April 20.—What is said to have been the largest funeral Kansas City has seen for years occurral when Nelson C. Crews, late editor and owner of the Kansas City Sun, was buried here last Saturday. The best description of funeral is the following from the K. C. Call: "Before the altar where he had no often stood, in the presence of a throng as vast as he ha was awaived on hiscessions as the General Conference, Nelson C. Stews, editor and first citizen, was given his last farewell last Saturday. His body lay in state until the opening of the ceremony at 1:00 o'clock. There the many who knew him had gone and left a flower, until tier upon tier they rose making the whole sacred altar back to the choir loft, a marvel of color. As early as ten o'clock people began to gather and when the Vason's exporting the family came, hundreds gave up their seats that the Order might assemble around the bier. "Prof. J. E. Herriford, his friend from boyhood days in Chillocothe, read the obituary and directed the services. Grand Master, Eugene G. Lacey, presided over the Masons. Rev. Wittenberg preached the funeral. The service was brief, the last of the procession leaving the church before four o'clock. Pilchop Vernon, on hearing of his friend's death in New York City, came at once, arriving the day of the funeral. He spoke for possibly ten minutes in his illimitable way, pointing out the virtues of the dead and putting a wreath on his memory. Following him came Bishop Parks. The remains which had lain in state up to the beginning of the service were not further reviewed. The procession, preceded by a band, slowly wended its way eastward, the Templars, with swords reversed, leading the way. At the grave, the Masons finished their burial and benediction was by Bishop Verdon. "Floral gifts cost thousands of dollars. Bleeding heart, broken wheel, gates ajar, 'No' wreath, heep, and many others too numerous to mention were worked out in beautiful flowers. Three cars were needed to transport them. --- PAXICO, KANSAS Mrs. Wm. Kurt returned from the Hospital last week. Her friends were glad to see her so greatly improved. Mr. and Mrs. C. C.

New York, May 1.—President Harding has broken silence on the Tuskegee hospital situation to inform the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, that the institution on Tuskegee grounds, for the care of colored veterans of the World War, is to be manned entirely by colored personnel, including colored doctors and nurses. This decision ends the fear that had prevailed for some time, that an attempt would be made through the Veteran's Bureau to man the colored hospital with white doctors and nurses eating only menial labor for colored people. * The letter of Mr. Christian directed to the Association, containing the good news, is as follows: THE WHITE HOUSE Washington April 28, 1927 "My dear Mr. Soligman: Your communication of April 19 has been submitted to the President and he directs me to make reply and say that the task of reeling and completing the colored staff for the management and administration of Junkeege Hospital. WALDEN COLLEGE DEDICATES NEW SITE AND INAUGURATES ITS NEW PRESIDENT Nashville, Tenn., April 23. The friend- faculty and students of Walden College met on the grounds of the present site to dedicate the property to the service of God and humanity, and to inaugurate the new President, T. R. Davis. The legislative services were conducted by Dr. I. Garland Penn, Corresponding Secretary of the Board of Education for Negroes, of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The participants on the program, the ministers of the Tennessee Conference, and the faculty formed a procession which started from Braden Hall. The school orchestra played the procession a athose on the program took their seats on the platform. The exercises were opened by the congregation eluding "All Had the Power of Jesus' name." Dr. Penn introduced Bishop Frank M. Bristol who noted as Master of ceremonies. The greetings from the alumni were presented by the Rev. M. J. Ellis, he spoke of some of the trials through which the school had passed, but expressed the appreciation of the alumni to the Board for bringing the school back into the system of schools, and pledged the support of the alumni and the ministers of the Tennessee Conference. Greetings were then delivered from the sister institutions in Nashville, Dr. F. A. McKenzie speaking for Fick University, Prof. O. A. Jeffries for Roger Williams and Prof. W. J. Hale for the A. and I. State Normal. Each speaker pledged the hearty cooperation of his school with Wablet the new day and larger opportunity. President M. S. Dvage of Rust College brought greetings from the schools of the Board of Education in other sections. Many letters were also received from the heads of other institutions, and congratulations for the larger outlook of the school and the success of the new president. Thomas P. Holgate of Northwestern University spoke as a member of the Board and pledged the continued interest of the board in the future of the school. Dr A J. Nast, who is also a member of the Board, spoke in reminiscence mood of the character of Bishop Walden and recommended his life, as a study to the students, Dr. Nast gave the school a thousand dollars. Secretary P. J. Mavecty paid a tribute to Dr. John Braden, who was for thirty years president of the school, and to all those who were instrumental in the early days of making the present day possible. When Dr. Pennrose to speak instead of Dr. John L. Seaton, who could not be present, he announced that the Lexington Conference had voted to accept Walden as its Conference school and to turn over the money it had on Capital to Have the Colored Staff That White Doctors and Run Negro Hospital. tal is well under way. It is the plan of the President, to man this institution completely with a colored personnel. It is not an easy matter to perfect such an organization under the limitations of the time, but the program is being worked out in a most encouraging and gratifying way. The Tinkkego experiment is going to afford the trained representatives of the colored race to give proof of their capacity and efficiency in a highly important public service. You're sincerely, Geo. B. Christian, Jr. Secretary to the President Mr. Herbert J. Feligman, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City." The letter from Mr. Christian follows two appeals to President Harding, soak by the N. A. A. C. P., both pointing out that the effect of depriving colored doctors and nurses of the opportunity to treat colored war veterans, in a hospital designed for them exclusively and built upon ground given to the government by Tukegre Institute would be most unfortunate. hand for use at Wahlen. This is to be the beginning of the fund for the Lexington Conference Chapel to be erected on the school grounds. Bishop I. B. Scott at this juncture presented President T. R. Davis to Bishop Frank M. Bristol who delivered the charge to the President in the most classic terms. He called the attention of the President-elect to the magnitude of his responsibility in the greatness of the people he represented. He reminded him that the great French prize for the best romance was won that year by a Negro; that the most delicate operation in surgery on the human heart was done by a Philadelphia Negro, and that one of the most original artists of America was the Painter, Tanner, a Negro. He further charged the President with the responsibility that was his to prepare the students for the duties that they are to assume. President Davis accepted the trust saying he realized "that unselfish service is God like and a vital principle of the Christian religion." He said: "This institution from its beginning has stood pre-eminently for education for service." "Our determined aim, in both prayer and activity, is that our institution continue standing for education for service—service as consecrated and as efficient as our ability, the encouraging circumstances, and the bright outlook of the college may permit." The Chorus sang, "Gloria." (Morart) "Hallelujah Chorus" (Handel). The girls quartette sang tw jubilee selections which entranced and delighted the audience. After the exercises the visitors and friends were carried over the grounds and through the buildings, thus ending a long occasion for Walden College.
