BISHOP BIBBS TELLS ;
OF PROBLEMS OF WEST '
AFRICAN GOLD COAST
MICNROVIA, Liberia (ANPi -
After having recently com-
" ,p ^d a t'mr of West Africa.
Bishop Carey A. Gibbs, presid¬
ing bishop of the 14th Episco¬
pal d strict oi the A.ncan
Methodist Episcopal church,
advocated a $150,000 rebuilding
program for his area.
He made special mention,
however, of the split in the
Gild Coast area where one of
the church’s two secondary
schools, Christine Smith insti¬
tute, has withdrawn from the
church.
According to the bishop, re¬
ports that the Rev. R. s.
Wright, president of Christine
Smith inst.tute, and pastor of
Bethel AME church, nas with¬
drawn from the church are
true. At present, lie said, the
church is -working to bring the
“lost sheep back into Lie fold."
The school of higher learn¬
ing in this area is Clayborn
college in Sokondi. Both schools
lie said, need better plants and
buildings to house the stu¬
dents.
Speaking of the needs of t‘he
district as a whole, the bishop
said:
‘ According to our findings,
gathered from our personal ob¬
servations and contacts, the
AME church needs today
West Africa an overall re-
habilitation program
not less than $150,000. In my
opinion a program of this mag¬
nitude vigorously and ccnsri-
entiously prosecuted would
bring the AME c'.nirch into her
rightful place in West Africa.
"Your servants on the field,
with the cooperation of the
mother church in America are
committed to such a program."
4th Precinct Meeting
A meeting of the Fourt'h Pre-
cinct will be held at the Rec-
reation Center, 37th street
the Ogeechee road, Mon-
September 5, at 8 p. m.
persons interested in voting
the next election are espec-
invited to attend this
This is a general citi¬
meeting in which the
is invited to participate
M. Gaynor is chairman and
B. Demere, secretary.
IN MEMORY
BAKER-- In sad but loving
memory of our darling boy,
PFC. BEN BAKER, JR.
who departed th's life Sept. 2,
1948, in Sattledt, Germany.
I
One year ago he went away,
To stay ’til we meet some" sweet
day;
We loved him but he had to
go,
'Twas God’s w.ll but we miss
him so.
IT
We miss tils kind and friendly
smile,
A man that stood the test,
We loalne to see God claim His
own,
But our God wants the best.
III
IPs path was rugged and some¬
time dark,
But never he weakened but
stuck to the ark;
Then Jesus descended and took
his weak hand,
Together tney went to the long
promised land.
IV
Farewell kind son, brother,
friend,
Farewell dear blessed soul;
Your world of friends would
keep you here,
It’s out of their control.
So rest on now beside the
throne,
Your head on Jesus breast;
We give you up in Jesus’ care,
Who loves and takes the best.
Sadly missed by your parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Ben Baker, Sr.
Two grandmothers,
Mrs. Rebecca Mitchell
Mrs. Laura Walker
Four sisters, six brothers,
seven uncles, six aunts, 'host of

STAPLETON—In sad but lov¬
ing memory of my son and
devoted brother,
MR. MIDDLETON STAPLETON,
JR.
who departed this life July 29,
1937.
STAPLETON—In memory ot
my devoted husband and my
loving father,
MR. MIDDLETON STAPLETON,
SR.
who departed th'is life Sept. 3,
1946.
How hard we tried to save him,
Prayers and tears were all in
vain,
I wonder why, you had to die.
The blow was hard, the shock
severe.
Out in the silent graveyard,
Beneath the sand and dew,
Not even once forgotten.
In sorrow we’ll think of you.
A beautiful life is ended*
A dear one laid to rest,
Safe in the arms of Jesus.
