The Negro paper is an absolute
was necessity for the advancement of the
Negro race.
Nothing can take its place. It
and has a mission to perform that no
elect other agency can fill. Even the pul-
pit, however powerful and eloquent
it may be, cannot mold sentiment and
hak accomplish what the press can. Our
great leaders and orators are power-
less without the aid of the press.
Our great political leaders can ac-
be compilish but little without the voice
and support of our great papers.
For the last two years the Negro press has wagged a mighty battle against the wrongs injustice against the race. Today everywhere results are seen and th mighty power of the Negro press is recognized. Friends of our cause are increasing sentiment is crystallizing and the great white tress is coming to our aid in this unceasing fight against lynching, against injustice of all kinds that we are determined to carry to a finish. The Negro of today who does not subscribe, read and support the paper of his race, in his city can no longer claim race loyalty nor can he claim any part inworking for a better day. The Negro papers are the eyes that watch for you at all times. They are the ears that listen to every wind that blows and catch the sound of
very voice that speaks for or against you. They are the mouth that speaks for you when yours cannot speak. There is a duty that every Negro owes the Negro paper that he must not shirk.
First—Item must subscribe and read it. He stands in need of the news upon its pages. The paper is selling its news, and that is what its readers buy. Every Negro stands in need of news that these papers carry, and if they are real race loving, loyal Negroes, they will buy the news.
Second—Then it must be borne in mind that subscription will not support a paper; subscription helps, but this alone will not run a paper. Hence every Negro business should advertise as liberally as possible in order that the race papers might not be hampered and limited for lack of finance.
Third—And there is another way that every Negro can and should aid Negro papers to do the best possible work.
Nearly all the white firms do advertising, and the most of them do a large amount during the year.
Read your paper carefully each issue and take note, and see if the firm with whom you spent your hard earned money weekly are represented in the advertising columns of your paper. Think the matter over, see if you can find just cause why the firm from whom you buy groceries, from whom you buy clothing, furniture, etc. should not be represented in the advertising list in your paper as well as in the others.
Buy your goods wherever you please, make your own choice where you shall trade, but above all things it is your sacred duty and you should not fail to give liberal patronage to those firms who place advertisements in your paper. For the advertisers make it possible that your paper exists.
There are some white firms in our cities whose trade is 50 to 75 per cent colored, and if they were as liberal in advertising in Negro papers as Negroes are liberal to them in trade, 75 per cent of their advertisements would be seen in Negro papers.
Now, colored men, women and all, we are looking you square in the face and we are asking each of you to do your full city in supporting your own iner—The Memphis Times.

LOU-AU-GENE
Hair Grower promotes the growth of the Hair by keeping the scalp in a healthy condition, which will prevent premature graying and falling of the Hair. It contains no dye stuff but will darken gray Hair, and has no equal for the cure of dandruff, tetter, seabs, white patches that itch and irritate, resulting often into bleeding sores and in fact all forms of scalp diseases. Men find it a wonderful dressing which takes instant effect upon the most stubborn hair by brushing it after applying. It is so harmless that mothers have used it successfully upon the heads of their babies to grow the hair on the sides and back where usually it rubs off. It will grow Hair with or without the use of hot irons but when it is dressed the Grower will keep the Hair straight, longer than any other. Price Per Box 50s.
LOU-AU-GENE
Pressing Oil is an excellent dressing for the Hair, making it glossy, straight and beautiful. It also strengthens the Hair and keeps it from becoming brittle.
Skin Bleach will brighten the complexion without making the face raw and more as is the case in a great many bleaches. It will graduate freckles and all facial bleaches arising from a diseased condition of the skin by using it every day and night as it serves as a spongid cream you will be surprised to see the change in the color of the complexion so gently brighten about without the terrible torture which is experienced in the use of most bleaches. It makes the skin smooth, bright, soft and velvety. Many who cannot use face powder in their satisfaction find that it takes nicely after using LOU—AU—GENE Skin Bleach. Price Per Jar 50c.

The idea of having a Negro State Fair originated with I Coody Johnson, who is the founder and President of the Fair. The object of the fair is to promote and encourage agriculture and live stock raising among the Negro citizens of our state. Too many people of our race are leaving the farm for the already overcrowded cities, and increasing the high cost of living; and in order to bring our people up to their true worth we are offering premiums for live stock, agricultural and domestic arts Exhibits. The Negro has this assurance that he will have a chance to compete for prizes against members of his own race to be judged by Judges of his own selection.
Here is a chance to encourage your boy and girl to do something that will be a credit as well as profit to themselves. Just what you produce and exhibit will be shown at the fair. If you have a fine horse, cow, pig or other domestic animal bring them to the fair. The good housewife will have a chance to compete with other women of her own Nationality, in cooking, needle work, and all other arts in which women are interested. Premiums will be given to the boys and girls Clubs for their exhibits. There is no better way to advertise your business than by bringing an exhibit to the fair.
LOCATION—The grounds are located on a beautiful elevation where you can see the surrounding country for miles, on J. Coody Johnson's vast Ranch, the finest Ranch and Farms owned by any Negro in Oklahoma. The grounds are electric lighted, at night, and presents a picture long to be remembered. It is easy of access, being on the main highway through Sumnole County State Highway from all points east and west, north and south lead to this fair ground. A few gallons of gasoline will bring you in your "car" with the whole family to the greatest fair ever attempted by Negroes, here you can see four days of real pleasure.
Amusements of all kinds for all classes of people. A splendid race track is being prepared where horse races, auto races, and cycle races will take place. Some of the best horses owned by our people will be at the fair. Airplanes in which you can ride and see the whole country will make lally ascensions
