THE CLARK HAT SHOP Phone Red 5822 1414 Western Avenue TOPEKA, KANSAS Ever stop to Think That Topeka is possessed with a splendid array of talented people? Some are gifted with musical talent, others along dramatic lines. In this array we find vocalists, readers, orators, poets, debaters and musicians. Ambitious young men and women who need the opportunity to display their ability along these various lines. Now from whom must they recieve inspiration and encouragement in this respect? None other than the Negro population of this city. Pointedly our argument is, that with this group of home talent, together with the increasing number of young people who come to the city to attend Wreburn College, Topeka should afford a forum on Sunday afternoon whereby we might assemble during the fall and winter season and be enlightened and entertained for an hour or so by those who are able and willing. As a matter of fact, the community needs just such entertainment and intellectual food as such an organization would afford. An occasional discussion of the many current problems which confront the American people today, would give us various angles with which we might be able to judge intelligently and be benefitted thereby. Then too, our Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute with its splendid corps of teachers and student body might be able from time to time to render an occasional program. Our churches would certainly grant the use of their buildings for that length of time for such a gathering. Our young people preparing them selves for a life of public service need just such training as may be the ability of a musician or speaker or more than appearing before the critical public. It is the making of great speakers and musicians LET'S HAVE A SUNDAY FORUM MRS. RUTH G. BROWN PASSES Word has just reached this office trilogy of the death of Mrs. Ruth G.
