Mt. Zion Baptist Church.-Rev. H.
C. Leland occupied the pulpit at both
services last Sunday. AT eleven a.

Georgia Pastor Refuses
TO Jim Crow Members

ATLANTA, Ga. - To a crowded
congregation composed of straying
lambs of many churches besides its
own members, the Rev. J. Raymond
Henderson, militant and progressive
young minister of the Greater Wheat
Street Baptist Church. announced to
his audience that he had refused a
large number of white citizens who
requested that he reserve seats for
them to hear the Wise Singers of
Philadelphia. who entertained at the
church last Sunday night.
Against Policy
1t is an established custom among
some churches. schools and colle9es
of the South to reserve seats for
white people Even among some of
our representative institutions, to
provide special seats for whites is
looked upon as a privilege, and such
segregation is often solicited.
But the Rev. Mr.. Henderson
spurns these practices, and emphati-
cally asserted that to reserve seats in
his church for white people or any
other people was absolutely against
his policy, and that he will maintain
such stand as long as he is pastor
of the church.

The Tragedy of Ignorance
If thou wouldest.-John 4.10


We may be surrounded with
thousand blessings and yet be Who'll
lv unaware of their presence and
our possibilities. We are often I'M
mindful of the wonderful and re-
markable forces that lie around us
and for a want of knowledge of
them miss untold blessings and OPP
portunites for service and profit.
For years two brothers had eked
out a mere existence on barren
farm in the far West. They were
disguised with results. They sat one
day upon a rock on their farm dis
cussing conditions and prospects. A
stranger appears and offers to pur-
chase the farm a proposition which
they readily accepted. Within few
months the new owner discovered
veins of the purest gold under the
very rock upon which they sat and
consummated the sale. of which they
considered, their worthless property.
The sick may drag out wretehed
and miserable existence while rem
edy that would restore health and
vigor lies unrecognized at the very
door. There are mighty forces all
around US which if known and har-
messed would revolutionize human
life, reconstruct society and make
the world veritable Paradise. Many
people pass through life in daily
touch and contact with those things
which would make all eternity differ
ent to them and yet because of ig-
norance the thin veil continues to
hide from them their true blessed
ness. Well mighp the poet declare
DAILY, with souls that cringe and
plot,
We Sinais climb but know it not. "
Ignorance is Fatal To Progress
Christ said to the woman: "If
who it is that saith to thee, Give me
to drink, thou wouldst have asked
of him and he would have given thee
living water" The tragedy of her
life was in her ignorance and so II
is with all. She had no conception
of Gods gift, desired no higher life
than that she was living because OF
her ignorance. Ignorance stultifies
ignorance impedes progress. Where
| ignorance reigns there can be no ad
vance. 1t is knowledge it is intel
ligence, it is light that sets us free
and opens up the highway to better
things. 1t is not the truth itself thai
sets us free, but it is rather tn,
knowledge of the truth accompan
led by willingness to apply it t,
our lives that makes US free. w
must know, we must understand. lg
norance binds, knowledge enamel
pates. There is no slavery like tina
of ignorance.
Let knowledge grow from more t.
more,
But more of reverence in US dwell
That mind and soul according well
May make one music as before
But, vaster.

"White Mans Long House"
(New York Times.)

(NeW YorK LlmeSJ
 In the last few decades cities have branched out into activities never dreamed of by the fathers. Municipal auditoriums an example. Since the war they have sprung up all over the country. A book has been written about them, Publication
 Number 21 of the Municipal Administration Service. It is to be commended to those charged with the management of these sometimes just little whitsh civic elephants and to the larger circle of men and women who believe that under proper control they can be made to pull a heavy community Ioao
 They vary greatly. AS the author of the pamphlet points out, municipal auditorium" may mean big room with platform at one end and lot of uncomfortable seats It may mean park pavilion with roof and open sides, or large opera house, or a the public market where the Eks and Masons hold their public functions or IL may mean the comfortable building where the high
 school gives it's plays the fremen hold their annual ball the visiting road show has it's one-night stand, the Memorial Day orator holds forth, the womens club has it's lectures, and the Governor is notified of his renomnation
 You can't tell by the looks of frog how far he is going to jump nor by the size of city how big an auditorium 1t is going to build Lakeland, Fla, with less than 10000 people, has a million dollar auditorium. built in 1928. Atlantic City has
 the biggest municipal auditorium in the world It cost Sl5,000000 and will seat 4l000 people. It IS designed for visiting Elks and Moose and Shrners and members of the National Electric Light Asso- caton and similar species in whom the herd instinct is strong The taxpayers grumble just bit, but they would be sienced if Mayor Bacharach could
 hook national convention next year. If the Demo- crats dip in the Pacific, why shouldn't the Repub- Hcans bask in the Atlantic? It would make nice cmatoogcal issue, and they wouldn't have to pick la Vice President again just to escape the heat as they did in Chicago not so long ago.
 The auditoriums don't all make money. Here and there city reports surplus. San Francisco turned in a balance of $55OO0 last year Raton N M (population 6000) leased it's hall to theatre company at a fee of 5000 year, enough to cover the upkeep of the hall itself and the municipal building of which it is part, and recoup the entire investment in eight years The City Council had proudly reserved three days a year on which the theatre company relinquishes its rights for various public purposes should they arise' Fargo N D.. is trifle civic in it's ratio Its hall is leased
 to private company with a reservation of fifty days year for public functions. But these the glowing exceptions. Most of their sister cities have difficulty making their auditorium accounts balance The author concludes that public building of this character which is attractive and frequently used as the social, civic and cultural center of the town
 deserves recognized place the debit side of the
 financial ledger"

Jungle Interest.
(New York Herald Tribune.)


 If the current flood of books and narratives of world will soon become jungle-minded long time ago Rudyard Kipling wrote his Jungle Book" but its characters wild animals and not men Con- noisseurs of junges, like William Beebe and Car vath Wells, have been writing and featuring for years about the great forests of the tropics, but with only casual attention the part of the public The publication of Trader Horn and the appear ance of series of remarkable animal movies filmed in Africa and the East Indies have aroused in the nation real interest in the vast wooded wilderness of equatorial lands. The tales of a number of amateur explorers who have lately returned from the interior of South America have therefore found receptive audience that would have been lacking a few days ago, when the public attention was turned toward the treeess wastes of the Sahara with its sheiks and foreign legionnares
 Though mans technique for meeting the chal- enge of it's perls and it's hardships has improved the jungle itself remains changeless, like the sea It is still merciless to all who enter it and have not learned by long experience its dark ways. And these usually inarticulate men, like the rubber gathers of the Amazon Valley, who if they could tell their stories would make the narratives of the tenderfoot traveller seem as pallid as old wives tales.
 Its passive cruelty to him who is stranger to it's grim secrets was shown recently in the suffer- ngs of the Italian aviators who crashed into the unhosptable depths of the wild country that lies to the west of Pauo in Brazil. One of the pair finally committed suicide from despair and his companion was only ghost of himself when he found after wandering for thirteen days through it's tracklass For, in spite of the exuberance of nature in the tropics, the jungle may withhold from the visitors in it's confines both food and drink To the uninitiated its ruthless ness is impersonal, but all the more inexorable

CALIFORNIAN TALKS STRAIGHT.

Congressman Albert Edward Carter of Oakland California, is authority on harbors and water ways He planned the harbor development for tht east side of San Francisco Bay He President of the Pacific Coast Association of Port Authorities and is still Vice-President of that organization He is member of the Rivers and Harbors Committed in the National House Of Representatives. He is only fifty and is serving his fourth term in Con- gress He is a Westerner, born, reared and educated in California He has just completed forty days trip through Alaska
 This brief recital ought to make it plain that MT Carter will have great influence in Congress regarding Alaska waterways and harbors. When he said, therefore that he will favor judging the need for harbor improvement in Alaska more from the standpoint of aiding development than from actual service to developed it is not too much to say that will be the policy of Congress. He also declared that Congress ought to be liberal in con- sdering the navigation needs of Alaska
 Considering this attitude it was not strange that MT. Carter disapproved of the recent increase in freight and passenger rates on the Alaska Railroad nor that he said
 I wasn't member of Congress when the
 construction of the road authorized and
 appropriations made for it. but I have
 doubt at that time, in the debates on the
 subject, the prediction made that de-
 ficit would occur for a great many years.
 No similar road ever built through an
 unsettled and undeveloped country that did
 not have it's serious financial difficulties,
 and the Alaska Railroad is exception.
 That feature should not discourage Con
 gress, nor cause the defeat of the purpose
 for which it was undoubtedly constructed
 namely to develop the Territory
 sure that those who responsible for it's
 existence, had nothing in mind but to build
 it as aid to development.
 It cannot be this if it is operated solely
 to avoid deficit, without regard for the
 economics to the industries and population
 to which it renders service
