NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION
COMES TO DENVER IN 1922.

The people of Colorado without re-
spect to denomination will learn with
great satisfaction that the National
Baptist Association will hold its next
convention in this city in September
of next year. This is one of the very
biggest of our race gatherings and
Denver is fortunate in winning out
over the aspirations of st. Louis, Chi
cago and Baltimore. 1t is estimated
that the coming of the convention will
bring from three to five thousand del
egates and visitors to Denver. If there
is any possibility of such a number be-
ing here it is none to early for the
city to begin preparing for it. We are
TO be hosts to a great big convention
of representative men and women of
high Christian character, many of
the recognized leaders of national
standing. 1t therefore becomes com
munity affair. Let every organization
and society join hands in proving to
the world that Denver Is big enough
to take care of the biggest and best
of them

$50, 900 TAG DAY PERMIT WITH
DRAWN BY MANAGER OF SAFE
TY DOWNER AFTER OTHER Or
CARNATIONS PROTEST.

After series of protests by repre-
sentatives of the churches, women's
clubs, Universal Negro Improvement
Association and National Association
for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie, Manager of Safety Downer with
drew a permit granted to II. Il. Hen
derson, president of the United Ne
groes Protective Association, an organ
ization of few weeks old, whose pur-
pose as stated, is the colonization and
Christianizing of Liberia, Africa. Mr..
Henderson and his assistants, l. III.
Harper and others, have been collect
ing money from the public during
thirty-day drive for this cause, and ac-
eording to general report have secured
"a neat sum. Today, Oct. 1, should be
the winding up of the great drive, but
members of the community and organ
ization heads, seeing the dangerous
precedent that would be established in
the granting of a permit to an organ
ization that was not a charitable insti-
tuition, impressed the city official, who
in turn revoked the permit. The mem
bers of this new organization were
formerly of the Universal Negro I'M
provement Association, who were or
dered to desist in the drive by the
head of the parent body in New York,
and refusing to obey, they left and
formed new organization.

 One of the most charming numbers on the program was a duet of Annie Laurie" sung by Karola Prick and Mrs. Strahan. The lovely Highland d song was presented in a most accept able manner by these two talented soloists.
