SAYS CHURCH WILL FURNISH
MAJORITY OF RACE LEADERS
Woodson's History of Negro Church
Makes Startling Disclosures.

For years to come the church will
furnish the majority of leaders of the
Negro Race is the belief expressed by
DR.. Carter G. Woodson in a new book
just published entitled "The History
OF the Negro Church" While the
author sees in the record OF the church
reasons for hope that the institution
will continue to figure in the life OF
the Negro as a conspicuous factor, yet
he does rot hesitate to consider the
faults and shortcomings OF the in
st.tution.
The startling feature OF the book is
the mass Of valuable information gen.
orally unknown to the public. Al
though not a churehman himself, DR..
Woodson has made the denominations
acquainted with themselves. The
work contains so many facts culled
from rare sources that it eompels the
attention OF everyone intelligently in
terested in the history OF the race.
The book is well-illustrated. and is un-
doubtedly the History OF the Negro
Church for which the public has long
been waiting There have been pro-
duced many volumes in this same
field, but none like this work. With
out denominstional bias it treats in a
gripping manner the strivings Of the
Christian Negroes after an ideal,
which they have for centuries en-
dcavored to attain by the development
OF their church There is an interest
ing panorama OF the coming OF the
missionaries, the conversion OF the
slaves, the rise Of the Negro preacher,
the independent church movement,
the untoward condition OF the neg
lected bondmen. the role played by
the Negro churchman in freedom and
what the Church IS doing today On
the whole, this work actually estab-
fishes the claims OF DR.. Woodson as
an authority in a new field. His
previous works The Education Of the
Negro Prior to 1901" "A Century OF
Negro Migration and his work as
Editor OF the Journal Of Negro Ills
tory have been widely read by both
white and coored people who have
been interested IN the history and de-
velopment OF the Negro race.
