FITZPATRICK TO NATIONAL CONVENTION Fifth District Republicans are Behind War Hero for Delegate. There's a great movement on going the Republican to pick the best and most level headed delegates to go to the National Republican convention to be held in July. The Republicans or the Fifth Com- gressive Party of which Sullivan count is one are asking that Col- Protester, R. Pitzatrick of Sullivan, be one of the delegates from the trick. He has just returned from Prairie where he had some great flipping to be presented of world democracy. He is with the fun- dels in the race through the THE NEW YORKER COL. 117/Patrick Argonne He has been a member of the K N G for over twenty years and was on the border with the Second Kansas and served as Penttenant colonel. His former comrades from private up, speak in glowing terms of his valor as a soldier. He is highly respected by them and it is said that his treatment of enlisted men was all that could be expected, that he was humane and painstaking toward his men. Col. Pitzpatrick has been associated in the real estate business with his father for a number of years and is now receiver of the Kansas State Bank of Salina. He is Kansas breed and born and will have no opposition as delegate to the next National Convention, which will need men like him to frame a policy for the betterment of conditions for all concerned in this country KANSAS CITY, KANSAS. Large delegations from here attended the Masonic grand lodge at Salina last week. People's Mercantile Co., is on the eve of opening for Negro business in this city with a capital stock of $10,000.

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH CALLED A COUNCIL Junction City, Kan., Sept 5. The Council called by the Second Baptist church for the purpose of hearing evidence to ascertain as to why of their disagreements after hearing all evidences, we find that through basis on illegal meeting was called and according to a law adopted by the church September 5, 1917 and recorded on the church book on page 215, taken from 2 Thess. 3 Chuwer 69 these members stand under discipline until writer confession is made before the church. We further find that the pastor is sound in the scripture and an expounder of the truth and a supporter of the law of the Baptist church.

P OF CLU 9 BRIDGEFORTH, PRESIDENT OF THE KANSAS INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE REV. B. DAVIDSON BURNS MORTGAGE REV. B. DAVIDSON BURNS MORTGAGE Thrifty Minister Sets a New Mark in Church Work in Topeka and Kansas. OF MATTIE A. PARKINSON of the late borough of Mt. Carroll and Laporte church Sunday, was a crowding success. Large crowds at crowded each service and over one thousand dollars was raised. In the morning Prof C W Rogers, of Des Moines Iowa delivered a tartling lecture Leave a Light in the Window. After the morning services, free dinners consisting of fried chicken vegetables plus cake and other palatable were served to feverish people. At 3 o'clock Rev T. L. Giloth who recently arrived from overseas spoke to a crowded house. He spoke largely on soldier life in France, and of his work as a whole in the Y M C A. The evening services were also grand and largely attended. The Rev. Given, of the United Brotherhood church spoke at 8 o'clock. He dwelled at length on "The Master's Work and Doing Good." He had a crowded house, and everyone present greatly enjoyed what he said. He himself was carried away with the neighboring church and its wonderful work. Rev. Davidson said that out of 20 years experience in Christian work this was a crowning day. A spirit of joy started with them in the morning and stayed the entire day and even at night it waited as the doleas did around Jerusalem to carry the news back to God on high At the close of the services the mortgage burning took place. Mrs Pannie Williams, one of the oldest mothers of the church whose husband paid the first ten dollars on the lots where the church now stands was crowned with the honor of holding the mortgage as the smoke woke up then about 700 people waived their handkerchiefs while the flames were consuming the mortgage, and just at this particular time a would like the one on the Day of Pentecost sweet down among the stock and no one could hold his peace. It was a day that will long be remembered and will live in the hearts of man through years to come. Rev Davidson and his congregation deserve great credit for this wonderful work. Piercer Citizens Press Rev Davidson It is thus that we are in some difficulties that Mr. Carnell Piercer church was the only church standing in the town. He shared the land with the church and hour of the morning. He has done much yet I am loving to do more. The church is now free from taxes all the time and we are still in town. I am married with a wife of the time for 45 years. For many years we were involved for them and loved for them and worked for them for the church.

Tuesday night after a short illness. Her remains were brought to this city and funeral services were held from the C.M.R. church conducted by the R.C.R. J. S. Blaine. Thus passes one of the excellent young people of this community. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved family in this their hour of sadness Mrs. L. B Kimbrough and Mild have returned from a visit with Littles in Detroit, Mich. Mrs. Lizzie Smith, of Horton, Kansas, is the guest of Mt. and Mrs. Juno Lott. The Mt Zion Baptist Association is now in session and interesting meetings are being held each day. The delegation is large and shows a remarkable increase in every department.

Miss Hester Push, who spent the summer in Denver, Colo. has returned and was greatly benefitted by the trip. It being impossible to name each of the visiting delegates to our city this week we simply say, "welcome to our homes and our city." Miss Day McGee left one day work for Jefferson City, where she will enter Lincoln Institute. Other students will have later for that city.
