The Baptist Building Fund.

Brethren, what is being done
for the church fund?
This work of raising means tor
church extension, and to help poor
congregations to erect them COM
tortable houses of worship in
which to meet, is of the most vital
importance. and should not be ie
nored for one moment. Yea,
more, if the pastors of our churches
will bring the matter properly be-
fore their people and urge upon
the Importance of the work, there
will be but little hesitancy upon
the part of the active members of
the churches in contributing to
this fund. With a little effort.
brethren, much can be done in
that direction. Just think, we
boast of having 10000 Baptists
within this state. This being ac-
cepted as fact, what could be
done for the church extension
fund? II each member would paw
the small sum of ten cents per an
mum, we would have an annual in
come of 81, 900, and no one would
feel the strain. But we can do
more than that; with little effort
we ought to raise at least 25 cents
per member or a general average
OF that amount per year. And
then we have the creditable sum
of So, 500, and no one is hurt.
Brethren, the time has come for
us to wake up and learn to help
ourselves little. We have been
riding too long upon the benevo-
lence OF others who have tried to
lead us out of the darkness. and
now 1t is time for us to walk awhile.
If we do not awake and take hold
of the work and do something for
those who have always
been ready to help us will leave us
alone. But no. let us do for our
selves while others are willing to
help, and success will follow as a
necessary consequence

Catfish Christianity.

One who is born with weak eyes,
who stumbles continuously, who
complains of all things and every
body and never carries handker-
chief to wipe the tears of tribula-
ticn from any ones brow; one who
complains of the fit Of the pastors 5
clothes, and delights to dictate
how others should do. That per
son is stranger at the door
Many are called, but few are cho-
sen. A ragged christian is always
seeking new supplies at the cost
of some one else. Pious, but not
sincere, grave, but not virtuous,
boisterous but not brave, he will
attempt to walk by sight and not
by faith. He must see the victo-
ry and conquest afar through the
telescope of pleasure. At times
he is as audacIous as Lucifer, as
treacherous as Judas, and as under
mining as Haman. Chronic in

Hindrances to Baptist Success

One OF the greatest drawbacks
TO Baptlsts within our ranks is
their failure to give honor to
whom honor is due, or to recog-
nlze the true worth of our men
who have the moral and intellect
ual ability to lead the denomina-
tlon to victory.
All other denominations give
some prominence to their men
VINO possess the characteristics of
leadership; and they delight in
placing them in positions where
they can be felt. But, with the
majority of Negro Baptists it is
merely matter of choice, and no
attention IS given to qualification.
1t the majority want man at the
head they propose to place him
there, regardless to that of his
moral or intellectual fitness for the
position. Hence we often find
unworthy men at the head of af-
fairs; and those who are compe-
tent to lead are pushed aside, and
no privilege to make themselves
felt in the denomination is offered
them.
Men who have the work of the
denomination at heart and who
are worthy representatives bv
reason of their ability and zeal for
the cause, do not have to struggle
for place in the front ranks in
other than Baptist Churches.
They are sought for and the peo-
pie take hold of them and place
them there, because they know
that the success of the cause de-
mandS 1t.
But among our people, to their
shame be it said, if a worthy man
comes to the front, he has not
only to weed his own row, without
having SO much as the sympathy
of his fellows, but he must get
there, by stemming the tide Of op-
position that he will inevitably
meet within his own ranks.
The Baptists will never succeed
with all their numerical strength,
until they learn to respect and
sustain their men who have made
themselves worthy to encounter
The peril of leadership. Remem-
Der Baptist leaders are not all ig-
lorant, worthless persons; but
2ontrariwise, we have within our
-anks men who are the equal of
my other of whatever sect or de-
nomination. But the reason they
ire not known more extensively,
S because they have been ignored
md scorned within the ranks of
our denomination. This state of
ffairs, brethren, should not be al
owed to exist. We should encour
ge and sustain our worthy men. !
And if one proves himself unwor-
by Of the confidence reposed in
i'm, have the boldness to say to l
hat man, "You are unworthy, and |
therefore, you cannot lead" Let S
i'm step down and out, and place 1
worthy man in his stead. Three
hings are essential to true leader
hip: First, religion, that produces :
rue morality; secondly, intellect
al ability; and thirdly, zeal for
ne cause that will lead to sacri- t
&C, and actuate perseverance. t
hose are the traits of a worthy a
eader.
