THE 75th ANNIVERSARY OF THE Dempsey, Finance Secretary, S. G.
EMANCIPATION PROCLAMA- Baker, A. M. E. Review, A. P. Pos-
TION TO BE OBSERVED tell for the Bishopric for 1940.
I wish to call our attention to the
facts as they are. We have four or five
men in the race for the bishopric. We
know that all of us cannot be elected.
I think we should get together and set-
tle on one man, and each try to foce the
other out of his way. If we cannot
get together, I think Dr, S. A. Harris
should by our Bishop’s consent call a
meeting and let the state decide on a
man, There is no need of the waste of
money, with four or five men in the race
for one thing in one state. All of the
former candidates know that I will help
any man that the state gets behind,
and will not sleep as long as there is
any thing to do. And I will appreciate
the help of any and all. CANDIDATES,

Bethel A. M. E. Church was held Sun-
day and Monday, January 23-24, De-
spite the inclemency of the weather. the

submit their reports for the last three
months. The Presiding Elder, Dr. R.

the members, for the splendid work
that had been accomplished this quarter.
The church is well organized and

FLORIDA PARAGRAPHS
Five years ago our tallest Cedar in
the A. M. E. Church, Bishop J. S.
Flipper. We shall never forget the
eight years that he and his queenly
wife labored with us. All the whole A.
M. E. Connection knows that the men
of Florida, have always tried to show
their highest respects for all of our
Bishops. Bishop R. A. Grant came to
us as one of our own sons, Truly he is
a philosopher. “A philosopher, is one
who explains or governs facts and
events. Bishop Grant came to us, al-
though he is a native of Florida, he is
both CONSCIOUS AND COURAGE-
OUS in the performance of his duties
to Florida and the Connection. He gave
to the Orlando, Fla. Conference a great
day’s work, so much so, that we men of
Florida feel that all of us want to be
Bishops.
We had great. sermons and lectures,
