ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH
THE Friendly Church"
Rev. Il. A. Adams, Pastor

Tho services at 81. John last Sun
day were very good. The attendance
both at Sunday school and church
was not up TO standard as the
weather was SO cold. The spiritual
aspect, however, ran high. Rev. Adj
ans was full Of the spirit. He took
his text from Jer. 9Th chapter and
the 22nd verse. His subject was,
"The Heart of the World is Sick"
Prom this subject he delivered a
very fine message to those whose
hearts and minds were set to re-
eeive it.
The names of the sick members
Of the church were not turned in,
hut the known sick are: Mrs. Mable
Ayant, Miss Grace Speese. Mr.. Geo.
Althouse, who was in an auto ac-
cident. The program of the new adj
ministration shows indications of
much Improvement and an outlook
a fine year for ST. John. As it
lhas been said before, it should be
the desire Of all members and fri
IDS Of St. John to fiji in this pro-
. am some nle e end work to make
mis- a yer # even greater Christi
m WORSHIP at the church. If every
one will do his or her Christian
the financial side of the church
will take care OF itself.
Rev. Adams is very anxious to
have ST. John and its membership
have a clear understanding of how
everything should be carried out
in the AME church. He is very an
xious that the service will show a
fine spiritual as we'll as an intellec-
tual aspect. Let us all join in to
make II what it should be.
Mrs. T. II. Goodwin, was elected
IN the trustee board. She is the
first woman to serve on this board
for quite some time.

Owens is seeking TO combine for
ces that can command action for
the Omaha Negro. His platform

Mr.. Carey is much on the same

statement.
Mr.. Price, an older, wiser more

LEGION
POST FIRST,
It Asserts

COMMERCE, Texas, Q.N.S0.
The Bruce G. Williams Ameri-
can Legion Post, No. /, one +
the most active units in the
country, today was seeking Of
ficial recognition to its claim as
the first legion post established
on American soil.
Recognized twice by national
headquarters for outstanding
service, the post is held in high
esteem by the citizens Of this
little town of 5000.
According to its records, the
post was established on May 8,
1919, after a speech made by
DR.. w. B. DeJernett, Of the A.
E. F. medical corps.
A group of Commerce veterans
were milling about the small de-
pot, awaiting the arrival of the
corpse of Private A. Barrow. who
died at Camp Stewart, when DR..
DeJernett called for attention.
He said:
1--WE who fought in the great
war and survived should form
an organization to honor our
dead, and see that their widows
and children are cared for.
We ought to keep our buddieS
alive, as well as to see that the
disabled and their families do
not suffer-"
The assembled veterans nodded
assent, and the "World War Vet
Grams" was organized two days
later. It's first president was Lieut..
Col. Dudley c. Jernigin and DR..
DeJernett was elected vice presi-
dent.
Later, when other similar Or
ganizationS were formed through
out the nation, and it was decided
to unite into an American Legion,
the Commerce unit became No.
Of the allied Texas groups.
The citizenry and legionnaires
also lay claim that the Commerce
post is responsible for the nation
wide observance Of ArmiStice Day.

ALLEY CLOSING
APPROVED

Approval has been voted by the
District Commissioners to the
closing of a blind" alley in the
square bounded by Twenty-second
and Twenty-third and G and H
Streets Northwest, so that the
property might be sold by the
Alley Dwelling Authority to
George Washington University.
The ADA bought the property
sometime ago and was planning
a model housing project, but
found the property too small for
it's plans. The university then Of
fered to buy the property, but
subjected it's offer Of sale upon
the closing of the alley.
Petition was made by the ADA
for the alley closing and this was
approved following a highway
plan hearing. The alley property
purchased bordered on other pro
perty owned by the university,
which is planning a building ex-
tension on the site. No objection
was made to the alley closing at
the hearing and it was declared
the alley was Of no use to the
District.

One Of the worst things you can
do is kid around with a cold.
The So-called common cold
causes more serious sickness and
more enforced absence from work
than anything else.
It's a mistake to treat a cold
lightly. A cold calls for a cold
treatment and not a "cure-alP. A
cold calls for internal treatment,
for a cold is an internal infection.
One Of the best things you can
take for a cold is Groves Laxa-
tive Bromo Quinine. Your own
doctor will tell you that.
First Of all, Bromo Quinine is a
cold tablet, made expressly for
the treatment of colds.
Secondly it is internal medica-
ton and Of fourfold effect.
Here's what it does:
First, it opens the bowels, an
advisable step in treating a cold.
Second, it checks the infection in
the system.

MURPHY LAUDS
PHILIPPINE
PROGRAMS

Unbounded faith in the future
Of the new Philippine common
wealth was voiced by Governor
elect Frank Murphy, of Michigan
for the last three years United
States high commissioner to the
insular empire, during a brief stor
in washington to arrange for 9
conference with President Roose
velt.
Coupled with his high optimism
that the island government will
be able to work out it's destiny and
eventually become self-Supportins
through the development of an in
tegrated industrial system based
on agriculture, however, he saw 8
need for sympathy and support
from the United States during the
period of economic readjustment
Need U. S. Support
He said:
"Although we have given the
Philippines their political inde-
pendence, we cannot cast them
adrift and expect them to stand
alone economically from the be-
ginning of this new order.
"FOr 30 years we made them
dependent on the United States,
forcing on them an economy Of
our choosing, not theirs.
"It will take time for them to
work out their economic prob
lens now that we are withdraw
ing. 1 believe industries can be
developed which will make the
Philippines largely self-cOn-
tained, but this cannot be
brought about overnight"
Commissioner Murphy said he
was completing an exhaustive re
port covering every phase OF
Philippine development and that
this would be presented to the
Secretary Of War for transmits.
sion to the President when he re.
linquishes his responsibility the
first Of the year.
OF conditions as he saw them,
and the character Of the Philip
pine people, he said:
81 think when the history
Of the Philippines is written it
will be Said-and to our credit
as AmericanS-that our great
contribution to their evolution
was in the field of education.
"The American educational
system, which has penetrated
to the remOteSt fastneSs of the
islands. is being continued by
the Philippine government.
They are also going forward
with the fiscal program organ
lied during the American re-
gime.
TAUGHT ENGLISH
"We have not only taught
them the English language
and given them the essentials
Of elementary education, but
have trained them in santa.
tiOn and hygiene. This has
been of tremendous importance
in giving them a common basis
Of understanding and of life.
''Viewed specifically, 1 can

The Council

There was an extraordinary meeting OF
the Colonial Council yesterday.
Government Secretary Robert Herrick
and Assistant Commissioner of Finance R.
Petersen were present.
Mr. Herrick was in ST. Croix in response
to letter from the Chief medical officer
who finds the institutions under his charge
with supplies to last but few weeks.
When the Budget was passed last June
it was known that the money appropri
ated for maintenance of the institutions
was inadequate The Governor said that the
authorities at Washington were willing to
recommend deficiency appropriation when
it was shown that the deficiency really ex-
listed. Now the Governor is in Washington
comforting with the Director of the Bud
get with the hope that deficiency appro-
priation of 100000 will be passed for
the Virgin Islands.
But something had to be done, and done
quickly so that the hospitals the Insane
and Leper Asylums can remain open and
continue their humanitarian work The
Acting Governor proposed that funds be
transferred from the item of salaries sufi
cient to run the institutions for sixty DAYS
within which time he believed the Con-
gress would appropriate the money. A loan
iIolH PuDnc luuuS was suggested, OUT now
that could be legally done was not clear.
There is the possibility that Congress may
not grant the 100000, but nobody
would entertain the thought that these
important institutions would be forced to
close through lack of funds.
The transfer of funds, therefore, is tenn
porary measure and will not in any way
reduce the salaries of public employees,
since such sums as may be loaned fromgthe
salary box must be refunded at the expira-
ton of sixty days, regardless of how the
money may be raised.
