Go To Sunday School
Beginning the second week following Easter, America will
observe the ninth annual recognition of National Sunday School
Week (April 13 through 19). Lasting the entire week, this all-faiths
drive is planned with an idea of stimulating the attendance of
every adult and child at the Sunday School of his own choice on
Sunday, April 19th.
Sponsored by the Laymen's National Committee, a non-profit,
non-sectarian organization consisting of men and women from
civic as well as business fields, this worthy project is yearly highlighted 
throughout the entire country.
Laying foundation of faith through the training in religion
for our little ones is all important if we as a nation are to survive
in today's world of paganism and constant conflict. Our Sunday
Schools ore more than mere religious training institutions — they
are a combination of the ministry and lay workers, a happy team,
united in their selfless dedication to an ideal of an ever closer
relation between man and God.

Who Owns The Republican Party?
The Republican party itself is almost synonomous with human
rights, having come upon the political scene of America when the
young republic was struggling for that emphasis in the Constitution, 
to the effect, that all men were created equal and entitled to
the same inalienable rights.
It was born out of a condition that held the republic half slave
and half free. Abraham Lincoln, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Wendell 
Phillips, Henry Ward Beecher and other illustrious names lie
imperishable in the foundation of the Republican party; in that,
the party will always call to mind its early traditions and an unqualified 
sponsorship of free men around the world.
On down through the years, the Republican party adherred
to the principles of human rights. It will be recalled that it wedged 
in between the battle of state rights versus human rights and
was the direct outgrowth of the state righters going too far and
claiming too much—the right to secede from the union.
Not until the gold Rooseveltion era that came on the wave of
modern trends, following a catastrophe that the Republican party
couldn't immediately absolve itself from blame, that the Negro in
a recognizable size became aligned with the Democratic party.
This affiliation helped to keep that party in power for over twenty
years and held fast until it was broken in the last national election
when the. Eisenhower forces was able to dislodge it.
It was generally felt that minority groups had become impatient 
with a system that promised much and produced little in
the line of human rights.
The Republican party, coming into power after nearly a generation 
of trying to impress the American people and minority
groups in particular, that it had a change of heart, has been on
the job at Washington for about two months.
From here it would seem that Democrats are freezing fast to
their former jobs with added assurances that they will continue to
dominate in this section in spite of the fact that the Republican
party is in power.
That the party has been in power only a few weeks, as contended 
by the defenders of the slothfulness, does not add up when
a casual survey would disclose that the party has had twenty
years in which to plan and brief its blueprint.
It would be woefully misleading if we would leave impression 
colored group in this country is satisfied with a
system which openly leaves him out of the equation solely upon
the basis of his color.
These and others are some of the whys that the question
arises daily as to really owns the Republican party.

AMONG THE CHURCHES
HE CAME THAT WE MIGHT
HAVE LIFE...... Sunday morning
is almost universally recognized as
Easter Sunday, the day that Jesus
arose in order that we might inherit
eternal life and receive forgiveness
for our sins.
Easter signifies to those who are
believers of Christ that Christ came
into the world, served, taught, aided
mankind and then died upon the
cross to give us a right to life. It is
a wonderful thing to realize as the
hymn says, "There is a Fountain
Filled With Blood Drawn from
Emmanuel's Vein and Sinners
Plunged Beneath The Flood Loose
All Their Guilty Stains." This
would have been impossible had
not the Christ child come into the
world to redeem man.
As we arise Sunday morning let
us kneel down and send up a very
special prayer. Dear Lord, we thank
Thee for sparing us to see another
Easter morning. We know that we
have not served you just as we
should; we know that we have not
been Just as you would have us to
be.
We know that you have been better 
to us through mercy than we
have been to ourselves: Dear Lord,
we know that we need Thee and that
only through The can we accomplish 
anything...... for all things
are in your power. This morning we
send up a special thanks to Thee
for letting your only begotten son
come into the world and suffer so
that one day we will be able to
come and rest with thee. AMEN.

HE CAME THAT WE MIGHT
HAVE LIFE...... Sunday morning
is almost universally recognized as
Easter Sunday, the day that Jesus
arose in order that we might inherit
eternal life and receive forgiveness
for our sins.
Easter signifies to those who are
believers of Christ that Christ came
into the world, served, taught, aided
mankind and then died upon the
cross to give us a right to life. It is
a wonderful thing to realize as the
hymn says, "There is a Fountain
Filled With Blood Drawn from
Emmanuel's Vein and Sinners
Plunged Beneath The Flood Loose
All Their Guilty Stains." This
would have been impossible had
not the Christ child come into the
world to redeem man.
As we arise Sunday morning let
us kneel down and send up a very
special prayer. Dear Lord, we thank
Thee for sparing us to see another
Easter morning. We know that we
have not served you just as we
should; we know that we have not
been Just as you would have us to
be.
We know that you have been better 
to us through mercy than we
have been to ourselves: Dear Lord,
we know that we need Thee and that
only through The can we accomplish 
anything...... for all things
are in your power. This morning we
send up a special thanks to Thee
for letting your only begotten son
come into the world and suffer so

HE CAME THAT WE MIGHT
HAVE LIFE...... Sunday morning
is almost universally recognized as
Easter Sunday, the day that Jesus
arose in order that we might inherit
eternal life and receive forgiveness
for our sins.
Easter signifies to those who are
believers of Christ that Christ came
into the world, served, taught, aided
mankind and then died upon the
cross to give us a right to life. It is
a wonderful thing to realize as the
hymn says, "There is a Fountain
Filled With Blood Drawn from
Emmanuel's Vein and Sinners
Plunged Beneath The Flood Loose
All Their Guilty Stains." This
would have been impossible had
not the Christ child come into the
world to redeem man.
As we arise Sunday morning let
us kneel down and send up a very
special prayer. Dear Lord, we thank
Thee for sparing us to see another
Easter morning. We know that we
have not served you just as we
should; we know that we have not
been Just as you would have us to
be.
We know that you have been better 
to us through mercy than we
have been to ourselves: Dear Lord,
we know that we need Thee and that
only through The can we accomplish 
anything...... for all things
are in your power. This morning we
send up a special thanks to Thee
for letting your only begotten son
come into the world and suffer so

EMMANUEL EPISCOPAL
CHURCH
FATHER ST. JULIAN A. SIMP-
KINS, JR. RECTOR
HE CAME THAT WE MIGHT
HAVE LIFE...... Sunday morning
is almost universally recognized as
Easter Sunday, the day that Jesus
arose in order that we might inherit
eternal life and receive forgiveness
for our sins.
Easter signifies to those who are
believers of Christ that Christ came
into the world, served, taught, aided
mankind and then died upon the
cross to give us a right to life. It is
a wonderful thing to realize as the
hymn says, "There is a Fountain
Filled With Blood Drawn from
Emmanuel's Vein and Sinners
Plunged Beneath The Flood Loose
All Their Guilty Stains." This
would have been impossible had
not the Christ child come into the
world to redeem man.
As we arise Sunday morning let
us kneel down and send up a very
special prayer. Dear Lord, we thank
Thee for sparing us to see another
Easter morning. We know that we
have not served you just as we
should; we know that we have not
been Just as you would have us to
be.
We know that you have been better 
to us through mercy than we
have been to ourselves: Dear Lord,
we know that we need Thee and that
only through The can we accomplish 
anything...... for all things
are in your power. This morning we
send up a special thanks to Thee
for letting your only begotten son
come into the world and suffer so
that one day we will be able to
come and rest with thee. AMEN.

Republicans play in the current investigation, 
Rep. Davis said it is
after the change in national administration. 
But he said he has no
reason to believe Republicans are
behind the probe.
"I have not heard Republicans
complain," he added.
Rep. Davis said that the Civil
Service Law of 1939 fixed the tenure 
of all first class postmasters at
life and "It's one department where
we need good men to stay on the
job."
"We are fortunate to have a man
of Moreland's character and ability,
who has worked from the ground
up," Rep. Davis said. "He should
welcome the investigation, because
it will give him a clean bill of
health."

Court Bars
Youth From
White School
The
Alabama Supreme Court has upheld
a segregation ruling against a nineyear-old 
boy of Spanish decent because 
his parents were not able to
"prove" they had no Negro blood.
Thus, in affect, Mobile County
school officials, were given authority 
to close the doors of a white
school on the boy because he was
living in a Creole community.
Justice Thomas S. Lawson, said
that under the state's segregation
laws, school officials are required
to provide separate schools for
"colored children" and "no—child
with an appreciable admixture of
Negro blood shall be admitted to a
public school for white children."
The child, Henry Chestang, was
enrolled at the Satsuma elementary
school Land attended class for about
three weeks when protests were
made to the school board.
His parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Michael S. Chestang, filed suit in
October, 1950, asking the court to
require the county to permit their
son to attend the school. But in
February, 1952, Judge Claude A
Grayson dismissed their petition
and threw the base out.
The state contended the boy
could not attend the school because
of racial extraction on the father's

side. The father declared that his
family was mixed with French and
Spanish decent and had no Negro
blood.
Justice Lawson said the burden
was on the parents to show, their
child was entitled to attend a white
school He added the lower court
was not wrong in permitting the
state to show that locally the word
"Creole" is applied to a mixed race
in which Negro blood is present.

THE HEALTH WORLD
FORUM
BY A. E. HORNE, M. D.

The tendency to blame the pelvic
organs for most of the ailments to
which the female flesh is heir, is
traditional: a nervous instability for
example is called "hysteria," as
though the poor unfortunate womb
has anything to do with it. The
cause of backache and headache is
far too frequently attributed to
some real or fancied womb malposition 
or development. When there
are symptoms "such as pain, menstrual 
irregularities, sterility, etc.,
the accusing finger is at once pointed 
to the pelvis. Woman is a complex 
bit of mechanism, all of whose
functions depend upon the delicate
balance of many factors.
As a Gynecologist, I advise a
thorough study of the woman as a
whole: this involves a complete history, 
going back to events occuring
sometimes before she was born, and
certainly including her early environment 
and childhood. This may
bring out some very essential data,
not only concerning physical but
psychological factors which may

well have a profound influence in
her later life. Was she well fed
and taken care of? Was the atmosphere 
of her home a happy one?
How many other children in the
family and that of their health and
attitude? Did she do well in school
or were there handicaps offering
possible insults to her nervous system? 
Was she overshadowed the
by classmates or the records
others members of her family? Was
she spilled and petted, only child,
or was she the neglected backward
one of her family? Was her general
health good, or was she frequently
ailing: what diseases did (he have

campus of Tuskegee Institute. The
occasion was the Eighth Annual
Food Show and Nutrition Institute 
Chefs, restaurateurs, dietitians,

Why even
the nutrition experts 
forgot to
count the calories. 

Many ingenious 
ideas for
garnishes were
demonstrated at

the show, but the one that you
surely want to use to enhance your
Easter main dish is gelatin Easter
eggs. To make this edible garnish,
chip out a hole the size of a penny
at the end of the egg shell. Shake
out the eggs into a bowl to use in
cooking Fill the shell with your,
favorite gelatin salad tinted with
food coloring Let the gelatin chill
and at service time, chip off the
shell to free the gelatin egg.
If you really want to be clever
write each diner's first name on an
egg. To do this soften cream cheese
with mayonnaise and use your cake
decorator to write with. Place the
egg in a nest of parsley around the
main dish.
