Bowman This reporter went to Sydney Paik C. M. E. church in. Columbia Sunday morning to worship and to hear is. pastor, Dr. J. C. Colclough, preach his Mother's Day sermon. Upon entering the church friend Boozer, thp leading steward | invited us in the pulpit, but we 1 decline, rather sit in the pews | wh?re we could enjoy the service | .better. ? I Dr. Colclc/ugh -j?poke from the ! subject "MotheV of Meji". After | explaining the life of Hannah and | the results that comes from a ! pure life, he told the mothers in | no uncertain term, if they would jj rear ideal children that the world ; would look upon them with pride, : they must themselves tower ahn-v?-those homes who take up the car pet to dance on. They must tow; or above the homes where the ~ red flash of whiskey is seen and 1 they must he women or mucn < prayer. He continued and aaid J TGod was looking for a man to set- ' | tie the European troubles, using ? I Moses and other Prophets for il- 1 lustrations and -deelared that God < will not use a Jelly-fish man. > This sermon was one of mucn study and thought, though non. a 1 member of his denomination, but j frank to admit that he is one of ' the greatest?preachers in Columbia. Our information is Dr. Col- ' ctough got his foundation from our dear Allen university, graduated from Paine in Augusta and < studied in the University of Chicago. We further understand that he?was editor of the Chris- ] tinn?Index, his denomination paper of his church. If we have any criticism to offer, it is he didn't call for the reception of members to join the church or perhaps there may havl? been some who -maj have -requested prayer, if the op(portunity was presented, after making -Mi^h roiiginug?impro irifttt... .upon -his - hearers. In the afternoon we went to Rawley Chapel church, where we met the acting pastor and othei preachers, the crowd was small, it was raining. After making our remarks we hasten on to Houkins _ where Mr. and Mrs. Goodson had one of the best dinners v.c had in many moon.
