To promote thrift and economy among
the oolored race OF Richmond, the Mechan-

November 20: 1901. To say that this
institution has been success would be
giwinp but vague impression of what it
has accomplished in less than decade.
The bank was founded on stock sub
scriptions by negroes only. It was
originally capitalized at s25, 900, but this
was increased last year to 100000. The
institution has flourished steadily since
it first began business,
This week has seen the bank established
in its new and handsome home, Clay and
Third Streets. This is the only banking
and office building in the United States
built entirely by negro capital and utilized
exclusively by negro tenants. Most of
the occupants Of the building ere colored
lawyers and physicians.

I'm Pilgrim and I'm a Stranger

"For the first time since the memory
of our oldest boy runneth not to the
contrary, we attended the Methodist
church last Sunday morning, and what
we saw and heard and felt made us
ashamed that we have so long neglected
this pleasure, especially as il is with
out money and without price" The
song by Miss Edith Cope, "I'm Pill
GRIM" was one of the sweetest and
most touching we have ever heard sung
at sacred service, and we felt doubly
paid for the sacrifices we had under
gone in blacking our shoes, taking our
annual" and otherwise getting ourself
in church goable condition. Miss
Cope has rich, clear, cultivated voice,
and in a modest, unassuming manner
she rendered this song so beautifully
pathetic that the sentiment of it went
straight to the hearts of the congrega-
ton, and toned us up to receive the
splendid sermon by DR.. Ridley. We
left the church feeling once more like
good old shouting Methodist, and
promised ourself, our wife and our
babies that we wouldn't miss another
service during this year.
The above article was taken from a
Rusk, Texas, newspaper and refers to
Edith Cope, youngest daughter of Mr.,
I'll. a. Cope of Brockway town. The
young lady has been away from Yale

MOVE TO OWOSSO.

Saturday evening about twenty-five
members of the Lady Maccabees pre-
sented themselves at the home of Mrs.
j. &. Holden, who was greatly surprised
to have so many callers at once, but
quickly made them all cordially well
come. The ladies stayed only long
enough to express their sorrow that
Mrs. Holden was removing from Yale,
to extend the hope that she would find
all happiness and prosperity in her new
home and leaving her with little token
of their ppreciationNan respect in the
shape of pretty silver souvenir spoon
marked l.. o. Z. NJ. M.
Mrs Holden accepted the gift i'm the
spirit 1t was given trusting that Peer
less Hive would increase and prosper
with the years.
Another surprise came upon Mr.. and
Mrs. Holden Tuesday They had
been working all day packing house
hold goods, and possibly the thought Of
supper was far from them, but not so
with the good people of the NJ f..
church, who loaded with chairs and
baskets, marched in and proceeded to
set tables for a royal good feast.
About fifty were present. These good
times together are nothing new for the
NJ. +. people but this one was tinged
with little sadness with the thought
that it might be long time before Mr..
and Mrs. Holden would be with them
again. Rev. Gilchriese in behalf of
those present, presented the host and
hostess with a set of silver knives and
forks. The response from Mr.. and
Mrs. Holden showed they were deeply
affected.
Again on Wednesday evening were
Mr.. and Mrs. j. &. Holden surprised
and honored AT the regular meeting
Of Yale chapter o. K. s., farewell re-
ception had been planned for them. A
program came after the order of busi-
ness, of music and recitations, COLA
tion of ice cream and cake was served,
and gift of handsome Past Matron's
badge was given to Mrs. Holden, pre-
sented by Associate Matron Pearl Nc
Donald She acknowledged the gift in
feeling manner, appreciating the thor
ough good will of the Chapter.
Mrs. Holden has held the Office Of
Secretary this year, which post she has
now resigned.
In chronicling these events in honor
of our townspeople of many years land
there may have been other events) we
have no need to say that they have the
respect and love of the whole city, ac-
tions speak for themselves, and it also
goes without saying that all regret the
departure of Mr.. and Mrs. Holden for
new home in Owosso. Having for so
many years made their home in Yale
it has seemed to all that a break has
come, never to be repaired, but certain.
ly all good wishes go with them and it
is hoped Yale will often seem to them
good place TO visit.

Rev. Z. III. Case begins Sunday eve-
ming series of sermons upon questions
that are often asked concerning christ
ianity and christian life. 1t is very i'm.
portant that Christians and those en-
tering upon Christian life should have
an intelligent comprehension of what
the Christian life means. The first of

the question "What is Christ to me?
The outline of the sermon will be
"What is Christ to mep Christ is
1. Our Savior. This implies a need
of a Savior. The holiest person who
ever lived needed Christ. The Bible
teaches that there is no forgiveness
without atonement See John 30,
Eph. IL, Heb. 9:22. He saves us from
our sins by bearing them and freeing
us from condemnation. (Rom. 8:l) He
delivers us from Sins power by giving
us the Holy Spirit, making us children
of God and gives us power to resist sin
and temptation. Our part is to repent
of our sins and leave them, and commit
ourselves to Christ for pardon and
cleansing and for life and service.
In like manner Rev. Case will show
that Christ is
