THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Library. MARCUS GARVEY Great Meeting in West Indies.--15,000 Delegates. Echoes FromEik's Grand Lodge VOLUME XLVI NO. 44 Great Echo THE WILSON Kingston, Jamaica.—In a session attended by 15,000 delegates, and marked by an undercurrent of opposition, Marcus Garvey, president general and founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was re-elected head of that body at its sixth international congress held in New York. Garvey was also selected to continue as head of the African Communities League, which has headquarters in St. Andrews. Meets Opposition That there was a well defined opposition, however, was kept well evident throughout the session. This opposition, however, was kept well under control by the tactful handling of a well oiled majority steam roller. Several times the two factions almost clashed, and at the Tuesday business session, Garvey adherents, after charging that there were delegates present for the sole purpose of making trouble, urged the President General to point them out by name. This, however, Garvey, did not do on the ground that it would not be discreet to name the troublemakers and undesirables. No Relation In accepting the presidency of the organization Garvey declared that it had no official relations with the incorporated association in New York. On the eve of the meeting of the congress, Garvey and officials of the association were hailed into court by G. Marks, who sought to collect obligations incurred by the body which Garvey headed in New York. Fined $125 At the court proceedings Garvey refused an order of the court to bring books of the association and was cited for contempt. The court gave him 30 minutes in which to produce books and levied a fine of $125. Liberty Hall, meeting place of the association, the equipment of "The Bribery Park," Garvey's daily; and Edelweiss Park, the meeting of the congress and a church were ordered placed under control of the court. Supreme Master A. W. Holmes and his associates in the National Ideal Benefit Society, are jubilant over the outcome of the session of the seventeenth annual session of the Supreme Lodge. The final session Thursday night, 5th instant, turned out to be a jubilee meeting. All efforts to adjourn early were fruitless. The delegates insisted upon expressing themselves. Editor John Mitchell, Jr., who had charge of the publicity feature, came in for much praise, and resolutions to that effect were enthusiastically adopted. MAN DROWNS IN CANAL A colored man was seen going across the bridge at the foot of Ninth Street and on Friday his clothes were found. On Sunday his body was found floating in the dock at Twelfth Street. It was turned over to Funeral Director A. D. Price, Jr. No one coming to claim it, the remains were interred in Potter's field in Oakwood Cemetery. On last Tuesday, a tall swarthy individual, who answered to the name of John Mitchell appeared at Police Headquarters and stated that he was from Oklahoma, but resided in this city on Compromise Street and he thought the man was a relative of his. Editor John Mitchell happened to be present and he eyed keenly his double in name at least. The man was identified as John Griffith, of Richmond, Va. Randolph Bros., the progressive Church Hill funeral directors, had the body of Mrs. Bessie Lee Thomas "lying in state" Saturday, September 7, 1929, in their parlors at 730 N. Twenty-eighth Street. Friends thronged the place. The glass doors when opened revealed a display of surpassing loveliness brought about the artistic touch of somebody. To the right, an a visitor entered was a new lavender figured casket thrown open. On the left was another of the same type only it was a figured gold finished one and said to be the latest patterns from the casket builders' factory. The floral designs in the funeral pallet added to the scene and in the rear of the room, rested the remains of Mrs. Bessie Lee Thomas in a silvered metallic casket, with heavy extension bar handles. An electric fixture, about 12 inches wide, with colored glass and figured work was extended over the head of the casket and the electric bulb threw its refugient beams upon the features of the person, who had gone on before, but whose body was still with us, so female attendants stood beside the casket, cleaning and making as disturbed and that the body and draperies be kept up to the standard. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock. Rev. W. T. Johnson, D. D., officiating at the First Baptist Church, Funeral Director T. H. Allen had active charge of the display at the parlor. Funeral Director Robert C. Scott carries on his business, whether he is in Virginia or Massachusetts. If you doubt it, send in your order and see what kind of service you will receive and the price you will be required to pay. Responsible people can always get terms. Cash buyers are the great savers. Pay cash and be done with the whole business. RICHMOND ,VIRGINIA, CUS in West rom LECTED. --- THREE BAPTIST CONVENTIONS The National Baptist Convention, Inc., under the presidency and leadership of that great Chicago divine, Rev. L. K.

The National Baptist Convention, unincorporated, has been in session at Norfolk, Va. Rev. John Edmund Wood, D. D., of Danville, Ky., is president and was re-elected. The Lott Carey Convention has been in session at Columbia, S. C., with Rev. C. S. Brown, D. D., president. Information comes that Rev. A. A. Graham, D. D., was retired as secretary of that body. This is the result of a long, protracted struggle. The Sharon Baptist Church, Rev. R. H. Johnson, pastor, will be ready for occupancy on the fifth Sunday in this month. Rev. A. S. Thomas, D. D., will hold forth there that night. Contractor A. T. Holmes made a quick and satisfactory job of it. FULTON NOTES At Mt. Calvary Baptist Church last Sunday the sermons morning and evening were delivered by the Rev. Wm. Braxton. Tomorrow the pastor, Rev. C. A. Cobbs, will be present and preach special sermons in the morning and evening. Last week our pastor conducted a successful revival at Scottsville, Va.

See him today or let your relatives see him some other time. Phone Madison 577. SEPTEMBER 14, 1929 st Indies Eik's RS. ABBIE J FEDERAL FARM BOARD Washington, D. C., Sept. 9.—Progress in co-operative marketing Progress in co-operative marketing was reported to the Federal Farm Board by Mr. A. A. Turner, who is in charge of Negro Extension Work in the Florida Agricultural College at Gainesville, Fla. A number of years ago Mr. Turner helped these farmers to organize the Florida Farmers Co-operative Association which is based on local associations operating under the direction of the State Marketing Bureau. At the present, Mr. Turner said the chief need of these organizations is money with which to purchase seed and fertilizer. Under the Agricultural Marketing Act the Farm Board is not given authority to make loans to co-operatives for purchasing supplies and Mr. Turner was advised by the Board that he make application to the Intermediate Credit Bank in South Carolina for such loans. On behalf of the Board, Chairman Legge advised Mr. Turner that the board is given authority to make the payment for him he spoke are making good progress in co-operative marketing and that later should they need help in procuring marketing facilities the board would give consideration to such an application. All talk about Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson and his methods has ceased hereabouts. Regardless of the rightfulness or the wrongfulness of the methods, it is conceded that the leader had the votes and that no one could get them away from him. Just what it cost him to make the fight is not known. With the help of R. O. Couch Hon. P. W. Howard, John H. R. Hawkins managing his campaign, it looks very much as though politics was at the bottom of the whole business. Wilson had a combination that could not be defeated and a "split" is out of the question. Rev. and Mrs. J. Andrew Bowler, accompanied by their popular daughter, Miss Antoinette H. Bowler, have returned to the city after a pleasant vacation spent in New York City with their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs R. E. Harris. Rev. Bowler will occupy his pulpit Sunday at Mount Olivet. His subject will be, "Know Thyself." Mr. Charles Satchell Morris, Jr, will lecture at Hood Temple, Rev. G. W. Gaines, pastor, Friday night, the 13th Subject, "The Qualities of Leadership." s.--15,000 Gran OHNSON GR The following is a list of deaths of colored people reported to Richmond Bureau of Health from August 29, to September 10, 1929, with age and date of death: Mary Swept Johnson, 1007 Short Baker St., 40 years, August 24.

During his absence his palatial mansion was renovated. It is one of the most attractive structures in this city. Dr. E. R. Jefferson, who recently fractured his leg at the knee when an automobile struck him on the Marshall Street viaduct, is improving. He hopes to be able to leave his room soon. Mr. A. D. Prie, Jr., has returned with his bride from an extended honeycomon trip. Most of the time was spent at Harpers Ferry, W. Va. A pastor is needed for the Fifth Street Baptist Church and one for the Mosby Memorial Baptist Church. There are numerous candidates, but not one of them seem as yet to have struck the right chord, so to speak. The public schools opened here last Thursday. The enrollment was heavy. Dr. William Pickens, in commenting upon race prejudice in foreign countries, declares that "A Negro is a thousand times freer in Germany." J. Finley Wilson's vote was 750 to 262 for his New York opponent, Casper Holstein. GRAVEL HILL BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday School convened at the usual hour with Assistant Superintendent Amanda Young at her post of duty. At 11:30 o'clock Rev. Edwin Charity brought a good message.

The twenty passengers that were lucky to get tickets between New York and Philadelphia, Chennai, the Graf Zepelin offer her record round the world cruise were made famous by the newspaper correspondents and cameramen stationed at Lokluchur. There is a battery of moving picture men talking, telling movies of Dr. Wm. M.

At Friedrichsafen Dr. Scholl was met by airplane and flew to his offices and factories in Coopersburg, Stockholm, Berlin, Frankfurt, Zurich, Basel, Milan, Firs, London and other European cities in less than two weeks time. He saved a month in travel between Chicago and Europe. With all his handicaps, Babe Ruth has caught and passed them all!

PLAYING THE GAME My greatest ambition, at the age of seventy-six, is to be fair, polite, and as little of a assistance as possible to others to meet my just obligations to the world, and get out of it with as little annoyance to others as possible. . . . I long to oblige my children by being as little trouble to them as they have been to me, and I have good children. I have a vague ambition to imitate Lucyurgus in one respect. When he was old and useless, he left a kind and intelligent word to his acquaintances, and went on again. He was never again. I have a large ambition to spend my last aage worst day in a distant place. An occasional friendly letter to my children, and then the long silence. If my final attendants are honestly able to write to my children I was reasonably patient, and in possession of my facilities, I would consider that an achievement old men not themselves have all ways been distressing to see. I have long observed that every thing is contradicted. As wise a man as I know will make a statement to me and another equally wise declares there is nothing in it, and my informant a fool.

Big business is like big baseball players are mainly country town men who have climbed into fast company solely on merit. I was once talking of baseball to an old player, who had been given a chance in fast company, and failed. He did not exhibit the slightest bitterness because he was compelled to quit the game, and engage in law. "I order to be accepted in the big leagues," he said, "a man must have everything; I didn't it." In business, as in baseball, the game is played in the country as well as the big towns, and the same hold good; most applause and profit for those able to best hit. He the ball, field and display the most intelligence. The stars in the big towns are constantly dropping out because of age; recruits must be had from the team, and always the recruits selected strictly on accomplishment. Any young man who understands the game of baseball and its rules understands the conditions governing success in life. If he fails to play the game as well as he might, let him take his medicine with as good grace as possible. LADIES WILL BE DELIGHTED. SEE THE 4-PIECE BUFFET SET.

Delany, Assistant United States Attorney, is candidate for Congress from the 21st New York District. It is claimed that Mr. Delany can duplicate the feat of Hon. Oscar DePriest in Chicago, if the colored people of the District will qualify. A Democrat is running for the office. We have received a circular letter from Hon. William M. Brown, independent candidate for Governor of Virginia, under date of September 10, 1929, and in addition the platforms of both the anti-Smith Democratic Party (in synopsis form) and that in full of the Republican Party of Virginia. Both of them will prove to be most persuasive in their appeals to the average voter. We take it that Candidate Brown, like Candidate Pollard, desires all the votes that he can get, from whatever source in the coming political contest. THE WILL OF THE PRESIDENT The Republican National Committee met in Washington, D. C., last Tuesday and as a result unanimously elected Hon. Claudius H. Huston as chairman. Hon. Perry W. Howard, of Mississippi, has shown no disposition to retire as a member of the committee even though he has been denied his patronage rights. It is asserted that ill-feeling exists between Hon. Robert R. Church and the distinguished statesman, who has been elevated to the chief political office within the gift of the Republican Party. It is also announced that Mr. Huston is wedded to the "illy-white" idea, the corner-stone of which is the non-recognition of the citizen of color, regardless of his political prestige, respectability, wealth or religion. So far as we are able to view the matter, the only course to pursue is to "wait until our time comes", for "Come it will, the day decreed by fate." We have lived long enough to see political parties rise and fall. We know that coalitions of the kind now being formed and propagated cannot last. The situation in Georgia is anomalous. Our position is that there should be no yielding in the matter. Let the chairman and the administration at Washington take what they will by force, but not by supine submission. Whatever President Herbert Hoover and his political associates will, becomes a command and virtually the law of the Republican Party as at present constituted.

A WORD ABOUT GARVEY The Baltimore, Md., Afro-American, which during Marcus Garvey's sojourn in the United States had much to say in condemnation of this great leader, under the caption of "Garvey's Magic" has this to say in its issue of the 17th ult: A legendary hero of ancient times stamped his foot and an armed host sprang from the soil to do his bidding. Marcus Garvey, provisional president of Africa, commander-in-chief of the Black Star Steamship Line, and secretary-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, waved his hand and twelve thousand delegates from all parts of the world followed him through the streets of Kingston, Jamaica, British West Indies, in a public demonstra- Exelento Quinine Pomade makes your hair new!

Reminiscent it was in color, if not in numbers, of the monster Garvey pageants in New York. Participants in the parade carried flags of all nations; there were uniformed bands, uniformed ranks of Garvey legions, engineer corps, Black Cross nurses and boy scouts. Leading the marchers, in naval uniform, was the man Garvey, whom Bishop Reverdy C. Ransom has termed the "mightest prophet who has appeared among us in fifty years." In the United States, the Garvey organization was sued so often for debt that no track can be kept of the court procedures. Garvey has been pursued by his first wife, who claims he was not properly divorced. Garvey headquarters of an Elk hall. Garvey imprisoned five years for using the United States mails to defraud, was denoted in distrace. He was reported as penniless and a prisoner in Jamaica, but soon thereafter, he toured England and France. Returning to Jamaica, he called together his followers from the four corners of the earth to dream with him and plan for politics, and social freedom for the Negro, establishment of a universal social code, formation of a chain of Negro daily papers around the world, raising a fund of $600,000,000 in ten years, opening of Negro defense headquarters in the large cities of the world, organization of a new steamship line, formulation of plans for a Negro re-organization and a Negro church, and the appointment of a commission to the League of Nations. Garvey clapped his hands and twelve thousand followers shook the earth as they marched through the streets of Kipgron. Yes, there is still magic in the name of Garvey. For our part, we disagreed with many things that he said and did, but we always believed that he had the fundamental principles of true leadership within him and that his cause could not die and that he could not be side-tracked in his aims and purposes by heinous persecution. They made a martyr of Hon. Eugene V. Debs, the Socialist, when they incarcerated him in the Atlanta Penitentiary and they canonized Hon. Marcus Garvey when they treated him in the same way. He is regarded now as a hero even by thousands of those who opposed him and by practically every follower, who has espoused his cause. It is a case of "history repeating itself." REV. BOONE'S BOOK We have received from the author an autographed copy of "Liberia As I Know It." Rev. C. C. Boone, M.D., has dedicated this book to his wife, Mrs. Rachel Boone, nee Tharpas. She served as a missionary with him for five years in Africa. The introduction was written by Rev. Dr. R. R. Moton, the very able principal of Tuskegee Institute. We are frank to say that we have never read a work with so much practical, interesting valuable informa- A. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGLE tion concerning a country as this book contains within a compressed space of 152 pages. The book is cloth bound, printed on good paper and is pleasing to look upon and also most interesting to read. The frontispiece contains a picture of the house in this section, 35 miles from this city, where the famed Lott Carey was born. The Rev. Dr. Evans Payne and two friends may be seen seated there. It is of particular interest since he writes a vivid description of the grave in Africa, where Lott Carey is buried. Here is what Rev. C. C. Boone says: One day I was talking with Rev. W. H. Johnson, of Liberia, and he said to me: "You know that Lott Carey was buried up yonder in the cemetery?" I said: "No; it is not possible. I begged him to come and go up there and find it. When it grew cooler, we did go and walked all over the place. The cemetery was then-grown over with tall grass. We could not find it. The second time we looked for it, but could not find it. The third time we looked for it, but could not find it. He was the only man who had the least knowledge as to the location of the grave. Finally, he said to me: "Let us wait until the grass is burned off and then we can see better and can find the grave." So we just had to wait until the grass was burned. After the grass fire, Rev. Johnson came to Monrovia again, and I said to him: "Come, let us find that grave." He consented to help me look for it. We went out there and soon he called me and I ran where he was. He said: "Boone, here is the footstone; the head-stone has fallen down, but I am sure this is the footstone." I took a short stick and scratched in the sand and found the tomb-stone buried in the sand. I thanked him just as much as I could. The next morning I was up by time. I went out and hired three boys. I went in the loft and pulled out a tent that I had used more than 500 miles of CO2. I carried it up to the cemetery and put it down under the shade of a big plum tree. I carried my cook pots and food and water. I also bought a barrel of cement and rolled it up there. I bought some pine-boards and had them carried up. Then I took the trowel that I had used to fix up my wife's grave in Congo and carried it up there. When I found that the tomb-bone was buried so deeply in the sand (it had been down there twenty-five years), I sent and got some weeding hoes and dug it out of the ground. I made the boys bring as many stones as they could find, and made up the grave. I also built up the base for the stone. I learned the brick-mason's trade by building brick churches in Africa. When the stone was erected (I mean when it was washed off and erected), then I cemented over the grave. That was a happy day's work. I took down the tent and went back to my home in the city. Next day I secured the services of Mr. Humphrey Taylor, a very good photographer, and had a picture made while I stood by Lott Carey's tomb. I could not stop here. I went to Providence Baptist Church and got their consent to use their church building for the Decoration Day of Lott Carey's grave.

The last crop came through under difficulties; the heavy spring rains beat furiously on the tender plants; it seemed for a time that they would be buried in mud and destroyed. But, at each gleam of sunshine, they sprang to life and vigor again; it was a struggle—a very hard one. At last, however, they grew strong, burst into bloom, and soon ripened the choicest berries I have ever seen. They were sweeter, the neighbor said, for their having plenty of moisture which gave renewed vigor and more active growth. Had there been no clouds, rain and mud, he would not have had half a crop, and that inferior berries. (SUCCESSOR TO A. D. PRICE) First Class Caskets of Latest Designs.

When storms beat upon me I sank down from the chill and force of the pelting drops. I was powerless to resist; I had to submit to whatever came, because I could not prevent its coming. But, the glorious part of it was, I didn't despair and fall down discouraged and helpless. There were gleams of sunshine through the clouds every now and then, more appreciated by their contrast with the cold and clouds. I was able through courage and faith to use above the storms of adversity, and, whatever of good fruit I have borne, has ripened because of my faith that regards everything for the best. Human plants are much the same, and subject to the same laws as those of the vegetable kingdom. If we fail to weather the gales, we are weaklings and may perish by reason of the fact. Courage is better than fear, and will carry us through with divine guidance to re-assure us along the way.

Bodacious Growing Hard-Difficult Not by 17 Million Bills a Year! GLAD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY FROM PAINTING BY PLOCKHORST The less picture of modern youth is badly out of focus, and the proof for it is that interest, in bible study and religion is actually on the increase among the rising generation, especially in the cities. Modern youth may not practice formal religion as keenly as his grandparents did, states Dr. James M. Gray, president of the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, but "he is more universally interested in education and in studying religion in a sincere effort to learn its personal value to him." There is also no such thing as a "bible belt" in America. say religious leaders and publishers of bibles and bible-study courses, who have been making an analysis of the reasons for the steady increase in bible sales since the world war. Sales statistics so far gathered disclose that the city is just as good a market for religious items as the town. The increased interest in religious study with the bible as its center, is demonstrated by the constant growth of the "Family Altar League," a nonsectarian organization which encourages parents to gather their children around them in the home for religious instruction or prayer," says John Meredith, Chicago, secretary of the league which now is backed by many well-known business men throughout the United States. "Almost 17 million bibles and tens of thousands of bible-study courses were sold in the United States last year," states G. E. Bogart, commissioner of the bible societies, who has been gathering the business statistic of the survey, "and 1029 promises to smash all previous records. The increased use of bibles in hotel rooms is the final confirmation of these facts, says Fred Fulton, Minnesota, the successful automotive equipment manufacturer who also is international president of the Gideon society supplying bibles gratis to hotels. "We find no difficulty now in sitting hotels to let us supply a bottle or even a cup," he says. "The bible is getting to be sturdy, equipment is the element to which it is used, proves it is growing more popular ever." "one Bible house alone has seventy-five thousand representatives and distributing channels this year more than one-third of which will be actively selling bibles the entire year through the 1928 leaf of the Bible, and some small courses, the majority in the ales and houses." Sunday School Lesson The closing book of the Old Testament reveals the general nature and spiritual condition of the Chosen Nation about 100 years ago. Temple was rebuilt and altar worship established again in Jerusalem there had been considerable material prosperity. But mechanism had resulted in mere formality in their approach unto Jerusalem. As in earlier times of depression their God sent them another voice to call them back to Him. The meaning of Malachi is "My Messenger," and such was this last prophet to have his record in the Old Covenant. Read through this book of four chapters. First wrong doing in the priesthood is concerned. Then the people are told of their general and specific sins. Safety is assured only as righteousness is followed. People must deal justly with all their neighbors and be lovingly obedient unto the laws of the Most High. A better day was always before His people. From of old there had been the promise of the coming of the Messiah. Now the approach is meridied, though the exact time is both unstated and even distant. Special preparation was always made when any monarch was about to pass through the land, and it was even more fitting to get ready for the Anointed One. The utterance the work of John the Baptist, the immediate戎erman is declared, but all the people are exhorted to be ready for "the Lord will suddenly come to his temple." Cleansing as by fire would naturally be in the mind of the Hebrew and the simile of burning away the dress until the refiner's image could be discerned in the vessel was used. The misery of today would give place to the joy of tomorrow in that new day. In fact, it was God's love that saved them in the midst of their continuing sins. Specifically, they were reminded that they were even robbing God when they pretended to turn over the customary title and yet retained part of it for their own use. This indicated a divided heart in which God was not fully enthroned. Not to be mechanical but rather to indicate by action that the heart was right they were urged to “bring the whole title into the storhouse.” Such stewardship was needed to give the priest a religious no matter what his profession should give both proportionate system and system for the for some other minimum.

Horseradish infusion is made by pouring a cup of boiling water on two tablespoons of freshly ground horseradish. Parsley infusion is ‘made in the same way. Cool, strain, mix them and use together. To remove a deep tan try this stronger preparation: Mix magnesia and rosewater into a paste. Leave it ‘on the skin from 15 to 20 minutes and wash off with water softened with oatmeal or almond meal. The ‘oatmeal may be thrown loose into the water or tied into a little cheesecloth bag.

Use ‘one part of lime water to two parts of oil, adding about five percent boric acid, For severe cases of freckles and tan that do not respond to this treat- ment, procure a reputable freckle or bleaching cream and use according to ie “Wuug Nuberepten p, gogo Of Bier ¢ Gee mare an renee ae an ae oe ee ae =cTARLISHED RECORD HARD TO BEAT ap Wl Sa ee oe 4 gh ates see se aoe ef ote / = . | 5 jf : | «iar we ae | eve | SS eae igen teaemaa : ee ene pit ak C oe oy | NN oe :. ties < ae : ~~ ° et : = ee ened : ~g er A es ws hy: Sho.

But the bird with the broken pinion Never soared as high again. I found a young life broken By sin's seductive art, And touched with a Christ-like pity I took him to my heart; He lived with a nobler purpose, And struggled not in vain. But the life that sin had stricken Never soared as high again. But the bird with a broken pinion Kept another from the snare, And the life that sin had stricken Raised another from despair; Each loss has its own compensation, There's healing for each pain. But the bird with the broken pinion Never soared as high again. Mandolin VIOLIN Tenor Banjo Guitar Cornet 'cello Saxophone OLIVER T. WILLIAMS' Music Studio 510 NORTH THIRD ST.

Dennett, H. D. Read, J. K. Smith, C. V. Haecker, Back: J. E. L. Menchion, T. V. Parke, L. C. Hilton, G. O. Younger and Robert E. Potter. Once again aviation has proved a time-over and great convenience to big business. This time, when the 406th chain-store of one of the world's greatest mall-order houses was opened in Rhinelander, Wis., a journey of many hours by land travel, several executives of Montgomery Ward & Co flew the distance from Chicago to Rhinelander in less than three hours. At the request of civic leaders of Rhinelander, nine officials of the mail-order plant attended the opening of the new store in the Wisconsin city. Two special Universal planes were placed at the disposal of the Ward officials by the Rhinelander official committee. Taking off at the municipal airport in Chicago recently, C. V Haecker, assistant manager of chain-store displays, D. L. Menchion, manager of the Ward hosiery department; R. E. Potter, divisional merchandise manager; R. C. Hilton, territorial sales promotion superintendent; H. D. Dennett, H. D. Read, J. K. Smith, T. V. Parke and G. O. Younger flew to Rhinelander for the opening of the new store. An official reception was accorded the Chicago business men when they landed, and prominent Rhinelander citizens, headed by Eros Elkon, emplitist and civile leader, feted the Ward executives during their stay in the city. "Our trip demonstrated the feasibility of air flights by the Montgomery Ward & Co organization." Mr. Elkon after he returned to Chicago times we have occasion to visit many of the more than 400 Ward chain and department stores, and formerly our travels by train required considerable time away from our desks.
