Calvary Baptist church Is proud
OF its record OF. always encourage
ing youth. Calvary is also proud
of the fact that Mrs. Lille Bar
row, Joe Louis mother. is a faith
full member. and the church mem
bers like to feel that the Christian
influence of Calvary Baptist Is re-
sponsible in some small degree for
the formation OF the fine Christian
gentleman that Joe Louis, the
Brown Bomber, has proved him
self to be.
The Rev. ]. II. Mastin. pastor OF
Calvary church. said during the
service last Sunday: II always en-
courage the youth OF the race.
This has been a cardinal principle
in all Baptist churches, and more
especially because l personally
realize that the youth Of today will
become the men OF responsibility
tomorrow. They must be encour-
aged TO become what we want them
10 be-worthy men and women OF
our race"
In furtherance of this policy, the
pastor introduced splendid young
singer. OF Monroe, Mich. Miss
Aquareitta White not yet twenty
years Of age. She is the daughter
OF the Rev. J. w. White, a Gospel
minister. and was accompanied at
the piano by her sister, Miss An
nette White. The singer sang
beautifully. with all the confidence
and sweetness OF an experienced
concert artist. Miss White is still
pursuing her studies. The congre-
CATION gave her a nice collection at
the end of the service.
The Rev. Mr.. Mastin likewise
called on Miss Banks for a song
and she rendered lovely number.
Calvary Baptist church is in the
midst OF a mortgage redemption
drive. and all the energies Of the
congregation are drafted into this
effort. Calvary has occupied Its
present fine edifice for seventeen
years, and the Rev. Mr.. Mastin has
been its progressive pastor for ev-
cry minute OF that time.
The text OF the sermon Sunday,
was taken from l Kings $50, Give
therefore thy servant an under
standing heart, TO judge thy peo-
pie. that ! may discern between
good and bad
The speaker said In part:
"Solomon's request for an under
standing heart, was significant.
The heart is the center of life.
Physically. when the heart stops.
we cease to be. But the heart has
always had a deeper and broader
meaning. II represents the strong
est forces In life. by which men and
women are moved. The hearts OF
men influence the thoughts OF
men. II the heart inclineth TO the
right direction. the life and efforts
OF the individual will move in the
right direction
Continuing his discourse the
Rev. Mr.. Mastin declared
when God appeared TO Solomon
in a dream and asked what gift he
desired. Solomon answered: Give
, thy servant an understanding
heart and according to verse Q
OF the same chapter Of Kings, the
speech pleased the Lord. that Sol
ONION had asked OF him this thing.

our future than many parents be-
lieve. II determines our outlook
on life. Be careful what you say
in the presence OF children. They
can remember and think much ear
lier than you give them credit for.
II what surrounds children Is
good, then their hearts will incline
towards good.
Il can remember the things that
passed In my life. when was only
three years OF age, down In Arkan-
sas. l was raised In a log cabin.
and climbed from that lowly begin
ming TO my present position. In
Arkansas. In 1872. the Negro had
great political power and held
many responsible positions in that
state. In that year. large influx
OF kluxers came into Arkansas
from Tennessee. Those night riders
drove my people from power and
position and attempted to drive
them into slavery again.
"My uncle took me on horse
with him and we left that coun-
try. Many Negro people were driv-
en- out, but l have never ceased to
pray for these evil doors who used
their power to make others suf-
fer. Such men have not under
standing hearts. Their hearts.
warped by hatred and race pref
udice, incline to evil and injus-
tice. They use all the power they
can seize to make other people
suffer unjustly. Their hearts are
hardened and they need our pray
ers. There are many such people
still in the world today.
Continuing. the speaker said:
IF we look at Solomon's child
hood. we see him In the company
OF his father. David. the ruler OF
Israel. who sang songs of praise to
God. When the time came for Sol
onion TO ascend TO the throne OF
his father. and as he was prepar-
ing to occupy the position Of king.
II came within his power to OBJ
tain anything he might desire. He
did not ask for riches; he did not
ask for the lives of. his enemies
but for an understanding heart.
In concluding his sermon, the
Rev. Mr.. Mastfn stated:
when you take your petition to
God. place yourself in the right po-
sition to make your prayer heard.
Examine yourself and ask for the
things suitable for your position
and need. In order 10 dial a par
tciular station. you must know the
wave length OF that station, and
then tune in on 1t. So II Is with
God Those who know their hearts
and have faith. can tune into the
station where God dwells. You
would not go 10 bar room 10
communicate with God. You would
not got TO a gambling house to get
in touch with God. Those who have
understanding hearts will know
their life's purpose and will COM
municate with God for His help in
carrying out those things. Ask
God for a clean heart. that will
make you a good neighbor. Ask
God for understanding hearts. that
will make of you good wives, good
husbands, and good parents. Ask
for understanding hearts that will
! prevent you from being always
broke, when you are earning good
money; and that will regenerate in
you love for the truth and loyalty
to Jesus Christ"

On July 10 the memory Of the
great ST. Vincent de Paul Il
brought to attention. This shep-

born in 1876 and In his youth was
distinguished by an intense love
for the poor. When still a young
priest he fell into the hands ci
Turkish pirates who carried him
to Africa. where he preached and
lived for the poor, bringing them
spiritual and material comforts.
He finally was returned 10 France,
where he became a parish priest
and also chaplain OF the galley
slaves and later Spiritual Director
OF the Visitation nuns. For the our
pose OF preaching the Gospel 10
the country folk who were iso-
lated from the great centers Of
business he organized Religious
Order OF men. known as Priests Of
the Missions OF Lazarisis. This
religious order still exists today
and the Vincentian Fathers con-
tinue the work OF their founder
throughout the world.

age OF SIS and Pope Leo XIII pro-
claimed him special patron Of all
works OF Charity.
