Afternoon Session.

The convention took a recess for din- ner.
 In the afternoon session the features were the annual address of President Morris and the report of the foreign mis- sion board made by L. G. Jordan. Dr. Morris said in part:
 We are making progress toward bringing together our Baptist forces of the world. Just as there is one God. one Christ and one Spirit. so will be our hopes, our fears and our aims. The whole world is akin and the duty of establishing the universal brotherhood of man will come first upon the Baptists, who have no creed but the Bible and no head but Christ who gave out through his apostles that in the kingdom of grace, there is neither Jew nor Creek. there is neither bond for free, there is neither male nor female, but all one in Christ Jesus. Perhaps no class of christians are more ready to enter into a unification with all the Baptist forces than the negro Baptists."
 Dr. John H. Frank, one of the ablest ministers of the Baptist church and pas tor of the Fifth street Baptist church. Louisville, introduced Dr. Jordan. Dr. Frank has been chairman of the foreign mission board for a number of years and is well posted on it's work. In his ad- dress many phases of the work was brought before the convention. The Rev L.
