NEGROES OF MISSISSIPPI WANT VARDAMAN DEFEATED IN RACE FOR U. S. SENATE An Exponent of Truth and Justice VOL. XI NO. 20 NEGROES OF M WANT VARDAN IN RACE FOR His Past Records Cited As So Not Be Returned To S Stephens, A Man Who I mary Next Tuesday, Sep Registered Colored Voter The Colored people all over America will learn with a great deal of satisfaction that ex-United States Senator James K. Vardaman, of Mississippi, failed of nomination for the United States Senate in the first Primary in Mississippi, held on August 1, by several thousand votes. Under the laws of Mississippi, a candidate for the Democratic nomination for any office must receive a majority of the votes cast at the Primary. In the event of a failure by any one candidate to poll such majority, the two leading candidates enter into a second primary or "run off." In this particular case in Mississippi, there were three, candidates for the Democratic nomination: a white woman, named Miss Belle Kerney; Congressman Hubert D. Stephens and Ex-Senator Vardaman. Miss Kerney polled only about 18,000 votes, and is therefore, out of the second race. Vardaman led Mr. Stephens by something like six thousand votes and goes into the run off with that lead. The second primary will be held September 5, and the candidate which polls the most votes on that date will be the Democratic nominee. Nomination Equivalent to Election. Owing to the fact that the Democratic Party, practically controls Mississippi, a nomination by that party is equivalent, to an election, and the general election in November is only a ratification. As a general rule, the Colored people have very little choice, between two white Democrats, but, because of the fact that we have fifteen thousand registered voters in the State, we feel that we would be disloyal to our friends and the entire Colored race if we did not take sides in this Mississippi contest. Mr. Stephens has always been a true friend to the Colored race, by inheritance, by environment and by choice. His father before him a prominent member of the Mississippi Legislature, during the reconstruction days, set an excellent example for his distinguished son by consistently advocating the political equality of the Colored people MADE MILLIONS IN REAL ESTATE Young Man. Only 38 Years Old, Started With Nothing. Now Shelters Eleven Thousand Of His Race. Watt Terry Is Liberal With Money. One of the interesting features of the recent session of the National Negro Business League at Norfolk, was Business League at Norfolk, was the business talk by Watt Terry of Brockton, Mass. His talk was inspiring and helpful to all who heard him. Naturally the presence of a Negro millionaire in any audience causes a thrill of joyful surprise and exasperation. Editor Moore stated that Watt Terry, who came from Brockton, Mass, to New York City, some five or six years ago, now owns in 140th Street fifteen apartment houses with 1576 rooms and in other parts of Harlem fifteen apartment houses and stores which furnish shelter for over 11,000 Negroes. "The values of Watt Terry's properties in Brockton and New York," he said, "are worth $2,300,000." Watt Terry made a very favorable impression on the great audience, which had assembled in the Attucks Theater, on account of his modesty, his candor, and his common sense. "Almost evergone," he said "can become a property owner, provided he is willing to pay the price in sacrifice Standing on the street corners, idling in poolrooms, spending time in quiescent resorts have never helped anybody purchase property. We need in the Negro race more honest leaders Negroes have suffered too many losses through so-called leaders. The National Negro Business League has always condemned the floating of worth less stock among Negroes. Recently this Negro millionair subscribed $300 to the National Negro scribed $500 to the Y. M. C. A.; $500.00 to the National Negro Business League; and $5000 for the rebuilding of his old church in Brockton. SPECIAL SERVICES AT BEREA PRES. CHURCH SUN. Miss Katherine Smith Of Macon, Mo.

Peace. These two names are not popular among the white people of Mississippi because they stand for Justice. Fairness and Equality. In other words, the grinding to the Colored race of these privileges to which they are entitled under the Constitution and which they have earned on the battlefields of France, by following the stars and stripes of America under the leadership of the great and just Democratic President Woodrow Wilson. Has Negroes' Confidence. The present candidate. Congressman Stephens, has shown approval of his distinguished father's course, taken so long ago by publicly endorsing it from the public platform throughout the State of Mississippi. This shows him to be by his own words the true and loyal friend of the Colored man, and we can expect of him in his course in the United States Senate absolute fairness and advocacy of equal rights and justice to all, regardless of race or color. With the man Vardaman in the Senate, we can only expect the protection he gave us as governor of Mississippi. That is not enough, we want our electoral rights granted by the Constitution and as promised by Woodrow Wilson. With men such as Mr. Stephens in the United States Senate, the Colored man in the State of Mississippi stands a chance of realizing these rights. With such men as Vardaman in the Senate, we can only hope to play the small part in running the government of these United States, our United States. If you please, as we are now playing, Under the circumstances, we feel that every Colored man, not only in Mississippi, but throughout America, will use his best efforts and his influence, both material and otherwise, to secure the Colored man's future in Mississippi by helping the Democrats of that state to send to the United States Senate our friend, Hubert D. Stephens. LIBERTY LIFE MAKES RECORD Business Over Million And Half During First Year. J.M. Weil Points Out Success Company Has Made. J. M. Wiel, formerly of St. Louis special representative of the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Chicago passed through this city a few days ago enroute to Arkansas in the interest of his company. During his brief stop here Mr. Wiel "talked insurance." He was quite enthusiastic over the success of the Liberty Life. He called attention to the fact that during the first year of actual operation, the company had written more than one million and seven hundred thousand dollars worth of business. "This is a record" he said, of which very few, if any Life Insurance Companies can boast."

ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 1. 1922 What Uncle Sam Is Doing For Disabled World War Veterans CRIT CLARK IS NOT WORRIED McChesney, Defeated, Dying Hard. Clark The Winner Is Resting At Randolph Spr., And Not Bothered About Non-Residence Charges, Declares He Has Been Legally Nominated. A deal of surprise has been expressed by the people in the district and city generally, following a press report, stating that Harry McChesney filed another suit in his efforts to defeat Crittenden Clark from enjoying the suffrage and confidence of the voters of the Fourth District, who nominated Clark for their Justice of the Peace. It being cited that McChesney sought to defeat Clark by a record of the bullets, which resulted only in a gain for Clark. Now it is said that McChesney will go into court and try to prove that Clark is not a citizen of the district and therefore, has no right to the office. "Dying hard," is the comment heard concerning McChesney's latest move; "if he has no more influence then to allow an outsider to come into his district and defend him, he should go" is the comment of one of the political bosses who does not want his name mentioned at this time. When called over long distance phone at Randolph Springs, and advised of McChesney's contemplated action, Mr. Clark said 'he was not surprised to see or bear of any action taken to keep his name off the ballet. He said, "I have won the nomination by the vote of the people in the district and feel I am entitled to the office. I think if a joke about my non-residence in the district, I am not worried about that, for my return to the city I will look into the matter." Mr. and Mrs. Clark are spelling a week at Randolph Springs for a much needed rest following the campaign. CITIZENS BREAK UP A KU KLUX KLAN MEETING AT PITTSBURGH, PA Residents Seeing Burning Cross, Rush To Park With Guns, Clubs And Brooms. Preston News Service Pittsburgh, Pa., Aug. 29 Armed with shurghus, clubs and brooms, men and women late Friday night routed a score of members of the Ku Klux Klan who were going through the initiation ceremonies of the klan in Olympia Park, Duquesne Heights. Four automobiles, containing members of the klan drove to the park shortly after 11 p.m. and after donning their robes, created a cross and limited it. As the cross burned the klan formed a circle around it, and started their ceremonies of initiation. Residents seeing the reflection of the burning cross in the sky rushed to the park, armed with guns, clubs and brooms and within five minutes hundreds of men and women swarmed into the park. The klansmen, discovering that trouble was imminent, removed their robes and jumped into the waiting automobiles and sped away. The enraged men and women tore down the cross and destroyed it. When departing the klansmen left a picket of 100 newspapers printed in Georgia purporting to show the strength and work the klan is performing. The papers were burned by the angry citizens. ALABAMA COMMISSIONER SAYS STREET CARS MUST HAVE SEPARATE DOORS ALABAMA COMMISSIONER SAYS STREET CARS MUST HAVE SEPARATE DOORS BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Aug. 31.—Negroes and white people should be entirely separated on Birmingham street car, not even be permitted to board trellis or alight from the same entrance or exit" declared Win. L. Harrison, commissioner of Public Utilities. He told officials of the local street railways' company. "The use of the new pay as you enter cars, which require all passengers to enter by the rear door is both dangerous and undesirable, because of the contact between the races. While your seating arrangement provides separate compartments for the races, white passengers are required by the rear door with Negro passengers. "I have already heard that race trailers have been parrowly averted on several occasions since installation of this new type of car. On the old style car white passengers entered by and alighted from the rear door; while Negro passengers used the front door, occupying forward part of the trolley for seats. "I am unalterably opposed to the use of this new type of car under present arrangements, and therefore recommend that provision be made for separate entrance and exit for the races." WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug 28. There are approximately 180,000 disabled, veterans receiving vocational training under the U. S. Veterans' Bureau. This training is afforded in technical schools, colleges, and universities as well as in business establishments, shops, and on farms. The object of this training is to overcome the vocational handicaps caused by service disabilities by training them in a new location whereby they are able to become self-supporting citizens. This work is being carried on under the direction of Col. 'Charles R. Forbes, Director of the Veterans' Bureau. There are several thousands colored e- service men receiving training under the Veterans' Bureau. A large number of them are receiving training in such well known Negro educational institutions as the Tuskegee School in Alabama and the Hampton Institute in Virginia. At Hampton Institute disabled Negro soldiers from Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina and the District of Columbia are being given vocational training. Training is being given in this school in power plant management, automobile repairing, tailoring, business methods, agriculture, cabinet making, upholstering, machine work and carpentry. Hampton Institute is the first industrial school for Negroes established in this country and was founded by General Samuel C. Armstrong over 53 years ago. More than 800 graduates and former students of Hampton Institute collested in the service during the World War. A number of these service men became disabled. In the Central Office of the "Veterans' Bureau in Washington, Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, Technical Assistant, is in charge of the colored e- service men receiving vocational training and he keeps contact with these disabled Negro soldiers in various technical institutions as well as those who are receiving practical training in shops and on farms. A number of these trainees have completed their training and are now in employment. Essay Smith, a colored veteran from Iola, Mississippi, whose previous vacation was that of a farm laborer has been trained as a shoe repairer. His disability consists of the loss of a leg. He also took elementary subjects in addition to shoe repairing as he was illiterate at the time he entered training. He is now the owner and manager of a shoe repair shop at Marks, Mississippi, and according to reports to the Veterans' Bureau is now making excellent progress. He received his training at Tuskegee Institute. Another trainee who also received his training at Tuskegee Institute is Thomas Jones whose previous vacation was that of a laborer. His education consisted of four years in a grade school. He entered Tuskegee Institute in September 1919, with the employment objective of tailoring, including cleaning, pressing, repairing as well as taking elementary subjects. He was rehabilitated in May 1922 and immediately entered business for himself at West Point, Mississippi. Thomas Jones states in a letter to the vocational officer at Tuskegee Institute that his first months work netted him $120. Another successful case of rehabilitation is George Burkes of Woodville, Mississippi whose previous vocational experience was that of a farm laborer. His education consisted of two years of grade school. He entered training at Tuskegee in September 1919 with the objective of cremery worker and dryman and he completed his course in May 1922. This veteran is now employed with a large cremery company at Louisville, Ky. His record at Tuskegee Institute indicates that he is well qualified to earn a living at this vocation. Another successful case of rehabilitation is Eugene Gibson whose previous vocational experience was that of a farm laborer. He entered training in July 1919 at Tuskegee Institute with the training objective as carpenter. He also took elementary subjects in addition to his trade work as he was practically illiterate. Since rehabilitation he has been employed as a carpenter by a contractor and is now receiving 30 per hour for a 10 hour day. These cases mentioned are typical examples of, what can be accomplished by conscientious students who take advantage of their vocational training. Not all of these colored ex-service men are in training in trades, however, as a large number of them are receiving training in agriculture, commerce and the professions. A number of these trainees have been rehabilitated in agriculture and are now conducting their own farms or are employed as skilled farm laborers and drymen. There are 90 disabled colored men in training in the different trades at the Tuskegee Institute. One of the big problems has been in training a veteran who is lacking in the required educational qualifications. Many of the trainees who are taking up trades are practically illiterate. Tuskegee Institute requires that all regular students must have reached the 6th grade before they can begin trade or vocational training. Thus the Veterans Bureau trainees due to the fact that they are accepted in this practically illiterate condition must be handled and grouped separately to be instructed along practical lines. They are also given a certain amount of elementary education and shop mathematics so as to meet the requirements of their trade. Stop, look, listen, and then learn how deep the water is before you dive. The "off" is so many soviet leaders names seems particularly appropriate. Hitting only the high spots is safer when availing than it is when motorizing. Baptist Convention Is Indefinitely Postponed National Organization Was To Have Met In Los Angeles, Sept. 6-11 Special To The Argus Schla, Ala. Aug 28. The National Baptist Convention, representing a constituency of more than 3,000,000 Negroes, scheduled to meet in Los Angeles, California September 6-11, has been indefinitely postponed. At a committee meeting of the Executive Board held in Memphis, Tennessee, August 25, it was unanimously decided to postpone said meeting because of strike and other hazardous conditions. Baptists and friends throughout the country are asked to note this and be governed accordingly. By order of the Executive Board. E C. Morris, President; R D. Hudson, Secretary. OFFICER JAILED FOR FAILURE TO PROTECT NEGRO OFFICER JAILED FOR FAILURE TO PROTECT NEGRO Federal Judge Faris Fines Policeman $250 And Sentences Him To 3 Months For Permitting Strikers To Beat Railroad Cook. Federal Judge Faris Thursday sentenced Policeman Oscar Steers, 64 years of age, of Hannibal, Mo. to three months in the Charles County Jail and to a fine of $250, for permitting strikers to beat a Negro cook employed in the Burlington shops. The judge declared he gave Steers the light sentence because of his age and because the Mayor of Hannibal had tipped Steers the wink to be "looking the other way when these assaults occurred." Like Roman Emperors. In passing sentence, Judge Faris said: "It was your duty to protect this man, regardless of his color or the fact that he was being attacked by union men. You were doing the same thing the Emperors of Rome did when they tossed the Christians to the lions, except that the Emperors of Rome were animals, who were tossing those people to other animals, and you had years of teachings of civilization to cause you to know better." Fred Morris, the cook, who was assaulted by about 15 or 20 men after he had appealed to Policeman Steers for protection, testified yesterday that the policeman had "turned him over to the mob." Policeman Steers asserted the crowd took Morris away from him as he sought to draw his revolver, but Deputy United States Marshals said they saw the policeman standing by, making no attempt to rescue Morris. NO MAIL DELIVERIES AFTER DEC. 26 TO HOMES WITHOUT RECEPTACLES Postoffice Department Issues Order Affecting Dwelling Houses. Must Have Boxes, Or Slot In Door. WASHINGTON, Aug. 30. Orders to stop delivery of mail to every dwelling house in the United States which is not provided with a slot or receptacle for mail at the front door after Dec. 26, have been issued by the Post, office Department. All new houses must be provided with the same at once. The decision was made because of the time being lost by, carriers who must knock or ring a bell and wait for someone to appear and receive the mail. NEGRO TO BE APPOINTED BY PRESIDENT HARDING NEGRO TO BE APPOINTED BY PRESIDENT HARDING Some encouragement has been expressed among the colored people generally over the report that President Harding has made pp. his mind to appoint Walter L. Cohen of New Orleans as Naval Officer of the Port of New Orleans. The duties of the office will be somewhat like those of "auditor" having many assistants as subordinates. The appointment of Mr. Cohen is expected to be made within a few days, in as much as it is understood that he has the unqualified backing of Attorney General Daugherty and Chairman Adams of the Republican National Committee. Littles or no opposition will be made against Mr. Cohen, as the Negroes seem to be united in the approval of his appointment. THE HUMAN KNOCKER. After God had finished making the rattlesnake, the toad, and the vampire He had some awful substance left with which He made a knocker. A knocker is a two-legged animal with a cork screw soul, a water-lagged brain and a combination of back bone made of jelly and bone. Where other men have their hearts he carries a tuner of reeaged principles When the knocker comes down the street, honest men turn their backs the angels weep tears; in Heaven, and the devil shuts the gates of hell to keep him out. Since Heaven not hell will admit a knocker, we will always be bothered with the knocker on this old earth. A Square Deal For Every Man PAGES PRICE 5 CENTS NEGRO SHOT AND BURNED AT A STAKE Mississippi Mob Lynches A Man In Quick Time. Crime Is Termed A "Quiet And Orderly Affair." Victim Believed To Be Innocent. Special To The Argus. GREENVILLE, Miss., Aug. 20.—What may be styled as a "quiet And orderly" lynching burning took place at Lamont, Bolivar County last Friday shortly after noon. The victim, L. Barrow, was caught by a mob after he had been wounded, was taken to the little "berg" and burned at the stake. No excitement seemed to prevail during the lynching burning. Few knew what was going on until flames from the coal oil and human flesh reached the skies. By the time the large crowd gathered, what was called the "fun" was over. Wild stories were told to the cause of the lynching-burning, but no one seemed to know just who was the cause. So far as could be learned, Barrow was a stranger in the community and had been employed on a plantation near Lamout. He had trouble with his employer and left the farm. He was followed to the little "berg" by his then former boss who told some of the neighbors that the Negro had attacked a white woman. As is usually the case, no efforts were made to insure who the woman was or what was meant by an "attack". It is generally believed now that it was a fake charge against the Negro because he dared to leave the plantation without the consent of his employer, who knowing the sentiment against the Negro, was attempting to regain his help. ATTEMPT TO BURN NEGRO HOMES IN DALLAS TEXAS Torches Applied To Bed Clothing In Two Houses. Man Arrested Sanity Is Questioned. Preston News Service DALLAS, Tex. Aug. 30—One man is being held in the city jail here whith others are being sought in connection with an alleged attempt to burn the dwellings of two prominent Negro families here last Tuesday night when torches were applied to the bed clothing of two homes. According to the police, the occupants of the houses were away at the time, and investigation shows that the two fires, started in the bed rooms where torches were found on the beds, each in the different houses. Fortunately the flames were 'dissolved before they got a good start and the losses were slight. It is said that the man now being held has admitted his guilt. The police, however, claim they are unable to find any motive for the crime. The prisoners will be turned over to the health authorities to inquire into his sanity. Dr. Darringon Weaver Is Arrested For Conspiracy Warrants, charges, conspiracy to defraud were issued this week against Dr. Darrington Weaver, physician, of 4330 Earring ave. and John Walker, alias Alen Wallace, of 2745 Morgan street, on complaint of the law firm of Bartley & Mayfield. William H. Bartley, one of the attorneys, alleges Weaver sent Waker to them with a band so bandaged that they took in good faith his case for damages against a jacking company and uninjured Waker was a $7 room-rent bill. When he failed to return the $3 change, the attor, neys investigated, they say, and found him to be minured. Waker was arrested. Police say he has admitted obtaining other sums for himself and Weaver in the same manner from other law firms. Dr. Weaver denies the charges. NEGRO JUDGE IN OHIO WASHINGTON C. H. Ohio, Aug. 29 -Hon John T. Oatmeal, of Washington C. H., Ohio enjoys distinction of being the only coedored municipal Judge, in Ohio and one of the very few in this country.

During this time she has not only written the play, "speeches and often the songs" for programs, but has selected her cast from the oldest members of the organization to the tiniest rots, and carefully trained each. No society or church large or small has failed to review her hearty considerations with little if any compensation. Her only exhibition has been to beth financed ally. Her work has now been arranged on a business basis and she hopes to be of even more service to the public than before. Each production shows market improvement.

Atkins. What's the gain - O rich; if thou hast bought and spent. And feasted and loitered to thy heart's content. content; Lying upon thy couch of leather. Reading about the changing weather? Till the mood feels better paid. By ringing for the waiting maid: Ah, faithful maid! humble and sweet. Who falls couching at her feet To catch the training of her evening gown. And smooth the wrinkles of her morn- ing frowr Whater thou might say, think or do, Thy maid is a worthy lady too. O thou rich! why pervert the path of the right and just? And ause fhes poor in thy riches to trust; Templets and mansions shall crumble and sway. Hut truth shall out-last the forces of decay. The rich in order his evil to spread, Selects the most subtle for his agent head; To keep the poor doubting, fearing and treembling. Quarling, hating, leasing and dissemin- ing. Then the rich o'er the poor his power to wield. Till the poor will despair and his very soul will yield: For the sake of a dollar and a living to gain. He will dare to walk in darkness or clerical chain. Rarely the rich knows where the census lies. Finds the prince and cuts down simply. Rounded. O ye rich! and ye sow to parry. For my body and riches shall mature. THE MARINE CORPORATION LABOR DAY SEPT. 4th MONDAY ALL DAY EXCURSION TO ALTON PHONE BOMONT 2333 R. GOODE, MANAGER.

The opening of the Central Automobile and Tractor School of Pittsburg, Kan., is in full accord and keeping with the National Movement for the Advancement of the Colored People. This is indeed commendable and worthy of special mention. This great institution has been admitting colored men for about three years and their graduates have been so successful that this coming year the students will be limited to colored only. The instructors are both trained men that can be both trained and gifted. More than one hundred and fifty sand dollars have been spent in building and equipment. This is the only school in the country anywhere where our colored men are getting a square deal by being taught the things that they will be called upon to do as auto mechanics, electricians, auto salesman and expert drivers of cars. This school deserves the patronage of all our men and boys everywhere, especially, those that are inclined toward automobile mechanics. Only those who really and truly expect to take that training should ask for their free catalog, as thousands of inquiries are being made for information. If you expect to attend that school, be sure to remember that the school is a memorial Remember the school and place. Central Automobile and Tractor School, Pittsburg, Kan.

Founders Of Negro Race One Of The Twelve Original Tribes Of Israel, News Of Today Compared With The Prophecy Of Hosea. PART TWO By going back to the old Testament and studying some of the prophets in the light of modern events orthodox religionists can see divine manifestation in present day occurrences and students of history who deny allyship with the prophets can trace the prophets with a wonderful ability to trace cause to effect. According to the Old Testament it was the mission of Israel to lead the world. Causits usually confuse the term "Israel" with the term "Jew". This mistake is the same as the one made when a citizen of the United States is called simply an American. Although a citizen of the U. S. is an American, an American is not necessarily a citizen of the U. S. and no more is an Israeli necessarily a Jew. Jews being descendants of the tribe of Judah, one of the twelve original tribals of Israel just as the United States is one of the several nations of America. Jerusalem of the old Testament was a trailing center patronized by the barbarian nations and caravans from the east and west. The Judens, or Jews, were and are traders and today are found scattered over the world although they have retained their tribal individualities. The tribe of Levi where the priests of Israel and a small remnant of their descendants can be found today observing the same customs and wearing the same style of clothing and worshiping in the same place. The people years before Christ was born, Shechem, the modern Samaria and house of the Levian remnant, is a town of some 27,000 inhabitants and lies about 10 miles north of Jerusalem. Its "song" or markets, would be a familiar scene to any bible student who has read biblical description of ancient Samaria of Jerusalem. THE LOST TRIES Hble students are familiar with the history of the Jews. Frologists claim to have connected these tribes, captured and carried away by Tigath-Plever, King of Assyria about the year 701 B. C., with the modern Danes, Gauls and Saxon. It is a reasonable contention. The Israeli tribe of Dan was known in bible times as sea rovers and strong men proud of their mana. Students of languages can easily connect up Denmark as D. aurea mark and the rivers Danube, D. aurea mark, Don (Thun), and Danes with the c left off in Danes and there are hundreds of place names known in Danish. Denmark is known as Jow known as Iseae. The words "Iseae's son" sound a lot like "Saxons." One of the prophecies, I think, said that the line of "David would forever rule. The bible tells of the Israelites settling the "Isles of the sea," modern Brittan. Although some critics of the bible claim that the line of David ended with the murder of the sons of Zedekiah there are others equally well informed, who claim that there was a daughter of Zedekiah taken in marriage by King Heremon of Ireland. Heremon's blood is shown by genealogists to run over in British tradition. It is authentically established that the stone under the British throne the "coronation stone" of ancient Israel which was brought with the Ark of the Covenant to the "Isles of the Sea." Negroes From Israel — Genieels 10:6 contains "And the sons of Ham; Cush and Mizraim and Phur and Canaan." We are all familiar with the curse of blackness and servile lording to biblical accurses. The meaning of "Cush" is black or blackamoor and the "Cush" was one of the messengers to the king announcing the death of Abasom. Nimrod, son of Cush, was "great in the land of Israel," a mighty hunter who carved out a kingdom, Babylon, Freecad and Calinch in the land of Nimar. Freecad and Calinch have established as facts that the dawn of civilization found the most advanced men as herdsmen and husbandmen and hunters. The laws of surryal would give to the strongest warriors control (by conquest if necessary.) the richest herdring grounds, the most fertile and most hospitable climate. The same laws would weaken people to travel and take up resilence only in countries the strongest did not want. Excepting for a narrow fringe of country around the Mediterranean Africa was the only land of plenty for mankind before modern arms and modern heating methods were discovered. The richest soil, the more beautiful the mansions and fortunate the vegetation in Africa the blacker are the inhabitants and Ham, Cush and Nimrod, according to the Bible were the fathers of all black men and Babylon the greatest city of ancient times.

One chronologer claims that this prophecy was made in the days of David and that David ruled during the year B. C. 1040. Now counting the three days of the prophecy as being 1000 years each, each year covers 360 days and days are counted in 1040 B. C. where the prophecy was made. "Detecting the 1040 Scriptural years B. C. from 3000 Scriptural years we have 1951 Scriptural years of 360 days each." Now reduces these 360 day years to our 365 and ¼ day lunar years, gives us this: 1950 x 360 days equals 702 360 days which divided by 365 and ¼ equals 1922 years. 11 months and some days or some days in November 1922 when it occurred in the year 1923, errored in my figuring, gives us the exact date within a few days when Israel will come again to her old home and worship of her God. Chronologists have written that Hoshea surrendered in the year 763, B.C. Dec. 10, 1917, the British General Allenby entered Jerusalem, Taking the government over from the Turks. The same order of figuring as shown of Israel's reformed government will result in a date in the year 1917, thus allowing a contention bearing out the prophecy made when Jacob bowed down before Esau. (Gen. 33:3), signifying the time that Israel should be subject to the "Gentiles" Gentiles in this case meaning Turk. The St. Louis Argus PROMINENT GEORGIA WHITES INDICTED FOR LYNCHING AT MACON, GA Men Arrested and Released On Bonds. Other - Indications - Expected. May Be "Whitewashed."

Barbaric Practice Of Putting Human Beings To Death Is Practiced Almost Wholly In America, And Has Become Unbearable. Law-abiding Citizens Asked To Pledge Their Unceasing Vigilance To Put To An End This Damnable Disgrace and Blot On Civilization. Realizing the growing menace of put an end to lynching in the United Lynching in America and the apparent State is now waiting to be called up laxity of those who administer the before the Senate for consideration and passage. This bill is known as National Negro Press Association adressed the following to the online Nine Newspaper the message of a bill of this type reading with laughing. plague and to every law abiding citizen of the Republican platform of 1920, and in the President's first message to Launching, the most brutal murderized and disgraceful method of outliving human beings to death, is practiced almost wholly in America. During the last thirty three years, 1329 such brutal crimes have been committed. Ninety-nine per cent of the unfortunate victims have been Negroes. About seventy five per cent of these victims never had a trial in any Kind of court. In 1921 fifty two people were tried. During the first six months of this very thirty people met their death in a horrific manner. If this ratio continues, this year's record will exceed that of last year Men were first the victims of the barbaric mobs, but now women and children are included in the moblist. The sanctity of Sunday has been trampled under the mobs' feet and the church has become in many cases the target of violence. Dyssheyng, Teun, a few years ago when "a chimp turned the congregation out, especially to attend the mob burning of a Negro. The mobbies has dishabbed his mask and also coated in confine his activities to the night, and automobiles have been used by the mob in hunting their victims. This state of affairs has become unreliable to the Negro citizenship of the United States. During the last thirty-five years he has had little or no relief from this barbaric practice. The state governments, with few exceptions, have shown a lack of interest in helping the Negroes, who have proven themselves wholly inadequate to carry out their laws. Even the great Federal Government with the power invested and implied in the President, Department of Justice and the two houses of Congress, has so far failed to even curb, let alone stamp out, this evil which is eating off the stubs of the entire nation. Lymphatic cancer is a serious government seems impatient to stop. The time has come when this terrible state of affairs must be reupholstered. A bill designed to curb if not wholly EVANGELIST U. S. WILLIS put an end to lynching in the United States, is now waiting to be called up before the Senate for consideration and passage. "This bill is known as the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, LAR 13. The passage of a bill of this type dealing with lynching, was pledged in the Republican platform of 1920, and in the President's first message to Congress he said, "congress ought to wipe the stain of barbaric lynching from the barrier of the free and orderly representative democracy." The time for the Republican party to carry out its pledges is now here. With a majority in the Senate now larger than ever in its history, and a bill which is declared by many to be sufficiently adequate in its provisions to curb and eventually to stop lynching, the Negress of this country, then, is commanded that this bill be passed before the present session of Congress adjournus. This bill is not a party measure but is a measure for humanity. Prominent Democrats as well as Republicans have condemned lynching in strong terms. The end of this damnable disgrace and terrible blot *civilization* must stop and to this end the Negro Press and all law abiding citizens pledge, in the right of all, to no excuse will be accepted on the supeper. All friends for their failure to pass this needed legislation. The Senate has the power and the time to pass it, and the Separates owe it to humanity and their country to do it. There can be no plausible excuse for a refusal to comply, which is so woozyly needed now. The Congress has appropriated and the Government has paid to other Governments no less a sum than $792,499.39 to compensate the murder by leaching of foreign citizens by American moles; and there are now deputies of State unadjusted criminal charges in similar murders of Austrians, Greeks Japanese and Italians. This sum of $792,499.39 was paid for less than 100 lives of foreigners taken by mob. The inquiry is pertinent: If we have paid $792,499.39 for less than 100 murdered lives, how much less has the country lost by the unmistakable 'burden of the murder' killed by mobs during the last thirty years? This Government can compensate families of Foreigners who have been killed on this soil, surely it can not do less than protect its own citizens in their home.

"The Dyer anti Lynching bill, in the hands of leading Republican and Democratic members of the committee constitutive. It is a political bill introduced by a Missouri congressman whose political future is in the hands of Negro voters. It will not put down Lynching, nor decrease the number of Lynchings. The bill will be fought bitterly by Southern members of Congress, who soils in the South or elsewhere, the time of Lynchings can make the fight of the Southners more difficult." "This, however, is not the reason lynching should be put down. Lynching should be put down because it is an atrocious and cowardly crime, because his proven to be a crime breed, because he is not guilty because it disreges the entire country."

NEW YORK, August 20—(Special) "Northern Negroes, feeling safe from lynchers, are not doing their utmost in the fight to secure passage of the anti-lynching bill which will put an end to lynching in this country," declared Pressman L. J. Dyer of Missouri, father of the slain William A. according to a letter from Mr. Dyer to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "If all the Negroes of the North would throw themselves vigorously into the fight, the bill would be passed and a death blow struck to the barbarism of mobs. I think it would be well for you to issue a special appeal to the colored people in the States where they have votes to get busy and please the Republican United States Senate rewrite them to pass the anti-lynching bill before this session of the Senate adjourns." Mr. Dyer continued. James Welbon Johnson, in referring to Mr. Dyer's statement, said: "I want to back up us as strongly as I can what Mr. Dyer says. We have had much loyal support from colored people throughout the country, but it has not been as great and united as it should be. We are facing a most critical situation on the Dyer Bill. Having the Senate Judiciary Committee it is for the Senate the bill must be passed, fore this session of the Senate adjournings. We must all work to have the anti-lynching bill brought to a vote before the November elections. We must keep up the wires hot until the bill is passed."

Schomburg, Grand Secretary, who composed the Committee on Resolutions; Copies of the resolutions have been awarded to Calvin Cochran, President of the Senate; Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, Republican Leader; and Samuel M.

NEW YORK, August 29—(Special) The crime of lynching is so atrocious, so subversive of the fundamental principles of government that the most thorough measures should be adopted to prevent it. Nothing has thus far been presented that is more effective than the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Many times during my primary campaign I, publicly declared my support of the Dyer Bill. I do not see how any citizen who believes in law and order may any other stand. Thus Albert J. Bridge, former United States Senator from Indiana, and sevent winner over Sedator Harry S. New in the Indiana primary for the Republican nomination for Senator, declared his stand on the ant-lynching bill in a letter made public by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people. The letter was written at the request of a number of prominent citizens of Indiana, who made the request because of the strenuous effort being made to secure a vote of the majority. The bill was passed by the House in a vote of 119, and finally passed on January 29 by the Indiana Committee, and is awaiting the floor of the House. The House committee will review the bill. 2635 Market St. St. Louis R. M. C. Funeral Director PHONES Bomont 3148 Central 3798-L FREE FUNERAL Night Calls A Automobiles F A.

B. platoon; Bister Sailer Hallec. reporter BOOK CHAT BOOK CHAT "UP STERAN" By Ludup Lewisenh. Published by Meers. Bohny; and Liveright. New York City. Price $4.00. Postage 10¢ cents. "Up Stream" is called by its author "An American Chronicle." It discloses not Negro, but Jewish, discrimination, relating the life of a young Jew, born in Germany but coming to this country when eight years of age. His family settled in Umarteck, South Carolina, where young Lewinson went to school and college and where he went to college, race prejudice. He was not included in a college; fraternity, and after graduation he was not permitted by the President, of its Board to teach in a private school where his scholarship had led to his appointment. But he thought little of this. He had taken his Americanism very seriously, believing that America gave equal opportunity to all. With this belief in his heart he went to New York to study at Columbia University, prepared himself to teach English literature. When he had finished the work for his doctorate he was assured by the professor under whom he had done the most of his work that he had better give up his plan. "A recent experience has shown me," the professor wrote "how terribly hard it is for a man of Jewish birth to get a good position. I had always suspected that it was a matter worth considering but I had not known how wide the gap between Jewish and non-Jewish we shall be glad to do anything we can for you. I cannot help feeling that the chances are going to be greatly against you." "I sat in my boarding house," Lewison says, "playing with the letter. I seemed to have no feeling at all for the moment. By the light of a sun beam that fell in I saw the picture of my parents on the mantlepiece was very dusty. I got up and wiped the dust off carefully. Gradually an erie, lost feeling came over me*** I ate nothing until evening when I went into a bakery and, catching sight of myself in a mirror, noted with dull objectiveness my dark hair, my melancholy eyes, my unmistakably Semilike nose. ...An outcourt. ...A sentence arose in my mind which I have remembered and used ever since. So long, as there is discrimination there is meant to him. It was not a matter of young man out of a jof. It was a spiritual thing. His psychical life was Arryn, through and through, and he was forbidden the entrance he desired into Arryn life. One's first reaction to the book is of amazement that such comparatively slight discrimination should mean so much. Lewisborn was welcomed at the University in Charleston, his ability recognized, his friends cordial. What if, when he looked in the glass and saw his dark eyes' he had also seen his bright eyes' that when he set foot in the University he was told to take his place with the freight and the dogs. Compared to the ambitious youth of Charleston, of whom the writer never speaks, his lot was Paradise. But one should not judge from this standard. It is the sensitivity of the spirit, not the extent of the persecution, that counts; and the man who wrote Up Stream' is a man great enough to be a extraordinary leisure, a noble spirit loving the land of this adoption but learning to hate it for its hypocrisy. It is worth while reading this story. I can think of no American writer, except DuBois, who used English with such power and yet with such rhythmic beauty. And DuBois has given us no such complete chronicle of his life. Ludwig Lewisohn is coming into his own, and his influence as an American must be kindly, in sympathy with those who struggle against discrimination. We need such people in the United States. BEAUTY TALK Associated Negro Press The relation of food and sleep, or rest, to the welfare of the body and subsequently their importance as to beauty, should be so well-known that I should never find occasion to mention it here, but judging by some of the siringling illustrations I see daily of people who are sick of what they are out, and why they should sleep, there is nothing left for me but to speak of eating and sleeping. Why do we eat? To build up the nerves, replenish the tissues, restore the richness of the blood, reinforce the fat padding, in short to keep the body fit, and consequently be beautiful. But the way some of us act, you'd never know why they thought they should eat. To them, a meal is an orgy, a time when you give over to the appetite, and if the appetite sees fit to call for a dozen chocolate covered doughnuts, finished, with powered nuts and eaten with clotted cream, they'd be happy. But the appetite called for them. Oh wow, unto your digestion and your complexion. Again, let me emphasize that simplely it to be enjoyed in all things, even the foods we eat. The girl who nibbles at a salad: or a sandwich of the thickness of the provoebal dribble, is the butt, of many attempts at wittencise, and yet, the worm to be said of her, is that she is economical or that she is no larger than the worm, and particularly stinging reflections. What we usually can not say is that she has a complexion "like a frost back" or that her skin would drive one to distraction. She does not indulge in midnight lunches where rich salads, and heavy cakes, and strong coffees, are to mention other chic things she particularly attends to the fine cuisine and familiar meals after the late hour here. She praises her ability to drink by drinking two glasses of cold water and eating a slice of cheese. She may even drink a glass of wine. wants her beauty. When her skin assumes the slightest yellow tinge, she renews her diet of fruit and arguments it with a wild appetite. She grows a raw peaches which are excellent for oily and yellow skin, and are appetizing and digestible. Oranges, lemons, and limes are unrivalled as complexion clearer, and adds to digestion. Grape fruit stimulates the digestive organs and is better than all the laxatives and cathartics, ever sent out by the A. D. S. Strawberries in season are fine for enticing the blood, for they contain a strong percentage of iron. When we hear folks say that eating strawberries always gives them a strong appetite, strawberries, advise them to have their blood looked after. They're in bad, not the berries. Green salads, such as lettuce and celery, with a dish of fresh olive oil, are the best things one could wish to give them that radiant glow of health and beauty. There are good for the nerves too, for a lot of this dark brown medicine with the bitter taste, prescribed by the most orthodox physician, is composed principally of celery extract for the nerves. The poor butt of all jokes, the onion, is excellent as a paelier for frayed nerves, and should be a welcome addition to all salads. But beware of rich boiled dressings. Let them remain in the far where you look best! But one started to speaking of food, I longing for a long list for hist. I have always had secret hinkerings to be a dietician, and I never lose an opportunity to tell you what to eat and what not. I'm a bound for calories and vitamine, too, so I'd never change the subject before I here you thoroughly. There's a sleep, the blessed alleviator of all lilies! With what after relaxation and gratitude Napoleon said, "What a delightful thing rest is! The bed has become a place of luxury to me. I would not exchange it for the thing I wanted. Beauty naps! Beauty naps! Mother used to catch us when we were so high, and placing us in the center of the old old-fashioned bed, bid us to take our beauty nap. Had I realized it's benefits I should have become a second sleeping Princess, to have awakened only when the Prince of Beauty had fully cared me. But then, I kicked and weped a little and rebelliously held up a pillow, and naughty things about my Mother and finally, I went to sleep through sheer rebellious exhaustion and spent a frightful hour or in bird dreams. I didn't know that there were right and wrong sides to my beauty nap just as there were to my little fritted aprons, which I must always slide off when I lay down. I didn't know that holding my body taut, instead of relaxing easily and obediently was what indirectly made my shimmer so smarring eyes and a weak nail. Neither did my sister know that curling up in a ball, with the cover tight over her head, was going to make her shoulders round, or that she was helping to wrinkle her skin when she crawled up on two pillows, and lay finely on her back to keep from mussing up her hair, of which she was justly proud. But when we got older and enjoyed the supervision of a runaway child, we were amazed that pillows are a measure to beauty, that heavy bedding is bad for the body, that the air must have excellent circulation through the room where one is sleeping and closed windows means bad sleeping. We learned that if you take worries to bed, you will not rest, and that no physician in the world will administer a sleeping position simply to make you forget your little impatient in a sleepy room. We worry about crying and you will sleep. And we learned to return to the habits of our baby days, and once we were in bed to turn over on our abdomen, straighten our arms out by our side, and we serenely to sleep, knowing that we are aiding our beauty materially by forcing back our shoulders and our chest, in this comfortable position. And then we clean. Why it is all so easy when one knows how to apply our rest, broken, over-filled, and obviously our beauty and scaffold application of pads, and drapes and cosmetics, when we could so easily be in the class of the Nile Queen Beauty. Associated Negro Press DOGS, HURSES, AND MEN, THE WRITE HOUSE, PLEADS FOR THE DOGS AND HELPS THE HORSES By William Plekens Associated Negro Press We are here that letter was sent from the White House pleading that an old faithful dog should be cared for—and we read with the necessary emotions about Mrs. Warren G. Harding's sending $100 to the master of an old horse, that the dumb animal might not suffer. The horse is 51 years old, and had served his master well. Now, an old colored man was lynched in Georgia. He was 70-old years old. He had more than twenty years faithful service on the horse and infirm years than that on the dog, the governor of Georgia, that in "infirmature" Nerio. This old man was lynched—horror killed—not for crime, but for an attempted act of benevolence, trying to protect two young girls from rape. Surely this old two-legged animal of the human kind should have escaped some sentiment. But not one word did we ever see in print from Mr. Harding of Mr. Harding about this great crime. Even himself, the two-legged bird last year—even this year too, and in one recent year it was burned. Now if this only just had been fourteen dogs murdered in the city squares, white the dear Little children, and the tender women looked on like kaited and cloaked and grieved that it had only been Dogs. The blame White House would have done more than write letters; it would have abandoned legislation and punishment. Every procedure in the law had have been requested by government prosecution to impose the great penalty to hit him. More than three dozen men and women, like the dogs, had been arrested in the city. BATOUALA Living Age: "A tale so strange, so powerful, so unusual, that there is small difficulty in seeing why the ten members of the Academic Goncourt awarded it their prize." George U. Cloud in St. Louis Argus: "There arises occasionally an ephealic literary work, and Rene Maran, full-blooded African Negro, has given the world a piece of literature which will be read 500 years from now." Indiana Evening Sun: "The force, the tremendous force and power of its simplicity, hammers upon one's mind like the heat of the tomato which sounds throughout the text, and one realizes where its gains lies." The SANDMAN STORY ONE day before the flowers had bloomed or the buds come out the little Leaflets began to complain to the Trees where they lived that they never had any fun; that no one ever noticed them, either; for all the Blossoms and Fruit took the attention from them. "We never have a party or anything," sighed the Leaflets, "and no one cares anything about us. But if it were not for us I am sure the Trees By and By the Moon Came Up. would look queer and the Fruit of Blossoms would not be half as beautiful. In vain did the Trees tell them that they were beautiful, and that every one loved it to look at their shining green dresses, but still the little Leaflets grumbled and fussed, and at last all the trees talked it over one night, and it was decided that the Leaflets should have a thence all by themselves, before the Blossoms or the Fruit cane. As all the festivals and parties take place on moonlight nights, the Trees waited until the moon was shining full and bright, and then they told the Leaflets about the dance. were articles of interstate trade, that that the gasoline had been originally transported from Oklahoma to Mississippi, and that "thereafter" the United States Congress and the power of the Executive may be constitutionally invoked to protect the Dogs. And if you want to rate the preacher, you can rate the grower, just let the mobs bring out a few mischievous and unruly horses into the public squares and torture and burn them. But human beings, little black boys of fifteen—that's another matter. Even white men now may be lynched wholesale, as at Herrin, and nothing is done about it. Oh yes, the President did complain that the few foreigners in the lot, and that the mobs will have to be prepared if it takes the whole army and navy to do it. And, mark you! We do not think that Mrs. Hardling or Mr. Hardling add one word in defense of the four footed animals and the foreigners that ought not to be included them to include the two-footed species known as homines sapientes, and also the native breeds and the citizens. Twenty-Two Cases of Blindness Reported From The Sense, Cause In The United States NEW IORK. Aug. 30—Figures gathered by the National Committee for the Prevention of Blindness in the Russell Sage Foundation Building, that during the first half of 1922 woodpecker killed 130 deaths and 22 cases of blindness. "There diademe do not, however, begin to measure the total loss of life or sight through the drinking of boating, your paltry contempt the wood pleckol." said Mrs. Winston Hathaway, secretary of the committee today. Many relatives and friends of Hathaway try to ensure the total loss of life and the safety of the location of their smaller Trees and paltry contempt of the wood pleckol. All the little Breezes were invited to help with the dancing, and even Brish Wind was asked to come around for a while. The Soft Sighing Winds were asked to furnish the music for the Trees wanted the Leaflets to have a wonderful dance. When the little Leaflets heard they were to have a dance they could not keep stiff, and long before the dance began they were swaying and fluttering about, practicing all the fancy steps they could think of for the wonderful dance. By and by the Moon came up and the dance began. The Little Breezes were their partners, and they enjoyed the frolic as well as the Leafets. Suddenly some of them discovered their shadows on the ground, and they danced faster than ever. In fact, old Mr. Moon grew tired and sleepy and went to bed, and still the dance went on, our pow they had found something that aused them the Leaflets would not stop. They tired out the Little Breezes and they went home; and not until then did the Leaflets stop dancing. It was a long time ago that the Leaflets held their first dance, but ever since they are always calling the Little Breezes or the Brick Breeze to come and dance with them. Often, when all the rest of the world seems quiet, if you look at the young Leaflets you will no doubt see some of them, at least, swaying and swinging, trying new steps and watching the shadows they make on the ground. Never since that night long ago have the Trees been able to keep the Leaflets from dancing; but, as they never fuss or complain, the Trees do not mind.

(© 1922, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) half of the 130 fatal cases brought to the attention of the National Committee for the Prevention of Disease during the first six months of this year were in New York. Forty-five fatalities were reported in New York, twenty-eight in New Jersey and fifteen in Pennsylvania. Five deaths were reported in Texas and four each in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Ohio and New York. In the first twelve days of this year 103 of the 130 deaths were reported. "Only three or four deaths per year from wood alcohol poisoning were reported in New York State prior to 1918," said Mrs. Hathaway, "while more than eight deaths per year were reported in the "sixth" within the last three years. In Pennsylvania wood alcohol killed sixty-one persons last year." PRES. KING FAVORED FOR RE-ELECTION IN LIBERIA MONROVIA, Liberia, Aug. 30—"The questions comes once more! Is There No Price For Loyalty? The answer in 1919 was yes and which resulted in the unanimous election of Mr. King, as President of the Liberian Nation. Now then we are placed in a position to state some of the reasons why President King should be supported for a Second Term. In this true Patriotic Honor, Loyalty, Faithfulness, and Credibility to the Liberian people," says the Agricultural World in an editorial estimate of President King recently, Continuing the editorial may? "President King having carried in to effort the wishes of Liberia in every respect is entitled to another—term. And in view of that fact on the 8th instant at the residence of the Local Chairman, Mr. Sarria, the following motion was offered: "That a vote of Confidence be held for His Royalty President King and that peace be brought through all of our countries to be satisfied by a successful Liberia war was constituted against."

CONVENTION WAS LARGELY ATTENDED The Berean Sunday School Convention opened its 42nd Annual Session, August 23, 1922, at the, First Baptist, Church, Clayton; Mo. Rev. W. L. Rhodus, pastor. Forty-five minutes were spent in song service conducted by Sister B. F. Woods of the Tabernacle Sunday School, afterwhich, the President opened the Convention for business. Several committees were appointed. The Welcome Address was extended by Bro. Paul Dixon. Response by Miss McDonald of Pilgrim Rest. It was most beautifully extended in poetry. The main features of the day were the reports coming from the Corresponding Secretary and Treasurer. Both showed a growth in the work during the past year. Never in the history of the Convention have we had a more wholesome address extended than the one given by the President, Mrs. L. Leita Custon. Co-operation was the keynote of the thoughts advanced. Space will not allow us to give her subject in detail but a motion was made to have the subject printed in book form so that others may be benefited by reading it. Two important features on the program were the Children's Hour, conducted by Sister Isabelle Taylor and the Anniversary Program conducted by Sister G. A. Perry. After the latter, everyone came forward and gave $42 as an Anniversary gift. We were honored with an address by Dr. J. Francis Robinson. Field Secretary of the Sunday School Publishing Board of Nashville Teen. There were several visitors from Corresponding Bodies. During the evening session we were favored with an address by Prof. C. R. Richardson, newly elected President of Western College. We closed Sunday with a Model Sunday School conducted by Mrs. C. E. Alexander, Mrs. Belle F. Woods, teacher of the Deborah Class, raised the largest collection and received the banner. The attendance was very large, during the entire session. Collection was $29,400. All officers were reelected by acclamation, except the chairman. Miss Ada McField was elected on account of the absence of Mrs. M. C. Jordan. This convention will always carry a warm memory in their hearts for First Baptist Church, Clayton, Mo., and its pastor for their hospitality. Mrs. L. Leatn Custon, was reelected president, and Mrs. M. E. Scarbrough reckoning secretary MT. OLIVE BAPTIST Sunday School at 9:30 a.m. M. Scripture reading by the pastor. Sermon at 11 a.m. Bajpitsa.

W. where she can continue to give comfort, protection and shelter to our girls. CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH Pastor Stevens is able to use chitches. We are expecting to so him at the church in a short while. Rev S. J. Branch preached a splendid sermon last Sunday morning on "Love," the one attribute so much needed throughout the universe. Rev. McCutchen, Secretary of Church Extension Board of the National Baptist Convention, gave a wonderful message last Sunday night on, "Progress of Christianity." We were sorry when he ceased preaching. A large number attended Communion services, which were very impressive. Sisters Fannie M. Oliver and Maud Kennedy were present Sunday morning and made talks in interest of the Y. W. C. A. LANE TABERNACLE C. M. E. A scene of unusual beauty was witnessed at Lane Tahercain-last Sunday morning when hundreds of members and friends filled all available space in both auditoriums to hear the fourth quarterly message of presiding elder, William (Shocking Bill) Crane. The tense throng came expecting a great sermon, and Dr. Crane certainly gratified their expectations. Presiding Elder Crane has preached several pretty sermons in Lane Tahercain but the message, last Sunday morning can be placed at the head of the list. (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER. D. D.

GOLDEN TEXT—Our God will fight for us—Neh. 4:20. REFERENCE MATERIAL—Neh. 2.9-2; 1 Cor. 2.9-1. PRIMARY TOPIC—How God helped Ne- heriah Build a Wall. JUNIOR TOPIC—How a City Wall Was Rebuilt. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC - Praxing, Watching, Working TALKING, WATCHING, WORKING YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIO -Success Through Leadership and Cooperation. Having secured a leave of absence from the Persian court, and credentials from the king, Nehemiah journeyed to Jerusalem. After resting three days without disclosing his purpose to any one, he made a survey of the walls by night. Having thus obtained first-hand information he called the representatives of the Jews to together and said, "Let us build the walls of Jerusalem." He then made known the hand of providence in bringing him to Jerusalem with the authority to rebuild its walls. He thus showed great wisdom in finding out for himself the real conditions and what work would be required to restore the walls. The one who is qualified to lead in a great undertaking is the one who has mastered the situation and is thus able to remove objections and show how the work can be done. 1. Preparation for the Building (ch. 3). The division of labor in this project shows Nehemiah's administrative ability. A wise distribution of labor makes difficult tasks easy. Note some outstanding features of this great work. 1. Stress Laid Upon Indifference (3:5) In. administrative tasks it is just that unfaithfulness should be pointed out. Such action will be a warping to some and an encouragement to others by showing the integrity of the director. 2. Help Rendered by the Women (3:12). Perhaps Shalimah had no sons to nil him. It is a fine ting for women to be able to take hold even in building a wall when there are no men to do it. That's word carefully notes such extraordinary acts. 3. Stress Laid Upon Earnestness of Some (3:20). If one knows that his faithfulness will be recognized he will earnestly pursue his tasks. 4. Every One Built Over Against His Own House (3:10, 23, 28). Man's chief concern is for his family. No incentive to exertion is quite so strong as that which concerns his own family. 5. Certain Guilds of Men Undertook Certain Work (ch. 3:8, 31, 32). Wise adulabstruction sometimes calls for such alignment of efforts. Men of the same class and craft will usually work better together. 11. Hindrances Encountered (4:1-6, 14). 1. Scouting of Sanballot and Tobiah (4:1:6; cf. 2:19:20). The opposers of God's servants usually begin by hurling at them shafts of ridicule. They called the Jews but a feeble folk and asserted that the tread of a prowling fox would break down their stone wall. 2. Conspiracy of a Sudden Attack (4:7:9). When the enemy saw that the work was actually succeeding they changed from ridicule to an attempt to throw the workmen into a panic and thus blinder the work. When the enemy cannot succeed by scoffling then he resorts to intimidation. 3. Conspiracy With the Jews (4:10:23). They sought by means of the Jews from the outside to discourage their brethren by showing that the task was hopeless and that at any time they were subject to a sudden and secret attack. 4. Greed and Oppression of the Rulers (5:1-13). The Jews of that day, like the profiteers in the recent World war, took advantage of the poor and oppressed them so that they mortgaged their land and sold their daughters into slavery. Nehemiah bodily rebuked them for their crimes and ordered a restoration to be made, exacting an oath of them, that they would fulfill their promises. 5. Scheme to Take Nehemiah's Life (6:1-14). When Sanbailat and Tobiah failed in every other way they sought by craft to get Nehemiah away that they might kill him. 111. The Wall Completed (6:15-7:4). So energetically did they pursue their tasks in fifty-two days the wall was completed. When the enemies heard that in spite of all their schemes the work was actually completed, they were cast down, for they perceived that the work was of God. Find the Rock Beneath.

According to the scientific view, there is something in musk, something in the nose, something in the throat, and the lilie, something in every substance which produces smell either agreeable or offensive, that is able so to affect the hairs and cells of the olfactory machinery of the nose as to set their connecting nerves in vibration; and the rate of this vibration of the wonderful little nerve centersurtles for every different substance. Orchids in British Isles Glasgow, with 12,000 orchids in four of its public gardens, probably takes the lead among British municipalities. Kew gardens has 1,000 or more different orchids in cultivation, but 10 or 20 times that number are represented in a dry shade, stored and classified in the Kew herbarium. Apart from public gardens, orchid growing in the past has been considered the special privilege or the rich. Fault of Pacific Ocean As far as the extent of the Pacific goes, its luminosity is a drawback to its commerce. If it were half as wide it would carry a much heavier tonnage. If its shores were half as far apart the nations that face its great expense would be more neighborly and would trade more extensively among themselves. Freights would be lower and passenger fares would cost less.

Preston News Service NEW YORK CITY, 29 - The wily Jack Kearns, Jack Demempsey's manager, has just returned from an extended trip to different sections trying to find a big-money match for the Champion without success. When asked about the proposed Willis Demempsey bout he replied: "We're signed and ready. Where are the promoters?"

Friends of Dempsey claim that Witts and Dempsey should never be allowed to fight in this country. Such a maten would run the sport. Commenting on Wills as a fighter, Jim Jabb, writing in the *Pittsburgh Press*, under the caption of "Fleite Fobiles" says, "Not long ago, the writer, in telling of Harry Wills' ring prowess, hinted that the herculean black was disposed to be a rough mixer, also defiant to referees. Wills fight himself free, turns tricks, etc., and pays no attention to the judge of er. It was declared that if Dempsey and the big black ever meet, if would be well and wise for the showmen to hipe a giant referee, a fellow with grit and gumption, fearless to the limit. Facing Fred Fulton the New Orleans pugilist pulled off gags that should have been forbidden by the referee. Here is an excerpt from an account of Wills' easy-money bout with Blair Jackson at Newark, N. J. last week: "Fights fans agreed that Wills fought unfairly. He hooked one hand behind Jackson's head and failed his greggy foe with his free fist. Wills paid no heed to four warnings from Referee McCoy. Sounds natural to people who have watched the black battler in real action." "I imagine a muss, sure to be started, in case Wills was mixing in with Dempsey and set in motion of his duels pit tactics. There would be a riot for fair and, of course, the good old bating game, not to the gainer by that disorder." Admirers of Wills claim that he is one of the fairest fighters ever seen in the ring, and extremely so when his opponent is white, for he is mindful of the ever presence of your predator which he action to encounter with or GRAND OPENING--HILL'S MARKET SATURDAY, SEPT. 2 1010 SARAH ST.
