WASHINGTON IS THE SEAT OF OUR
NATIONS GOVERNMENT.

The eyes of the world are on Washington.
One-third of Washington's population is
Negro.
If all the Negroes in Washington were colon
lied in one place they would make city larger
than Richmond, Virginia.
There are seven theatres in Washington,
supported by a white population of 24I,e23-
and few foolish Negroes willing to be colon
ICED in the galleries, the only place to which the
Negro is admitted.
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE FIRST
CLASS OFFICE BUILDING in the city of
Washington, where Colored professional
business woman, and there are hun
dreds of them in the National Capital, can OBJ
tain business quarters.
JUST THINK OF IT! 100, 900 enterprising,
thrifty, intelligent people, through race preju-
dice, swept completely out of the business dis
trict of Washington; 100000 genteel, prosper
Gus, amusement loving people deprived of
every form of theatrical entertainment unless
willing to submit to the most humiliating con-
ditions.
Every Colored man and woman IN Wash
ington.
Every coIored man and woman VISITING
Washington.
Every colored man and woman in America,
familiar with the true state of the Negro in
Washington, realizes that theatre, store, and
Office building, operated by the Negroes, for the
Negroes, is A NECESSITY.
The welfare of the race demands it.
The self-respeCt of the race demands it.
Amy enterprise resting its hope of success
upon a NECESSITY is bound to be a sue
CESS.
THEATRE AND OFFICE BUILDING
IN THE CITY OF WASHINGTON, built by
Negroes for the use of Negroes is NECES-
SITY.
Approaching to the utmost that fact
THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL BUILDING
COMPANY proposes to erect IN the Central
Business District of the city Of Washington a
magnificent theatre, seating capacity 500, and
store and Office building of splendid proper
ton, adequate in every respect to meet the re-
quirements of prosperous professional and bust
ness men.
The enterprise is exceptional in two respects:
F1rst-It is absolutely safe.
Second-It promises enormous possibilities
as a money maker.
Features that must appeal to every man or
woman with few dollars to invest, and you
are such or woman OF you would not
have read this far.
THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL BUILD
ING COMPANY has surveyed the field care
fully, and it KNOWS that hundreds of tenants
are available Tor the offices, that dozens of
merchants ready to rent the stores, and
that 100000 people are anxious to patronize
the theatre exclusively, and make it the best

paying amusement place in America.
IT KNOWS ALL THIS AND IT IN
VITES YOU TO PARTICIPATE in an en-
terprise ABSOLUTELY DEVOID OF RISK,
where every dollar will be invested in the best
of Washington Real Estate, that increases IN
value annually at the rate OF SIS per cent
nearly DOUBLE bank interest.
Even that IS good enough for most people,
but the LINCOLN MEMORIAL BUILDING
COMPANY will do better than that. 1t will
have Offices and stores and lodge rooms, which
will earn, on a conservative estimate, at least
$4,000 per year. Equal to 5 9-Io per cent per
annum.

IT IS THE NEW EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION

ING COMPANY is ENTIRELY NEGRO.
Not one dollar of white capital will be at

There is not one dollar of Promotion Stock.
consequently there is no watered stock
Every holder of stock from the President
down must pay at LEAST $1,000 per share TOR
every share of stock allotted to him.
This does not mean that the price OF stock
will REMAIN at $1,000 per share. It is $Io.oa
NOW 1t will advance in price far beyond
$1,000, just as railroad and public utility stock
goes to several times par. So will the Lincoln
Memorial Building Company's stock go to
several times its present value.
This means that share of stock costing
$1,000 NOW will be worth $4,000 when stock
goes to four times par. Estimates show that
the Companys earnings will be 20 per cent, and
that is four times par, with every dollar in
vested in Real Estate. THE BEST in the city
of Washington, where values are as firmly liked
as the Rock of Gibraltar.
This does not mean that the price of stock
will remain at $1,000 per share. 1t is $1,000
NOW. If the Company, it is estimated,
pays 20 per cent, $1,000 share of stock will be
worth $4,000. If it pays 40 per cent, single
share of $1,000 stock will be worth $1,000. Just
as railroads and public utility stocks increase
in value, so will the Lincoln Memorial Build
ing Companys stock increase in price.
The first allotment of stock at $1,000 share
is being rapidly subscribed, and the next allot-
ment will be SI2.5o per share, to which point
it will soon be advanced; therefore, you are
urged to avail yourself of the present oppor-
tunity to get in as completely the ground
floor as any one of the Company's Directors
are.
The Company's Directors by the way, are
men of sterling worth, integrity and honor, as
you possibly aware, or can easily ascertain
through any COMMERCIAL AGENCY.
Their names at the top of this page
They have unbounded faith in the future of the
Company. They have invested THEIR hard
earned money in it, and they advise you to in
vest YOUR money side by side with theirs.
DON'T WAIT UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE.
The price Of stock IS $1,000 per share, pay
able SI.0o down and SI.oo per month for nine
months upon each share subscribed for
DO IT NOW
Before you lay this paper down cut out the
coupon the lefthand corner of this page and
mail to-day with remittance for first payment,

We shall be glad at all times to give you any
further information desired, and again invite
you to join us in this enterprise.
Very truly yours,

1t will also have theatre, which, if patron
lied at prices ranging from 10 to SO cents, by
only per cent of the total colored population
of the city of Washington, will enable the Com
pany to pay Is per cent on its total capitaliza-
ton. Equal in all to 20 e-Io per cent, to which
may be added the land value increase of SIS
per cent.
Now, all this is Conservatively Estimated
Banks and Insurance Companies engage in
enterprises like this with their depositors' and
policyholders' money-YOUR money, but
YOU get only about 3 or 81 per cent. The
banks or insurance companies keep the balance.
