Let's Go! This College, established to of
fer full College Courses for young wo
men of the Negro race, will open its sec
ond year, September 15,1925.
It is the only Presbyterian Woman's
College for colored women in the world.
Like the colleges exclusively for women,
it encourages the ideals of true women
and offers courses of study for young
women such as the best women demand,
and such as prepare them for their spe
cial work. Through the noble generosi
ty of its founders with Presbyterian
ideals, Barber College makes it easier
for a girl with energy and ability to be
come a College Graduate, and reach her
highest usefulness.
Graduates, obtaining the College Di
ploma, will be able to meet the increased
requirements of the State Boards of Ed
ucation, and be fitted for all conditions
set for teaching and higher studies.
With an enlarged Faculty and increased
facilities, Barber College offers to capa
ble Negro women a great opportunity
for higher development, usefulness, and
privilege.
With it is associated Barber Memorial
Seminary which will continue to offer its
secondary courses of study and also act
as a Preparatory School for the College.
All the advantages of the Seminary, with
its able Faculty, increased facilities, and
attractive surroundings, will be open to
students of the College.
Located in the foot-hills of the Blue
Mountains in Northeastern Alabama,
the situation is unsurpassed. It would be
difficult, if not impossible, to find a bet
ter school building. Large rooms. Two in
a room. Steam heated. Electric lighted.
Newly furnished throughout. Modern in
every way. Plain, but plenty of food. Ab
solutely pure mountain spring water,
none better. Large Faculty. Small class
es. Personal supervision.
For further information, address the
President, Rev. John F. Scherer.

_ “WALKING WITH GOD.” _
On Sunday A. M., November
1, we were pleased to have
with us Rev. W. M. Fowlkes,
•f Leakesville, N. C., who is
now pastor of Henry Presbyte
rian church, Saxe, Va. He
preached from Gen. 5:22-25,
using for his sdfoject, “Walk
ing With God,”
\
If we walk with God we
must please Him. We must
take Him for our companion.
If we have an earthly friend,
we love to walk and talk with
that friend; how much more
should we love ; to walk and
talk with Jesus Christ? We
must take Him for our real
companion. The great truth
which Rev. Fowlkes endeav
ored to bring us was, We can
not walk with God until we
know Him; and we cannot
know Him as long as we stay
away from Him.
All men fell with Adam and
lost communion with God; and
before we can walk with God
we must become reconciled
with Him. He held up for a
true example of pleasing and
walking with God, Enoch, who
never saw or felt the sting of
death, but pleased God so
much that one day as they
were walking God took him
home with Him, both soul and
body.
He assured the hearers that
if they walk with God they
will please Him, and will treat
their fellowmen right in all
things; and that God, when
they shall have finished this
life, will walk with them
through the dark valley of the
shadow of death, and that His
rod and staff will comfort
them. Oh, that the whole
world could have heard this
wonderful message!
Sister Louise Jones was bap
tized and given the right hand
of fellowship. Communion ser
vices were held. Though un
worthy we be, looking to
Jesus, who is able to make us
worthy ,we feasted off of the
elements which were used
symbolically as the broken
body of Jesus Christ and His
precious blood which He shed
on the cross of Calvary for
sinners.

HUNTERSVILLE CHURCH
NOTES.
By Mrs. M. J. Phifer
Our congregation was very
small on last Sunday morning.
This was due to the rainy
weather. Rev. R. L. Moore, in
spite of the bad weather, filled
the pulpit and preached an inr
spiring sermon from the text,
Luke 23:28.
This being rally day for the
church a liberal collection was
taken by the deacons.
At 8:30 P. M., Rev. J. J.
Foster, pastor of Caldwell
church, and several of his
members were present. Rev.
Foster preached an excellent
sermon from Exodus 3:5. His
subject was “Holiness.”
The rally closed with a to
tal contribution of $79.30.
The growth of the Christian
Endeavor is remarkable.
We are glad to say that our
mid-week prayer service is
taking on new life.
Sunday night, October 11th,
the missionary women ren
dered a beautiful program. Our
program was opened with mu
sical selections by the choir.
After these most excellent
songs there was Scripture
reading by Mrs. C. W. John
ston. Then prayer by Mrs.
Anna Black, the President of
the Missionary Society of the
A. M. E. Zion church.
Mrs. M. J. Phifer, after ex
tending words of greeting to
the audience, discussed the
subject of Prayer and Mis
sions.
az xms time we were nigmy
favqjred with a well prepared
paper read by Mrs. N. Bell,
subject, “Requirements of
Christian Stewardship.”
Then Mrs. Hattie Allison
read a splendid and rich paper,
subject, “Our Duty as Mission
aries in the Church and Com
munity.”
A special feature of the
evening was a poem, “Giving,”
by Miss Annie Williams. The
program was closed with a
song, “Like a Tree Planted by
the Waters.”
At this point we were fa
vored by some encouraging re
marks by Rev. Moore, Elder
Phifer, 0. G. Potts and C. W.
Johnston.'
The collection was taken by
Mrs. Ida Black and Mrs. Os
borne. The amount collected
was $16.86.
Rev. Moore, our pastor, to
our surprise, delivered a nice
sum of money which had been
sent by him from the Mission
ary women of Biddleville Pres
byterian church, Charlotte.
These consecrated women
heard the Macedonian cry and
immediately they endeavored
to help us.
We are glad to note that the
Huntersville Rosenwald school
opened with a delightful num
ber of pupils. The school is in
charge of Rev. J. H. Gamble.
We are pleased to know that
Rev. and Mrs. R. L. Moore
have moved into their new
home located in Huntersville
near the church. The day
they moved was rainy and
cold, but the Missionary wo
men were there long before
they came and had their rooms
heated and a hot, steaming din
ner that made them feel at
home.
NOTES FROM BROAD ST.
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH,
STATESVILLE.
By M. E. Woods
Our church is doing well.
Dr. A. D. Lord is superinten
dent of the Sunday school. This
is the beginning of an era in
the church and promises im
provement in many respects.
On the first Sunday in Oc
tober Rev. J. M. Morton, of
Salisbury, and his congrega
tion worshipped with us at 3
o’clock P. M. Rev. Morton
preached an excellent sermon
and the choir sang well their
pieces.
The occasion was a financial
rally by the club of Mr. T. M.
Allison, who was one of the
captains for a church rally
held October 18 which was
very successful.
On Tuesday night, October
6, Rev. H. Wilson, pastor of
Westminster congregation, of
Concord, began a series of
meetings for us which extend
ed through Sunday, Nov. 1.
His sermons were very inter
esting and powerful. The
people of Westminster have a
good, strong preacher. We
hope that Rev. Wilson will
come again.
At three o’clock on Sunday,
October 11, Dr. Z. A. Dock
ery and his congregation wor
shipped with the Stern’s chap
el congregation near States
ville. Dr. Dockery preached
from the text, Matt. 25:14.
The subject was: “Man and
His Talent Before God.”
The W. H. and F. M. Socie
ty met October 8. We had a
grand meeting. We had with
us Rev. H. Wilson and he gave
us a grand talk on Mission
Work. It awakened us to a
sense of our duty. We are
doing good work. We meet
Thursday of each week.
Rev. Croom of the First
Baptist church, and his good
people worshipped with us
Wednesday night, November
4th.
The Billingsley Memorial
Academy is moving along nice
ly. They have put in a new
furnace and 100 new desks.
Rev. Dockery and his corps of
teachers are doing splendid
work. They seem to have the
school at heart.
We were glad to have with
us the first Sunday of Novem
ber during the Sunday school
hour Rev. N. Bell, of Hunt
ersville. He gave us a very
good talk on Sunday school
methods and on the Africo
Aroerican Presbyterian. We
will be pleased to have him
come again.

of the town are making pro
gress. The P. C. I. of which
Prof. J. H. Thomas is principal,
is doing a special work for its
people, and for all who attend.
The public or graded school
is largely attended. Prof. Pet
ty and eight teachers are very
busy striving to do their part
in the educational program.
Grace Presbyterian school is
doing what she can to Impress
those under her instruction,
spiritually, morally, and intel
lectually. Rev. Watkins is prin
cipal. Mrs. Watkins, Mrs. S. J.
H. Dillard and Miss Annetta
Ramseur make up the teaching
force. Miss Ramseur, class of
'25, Scotia Women’s College,
comes to us well prepared, not
only in the literary branches,
but in music, domestic science,
and sewing. She is th$ leader
for the Westminster Guild Cir
cle. We are sure that our
young people will be able to ac
complish more in the future by
having a well prepared young
leader to assist them.
Our Woman’s Missionary So
ciety, under the leadership of
Mrs. G. P. Watkins, is moving
along nicely. We are hoping to

are confident that a brick

will supply our whole need. We
have succeeded in raising one
thousand dollars towards our
church building fund. We are
working and praying for what
we need.
It is quite urgent to our
whole Synodical, through its
Presbyterials, that we send our
money quarterly, and that we
strive to pay our whole appor
tionment.
Please get busy, every local
President and Secretary, and
try to arouse your society as
never before to this urgent du
ty so that a full report can be
made by each Pre§byterial So
ciety. Let us not forget that
the call of the nations is for ser
