OUR TRAVELLING REPRESENTA-.
TIVE.

Mrs. Rosetta B. Green, travelling
representative for the Kansas City Sun
writes: My first stop was at Pleasant
Hill, Mo-, and it was here that my
late husband, the Rev. Henry Green
was pastor of the A. NJ. e. church for
two years. The work We wrought in
His name is still in evidence as seen
in the Christian activity of the young
people, who are the hope and support
of the Church, only a few of the older
n e being left. Space will not permit
my feeling as returned to this Church
and people after ten years absence.
In our handclasp we smiled first and
then the tears rolled down our cheeks
unbidden which spoke %eloquently OF
the joys and sorrows through which
we had passed. -. Sunday the service
was very good at both churches,
Methodist and Baptist and though not
well attended both enjoyed spiritual
feasts. At three P. NJ. l attended the
A. M. E. Sunday school and found a
very interesting School Of young peo-
pie and children. | addressed them
and organized a Junior Missionary So
ciety. The pastor, Rev. w. l.. Lillard
is a splendid preacher and the Church
will succeed under his leadership.
Prof. ]. s. Moten is slowly recovering
from a serious illness. . Mrs. VIM.
Bryant and Mr.. A. Scott and Mr.. Geo.
Wood are on the sick list. -. Mrs.
Rosa Gipson is visiting in Kansas City
Our people in Pleasant Hill and
