PULPITS AND PEWS

SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. J.. Milton Waldron, Pastor, 1884
v Street, N. w.; w. II. Scott, Church
Editor, 1903 Pierce Place, N. w.
The anniversary exercises of the
week were continued on Wednesday
night, October 26, which was known
as sister churches night. Ten min
listers, representing their respective
churches, were in and about the pull
pit, many of whom had something
to say encouragingly to the church.
1t was the first time that such a night
had been set apart, and it was rare
treat.
On Thursday night we had the
pleasure of listening to an excellent
sermon by Rev. ]. A. Brown, the
new pastor of St. Johns Baptist
Church, Arlington, Va. Though the
fame of Rev. Brown as pulpit ora
tor and a good pastor had reached
us, we were nevertheless agreeably
surprised. Miss Maria Morgan, the
daughter Of one Of the founders,
read brief but interesting history
of the first 81 years, and Mr.. VIM.
H. Henderson of the last 10 years
life of the church. The audience lis
tened with intense interest and pleas
ure at the many facts and incidents
which were related for the first time
to most of those present.
The crowning event of the good
things of the week came on Friday
night, October 28, when a large and
appreciative audience listened to
one of the finest lectures delivered
in this city for long time. DR.. Gil
bert's subject, christianity, the So
luton of Race Problem" is one of
the foremost questions of the age,
and he has given it deep thought and
study. 1t was indeed a gem, and
those who had the pleasure of hear
ing it will not soon forget the occa-
sion.
Mr.. John A. Miles and his corps
of associates had prepared an excel
lent program Of addresses and musi-
cal numbers, which were rendered
before the lecture was delivered.
Representatives from the c. z. So
cieties of the Nineteenth Street,
Third Baptist, Zion Baptist and Lin
coin Temple and other churches
took part i'll the exercises of the
evening.
Last Sunday, October 80, was
Woman's Day, and right well did
they act their part. They did every
thing but preach the sermons, and
many believe they could have done
that with credit, but they seemed to
prefer that the honor might go to
the invited guests. At the morning
service Mrs. Mary c. Dismond, the
chairman of the Board of Deacon
esses, presided, assisted by Mrs.
Florence Glove and Mrs. Alice
Carroll. The sermon was delivered
by Rev. |. N. Ross of the Metro
politan A. M. E. Church, who took
for his text, 'If ye know these
things, happy are ye if ye do. them;"
John 3;.I7. He spoke for an hour,
and yet so interesting was his dis
course that it seemed but half that
time.
At $3.50 P. M. mass-meeting
was held, over which Mrs. Mary C.
Dismond also presided. The princi-
pal address Of the meeting was de-
livered by Mrs. M. Faneil of the
First Baptist Church of Alexandria,
Va. Professor Brawley of Howard
University also delivered a most ex-
cellent address. The musical num-
bers, with the exception Of a quartet,
were furnished by the ladies, one of
whom, Mrs. Mary Tignor, presided
at the organ.

Booker was formerly Miss Ella

The subject for discussion at the
meeting of the Christian Endeavor
Society of the Fifteenth Street
Presbyterian Church last Sunday
was "The Work of Our Denomina
ton in Foreign Lands" Mr.. John
Ewing gave very interesting and
graphic description of the work of
the Presbyterians in foreign mis-
sions. He stated that in one partic-
ular country the inhabitants are so
lacking in religion that they kill off
all of their female babes. Mission
aries are doing much, he stated, to
relieve this horrible situation. A
feature Of the afternoon was the
piano selection by Miss Brent. The
Christian Endcavofers regretted
that it was impossible for Rev. F. J.
Gripnke, their pastor, to be present.
