The Copeka Plaindealer The Request for Colored Soldiers to Accept Segregation is Not in Keeping With the Democracy They're Fighting For Twentleth Year. No. 10. BULLETIN AT FUNSTON BLACKS TO YIELD TO THE REQUEST IS COWARDLY A THE CAUSE FOR WHICH TH Major General Ballou in the 92d Division---W States Army Stand Kind of Demo BULLETIN AT FUNSTON REQUEST BLACKS TO YIELD TO SEGREGATION THE REQUEST IS COWARDLY AND A DISGRACE TO THE CAUSE FOR WHICH THEY ARE FIGHTING Major General Ballou is Commanding the 92d Division---Will the United States Army Stand for This Kind of Democracy? The Request for Colore We are in receipt of a bulletin reported to have been issued by some of the officers of the 92d Division at Camp Funston March 28, 1918, known as Bulletin No. 35, purported to be signed by some of the commanding officers of this division, which speaks for itself. We are surprised to know that there is a commanding officer in the army who would issue such a bulletin to the men in his command who are preparing to go over the seas to defend the honor of this country against kalsernam. This is an insult not only to the colored citizens of this country but to the entire American people of all races. It is a disgrace that such bulletins should be issued to these men simply because they attended a theater or other places of amusement on the grounds of Camp Funston or anywhere in the surrounding community. This is all the privileges and enjoyment these boys have, and for one of their superior officers to issue such an order is, we repeat, a disgrace, a shame and inhuman. In Paragraph 1 of the bulletin the colored officers are told that in order to be useful they must how to the beheats and become humble to prejudiced white men who are performing the same military duties and are under the same orders of this government. It is not the colored officers who are raising the color question; it is the prejudiced white men, and this first paragraph of the bulletin should be directed to white officers instead of colored, informing them that colored people should be treated as citizens and soldiers and not as serfs. Paragraph No. 2 says that in order to avoid conflict the colored men should refrain from going where their presence will be resented. It is admitted that this sergeant was strictly within his rights, then why should Paragraph No. 2 apply to the colored regiment? This sergeant was acting within his full rights and as a perfect gentleman and attending to his own business and paid his money to attend this theater, but there are some prejudiced southern white who do not even want to be buried in the same cemetery with colored people, let alone to fight on the same battle ground with them, yet these colored men are told that they are inferior and must accept whatever white men give them without any protest. Race discrimination comes from the white and not from the colored man, therefore Paragraph No. 2 should have been directed to the white soldiers of the 89th Division, and the white officers imploring them to treat colored soldiers fairly and honorably, as they will go over the seas to fight for the same cause the whites are going for, and the sooner every man in this country is made to respect the rights of this government, irrespective of color or condition, the better off everybody will be. In Paragraph No. 2 the implication here is that as long as colored men conduct themselves according to the orders and wishes of the white men and white soldiers and officers they will be treated as colored men, but not as soldiers. Because the public is nine-tenth white is no reason why white men should expect any better treatment than colored men who are sent to the camp for the same cause. Now as white men making this division and white men breaking it, is erroneous, and the statement is made to cow and override the ambitions and manhood of the colored soldier, because the white men are in the majority. We want to say to the commanding officers that had it been left to a large number of southern white men and copper-heads in the North and West, there would have been no colored soldiers or officers, but the level-headed men of this country, seeing their danger ahead and knowing the valor and bravery and honesty of colored men in battle, which has been demonstrated in all the wars of this country from early history until now, they realized they could not do without the colored man and had to take him. There is no way to stop the colored soldier from going over the seas to fight for his country, and no attempt will be made. The colored man had to fight to get into this war by the assistance of the loyal Christian white men who know the worth of the colored soldier. Now he is told by some of the white officers that if he does not bow, grenade, and serge to some prejudiced whites, he will be forced out of the army. This is nothing more than a threat. Partnerpath No. 4 should have been addressed to the whole encampment at Funaton, for if everybody were made to live up to the rules and regulations of the army there would be no need of invasions. The personal pride and gratification, of our soldier is not above another, and all should enjoy the same rights and benefits, and it is the duty of the commanding officers to invoke this bulletin. We are surprised at commanding officers issuing such bulletins to these brave men whom they will have under their command in Europe. We are informed that in Ohio the places of public comfort such as the theaters and restaurants attempted to draw the color line on soldiers, and that the commanding officers of this cantonment issued a bulletin and had their men to visit the theaters and other places of amusement and found that the color line was drawn, and in twenty-four hours these managers of these places of amusement were given to understand that if any discrimination was made toward the soldiers their places would be closed. Now the boys in Ohio are enjoying all the rights and benefits accorded any other soldier. If the government can intern prostitutes and aliens and bar saloons five and ten miles from soldier encampments, we do not see why it can not compel keepers of restaurants and other public places and white soldiers to respect the rights of colored soldiers. A soldier is a soldier, and when he measures up to all the requirements of the army, there should be no restrictions put upon him. We hope that if this order has been issued the commanding officer will rescind it and send a general order to all soldiers to respect the rights of each other, and that all public places of amusement be open to all soldiers. The colored man demands no more or less than his personal rights, and it is the duty of the officers to see that they are respected. We hope the commanding officer will see his way clear to follow in the footsteps of the lowly Nazarene and assist his brother in black to come into full possession of all his rights and benefits which his white brother already enjoys. Headquarters Ninety-Second Division Camp Funston, Kansas, Mar. 28, 1918 BULLETIN NO. 35. 1. It should be well known to all colored officers and men that no useful purpose is served by such acts as will cause the "color question" to be raised. It is not a question of legal rights, but a question of policy, and any policy that tends to bring about a conflict of races, with its resulting animosities, is prejudicial to the military interest of the 92nd Division, and therefore prejudicial to an important interest of the colored race. 2. To avoid such conflicts the Division Commander has repeatedly urged all colored members of his command and especially officers and non-comissioned officers, should refrain from going where there presence will be represented. In spite if this injunction one of the sergeants of the Medical Department has repeatedly precipitated the precise trouble that should be avoided, and then called on the Division Commander to take sides in a row that should never have occurred, and would not have occurred had the Sergeant placed the general good above his personal pleasure and convenience. This Sergeant entered a theatre, as he undoubtedly had a legal right to do, and precipitated trouble by making it possible to allege race discrimination in the seat he was given. He is strictly within his legal rights in this matter, and the theatre is legally wrong. Nevertheless the Sergeant is guilty of the greater wrong in doing anything, no matter how legally correct, that will provoke race animosity. 3. The Division Commander repeats that the success of the Division, with all that success implies, is dependent upon the good will of the public. That public is nine-tenths white. White men made the Division, and they can break it just as easily if it becomes a trouble maker. 4. All concerned are again enjoined to place the general interest of the Division above the personal pride and gratification. Avoid every situation that can give rise to racial ill-will. Attend quietly and faithfully to your duties, and don't go where your presence is not desired. 5. Th.s will be read before all organizations of the 92nd Division. By command of Maj. Gen Ballou. VILEN GRDER, Lieutenant-Colonel. U. S. A. Chief-of-Staff. The following letter has been sent to Senator Charles: TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING APRIL 12, 1918 Topeka, Kans, April 9, 1918. Hon. Charles Curtis, U. S. Senator, Washington, D. C. My Dear Senator: Find enclosed a copy of a bulletin reported to have been issued by one of the commanding officers at Camp Funston, which explains itself. in terms that will carry conviction. Frankly, I merely acted in accord with the deepest and most sincere promptings of my conscience. When I tell you that I am a southern woman, a Clemmons of Clemmonsville, N. C., you will understand that I have no theories of race equality to exploit. highly stand w pertainl race. O in payl and we good explain the Pla Now, my dear Senator, we want to call your attention to the fact that there is no law upon the statute books compelling these restaurants to serve these colored soldiers. There is such a law that applies to the Hawaiian Islands and some other possessions of the United States, but in the confines of this territory there is no law against such criminal acts of discrimination. Some time ago we called upon you with reference to this fact, and you spoke as though there were some law governing the same, but you will from the statute books that my contentions in high Colored men are loyal and no hackers are fight for their country and are fighting, and there is no reason why they should be discriminated against as they are. Below is an article which tells of the stand taken by Mrs. Howard Gould at the recent election of Rev. Reverdy Ransom to Congress; and other statements made by her which show her attitude toward the Negro race. Mrs. Gould is of the high class white women who has a Christian training and lives the life and believes that every nationality on earth should enjoy all the rights accorded any other citizen of this country. She has money, brain, and talent, and courage of conviction to express herself on any question that tends to degrade or blacken the character of upright citizens by a jealous, prejudiced Southland intermingled with sections of the North and West. There are certain classes of whites who think it their duty to make colored men feel as though they were inferior when they come in contact with whites. We would we had one million white women of this country like Mrs. Gould, who would advocate the rights of the colored people and see to it that they have fair play and protection. It is with this class of white women that colored men experience no trouble; but it is that low class who turn their noses up at the colored man who tries to be respectable and just because he demands his rights. Some of this class of white women will pretend that they have been insulted, and for this cause many colored men are lynched and burned. We hope Mrs. Gould will organize her class of white women to see to it that colored people are treated fairly in this country, and especially the colored soldiers. New York City—A great deal of comment has been caused by Mrs. Howard Gould's enthusiastic advocacy of the election of the Rev. Beverly Ransom in the recent New York campaign for congress. This noted woman of culture, wealth, and refinement, who is an active suffragist, made speeches for Dr. Ransom and urged the colored people to stand unitedly behind him. Dr. Ransom did not receive enough signatures, because of his late entry into the campaign, to have his name placed upon the regular ballot. He, however, ran independently, and his name having to be written in, he received only 500 votes. Mrs. Gould's appearance an earnest speech at a mass meeting in Zion Church, on the eve of the election, in favor of Dr. Ransom's candidacy created quite a sensation. Prompted by Conscience Interviewed by a reporter. Mrs. Gould made the following statement: "I am afraid I can hardly explain in terms that will carry conviction. Frankly, I merely acted in accord with the deepest and most sincere promptings of my conscience. When I tell you that I am a southern woman, a Clemmons of Clemmonsville, N.C., you will understand that I have no theories of race equality to exploit. "I want to see the Negro in America get simple justice and an opportunity to develop all his possibilities for good citizenship. To my mind the blackest page in our national history is our treatment of our citizens of African descent. It sickens me to the soul to read frightful accounts of Negro lynchings in the South for supposed offenses which a white man might commit with impunity. Hove Conditions "I have watched with a sad heart the suppression of the Negro men and women in the southern states, and in many instances my recent visit to ten sections of the South brought tears to my eyes. The lack of educational opportunities and the scant political recognition is no less than appalling. I do believe that the Negro's only hope in gaining full citizenship and recognition as a man rests in his political representation through the members of his own race. This is no large task, if they would only realize their power, co-operate and concentrate their efforts in a common cause, I am aware of this defect, and it is my aim to lend every aid, influence, and effort in securing their rights, and to create a true feeling of democracy for the large mass of people. The Negro is such an elementary part of our daily life that there can be no excuse for overlooking his welfare." Fairness of Demand Mrs. Gould said she did not know the candidate at all well. She had first seen a statement of his platform and had been impressed with the fairness of the demands of a section where there are more Negroes than anywhere else in like area in the world for representation in Congress. Lynchings Soul Sickening Mrs. Gould continued: "As I have said before, it nikks me to the soul to read frightful accounts of Negro lynchings in the South for supposed offenses which a white man might commit with impunity. "It is worth remembering that the bogy of racial quantity has two sides to it. In my stories of the problem, and I have lived in the South and known it as only a southerner can, I have found that there are more white men ready to break down race lines and cohabit with black women than there are black women desirous of living with white men." Equal Educational Chances "I see no reason why the South should not give the colored children equal advantage to acquire an education as the white children. It is a short-sighted policy to follow any other plan if our country is to be raised to its highest power." In Oklahoma. We have been out on the road in the interest of the Plaindealer for the past three weeks and made a few stops on route to Oklahoma at Olathe, Paola, Parsons, Independence, Coffeyville, and then to Nowata, Wagoner, Muskaceur, Eufauda, Vernon, McAlester, Wilburton, Fort Gibson, Vian, Tullahasssee, Okmulguce, Beggs, Sapulpa, Chandler, Bristow, Tulsa, Coweta, Sand Springs, Claremore, and Vinita. It was certainly a pleasure to visit these different places and find the colored people progressing. They are chiefly engaged in farming but follow other trades of all kinds. We are proud of the colored people fast coming to the front, and we see hopeful signs. In Sapulpa at the city election in one precinct the colored people had almost absolute control of the polls. There are colored men on the police force, and as soon as they learn to stand together and demand their rights they will enjoy all the privileges of any other citizen. At Tulsa they have gone so fast in politics that they have elected a democratic city ticket. They claim that the Republican an city administration ignored them so far as improvements of city property around colored neighborhoods; No sidewalks, streets or lights, in fact the colored people had become as disgusted that they lined up with the Democrats, as that party promised them better things. Of course the tendency now is for everybody to desert the Democratic party, but probably the colored people of Tulsa can see some signs that nobody else has discovered. It is certainly a source of pleasure to see thousands of colored farmers in Oklahoma who are toiling hard to make Oklahoma a successful state, and yet these people are Jim-crowded and their educational facilities are poor and meagre. If the ballot is used properly, they will soon be able to eradicate this class of whites who oppose colored people receiving an education. We think Oklahoma is the garden spot for the colored people in the United States if they will just wake up and hold on to what they have. The natives have been robbed of their oil lands and metals by the white men, and it is the duty of the intelligent and honest colored people to get together, hold meetings and preach from the pulpit, newspapers, to beware of these graffiti who are robbing them of all their land, coal, and oil leases. Not obstinately these colored people in thousands and thousands of valuable acres of land and are fast coming to the front. We shall give the description of different towns we visited in a later edition. We were received with open arms everywhere we went and were highly commended for the many stand we have taken along all lines pertaining to the upbuilding of the race. Our subscribers were very good in paying their back subscriptions, and we feel gratified for the many good expressions spoken in favor of the Plaindealer and its great work. This has proven to us that colored men who will run a newspaper fearlessly and defend the rights of those who are down-trodden will be fully repaid. There is no doubt that the colored people will be loyal to one whom they trust. The main need in Oklahoma now is education, good school houses with good teachers, where the younger generation can be taught race pride and manhood. What is also needed is two or three regiments of colored multia in Oklahoma, as this will enlighten young men and be of great assistance to this nation in preparing soldiers to overthrow such things as are now going on in Europe. We shall conclude our trip in Oklahoma in the next few days. We had to come in on the firing lines and give out some news that would be wholesome and good for the public. Editorial: Why? Yes, Why? Why is it, that, when there exists, in this world, a state of war, certain days are set aside for certain things? Why is it that Authorities changed the time? Why is it that Authorities requested ministers to preach "Liberty Bonds" on last Sunday? The above questions are easily answered. But now, in the words of a certain minister (who compiled with the request concerning Liberty Bonds as far as he was able),—why is it that the proper authorities never requested that all ministers, regardless of race or sex, preach on a certain Sunday against lynching and other ill treatments of the Negroes? Why? Yes, why? B. M. W. JUDGE DYER'S DECISION AGAINST SEGREGATION Below is a statement issued by Judge Dyer in his famous decision granting a temporary injunction, April 17, 1916, forbidding the city of St. Louis putting into effect Negro segregation ordinances. Now if all the judges of the federal and district courts of the United States who take the oath of office that they will defend the Constitution of the United States and the state in which they reside and give equal justice to all, there would be no federal conflict between colored and white men in the federal court. But 99 per cent of the judges in this country will resort to the color question in deciding cases when the two races are involved and always give the best to the white race, with which they are identified. Judge Dyer is an honest Christian gentleman, and we know his spirit will never die and his the hearts of the colored people of memory will be forever cherished in this country. Following is a part of the decision: "Negroes do not ask for equality; whites do not ask for it; the Negroes only ask to have the same privileges as others have, the same rights under the law as others have. The plaintiffs are Negroes born in the United States; they are taxpayers of the city of St. Louis, by virtue of which they are entitled under the Constitution to the same legal rights as any white, native born, or any foreign born naturalized citizen of the United States. I would not be doing my duty if I hesitated to deal out equal justice to every one alike. "I shall grant here a temporary injunction restraining the enforcement of these ordinances, and I only say temporary for the reason that it has been stated that there is a case involving a like question now before the Supreme Court of the United States. I will make this injunction temporary; otherwise but for the pendency of that case I would make it permanent." Letter to Pershing Topoka, Kans., April 9, 1918. Commanding General Pershing. American Army, Somewhere in France My Dear General: Allow us to congratulate you on the great success that you are making in handling the American army in France. We must compliment you on your attitude in giving out facts when they are necessary, which is doing a great good for the cause you are advocating. Our people are subscribing lovingly to the liberty honors because they have great confidence in your ability to overthrow the killer in his attempt to enslave people of this country. Now General, our colored boys, who are from the best blood of this country, who are descendants of Ham and the Ethiopian race, are now coming in great numbers to assist you in this great work. The confidence the colored people in this country have in you and also the entire American population makes them want me to say to you that we know you will give our boys a fair treatment, and that no color line will be drawn, as France and England do not draw the color line on their colored soldiers, and we know you will not allow it to be drawn on ours, but every soldier who shows his ability as a soldier and does one hundred per cent soldier duty will be given credit by you, and we know all orders issued by you will be as looking upon soldiers as soldiers and men of color or race. Although our colored boys had to fight hard to get into the draft and are being discriminated against in portions of this Price $1.50 Per Year country right at this time by not being permitted to enjoy the comforts accorded white soldiers when traveling on the railroads and when they are hungry, being refused accommodations in the dining cars but are made to carry their lunch away in a sack like they were dogs; but not understanding all of these discriminations and hardships colored boys are fighting to get into the army to assist you in upholding the honor of this great government. Now, my dear General, we wish you would use your good offices in directing a message to the war department at Washington asking that all states where there are sufficient colored people there be instituted at once colored state militias who will be drilled and in readiness to assist in this great battle. A grave mistake has been made by white men of this country, and especially the southern whites men, and because of their prejudice colored men have been kept out of the national guards, and they are now forming guards and not saking colored men to participate. Millions of colored men could now be on the battle front, had preparation been made years ago to organize them as national guards. With best wishes, we are Yours very truly NICK CHILES, Editor The Topeka Plaindealer, Paul C. Phares. A line in the dailies Wednesday told of the death of Mr. Paul C. Phares, which occurred the evening before at a local hospital, where he went on Monday for treatment. It was the sad story of the ending of one of the best printers that ever stood at a case or sat down to a line-type machine. When the machines made their first appearance in Topeka, Phares was one of the chosen few selected for their operation. It is but human to err and Paul was not without fault from which he was the greatest sufferer. He was big hearted, kind, upright and honest. He was think of Paul's turn from the goal of success, this passage of the Holy Writ runs through our mind: "And Jesus answering said, 'A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his ralment, and wounded him, and departed leaving him half dead.'"—St. Luke, ch. 10, v. 30. Paul Phares arrived in Topeka about 30 years ago fresh from a village in Nebraska. He and his bridge of a few months were full of hope for the future. He was a splendid workman; sober, reliable and industrious. Bat gradually he drifted with the boys for a little recreation, and when he tried to retrace his steps he had ventured too far. Those that had, partaken of his hospitality at the bar had gone and left him wounded nigh unto death. From this he became a wanderer and plied his trade in different sections of the country, and his thorough knowledge of the printer's art made it no task for him to always find employment. Five years ago when the Plaidealer installed a linetype, the secretary of the Typographical Union recommended Paul Phares as the proper man to operate same, and at different intervals when he visited Topeka, we always managed to find some work for Paul. At the time of his demise he had been assisting with the machine work on this paper for the past two years. He made a stubborn battle for his life, never once giving up and as he departed for the hospital said, "I'll see you again." Two days before his death and he was feeling badly, he remarked to the writer that there was a poem on the hoo that he liked and that he believed he would set it up, and as his dute fingers run over the keys of the linetype, the following lines came out without an error: Darth with its dark and dreadful life Recedes and fades away. Lift up your head, ye heavenly hills! Ye gates of death, give way! My soul is full of whispered song, My blindness is my sight. The shadows that I feared so long Are all alive with light Thin while my pulses faint!) beat, My faith doth so abound In the foot of the foot Where dwells my Lord and King Oh grave where is thy victory? Oh death, where is thy sting? Paul Phares was a believer in the Christian religion and lived it according to the teachings of the Golden Rule, and now that he has been called from earth, lets throw the mantle of charity about the memory of this grand old time printer and occasionally drop a rose on his grave. Mr. Charles Phares, of Red Cloud, Nebr., arrived yesterday to look after the remains of his father and funeral services were held at the Conwell undertaking patrons. After a simple but impressive service, Messrs H. E. Wonger, Con VanNatta, Fred O'Nell, Al Sister and Carl Moore old timers who had worked with the deceased, conceived the remains to the big grey funeral car which vended its way to Mt Auburn Cemetery. He is survived by a wife and four sons, one of whom is serving his country in France. I S.

LEAVENWORTH The Eastern Star Club gave an Easter tea Monday afternoon and evening at the residence of Mrs. Bertha Giacomella on Ottawa Street. Mr. Tom Barbee is quite all at his home on Second Avenue. Friday afternoon at 2:45 Lincoln School had a patriotic program. An excellent program was rendered by the children. Talks on patriotism were made by Mr. J. D. Hurley, member of the Board of Education, Rev. A. J. Sanders, and Rev. J. W. Hayes. Funeral services of Mr. Reuben Nutter were held Sunday afternoon from the First Baptist church. Rev. J. W. Hayes officiated. Miss Imogene Banks is ill at her home on Dakota Street. Mrs. Alice Frazier received a telegram Friday from her son William that her youngest son, Tummy Chapman, died that morning in St. Paul. He had been sick only a short time with pneumonia. He had spent the winter here with his mother and had returned to St. Paul only a few weeks ago. Mr. Chapman was well liked by all who knew him. The principal of Summer School called a meeting last Friday eve for the purpose of demonstrating the Baby Bond before the public. A programme was rendered by the children of the school. Prof. Bruce made quite a lengthy talk. In part he said: It is necessary that every family plant every inch of ground in potatoes and beans and other vegetables and get in their coal before next November, for after that date all fuel, vegetables, and flour would be sent over there to our troops. Commence right now and learn how to eat corn bread. Last Saturday's parade was the largest ever seen in Leavenworth. Everybody turned out to celebrate the war anniversary and create interest in liberty, bonds—troops from the post, high school cadets, city officials, Red Cross nurses, two brass bands and a trumpet corps. Besides all the schools turned out on masse carrying banners and flags and singing patriotic songs as they marched along. First Sergeant Jason J. Jackson, retired, has been ordered to report at Washington, D.C., as soon as possible. The Sergeant leaves this Saturday. Miss Lousa Bruce is home visiting her parents. Miss Bruce is attending college at Ann Arbor, Mish. Mrs. J. J. Jackson is on the sick list. We, the members of the Sunflower Baptist Church, called the Rev. S. C. Doyle to its pastorate Dec. 25th, 1917. He accepted the call Jan. 1, 1918. He has raised $419.19. He has succeeded in reorganizing the working force of the church, and we, the members of the church, see the church and its work as never before in its history. He is a pulpit orator, and as an organizer he is unique. Rev. Doyle is a young man, and one that we are proud of. He has organized two clubs in the church, named Willing Workers, Miss Lulu Baker, President Miss Katie Saunders, Secretary and the Progressive Club, Mrs. Amanda Brooks, President, Mrs. Hazel Jones, Secretary. The two clubs are doing good work under their leaders. Easter Sunday the two clubs were called upon to make their report. The Willing Workers' Club reported $13105 The Progressive Club reported 11360. Total reported by the clubs $24465. We have bought two lots, and are now ready to build a parsonage. Too much can not be said of Rev. Doyle as a pastor. He has succeeded in getting into the hearts of both white and colored throughout the city of Leavenworth within the past three months. He never fails to have a large audience whenever he ascends the rostrum. The High School cadets are practising to give a high class opera at the High School for the benefit of Anxial Chapter No. 2 National Red Cross. LEXINGTON, MO.

His funeral was held from his house Saturday afternoon. WICHITA AND HER PEOPLE (By MATTIE A. PERKINS) We made our first trip to Wichita as a representative of The Plain-dealer, and found a thrifty, business class of people among our race. A large furniture store is owned and operated by Mr. J. E. Lewis and M. R. H Taylor. They carry a first-class stock of goods and have a large patronage among both races. A nice dry goods store is owned by Rev VanLeu, state missionary of the Baptical church, and operated by his son. They have a large line of ladies' and children's wear. The Whiteway Cafe is one of the leading eating houses of Wichita I is owned by Mr. and Mrs. B. G. Brunford. All meals are first class and served in style. Lieutenant W. A. Bettis owns and operates a large garage at 615 North Main and is always ready to acco. modulate anyone who desires a car We take this means to thank the many Wichita readers of the Topkick Plaindealer for their promptness in paying their subscriptions. We visited the offices of Dr. J. H. Farmer, Dr Bell, Dr A K Lawrence and Dr Grant G. Brown. These men are leaders in the medical profession in Wichita. Each has a large practice and getting along extremely well. Mr. B H. Avers, the only undertaker of the race in Wichita is doing well. He has a large establishment of 617 East Murdock street is making good We had the pleasure of visiting the three leading churches of Wichita, Sunday. The morning service was well attended at the New Hope Baptist church of which Rev. E. T. Fish back is pastor. Morning subject "New Life," was preached by the pastor. This organization is planning to erect a new building, corner of Ninth and Ohio streets at a cost of $90,000. At 3 30 Sunday afternoon the Sunday school of Calvery Baptist church Rev. S. B. Butler, pastor, rendered a very interesting program, which consisted of music and reading numbers, Mrs. S. B. Butler had charge of the music. Mrs. Henrietta Harper was mistress of ceremonies. They all deserve much credit for the able manner they trained the little folks. At the close of the children's program we listened to an interesting address by Mr. B Lloyd and Rev. Mackey, of Washington, D. C. Mrs. Ada Coulter is one of the leading business women of the race in Wichita. She is wide awake and entertaining, owning valuable property in Topeka and Wichita. She owns and operates the "Victoria" hotel at 345 N. Main street. It is a large two-story brick building with twenty-three rooms. Mr. and Mrs. Coulter have re THE MRS ADA COULTER sided in Wichita 14 years, during which time by thrift have accumulated considerable wealth. They have re- cently purchased a piece of land 50x 140 feet at 507 N Main just a block from where the now residues. It faces the court house and is estimated to be worth in the neighborhood of $10,000. Mr. Coulter is a fireman Easter Sunday was observed at St Paul A, M E church with appropriate services. At 6 o'clock the adult choir rendered a cantata which was in keeping with the illustrated "Nazarene" to a large and appreciative audience.
