We rally to both state and national calls like men, We have sons now in the training camps, No doubt they will soon cross the ocean to fight and dle for this country, What more can anyone do than lay down his life for his friends? Yet we are denied the right to vote our own free sentiments. Your honor, is that freedom?

My Dear Brother-I am writing a few of the leading men of the Fifth district, as it may be that they do not know the exact status of the Western Christian Recorder. Now this is the situation: At the meeting of the Bishops' Council in Louisville, Ky., I was decided upon as editor and manager of The Western Christian Recorder, contingent upon its continuance. The financial condition of the paper is in such a terrible state that there is some uncertainty of its continuance. Bishops Ross, Parks and Coppin were appointed a committee to meet in Kansas City, in April, perhaps, and thoroughly investigate conditions, and if they find it possible to continue the paper they are to put me in charge. The liabilities of the Western Recorder are as follows, as nearly as could be ascertained: Now, you must see that if the paper is allowed to suspend it will be many a year before another one could be established in the West. The West really needs the paper, and, since the general conference of 1920 will meet in St. Louis, it will need it more particularly. If I get the paper, my aim will be to establish in Kansas City a regular office and A. M. E. Book Depository, which would be of great convenience to our churches and add much to the prestige and income of the church. Now, my opinion is, that if the strong men of the West will get behind this thing and some of them will meet the committee of bishops, we will be able to keep the Western Recorder in operation. If you will stand behind Bishop Parks, I believe he can keep the paper for us. Think these things over, and let us join forces, and the Western Recorder will not be suspended. J. D. BARKSDALE.

Joseph Curry was born in Urkana, Ohio, June 7, 1861 and died in Herton, Kan., Feb. 12, 1918. He was 54 years, 8 months and 5 days old. He was united in holy matrimony to Miss Florence Wheeler in 1891, by his father, the Rev Win Wheeler in Elater, Salire county, Missouri. He professed a hope in Christ many years are in Ottawa Kan., under the pastorate of the Rev John Turne. He was until his death a member of St John A. M. 12 church of Tomaka Kan., of which the Rev Peck is the pastor. He was taken to his bed on the 5th of February and died on the 12th at 7 a.m. He was a constant reader of the Bible, always trying to learn more about Jesus. He was willing and ready to go. He was a member of Cyrene Commandery, Knights Temple, and of Mt Moriah Lodge of the Masonic fraternity of Tomaka. He was a devoted Christian and believed in unity and standing together. In the presence of his wife, Bro. Bailey, Mr. vaughn, his nurse, Major Wim Clay, his worshipful master, and five other Knights he departed this life very easy—just slept away in the full triumph of faith. He leaves behind a loving and faithful mother, a devoted wife, four brothers, other relatives and a host of friends. One of his favorite songs was, "To the Old Time Religion." Though a pilgrim I have wandered In the valley here. Now under the blessed homeland I am drawing near, Soon will the scenes of sorrow I will come to ram I will come to foam, Angels, get my invitation ready. I am coming home Card of Thanks We desire to think the lodge and friends of Horton, Kao, who render our assistance during the illness and after the death of Joseph H. Curry also for the beautiful floral offerings from Mt. Morlah No. 5 and the Steward Board of St. John A. M. M. church — (Signed) Mrs. P. R. Curry (wife), Mrs H. B. Scott, Mr. T J Wheeler, Mrs. M.

This community was grieved Monday when it was learned that Mrs. Anna Noble had passed away at her home, 1317 Chandler street, after an illness of only two days duration. She was one of the best liked women in the city—kind, loving, and a splendid neighbor. She was thrifty and enterprising, never finding time for frivolous pleasures, and, through her individual efforts to work and save, was comfortably supplied with this worldly goods. She was a faithful, conscientious Christian, having embraced the religion of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ when a mere child and adhered strictly to its teachings until the end. The deceased was born in Abbeyville county, South Carolina, in 1666, and came to Kansas in 1901. Her friends were legion among the people of both races, who comfortably filled the church to pay her a last tribute of respect. She is survived by a son, Mr. Nick Wright, and a brother, Mr. Nick Chiles, and numerous other relatives. Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon from the Third Baptist church, of which she was a member, conducted by Rev. W. W. Lwong of Atchison, assisted by the pastor, Rev Jefferson. The floral offerings were profuse and beautiful, a testimonial of the high esteem in which she was held. Interment was in Mt. Auburn cemetery. Peace to her ashes. JETMORE, KAN.

Firm in our belief that the house of the Lord is no place to give shows, or "entertainments" as some term them, we yielded to the "influence of friends, and for the first time in our career, transgressed a cherished belief and took the church for a joke shop by attending a mock trial at the Shiloh Baptist church last Friday night. The affair was staged by law students from the University of Kansas and Washburn college. It furnished much amusement and showed that the race has four good lawyers in the making. They are bright, keen young men and those who have witnessed legal giants in a contest say that it was just like the real sure enough legal battle. The case of State v. John Hardup and Sally Queen, charged with murder, furnished the bone of contention. Mr. William Bradshaw and Mr. Le Roy Harris, Washburn, represented the prosecution while Mr. William D. Harrison and Mr. C. L. Jones, Kansas University, defended. Mr. T. W Hueber, L. L.'D of Washburn law school was the presiding judge. The arguments on both sides were strong and allly presented; so much so that the jurors became "befuddled," and could not reach an agreement. A large audience witnessed the affair, and if demonstrations count for anything, all enjoyed it. REV. JOS HILL MAKING GOOD. Former Topeka Pastor Center of Attraction in Hot Springs.
