Observing conditions around
Nassau and discussing politics,
etc., your scribe feels that the
greatest draw back at present to
Bahamian Negroes, is in electing
their leaders. They have numbers
of good men in the various fields
of endeavor but whom could they
call their top leader? For instance
in Miami you have Drs. I. p.
Davis, Hawkins and Elmer Ward
politically; the Rev. John E. Gull
mer, Rev. Edward T. Graham,
Rev. Theodore Gibson in the
spiritual world; civicly Messrs.
L. E. Thomas, Neal Adams and
Joe Taylor and in the journalistic
world. the Rev. H. E. S. Reeves.
But here it is extremely difficult
to know just who to call our most
outstanding leaders. 1t would be
very wise thing if the citizens
Of Nassau would make it public
ly known just whom they pre-
pared to recognize as their man,
politically, spiritually, civicly and
otherwise and let the public know.

OUTSTANDING LEADER

This week I ann going to tell
my Miami friends something
about one of our outstanding
leaders in the spiritual world.
Rev. Charles H. Thompson of
Cat Island and now resident of
the city of Nassau for a number
of years. is now considered one
of NaSSau's most outstanding
spiritual leaders and a man of
great influence in the Baptist
world and the community in gen.
eral.
This Rev. gentleman started the
TRANSPORTATION Baptist Church
some years ago in a small room
with just a few followers.
Through hard work and toll,
industry and with will to do
he has now built UP one of the
finest congregations.
Rev. Thompson is very pro-
gresSive man and always thinking
to improve his congregation and
his church work. He was one of
the first Baptist churches to in
stall a pipe organ in Nassau. Re-
Gently he installed a modern new
electric Hammond organ. His was
the first Baptist church to robe
his choir like the churches in
America and England.
His church services are well at
tended and if one wishes TO wor-
ship at the TRANSPORTATION Bap-
fist church do not go there very
early they would find themselves
without a seat. and at special SER
vices there is not standing room.
The Rev. gentleman, l under
stand, is now contemplating build
ing new church with all mod
ern improvements.
His congregation loves him and
only recently presented him with
car as a token of their apprec-
iation of their love for his faith
full and efficient services as pas
tor of this church.
In the community Rev. Thomp-
son is known as a most humble
unassuming and lovaIble gentle
man. He is a member of two sue
ceSsful insurance companies. He
is also a member of the Munich
pal Alliance. He is minister who
lives up to the dignity of his
chosen profession. He is also a
member of the Bahamas Brother
hood and other civic organizations.
Among all classes in the cornmun-
lty he is well thought of and
highly respected. N
