From AtchiSon.
AtchiSon, Kar

Dear Editor.
1t affords me great
pleasure in sending you a few
gleanlngs from the little city on
the river. The State Convention
OF the Baptist churches convened
here from the 18th to the Goth.
A number of friends and strangers
were present from different parts
of the state, and a general inter
esting and good time was enioyed
by all, Some of the best talented
ladies and gentlemen of the states
OF Kansas and Missouri were with
us.
One of the grandest celebra-
tons ever known in Atchison was
that OF the new organization. The
True Eleven. The schools were
dismissed for the occasion and a
long procession of Afro Ameri-
cans mounted. in wagons and on
foot, headed by the Twilight band
marched to the beautiful Goodhue
park, where the day was spent in
teastlng, speaking, swinging, etc.
All brought baskets and dinner
was free to all. This order was
organized for the express purpose
OF advancing and upbullding the
Negro, supporting all race institu-
tons, and showing our race pride.
Every person with an ounce of
Negro blood in his veins should
oin the order. 1t was organized
n July and is now the largest coll
bred organization IN the city.
Rev J. w. Wilson has started
series of meetings and We sincere
y hope for great success.
The attendance in the public
schools is not so large this year as
usual. Parents should send their
children to school and at least
1--WE them an education If you can
i've them nothing else. There

The Baptist headlight., 1893-10-01

important duties which should be
borne in mind, there are MANY
other duties which should not be
neglected. Duty is a principle,
and exhibits itself in conduct and
acts.
Among the many duties which
are SO neglected, and one that is
very much SO, is the duty of par
ents to the Sunday-school." 1t is
one which parents owe. One rea-
son why take this, is because
they have been owing it so long,
and not taking any interest in it,
whatever, and we, feeling such a
loss by their negligence, demand
payment. This is a duty that is
due every Sabbath and YOU need
only to sacrifice little time and
sleep to pay it. 1t is such a small
thing that they do not notice it.
Every other duty they seek to full
I'll, every other appointment to
meet, but this duty they consider
almost as nothing. All parents
should consider it their indispens-
able duty to get up early, and be
ready with their children for sun
day school at the proper time.
They should have the lesson thor
oughly prepared. so that when the
time came for reading the lesson,
the scholars would not have to
spell every word before pronounc-
ing.it.
| have asked some parents why
they do not attend sunday school.
They say they can't read. 1t does
not make any difference if you /
>an't. Come, sit and listen. You ,
,annot imagine what great advan t
age to the sunday-school it would
'e tor you to help in preserving {
'rder. If you'd come with your
hildren, whether you could read f
II not, you could keep order. 1t +
Iould cause your child to behave ?
luch better, if it saw you there, /
nat is, if you tried to teach it =
hat was right. Your presence O
lere would help your child out o
many respects. 1t would learn \
much more, because, knowing u
lat you were there it would be \
lore attentive to what its teacher i
as saying Otherwise it would in
: in all kinds of mischief that ol
ould be found. 1t IS the parents
ult why we have SO much tardi- sc
SIS. They do not get their chill ~
en- ready in time. If they do,
c children stop to play or have sc
long conversation with some one u
hen if they would get ready and =;
me with them all this would be q
oided. If parents would be ar
ore prompt at sabbath-school, I'd
c children would be more anx-
rs to attend, because papa and n
ANNA do so and whatever papa ID
mamma does they think Is right
t can never have what | call III
Cd sunday schooltil the parents -, -
t interested n the work. When
~ become interested so will the n
lid. The teachers may talk all oa
~ wish, but unless the scholar
interested in the conversation,
ose words are wasted. Why
ut parents be just as interested lh'
out the welfare OF their children N
school as in day school?
the child can't get a problem. =,
, father or mother will work -.
er it as hard as If they were to
