A LETTER
Contributed py Mrs. L. !. S. Rogers

A sweet little baby brother
Had come to live with Flo,
And she wanted it brought to the
table,
That it might eat and grow.
1T must wait for awhile" saids
grandma,
In answer to her plea;
For little thing that hasn't teeth
can't eat like you and me-"
Why hasn't it got teeth, grandma?"
Asked Flo, in great surprise,
"Oh. my! but isn't it funny?
No teeth, but nose and eyes.
| s'pOse after thinking gravely,
They must have been forgot.
Can't we buy some like grandpa's?
I'd like to know why not"
That afternoon to the corner,
With paper and pen and ink,
Went Flo, saying: Don't talk to me,
If you do it'll tuTb me think.
I'm writing letter, grandma,
To send away tonight,
An cause it's very 'portant
want to get it right"
At last the letter was finished,
A wonderful thing to see,
And directed to God in Heaven"
please read it over to me-"
Said little Flo to grandma,
ITO see if it's right, you know"
And here is the letter written
To God by little Flo:
Dear God-The baby you brought us
Is awful nice and sweet,
But cause you forgot his toofies
The poor little thing can't eat;
That's why I'm writing this letter,
A purpose to let you know;
Please come and finish the baby.
That's all. From little Flo"

.D.C.EVANGEL|ST
D|ESAT Sd

Death has removed from the
scene of Washington's religious &C.
tivities one of it's most colorful and
picturesque figures.
The Rev. Simon P. w. Drew,
colored evangelist. died suddenly
of indigestion at his home, 1900
block Church st. N. w.
Rev. Drew was so years old
and for more than a quarter of
century his whirlwind evan
gelism had been thorn in the
side of evil-doers. In recent years
age somewhat slowed his activi-
ties, but there was much of the
old fire always in evidence when
his voice was raised in the pulpit
of his church, the Cosmopolitan
Baptist, at 1887 Seventh st.
Probably the exploit that
brought him most publicity in
the closing years of his life was
his challenge to debate Elder
Michaux, Father Divine and other
colored clergymen on the ques-
ton whether a person bitten by
a rattlesnake could survive with
out medical attention, depending
on faith to save his life.
The debate never took place be.
cause Elder Michaux and the
others challenged declined to pay
it any attention.
The Rev. Drew came to Wash.
ington in 1908, and established
the Cosmopolitan Baptist Church
on N Street between Ninth and
Tenth Sts., N. w. Three years ago
the church building was sold and
the congregation was reestab-
iiShed at 1887 Seventh Street. For
many years he operated the
White Cross Free Labor Bureau,
assisted by committee sponsored
by the late Mrs. John B. Hender'
son,

by two members of the Districts

There had been rumors Mr..

The depredations of mice have
been added to the pests that af
flict orchardists. During the
winter the mice burrow into the
soil and gnaw the bark from the
tree roots, impairing the health
of the trees and sometimes killing
them. One orchardist in this

Regarding the retirement fund.-
which was the subject of consider
able controversy this summer when
E. Claude Babcock, president OF

The Congress for the past few
years has been appropriating $21:'

by the conference members that
unless this allotment is Substantlal'
