AN ADVERTISEMENT IN THE TRIBUNE IS A DIRECT PERSONAL APPPEAL TO COLORED PEOPLE VOLUME II. NO. 38 Some Suggestions For Advancement of Lynching By Unbiased Writer (By Associated Negro Press) NEW YORK, Dec. 17.—What, in your opinion, should be the lowest age at which a Negro could be lynched without destroying our best traditions? Georgia, always in the van for innovation, has just completed, with its usual taste for finish, the dispatch of a nine-year-old. The boy was hauled through the streets by a rope and then carefully and chivalrously shot. Now this gives rise to several questions in the matter of lynching, and we feel that the art can take its place with other purely American customs, which, so we understand, is the envy of the whole European continent and has already taken its immortal niche in Madame Tussaud's Waxworks. Our third-degree system has been brought to a perfect state. We know that our police force can be depended upon to deliver the goods and our American pride is satisfied with that department of democracy. But in our lynchings we still seem to be groping around in haphazard fashion. One state, for instance, will take up the fashion of burning a Negro in oil, another will merely hang him and then, when the rope seems about ready to stifle his breath, shoot him in order to end his sufferings. This is a compromise, we feel, with the original spirit of our national conscience. Again, other parts of the republic have seen fit to declare holidays when the lynchings were larger than ordinary and women as well as men were scheduled to furnish the amusement. The latter plan, it seems to us, approaches nearer, in a spiritual way, to the best things in lynchings. But there is a drawback even to this, for in the states where it has been done, while thousands were given the chance to enjoy the spectacle, the children could not be present, as the cotton mills did not close down during the executions. However, that is a mere detail and no doubt the ingenuity of our public officials will rectify the oversight. But how shall we determine the minimum age? At nine, as Georgia has selected, the Negro child, it seems to us, offers little attraction as a lynchie. In the first place, a child at that age is too easily killed and the sport ends much too quickly. Why, dragging a mere child over cobblestones is apt to kill it before the tree or lampost is reached, and what then? Disappointment for all concerned and probably a long walk back to the house, with the dinner grown cold for practically nothing. We believe the proper way to lynch a child, assuming that the Georgian age is a good one at which to begin, would be to hand the youngster over to the white children for practice. Let them take the victim into a school yard, for example, where the see-saws and other toys are placed. The Colored boy might be placed under one end of the see-saw, which could then be raised and allowed to fall upon his head. After he comes back to consciousness, the act could be repeated until the white children tire of this, when, let us say, a good object lesson in biblical history be adopted to being the afternoon to a happy and satisfying end. With the proper instructors, our children would then grow into manhood and womanhood with an expert knowledge of the business and be capable of getting everything out of lynching that is possible. Not only the pure joy of the whole thing, but the unquestionably, with the assistance of some ex-Y. M. C. A. directors who lost their jobs on getting back from France, the commercial instinct would be fostered, and the children taught to treat a corpse in such a way that portions could be sold as souvenirs to those whose age does not permit them to attend the event. As a suggestion, a good ear or portions of the scalp, an arm or a foot might be syndicated to the Maxon Telegran, the Chattanooga Times, or the Atlanta Constitution for photographic reproduction and the children thus taught to earn their own pin money. We have no desire to be the supreme arbiter in this matter and our columns are open to suggestions for the advancement and improvement of lynching. But we do believe our citizens should be taught these matters in their youth as an educational fundamental. We offer this suggestion to the boards of education and to the Boy Scouts and Campfire Girls. The popular watering place at this stage of the game is the office cooler. Cause of Unrest Among Blacks Due to Changed Attitude Since Late War (By Associated Negro Press) NEW YORK, Dec. 17.—The finding of a recent investigation into the causes of race rioting in the United States, an investigation conducted by Glenn Frank, associate editor of the Century, showing how altered living conditions and the changed attitude of the Negroes themselves due to the war have enhanced the Negro problem, has just been published in the Century. Mr. Frank lists the new causes of race riots as follows: "The great influx of southern Negro labor into northern industrial centers; inadequate housing facilities for the new Negro population in the centers to which the migration has led, with the usual results of congestion in the breeding of those types and qualities that readily yield to the rioting impulse. The overflow of Negroes from crowded colored colonies into white residential blocks, with a resulting depreciation of property values as far as white occupancy is concerned, and the inevitable interruption. The exploitation of Negroes by real estate agents, both black and white, in the boosting of rentals and purchasing prices. The impressions left upon the minds of our returning negro soldiers by the measure of social equality which they enjoyed in France, and the inevitable contrast they are drawing between that attitude and the attitude they find upon their return. An intensified race pride and race consciousness on the part of the American Negro resulting from his having done his share as soldier and civilian freedom in the war. "A new sense of the possibility and freedom of movement which the Negro acquired from having learned that a southern Negro apparently can stand the northern climate and make a living in the new surroundings. A freshened resentment on the part of the Negro against his social and industrial limitations when he thinks of them in the light of the ideals of freedom, democracy, and equality for which he fought. "The stimulus to social equality aspirations growing out of the relations between blacks and white prostitutes who have moved into Negro districts following the breaking up of segregated vice districts in cities, as in Chicago, together with the resentment aroused among near-by whites. The irritation of many of our returned soldiers when they find their old jobs held by negroes, while they are having difficulty in getting back to work. A conflict of interests between non-union Negro labor and organized white labor. "A changed attitude on the part of the Negro that nourishes the idea of revolutionary methods for the attainment of his aspirations. an attitude fostered by one wing of Negro leadership, and cultivated by ultra-radicals who dream of a social revolution in the United States. "Is there a solution for the Negro problem? It is folly to hope for quick solutions." Mr. Frank opines. He goes on, however, to urge as remedial measures: (1) that the Negroes follow leaders like Booker T. Washington rather than the firebrand type of Negroes; (2) that industrial training be accorded to all Negroes, and fair treatment given to Negro workers when they enter into competition with whites; and (3) that joint councils of blacks and whites be organized to deal with interracial problems. FLAGSTAFF Mr. E. J. Boyer, one of our prominent citizens, left Saturday for New Mexico to join his wife. Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Garrison entertained last Sunday with a delightful dinner at her home. The guests were Mesdames Sallie Harper, Mary E. Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Watt and Reginald Jackson. Mrs. Mary E. Davis is convalescing from a recent attack of sickness. Another snowstorm swept over this city Sunday night and continued all day Monday. Mr. P. Taylor is spending the week in Flagstaff. The Willing Workers' club met last week with Mrs. T. W. Garrison and all members were present. After transacting such business as came before the body and enjoying the refreshments served by the hostess, the meeting adjourned to meet next week with Mrs. C. Cobb. Stage jokes are evidently made of kind words, for they never die. ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY SALARIES OF TEACH ERS SHOULD BE $1200 MINIMUM IS CLAIM SACRAMENTO, Dec. 17.—Minimum salaries of $1200 for school teachers of California will be the slogan of Will C. Wood, state superintendent, during the next session of the legislature. Wood declares that the present average is $1000 and that it is not sufficient. His idea is that state and county appropriations should be $600 each for each teacher. At present the countries contribute $550 and the state $450 for each teacher. Records of some 20,000 school teachers of California, showing their age and teaching experience, have been compiled under the new law governing the state teachers' retirement salary fund. A. C. Olney, state commissioner of secondary education, will ask the state board of education to bar from the schools publications of a New York book concern which, he says, has departed from the scheduled price list and is profiteering. The action was decided upon following receipt of complaints from high schools throughout this state. BISBEE The Pleasant Hour club met last Wednesday with Mrs. Charles Worsham. After a busy period of sewing, crocheting and embroidering, they enjoyed a delightful repast, which consisted of sandwiches, fruit salad, cheese with crackers, cake and punch. Three visitors were present. Next meeting will be with Mrs. White. Mrs. E. B. Haynes returned last week from a pleasant trip to San Antonio, Texas, and Los Angeles, Cal. Mrs. L. Victor will leave for a brief visit with friends and relatives in El Paso, Texas. Rev. Edward Jones of Douglas was in the city last Sunday and held services at St. Paul Baptist church. Mrs. White has returned from a pleasant visit to San Antonio, Texas. Mr. R. J. Walker has recovered from the effects of a severe cold which kept him indoors last week. GLOBE--MIAMI Mrs. Bedford Taylor received a message stating that her aunt, Mrs. Lou Bolden, was seriously ill. Mrs. Taylor will leave shortly to be at the bedside of her sick relative. The Eastern Star Chapter is progressing nicely. We have just initiated three new members and have two more who will be initiated soon. Mrs. C. F. aWtkins left this week for El Paso, Texas. Members and friends of the Baptist church during the absence of their pastor, Rev. Wm. Young, who is away on a visit. We are preparing for old Santa Claus and hope to give him a nice time. DON'T BE A "GOOF!" A Chicago doctor, on his way to visit a patient the other day, was splashed with mud by a passing truck. He wiped the mire away with his handkerchief, which was thus removed from active service, and entered a furnishings store to buy a new one. He had plenty of handsome and serviceable handkerchiefs at home. What he wanted was a clean handkerchief," he said to the clerk. "He are some very nice hankerchiefs of a good quality," said the clerk, opening a box. "Better give me a half-dozen," decided the doctor, not asking the price. The handkerchiefs were wrapped up and then he asked: "How much?" "Eighteen dollars," said the clerk. "I was game," said the doctor, telling of the experience afterward. "I paid it." He was not game. He was a goof. He did not have the nerve to make that clerk unwrap the handkerchiefs and give him one for 50 cents, which was what he really wanted. He was afraid the clerk would think him cheap. When you let someone tell you what you shall buy and how much you shall pay for it, you are giving the strongest kind of aid to the profiteers. So long as people buy regardless of price and regardless of actual needs, the profiteers will prosper. TRIBUNE PHOENIX, ARIZONA, DECEMBER 20, 1919 (By Associated Negro Press) HOBOKEN, N. J., Dec. 17.—As part of its work, the section on music of the department of religious education of the Young Women's Christian association is compiling a book of Negro melodies suitable for girls' voices. This book will also contain some hymns which have proved themselves to be universal favorites among school girls. Stories of the origin and the interpretation of the Negro melodies will also be included, that the girls who sing them may fully appreciate their charm. The reason for compiling this book is that such songs are prepared, as a rule, for men's voices, the range of notes being difficult for the voices of growing girls. Music is a new venture in the Y. W. C. A. bureau of religious education, and is already proving itself of value in furthering the purpose of the bureau which, to understand the thought and life of women and girls in this and other lands; to serve as a resource on materials and methods of religious education; to lead the association movement to find its place in the nation-wide task of bringing the message and program of Christ to bear on every young woman; to become a permeating force for moral and spiritual reality throughout all phases of Y. W. C. A. life at home and abroad, according to Miss Ethel Cutler, head of the bureau. MESA Mr. Carter is residing on Palmer avenue with Rev. Robinson. Members of the A. M. E. Bethel church gave a tacky party Saturday evening and all who attended had an enjoyable time. Many Phoenicians were among those present. A rally was given last Sunday by the A. M. E. church. Rev. Robinson preached for them. YUMA--SOMERTON Mrs. Turner of Los Angeles is the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Hogan. Mr. and Mrs. Hogan are looking forward to a visit from their son and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Dillard Hogan, of Oakland, Cal., who are expected to arrive in a few days to spend the holidays with their parents. Mr. Charles Baugh has opened an auto repair shop and is catering to the general trade. The ladies of the Eastern Star gave a chicken dinner last week and realied a neat little sum. Many turned out and had dinner with them. Misscs Cleo and Willie Wilson have been on the sick list the past week but are improved. A HOT ONE nounceme "It has the allies same car in death "It has been definitely decided that the allies who fell together for the same cause should remain together in death until circumstances permit of the returning of the bodies to the families for whom they sacrificed themselves."

Horne and in the midst of a setting of beautiful flowers, Mrs. Horne of Flagstaff was hostess to a group of Winslow folk at a sumputusos Thanksgiving dinner. She was assisted by her mother, Mrs. Thornton. After dinner, the guests were entertained with music, cards and dancing. Mrs. J. N. Burkhardt is reported on the sick list. Mr. C. Boatwright has been on the sick list, but is improved. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Simpson have returned from a trip through the east. A HOT ONE NEW YORK—As a truck driver, Albert Johnson is a distinct success. As a financier he became convinced today there is something to be desired. *Johnson saw a fine bright 50-cent piece lying on the pavement at Broadway and 91st street. He halted his truck and gathered in the find. A traffic cop promptly gathered the driver in, coin and all, and halted him before Magistrate House for obstructing traffic when he halted his truck. "Two dollars fine," said the judge. "That's a hot one, judge. "It costs me $2 to find half a dollar. Next time I'll let someone else find it." Women think no more of stealing hatpins than men do of stealing umbrellas. Y. M. G. A. MEMBERS LEARNING TO SING SOUTHERN SONGS Mrs. John Gorden is on the sick list. The mother of Mr. A. C. Gardner is very ill at her home on Fifteenth street. DEAD TO BE LEFT IN FRANCE PARIS.—The 65,000 American dead in France must be left in the graves they now occupy until the French are ready to exhume their own dead, which it is hoped will be before January 1, 1922. The foreign office has promised to consider the latest request of the American government for the return of its fallen soldiers, but later the following official announcement was made: The proposed law forbidding the exhumation of soldier dead for three years did not pass at the last session of the chamber of deputies, but the foreign office expects that it will be adopted soon. This bill specifies a delay in exhumation of three years from the promulgation of the law, but it is expected that this period will be shortened. At the foreign office it is said to be probable that the exhumation will commence considerably before January, 1922. No. Rafalo, a man should hide nothing from his wife—even if it were possible. THE PRESIDENT — THE CONGRESS — THE HOUR OF TRIAL (By Associated Negro Press) The annual message of the President of the United States is before the Congress. Again—as again and again—the nothingness of our particular group is emphasized. The year has been filled with the most dangerous and delicate happenings, the bitterest of feeling and the most atrocious acts in the history of the nation, so far as we 15,000,000 are concerned; and yet it has not been regarded sufficient for the President to make even a direct veiled allusion to the need of immediate co-operative adjustment. Our position is awkward and humiliating, but it is insistent and just. Presidents and Congresses, year after year, have ignored, side-tracked and "passed the buck" in matters affecting our constitutional rights. Arthur Brisbane, noted philosopher and journalist, in a recent "Today" expression stated that the cause of unrest is due to the fact that the war has taught the people to THINK; that in the last five years there has been more REAL THINKING than in the twenty-five previous years. THAT APPLIES VERY PARTICULARLY TO OUR GROUP. WE ARE NOW A THINKING PEOPLE AND WE KNOW THAT WE KNOW. WE HAVE SPENT A HALF CENTURY "PRAYING" AND "REQUESTING" AND HAVE SLIPPED BACKWARD IN THE MARCH OF PROGRESS. TODAY WE ARE ASSUMING THE PREROGATIVES OF FULL-FLEDGED MANHOOD AND WE ARE "DEMANDING" AND "ACTING." THE RESULTS. EVEN IN SO SHORT A TIME, ARE GRATIFYING. And now we are demanding a hearing of our case and cause before the bar of justice and public opinion; before the Congress, and in the sight of God. The tide of Justice is sweeping the earth and we cannot longer be ignored, even if we were willing longer to "pussyfoot." and merely whine. We are with the tide, but it is beyond our control. Public opinion is crystalizing in our behalf. This is being reflected in the white pinit and press; in the private conversations and in the commercial and industrial agencies for a square deal. Many of these, either through shame or an awakening conscience, have taken high ground in recent months, which is no more nor less than the true spirit of America speaking. To this liberated group we must righteously and militantly join our forces. Such an alliance is impregnable and indomitable. The conclusion of the President's message is mighty in language and the choice of words. Let us hope that in some corner of his cultured mind he, also, thought of us. But if he did not, it must here and now be understood that we are thinking for ourselves, and that by no hook or crook, or devious construction, do we propose to be counted out of the equation when he says: "In America there is but one way by which great reforms can be accomplished and the relief sought by classes obtained, and that is through the orderly processes of representative government. Those who would propose any other method of reform are enemies of this country. America will not be daunted by threats nor lose her composure or calmness in these distressing times. We can afford in the midst of this day of passion and unrest to be self-contained and sure. The instrument of all reform to all classes and conditions of men. Men have but to follow this road to realize the full fruition of their objects and purposes. Let those beware who would take the shorter road of disorder and revolution. "The right road is the road of justice and orderly process." That goes for us in all of our group perplexities and bewildering troubles. It goes for disfranchisement, lynchings and "jim crows;" it goes for riots and mobs and cold-blooded murder; it goes for economic holdbacks in industrial opportunities and educational privileges; it goes for anarchy and bolshevism and all un- and anti-American jems, to which it has been recently claimed our publications, as a whole, and our people, have subscribed their influence. THIS IS NOT TRUE. OUR CRY, OUR ETERNAL CRY. IS FOR JUSTICE. JUSTICE. JUSTICE. WE MUST HAVE JUSTICE. NO TRUE AMERICAN CAN EXPECT US TO DESIRE ANYTHING LESS. AND 5 CENTS A COPY: $2.50 a YEAR PAIR OF GOOD MULES CAUSE TROUBLE FOR OWNER (Special to the Tribune) BALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 17.—Word has reached this city of the action of a mob in Texas which urged a colored minister to sell a pair of mules owned by him, but which he refused to sell because they were not only the best mules in the neighborhood, but he needed them in his work. The mob then burned his barn and house and drove his family out of the county. The minister took them into Oklahoma, where in a short time he was visited by a Ku-Klux crowd at night and told that a check had been forged in his name in the local bank by one of the local young white men, but that he would do well not to say anything about it. He was obliged to stand the loss of the money. The man had a son in the army in France fighting, perhaps in the place of the very white men who were in the mob. and for the country which confessed its laws powerless to help him and his kind. Today here has come the story of a dastardly outrage in Caldwell, Ga., where a mob cut out the tongue and otherwise maimed a colored planter named Cooper, who refused to sell his cotton to them at a lower price than that of the general market. Not satisfied with this crime, they placed the body in the neighboring church, of which he was an official, and burned the church and the body. Things did not rest here, but the mob searched out a neighboring colored planter, J. A. Steele, who was a friend and sympathizer with the victim, and ordered him to leave the neighborhood in twenty-four hours. This man passed through Washington last Monday morning with his five small children and wife, having left behind him his sixty acres of land and his home and property in general. RAY On December 7th the Cactus club was entertained by Mrs. Pat Rivers at the residence of Mrs. Frank Smith. Pimiento sandwiches, chicken salad, cake and coffee were served by the hostess and enjoyed by all present. On the evening of December 6th, Mr. Jas. Coleman, assisted by Mrs. Pearl Burney and Mrs. Archie Lewis, gave a delightful party at Smith's hall in honor of Miss Emily Crump of Phoenix, who was here visiting her father and sister. All Sunny Side turned out to greet this popular young lady from the state capital. They sang, played games and danced until the "wee sma'" hours and on departing expressed their delight for having been so royally entertained. Messrs. Pat Rivers and J. A. Lewis motored to Phoenix last Sunday. Mr. Anthony Smith of Hercules Hill was a visitor to the capital city last week. Rev. W. J. Conquest, pastor of the A. M. E. Zion church in Phoenix, will be in Ray the third Sunday in January and will conduct meetings at the school house for one week. Everyone invited to come and hear him. On the evening of December 14th, the Cactus club met and was entertained by Mrs. J. A. Lewis at her beautiful home in Sunny Side. Lobster salad, chicken sandwiches, cake and coffee were served and all present spent an enjoyable evening. ALBION, N. Y. (By Charlotte Brown) The people of Albion had a real Thanksgiving. It began snowing two weeks before Thanksgiving, and on Thanksgiving day skating and sleigh rides were the order of the day. Mrs. Kate Peterson is on the sick list this week. Members of the American Legion will meet Thursday evening at the hall and enjoy a banquet and smoker. Mrs. C. G. Hill was hostess at a delightful dinner on Thanksgiving day. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Ted Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. Althua Mason, Mrs. Charlotte Brown, Mr. and Mrs. Hill. Thursday afternoon Mrs. A. R. Sprague entertained thirteen ladies of the Albion Card club. Dainty refreshments were served by the hostess. Mr. Angelo Deomicle made a brief visit to Medina.

Coleman have taken apartments in the Green Flats at 23 North 10th street. Rev. C. A. Gilmore, pastor of the Second Baptist church, corner Fifth and Jefferson streets, is growing in popularity with the members of his congregation and the public in general. Sunday night this church, which has the largest seating capacity of any of the colored churches in the city, was filled to overflowing, and Dr. Gilmore preached a wonderful sermon which was enjoyed by all. People are attending church now as never before in the history of Phoenix and some provision must be made to accommodate them. Every colored church in the city is free from debt and it is up to them to go in debt and build bigger and better churches. Mr. F. J. Foster of 1618 East Jefferson street, a recent arrival in the city, has opened a real estate and employment office at 419 East Washington street. He is in position to find work for any member of the race who wants employment, or he will sell, rent or lease you a home, office or farm. His phone number is 1242. Write it down. Rev. W. J. Conquest, pastor of the A. M. E. Zion church at 822 South Montezuma street, preached Sunday afternoon, 3 o'clock, to a fair-sized audience, and at 8 p. m. nearly every seat in the little church was filled with people who came to hear him. Although this church is situated on the south side residence district, Rev. Conquest is succeeding in drawing many out to hear him. He is a logical, forceful speaker and his sermons are quite interesting. Take Due and Timely Notice If you see his advertisement in the Tribune, you may feel safe to patronize him, for no one advertises in a colored paper except those who want the patronage of colored people. Be governed accordingly. S. L. A. C. Meeting Ladies of the Self-Improvement Art club met this week with Mrs. Luther Parker at the residence of Mrs. Geo. W. Caldwell and spent a pleasant hour in conversation and artcraft. Mrs. Mattie Berry of La Junta, Colo., was a welcome visitor and addressed the ladies on club work and social service. Dainty refreshments were served and enjoyed by all, after which the meeting adjourned to meet next week with Miss Jessie Bruen at 233 East Jefferson street. A Brand-New Girl Arrives Born December 16 to Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Green of 426 East Madison street, a bouncing baby girl. Mother and daughter are doing fine. Ladies' Aid Society The Ladies' Aid society of the A. M. F. church met last week with Mrs. R. F. Rodgers, 1218 East Washington street, and spent a pleasant social hour. Dainty refreshments were served by the hostess, after which the meeting adjourned to meet this week with Mrs. Charles Ward, 128 South Fifth street. Accidentally Hurt Mr. Eddie Kidd of 1110 East Monroe is nursing several bruised fingers caused by an accident which occurred this week. He carries no insurance. Too bad. Church Too Small That the A. M. E. church, corner Second and Jefferson streets, is too small to accommodate the congregation was clearly shown at the services Sunday night. Anticipating a crowd similar to the one which came the Sunday night previous, extra seats had been provided. Before the pastor began his sermon, every seat was filled and the windows served as news for men. Several came to the door, looked in, saw there was no are Looking HERE IT andies and gentlemen: give you a partial list as this it we expect many more users we will find quite a variety to edes Little red Ex Baby Walker s Blue Bird Co (This is so Little blue Express Wagon es will make valuable present right, don't forget to come to ARD FURNIT 237 W.

You read their advertisements in various publications and often wondered if their appeal to the public included you. Sometimes it did and sometimes it did not. It was necessary then for you to visit an establishment and note the treatment accorded before you felt welcome. If you were received courteously, sometimes there lingered in your mind a doubt as to whether it was real or a mere sham. You had no way to distinguish the fake courtesy from the real, for there was no messenger which brought an appeal directly to you from these merchants. Since the coming of the Tribune, all things have changed, and no longer is there room for doubt. You regard the Tribune as your representative and as such you expect, and you are entitled to expect, that all messages to you be sent through your representative—The Tribune. No merchant who buys advertising space in any other publication can assume a half-way position, as is resorted to by some, and expect to receive the patronage of colored people. Certainly, colored people read other papers, as they must, to keep informed on all the important topics of the day; still it is not to be implied that a message to the public through these publications will have the same effect on colored people as will one addressed directly to them through their own medium. Christ said: "He that is not for me is against me", and the same statement is applicable in this case. The merchant who wants your trade advertises in your paper. If he refuses to advertise in your paper, is it not reasonable to presume that he is not particular about your trade? Regardless of the treatment accorded members of the race by firms and individuals not represented in the advertising columns of the Tribune, we offer by way of a suggestion, that you "right-about face", throw your financial support to Tribune advertisers and watch how quickly we will establish a down-town BAYLESS BARGAINS BAYLESS BARGAINS Only 5 more shopping days before Christmas.

Phoenix and happiness and succulent, moral and i "OUR ADVERTISING RATES" THE ADVANCING CITY Phoenix is growing by leaps and bounds and the colored population is keeping pace with this growth. Every day brings two or more colored families into the city. These people are of the right kind, as they are buying homes and engaging in gainful occupations. Oklahoma and Texas are furnishing the majority of these people with a scattering from Kansas, Missouri and other states. Several business men are in this group and Phoenix may well look forward to the day when a number of creditable business enterprises will be established, owned and operated by members of the race. One year ago the colored population numbered 2,000 inhabitants, and today there are not less than 2,500 colored people in this valley. Many came from farm sections and are engaging in that line of work here. We doff our hat to the farmer, for he is the most independent man in America today. It used to be that the farmer would come to town with his produce and go from one store to another asking what price was paid for this product and for that one, now he comes to town with a fixed price on his products, and the merchant must pay him his price or he will not part with his goods. We are born farmers, our inclination to the contrary notwithstanding, and with a little training in the art of irrigation, our people will soon revolutionize farming in the Salt River Valley. The Mighty Power of the VESTA PUTS THE START IN YOUR STARTER Never before in the history of this country have such wonderful opportunities been presented the successful colored farmer as that now offered by this section.

Gardner & Co., whose palatial home is at the corner of Fifth avenue and Washington, have had a remarkable sale during 1919 on the Chandler Six automobile. This popular fine car is making for itself more friends daily, and Sales Manager S. L. Knox of the Gardner & Co. states that there is no other automobile priced within $500 of the Chandler that compares with it as a fine car. The Chandler company manufactures in Cleveland besides the closed cars, the standard open models, which almost every one in the valley knows by sight: The Dispatch, which seats four passengers; the Chummy roadster for the business man or traveling man, and the standard family car, the big 7-passenger. Mr. Knox stated that immediate deliveries can now be had on the entire line.
