The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1915-11-06

Hon. N. c. Crews, Editor of the Kan
sas City Sun: Your correspondent on
the N. A. A. c. p. in last issue regard
ing the Birth of a Nation" requires
that you name something better or
give a better plan. l would suggest
that if you would accept such from
me, that you inform the writer that
practice, not profession, is a better
plan. A good. well rounded out, heav-
lily supported newspaper with perma-
nent annual subscribers of not less
than $4,000 to 10000 will do more in
n issue to uplift or change condi-
tons than could 100 committees in six
months. If Kansas City's population
be 10000 Negroes, then two-thirds, or
10000, o fthem should be subscribers
o fthe Sun. The Sun has demonstrat.
ed its fitness as a worthy organ, as
spokesman for the race. The editor
of the Sun is beyond question or doubt
the best representative the race ever
had in newspaper work, for the cause.
Yes, sir, if the N. A. A. c. p. is sin
cere in its destruction of race humilia.

EDITORIAL.

Those members of the race who are
slipping in to see "The Birth of a
Nation and offering the excuse that
they merely wish to see how obnox-
ious it really is, might as reasonably
argue that a man should get drunk
just to see how bad he would feel
the next day, or that a woman should
make a night of it just to see how
she would afterwards feel. 1t is hard
to understand just why any normal
person should pay out his money just
to be insulted, especially when he has
been fully warned in advance of that
certain end of his patronage. Some
people possess remarkably strange
reasoning faculties.

MRS. MARSHALL DEAD.

Mrs. Ella Gertrude Marshall died
at the residence of her sister, Mrs.
Smith, 1909 East Thirteenth street,
Wednesday morning, October 81. Mrs.
Marshall had been i'll for many, many
months, and for weeks her life had
hung by a thread. About two weeks
prior to Mrs. Marshall's death God
called her youngest sister, little Hat
tie d. Warren, from labor to rest.
Mrs. Marshall, of course, was not able
to attend the funeral and insisted that
/ twould not be long before she, too,
would join her little sister in that Ce-
lestial city where parting is not
known. So, Just about two hours be-
fore the Sun had registered the noon
day on the morning of the 9th the
soul of Mrs. Marshall took its flight
to the God that gave it. She was a
patient sufferer, but as her life neared
its close she seemed to be oh so anx-
to her mother:
81 am just waiting on the Lord.
wish he would come today. 1t will
not be long before I'll be sleeping be
side my little sister. l am perfectly
willing and ready to CO."
She was rs years. 8 months and
days old. She left a devoted hus
band, a kind and loving father and
mother, n sister, two brothers ant
a host of relatives and friends tc
mourn her loss.
She is not dead, for there is no death
For those who love the Lord,
The servant of God just falls asleep
Who is trusting in His word,
And this great change ascribed tc
death
Is but a manifestation of the power Of
God.
The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1915-11-06

The Sun offers a welcome to the
Negro teaching fraternity which is
just closing it's annual meet in this
city. To the teachers of the state
many of whom are pursuing their
tasks under great disadvantages and
who have little to encourage them be-
yond their own natural impulses to
advance the cause of education among
a struggling people, all society is con
stantly indebted. 1t is %regretable, too,
that on account of meager wages and
other circumstances many of the rural
teachers who most need the inspira-
ton which comes through such a
meeting are unable to be present at
these sessions. To these, also, we ex-
tend our greetings, hoping through
their patient labors to finally behold
better things.
