"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.

The Executive Board confined its session to recommendation of measures to go before the organization. The state meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. Lynn Ross Carter. Song by the organization. The state song: "Rowing Not Drifting," composed by Mrs. Nola Hamilton, was sung. Prayer by Mrs. I. McPinion. The following committee were appointed: Credentials, Mrs. M. A.

Report of officers received and the following new clubs added to the federation: Colored Women's Charity Club of Tucson, since changed to Civic and Welfare Club; Willing Workers Club of Flagstaff; The Social Art Club of Prescott; Nogales Colored Women's Club of Nogales. These clubs were cordially welcomed into the Federation and will strengthen the organization thru out the state. At the afternoon session, the delegates from out of town made their reports, which showed these clubs working in harmony, greatly interested in the work and promising even greater work in the coming year. The Charity Club of Phoenix reported great work. This club has three furnished rooms which are used for Tubercular patients/and others. The Charity club is a member of the Welfare League, which organization Is composed of the leading charity institutions of Phoenix. They reported sending Christmas stocking to the Industrial school, baskets of food to needy families, stockings to poor children, sent one man to Omaha Nebr., assisted on the fare of another and of having paid for food for needy families in the community. The chairman of the education committee, Mrs. Jessie James, made a favorable report on the high school bill. Mrs. James is to be congratulated on the success of the bill.

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. RESOLUTIONS MADE BY WOMEN'S CLUBS AT STATE MEETING Following are resolutions adopted by the Arizona Federation of Colored Women's Clubs at their annual meeting held Wednesday, May 25, at the C. M. E. church in Phoenix: "We, the women of the Arizona Federation of Colored Women's clubs in convention assembled at Phoenix, Arizona, hereby submit the following resolutions: Education "We rejoice as citizens of Arizona that the educational outlook for the high school is steadily improving and we hope the day is not far distant when the Arizona legislature will give equal opportunities to all children under their jurisdiction. Labor "We ask that our laboring class be given a fair show during this labor crisis. That the government protect the inteersts of colored American citizens, for while they are taxed equally with others, they are given the same opportunities. Lynching "We join hands with the N. A. A. C. P., the North Western and National Association of Colored Women in their effort to suppress lynching. "We further pledge ourselves to work for the uplift of our people, morally, intellectually and spiritually. "We thank the pastor and members of the C. M.

There have been some complaints about some of the people in authority, and some of the methodds employed by them, but only angles could do things in such a perfect manner as to escape the complaints and criticisms of some people. The more we hear and see of the men in power, the more we are convinced that the people were most fortunate in their selections of these men who have been plaged in control of affairs. When men in authority set high and lofty examples, the people do their best to uphold the standard. Nowhere in the United States is there a more sincere effort existent to better the re- lations of the races than here. Men of thought and men of ac- tion are putting shoulder to shoulder, not only to create a magni- ficient sentiment for rightgous uplift among all the people, but there is a generous impulse to meet the other fellow half way, and lend a helping hand anywhere it is needed. In this city, where everybody, is cosmopolitan, no person seems anxious to lord himself to the detriment of others. The idea of give and take is general, and we thank God for the excellent spirit which permeates the very atmosphere. The dis- position to lend a ready ear to reasonable demands is com- mendably prevalent and, in consequence, differences of opinion find ready adjustment. As long as this spirit is uppermost, the fame of Phoenix will never lack for advocates of her splendid virtues, or defenders at any attempt to defame or detract from her renown. SOWING AND REAPING Again, we wish to express our thanks to the white as well as to the colored people, for the loyal support they are giving the Tribune in the form of subscriptions and advertising. We are a firm believer in the divine injunction: “Whatsoever A Man Soweth, Tiftat Shall He Also Retp”, and accordingly we have tried to keep the columns of this paper free from those articles that would antagonize one group or the other. Our policy is to be fair and impartial and, in consequence, we number today among our subscribers and patrons as many people of the white race as among our own people. Every day brings requests from some member of the white race to be placed on our mailing list. And too, our own people seem to appreciate the Tribune now more than ever. We had no idea that conservatism in journalism would pay such big dividends, notwithstanding, we adopted it as our policy and have no regrets. ‘ a TULSA RIOT As we go to press this Thursday morning, we are advised by Associated Press reports of a race riot that is raging in Tulsa, Okla. The full report of the riot as gathered by a representative of the Associated Negro Press, who is now on the scene, will ap- pear in next week’s issue of this paper. You cannot always be- lieve the reports as given out by the other side, sometimes they are colored. The Associated Negro press will report the affair just as it was, without attempting to justify the actions of one group or the other-and vice versa. Watch next week’s Tribune for complete report of this affair. % YUMASOMERTON + PEPPER EE EEE EES (By Luyetta Featherston) Mr, Booker died last week following & brief illness, ‘Tho: public sheool of Somerton had & delightful entertainment on May 27.

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.
