ST. JOHN’S A. M. E.
CHURCH NOTES
Sunday is the closing of Rev. W. T.
Osborne’s administration at St. John.
He will preach his final sermon Sun
day morning at 11 o’clock. Sunday
evening special program and reports
from every department of the Church
showing what has been paid, what is
yet due, and the amounts Rev. Os
borne is leaving in every treasury.
Members and friends are urged to be
present at these services.
The most elaborate affair of the
season was the banquet given at St.
John’s Tuesday evening by the Will
ing Workers Club, with Rev. and Mrs.
Osborne and the husbetnds of the
members of the Club as honored
guests. The brilliant lights in the
lecture room of the church displayed a
largo table beautifully decorated with
cut flowers and ferns, with covers for
twenty-five. Mrs. Edward King, pres
ident of the Club, was toastmistress.
Timely addresses were made by ex
presidents Madams F. J. McCullough
and J. N. Thomas, also by Rev and
Mrs. Osborne. Mrs. B. Ford gave a
beautiful poem on “Contentment."
The entertainment committee, Mes
dames J. E. Davis, A. Raffity, B. Na
pier, W. Stevens, E. Morris, M.
Reeves, E. L. Jackson and H. Lewis,
spared no pains in making the afafir
a grand success from every viewpoint.
Mrs. W. J. Payne, of St. Louis, and
Miss Ethel Hughes were among the
invited guests. The menu was very
elaborate. The W. W. Club presented
Rev. Mr. Osborne a fine hat. He also
presented each member of the club a
souvenir dish. The club was organ
ized by Elder Osborne and has held
its own throughout his administration
and is the only club of the Church
that has given aid to every depart
ment of the Church.
The Union meeting at St. John’s on
Friday evening was a great spiritual
uplift, though mingled with sadness in
the fact that Rev. and Mrs. Osborne
are to soon leave Omaha, yet the ad
dresses by Dr. Logan, Mr. Hibbler,
Mr. Bradley, Rev. W. A. Metcalf and
Mrs. F. J. McCullough were full of
interest and words of commendation
on the great work accomplished for
the Church and community at large by
Rev. and Mrs. Osborne.
On Sunday night the waiters’ asso
ciation did credit to themselves in
the most splendid addresses, music
and contribution. Mr. Jordan, pres
ident, in his address, told the object
of the association, and in pointing out
the great good being done made many
friends for the association. Head
waiter, Mr. Clark, one of Omaha’s
brilliant young men, gave a strong
talk no the issues of the day in con
nection with his work and carried his
audience with the eameset enthusi
asm he displayed in his delivery. Mr.
James Hill, tenor, proved a trained
artist in his rendition. Rev. W. S.
Metcalfe, muster of ceremonies, also
gave an interesting talk and sanction
ed head waiter Clark, who said, not
only St. John’s, but the public at large
would feel the loss of Rev. and Mrs.
Osborne.
MR. JENKINS CONTINUES TO
SPEAK TO HIS PATRONS
Our growing popularity shows that
in barbering, as in everything else, I
have made good my promise to my
patrons. I stand for first class, clean
business. I began with it and still
stand for clean business. There is no
pool hall connection with my busi
ness. I run a strictly first class btrr
ber shop with up-to-date methods in
barbering. Everything strictly clean,
sanitary and up-to-the-minute. Have
your wife come down and your child
and enjoy a quiet stay while you are
being shaved.

from A. C. Frost, American Consul at

death of his youngest son, Raymond i

while in swimming. Evidently in div
ing young Allen struck his head, for j
the advice read from shock on head

counts for his presence in Algeria.
