ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO, Aug 15—Miss Edna Greene, and Mr. Ila Smith, both of Topeka, Kansas, were quietly married here yesterday evening at the home of the bride, 510 W. Leaf Avenue. Mr. Smith arrived August 6th from his home in Kansas to claim his bride who has been a resident of Albuquerque for the past year, coming here on account of the health of one of her sisters. From what can be learned the wedding is the happy culmination of a love all air dating back some three years or more. Mrs. Smith was stenographer and confidential clerk to Hon Nick Chiles, fighting Editor of The Topeka Plaindealer, for some four or more years, while Mr. Smith was foreman of the printing department, a position he had filled for twenty years. It was while thus enraged that the two was thrown together and the daily association ripened into inseparable love The ceremony was performed by the Rev. T. B. J. Barclay, pastor of the A. M. E. Church of Roswell, N. Mex., who is also a former Kansan and life-long friend of the bride's family. The marriage was witnessed by the bride's immediate family and three or four former Kansas friends of the contracting parties who reside here. Mrs. Smith is a leader of the business and social life of Albuquerque being secretary-treasurer of the Henry-Matthews Transfer Company, one of the largest and most successful concerns of the kind in the state of New Mexico; and is also secretary of the Rio Grande National Development Society. She has also been active in the religious activities of Albuquerque. Being a member of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church and recently retired president of the B. Y. P. U. She was born, treated and educated in Hiawatha, Kansas and is said to be one of its brightest students ever given a diploma from the High School of that city. She is a stenographer of rare ability and stands in the front rank of the profession But little is known of Mr Smith in this city, but he comes highly recommended and is said to be one of the best known printers and newspaper men of his race in Kansas. He is a Mason of high degree and is being royally received by craftmen in this city. Amid shouts of "good luck" and "good bye" from hosts of friends the happy pair departed for points in California where they will spend some time. Mrs. Smith assumed immediate command while the husband seemed perfectly happy in the role of "Jiggs" for when the writer asked if they intended to live in Albuquerque or Kansas, she replied quickly. "As yet we are undecided. We love Kansas and Kansans, we were both born and reared in the state and it's my husband's first time to be from under the shadow of the dome of the State House, but in case we find something in keeping with his profession and mine, that will pay us more cash than we can receive in Kansas, we will not return to the state but will settle down and get busy." TOPEKA, K Institute Will Begin Its 25th Year Sept. 6th Institute Will Begin Its 25th Year Sept. 6th The Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute has extended its field of usefulness so that the ministers of the State of Kansas can receive a direct benefit from the Institute. The object of the principal of this state institution is to have it tender the maximum amount of service to the citizens of the commonwealth along educational lines. In co-operation with the Reverend J. II. Van Leu and other clergymen of the State, Principal G. R. Bridgeforth was able to open the doors of the Institute from June 19th to June 19th to ministers and Christian workers. Courses of instruction were given in Pastoral theology, homeletics, Sunday school and young people's work. The Reverend J. H. Van Leu was director of the school, and was directly responsible for the selection of the splendid ```markdown ``` L. L. and E. I SUMMER SCHOOL, Tpeka, Kansas faculty which served with him Dr L. M. Denton, of the Kansas City Theological Seminary faculty was in charge of the work in pastoral theology. Dr W. A. Sharp, also of the Kansas City Theological Seminary faculty, conducted the class in homeliness. Dr. Sharp spent a number of years as a missionary in India. In his lectures on missions he gave new students a clear vision of both home and for them a mission they had ever had. The Sunday School and Young People's work was in charge of Dr. J M Gulley, of the American Baptist Publication Society. The importance of the work in these departments of the church was emphasized and realized of improving the work were studied Dr. W. F. Moore they the courteous of the American Baptist Mission Society was a valuable addition to the Summer School city Dr Moore is Director of Negro Work North for this South and is making a study of religious, social and economic conditions among the Colored people in all parts of the country Dr. Moore has had a large experience and possesses a vast amount of first-hand information upon things vital to a larger in欲 on the work of the minister, its possibilities and its short-comings. Those who attended the school were greatly benefited not only by the work of the class room but by the personal interviews which they had with these men of training and experience. The principal is still receiving expressions of the good which the school has done in this first session from the ministers and christian workers who attended. It has been requested that the summer school for Ministers and Christian Workers be made a permanent part of the Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute and it is expected that the State Board of Administration will do this. Provided sufficient funds are appropriated at the next session of the legislature Principal Bridgefooth expects to conduct in the future a six week summer school for students and teachers who desire to take academic and industrial courses. Since June 19th the institute has been closed for repairs and improvements upon the buildings and grounds. The opening of school on September 6th will mark the beginning of the institute's twentieth-fifth year. The development of the school during its existence has been rapid. Many friends of the institute will remember its beginning in a small one room house near Shunganunga Creek on Washington Street, Tooneka Mr. Edward Stephens and Miss Irie Pedlick began it as a kindergarten, sewing school and reading room. Thru the conscientious efforts of its early workers and former principal the school has grown from the one room house to a school of five beautiful stone buildings, three cottages and a modern stone barn upon one hundred and ten acres of campus and farm land on the outskirts of Topeka. The location is ideal and beautiful. The school has become a state school under the supervision of the State Board of Administration and is entirely supported by the state of Kansas. An industrial division is operated in connection with the academic division of the Institute and many young men and women are helped to find the line of work for which they are best adapted. The institute receives Federal aid for its industrial work under the Smith-Hughes act concerning vocational educational Boys are trained in carpentry, blacksmithing, automobile mechanics, tailoring, printing and agriculture and upon completion of their courses are able to command attractive salaries at their trade. The Home Economic Division gives the young women training in domestic arts and domestic science. Each of the industrial departments is splendidly equipped and equipment is steadily being added. The student of vocational agriculture have at their command a large dairy herd several hundred pure bred chickens, thirty hogs, a large truck farm, fruit orchard, thirty acres of wheat, and a large average devoted to forage and fiber crops The business courses and nurse training courses have recently been added and are developing rapidly.

THE WEST LAWN CEMETERY ASSOCIATION Kansas City Kansas' Latest Move For the Race. The largest and most timely project ever organized by the race in Kansas is the West Lawn Cemetery Association, which has been chartered under the laws of the state Kansas. West Lawn Cemetery is located on the Bloomquist road, three blocks west of the city limits, adjoining Highland Park Cemetery, the exclusive burial ground for the wealthy whites. The new cemetery contains a little over 22 acres of land which the company has built 11 acres into plots running from $75.00 up. Single graves range from 7 to $20.00 in price. There could not have been found a more shot spot as chosen by the company. A beautiful spot of ground rolling to the west slightly, with shrubs and trees, on the west view. Nature has done well by this careful use of ground and the landscapes gardner who has been employed to design the roads and outlays will add greatly to its beauty. Several photos have been sold to people outside of the city who plan to have their loved ones removed to this place. As soon as consentent, the Sister's home will be built and a chapel is planned. The grounds will be kept in first class condition. A beautiful stand of blue grass and clover already adorns the entire acreage, which adds greatly to the view. This will be carefully tended and improved. Tombstones and monuments can be placed on the graves which will be in keeping with the surroundings of the place. On a Sunday, in July recently the cemetery was consecrated with elaborate ceremonies conducted by the Revs D A. Holmes and George McNeal. Refreshments were served by the directors of the company and every one rejoiced at this much needed movement on the part of a number of prominent race men of this city. It was indeed inspiring to see the interest manifested to the extent of getting together a number of loyal race men who saw the need and met the emergency by assembling their dollars and putting the project through. Other projects of similar nature can be carried out with equal success. The officers and members who compose the company are men who have established a reputation of doing things for the community and are successful in their respective lines. Mr. P. McNair, the president, is a successful grocer, real estate dealer and loan agent at 955 Freeman Ave., phone Fairfax 2386 who can give any information regarding the cemetery, C. W.

Odd Fellows Status Remains Same In Philadelphia the status of the Odd Fellows' result at Philadelphia has not been changed, in spite of the misleading statements and misrepresentations issued by the Morris faction; and this is the plain status the case and all parties at interest will govern themselves accordingly. Be it remembered that in 1918, the S. C. M. undertook to postpone the 19th B. M. C. until 1920 and thereby continue themselves in office by proclamation instead of by election. Many of the lodges dissented—taking the position that the S. C. M. acted without authority and its effort to postpone the B. M. C. was null and void—accordingly 282 delegates journeyed to New York, the place appointed and held a B. M. C. at the constitutional time the S. C. M. which had postponed the meeting, becoming alarmed, journeyed to New York and constituted themselves the B. M. C., held a meeting, first ratifying the postponement by themselves, and then proceeded to re-elect themselves. January 1918 Noel and his associates brought ouster proceedings in the Court of Common Pleas in Philadelphia, causing the morris people to show cause why they should not be ousted and by what right they were holding office. The issue was thus joined and cam along to be heard in April 1922, the jury deciding in favor of the Noel people, deciding that the Manhattan B. M. C. was the legal B. M. C, and such a meeting as as contemplated by law and that Noel and his associates were the regularly elected officers, and that the meeting hold at Stowell Hall was irregular and not in good faith and in furtherance of an effort to populate the Morris people in office. From this decision the Morris people in called to a court tribunal which is composed of the judge, no presided in the original case and two other judges who as a rule take the view of the judge who tried the original case. It was a part from the纵印 of the judge in the original case that his business were with the judge, the Morris people, but the jury were the judges of the cases in a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, the Noel people. The Morris people appealed which had the court holding the office. In Mo. Noel apologized which had the court holding the office. It is also used to call that in appeal and tooken to the remem court the court of the he resor or no other where certain of defends won in the court below. So until the the supreme court acts, the jurys verdict is of four and the Morale people are in office as they have been all along. Now this is a statement of the status of the case and this will be the status of the case until the supreme court acts, probably in January 1921. It is error, false and misrepresentation for the Morris people to circulate the propaganda that the case has been finally settled—that the court tribune was the court of the last resort. It the Morris people had not won the decision in the court tribune, they would have had a B. M. C. in New York, according to their adjournment at Stowell Hall and the Noel people would have had the regular B. M. C. at Wilmington Delaware according to the A monument of the Loth R. M. C. Preparations were made for both the Wilmington and the New York preset, before the court tribune remitted its decision in July to Leah. In that there is nothing for either side to be received until the courts finally decide what the Noel Morris people know the some of people who Will not to the editor B. M. and will not to the editor B. M. fine straight ahead the or dons at seen on the Winnifton. Wailing us and just out in our apartment. The case has not been decided—the verdict inane was the verdict of the same common pleas court and was no higher than the verdict of the jury. It is up to the supreme court of Pennsylvania to say whether or not the nine men have a right to postpone the meeting and set aside the decree of the B. M. C., their creator, and thereby extend their term of office by proclamation and continue to carry themselves on the pay roll without the consent of the people or whether the people them selves are supreme, and have a right to regulate and supervise their servants. It is simply a question as to whether the B. M. C., the creator is greater than the S. C. M., its creature. The 18th B. M. C adjourned in 1918 to meet in New York in 1919. The law provides that B. M. C can meet only in obliance to a jouvement. The S. C. M. not willing to trust the people to pass upon their election, again undertook to postpone the meeting for two years and kept themselves in office. The jury decided that they had no right or authority to do so. The judge instructed the jury that there was nothing in the law to authorize the S. C. M to postpone the B. M. C but the court inhabes on a tollically decided that neither the Manhattan B. M. C or the Stowall meeting were such a B. M. C as the law contemplates, therefore reaching the conclusion that no B. M. C at all was held and the Morris people held over because their successors had not been elected. This in nowise legalizes any action the S. C. M. has taken since it undertook to postpone the 19th B. M. C. But the court failed to point out, since there was no B. M. C. held, and the only way to provide for another Wilson's Summer Garden NOW OPEN FOR THE SEASON FROM JUNE 1st to SEPTEMBER 30th, 1920 The Place For Your Private Plenics and Dancing Parties.

We are unable in the light of the court's decision to see how the order can ever have a regular meeting again, but happily, the question does not end there—it goes to a court of the final resort—the supreme court, which to our mind will not set aside the will of the people, as set up by the jury's verdict on a technicality the court enhance, holding that the verdict was not in accordance with the evidence. There were 282 delegates present, and a quorum consisted of only six persons. Under the law, when six persons meet within the meaning of the statute for the purpose of holding a B. M. C. the meeting is regularly constituted, and the court has not, in our mind a right to suggest that a quorum is not representative of the membership in the country. Lot us all go to Wilmington where the regular B. M. C. will convene and pay no attention to the falsehoods and mispresentations being circulated by the Morris faction to the effect that the case has been finally settled and adjusted. Mrs. Geo., K.

AN OLD DEBT PAID There is great and too valuable joining among the membership and friends of the Vibury Moorhouse Episcopal Church S47 X Van Bitten Street, Topkapi, Kansas. This church on Monday, July 26, paid off the in ruage in debtedness which has been upon it for more than decade, during which time this struggling and historic church has paid interest in amount in excess of the original principle. So many the efforts had been made to cancel the debt until the members had lost faith in the ans lives to accomplish the task. In April Rev. S. H. Johns a formerly of Chanute, Kansas, was assigned to this charge by Bishop F. P. McConnell, at the first official meeting Rev. Johnson formulated a debt paying program and submitted it to the churches, it was accepted and a result in less than ninety days more deficiency was raised to free the church of the age old debt The pastor desires in this connection to express his sincere thanks to the many friends for their contributions, and to the various pastors of the city for their personal presence and words of encouragement, to the various church clubs for their work, to the whole membership for their loyalty. Some of whom contributed of their own personal earnings more than $25 each. In the midst of the financial campaign there was one person converted and united with the church. The District Superintendent, Rev. Griffin G. Logan, says all things consider this is the greatest accomplishment of any church in the Lincoln conference during his connection with said conference. The motto of this church is, all debts paid, a great revival and all benevolences raised. The Second Quarterly Conference was held Aug 12. The reports of the officers showed church in fine shape. The District Supt. was paid in full Mrs. Jesie Taylor, Secretary. --- Invocation, Rev W. C. Williams 11 Ceremonies by the U. B. F's. Resolutions.

The city of Kansas City, Kansas, and the race at large can point with pride to this undertaking AWAKENING OF PUBLIC OPINION That the trend of public opinion ward the treatment received by the Negro at the hands of the whites has taken a decided elation is of need to the many timely comments uppeiling in the leading papers of the country. The matter of education as applied to the Negro child has long been, in the end of public well-wishers of the race and loves of the nation of the people a of rate and equal politics It is well known that I am a Colored child! I am higher in art and education and the state in question has made friends appropriated for me to use the Colored children one put with the stamps of the fonts is as shown by the following figures taken from a New England paper reco- nitive. One four Southern states is now using $ for teaching its 25,000 white children and $175 per capita for teaching its 20,000 Color- colored children. But this is not all it goes further into the dealings of the educational officials in their dealings with children of the Negro Race. In fifteen of the Southern States and the District of Columbia the teachers of white children receive at the rate of $10.22 for each child. The teachers of the Colored children receive a compensation at the rate of $2.50 for each child." In view of this startling revelation coming at it does in the midst of the Presidential election we ask what is the future going to do about it? PLEASANTON, KANSAS Mr. and Mrs. G. W.

The idea of having a Negro State Fair originated with J. Coody Johnson, who is the founder and President of the Fair. The object of the fair is to promote and encourage agriculture and live stock raising among the Negro citizens of our state. Too many people of our race are leaving the farm for the already overcrowded cities, and increasing the high cost of living; and in order to bring our people up to their true worth we are offering premiums for live stock, agricultural and domestic arts Exhibits. The Negro has this assurance that he will have a chance to compete for prizes against members of his own race to be judged by Judges of his own selection. Here is a chance to encourage your boy and girl to do something that will be a credit as well as profit to themselves. Just what you produce and exhibit will be shown at the fair. If you have a fine horse, cow, pig or other domestic animal bring them to the fair. The good housewife will have a chance to compete with other women of her own Nationality, in clothing, needle work, and all other arts in which women are interested. Remains will be given to the boys and girls Clubs for their exhibits. There is no better way to advertise your business than by bringing an exhibit to the fair. LOCATION—The grounds are located on a beautiful elevation where you can see the surrounding country for miles, on J. Coody Johnson's vast Ranch, the finest Ranch and Farms owned by any Negro in Oklahoma. The grounds are electric lighted, at night, and presents a picture long to be remembered. It is easy of access, being on the main highway through Seminole County State Highway from all points east and west, north and south lead to this fair ground. A few gallons of gasoline will bring you in your "car" with the whole family to the greatest fair ever attempted by Negroes, here you can have four days of real pleasure. Amusements of all kinds for all classes of people. A splendid race track is being prepared where horse races, auto races, and cycle races will take place. Some of the best horses owned by our people will be at the fair. Airplanes in which you can ride and see the whole country will make daily ascensions J, COODY JOHNSON, President.
