EDITORS OBSERVATIONS.

For two years We editor has been
silent as to penning any observa-
tions as observed by himself. Last
year we had some well written and
concise notes by staff correspand-
ent, Edward w. Thompson. But this
year the duty is incumbent upon
the editor. to give our many readers
in the middle west the personnel of
the progressive element of our race
as is observed in each town or city
that he visits on his collecting trip.
Indeed, it is an arduous task, be-
cause we are limited to only a small
amount of space for each place,
hence we can but briefly hint at the
real things that impress us. An
other good reason for these obser-
vations is that the things we write
about we have seen and know the
facts are true, and that the progress
that one individual or town may be
making if published will be an in
centive for other individuals or
towns to do likewise. In these OBJ
servations. We shall tell only the

THE CROWN OF SUCCESS.

(From the Denver Statesman. -,
A year ago the first announcement
was made of the wonderful success
which Mrs. T. D. Perkins had made
In the growth of her own hair, and
it is her intention to give the ben
eft of her knowledge to the world
at large. Being one of the best
known women in this section of the
country, already the news OCCASION
ed much comment, and many peo-
pie who had known her for years,
came to realize for the first time
that the magnificent suit of hair she
has now was the product of very
short time and that a bare three
years ago she wore her hair in short
curls, not braided and dressed as
she now does. That success begets
success, was evident from the start.
Her classes in the care of the scalp
and the growth and identifying of
the hair were filled at once. They
grew in prodigious bounds and some
weeks ago she was compelled to
abandon her out-of-town classes al
together. She confines herself now
to treatments at her home in the
Highlands and to mail order busi-
ness.
In the special articles which will
appear from time to time in this pa
per, we delight to call attention to
success in various lines achieved by
people of this city and state. both .
that there may be honor paid to
whom honor is due, and also that
proper appreciation and patronage
may come to pioneers in business
among us. Personal profit for them
selves and example and encourage
ment for us all go hand in hand in
success won by members Of our race.
Even the mean spirited should not
begrudge the one when so much is
accomplished for the whole people at
the same time.
In her business Mrs. Perkins does
not play the part of q charlatan. but
sets forth clearly the possibilities Of
her work, and her greatest endorse
ment falls short Of the painstaking
endeavor and thorough going knows
edge she uses. We have seen her
srow and grow, we know that abe
has succeeded and we, therefore.
predict that in no great length Of
time she will be doing q business
that will rival any mail order busi-
ness conducted by a woman OF orr
race IN any department Of endaavor,

Our next stop was Creston. Here
we only had about two hours to
stay. Mr.. G. F. Burnaugh was the
first colored man met. He is the
head porter for the largest hotel,
and was at the depot. Charley is
an old citizen here, having been in
the employ of this company for a
quarter of century. His health is
not quite so well as has been. Mr..

finest gardens that we have seen
this year. About two and one
half acres of his own land right

is still working for store and has
nice well kept home of several
acres in the suburb of the city. He
is true intelligent race man. With
in two miles of the city lives a very
successful farmer named the Bald
win brothers, three in number. They
live with their mother and are
farming on the largest scale of any
colored men we have met yet. They
own eighty acres and have All acres
rented, paying cash rent. They
have 120 acres of corn out. 80
acres of oats, % head of horses, IS
head of cattle and 95 head of pigs.
They have been here many years and
are the kind of young men who are
indeed helping to solve the race
problem. Only that we had more
of our young men that would take
to farming. One OF their sisters is

Our next stop was Clarinda. Here
we found most of the colored peo-

own their homes and work on farms
adjacent to the city. Mr.. Allen Jones
who for several years has been
blacksmithing in Buxton, has re-
turned to his home and he is en-
ployed in a large blacksmith shop.
They have some very valuable prop

Mr. H. H. Cook and Thos. Dunn

that only about per cent of their

other are white people. Colored
people patronize those young men

HER.

Denver, Col, April 20, 1909.
To Whom it May Concern:
find it pleasure to say word
in praise Of Madam Perkins, and her
remarkable success in scientific scalp
treatment.
Madam Perkins, for many years a
resident of Denver, is an active
member of Zion Baptist church, and
one of the most favorably known
women in our state. The beautiful
hair of hundreds of women in our
city and other parts of the state is
a tribute to her phenomenal success
in her profession. The wonderful
growth of her own hair is most
remarkable testimony. I cheerful1y
recommend her to all ladies who may
be interested in the growing and
identifying of the hair.
Respectfully,
