ST. JOHN S A. M. E. CHURCH
In spite of the sub-zero weather,
a number of the faithful members
came to service last Sunday. Rev.
iiryant preacthed both morning
and evening.
The Captains of the groups for
the rally are trying to get their
groups lined up to do some great
work. Some of the captains start
ed out their trips to New York by
way of auto by paying some
money last Sunday. Those who
did not report, say it is not the
ones who pay early will win this
race, but the ones who pay all
he way to the end.
You are always welcome to
St. John. St. John feels she has
one of the best choirs and minis
ters in Omaha. Come out and see
for yourself.
THE METROPOLITAN
SPIRITUAL CHURCH
Sunday morning was another
<rreht feasting time at theMetro
politan Spiritual Church. Al
though it was very cold, the pas
or bruoght to us a great message
from St. Luke, 4:18. The sub
ieot was “The Spirit of the Lord
:s upon me because He hath an'
nointed me to preach the Gospel.”
The Sunday school is in a great
race for new membership under
the leadership of Sister A. G.
Arnold. Every Sunday evening
evening at six o’clock we have a
great time discussing God’s word
under the direction of Mr. L. Col
lier. Our postor brought to us
another great gospel message at
eight o’clock service, the subject
of which was, “Press On.” The
fire is always burning at the Me
tropolitan Spiritual Church. We
thank God that He sent Rev. John
son to our city. He has been our
pastor for three years, and we
can truthfully say that we find
no fault with him.
We are now in the midst of a
great revival, conducted by Elder
Massey from New York. Great
meetings full of fire are expected
each night. January 28th, Pro
fessor L. L. Boswell, director of
the National Spiritual Congress, a
nreacher, prophet, GosnePsinger,
pianist and organist, will be with
us for a week of great service for
God. All ministers and laymen
are invited to all services. Come
to Metropolitan and have a great
feasting time.

SALEM BAPTIST CHURCH
Sunday morning was well at
tended, and highly enjoyed by all
presen4, despite the weather’s ef
fort to defer all church goterb.
Superintendent Reagans opened
Sunday School at 9:30 a. m.
Although convelescing, Rev. Hil
son pastor.rendered a very touch
ing sermon at 11 o’clock, from
Jeremiah, 31 :1*14. His proclama
tion on “Home Coming” was
very imploring. In speaking of
how the Israelites had strayed
from Cod, he also reprimanded
the slothful Christians. The ser
mon reallv meant the restoration
of the children of God.
At 5:30 p. m. the P>. Y. P. TT.
was opened by its president, Mr.
William Cooper. In a very im
pressive manner the program
chairman attempted to divine the
most learned in.the Bible, the men
or women. She stated there seem*
ed to be no difference, with the
exception that all needed to read
the Good Book oftener and more
thoroughly. This “Bible Even
ing” program was sponsored by
Group Xo. 7. Next Sundav there
is to be another enjoyable pro
gram.
At 8 p. m. an agreeable meeting
was held, and Rev. Hil son did not
neglect to demonstrate his most
essential vision with his training.
“For the ablest men are those who
are able to summon the most en
thusiasm.”
We were pleased with the many
members and visiting friends pre
sent Sunday.

SENIOR LEAGUE BASKETBALL
The results of the North Omaha
Senior League games, played weekly
at the Orraha University gym, turned
out to be more thrilling and close than
was expected by the paltry group of
spectators who viewed the games.
Under a bedlam of frenzied yells the
boys from the Mid-City marched
down the floor to score successive!;,'
against the “Aces”. The final score
was Mid-City 27, Aces 20.
The second game started out in a
dull system of passes which were des
tined to end up in a thrilling race for
victory. The Hunter’s All-Stars took
the lead at the beginning, but the
players for the Urban League were
not to be daunted by this. They made
a last half rally, and a long shot by
Dixon barely failed missing the bas
ket as the whistle blew. The game
ended with Hunter’s All-Stars 14, and
the Urban League 12.

LAW ENFORCEMENT
The problem of the hour in every
section of the United States is the
nforcement cf the law. Such a
wave of crime as never before has
seemngV enveloped the whole coun
try. The president of these United
States has been aroused to its im
mensity and every official connected
with the law enforcement machinery
r m the AdminJstraton of Justice
Office in Washington down to the
o-stal ulary in the smallest hamlet
and village, have with renewed vigor
and determination resolved to put a
stop to it by usng every means and
agency within their power to appre
hend and punish the culprits.
The appalling gravity of the situ
ation can be seen by the calling of
the Crime Conference in Washington
toy the President a few months ago.
The Negro as a race may be compli
mented on the fact that up to the
present, they have not developed any
Dillingers, Burkes, Barrows and oth
er public enemy gangsters in their
race, but they have those among
their group who are in a way, as des
structive to the best interests of the
rest of them as the gangsters above
mentioned are to the peace and sec
urity of the nation at large. Es
pecially was this true in Omaha in
1934.
Twelve Negroes Murdered
By Negroes—
From January 1, 1934, to January
1, 1935, twelve Negroes were mur
dered by Negroes in Omaha, averag
ing one for each month, and this too,
in a community that can boast of
only about 14,000 Negroes. Jn fact
the number of Negroes murdered was
exceeded by only a small margin, if
any, by that of the whites, who num
ber in population over 200,000. It is
evident by this that some step must
be taken to safeguard the peace and
security of the citizens who comprise
this group, and it is also self-evident
that it must, and by right, should, be
done by the Negroes themselves.
A few weeks ago a meeting was
called by some of the Negroes of the
city for the purpose of taking some
steps to curb the type of Negro,
known as the “killer” in his lust for
blood, and from that meeting an or
ganization was formed to be known
hereafter as the Citizens’ Law En
forcement Committee. It is under
stood that the purpose of this commit
tee, primarily, is to work and do all
within its power to see that those
charged with crmes of mfurder shall
be properly and vigorously prosecuted
so that peaceful, law-abiding citizens
may safely walk the streets of our
cit;J.
