JOHN’S BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. E. D. Johnson. Sunday school was opened at the usual time with the superin tendent presiding and the classes all well attended.

W. Johnson, yastor. Mrs. G. Peoples, reporter Sunday was a splendid day for service. The fire was burning all day. Rev. Johnson returned home Sunday morning from Kansas City from his ten day vacation and preached from St. Mark, 4:4, the subject. “The Master.” The Truelite Gospel Singers rendered a beautiful program Friday night, and Mrs. Sue John son won the prize. OMAHA COMMUNITY BIBLE FORUM Last Thursday night we re turned to our regular line of study, which covered Revela tions, 13th chapter. The vision ary scene extended the organized powers and rulers against the church to the Roman Empire. “This beast that John saw rise up out of the sea. seems to be a symbol of Pagan Roman powers, as it was then represented in the persecuting Nero. Note that the beast was given his power by the dragon, who is represented by the Jewish rulers. He was given power to make war on the Saints and to overcome them. For their encouragement the old law of reaping what you sow was men tioned. “He thaT sheds a man’s blood by man shall his own be shed.” The scene continues and another beast came up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he speaks as a dragon. This beast seems to symbolize Papal Rome. ‘Coming oup out of the Earth' seems to mean some religious power created by man Things of man’s production are not above the level of the earth. Any religious power created by man is not God. This beast looked like a lamb, but seemed to flirt with the first beast to force his selfish purposes. He would birng economic pretssure to bear and cause, the true believers to be killed. It seems a religious power working through a political power. We meet Thursday at 2012 N. 27th Street, at 8 p. m. Elder W. I. Irving, teacher and supervisor. Mrs. G. W. Gorum, reporter.

Air Squadron Honors Miss Bessie Coleman (Continued from Page 1) of the air corps. These two men struggled side by side ten years ago when everything they did along aeronautical lines had to be kept se cret, because of opposition from local white flyers. They made untold sacrifices to further themselves and to encourage other Negroes to take air interest in aviation. It was these at the Aeronautical University, 1338 South Michigan Avenue; the only ac credited university in the United States that will accept members of our race- These are only a few of the things that they have done. At the conclusion of Miss Brown’s talk the planes could be seen coming only a short distance away. They circled over at High Noon, dropped the wreaths in honor of ‘Brave Bessie’ and then headed back to the airport. The ships were piloted by the follow ing men: Commander Lieut. Col. Cornelius R. Coffey, a Great Lakes biplane with a Cirrus engine; Lieut. Dale L- White, a Commandaire bi plane with an OX-5 engine; William P. McFarland, an International bi plane with a Hispano-Suiza type en gine; Major Earl Renfroe, who owns a Mercury Chic monoplane, and Lieut. Grover C. Nash, a mid-wing Buhl Pup. Everyday Negroes are becom ing more and more air-minded and as public interest grows and they may be seen in increasing numbers i can be seen at the Harlem Airport at 97th and Harlm Avenue. fare Workers in that city, the profession which she has followed since. At present she is Supervisor of , tihe' Government employment Survey, a general Survey of the employment statistics of Negroes in Nebraska. Mrs. Davis has proven herself one of Omaha’s outstanding lead ers and we are proud that we can call her one of our own. Spingarn to Open Annual N. A. A. C. P.

Adams (For the Literary Service Bureau) Familiar is the story of the ancient mother who, after looking at the cost ly jewels of a neighbor said, “Mine will be here in a little while.” After a while, in romped a boy and girl of tender years. Calling the children to her and putting her arms around j them the mother smiling, said, “These are my jewels.” So, every woman should covet moth erhood and place the proper value on childhood—as much as this is possible. Considering them precious jewels, she should guard them against whatever would injure them, devaluate them, or, in any way unfit them for the greatest possible service to the world And it is only, “meet, right,” and their “bounden duty,” that children should always conduct themselves so that their mothers may always con sider them jewels, and so that the world may be persuaded to accept their mother’s evaluation as true.

Dept l-R-6 MAN CAN TALK WITH GOD, SAYS NOTED PSYCHOLOGIST A new and revolutionary religious teaching based entirely on the mis understood sayings of the Galilean Carpenter, and designed to show how we may find, understand and use the same identical power which Jesus used in performing His so called Miracles, is attracting world wide attention to its founder, Dr Frank B. Robinson, noted psycholo gist, author and ecturer. “Psychiana,” this new psychologi cal religion, believes and teaches that it is today possible for every normal human being, understanding spiritual law as Christ understood it, to duplicate every work that he Carpenter of Galilee ever did—it be lieves and teaches that when HE said, “the things that I do shall ye do also.” He meant what He said and meant it literally to all man kind, through all the ages. Dr. Robinson has prepared a 6000 word treatise on “Psychiana,” in which he tells about his long search for the Truth, how he finally came to the full realization of an Unseen Power or force so dynamic in itself that all other powers and forces fade into insignificance beside it— how he learned to commune direct ly with the Living God, using this mighty, never-failing power to dem onstrate health, happiness and fin ancial success, and how any normal being may find and use it as Jesus did. He is now offering this treatise free to every reader of this paper who writes him. If you want to read this highly interesting, revolutionary and fas cina'^.g story of the discovery of a great Truth, just send your name and address to Dr. Frank B. Robin son, 257 sixth Street, Moscow, Idaho. It will be sent free and post paid without cost or obligation. Write the Doctor today.—Copyright 1933, Dr- Frank B. Robinson.—Ad vertisement .
