"To Sezar"

A precept which black, benign Major J. ("Father") Divine, Harlem cultist, enjoins upon his followers is that all stolen goods should be returned to their rightful owners, all old debts be paid to creditors. Since Father Divine attained a following many a U. S. merchant, especially in the South, has testified that many a black man's long-forgotten debt has indeed been liquidated. In Harlem last week one Famaca Real, a Divine follower, took pen & paper, laboriously composed a letter. She had once purchased goods on credit in Pittsfield, Mass., could no longer recall the merchant's name. So to all the shop-keepers of that city Famaca Real wrote asking that one Sezar get in touch with her. Said she:

"I am asking you reply so as to pay my former bill. I want to pay it as Father Divine says pay to Sezar what belongs to Sezar and to God what belongs to God.''*

*Said Jesus Christ to the Pharisees: Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's. --Matthew 22:21.
