One year ago the Rev. H. w. Por-
ter and family arrived in Des Moines
to take charge of the Union Congrega-
tional church, subject to the call of
the people, Rev. Porter was born in
the historical town of Marietta, Ga,
at the foot of the Kennesaw noun
tain, and was educated at Atlanta uni
versity. Atlanta, Ga, and at Talla-
dega college, Talladega, Ala, two of
the institutions noted for the training
Of young men and women for the
duties OF life; in short, to be men
and women.
Rev. Porter is mechanic, and with
his own efforts working during vaca-
tons completed his education. He
tas pastored at Marion, Ala, and
Knoxville, Tenn, and for two years
was chaplain and teacher at the
Haines Institute, Augusta, Ga.
His stay with the Union Congrega-
tional church as pastor can only be
shown in the work which has been
accomplished under his administra-
ton. The membership has more than
doubled itself and all departments OF
the work have been active.
The Sunday school has an average
attendance of forty-five and an active
corps of teachers under the efficient
leadership OF Supt. J. l.. Thompson.
The Mems League, with Mr.. Gus Wat
kins as president, Is one of the most
important features of the work, and
it has done more to unite the men
OF the city in brotherly love and
point them to the duties of real citi-
zenship than any organization of the

THE NEGRO AND HIS GOD.
(By Sylvanus Browne.)

(By Sylvanus Browne.)
If we as race. expect to gain,
In the business world our place at
tain;
We must travel the road our forepar-
ents trod,
The Negro must closer get to God.
If we as race expect to stand
On equal terms in this freedom land,
l wish to state and it may seem odd,
The Negro must closer get to God.
Ii we expect man burning to cease,
That reminds US of cannibal feast;
To think tits easy-to do It's hard,
The Negro must closer get to God.
II we as race would like to see
The Negroes dwell in unity,
The only way this problem to solve
The Negro must closer get to God.
If we would have our girls t. be,
The highest type of purity,
Give them the Bible-take from the
card;
And entreat them to closer get to
Cod
If we would save our boys from ruin
And honest living earn,
Keep them from the drunkard's ward;
Teach them to closer get to God.
1t has been said by man of old,
Who were righteous-men " no loved
the Lord,
Whose remains doth rest beneath the
sod;
Ethiopia should stretch forth her
hand to God.
II we expect to make Heaven ours,
Walk the golden streets and Para
disc roam,
We must travel the road that Jesus
trod;
We must get nearer, near, yes closer
to God. ".
