HIS WORD
BY Archbishop W.D.C. Johnson

Now beloved, we are the children
of God if we keep his word AL
ways knowing the time of the
Lord now it is high time to awake
out of sleep; for now is your saliva
ton nearer just when we believeth.
Children, obey your parents in
the Lord, for this is right. Honor
thy father and mother, which is the
first Commandment which promis-
es that it may be we'll with thee;
and thou mayest live long on the
earth.
And We fathers, provoke not your
children to wrath, but bring them
up in the nurture and admonition
of the Lord. Servants be obedient
to them that are your masters, ac-
cording to the flesh, with fear and
trembling in singleness of your
heart, as unto Christ, net with eye
service as men pleases, but as the
servants of Christ; doing the will

Lord and not to men.
Knowing that whatsoever good
things any man doeth, the same
shall he receive of the Lord, whe-
ther he be bond or free. And We
master, do the same things unto

Knowing that your master also is
in heaven. Neither is there respect

be strong in the Lord Jesus, the
Holy One of the world, King Jesus
will come in your heart, the tenn

One saint asked the other saint,
"How long shall the time be when
the Lord cometh with glory and
cleanse our sanctuary in our
hearts" And he said, ''In two
thousand and three hundred years
our sanctuary shall be cleansed, so
be strong in the Lord, and in the
power of his might in the name
of Jesus, glory be to God on high,
Amen.

10 THINGS

New York City-Remember in
your Prayers and Wishes this
Christmas Season to give thanks
for all the many Blessings that we
have all received during the year
from all over the world through
individuals, Organizations, the
Press, and Businesses as well with
their many channels of getting
messages to us-the Radio, TV,

all forms of entertainment thru
which so many messages of Toler-
ance are or have been given to US.
Mention of THANKS brings to
my mind the expression of graft
tude shown to the President of
NACGN, Mabel K. Staupers by
the NY Local for her untiring
work toward the development of a
Bigger and Better" NAGN-
which some day will mean the
unity of Nurses regardless of race.

the splendid work accomplished by
President Staupers, and Virginia

mones. Tea was poured by the
charming Adline Carman.
Another THANKS goes to Mr..
Jones, Residents Counsellor of the
Red Shield Club here in Harlem
for his worthwhile efforts in put
ting over a Program "Starbound"

Broadway Chatter
BY DAVID BETHEA

NEW YORK CITY 49, Hya Folks
and a HAPPY AND PROSPER
Gus NEW YEAR! You better for
get about what happened in 1949
and throw your thoughts on how
to improve on the mistakes of some
of those old year ventures. BROAD
WAY ushered in the big year with
a bang and all the joints jumped
to the tune of the almighty dol

ST., closed for a good part of last
year came to life in time to get in
on the lucrative crumbs of the New
Years festivities, and show bust
ness has a prosperous outlook for
1850.
But it was sad along the legit
parade for negroe shows. The lat
est being "How Long Till Sum-
mer," starring the balladeer, Josh
White that premiered at the Play
house last Wednesday evening. 1t
is six months till Summer, but
"How Long Till Summer" will
hardly be around till then. Frank
ly it was a nostalgia ending for
1919. The Tolerance movies came
into their own along the Great
White Way. "Home of the Brave"
"Lost Boundaries" "Pinky" and
Intruder in the Dust" were all
history making opportunities for
more liberal and democratic means
of exposing the bigotry which has
kept the Negro from enjoying his
rightful place in our society. But
Intruder in the Dust" slashes
deeper into the core of this bigotry
than all the rest of the Tolerance
films; it strikes at the heart of
uncivilized laws which has no place
in civilized society. JUANO HER
NANDEZ as the negro farmer is
our pick for the top performance
in the current crop of controversial
movies.
You've got to hand it to Mar
garet Truman. She is undoubtedly
the gamest performer of 1949. The
top critics blasted her talent as
"a small voice." no voice at all"
But didn't the top political bards
in 1913 stamped her father as the
man who couldn't win? Carry on
Margaret. You are not the first
singer that got the red pencil from

did it, you are proving with your
courage you can do it.

PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: There is nothing that /
know that | would have liked bet
ter than to have had lot of Far
ish Streeters whom | know, both
young and old, but mostly the
young, out at Campbell College
Tuesday night for the masterful
address on the Genius of the
Emancipation and the Emancipat-
or" by the internationally known
and unsurpassed orator, and mas
ter of the lore of American and
Negro history, Colonel Roscoe
Conklin Simmons. The reason l
expressed such a wish here is be-
cause | had heard them talking
about his coming as | sat before
my fish and beer, but for the
greater reason that most of them
still have in their minds ideas and
thoughts which makes them see our
prayers and struggles as useless,
and that most Of them still ration
alize the past and present, and
look into the future, with the at
titude and philosophy conveyed in
the story about the monkey who
looked at the elephant, after wit
Messing some of the Saturday night
antics of Aunt Haggar's Chilluns
and remarked, Ny People, My
People. Colonel Simmons was at
his incompatible best at Camp
bell College, and many of his long
admirers, including me, said that
it was the best speech that he had
been heard to make in any of the
recent years in which he has
spoken in the state, and perhaps
anywhere else. The theme that
| would call OF the attention of
the dyed-in- the-wool Parish Street
ers is the one he addressed to a
large group of young veterans in
the audience that willed the new
auditorium. / would also direct it
to the attention of Aunt Haggar's
Chilluns, young and old, in the
Ole Magnolia State, and every
where. Looking up at the young
veterans he said, the reason that
the Negro don't believe in himself,
is because he knows nothing about
himself. And when | heard him
say it it confirmed something my
grandma used to tell me. She
used to say, Son, the first thing
you got to learn something about
is where you come from, and then |
you can makeup your mind about
where you're going. Adding it all
up the best thing that Colonel
Simmons said is that Aunt Hag-
gar's Chilluns, both young and
old, need to know more about the
great history of the race, less they
continue to ratlonalize and defeat
their opportunity by constantly
turning to the story of the ele-
plant and the monkey.

What!-No Wives?

Yes no wives. More than 3O,0O0 husky men have made solemn promise to God never to marry in this day and age-in the United States; and thousands more of them are training themselves right now in self-discipline 50 that they'll be able to keep that promise, when they're allowed to make it. It's an oath by which they VOW to keep themselves, with Gods help, from every sex-pleasure in body and mind.
 They do this so that they can be free to serve God more completely in the Catholic priesthood
 "He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that be- long to the Lord, how he may please God. But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things o1 the world, how he may please his wife; and he is divided"u Corin- thians 7:32,33).
 They are leading a life apart, a life dedicated to God and neighbor. Theirs is not profession but Q vocation, calling for heroic self sacrifice. There must be no e!e- ment, no natural force in them selves, of which they are not mas ters.
 For there are eunuchs who were born so from their mothers womb: and there are eunuchs, who were
