GARV Seek Pro FULTON TEARS IN OPPONENTS: SAYS HE'LL EMPLOY US Record Crowd Hears Candidate Present Qualifications In Meeting Here Nearing the completion of the campaign, William J. Fulton candidate for county commissioner, ripped into his opponents in a stirring address, Tuesday night, at Rosemont hall, Nineteenth and Broadway, before what was perhaps the largest audience to attend a political meeting during the present campaign. Fulton arrived at the hall amid cheers and the Roosevelt annex band struck up a lively tune, while Fulton gallantly strode up to the platform. Fulton Attacks Opponent Fulton opened this attack saying: "There is no need for me to be modest about myself, when the other fellow is immodest about himself, I have been fair to my opponent, while he has been unfair to me, and I have slung no mud during the entire campaign." Fulton vigorously expounded to the audience that he would employ as many colored people as possible, and that he was not a hand-shaking candidate, but one that will act when needed. Clara Webster, who is rapidly gaining fame as an orator also spoke. Judge C. V. Ridgely, candidate for judge of the superior court, made a short address in the interest of his candidacy. Joseph Riley, leader for Fulton, made a stirring speech for Fulton also. At intervals between speeches by different speakers a splendid program was rendered. Gay Ramon Navarro In "Devil May Care" Ramon Navarro, recently elected successor to Rudolph Valentino, comes to the Tower theatre in "Devil May Care" April 25. Navarro, who scored such a tremendous success in "The Pagan" has greater triumph in "Devil May Care" in which his beautiful voice is again in evidence. "Devil May Care" is a thrilling romance crammed full of intense moments. The settings are beautifully laid, the songs woven in romantically, and the acting superb. Navarro is at his height in this vehicle. A strong cast supports the handsome actor, including Dorothy Jordan, John Miljan and Marion Harris. With the unusually beautiful music, striking photography which includes a lovely sequence done in technicolor and the adroit direction of Sidney Franklin, make "Devil May Care" a picture far above the average. Richard Arlen A Cowboy Again "The Light of Western Stars," the first Zane Grey novel to be dramatized on the talking screen by Paramount, will come to the Chicago theatre for one week beginning April 25th. The two romantic favorites, Richard Arlen and Mary Brian, head an outstanding cast, including Harry Green, Regis Toomey and Fred Kohler. This breezy, fast moving story brings the open spaces; a love story intensified by the eternal triangle and the humor of "The Kibitzer," Harry Green. His habit of telling fables and getting them mixed up, is some of the best humor seen on the talking screen in a long while. Fred Kohler, the bad man of "Roadhouse Nights," does another good job as a villain of the wide open spaces. The L. T. L. will meet Sunday afternoon from 3 to 4 o'clock in the home of Mrs. Rebecca E. Rayford at 2592 Massachusetts. Ahlgren for Prosecutor.

Y., who were threatened with violence because, in seeking new homes, they moved into districts inhabited by white people. The two colored men, Dr. Errold Gollymore, dentist, and Dr. A. M. Williams, are standing their ground and say they will not be driven out, though both have received threatening letters and on the morning of April 16, a fiery cross was burned on the lawn of Dr. Collymore. Herbert J. Seligmann, N.A.A.C.P. Director of Publicity, went to White Plains on the night of April 16, accompanied by William T. Andrews, the Association's Special Legal Assistant, and there addressed a gathering of prominent persons, including three leading clergymen, the treasurer of the community chest and others. It was pointed out by the N.A.A.C.P. representatives that the Association would back to the limit the right of the two colored men to live privately in their homes and that if necessary, an appeal would be made to Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt for State Troopers to maintain order in White Plains. A statement drafted by Mr. Seligmann, calling upon the local white editors and the public to maintain order in White Plains was then signed by the white people in the gathering for presentation to the editors of the two White Plains dailies. A statement released by the white press by the N.A.A.C.P. denouncing the fomenting of race friction by real estate operators and scare-head stories in the local newspapers, has had a sobering effect on the community. Opera Star In "The Rogue Song" Lawrence Tibbett, famous star of the Metropolitan opera, makes his initial debut in talking pictures in "The Rogue Song," singing romance coming to the McVickers theatre on Saturday, April 26. Tibbett has been very much in the public eve since last year when he gave a series of broadcasts over the radio. He is one of the finest baritones in the country today, his voice being flawless in its sweet purity. In making the picture all of the fine qualities of that voice have been preserved, and in addition, Tibbett has shown a genuine aptitude for acting. He is the perfect combination of voice and ability for work in the talking pictures. Ahlgren for Prosecutor. No. 13.

Fire Cop Who Beat Up Colored Taxi Driver In Argument BLUE ISLAND, ILL.—An investigation by the police committee of the City Council of the conduct of Officer H. J. Stewart over an altercation he had with a colored cab driver Saturday night resulted in his suspension for a thirty day term by city council of Blue Island. His failure to appear at the investigation Monday night played an important part in his suspension, it was learned. The cab driver, A. Webster, had been twice ordered not to park on the wrong side of the street by Stewart. On Saturday evening Webster pulled his cab up in front of 13325 Western ave., where Stewart was and told him that "the lieutenant wanted to see him." Stewart remarked that he would not take orders from him and one word led to another. In the end Stewart is reported to have swung at the colored man a number of times. He failed to report the case to police headquarters, however. This, combination with his failure to appear at the investigation, influenced the committee in their suspension order, it is said. Officer Stewart's friends are numerous in Blue Island, however, and there are many reports of his efficiency and courtesy while on the force. The Y. P.

TYPE OF POLITICIAN President of National Body Raps Mayor Johnson; Backs Kyle, Others BULLETIN Continued resentment and dissatisfaction over Mayor R. O. Johnson's failure to give adequate recognition to colored voters was expressed in Gary this week in several distinct ways. First, the mayor was severely rebuked by Charles L. James, president of the Universal Negro Improvement association, who characterized the city's chief executive as an eloquent ingrate. Second, suit against the mayor and the city administration was being planned and talked about as a result of the arrest of Mrs. Letia Cochran, an expectant mother, last week, and the abuse administered her by the mayor's police, who caused her to have a miscarriage of her unborn child. Third, steps were being taken by members of the Gary Noonday Business club to prevent Dr. Charles R. Wood from further evading giving an account of himself and explaining why he had the nerve to invite. Mayor Johnson to be a guest of the club, in total disregard to the best wishes of the club. Fourth, Booker Thomas, business manager of The Gary American, today announced that since opening its fight against Mayor Johnson, The Gary American has increased its city circulation by more than 3400 copies. Fifth, criticism was also being made over the fact that Hazel Fletcher and other members of the mayor's police department were leaving their beats and forgetting their jobs and spending whole hours of the day at the campaign headquarters of those candidates being backed by the nefarious Johnson—Bradford political machine, playing politics at the expense of the tax payers, in subservient obedience to Johnson's command and his effort to get a strangle hold on Lake county politics after "double crossing" August Bremer and other candidates, according to Bremer's own statements. Sixth, State Senator William F. Hodges, in seeking to explain the mayor's action in throwing a petition of colored voters in the waste basket, characterized the mayor as "an imbecile" or a fully grown up person whose mind remains that of a child of 12 years of age. The story about Johnson being rebuked by the Universal Negro Improvement association is printed below: BY EARL J. MORRIS Charles L. James, leader of the Gary division of the U.N.I.A. threw a bombshell in to the political pot that has been boiling on the south side, when he candidly told citizens who the movement endorsed, at a meeting held Thursday night at Liberty Hall. SLAPS AT MAYOR JOHNSON James vigorously attacked the mayor for his recent actions in ignoring the petitions of colored people, and said that the U.N.I.A. will not forget the dear brother, the Mayor. He argued that all colored voters support men who will give a favor after election. James stated: "Quit voting for the Johnson type, silver tongue ingrates, that think so little of our votes after election that he threw our petitions in the waste basket with the scrap paper." WILL CONDUCT SCHOOL "What we want from the candidates is jobs and plenty of them," continued the youthful leader. The Negro is now facing an economic crisis, the bread and butter problem. "Elect men who will have intelligence to know our needs and that we are tired of the wishy-washy political bunk. So many of our people lose the one weapon that we have of fighting for our rights in not knowing how to mark ballots, so the U.N.I.A., beginning Monday will open a school, and teach the voters how not to lose their right of franchise," James stated. James in his masterly style of delivering an address urged all citizens (Continued on page 8) (Continued on page 8) No. 56 No. 56 DR. A. A. WATTS YOUR PRESENT COUNTY CORONER Has Served You Fairly and Justly and Deserves Your SUPPORT FOR RE-NOMINATION 56 DR. A. A. WATTS X Page Two JAMES H. MCNEFF SEEKS NOMINATION FOR LEGISLATURE Points To Work and Records As Deputy Prosecutor and As A Citizen James H. McNeff, well known Gary lawyer and former chief deputy prosecutor of Lake county, today announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination as representative for Lake county. Mr. McNeff, who has been a resident of Gary for the past twelve years, has demonstrated his ability in some of the most important trials in the county. After Lake county had failed for two years to extradite Frank McCarlane, Chicago gangster, to Indiana for the murder of Thad Fancher, Crown Point attorney, Mr. McNeff was appointed special prosecutor and after six months of effort succeeded in the extradition proceedings in Chicago, bringing McErlane to Indiana, for the murder of Thad Fancher, to stand trial. Mr. McNeff gave ten years of his early life to labor, beginning as a section hand on the Baltimore and Ohio railroads in 1907. He advanced through the various departments of railroading, and has had experience as telegrapher, signal man, agent and train dispatcher. The period of his railroad experience saw the enactment of the nine-hour day for the telegraph department, and the Adamson law making a basic eight hour day for trainmen. This early experience has given him an understanding and sympathy with the problems of those who labor. Law Practitioner He was engaged in the practice of law in Marshal county, where he was born, two years before coming to Gary and has been engaged in law practice here for twelve years. He is married, owns his home and lives with his wife and two children at 4347 M. Adams street. He is a member of various political, legal and fraternal organizations and has long been familiar with and has always taken a keen interest in Lake county problems. His first vote was Republican although in a county that had been Democratic for over twenty years, and he has been consistently Republican ever since. Mr. McNeil's friends believe his knowledge of government and his well known independence will make him a valuable asset as a member of the legislature. Throughout Mr. McNeff's residence in Lake county, he has been a staunch friend of hundreds of colored citizens, who have always found him open-minded, courteous and square, and he expects to receive a substantial vote from colored voters.

WILL BELSHAW SEEKS NOMINATION TO JUDICIAL POST Hammond Lawyer Seeks Post As Judge of Room No. Five In Hammond Believing that the office requires a man of ability, experience and judicial temperament, J. Will Belshaw, prominent Hammond attorney, today announced his candidacy for judge of Lake Superior court, room No. 5, Hammond. Born in Indiana and educated in the schools of the state, Mr. Belshaw received his legal training at Valpariso university, from which he graduated in 1893. For a while afterward, he taught school in the public schools of Lake county, and in 1895 he was admitted to practice law in Lake county. Mr. Belshaw is a staunch Republican, having served as a worker in the ranks of the Republican party as vice chairman of the County Central committee for two terms. For 14 years, he was deputy prosecutor under Republican administrations, but has never been a candidate for any other public office until now. The office to which Mr. Belshaw seeks elevation is one which, in view of his training and experience, his friends feel him admirably qualified for. Room 5 of the Lake Superior court was created by a special act of the1927 legislature and the occupant was named by the governor to fill it until 1930. The coming primary election on May 6, will offer Lake county voters their first chance to select a judge for this court room. All voters in the county will have an opportunity to vote for this office. Mr. Belshaw is considered one of the most capable, fearless, fair and honest lawyers in Lake county, and if nominated, he will administer the office fairly and impartially regardless of race, class or religion, and on that platform solicits the vote of the colored people of Lake county.

This is sad but true. Recklessness seems to be part of the motoring code with millions of American drivers. And the inevitable result is that every year, 25 or 30 thousand persons are killed and hundreds of thousands injured in preventable automobile accidents. The tragic part of it is that the enormous annual waste of life and property is almost entirely unnecessary. The unpreventable accident is rare as the dodo bird. Someone is incompetent or reckless in the case of practically every collision, great or small, between motor cars. The blame may be laid in two places. First is the apparent indifference of many motorists to the fundamentals of safety. Second is the lack of strict licensing laws in most states to keep the incompetent and reckless off the road, and an accompanying lack of enforcement of modernized, common sense traffic codes The Power Of Faith Faith is one of the greatest that is back of every great movement one possesses this characteristic he of.

Faith is one of the greatest things in all the world. It is faith that is back of every great movement, and the Good Book says that if one possesses this characteristic he can even move mountains. Faith won the great World war by the most tremendous sacrifice of blood and treasure that humanity has ever known. Faith carried our soldiers into the most perilous positions and made them willing to die, when necessary, that a truly great cause could ultimately be drummount. It was faith that enabled Moses to lead the chosen people out of the wilderness to the very verge of the Promised Land. Faith led Joshua to lead the Israelites after Moses had gone to his reward. Faith led Caesar to cross the Rubicon; it led the early Christians to sacrifice their lives in hostile climes, and it enabled the reformers of later days to presevere in the face of the most difficult obstacles. Faith made it possible for George Washington to carry on and to eventually see the thirteen colonies transformed into thirteen states, free from foreign oppression. Faith was an outstanding characteristic of Abraham Lincoln, as it has ever been a dominating factor in the lives of men and women who succeed. Faith will take one far in his journey along the pathway of life, and without faith no one can truly succeed. How can one go forward if he is destitute of faith? How can he help his fellow-men if he does not know the meaning of this great word? Faith is necessary if one is to believe in himself or God. It is necessary if one is to believe in the mortality of the soul. It is necessary if one is to be of service to those with whom he comes in contact. A community makes progress because there are those who have faith. A city, state or nation progresses for exactly the same reason. The individual, himself, makes progress because he has faith, and because he allows no defeat to keep him down. Faith is needed today in every walk of life. The business man needs faith, and the professional man is in equal need of this great asset. The man who earns his living with his hands is also in need of faith. The church as an organization must possess faith if anything worth while is to be accomplished. In fact, we all need faith, and it is something which each and every one can possess. Reading the stories of all those who ever accomplished anything of consequence in the world makes one realize that the possession of faith was the secret of their success. We should, therefore, profit by the example of such persons and endeavor to cultivate the virtues of men and women who have really and truly possessed an abiding faith in their attitude toward people and events.

COMMISSIONER Well, Known Republican Former Official Announces His Aims, Intentions Entering the race on the strength of his past record, William Hut Olds, beloved friend and servant of the people and one of the most colorful former police officers in the state, today announced his candidacy for County Commissioner, first district, subject to the republican primary election on May 6. Born in the State Born in Clay county, Indiana, Mr. Olds is a hoosier not only by right of birth, but in that he has spent all the years of his vigorous and active life in Lake county first as an iron and steel worker in the mills of the Calumet region and afterwards as a public servant holding public office, and in this length of time, he has won thousands of friends whom he has endeared himself to by his sincerity and deep interest in the welfare of all. "Hut" Olds, as he is affectionately called by the people of the county, is an ardent Methodist, and in this denomination has worked for years as member of the Methodist church. He first entered the public office in 1909 when eh was elected alderman of the first ward in East Chicago. He served two terms as a member of the East Chicago city council from 1909 to 1916. In 1917, Mr. Olds became a deputy sheriff under Lew Barnes. He served in this capacity for four years, during which time he proved to be one of the strongest and reliable aids on the sheriff's staff. He was elected to the office of sheriff in 1920, and served from 1920 to 1924 as sheriff of Lake county. In this period, Mr. Olds proved to be the servant and friend of all the people of the county, for it was at this time that the county passed through one of the most trying periods of its police history. More than once was he called upon to display extraordinary courage and fairness in upholding the law. At the end of his term in office, he went into the real estate business, having won the distinction of being one of the best sheriffs Lake county ever had. He is an honorary member of the AmaIgamated Iron and Steel Workers, joining the organization as a C. P. B. E. boy. He is also a member of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and is an ardent worker in the Republican party of the state and county. In seeking the office of County commissioner, first district, in the spring primaries, Mr. Olds expressed supreme confidence in the voters of Lake county who, knowing his record and his fairness to all, are expected to nominate him on the republican ticket for County Commissioner, first district, on May 6. The Y.P.B. club was beautifully entertained Thursday evening by Miss Ruth Skillman in her lovely home at 1962 Massachusetts. THE GARY AMERICAN OLDS 9 As An Ex Effici As An Experienced and Efficient Public Official William H.

POST Crown Point Man Bases Race On His Experience in the Office He Now Seeks With a record of four years of honest, conscientious service to the people of Lake county, declare the friends who are giving their hearty indorsement to his ability, and the support of a host of personal friends, William H. Linton, present member of the board of county commissioners from the 2nd district, has announced that he is a candidate for renomination a the primary election on May 6 1930. P. L. Mr. Linton hailived in Lake county 28 years and in Indiana all of his life. The best yearsof his life have been spent in business in Crown Point. During that time in all of his many business dealings with the public, both as a private citizen and as a public official, his friends declare, no one can ever say that he has taken a dollar for which he did not give an honest service in return To the taxpayers of the county, they assert, he has been an efficient servant, absolutely impartial, fair-minded, serving all sections of the county, alike, and equally well, as commissioner for the 2nd district. The citizens of the 1st and 3rd districts always have found him as approachable, as ready to give them an attentive hearing and as ready to grant any reasonable request as though he were a resident of their own division, his friends say. There are few men who have a greater knowledge of the manifold interests of the county than Mr. Linton. In the establishment of highways, supervision of their construction, repairs to thoroughfare, building of bridges, supervision of ditches and drains, the planning and construction of needed public improvements for the fastest growing county in the state, daily and almost hourly consultations with various departments of the county business, the obtaining of supplies and materials for the upkeep and maintenance of the various county institutions, a close co-operation with the county council in matters of economy, the many consultations with township officers are but a portion of the work that makes the office of commissioner of Lake county as important as the business management of a great corporation. In fact, Lake county with its rapid progress is equal to handling the business affairs ofa -480,000,000 concern. It is a job that should not be trusted to inefficient, incapable or inexperienced hands, Mr. Linton's friends say.

Does he know the law? Is he broadminded? Is he progressive? Does he know how to encourage investment in the town and how to treat it when here?" People of Gary: Do you know that the man who is your assessor has much to do with encouraging the business interests of your town and it is my sincere belief that I have given you such a service.

He is the only Negro member of the staff, and is one of the few persons of color to hold such a position. He is widely known through his brilliant contributions to such magazines as hte American Mercury and Plain Talk. Last week Mr. Gordon discussed his reasons for selecting Robert Sengstack Abbott and Nannie Helen Burroughs as two of his THIRTEEN MOST INTERESTING NEGROES IN THE UNITED STATES. (Continued from last week) There is in Chicago a Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church who is, at the same time, one of that city's svelt and finished politicians. How he manages to get away with it is what interests not only me, but thousands of others who have observed the Chicago political machine. Bishop Archibald James Carey A. WILLIAM MONROE TROTTER A.M., Ph.D., D.D., has been a member of the Illinois Constitutional Convention, a trustee of Wilberforce University, a member of the Civil Service Commission of Chicago, chairman of the financial board of the A.M.E. Church, chairman of the General Conference Commission of 1928; he is a Mason, a Knight of Pythias, an Odd Fellow, a Forester, a Republican, and, of course, a Methodist bishop. The salary of a bishop is $3500 a year and he is elected for life. Conferences are held annually and each bishop is paid $100 in fees for each conference. Additionally, each church at which he preaches pays him from $25 to $100 for a sermon. Thus, a A. WILLIAM PICKENS voluble bishop may sometimes make as much as $300 a Sunday. His earnings in the church, therefore, approximate $10,000 a year. With the intensive political training that a churchman must experience before he is elected bishop, it is not at all amazing that years later Coming Soon Clean Fiction Human Interest Features ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—April 26, 1930 he sometimes becomes a power in ward politics. When it is considered, for instance, that Bishop Carey presides over a district embracing Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Iowa, and that this district has a church population of many thousands who accept this saintly man's word as law, the tremendous significance of his power may be comprehended. Bishop Carey's job as Civil Service Commissioner was threatened some time ago by A.M.E. legislation, but when the conference met, what did it do? Like a naughty puppy caught in the act, it lay on its back and fanned its stubby tail, while the massive man of God from Chicago smiled tolerantly upon it. In brief, the conference, instead of telling him politely to get to hell either out of the bishopric or out of politics, handed him the most important episcopal district of the A.M.E. Church. It did precisely as he and Mayor Thompson desired it to do; it retained him in Chicago where his benign influence could temper the stench of putrid ward politics. If there is a more interesting personality in Aframerica than this Divinitatis Doctor Politicus, I wish someone would call his name. With his large earnings as a bishop and his salary of $7,500 as civil service commissioner, the good man does not have to worry about a scarcity of spending money. Nor do any of the thousands who contribute to his support, either, I feel sure; for so exalted a churchman, although he may not obey his master's injunction to render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, nevertheless must, I believe, dispense among the poor of Chicago all the money in excess of what he and his family, as good Christians, need. If he does, he is more interesting than I first suspected; if he does not, then he is more interesting still. Chicago offers another interesting man, in Oscar De Priest. Thus far, he bears no string of honorary degrees after his name, but it won't be long now. The reason he has so far escaped is that the institutions which seek prestige by presenting degrees to personages have not yet had time to decide whether the Congressman from the Windy City will be a help to them. They will have to watch his behavior a little longer before deciding definitely what to do. For DePriest has drawn more censure than praise since he has been in Washington. Especially do the colored folks of the South tremble every time the blustery Mid-Westerner opens his mouth. He might say something to bring Southern retaliation upon their bandannaed heads. Thus, "He has done more harm than good," some of the Southern colored leaders declare. "He's alienating all our good white friends," another wails. "Keep him out of Dixie!" But De Priest goes stubbornly on. With his leonine head erect, and his chest lifted in the pride of having achieved "the world's largest lawmaking body," he tells audiences all over the country how he got where he is; what he intends to do if Heflin challenges him in the Senate dining room; why he appoints black boys to West Point and Annapolis; why he thinks the black American needs no political party of his own; what he thinks of the West Indians who do not become naturalized; why the Negro should take the white man's money in exchange for a vote. The Gary American Let those who would polish Mr. DePriest into a well rounded gentleman cease their silly regrets. It cannot be done. It would be unfortunate if it could be done. As he is, he is priceless. He is far more cultured than Heflin of Alabama or Blease of South Carolina, and he is as picturesque as either. And, as a source of all-round interest, give me DePriest any day in the week. III The "Father of Jazz" is William Christopher Handy, originator of the "blues" note in music. In 1909, it is said, during a political campaign in Memphis, he wrote "Mr. Crump," later renamed "Memphis Blues." From that time to now, we have writhed under a deluge of blues. As daddy of the first of the tribe, he totters, in his old age, under an awful responsibility. In addition to the "Memphis Blues," "St. Louis Blues," "Pasadena," and "Birth of Jazz," he is credited with being daddy to more than 150 other yowlers, more or less well known to lovers of syncopated classics. He is treasurer of the Handy Brothers Music Company, Inc., New York City. Mr. Handy knows more about jazz than Al Jolson, Irving Berlin, and George Gershwin together, and is, to me, one of the most interesting persons in New York. His "Anthology of Blues," published in 1926, is an excellent example of the man's ability to do original work. He is the self-taught son and grandson of African Methodist Episcopal ministers; of ministers who unwittingly became granddady and great granddady, respectively, of that yewling, obstreperous, tinthroated, dizzy-headed youngster vulgarly called Jazz. One of the lesser known personalities in this list is also one of the most frequently seen. Every person who has shielded his eye from those flamboyant covers of popular magazines has, at one time or another, met the torso or features of Maurice Hunter. This little black man with the plastic countenance was born in Dutch Guiana, but has lived almost entirely in New York City. During this time he has worked as waiter and elevator boy, and has posed for illustrations in and covers on such magazines as McCalls, the Crisis, Woman's Home Companion, Country Gentleman, Liberty, Good Housekeeping, and Colliers. Among the books, for the illustrations of which his body has been model, are "Don Careless." by Rex Beach, Vandercook's "Tom Tom" and Melville's "Moby Dick." Artists like Charles Dana Gibson, Daniel Chester French, Frank Godwin, Dean Cornwell, and Eugene Savage depend on him; while sculptors such as John Flannagan and Onorio Ruotole prefer him to any other model. Mr. Hunter impressed me, when I saw him a year ago, as being so deep- A. ly immersed in his work as to prefer talking about it all the time and to whoever ould listen.

It was the perfect body, after all, that the artists wanted. In feature and face he is as typically African as any Negro can possibly be. My interest in James Weldon Johnson was first aroused through my reading "The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man," soon after it was published in 1912. Interest was heightened through reading his editorials in the New York Age. I cannot remember any one of them now, but I do remember a phrase that seemed to glare red-eyed at me from the austere and dignified page, and I have since wondered what could have caused Mr. Johnson to write it. It was an illiteracy frequently used by the Southern Negro preacher: "washed him up," for worshipped. No matter what of Johnson's I have read since then. I have remembered that phrase. It haunts me whenever I see his name. I did not see him in person until some years later, when he addressed the Ford Hall Forum, his subject being "The Negro in Literature." Very vividly do I recall the broad, black cord that festooned from his eyeglasses; the pearl gray spats; the aloof and bored manner in which he mounted the platform, his stick True Stories Achievement Stories FESTING STATES ePRIEST held daintily along the gray-striped leg of his trousers; the languidness of gestures as he talked; and his fre- ```markdown ``` quent - very frequent - reference to his own incomparable accomplishments.

He was just as bored; his stick dangled at just as dainty an angle as it had done on the previous occasion; his spats were just as pearly gray; the broad, black cord on his eyeglasses festooned just as sweepingly; and he was just as languid in his conversation with those around him. You see, those things which interested me in him were purely superficial, but they were so overshadowing in my consciousness that I could not see the man's contributions to American culture.

Their great friend and leader was dead, his work was ended, his home was ten thousand miles away, all hope for them of further employment and gain was gone—why should they remain longer than was necessary to give his body decent burial? At most they might have been expected to mark his last resting place and await opportunity to send word to the outside world, that his friends might come for the body if they chose.

This inscription on a black marble slab in Westminister Abbey suggests but faintly the story of heroic devotion that lies back of it. Little has the world heard of that strange funeral procession of black men which for nine months braved the terrors of the African jungle, as they bore the body of Livingstone to the sea, to be sent back to his home by ship. It is a story so significant and so surprising in its revelation of loyalty, of courage, and determination, of thoughtfulness and delicacy of feeling on the part of the great explorer's untutored followers that it deserves to be recorded among the world's golden deeds. "Kneeling in Death" When in May, 1873, after years of missionary exploration in Central and South Africa, David Livingstone's worn body was able to go no further, his native attendants hurriedly built for him a hut in the village of Chief Chitambo, near the shores of Lake Bangweolo, in the heart of Central Africa. There at dawn a few days later, they found him kneeling in death. trousers, black ribbon as broad as a tape measure festooning from his eyeglasses, pearly gray spats, and a languidness that is achieved only after a decade of the exile among blase tea-sippers whose hobby is listening to Mr. Johnson's heart-breaking descriptions of the American Negro's shabby lot in a cruel land.

SMITH Talented Negro Writer 1 SYNOPSIS Rod Herrick, of Golden Arrow, Montana, has come to Chicago to enter the university. It is spring and he intends to earn enough money to enter school by fall. His lawyer friend, Martin Thompson, takes him to a party given by Alderman Durant for his daughter, Lyla. Rod, unused to society's ways, treads on the girl's foot and is insulted for his clumsiness by Reggie, her fiance. To avert trouble between the two, she takes Rod into the garden where he tells her of his life in the West. A warm friendship springs up between them. Later, Lyla, Reggie, Rod, and several others go to the Swamp Hut, a cabaret, where Reggie drinks too much. He strikes Rod who fails to return his blow. Lyla thinks Rod is a coward, but she learns differently when he takes her from Wolf, a notorious gangster who had snatched her from Reggie's arms while they were dancing. Wolf attacks Rod and is knocked out. Several of Wolf's henchmen also attack the youth but are routed just as police raid the place. Rod is able to get the girl safely out of the place. The next night, as he leaves her home after having spent the evening with her, he is kidnapped by Wolf and his gang, who take him out of the city in their car. They tell him they are going to kill him, but he is saved by federal agents who are laying in wait for bootleggers. As manager of prizefighters, Kling, who was in the cabaret when Rod fought with the gangsters, offers him a contract to become a boxer, and Rod accepts in order to make enough money to enter school. At the gymnasium Kling orders Kelly, another of his boxers, to put on the gloves with Rod, in order to see how skilled his new fighter is. Kelly, afraid that Rod may replace him, tries to harm him when they get into the ring, but Rod knocks him out. That evening Rod goes to see Lyla. They go for a walk to the beach. He tells her of his love and takes her into his arms. Intoxicated with her nearness and softness, he kisses her hungrily, but she averts disaster by begging him not to spoil their friendship. They leave the beach, and as they reach the sidewalk, she discovers that she hasn't her pocketbook. Rod runs back after it and when he returns he sees her being dragged into a car. A half block away, the machine crashes into the sidewalk and Rod is able to catch it. He finds Lyla's abductor is Reggie, who has been drinking heavily. However, Reggie's identity is not known to him until after he has beaten him severely. Lyla, for some reason which he does not understand, becomes angry at him and after they take Reggie to a doctor, tells him to go away. As the days pass, Rod trains faithfully and sees no one except the other fighters in the gym. He does not try to see Lyla. One afternoon his friend, Martin, takes him to a "tea party" at a young society girl's home. There is much gaiety at the party, which Rod soon discovers is caused by free drinking of liquor. He meets a seductive looking girl named Zeda, who makes him take a drink — the first one in his life. Under the influence of the liquor, he kisses Zeda in the hallway of the place and looks up to see Lyla entering. Zeda laughs triumphantly and, pulling Rod into the room, slams the door. Rod goes to Kling's office, where his manager informs him that, in two weeks, he is to fight Mickey Latzo, chief contender for the middleweight championship. They go to the offices of the Arena's manager, where the contract is signed, several newspaper reporters being present. When they leave the place, two of the reporters accompany them. At one of the city's busiest corners, a truck carrying a number of steers, crashes into another machine. One of the animals breaks loose and charges madly across the street. Rod, trained on the range for just such an emergency as this, leaps out in front of the beast as hundreds of people watch in fascinated horror. Directly back of him are a number of small children who will be crushed by the enraged steer unless Rod is able to halt its terrible charge. Rod leaps aside just in time to avoid the charging steer, then, after the fashion of the West, he succeeds in "bulldogging" the animal by twisting its neck so that it falls to the ground. That night he is awakened from sleep by kisses, and by soft hands stroking his face and hair. At first, only half-awake, he dreams it is Lyla, but Zeda's voice brings him to the consciousness that she has come into his room while he slept. She tells him that when she wants a man she "gets" him. Being a normal youth, Rod gives in to her wiles, and returns her kisses and embraces. A more serious development is avoided when Martin, Rod's lawyer friend, arrives. Zeda hides in Rod's closet. Martin brings the evening papers which contain Rod's picture and the story of his exploit. Finally he goes, and Zeda emerges from the closet dressed in Rod's bathrobe, her dress in her hand. Rod stares as she throws off the robe, disclosin her lovely form in sheer silk garments. She holds out her arms to him, and he walks slowly toward her. —NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY— CHAPTER VIII As Rod advanced toward the girl only the faint sounds of their labored breathing could be heard. Then came a peremptory knock on the door. Rod sprang back. his eyes blazed angrily as Martin strode gaily into the room without waiting for an invitation. Upon seeing Zeda he halted, but his amazement was patently feigned. "Why—Zeda! Oh excuse me—I didn't dream" he stammered. ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—April 26.1930 "He Bounded Out of the Place . . ." A man in a suit and hat is running away from two men in suits, one of whom is holding a gun. The attendants . . . gasped in amazement as he plunged out of the door. Rod was about to say something, but Zeda, ner eyes flashing dangerously, cried out: "Oh, you knew very well I was here. That's why you came back, you rotten sneak! You think you have to protect your little friend, eh? Well, if anyone asks me, I'll say you are a hell of a guardian!" Unabashed by his presence she snatched her dress up and with a lithe motion, slipped it over her head. Darting into the clothes closet she The attendants . . . emerged with her small slippers in her hands. Her fury made her tremble, but her voice flowed on like molten lava. "If I were a man I'd knock your grinning face off!" "I'll go," Martin began. "No. I'LL go!" she cried furiously. "I'll go while you tell your friend what a menace I am to little Sunday School boys!" By now she was fully dressed, and had pulled on her hat and coat. She swept up to Martin imperiously. "The trouble with you. big boy, is that you're sore because I'm going for your boy friend instead of you, you poor fish Bah!" With uncontrolled fury, the girl's hand flashed from her side, landing on Martin's face with a loud smack. Martin took the blow without moving. "I'm sorry, Zeda," he said quietly. "Really I am." "Sorry. hell!" Without a further glance at either of them, the girl rushed out of the room. Rod glanced wordlessly at his friend, who was regarding him with evident apprehension. "Now don't be sore, Rod," Martin begged. "I had to do it. If you'll let me explain—" To his great relief, Rod grinned. "How did you know she was here?' he asked curiously. "DETECTIVE" MARTIN "Well, the first thing that told me that something was wrong were those gasped in amazement as he plu rouge marks all over your face. They're still there, if you will go and look in the mirror," Martin explained. Rod grinned ruefully, then went to his mirror. "That girl must use a lot of paint," he commented, as he picked up a towel. "She does. After seeing the rouge I noticed the corner of her pocketbook sticking out from under your covers," Martin went on. "Then I figured it was Zeda, because I could smell that odd perfume she uses. Zeda is the only one in her set who can afford that brand, and she always takes care to let everyone know that it is her exclusive perfume." "Well, even so," Rod said, as he regarded his friend mildly. "why did you come back? I'm not a child, you know, after all." "I know, Kid," Martin sighed, "but I'm your friend—" "Yeah, I know that. That's why I didn't sock you when you came back just now," Rod grinned. "I figured you must have had a darned good reason." "I was afraid I would get socked," Martin admitted, "but, being your friend, I couldn't stand around and let Zeda get her claws in you. Although she is what is called a society girl, there are more scandals about her than any other girl in town, and I happen to know they are true. And what is worse, I happen to know that she runs around with unged out of the door. Wolf!" "Great Scott!" Rod exclaimed in amazement. "Why. I didn't think any nice girl would be caught at a dog fight with that guy!" "Which proves that you don't know your Chicago!" Martin said grimly. "Why, there have been any number of scandals about society girls running after men of the sporting world. I don't know why they do it, unless they're after a thrill. And besides, Kid," his voice became gentle, "you're crazy about Lyla, and she's crazy about you. She's a decent girl, and I think you owe it to her to keep clear of such broads as Zeda." MARTIN'S "BLUNDER" APPRECIATED "Aw, she's not crazy about me," Rod demurred. "Don't kid yourself. You can't blame her for not throwing herself at your head. can you? Call her up 3 A —write her a letter—anything, only don't let her continue with the impression that you are falling for Zeda, a girl she wouldn't even associate with. "By George!" Rod exclaimed, starting for the door, "I'll call her right now!" "It's a little too late to make a respectable call now," Martin objected drily. "Wait until tomorrow." He sighed deeply. "I'm glad that my blundering efforts to keep you straight didn't cause you to fall out with me," he said, as he started out of the room. "It's OK. Marty," Rod smiled at him, "and I'm glad you did it. I'm nobody's goodie-goodie boy, but I have thought I was decent." "That's the stuff!" Martin called back as he started down the steps. The next morning Kling came to Rod's house in his car. "C'mon boy," he greeted, "we got to get down to the gym bright and early." He slapped Rod heartily on the back. "I suppose you read the papers about how you saved all those kids' lives, didn't you?" "Yeah. Last night." Rod confirmed. "How does it feel to be a hero already?" "Rod's teeth flashed whitely as he laughed. "Great!" he confessed, "only I don't see where I'm so much of a hero." They were in Kling's car headed downtown to the gymnasium. Kling punched Rod slyly in the ribs. "Well, everybody else thinks so, Cowboy. And if you think that publicity is going to hurt you, you're all wet. Why, man, they'll be packed in the Arena like sardines the night you fight. Our share of the money will run up pretty high, too." 35,000 SMACKERS "About how much will I get," Rod inquired, thinking of Martin's question of the night before. "I'll tell you," Kling explained. "This light-heavy champ is fighting a chump, and the public knows it. That's the sad part about boxing—the big fellows make a match they know is one-sided and then expect people to pay their good money for it. But Mickey Latzo is popular "And now with this break, you're getting in the newspapers, you and Mickey will be the most important. I'm going to get together with Karnes and get a better cut on the money. If my plans work out our share may be about thirty or thirty-five thousand dollars. That wouldn't be so bad, eh?" Rod whistled in amazement. "Gee whiz, Mr. Kling, that's a bunch of money!" "Sure, but nothing like what we will make if you lick this boy, Latzo!" Kling, told him. "I'll do my best," Rod assured him. At the gymnasium Kling's manner became mysterious. He led Rod cautiously into the place by a rear entrance, and did not relax until they were safely in his dressing room. Kelly greeted Rod with his twisted smile. "Kid, that was a swell thing you did yesterday," he said, throwing his arm about Rod's shoulders. "I don't feel so bad about you knocking me out, now that I know you throw steers around like that!" "Don't kid me, Kelly," Rod grinned, pleased at his comrade's praise. "All right, boys," Kling broke in briskly, "let's get to work. Rod, you get out of your clothes." He hurried to the door which led into the gmnasium. "Mike! Come here and give the Cowboy a rub, will you?" ROD'S FIGHTING INSIGNIA Back at Rod's side he began unfolding a package. Rod watched him curiously, but the masseur entered the room and waved him to the rubbing table before he could see what his manager was unwrapping. After the powerful kneading of his muscles by Mike, Rod felt his blood tingling through his body. When the latter had finished, he bounded off the table shooting swift blows at the air. "Golly, but I feel great." he cried, as he danced around the room. Kling called him. "Lookee!" he commanded, holding up before Rod's gaze a brilliantly crimson dressing gown upon whose back was the black figure of a steer in full charge. "That's what you're going to make your initial appearance before the public in. And that ain't all. Just wait." From the opened package he brought out a pair of sheer black (Continued on Page Four) THE DARK KNIGHT Overnight Relief for Colds, Grippe and Bilious Fever '4 silk boxing tights, and an upper garment of the same material. "Boy, if that won't look swell on that body of yours!" Rod grabbed the garments and began putting them on. When he got the tights and his socks on, he said regretfully, "Gee, I wish I had some new shoes to go with this outfit. I'll get a pair today." "Oh, no, you won't, Kling said with a smile "I already have got you a pair. Here they are." He handed Rod a pair of finely glazed, thin-soled black boxing shoes.

"Now I wish the night of the fight was here, so I could show off my new clothes," he cried, making a pass at Kelly. POSING FOR FANS "You can show 'em off in about two minutes, Kling told him, with a smile which showed that he was pleased with himself, "because outside in the gym right now there is a man from every newspaper in town: and about seven hundred fight fans. And they are all up here because they want to get a peek at you! And don't get scared when the newspaper guys take flashlight pictures." "Oh, Lord!' Rod groaned in dismay. "I'm scared—" "You won't be" Kling assured him. "Just go out there and shadow box, punch the bag and then work a few rounds with Kelly. We got to make the fans like it, and keep the newspapers pluggin' for you." "You'll like it, Cowboy," Kelly assured him, slapping him smartly on the back. Rod hit at him playfully. "OK," he announced with a deep breath. "I'm ready then!" Kling opened the door and stood for a moment while the eager throng in the place stopped watching everything else at the prospect of seeing the Cowboy fighter. Kling grinned expansively and beckoned to Rod. When the latter made his appearance there was a storm of handclapping and many loud cries. "Don't pay 'em no mind." Kling whispered, as he stood with his arm proudly around Rod's shoulders. "Now, hustle out there to the ring and do your stuff!" III Rod left the gymnasium shortly after noon, hi ears still ringing with the unstinted applause the patrons of the place had given him as he went through his paces. The taste of public approbation which he had encountered was sweet to him, but it did not increase his opinion of himself in the least. Always levelheaded, he liked to know that people thought well of him, but he did not let himself believe all that was being said of him. The determination to win in his ensuing fight had grown into a fierce resolve. Kling had filled his ears with talk of wealth, of fame, of being the champion of the world. Rod felt as though he were walking on the clouds. ROD SPEAKS TO LYLA As he passed a drug store, he halted. Why not call Lyla and see if she would allow him to come to see her? Why not take a chance on her saying "yes"? He shrugged his wide shoulders and entered the place with elastic tread. When he had gotten the number, a strange voice answered. "I'd like to speak to Miss Durant," he said. There was a wait of almost two minutes, which seemed like two hours to the impatient youth. At last came Lyla's well remembered voice. "Hello." "Lyla! This is—" "I know who it is. Why haven't you called me up before now, Rod?" "I—well—er—I thought you were angry with me." "I'm not angry. When are you coming to see me?" "Gee whiz, Lyla! That's great. I'm on my way now, if it's all right . . ." "Sure it is. I want to see you badly, too. Hurry, will you—dear?" In the little phone booth Rod tried to dance a jig, his happiness was so great. Finding that impossible, he bounded out of the place and across the floor, capering like a small boy. The attendants in the store gasped in amazement as he plunged out of the door. A passing taxi halted abruptly in answer to his loud hail. He scurried into it, and gave the Durant address. As the machine made its way slowly through the heavy traffic, Rod squirmed around on the seat in an agony of impatience. So Lyla wasn't angry at him after all. He couldn't figure it out. and --- to sell the 35c bottle of Laxana on a guarantee of satisfaction or money refunded. Don't accept anything "just as good."

The knowledge that he was to see her again, made everything else seem of infinite unimportance. LYLA WORRIED When at length the car reached her house he paid the driver and dashed precipitately up the steps. In answer to his ring, the maid opened the door and led him into the same room he had been in on his first visit to the house. Lyla was not in sight. Restlessly he paced up and down the floor like a caged animal. Lyla's voice made him wheel toward her as she entered the room. "Hello, Rod" she said simply. My dear! Rod cried, springing to her side. "I'm so glad to see you." The girl smiled dimly. He noticed that there were dark circles under her eyes, and that her appearance was listless and wan. "What's the matter, Lyla?" he asked anxiously. "Have you been ill?" "Not ill, but worried," she told him, as she led him to the lounge. "Won't you sit down?"

St.Joseph's G.F.P. --- B By THE BOOKER RACIAL INTERMARRIAGE IN THE UNITED STATES, by George S. Schuyler. Little Blue Book No. 1387, edited by E. Haldeman-Julius. Haldeman-Julius Publications, Girard, Kansas. The author gives the "low-down" on intermarriage between the races in this country. In a convincing fashion he explodes the theory that there is a natural aversion between the black and white races; and with a formidable array of facts and statistics carefully compiled, he disproves the widely circulated opinion that no respectable white American, male or female, will marry a Negro. The Haldeman-Julius Blue Books have received widespread circulation, and contain, in quite a valuable series, the works of many noted writers. "OLD MISS" (Houghton Mifflin Company, New York) is a novel of the Sunny South prior to and during the Civil War. The story is fairly well told, but it is filled with portraits of the ante-bellum Negro. Of course, Negroes are tired of this sort of thing. Homes Now Far More Pleasant Than in the Old Days of Drabness. 8v JUNE DAY Colored table glassware-everything complete from the hors d'oeuvre dishes to the demi tasse cups and saucers-is one of the most distinguished contributions to the current vogue for gayety and color which is making our modern homes such pleasant places in which to live and entertain. For a bright and cheerful breakfast we may select a pleasant cloth, and plain glass fruit and cereal dishes, plates, cups, saucers, and all other pieces we need, in any one of a wide variety of lovely shades topaz, amber, rose, green or azure. The same glass is delightful for the informal luncheon, either all in the same shade or in effective combinations; for instance, two tints such as topaz and green glass on a topaz or pale green cloth. The formal meal is fittingly served in colored glass etched in delicate designs. Here we have glass that is a fitting accompaniment to our prized, lace-trimmed Spanish or Italian cloths that we keep for the most important occasions. Colored linens, flowers, fruits and candles make possible an almost infinite number of lovely tables with the new glassware. Entirely practical for the serving of hot foods or liquids, and in patterns, colors and designs to harmonize with any scheme of decoration, the new glass has established a secure place for itself in the modern home.

"I didn't know it was Reggie—really I didn't. I was thinking only of you." "Yes, yes, I know." Lyla cried in a choked voice.

Here is good news for those who suffer the discomfort and torture of rheumatism, gout or neuralgia. A well-known physician has formulated a prescription which is helping to bring safe, sure relief to thousands of rheumatic sufferers. Registered as Prescription C-2223 and recommended by grateful users, it is based on the medical principle that most cases of rheumatism are caused by accumulated waste matter and toxic acids in the system. Liniments and other external applications seldom give more than temporary relief because their action is local. Such remedies fail to correct the cause of ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—April 26.1930 I don't know what it is, but I know that he has. It worries daddy terribly. He has to keep Reggie's father's good will. "After I met you I told daddy that I wanted to break my engagement to Reggie. He didn't say much for a while, then he sighed and told me to go ahead. He said he didn't want to interfere with my happiness, but if I didn't marry Reggie it would put him in a position which would perhaps disgrace him." Lyla's eyes held a far away look. She sat upright, her small hands tearing nervously at her tiny handkerchief. Rod tightened his arm about her, but she did not seem to notice. "I didn't ask him what it was, but he told me a little about it. It will surprise you, too. It seems that Reggie's father and that awful man Wolf, whom you fought that night, are in some kind of partnership, and they have a hold on my father. I think that Wolf is holding some kind of a whip over Reggie's father's head, and he is trying to make my daddy do something. Politics! Ugh! I hate the word!" Sobs choked her, and she buried her face on Rod's shoulder, her small figure racked by the force of her emotion. "Can't anything be done about it?" Rod asked. She shook her head hopelessly. "Nothing, I guess. If only that Wolf wasn't concerned in it! Whatever it is, he is the ring leader. I'd be glad if something happened to him!" she continued with tearful fierceness.

From Chitambo's Village to the Sea (Continued from page two) coast, that it might be sent back to England. The perils of the undertaking they fully realized. It was 1300 miles to the sea. There was no means of transport save their own broad backs and willing limbs. Between them and the distant goal were trackless jungles, ferocious wild beasts, fever-laden swamps, wide rivers and hostile tribes rendered more menacing by the horror of the dead that everywhere prevailed. Yet the little band never questioned or hesitated. Their beloved leader had kinsmen and friends across the seas; they would want his body. He was a great man; he belonged to the world. His remains should sleep among the hohored dead of his race. Thus they reasoned and thus they proceeded to act. They collected all his personal belongings, his instruments and his notes, and carefully packed them for transit. They removed the heart and other viscera and buried them, erecting a marker over the spot. They cautioned the chief to keep the grass cut about the marker, that it might not be destroyed by fire. Dear Miss Fox: For fourteen days the body was dried in the sun. Then it was carefully wrapped in calico and inclosed in a large, cylindrical piece of bark. Over the whole a sheet of sailcloth was sewed and the package was lashed to a pole. Compelled to Stop When all was in readiness, two men shouldered the burden and the little band set out on the long, perilous journey. Already weakened by exposure, it was not long till they were stricken with jungle fever and compelled to lay down their load. When the disease abated and strength returned, they went on again. They crossed the Luapula River where it is four miles wide. They fought their way through a hostile village. Their progress was disputed by a tribe that refused to permit the passage of a dead body, but by a ruse they were able to proceed. Some hundreds of miles from the coast, they met a party of Englishmen who had come out in search of Livingstone. "Give us his things," said the Englsihmen, "but bury the body here, and go home." Accustomed as they were to obey the white man without question and exhausted by their long, hard journey one might have expected that they would eagerly embrace the offered opportunity. But not so. Without objection they turned over the instruments and notes, but with regard to the body they were inflexible. They would not bury it. They would not surrender it to others It must go on to the sea. And go on it did. At last, in February, 1874, the little cortege reached the coast and the sacred burden, which for nine months they had borne on their shoulders, and guarded with their lives, was put on board a ship bound for Eng- ASTHMA Just your name and address will bring you all charges prepaid-a full size bottle of Lane's Famous Treatment.

ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—April 26.1930 How To Be Beautiful By GERALDINE FOX Authority on Health and Beauty An operation for adenoids is the only way to remedy the condition. It is not a dangerous operation if you go to a good doctor, and it may mean all the difference between your boy being a slow thinker—dull and indifferent—all the rest of his life and being a bright, snappy young fellow. Too many parents fear this little operation and as a result ruin all the chances that their children have for growing into happy womanhood or manhood. Take the boy to a doctor and have the operation. Questions and Answers Dear Miss Fox: For quite a long time I have been suffering from a severe pain in my right shoulder. It comes and then goes away, sometimes being away for days at a time. There are other times when it is almost impossible for me to bear it. Your trouble is probably neuritis or something of a similar nature. Use the hot packs during the times when you are suffering from this severe pain. Wring a pad of cloth out of a basin of very hot water and apply to the shoulder covering the wet cloth over with a very thick bath towel or a blanket of some kind. Dear Miss Fox: Will you tell me something that will whiten teeth? Change the pad frequently and keep the painful surface as much covered as possible. It may be that you should go to bed during the times when you are suffering the most pain, but if this is not possible, I advise you to visit some local doctor for an examination. The hot pack is the best thing that I can advise from here. That is simple, Clara. Simply go down to your corner grocery store and buy yourself a box of fine table salt. Sprinkle this on the brush just the same as you would any tooth paste and apply briskly to the teeth, taking care that you do not bruise or break the gums. Brush with an up and down and also crossway movement, and after brushing, rinse the mouth just as carefully as you would if you were using a paste of any kind. Will you tell me something about whether an operation for adenoids is necessary? My little boy, who is eight years old, has them and the doctors say that the only thing to do is to have an operation. It is dangerous and what is your advice? (EDITOR'S NOTE: Geraldine Fox has answered hundreds of letters on health and beauty.
