STKAYHAND • *********« < *« « < « « *< * In many sections of the coun try and many churches Race Relations Day is norm ally cele brated on the Sscond Sunday in February. This has always tied in very well with what was Negro H istory and is now Black H istory week or month. A little boy in school was asked by his teacher, "W hat is the m e a n in g of race relatio ns?" His reply, "Race Relations is when you treat peo ple of other races as if they were your K insfolk.” M ost of us would hope it would lie kinsfolk you like very much. Many years ago when I had my fir s t pastorate in a small town in the south, 1 found a young Baptist m inister in the town who wanted co do something about Improving race relations. We had a r r anged fo r an exchange of pulpit. 1 would preach in his church on the second Sunday in Feb ruary and he would preach in my church on the second Sun day in June. Then I proposed that we bring a ll the members of our respective c h u r c h e s that wanted to come with their m inister on the days we preach ed. He agreed, but both of us had to take it up with the officers of our churches to prevent shock. Before the second Sunday in Febm ary 1 was informed by him that 1 could come and preach but, — so I never preached at that church. Then I realized someone had to be the lead e r so 1 invited him to my church in June with as many people as would come. T h e y came. 1 gave my older ushers a rest that day because i found that they believed that certain v is ito rs should be assigned c e r- . tain seats. The youth worked as ushers that day and they had a m ixture of colors that even the tournament of roses cannot match. When I served as Chaplain in the m ilita ry service we real ly had a problem as to how to celebrate race relations day when the people were already integrated. 1 could not preach all the other chapels on that day so how could we had race relations s p irit. • * * * * * * It was p a rtia lly solved by having Jewish ctiaplains and protestant ctiaplains a nd Catho lic chaplains to appeal on the same programs and ex change speaking engagements during die month of February. the Cinnamon B’ s Fashion.
