For such is the purpose of the Y. W. C. A. as regards its girls. The club meets the first and third Friday of each month, at 5 o'clock, at the Phyllis Wheatley Branch.

In memory of my dear husband, James Thompson, who departed this life six years ago, February 16, 1915: Dearest Jimmie, I do miss thee, With thy sweet and smiling face; But I know that thou art happy, Filled with His abiding grace. Thou, our love, who hast departed, From this sinful world of ours, Knowest not that I do love thee— But His love is greater than ours. From a world of sin and woe; From across the great, deep waters, To where thou knowest sin no more. For of such is the kingdom of heaven; So said Jesus, in His Word, And to thee a crown He's given, And his promise He has filled. A loving wife, JENNIE E. THOMPSON. "fires light" fleas b.sed in the cracks and crevices of brood coops and poultry houses; also in dry animal or vegetable refuse, but will not breed in damp or wet places; therefore, to get rid of them it is necessary to clean and spray the houses and runs thoroughly as well as treat the birds, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Grease the comb and wattles of the fowls and chicks with a preparation of kerosene and lard—1 part kerosene to 3 parts of lard—belong very careful not to use too much of the mixture or get any of it in the birds' eyes or on other places where it is not necessary, as it may cause injury if used too freely. Clean and spray the coops and houses thoroughly the same as for poultry mites; also wet or spray the yards or runs, especially any dry soil about the poultry houses, such as dirt floors, with a solution of salt and water, which helps to keep the ground moist and prevents the fleas from breeding.

Mticitight" fleas” b.eed: Sig. the. cracks and crevices of brood coops and poultry houses; also in dry animal or vegetable refuse, but will not breed In damp or wet places; therefore, to get rid of them it is necessary to clean and spray the houses and runs thor- oughly as well as treat the birds, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Grease the comb and wattles of the fowls and chicks with a preparation of kerosene and lard—1 part kerosene to 3 parts of lard—being very careful not to use too much of the mixture or get any of it in the birds’ eyes or on other places where it is not necessary, as it may cause injury if used too freely. Clean and spray the coops and houses thoroughly the same as for poultry mites; also wet or spray the yards or runs, especially any dry soil about the poultry houses, such as dirt floors, with a solution of salt and water, which helps to keep the ground moist and ptevents the fleas from breeding. n The Southern Indicator.

Any honest minister, like an honest layman will pay his debts promptly or report the reason why. The other class will not. Now is the time to plant that garden to get early vegetables. The sermons some preachers preach can't be heard for the lives they live. The typhus disease just introduced in New York by immigrants from Europe is starting New York's best medical skill. The Columbia State should agitate the landing of those destructive incomers on the borders of South Carolina. The woman or girl of color who can and does look a white man salesman or what not, sternly in the face and transact her business without a "grin" or unnecessary exchange of words as other women do our men, the sooner will that man regard her more respectful and the more will our men respect her and the more will she be deserving of highest respect. "Loveless Love Blues." Loveless Love Blues is the title of the latest blues sung by W. C. Handy, originator of the blues idea, and better known by "St. Louis Blues" and "Memphis Blues" which are known the world over. The Q. R. S. Company has made a roll of this number featuring a colored pianist, James P. Johnson of New York City. Since January 1st six phonograph companies have made phonograph records of "Loveless Love" as the words are a novel construction and the music characteristic of Mr. Handy. The chorus of "Loveless Love" is written in Spanish tempo and carries a simple melody as beautiful as "Silver Threads Among The Gold." The second chorus is written in Jazz tempo and is pronounced by all who hear it as an innovation in the song writing game. Pace and Handy, Music Co. enjoys the distinction of being of being the first to publish a song with the laughing trombone and the first to put over a song with Mamie Smith in the records and the first to lend dignity to the Blues. This Company is doing a pioneer work which in the years to come will be pointed to with pride by members of the race. We Don't Agree. The Indicator noted that representatives Mason and Stribling of Anderson are contending that certain parts of unsettled and in Georgia be reclaimed by South Carolina. We don't agree with the gentlemen. South Car- olina is too much like Georgia now and being fearful that this part of Georgia added to South Carolina will also add to her dark blots, we say let Georgia have that strip of land. Furthermore were it possible to annex Anderson, Abbeville, Hampton, Fort Motte and like places to the black record of Georgia. The Inducator would legislate those places to Georgia without further procedure. The Committee Appointed. We had the pleasure last week of calling the attention of our readers to The Royal Theatre, a "movie house" in this city conducted by whites exclusively for the exclusive patronage of Negroes. This Theatre for some time has been tee topic of discussion among our people because of the little recognition given those who patronize it, except to come in great and still greater numbers to patronize it. This the Negroes of Columbia are tired doing and have really resolved not to do so much longer. For that reason we had a little say last week and suggested that before the leading ministers and business men of the city took any steps to satisfy the dissatisfied public, that the ministers who have the cars of the people appoint a committee to wait on the owner and manager and lay bare the desires of the peoole and if a deaf ear is given this committee then take such steps as the leading minds think best. We gladly say that in keeping with our suggestion the Inter-denominational Ministers Union has appointed that committee and the same is at work. We hoping that this committee will be able to make a favariable report back to the Union next Tuesday. Just what the demands are that this committee will make we do not know but we do know that with the men of experience and ability among us to manage and operate the theatre in every branch they certainly should be given positions and that the theatre should be conducted on a high order. Nothing less than this should satisfy, nothing less than this should be granted. Strength In Union. Another step forward for Columbia's colored citizenry is the formulated plan for a large Building and Loan Association to help the masses. From first hand information, this Organization is a certainty and is only a matter of time to properly organize which will be done next Thursday night, February 24th, at Zion Baptist Church. The capital's ock is $50,000 at $50 00 per share. Many have already subscribed for shares and many more will subscribe. This is as it should be. It is high time that our people in Columbia should cooperate and combine their forces if we would get the recognition desired The Indicator would urge every colored man and woman to subscribe to the capital stock of this new concern and help to put it into operation at once and hereafter when we need money to buy a home or pay for what we have let's go to our own. Let's meet at Zion next Thursday night. Jim Crowism The latest introduction under jim crowism in South Carolina is a bill to jim crow pictures in theatres. That is a white picture cannot be shown in a colored theatre and vise versa if the bill is carried. And it seems to meet with favor with the lawmakers; for it has passed its third reading at this writing. We now have jim crow public carriers, jim crow churches, jim crow stores, jim crow waiting rooms, jim crow clerks, etc., and it seems that now we are to have jim crow pictures. Going some. You will have to move up Georgia. Somehow or other during the heat of the jim crow fever lawmakers they overlook the main issues. Since jim crowism is the issue we should like to read of carried bills to prohibit white men from owning and managing colored theatres; one to prohibit white lawyers from defending Negroes, one to prevent white doctors from practicing on Negroes, one to prevent white insurance companies and white collectors from insuring and collecting from Negroes; one to prohibit white clerks (especially female) from serving Negroes; one to prohibit white printers from receiving printing from Negroes JUST WHAT YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A break in the prices of Woolens.

After practicing for twelve years, we have found the field of medicine so broad that it is necessary to limit our practice along certain lines in order to do the best work. While we do a very limited amount of general practice, we are trying to confine our work almost entirely to office practice. We have made a specialty of Female Diseases, Diseases of the Throat, Removal of Tonsils and Adenoids, Stomach Trouble, Disease of the Chest and Joints, Removal of Ingrowing Nails and New Growths, and all kinds of office work. We find that if these alimentes are corrected before they go too long, it will save many patients from hospital operations. Residence, 2202 Hampton Ave. Lot us take time and count our human aids which are rightly to be depended upon in their contribution to the development of religious growth. We have the home, church, schools, colleges, universities young men and women's associations temperance unions, hospitals and many other like agents which are unknown to us. If these are playing their real part in advancing the one thing upon which the destiny of the whole world depends, why do we go mourning before death strikes its last and final blow. But since this suggestive statement, in the prayer referred to above, meets the assent of the large majority of those listeners it is undoubtedly something tilting about this development. Some of these departments are evidently falling short. Upon which shall this fault be placed? Surely the homes are not at fault. These are the bedrock of any nation's civilization. Herein is the father, priest, prince and king, and the mother a veritable queen. The children honor those in whose faces they first looked, above all other as the imbodiment of purity and love. They believe in their parents' religion and every thing else until they are deceived, then all respect and confidence take the wings of doubt and unbelief and light upon a cliff in an unknown region.

BUILDING AND LOAN ASSOCIATION FORMING All persons interested in the proposed People's Building and Loan Association, those who have subscribed for shares and prospective subscribers, are called to meet at Zion Baptist Church, next Thursday night, Feb. 24 at 8 o'clock.

These and a few others. Such bills providing ample time for the Negroes to prepare to meet this emergency would no doubt bring the Negroes together one for all ways and make them place the real value on their dollars; for it seems that they will only do what "white folks" force them to do even for their very best interest as a race. So let the bills come "white folks." We Hope It is Not True. "Lord, you know that religion is growing so cold and sin is growing so bold" is a striking utterance and a bold confession I heard made in a recent prayer by a good man. The statement is an old worn sentence frequently used in prayer. We dare criticise prayer less we be guillot of judging the heart and motive of the person thus engaged by the use of these old common sentences; none of us "know how to pray as we ought." As we study our condition and recount a few of our many blessings we hope this expression so earnestly uttered in our good brother's prayer is not true. There is every reason for the successful growth of the Christian religion among us. The growth of plants depend upon suitable conditions such as soil, sunshine, rain, cultivation, etc. Nature plays an important part, then too, human skill comes in with its contribution. The Christian religion's growth among a people depends upon similar agencies. We have the divine side and human side. The unique plan of redemption has been wrought by Jesus and the Holy Spirit is heaven's agent in the world and the Christian people are being used by Him in keeping alive and very active this religion which in time must reach that large proportion so as to cover the whole earth.

Any honest minister, like an honest layman will pay his debts promptly or report the reason why. The other class will not. Now is the time to plant that garden to get early vegetables The sermons some preachers preach can't be heard for the lives they live. The typhus disease just introduced in New York by immigrants from Europe is astirring New York's best medical skill. The Columbia State should agitate the landing of those destructive incomers on the borders of South Carolina. The woman or girl of color who can and does look a white man salesman or what not, sternly in the face and transact her business without a "grin" or unnecessary exchange of words as other women do our men, the sooner will that man regard her more respectful and the more will our men respect her and the more will she be deserving of highest respect. "Loveless Love Blues." Loveless Love Blues is the title of the latest blues sung by W. C. Handy, originator of the blues idea, and better known by "St. Louis Blues" and "Memphis Blues" which are known the world over. The Q. R. S. Company has made a roll of this number featuring a colored pianist, James P. Johnson of New York City. Since January 1st six phonograph companies have made phonograph records of "Loveless Love" as the words are a novel construction and the music characteristic of Mr. Handy. The chorus of "Loveless Love" is written in Spanish tempo and carries a simple melody as beautiful as "Silver Threads Among The Gold." The second chorus is written in Jazz tempo and is pronounced by all who hear it as an innovation in the song writing game. Pace and Handy, Music Co. enjoys the distinction of being of being the first to publish a song with the laughing trombone and the first to put over a song with Mamie Smith in the records and the first to lend dignity to the Blues. This Company is doing a pioneer work which in the years to come will be pointed to with pride by members of the race. We Don't Agree. The Indicator noted that representatives Mason and Stribling of Anderson are contending that certain parts of unsettled and in Georgia be reclaimed by South Carolina. We don't agree with the gentlemen. South Car- olina is too much like Georgia now and being fearful that this part of Georgia added to South Carolina will also add to her dark blots, we say let Georgia have that strip of land. Furthermore were it possible to annex Anderson, Abbeville, Hampton, Fort Wotte and like places to the black record of Georgia. The Indicator would legislate those places to Georgia without further procedure. The Committee Appointed.

Any honest minister, like an honest layman will pay his debts promptly or report the reason why. The other class will not. Now is the time to plant that garden to get early vegetables The sermons some preachers preach can't be heard for the lives they live. The typhus disease just introduced in New York by immigration from Europe is marking New York's-best medical skill. The Columbia State should agitate the landing of those destructive incomers on the borders of South Carolina. The woman or girl of color who can and does look a white man salesman or what not, sternly in the face and transact her business without a "grin" or unnecessary exchange of words as other women do our men, the sooner will that man regard her more respectful and the more will our men respect her and the more will she be deserving of highest respect. "Loveless Love Blues." Loveless Love Blues is the title of the latest blues sung by W. C. Handy, originator of the blues idea, and better known by "St. Louis Blues" and "Memphis Blues" which are known the world over. The Q. R. S. Company has made a roll of this number featuring a colored pianist, James P. Johnson of New York City. Since January 1st six phonograph companies have made phonograph records of "Loveless Love" as the words are a novel construction and the music characteristic of Mr. Handy. The chorus of "Loveless Love" is written in Spanish tempo and carries a simple melody as beautiful as "Silver Threads Among The Gold." The second chorus is written in Jazz tempo and is pronounced by all who hear it as an innovation in the song writing game. Pace and Handy, Music Co. enjoys the distinction of being of being the first to publish a song with the laughing trombone and the first to put over a song with Mamie Smith in the records and the first to lend dignity to the Blues. This Company is doing a pioneer work which in the years to come will be pointed to with pride by members of the race. We Don't Agree. The Indicator noted that representatives Mason and Stribling of Anderson are contending that certain parts of unsettled and in Georgia be reclaimed by South Carolina. We don't agree with the gentlemen. South Car- olina is too much like Georgia now and being fearful that this part of Georgia added to South Carolina will also add to her dark blots, we say let Georgia have that strip of land. Furthermore were it possible to annex Anderson, Abbeville, Hampton, Fort Worth and like places to the black record of Georgia. The Indicator would legislate those places to Georgia without further procedure. The Committee Appointed. We had the pleasure last week of calling the attention of our readers to The Royal Theatre, a "movie house" in this city conducted by whites exclusively for the exclusive patronage of Negroes. This Theatre for some time has been tee topic of discussion among our people because of the little recognition given those who patronize it, except to come in great and still greater numbers to patronize it. This the Negroes of Columbia are tired doing and have really resolved not to do so much longer. For that reason we had a little say last week and suggested that before the leading ministers and business men of the city took any steps to satisfy the dissatisfied public, that the ministers who have the ears of the people appoint a committee to wait on the owner and manager and lay bare the desires of the peoole and if a deaf ear is given this committee then take such steps as the leading minds think best. We gladly say that in keeping with our suggestion the Interdenominational Ministers Union has appointed that committee and the same is at work. We hoping that this committee will be able to make a favorable report back to the Union next Tuesday. Just what the demands are that this committee will make we do not know but we do know that with the men of experience and ability among us to manage and operate the theatre in every branch they certainly should be given positions and that the theatre should be conducted on a high order. Nothing less than this should satisfy, nothing less than this should be granted. Strength In Union Another step forward for Columbia's colored citizenry is the formulated plan for a large Building and Loan Association to help the masses. From first hand information, this Organization is a certainty and is only a matter of time to properly organize which will be done next Thursday night, February 24th, at Zion Baptist Church. The capital stock is $50,000 at $50.00 per share. Many have already subscribed for shares and many more will subscribe. This is as it should be. It is high time that our people in Columbia should cooperate and combine their forces if we would get the recognition desired The Indicator would urge every colored man and woman to subscribe to the capital stock of this new concern and help to put it into operation at once and hereafter when we need money to buy a home or pay for what we have let's go to our own. Let's-meet at Zion next Thursday night. Jim Crowism The latest introduction under jim crowism in South Carolina is a bill to jim crow pictures in the theatres. That is a white picture cannot be shown in a colored theatre and vise versa if the bill is carried. And it seems to meet with favor with the lawmakers; for it has passed its third reading at this writing. We now have jim crow public carriers, jim crow churches, jim crow stores, jim crow waiting rooms, jim crow clerks, etc., and it seems that now we are to have jim crow pictures. Going some. You will have to move up Georgia. Somehow or other during the heat of the jim crow fever lawmakers they overlook the main issues. Since jim crowism is the issue we should like to read of carried bills to prohibit white men from owning and managing colored theatres; one to prohibit white lawyers from defending Negroes, one to prevent white doctors from practicing on Negroes, one to prevent white insurance companies and white collectors from insuring and collecting from Negroes; one to prohibit white clerks (especially female) from serving Negroes; one to prohibit white printers from receiving printing from Negroes JUST WHAT YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR Owing to the Reduction our Woolen Houses have granted us, we are able to make a suit from $30.00 upward.

Such bills providing ample time for the Negroes to prepare to meet this emergency would no doubt bring the Negroes together one for all ways and make them place the real value on their dollars; for it seems that they will only do what "white folks" force them to do even for their very best interest as a race. So let the bills come "white folks." We Hope It is Not True. "Lord, you know that religion is growing so cold and sin is growing so bold" is a striking utterance and a bold confession I heard made in a recent prayer by a good man. The statement is an old worn sentence frequently used in prayer. We dare criticise prayer less we be guilty of judging the heart and motive of the person thus engaged by the use of these old common sentences; none of us know how to pray as we ought." As we study our condition and recount a few of our many blessings we hope this expression so earnestly uttered in our good brother's prayer is not true. There is every reason for the successful growth of the Christian religion among us. The growth of plants depend upon suitable conditions such as soil, sunshine, rain, cultivation, etc. Nature plays an important part, then too, human skill comes in with its contribution. The Christian religion's growth among a people depends upon similar agencies. We have the divine side and human side. The unique plan of redemption has been wrought by Jesus and the Holy Spirit is heaven's agent in the world and the Christian people are being used by Him in keeping alive and very active this religion which in time must reach that large proportion so as to cover the whole rob yourself.

If these are playing their real part in advancing the one thing upon which the destiny of the whole world depends, why do we go mourning after death strikes its last and final blow. But since this suggestive statement, in the prayer referred to above, meets the assent of the large majority of those listeners it is undoubtedly something tilting about this development. Some of these departments are evidently falling short. Upon which shall this fault be placed? Surely the homes are not at fault. These are the bedrock of any nation's civilization. Herein is the father, priest, prince and king, and the mother a veritable queen. The children honor those in whose faces they first looked, above all other as the imbodiment of purity and love. They believe in their parents' religion and every thing else until they are deceived, then all respect and confidence take the wings of doubt and unbelief and light upon a cliff in an unknown region.

The following is an editorial written for The Watchman and Defender. But as Professor Gregory delivered his lecture two or three times in Columbia, and in as many different places, I thought that it would be well to reproduce it in The Indicator for the benefit of its readers. The Bahai Movement. On the fifth Sunday in January the editor worshipped at the Sydney Park C. M. E. Church in Columbia by a special invitation of the pastor, Rev N. F. Haygood, D. D. Arriving at the church before the hour for beginning the services, we were asked to take a seat in the pulpit, which we did. While sitting there facing the congregation, and watching the people as they entered the temple of worship, we noticed one of the ushers as he conducted a stranger to a front seat. The stranger was a man, and he was not prepossessing in his appearance. He looked ordinary. He sat quietly and listened to a good sermon. He had previously arranged with the pastor to deliver a tree lecture in Sydney Park Church at 4 o'clock p. m., and at the close of the sermon, Pastor Haygood introduced the stranger as Prof. Louis G. Gregory of Washington, D. C., and requested him to speak of his lecture. Then Prof. Gregory arose, and, in a good, clear voice, he stated that at 4 o'clock he would discuss the principles of "The Bahai Movement," and invited everybody in Columbia to come out, and hear him. But when we heard Dr. Haygood say that "Professor Gregory of Washington, D. C., will say a word," then our treacherous memory by association recalled the fact that about 15 years ago, when we were stationed at Old Bethel in Charleston, a man by that same name came to that city, and delivered several lectures on the Bahai Religion in some of the churches and halls. At that time there was a brilliant young lawyer in Charleston who was a member of Old Bethel. His parents before him were members of this church. This young lawyer was christened in this church and grew up in the Sunday School, became a member and a trustee of the church. This young lawyer took hold of this new religion, and tried to master it. We heard him deliver an address in Old Bethel at a platform service on a Sabbath night, and his subject was "Love." And this is the principle doctrine of the Bahai religion. His address was beautiful and eloquent, and impressive. And this young lawyer continued to wrestle with this Bahai religion, trying to master it, until he completely lost his mind, and had to be brought to the insane asylum here in Columbia. But what is "The Bahai Movement or Religion?" We heard Professor Gregory at Sydney Park on the fifth Sunday afternoon in Columbia, and can truly say for him that he was really eloquent and forceful. He held the close attention of his audience for more than an hour. And those "The Search for Truth; The Oneness of Humanity; the Unity of Religions; Religion and Science Agree; Equality of Men and Women; Abandonment of Prejudice; A Universal Language; Universal Education; Universal Peace; An International Tribunal; Solution of the Economic Problem; The Power of the Holy Spirit." The principles seem to be all right, but the Lord Jesus Christ is not recognized in them, and any religion that has no Christ in it, is not worthy of the attention of intelligent Christian people. And any attempt to teach, enforce and build up a religion without Christ will be an utter failure. The Bahai religion teaches love, but it is not the love that Christ taught. It is not the love that the Apostles taught. It is not the love that is promulgated by Christianity. It seems to us to be a head religion, and not a heart religion. Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, was a man who belied in, and taught the Bahai religion, but Christ told him that he must be born again. And no man can love God and his neighbor without being converted. But another word concerning the young lawyer who was brought to the asylum. After he was brought here his parents wrote us to visit him as often as possible and we did so. The first time we called to see him he held in his hand a little pamphlet, and we asked him for it. He readily gave it to us, and when we examined it, we found it to be a book on the Bahai religion. We took it from him and brought it home, knowing that it was this that caused him to lose his mind. He eventually died in the asylum, and we took his body home to Charleston, assisted at the funeral, and followed him to the grave. But while this young man embraced the Bahai religion, he never left his church, and his body was taken back to the church of his parents and to the church of his childhood, and from this church he was buried. This is what the Bahai religion did for a bril- --- L. W.

DICKERSON & CO. 1308 Taylor St., "Quality Furniture" Phone 1370 Professor Gregory spoke several times in Columbia, and each time he was shrewd enough to conceal his real purpose. He displayed considerable sagacious judgment in the wording and presentation of his new doctrine. But while the people admired his oratory, they failed to accept his teaching. The impression he seemed to have made was short lived, and soon passed away. But there may be a few who like the young lawyer referred to above, who will follow the professor. I. E. L.

THE GREAT RACE CON FERENCE WAS A SUCCESS. Notwithstanding the fact that the Race Conference was not as largely attended this year as in some years of the past as are so many other organizations these days during renous times from every point of view, the Race Conference was a success. Many helpful addresses were made on live topics of the day by men and women best prepared to make them. Those who attended the sessions have reasons to rejoice that they did and only those who did not attend were the losers of many helpful suggestions and new ideas. The Conference ended Thursday night with thrilling speeches by Dr. William H. Johnson of Charleston; Rev. M. L. Carlisle (white) and Bishop K G. Finley (white). All officers were re elected. I. S. Leevy, president; Mrs. L. F. Holmes, Vice Pres.; Prof. T. L. Duckett, Secretary and L. B. Woods, Treasurer. Among the Race Conference visitors here this week were: Hon. R. W. Westberrp, Sumter; Rev.

The following is an editorial written for The Watchman and Defender. But as Professor Gregory delivered his lecture two or three times in Columbia, and in as many different places, I thought that it would be well to reproduce it in The Indicator for the benefit of its readers. The Bahai Movement. On the fifth Sunday in January the editor worshipped at the Sydney Park C. M. E. Church in Columbia by a special invitation of the pastor, Rev. N. F. Haygood, D. D. Arriving at the church before the hour for beginning the services, we were asked to take a seat in the pulpit, which we did. While sitting there racing the congregation, and watching the people as they entered the temple of worship, we noticed one of the ushers as he conducted a stranger to a front seat. The stranger was a man, and he was not prepossessing in his appearance. He looked ordinary. He sat quietly and listened to a good sermon. He had previously arranged with the pastor to deliver a free lecture in Sydney Park Church at 4 o'clock p. m., and at the close of the sermon, Pastor Haygood introduced the stranger as Prof. Louis G. Gregory of Washington, D. C., and requested him to speak of his lecture. Then Prof. Gregory arose, and, in a good, clear voice, he stated that at 4 o'clock he would discuss the 1 triples of "The Bahai Movement," and invited everybody in Columbia to come out, and hear him. But when we heard Dr. Haygood say that "Professor Gregory of Washington, D. C., will say a word," then our treacherous memory by association recalled the fact that about 15 years ago, when we were stationed at Old Bethel in Charleston, a man by that same name came to that city, and delivered several lectures on the Bahai Religion in some of the churches and halls. At that time there was a brilliant young lawyer in Charleston who was a member of Old Bethel. His parents before him were members of this church. This young lawyer was christened in this church and grew up in the Sunday School, became a member and a trustee of the church. This young lawyer took hold of this new religion, and tried to master it. We heard him deliver an address in Old Bethel at a platform service on a Sabbath night, and his subject was "Love." And this is the principle doctrine of the Bahai religion. His address was beautiful and eloquent, and impressive. And this young lawyer continued to wrestle with this Bahai religion, trying to master it, until he completely lost his mind, and had to be brought to the insane asylum here in Columbia. But what is "The Bahai Movement or Religion?" We heard Professor Grégory at Sydney Park on the fifth Sunday afternoon in Columbia, and can truly say for him that he was really eloquent and forceful. He held the close attention of his audience for more than an hour. And these are the principles of his religion as he taught them: "The Search for Truth; The Oneness of Humanity; the Unity of Religions; Religion and Science Agree; Equality of Men and Women; Abandonment of Prejudice; A Universal Language; Universal Education; Universal Peace; An International Tribunal; Solution of the Economic Problem; The Power of the Holy Spirit." The principles seem to be all right, but the Lord Jesus Christ is not recognized in them, and any religion that has no Christ in it, is not worthy of the attention of intelligent Christian people. And any attempt to teach, enforce and build up a religion without Christ will be an utter failure. The Bahai religion teaches love, but it is not the love that Christ taught. It is not the love that the Apostles taught. It is not the love that is promulgated by Christianity. It seems to us to be a head religion, and not a heart religion. Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, was a man who belied in, and taught the Bahai religion, but Christ told him that he must be born again. And no man can love God and his neighbor without being converted. But another word concerning the young lawyer who was brought to the asylum. After he was brought here his parents wrote us to visit him as often as possible and we did so. The first time we called to see him he held in his hand a little pamphlet, and we asked him for it. He readily gave it to us, and when we examined it, we found it to be a book on the Bahai religion. We took it from him and brought it home, knowing that it was this that caused him to lose his mind. He eventually died in the asylum, and we took his body home to Charleston, assisted at the funeral, and followed him to the grave. But while this young man embraced the Bahai religion, he never left his church, and his body was taken back to the church of his parents and to the church of his childhood, and from this church he was buried. This is what the Bahai religion did for a bril- --- L. W.

He displayed considerable sagacious judgment in the wording and presentation of his new doctrine. But while the people admired his oratory, they failed to accept his teaching. The impression he seemed to have made was short lived, and soon passed away. But there may be a few who like the young lawyer referred to above, who will follow the professor. I. E. L.

Notwithstanding the fact that the Race Conferance was not as largely attended this year as in some years of the past as are so many other organizations these days during strenous times from every point of view, the Race Conference was a success, Many helpful addresses were made on live topies of the day by men and women best prepared to make them.
