tell, for on this occasion was started
a plan to buy a Day Home.
Words Of praise Of the lovely spir
tied woman who conceived this enter
tainment and carried it out so success
fully for the benefit Of the Home at a
time of its greatest need cannot be
too many or too high. There is no
greater Joy on earth to bring CON-
Fort and sunshine to an unfortunate
little one. This is what Mrs. Taylor
has done.
Every one who so graciously aided
Mrs. Taylor in any way in making a
succe' g of the entertainment has the
incere thanks of Mrs. Taylor, every
member Of the club, as well as of the
little children of the Home. Tho use

MISSIONARY UNION.

The Missionary and Educational
Union held their fourth Quarterly
Meeting at the Fifteenth Avenue
Church Friday, December 10. Quite
an interest was manifested in the
work of the Union. Money collected
for missions and education, $500. The
meeting adjourned to meet the
first Friday in January at Mount
Olive Baptist Church for the election
of officers for the ensuing year. We
are thankful for the interest manifest
ed by some of the District Vice Presi'
dent. We have organized three new
societies in the past month in the fol
lowing churches: Mt. Zion, Mt. Gilead
and First Street Baptist. We hope
other doors will be opened for the
women who are anxious to work to do
something; we appeal to the pastors
to help us.
Sunday, December 8, at the appoint
ed hour the Union held it's rally for
Roger Williams University at the
New Building. Many Of the pastors
we're called away at another important
gathering, but we had the following
brethren present, who helped and en-
couraged us very much: Revs Page,
Keil, Kenny, Haynes, the financial
agent for Roger Williams, also Presi-
dent of our State Convention. We were
also highly favored by having Presi-
dent.elect of the University, Prof
Johnson. present. He gave a stirring
address which inspired our hearts
greotly and made us feel that it is
good to be here. First Baptist
Church choir rendered excellent mu-
sc. Notwithstanding the inclen,ency
Of the weather. the occasion was a
success and $4,000 contributed for the
work.
The following churches and mis-
sionary societies and friends were the
donors: Sylvan Street Baptist
Church Missionary Society, $11O5;
Third Avenue, North Missionary So
ciety, S5.5S; Zion Baptist Church,
$500; First Baptist ChuEch Mis-

form from the pens and the presses OF
Negro Baptists.
And sir, in my feeble financial
youth, /, their representative, leaned
upon you for support, which you so
readily gave. AS you are slightly on
the decline, and are liable to grow
more feeble as time passes, We desire
that you shall take this cane aud lean
upon it for physical support, as I, the
representative of this organization,
leaned upon you for moral and inan-
cial support"
After the presentation speech by DR..
Boyd, Rev. DR., J. M. Frost arose-suT-
prised, bewildered and amazed, as he
did not know, until DR.. Boyd pulled
the beautiful ebony cane from the
bookcase above his head, what was
really taking place. There was moth
ing in the first part of the speech that
would intimate what would occur; and
lot until the cane was really being
presented did he realize that he was
the honoree OF the occasion. Notwith-
standing he had been startled and con-
fused by this well-laid surprise, he raj
lied and his speech was a master
piece. He began it by confessing that
he did not know what to say, which
proved just to the reverse. He did
know what to say, and he said ID with
the earnestness of purpose. and with
that true ring of sincerity that has
ever been characteristic of him to-
wards this institution and its man
agement. We delivered the most time
ly, the most appropriate and the most
instructive response in accepting the
cane that has ever been heard in these
six years that the institution has been
conducting these exercises.
A beautiful part of his speech was
that while the work Of the institution
and its great progress was due to the
management of DR.. Boyd, that its Sue
cess now and in the future depended
first upon the support by his constitu
ents; second, upon each employee per
forming his or her duty. In othel
words, that the making Of history nov
meant the doing of the thing well tina
you are appointed to do, and tina
each employee was as responsible foI
the future success of the institution b.
the performance Of his or her dut!
correctly as was Dr.. Boyd. He close(
by saying what we do now in the min
or positions we hold, is just what W.
will do in the future, should we b.
promoted Or find other employment.
The closing remarks were made b!
DR.. Boyd, in which he assured DR.
Frost that he had put forth every eli
fort to keep any inkling of what would
take place from reaching him-no
even the Chairman of che Board or tn,
Editorial Secretary, Rev. Ellington
knew what had been contemplated.

Oklahoma City Surprised Narrow.
Minded New Yorker.

Oklahoma amazes an fastener. The
wide, asphalted streets, the plate glass
fronts of department stores, the clean
sidewalks, the welldressed, unhurried
shoppers, the finish, the metropolitan
air you find in Oklahoma City, for ex-
ample, seem marvels to find in a ter
ritory only II years old. But do not
say so.
A New Yorker who went there on
business complained that fate was
thrusting him into wilderness, and
his Oklahoma associates could not re-
assure him. But coming down to
breakfast the first morning, at his
hotel in Oklahoma City, he stared
around in wonder as he entered the
dining-room.
"This," he exclaimed, "this is Okla

Cure by Cuticura.

"My baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face and
feet. Her feet seemed to irritate her
most, especially nights. They would
cause her to be broken in her rest, and
sometimes she would cry until she was
tired out. I had heard of so many
cures by the Cuticura Remedies that
1 thought I would give them trial.
The improvement was noticeable in a
few hours, and before had used one
box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet
were well and have never troubled her
since. l also used it to remove what
is known as cradle cap from her
head, and it worked like charm, as It

same time. Mrs. Hattie Currier,
