CHRISTMAS AT THE MASONIC
HOME

The home was beautifully d%ecorat-
ed with Christmas bells and holly;
the day passed very pleasantly. Old
Santa was good to all. Early in De-
cember l wrote to several courts ask
ing them to assist. me in trying to
make the old people happy Christmas.
Not from their court treasury but a
free-will offering from the sisters that
felt so impressed, the following courts
complied with the request, saying that
it was a great pleasure for them to
send some token of remembrance to
make the old folks happy: Green Val
ley court No. 20, Marshall; Williams
No. SO, Fayette; Ezekiel No. SO, Sails
bury; Silver Star No. 62, Butler; Jo-
sephine No. So, Huntsville; Ideal No.
1902, Moberly; Golden Spray No. 81,
Moberly and Evening Star No. IL,
Carrolton. When the same reached us
we felt that Charity, God given Char
ity was the generous impulse of
every act. Each inmate was given a
box containing socks, stockings, hand
kerchiefs, aprons, suspenders, break
fast shawls, candies, oranges, nuts,
and each a half dollar. The matron
presented each his box explaining why
she thought they would enjoy this
treat in their declining days; after
breakfast each went to his room seem
ingly happy and yisably affected; later
in the week a package from Kenner
court No. 1O5, Brookfield and Queen
Ann court No. 40, Lexington a box. AS
Matron l want to show my apprecia-
tion by thanking all who in any way
assisted us. Let us as sisters strive
to do all the good W. can, in all the
ways we can to help the Masons, who
are doing so much for the good of the
Masonic home. Again thanking kind
ly for everything given and wish
ing each a New Year of peace, plenty,
prosperity and Gods choice blessings,

A GREAT NEW YEAR RECEPTION
AT Y. M. C. A.
Many out-of-Town Visitors-Letter
From Pennsylvania Woman
Notes.

AS was to be expected, the New
Years reception and open house was a
grand affair. The vast throngs that
came, surpassed all expectations. The
reception committee had only planned
to receive 500 people and had ~"favors'
for only that number. These favors
ran out early in the evening. The ca
feteria was crowded drought the af-
ernoo and early in the evening every
morsel of food had been consumed.
The lobby was beautifully decorated
with colored crepe paper and holly.
There were exhibitions by the bust
ness mems class and classes of high
school boys; also swimming exhibit
tons by the men and boys in the
swimming pool. Every department in
the building was a bee hive. The lob
by was filled with satisfied citizens,
who had made this great building pos
sible. If the New Years reception is
a criterion of the years work, great
results are to be expected for the year
1915.

With the spirit of u%nequalled school

Splendid specimens of oratorical eff

The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1915-01-09

A Methodist minister at Beggs,
Okla. declares that the Negroes OF
his state are hopeless. He says the
ministry is largely filled with graft
ers, the Negroes will not patronize
Negro merchants, the school rooms
are presided over by incompetent
teachers gathered from the red light
districts of st. Louis and Kansas City,
democratic newspapers are read, while
publications of our own race are
thrown aside, doctors, lawyers, edf-
tors, dentists and preachers get their
wives into the school rooms while sin
gle girls are driven to the wash tub.
There is no "red light" district in
Kansas City. but the rest of the ar
rangement may be true, perhaps is
true OF the Negroes everywhere. That
is why we are "jimcrowed" and treat
ed with such gross indifference as a
race in all sections Of the country.
