all that partook of it were surely
blessed, for these are transmittable
to your bodies to become part of it.
Although Father Divine was not
there in person, He was there in
spirit, for the rooms were so filed
with His peace and harmony and
love that all could express the
brotherhood of man. Some, per-
haps, were wondering how so much
food could be served at one meal,
but as this is the expression of the
table of the Lord, the table that
Jesus and David and Solomon
spoke about, it was an expression
of the full and aplenty of all good
things that are in the storehouse of
God for all those that live the life
and teachings of Christ Jesus.
The banquet was served as it is
served at Father Divine's personal
table in New York City, the food
being passed from the kitchen to
one sitting next to where Father
Divine's place had been set, for, al
though He is in New York City,
in person, His spirit and mind were
there in His Person. Instead, the
food being in separate bowls or
platters, one for each side of the
table, was gently touched to the
cup at Father Divine's place so as
to receive the blessing of the Holy
Spirit which in turn is transmitted
to those that partake of the ma
terial food that their bodies may be
bathed in the spirit of perfection
and health and peace, for as the
spirit is, so shall the bodies of man
kind be. AS He is, He wants all to
be.
Two men from radio station
WTCN were there as visitors and
gave short talks.
Testimonies and songs of praise
for the wonderful works of Father
Divine, which were so uplifting and
created such an atmosphere of
harmony and peace that all felt the
at-one-ment with each other and
the expression of divine love. A
message of Father Divine's was
read from the Spoken Word maya
zine.
The meeting and banquet were
held at 1916 Fourth Ave. So.

in the 1905. Everything that
Jesus said or did was a parable
for this dispensation. The death,
apparently, the Resurrection, the
Ascension, coming through the
closed door, the Baptism, His Life,
His Teachings. Jesus suffered
muchly, that is why He said,
"Glorify Me with the glory had
with Thee before the world was.
He went back to the Father or in
to the bosom of His Father, where
no harm or minds can come nigh
Him. He is in the bosom of His
Father, Who we know that it is
our beloved Father, Father Divine,
the Father that was and is in
Jesus, the Father that is in you
and me and in millions lying dor
mant, waiting to be awakened by
the spirit of Father Divine, and
then you have the Father and the
Son and the Holy Ghost in you,
and as you live according to the
life and teachings of Him, you will
bring the Christ in you into obser-
walton so all can see by your works.

CAMPHOR M. E

Camphor Memorial M. E. Church
was honored with the presence of
DR.. Glenn Clark of Manchester
College at the Sunday night serv-
ices October 20, 1885. DR.. Clark
made an appeal to the colored
people for group prayers as a
means of solving the economic con-
ditions now existing throughout
the world. His subject was what
Can the Negro Do to Better His
Economic Condition 2"
Camphor Memorial M. E. Church
is progressing daily with it's indus
trial program. Already the sew
ing department is manufacturing
aprons, dresses, shirts, repairing
clothes for the poor, and is giving
employment to several women. The
shoe department is turning out
first class work with constant in
crease Of trade.
At the present time, Shokumbi's
Laboratories, under the able super
vision of DR.. S. P. Shokumbi, mas
ter chemist, is turning out ink of
all kinds The laboratory, which
is still under construction, is con-
nected with Camphor church and is
supplying Offices, business insti-

~. Daniel lnterprets the Writing
wv. lT-2S).
l. Daniels address to the king
(vv. 17-2D.
a. He brushes aside his promised
gifts ". 10. He would not have
his speech limited by the kings gift.
It required great strength of char
acter and courage to speak thus in
the presence Of a great king. He
knew that this was no time for
bribery. He knew that those would
be the last words ever to fall on
the poor sinners ears.
b. He reviewed before Belshaz-
Ear the history of Nebuchadnezzar
wv. 1929. He showed clearly that
Belshazzar should have profited by
the experiences Of his father.
2. The Interpretation of the writ
ing wv. 1929.
a. "Mene" means numbered" ".
26). God hath numbered the king
dom and finished It."
b. "Tekel" means weighed" ".
27). "Thou art weighed in the bal
ances and art found wanting"
c. "PereS" means divided" ".
2S). "The kingdom Is divided, and
given to the Modes and Persians."
w. The Judgment Executed wv.
29-3D.
So rapidly did the divine judg-
ment fall that Belshazzar was slain
and Darius the Median took the
kingdom that same night. The Chal-
dean dynasty ended with Belshaz-
Ear. We may, therefore, interpret
this whole scene as pointing to the
conditions at the close of the time
of the Gentiles, and as adumbrat-
ing their prevailing conditions. Let
US note:
1. The stupidity Of men. Belshaz-
Ear, like people today, did not learn
by example. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS fate
should have deferred Belshazzar
from such folly. The driftwood of
wrecked humanity cast upon the
shores of time seem to do little good
to posterity.
2. The magnificent splendor. This
great feast was characterized by
pomp, display and parade.
3. Luxury. The famous hanging
gardens Of Babylon were a note
worthy example. Signs Of luxury
abound today on every hand.
A. The RIGHTEOUSNESS Of the king
with his many wives and concu-
bines. Llcentiousness is likewise no
torlously prevalent today.
5. Blasphemous sacrilege. The
sacrilege Of this day may be in
excess of that of Belshazzar's day
and expresses itself in
a. A profession of religion for
pecuniary gain, social and political
preferment.
b. The use of the pulpit Of the
Christian ministry for notoriety and
even for the propagation of false
doctrine.
C. Uniting with the church and
attendance at the Lords table so as
to cover up secret sins.
d. The use Of the Word of God
to give point to joke.
e. Denying that the Bible Is Gods
Word, making it a book of errors,
myths and legends.
I. Sneering at the virgin birth,
repudiating Christ's deity and set
ting aside his vicarious atonement.
6. Drunken carousals. The hand
writing on the wall. His judgments
shall eventually fall Conditions In
the world indicate that the time is

There is no disposition on the part

heckle or ridicule motorists displaying
the pledge who may get into traffic

FORGOTTEN MEN OF
BUTLER SPEND NIGHT
IN CITY PRISON CELL

Seven pledges of a Butler Uni
versity fraternity spent a cold
ght in the cell for the insane at
City Prison last night because the
police simply forgot that the boys
had been locked in.
With some embarrassment the
pledges asked the captain late yes
terday to help them find rare
variety of goldfish, a black cat,
with certain individualistic mark
ings, and several other articles
which whimsical upperclassmen
had asked for.
Unable to obtain these, the
pledges asked to be placed in Jail
for a few hours. The police were
only too glad to be able to so &C
commodate the boys.
However, since the pledges
names were not placed on the
slate, no one remembered their
plight until 5:45 this morning.
The insane cell furnishes no lux
uries to its inmates. If the boys
slept at all, it was on the floor,
because there are no beds in the
cell.
