to rear children in a crowded town

is in the country.
In Macon County, Alabama, the
co1ored people have a rare and ex-
ceptional opportunity. This is the
county in which The Tuskegee Nor
NAL and Industrial Institute is To-
Gated. There is plenty of good land
for sale on easy terms. There is a
good schoolhouse, and the school
term lasting from seven to eight
months in every part of the county.
The white people iii Macon County
are of the very best class. There IS
no disorder or racial trouble. We
advise colored people who are now
living in crowded towns or cities,
in the North or in the South, and es-
pecially those who have children to
raise to come to Macon County and
buy a home where they can get plen-
ty of land to cultivate and rear their
families in the county free from the
temptations of the cities and towns.

And vet the farmers of the country

H-year-old Russian gypsy. who, 1t is al

Tetha Pearson, in Boston, two years

detectives. Mrs. Lucas was arrested and
will be given hearing today.
The Lucases admit the girl is Mrs,
Pearson's child, but claim they bought
her for $780, Mrs. Pearson denies this,
as does the girl, who says she was coax
ed away by a promise to take her to a
nickel show. t--.-
"They made me work hard, doing wash
ing, because I was not old enough to
tell fortunes" the girl said. 81 am so
glad to get back to my mother. I tried
often to get away but they always
watched. In the first winter after
was stolen, we went to Europe. Two
weeks ago we came to Chicago. learned
from little children that my mother and
brother were here and several times
tried to reach them, but was brought
back"
Hostilities are expected between the
Russian gypsies living near State and
56th streets, to whom the girl belongs,
and the gypsies living in the vicinity Of
LOOMS and 65th street.
