AN AFFIDAVIT. The State of Ohio County of Cuyahoga On the 16th day of October, A. D. 1921, before me, the undersigned authority within and for said county, duly authorized to administer oaths, personally appeared Harry C. Smith, who being by me duly sworn, says that he is the editor of The Gazette, a newspaper he has published in the city of Cleveland for more than 38 years, with offices in the Blackstone building; that a year or more before his death Mr. William Dyson came into my office and stated to me that he had been endeavoring to secure a city position for his daughter; that he (Dyson) told me with tears in his eyes, so great was his indignation, that he had called upon Chairman Maurice Maschke and asked him to give his daughter a city position and that said Maschke told him to have his daughter see "Starlight" Boyd. HARRY C. SMITH. Sworn to and subscribed before me by the said Harry C. Smith this 13th day of October, 1921. W. H. FIELDS, JR. Notary Public This is True. Too! Cleveland, O., Oct. 22, '21. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, City. Dear Sir: I am not a resident or voter in the 11th Ward. However, I've read the questionnaire directed at you. The reference to the appointments secured through you, also to your constructive policy, caused me to recall an interview I had, two summers ago, with Mrs. Mitchell (mother of Mrs. Sarah Mitchell Bailey, our oldest teacher in 'point of service) who lauded you at that late date for making the fight which secured the appointment of the first local colored school teacher (who could not pass for white), her daughter. I've lived here all my life, but that was the first I'd heard of it. Only the old residents know of it. (Signed) A Young Friend and Forever Employee. Endorse Smith's Candidacy Hon. Harry C. Smith's candidacy for the City Council in Ward 11 has been endorsed by the Civic League, the Baptist Ministers' Conference, the Cleveland Council of Colored Women, The Unive-sal Negro Improvement Association and 25 churches and other organizations in Ward 11. VOTE FOR ROBERT FISHER, ESQ. Robert Fisher, Esq., an able attorney and good friend of the editor of The Gazette is making splendid progress in his fight to be elected councilman of the $th Ward. His motto, "Home Rule not gang rule for the children, women and men of the $th Ward; no bosses or outside meddlers," is the issue. We cheerfully recommend him to the voters of his ward. Over in the 12th Ward, where many of our voters reside, Attorney Fred E. Wirtschafter is making a red-hot fight for the council and growing in popular favor. He made a fine impression in his speech to twenty-five hundred people at Zion Hill Baptist church, E. 37th near Woodland, Monday night. FEDERAL ANTI-LYNCH BILL WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Dyer anti-lynching bill, imposing, heavy penalties on persons involved in mob action resulting in the taking of life, was ordered favorably reported by the house judiciary committee. The measure as reported provides that any member of a mob which puts someone to death shall be imprisoned for life or for not less than five years, and that state and municipal officials who, through neglect of duty, fail to prevent lynching, shall be imprisoned not more than five years or fined not more than $5,000. Federal courts would have jurisdiction. The following is taken from Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Anti-Lynching law: Any county in which a person is lynched, under the measure, would be required to forfeit $10,000, which would go to the family of the victim. The bill defines a mob "or riotous assemblage" as "an assembly composed of five or more persons acting in concert for the purpose of depriving any person of his life without authority of law." A SURVEY ON WARD 11 Rev. Irving K. Merchant, director of the survey of churches and religious life, issued by the Comity Committee of the federated churches, June, 1921, among other things said: "The largest number of colored people live in the section bounded by East 9th and 79th streets, Kinsman road and Cedar avenue, especially in Wards 11 and 12. Here is found the crux of the race problem. This community has many dance halls, pool rooms and motion picture houses of a very low type and is rapidly becoming a vice district. The houses in many instances are dilapidated, especially on Central avenue, and there is evidence of an overcrowded condition. The schools, branch libraries, playgrounds are open to all, but there is some doubt if the colored people are fully availing themselves of the opportunities offered through them. It is in this section that the colored people are likely to congregate as they come to Cleveland. The attention of the church should therefore be focused here. In the 11th Ward, the colored population outnumber the whites two to one. They are densely settled among peoples of all nationalities. Here are located most of the colored churches." Ku Kluxers Initiate 41. LIMA, O...The same secretry that attended the initial announcement that a branch of the Ku Klux Klan was to be organized here, obtained when, by the dim light of flaming torches, forty-one new members were admitted. Sunday night, under the guidance of a kleagle, who declined to give his name or the names of others. The meeting was held in the one country. Guards kent curious persons away from the scene. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS That Is The Slogan And Only Issue In The Eleventh Ward Contest Tremendous Meetings and Ovations at Zion Hill, Lane Metropolitan and Other Churches—Hall Meetings Great, Too! Judge Florence E. Allen, and Hon. Harry C. Smith, people's candidate for the council in ward 11, were the principal speakers to a large and enthusiastic audience at a mass meeting held in Lane Metropolitan C. M. e. church, Sunday afternoon. Judge Allen talked on the chance needed in our court procedure. Mr. Smith spoke in his usual forceful manner and in scathing terms of the methods being used by the "Starlight" Fleming regime and their fruitless efforts to gloss over the miserable living conditions and low moral status in ward 11. "There is only one issue in this fight," Mr. Smith said, "and regardless of how many LIES the other side publishes and distributes in pamphlet form, or circulates in any way, to offset the aim of the people of ward 11, "STAR AND TOM MUST GO!" A standing vote was to test the sentiment of the audience, and with the exception of less than 30 people (some of whom are known to live outside of ward 11)—in that audience of at least 1200 persons it stood practically unanimous in its desire and resolve to better living conditions and the moral status in ward 11 by defeating Councilman Fleming and Mayor FitzGerald. This and this only will detrive "Starlight" and "Tom" and secure to the people of that ward the emancipation from their political domination they so earnestly desire and are so determined to have. Great applause greeted Mr. Hinchliffe's entrance and followed his excellent speech. He is undoubtedly the most popular candidate for mayor among our people of the ward and the city. Speeches were also made by Miss Hazel Mountain, Judge Silbert, Atty Sweeney and others. Mr. Smith spoke to a large audience at St. Paul Baptist church, Rev. E. J. Pillow, pastor, later in the afternoon. Mrs. Peter Ross presided. As usual, great applause greeted Mr. Smith, and throughout his speech the audience gave vent to rousing bursts of approval. (Mrs.) Thcolia Philen.. At a meeting, held under the auspices of Boydston Post, World War Veterans. Monday evening, at the Central Ave. Bath-house, Hon. Harry C. Smith, the people's candidate in ward 11 for the City Council, gave a very interesting talk, enlightening those present of his activity when a member of the Ohio Legislation in securing legislation for veterans of previous wars. He told to the great surprise of all present, how he had materially assisted to secure for local veterans of the war of the rebellion, legislation for a bond issue that enabled them to finish the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument in Public Square in time to dedicate it on the following decoration day; and of his fight for a state bonus bill, which he introduced at the request of veterans of the Spanish-American War. After asking the members of Boydston Post if their bill for a bonus, etc., suited them, to which question they responded it did. Mr. Smith assured them that if it suited them, it surely suited him, and that settled it as far as he used; and that they could depend on him for the measure. He was most enthusiastically received by the ex-servicemen and their friends, and was greeted with even greater applause on conclusion of his speech. This was Mr. Smith's second speech. Monday being the first being made at the Central Body headquarters, 2366 E. 55th St., to about one hundred men and women workers in his campaign. From Boydson Post meeting, Mr. Smith went to Zion Hill Baptist church, E. 37th St. Over 2200 people crowded into the church to hear Dr. Eason, American Organizer of the U. N. I. A., and Hon. Harry C. Smith. During Dr. Eason's speech he highly complimented Mr. Smith in every way, and shortly after, it was very evident that Dr. Eason had made no mistake for when Mr. Smith entered the church and walked down the aisle to the platform, he was immediately recognized by the multitude and given a great, spontaneous demonstration (applause and cheers) A REWARD OF $1,000 A reward of $1,000 will be offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any person or persons found guilty of voting illegally, or election booth officials wrongfully marking, altering or miscounting ballots during or after voting hours.

An And Only Issue In n Ward Contest Ovations at Zion Hill, Lane Other Churches—Hall s Great, Too! which lasted until he had reached the platform and acknowledged the salute with a polite salute to the great audience. After Dr. Eason had gone on record by endorsing Mr. Smith's candidacy, during his exceptionally fine address, frequently referring to him as the next councilman of the 11th ward, he introduced the people's candidate and favorite, and then ensured another soul-stirring demonstration of applause, cheers and cries of "Smith, Smith, Smith, our next councilman!" Mr. Smith held the large audience spellbound and as he drove home point after point the applause demonstration was again and again repeated, culminating in a climax that was a veritable explosion when Mr. Smith said: "STARLIGHT" AND "TOM" MUST GO! the former into exile (from ward 11) after Jan. 1st, 1922. He was well understood also by "Star," who was standing in the rear of the church, because that individual immediately started out the church door. And by the way, this meeting was being held in the same church where, just 24 hours previously, "Star," "Tom" and Mayor FitzGerald were said to have been, the last two named speaking. The local U. N. I. A. have endorsed Mr. Smith's candidacy and are enthusiastically supporting him. Good! To Offer: $1,000 Reward! To Offer $1,000 Reward! A reward of $1,000 will be offered for the arrest and conviction of any petrous fond guilty of voting illegally, an election booth officials, wirefull marking ballots during voting hours, or while counting ballots after the booths have closed, according to a declaration made by the Hon. Humphrey C. Smith, the councilman-in-chief in the clerkship ward, in many places at Lane Metropolitan, Zion Hill St. Paul and Shiloh Bantlet churches and a number of hall meetings this week. "In the 11th Ward," Mr. Smith said, "it had been common talk for the past week that the defeat of James R. Hinchliffe for mayor and musket for councillman would be (Continued on page 4. 5th column) The GAZETTE PRIME SPORT NEWS PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY One Year ..... $2.00 Six Months ..... 1.00 Three Months ..... 50 Subscribers are requested to remit by postoffice money order or registered letter Entered at the postoffice in Cleveland, Ohio, as second-class mail matter.

OCTOBER 29, 1921. The indications are that there will be very little delay after the ratification of the German treaty before our troops on the Rhine are brought home. All The Gazette can say at this time, and until we can get a copy of President Harding's speech on "Race Prepidence," delivered in Birmingham, Ala., Wednesday, is that it is remarkable, to say the least. In one of their numerous circulars, "Star" and "Tom" accused the editor of The Gazette of being supported by the Democratic candidate for mayor, Mr. Haserodt, and said that he (Mr. Smith) was "flirting" with the Democrats. Tuesday evening, at the Democratic meeting at Memorial school. E. 152nd St., Maschke and "Star" applauded Mr. Haserodt vigorously while he was speaking, shook hands with and congratulated him after the Democratic candidate for mayor had concluded his speech. Who is quilty? ANSWER ENOUGH A number of Democratic editors are addressing to their Republican Congressmen a series of questions, one of which asks the representative why he voted to repeal the excess profits tax. A sufficient answer is that the platforms of both political parties and the candidates of both political parties pledged it in the last campaign. That is answer enough. The country does not expect the conference on limitation of armaments to accomplish everything that might be desired in an ideal world, nor very much that might be desired, but it does expect that a start will be made. The country is also confident that if there is failure of accomplishment, that outcome will not be due to the readiness of the spokesmen for the United States to meet any and all other nations half way in an effort to reduce the cost of military establishments. COST OF R. R. REGULATION. "The cost of regulation" is the title of an editorial in the Boston News Bureau, discussing the cost of regulating the railroads. But the cash cost is only part of the cost. One trouble with any sort of government regulation is that the regulating must be done chiefly by men who never ran a railroad themselves. They are the kind of theorists of whom Mr. Harding spoke when, in a pre-convention address, he deprecated the interference of men who had never had to meet payrolls. There are a lot of people who could tell how to run a newspaper but who never met the payrolls every Saturday night. REDFIELD REDIVIVUS. William C. Redfield, Secretary of Commerce in the Wilson administration, is the latest "expert" on Russian troubles to offer advice to President Harding. He thinks a special commission ought to be appointed to look after Russian relief, and believes that the relief forces now carrying aid into the country are totally inadequate to handle the famine situation. Maybe Mr. Redfield is right, but his assumption that it is up to the United States to feed the teeming millions of Russia ought to be somewhat revised. The United States is sending many thousands of tons of foodstuffs to the hungry Russians, and is doing about all that could reasonably be expected of it. ```markdown ``` By Allen Harrison Dorsey. The scheduled season of our National Baseball League came to a close on Oct. 2. Owing to varied circumstances, among which was the unexpected fall of attendance in week-day and Sunday games, the full schedule was not played. The Chicago American Giants copped the leading honors of the season with a percentage of .662 in sixty-five games. St. Louis finished second with .583 in seventy-two tilts, just one point above Kansas City with ninety-one games. Detroit was fourth, .500 in sixty-six games, Indianapolis, fifth, .487; Columbus, sixth, .444; Cin. (Cuban Stars) and Green's Chicago Giants bringing up the rear.

Ov black peop of almost Tates Win From Lorain The Tate Stars from the club defeated the Lorain Holley-Krohn, Sunday, at Tate Field, 13 to 7, before a large crowd. Both of the Tate touchdowns came in the first period. The first was made by McCreary, who caught a pass from Hill and ran twenty yards for the score. A brilliant sixty-yard run by Morrison landed the second one, made after intercepting a forward pass. Lorain made its touchdown in the third period after a series of line bucks. Brunner finally going over. The rest of the game passed without anything exciting, the ball staying close to the middle of the field. Morrison, Leonard, Hill and Gaskins scored for Tates, while Brunner, Bermes and Matusak were the Lorain luminaries. In a preliminary game the Star A.C. defeated the Beachland A. C., 19 to 10. INDIANAPOLIS, IN. — The All-Stars, composed of league players, got the jumps on the A. B. C's in the final game at Washington park, Sunday, and won out, 6 to 4, thus winning two out of three games. They pounded Jeffries hard and in the third he was vanked and Drake took the mound. The Taylor men made a rally in the eighth, getting runs off Bartlett, and Jess Petty was sent in to save the day for the leaguers.

Notwithstanding the fact that black baseball players are not allowed to play in the National and American leagues, the fact that all other nationalities on the face of the globe are admitted, still the champion fanatics of America are black people. In the recent world series, it is reported that in the wee hours of the night a member of our race was seen to prop himself at the Polo Grounds in New York, there to wait for twenty hours for the gates to open for the great game. Over twenty-five thousand black people paid an admission price of almost $2 to witness a fasco in which they are denied a part. This gave the black woman race pride the black people have in mind, how much self-respect they have developed. It is bad enough to ride on "jim cars," but to get into estates over a "jim corm" sport is un forgivable. What will Judge Landis say about it?—Chicago Whip. Tate Stars to Meet Farrells Tate Stars to Meet Farrell. The Farrell Wildcats, one of the strongest colored grid teams in western Pennsylvania, will be the next opponent of the Tate Stars. They come here Sunday to play the local semi-pro team at Tate field. The team will play the Favorite Knits a return game. Jack Thompson, "live-wire" coach and manager of the local gridders is trying hard to give our city a worthy eleven. Tate field should be crowded with local sport-lovers the next five or six Sundays. Bah! For These Women! The inquiring reporter of the Chicago Tribune picked five persons at random asking them the question, "Should Champion Dempsey fight Harry Wills or draw the color line?" All were salespeople, three men opposing the match and two women favoring it. Seems as if the feminine sex are more fair-minded than the men. BERKELEY PEARCE Vote For Frank G.

Sao Oe | ‘The wonderful support (of the voters of ward 11) of the candidacy of Harry C, Smith for the City Coun- il, a candidacy for which represen- tatives of twenty-four churches and other organizations in the ward are responsible, has appayently driven the “Svarlight” — Boyd-Couneilman Fleming “fraction” to desperation. ‘They have begun, just as expected by many, to circulate pamphlets mak- ing contemptible personal attacks on Mr. Smith which are positively silly. Boware of these and others that may follow during the closing hours of the campaign. ‘They will not be al- lowed to becloud the atmosphere, coming as they do from such a source, because “STAR” AND “TOM” SHOULD AND MUST GO! A long suffering and too patient peo- ple, those in ward 11, have decreed it ‘and are also determined that Mayor FitzGerald and Chairman Maschke, ‘Star and “Tom's” polit- cal bosses, shall go, too, Nov. 8, 1921. VT IS THE ONLY WAY THE PEOPLE OF THE WARD CAN EMANCIPATE: THEMSELVES FROM A POLITICAL DOMINATION that has made the Central Ave. dis- trict so notorious, so dangerous to live in and so bad in many ways that its residents have risen in their might with an unalterable determin- ation to vote “Star” and “Tom' out of the political power they havo ex- erelsed and abused shamefully tor five years. An outraged people in ward 11, and they include about all elements, say “STAR” AND “TOM™ MUST GO AND GO THEY SHALL! ‘The low moral status of and conse- quent miserable living conditions in the ward, and district, must be ma- terlally improved and’ they will be with the outgoing of these four indi- viduals—"'Star," “Tom,” FitzGerald and Masehke! ' It is the ONLY way the people ean get what they are de- fermingd to have, Again we warn the vottrs of ward 11 to pay no at- tention to the contemptible attacks being made in their pamphlets and speeches, but to keep ever before you the real issue—EMANCIPATION! TO get this, “STAR” AND “TOM,” FITZGERALD — AND MASCHKE MUST GO!!! Also please remember that it was the contemptible pamph- let-attacks on Senator Warren G. Harding, last fall, that made him President and gave him the largest plurality any candidate for President ever received. Harry ©. Smith. ‘The Ward 11 Contest. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—When a farmer begins to clear up a piece of ground, the first thing he does 1s to clear away the underbrush and small timber. By this method he gots a clear swing with his ax at the tall timber. The 11th ward voters are doing tliis very thing. Ward- heelers, committee-men and coun- ciimen must heed the request ot their constitituents. Resolution after resolution has been passed asking for positions for our qualified young members of the race, to the higher- up, but to no avail. ‘The 11th ward voters are leading the way, clearing the decks for action, and ‘they are making no mistake in choosing our Raltor H.C.

It is said that there are those who boast of fraud at the ballot box and in the count, and speak of our ignorance in marking the ballot. They also say “the jobs belong to the old. citi zens,” the “land-marks,” but we came here to better our conditions, to live and rear our children and we feel it our duty as a people to stand for the things we feel and know are right in the sight of God. ‘The «people have spoken and their motto fs, “conquer we must when our cause is just.”” Let this also be our motto, “In God we trust,” and on Noy, § “old glory” will wave from nearly every housetop in Ward 11 ir honor of the victory of the people's choice, HON.

My dear friend Smith:—The pres- ent effort of the good people of Cleveland to elect you as councilman of the Eleventh Ward bespeaks a volume in favor of the splendid rec- ord you have made as one of the foremost citizens of the great state of Ohio, and brings home that great truth spoken by | Horace.

Warren, Esq. paign and I congratulate you most heartily on the showing thus far made and prodict your triumphant election over my other good friend, ‘Thomas W. Fleming. I do not think, however, that the personality of the candidate so much enters into the campaign as the respective principles represented by yourself and Mr. Fleming from a standpoint of polit- fcal policy. ‘The prinefples you rep- resent are like those represented by the late Hazen S. Pingree of this city when he first ran for mayor of Detroit. Our town had been conduct- ed much the same as your town has been conducted for five years or more, as what is known as a “wide- open” town. The good people of Detroit. Our town ha dbeen conduct- ed him mayor, and, of course, you know he became a national charac- ter. People will stand evil conditions just so long and no longer; then they will rise in their might and abolisi the political system that permits it. And, as I believe in the same prin- ciples of a clean town both physical- ly and morally, here's to your suc- coss. ‘Yours sincerely, (Atty.} Francis H, Warren. ‘One of Many!

Greeting: —After" several weeks’ effort we have finally been success- ful in DRAFTING a candidate for the City Council in this ward—the Hon, Harry C. Smith, three times < member of the Ohio Legislature from this (Cuyahoga) county. Mr. Smith is the father of Ohio's Anti- Lynehing Law and of Ohio’s Civil Rights Law. He helped to enact all the legislation secured in 1894, 1896 and 1900 that has proved so bene- ficial to the city; its police, fire, park, school, library and all other Gepartments. While born in the South, he is a product of the schools of Cleveland, a resident of Ward 11, and the city for more than half a century. He is a tax-payer and has been a successful business man and editor here for thirty-nine years. His splendid record as an editor, business man, upright, loyal and ag- gressive citizen is generally well known and recognized. For five years the living conditions have grown steadily worse in Ward 11, and the city, as everyone knows, as'a result of the “open town’ rule of the eltz inaugurated by Mayor Harry L. Davis and Chairman Maur. fee Maschke and continued by the latter and Mayor Wm. FitzGerald It was this power (these gentle- men) from whom “Starlight” Boyd and Councilman. Thos. W. Fleming derived, their power as political leaders of Ward 11. To their loose political control and domination can be attributed the tremendous increase in the mis: erable conditions in the ward in the last four or five years, Murder, cut ting, shooting, banditry and other crimes und misdemeanors and vile conditions, too numerous to mention. but with which residents of the ward are so familiar, to their sorrow and regret, have forced us to make a SUPREME effort to throw off the miserable yoke (political leadership) of “Starlight” Boyd and Councilman Fleming, which Mayors Davis and FitzGerald and Chairman Maschke have saddled on us for quite five years. Only the defeat of the two candidates, FitzGerald and Fleming, ean afford us the relief desired, be- cause the former controls the police and they must be used to accomplish ‘the'end desired. With Mr. Smith's ‘help as Counciiman—and he has pledged his best efforts to this end —we propose to materially improve the moral status and better the liv- ing conditions in Ward 11 and make it again a safe and decent place in which to live. Cleveland has among the best police in the country, and they will again prove it if given “free rein” to act and are not “hobbled” as they are afd have been by such orders as No. 73, under Mayors Day- is and FitzGerald. _ In view of the foregoing, and ‘much more, we respectfully ask ALL voters of Ward 11 to join with us and help yote out the “Starlight” Boyd-Councilman Thos. W. Fleming political control and domination of Ward 11, and Mayor FitzGerald’s control of the city. (Signed) THE CENTRAL BODY of Ward 11 Citizens’ Organiza- tion, Eugene R. Brown, Pres.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many reader of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon, Harry C. Smith’s Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 7ist General Assembly, in 1894: ‘The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper ot manager of an inn, restaurant, eat- ing house, barber-shop, public con- veyance by land or water, theater ot other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the ac- commodations, advantages. facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined pat less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12041. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov- ered in any court of competent, jur- isdiction in the county where such of- fense was committed. ‘This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by. the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. To offer $1,000 Reward (Continued from Page 1) accomplished if necessary by resort- ing to illegal methods in the booths. “In the inner cirele of polities it is well known, and has been for four ‘or five. years, that there are those in ‘the booths of certain precincts in |wards 11, 12 and 8 and elsewhere who have been committing illegal acts for which the law provides a penitentiary sentence if they are convicted. “The gossip of the past week that Hinchliffe and myself will be defeated at any price, clearly indicates that we both have the popular favor of the large majority of the Republican voters in ward 11 and the knowledge that popular favor has swung toward us has prompted some supporters of the FitzGerald-Fleming faction to in- ule in ‘such tall as is going the rounds in the ward,” the couneilman- ie candidate added. At all these meetings large crowds assembled and cheered Smith as he pledged himself to rid the people of his ward of the “political domination of ‘Starlight’ Boyd and his lieuten- ant, Thomas Fleming, who were made Republican leaders in the ward for Mayor FitzGerald.” Reference to the fact that “Star- light” was taken from Clayton hall last Tuesday evening by a policeman for disturbing a political meeting brought forth a roar of applause from ail tha “aadinibee: "Teves Lired Feet - : 2 fr tale li" Massage gently with soothing wi ees f ome “Meritholatum he OX ie ns neue | PY Sicily Greer Praises py *S4 EXELENTO QUININE —- fee POMADE | il Says her hair, was short coarse | GREG x(k, §=— and napp: re using this ae. eg oie are ee | YOU can have soft, silky hair that con be easily dressed.
