; NEGRO CHURCH SERVICE'S
'\ I a malmost persuaded to believe
that the length of most Negro
religious services destroys the
good that should be accomplished
Now I know Negroes service can?
not be held in the same period of
time as the whites, because of the
method of collection. A whiter"
congregation will respond with its
offerings in five or ten minutes
when some of our colored congregations
will take a whole hour.
But to say nothing of the collection,
my opinion is that most ev\
erything in a Negro service is too
long, f irst the preacher preaches
too long. (Many times when ly
' i should be down to amen, he ?=>
just warming up to firstly with
j four other topics to discuss. When
his message is finished the people
' who have not gone home are as
' mad as wet hens. Far too many
of our preachers are not satisfied
with an impression, which would
be lasting but they must have an
excitement which is short lived.
There is absolutely nothing in excitements
even^ihen it comes to
revivals. The nagain our singing
is too long I have known where
eight songs were sung by several
choirs plus four numbers by tw
quarets to get a collection of one
dollar and a half. Again tnc appeal
for collection is too I.pngMost
prayers offered in our Sun
day services are too long. Nc
kind erf service can be -impressivi
. . if its too long. Its needless tc
say anything about most Negroes
all day funerals for it will take thi
egislature to fiix the time in whicl
they must be held. But it ap

f
TWO CONVENTIONS '. i
1
We attended the Geoigetown v
Xlf Plnnnnnf T~>i<tiirts Sunday
School conventions last week and
both were record breakers to say
the least. Dr. T. J. Miles and Dr.
J. E. Thomas, are the respective '
presiding elders. The former it.
th? acknowledged leader of the <
Palmetto conference and is des- <
tihed to be a bishop-in the A. M. <
I E< church, May, 194U. Dr. J. E. i
I Thomas is one of the most popu!
lar presiding elders, ill the_ state,
j Dr. J. L. Benbow head of the 1
1 Kingstree district of which 1 am
! a member attended both of these
meetings and electrified them with
beautiful messages. Dr. Hen bow
is one of the most ablest preachers
in thn state, and has held the
best appointments including his
present one. AH of?them?are-4
fking the voters to send them to
e general eonferench which is
eir perfect right. Most all oi
the leading pastors of JJie conference
are also in the rati; including"
this poor scribe. And so far as
I "aril concerned its only a chance
with me. ~Ntr w has promised or
paid me a dime to write. I have
always written my convictions ot
riven and measures and that every
man in the state and church will i
admit if they have anyrespect for 1
the truth.-i When I was in the!
Columbia conference I did as!
, much to carry delegates as they
did to carry me. In fact it takes
>a combination to carry anyone to
I the general conference, and while
no ticket has been made with me,
I can safely say 1 will* get one
' vote in Georgetown next Octc ber
? if no more. Revs.- L. D. Gamble
