The Colored Church
By William H. CASTOR.

In our review it has been our en-
deavor to establish the fact that the
church is a human institution; that
it's ties carry no armoured effect
against the corrupt consequences OF
immoral environment; no guarantee
against wrong. The genuaections in
dulged in by it's adherents does not
promote higher moral standards; its
teachings. it's practices and preach
ings fail to promote the brotherhood
of man. The professed christian is
no immaculate example. In fact the
very record of the church is stained
with perfdy. We must not destroy
the church as an organization. But
there must be renovation; not a
return to it's former stage, but a
complete change that will make for
practical example, that truly means
the destruction of moral turpitude.
1t is too often deplorable, to find those
who so vociverously proclaim their
christianity, so absolutely devoid of
justice and humanity. The statement
that viciousness and immortality is
constrained through the influence of
the church is absolutely absurd. Of
ten those who are the most promi-
nent in the affairs of the church,
when unmasked are found to be some
of the very lowest objects of digen-
eracy. Numerous cases are on record
where christianity has been used as
the means of promoting immortality
dishonesty and crime. The church has
been used for the purpose of fleeing
the lambs. And why should it be
otherwise? The doctrine of the
church is not to prevent crime but
forgive it.
"Today 1 offer you the pardon of
the gospel-full pardon, free pardon.
l do not care what your crime has
been. Though you say you have
committed a crime against God,
against your own soul, against your
fellow man, against your family,
against the day Of judgment, against
the cross of Christ-whateve your
crime has been, here is pardon, full
pardon, and the very moment you
take that pardon your heavenly Fa-
ther throws his arms about you and

California Friend Gets Me Into
Trouble

| have had several letters during
| the past six months from Zenas Hex
minway of California, former resi-
dent of Brighton. They have been
very witty and entertaining, and a
portion of them have been published
/ in the Independent-Repo The
one appearing in our issue of Febru-
/ airy 10, dealt very cleyerly with the
subject OF beechnuts, shipment of
which had been forwarded to Mr.
Hemminway. All our parcel post
packages are stamped before leaving
our Office, hence the postoffice officials
have no control over the matter ex-
cept to call our attention I'm any In
stance where we fail to put on enough
postage. On the package going to
Mr. HemmiDway we were unneces-
sarily liberal and computed it at 16c
pound, whereas the zone rate for
California would have been 12c. Mr..
Hemminway, speaking of the United
States as a going concern" for
which he admitted being more or less
responsible as a stakeholder, facious-
" accepted responsibility for this
overcharge and returned the excess
postage instamps. The whole idea
was very clever and witty, and must
have been Of the most innocent intent
Any reader, however, unfamiliar
with our custom of determining the
amount and putting on our own post
age would get the idea from Mr.. Hem
mingways letter that we had been
overcharged by the Skowhegan post
Office. This was not at all the case,
and we hasten to say that we never
received anything but the fairest and
most courteous treatment. We are
the largest patron of the local Office
and in the two or three thousand dol
lar business we do there annually
have many occasions to be grateful
to the postmaster and all his assist
ants for very many kindly favors.
We surely do not intend to put on
excess postage. but when we do, of
course, we cannot hold them respon-
siblc for the overcharge. We are
sure our friend, Mr. Hemminway did
not intend any unpleasant inference
of this sort, and we are very glad to
correct any wrong impression which
may have come from the reading of
his letter.

can be added to the safety of the

The whole building with its modern

mond is an accomplished teacher. HIS
pupils show plenty of enthusiasm ana
spirit Their work is also OF very
high order. Especially interesting
was the work in penmanship which
is carried on to piano accompaniment.
Another very interesting feature OF
their program is the music course.
Until this year music has not been
included in the Grammar school cur
riculum but a course has been start
cd this year. Under Mr.. Raymond's
careful training the students have
shown very remarkable progress.

such courses as he wants to unless
