b. c. Brotherhood
| Doesn't Just Happen
Il Must Be Fought for

BY Gene Russell. Vancouver B. C
Brotherhood is something you
have to work and fight for; It
doesn't Just happen
That was the simple message
brought by Rev +. Benjamin Davis.
D. D., Pastor of seattle's Mt Zion
Baptist Church. to the diners rep
resenting a score of nationalities
in Hotel Georgia, Thursday night.
1t was a unique gathering. Ar
ranged by the Junior Chamber OF
Commerce as feature of their
Brotherhood Week. there were
no invited guests and no head
table.
I'VE who are here tonight do
not merely pay lip service to
brotherhood" said JCC President.
Bert" Morrow.
DR.. Davis said the ultimate
goal OF brotherhood should be that
all people work, play. and live
together.
IN true brotherhood there Is
no place for prejudice. discrim-
nation or scapegoating." he said.
Tolerance IL the lowest form or
relationship between men of OIL
legged good will, for It means con-
descension."
THE world is sitting on a
powder keg and IL we don't solve
the problem of tolerance and dis
elimination today, we need not
worry about tomorrow" So DIR.
Davis warned the Junior Chamber
of Commerce as he continued to
point out the evils of racial dis
elimination. He declared, "The
world Is engaged in battle for
survival in this era of the atom
and H-bomb."
Through the ages three doc

he told the group. these doc
trines are the heart of the conflict

.The third Is that Of white SUI

doctrines Operation Brotherhood
has to defeat.
ITO fight this problem, start
with yourself and confess your own
shortcomings: then you can accom-
plish something. All those inter-
ested in brotherhood must con-
fess their shortcomings, become
acquainted with the basic con-
cepts of brotherhood. We must
also begin to teach the children;
tell them why they should become
part of the world brotherhood

but on his merits" DR.. Davis fur

New Second Church of Christ, Scientist
By Cospar Nonnes

The Second Church Of Christ,
Scientist. congregation will cele-
brate the New Year by opening a
new $250.00 edifice next month
at Pennsylvania and Branch ave-
nues Sc.
The new structure. of Colonial
design, will have an auditorium
seating 400 persons and will be
equipped with a permanent public
address system so that every room
in the building can hear the serv-
ice. The basement will have Sum-
day School, board, literature dis
tribution committee and ushers
rooms. In addition. three rooms
for the two readers and soloist for
the service are situated back of
the rostrum. There is also a bal
cony. Foster Engineering Co., of
Indianapolis, Ind, is the archi-
tect.
This imposing edif1ce is a far
cry from the hall on Twelfth street
NV. where Second Church held
its first services in 1899. Three
years later Mary Baker Eddy,
founder and leader of Christian
Science, recommended Edward
Everett Norwood, one of her stu
dents. as First Reader of Second
Church.
About a year later the congre-
cation moved to Lewis Hall. Four
teenth and P streets NV. In
1904, First Church bought build
ing at Fifteenth and r streets
NV, and a year later invited
the Second Church congregation
to merge. This was done, the two
congregations being consolidated
as First Church of Christ, Scien-
fist, of Washington.
In 1913 the congregation moved
into the present edif1ce at Euclid
street and Columbia road NV.
But within a few months the new
structure proved too small for the
rapidly growing membership, and
1t was decided to ask those mem
bers living in the eastern section
OF Washington to form another
congregation. Since the certificate
Of incorporation of Second
Church was still on file at the
Recorder of Deeds, never having
been Cancelled, the new group took
over the certificate and became
Second Church.
Rooms for worship were OBJ
tanned in the Union Building, on
G street between Sixth and Sew
enth streets NV, and the first
service was held there December
81, 1913. John H. Schaefer and
Miss Ethel Darby served as first
and second readers.
From these rooms the congre-
CATION moved in 1914 to the
church at Fifteenth and r streets
NV, which First Church still
owned. When First Church sold
