Program At Lor
BY MATT1E HEWETT
An Emancipation Proclamation
program began at 12 noon Jan. 1 at

Herring is
pastor. 3Gj
The jubilant

sang "God of Our * , , B
Fathers" and
"Battle Hymn of 1Vt_.--r 1
the Republic" v. f
before the scripture
was read by the pastui.
Two poems recited by Deacon
Joseph Butler left all of those who
listened filled with heartwarming
gratitude.
Mrs. Zelphia Grissett, guest
speaker, spoke on the Emancipation
Proclamation, which was issued Jan.
1, 1863, when Abraham Lincoln
declared no more slavery.
Freedom is the most wonderful experience
that a slave has ever known
sxcspt for accepting Jesus as ones
personal saviour. He's the one who
gives us that blessed hope as we often
sing "We Shall Overcome."
Harriet Tubman, Helen Keller and
Fredr ick Douglas were among others
who helped to free the slaves.
During the program two large plaques
were presented to Deacon
Patrick Stanley and Mrs. Annie R.
Bryant, in recognition of devoted
commitment, meritorious service
and demonstrated abilities to sustain
the national philosophy and programs
of NAACP and for their support
of the association's fight for
freedom aimed at eliminating all
racial discrimination in our national
and local life and for their generous
contributions to the NAACP financial
appeal.
Benjamin E. Hooks is executive
director and Rev. Julius C. Hope is
director of religious affairs.
