Chelsea Chisellings
Well folks, our church is still pro-
crossing. Our morning service is
growing in numbers and before very
long it is sincerely hoped that many
more people will attend. Our visiting
minister is still on the job trying to
convince the people of the great need
of saving their souls from everlasting
punishment. However, the road is not
so easy, especially in Chelsea, for
anyone to convince people that they
need to mend their ways. 1t is very
evident to him that some people are
most happy when finding fault. Much
of the suspicion, hypocriticism, an
tagonism, which spoil our fellowshipS
here and make cooperative efforts
difficult, and even impossible, are not
the outcome of sheer perversity but
are an escape from inner conflicts by
the unconscious projection upon others
of our own failures. Persons who are
always finding fault with their neigh
bors should be closely watched for
many times they are the very persons
who are guilty, themselves.
Some people in the community are
still very much worried about whether
or not Peoples Church will become
an A.M.E. Church again. They find
great pleasure in always complaining
but they never find time to come to
church or to contribute one cent of
money to its support. What differ
ence should it be to them whether or
not the church becomes Methodist,
Baptist, Congregationalist, or A.M.E.,
as they contribute little or nothing to
support the same? SucE people need
to think more about their Souls sal
walton and less about what Peoples
Church will become in the future.
On last Wednesday evening at A
Walnut Street, the Adult Education
class had a very hot and lively subject:
ga Little More Listening, and a Little
Less Talking" Many Chelseaites very
much in need of hearing such a sub
ject were absent. Several visitors
were present in the persons of: Mrs.
L. B. Tucker of Philadelphia, Pa, a
close friend of Mrs. Naomi Morris of
Phila. who visited Chelsea last July.
Mrs. Tucker is here visiting her son,
Walton Tucker, and her brother and
his wife, Mr.. and Mrs. Rufus Haskins
of West Medford, who were also pres
ent at the discussion. On Tuesday
evenings, we are having discussions
on the home and the family, parents
and their children. We have here a
great many undisciplined children who
become criminals if not disciplined.
One member of our class said that:
Children today, are rearing their par
ents instead of parents rearing their
children" This can be said about par
ents all over the United States as we'll.
Much of juvenile delinquency and
criminality today rests solidly on the
shoulders of many parents. Thousands
of mothers and fathers should take
the places of their sons and daughters
in houses of correction and penitenti-
aries instead of bewailing the fact that
these children went wrong" Be sure
to come out on Tuesday evenings and
help US discuss these very important
problems of the home.
Last Monday afternoon and evening
the members of the Adult Education
Class were greatly honored to have
Miss Beatrice Durant, Secretary to
the Editor of The Guardian, present
