That the color line Is in vogue AZ the
Sacred Temple-s Christian institution
for the portrayal on the screen OF sacred
scenes-is regretable. But il is not start
lung.
Color prejudice has elevated its cobra
head in many ways in the so-cslled
churches Of Christ in this so-cslled land
Of freedom" Sixty years ago slavery was
preached from the pulpit Sixty years
ago ministers of the Gospel We'd with
others in the ownership of slaves and the
active advocacy Of the slave regime The
Episcopalian Church Was especially noto-
rious for the defence of slavery. The
Christianizing and civilization propagan-
de- OF the Christian Church among the
colored race Of mankind consisted largely
in curbing the slaves desire for freedom
and making him more trsctable with the
admonition that he be "kind and gentle
and otedient as was the Lord Jesus.
Thee slsve-owning preachers did not fear
TO misrepresent the Bible TO show that
the bondage of the black man was the
will of God.
Christianity As taught by some white
people has been a farce and a sepulchral
lie But this is not the fault OF the gent
lest and wisest Of religions. The tenets
that Christ taught aad practised I'm the
streets Of Jerusalem are ss wholesome and
practicable today a. then. They consist
ed simply in doing unto others as you
would they shoold do unto you" Vet
they have sinned the most who have
preached and professed this Gospel. True,
the Mohanmedans put In the sword OF
galley those who would not accept their
Proffered faith, but they at least offered
In Mshonet's name an alternative: Be
lieye, and thou art free In the eyes of
the Christian, however, the black man
was just 80 much negotiable flesh. III he
believed 50 much the better lie would
be the more submissive To their chains.
Their tenet Of Christianity Was, Believe
in the eentleness and humility Of Jesus
and be thou Submissive to our yoke"
That the white mans brand Of Christ
ianity has suffered no material change
with the advance of time is evident.
Christian nations are still engaged in the
slave traffic. Colored people are still be-
ing wrongfully used at the hands Of peo-
pie who profess the gentle. loving Christ
Discrimination, segregation, race preius
dice, lyncbing, legal mur ders and wrongs
unnameable as unoountsble are still he
ing prsetised in this world of ours by
those who preach the Christ and redemp-
ton.
Does the Sacred Temple believe in one
God, or does it offer one God for those
occupying the lower floor and another
God for the coIored people il segregates
TO the gallery?-Amsterdam News.

title Of q timely publication PREPARED by
L. j. Hanlfsn. state supervisor Of rural

ment by NJ. p. Shswkey, State Super

shows that although LIS one-room schools
have been consolidated with other rural

county superintends snts, 500 one-room
country schools that could be consolidated
or abandoned without any great incon-
venience 10 the scholars. This IL a situ-
alton that every board of education should
give careful consideration at their next
annual meeting. For since il costs about
500 to run each school. il can easily be
seen that the people are spending in the
neiehborbood Of So, 900 for the support
Of schools that are not really needed for

board Of education simply closed two Of
these schools and provided that tbese -
