have met a number of the
Bishops of the Methodist persua-
sion. Men of high character and
attachments but men so fully alive
to the Importance of their high of
flee as to make all but impossible
their consideration as just men.
Not so this Bishop. A man every

but who in addition impresses as a
real man, with the burden of his
Christianity deeply impressed upon
him. When he came from the pull
pit at one of the sessions, as the
women were seeking financial aid in
one of their projects-he came
down from the rostrum, as any Of
the ordinary men of the congrega-
ton might have done-and helped
them raise the largest offering this
effort had ever produced.

a prominent character in this con-

hold the high character set by this

By W. M. Smith
Editor.

The great A. M. E. Conference in
the Mill City is over. During its
session our paper has endeavored
and I believe successfully, to give
the highlights of its gatherings. To
me there is so much of interesting
matter that a newspaper can
Nscarcely mention, so much that
feel is deserving of more than just
a mention, if there shall be pre-
served for future guidance the
beneficial things touched upon that
hesitate to attempt to chronicle
it.
One of the things which every
one seems to take for granted and
no one seems to find it necessary to
comment upon is the excellent ush-
er service.
Without the effective service of
the men and women of this division
the meetings of the week would
have been much less satisfying. I
feel that when we stop to think of
it every one will wish to join me
In thanks to Mrs. Gertrude Banks
and her group for as efficient serv-
ice as ever given by any church
gathering anywhere.
l believe every one who attended
these sessions will join me in
hearty praise of the music rendered
at every session with especial en-
phasis upon the musical efforts of
the several choirs on Sunday at the
First Presbyterian Church.
One of the things worthy of
mentioning, so far as nv own
knowledge goes, is that all of the
excellent choirs heard during these
sessions were directed by women.
One other fact in connection with
the music given is that many of the
churches not directly connected
with the session and not even con-
nected with the conference assisted
as heartily as the choirs that had
such connection. Thus we find the
Baptists were represented by Zion
choir singing under the direction of
Mrs. Julia Magee, the Border M. E.
under Mr.. Clarence Underwood.
Both of these organizations gave of
their best and were by no means
the least of the singing groups rep
resented. 80
There was also the very fine
music of the choirs of the Metho-
dists themselves, directed by Mrs.
Mabel M. Lewis of st. Paul and
Mrs. Alyce Stewart of the Mime
apolis entertaining church. Just
now am reminded that there was
choir directed by a man, the Way
man choir was led by Mr.. B. L.
Greer and they gave a good ac-
count of themselves.
But / must pass on and saw a
word about the men. I wish I might
pay my respects to the men who
really gave to this conference the
need of praise it justly merited.
There were men who deserve all
that could commercially be said
and there were men not so fully in
the limelight, who only did their
duty, but did it fully and uncom-
plainingly and helped thereby to
make this gathering the best ever.
Speaking of the men prominent
in this convention it is difficult to
pass by the most important and
the most prominent. of them all
Bishop J. A. Gregg. One does not
usually speak so Familiarity of such
character. But his greatness of
character and achievement so clear

Poetic Thoughts
When Mother Is Sick
BY MORRIS GIBBS, Sr.

When Mothers sick, home is not the same
No word can describe it or give it name
Try as we may, her routine to carry thru
It's not the same all know to be true
The days are long and nights are dreary
For maybe you have to be watchfu and weary
But in this kindly and ceaseless work of love
Things must go and fit like glove
Extra work for each member of the family
Falls some chore of mothers, but happily
Therere done with the single thought
That they remember what they were taught
Responsibility comes to early in life
With children it helps, make good husband or wife
The home training is handy in all they do, IS
When Mother is sick her worries should be few
To be helpful to Mother when she is sick
Proves that we can get kick,
Out of doing the things she's lovingly shown
Which comes to children when there're half grown
Family love daily be shown
In gratitude and it's best known
That this acknowledgment firmly proves
We are cognzant that love still rules
