Virginia Negroes Shut Out.

Yet a prominent officer OF the asSocla-
ton informs me that the colored dele
gates from Virginia, regularly appointed
and recognized by the convention. after
making formal application were also
shut out from this parade, designed to be
representative of the worldwide Sunday
school enterprise.
Think of it, said President Thirkield.
Here in a great Christian convention
and in purely public religious and civic
demonstration. where not even the SEM
blance of social relation appears, Chris
tan ministers and laymen engaged in
this great worldwide Sunday school
movement are cut out and thrust aside
because they are identified with the negro
race in America and stand identified with
that race in the District Of Columbia.
II deplore this public controversy That
mars the peace of this conventino, and
my name has been unexpectedly thrust
into II In an incidental way But just as
q missionary to the darker skinned races
OF foreign lands might feel that the
onward movement of Christ's Kingdom
was hindered. if delegates from those
peoples were shut. out by the mere acct
dent of color. so it appears to one who
at the call of the Master has given him.

tan convention as this.
Issue Deplored by Many.
81 am sure that in the name of the
Christian Church, in the name of human
ity, in the name of this worlds Christian
convention. representing and illustrating
the progress of Christianity among all the
races of the world. many deplore the fact
that the plea of the local colored minis
tiers and Sunday school workers that they
be given place in this procession repre-
senting the religious organizations and
forces of the world was denied them. If
this problem of the races is to be solved
in peace. as ! believe it will be, and to
this end / willingly give my life. il must
be through the united efforts of the
moral and religious elements of both
races.
I'm the city of Atlanta, as the outcome
OF the riot. a cathedral of cooperation
has been formed. in which white and COL
ored ministers now meet at stated periods
for mutual prayer and consultation and
cooperation. for the religious betterment
and the civil and moral uplift of all the
people. This convention should i'm the
same manner illustrate TO all the world
the fact that the cross of Christ Is broad
enough to shelter and redeem all peoples
and also enforce the doctrine of the faith
erhood of God and the essential brother
hood of man. which is to make the con-
quest of this whole world for Christ pos
sible.

charge being made by his opponents that
he is not a bona fide candidate. He says.
Having worked long time in the

DR.. Thirkield's Plea.

Representatives from the nations of
the world are gathered here at the capital
of the greatest republic on EARTH" DR..
Thirkield said, Ito attend the convention
Of the Worlds Sunday School Association.
Delegates from Europe, Asia. Africa and
the Islands of the sea are present. They
are welcomed by thousands of delegates
from all American churches
The report of the chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee says: Christian unity
has been emphasized in a wonderful way
in these conventions. In Rome twenty
seven countries and fifty-three religious
denominations. without a note of diScOrd
came together
We not divided
All one body We ="
The theme of this Washington con-
vention is the evangelization of the
world in this generation. The world
is here.
The native Bishop of Japan. with
his plea for his dark skinned brethren,
is welcomed. The Bishop of Africa
representing the uncounted millions of
the dark continent. is here with his
plea for the redemption of the brother
in black.
And 1t is my conviction that if
Africa is to be redeemed it must be
largely through the educated, conse-
Grated American negro, redeemed and
equipped through the Sunday school,
the church and the college.
The great leader from Korea pleads
for the darker-hued millions of that
nation who are here represented.
The convention in character is ecu
menical. 1t is missionary in purpose
and spirit Its plea is that all races
and peoples of the world shall be won
to Christ.
