League has decided to meet next Au-
gust in Hot Springs, Ark, and if you
are going to be there l would advise
that you start right now to get ready,
and by the time the meeting is called
to order you will be right there with
the goods. The National Baptist
Sunday School and B. Y. P. u. con-
gress will meet in the same city June
Is, and l am saving money that l
can be on hand.
There are going to be some big do
ings this year and it will be year of
rejoicing with many people. The Ma
tional Baptist convention has pledged
to take on new life, and new life it is.
DR.. L. X. Williams is now the real
president, and you believe me when l
tell you he is putting on some stuff.
He has made trip to New York
which means good for the Baptists
Of this country. We are going to
dwell together in unity.
Some of US have had to shed tears
already this year, while others have
had to do lot of real, genuine "cuss-
ing" and some have just out-cussed
the cusser, and are ready to invent
some new kind of cussing in order to
stay ahead.
DR.. George Cleveland Hall, that
noted physician and surgeon, one Of
the best in America, has just been
fighting like the devil with them bugs
that would destroy me and consign
my body to mother earth to be eaten
by the worms, and he is about to
chase them back into their hiding
place, and say to them they shall not
have me yet while. 1t is wonderful
how a fellow can just listen and hear
them bugs talk, and then break down
their plans. 1t takes skill to do what
Or. Hall has done. came to him
with great big hole in the back Of
my head, where DR.. S. H. Thompson
had opened to let the bugs out, and
DR.. Hall had to work with them to
see that they got out of that hole,
closing it up behind them 81 they
could not return.
Or. Hall knows his real business,
and he IS hustler. He Is kind, he
IS loving, and he can cut you and you
hurt and will just smile and say,
Don't shuck me-" or something like
that. ! was not in the shocking bust
ness. 1 have been doing well, and
now | am about ready to leave.
1 want to express my sincere
thanks to Mrs. Charles Stewart. bet
ter known as Mrs. Elvie L. Stewart and
her son, and even extend few to hus-
band and father, for their kindness to
me. ] have had an Old Aunt Dolly

baby sheep, and even had some baby
lamb and some baby mutton. They
have taken good care of me, and now

L was in town all Of last week, and
doing this and that and that and this.
coming in touch with the doctor.
went down to see DR.. L. K. Williams.
and he received me like a brother:
went to see Harrison, and he acted
the same, but DIR. J. H. Branham gave
me the duck and highball, not per-
uniting me to get close enough to
hand him a red apple, but he don't
eat apples. He is just a busy man.
SO much responsibility that he can't
take up much time with the worthless
fellows. The world continues to move
and that is what DR.. Branham is do
ing. He is preaching funerals, mar
rying people. and talking to others to
keep them from getting divorced.
Sunday morning, right on time, in a
heavy snow, l went to Hope Presby-
terrain church, on invitation from the
pastor, to do the preaching that morn
ing. The people were there and they
told me that | preached a great SER
mon, but Of course that toted me on
the street car, and, in the afternoon,
returned and broke some verbs. nouns
and pronouns, adjectives, and all
them other things. IL was a pleasure
to meet these people, and when il
was all over they gave me big hunk
of I'm God We Trust" That will
give me some ride out of town.

home Of Editor Julius F. Taylor, Of
The Broad Ak, and he is some pump
kins- Mrs. Taylor i one Of the finest
women it has been my lot to meet

husband. They are as happy as two
little children. They have been this
