BRAZIL ELECTS COLORED MAN AS PRESIDENT
Nilo Pecamba, Premier of Brazil, Elected President by Big Majority.
FIRST RETURNS SHOW PREMIER VICTORIOUS
New Government Head Has Been Prominent in Public Life Since 1898.
(Associated Negro Press)
Rio De Janerio, Brazil, S. A., Apr. 12—Colored Americans of the United States may well be greatly gratified that a decendent of their race has been elected President of Brazil. Elected by more than a half million majority, gives conclusive and convincing evidence of what South America thinks of manhood, regardless of the "Color line."
The completed returns from the national election held throughout the republic, confirms the first reports sent out within a few hours after the polls closed declaring the election of Pecamba, president. The reports, were credited but the size of his majority was not conceded by the opposition at that time; the authentic returns completely rout all doubt. Nilo Pecamba, Premier of Brazil was elected president of Brazil by a 590,000 majority. His opponent Louis Sancho, the conservative nominee was governor of the state of Mines Geraa.
Pecamba carried the city of Rio De Janerio, the conservative stronghold by a 60,000 plurality; Bahal, a city of 700,000 by a 10,000 majority. His greatest plurality was reached in the state of Rio Grand Du Sud known as German Brazil. He carried this city by a 170,000 plurality. The first returns showed Pecamba a winner. The Post Alegore Senital flashed his election two and a half hours after the polls closed. Out of a total registered vote of 600,000, the Socialist polled 135,000; the Socialist Democrat 84,000. The election was a complete victory for the Federalist party. It is said to be the most remarkable election since 1889 when Deodora Francesca was elected first president of Brazil, after Don Perdo II, the last emperor had abdicated, and a republic proclaimed.
Nilo Pecamba was born at Petropolis, Brazil, Apr. 7, 1868. His mother was a Brazilian Negro and his father an Italian. He entered public life in 1898, when he was elected Mayor of Nithony. He was elected to the Brazilian parliament in 1900 and in 1902 he was elected Governor of the State of Rio De Janerio. In 1904 he was elected to the Brazilian senate. In 1906 he was elected president of the Federalist ticket, by a majority of 200,000. He became Premier on February 23rd, 1917, and will be inaugurated on May 1, 1922.
FILIPINOS SATISFIED
WITH WOOD AS GOVERNOR
(Associated Negro Press)
San Francisco, Cal., Apr. 12.—The Filipinos have accepted Governor General Wood's leadership and are giving him such cheerful support that a "final and satisfactory" solution of the Phillipine problem is assured, according to B. Finley Johnson, senior associate justice of the Supreme Court of the Phillipine Islands, who is in San Francisco. Judge Johnson said that Gen. Wood had saved the islands $25,000.000 in government operation costs since he had been in office.

Criticism Aimed at Negro Film Industry Due to Inefficiency of Management, Experts Claim
The Recent Failure of Two Negro Banking Institutions in Baltimore, Supporting Negro Film Companies, Brings About Discussion in Financial Circles. By J. A. Jackson of the Billboard for last year in attempting to promote fifteen episode Negro serial picture
New York City, Apr. 12.—The recent failure of two Negro banking institutions in Baltimore, Md., and the fact that these institutions or their heads were financially interested in various Negro film propositions, has brought about the discussion in financial circles as to whether the Negro film industry is upon a sound basis sufficient to warrant the support of Negro bankers, and if so in just what form can a Negro banker justify his support to the Negro film industry.
It is a known fact that in Los Angeles and New York, also in Florida, leading white bankers have within the past year placed themselves on record as favorable to high-class film projects. In December a vice-chairman and director of the Irving National Bank of New York was appointed chairman of the finance committee of the Famous Players-Lasky Film Corporation. About the same time, John E. Barber of the First National Bank and Motley H. Flint of the L. A. Trust and Savings Bank, Los Angeles, organized a $1,000,000 film financing corporation.
In Baltimore it is stated from good authority that one of the officials of one of the defunct banks lost $15,000
Six Caught in Raid by Drug Officials
U. S. Narcotic Agents Break Up Drug-Smugglers Ring With Capture of Negroes.
Three Negroes and three white men were captured in a raid, by federal narcotic officers, in a flat at 196 East Seventh street, early Saturday, April 8.
The officials had been suspicious of a drug ring treminating in St. Paul and Minenapolis. The drugs it is believed, are smuggled through the Atlantic seaboard by sailors and then are brought West by messengers. It is believed that the drugs are brought from Germany and Italy because several of the packages bear Italian labels.
When the federal officials walked into rooms at 196 East Seventh St., James Saunders, the only occupant of the room started a fight with them. After a few minutes battle, Saunders was overpowered, and the agents began a search for drugs.
After searching for more than an hour, the drugs were found in the floor and hollow compartments in the walls. In addition to drugs, agents found an apothecary's scale and a large quantity of powder papers. The men arrested were, James Saunders, Harold Fields and Louis Mann, Negroes, and Mike LaCedro, Jim Capra and Ralph Searfo, white.
The dinner-conference held by the St. Paul branch of the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored people at the Pioneer Masonic Hall last Monday night was a very successful affair. Dr. I. L. Rypins made a fine speech. He pleaded for more solidarity among the colored people. Several other interesting speches were made during the evening.
Dr. Valdo Turner, chairman of the executive committee presided.

last year in attempting to promote a fifteen episode Negro serial picture. Another official of the other defunct bank was president of a Negro film proposition and was at the time of the banks failure about to invest in a film promotion proposition. In discussing this problem one of the best authorities in the country on the production of Negro photoplays has this to say: "The fact that the two defunct banks as well as other Negro banking institutions have had unfavorable connections in the motion picture and other Negro amusement propositions will not warrant a banking connection.
"Banking is a business requiring expert training in banking requirements. Producing motion pictures requires equally as expert training in its essentials. Therefore a banker attempting to produce motion pictures or a motion picture producer attempting to operate a bank, are each attempting to do something foreign to their training and experience. "The right co-operation along the lines each party is trained to manage will provide a working combination that will place the Negro on his feet in an industry that gives employment to 250,000 persons and represents an investment of $250,000,000.
Presbyterians To Equip New Playgrounds
At the semi-annual meetings, Thursday afternoon, April 6, of the St. Paul Presbytery, in Zion Presbyterian church, St. Anthony and Farrington avenues, plans for a real playground for colored children were indorsed. The playground will be on the block bounded by Western, St. Anthony and Virginia avenues and Rondo street.
The Welcome Hall committee has been the main supporters of the project. This committee consists of J. W. Gaver, G. B. Smith, J. C. Strand, Mrs. C. P. Noyes and Mrs. J. E. Rounds, E. B. Kirk of Farwell, Ozmun, Kirk & Company, and James Suydam of the Goodyear Rubber company are treasurers. Rev. G. W. Camp is secretary. The committee is raising money to improve the grounds and purchase playground equipment. They also plan to erect a fireproof building to serve as a community center for colored instead of the present Welcome Hall.
Mr. Suydam spoke before the Presbytery and explained the work of the committee. The project was started seven years ago and has received new life with the present canvass for funds. The Presbytery has pledged its active support.

Congo Conditions Told by Minister
Congo Conditions Told by Minister
Belgian State Counsellor says Europe is Responsible for Kongo Life.
(Associated Negro Press)
London, Eng., Apr. 12.—Strange superstitions, such as belief that the appearance of a baby's first teeth on the upper jaw was an ill omen to the community, and that it had, therefore, to be murdered, were described by Dr. M. Horn, counsellor of state for Belgium, in an address here on "Belgian Colonial Administration in the Kongo."
This practice as well as others, like mutilation and cannibalism is now punishable by law.
The law also interfered he said, with native matrimonial customs. While a man may acquire a wife, either by means of a dowry paid to her family, by inheritance, purchase, exchange or force of arms, no legal bond is deemed to exist between the alleged husband and the woman acquired without her consent.
Acquisition by means of a dowry is recognized in principle, but the second, third, etc. will be permitted to desert her husband, the state being prepared to refund the dowry if no other man has been the cause of her desertion. No compensation will be paid when the husband has been warned in due time as to the precarious nature of his rights in regard to "his new better fraction."
Dr. Horn said a large proportion of the Kongo population was pitifully underfed, and for this state of affairs European rule was partly responsible. Cannibalism has been suppressed.
HARVARD MAN SUCCEEDS
AS SCHOOL PRESIDENT
Jefferson City, Mo., Apr. 13. During the four years that Dr. Clement Richardson has been at the head of Lincoln University, the school has made progress; students have come from many states and there is not now room to accommodate all. Dr. Richardson is a graduate of Harvard University, a splendid orator, and a scholarly gentleman. Degrees are now offered which have never been offered before. Owing to the large building program, including dormitories, educational building, administration building, and many needed repairs, there will be no summer school. The teachers of the state have shown their confidence in Dr. Richardson's ability by electing him President of the Missouri State Teachers' Association.

GREAT EDUCATOR PAID TRIBUTE AT TUSKEGEE
GREAT EDUCATOR PAID TRIBUTE AT TUSKEGEE
Monument Unveiled at Tuskegee in Honor of Booker T. Washington.
THOUSANDS ATTEND MEMORIAL SERVICES
Prominent Citizens From All Parts of Country Join In Paying Tribute.
(Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Apr. 14.—The Booker T. Washington monument was unveiled April 5th. It was a notable occasion with thousands of white and colored people from all over America present to pay tribute to the life and memory of the great leader and to praise his achievement. The day had come dark with lowering clouds and damp with the downfall of a steady rain. But even the elements were considerate, for when the bugles sounded for the march to chapel, the sun broke out in gorgeous splendor while the 5000 visitors, teachers and students fell in behind the institute band. Once inside, the rain poured again, but later the sun struggled to the fore and when unveiling time came, shone clearly giving an aspect of refultent beauty to a scene radiant with spirit and redolent with stirring memories of a man whose life and work was incarnated in an occasion that is now history of the finer and deeper sort.
Many prominent American figures were present. Dr. Wallace G. Buttrick, President of the General Education Board was the principal Founder's Day speaker, these exercises being held in connection with the unveiling: Josephus Daniels, ex-secretary of the Navy and a distinguished product of the social impulses amid which Booker T. Washington had been born a slave, spoke for the South. Dr. George Cleveland Hall of Chicago, noted Negro surgeon and close associate of Dr. Washington represented the Nero; Emmett J. Scott, the trusted secretary and intimate friend of the great leader, presented the monument to the Trustees, Chairman of the Board, Wm. G. Wilcox of New York accepted in the name of Tuskegee Institute. The entire board of trustees including Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, presidents of numerous schools, white and colored;

CAMPAIGN FOR NEW MEMBERS STARTS MONDAY
St. Paul Branch of Advancement Association Seeks One Thousand Members.
HUNDRED SOLICITORS TO CANVASS ENTIRE CITY
Every District to be Solicited Carefully in Effort to Enroll Record Number.
Bright and early Monday morning nearly one hundred workers will start canvassing the city of St. Paul in an effort to enroll one thousand members before next Sunday evening in the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
At a meeting held last night at Little Pilgrim on-the-hill, W. Central and Grotto Streets, workers were given supplies and assigned districts which they are to cover. Every section of the city will be solicited thoroughly. Plans have been made to solicit every home, public institution and places where colored people may be found. Every colored man, woman and child in the city is asked to become a member of the association during the drive.
A membership to the association for one year costs only $1.00. Of this dollar 50 cents is remitted to the main office in New York while the other 50 cents goes into the treasury of the local branch. The fifty cents that goes to the main body is the "bit" that aids the association in carrying out its great program of constructive work. Such work as fighting for the Dyer Anti-lynching Bill, fighting against segregation, alding the afflicted such as the Tulsa sufferers, spreading propaganda and figthing legal battle in the courts of America in the interest of the Negro people, is the kind of work the association is doing.
Following the meeting last night, campaign workers were confident the goal of 1000 new members would be realized before next Sunday night when the drive ends with the lecture by Dr. Roman at the Peoples' Church, Pleasant and Chestnut Streets.
"I have notified all the colleges in the city in regard to the drive besides enrolling the aid of several prominent citizens in our drive," said Dr. V. D. Turner, chairman of the executive committee. "I am confident we can put it over successfully."
The drive this year for new members will be on a larger scale than attempted before but it is generally believed the public will rally to the cause by becoming members of the association.

TWO MEN JAILED IN
FIGHT OVER WOMAN
Last Tuesday morning, armed with a hatchet, a hammer and a pocketknife, as weapons, two men and a woman staged a three-cornered battle at 452 East Seventh street. The fight ended with the arrival of the police.
Olmar Zacker, Helen Peterson, both white, and Ed. Prior were the combatants. All were arrested on charges of assault with dangerous weapons.
Jealousy between the two men over the woman is believed to be the cause of it all.
"Let our unceasing, earnest prayer Be, too for light—for strength to bear
Our portion of the weight of care,
That crushes into dumb despair
One half the human race."

WE DO NOT NEED IT
A playground for Colored children. What! Yes, that is what the block bounded by Western, St. Anthony and Virginia avenues and Rondo St., according to the announcement is to be used for. A playground for Colored children in Saint Paul is absolutely unnecessary and uncalled for. Our intelligence fails to permit us to see any virtuous motive underlying the action of the Welcome Hall committee in this respect. The specification that the play ground is for Colored children greatly arouses our suspicion and criticism. In the first place, we do not need a playground especially for Colored children and in the second place, we wish to inform the promoters of such a project that the presentation of a playground, especially by private interests, to the Colored children of Saint Paul means the presentation of a circumstance every intelligent black man in this country is fighting against—discrimination.
We are here to oppose segregation and discrimination. We are here to brand some of the nickel-plated black men who labor without regard for the problems which confront our race but for personal glory. We are here to serve the best interest of the people we represent, therefore, we are here awaiting the Presbytery of Zion Fresbyterian Church to announce that the playground in question is for all children who wish to patronize it and not for the Colored children as has been announced or it remains for the Colored people of this city to refuse to accept this jim-crow gift. We do not need it.

The dates for the campaign were announced commissioner Wenzel more than two weeks.

"Cleanliness is next to Godliness." This week is clean-up week in Saint Paul. We must do our duty and help Saint Paul maintain her reputation as a clean city. The dates for the campaign were announced by Commissioner Wenzel more than two weeks ago. Ample preparations have been made by the Health Department to remove all rubbish, and we believe that the public has prepared to aid in making Saint Paul, the Clean City. Everyone must clean their yards and especially the alleys in which ashes and refuse have been thrown during the winter months. Health inspectors have been visiting different communities the past week and report that some alleys are almost impassable because of the rubbish. These must be cleaned during the clean-up-week. All those who fail to comply with these orders will be punished, according to statements issued by Mr Wenzel last week.
We hope that no one in Saint Paul will have to be punished because they are too lazy to clean up their own places. It is no trouble whatever and we trust that everyone will clean up their yards and alleys during the week of April 16-22.
The dinner-conference held last Monday night was indeed an interesting gathering and the discussion of the Race question was still more interesting. It is such discussions that will eventually lead to action and realization of the principles Colored people are everywhere striving for. Now that the situation has been aired, some definite program must be outlined and carried out.
CONTEMPORARIES
A concern of "expert" investigators of New York City was hired by a commission of Congress to investigate efficiency of post-office employees in certain cities. These investigators claim that they found that the white employees are of a higher competency than the colored employees.
Even if we do not question the truth of this statement we must in commonsense call attention to the utter folly of the CONCLUSION which this investigation claims to have arrived at: That since the average white employee is more competent than the average Negro employee, the post-office department should dismiss all Negro employed and hire only whites, as an "economy" measure. This conclusion overlooks the fact that the road to the highest efficiency of all, would be to dismiss both the incompetent whites and the incompetent blacks and retain the most competent of both races. For even a group of Statistical "experts" should not so far submerge commonsense in mere arithmetic as to forget that if a group of whites is on the whole more competent than a like group of blacks, this does not mean that every one of the whites is superior to every one of the blacks, or that everyone of the blacks is inferior to every one of the whites. If 100 white employees can do more postal service than 100 colored employees (a thing which is not by any means proven,) that would only mean that the white 100 has in it a greater number of efficient workers than the Negro 100, and it does not mean that the highest efficiency for the service would be reached by substituting the white 100 for the black 100, but by taking the most efficient of both groups and making up an efficient 100. For example, Mr. "Expert," if 60 of the 100 whites are competent while only 40 of the 100 blacks are competent, we should take the 60 whites and the 40 blacks, and drop the others. If we merely drop "black" for white, we are not dealing with the question of competency but with the bare, bald, ugle question of race and color, and we do more harm than we do good.
If "the average white man" is better prepared than the "average Negro," that is a mere mathematical idea, for there is no such thing in the world as "the average man." We cannot employ the average white man, and we cannot dismiss the average black man. If we dismiss black men wholesale, we dismiss many efficient men; and if we employ white men because they are white men, we employ many inefficient men. There is no "average man," except in the mind of the statistical expert. Each man is a thing by himself, complete and whole, when it comes to the practical business of carrying mail or cancelling stamps. If the statistical "expert" tells us that one and seven tenths man (1.7 man) has the influenza, we would be just as sensible in expecting to find this "one-and-seven-tenths-man" in a bed sick, as to expect to find the "average man" carrying mail.
Some men's intellectual machinery gets all out of order as soon as it hits the "color line." If we keep our poise, we will consider the post-office employees simply as a body of employees and will proceed to weed out the incompetent and retain the competent, of whatever race.
THE NEGRO AND THE NAVY
Representative Ansorge has appointed Enille Holley, a youth of New York, as principal for the United States Naval Academy examinations at Annapolis. In making the appointment Representative Ansorge pointed out that 500,000 Negroes served in the army and navy during the World War and that "as a matter of simple justice and in recognition of the valor and Americanism of the Colored boys in the war he has nominated one to the naval academy."
It would seem from the tone of a dispatch published by the New York Sun that this appointment will meet with much disfavor from Navy heads. It gives out the news of the appointment thus.
Holley has not yet passed the mental and physical examinations requisite to admission, and it may be that this will keep him from the appointment. Also a bill is pending to cut down materially the number of appointments to the academy, and this may also serve to keep him out.
But if he does get into the academy, there is certain to be discussion and feeling that may last throughout his four years at Annapolis, the extent of which will be determined by Holley's own actions.
Theappointment of Holley, who is 17 years old, was made by Representatives Martin C. Ansorge of New York, who pointed out that three Negroes had been graduated from West Point. Appointments of Negroes to West Point, however, are not as unusual as like appointments to Annapolis. Negro graduates of West Point may be assigned to Negro regiments in the army, but there are no stricly Negro units of the navy, and no matter where he was assigned, Holley would, after graduation, have to assume charge of white sailors.
Not only this, but if he was assigned to sea duty, he would have to consort and associate with white officers, as there is now no case on record in the United States where a ship has been put to set with a crew of Negroes. This complicates the situation exceedingly and makes it a matter of doubt whether Holley's appointment ever will be permitted to go through.
While naval officers do not question the high standing of the young Negro and do not doubt that he is qualified for appointment because of his athletic and mental attainments, they feel that in the interest of the morale of the navy, and for Holley's own good, the appointment ought to be withdrawn.
When argued from the fact that the stay of this boy at Annapolis, should he be fortunate enough to pass all entrance tests, would be decidedly unpleasant, one might agree that his appointment was unfortunate. But when considered from the angle of his being, by virtue of his citizenship and attainments, just as honestly deserving of it and as eligible as any other boy it cannot be so considered.
The bar exists. But the fact that it exists does not argue for its justice nor permanence nor immunity from attempts to prove its frailty and injustice.
The fact that prejudice has kept Negroes from honorable service in the Navy does not argue loudly for the absolute adherence to the principles of democracy as proclaimed by the government which the navy protects. But custom and prejudice have made it so. But this condition need not be allowed to maintain always. It may entail hardship and much suffering by some ones of us but to us it does not seem anything but patriotic to hope that the time may come when the services of Negroes in the navy of the U. S. may be as highly valued as they always have been in the army.—Dallas Express.

Dubois Gives New Hope for America
Editor of Crisis Believes That Publicity Will Help Negro Cause.
(Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., Apr. 13.—Dr. W. E.
B. Dubois, editor of the Crisis, in a western tour in behalf of the nation-wide membership drive of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has sounded a new note of hope for the people of America. Beginning the tour in Oberlin, Ohio, Dr. Dubois came west as far as Chicago, where for more than a week he filled engagements before a number of the leading organizations of this section, preaching the gospel of justice and opportunity.
The subject of color, it was made plain by Dr. Dubois, is becoming more serious daily throughout the world. The various view points, the difference of psychology, not only from the white and black view point, but from the view points of Colored people themselves throughout the world were explained.
It was shown that not only do American Negroes have a distinct viewpoint but that viewpoint is different in the South than in the North; it is different as between Haitians, Liberians, Belgian Congo blacks, French people of color and others.
It is manifestly evident that the National Association proposes to enter even more extensively than ever in pushing the power of publicity, and in extending co-operation for advancement along publicity lines. Particularly was the thought emphasized that the financial cost is not the thing to be considered, but the results that must count in the final analysis of racial progress. A fund of $500,000 used for national and international racial publicity, backed by thorough and sympathetic organization would undoubtedly turn the problem of races upside down.
GREAT LEADER PAID
(Continued from page 1)
men prominent in business, philanthropic, fraternal circles, representatives of the Negro and white press and a host of admirers from every section were in attendance.
Mrs. Washington was a central figure and a most gracious hostess. She is still active as Director of Girl's Industries and lives at "The Oaks," where she has kept Dr. Washington's study and room just as he left it.
Davidson Washington, her son now of Chicago, where he is making good as a representative of the school officiated at the unveiling.
Harding Sends Message.
President Harding sent a characteristic letter in the course of which he said, "I think there will be little divergence from the opinion that he was one of the most useful Americans of his time, and that the work which he inaugurated and so long directed is already demonstrating the wisdom of his attitude toward one of the great public questions of the nation. I have long felt that he was visioned the right way to deal with our national problems of races in a manner most likely to produce the best effects from the standpoint of the entire nation and of all the elements of its people. I am glad of the occasion thus to signify my very high esteem for a great leader."
Somebody Wuz Sayin' that—
"Foots" Ruffner is planning on driving a Nash car this summer. O no now!
The girls expecting to see Glen Hall at the Easter Ball will be disappointed on account of the snow Monday night.
Jim Howard is planning on entering the matrimonial ranks.
It's funny how a certain employee of the Royal Cafe, who became suddenly ill some time ago, is able to keep engagements with everybody else, save her former employer who she promised she would be back in an hour or two.
Percy Hughes is grinning all over since his new son was born.
Doughnuts must be rather an attraction in Chicago, to cause Sidney to forsake the Saintly City for a few days.
If a person is supposed to have 36 teeth in the mouth, there is one man in the old town who got cheated out of about 35 of the "enamel-diggers."

WRIGHT GETS DECISION
OVER MILL CITY BOXER
Kid Wright of Minneapolis took two of the three rounds fought with Bearcat Williams, also of that city, in a bout at the Gayetey theater Tuesday evening, April 4. Bearcat claims that he was ill, and only entered the ring to keep up his end of the card.
The first round was given to Bearcat, who tore in from the start, knowing that his physical condition would tell on him. Wright's elusiveness proved a little bit too much for Bearcat's anticipated "one round Knockout." The second and third round went to Wright, who came back with a rush and took both by a safe margin.
The card was supposed to be four rounds, but due to the physical condition of Bearcat, the fight was stopped by his manager after the third round.
Turner, manager of Bearcat, wishes to arrange a bout with Shelton of St. Paul that will be staged as soon as his fighter recovers. Bearcat states that he will fight any light-middleweight in the Twin Cities, barring Kid Ware.
UPTOWNS TO GIVE BIG
BALL AFTER EASTER
The one big event of the spring season is close at hand, and you must not forget the date, Wednesday, Apr. 19. The Uptown baseball club will endeavor to cast off the gloom that has prevailed over St. Paul during the Lenten season.

Come out to Union Hall on Wednesday evening and have a good time and hear some very interesting sport talks by, Dr. E. S. Weber, Sam Ransom, Dr. V. D. Turner, and W. T. Francis.

Matchmaker Frank Tourney of Madison Square Garden has arranged all the details with the principals concerned and, Jack Kearns, Dempsey's manager, has promised to sign the contract as soon as he returns from Europe.
CHURCH TO FEATURE
EASTER CANTATA
A special Easter Cantata featuring an augmented chorus of 30 voices is the program arranged at Pilgrim Baptist Church Easter Sunday evening at 8 P. M.
The cantata entitled: "My Redeemer Liveth" a beautifully arranged story of the crucifixion, resurrection and ascension, will feature some of the best local talent.
Mattie Jackson Rhodes, Hattie Hall, Eleanor Barksdale Smith, Dr. Earl S. Weber and John H. Hickman, Jr. are the soloists.
The cantata promises to be a great success due to the fact that the chorus has been in training for sometime. The program will begin promptly at 8 o'clock.
