EUGENIcS.

The Scientific Eugene meetings con
Quoted throughout the city by Mrs.
Rosa Miles of Birmingham, Ala, are
meeting with mueh success. Mrs.
Miles speaks to, the women in the
afternoons and the men at night. The
meeting at the Pleasant Green Baptist
church, Rev. Geo. McNeal, pastor, was
a great success. The pledged
themselves willingly to join in the
movement to breed the Nation upon
higher planes. Many of the older wo-
men expressed themselves as being
sorry that they did not have the in
formation forty years ago. Large
crowds at the First Baptist church,
Rev. Bowen, pastor. The house was
perfectly quiet and the c~ountenance
of the hundreds of women present car
ried with them the seriousness of the
occasion. AS the speaker pleaded for
the protection of the life of the babe
in the embryo and the mOlding of the
| character during the days of CESSATION,
many mothers gave their experiences
with reference to dealing with their
children in the embryo. These expert
ences are very helpful to the younger
women who are to be the mothers OF
the future. A very interesting meet
ing was held at the Metropolitan Bap
fist church, Rev, Holmes, pastor. Two
meetings were held at 18th and Ter
race, Rev. G.. T. Mosby, pastor, which
brought about a manifestation of a
deeper awakening of laying a racial
foundation. The women of Mt. Zior
Baptist church manifested much in
terest in the Eugene Movement anC
pledged their support. The womeT
were out in large numbers at King
Solomon's Baptist church, Rev. Clay
pastor, and said they were glad to join
in the movement to help breed the
Nation up upon higher planes. Every.
thing was lovely at the c. NJ. L
church. If we could have meetings
like this over this country and the
people would take heed to the teach
ings of Sister Miles, we would soor
have the change in our Nations life
for which we have been praying
lN6N. NJ. ". NdtlltluB pltSlutll
Methodist Ministers Alliance of Kan
sas City and vicinity. The meeting
at Vine Street Baptist church was OF
no small Importance. 1t would be wei
for the people everywhere to heal
Sister Miles and practice her teach
ings because the welfare of the ma
ton is wrapped in the things which
she teaches. Rev. Ewing is the pastor
of the Vine Street church, where al
excellent meeting was held. The two
meetings at the NJ. E. church at 9tf
and Oakland, Kansas City, Kas,, ere
ated much interest in the movement
81 wish that the people everywhere
could hear Sister Miles and put int
practice the eugenic lessons which
she is teaching. The world would Ger
lainly be better off, said Rev. T, S
McMorris.
The W. meetings held at the Pleas
ant Green Baptist church were long t.
be remembered. The women were en-
thusiastic and manifested great inter
est in the movement.
Bethel A. NJ. E. church, where thu
Rev. F. d. Wells is pastor, had TIVE
large audiences which evinced thei
appreciation.

In MEMORIAM.

In loving remembrance of our darl-
ing little MARCEL, who passed away
one year ago today, March %, 1915:
The days since you left us, our darl.
ing MARCEL,
Have now heightened into a year,
And your first anniversary in heaven
Was gained by many a heartache
and tear.
We wonder since you left us so lonely
How the beautiful flowers can
bloom,
Or the birds start each day with a
joyful song
While our heart is so heavy with
gloom.
Sadly missed by foster father and
mother,
MR.. AND MRS. FRED S. DOUGLAS.

IN ME MoRIAM.

In sad and loving memory of our
dead mother, Mollie Neff. who depart
ed this life March 2S, 1911:
God knew all about it, how noble
How gentle she was and how brave;
How brilliant her possible future
Yet put her TO sleep in her grave.
God knew all about those who loved
her,
How bitter their trial must be;
And right thru it all He is loving
And knows so much better than we.
So in the deep darkness we are trust
ing
One day we shall say it was well
God took from her brow earth's lau-
rels {.
And crowned her with deaths i'm.
