THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER. TWENTY-THIRD YEAR Olathe was one of our first stops in Kansas, enroute to Oklahoma. The leading barber shop of the town is operated by a colored man. Most of the colored people have their own property. Mr. Box, one of the enterprising citizens of that town, has handled the mail between the station and the postoffice for several years. Some of the colored people live in Kansas City and work in Olathe. Here they are found engaged in section work on the railroad and in farm work. Several are engaged in city work, also. Rev James Holmes has charge of the Court House and is the owner of some good property. We were pleased to meet Mr. and Mrs. Ross, ploners of the town. Mr. Ross is an old soldier and served in the Civil War. Their daughter keeps house for them. They also have a son in Omaha, who owns and operates a drug store, another a teacher in the public school system of Kansas City, Mo., and still asother, who is a prosperous farmer. They own good property and are doing well. Mr. John Walker, the veteran house-cleaner, has all the work he can do. Prof. Porter, principal of the public school reports that everything in school work is moving along nicely and the school is in a splendid condition. Olathe has a fine class of colored citizens who stand for high morals and progressiveness. There has been a little stir in the papers for a few weeks over some mishappening between some white man and a colored woman. It is true that the County Attorney has been appealed to, to bring action against the white man, but up to this time, has refused to do so. If the better class of whites would show him up and tear the mask from his face, the community would be better off. This is the class of whites, who show the greatest dislike for the colored race in the day time, but seek their company in the shades of night. This man ought to be ferreted out. If necessary should be driven out of the town. This, so-called gentleman of purity, PAOLA Here we find a progressive little town. Business, however, is somewhat dull, as is the case generally. A few colored farmers are to be found in the vicinity. The school is principaled by Prof. John E. Lowry, a brilliant young man, who has succeeded his father, who served as principal for a long time. Our race here has two restaurants and a barber shop. Mr. Cooper is employed at the Court House and is a substantial citizen of this town. Mr. R. M. Shelby is still in charge of the Cooperative Grain and Elevator Co. where he has been for over twenty years. We were proud to visit his home and meet his wife and their three sweet, little ones, the baby, being just three months old. Mr. Shelby is one of the veterans of the town and is looked upon as one of the leaders and is well respected by both races. He has shown the young people what could be done to build up the population of the town. He is a progressive citizen and one of the best grain buvers in the state. We were the guests of Prof. Lowery and wife and little daughter, a sweet, little two year old lady, who keeps things lively around the household. Mr. KI Jackson has gone into the business of manufacturing concrete blocks for building purposes and is doing well. We passed thru Osawatomie, but did not stop, however, we understand the race population is growing a little, as the colored people are being employed now by the Missouri Pacific shops. We called upon our friends, Mr. Lays and daughter, whom we found well and getting on nicely. He is an employee of the Missouri Pacific company, where he has been for a number of years. GARNETT Our next stop we find that this is the county seat of Anderson county and there are a few prosperous farms in the community. Rev. Jas. Browne, who conducts one of the best and most successful shows. Historical Society State House isits the Folks in and Oklahoma. shops in the state. About 99 per cent of his business being among the whites. He is busy at all times. Has the latest improved machinery and is up-to-date in his business methods. He is pastor of the Baptist church and is now preparing to build as their church was burned sometime ago. The Reverend is one of the leading ministers of the state. A good business man and is held in high esteem by the citizens of both races in the town. He enjoys the company of his wife and little sixteen month old daughter, Mattie Ethlyn. His shop is located on the main street, where he owns the building, as well as other property. We were out in the Tolson settlement. We found Mr. Tolson one of Anderson County's leading farmers. While here we met Attorney Dorsey Green and Mr. George McClelland, of Kansas City. Mr. Tolson had planned to entertain the gentlemen with a rabbit hunt. The crowd started out on the hunt at 10:00 a. m. and at 12 m., had bagged seventy-five rabbits. Judge Green is always extolling his calling for hunting and his ability as a markman, to the fellows of Kansas City. The Tolson boys say that they usually shoot a rabbit on the run, but when they see a rabbit 'sitting', they call the Judge to take charge of them. So this easily accounts for him bringing in so many rabbits to Kansas City. What the Tolson boys did not shoot on the run, Judge Green got 'sitting'. Mrs. Nora Tolson served a fine dinner and every one enjoyed themselves. She was assisted by several ladies of that community. The widow Armstrong, has a very fine home here and is the leading cateress of the town. She has chickens by the hundreds and several fine hogs for which she finds a ready market. They own registered stock We were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Lonian. COFFEYVILE is one of the thriving cities of the Southeast. The two races get along fine and the two schools here are greatly in need of improvements. Domestic Science and Art classes should be established in the schools. If the principal of the leading building would speak up a little, he could accomplish much for the good of the town and especially for the coming generation. The colored people own good homes and are a progressive lot. We found several good brick churches, a Building Loan Association, one of the only one of its kind in the west. It is owned and operated by race people. They are aiding our people in buying and building homes. Dr. Whittaker is closing his sanitarium and is going to California to make his future home. Messrs. Eagleson and Williams are the proprietors of a first class drug store and are doing well Mr. Eagleson wants to go to California on account of his health. This will afford a splendid opportunity for some enterprising race man to secure a good location and an established business. The D'ckerson Clothes Cleaning company is doing fine. Mr I H T Smith, the veteran real estate and loan agent at 406 Union avenue, is doing a thriving business and is building a new office next door to his residence. He enjoys his four months old baby girl, and states that this is concrete evidence that an old man can come back if he wants to. His wife is associated with him in the business and they are doing well. N. B. Anderson owns a fine residence at 403 Union street where he resides. It is beautifully furnished and everything up-to-date. They also conduct a fine pool hall, cigar and soft drink stand. He is an ardent supporter of the race and a benefactor to old people and children. Mr. A; G. Green has just purchased a home and enjoys the company of his wife and baby. Mr. Hightower the policeman, stands high on the force because he does his duty in a fearless and dignified manner. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING. ```markdown ``` The Plaindealer extends it's large family of Readers a Merry Merry Christmas. ner with Mr. and Mrs. Hunnigan who owns one of the finest family grocery stores in the city and owns one of the finest and most beautiful homes in Coffeyville. COL. FRANK TRAVIS The people of Kansas one every thing to Superintendent Frank Travis. Mr. Jones is the owner of one of the first-clasg restaurants in that town. There are two and the other is owned by Mr. Donsell. Both are doing a good business. LENAPAH was our next stop in the state of Oklahoma. This is a few miles to the south of Coffeyville on the Interurban line which runs from Nowata to Coffeyville. This at one time was a large gathering place for the tribes. They have one school, of which Miss Eva Halloway, is the principal and she is doing much for the race. The colored people who own some good property around the town are doing well in various lines. Rev. A. T Tucker is an old veteran barber of the town. We found race women here who control the wealth and business of their husbands handling thousand of cattle and hogs. NOWATA has a progressive class of citizens, and a fine school and the finest business we found here and one which is a credit to that community, was that conducted by Mr. Joo Pierce, a first-class store. He carries a complete line of the latest styles in clothing, hats, etc., also has a fine clothes cleaning business. He has what is known as the 'underground' system, where his gasoline is filtered before it is used for cleaning purposes. It was certainly a pleasure to go thru this plant and see the improved methods used by Mr. Pierce. His wife assists him in his business in the capacity of cashier and looks after the business end of the concern. He employs a number of people and stands high among the citizens of that community. He does an extensive tailoring business and does cleaning for the wealthiest class of people in the city. The colored people are proud of their principal, Prof J O. Spencer, who has caused to be erected a fine, brick school building. He is certainly doing good work for the colored citizens of this community Mr Ezell conducts a fine grocer, business assisted by his wife. Mr. Henton, the proprietor does a fine business and owns fine property in the town. Mrs. F. Craggett conducts a fine cafe and does a good business at all times. She is also correspondent for the Maindealer, is a good business woman and deserves being helped in her business. The colored people are doing well here and are now buying property in large numbers. A shoe shop and a number of other enterprises constitute the commercial status of the race here. CLAREMORE is a watering place where hundrels go to seek relief from the Radium water to be found here. Mr. Gog conducts a hotel and his business is holding up very well, Mr. Watson, the tailor, conducts a splendid business. Dr. Lee, the physician, is still here and has a nice practice. Mr. William Raim is a fine man and a property owner. DECEMBER 23, 1921 The people of Kansas one everything to Superintendent Frank Travis, who is serving his second term as State Commissioner of Insurance, and can have the third and fourth terms if he desires. He has certainly stood up for what was right between the policy-holders and the compaines. He has never favored one for the other. As a rule insurance companies exact big premiums from their policy holders, but when it comes to pay off, they would try to squeeze the holders by loping off from 20 to 40 per cent or probably not attempt to pay at all. This Mr. Travis would not stand for and he is the first commissioner of Kansas, who had the nerve to make the insurance companies dig up. His friends want him to go to Congress from the second district. He is thinking it over and it may be that he will make the race and if he does do so that same fighting spirit and soldierly courage, which characterized him in the world war, will be found marching from the mouth of the raging Kaw to the south end of Bourbon County, where Howat and the Kansas State Militia are now raising Hades, telling the voters to get in line for a better country. THE NEW YORK TIMES [Name not visible in the image] --- COL. FRANK TRAVIS CAESAR SIMMONS RETIRES AS POSTMASTER AT BOLEY, OKLA. BOLEY, OKLA., Dec. 1—Special to the Plaindealer.) Prof. Caesar F. Simmons, post master for seven years retired to the great regret of the entire citizenship of Boley. He has proves a christian gentleman of the highest type. He is honest, progressive and true, and maintains the entire confidence, respect and friendship of all the people. He has built up for us the best organized post office of this class in the entire state and is appreciatel with the highest gratitude. Mrs. Alfreda Hampton is temporary in charge. No more self sacrificing race man ever lived than Caesar F. Simmons; broad and charitable to all—he has put in more than double service for the past five and a half years and has received many compliments and praise from his patrons and the department. The change in the administration no doubt, had some bear- CAESAR F. SIMMONS ing in connection with his early retiring, as his reappointment would not have expired until 1923. His future plans have not been announced. Since being in office Prof. Simmons has installed every piece of modern device for a post office, including steel equipment to the amount of $6000, and the P. O. Department had granted him a ten year lease on the same, 1920 to 1930. The retiring of Postmaster Caesar 1914 COLONEL FRANK TRAVIS STATE SUPERINTENDENT OF INSURANCE. F. Simmons from the postoffice at Boley, Okla., to be regretted. He gave seven years of honest and untold hard labor to make the office a good one and the patrons feel that they were being served faithfully. The government never provided the necessary help, nor the proper amount of money that was needed to keep the office up to where Mr. Simmons had brought it. He worked day and night and on Sundays as well to maintain the high standard which he desired maintained by the government office in a Negro town. The office does a tremendous business and if the citizens and patrons of Boley want better service, they had better petition the government to allow more help. Postmaster Simmons is a man who believes in progress and a thorough race man. He has done much to secure for the race in that state the necessary support from the state government through appropriations, the State Reformatory for Colored boys at McAllester, by organizing the teachers and superintendents of schools, Juvenile Court officers, County officers and pointing out the harm being done by not providing a suitable place for the youth of the race before they became hardened criminals. This and many other things he has brought to pass in the state of Oklahoma for the good of both races. He has also done great work for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He is an affable and courteous gentleman and has served the citizens of the state and county well. He is a valuable asset to that community and the state at large. Mr. and Mrs. Henry O. Mariott, are moving into their handsome new bungalow on the Ozark Trail. Mrs. Mariott, was formerly Miss Alice Carter, of Emporia, Kansas. Mr. Mariott is a rural carrier of Route No 2.

Thompson "What will life bring to me?" is often a favorite thought in the minds of many people. But it leads only to dreams. A Better and more forceful question, which will lead to action and achievement, would be. "What can we put into life that will be of account?" There is always a great army of persons sitting about waiting for "the ship to come in." when something will turn up; but people of thought know full well, that no ship has ever come into port without a pilot. So it is a plain fact, then, that if you have not sailed out upon the sea of life, in charge of your ship, there is none to come in to your port. The thought is, that if we put nothing into life, there is nothing for us to get out of life. The thing that many of us overlook each day, is the opportunity to do the best we can; it is a fact that we do, but each day we go about doing grudgingly and selfishly, and reasoning within ourselves as to "what's the use" Our group as is well known does not lend itself to organization of the proper kind, readily, and so we go about in a selfish way, not seeking the counsel, and co-operation of our fellowman, in the full knowledge of the fact that we cannot succeed as long as our efforts and interests are so widely divided. A few days ago Col. Roscoe C. Simmons, in a talk to a large gathering of our group at Buxton, Iowa, made it plain that color of skin and hair cut a very small figure in the affairs of the world. Nature, as he said, draws no line, but responds to the activity of the black and white arm and brain alike. The greatest foe to our group is among ourselves.

If we think such places are really necessary, why not build enough of our own, for our especial accommodation, and then we would not have to condemn the other man. While wholesome amusements and recreation of the right kind are necessary to a well rounded life, theatres and the like should not be the goal sought for, but our aim should be, to work for the things that will enable us to make of ourselves better citizens, and to live on beyond this life. There are those among us, who must begin putting into life, some of the things they are hoping to get out of life, for the time is far spent, when they would have resped where they have not sown. Another shout in the camp! A new voice has been lifted up in behalf of Africa, but it does not emanate from the cohorts of Mr. Garvey. This cry that has lately come up from a strange voice in the wilderness, is not a persuasion to any of our group to get their hats and hurry off to the promised land. Mr. H. G. Wells, the eminent English historian and news correspondent, writing from the arms parley at Washington, a short while ago, under the caption of Africa, a "Stifled Voice," seems to entertain some doubts as to Africa's ever being the home of the great mass of black people. However, Mr Wells' plea is for fair play for the black races, and an equal chance to gain education. He calls the attention to the control maintained in Central Africa by the different European powers acting independently of each other, in competition with one another, which in the near future cannot help but become a cause for war. Mr Wells thinks that the effort for an organized world peace through an association of nations, will be misdirected, if they fail to keep in mind the possible method of linking the great region of Africa with the rest of the world, in a universal peace scheme. It was a great thought that Mr. Wells brought to the minds of the American people. Truly, there can be no world peace until there shall be a satisfactory agreement between all nations, because God has so decreed. Abraham Lincoln, years ago, saw the impossibility of the existence of the nation half slave, and half free. While Mr. Wells does not think that Africa is destined to be the home of the great family of Negro people, he sees that the products of that country are necessary to the economical civilization of Europe. This goes to say that Africa like America, and other countries, will eventually be peopled with the various races, and the Negro will go and come at his will. But Mr. Wells has been far sighted enough to see and frank enough to MADE COMFORT FOR From Tulsa To Dinner Pot Boiling in many homes in winter by buying your supply of STORE. made by our own COLORED WO fire following the great disaster of nothing but standard quality mater- ordinary Comfort, 72x90.

Whether there be a "Tempest in a Teapot" at Kansas City, I cannot say. The Kansas City Sun, in a recent issue with a 'scare-crow' headline across the title page, announces the "Split of Allen Chapel" the Gibraltar of African Methodism of the Fifth Episcopal District. This is to be sorely regretted from the fact this church has been the beacon light of the denomination in the central west and has enjoyed an era of unprecedented prosperity for a number of years. Some of the best men of the denomination, those who have contributed much toward the growth of church, have pastored Allen Chapel. Several have risen to the bishopric, among whom is the present incumbent, the Rt. Rev. H. B. Parks. It appears that disentition has arisen because of the dislike of a part of the church for Rev. J. B. Isaacs, the pastor, and the fight is centered upon Bising Parks, and the Rev. Isaacs. Rev. Isaacs came from Bethel Church at Portland, Ore., where he left a good report and has established at Allen Chapel, a record never met by any of his pre-decessors. Bishop Parks returned Rev. Isaacs from the last conference to remain until he called for him; he did so because he was well acquainted with those who were making trouble at Allen Chapel. There are a number of self-appointed leaders in the churches throughout the country, who will not stand for clean and progressive methods in church administration. The Kansas City Sun is a great paper, but it does appear to me at this time, when there is such a pressing need of the prevalence of harmony among us, that Mr. Crews and his friends, could use the Sun and its influence to better end than to create strife in the ranks of the christian army. Let us pray that they may see. In the meantime, Bishop Parks, is in the 'boat' and I believe he is able to row her safely through the 'tempest' and reach the shore without serious hurt to any on board. 'Dum vivimus, vivamus.
