A Young Woman's Christian Association Center for the Colored Girls of Kansas City
The government of our country is strenuously interested in what is to become of the Colored girls now that the war work has let down. 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. For the girl life of Kansas City—give until you feel it, give to the extent of your interest in the girlhood of this city.

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

The above is an excellent likeness of one of the most beloved as well as hard working Priests of the Roman Catholic clergy in the entire West. 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.

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. Thirty-six other characters—all home talent.

But the boys? What of the boys who sacrificed more ee you

Is it not worth as much to you to bring your heroes home as it was

Banks of the 805th Pioneer Infantry
writes the following little poem en-
{ied “The Souvenir”
1 have no German helmet,
No watch, ring or an iron cross,
Altho to the front I was sent,
Perhaps 1 should regret my loss.
U did not see the Fatherland
Nor cross the River Rhine,
{fought until 1 could not stand
And did my best while on the line.
Wot 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,
vor give happiness at a glance,
‘The only souvenir I bring
fs a mother’s son from France.
Sgt. Banks writes that they hope to
rolurn home in time to play tennis.
also that the Sun is one source o}
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.
‘Wo have all heard of Walker Weston,
or he was the demon of the road,
But he would have never made a
record
Had he pulled a heayy load.
Now I am an honest, faithful soldier,
They may call me Rookie Jack
Dut a like to see the old boy's record
With « pack upon his back.
We have heard of General Sherman
‘And his march down to the sea,
Tam sure his men were weary,
Just as tired as they could ‘be,
But Sherman's men were little bur-
dened,
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;
T will tell you why I know:
{ hiked all the way from a camp called
Merritt,
Down the pike to the Alpine shore.
A hardened soldier would forget it,
Should be take a stroll like that,
But that was the first time I had
hustled
‘With a real pack upon my back.
‘When your bumpie bumps against you
And you curse and stumble on,
When your feet are two stone bruises,
How you will wish you were at
home
‘When weak men fall along the way-
side,
Like battle fields with dead are
strewn;
When strong and sturdy are barely
moving,
Bowod 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,
{he 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,”
