Green, of New Orleans, La., Supreme Chancellor, Sir Ernest Tidrington, of Evansville, Indiana, Supreme Vice Chancellor, and Supreme Worthy Counsellor, and Major-General R. R. Jackson, of Chicago, Ill., head of the Uniformed Rank of the order, spent two days in the city last week in session with the Supreme Executives of the Grand THE NEW YORK TIMES THE MISSING MAN WAS A MISSING MAN WAS A MISSING MAN HON. B. W. GREEN, Supreme Chancellor, Lodge of the state of Kansas, consisting of the Grand Chancellor, Dr. S. H. Thompson, Mrs Norene Davis, Grand Worthy Counselor, Court of Calanthe, Supreme Representatives, James H Guy and R. H. Wade, W. C. Brown, Grand Treasurer, F. M. Roberts, Miss Mattle A. Perkins, G. Rec. of Dep, Miss Bertha Garrett, G. R. of D, Dr. I. H. Anthony, Mrs Magg. M. Foran, G. W. Inx. and Brigadier General Thos. Kennedy, and Mrs Mary King at which time a meeting was held at which they outlined plans and details in connection with the Supreme session which will be held in the city of Topeka in August, 1921. This meeting of the council determined the fact that Topela was sufficiently able to entertain such an unusual organization in size. At this time the Supreme heads plated the stamp of approval --- M. B. upon the plans as outlined by the Grand officers, and made the final and official announcement that the session would be held here. This organization is one of the largest and probably the wealthiest racial body in the world, with a membership of over 150 000. At the coming session in this city the Council estimates that over 7000 representatives and delegates will be in attendance, of this number, 6000 will be uniformed Knights who will encamp at the Fair Grounds for six days. THE NEW YORKER THE NEW YORKER All the regulation field equipment is used including mess tents, field kitchens etc, which used by an army in the field. Daily inspection and exhibition drills are held on the parade grounds. The citizens of Topeka are expected to throw open their homes to these visitors and give them a royal time while here. Of this number several hundred of the delegates are women who are representatives of Court of Calanthe. The committee on housing is now asking those who will care for delegates to get in touch with them and list your homes and the number you can care for. Miss Mattie A. Perkins, Chairman of the committee can be reached by calling telephone number 3100 of 3983. The sessions will be held in the Memorial building and Representative hall. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 4, 1921 [Image of a man in a suit with a tie]. Dr. SOLOMON H. THOMPSON,Grand Chancellor of Kansas The voters of the city of Topeka will be called upon at the coming city election to vote for a mayor and city commissioners. One of the most important offices in that list, is that of the commissioner of Water and Light. We say the most important for the reason that the life and health of over 50,000 citizens depend upon this one department for the continuous stream of pure, lifesaving water which goes into their homes. This is an absolute necessity as the people want pure water. Mr. Stanfield who is serving his first term as commissioner of this department, has left no stone unturned to make Topeka one of the healthiest spots on the globe, so far as water is concerned. He has consolidated the water works and electric light plant, which means the saving of thousands of dollars to the taxpayers of the city. He now has in the process of completion, a filtration station in which the water will undergo a process which will remove various properties and soften the water, making it better suited for use in laundering and reducing the need of soap and other substances used in softening water in the home. The water problem has always been a burdensome one to the city, and since Mr. Stanfield has been in office, a great relief has been experienced in this connection. He is fully competent and well qualified for the office and the voters should not hesitate in the matter of giving him a large vote to succeed himself. He found the department practically in financial straits and greatly in need of improvements. He has increased the efficiency of the two departments to a high degree and is deserving of the vote of each and every citizen of Topeka. KANSAS CITY, KANSAS On Monday afternoon, February 21st, 1921, Rebecca Tabernacle, No. II, closed their rally or contest between the Methodist and Baptist with a Washington Tea Party, Mrs Laura Allen as George Washington, and Mrs Alice Elam representing Martha Washington.

P. the contestants, Mrs Mary Moorehead, president of the Methodist club and Mrs. Myrtle Harvey, president of the Baptist club came forward and reported the following amounts: Dtr. Moorehead, reported the sum of $111.17. Dtr. Harvey reported the sum of $132.70, making a total of $243.87. Dtr. Harvey having raised the largest amount, was awarded the prize of $1000. Dtr. Moorehead was awarded $500. -The most beautiful feature was the love and affectionate feelings between the two presidents. They both thanked the H. P. and Daughters for their loyal support and efforts given during the campaign. Dtr. Pauline Woodwork, H. F. Dtr. Mary A. Gray, Reporter, REEVESVILLE, OKLA. The people of Reevestille, Okla. have begun to make a general complaint against having to pay taxes and do not receive any accommodation from the city. There are over a dozen stores here in our community and the people should stand by our local merchants. Mr. Tom Wright has gone into the draymage business at a side line. Our school is to close on the 1st of March. Some arrangement should be made to have school for the children, if only a pay school. Mrs. Clara Smith is painting her house which adds greatly to the looks of that part of the community. Mr. A. Copeland, our leading merchant is constructing a brick building. The Bud Barber Grocery is getting many compliments for the fair dealing given the people and the sanitary way he keeps things. Rev. Devers left Monday night for Oklahoma City to engage in a series of meetings. Mr. Johnson who has been confined to his bed for several weeks is up. Mr. Watson late of Arkansas, has purchased the residence of Mrs. Marle Jackson, who will leave in a short while to join her father in Kansas City. Mr. J. M. Reed, late of Mississippi, is making a success with his store. Mr. R. Abernathy, our local Real estate man is closing some big deals. The A. M. E. church when completed will be an ornament to the city. Rev. Bradshaw is making extensive preparation to entertain the big Garvey meeting on the 25th and 26th Reevesville needs a dry goods store, drug store and a play house. Mr R W, Meridith has opened his casket and coffin factory. fresher and clean history. Macedonia is making much success under the new pastorage. The juss word in Beevesville, is, "Clean your back yard and paint up" The time has come for the citizens of this community to say who shall teach their children and not a bunch of Negro school peddlers in Muskogee. Never in the history of this community has our girls had a chance to teach here. They have been forced to drag several miles off in the country while women who are less proficient have taken the job. We must stand by our leaders, merchants, real estate men and everything the citizens here start that is for the good of the community. Our community has shown quite a christian spirit in the way they have looked after and cared for Humphrey Miller. This is the kind of christianity which we should all advocate. Recessville is not in the city limits of Muskogee and we should settle the matter once for all. Many of our all people have lost their property thus this rotten regime. Let us get together and break down every crime that is being secretly traced in our little town. We should expose the gambler bootlegger and the petty thieves. There are too many 'chuck' joints for the good of this place. Let us organize and have gds put in this place, so that we can see the horrid cost predator who sells his cool for $10.00 and $50.00 per ton. We must demand a larger car from the company. Our women must be less hostile while on the cars. The white agents must be kept out of Negro homes where they are getting too common with our women. Big thieves are happening. The big guns of the nation from a Negro point of view are coming. Bishop John Hearst on last Friday night Dr. DuBois on the 9th. Blind Boone on the 8th, and Rosemary Simmons the later part of March. The Garvey movement is growing intensively CLAREMORE, OKLA. Wake up Claramore! This city at present is suffering a great shortage in houses. There are several who wish to locate here, but cannot do so an account of not being able to secure a house. What we must PRES. PECK ASKS APPROPRIATION For Western University, Kansas City, Kans. President F Jesse Park was in Topeka this week where he appeared before the Waya and Means committee of the Senate in regard to the appropriation for Western University. His budget called for over $200,000 for equipment and maintenance and building. He states that the school is crowded and is in urgent need of a new dormitory. The church is spending over $45,000 on improvements which is only a little help towards keeping the growing and expanding condition of the school up to a high standard of efficiency. The Senate committee gave him a very respectful consideration and questioned him very closely on the needs of the institution which he explained seemingly to the satisfaction of the body. He further stated that he was asking for nothing more than what was absolutely needed in fact there was a need for more than had been asked for in the budget. In answer to the question by a member of the committee as to why they needed so many typwriters, he is not that the institution was giving the young people a business course in keeping with the great demand for stenographers, typists and bookkeepers, and that he could not supply the demands for young Colored people with business training. The Colored business and professional people of the race were clamoring for them. His attention was called to the banking system which was instituted under the late President Kealing, and which news handles several thous- DAN CUPID SCORES CULMINATION OF A PRETTY ROMANCE Mr. James Napoleon Johnson, unable longer to concentrate his mind upon his duties as a lieutenant in one of Uncle Sam's companies, secured a leave of absence and hastened to Muskogee where he took unto himself a bride.

APPROPRIATION University, ity, Kans. and dollars of the teachers and students money. He informed the committee that this taught the students economy in the spending of their own money as well as to give them the training in that particular line. The Student bank has been a blessing to the young people as they do not carry money around in their pockets where it is accessible and tempting to be stolen by those who have none to be stolen. A number of students are taking the course in connection with the commercial department. They have a depository thru which their checks are cleared just the same as the banks in the city their funds being deposited in one of the city banks. President Peck has just returned from the session of the Bishop's Council in Dallas Texas. He reports that the session was almost as large as a meeting of the General Conference. He attended the meeting of the College presidents' which was held jointly with the Council. At their session a better understanding was had in connection with the general scheme of the work of the institutions over the country. A plan of reciprocity was recommended and adopted whereby all first class schools will affiliate in such manner that no student can impose upon one college and leave there and re-enter another and receive admittance without any proof of his former connection. He was highly pleased with the beginning of such a movement, and predicts a splendid result and more and better work among the colleges. die Riley and Maggie Coffey, wore dresses and picture hats the color of the rainbow, which harmoniously bore out the title, Rainbow wedding.
