Miss Cioru Watson
Speaks At B P w
Club Meeting

Miss Clara Watson was the inter
esting speaker at the luncheon meet
ing last Tuesday of the Lexington
Business and Professional Woman's
Club at the Hotel.
The program on International Re-
lations was in charge of Miss Dor
othy McBee who presented the
speaker.
Miss Watson gave an interesting
discussion of women whose influen-
ce has been international in scope.
She first discussed Mrs Pandit, sister
of Nehru, leader of the Nationalist
movement in India. Mrs. Pandit is
the only woman who heads a deleg-
alton to the United Nations Assem-
bly,.
DR.. Lise Neither, of Austria, ply
sicist and mathematician, is one of
the persons who helped discover
how to release radioactivity in the
atom. AS a result of this we
have the atomic bomb, she said.
Queen Wilhemina has been descr-
ibed as the "only king in Europe" by
various people, Miss Watson stated.
Her long reign and liberal regime
has been responsible for a great
measure of progress enjoyed by the
people of her empire. the speaker
said.
Lady Nancy Aston, the first wo-
man to serve in the British House
of Commons, is from the famous
Langhorn family and American
born. Lady Aston has been respon-
sible for much progress for women
since becoming a member of the
British House of Commons, Miss
Watson stated. She helped secure
widows pensions, equal guardian
ship Of children for women and
many other advantages.
For the American woman Miss
Watson discussed the contribution
made by Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait
who was chiefly responsible for OBJ
tanning woman's suffrage in this
country. She told of her early life
and education.
Her address was most instructive
and enjoyed by a splendid attend
ance.
The lovely voice of Mrs. Brady
Cole was heard in several numbers
depicting music of countries which
Miss Watson discussed. Mrs. Cole
accompanied at the piano by
Mrs. c. 0. Povall.

CURRENT COMMENT
By Henry Willis

Friday Night at Goodman there
will be played as good game Of foot
ball as you could ever hope to see.
In their last home game of the year
the Bulldogs will entertain the
Kinds County Eagles who have moi
been beaten this season and tied on
ly once. With Z wins and l tie they
top the Junior Colleges. Jones Co
unity Bobcats with 6 wins, 2 ties,
are second. If the Bulldogs a give
the Eagles a drubbing they will
mess up the standing considerably.
They will "be out" to do exactly
that.

Summit and handed the Pike Coun-
ty boys a 27-6 licking, using their
End stringers much of the time to
allow their injured LIST stringers to
recuperate for the game with the
Eagles Friday night of this week.
Our boys played heads up ball with
an alert line, fast and shifty backs,
an accurate passer and excellent e
ceivers, an assortment of well exec
uted surprise plays. You may see as
good a game at Goodman as you a
at Baton Rouge or Memphis.

1t Seems FoirlY Sure that the Nat
ional Guard will be enlarged and
made a good deal more efficient. 1t
Is believed that some form of draft
will be found necessary and that
service in the National Guard, the
r. 0. T. c. and the like, win count
as military service. Time in the
Guard will be time well spent.
Should a new war come spite our
best efforts, should another Pearl
Harbor happen, the Guard boys,
next to the regulars would know
best how to take care Of themselves
in camp, on the march, in battle,
and thus be more likely to survive
least likely to suffer from disease
or wounds. From every point of view
Guard service is an advantage for
the men of proper age.

in esteem by his superior officers
and liked by his men. An experien-

satisfied the men are.
The Increased PGY of Guord Sol

to a Battery from a money stand

in securing the necessary enlist

has come the present Galbraith
A. M. E. Zion Church, Sixth between
L and M streets NV. The present
pastor is the Rev. James L. White
with the Rev. William J. King, a
student at the Howard University
School of Religion, as assistant.
In 1852 the mission was reorgan-
lied under the leadership of the
Rev. R. H. G. Dyson.
The first building consisted Of
one room, which was used for Sun.
day school and preaching services
on Sunday and as a day school
taught by Miss Martha Ross, or
weekdays. The rapid growth of the
congregation necessitated an ex.
pansion and Mr.. Payne erected tents
in the rear of the church. Mr.
Payne later built another house O
two stories.
In the fall of 1853 a site wa:
purchased on L between Fourth
and Fifth streets NV. The corner.
stone was laid later that year b.

toward God.
One of the most pictorial Incl
dents in the New Testament is the
story of the Jericho tax-collector,
zaccheus, made rich by graft. Even
in the breast of money grabber
dwell spiritual questions. zaccheus
was concerned over the teachings
of Jesus, and determined to see
Him when He came. to town.
Ever alert for signs of spiritual
yearning, Jesus saw the chief pub
llcan in his undignifed role, as he
roasted in a sycamore tree. To the
mob's amazement, He singled him
out with "Zaccheus, make haste and
come down; for today I must abide
in thy house"
The tax collector was converted
He gave proof of his discipleship
by promising half of his goods to
the poor, and fourfold restitution
of all of his graft.
Gathering the whole incident up
into one statement of principle,
which applies alike to millionaire
and pauper, Jesus declared, The
