LEADEBSHIP AND COLD FEET
Mr. John R. Shillady, (white), Secretary of The National Association for The Advancement of Colored People has resigned. In his letter of resignation, Mr. Shillady states that the race problem is more serious than he thot at first. A Negro could never honorably quit fighting for his own freedom. Shillady, who is Irish, will continue to fight for Irish freedom which is also a serious problem. We do not need any weak knoed white men for leaders and directors. The N. A. A. C. P. will begin real work when this axiomatic truth is put into action: "Down with WHITE leadership."—The Chicago Whip.
The above editorial appearing in the Chicago Whip should furnish food for thought for Colored and white who are looking after the interests of the race in America.
THAT SPINGARN MEDAL AWARD.
The Spingarn Medal was awarded to Dr. W. E. B. DuBois for going to France and arranging the Pan-African Congress. DuBois was granted a passport by the Government and did nothing that benefited the Race directly or indirectly as far as the Peace Conference was concerned. William Monroe Trotter, who was reused a passport, worked his way over us a cook and gave to members of the Peace Conference a manifesto stating the case of the Negro He also gave the French newspapers Congressional Records which made admission of Colored prejudice, segregation and Jim Crowism. We leave it to you. What good came from DuBois's trip? What good is a medal, anyway? Ask the returned soldiers, they know.
In its issue of June 10, the Arkansas Democrat has this to say editorolly, about the action of the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church, in transferring Bishop Connor to Michigan and the West Indies. The editorial follows:
"PUNISHED FOR GOOD CITIZENSHIP."
"In railroading Bishop Connor from Arkansas to the district of Michigan and Canada, the recent general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church brought no honor upon itself, and defeated its own purpose to cripple him by thus penalizing his devotion to law and order and the best interests of his race in the South. In this punishment for good citizenship, the Negro denomination has shown that it sadly needs the broad vision of this Arkansas Negro leader it has sought to discredit, for the lack of which is its national counsels, the race is in a fair way to sufer deeply,
No Negro in Arkansas has shown himself a better citizen than Bishop Connor. No Negro has wellded great influence with the white citizenship of the State. None has had clearer vision of the real needs of his race. Yet because he had the courage and patriotism to insist upon the administration of exact justice on the lawless Negro as well as on the lawless white man, Bishop Connor is assigned to a smaller field, far from the land he loves and understands.
No clearer evidence of the dangers to the Negro race that are involved in the Dulbola leadership, discussed at some length quite recently in these columns, could be found than in the racial feelings displayed at St. Louis Conference Hall at which Bishop Conner's "punishment" was decided upon. The leadership, whose principal resource is in the fostering of racial antipathies and hatreds, unless it is unadled by such wise and conservative Negroes as Bishop Connor, Bishop Morris, Joseph A. Booker and other Arkansas leaders of the race, can bring only unmeasured woe to the Negroes of America.
It is well for the white men of Arkansas to know the difficulties encountered by such Negro leaders as Bishop Connor. It is well, perhaps, for them to see, as they may in this instance, the price that is paid for Negro devotion to right and to justice, as well as to the highest interests both the black and white races.
Of course we black folk knew that the white folks in Arkansas thought just the way that the Arkansas Democrat says tey feel about it. The only thing that the Arkansas Democrat does not seem to have in its noodle as thoroughly as it should is the fact that we black folks have decided to do our own thinking and we have decided for ourselves AS TO THE Aided for ourselves as to the amount of "Broad Vision" of Bishop Connor and Bishop Morris (as the Democrat styles Rev K. C Morris). The Democrat seems to have gotten in a big hurry to furnish credentials for their friend to be used in making his pilgrimage into Michigan. The Black Dispatch feels the, that, Rev Morris has been done a grave injustice to have his name linked in the way the Democrat has linked it, for we know that the send taken by Rev E. C. Morris was an entirely different one to the position taken by the Right Reverend Bishop J. M. Conner.
If a Colored man has manhood and the backbone enough to present himself before his people as a candidate for governor, his people are certainly undeserving of the rights of citizenship, if they fail to whole-heartedly support his candidacy. A vote for John H. Blount means a vote for race manhood and race womanhood. It also means a vote against Lily-whiteism and political oppression. The Hot

TOPEKA PASTOR TO CHICAGO.
THE
MISSING
MAN
REV. S. E. J. WATSON
After having served as pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church for the past three years Rev. S. E. J. Watson, will leave the city to take up the work of pastor of one of the largest churches in Chicago. Rev. Watson was called to Shiloh from Dallas, Texas, to succeed the Rev. J. A. Hill and since coming to the city has done a splendid work as pastor, and had just put into operation plans to build a new Shiloh. He is an efficient churchman and his influence and worth was felt by all who know him.
In all matters pertaining to religion civic and educational advancement of the race, Dr. Watson was always found ready and willing to lend his assistance and did much good in this community. As chairman of the General Committee for the Reception to Returning Soldiers, Dr. Watson organized and carried to a successful completion the grand affairs which Topcha has had since the Negro Business League in 1907. At the invitation of the loading white ministers of this city, he appeared before the Ministerial Alliance and delivered a masterly address dealing with the American Negro. He will be followed shortly by his splendid family, consisting of Mrs. Watson, Miss Zelma Watson who graduated from high school, Verta, S. E. J. Jr., Viktan, Katherine and Jewel. The loss of the Watson family is regretted by a host of friends and admirers of this city.
Rev. Watson enters his new duties as pastor of the Pilgrim Baptist Church of Chicago with good will of all Kansas and his success is beyond a shadow of doubt.
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH.
Salt Lake City has quite a population of Colored, numbering 1250. Of these quite a number own their homes. In fact the Colored people of this city are doing extremely well.
We have two Colored Churches, the Trinity A. M. E Church and Calvary Baptist. Rev. X. C. Runyon a former Kansan is the pastor of the A. M. E. Church and is just closing a very successful postorate of two years. Under his leadership the church is growing both spiritually and financially. Rev Runyon is a very scholarly young man, a graduate from Wilberforce and is a credit to the community in general. We predict for him a bright future. He was a vignaor to the General Conference at St. Louis and reports an excellent session of that body.
Rev. G. W. Hartis is the pastor of Calvary Baptist Church. He is also closing an excellent work and is lead- ing his church to success. Rev. Hart has bought a beautiful home since coming here.
The Colored Republicans have organized a Republican Club with Mr. J. T. Moreland as president.
The Utah State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs convened at Trinity A. M. E Church June 8 and 9. A number of delegates from Pocatella, Idaho, Oden, and from the various clubs of the city were in attendance.
A splendid display of art and Home Economics was shown and an excellent program was rendered. Mrs. Gertrude Lancaster is President of this august body.
Hev. H. L. Morgue of Odgen was a pleasant visitor in the city during the Federation.
Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Crews have returned from a visit to Illinois, Iowa and Missouri.
Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Powell are preparing to move in their new home which they have recently purchased.
We are looking forward to the visit of Prof. Kelly Miller who will lecture at A. M. E. Church on July 12.

WONDERFUL ARCHITECTUAL EXHIBIT
Dr. J. A. Lankford Eminent Architect Puts on Wonderful Exhibit
THE REAL LEADERSHIP
PAPER READ BEFORE THE 8. 8. CONVENTION AT WITCHITA, KANS.
Prof. J. A. Lankford, M. M. H, LL M., the most eminent architect and mechanical engineer of the Race, also the pioneer along architectural lines
J. A. LANKFORD, MS. LLM.
among our popl, has a wonderful exhibit of plans and specifications, blue prints and rendered drawings of Church edifices, college and school
By Miss Mamie Williams, Topeka.
Indeed these are radical times. Warfare has been revolutionized to the extent that we have new thoughts about warfare on land, on water and in the air. The new issues had to be met. The old thoughts had to be discarded and new ideas presented. Not only in warfare, but also in government. Great changes have come. These changes are to be seen in government control of railroads, the draft in the army, income tax and many forms of government control.
A third great change is to be seen in educational systems. Here the changes have been slower but they are gradually coming about. The conception of mere learning be longs to the past and we have replaced it with the proper conception of the social mind. This we know to be a shifting from individual conception to that of the social. The greatest thing in education is service. The educated man is best exemplified in former years by Franklin, in latter years by Roosevelt.
We approach this subject from the standpoint of education because training for leadership in either the secular or religious world begins in the school room and is continued in the Sunday School. As Samuel of old the training of the leaders is in the hands of the teachers. They must prepare men and women for the service of the generation. Their work is to make youth ready to do greater service than they could directly render. They carry the torch which sets afire the heart of youth. Their opportunity and their reward is that of inciting youths to noble ideals and patriotic loyalty. It is they who prepare others for the larger task of world service.
Today we all know candidates for public office are under examination analysis and discussion. The public is considering very carefully the kind of leaders the world is to have in the years just ahead of us. The sort of men and women who are to guide the destinies of the race in the next twenty five years is a matter of supreme importance. They should not be persons who first of all are bent upon accuring offices and honors for themselves. Like David they may be called to national leadership from posts of humble service.
But what are the qualities of Real Leadership—what are the qualifications of a Real Leader? Real Leader ship and occupying a prominent position are two different things. It is the test which the shepherd boy David met. To man or woman must be the Lord God's appointed. It is only the person who goes to his daily task with the love of God filling his heart who wins. The successful execution of any worthwhile task requires the exercise of faith, hope and love. The greatest of theses we know to be love and God is love. Therefore, if we would lead others to the Blue Mountains of Fame or to success we ourselves must be of God.
Some like Jesse think of leadership in terms of outward appearances; they forget that Saul, the failure towered above them all. But when the crucial hour comes as come it must and will, they, too, find that it is the heart that counts. "Man looketh on the outward appearance but the Lord looketh on the heart." God is chiefly concerned with spiritual verties. The present needs of the world are spiritual in nature; they have to do with hopes, aspirations and newly awakened sensibilities of mankind. If the clear/spiritual verties of the Bible especially as they relate to God
buildings and residences which is being exhibited in the Coliseum for the benefit of the general public and the enlightenment of the white race as to the extent of the progress being made by the black man when given a chance to demonstrate his talent.
Mr. Langford is not only an eminent architect and mechanical engineer, but he has degrees from several of the leading white and Negro Universities of the country. He has also finished law, and is a member of the Bar and of the Supreme Court of Indiana. His exhibit is extremely popular and at the writing of this article he has received over one hundred orders for church edifices, apartments, hotels, and business buildings since his exhibit in St. Louis recently before the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church it shows that the Race has taken a step in advance and that they are appreciating the skill and ability of our young men who have qualified along the different lines of science, art and industry. His exhibits are truly a work of brain, skill and art and should be appreciated, and he should be consulted by every Negro of the Race who is thinking of building or of reon structuring a building.
Mr. Langford is also a noted writer on Christian art and architectural subjects. He is the only Negro who has written a book of note on the Christian art.
We find within Mr. Langford one of the greatest geniuses of a race. His National Headquarters is 1449 Que St. N. W. Washington D. C.
and His will, to the brotherhood of man and to justice on earth were being consistently stated Bolshevism would not now be so fearful.
For real leadership one must possess humility, which is ever a mark of true soul greatness. He must be able to write his name in kindness, love and mercy with all of those with whom he comes in contact. We need true leaders at this time because we tend to become what we admire; we imitate those we love; we emulate the men and women to whom we have given our hearts. The country's call, the world's call and the call of the omnipotent God is: 'Give me men to match my mountains.
Men to match my inland plains
Men with empires in their purpose
Men with crus in their brains.
Give me men to match my prairies
Men to match my inland seas
Men whose thoughts shall pave a path
way
Up to ampler destinies"
THE CHURCH THROUGH THE
EPWORTH LEAGUE
Miss Inona Margaret Paige
The world today is composed of institutions, each having a different aim, and each striving to make for itself such a foundation that in the years to come, will not be able to weaken.
Among these institutions the Church is the greater. Its principal aim is to give to man the laws and teachings of God as we glean them, not only from the Bible but from the wonderful works of His hand, as we see them portrayed thru nature.
But because this work is so big, the Church must have its auxiliaries or helpers in order that they may reach out and draw into its folds, men and women, boys and girls from all the walks of life.
Among these auxiliaries is our Epworth League, founded at Cleveland, Ohio, 1889. It, like our Sunday School must be the training, entertaining and working school of the Church
It is the training school of the church because it draws both our old and young into closer study and understanding of the ways of the truth and the light. It is here that our boys and girls gain a clear knowledge of the Bible, the abillay to lead in our Sunday Schools and a strong faith in Christ that they may be strong supporters of the church.
It is the entertaining body of the Church because the spirit of congeniality and helpfulness prevails
It is the working school of the church because it is seeking to bring the light of all that is best and noblest in its members. Therefore let us seek out for ourselves and our companions the ways of the Truth that we may be stronger to continue the work of the Church and its organizations. For the time is fast approaching when we will be called on to aid our people from the chain of oppression to the light of a broader freedom. Unity and Love.

The New Book by a White Author
Shows Rising Tide of Color
Against Oppression
Latest Statistics Show Twice as Many Colored People In the World As White.
New York City — "The Rising Tide of Color" by Dr. Lothoop Stoddard is just off the press of Chas Scribner Sons and has created a sensation among the Colored and white reading public.
In a well written book of some 500 pages, the author boldly asserts that the Colored races of the world are tired of race domination and are preparing for the greatest war of all those which have in the past been inflicted upon mankind.
According to Dr. Stoddard, the world war, which cost three hundred ninety billion dollars and thirty-three million casualties, will be a small conflict in comparison with this great war which is to come.
Here is the way the forces will line up:
500,000,000 yellow people.
450,000,000 brown people.
150,000,000 black people.
40,000,000 red people.
These so-called Colored races from Asia, Africa, and South America will attack the 550,000,000 whites and with aorrible results.
"Not only do the Colored races outnumber the white races, two to one," says Dr. Stoddard, "but from statistics it is shown that it takes white people eighty years to increase one hundred per cent, while yellow and brown people increase one hundred per cent in sixty years, and black people breed fastest of all, increasing one hundred per cent in forty years.

N. A. A. C. P. BRANCHES WIN IN COLORADO FIGHT
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced to day that the Supreme Court of the state of Colorado had decided in favor of the Rev. W. L. Darlius, a colored minister of Colorado Springs in his suit against Pete Aposolos, proprietor of a boot black stand. In January, 1918, Mr. Darlius was refused service in the shop and brought suit against the proprietor through the Colorado Springs and Denver Branches of the Association. When brought to trial the case was decided against Darlius, the judge declaring that the business shoe shining was not a public business and did not come under the provisions of the state Civil Rights Act. Upon the advice of the National Office of the Association all the Colored Branches of the Association united in raising funds and employing lawyers to take the case to the state supreme court. When this was done the decision of the lower court was reversed. Aposolos applied for and was granted a rehearing on the constitutionality of the Civil Rights Act. When the case was retrieved a decision was rendered declaring that a boot black stand was a place of public accommodation and that Mr. Darlius, could recover from the owner of the stand who had discriminated against him.
The decision is of great importance because of the effecta it will have in the state court in the future.
Attorney E. P. Blakemore formerly of Wichita, Kansas was in charge of the case in the lower cour tand secured judgment in favor of the Rev. Darlus. They carried the case to the supreme court.

RESENT DETERMINATION OF
OFFICIALS TO CLOSE SCHOOLS
BECAUSE OF LACK OF FUNDS
Okmulgee, Okla, June 23—As a result of the fight that the National Association branch of Okmulgee has made led by Ion, D. J. Wallace and Principal Fort, the County Commissioners got very busy and found the necessary funds for the continuation of the schools for Negroes for the full term. When the citizens committee faced the authorities with the opinion of Judge Robert L. Williams which was furnished by she Black Dispatch a hurry up call was made for the state auditor and a quick transfer of surplus funds in the various funds of the county was made and the amount necessary to continue the schools was made, the amount being $1400.0
The Deputy State Auditor found that there was a surplus of money in the Court, Tick and Sheriffs Fund, and available balance of $58,000.00.
The Okmulgee citizens made the right on the ground that the county had the right to use any money that was available for the use of Negro schools and won out on a simple repositionation of to fact. They did not have to go to court and when the schools closed last week, they had a balance of the amount get aside in the transfer to use for other needed improvements in the city Colored schools.

Judge Guy also attended the annual meeting of the National Association, for the Advancement of Colored People, at Atlanta, Ga, where he appeared on the program. He reviewed the Robt. Hill case, which has become national in its scope.
In one of the most successful efforts ever made at an A, M. E. Church in this state was what grand rally made by the A. M. E. Church na Iutchinson. Rev. K. C. Henderson, pastor. A total of $1135 00 was raised by a strictly cash effort, no begging or soliciting was done; the money being raised by individual voluntary contributions on the part of the members of the church.
The rally closed with the burning of the mortgage at which time an elaborate program and ceremony was held. The citizens of both races speak in the highest terms of the Rev. B. C. Henderson who has labored at that place for three years and during that time has won the highest esteem and friendship of all whom he has come in contact. He is a splendid type of the young, modern day minister, progressive in his ideas and upright in his everyday life and work. He is a scholar, and a pulpiteer. His wife, Mrs. Ethel Ransom Henderson, is over at his side to assist him in carrying on the work of his mind. The church is now preparing to build a six room modern stucco parsonage and plans are well under way to carry that project to completion at once.
The good people of Hutchinson are to be congratulated on this splendid effort as well as their pastor.
Rev. Henderson was recently at the bedside of his mother-in-law, Mrs J. R. Ransom at Topeka.

THE RELATION OF THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL TO THE CHURCH
By Dorothy Tandy, Newton, Kans.
Jn order that we may clearly under
stand I will try frat to define or give
you the meaning of Sunday Schoo!
and ite works.
The Sunday School is a_ kinder.
garden and nursery of the Church, it
1s a school of Bibical learning for the
old as well as the young, the great as
well os the small,
The Sunday School of today {s the
Church of tomorrow, it {s also a
teaching service of the Church and
a place where souls get their first
food,
In the Sunday School the study
word of God is made so very simple
that even the small, child may in
its childish way uncestand,
The Sunday School is a great con.
necting lnk of the Church because
it Is the early training of our young
ves that js the most impressive.
The Bible tells us to “Train up the
child in the way it should go and
When it is old it will not depart
from it.” If our children are inter-
ested in the lessong taught in the S
S, then it {a easitr to interest him in
the lessons in the sermons preached
The Sunday School lays all the
foundations upon which the organi-
zations are builded, Where ever we
find @ live Sunday School oe aro sure
to find a growing church.
There are four reasons that we need
& gv0d Sunday School.
1 To train the young mind to un-
doratand the Scripture Jessons taught.
2 To train the grown ups how to
Impart their knowledge intelligent),
with the ability to glve guod Mlustra-
tions of understanding,
2 It needa an Evanglizing agency,
for whatever muy be said of other
methods the Sunday School presents
& normal way. It tnkes the child and
Instructs and develops him as ho
frows from period to period, from
infinew to adult life.
4 Tho Jast but not least reason
fs that the Church needs a place
Where old ag well a4 young can be
kept busy for it is sald “That an idle
brain is the Devil's Work Shop.”
Now that I have outlined the four
princtpal reasons that the Church and
the Sundoy School are no closcly con.
need dud can readily sea the ro
lation one has with the other. So
lot us all cooperate with one another
with brotherly love and a spirit of
Christ among us.
