C.: Rev. Charles Jaggers and I went to two of the hospitals last Sunday and read the word of God and prayed for the sick. Some of them seemed to have been really uplifted by our service. After this we went to Zion and heard a well preached sermon by Rev. Dr. Lee, ex-professor of Benedict College, which we enjoyed very much. They also gave Rev. Jaggers a good collection, for which he thanked them, and which he will endeavor to put to the very best use. On the same evening he and I met at the church down to the old folks home for Sunday school at 4 o'clock, and I taught the lesson to my best ability. We had with us Dr. C. B. Draftin, one of the leading white doctors of the city. He reviewed our lesson, and I have never heard a white man talk more forcibly about the Lord than he did. He said that when he gets to heaven he wants to be beside Rev. Jaggers, because he knows he is going to shine. We enjoyed the doctor's lecture very much, and we invite more of our white friends to come out for this is mission work and our doors are open at all times to receive any good instruction. Rev. Jaggers preached a good sermon from Paul's letter to the Phillipians, second chapter, verse five: "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus." We had a joyful time. The spirit was there. But stop, look and listen. Dr. Draftin gave us five dollars in the Sunday school. He said take this and use it to the glory of God. May God bless him and give him long life and may he invite others with him the next time he has a chance to come.

C., Aug. 2, 1921. Mr. Editor: Please allow me to speak through the columns of your paper of the Ebenezer Baptist Union which convened at the Mt. Pilgrim Baptist church, Killian, S. C., of which Rev. R. Nelson of Columbia is the beloved pastor. The union was duly opened and called to order by the Moderator Saturday afternoon. After the regular routine of business was transacted, the hour arrived for preaching. Prayer was offered by the Rev. C. H. Leaphart, after which the Rev. H. Gunter proceeded to preach the introductory sermon, after which a collection of $2.00 was taken up. The body adjourned until Sunday morning. On Sunday, 11:30 a. m., the body reassembled. The Moderator announced the Sunday lesson be conducted by the Rev. C. H. Leaphart. After a very biref discussion by the brethren for more than 45 minutes, the hour arrived for preaching. Prayer was then offered by the Rev. J. W. Williams, pastor of Mt. Canaan Baptist church, after which the Moderator announced the hour for preaching had arrived. He then introduced the speaker of the hour in the person of Rev. H. M. Taylor, who proceeded to preach the missionary sermon from the 10th chapter of Numbers and 29th verse. The church at this time was filled to its capacity with eager hearers. Many Columbians were present who took advantage of this opportunity. After the sermon a collection of $20.63 was lifted. The body then adjourned for dinner until 3:30 o'clock. At the hour appointed the body reassembled. After a few brief prayers Scripture lesson was read. Prayer was then offered by Rev. W. G. Gunter, after which the Moderator announced time for preaching. He then introduced the Rev. Solomon Jackson, who proceeded to preach the doctrinal sermon from the 4th chapter Ephesian, 5th verse. Rev. Jackson preached a great and strong sermon. As he did in his theme his hearers were was lifted, after which each of the four churches reported, Zion Canaan $10.00, Mt. Pilgrim $15.00, Mt. Pleasant $10.00, Ebenezer Baptist $10.00. Total collection was more than $75.00. After all expenses having been paid over $50.00 was left at this church for the good people of Mt. Pilgrim who were so loyal to the host of visitors and friends of the union. Rev. Nelson made it very pleasant for the ministers, some of whom were Rev. O. H. Rabbinson, Revs. Tom Scott, Brother Brown, J. W. Williams and others whom we will not have place to mention. They then adjourned, to meet Saturday before the next fifth Sunday at Zion Canaan Baptist church, State Park, S. C., of which Rev. J. W. Williams is pastor. Yours for the success of your valu able paper and the cause of Christ Rev. H. M. Taylor. Rec. Secv. STILL ALIVE. Edgewold, S. C., Aug. 1, 1921. Mr. Editor of Southern Indicator: Dear Sir: Please allow me space through the columns of your paper to say to the friends of the Colonel Creek Union that said Union is still alive. It met in its last session with the Pine Grove Baptist church, near Eastover, S. C., July 30-31, 1921. The devotional was conducted by the Moderator, Rev. S. Chavis. The introductory sermon was preached by the writer from Matt. 5:20. The delegates were enrolled, after which the minutes of the last meeting were read and adopted. The welcome address was made by Brother Charley Scott and Brother S. Jackson responded in behalf of the Union. Other business of the Union were attended to and the body adjourned to meet Sunday morning. Sunday morning you could see people coming in cars, buggies, wagons and on foot until every space in the church was filled and the others had to remain on the yard. The missionary sermon was preached by Rev. Isaac Taylor of Columbia, S. C., from John 4:35. The sermon was an able one and we feel that the spirit of the Lord was upon the man. The doctrinal sermon was proached by the Moderator, Rev. S. Chavis, from 2 Thess. 2:15. The congregation was held spellbound for 30 minutes. "Blest Be the Tie That Binds" was sung, the parting hand was taken and we adjourned to meet with the Mt. Pilgrim Baptist church Saturday be- COLUMBIA. S. C. SATURDAY. AUG. 13 1921 THOUSANDS ATTEND FUNERAL OF NOTED NEGRO PREACHER. Dr. C. T. Walker Laid to Rest at Augusta—Atlanta Ready For Business League. (By W. F. Williams.) Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 10.—According to the white daily papers of Georgia ten thousand people went to the Tabernacle Baptist church, Augusta, last Thursday to witness the funeral services of Dr. Charles Thomas Walker, D. D., LL. D., generally known as the "Black Spurgeon," and largely regarded as the world's greatest preacher. Besides his reputation as a preacher he was known to be a great writer, lecturer and traveler. Three thousand people, white and colored, attended the funeral services. Among them were people from many points in the United States, and included the mayor of Augusta, the city council, the police commissioners, county officials, chief of police, representatives of the Augusta Bar association and leading citizens and business men of Augusta. Dr. Walker has pastored some of the leading churches of the country. For several years he was pastor of the Mt. Olivet Baptist church, New York city. Tabernacle church, of which he was pastor at his death, is one of the most imposing Negro church structures of the country. His remains were interred in the church yard.

(Special to The Indicator)—Propaganda intended to embarrass certain members of the relief committee, who have taken an active stand against the attitude of the city of Tulaa and the white real estate board, in the matter of the retention of the Negroes' property in the edistrict where their property has been destroyed, is being scattered all over the country. Surprise has been exhibited by the white citizens of the community and city to find that certain members of the race are finding money available in other places than the city of Tulaa to reconstruct their homes and rehabilitate themselves. Quite recently a white lady rode down into Greenwood in her car and asked one of the prominent black men there who it was who was furnishing him funds with which to rebuild. "THERE ARE TWELVE MILLIONS OF NEGROES IN THE UNITED STATES," answered this wary gentleman, "AND WE ARE COLLECTING FIFTY CENTS APIECE FROM THEM FOR REBUILDING PURPOSES." In other words, the white citizens of Tusa are attempting to with-hold financial assistance from those who desire to rebuild on their holdings, it is said, and they are attempting to locate all agencies from which Negroes are likely to receive assistance, so everything indicates. The Negro who gave the answer above was more diplomatic than truthful. He nevertheless carried his point of keeping certain interested folk in the dark. Here is the story that was carried in the Associated Press, in an attempt to discredit the Colored Relief Committee. Mississippi, Okla., July 29.—Some of the system of this city are agitating a more expedite distributing and accounting of a considerable sum of money said to have been collected here through subscriptions from out-of-town persons for riot refugees' relief. It is claimed that the money is on deposit in a bank and is not being used to help families who are destitute and really in need. O. W. Gurley is said to be chairman of the relief committee." The report, widely circulated all over he nation, has proven very embarrassing to the committee of prominent Negroes of the Tulsa Relief Committee and their representatives in many points in the United States. It is to be expected that the Negroes of the United States would want to feel that they were not being bounced. It is true that several irresponsible citizens have attempted to collect funds in several places; in fact, there is information to the effect that in several instances, designing persons have gotten away with large sums of money, but the Associated Press report does not seek to deal with them. It indicts directly the regular committee at Tulsa, of which Mr. O. W. Gurley is an active member. The attempt to cast aspersions upon the committee is really an attack upon the Negroes' rebuilding program on the part of certain influences who seek in every way to embarrass and harass those of our group who have the courage to attempt to reconstruct their property in the former business area. Gurley has about finished the reconstruction of his building on the east side of Greenwood and has attacked his other building on the other side of the street. Here is a general survey of the group who constitute the Relief Committee: S. D. Hooker, who is chairman, is one of the most responsible Negro business men in America. He was prior to the fire, the partner in the famous Elliott-Hooker clothing of Tulsa. He has been connected with the "Y" efforts in Tulsa, and before the riot, commanded the respect of both black and white. He is also a member of the Oklahoma Commission on Inter-Racial Co-operation. Rev. R. A. Whittaker, secretary of the committee, is the pastor of Mount Zion Baptist church, the church which sustained the loss of $85,000.00 during the fire. It stands to reason that he would not have been in charge of such a great community effort had he not had the confidence of the people in the city of Tulsa. G. A. Gregg, executive secretary of the Y. M. C. A., at Tulsa, Hunton Branch, is a man who is known beyond the confines of Oklahoma, because of his many years of honest effort in organizational effort among Negroes. Attorney E. I. Sadler has been a resident of Oklahoma IMPORTANT NOTICE. The Indicator will not be published on the 20th of this month. Some time ago we decided to omit the fifth Saturdays. We did not omit last Saturday, the fifth Saturday in July, because we are planning to attend the National Negro Business League, which meets in Atlanta, Ga., on the 17th, 18th, and 19th, and we cannot do justice to our newspaper work while out of the city. For that reason the paper appeared last Saturday and will not appear on the 20th. Manager. IMPORTANT NOTICE. All persons who are going to take part in the Labor Day Celebration, and certainly every business woman and man should, can secure all necessities for decorations from Miss Lannie Kennerlyl at 1831 Gervais Street, cheaper than they can be had anywhere else. Miss Kennerly is chairman of the decoration committee and is working to the best interest of all that the parade will surpass any heretofore displayed in the city. for many years. He lived in the city of Guthrie for about 20 years, where his record is unblemished, before going to Tulsa. As a public man and a lawyer, he is known all over the State. J. Tyler Smith, treasurer of the committee, is one of the most prominent educators in the State of Oklahoma. His father is now operating a large grocery store in the city of Muskogee. Before the riot, he and his father operated the "Welcome Grocery store" the city of Tulsa. They carried a stock worth fully $150,000.00. Rev. H. T. S. Johnson is the secretary of the State Inter-Racial Commission. He has pastored the Wesley Chapel M. E. Church of Tulsa for many years. He is known all over Oklahoma as one of our most trusted leaders. Rev. Jas. A. Johnson is a presiding elder of the A. M. E. Church, Tulsa district. He places in Oklahoma, and can be counted upon at all times to be a pillar of trust. J. H. Goodwin is a real estate operator who has made his way since coming to Tulsa from the Southland. His dealings have been honest and he too is respected and has the confidence of our group. Horace S. Hughes is an instructor in the city school system. Dr. R. W. Mottley is a physician of Tulsa, and has been there for several years. Prof. J. W. Hughes is principal of the graded schools of Tulsa. He is a heavy realty holder; has been connected with the "Y" work there and for several years has been prominently mentioned for the Grand Mastership of Oklahoma Masons. Dr. S. S. Jones needs no introduction to the nation. He is a national character, having been connected with the National Baptist Convention for many years. He is one of the most able leaders of the race and is president of the General Baptist Convention of Oklahoma. E. A. Loupe and Rev. James R. McClain are both well known and have the respect of all who know them. The time has come when in crisis we must refuse to be moved from the leadership of the race. These men were tried and true before the riots and they are true and worthy now. Propaganda, such as is going the rounds is circulated for purposes that are obvious to the discerning. Money is being raised; it will be used to assist in every way to relieve the suffering and needy. Five attorneys have been employed by this committee to defend the score or more of Negroes who are charged with riot. These attorneys are all able members of the bar. Their names follow: R. Emmett Stewart, Muskogee; G. W. P. Brown, Chicago; Elisha Scott, Topeka; E. I. Saddler, Tulsa; and J. W. W. Burns (white), Oklahoma City. A fight will be made to recover every dollar from the city that has been lost through arson and loot. This is your fight and you should not hesitate to put every bit of your energy in dollars behind the effort for restitution. If you are in doubt as to the authority of the representative in your midst, telegraph the headquarters of the committee at 116 North Greenwood, Tulsa; the Washington headquarters, address 1816 Twelfth street, N.

Carroll's mother-in-law, four miles out from Laurens, returned to the city last Monday. They drank Davis Spring water while in Laurens. Mr. Thomas and Rev. Carroll have been suffering for some time with high blood pressure to a dangerous degree. They will return to Laurens this week and will go from there to the National Negro Business League, which meets in Atlanta, Ga., on August 16th. Mr. Thomas has considerable interest in Bennettsville and goes home to sell some tobacco and attend to other business. Mr. Thomas is owner of the Enterprise Bank building, as well as first vice-president of the institution which has a capital of $50,000.00. Mr. E. J. Sawyer is president and the Rev. J. B. Taylor is cashier. Mr. Thomas states that he is not molested with the boll weevil on his great cotton plantation. Last year he produced over two thousand bales of cotton, much of which was long staple. He sold seventy-five bales last year at 75c. pound. Mr. Thomas' health is not good, and his son, Mr. Fred Thomas, has come to his rescue as manager of the farm. His upcountry trip has helped him much, and he is much better. The Rev. James E. Kirkland, D. D., stopped over in the city Monday for a few hours. He will conduct a revival for the Rev. N. C. Nix, D. D., of Orangeburg after his return from Asheville, N. C., where he goes to preach the Conventional Sermon. Capt. A. E. Gonzales, owner of The State Company, called on Rev. Richard Carroll last Sunday and brought to him the largest watermelon that he has seen this season. Mr. Gonzales stated as he left the house, "Carroll and I are both sick and I have come to talk to him." It is a pity that his days of usefulness are gone. Rev. Carroll received an invitation from Dr. W. E. Thayer in behalf of the Santee Association to attend the Memorial Services of the late Dr. C. C. Brown in the First White Baptist Church, Sumter.

Meet your great business and professional men in Atlanta next week. * * * Stop reading your neighbor's papers. The poor publishers need their dues. * * * The Indicator and the publisher will take their vacation next week. The publisher intends visiting the Business League and spreading the news to those who do not attend, in the issue of the 27th. Don't miss this issue. A few nights ago a white man, supposedly in company with other white men, in a certain city, was seen by two white ladies peeping in their window. The conclusion of robbery was immediately reached, but nobody was caught, nobody placed in jail, therefore nobody taken out of jail and beaten. But this was not Greenwood —perhaps that accounts for it. The stand The Indicator takes to encourage more patronage for Negro enterprises costs The Indicator in more than one way. It does not only cost us the space and time it uses but there are those who will not advertise with us because of this fact, claiming that instead of inviting business to their establishments, we rather tell our people not to trade with them by continually advising them to patronize their own. This is a fact and a work we are doing for many who seem to think it is but our duty. And consequently give us but passing notice, leaving us to sink or swim by yourself, while they reap a rich harvest. But some day perhaps they will realize the worth of Negro journals and will at least not only subscribe for their own papers but advertise freely in them and promptly pay for same. That's our hope, at any rate. President Harding is now awarding Southern Negroes for their strong together pull to have him elected President of these United States by seeing, as ex-President Taft declared he would do and did, that no Southern Negro is appointed to any office where he would be offensive to white people. The President either said what he didn't mean in his front porch speeches or is now saying what he doesn't mean. The Negroes have been paid off with hot speech promises long enough. It is now high time that they so completely register and unite that they can command some respect of the very people that the Taft-Harding administration claim they are offensive to. But, of course, this can only be done by Negroes themselves putting race pride and principles above a "mess of pottage." Mid-night fish fries seem to be one of the leading schemes of amusement these nights. We do not know what the mothers and fathers think of this, but The Indicator thinks that if our girls would devote such time thus spent at home helping parents and guardians and reading wholesome literature, etc., a more wholesome atmosphere would prevail around our girls and the remarks, "I can't find a girl to trust" would be less used by some of the young men who plan and defray all expenses for such past-times. There is much yet for some young women to learn for their betterment, which some have learned just a little too late to make corrections. "Negroes have no rights that a white President is bound to respect." President Harding has not said that. but the conclusion is, that's what he meant when he said that he will not "appojnt Southern Negroes to office. Editor John Mitchell, of The Richmond Planet, has been nominated a candidate for Governor of Virginia by the new party of that State. It seems that South Carolina and Georgia might as well get busy and do something too. Well, we are not expecting anything much out of South Carolina, but watch Georgia. The Negroes in that Congo State really do things. Our white friends in Columbia are really looking out for the comfort and education of white youths to the complete exclusion of Negro youths. This has no right so to be, but its really so in Christian Columbia. And the white heralds of the cross, as well as the colored ones, are still preaching the unadulterated gospel, while the leading business and professional men and women are standing idle waiting and grumbling as usual. Benedict College $5,000 Drive. Despite the fact Morris College is pronounced "the pride of the Negro Baptists of South Carolina," Benedict College should stand out pre-eminently, the mother of Morris College, and should not be forgotten by her many sons and daughters in and out of the State. And The Indicator rejoices that there are many sons and daughters in this and other States who also recognize this fact and are rallying around their alma mater in her $5,000 drive. This by no means intends that Morris College needs to be neglected in the so doing, nor that it will. It simply calls for fulfillment of rightful duties to the school that has done so much for the Negro Baptists of the State even before Morris College was born, and whose work is not deterred by Morris College's existence nor Morris College's by its existence. It is commendable to say that the heads of these two institutions are on the very best terms and are working to keep the best terms between the two institutions. Both are working for the best education of the Negro and the field in which they are working is broad enough for both to work and bring about the desired result without friction. And both will But what The Indicator wishes to say mainly is that individuals and churches are getting right into this $5,000 drive for Benedict College, Churches in Columbia, to our personal knowledge, are setting aside a certain Sunday as Benedict Day to raise money on this drive and they hope, by their united efforts, to raise a creditable amount. This, The Indicator hopes, is not only true of Columbia, but every Baptist church in the State and every alumnus of the college in other States. Every old student as well should remember the college in a financial way on this drive. To fail in raising this $5,000 means that the college will fail to receive the $10,000 promised by the General Education Board. What will the sons and daughters of Benedict do about the matter? Baptist Presidential Timber. It is now gradually coming to the surface. The present incumbent, Rev. Dr. J. S. Earle, will find at the next sitting of the Baptist Educational and Missionary convention that there is at least one more brother in the State who thinks that he can just as well if not better steer the old Baptist ship safely to port. As to any prospective presidential timber to this high office The Indicator has no fight to make on any one. And while it may be that there are others who can fill the position just as creditably as Dr. Earle, The Indicator thinks that the brotherhood's Christlike duty is to give Dr. Earle a fair and impartial trial to fill or fail to fill this office another year duly elected by the people. And then his works the success of the convention will determine whether or not the convention was justified in conferring upon him this signal honor. Certainly Dr. Earle will not leave a stone unturned to crown the next sitting of the convention and each succeeding session with success, and if he should fail in the least the fault must be laid to the head and not the heart; for no one can convince us to believe now that there is another in the State with a deeper interest in the work than he has. And brethren, if the fault should be of the head, would it not be more the spirit of love to help him, which would automatically help the cause, rather than fight him for his place? The Indicator is fully aware of the fact that it is not the organ of the Baptist family and that its editor is not its authorized spokesman, nevertheless we are a Baptist and feel that we have a right to a say in Baptist affairs. Therefore we express the opinion that the Baptist brotherhood would do themselves and the cause a great justice to stand by the present incumbent, Dr. J. S. Earle. The Economy Shoe Repair Shop J. C.

With the exception of the Central summer school held at the State college at Orangeburg this seems to be the largest colored summer school of the State. The instructors were J. L. Cain, Darlington; Mary E. Foster, Spartanburg, and Alice E. Webb of this place. Both the literary and the industrial exhibits indicate that the colored children of this section will profit from the school. At the close of the school resolutions of appreciation for the instructors were offered. Also for the hospitality extended by the people of Anderson, stating that the session had been the most pleasant and profitable that has ever been held here. Thanks were also extended to Professor E. C. McCants, superintendent of the city schools for the splendid courses of lectures which he had given. Expression of appreciation was also extended for the visits of Mr. J. B. Felton, State agent; Superintendent G. S. Goodgion, and L. M. Mahaffey; also H. B. Dominick and Miss Will Lou Grey. CHESTER PARAGRAPHS. Mr. J. S.

They are also informed that Mr. Alonzo P. Hardy who, in point of service, is the oldest licensed embalmer and undertaker in Columbia, and Mr. William Manigault, the widely and favorably known clothier of the city, have formed a copartnership under the firm name of Hardy & Manigault, Undertakers and Embalmers. Their place of business is 1012 Washington Street. The building which was formerly the Royal Theater has already been completely renovated and admirably adapted to the needs of the new firm. In addition to the department for equipage, stock, and offices a commodious chapel has been provided. And their large and varied stock of caskets and complete motor equipment for funerals enable them promptly and satisfactorily to serve all grade of requirements desired. They have, moreover, provided prompt ambulance service for emergency calls, transportation of patients to hospital, to X-ray, to or from trains. Both Mr. Hardy and Mr. Manigault have long been identified with the business life of Columbia and the contiguous territory. They plead their business experience, their ample preparedness to render the public the quantity and quality of service desired together with the reasonableness of their prices in all cases as the reason for their expectation that the public will give the new firm of Hardy & Manigault, Undertakers, due consideration.

We regret very much to announce the disconnection of two of our worthy teachers, namely, Miss Ola A. Glenn and Miss Daisy K. Roach. Miss Glenn was one of the faculty for the past four years and Miss Roach for the past three years. Their work gave perfect satisfaction. These two young ladies leave of their own volition. They were re-elected in May but they had decided to go into a new field. Miss Glenn will do similar work in North Carolina. Miss Roach, we learn, has already entered her new field. She is co-partner in an up-to-date millinery and dress making establishment in the city of Columbia, S. C. The Trustee Board of Seneca Institute take this method of thanking these ladies for their work in the past and to bid fair to them in their new field of labors. May God's richest benediction abide with them. (Signed) The Board, Rev. T. A. Gibeon, Chairman; Rev. J. J. Blassengame, Secy.
