"i-^411.. : .J- ' A ~ a __ rhomas Realizing The Risen Christ In the fifth recorded appearance of Christ tib His disciples Thomas was one of them, was not present. We can not say why he was not present. We do know he was not present at their regulai meeting place, and of the wonder ful meeting Thomas missed. Jesus opened the scripture to them and gave them commission of service. And after the appearanct the disciples in their joy and esLasy tell Thomas about the meet-ing with Jesus. He refused to believe and tol them that uness he could see the prints in his hands, and put hi finger in the prints, he would no believe. So after eight days Thorn as was with them in the sai meeting place and the Lord appeared. He turned to Thoma: and bade him evamjnn thii miuTi i di nis Crucifixion as he had desired and be not faithless but believe. What is the lesson of the Risen Ix>rd here? He appears in spiritual presencte to those who meet Him at thee appointed places of worship?the church, the family altar nrut thn nhnt pi i. vate dervotion. Orre~ wtia LiEa Thomas attends the privileges of worship occasionally misses the presence of Christ. " Church attendance is one of the 1 * uaromeiers or the church. The family altar is a standard by which we may judge of the spirituality of our homes. Paul's admonitioi still holds good today: Forsake not the assembling of yourselvei together. To worship Him by a faithful attendance upon our public and piivare deviations, is *to make the Risen Lord more rea* to us. Lord it is my chief complaint That my love is weak and faint 0 I love Thee adore Thee; 0 for grace_to love Thee more.

But different individuals see the same subject in different ways. I hope I will not be thought disrespectful "to-"any of you if my opinions are opposite yours. Many year? ago I learned that the true difference between individuals is t be found in small details of every day life and not in the shape of skulls or the juxtaposition of molars. No ace has shown itself mor< capable of acquiring civilization than the Negro. Under slavery for 244 years and a free race for only about 77 years. There are a vast number of Negro colleges and "universities with A rating, theii graduates are accepted by leading graduates and uniyersities for pro fcjcionnl ii'nrlf TK? nrpeiHsnts of almost all of our 69 colleges and univessitie$ ^re Negro***!. The N~egroes in professional sevices numbered 100,000 in 1930. The population of the Negro race num bered about 14,000,000 in fact every tenth person in the U. S. A. is a Negro^__ Booker T. Washington once said One third of the population of the South is of the Negro race, no enterprise seeking the social, political and. civic betterment of this section can be a success without considering this element of oui papulation. Mrrat of?the?professional people don't know about the existing conditfbns, unless they are doing some kind of field work. Of course I believe that the dignity of labor depends on not what you do, but on how you do it. In 1934 the late Dr. John Hope nu'fi prusmym ur Atianui university said, nearly three fourths of the Negro children never advance beyond fourth grade due to seasonal schooling, lack of equipment and teaching facilities. This means that the majority of Negro adults being fourth graders sr less never receive the elementary ideas and skill necsssary to cope effectively with even the ninimum demands of our society. If we could live in a society where * person is accepted for what he >r she is individually and not sole y for his occupation, I do believe when one man step upward all would do like-wise. Individually ive are progressing but collective- fv we are nol7 To bp sure the plight of the Negro is still disi ear toning. With hundreds of N, fro children in every stat*. of th* jnion out of school. In order fof. he professional man to get somie vhere he must tak^ his iesa fortunate brother along *with him \s has ?o well . been stated no ;hain is stronger than its weak >st link.
