been plowed up by shells, until it be-

FORMER IOWAN MAKING GOOD.
Kansas Preacher at Abyssinian Re-
vivAl

The Abyssinian Baptist church of
New York City, which is no years old,
closed las. Sunday evening one of the
its history. The meeting, which began
watch night, was to have closed on the
18th Of January, but the crowds were
so large, the interest so deep and re-
suits so great that the audience voted
unanimously to run it another week.
People came not only from every part
of Greater New York, but from subur-
ban towns and from Jersey. At many
Of the services dozens stood for want of
seats. One hundred and two persons
were added to the church, many joined
other churches and many others were
undecided.
The Rev. T. L. Griffith, pastor of the
Second Baptist church Of Topeka, Kan,
who is here waiting to 60 over seas as
"Y' worker, assisted the pastor, the
Rev. A. Clayton Powell. DR.. Griffith is
a graduate Of Wayland Seminary and
College, now Virginia Union University,
and spent two years at the Chicago
University. He and DR.. Powell were
old school mates and no two men could
have possibly worked more agreeably
together during the revival. DIR. Grit
fifth did most Of the preaching and it is
the unanimous opinion Of the thousands
who heard him that New York has not
listened to stronger preacher and
evangelist. His sermons not only
reached the unconverted and the back,
sliders, but greatly strengthened the
members who focked to hear him from
all the churches. Not only Abyssinia,
but every colored church in New York,
has higher conception of Christian
living and working because of his min
istry.
Long before 1880 Sunday evening,
when DIR. Griffith was booked to preach
his farewell sermon, every seat and all
standing room had been occupied and
hundreds were being turned away. AS
an expression of appreciation of his
splendid services, the audience gave him
$232.33. The New York people desire
to thank Kansas for lending them this
great preacher to assist DR.. POWELL
New York Age, N. Y.
DIR. Griffith was for many years pas
tor Of Corinthian Baptist church, Des
Moines, and his many old friends will
be glad to know Of his excellent work
in New York. $3.50 s's5s
DR.. Griffith will leave the United
States for Y. M. G.. A. work in France
this week and we wish him God speed
in his work.

NEGRO BRIGADE COMMENDED.

+'.+a "A. Z . W. SAfy L IuACC.
% December, 1918.
From Malvern. Hill Barnum, Brigadier
General, U. s. A. -a.s
To the Officers and men of the 183rd
Brigade.
Subject: Relief from command.
The order detaching me from COM
mand Of the 1s3rd Brigade was SO unex-
pected, and coming, as it did, just as the
brigade was moving, made it impossi-
BILE for me to give expression to my re-
greet at having to sever an association
OF over year and one that will be one
Of the p1easantest recollcctions of my
army career.
Having organized and trained the
1s3rd Brigade and commanded it
through its active service in the pres
emit war, can speak for the willing
compliance to all requirements that
made the work very enjoyable. When
men work with their hearts as well as
their heads and hands, the best results
are certain to follow.
1 feel that the officers and enlisted
men Of the brigade may justly be proud
Of the record made and / believe that
history will accord them no little
credit.
I trust that each one will do his ut
must to insure to the brigade the finest
record possible during the remainder of
its period Of service.
Finally in returning to their homes I
trust that each one will take with him
q high sense Of responsibility as an
A ~, oricon citizan and a keen desire to
perform faithfully whatever duties fall
to him in the future.
With such heritage from his army
service each one will not only have
helped win the war and thus rendered a
great service to humanity, but will,
himself, have become the gamer
through the remaining years Of his life.

posed of the 35Oth Machine Gun Bat

Abraham Lincoln. whose clear under
standing Of right and wrong, whose
great qualities of heart and mind and
character finally succeeded In liberat-
ing an entire race, was born just ITO
years ago, February IL, 1909, In
rough log cabin in the undeveloped
farmland Of Kentucky. ~.
Tho commemoration Of his birthday
will this year, as in every other, be
marked especially by the recollection
Of the Emancipation Proclamation
which gave US our freedom.
In Lincoln's own words, this eman-
cipation from slavery meant for the
Negro 'the right to eat the bread, with
out the leave OF anybody else, which
his own hand earns"
This was Sc years ago. Today, by
summons from the Federal Govern
ment, amounting almost to proclama-
ton, the right is urged upon us not
only to eat the bread we earn, but
steadily to set aside part of It SO that
eventually we may achieve our eman-
cipation from economic dependence.
Money invested in government secu-
rities-War Savings Stamps and Lib
erty Bonds-is the key which will
unlock for us financial liberty. Out
Of the fund they create we can get
homes, comforts, education. advance
ment and recreation. As Lincoln said !:
"The hired laborer Of yesterday labors
on his own account today and will
hire others to labor for him tomor-
row."
Not mere labor alone is necessary.
To be ready to use an opportunity the
products of ones labor must be accu-
mulated. Again, as Lincoln said !:
"Get ready and the chance will come"
There is another reason, still bet
ter one than that of personal profits,
why we should make every effort to
save and invest in Savings Stamps and
Liberty Bonds. Money loaned in this
way to the governmental give us a
share in that for which Lincoln gave
his life-will help to pay of the enor-
nous costs of the war for which many
Negroes have given their lives. They
gave themselves gladly. They have
made wonderful, never-to-be-forgot-
ten record Of patriotism and bravery
in the war.
Unless we do our full part, which,
after all, is extremely small compared
to what they who shall never return
have done, we shall have broken faith
with them and furnished the splendid
shield Of patriotism which they bur-
nished so brightly.
Can anyone imagine Lincoln, who
devoted all his time, energy and talents
