Sunday evening at Grace Memcrial Baptist church, Rev. Walter Gay spoke on the topic, Things on Which ‘We Should Think, taking for his text the folioving: “Whatsoever things are. true, what- soevar things honest, . whatgoever things just. whatsoever things are pure, whatscever things _are. lovely, whatsoever things a: of good report; if there ba any virture, and if there be an; p.r #e, think on these things.” Phil. He said these words are applicable {0 the present conditions of our coun- try, political civil, moral and religlous, ‘They conatitute tho basis of thought and framework of action for all true, bouorable, vpright men and women. They are ihe things on which we ought to think. For as a people of & nation or a state or a city or a ra thinketh in heir hearts, so will th act. With the telegraph and the news- Daper operaling so successfully as they do, we as & people ought to be a power for gobd in _moulding the thought of the coming generation. But alas; I fear we are handing down {0 them a legacy of evil thoughts and leaving them the portrait of blemished characte What is the meaning of all this dissatisfaction and unrest in politich? Whny are we trying this new idea of government by commis- sion? Is it nct because those who ws- pire to political office violate their promises to the people, and use their Dosition for selfish zain? What of the murders committed in our own coun- try; yes, the atrocious murders of in- nocent men, law. abiding citizens for political power, why are the rights of cltizenship denied one-eightl of the native-born American citizens, and not a volee raised in protest by tmose holding high political office? Is mot life as dear at home as it is abroad? If a nation cannot protect her citizem at homa what righ: has she to meddie with the affairs of other nations? What of the turmoil in social circles? Has virtue taken to herself wings and flown to other realm, or is modesty and seif-respect obsolete terms? Why are the postmasters sending out no- tices about the use of the general de- lvery by minora? Has the home lost its grip on the children? Is there no charm about the hearth place in these days of hurry? Is the social eircle the mere sounding of brass or the tinkling of cymbals: iz it the croaking of the | croaker or the howiing of the deceiver; this volcani: eruption in the mocial life? Nay, verily—It is the sound of distant thunder, .the voice ot destruc- tion and nat of peace and happinese. It means a repetition of the scenes of destruztion which resulted in Lhe down fall of many of the nations of the old world. What about parental author- is it not woefully lax, our childrer are men and women now, and we are often called’ to bow our heads {n sheme and disgrace® What shall be dome to arrest the tide evil; what shall w> do to purify our politics, to rectify the wrongs of civil government, and to cleanse the heart of soclety from its moral defilement and heal its putrefactions? I reply, to_take heed to the text. We as citizens of this government owe it to eurselves, to our homes, and to our country, and to our ‘God, to speak and work against falsehood and dishonesty in our politicians, to eliminate it from our polltical parties, and to cleanse the grest throbbing heart of our nation from the foul pu- trefaction. Give us men who love the truth and reverence God and we will have a pure baiiot box, and the humblest citizen wiil have a right, and that right safeguarded. 1f the negro race is ta enjoy the rights of citizenship in this country, it must have education,. en- lightenmen:, refinement and character, Let the Fatherhood of God and the brotharhood of man finG a place in the business affairs, and there will be no more war hetween capital and labor. My brethren, if you love justice, rise “p in your mind, and in the name of our God, and defeni it. Defend it by your homesty, defend it by truthful- ness, defenc it by vour homest.char- acter. Defend it by ‘the law, for if justice is surrendered our Itberties' are gone. What we need most of all it sturdy Christian manhoed that will not falter when justice is being slaugh- tered on the porta's of greed and Ii centiousness, Think on these thing: because the God-given rights of man are being denied him by the few, who seek to fatier him with the serfdom.
