Church on Sunday, June 3, 1918, was a marked success, not only financially, but patriotically. The willingness of the Colored peo ple to rally and be loyal to the Star* r.nd Stripes was shown with much fervor. The sermon for the morning service was preached by Mr. Ulysses Hick main, a young man who has chosen for his life work a ministerial career. He hopes to aid in this great crisis by the saving of souls. His first ser mon was delivered in a very' pleasing manner. At the afternoon service a very fitting and yet intellectual address was delivered by Rev. E. M. Tomp kins of Trinity M. E. Church. R<-v. i Mr. Tompkins said in part: “It is a great thing to consider what nag .hap pened in the last hundred years. Not many of us know that the great move l.ient called Methodism was set forth when a Colored man named John Stu- j art started the gospel among the Ir- j dians. Now it is to be found all over this vast universe. We are now passing through a j great crisis and whether it lasts five years or not. It all depends upon our steadfastness upon the Lord Jesus Christ. The only way to solve the world problem is to give our money, our j help and our faith to the Lord. The spirit of the hour is not what we have j lost, but what we are willing to give. The making of the world safe for democracy. The reason the world is now' facing a great struggle is because her people have failed to take into consideration the power of the Lord Jesus Christ.

They’re in tune with the style standards of today. There’s a touch of militarism to the new styles, especially for young men. The shoulders are slightly accentuated and the five-seam panel back gives the broad shouldered, soldierly ef fect. The new colors are the various shades of blues and browns.

The speaker at the evening service was in the person of The Hon. Elmer J. Burkett, who was very cleverly and yet very artistically introduced by one of Lincoln’s young men, a young man of marked intelligence, and who d » i.erves much praise for the elocution ary manner in which he introduced one of Nebraska’s ablest men. This young man was Mr. T. T. McWilliams. Mr. Burkett spoke of the loyalty of the Colored Americans. That men are measured by what they do and not by what they intend to do, and only in this way can true patriotism be shown. Never since the wmrld’s his tory has a Colored man ever blas phemed the government. That it is the duty of every Colored American to aid in this way for the uplift of the hu man race. The responsive remarks were made by Rev. O. J. Burchhardt, who said: “Colored people have always been loyal to the flag. They are willing to fight for democracy—a world-wide democracy.” Mr. J. E. Jeltz rendered a solo en titled “I Come to Thee.” Much credit should be given the octette that led the congregation in the singing of America at the dose of the program. The collection for the day amounted to $304.69. The L. L. S. Kensington Club met at the home of Mrs. Robert Johnson Monday afternoon, June 3, 1918.
