DR. C. H. PARRISH SPEAKS IN SUPPORT OF COLORED BUSINESS Urges The Support Of Negro Doctors, Lawyers, Printing Establishments And All Race Business In Sermon Dr. C. H. Parrish, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church at 5th and York Streets delivered one of the greatest sermons heard in these parts in many moons in support of Negro business. It is reported that Dr. Parrish urged all those who sat under his voice, to support the colored Lawyer, Doctor, Druggist, Grocer, Banker, Insurance Companies, Real Estate man and all business owned and operated by the Negro. It is claimed that he made a special appeal in interest of the Negro press and grew eloquent as he told the many reasons why race publishers and printing houses should be patronized. When letterheads, envelopes, business cards, tickets, circulars, dodgers, bill heads, statements, minutes, books and all other matter is needed by churches, lodges, institutions, or organizations, business men, and all other individuals who have printing of some sort done from time to time carry their business to the Negro printer admonished the pastor in the course of his great sermon. Dr. Parrish is not only pastor of Calvary, but is President of State University, President of the Kentucky Home Society and connected with other institutions and organizations with a yearly printing output reaching into hundreds of dollars. Ninety per cent of the printing done by Negroes and the institutions with which they are connected never reaches a Negro print shop, but can always be found bearing the inscription of printing places that mean absolutely nothing to the Negro and his advancement, printing places that would hardly employ a colored boy or girl as porter or errand girl, let alone stenographers, book keepers, linotypists, compositors, preef readers, pressmen, foremen or managers. Such a sermon as that of Dr. Parrish should be preached from some pulpit every Sunday. Entire South Interested In Methodists Negro Programs Down in "Ole Virginny" His Excellency E. Lee Trinkle, Gov.ernor of Virginia spoke to a packed house recently at the Ebenezer Baptist Church and he gave sound advice to the Colored people assembled there. His words made a profound impression and steps are under way to have him greet his fellow citizens again. He is proving himself to be a master of oratory and a statesman of "the first water." We were in New York at the time and greatly regretted our inability to be present to meet this official who recognizes the fact that he is Governor of all the people. The people of Virginia made no mistake when they elevated him to the high office which he now occupies and indications are that he will be drafted for higher honors. - Richmond Planet Colored Section Wiped Out; Two Thousand Homeless Million Dollar Fire Leaves Mass of Burned Debris Three-quarters Of Mile Long and Two Blocks Wide Other's Accept Leader's Premium Offer The short period of time taken for Mrs. O.B. Matthews, prominent Louisville woman securing 7 new subscriptions to the Leader and thereby putting herself in a position to receive a set of the 42 piece dishes given away by the Leader to all readers and friends who secure 7 new subscribers, has inspired many others to attempt the provosition, and during the week letters have come from in and out of the city, from those who would attempt the little effort. Reports from many of those who have accepted the offer are encouraging, a large number having from two to six subscriptions, and it is only a matter of a few days before the names of a number of well known persons will appear as having secured their seven subscribers entitling them to a set of the dishes.

Be it resolved that this body endorse the movement that is being put forth by these officers, and that we render any assistance necessary as may become a body of ministers to blot out this great demon of strong drink.
