permanent stand for devel
opment and p long: all Lines, which
ake for» eateatery status a elizens
The attitude of the governor of Alabama,
the senators of that State, and others, wii are
insisting that Negro physicians and mutses
shall not be included in the staff, and. that
there rust be\ a wholly white staff is in
strange paradox to the established polley of
eomplete racial sogregation in the South. Tt
exposes the Negro race in the Soath to an tn-
jexpected hindrance to development, within the
bounds of its distinctly separate soeiel and
educational sphere. ‘The plan to operate the
hospital with a colored staff is certainly in
Une with the South’s own poliy of solving the
race problein by building up e separate Negro
social ‘order. If, as Governor Brandon of
Alabama says, to man the hospital with Ne-
groes will “be' detrimental to the Negro race
fn the South,” st becomes a question why Ala-
bam has permitted Tuskegee Institute itself,
and its own largest educational institutions
for Negroes to be manned by members of the
race.
There is no sound argument to support the
contention of Governor Brandon and his group
objectors, and ft will be exceedingly unfor-
inate for the race as well as for the South if
his senseless row, based apparently upon 0:

Marcus Garvey has beon convicted in th
Federal Court, at New York, of ising th
mails to defraud. He was arraigned on cigh!
counts; three counts were dismissed and he
was convicted on one of the remaining five
‘The Government’s attorney asked for the max:
imum sentence, and the Court, on Thursday
June 21, imposed @ sentence of five years in
prison and to pay a fine of $1,000.00.
The trial was replete with vensationa
feutures. In| the beginning, Mr. Garvey, by
his’ attorney, challenged the fairness of Judge
Mack, and asked that he should not ‘hear the
ease, as ‘he was affiliated with the: Nationa)
Assotiation for the Advancement of Colored
People, but the request was denied Mr. Gar-
vey annouNeed then that he would conduct his
own ease, During the twenty-seven days of
the'trial he acted as his lawyer, and ‘the ree-
ord shows that he did so with unusual vigor
and intelligence; but he made taany mistakes,
which prejudiced his case. .
Ta a statement issued from the “Tombs
prison he says that the ease against him was
a ““framo up,’-and that ke will “go on a hun-
gor strike as a protest against white injustice
and prejudice,” although he admits that Judge
Mack was fair in his rulings during the trial.
In concluding his statement he says: “My
work is just begun, and, as I lay down my
life for the cause of my people, so do T feet
that succeeding gonerations hall be inspired
by the sacrifices I made for the rehabilitation
of our race. «Christ died to make mon free;
‘shall die to give courage and inspiration to
my race.” In thesq sentencés ‘Mr. Garvey. re~
veals “himself as among the mystic fanatics |
who have had infinite belief in themselves. and
n their works and have not hesitated to die
for their cause. Garvey is that sort, of a fa-
aatic, like Mahandhis -K, Gandhi,.that other
ne, who is languishing in an East Indian
rison for preaching the doctrines of non-co-|
peration with the British rulers of India.
‘Like most, fanaties, Mr. Garvey was de-
cient in selecting the people whom'he had to
rust in his work, and he was deficient also-in
usiness ability. He was honest enough in
is way, but spent a million dollars fot un-|
eavorthy ships because he did not know bet-|
r and was Tot advised wisely: But all other |
arts of his business of the parent Usiversal |
egro Improvement Asséation are conduct-|
| with like disregard of business ethics’as the |
lack Star Line was. But he had the.quality |
inspiring others in his work and organized | §
illions of his race for.the redemption of Af-|
