Reserved for Americans They call it “Constitution Hall” —the building in Washington, owned by the Daughters of the American Revolution, where Marian Anderson was once de nied the right to sing because she was a Negro. The American Association for the Advancement of Science was meeting in Constitution Hall last week when an usher tapped a guest on the shoulder, and in vited him to move from his box seat to a section reserved for Negroes. The guest happened to be the Ethiopian minister to the United States. Now everybody is sorry. The association has tendered its pro found apologies. The State De partment has expressed regrets. Everybody agrees that the inci dent was a distressing mistake. So it was. But when you con sider its implications, you un derstand how weird are the re sults of racial segregation in Washington. As segregation works ^ in the nation’s capital, a dark skinned person is not to be dis criminated against so long as he represents a foreign country. He is to be ushered to the Negro section, or denied entrance to white hotels and restaurants, ONLY if he happens to be a dark-skinned “person of Ameri can nationality. Maybe the solution is to issue all dark-skinned diplomats a badge which reads: “I am NOT an American. No segregation necessary.” Sunday Times, Sept. 20, 1948. * Recovered After Injury Mrs. Suzaie O’Donnell 623 C Street has recovered after receiv ing painful injuries as the result of a fall. The accident occurred several weeks ago. Sunday. SdwoL otjUAjO/L BY R. E. HANDY. Subject—A Library of Religi ous Literature. Scripture Reading—Psalm 119: 97-105, John 20:30, 31, Second Tim. 3:16, 17. Golden Text—The word of Our God shall stand for ever. Isa. 40:8. —The Lesson— We begin a now quarter today and the lessons will tend to be studied as Christian literature. Our Bible is really a library of sixty-six books, written by in spiration of the Holy Spirit, and placed on paper by some forty four writers. Our Bible gives us God’s thoughts for the good of man kind in a variety of styles, so as to make the way of salvation. So plain that the way faring man, even though he be a fool, need not err therein. We find law, poe try, history prophecy and gospel j letters. Today’s lesson begins with the 119 Psalm. (The Psalms are Poe try). There are twenty-two stanzas in this Psalm each con taining eight verses, and corre spond to the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew Alphabet. This lengthy Psalm is full of the praises of God and his word. For our consideration today, the Psalmist exclaims “Oh how I love thy law.” Luke wrote his gospel that his Greek friend Theophilus might know of the mighty works of Jesus. Being a physician he was able to confirm the cures he had witnesses, and heard of, through un-impeachable witnessed and therefore his story is unbiased. John wrote his gospel that “ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ.” Timothy exclaims “All Scrip ture is given by inspiration of God” The very breath of God has entered into the Bible and its words live and impart life.” So as we enter upon our lessons this quarter let us study intently that our Spiritual life might be enhanced.

COLLEY “Trust your furs with a furrier” 1745 South 11 3*6582 Our Children BY MRS. W. B. DAVIS. Hands Across The Color Line I remarked that it was a coin cidence, that our governor’s name was William Wills. “Well,” ob served young Billy, his face beam ing, “you’ve got to hand it to the Willses for getting places!” In the morning I went up to the boys’ room to tell them to come down to breakfast. Looking into their room I noticed their bed had been neatly made. Thinking Mrs. Lou had made it I remarked I hadn’t noticed her come up stairs. “Oh sheain’t been up,” explained Billy. I asked him who made the bed. He said that he had. I told him I’d been in the army some years back and had made my own bed after a fashion, but even with this experience I couldn’t do as well as he, where, I wanted to know, had he picked up the art. “Well,” explained Billy, his eyes spark ling, “it’s like this. Last week at Abyssinia church they got us kids together and told us what to do when we lived with you folks up in Vermont. “Did they teach you to make beds?” I asked. “Yes, they did,” he replied. “Boys, too?” “Yes,” he repeated rather disgustedly, “boys too.” He had been telling me he came from a fairly large family and I said there was something I wanted him to consider. “When you go back to Harlem, Billy, will you promise me you’ll make your own bed each morning before you start^jut to school and make it as neatly and tidily as you have here?” The young lad looked at me rather sheepishly, then grinned and said, “Brother, I ain’t sayin.” He wasn’t going to be caught in any such predicament! We very much enjoyed having the two Wills brothers at our house. —Parent Magazine.
