NOV.20 IS DATE
SET FOR EXTRA
SESSION
Harding: to Pass Anti-
Lynching Bill With
Ship Measure
Washington, Oct. 16—Congress is to be convening an extraordinary session on Nov. 20. As told exclusively in 100 on Nov. 20, President Harding will issue the call immediately after election. He means to drive the Ship Subsidy Bill through, and while the House is wrestling with that the Senate will be expelled to put the Anti-
Lynching bill over.
The calling up of the latter measure comes as a complete and not particularly pleasant surprise to the average legislator, who is as British about this as about the ship subsidy, but for the sake of the Negro vote in Ohio and other Northern states certain pictures were made and it is the intention to redeem these plebges as soon as possible.
The chief purpose of the President in bringing the Senate, and House together before the regular date for the winter session, is to avoid an extra session after March.
It is known that the Daughters liquor rulling will not bring in all of the dry votes for the Subsidy Bill though that was hoped. Many members of the house from the Middle and Far West are unalterably opposed to all forms of subsidy and will continue to oppose the bill. While the chances for passing is have been improved, favorable action has not been entirely made certain. It will be a fairly close vote in both branches. /
A long fight will be waged against the subsidy in the Senate.
The Anti-Lynching Bill was passed in the House on the distinct understanding that it would be killed in the Senate. Later, Lodge all-covered it necessary to do something to save himself up in Massachusetts. So the bill was favorably reported. But when it was allowed to die the Negro voters began preparations to swamp Republi-
can candidates in states where they are a controlling factor. Even Lodge was menaced.
It became necessary for the Republic can leaders to give positive pledges that the Dyer measure would be brought to a vote early in the next session. With this promise they hope to hold the Negro votes in line until after Nov. 7.
It is said that with the influence of the President the bill will receive the requisite number of votes.
Many Democrats Numbered Among Bill's Friends
New York City, Oct. 13.—In accordance with its often published stand of supporting those men, regardless of party who voted for the Dyer Bill when the Bill was passed by the House of Representatives on January 20, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People today made public again a list of those Democratic Congressmen who voted for the Bill:
The Advancement Association urges all colored voters in the Congressional Districts in the various states where these men are standing for reelection to lend their support to their reelection.

MECHANICS BANK HOLDS MEETING
P. Edward Perry Again Elected President Of Institution.
At an enthusiastic meeting of the share holders of the Mechanies Investment Company, President P. Edward Perry and the old board of directors received the hearty endorsement of a half-hundred stockholders. The meeting was short, though with the spirit of confidence and good feeling, and the reports of the officers were received with prolonged applause.
The shareholders were made acquainted, rather their memories were refreshed with the trying times of the fall of 1821 for banks the country over, and they realized that it was the business acumen of the officers of the company, which brought the Midwestern safety through those trying times.
The shareholders showed by their votes and their expressions that they were satisfied with the manner in which the president and his board of directors had managed the affairs of the institution. The remarkable earnings of the institution during the past twelve months was testimony enough, and every stock holder left the meeting determined to back up, as never before the pre-declart and his board of directors.
The president announced to the stockholders, that the board had decided to declare a dividend of not less than eight per cent this year. This, of course met with the heavy approval of all present. The meeting lasted a little over an hour and a half and was pronounced by all who were present as being the most harmonious of the klud they had ever attended.
It marks a turning point in the upward struggle this institution has been making for several years, and the prospects for the future are bright indeed.
The following were elected as members of the board of directors: P. E. Perry, H. C. Huger, Daniel Simmons, A. H. Dunbar, David Beasley, A. J. Ransier, E. L T small, J. B. Moultrie, Henry Pearson, R. E. Pharrow, Dr. Van Bureau, Frank Dillworth, W. W. Warthen-William Jefferson and R. W. Gaud-den.

Dallas Texas, Oct. 17—(Associated Negro Press)—Earl Mayfield, the Ku Klux Klan candidate for United States Senator, will get it is being declared in all sections of the state a large Negro vote. Hill McDonald of Fort Worth has come out with the declaration that he proposes to cast his vote for Mayfield. McDonald's word goes a long way with Texas colored people. Thee "Lily Whites" have driven McDonald to this action, his friends declare.
George E. B. Reddy of Houston, an independent democrat, is being supported by the Republicans, known here as July whites, for United States Senate. John T. Adams, chairman of the of the Republican National Committee has given his endorsement. It is reported to Reddy's candidacy.

MOTON ADDRESSES PASSENGERS
Tuskegee Inst. Ala., Oct 17. (Associated Negro Press)—A wireless message received in New York City from the steamship Paris, states that Dr. Robert Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who is en route to France made strong appeal in behalf of the French seamen, at the Sunday evening ship concert, at which time many prominent Americans spoke. In response to the appeals made, seven thousand franks were contributed by the pas-sencers.
Dr. Moton is en route to Paris from which point he will go to Glasgow, Scotland, where he will be the principal speaker before the Scottish churches Missionary Congress at the morning, and afternoon sessions of October 17. While aboard Dr. Moton will address bodies in Scotland, England and France.

New York City. Oct. 13—Announcement was made today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, that the Knights of Allen of the A. M. B. church had promised to give one third of their initiation fee to the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P.
This information was contained in a report from Indianapolis of William Pickens, Field Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P.
AL ARRANGEMENT WN IN TEXAS RACE either. Supporting Paddy won't help the situation for the colored vote, they say. Pretty bitter political stuff, this supporting a Ku Klux Klan, they further aver, but at least, it helps them to keep hold of their identity as a part of the Republican party in the state. Better a Ku Klux than a total elimination, is the cry of the colored voter's hour.
"Gooseuck Bill," as he is familiar and somewhat affectionately called by the colorful people throughout the state recently held a meeting in Port Worth where he lives, which organized an independent movement that finally indorsed Mayfield. As this, was done in the open it is a reasonable deduction that the colored vote is on the verge of deserting the Republican ship in the state of Texas. What the state thinks about Negroes and the Klan sleeping in the same political bed no one at this writing knows. And there you are with a big package to deliver.
Colored Division Pledge To Contribute To Fund
The General Convention of the Episcopal Church which met recently in Portland Oregon made some note worthy contributions to our group. Of course nothing more could have been expected with Dr. Wilmer of Atlanta and Dr. Wing of Savannah on the grounds calling upon the 5000 delegates to act Christianity rather than talk it. Hence the first response to their appeal was a resolution offer-
New York Oct 10—An interesting figure in the city's circle of young folk who are making headway in literary circles is Miss Amarish Reed, daughter of L. S. Reed, a prominent real estate man of Corona, L. I. Miss Reed, who is just eighteen years old, is private secretary to Edna Worthley Underwood, an eminent white novelist and translator of Balkan and Russian literature.

ARRIVAL OF THE BISHOP OF SAVANNAH
Touching Scene of Welcome At St. Francis Convent
A scene of unprecedented interest in the annals of St. Benedict's school, D. Gordon street, took place on Tuesday Oct. 17 at 12:45 p. m.
Right Reverend Michael J. Keyes, D. D., Bishop of Savannah, accompanied by Very Reverend J. D. Mitchell, V. G., and Very Rev. Alonzo J. Ols, pastor of St. Augustine's Colored Mission Washington, D. C., arrived at St. Francis's Convent where he was received, by Rev. Father Peter, pastor of St Benedict's episcopal Rev., Father Hesse, pastor of St. Mary's and Rev. Father Loby, pastor of the immaculate Conception church of Augusta, Ga.
ART the children attending St. Ben-collet's school, which is conducted by the Franciscan Sisters, each child being equipped with an American flag, were in position outside the convent, where the formal reception took place.
The gorgeous array of papal colors which draped the complete exterior told its own tale of reverent welcome and unified Catholicity, while the national emblem, the American flag, which spoke in mute language from almost every aperture, afforded a convincing assurance that a Catholic heart is a heart "For God and Country." Over the front entrance floated "Welcome" in papal colors, surmounted by the Bishop's Crest.
"When the Right Reverend, Bishop and Very Reverend gentlemen arrived the children's joy found expression in song, for words are often impatient in expressing the sentiments of our heart. "Welcome, Welcome, Welcome" the children sang; so touching were those youthful and almost infant voices, that one felt it was an echo along the corridors of time of the little children who sang to welcome the Master's glorious entry into Jerusalem.
The Right Reverend Bishop alighted graciously and accepted two bournets, the one natural, the other spiritual, from two little girls. He spoke in a few impressive words of his deep appreciation of the generous welcome recorded him, and the close relationship which should exist between him and his little ones in the near future. He also expressed the deep interest which he took in them, and promised to renew his visit at 8 p.m. on the night following his concession. October 18. The children applauded with prolonged clapping of hands. Kneeling all present received the Right Reverend Bishop's blessing and amid cheers and waving of flags the distinguished visitor took his leave.
Amid the assembled who came to do honor to the new Bi-shop were not-freedear the Sister of the Most Pure Heart of Mary, Mr. M. A. O'Blyne, Dr. L. B. Martin, Mr. and Mrs. Appreau, Mr. King, Mr. Cannell, Mrs. M. Pluckney, Mrs. Jordan and many others.
Newark, N. J. Oct. 11—(Associated Negro Press)—The vote in this state appears to be climbing into the Governor Edwards' band wagon. Not on any wet or dry issue, but on a "square deal" issue. Senator Frelinghuysen dodged the Lyer Bill. The story is that he saw it coming and he ducked the blow. Hence, it is declared by those who affect to know, the colored vote is about to hand that a bird that bites rather than a dove with an olive branch in its beak. Thusly are we being given another sign that the colored man's memory of "befo" de war times is growing weak and that he is showing a decided inclination to throw the "Lineon Idol" into the sea of his fullest forgetfulness.
The first sign of the revolt in the Ninth Congressional District last summer where the colored voters spring a young colored attorney, William B. Brandon, as their choice for the congressional nomination. Unfortunately, they now are claiming a supposedly strong white man threw his hat in the ring, in an effort to wrest from R. Wyne Parker the present encumbent, the honor of representing the district
ARCHBISHOP PIMENTA DIED RECETNTLY
Was. One of World's Greatest Negro Scholars
Marianna Brazil, Oct. 14—The Archbishop Don Silverio Gomes Pimenta at the City of Marianna, State of Minas Geraes, Brazil, died recently. This announcement proclaims the end of one of the world's great scholars as well as the passing out of one of the notable figures in the Roman Catholic Church on the Western Hemisphere. He was a Negr ofull-blooded. He was the intellectual pride of Brazil, as a member of his country's Academy of Letters he was an important directing force in the national endeavor to seek and to hold a firm first place among the most influential nations of world. He was recognized in Brazil as the social equal of any man on the Western Hemisphere. Not because he was black, but because he measured up to the intellectual standards accepted as the highest in Western World life. He was at heart a gentleman; he attaches a truly gifted scholar; he birth a Brazilian of the fullest patriotism. This was all Brazil aided of him.

Dr. Loring B.

Whitewashed of
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 17' (Presidio News Service)—To 'fell the "truth" "Jasper county is some county and missionaries can find lots of work there. Harvey K. Persons, sheriff of Jasper county, and his brother, W. P. Persons, were acquitted of a charge of peonage last Tuesday afternoon in the United States District Court. The jury was out only a few minutes.
The charge was based on the statements of Robert Lee Griggs, a Negro, who asserted that the Persons brothers forced him to work on their plantation in Jasper county without pay, threatening his life if he attempted to escape.
The defendants, it is said, introduced testimony to show that they paid Grigg's fine when he was convicted of a misdemeanor, and that he agreed to work until the account had been squared.
in the lower national house of representatives. They were led to believe that this white aspirant had considerable strength among the white Republicans in the district and, by deserting Brandon, they could the more easily deprone Parker.
This proved to be a trap. In the primaries Parker polled quite the full white Republican vote and was nominated. Brandon polled 1200 votes and of course fell far behind in the race. Nothing doing this time. To make sure that their resentment shall have full and determined play, they propose to cast as near a solid colored vote for Edwards as it is possible to get out. That is the present program of the Negro rebels.
And this is the way in which your correspondent looks at the situation. If the e colored men and women mean all they say and stick Senator Freddy Husen is beaten to invertable frazzle. If they falter and fizzle he goes back by an old time Henilecan majority and that is all there is about the whole question. It might turn out to be a real good fight.
KU KLUX KLAN APPROACHING MINISTERS
Methodist Conferences Refuse to Condemn Klan
Chicago, Ill.; Oct. 17—(Associated Negro Press.)—Has the nefarious Ku Klux Klan got a "Hook" in the back of the great Methodist, Episcopal church, the church of human justice in America?
The Methodist Episcopal church, has nearly 400,000 colored members three colored bishops, Bishop R. E. Jones, and Bishop Camphor, now active; and, Scott, retired.
The Rock River Conference of the Methodist church, did a remarkable thing last week at the annual conference. After passing a resolution condemning the Klan, the next day a motion to reconsider was offered and the 'resolution of condemnation' was withdrawn. The Ohio conference too refused to condemn it last month. Protesting activities of the Ku Klux Klan are evidently continuing in New York City with unabated energy. They are now sending to ministers of the Methodist Episcopal church a circular letter, addressed 'To Protestant
Men of American birth, in which assertion is made that the "Klan is a semi-religious body" and is bringing men back into the Protestant church." One of the leading ministers of New York City received one of these circulars through the mail, the Klan people evidently thinking he was a white man. The minister, forwarded the circular to The New York Age with the following comment:
"Included so unwill find, this Ku Klux letter. The sender knew the New York conference was a white conference, supposed that all the members were white. I am under the impression that all the white ministers are being approached by this, insulting, penny, and probably many have already been captured. Do you ask what is the matter wit bith church? Many of them are, Christless." The blank pledge sent with the clr
I am a native-white Gentile Protestant American. Born in "to believe in, and am a supporter of, the Constitution of the United States. I agree to keep secret whatever, information may be confided to me relating to the Knights of the Kū Klux Klan,"

BAPTIST TO CONVENE IN ST.LOUIS,MO.
Dr.-P. J. Bryint Being Groomed For Presidency 1901
St. Louis, Mt., Oct. 18—(Associated Negro Press)—The early part of December will mark the opening of the National Baptist Convention in this city. It promises to be a big event. Coung in the wake, as it does, of the recent deaths of the two leading Negro Baptists in America its course is bound to be watched with a deal of interest by all the peoples in the country.
Originally it was intended to hold the convention in the City of Los Angeles, California, this year. The great railroad strike balked the carrying out of the plan. As a result, St. Louis has been chosen as the meeting place and our city is just now up to its very ears in the work of elaborate preparations, for the big meeting.
As the time draws nearer to the time "Union Talk" is getting into the center of the stage. Morris and Boyd have been gathered home to their fathers. There is no declaration that those two great leaders of men were the primary cause of the split which armyed Baptist brother against his brother Baptist during recent years. Yet it is, being recognized that their temperamental characteristics had much to do with the making of the conditions that broke the organization into two separate bodies. It is hoped that the wounds will be healed at the

A. L. HOLSEY VISITS, WAYCROSS, Waycross, Ga., Oct 16—A. L. Holsey secretary of The National Negro Business League, spent today in Waycross as the guest of the Waycross Negro Business League. The day was a very busy one for the National Secretary from the time he reached the city at 6:45 a.m. until he left at 11:15 p.m. over the "Dixie Flyer" for Athens, Ga. During the morning he was taken to a number of business enterprises of the city and at 2 p.m. he was the guest of honor at a model luncheon of the Executive Committee of the local League which was attended, by twenty-two of the leading business and professional men of the city. The luncheon was prepared by the Desoto Cafe. At this meeting the Secretary had a heart to heart talk with the men on the benefits to be derived from a trade boosting campaign among the Negroes. After a general discussion of the subject the League voted unanimously in favor of a trade boosting campaign.
After the luncheon Mr. Holsey was taken for a sight seeing trip over the city by J. O. McGraw, President of the local League, and several other business men of the city. A special meeting of the Business League had been called for S p. m. at which Mr. Holsey was the principal speaker.

Lester gave some lay claim to having sown the seed that brought, about the organization of excellent reasons in a short talk, why every man and woman should be a member of the Business League. Dr. A. H. Hinsman spoke on the "Agricultural advantages of Ware County" and Miss Beatrice B. Moorman rendered of a very excellent solo accompanied by Miss M. Norma Ellison.
At this point Mr. Holsey was introduced by Carlton W. Gaines who praised the secretary for the work he has been doing for the League and for the great success of the Northeast meeting. Mr. Holsey's address was con-structive and inspiring. He paid a high compliment to the Waycross league and stated that it was one of the Business Leagues of the country that was not only alive but actually bringing things to pass and stated that the National organization was proud of the accomplishments of the local league. He stated that the National Negro Business League did not claim credit for the organization of all the Negro business enterprises but it does many. He stated that the salvation of the Negro was in his commercial development. After the adjournment of the meeting the secretary was taken to the Standard Drug Store for refreshments after which he was accompanied to the station by a large number of members of the League and friends.

MASONIC NEWS
HARD TO UNDERSTAND
There is one thing I have never been able to understand and that is why so many men maintain their Masonic membership and regularly pay their dues who are never seen inside of a lodge or who take no part whatsoever in the active work of Premaasonry. It is granted that there is a tendency among men to ally themselves with those influences in the world which are strong and which will bring them prestige. It is a sort of personal vanity which possesses all of us and which makes us want to be seen in good company. This may perhaps be one reason why so many men continue their Masonic membership though never identified with the work of the society. In talking with a friend of mine the other day whom I have

known for twenty-five years, he disclosed the fact that he was a Mason in good standing and had been for nearly forty years. He still belonged to the lodge of his adoption and regularly paid dues therein but had never transferred his membership. I asked him why he never visited the local lodge or made himself known as a Mason. His plea was that in the stress of business he had but very little time to give outside matters, but that he had a high regard for the institution and valued his membership. No doubt may be the case with many. There are on the rolls of every lodge names of members who are practically unknown to the present coterie of officers and workers. There are those who criticise members of the fraternity who are not active in the work; but on the other hand the man who continues his membership though not active in the fraternity pays the institution a very high compliment. If there was not an element of stability and high character in Masonry it is doubtful if these men would pay dues year in and year out in order to retain their names on the lodge roll. The fact of the matter is that these men realize that it is a personal asset to be counted among those who are enrolled in the cause of Freemasonry and as long as they feel this way there should be no real criticism offered against them. Every year the worth of Freemasonry becomes more clearly demonstrated and proven. Today the institution is not really understood. It is largely subject to the will and caprice of those charged with administering its affairs; but there is today a demand for fixed Maconie policy out of which shall evolve a better conception of the purposes of Freemasonry and a practical fraternity—Illinois Freemason.
White-Man Rapes Negro
Buffalo N. Y., Oct. 13—A white rapist, found guilty of attack upon a nine-year-old colored girl of Buffalo, has gone to jail for from 6 to 20 years, due to the efforts of the Buffalo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The white man, Morris Delich, was convicted of rape. An appeal for a new trial for him was denied, according to the Buffalo branches report. The branch called the attention of the District Attorney's Office to the case and followed it through until sentence was imposed.
New York City, Oct. 13—Congress will probably be convened in extraordinary session on November 20, at which time passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is predicted by the New York World's Washington Correspondent, according to an announcement by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
The World has been a consistent opponent of the Dyer Bill but its Washington correspondent under date of October 12, states that while the House is wrestling with the Ship Subsidy Bill for consideration of which the special session will be primarily called, "the Senate will be expected to put the Anti-Lynching Bill over."
The New York World's correspondent further states:
"It becomes necessary for the Republican leaders to give positive pledges that the Dyer measure would be brought to a vote early in the next session. With this promise they hope to hold the Negro voters in line until after Nov. 7. "
"It is said that with the influence of the President, the bill will receive the reguliest number of votes."
At the same time, the chief Democrat organ in New York City, the New York Times, on October 13, spoke of the Anti-Lynching Bill as follows: "Next December, the matter will normally come up as unfinished business. It is possible that then it may be considered as one not of party interest but of national concern. By a pathologic agreement some act may be passed to put the stamp of Federal disapproval upon a form of lawlessness which brings the whole nation into disrepute."
The editorial of the New York Times arranged through the Anti-Lynching Crusaders whose New York Representative Mrs. James Weldon Johnson, called upon the editor of the Times and told him of the women's movement. The Time's editorial says of the Anti-Lynching Crusaders: "It is a hopeful sign that, in the new organization of a million women to stop lynching in the United States, directors from every Southern State are taking part."

ment: Conference, held in this city last week, was a notable success. It brought together one of the largest and most representative groups of Negro leaders ever assembled in America, and sounded a clarion call to high character and good citizenship that will be heard throughout the nation. Reenforcing the many eloquent and stirring speeches the Conference adopted a number of vigorous pronouncements on prohibition law enforcement, juvenile delinquency, education, vice crime, health and social morality, and on the relation of the Church, the home and the press to these several subjects. These reports were formulated by carefully chosen commissions and were referred to a Committee on Findings to be correlated into a single statement and given to the public. This statement will be most significant as representing the united voice of the Negro leadership of America. Its publication will be eagerly awaited.
The Conference was notable not only for the number and distinction of its speakers, but also for the harmony and unanimity that characterized their utterances. In the whole program there was not a discordant note, every speaker pleaded geloquently for temperance, law enforcement, high moral character and good citizenship. Among them may be mentioned Bishop R. D. Jones, A. J. Carey and I. B. Scott Doctors W. G. Alexander, I. Garland Penn, J. W. Waters, W. M. Blair, J. T. Moppins, Alfred Lawless, L. D. Jordan, Russell A. Brown, W. A. C. Hughes, I. H. Jones, M. L. Vaughters, J. N. C. Coggin, R. G. Morris, N. D. Shambourger, Isaac Fisher, George D. Haynes, J. C. Caldwell, B. F. Abbott,

In addition to the above named Congressman Anthony J. Griffin, representing the 22nd Congressional District of New York,uggle a splendid speech in favor of the Bill. He was unable to be present at the time the vote was taken on the measure. He, however, supported the Dyer Bill legally from the beginning and was of great assistance in securing its passage by the House.
The Advancement Association also calls attention again to those Republican Congressmen who voted right on the Anti-Lynching Bill and urged colored voters to do all in their power to return them to Congress at the November elections.
Baptist To Convene In St. Louis, Mo.
(Continued from page 1)
forthecoming meeting and all Baptists,
after its adjournment, will be found
sitting together under one vine and
figl tree.
While no engineering is under way seeking a successor to the late lamented Dr. Morris, it is evident that the problems before the convention call for new and able statesmanship and enough is let out that St. Louis is inclined to the belief that the selection lies between Dr. P. James Bryant, well known politician of Atlanta, and the Rev. Dr. Lacey K. Williams of the famed Olivet church of Chicago. It would appear that our city has no choice as between these two attainable leaders in the councils of the Baptist convention. What is termed "A workable program for the National Baptist Convention" has been issued recently by Dr. Williams, and is attracting wide spread interest.
Its chief features are convention ownership and control as against board ownership and control: Evangelism and Mission progress with well trained preachers, laymen, evangelists and slugers; religious institutes and more effective church extension and building; the cooperation of the other standardized Baptist organization including both the Northern and Southern white Baptists, preserving however, the conventional autonomy school, with an endowment. For the National Baptist Seminary at Nashville and field: the giving of great r opportunity to the women through their auxiliary to serve taking the
some position as the local missionary circle take to their local churches; a financial program which would stress the spirit of giving rather than does materialism; the use of religions in influences by this, the largest organized group of the race, in helping solve the world wide racial and domestic civil problems of the Negro. Special railroad rates will be given to delegates and visitors to the convention. The general program will be issued in a few weeks.

Following in the wake of the General Convention was the National Conference of Colored Church Workers of the Episcopal Church which convened at the Church of the Crucifixion in Philadelphia last week. At this conference Archdeacon Brown of Savannah presented also a resolution which was adopted calling upon the colored parishes and missions of the Episcopal church to match the Woman's Auxiliary gift by raising during this triennial an additional $2000 for the same project. Of most interest to Savannah, is the fact that this great gatering of over 250 Priests and layworkers will hold their next meeting in 1925 at
St. Augustine's church, this city at which time this the largest offering ever given by, our group in a body will be placed upon the altar of St. Augustine's church.
The second item of interest is the appended resolution presented by Dr. Wing as clipped from the pages of the Living Church, a periodical published in Milwaukee, Wis.:
Resolution
"Whereas, there has been disclosed in recent times with ever increasing violence, the practice of contravening due and proper legal procedure, through unregulated and uncontrolled mass action in dealing with those suspected of crime, as well as those in the ordinary pursuits of their daily vocations, by means brutal, abhorrent and utterly inhuman, and,
"Whereas, these sporadic outbreaks outrage the inalienable rights even of the humblest citizens to the security of life and the pursuits of happiness, make a travesty of justice, and, unless suppressed, must result in the breaking down ordered society and Imperil
Whereon, there appears to be a very close and intimate connection between these increasing acts of mob viciousness and the rapid growth of religious prejudice and racial antithesis; foster
programs and then amalgamate, insured by certain elements in our country which have capitalized bigotry, hatred and intolerance. Be it,
"Resolved, the House of Bishops concurring, that the Protestant Episcopal church in General Convention assembled expresses its solemn condemnation of all forms of mob violence undertaken by secret and other agencies operating contrary to the clearly defined
"Resolved, that it is the conviction of this Convention that any men or group of men, known or unknown, organized or inorganized, who seek to army man against man, citizen against citizen, class against class, race against race, creed against creed, are disloyal to the spirit of the Gospel of Christ and to the foundation principles of the American Commonwealth. Further be it."
"Resolved, that we urge upon the ministry of the church the duty of teaching the people committed to their charge the sanctions of government and law; that we call upon the authorities in charge of the schools of our land to incorporate in their curriculum the importance of respect for government and obedience to its laws; and that we appeal to the duly constituted officers of the law to uphold and maintain to the fullest extent all legal processes for the suppression of any form of mob violence. Adopted."

BLACK-In found and loving remembrance of my devoted wife Lelary Black, who departed this life Oct. 21, 1921.
It has been one year ago since the call for you, my dear wife, was made. The angel of death came and you answered the call. It was sad, so sad, to me to have you leave. In the home I miss you more than words can express; you are gone but not forgotten where Jesus reigns supreme. You lived the life, you kept the faith. When memory lingers how pleasant the thoughts/greedy know that you was a pleasant going. You are not gone from memory, but to that heavenly rest above. Sweet is your memory which never fade, sad is the grave in which you are laid. Some day I hope to meet you in the sweet bye and bye. The depth of my sorrow I can not tell Some where, some day, some time, dear, you and I will meet never more to part. Sleep on and take thy rest! I have you but Jesus loves you best.
Devoted husband, Robert Black Father, one sister, Mrs. C. Kennedy, and two brothers.
ANDERSON—In loving memory of our dear daughter and mother, Jennie Belle Anderson, who departed this life Oct. 21, 1921.
We miss you from our home dear Belle.
We miss thee from thy place
A shadow over our life is cast
We miss the sunshine of thy face.
We miss thy kind and loving hand.
Thy fond and loving care
Our home is dark without you Belle
We miss thee everywhere.
Sad were the hour that fatal day
When God called our daughter, and mother away
A loving daughter and mother so true and kind.
No friend on earth like her we find.
For all of us she did her best.
May God grant her eternal rest.
