Good morning, Justin town. We

seen much, don’t know overybody
but we are next to the “dope” and
we know some things. Watch us,

time it be reflected on [tx own city.

Speaking of camouflage, which is 8
new term to be applied to “white

We see nome things clearly. On
thing we can’t see is how the Chi

us right, Mr. Editor.

In noting, allow us to ask the Sta
of Zion who was the eminent orator
scholar and versatile writer carrie
on its front page last week? We have
looked over, around and under the
cut trying to find hia name,
Speaking of newspapers, we scar
some thirty Afro-American journal:
each week, and wo see them grow:
ing better each issue. What is need.
ed now is more cash subscribers for
them all. We believe in them
strong.

the city he interviewed the Gov.

to purchase uniforms for the colored
home guards of that city. They
have 149 men in the company and
a band of thirty pleces. Good ‘or
Kansas City, for, while she only has
three colored policemen, she can
boast of two mllitary companies.

his farm fe well improved with barns

have lived on that farm for several
years and everybody knows him to
be one of the most successful truck
growers on the North Side.
