Sun day night in First Methodist church, Dr. J. I Mi. Culbrcth, the pastor, said, in part: "When we say ‘Our Father,’ as Jesus taught, us to do, it is impossible to think of ourselves in terms of class distinctions, or of compassions, as su perior, inferior, high, low, worthy, un worthy. If the world in which wc live can he considered the product, of in telligence and good will it must he because the ‘Father of our Lord Jcslus Christ’ is at the heart of it. If his fatherhood lights the star that shines in the sky it. also kindles the spark that, burns in every human breast. When his children think of themsel ves as brothers they become brothers in deed and in truth. “So William Capers thought, and became brother to the slave. He him self caught the fire from the breast of a slave preacher, Henry Evans, who preached to Negroes and whites together at Fayetteville. Asked to lead in extending the ministry to all slaves. Capers labored so effectively that when he died in 18,5 there were 26 stations in South Carolina alone, with 11.546 members to whom 32 preachers ministered at a. cost of $25,000.00 aiir anally. “After the Separation in 1814 of tiro Methodists in the South from (he Methodists in the North, the Negro members of the Methodist Church in the Soutli were set apart in a church of their own. the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church. They were given al Ihc property that had been used for their benefit,, and they adopted the same doctrines and form of govern ment that the Methodist Episcapl Church. South, used. From that time on, the parent church has aided the Negro church in building schools, training a ministry and teachers and in establishing relations with sources of support. “Two lessons may ire learned from Capers’ career and its results. First, The Christian will not obstruct, the way of any man who strives to at tain the abundant life. Second, on the contrary, the Christian will help to make a better way for the feet of every man who struggles toward the light. These principles are fundamen tal. Accepted and practiced they will solve the question of race relations around the world.” FI REMEN CAJLLED TO SMALL ROOF BLAZE Firemen were called shortly after 9 o’clock this morning to the home of J. T. Mitchell on Highland avenue and eilinguished a. roof blaze without ma terial damage. The fire was though* to have been caused by a spark from the flue. Fire Chief E. T. Shepherd said Tic did not think the damage was sufficient to record. The house is owned by Clyde Thorne. CeSSS ..fjg mn & J /» Real Evidence!
