On Sunday, June 9, I precaed at New Hope Baptist church, Belton, S. C. Rev. Stewart is the pastor. Brother W. H. Latimer, who is a member of my high council, met me with his fine car and carried me to his home, where I spent two pleasant nights. The service at this church was fine and the audience showed a great spiritual interest in the service. I was at this excellent church 11 months ago and secured many subscribers for the great weekly. Brother F.' C. Clinkscales, who is another member of the council, came a long distance to hear the prophet. He is a member of Pleasant Hill church. Brother Rice came with him. A nice collection was taken for me. I called for subscribers for the Indicator and several came forward. This is a fine farming section and a great many colored people own their homes. Deacon L. E. Cooly is one of the wealthiest farmers in the Piedmont section; also C. C. Latimer, W. H. Latimer, C. C. Cooly and the diplomatic Deacon Earle and others are men of high standing. After service we went to Brother W. H. Latimer's home and Sister Latimer prepared a fine dinner for us and Brother Clinkscales, who is president of the Rocky River Singing Convention, made some fine music for us on the piano. By request of the prophet he played "They Tell Me or An Uncloudy Day." Brother Latimer is one of the leading young men of Anderson county. While at Laurens I found that half of the colored people own their own homes and that two-thirds of the families of Bethel church own their homes. Mrs. Maxwell, the organist at Bethel, who was the wife of the late Dr. Maxwell, is one of the finest that I have ever met and Mrs. Emmaline Nelson has one of the finest voices that I have heard. I had the pleasure to visit Greenville and have a short talk with a number of my old friends. I visited Friendship church. This is the church that I was baptised at by Rev. J. E. Washington. A fine literary contest was had by Mrs. Lula Barne. It was a high class literary to make a short address. All were advised to not be worried by the unfavorable news in the papers but just put your trust in God. Mrs. Payne is a teacher in the graded schools and is a fine leader. I spent the night with Rev. James Goodlett, who has been a friend of mine all his life. He is a preacher and a great scholar and teacher, and has a nice home. This church has sent out as many able church workers as any other church of the same membership. Quite a number of my friends subscribed for the Indicator and one good friend subscribed without my request. Paris Mountain and Blue Ridge looked so beautiful. I talked with Rev. Burke, my friend. He is doing a great work. The paper goes to (1) C. C. Latimer, back dues $1.50; also C. C. Latimer, $1.50 renewal, total $3, Belton, S. C., R. F. D. 4; (2) W. H. Latimer, $1.50, Belton, S. C., R. F.

Lopez, formerly of Columbia, who made his home in New York City for the pas few years, departed this life Snoday evening. May 29, 1921. He leaves a devoted wife and five children, Mr. John F. Lopez, Jr., Mrs. C. T. Suber, Mrs. J. Rufus Perry, Mr. Ellery T. Lopez, Mr. Edward A. Reese. The Southern Indicator PLEA FOR NEGRO MADE TO WOMEN Anderson, June 9.—At the evening session of the Woman's Missionary conference of Upper South Carolina of the Methodist church, which is being held here, Mrs. W. A. Newell of Statesville, N. C., made an address on Wednesday evening on the "Interracial Relationship." Mrs. Newell made a plea for better conditions for the Negroes of the South, better race relationship, and cited the commission on racial relationship of Atlanta, stating that in giving the Negro a part in the commission, and a chance to express themselves on matters pertaining to their betterment that the results had been most gratifying. Mrs. Newell said that when a grievance is stated then half the sting is gone. In this forum it had been found that there were five things that the Negro wanted: "Better opportunities for themselves and leaders," "The Ballot," "Better conditions of travel," "Justice in courts." "Better labor conditions for the men," while the women wanted better domestic service relations, child welfare, better conditions of travel, better educational facilities, stopping of lynching, fairness in public press, and the ballot. Mrs. Newell begged that the white women take an interest in the Negro public schools, that the women have a large part in creating a change of sentiment towards the Negroes of the South. That they had no right to send missionaries to China, Brazil or Africa until they had done their whole duty to the race that was with them at home. She also urged the women to form an auxiliary to their societies and to help the Negro women and encourage them. The Rev. J. C. Roper also appealed to the women to assist in the present campaign for Christian education, saying that Christian education had to make amends for the committing of national suicide, that the women must stimulate the wavering line, and say, "On to victory," they must give new hope. NINETY-SIX NEWS. Ninety-Six, S. C., June 8.—The college students are arriving every day. Miss Gertrude Moore from Little River Institute, Miss Willie Moragne, Benedict college, Mr. Robert Dean, Miss Maggie Dean and Eddie Harris, State College Miss Mattie Forrest, High S. Baltimore, Md.; Miss Willie G. High School, Columbus, Ohio. Welcome home, young people, we hope you all a pleasant vacation. Mrs. Lula Griffin has been real sick, but we are glad she is much better at this writing. Mrs. Maud Hawkins of Greenwood, S. C., spent several days here last week, the guest of Mrs. G. A. Parker. Mrs. Adelaide Brunson is on the sick list yet. She has been sick for quite a while. Mrs. Brunson is a faithful mother and church worker. We hope for her a speedy recovery. Mrs. Mary Floyd of Greenwood spent a few days here, the guest of Mrs. Nancy Waller. Mrs. Daisy Simmons is home, after a pleasant visit in Milledgeville, Ga. She reports a fine time. Mesdames Clark and Parker spent a very pleasant day in Greenwood last week. Rev. A. A. Pinckney ,the beloved pastor of Bethlehem Baptist church, was the guest of Deacon F. T. Cyrus Saturday and Sunday. The services at Bethlehem Sunday were real good. Sunday evening the pastor used for a text, "Righteousness exalteth a nation; but sin is a reproach to any people." Prov. 14:34. We all enjoyed this great sermon. At 7:30 we had our B. Y. P. U. meeting. Mrs. P. B. Martin is our president. At 8:30 the pastor preached another excellent sermon. He used for a text, "And it was noised abroad that he was in the house." Rev. Pinckney was at his best. Mr. Mose White and Aaron White spent a few hours with Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Clark Friday evening. The Woman's Missionary Society, under the leadership of Mrs. C. A. Clark, is doing real good work. We hope before December to have every female member of Bethelehem a member of the Missionary society. Mr. Jessie Alexander is home to stay with his family a while. Mr. Alexander is a first class painter. COLUMBIA, S.C. SATURDAY. JUNE 18 1921 June 13th to July 22nd. Courses of instruction for Teachers of Richland and adjacent counties will be given. A splendid faculty will be provided, under the direction of the State. Our County Board to give instruction in Primary and High School work. For other information, address "Oh there is my insurance man, said one colored lady as she threw her arms into the air and rushed to him in terror, as the throng of looters and vandals rushed into her home with their death and torches. Poor consolation she got from her supposed friend, who had been collecting insurance from her every day. "Get back, dam you, don't get too smart." is the answer she is said to have received. Her house is in ashes today, her white insurance agent was one of those who made up the fiendish party thrt caused her ruin." The above is a clipping from The Black Dispatch, published in Oklahoma City concerning the Tulsa riot. A similar consolation awaits all Negroes of white insurance companies with the kind of agents who have always at their command such nicknames as "Auntie," "Uncle," "John," "Jim," "Ben," etc. Such as always make themselves so familiar and so much at home that it is never becoming to move their hats in the best Negro parlors, except when they are after contracting business, with the thought of moving the hat will help to draw the occupants into their nets. Not only is this true in the insurance field, but in all other walks of life when the climax is reached. MEMORIAM In sad but loving remembrance of my dear friend, little Summer who departed this life June 13, 2014 A dear friend from me has gone And no other one can take her place But God, who knows all things for the best, Take them that is near to us. II. But God, who is a just God, Saw fit and sent His death angels With the message to her to come up higher. Where there are no more pains and sorrow, And when my life journey is over I shall see you for myself. Jennie Thompson. III. My dear friend, you have left me, Oh, how I do miss you when I sit and think of those kind words and sweet smiles. IV. Oh, how my heart does ache With tears in my eyes for you. Dear friend, you know not this: But sometime sooner or late, I don't know, But God knows I will see you in that promise land, Where there's joy and peace. Isabel Sally. Watch on, watch on for us, my friend, Farewell, Farewell. Dear friend, we shall see you in our Father's Kingdom. Isabel Sally and Jennie E. Thompson. INSPIRING TRIP TO WASH INGTON AND RETURN. Dr. J. H. Goodwin, county chairman Hon. H. H. Mobley, State Secretary on the G. O. P., and Mrs. Goodwin, returned from Washington last Sunday much elated over their trip, and quite jubilant over the expected outcome of political conditions. They report that affairs were somewhat muddled by misrepresenting reports made to oust the Negroes politically, but Hon. J. W. Tolbert was as true to his trust as steel, and that with the encouragement of other true and tried Republicans, things were left very much in favor of the party as it has heretofore been conducted in this State. It is thought that old man Thos. Miller will not care to come to Columbia any more. R. W. MANCE, Allen University, Columbia, S. C. (By his old teacher and friend.) Conspicuously foremost among the leaders of the Baptist denomination and the race in South Carolina, and throughout the country as well, is the Rev. Dr. R. F. Lee, who, until recently was, and long had been, dean of the Theological Department, whose excellence so greatly contributed to the prominence of Benedict College in realms educational. And because he was a former student of mine in whose advancement I have ever taken no small interest, as well as his inspirational achievements, I experience pleasure both genuine and great in heralding his inspiring examples of courage and determination to make himself a man educationally prepared and the splendid consecration and energetic employment of that preparation when secured. For be it known and to his credit, often repeated, because it is unvarnished truth, Dr. Lee has always evidenced but little concern about making money, but has ever shown a consuming passion to render great and sustained service in whatever field of endeavor his duty pointed the way. That passion developed into a habit, and that habit developed into a principle and that principle has so saturated and adorned his richly fruitful career that there are whole communities that attribute to his abundant labors and sane leadership the beginning of their epocal progress and betterment while, wherever he has labored, individuals not a few will, without searching, be found maintenance, whether in religious zeal, education acquired, or money accumulated, is due to his pleadings, instruction or counsel. Born in the city of Mobile, Ala., and reared in the by no means cosmopolitan town of Singleton, in that State, he early began and continued persistently to take such advantage of the country schools and certain night schools as his duties on the farm would allow that, at 18 years of age, his educational attainment inspired him to go to Talladega College, in which he spent nine years—three years in college preparatory course—and three years in the college course. And be it known to his credit that the whole of his expenses at Talladega were paid by work—for three years on the school farm out of school hours—and the remaining time in the college printing office, in which he learned the trade, and of which, during the last four years he was there, he had complete charge and entire management Being a Baptist and convinced of a call to the owrk of the gospel ministry, he determined to find or make a way, to secure the training of a full course in a worth whole Baptist Theological Seminary. So being advised by friends, that the consumption he so greatly desired would be more easily attained were he to attend a Baptist college, he entered Benedict College, Columbia, S. C., at which he was duly graduated from the full college course. He then promptly entered the Theological Seminary of the great Union University of Richmond, Va., from which in 1900, in a class of 12, he was graduated. And having, in the April preceding the June in which his graduation took place, been called to the pastorate of the First Baptist Church of Asheville, N. C., which call he accepted, he was the first of his class to enter actively the work of the ministry. Still while the call to Asheville was urgent and most flattering, it was far from being wholly inviting and most desirable. Due to local and internal conditions, the membership was much scattered, and those remaining were obviously humiliated, somewhat divided, and manifestly discouraged. Still Dr. Lee, radiating a cheer and enthusiasm that were infectious, energetically so labored and diplomatically wrought that he soon had erected the foremost MEMORIAM. In loving memory of our dear husband and father, James E. Middleton, who departed this life one year ago today, June 15, 1920. The will of God, what trust, what hope In His all loving plan, How brief in His eternal eyes, Our little mortal span. Then look we forward to that hour When life's straight pathway trod, We shall through all eternity Still do the will of God. Sadly missed by Mother and Daughter, Mrs. James E. Middleton, Mrs. Edward Conwell. church edifice extant among Baptists, white or colored, in all of North Carolina, and had, by recalling the scattered ones, by restorations, and by frequent additions, secured a membership that, numerically and otherwise, would not have suffered in a comparison with that of any other Negro Baptist Church in the entire State, which membership was thoroughly organized and successfully functioned in the departments of Sunday school, Senior B. Y. P. U., Junior B. Y. P. U., Missionary Circles, Mothers' Bands, and such minor or temporary organizations as need might dictate or emergency require. All efforts were made and all endeavors were conducted through perfected organization. And the splendid and increasing results more than justified the wisdom of such procedure. As change is the only certain and permanent thing in this world, the reciprocal contentment of pastor and people experienced a change and finally terminated, due to the fact that Mrs. Lee, Dr. Lee's wife, who was formerly Miss Rebecca Evangeline Boykin of Camden, S. C., was not sufficiently robust to withstand the severity of the winters that obtain at Asheville. Wisdom advised and duty necessitated Dr. Lee to accept the urgent and flattering call extended him by Barnwell, S. C. B., organizes protests, tears and the enthusiasm with which his resignation was repeatedly voted down, he, acting in the light of compelling duty, severed his pastoral connection and came away. Taking charge at Barnwell, he immediately gave free rein to his mania for organization and speedily had the Bethlehem church organized similar to the church in Asheville and the organizations functioning as perfectly. In fact, the church soon began, and, during the entire pastorate of Dr. Lee, continued to lead all of our churches in the State in the work and attending results of Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. In addition to the duties which his work as pastor made necessary at Bethlehem church, Dr. Lee for two years held, in response to popular demand, Sunday school institutes among all the denominations throughout Barnwell and Bamberg counties. After a three year's highly successful pastorate at Barnwell, he resigned to accept the professorship, for which he was urgently sought at Benedict College, upon which resignation the church and the Sunday School Convention and the association of that field jointly wrote the American Baptist Home Mission Society, earnestly requesting that he, after one year's service at the college, be allowed to return to them. The degree of doctor of divinity was conferred on Dr. Lee by Benedict College, where for sixteen years he rendered herculean service, and as an instructor took foremost rank. And while at times he did teach the Latin, Greek, Logic, Mathematics and philosophy of the college department, ever performing with credit to himself and satisfaction to the college authorities any duty assigned, the major portion of his service was rendered in the Theological department, from the duties of dean, of which he was relieved only after his own urgent and often repeated requests. And dean it was his duty to teach—and he did teach—not Barrow's Companion, Pendleton's Christian Doctrine, and such admittedly fine but elementary works. But he did teach the Standard Theologicals in use in the standard Theological Seminaries among Baptists throughout America. During all the sixteen years of his splendid service at Benedict College the close of school meant no vacation ADVERTISING PAYS When placed in The Indicator. Read by over 5,000 in Columbia alone.

What should have meant to and for him a vacation was energetically spent in traversing every nook and corner of the State in the capacity of "a getter of students" for Benedict College. And he was "some improvement in the gospel ministry among Baptists in South Carolina. And what he is often pleased to refer to as "the joy and crown of my abundant labors" includes the major portion of the strongest pastors in the State, the length of the list making impossible the naming of them here. After 16 years of immeasurably great service at Benedict College, Dr. Lee, for reasons staisfactory to himself and to other not made known, has of his own accord, tendered his resignation and severed his connection at the college. What his plans for future work are, I do not know. But I do know that the church or school fortunate enough to secure his services so adequate in preparation, so rich and seasoned in experience, as well as energetic ni activities, might well be considered blessed. The admitted prominence of the man, make most flattering the appended testimonials Rev. Dr. J. C. White, Columbia: Dr. Lee is unquestionably one of the best pulpiteers in the State. Rev. Dr. E. R. Roberts, Principal Voorhees Institute. I have great confidence in Dr. Lee as being equal to any demand in the educational field. Rev. Dr. N. C. Nix, Orangeburg: Dr. Lee conducted the best revival meeting that Mt. Pisgah Church has ever had. Dr. M. P. Hall, President Friendship College: I regard Dr. Lee as superb in the conducting of Bible institutes. President Valentine in a parting note: My Dear Dr. Lee: Before laying down my work as President, I wish to assure you of my appreciation for your loyalty and good will, which have been manifested many times as you have been in and out of the office, at your work on the campus, or as you traveled in and about the State. You have always had the work of the college on your heart and have spoken for it in season and out of season, in a loyal, earnest manner. I wish to assure you of my appreciation of the service rendered and the good will shown. With kind regards, hoping that the coming days may be among your very best, I am Yours truly, B. W. Valentine.

Some people's promises mean nothing. *** Giving advice to some people is simply a loss of time. *** Away with Thos. Miller and his new Republican party. *** Hurrah for J. W. Tolbert and the same old party. *** Rev. Lowery's "Talks for Colored People" are getting quite nauseating. Some people accomplish their greatest when they make great speeches. Nothing else to them. *** Some men really control women, but the cases are very exceptional. *** Money is a great power, but a good name is a greater power, yet some people will exchange a good name for money. *** Some white folks just can't stand to see Negroes, look prosperous, to say nothing abut being prosperous, but the better element delight to see it. When police and sheriff take part in mob law as is said was the case in Oklahoma a few days ago, they descend to the lowest depths of degredation. Some people are so ungrateful in their make up that they very soon forget those who helped to make them so great as they (only) think they are. Some grown women are more destructive to young women than the boil weevil is to cotton or any young man can ever be, although some young men are boil weevil like. *** Georgia is still engaged in her pastime of beating and killing Negro women, burning Negro churches and lynching Negro men. *** One thing Negro merchants need to learn is that if they would increase it intensives of senecio so care. Advertising, however, is the shortest route. A square deal is a better inducement for customers' return. The days when parents used the expression to their children: "Come up as I come," have long since passed and we trust the even rare expression, "If you don't like my way of treating you, it takes but one step to put you off my place on the other fellow's." went with it. This is no time for such destructive teaching now. "Talks for White People" would accomplish more good than "Talks for Colored People" in some of our daily papers. Colored people have been talked to long enough. They need some one not to teach them to be subjective to mistreatment, but some one to talk to those who give the mistreatment, since the laws will not protect them along with other people. Many of the best people in Columbia have expressed themselves as being disgusted with some of the recent "Talks for Colored People" appearing in a certain local daily paper. We are friendly toward the writer of these "talks," but, like many others, some of these "talks" should not be talked. He would do his race a great favor to write some "talks" to "White People" and if the publishers will not publish them cut them all out. We cannot recall when there were such days that if a man spit in a Negro's face, he was not justified in showing in some way that he was not being humanly treated. Not even in the days of slavery. Yet there is a Negro here and there who, because he knows such is pleasing to a certain class, will teach such at the rate of so much per teaching when paid by said class. Such an expense is too great upon the race. From what little we can hear and the glad facial expressions of those who are interested and are in direct touch with political affairs in Washington, good news, yes, real good news, will soon be forthcoming from that great city. That is to those of the old Republican Party, but very sad news indeed to the followers of Lillywhitism or the still newer Republican party. **** We are reproducing an article from The State this week which contains some very good "talk" to our white friends. The speakers were, as you will note, Mrs. W. A. Newell of Statesville, N. C., and Rev. J. C. Roper. These are the kinds of "talks" that are going to prove most helpful, and they are the kind of talks that should be, talked more to white people. It is beyond telling what some people will do for the promise of a "political plum." Old man Tom Miller and all of his kind ought to go off in some secluded place and die. The race would fare much better during this crucial period. But we are told that he is to die very soon. In keeping with his experience of several years as Secretary of the State Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. Convention and an old printer, Prof. S. L. Finley has produced for the above named convention a minute that we are sure will meet the approval of the entire convention and at a very moderate price. We have a copy on our desk and have "o. k.'ed" it. The job did not cost the convention a cent more than was absolutely necessary, which shows that Prof. Finley is the right man for the position which he holds. *** We gladly welcome The Black Dispatch of Oklahoma City to our exchange list. It's a highly edited, 8-page paper, full of good and wholesome news for our people. Of course, for Columbia and many other Southern cities, excepting Atlanta, Ga., and a few others, such news and editorials as it carries are too wholesome for certain people, even some of our own people writing for certain papers, would claim that such news would make them "shudder." But not until our people, and other people, can stand sound, racial doctrine, will our people see the light and follow the lead of the guiding star. No paper should be antagonistic beyond reason, nor should any plead for social equality, nor teach its people to be disrespectful, but the paper that fails to set forth the facts that its people need and according to law, should have a square deal under the laws that are made to (or so said to) govern all the people; a right to exercise citizenship at the poles; a fair chance for commercial prosperity and happiness; is a paper that is more of a liability to any race than an asset, and a paper that that race can well afford to get along without. No paper should declare its purpose as being for the advancement of its race unless it contends for and endings in that race to acquire those goods. A NEW INSURANCE CO. There is being organized in this city a new insurance company. The prime promoter of the new company is Mr. G. C. Forrest. Mr. Forrest is an old insurance man and is quite confident that as general manager he will put the new company over. The Indicator wishes for Mr. Forrest and the others associated with him unbounded success. THE ASSOCIATION OF NEGRO BAPTIST SCOOLS OF SOUTH CAROLINA. To Convene at Union High School, Belton, S.

The people in this vicinity are very nervous over the condition of the boll weevil. In many sections they are plowing up their cotton and planting corn in its stead. We hope the boll weevil will not do as much damage as expected. Rev. J. C. Collins, pastor of St. Paul Baptist Church, has returned from Ft. Lattadale, Fla., where he has been receiving a treatment for his eyes. His people are certainly proud of his return. Miss Marie Wayman, a graduate of the class of 1921 of Allen University, returned home last Friday all in smiles, thinking her task is over. Rev. J. C. McClellan, pastor of Shiloh A. M. E. church, attended the commencement of Allen University. He reports a great commencement. Rev. B. F. Stewart, pastor of Nazareth Baptist church, is the guest of Rev. F. G. S. Everett, of Vance. The week of May 22-29 was a great week in Elloree. Revival meetings were conducted at Nazareth Baptist church by Rev. S. C. Campbell, pastor of Morris Chapel Baptist Church, Greenwood, S. C. This certainly was a great meeting. it goes here without testing that Rev. Campbell is a great preacher. The meeting was closed on the fifth Sunday night by the pastor, Rev. B. F. Stewart. The meeting ended with the baptism of several candidates. We must say that Nazareth, under the pastorate of the present pastor, has become the most flourishing church in town. On the fifth Sunday night there was no standing room to be found in the church. We had received and baptized previous to our meeting, 25 members this year. That is far greater than we have ever done. Rev. Stewart certainly is a strong young pastor, and a Christian gentleman. We hope for him a great future and a long stay with us. Clerk of the Church. NOTES FROM SECOND CALVARY Dr. O. St. Paul Thompson of Anderson preached a powerful sermon last Sunday morning to a large audience of anxious hearers. Dr. Thompson showed himself to be a great pulpiteer.

A very useful man gone. On the third inst. Saxon Graham died at his home near Milletville, S. C. His remains were laid to rest at Ned Branch Baptist Church Sunday, the 5th. The funeral was largely attended. He was a deacon of this church. He was a loving husband, a faithful father and a useful officer. He leaves a wife and several children and a host of friends and relatives to mourn his loss. We may not soon look upon his like again. The Four-Mile Union held its session with the Runs Baptist church the Fifth Sunday in May with apparent success. Let us hope that these unions may mean more than simply the coming together and the raising of money. We hope that its aim will be to elevate the race, point its ambition higher spiritually, morally and intellectually, fighting against everything that pulls our people down, viz., such as selling blind tiger, immoral living and the like. If we are to rise at all it must be through righteousness. Mrs. Ellen Showls of Snelling section died on the 10th inst. and her remains were laid to rest on the 11th inst. at St. Paul Baptist church. The funeral was preached by Rev. A. Chisholm, who did credit to the occasion. The crowd was large and orderly. May she rest in peace. Mr. Henry Williams, that wide awake and business like farmer, passed through Dunbarton and Donora en route to his upper place near Meyer Mill, S. C. He stopped with the writer. Every loyal Negro can't help from feeling proud over some actions of the Governor of Georgia and some of its humane citizens who are using such strenuous efforts to alleviate the poor and oppressed Negroes of Georgia, especially in the peonage cases where many poor carnival vassals of our race are kept in abject slavery. Let us pray earnestly that God will give us still more sympathizers in this great race of white people. C. S. Dunbar, delegated from Tuskegee to the Y. M. C. A. in North Carolina, which convened on the 26th ult. and adjourned on the 6th inst., en route back to Tuskegee, stopped over and lectured for us at the academy near Donora, S. C., on the 12th inst. He made a strong moral appeal to his people, and said that the purpose of the Y. M. C. A. was to identify, visionize and learn the needs of others. Forty-eight schools and colleges were represented and 111 delegates and distinguished men from various states in the meeting. Dr. Plato Durham, of Atlanta, says the hope of the world is not in mere law propagando, but in the hope of who calls themselves true Christians. This includes fair dealing to all men, all nations and all races, regardless as to the situations. Dr. W. W. Alexander, in the same meeting, says no race is static because they are hitched unto the providence of God. Any race who tries to set limitations on another race, those people are shutting out the purposes of God. Oh, my people, let us turn to God and live, for it hath been truly said the purposes of God is just and righteous altogether. My last appeal to the colored sisters on the Four-Mile field and elsewhere never lay down your righteous arms, take fresh courage. Good will towards all. S. B. Coker. 666 has more imitations than any other Fever Tonic on the market, but no one wants imitations.
