It was Sunday, a crystal
dear day cross-country. Except
for an icy bite in the winter
breeze, the day, weather-wise,
was a perfect conclusion to the
8-day, 12th anniversary salute
to Dr. Grady D. Davis.
The honoree was fit as a
fiddle and ready for the action;
the wear and tear of the past
week, apparently, had left no
traces of battle fatigue. He was
sharp as a tack in a bluish gray
business suit with a snazzy
matching bow tie; skin smooth
and glowing from a recent
massage; and a smile sunny;
enough to raise the hope of the
most dejected.

Fellowship hall and the
kitchen buzzed with activity
lone before the 9:30 Sunday
School hour began. The Senior
Choir was making preparations
for its annual fellowship dinner
and Dr. William Borders and
his guests. A Christmas tree
and ail the trimmings was an
anachronism on January 11,
but. the tantalizing fragrant
odors of yeast rising dough,
ice4 ham, poultry seasonings
were with it now.
Seemingly, the early
morning hours donned eagle
DR. WILLIAM BORDERS
wings and flew fat toward the
hour to begin the culmination
of the 12 anniversary
. celebration of Dr. Davis
(1964-76). Theme: 'The Small
' Man w ith the Lion's Voice" -Foster
R. IzL
Dr. Davis' staff of associate
ministers were in charge of the
service; Rev. Lottie B. Kee,
presiding; pulpit associates;
; Rev. Essex Fields, Rev. John
Caldwell, Rev. Foster B. IzL
deacon D. H. Hicks, Govenor
Bornes and Rev. Charles H.
Kirk. Music was under the
direction of Grover Wilson, Jr.,
minister of music, and Howard
Hill. The Junior and Senior
Male Choruses sang . ' O How I
Love Jesus" the congregational
hymn of praise set the tempo
of this auspicious service. The
eyes of most of the
congregatants were riveted to
the tall, austere, scholarly man
wearing a pearl- white satin
robe trimmed with a red scarf;
the Dr. William Holmes
Dorders, minister of Wheat
Street Baptist Church, Atlanta,
Georgia. Like the other persons
making up his cortege, Dr.

DR. GRADY DAVIS
The call to pastoral prayer
was conducted by Rev. Lottie
B. Kee. 'My Profile of Dr.
Grady D. Davis' was portrayed
by Ava Best. The introduction
of guest minister was executed
by Rev. Charles H. Kirk.
Dr. William Borders
delivered a brilliant message
based on the subject
"Adversities and Universities." In
a conversational tone, the
educator of renown, author,
radio and television evangelist
painted a vivid picture of the
Negroes' adversities in arriving
at the universities. "It was
necessary for the Negro to get
to the university. In so doing,
he is in a position to help
himself and , the Negro race.
God never called a fool to do
his work.' The soft spoken
speaker cited Dr. Davis as an
outstanding example of one
who over came his adversities,
completed his education in one
of America's finest universities.
"Davis didn't forget his
adversities after he had
prepared himself for a better
way of life; he is also helping
others find a better way of
life." It has taken the prayers
and ..cussing of our parents to
get us through our adversities
to the universities and we
should not forget where we
came from nor how we got
where we are. Remember thy
brother who is trying to
overcome his adversities and
give a helping hand. A few
token greats arc not enough to
say we have arrived and can
survive. In all thy getting nevdr
forget God our Help in Ages
Past, now, and forevermore.
. The Senior Choir's annual
Christmas Fellowship Dinner
orbited into a historical, event
this year. W. C. Young,
president welcomed the
opportunity to host the pastor,
Dr. Davis, the illustrous Dr.
' Borders, his many friends and
the host of visitors who came
to exchange greetings with the
honoree and the guest minister.
Chairman Yoang ably hosted
the program aspects of the
dinner party and was
instrumental in seeing that the
food service was kept on a par
excellent level throughout the
dinner hour. Rcv.Mrs. A. B.
Mack of Morehead Baptist
Church was among the many
guest celebrants.
While the gala affair rapidly
came to an end, the
Coordination Committee
compared notes, made
preparations to finalize the
8-day salute with a big bang.
At 2:45 the committee trailed
the party-makers upstairs to
the sanctuary where Mrs.
Annie E. Daniels was busy with
preparations for the evening
service.

Is Anniversary Speaker
MRS. HARRIET WRIGHT
Mrs. Harriet S. Wright, a
member of the Asbury Temple
Methodist Church, and a 5th
grade teacher in the Fayetteville
Street Elementary School in
Durham, delivered the sixth
anniversary address for the Life
Member Crusade Council at the
Kyles Temple A. M. E. Zion
Church last Sunday.
Mrs. Wright spoke from the
topic "Can I Make a Diference?
" Her thoughts were based on
the book of Esther from the
Bible. She told the group that,
' With a concerted effort, we can
make a difference." "If we can
produce missiles, send a man to
the moon, we certainly ought to
be able to feed the thousands of
young children in the world who
must fight rats for their meals
ev;ry day," she said. She said
that man keeps his offsprings
longer than any other animal in
the world and that God expects
us to do something with them.
In closing, she said, Esther
did not go at it alone, , she called
all the Tribes together and asked
diem to fast. She continued,
"We must call in those who can
help." "Our task is her here
now; it can be done," she said.
' It will not be easy, but if you
have the determination of Esther
when she said '1 go in to sec the
king, which is not according to
law; if 1 perish, 1 perish,' then, it
can be done, and we can make
the difference."
