He FORGOT ETHICS
But the Doctor Understood Boys,
Which Was More Important.
His Talk Of the Old Fishing Hole and
the Summer Camping Trip Sue
ceeded Where Medicine
Failed.

The doctor byalked slowly upstairs.
The little boys illness was. not yield,
ing to treatment as he would have
wished. He had been doing all that
medicine would do for the boy, but
the delay in calling him had given the
sickness such a start that he had made
little progress in checking it. So he
went upstairs with a heavy heart.
Jimmie smiled as the young doctor
came into his room. Jimmie was the
smiling kind, though he had found it
hard to be cheerful.
The doctor had many other calls to
make, and he left soon with the prom
Use to call again that night. When he
came again the little patient was
worse, though he probably did not
realize it. The doctor took his pulse
and his temperature and asSed the
usual questions of his mother. Then
he did a highly unethical thing. But
he understood boys and especially the
n before him.
Jimmie" he said, "you and I are
going to fight hard to get you well,
but we are going to get you WELL" The
boy smiled; the doctor had touched
the right chord. Nobody but you and
I can do it. Mother can't help you (;
neither can sister or brother or father.
l am going to come to see you twice
a day. We have got to get you In
good shape SO that you will be all
ready to go camping this summer with
the rest of the boys.
you remember that little redeye
hole down by those willows where l
stopped to watch you fish when 1 came
by in the automobile? Well, 1 drove
past there last week and it looks to
me like it is going to be better than
ever. A big log has flOated down there
and you IA sit On it in the shade of
the willows and never get n bit hot,
even in July. But before you go fish
ing you will have to get well. 1 think
We can have you out of bed in two
weeks"
The little chap in the bed looked
hard at the doctor. He was only ten
years old, and ii Is hard for ~ten-year-
old boys to lie in bed. He had seen
the doctor swim across a wide, swift
river, he knew the doctor could lift
him with two fingers; he knew the
doctor liked little boys and liked to
help them all he could. In his boy
mind the doctor was a hero. "Yes, sir
(the boy was speak,ng), if you say we
have to fight, I'll 10 just what you
say. 1t is hard not to get to play af-
ter school Ia tear rolled down and
lost itself in the sheet near the boys
earl, but 1 a put my clothes on,
can't II" The doctor nodded, and, for
getting about medicine, plunged into
another story of next summer. He
talked for almost al hour to the boy.
Which was also not exactly ethical.
But when he rose to go he noticed a
new light In the young eyes.
II think we will have Jimmie out
playing in about two weeks" he said
to the anxious mother. And as he
threw his car into "high," a listener
might have heard him humming softly
as was his habit when his heart was
not heavy.--Indianapolis News.

THE FEDERATION or THE COL
oRED CHRISTIAN CHURCHES
OF GREATER KANSAS CITY.
The Colored Brotherhood /.

To the Colored Brotherhood,
This is to call your attention to the
meeting of the International Chris
tan Missionary. Convention in Kansas
City, Mo, October 24-S1, 1917. Also
call your attention to the great need
of a national meeting of Negroes of
the church.
We consider we have in the meeting
of the international Convention of
Brotherhood here this fall, a great OPP
p~ortunity for a wise and helpful meet
ing in all respects for the Negro
Christian Brotherhood.
The three Colored Christian
Churches Of Greater Kansas City,
their friends and sister churches join
in cordially inviting the Brotherhood
to Kansas City, and will make you well
come.
Kansas City is in the territory of
the disciples of Christ and is N Of
their strongholds, and the central
states of the Mississippi Valley hold a
big population of the Brotherhood of
both races.
Kansas City can be easily reached
by railroads from all sections of the
country.
To the convention there will be spe-
cial rates on all railroads to Kansas
City.
We can meet on this occasion in
Kansas City much cheaper in all re-
spects than any other city.
We can witness the great Inter-Na-
tional Convention and be in the at
mosphere of one of the greatest re-
ligious Missionary bodies in the worlu.
A part of the sessions will be held
in the Second Christian Church, Twen-
ty-fourth and Woodland Ave, The pro-
gram of these sessions will be Ma
tional in scope and nature. Some of
u greatest preachers, speakers and
workers of both races have accepted
places on the program.
The program will consist largely Of
symposium, conferences and round
table talks respecting our local, state
and National Missionary Educational
work.
The evening addresses will be made
by men and women of the church of
National reputation as convention and
platform speakers.
Representatives and Secretaries of
the National Missionary Boards, and
our National Field Workers have
promised to be on hand and take part
in the program.
We claim the race has much in Kan
sas City, of which to be proud, and
that you will enjoy. 1t will be well
worth your time and money to spend
a few days in Kansas City, especial
ly on such a mission.
So, a. in all, this VIII be a great
meeting ror you to attend, and We
urge our ministers and faithful work
ers throughout the country to come.

Churches of Greater Kansas City.
