first official invitation that he
had received to address the Min
ister's Conference since his cleo
ton. Rev. G.. O. Trimm was cleo
ted one week ago today, and had
as one of the first items on his
program, the invitation to the
president of the National Baptist
Convention to address that body.
The announcement was made one
week ago, to that effect, after DR..
Trimm was officially elected as
president of the conference.
The president of the National
Baptist Convention was received
with great enthusiasm and warmth
of spirit. Speaking from the sub
ject, Jesus And The Lad", DR..
Jackson challenged the audience,
who listened with intense interest
and enthusiasm, to a simple trust
in God, and dedication to Him,
of whaever His gifts to us have
been. DR.. Jackson said: when a
preacher dedicates his talents, his
ability, to God, be they great or
small, he can have no fear, even
though there be rocks on either
side, an army approaching, and
the sea before. God will give him
strength and deliverance."
One of our outstanding clergy
men made this comment after the
sermon, and justifiably so: "He is
truly one of the greatest preachers
and leaders of our generation"
At the close of the message by
the president of the convention, DR..
j. c. Austin, pastor of the Pilgrim
Baptist Church, a veteran leader
in the National Baptist Convention
of many years, stood, and with
voice full of tears and awith a
deep feeling, said: II am a changed
man. "God has spoken to me, and
| wish to share with you. am led
to call today, for a united brother
hood in the state of Illinois. to
follow the leadership Of the presi-
dent of the National Baptist Con-
vention, man with great vision,
and great spirit" When he had
finished, second to this motion
was made by several men, then the
vast audience stood together and
cheered with great interest and ap-
probation.
DR.. B. F. Paxton, moderator of
the Greater New Era Baptist AS
ISOLATION, the largest in Illinois,
arose and made a very eloquent
address, saying, "most of you men

The country has made Jackson
city
Looks like it still ought to be

People are building houses every
where you look
And a very few factories to be

You that are filling the city, are
from the country
Where the life of the city's food

We use to get fryers for only Is
cents
And IS cents for a grown hen.
The food crops in the country are
shorter
And the laborers all are moving
to town
You are hollering about segregat-
ing everywhere
When we ought to be calling a rab-
bit hound.
God has his eyes on every town
And in the country | will say also
You are hollering and shouting !
am a child of God
Dissatisfied everywhere you go.
If you are looking for Heaven, il
is not here
Tho the lights are shining bright
Thousands of good farmers move
to the city
You find both black and white.
We need more Christ in the cities
In the hearts of both women and
men
Churches buildings on every corner
And the alleys are filled with sin.
The House of Worship is the place
to go
And the jukes are breeding her sin
Playing the juke box both night
and day
For our young women and young
men.
Our Churches are full of juke low
In the country as we'll as in town
We need all our Churches segre-
gated
And turn all the juke lovers around
The love of money is the root OF
all evil
Are we loving money or liking ii
as we'll
Your money banner is hanging or
the wall
It is to win, loose or go to He'll.
1t is encouraging our children tt
beg money
They are trying to win or loose
You had better stop your girls
from begging
Sometimes it brings bad news.
