Adams (For the Literary Service Bureau) Properly speaking, Thanksgiv ing is a memorial, an expression of appreciation and of gratitude for Divine benefactions. The spir it is commendable; the purpose is laudable; it should be encouraged; especially should the youth of the nation be urged to give to it due consideration; but, in our celebra tion there are some things which mar. It is to be regretted that the mercenary spirit has become so prominent—almost dominant. The . commercial world thinks more of "bargains” and "sales” than of, the spirit Then, Epicureanism j enters in. Many surrendor to gluttonly while others are hungry. It is both ridiculous and sacrilig ious to pretend to express grati tude by drunkenness and other forms of bacchanalianism. Frivol ity and worldliness are often dom inant features of what is profess edly a religious celebration; and in this the real spirit of Thanks giving is lost. As a nation, as a race, and as individuals, we have much for which to be thankful. I know no better way of emphasizing this thought than that which is found in the hymn entitled, “Count your Blessings.” And I recommend that the hymji be used in Thanks giving services. The first verse carries the gist of the whole pro duction. It runs: "If upon the billows you are tem pest-tossed, If you are discouraged, thinking all is lost, Count your many blessings—name them, one by one; And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.” NORTHSIDE METROPOLITAN SPIRITUAL CHURCH The services were wonderful throughout the day. The morn ing service was conducted by Rev. Carter. Before the sermon he left a short space open for testifying. The subject of his sermon was "Bondsman.” The special program by the Union was a short play by Sister Mildred Jackson and her son, en titled, “How God Changed the Wicked Mother.” The evening service was con ducted by the pastor, Rev. John son, his subject “Will you hear Jesus.” After the sermon he an nounced at the regular service Wednesday night we will have a Flower Seance. We were pleased to have the members from the Southside church, and hope they come back again. For it not only encourages us, but it unites us to gether more. “And as you journey onward, may you always find Life more bright and sunny friends more true and kind. Rev. R. W. Johnson, Pastor Rev.

He has gone and the grave hath received him T’was Jesus who called him away. He has gone to the Lord who re deemed hin\ From night to the splendor of day. He has gone and we never shall see him Again in this dark world of woe God grant we shall join him in Heaven Where sorrows no more we shall know. He has gone but we would not re call him God’s summon we too must obey, For he with the angels Is singing, The song of the ransomed today. Deacon A J. McCarthy. SERMONETTE By Arthur B. Rhinow (For the Literary Service Bureau) The Charm of the Chance The men were thoroughly en grossed in their games of cards, so that the new arrival hardly dared to bid them “good evening,” lest he break the spell. But he sat down to watch and think. What a fascination the game has for them. We can well understand when they say they find relief from ordinary cares in the pas time. For the time being they are dealing with kings and queens diamonds of purely fictitious val ue; they are living in a land of make-believp, forgetting all else. The same is true of chess play ers. They, too, deal with ficti tious values. Their kings, queens, knights, ladies, castles, and pawns are but symbols of imagination en titles. In a sense they are taking part in a battle in fairy land. They have withdrawn from the struggle jfor material realities and engage in a tournament in which loss or gain leaves them neither richer nor poorer. No wonder they feel relieved. It is a retreat into the land of make-believe. If, however, they play for mon ey, then real, material values en ter in again, and the game be comes a business with all its cares and headaches. The charm be comes a lure. No chains are heav ier than the confirmed gambler’s fetters. For him the beautiful gift of play has become a curse. World War Hero Hopes That Italy Will Lose Fight Jamestown, Term., Nov. 30, (By ANP).—While emphasizing the fact that he would not “go over there again”, Sergeant Alvin C. York, white, described by General John J. Pershing, as “the greatest civilian soldier of the world war” expressed the hope that Italy would be defeated in the present Italo Ethiopian war. “I hope” said Sergeant York, ‘Italy will be defeated, sent back home and made to pay for every cents worth of damage that’s been done. But I don’t want to see this country take up arms to help do it. And if she does count me out. If we are attacked I’d be on the shore to meet them when they arrived but I am not going over and stick myself in anybody else’s business again.” “Has Crimson Gulch a good ho tel?” asked the traveling man. "To tell the truth,” said Cactus Joe, "it hasn’t. If you want a square meal, speed up your car a little and I’ll use my p’lltlcal pull to have you put It. Jail for a few hours." ■.

Chicago, Nov. 30, (ANP)— The Julius Rosenwald Fund has expended $1,689,451 dur ing the past two years, accord ing to the Biennial Review just issued by Edw*in R. Em bree, president of the Fund. The payments were made in carrying out educational and philanthropic programs, the chief of which are Negro wel fare, rural education, and medical services. Outstanding among these has been the study of Southern tenuant farming. In commenting on rural edu cation, Mr. Embree says in the report: “During recent dec ades, when we were hypno tized by industrial prosperity and urban glamour, we ceased to think of the country except as a place from which to es cape. Formalistic schools were as active as any of the other forces of the past half century in carrying children's atten tions and ambitions from the country to the city. In fact schools Trcrs a oiud of sicV6 lor separating tne smart from the dull and it was an axiom the times that thje smart would quickly migrate to the cities, leaving only the dull ards to make country life even more dismal and soggy than it had been before. The first and great reform in rural schools, therefore, is that edu cation shall direct itself to the peculiar needs of country chil dren w i t h a view to making them happy and useful citizens of country life.' ’ A Council on Rural Educa tion has been organized by the Rosenwald Fund, composed of 20 leaders in education and so cial afafirs, chiefly from the South where the rural school work is being carried out as a continuation of the Fund's long interest in Negro schools. The present program, how ever, is not restricted to Ne groes, but concerns the whole school systems of rural areas. Important activities of the Fund and the sums spent on them during the past two years: Negro education (in cluding schools, colleges, and fellowships) $330,000; Negro health, $95,000; race relations and social studies, $200,000; general education, $120,000; li brary extension, $100,000; medical services, $190,000.
