Shun Them Like Vipers.

(From the Martinsburg PioneeryPress)
Just as long as the negro believes
"he has a place." and is constantly
jerking off his hat when out of it, he
will be the cause of many others en-
during hardships forever and aye. AS
long as certain class OF whites take
to this class Of sycophants, the more
rigidly those who wear their sover-
eighty under their own hats, should
denounce, discard and shun them as
they would viper.

THE APPEAL congratulates the

The colored people who have been
in this country for many generations
are Americans and they ought to be
Americans. To call themselves
negroes" means to be set aside from
other Americans. The very word
negro" spells segregation. ,

The new register of the treasury is
five-eights Cherokee Indian. AS that
is more than half it may be right to
call him an Indian. The former re-
gister, J. c. Napier, is not more than
one-eighth of African blood, yet he is
called a Negro. How about it?

Some of the colored papers are

(F'rOm the Martlnsburg P1Oneer-Press)
All hail to our brave confrere the
Hon. H. C. Smith, editor of the old
reliable Gazette for going to the Gov.
ernor of Ohio, and preventing that
internal play, ''The Niger" to be ex-
hibited in the great state of Ohio. To
boldly fight such impositions is the un-
flinching duty Of every decent man
among us. Every victory won by the
few courageous agitators encourages
others to step into the arena Of de-
fence; and may the time come soon
when towards will be unknown, and
all stand united for manhood rights

Whosoever liveth and believeth in
me shall never die

On the summit of Mt. Rubidoux, one
of the loftiest crags of California, a
huge cross was erected some years
ago in honor of Father Sierra, a pion-
eer Priest who years ugo blazed the
way and laid the foundation of Cali
fornia's civilization and power. The
towereing structure stands out against
the blue sky, in solemn, silent gran
deu, perpetual monument to the mem
ory of one man who gave of his life
and his all for the benefit of his race.
A prominent citizen of California con-
ceived the happy idea of having Eas-
ter service and worship at sunrise on
Easter mornings, at the foot of this
cross, on this rocky crag. And now,
as the morning sun kisses with it's
first rays, and bathes in It's benignant
light of glory this cross, thousands of

THAT EXTRA 1000 SUNDAY
SCHOOL PUPILS.

The County Sunday School Asso-
citation has set the mark at 1000 new
additions to the Sunday School forces
of the county this Spring and Sum-
mer.
The annual meeting will be held
about the middle of June, and by that
time it is hoped that the one thous-
and or more new members will have
been secured. There are about 55
schools in the county, all told. There
was reported last year ut the annual
meeting, about 5000 enrolment, all
told-teachers, officers and scholars.
There are about nine thousand chill
dren and young people in country be-
tween the ages of six and twenty
years, so it appears that not one
third of the children are in the Sun
day school. We want to go after the
outside two thirds. Also, the faith
ers and mothers, snould be interest
ed. The babies and little ones too
young to attend, should be secured for
the cradle roll. The Superintendents
must take the lead in this forward
move. 1t is suggested that an invita-
tion or new membership committee
be appointed in each class, and II Raj
ly Day be appointed.
The pastors of the churches will, of
course, give hearty cooperation. Let
the Spring and summer of 1915 be
made memorable in the Sunday school
work.

PATRONS DAY AT

The faculty of the Tazewell High

tons to every patron and well-wisher
OF the school to be present on Pat
rons Day, April 7th. The idea is to
give the patrons a full near view of
the school and the character and the
methods of work. No attempt will be
made by the teachers or pupils to
SHOW off," or put on anything in the
way of unusual or extra wor. Encb
class will go on as usual with its reg
ular work, giving the parons an Old.
portunity to see at first hand how the
work is being carried on. Prof. Col
lehon is very anxious that this first
Patrons Day shall be success. Pat
rons and visitors are invited to come
at O'Clock, or as soon thereafter as
possible, and go clear through the
the entire school, and the patrons
OF the school should appreciate his eff
fort to secure their presence and CO.
operation. Every patrons of the
school whatsoever is given personal
cordial invitation to be present on
April 7th. The opening exercises Mt

paid the salaries or large part there
of, of his workers and helpers, num-
bering about 18 people. After this
he still had left handsome sum. Be-
fore there was any payments or di-
visions he deposited one tenth, or
$4,000 in the bank to the credit of his
charity fund. He gives strictly and
conscientiously one tenth Of all he re-
ceives. The number Of "trail hitters"
whose names were recorded, totaled
nearly $4,000 people of all ages, con-
ditions and races. The ministers and
workers in Philadelphia, judging from
their experience and observation since
the close Of the campaign, declare it
to be their opinion that there will be
and has been already, at least three
converts outside for every one whose
name was recorded during the meet
ings. If this estimate is correct, or
nearly SO, the direct outcome of the
campaign in Philadelphia will foot up
about 100000 professions. How does
it all show up? The 100000 converts
cost, all told, about 100000 or about
or little less than $1.00 each. The
people, among them some ministers,
who are complaining about this Tex
travagance" and "waste" would do
well to remember, that the average
cost per convert in the churches of
this country is from $3.50 to $3.50
each, not counting interest on invest
ments in church property. If there
be "extravegance" and waste" from
pure commercial point Of view, it
would seem to be not in such meet
ings and campaigns as Mr.. Sundays.
And, again, the entire amount given
MIR. Sunday was given in small
amounts, not by the rich. There were
only two checks-one for $1,000 and
one for $500, of any largo amounts.
And the people who gave the money
are not among the "kickers." This
is, however, low, unworthy view of
the whole matter, but somebody start
ed to talk and their mouths should be
stopped. 1t was a Judas who COM
planned that this waste should have
been given to the poor.
The worth Of this campaign and all
religious activities cannot be meas.
ured in dollars and cents. For years
to come, as far as the newspapers are
read, there will still be sinners and
wanderers along the highways of life
turning their faces and steps tow.
