Achievements OF
American Negro

C1nclnnau, OcC. IL. - making
plea for justice to the American
Negro, Rev. DR.. Robert w. Patton,
Director of the American Church
Institute for Negroes, cited before
the General Convention of the
Protestant Episcopal Church
twelve achievements Of the Negro
in America:
1. From a population of about a
million in 1900 he has in
creased to twelve million.
2. The Negro worker is an indis-
pensable part of American
agriculture and industry.
8. His labor for the most part
has built the economic empires
of cotton, sugar cane and to-
bacco.
4. He furnishes nearly ten per
cent of American bread win
ners, including about the same
percentage of farm labor.
5. Emancipated in 1866 with
scarcely any property at all,
Negroes today operate $4,000
business establishments.
6. Having scarcely any money at
all when they were freed, they
annually earn and buy $4,5OO,-
100000 worth of goods.
7. They have $2O6,OOO,OOO worth
of church property and spend
$4S,OOO,O0O annually to main
tain their religious enterprises.
8. In he World War 10000 Ne
groes went to France and
many gave their lives that de-
mocracy might live.
9. Negroes are members of IL
State Legislatures and Negro
judges are on the bench In
several states. Twenty-Five
Negroes have sat in the United
States Congress.
10. One hundred and sixteen Ne
groes are members of Phi
Beta Kappa. Over sixty have
won the degree of Doctor of
Philosophy and ninety-seven

IL. Frederick Douglas and Booker
T. Washington were orators OF
the first order; George w.
Carver is one of Americas
greatest chemists; Paul Laur-
ence Dunbar, the poet, and
Roland Hayes, with his glori-

any race might be proud.
IL. They have created the i'm
mortal music of the Negro

conspicuous examples of great
achievement by Negroes represent
only that "sman percentage of the
race who have been accorded OPP

whole"

The 'Sam Brown Belt

The ''Sam Brown" belt is named
after its originator, Gen. Sir Samuel
Joseph Browne, a most gallant Eng
lish officer prominent in the early
Indian campaign and the Indian
mutiny. General Browne served in
India throughout the great Indian
mutiny and Sepoy war and lost an
arm at the battle Of Seeporah, which
really cost him his life. It was the
loss of the arm which caused him to
devise new sort Of saber which
was later generally adopted by the
British army and also by other mil
itary forces.

Two reasons are gwen by our
Lord for the '.just" of verse 2:
Cd The Kingdom of God is spir-
itual kingdom, and cannot be en-
tered by way Of our human nature;
and 60 ''That which is born Of the
flesh is flesh" and is radically and
essentially bad. To learn why the
flesh is bad read jeremiah 1928,
and Galatians 5:19-21. Scripture on
this point is almost Numerically
opposed to much Of the teachings In
our schools and colleges. But Gods
Word is right; let us follow it.
II. What? wv. 8-13.
The new birth is a divine mys-
terry, not fathomable by human
reason. Those who insist that all
spiritual truth be put through the
little norm of their intelligence will
never understand it or receive its
blessing. The striking illustration
Of the ife-giving and energizing
wind used by our Lord is most il
Eliminating. Wind is unseen, but
the results of its movement are evil
dent. Even so the spiritual rebirth
of men is an enigma to the worldly
man, but even he can see its re-
suits in cody living.
III. How? wv. 14-17.)
Just as there was healing and life
in a look at the uplifted serpent
(Nurn. 21:8), so there is life for a
look at the Crucified One. Faith re-
ceives Gods perfect provision for
sin.
Verse 16 may well be regarded
as the greatest sentence in the
greatest Book in the world. It
presents the whole plan Of saliva
tion-its source, its ground, its re-
cipients, its condition, and its re-
suit.
This glorious salvation is for all
men - "whosoever' - but some
reject it. Notice that God does not
condemn them. Their own evil
works and desires condemn them
wv. 1920. God in his grace is
ready and willing to save, but men
love darkness rather than light"
for their works are evil.

Lesson for January 10
NEW LIFE IN CHRIST

LESSON TEXT-John SILT.
GOLDEN TEXT-Verily, verify, say
unto thee, Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom Of Cod
John 3:3.
PRIMARY ToPIc-Jesus Answering a
Mans Question.
JUNIOR TOPIC-The Most Important
Question.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP.
IC-How the Christian Life Begins.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP.
IC-New Life in Christ.
The only entrance into the Chris
tan life is by the door of the new
birth. Regeneration is the act Of
God whereby the divine nature is
impaired to the believing sinner
and he becomes the child Of God.
He who has not entered by this way
has not entered at all. He is still
dead in trespasses and sins, with
out God and without hope (Eph.
81, 12.
Men are seeking to enter the
household of God by almost any
other culture, reform, char
acter building-and are neglecting
Gods way. This lesson should there
fore be studied and taught with
earnest prayer that this foundation
truth may lay hold upon the hearts
of the hearers of the Word. Let no
one who is not born again attempt
to teach it to others, lest the blind
attempt to lead the blind, and both
fall into the ditch duke $3.50.
The coming of Nicodemus to our
Lord took place at the time when
he was in Jerusalem for the Pass
over. Jesus had chosen six Of his
disciples, had been at Cana Of Gal
lice, where he performed his first
miracle, and had made brief visit
to Capernaum, after which he came
to Jerusalem for the feast. In high
and holy indignation he had driven
the money changers out Of the tenn
pie. The Pharisees who looked for
the coming of the Messiah as a
secular conqueror wondered at this
new spiritual leader. It was prob
ably as much on their behalf as his
own that Nicodemus came to in
quire of Jesus. In answering his
questions Jesus reveals the neceS-
sity, the nature, and the method Of
egeneration-in other words, the
Why, What, and How Of the New
Birth.
1. Why? wv. I'D
Jesus was not unduly impressed
by the dignity and high station Of
his visitor, nor by the visitors cour-
teous acknowledgment Of his own
position as great teacher. With
decisive holiness Jesus declares
that this man, a cultured and dis
tinguished ruler Of the Jews, must
be born again, If he is to see the
kingdom of God. A..
God is no respecter Of persons.
This "doctor of divinity" must be
born again, just as was the illiterate
fisherman. d. L. Moody once said
that he was thankful it was to such
a man as Nicodemus that Jesus
presented the necessity Of the new
birth-or men would have said that
only the down-and-outer needed to
be saved.
