81. PETER'S anne. CHURCH

The Cornerstone of the new st.
Peters church was laid with
much pomp and ceremony on Sun
day by the Prince Hall Masonic
lodge, with Mr.. Doty, grand wor-
shipful master, chairman of cere-
monies. Again, as in the ground
breaking ceremonies, we marched
from the school, this time to the
music of Central High school
band
Before the stone was placed in
the proper niche, several articles
collected by a committee of which
Raymond w. Cannon was the
chairman, were deposited therein.
Among them was a history of st.
Peters church, written by Mrs.
Mittie Cannon, mother of Mr..
Cannon, now in California.
Many had their first opportun-
ity of being shown through the
church basement and getting an
idea of what ii is really going TO
be- The thanks of the pastor and
members go to all who cooperated
in any way to make the day a
great success. Our finances for the
day were nearly 1900 dollars.
Sunday morning a nice crowd
was present to hear the Rev.
David Witheridge, the executive
secretary of the greater Mpls.
council of churches. The theme
of his message was Living One
Day at a Time" Biblical back
grounkd, Matthew 6:34.
We were reminded not to be
troubled about tomorrow, it is i'm
portant that we live this one day
well. Today must be lived at our
very best. Tomorrow will be i'm
portant when you face it as an
eternity. The cost of discipleship
Is a continuous thing, day after
day, after day. It's not hard to
live one day, but we must live
it in a sacrificial way. 1t was a
message all could understand and
apply TO his own life.
Mrs. M. l.. Simmons returned
to the hospital for another major
operation. Let's pray for all our
sick.
Wayman church, under the
leadership Of her young pastor,
has contributed to our building
fund to the amount of $47.10.
We're certainly grateful for their
sharing. The Rev. Patterson is
spending his first year at Way
man and is showing much prom
Use.
The Minneapolis chapter of
Railroad Evangelism will be our
guests on Sunday evening, May
5, at Bryant Jr. high school at
8 p. m. Come and enjoy a good
program.

town, Union OF South Africa. DR.
Cow, a distinguished churchmsn
is a native Of South Africa where
approximately 10000 Africans
hold membership in the congrega-
ton. He is the general superin-
tendent of the ABiE church in
South Africa.
Progressive elements in the
church feel that the time is ripe
for the election Of a native Afri-
can to the Bishopric. DR.. Cow
was educated at Tuskegee Insti-
tute in Alabama. His work in
South Africa has gained the good
viii Of the South African govern
ment and his supporters feel that
the cause Of African MethOdism
would be considerably aided II a
native were accorded recognition
at the coming General Conference.
Chief among the dark horses
who have not come out openly
campaigning for the BiEhopric,
but whose supporters are vigor-
ously working in their behalf Is
the Rev. Frank Veal, pastor Of
Emanuel AME in Charleston, s.
c. Veal, one Of the younger lead
ers of the church who has main.
tanned an excellent record both as
a pastor and a college faculty
member. Is definitely seen as a
real contender for the Bishopric.
Other candidates also include
such men as the Rev. f. c.
Hatcher, editor Of the Southern
Christian Recorder. He is given an
excellent chance 10 win top
honors.
Other Elections Important
Other elections also viii attract
attention. A layman is seeking the
office Of secretary of the Gener-
al Conference, now held by the
Rev. Russell Brown. Laymen are
dissatisfied with his report OF the
1913 General Conference. They
claim that he has never published
minutes Of this gathering.
Challenging the minister is DR..
Joshua NJ. Brown Of Chicago. He
promises to correct "errors" in
office by Rev. Brown. Another re-
ported candidate for this office Is
said to be the Rev. George Sims,
brother Of the former bishop
Sims.
Sull another factor TO be dis
cussed at the quadrennial will be
AME schools and colleges. Bishop
John II. Clayborn has been spear
heading a campaign TO reduce the
number Of colleges operated by
the AME church to about five
Glass A universities.
He also is seeking reform of
the publishing business of the
church, asking for consolidation
of church publications as well as
printing plants.

already has been set up, and re-

well be proud II its racial achieve
mennts and dignity. We are con.
cerned with the church life of the
Negro and especially with those
who belong TO the Methodist
church.
We can and will ease racial ten
sions and extend the benefits OF
democratic freedom to all races
without fear or favor. Religion
ought TO do this.
The Methodist church is in a
peculiar position Of responsibility
and trust. We are a church Of
many races, both in this country
and abroad. There is no reason
why we could not demonstrate by
our patience, our forbearance and
our vision a solution Of this prob
lem which would be Just and
Christlike 10 all races. When we
treat II as a human problem II
battles us; when we approach it as
a God-given opportunity it thrills
us"
Many observers saw in this
statement an obhque reference to
the Central Jurisdiction which has
been a touchy subject for a
number of years.
In a recent issue of the Chris
tian Advocate. official organ OF
the Methodist church, three lead
ing members Of the church presen-
ted their views on whether or not
the Central Jurisdiction should be
abolished. The Rev. Daniel Ridout
presented arguments in favor OF
ending the jimcrow set-up.
Unlike other Methodist denom-
nations, the Methodist church
does not elect bishops during its
general conference. Bishops are
elected after the conference by
the respective areas.
Since most Negro Methodists
are under the Central Jurisdiction,
they are able to vote for their
own bishops. The Central Jurisdic-
ton includes some 10 conferences.

At the morning worship, Rev.
Sexton brought a very interesting
message on the subject, POSSIBLE
tiles OF the Believing Faith"
Scripture reading. Mark 9:1-29
Some Of the many things said
were that many people lose faith
in prayer when God does not an
swer their prayer at once, for
getting that God works in His
own time: that prayer and sacri-
flee makes the church move, and
that all things are possible with
God.
Among the visitors present
were Mr.. and Mrs. l. l.. Lane Of
Kansas City, Mo, who are stop
ping with Mrs. Whiting, at 3511

made welcome. One new member
was brought into the fold as the
invitation to join the church was
given.

presented an ensemble Of men I'M

it was in the 1905 that the flood of

The second wave of Japanese
fairly swept in during the 1905.
And then annexation abruptly shut
off that supply. So. facing east

HONOLULU, T. H., Sept 20-T'he
color line is fast being obliterated as
many nationalities commingle in
Hawaii to fuse into new race. That
is the big story of today in the one
time Sandwich Islands. standing
now with one foot at the door of
statehood
There is vast sociological import in
this new race, a compound of the
many races that have poured into
this Hawaiian test tube of democra-
cy. This new race already has ide-
ntifiable characteristics-has be-
come we'll enough fixed" to give
the anthropologists something to
talk about. And specialists concer-
ned with social factors in nations
and governments make new notes in
their book.
The story goes back to the begin
ming of sugar there-that paradox
cal bane- and blessing factor in the
rise of these islands to world impor-
lance
Sugar gets the credit for this en-
ergence of a new racial type hu-
man admixture that already is be-
ing reckoned with in its evaluation
of origins. Heretofore races in the
savants' records have been deter
mined by color, plus group charac-
teristics of physiognomy, and such
like as European stock. Mongoloid,
Negroid, Australoid, and so on. Now,
confronted with a hodgepoge of
most of these combined in one they
have to take another look And dip
into the bag for new race name
Places far and scattered made this
socio-economic contribution. The
Philippines and. far round on the
opposite side of the earth, the West
Indies; and India, Russia Portugal,
Mongolia, Japan Driblets too, from
other far countries.
These sharply contrasting ma
tionalities only lately began to fuse.
This writer found in 1909 pattern
of race segregation on the principal
plantation. such as Eva. The differ
ent nationals kept to themselves in

cation we're definitely drawn. The
