The bystander. [volume] (Des Moines, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1917-10-19

turn to truth and come into this
light. We have a part in the Bible
that speaks about women preachers.
Yes, and that is to who God sees tit
to lay it upon. One woman leader OF
Christ Christ came down and made
it possible for even one in st. John,
goth chapter, 18th verse. After he
was crucified, died and arose he arose
with a message for the woman. And
he saith unto her, Touch me not, for
l am not yet assembled to my Father,
but 60 to my brethren and say unto
them, l ascend unto my Father and
your Father, and to my God and your
God. Why can't woman carry good
news now. God gives reward to all
who are faithful if we didn't find so
much fault with each other we would
be better off. The book after not be-
ing printed by the regimental press
will cost a great deal more than first
expected, so beloved if we gather in
two million dollars on sales of cards
our book can be printed then. Why!
Because there are over 100 vision pic
lures in this book and to have the
photo man to make pictures for cuts
and print and bind the book would
make it loss to the work. One illus
tration cost $3.50 to get picture.
Why l know? Because l have had
one made for the cards. This is to my
friends as we'll as enemies, for love
nv race as we'll as I love and live in
peace daily with all mankind. Friends
my present health prevents me from
going from door to door as would
like with the cards, so won't you send
or bring an order. God is waiting;
Jesus says come. We are not COM
PEELED, no nor we don't have to, but
if we will God says welcome. This is
all 1 can say to my race unless your
hearts and minds change l am COM
PEELED to say one-tentn OF hubby mon
ey must 60 hereafter for fuel
Before closing l must say in re-
CARDS to Mr.. John L. Thompson ana
Mrs. Emerald Mash these two have
did every way to to make prices as
low as possible to help this cause, not
because I bought book of Mr..
Thompson, nor give him a years sub
scription for the Bystander, but be-
cause of the Christian spirit and
unity within his heart for God and all
mankind and since the 5th these two
have at request bought card and two
other ladies, Mrs. B. o. Bannonx and
Mrs. G. Legion Of Lathrop, Mo. On
Saturday afternoon when Mrs. Mash
and Mr.. Thompson bought a card l
felt like a prisoner who had got JUS
tice from God. Yes, beloved, l felt
like the old clock "Unity and Charity
had been hanging in the tomb with an
anxious and faithful prisoner who
wanted to start the clock and let the
light shine in the tomb and be set free
to 60 on her journey, so as they
turned over the $100 l imagine the
old clock struck on the correct hour
and God spoke and said, Samaria
these are my angels. send to set
you free from the tomb, beloved, since
the old clock has began to strike are
you willing to keep the correct time
by uniting and sending for one of
these cards. There are 100000
colored people in the U. S and 8,OOO,-
900 can sacrifice so cents. I am not
working for a pull of unity, but for
unity of God. I want the race to be
in righteousness, what they longed to
be for years. 1 am not after any
body's SO cents for self. But as l say
and feel | cannot afford to continue to
