The Y. W. C. A. was called on tremendously to meet the needs of these girls during the war. Thirteen hostess houses were built and maintained in camps, at a cost of from $10,000 to $75,000 each. Association centers were opened in all the large war supply manufacturing centers. The Colored Y. W. C. A. has gone fifty years ahead during the war. Only five years ago a conference was held to decide what should and could be done for the Col- give to girls the opportunity to get the right kind of work, right recreation, the right advice and the benefit of personal conferences. We need a center from which all work can radiate. The center chosen is Twelfth street and Euclid avenue. It is a beautiful place, open, clean, attractive. We can't build up clean life in a dirty place. The girl must have love for the beautiful, cheer, play, companionship, advice, an inspiration to be something.

HOME. ored girls, and then it was decided to go slowly and try out each step. The war swept aside this cautious move and $300,000 was appropriated last year; $400,000 is to be expended this year on the Colored work. Before the war we had nine secretaries and 16 centers. Now we have 13 National secretaries and 110 secretaries in local work in more than 40 cities. With the Central Association, the most popular thing is to have as quickly as possible a center for Colored girls. The Association cannot say it is meeting the needs of all the girls unless it is serving the needs of the Colored girls. We have tested out just what preventive work does to protect and develop Colored girls that they may take their place in the industrial world. War work centers are now asking to be made regular Y. W. C. A. centers. Miss Minor of New York investigated the Night Courts, where thousands of girls are tried and sentenced between dark and dawn, and she found that two-thirds of these girls are in the courts for one of three reasons: 1. Lack of employment or low wages. A girl finds herself in the wrong situation; she does not ftt in, is inefficient, not up to the job, or she meets prejudice. Millions of girls are poured into communities every year without enough training to do anything well. The girl becomes discouraged. Somebody must make that thing loom up large enough in the girl's mind to make her feel worth while. 2. Recreation. Everybody needs friends, social life. A girl's home is small, no parlor, crowded out. Where she goes to seek recreation decides her life; she has no place to meet a group of happy friends. 3. Bad companionship. In its effort to keep the soldier fit, the Government called in the Y. W. C. A. to WHY PAY RENT? You have the money— We have the house you want to buy. Look over our list and select the one you want: 2309 Michigan—$2200.00. 1716 Tracy—7 rooms, $2850.00. 1716 Woodland Ave—10 rooms, $3000. 9 rms, duplex, 10th and Paseo, $5500. 2022 Olive—6 rooms, water and gas, $2050.00. 2 nice 4-room houses, newly remodeled and painted; 1420-22 Belvidere; bargain, $75.00 down and balance like rent. 1110 East 19th St—Duplex at $5500.

Father Cyprian is the pastor of St. Monica's Parish for Colored Catholics, located at 17th and Lydia, and has been in charge ever since it was founded by him five years ago in St. John's Parish Church, Missouri avenue and Campbell streets. After the organization of the Mission the property now occupied by the Church and School was acquired, when the congregation consisted of only forty members scattered throughout the entire city. Through the faithful, persistent and untiring effort of this beloved Father in God the membership has been increased to nearly three hundred, including some of the most intelligent and influential people in this city. And also have a splendid Parochial School with nearly a hundred pupils in attendance, conducted by the devoted Sisters of the Order of St. Francis, conducted as the other Parochial schools of the city are conducted. Although very frail and suffering a deal of illness, Father Cyprian constantly prayed "If it be the will of the Master, that he be spared to continue his work among our people in this city," and though he lost his voice during a severe attack of pneumonia, God restored it to him as a reward for his marvelous work on last Christmas morning. Services were held at St. Monica's cach Sunday morning, to which the public is always welcome, and instruction in the faith is given to all who desire it after services. On the first Sunday in May there will be a class of thirty baptized, and about the middle of June the brilliant Rev. Father Dorssey of Baltimore, Md., as a few Negro priests in America, will hold a ten days' Mission (same as a revival in our other churches), which all are invited and urged to attend. Would that there were more men in our community of the other race like our beloved Father Cyprian. "TO MY LOOKING-GLASS" (By Chase P. Wilson, Jefferson City, Mo.) Let's see, Jim! You're thirty--you're just in your prime. And still you have had have a bit of a time In your score and a half of the fast fleeting years, While jolity measured a two-step with tears. There's a scatter of silver among all the brown, And a wrinkle or two like the ghost of a frown. Oh, that is but nature extorting her fee! I smiled at my mirror--it smiled at me. You've wandered quite far from the path of the wise, But yet there's a look that is good in your eyes, I know you're accoutured with garments of gray, And this is experience showing the way. They may say you are deep in the muck pits, my boy; But the fruits of the eerie righteous I know you enjoy, Believe in yourself; let your conscience be free. I smiled at my mirror--it smiled at me. Take friendship where friendship may ever be found, Keep your eyes to the East and your feet on the groun', Be brother to brothers, a being of trust, And trail all your enmity back in the dust. Don't ask, but just show; that's the way of success— There's many a handicap harder, I guess— And, Jim, you are safe when the others may see— I smiled at my mirror--it smiled at me.

It is with great sorrow and sympathy that we record the death of one of the best women that resided on North 3d Street. She was loved and reverenced by every one in the neighborhood. One of the most cheerful women we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. In fact she was the mother of the whole neighborhood. We speak of the late Mrs. Fannie Hansburg, who was born in Culpepper County, Va. in 1849 and departed this life April the 10th, 1919. She was a Christian woman and never lost an opportunity to speak a word for the Master. She was the life of the community and many are they that sought her advice and counsel. Her greatest desire was to live to see all of her grandchildren safe in the Christian fold, which she lived to see. Her death was but a sleep and we feel that if there is one that went home to their Maker Sister Hansburg did. She was a member of Reverend Bacote's church from which her funeral was preached at 2:30 p. m. Sunday. Her grandsons spared no pains in seeing that she was put away nicely and the floral offerings of the many friends were beautiful. She leaves a daughter, Lizzie Duncan, two grandmothers, Messrs. Edward Hill and Frank Duncan and a devoted daughter-in-law, Mrs. Edward Hill, with whom she had made her home. CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our many friends and neeighbors for their kindness and sympathy in our recent bereavement during the illness and death of our mother, Mrs. Fannie Hansburg, who departed this Life April 10, 1919. We especially thank them for the many beautiful floral offerings and also serve ice rendered. Praying the blessing of God upon you. We are grateful Mrs. Lizzie Duncan, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Hill.

The "New York Herald" in commenting upon it said that Mr. Drury had overturned tradition as it had always been thought that the Negro could not rise above the banjo and ragtime. Many other papers in Europe and America commented upon this remarkable fact. Mr. Drury also gave a week's performance of opera at the Fourteenth which was both a fine service, despite weather.

In the line of oratorios he has given the entire "Stabat mater" by Rossini under the auspices of the Boston Historical and Literary Society, and also another oratorio, "The Hymn of Praise," by Mendelsohn, the most difficult of musical works extant with great success, a chorus of 200 voices singing in these oratorios. The latter sung for the first time in Boston by the Drury Musical Art Club.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. Excelsior Court, No. 14 A, Mrs. May Woods, W. C.; Mrs. Mary P, Day, R. D. will occupy a box at the Auditorium Theater, May 15-16, and display their beautiful, large $15 banner. Mr. Oscar Micheaux, author of, "Homesteader," is in the city this week supervising the showing of his famous film based on that great novel. He reports wonderful success every where. The Sun takes pleasure in calling the attention of its 20,000 readers to the patriotic and progressive citizens of the race who contributed a full page ad to the cause of the Victory Loan in this issue of our paper. The Negro has never been a lagger in any matter affecting the interest of America, and if treated fairly, will prove the most valuable asset to America's institution in the future as he has in the past. A representative of the Sun attended the drama, "Who's Who" rendered by the Braithwaite Players, composed of students of Western University and was astonished at the splendid rendition of the play. Much credit is due Prof. Caswell Crews, for not only the, excellent manner in which the players rendered the play but for the composition of the drama. This is something new at Western University and Prof. Crews deserves the support and co-operation of the faculty, student body and the entire community in his effort. The splendid spirit with which the Colored people are entering into the Rally for the Y. M. C. A. demonstrates and encouraging and hopeful sign of racial loyalty and adhesion that speaks well for the future. That there is need for a Y. W. C. A. goes without saying and that our people will gallantly rally and assist the splendid women who are behind this movement it putting it over the top is a foregone conclusion. If you have not subscribed, be sure and do so and have your name recorded on the roll of honor, president, $123.00. The president, The tremendous crowds that have packed Love's Theatre during the past week at the prices of twenty-five cents with war tax added, demonstrates that the best Colored people will without complaint pay the top prices for the best picture plays, and Mr. Love has covered himself with glory during this week by the two immensely popular plays he has thrown upon the screen. The greatest Negro play, "The Homesteader" and the most intensely thrilling white play of the season, "The Eyes of the World." Sixty-one automobiles were counted in the territory adjacent to Love's Theatre last Wednesday night and a constant waiting line was in front of the box office until the last show. Mr. Love is giving out to people what they have been wishing for for years and they're amply demonstrating the wisdom of his investment. H, Nick Carter and Theodore Drury professional actors of national reputation, will play the roles of "Damon and Pythias" at the Auditorium Theater May 15-16.

Ballinger and James Evans of the 806th Infantry all send kindest regards to their friends. Corporal T. W. Tyus of the 805th Pioneer Infantry writes that everybody there is enthusiastic over baseball just now. He says throughout their games thee band plays music continuously. Miss Annis Palmer received word from her fiance, Corporal Henry C. Cullors, that he was well and expects to sail for America soon; that he is traveling with General Pershing on his special train and has been or about nine months. He sends his love to all and says look for him soon. Musician O. F. Wanzer of the S06th Pioneer Infantry says the boys are very busy just now, but when they get ready to start home, he doesn't intend to be left behind. He says the Sun was sent to them by his mother and you would have thought it was a "free-for-all grab," the way the boys carried on about the news from home. Sergt. Arthur J. Willis, formerly of Liberty, Mo., writes that he likes France and has been selected as one of the students of the Allied British Universities in England, the course to last four months. He wishes to be rememberede aby his many friends, including Prof. R. G. Jackson and Prof. C. R. Westmoreland. Lieut C. F. Corbett returned to Hartshorne, Okla., from France and addressed a most enthusiastic audience in that city. His subject was "The Negro's Part in the World War and the Part the War Has Played on the World's Civilization." The address was inspiring and appreciated by the vast crowd that attended. He immediately returned to Little Rock, where he was discharged from service. Regimental Sgt. Major C. R. A. Banks of the 805th Pioneer Infantry writes the following little poem entitled "The Souvenir": I have no German helmet, No watch, ring or an iron cross, Altho to the front I was sent, Perhaps I should regret my loss. I did not see the Fatherland Nor cross the River Rhine, I fought until I could not stand And did my best while on the line. Not one trinket have I to show From the cold, bloody battle field, What good are they, I'd like to know, Would they a wounded heart heal? Gifts will not make a sad soul sing, Nor give happiness at a glance, The only souvenir I bring Is a mother's son from France. Sgt. Banks writes that they hope to return home in time to play tennis, also that the Sun is one source of pleasure to the boys. He wishes to be remembered by his many friends. THE REAL HIKE By Sergt. Leonard R. Jackson, Co. H. 815th Pioneer Inf. Reg. We have all heard of Walker Weston, For he was the demon of the road. But he would have never made a record Had he pulled a heavy load. Now I am an honest, faithful soldier, They may call me Rookie Jack. But I'd like to see the old boy's record With a pack upon his back. We have heard of General Sherman And his march down to the sea, I am sure his men were weary, Just as tired as they could be. But Sherman's men were little burdened, For they marched in perfect line, For there is no use to pack men heavy In the Land of Summer Time. Hike and pike are close related; I will tell you why I know: I hiked all the way from a camp called Merritt. Down the pike to the Alpine shore. A hardened soldier would forget it, Should he take a stroll like that, But that was the first time I had hustled With a real pack upon my back. When your bumble bumps against you And you curse and stumble on, When your feet are two stone brushes. How you will wish you were at home. When weak men fall along the way-side. Like battle fields with dead are strenwn; When strong and sturdy are barely moving, Bowed down, but traveling on. When your eyes play mean tricks on you, Floating pork-chops you can see; When you find your canteen empty, When you tremble at the knee, The old-timers don't think it funny, And you may call it what you like, But the Army knows that I'm not joking. When I call it , "The Real Hike." The following letter was received from H. K. Perry of 1013 Michigan avenue: Kansas City Sun. Dear Editor: I have read with much concern your publication in The Sun of the 12th first, under the heading "Local JLM Crowism" and I adopt this method of expressing to you my highest approval of the stand you have taken in defense of our people and I sincerely hope that the ministers and other professional men and women of our race will give you their earnest support in denouncing and resenting such insults that are being heaped upon our people, and as for myself, I assure you I will not enter the Ten Cent Store in question. Respectfully, H. K. PERRY. --- --- FINISH THE JOB VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, APRIL 19, 1919 [Illustration of a large ship in a rainy environment, with the Statue of Liberty in the background.] Millions of boys went over the foam for you. Hundreds of thousands were in the fight for your liberty. Thousands fell, upholding your cause. They won. They sacrificed. Some of them died, but they won. They wrote American heroism into the pages of European history, a history already blood-red with heroism. No greater bravery is recorded than that given to world freedom by American boys. Their work, most of it, is over. Now, what of your share? Your duty is before you as plainly as was theirs when their country called. They answered the CALL OF HONOR. The same call is sounding for you today. It demands YOUR ANSWER. "You have subscribed," did you say? So much to your credit. The heat of battle was on. The thirsty Hun was at your shores. The money you lent under the impulse of hatred and fear of the foe was money well invested. Except for that investment, you might have lost all to the lust and greed of a conquering horde. You subscribed, and the nation is grateful for your aid. But the boys? What of the boys who sacrificed more than you did? What of those who faced the foe, whom you sent to stop the rush upon Paris--and who stopped it? Is it not worth as much to you to bring your heroes home as it was to send them? America must welcome its victors to peace and prosperity as eagerly as it wished them God-speed to battle. Dollars protected by the Yanks who fought must bring the fighters home.
