"WE ORIGINATE --- OTHERS IMITATE" Phoenix Tribune key to Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 10,000 Homes ANNUAL ADDRESS OF MRS. LYNN R. CARTER PRES. A. F. C. W. C. Following is the annual address of the president, Mrs. Lynn Ross Carter, delivered at the sixth annual session of the Arizona Federation of Colored Women's Clubs held in Phoenix, May 25, at the C. M. E. church. Mrs. Carter spoke in part as follows: "Co-workers and friends of the Arizona Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. Again I am before you to deliver my third annual message. For the third time I am ready to tender the gavel, the emblem of authority, which has rested in my charge. Looking backward over our year's work we are confident, that we will reach the goal for which we are striving. "Handicapped for lack of funds to spread the club movement through the state we are blessed with the help of the daily and weekly press to help pave the way for our future work. To encourage the organization of clubs where such organizations do not exist, and to unite the clubs of the state has been my ambition, for in unity there is strength. "Would to God that I could imprint upon the minds of our women the necessity of co-operation. We can see so much that could be done by cooperation that we are amazed that our women do not take a greater interest. If they would but know that we are not striving for ourselves alone, but are working for the uplift of our race. 'Lifting as we climb', they would surely give a few hours of each week for the good of our women and children. "One of our objects is to pledge to the cause of education, to bring the parents and educators into closer relationship, as on one knows the temperment of the child better than its parents. To get better accommodations and facilities for our children, to impart into their developing minds the need of the right kind of education, not only what is gleaned from the text books, but to live clean, moral lives that their bodies may be fit, let them not live in ignorance of things that should be known, so that the future generations of our race may be benefited from our teachings. Paul says: Shun all immorality. Every other sin that men commit is some (continued on page 3) (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, June 2.—A verdict awarding Ada Dozier, 3515 Federal street, a colored woman, damages of $2,300 against the city of Chicago, was returned by a jury of white men in Superior court before Judge Samuel Stugh, last Friday. This was the first of 38 damage cases against the city originating in the race riots of July, 1919, to be tried. Of the veniremen selected all were white except Ellis Thompson of 6220 South Morgan street, who was rejected by assistant state's attorney representing the city. It was brought out of the trial that during the rioting a committee had waited on Mayor Thompson and been assured of ample police protection. The following day thousands of hand bills were circulated on the south side by Aldreman R. R. Jackson of the second ward. They told the colored people who had been staying in their homes, fearing to go to work, that the Mayor guaranteed ample police protection. ```markdown ``` William Henry Dozier, husband of Mrs. Ada Dozier, was killed by a mob at the entrance to the stockyards the following day. Attorney A. L. Williams, representing Mrs. Dozier, read the hand bills into the erecord, alleging they had been the indirect cause of Dozier's death. One of them read: "All stockyards workers may return to their work without fear of molestation or bodily harm. Mayor Thompson guarantees that all races will receive a square deal. He has made safe, by ample police protection, 35th and 47th streets to Halstead street and Halstead street to the stockyards." Commencement exercises for the colored pupils of the Union high school were held Monday night at the Auditorium, followed by a banquet Tuesday evening at the A. M. E. church. About 500 parents and friends were present at the commencement exercises, together with several members of the board of trustees. After the invocation by Rev. E. D. Green, pastor of the Second Baptist church and a song by the school, James Rosser came forward and made the saiutatory address. He chose for his subject, Will Power, and after bidding a cordial welcome, proceeded to tell the audience in an intelligent and interesting way, what could be accomplished by an indomitable will. His address showed thorough training and a mastery of speech seldom witnessed on such occasions. A cornet and piano duet by D. N. Edmonds and Cora Smith brought forth much applause, as also did a vocal solo by Blanche Hester. Following these numbers, Benton James delivered an address on Education and Service. His was a gem of rhetoric, filled with sound advice and eloquently delivered. Andrew Wallace delighted the audience with a piano solo as also did Pauline Howard. Following the rendition of these musical numbers, Helen Peverson, valedictorian of the class of 1921, came forward and made the farewell address. Her subject was: "Onward," and in a manner so forceful and eloquent that mere words cannot describe, urged her classmates onward and upward into the realm of intellectual excellence. A duet by Helen Brown and Cora Smith brought forth thunderous applause, after which Rev. T. J. Sanfor, pastor of the A. M. E church was introduced by Mrs. C. B. Caldwell and delivered the annual address. He selected for his subject; "The Advantages of Difficulties," and in his own inimitable way made an address that will go down in the history of Phoenix as one of the best ever delivered from the rostrum of the high school auditorium. After another musical number by Cora Smith, Prof. D. F. Jantzen, principal of the Phoenix Union High School, introduced the Hon. B. F. McFall, president of board of trustees, who after a few encouraging remarks presented the diplomas to the graduates. A fitting climax to the commencement exercises was the banquet given the following Tuesday evening at the A. M. E. church. Seated at the banquet table were several members of the school board with their wives, pupils of the high school, their parents, and the two high school teachers and a number of special guests. First toast of the evening was made by Benton James of the Class of 1921 to the Juniors and an able response was made by Earle Johnson, member of the junior class. Annie Vivian Strawhorn of the Alumni made a toast to the class of 1921 and Helen Peterson responded graciously. Mrs. Allen Smith spoke a few encouraging words to the young people as also did A. R. Smith, editor of the Tribune. Splendid toasts were made by Mr. Stewart of the school board, Mr. A. A. Betts, Hon. B. F. McFall, and Prof. Jantzen. Mrs. Caldwell made a few remarks and then called on the Rev. T. J. Sanford to respond to the toasts made by members of the school board. Dr. Sanford, in language that was plain, yet forceful and eloquent, told the members of the school board how proud the colored people of Phoenix are to have men of their calibre on the high school board and of the high hopes and ambition they cause to rise in the breasts of our young fokk because of their manly stand. Altogether the closing exercise of the Phoenix Union high school this year were the best ever held and the future looks brighter. To Long Beach, Cal. Mrs. Annie Clemens of 328 East Willetta street, left this week for Long Beach, Cal., where she will spend the summer.

SPLENDID ADDRESS MADE BY COLORED GIRL TO CLUB WOMEN SPLENDID ADDRESS MADE BY COLORED GIRL TO CLUB WOMEN Miss Versie Mickens Following is an address delivered by Miss Versie Mickens at the Sixth Annual meeting of the Arizona Federation of Colored women's clubs, held May 25, at Lucy Phillips chapel C. M. E. church, Phoenix, Arizona. Miss Mickens chose for her subject: "The Areican Negro and His Possibilities," and spoke in part as follows: "Since time began, history has shown the rise, decline and fall of Empire, Nations, Races and fall of uals. It is but fair to say that the fate of the Negro has been cast along these lines that were as fixed as the stars in their courses. "There have been exceptions to the law of civil and political change. We have read with joy the triumph of the black man of ancient times, his power in battle, his eminence in letters, his skill in science, his genius as an agriculturist, his patience as a herdman. In great cycles of changes, it stands to reason that the wheel of civil and political fortune will again revolve in the Negro's favor. "Tis not much that the American Negro asks in this racial warfare; his aid has always been scant and rare. He has been thrown on his own resources, buffeted about until he has become hidebound, as it were, to those circumstances which have been so hurful to the progress of other nations. "Slavery, while a curse, has been a redeeming institution to the American Negro. It was that purgatorial step between Africa, slavery and American wealth. "No man can reach the elevated plane of good character and worth who drags behind him a great load of little and mean dislikes for his fellowman. The possibilities of higher professional standing of colored men and women depend upon the unity and determination of colored people to push their professional and business men to the front. I appeal to you as a race to cultivate unity and protect and defend each other's interest. Stand up and cultivate race pride, not race prejudice. "Let the elevation of one be the joy of the other, instead of pulling down those who are trying to elevate themselves and the race. The possibilities of colored professional men will be great to the extent that the colored people will allow, their greatness. Their destiny is with the colored race. "This world is not a place of peace and unmixed happiness. There has always been a struggle of individuals and races for existence and mastery. "It is beginning to dawn on the Negroes generally, that if they would be saved they must save themselves. "The Booker T. Washington theory of education has come to stay. Not because rich men are sustaining his school, but because of the fact that Tuskegee, the institution founded by the immortal Washington, meets the requirements, the demands of the day." "The question is often asked, can NEGRO'S BEST FRIEND IS SOUTHERN WHITE SAY KLU KLUX KLAN NEGRO'S BEST FRIEND IS SOUTHERN WHITE SAY KLU KLUX KLAN (By The Associated Negro Press) Raleigh, N. C., June 2.—J. J. Nolan one of the lecturers of the Ku Klux Klan in a recent speech, said: "The best friend in the world to the Negro is the southern white man. I urge them not to heed the advice of those who would lead them astray after political gods. I have friendship for the Negro race, but this is a white man's government and must remain so." He severely rapped the association for the Advancement of the Colored People and saw in its propaganda in the interest of the colored races of the world, a serious menace to white supremacy. Mr. A. G. Shepperson left this week on a brief business trip into the northwest. To Los Angeles Mrs. Minnie Dixon and her sister, Mrs. R. J. Murray who has been with her since she underwent an operation a few weeks ago at a local hospital, left this week for Los Angeles. En Route to Ajo Rev. Edward Jones of Douglas, who the past three weeks has been con- ducting a revival in the Yuma-Som- erton district, passed through the city Sunday en route to Ajo, Arizona, where is scheduled to speak next Sunday. the Negroes work out their own sal- vation Will they do it. The an- swer is: They have it to do or reap the very bitter consequences. The white man gives no quarter nor takes any; nothing but sheer force. It means that the Negroes must hustle and rustle, create avenues, open new vistas, announces new projects and thus avoid alms-seeking and the poor- house in the end The whites are not on trial, it is the Negroes. They have it in their power to hasten or prolong the day. What will they do with it? Our lives are measured by that which we are and that which we do. The two elements most essential to a successful life, are, character and achievement. Character is the excellence of spirit. It consists not in external deeds, but in the thought, feeling and purpose enshrined in our being. In the sight of God and in the eyes of our own spirit, it depends not so much upon the words we speak or the things we do, but the thoughts we think or the feelings we cherish or the purity, power, integrity of our spiritual nature. The first and best object of life is character. What we do may command the admiration of mankind, but to be loyal is better than to do. So you can see that it is better to be loyal within than to make a display from the outside. "If our race expects to meet the possibilities, we must learn what it takes to make true characters.

Kearns said that if the champion eliminates Georges Carpentier on July 2, all barriers will be let down. The next opponent of Dempsey after Carpentier has been conquered will be the man whose services can guarantee a purse worthy of consideration by the heavy-weight champion of the world." Kearns made this announcement when asked whether Kid Norfolk had refused advances to come here as sparring partner. Kearns said that all reports that he had made "special rates" to Norfolk are unfounded. Norfolk, would be welcome, no doubt, but as far as going to the point of guaranteeing a meeting with the colored heavy-weight, Kearns would make no promises. If the American public demands that he meet Kid Norfolk, or any other Negro, and the promoter who will guarantee the sum necessary to promote such a match, he will be ready in behalf of Dempsey to eliminate the color line. "He has the ambition to be pronounced the greatest heavy-weight of all time. I believe that consideration is coming to him. I think that on July 2 he will make that verdict unanimous." Off to California Mrs. Cora M. Jones, teacher at the Sherman school, 9th avenue and Sherman street, left this week for Los Angeles where she will spend the summer with her mother. To Des Moines Iowa Mrs. Sadie Bobo, elevator operator at the National Bank of Arizona building left this week for Des Moines, Iowa, with a health seeker, Mr. H. Brown, who she will place in the hands of relatives and friends. Mrs. Bobo will visit her relatives in Kansas before returning to Phoenix. She expects to be absent several weeks.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING TO-MORROW "Tomorrow," said the languid man, "I'll have my Time insured, I guess; I know it is the safest plan to save my children from distress." And when the morrow came around, they placed him gently in a box; at break of morning he was found as dead as Julius Caesar's ox. His widow now is scrubbing floors, and washing shirts and splitting wood, and doing fifty other chores that she may rear his wailing brood. "Tomorrow," said the careless jay, "I'll take an hour, and make my will; and then if I should pass away, the wife and kids will know no ill." Tomorrow came, serene and nice, the weather mild, with signs of rain; the careless jay was placed on tee, embalming fluid in his brain. Alas, alas, poor careless jay! The lawyers got his pile of cash; his wife is toiling night and day to keep the kids in clothes and hash. "Tomorrow" is the ambushed walk avoided by the circumspect. "Tomorrow" is the fatal rock on which a million ships are wrecked. —Walt Mason. We pay $20 weekly Sickness and Accident benefits and $5,000 Death benefit.

Miss Helen and Juliette Sturgis with Mrs. Bessie Mae King and Robert Lee Page, are spending a few weeks in El Paso, Texas, with Miss Helen Sturgis' mother at 3800 Savanah St. SPLENDID ADDRESS (continued from page 1) not the exhibit from the outside, it is what we are, as we are judged from our actions, by the fruits we bring forth. "Character is the cultivated power. Shun the examples of the world. How many persons ever made a careful analysis of their own character or labored to develop the good and suppress the evil? "Public sentiment is beginning to measure a man. not so much by his culture, as what he can do with his culture. We must understand that the demands are different now from what they were in times gone by. A man must accomplish something if he expects to meet the possibilities that await him and his race. "I do not object to education: I MORAL---Insure your time---TODAY "Tomorrow" may be too late. rather love education; but how must a man be educated? His feet, his eyes, his hands, his head, all must be educated; and when he is thus educated he is prepared to meet the emergency that awaits his race. As a race thus educated, we cannot be hindered from taking position in like as American citizens. "It is often said that everything is against us, and it seems so; but while this seems the case, we must be doing something individually and as a race. My hand and your have a work to do; my head and yours have a duty to perform. "We endured slavery 243 years and stayed here and we shall still be here when lynch laws shall have spent their force, and with us will be our white brother. Let us be done with sowing the seed of bitterness; we can only reap the whirlwind of destruction. "There is one thing the Negro must be proud of before he can reach the height and possibilities that await him. He must learn to be proud of his race and color. No race can be successful until it does this. I would not change my color, because I am proud of it. If there is any one thing that will clog the wheel of our material progress, it is some of us. Try to be yourself. We should not be dazzled at the splendor and magnificence of those who have had hundreds of years to make this country what it is today. "No man is a success who has not a fixed sign post, an aim in life. Too much Greek will do you no good with a white apron on. I do not say that you should not study Greek, if you intend to fill a chair in some institution of learning. I do not say that you should not read medicine if you intend to become a physician, or law if you desire to follow that profession. If we watch our chances, and take timely advantage of the opportunities offered us, our race will greatly improve and we will be wage workers, skilled artisans and eventually land owners and a wealthy class of citizens of this country. I advise you to learn trades; learn to become mechanics. We have the ability and capacity to reach the highest point and go further in progress than has been made by any other race. "Some of these days all the skies will be brighter. Some of these days all the burdens will be lighter. Hearts will be happier, souls will be whiter. "Some of these days in the deserts uprising. "Some of these days let us bear with our sorrow, Faith in the future—its light we may borrow; There will be joy in the golden tomorrow— Some of these days."

Baskets and boxes filled with good things were brought forth and a sumptuous spread was placed on the grass before the little tols. All ate to their hearts' content and went away happy. Vacation Time is Here Following is a short article written by Mrs. I. McPinion to the parents of children who have been attending school. Her article follows: "School has closed until September and while we are on a little vacation let us not forget to help our teachers by having our children take their books and spend at least one hour a day in study. Give the child outdoor exercise. Children should be taken through a set form of exercises daily. Be sure to give your child the proper food. A child should not have coffee or tea. When we tell our children to do or not to do a certain thing, we should be firm and gentle never harsh. We should be kind and gentle at all times. It is not wise to punish a child when you are angry. Wait until your anger has cooled, then call the child into question and tell him of the wrong he did. Our children should be taught the Golden Rule, i.e., to do unto others as they would that others should do unto them. Arrange breakfast and home duties so that the child will have time to dine before going to school. Become acquainted with teacher and visit the school during regular class work. Manifest interest in the child, school work and in all else connected with the training of the child. Provide good light and a quiet place for study, being careful to avoid interruption during time set aside for study. The habit of saving should be taught and thrift should be encouraged. In order to accomplish the best results, parent and teacher must work together, the spirit of co-operation and understanding should prevail. By so doing we can help the teacher train our children as they should be." Shortly after July 1st, as was announced, a unit of the National Guard would be formed entirely of Indians. It will be recalled that several Arizona Indians were volunteers in the late war and did valian service.

We give the same careful attention and service when selling this cheap lumber as we do when selling the best we have and we cheerfully refund your money for any of it you wish to return....This is always our policy and you can't be dissatisfied when you buy lumber from us if you will let us know it.
