The trite but very true old couple that:
"The fool that was sent abroad to roam
Excellent the fool that had been left at home."
was a part of the reasons that urged the twenty-seven men in our party to invest some five thousand dollars that breadth of minds, larger sympathies and enlarged views as to actual conditions prevailing in the Southland as studied from a Pullman car might be added to the sum total of our previous information, industrially, socially and commercially, along these lines. And the investment has been more than profitable already, though our tour ended here, and we have scarcely begun our itinerary.
The pleasure, too, we are experiencing has exceeded all expectations. We hazard the opinion that no group of tourists were ever more royally cared for. As yet we have been at no expense whatever for meals, auto rides, souvenirs and the like. And our bill of fare has been of the most expensive variety of foods and delicacies.

Meridian, Miss., April 14—On affidavits investigated by Deputy Fire Marshal, J. L. Donald, Constables Sulpepper and Mosby have arrested Edgar Smith and J. B. Smith, Negroes, on a charge of feloniously setting fire to Bethel Church for Negroes, recently burned. It is alleged the church was burned under suspicious circumstances following a split in the congregation.

Boston, Mass., April 14—The Massachusetts Officers' Association, composed of Negro officers who served in the world war, voted unanimously to petition Gov. Coolidge to make provision, for one machine gun battalion, comprised entirely of Negroes in the reorganized Massachusetts national guard. In the recently announced reorganization program no provision was made for Negro combat troops.

Boston, Mass., April 13.—After rejecting, by a standing vote, the bill described as "an act to secure equal opportunity to all citizens for employment in the street railway companies," the Senate brought to a roll call, somer saulted and passed the bill to a third reading. The bill came from the committee on labor and was based on the petition of Representative Negroes, who declared at the hearing that the Boston Elevated trustees discriminated against Negroes in the matter of employment. The reply to the charge was that the carmen's union would not permit the trustees to hire Negroes as conductors or motormen.

Louisville, Ky., Apr. 12.—The Advisory Committee of the Red Cross Sanitarium, composed of Mrs. J. B. Speed, Mrs. Charles T. Ballard and Mrs. Andrew Cowan, have made an appeal for funds to erect an addition to provide a ward for treatment of Negro children.
Louisville, Ky. April 13.—With a capital stock of $100,000 divided into $40 shares, the Domestic Life and Accident Insurance Company filed articles of incorporation this week and applied to the Insurance Commissioner of Kentucky for a charter. The corporation is composed of Negroes. Incorporators are Roscoe Simmons, William Warley, G. P. Hughes.

bouleards and pretty parks, thus keeping pace in large degree with the great cities of the northland. True the rural neighborhoods are yet sadly lacking; the slap-sided hut, tumbled down fences, razor back hogs and general decay are all too prevalent. The Colored people of the cities, in point of business set our party examples of initiative and co-operation that well might be carried back home, as putting to shame our feeble attempts along this line. The two banks at Memphis with a million of deposits; the fourteen Roddy chain of groceries and stores; the immense casket factory; the two elaborate private hospitals, record only a part of the big concerns seen there.
At Birmingham, besides its banks, stores and factories, its society of Elks number over eleven hundred members, all of one lodge, as but one lodge of this Fraternal Order is permitted in any one city. This Order will be represented next summer at the National Meeting in Kansas City. Traveling as we are and cared for as we have been we have not experienced discomforts or humiliations on account of Jim Crow regulations. We observe it however in the separate ticket windows and waiting rooms for Negroes in the depots. The street cars carry trailers in which Colored people alone ride. In no way as yet has our party been jeered at or pointed at with resentful gaze.
Our steering committee, Prof. J. R. E. Lee and Editor N. C. Crews, have won our lasting gratitude for this wonderful trip. Hamlet left out of the play or Caesar out of the tragedy of that name were as disappointing as the two referred to above left behind while the rest of us stumble on.
LEADERS TOURING SOUTH
MONTGOMERY, ALA., April 13.—The greatest tour of inspection, observation and education ever made by a group of our business and professional men is now in progress. It marks a new epoch in the "affairs of men" and particularly in the affairs of our Race in this country. The Special Pullman, attached to the Frisco Limited, pulled out of the Union Station in Kansas City on schedule time Friday evening. There are on board 27 of the representative men of various interests from the great Middle West city. They left with happy, but serious anticipations, and they have not been disappointed. Arriving in Memphis, the party was met at the station with automobiles headed by a group of leading business men with the following as chairmen: T. H. Hayes, reception; Dr. J. L. Deloney, finance; Dr. W. T. Vernon, program; Rev. T. O. Fuller, general chairman. Breakfast and dinner were served at the community center, and a luncheon at the Industrial Settlement Home. A tour of inspection of the business district, embracing the banks, Roddy's stores insurance companies and mercantile places was made, and later an auto observation drive was made, to the schools, hospitals, outlying business places and other places of interest. The day closed with a reception by the Federation of Women's Clubs at the Community Center.
From Memphis the party went to Birmingham, where they spent Sunday and Monday. The committee of Birmingham business men met the tourists at the station with automobiles, and took them to Elks Rest, which was made the headquarters during the stay. After breakfast the party divided into small groups and attended the various churches, where they were highly honored.
Monday the business men, with Professor Parker as chairman of reception; W. B. Driver, and Hill Harris of other committees gave the visitors a fifty-mile drive through the Blue Ridge Mountains and the magnificent villages of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company. At noon a barbecued dinner was served in the open air. Later in the day the special left for Montgomery.
Great preparations have been made at Tuskegee Institute, Atlanta, Nashville, St. Louis and Louisville, other points on the tour.
COUT LEADER ALTHY WO
At the eighth annual round-up of the Boy Scouts of America at convention Hall, Friday April 9th, our Boy Scouts made a hit with the large audience that filled the hall to witness the demonstrations of Scout Craft. The program started at 8 p.m. with 100 Troops marching around the Arena; and "There was loud applause when the Negro troops marched into sight, banners flying and military precision perfect."—K. C. Post.
When executing the Battalion Drill the Scouts reminded the audience of the Armies of the late War, with "column of fours" formation; but the "Drill honors must be awarded to the Negro Troops which presented an unusual demonstration."—K. C. Star.
"Perhaps the biggest ovation was given at the entry of the Negro Troops with flags flying, for their turn at exhibiting their Scout ability."—K. C. Journal.
This demonstration occurs annually and our Troops are given space on the program, which consists of drilling, signalling, wall-scaling, first aid, pioneering and staff and physical drills.
The success of this demonstration was due to the tireless efforts of Ellis Barber, Assistant Scoutmaster of Troop No. 91, and Scoutmasters Harrison Williams, F. T. Drew, Clarence Lancaster and E. G. Lacey.
The Scout Jazz Band, and their leader made a hit and received loud applause from the time they started until they left the floor, and those who were absent missed a treat by not being present and hearing this band and witnessing this demonstration of our Boy Scouts. The audience applauded every execution of the military drill and went wild over the Semephore flag drill and the Physical drill by the music of "The Stars and strips forever" played by Mr. Hiner's band.
Among the boys, special mention may be made of Scouts Walter Bell, Hugh Cook, Herman Cowan and Harry Cooper. Harry Bell won first prize in a city wide scouting trailing contest a few weeks ago and was presented a medal by the President of the Council, Mr. Ed B. Smith, Hugh Cook and Herman Cowan, receive a compass each for finishing in the finals. Harry Cooper, is the leading Scout at present as he has more Merit Badges than any other Colored Scout and is a member of the Scout Band and they are sorry that Harry disappointed them that night. Rev. F. W. Wells of Sedalia, Mo., was our honored guest and occupied a seat with the Judges. He was sent to witness the round-up by the Local Council of Sedalia, Mo., and he has the only Colored troop of B. S. A. is Sedalia.
A new troop is to be organized this week at The Garrison Square Field House. This movement is for the boys and all boys between the ages of 12 and 18 are invited to join. Men, also are needed in this work. We should "help encourage the boys." Interest yourself in one or more boys in helping them carry out the Scout program. The entire support of the movement comes from popular subscriptions. Is your name on the list? A meeting will be held for the Parents and Guardians of our Boy Scouts at the Community Center, 18th and Vine streets, Friday evening, 8:30 p.m. Business of importance. Please come.
The Unique League which was organized in January to work in connection with the Community Center, has changed their name and will be known in the future as The Community Boys Club. They are planning to assist the unfortunate families of this city in every possible way. There are eleven vacancies for membership for young men between the ages of 18 and 25 who want to serve their fellow man. Call at the Community Center for information. Following is a list of the splendid young men who belong to the club: Officers: C. R. A. Banks, Pres.; Neal F. Herriford, Vice Pres.; Edward Layne, Sec'y.; A. H. Hamilton, Treas.; Lincoln Chester, Asst. Sec'y.; Entertainment Com-Joe Grayson, Chairman; Vernon Bond, Harry Maynard, P. A. Crutchfield.

Wealthy Woman Remembers Negro Girls in Will
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
New' York, N. Y., April 12—Miss Lucy M. Spelman, sister-in-law of John D. Rockefeller, divided the reside of her estate into two equal parts, according to her will, filed recently in the Surrogates' Court. She gave one part to Oberlin College to prepare girls for service in foreign missionary fields and one part to the General Educational Board of the District of Columbia to prepare Negro girls to be graduate nurses.
GREAT MASS MEETING AT LIN COLN HIGH.
"If we don't stop the burning of Negroes in Texas, the day will come when Negroes will be burned in Kansas City," said Dean William Pickens Sunday afternoon. Lincoln High School Auditorium was full when Mr. A. Frank Neal, President of the Kansas City Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. introduced Prof. William Pickens, Field worker of the National Association:
Mr. Pickens is a wonderful man. For two hours he poured forth a torrent of eloquent, logical reasoning on the relation of the races black and white in America punctured frequently by side splitting tress and antecotes which sent home the truth with telling effect.
"The problems of the south are our problems, whether we live in Kansas City, New York City, Massachusetts or California, and we must organize as a race to fight for our rights, civil, social, and industrial. The white man's race prejudice toward dark skins is as unreasonable as it would be toward red hair or any other outside appearance. It exists because of his ignorance, because he doesn't know us as well as we know him. For instance—
"There is no white man's home in Georgia fit to go into that Negroes have not been in from garrett to cellar. They know just how much civilization or lack of it is in that family. There is no Negro home in Georgia fit to go into that any white man fit to go into it, has been in. Negroes read the white man's newspapers and know everything he says and thinks. Very few whites read the Negro papers." "Our great need today is getting together the best members of both races to think and plan and works together for the best interests of the whole group.
"Every unprotected Negro is unconsciously a threat to civilization. One undefended Negro in Omaha caused a riot that wrecked their magnificent Court House to the value of one million dollars. Men went mad in their effort to get this victim to burn alive. Now they are as ashamed as they look

PORO CLUB GREETS MDME
MALONE.
More than eighty-five agents greeted Mrs. A. M. Malone, owner of Poro College and originator of the famous Poro Hair Treatment of St. Louis, Mo., at the Y. M. C. A. Monday evening, April 12.
The Club arose and sang "Brighten the Corner," after which we had prayed by our Chapla, Mrs. Josephine Franklin; the President, Mrs. Ida Brown, then introduced Mrs. Malone to the Club and hearty applueses greeted her as she arose and met her many agents of Missouri and Kansas. She gave us many ideas in regard to our Club work and with her charming manner, kind words and ever ready smiles, she won the hearts of all.
Mrs. Malone was quite pleased with the excellent report of Club's work by Mrs. Lade B. Smith; also the talk by Mrs. Cora D. Williams on "Poro Day." Mrs. Ida Johnson of Poro College advised the Agents to attend the College and take the new studies that have been recently added. The talks by Mrs. S. B. Peck and Mrs. Mabel Breedlove were very good.
The Agents thanked Mrs. Malone for coming to them, after which refreshments were served in the Y. M. C. A. Cafeteria.
To form a $100.000
Liberian Investment Co.
I am daring enough to ask you to support me in a Hundred Thousand Dollar Corporation by subscribing for shares of stock in a Liberian Investment Company. I firmly believe that you will do it. Read carefully this article and other articles to follow, turn the matter over in your mind, think what it will mean to you as an investor, what it will mean to Liberia, and I want you to think and feel that I, the promoter, is honest, capable and will deal fairly with all concerned. I am sure that your trust will not be betrayed.
This appeal is obviously essential—it is urgent and in its hopes of realization, largely rests the key to the solution of the much debated race problem. The American Negro has, by fear, mistrust, jealousy and the lack of confidence in each other, closed the door of opportunity in his own face, by failing to support his infant co-operations and stock companies. Look about you and study your millionaire in the making and observe his action. He could not afford to lend his money at 3 per cent. He found a better way, he had faith to believe, he trusted his fellowmen, he is doing it every day. Whom do you know that is making money without trusting someone?
The millionaire had faith in his fellows. He was not a subscriber to the fallacy that "all men are liars." He

bought shares of stock in new adventures, he put money into the patent, the store, the factory, the laboratory, the mill and the mines. Some of them made his dollars grow into millions. Down in the heart of Missouri, I knew a two-headed, cross-eyed white boy; we fished, played and even fought together as boys. He was so poor then, he was dubbed by everyone as rags. I met "rags" some time ago, we had not met since we were boys. It would not sound right to call him "rags" now, he is fabulously rich, you know. "How did you make your fortune?" I asked him, "backing an idea, just an idea; I knew a man who had an idea that he could do a certain thing; he capitalized the idea. I was one of the few who believed in him, he made us all rich," he replied. This is one of many thousand instances where men have made millions backing brains. I have an idea, too, will you back me? My idea has a double edge, so to speak, it cuts both ways, going and coming; On the West Coast of Africa, about four degrees North of the equator, lies Liberia, a Negro Republic, the only place on earth where a black man is really free. Her country is undeveloped, she invites the American Negro to come with money and brains (it is the only place where a blackman's brains is in demand) to help build railroads, develop its rich mines, install modern machinery to farm their fertile lands and to stimulate industry generally throughout the Republic.
The capitalists of Europe made millions developing this country when it was new—you can do the same thing in Liberia. I would like to organize a $100,000, profit sharing stock company for that purpose. I want ten thousand people to buy this stock, each investing ten dollars, $100,000 is not enough, but it will be a good start. Will you subscribe to this plan of action, or are you scared because of the many failures you have met with in Negro enterprises? They failed, no doubt, because you did not support them. Every Negro stock company is operated up.

Dear Dr. Logan:
As a volunteer testimony, I wish to say that I had suffered for many years with rheumatism with such severity that I could hardly walk and could not sleep at night for pains in my feet and legs.

There are some self made seemingly successful people that kick and knock every thing that comes their way; not only do they look down upon the struggles that are far their superiors but they proceed to dig the dirt from beneath the climbing aspirant, and in so doing slip themselves. There is plenty of room at the top and if one is not willing to assist or lend a hand to the one coming up, they can at least step over with out stepping off. The great

trouble with many is that they fear the one coming prepared with the real goods to deliver; so they proceed to knock. Little thinking that every knock is a boost while every gold mine will be discovered. The best evidence or proof is that these things have and will come about. Out and out opposition is better than indifference.

Robert Warwick in "Mizzoura"
Colonel Warwick cannot be excelled for his dramatic art. In this picture he is an uncouth sheriff whose sweetheart has been deceived by a soft spoken scoundrell, who is a murderer as well. Another has been blamed for the crime and a lynching mob is howling for a victim. This picture will please the eye, thrill the blood and touch the heart. Lightening Brice, Episode 4 Pathie Review

MUSICAL PROGRAM BY LINCOLN ORCHESTRA
DEAN PICKENS ON "FREDERICK DOUGLASS."
Prof. Pickens delivered a scholarly address on "Frederick Douglas" at Allen Chapel Sunday night. The heavy rain kept many away but those present enjoyed a rare treat.
The richness of his vocabulary, vividness of his word pictures, and his beautifully balanced and contrasted phrases, present to his audience unforgettable scenes in the life of this greatest Negro, born in the most abject slavery, struggling to manhood under the cruelest of masters. Finally looking down at his heels and realizing that God had given him them to run with, he made the dash for freedom and then threw himself into the Abolition Movement which ended in the Emancipation.
Many lessons for us were pointed out, all being summed up in the closing sentence, "If Mr. Douglass were alive today, he would be ashamed not to be a member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People."
MACON, MO.
Rev. P. C. Crews was called out on his District last Thursday....Easter services were held at Bethel A. M. E. church Sunday until 11 o'clock; though the rain came down steadily most all day, about sixty children came out and took part in the Easter program.

A COMING CONFERENCE
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored people will hold its Eleventh Annual Conference i the city of Atlanta, Ga., this year. This is a forward step.
Selfishness, greed and the purpose of unrighteous power have been the chief agencies producing the social sickness of the world. The white South is mistaken in its conception of social duty. There is no substantial social value in a blind adherence to the traditions of the period that created and maintained the institution of chattel slavery. It is an assumption, pure and simple, which seeks to establish a worthwhile instance of superior social instinct, in the recollection of an inept and vicious maintenance of slave and master relations under any circumstances of social situations.
New and binding responsibilities have come to black and white alike. Each must do its full part in the work of world social betterment. The sun knows no race. Time knows no race. Eternity knows no race. Lest we forget, we say again, the world must be made safe for Humanity.
A RIOT OF FUN AT THE AUDITORIUM.
Kansas City was given a treat in the theatricals at the Auditorium this week where Frank Montgomery held the fort with his company of merry makers in "Hello 1919." They kept the audience in one continuous uproar of laughter. It was a riot of fun from start to finish. "Hello 1919" will continue the balance of this week giving the last performance on Sunday night. Beginning Monday, April 19th, Mr. Montgomery will put on his master piece, "Follies and Fancies of 1920." If you have enjoyed "Hello 1919" do not fail to see "Follies and Fancies."

Each Church Number
~and for
34 Years Work
THAT is the kind of increase in salary the minister has received. His living expenses have risen just as fast and as far as yours.
But he is paid on the average just 52 cents more per church member than he was paid 34 years ago.
The Minister Never Fails You
Every officer of the Government with a war message to deliver appealed to the ministers first of all.
But 80% of the ministers receive less income than government economists figure as a minimum for the support of an average family.
When hospitals need money they enlist the support of the ministers—and receive it.
But when sickness visits the minister or the members of his family they must be treated in a charity ward. His pay is less than a day laborer's.
8 out of every 10 ministers receive less than $20 a week—about half the pay of a mechanic.
We Pay Him Half the Wages of a Mechanic
And of these pitifully inadequate salaries, how much do you contribute? Nothing if you are outside the church; an average of less than 3c a day if you are a church member. All of us share in the benefits of Christian ministers to the community. They marry us; bury us; baptize our children; visit us when we are sick. In their hands is the spiritual training of the youth.
Part of the Interchurch World program is this—a living wage for every minister of Jesus Christ; an efficient plant, and a chance to do a big man's job.
If you want better preachers, help to pay the preachers better. It's the best investment for your community—and for your children—that you can ever make.

If a dollar is restored to bullion it is worth 129 cents, if invested in food products it is worth the proverbial 30c.
The New York World, a Democratic paper commenting editorially on the Douglass candidacy for the Hall of Fame says: "But the Merit of Douglass for Commemoration has nothing to do with his Color. His fame meets the Caucasian tests, and it is as a famous American not as a Negro that he deserves recognition."
---
Anyone or anything bearing the name of Toussaint L'Onverture must be considered the quintessence of reliability; so it wins out in the cast of Toussaint L'Onverture Lambert, who recently celebrated his fiftieth anniversary as mail carrier at the Detroit, Michigan, P. O. During this unusual period he has never missed a day from service.
For a shoat and a $5.00 bill a Colored mother parted with her ten year old boy a few years ago and died soon after in Senatobia, Miss. The grandmother entered a writ of habeas corpus against the white purchaser, John Smith and recovered her boy; the judge holding that the compensation was too little. Did somebody say a Negro could not get justice in Mississippi.
---
It does not matter how white a Negro person may be in any community, if he is known to be of the Negro race, he is limited in the exercise of all of his rights and privileges of citizenship, in politics, in public affairs, as a wage-earner, as a churchman, in social affairs. It is not possible for such a person to be satisfied with his life or the results of his labors as a citizen—The Washington, D. C. Eagle.
The press creates public sentiment, Patriotism and national self-preservation demand that sentiment should be such as to bind all Americans, no matter what their ancestry, more closely, together and not extrange them. The press of America is doing this by its indefensible and senseless treatment of colored Americans—The Omaha, Nebr., Monitor.
Reconstruction moves silently. It cannot be seen. Yet the institutional life of America is being shaped somehow by a world's war that has ended, and by suggestions that the war has made, and by instant modern thought that seeks to improve the order of old things. In the fields of industry, education, government and home life a new spirit is being injected. A new management and a new purpose is occupying the mind.—The indianapolis, Ind., Recorder.
Occasionally it is necessary to call the attention of not a few of our group to playing FAIR with the members of our race. There are some who get their living solely from the race and in return they give back nothing. They patronize no colored business. They preach a gospel that is ideal, but in the practice they are as far from it as Heaven from Hell.—The Memphis Times.
We have waited in vain to hear of "Bull" "Mick" Nabb disavowing having said that he was opposed to "Nigger women voting." That a man in a northern state should make so disgustingly vulgar an utterance is surprising to us even though he is a "Mick" Nabb—The Wilmington, Del., Advocate.
The Chamber of Commerce of Pine Bluff, Ark, recently inserted a full page advertisement in the local morning paper which bespoke for that body both originality and common sense. The advertisement declared it a self evident fact that "the rational contentment, prosperity and progress of the Negroes of our country are essential factors in the permanent prosperity of our community as a whole."—Indianapolis, Freeman.
EDUCATING LEADERS.
We hear a great deal these days about "educating leaders." Every half baked agitator and professional social welfare worker, one meets, is busy perfecting and advancing ideas which they claim will provide the race with the leaders it so "sadly needs."
These "pay-rolls" philosophers and measureable prophets overlook the simple sociological fact that leaders in the broad and gifted sense are "born and not made." They forget, apparently, that the upward growth of social understanding has ever been the basic element out of which have come the "race leaders" of all times.
This race of ours is made in the same mold from which has come all the other great historical social groups. It may be added in the same breath, that conceit, caddishness and controlling desire constitutes about all there is of social potency for good in the current slogan—"We must educate leaders."
They may not be with us now, in that large and eclectic sense which directs the deeper motives of historical purpose. But they will come. Out of the fine spiritual endowment of the race leaders will be born who will feel deeply and see far. This is the inevitable time bound to come and bound to govern.

THEY SAY
—That the poor of today may be the rich of tomorrow.
—That too much sleep is as bad on some folks as too much whiskey.
—That good manners are a gift. Some folks ought to pray for this gift.
—That unless a man is capable of inventing excuses, he should remain in the bachelor class.
—That some people are so anxious to "say something" that they have to hold their tongues to keep their mouths shut.
—That the person who shuts the (Kansas City) Sun out of his home, shuts out the most beneficial rays he could possess.
—That the individual who hasn't succeeded in life nor has done one thing to help in the material advancement of the world is not in a position to give advice.

Sunday was a great day at St. Paul.
We held our Second Quarter and it was a great success. Our dear Presiding Elder, Rev. W. H. Prince, was with us and preached at the morning service. Everyone present was made to rejoice as he spoke to us of God's work... St. Paul is going to do everything in its power to make this a successful year. We have hopes in the small but good beginning, under the charge of Rev. Geo. Hollow... Our Sacramental services were held at 3:00 p. m. and well attended. The congregation was largely from Ebenezer church; this was encouraging and appreciated Rev. F. F. Moten preached for us at this hour. We had the presence of Dr. Freeman and Dr. Horsey of Ward Chapel... Sister Winters served dinner at which Rev. Prince, Rev. and Mrs. Geo. Hollow were present.

The Sunday school, which opened at 8:30, was well attended and filled with enthusiasm; the Superintendent together with the teachers, is putting every effort to make this the banner year in Sunday School work. ...At 11:00 o'clock the morning began with the usual ritualistic service; this is always very effective indeed. Rev. Kilpatrick of Eufaula, Okla., a minister in attendance at the M. A. Conference of Kansas, preached. ...At 6:00 o'clock the Endeavor had a splended meeting. Prof. Gregg of Western University gave a beautiful address and spent the remainder of the evening in the service. At 8:00 o'clock Rev. Wooten of Bonner preached to a splendid audience. We were glad to have Prof. Gregg worship with us. Beginning next Tuesday evening at Bethel Church there will be a Great Civic and Educational Congress held through the balance of the week, ending Sunday, April 25th. Program: Tuesday evening April 20 an Old Fashioned Class Meeting; Wednesday April 21 the Faculty of the Attucks School and the local talent will have charge of the program; Thursday evening April 22 Wendell Phillips School Faculty and the local talent will have charge of the program; Friday evening April 23rd, Lincoln High School will have charge of the program ending with a beautiful play.

On Sunday, April 18, at The Century theater, will appear one of the season's best bites in a burlesque attraction, the famous Monte Carlo Girls. The show this season, more than any other is replete with comedy of the highest type and topped with a cast of principals hard to equal in this field of entertainment.
Heading the list of entertainers is that inimitable acrobatic tramp comedian Frank Rage Murphy, who needs no introduction to popular burlesque patrons. Fred Reeb an eccentric comic of merit is paired off with Frank Murphy for laugh getting purposes. John "Gravey" Hudgins one of the cleverest delineators of the black face singers and dancers is also a member of this superior cast, besides Sarah Hyatt an attractive prima donna with a beautiful voice.
Grace Tremont the speed fiend of musical comedy is the peppery soubrette of the show. There is also Albert Fowler and Dot Morton. Then there is Earl Hall straight and character man, also Jake Kennedy wonderful acrobat and also twenty-five other artists in the cast including a chorus of devilish dancing mermals.
