He Shows That "Facts is Facts" Before our great National Baptist convention was split, as now, I was, at one time, the corresponding secretary of its Educational Department. My duties, as such, required me to attend the State conventions, and other annual bodies, of Negro Baptists throughout the United States. I readily perceived that the proceedings of no other State convention of Negro Baptists functioned with so little of politics in evidence as was unmistakably true of the Baptist State convention of South Carolina. Of that fact I was ever proud. And of it, I have often boasted. Since scrambling for office had previously been so unknown in our State convention, I was greatly pained when, immediately after the death of Dr. Durham, the querry, "Who will be president?" became rife and candidates for that position began increasingly to make their ambition known. So disgusted was I because of this change for the worse in our conventional life, I gave utterance to my disgust in an article which appeared in the People's Recorder of January 15th. In that article, among other things, I said: With absolute certainty, I can tell you who will not be chosen. But the subject, while a most delicate one just now is and will increasingly be, a most important one because—Thus far, in all of its long history, the convention has had but three presidents, Brockenton, Raiford, Durham, each of whom had much natural, as well as acquired, ability, together with ripe and varied experience, for leadership. Each of them was signally characterized by a remarkably placidity of temperament and, under just cause for provocation, unusual self-control. Other than as a larger field for quantity and quality of service, none of them had cause to desire the presidency of the convention, for the reason that each of them prior to being president had already held within the denomination, strong man may magnify the difference is not magnified by it, either of them would have, apart from the position, been equally influential in the councils of the denomination. The facts are that a man who is made greater by the office he holds is not a big enough man for the given office. For that reason, men best suited for positions do not the positions seeks but are for the positions sought. Neither Brockenton nor Raiford, nor Durham made aught of personal effort for the place. They did not do so because the place needed them more than was their desire for it. "I once attended a Baptist State Convention in another State where more than a whole day was consumed in an effort to elect a president. A president was finally chosen. But while the political methods employed placed a man in the position, those very methods, at the very same time, divested him of the dignity and respect which with the position ought have gone. You may well consider it a truth eternal that until politics shall have be one more nearly pure or Christianity wholly altogether rotten, the two can be mixed only to the depriment of the cause of Jesus Christ, our Lord. To the employment of any such admixture, the Negro Baptists of South Carolina have thus far accrued to go. And I earnestly hope that I shall have long lain in my grave before, if ever, any such evil day shall upon them come. "I know well the rank and file of the Baptist brethren in South Carolina. And because I know them so well, I tell you, without any hesitancy, this: Should any man dare to lower our Christian and denominational ideals by personally canvassing or otherwise self-seeking the place, he will gently be awakened to the fact that he has automatically eliminated himself from consideration for it. What ought be done in the matter of the choice of a president and denominational leader will be done, and that will be this: When the Convention has assembled, and at the psychological time, a session of earnest heart-melting prayer for guidance will be held, followed by nominations, in which no great speech making will feature, and then will be chosen for the place a man in whose selection no mistake will be made because the Holy Spirit will have guided in the choice." Selah! What I then wrote was, at that time, exceedingly appropriate. Just now, it is far more so because we are now seeing newspaper discussions, and hearing of swappings of influence, in behalf of this and that candidate for the place. "These things ought not so to be." "Facts is facts," and, under present conditions, it is undeniably true, political canvassing to the contrary notwithstanding, that as rightly might a man aspire to become the lawful husband of a woman whose lawful husband was yet alive and adequately on the job, as for any candidate to The Southern Indicator aspire to oust Dr. Earle from the presidency at the next session of the Baptist State convention. Because—1. With the knowledge that Dr. Durham was in feeble health and with the understanding that, in the choice of a vice president, the man most suited to be successor to the presidency must be chosen, Dr. Earle was, year after year, for five succeeding years, reelected vice president that the mantle of the convention's Elijah might fall upon him, the convention's deliberately chosen Elisha. "Facts is facts." 2. In recognition of that Elijah and Elisha understanding, the Executive Board of the convention, at its meeting in January, did, on motion of Dr. J. C. White of Columbia, formally declare Dr. Earle the convention's president. In addition, all the members of that Board and all the Baptist preachers, in Columbia gave President Earle pledges of their loyalty to, and hearty co-operation with, his administration. In consequence, every member of that Board and every Baptist preacher in Columbia is morally obligated neither to give, nor be used to give, President Earle any opposition at the next session of the convention. "Facts as facts." 3. President Earle has not yet had a fair try out nor adequate time in which to inaugurate any constructive plans, much less accomplish their sustained fulfillment. In consequence, to fail to elect him president and thereby give him a square deal opportunity would be un-Christian, unjust, and a gross, unnecessary, but wicked reflection upon his character or ability. Even Christian bodies ought occasionally strive to do that which is Christian and just to one of their number. 4. President Earle is a college and theological graduate of Benedict and as a ripe scholar will take front rank with the best. In constructive work denominationally, he is second to none among us. In parliamentary knowledge and judicial poise as well as in central he If these things be true and they are undeniably true—unless righteousness be dethroned by ungodly ambition and simply be given a back seat by misdirected friendship, President Earle will be unanimously elected at the coming session of our Baptist State convent.on. "What I have written, I have written." "Facts is facts." DR. T. M. BOYKIN SPEAKS. The Baptist Educational and Missionary State Convention of South Carolina will hold its annual session in Columbia, at the Union Baptist church, November 16-18. I am desirous that the brotherhood of "one Lord, one faith, and one Baptism" shall duly know that "all things are ready—comet!" For your reception, entertainment and comfort, Union Baptist church has already prepared. This is true of our Baptists in particular and all Columbaians in general. Know ye that Columbia is preponderantly a Baptist town and when you come, you will largely come to your own. Send all the delegates you wish and let all the visitors who deser come! We are not only a mighty Baptist host but we are a united host. As one man all of our Baptist pastors are working and as one all of our Baptist churches are preparing to care or you properly when you come. The Executive Board of the State convention met in Columbia October 4, at which time it was agreed that all persons attending the convention would pay for entertainment $1.50 per day. All who expect to attend will please notify me at once. T. M. Boykin, Pastor Union Baptist Church, 712 Assembly St., Columbia, S. C. An editorial squib in The People's Recorder last week has the following to say, with the authority of Dr. P. P. Watson: "In a recent issue of The Recorder an article which had to say about the missionary work in this State. In connection with this same article Dr. P. P. Watson asks that those who are interested in mission work read his report of last year from missionary work done in this State." It has been the pleasure of ours to read very satisfactorily the reports of Dr. Watson for the past four years and while we have not kept up with many missionary reports that preceded COLUMBIA, S.C.

Not only has Dr. Watson raised his own salary on the field and does a greater amount of missionary work But Dr. Watson's reports show that he has turned over money to the convention, aided young men in school who were aspirants to the ministry and has placed the Ten Commandments into more needed places throughout South Carolina, reminding young men and women of their higher duties than all the combined forces in the State. Aside from this Dr Watson has also placed the church covensants into the hands of thousands who hitherto knew not of them.

About 8:30 last Sundy morning fire damaged the beautiful and handsomely furnished home of Mrs. A. P. Dunbar, at 1213 Barnwell street. Eyewitnesses to the scene estimate that at least damage to the building alone not less than $3,000 to say nothing of the furniture. The building and contents were covered by insurance. Just how the fire originated is not known but the blaze was discovered in the roof and serious accidents were narrowly averted. REV.

THE WOODS HABER DASHERY CORPORATION Woods Haberdashery Corporation Fills Great Demand. Shares Now Offered Throughout South Carolina. 25% Profit Easy. A Purely Racial Enterprise Offering. Employment to its Own. Columbia, S. C., Oct. 12, 1921. We have made a very good start in our Clothing Business when we take into consideration how business has fallen off in all sections of the country. The Clothing Business is a business that but a few Negroes have ventured to run. Those of us that have tried have made the Jews sit up and take notice. One thing that has kept so many people out of the Clothing Business is, they have not been able to get sufficient money to buy stock. In advising my race to go in this line of business, I always tell them to first sink capital, then the business will come. There was never a time in the history of our lives when we needed Negro enterprises like this more than today. We need stores of every kind; just to think in the city of Columbia and as many colored people as we have here we have not a Ladies Ready-to-Wear store in town, and it is up to us as a race striving to take our places among other races to establish suitable enterprises so that we might be able to give our boys and girls something to do after they have finished their college career. Our girls are coming out of college without any place to apply their education, and it is up to us as men to make places for them. The white man is striving daily to create new places for his boys and girls as they march from the college walls and enter the avenues of life. We can do the same by pooling our forces and bending our efforts in the same direction. Three merchants in a city like this will never be able to educate our people to patronize the Negro enterprises. Our company is known is every nook and corner of this State thing short about Negro enterprises, and that is: We have been unable to get competent bookkeeping. We have no Business College like the other race from which we can secure competent stenographers and it is up to us as men that are standing for something in a community to try to see to it that such courses are established. The constant demand made upon the members of the Woods Haberdashery Corporation to increase our business to larger proportions whereby we will be able to reach customers throughout the State by mail order, etc., and to establish, if possible, Woods Haberdashery Stores throughout the State, where they are necessary, to supply our people with Heberdashery goods in all of its ramifications and in such quantities as will conduce to the influence of a Clothing Business, operated by colored people. By the advice of our customers we have in incorporated Woods Haberdashery Business, located at 1124 Washington St., Columbia, S. C., to meet this demand. The Woods Haberdashery Corporation is a regularly incorporated institution, under the laws of South Carolina, authorized capital stock, $25,000 divided into 5,000 shares of par value, $5.00 each, issued fully paid and ncissessable. They are transferable on the books of the corporation by persons or attorney. All stock is common to all holders and each share alike according to the number of shares he owns. No responsibility attaches to the holder of stock beyond the amount he buys. Purchases may be made in any quantity desired while they last. The shares are being placed on the market throughout South Carolina. Application for the purchase may be made through the official representative of the Woods Haberdashery Corporation on special forms or direct from L. B. Woods, President.

Prof. Wilson's "Somewhat to Say" this week, bearing upon the presidential campaign now waged by some in a very quiet but determined way ought to bring at naught such fallacy. This article should be read by every Baptist throughout South Carolina; or it really gives the facts in the matter. No Baptist in the State should longer be misguided as to the presidency of the convention nor what has transpired to cause Dr. Earle to be the accepted vice president for the past four years and the most logical and acceptable president at the coming session. WOULD NOT BE GOAT. Customer Pays For Shoes After Lcng Delay. Greenwood, S. C., Oct. 11.—"I don't want to be a goat," read a note inclosing a check for a pair of shoes taken on approval from a local shoe store here over a year ago, which was received today by the shoe dealer after he had made fruitless efforts to collect or have the shoes returned. The constance stitched possessor of the shoes declared he had read about the separation of the sheep from the goats in the observance of "pay up week" here this week, and wished to be numbered with the sheep." Editor's Note—This week is "pay up week" with several of odr subscribers in Greenwood. We should like for them to conclude as did the person above referred to in their city—"don't be a goat." Inidentally we say to hundreds in other cities and towns, even here in Columbia, don't be a goat, "be numbered with the sheep." NEAL-GARDNER Mr. Aaron Neal, formerly of this city but now of Florida, and Mks Mae Gardner, sprung quite a surprise on their many friends when they met in Philadelphia on the 25th of September and were happily united as husband and wife.

Judging from the number of touring cars passing through the city headed southward, the seashore loiters are being driven back home by the autumn breezes and, by the way, that reminds us that not only is it true that Southern Negroes don't like Northern climates in the dead of the winter but some "white folks" don't like it. * * * Think not that it is Henry Lincoln Johnson who has lost, alone, the ap pointment as recorder of deeds, but that the race has failed to get due recognition. *** From one act of unlawfulness to another, Georgia moves, but there seems to be a state of peonage throughout the State. In Pekin county three white farmers are held under bond for $3,000, each charged with holding three colored citizens in peonage. May they have the full measure of the law. *** Despite the ravages of the bell weevil and cut worms, our honest subscribers are gradually paying their just dues to us. Those who cannot pay up at present are writing asking for extension of time, when they will pay their just dues with the request that the paper be continued. *** We note in an editorial squib in The Atlanta Independent of last week that our Rev. Dr. W. H. Moses endorses the Ku Klux Klan. The Independent, however, does not refer to this Rev. Moses as the nation-wide known Dr. Moses. It simply says "one W. H. Moses from Texas, Pennsylvania and everywhere." The squib reads thus: "The latest freak of nature or monstrosity is a Negro preacher defending and justifying the existence of the Ku Klux Klan—one W. H. Moses from Texas, Pennsylvania and everywhere else except the habitat of the devil." If this be the well known Dr. Moses who one pastored in this State and st ill makes us a yearly visit, we would admonish the Baptist bethron to let the bad gentleman know that he will no longer be the welcome visitor he on e was. Such a character as this endorsing or defending the Ku Klux Klan, an organization built upon hatred for the Negro, is by no means a friend to his race and should be ostracised. Dr. J. C. S. Nevis, upon whom has been entrusted the task of putting over the "Big 30 Days' Drive" for the United Investment Company, which operates the Regal Drug Store, returned from Wilmington, Delaware, last week and is now on the job putting over this drive. While the Columbia Negroes are in the mode of putting over big things as well as small things now is the time when we should all line up and take stock. Beyond a reasonable doubt, the Regal Drug Store is one of the biggest propositions in the State, and one of the best paying propositions into which Columbians can invest their money. The object of increasing the capital stock from $20,000 to $45,000 is to put in reach of every man and woman in Columbia the opportunity of becoming a part of the first and most substantial racial proposition in the city of Columbia owned, operated and controlled exclusively by Negroes. Another feature of this big proposition is last, but by no means, the least, to teach racial co-operation. The shares are $10.00 each. Subscribe for as many as you want but by all means subscribe for some and help to put Columbia in AI progressive class. The step to employ the unemployed, we trust, will also in lude many worthy young Negro boys other than through the police court to the city or county chain gang. There are scores of Negro boys who want work and are really in search of it each day to no In our editorial mention last week in which we dealt with "The Negro Printer," some of the who read it and have an idea of the struggles of a publisher of a newspaper, inquired why we did not appeal for printing in our own defense, since publishing The indicator at times draws heavily on our job printing department. At the time we were wrapped up in the cause of the race and provoked by some who did not make a mistake but had done great wrong to Nego printers. Therefore we took a broader view of the situation. at it a fact, however, that some business and professional men think that a newspaper is not only self-sustaining but should be profitable by reason or returns from subscriptions and advertisements, and therefore when they subscribe or give an ad they expect that to keep the paper going profitably to the publisher and their job printing can be distributed miscellaneously anywhere else. Yet some of these same people allow their subscriptions and advertising bills to lag until some of them are actually cut off the list for lack of payment. But with the steady increase of enterprises and racial co-operation even the publishers of newspapers will benefit thereby in the near future. ONE EXCEPTION. The Negro press of this country, with but one exception, (as there is always an exception to the best things by some) is a unit in condemning President Harding's administration and that exception is The New York Age. As the Negro papers are but the voice of the people and especially in this particular crisis, The New York Age is bound to lower its high standard. We are at a loss, along with the other Negro journals of this country, to understand why The Age should get altogether in a class to itself against the race in a matter of such vital importance as the political situation of this country today and the granting to Negroes merited recognition at the hands of the president. Some time ago the cheap white politicians of Virginia who believe in the Republican administration because it is in power but who cannot be lined up with Negroes, met and organized as they have attempted to do in South Carolina and Georgia, a lily white party to the exclusion of Negroes. in Virginia they succeeded behind locked doors guarded by policemen. With the Negroes of Virginia there was but one course to pursue and that was to organize them lives and eliminate a full State ticket in protest of the lily whites. This they did. Referring to this act on the part of Virginia Neese, Edna Moore has left following to say: * "This ebulition of feeling was to be expected as a natural result of the policy which would lessen the patronage doled out to the race in the Southern States. It is well to face the facts in the case without evasion or disuse of the real issues involved. That the Republican party in the South has not been of late years any more than a skeleton organization, sufficient to make a showing at a National Convention and furnish delegates whose votes have been a source of scandal and concession. It seems that Editor Moore is sitting hard and fast on the fence, hoping for some self-consideration at the hands of this administration and at the cost of the race. Here is hoping that his will be a heavy blow of disappointment that he will join his collaborors for justice to the race. NEW ENTERPRISES FOR COLUMBIA On the 3rd of September the Industrial Building and Loan Association, a strictly racial enterprise, opened its books of subscription and is doing a creditable business. Mr. N. H. Collins is the affable and business-like president Today, October 15th, The Victory Savings Bank will open its doors for business temporarily in The Royal Theater building. It is hoped that this opening will be creditable and lasting. Some of the best business men in the city are connected with this bank in an official way, many of whom control thousands of dollars that will be placed in this bank on this date. This is a new venture in an untried field for Columbians and The Indicator would admonish the officials to steer clear of unhealthy criticisms. Another new enterprise for Columbia is the Leevy Clothing store at 1131 Washington street, which will no longer open for business on the 15th. Mr. Leevy has spent several thousand dollars remodeling this store and placing therein new fixtures and new stock. For the time being this store on Washington street will be a branch to Mr. Leevy's Taylor Street store. A nice line of millinery is the addition to the. Washington street store. Miss Lanne Kernickson, who has conducted a millinery shop in 1850, arrives street a number of years, will be connected with the millinery department.

Crowded Waverley School. Crowded Waverley School. The patrons of Waverley Union School for Negroes would certainly appreciate the much needed improved conditions of that school. The classrooms are over crowded and more teachers are badly needed because of this unwholesome condition. Certainly conditions can not remain thus and the children receive justice. It seems that Districts 3 and 4 are somewhat combined through a mistake of some kind. The school building belongs to District No. 3 yet it is built in District No. 4 with only teachers sufficient for District No. 3, and no school building for the accommodation of children in District No. 4. Certainly this is a matter that the trustees of both districts should harmonize on the one school building at present and begin arrangements for the necessary change next year. Time is passing too rapidly to delay this all important matter with many children who are entitled to proper school accommodations in these districts are, some of them, forced to go to pay schools and some by reason of these depressing times must remain one of school. The patrons of Waverley have expressed and are still expressing great anxiety, that the trustees take immediate steps to alleviate these conditions.
