t ■ ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH “The Friendly Church’’ Rev. L. P. Bryant, pastor As last Sunday was Fathers’ Day, all honors were paid to him throughout the day. The attend ance for both Sunday School and Church were good. Rev. Bryant preached from St. Luke, 15:20. He took for his subject, “The Heart of a Father.’’ From this very important subject he preached a very impressive ser mon. Some of the many thoughts that should be remembered are as follows: The father has many hard bat tles to fight, yet he fights them with strong hopes. He may at times seem hard or rough, but he is always forgiving and kind. Not all human fathers are fit ted to do as much as others, but a true father ministers to his house hold as best he can. A lov ing father always wants the good will of all, and his love will not fail. One of the greatest joys of a father is to know that what he does is appreciated by all. Our heavenly Father wants his children to be true. He will be by your side every day and every where you go. He is always will ing to give one another chance and will welcome you into His service. It was very pleasing at the end of this service to have four young women come and join the church, in the persons of Miss Ruth Mil ler, Mrs. L. W. Porter, Mrs. Mat tie E. Mashel and Miss Magnola Ezell. The visitors were Rev. Jackson, an evangelist, Mr. Geo. Rilly, of Los Angeles, California, and Mr. Bridges, of Omaha. The guest soloist was Miss Ma gnola Ezell, who has a very pleas ing voice. Miss Ezell has become a new member of St. John’s choir. The church, Sunday school and friends wish to take this as one of the methods of expressing their sympathy to the family and friends of Mrs. Willie Green, who passed away last Monday. Mrs. Green was very faithful to her family and church obligations. The choir has lost one of its most loyal members. The sick list includes Mrs. L. P. Bryant, wife of the pastor, Mrs. Ward and Miss Florence Speece. We especially miss Miss Speece as she is so faithful to her duties on the usher board. Next Sunday, June 23rd, will be quarterly meeting day at St. John’s and the pastor is very an xious that all reports come in on time To summer visitors. You are always welcome to St. John and invited to make it your church while in Omaha. Get The Omaha Guide as the boys pass on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. It will post you on the church and social news. L. L. McVay, reporter. CLASSIFIED ADS FOR SALE 7 Rooms modern Home Cheap. Near 24th, and Lake Sts. Invest ors Investigate. WE-1149.

The congrega tion seems to be growing steadily, with new arrvials, which will make it very necessary to again enlarge our seating capacity, whichr is now being taxed to it’s utmost almost every Sunday. The instruction class will meet two evenings a week until furth er notice, every Tuesday and Fri day evening at 7:45 o’clock promptly. These classes are being conducted by the pastor, Father James Pruess S. J. They are in tensely interesting and beneficial, to older Catholics, as well as to the later converts and prospective converts for whom they were or iginally intended. A beautiful shrine of the Bles sed Virgin has been arranged on the left side of the altar, and adds much to the solemn dignity and beauty of appearance of the sanctuary. A secret bene factor has again come to our as sistance with the donation of a large and beautiful statute of the Sacred Heart, which will even tually be placed upon the main altar, replacing a smaller one that is there at present. Father Pruess is to be highly commended for his energetic work along this line, and his foresight into the growth and development of the church in Omaha. The summer vocational school, opened for registration Monday morning at 9:00 o’clock. Owing to a slight rain and a misunderstand ing of the anouncement, few children were present, but more will be on hand next Monday at the real beginning of the work for the classes. The girls are to take sewing and needle art, with some work in physical culture and recreation. The larger boys will undertake the remodeling and re painting of toys, for future dis tribution to the poor. All classes will be well supervised by expert teachers in each particular line. A Novens to the Sared Heart, begins with a mass Wednesday morning at 8:15. Evening devo tions will be held also for the 9 days. Everyone is urged to take advantage of this occasion for prayer and pious reflection, and the benefits that will result. Mr. and Mrs. George Bryant were baptized and received into the church last week. They re ceived their first Holy Commu nion Sunday morning at the 9:00 o’clock mass. The pastor and parishioners extend them a hearty hand of welcome. WILLING WORKERS CLUB. The Willing Worker’s Club of the Metropolitan Church met in the home of Mrs. G.

Bearer (For the Literary Service Bureau) FATHERS AND SONS Text: A wise son maketh a glad father.—Proverbs 10:1. It is undeniably true that a wise, a discreet, and careful son will gladden the heart of his father. The last clause of the sentence from which the text is taken reads, “But a foolish son iis the heaviness of his mother.” It might have been added that such a foolish son is the heaviness of his father, also. Filial obedience and respect make a father happy. Any honest and self-respecting son will exerc’^e these toward his own father- And he will get happiness out of the discharge of the obligation. Disobedience will bring unhappi ness to any father. Waywardness of a son and harshness toward his fath er sorely grieve a father’s heart. Conduct which discredits a father and crime that brings punitive re sult are responsible for the heaviness and grief of many fathers. Every son should remember that neglect or abuse of a father will bring retribu tion; that a man’s own sons are apt to deal with him as he deals with his father. These thoughts are presented for consideration in connection with the annual return of Father’s Day, when the people of the nation are remind ed of the importance of father* and the consideration due them. “Listen! My Friends” There will be a five act drama giv en at Z’-on Baptist Church Friday, June 28, 1935, at 8:30 P. M. Title— “A Cast Away.” This play is per formed by the Sixteen Dramatic Aces, under the auspices of the Wo men’s State Missionary Society for foreign education This drama portrays a young wo man who had given her life for the church, but at last she fell in the hands of a young man whom she loved, causing her to go wrong. When her heart was broken into pieces, her way was as dark as the storm clouds. She sought sympathy, but there was none, even the church that she had served faithfully, re fused to sympathize, thus driving this beautiful soul to the slums. There she found sympathizers. They took her in, but she was net satisfied with that life. Through a hard struggle she obtained an education. A stran ger saw her capability, pushed her through. With the aid of this stran ger she became the world’s greatest choir director and soloist. Come and see this drama for it is filled with thrills and pathos. The author of this play is a young man of our own city, who wrote, “What Is Life”, a play that is the talk of the town. Don’t forget—Friday, June 28, 1935, at 8:30 P. M- Admission 15c. Federation Condemns Discrimination Against Negro Workers Harrisburg, Pa., (CNA)—The Penn sylvania State Federation of Labor, at its 34th annual convention last week, passed a resolution calling for the elimination of clauses in constitutions of affiliated unions which contain any discrimination against Negro laborers.

ALTA VESTA A GIRL’S PROBLEMS By Videtta Ish (For The Literary Service Bureau) Alta Vesta from Her Father—No .11 My dear Child: So you will argue with your father, will you? Well, I am glad you are thinking and asking questions. I want you to accept my decisions but I am willing for you to ask why, and I am willing to explain, whenever that is practicable My little girl is good, but playing with bad girls will not help her to keep on being good. True, good people can help bad ones to be bet ter; but in most cases the bad ones win the good ones. And these little girls are jolly and agreeable, are they? Well, usually people who do wrong are very agreeable, sometimes it is to deceive, and sometimes it shows a weakness of character which is responsible for their badness. I am convinced you should not risk going with these girls, but before we close the discussion ask Aunt Cor nelia to inquire about their parents, about thair relatives and the kind of homes they live in. i’ll tell you why I suggest this, when you give the information. Now, Alta Vesta, this is a long let ter. long enough J hope. Love and kisses. Your father. Proverbs and Parables By A. B. Mann (For The Literary Service Bureau) NOT A DAY WITHOUT A LINE This is an adirvonitron to allow no day to pass without having done some worthy deed- Time is fleeting. Life is brief. There is much to be done and every day brings its own duties and its own responsibiities. So, to make V-fe full and to make its opportunities count, it is necessary that no day shall pass without some worthwhile accomplishmenlt. Some one wrote “Time is so prec ious that only one mr.nute is given to us at a time and always that one is taken before another is given.” And that is true of days, also. This is in keeping With Longfelow’s ur gent admonition: “Trust no future howe’er pleasant, Let the dead past bury its dead; Act; act in the living present, Heart withr'n and God over head.” HONOR FATHERHOOD By R. A. Adams (For The Literary Service Bur<jgu) To mothers give all honor due, For love unfeigned, sincere and true, But ’twere injustice, if we would Neglect to honor fatherhood. The bk’nd alone are unaware A father’s load of toil and care, For which, tho oft misunderstood, Great praise is due to fatherhood. It ;s indeed a noble thing, The praise of motherhood to sing, But gross injustice if we should Forget what’s due to fatherhood. Then, let it be rememberd well, And reckoned honor great, to tell In justice, of the meed of good, For which to honor fatherhood. Ethiopian Emperor Appeals to league of Nations Geneva, (CNA)—Emperor Haile Se lassie of Ethiopia last week appealed personally to the League of Nations Council to halt Italian fascism’s mili tary preparations for the subjugation and enslavement of the Ethiopian peo ple. “We ask resolutely that the Coun cil .. . should stop Italy’s military preparations, the character of which is falsely described as defensive”, Haile Selassie urged. He further asked the League Council to appoint a committee for “full inquiry and in vestigation” if the Jtalian fascists re fused to submit to impartial arbitra tion, on all issues in question. Resents Mussolini Slurs Selassie charged the Italian govern ment with initiating “a campaign of propaganda in an endeavor to justify her occupation of Ethiopian territory as a mission of civilization and as treatment due a barbarous nation”.
