Ex-Congressman
G.. w. Murray.

Elk Congress sman hurry, of S.
Carolina, is making tour thru
this state, lecturing on Race
Ideals.' We are sorry to report
that he had very small audience
here and are inclined to believe
that the small crowd was due to
the fact that there was no adver-
tisement of the man, who he is
or what he has done: not even
where he was TO speak. 1t is
high time that we learn the value
of advertisement.
The old ante bellum method of
passing the news around by
mouth is not sufficient. Every
thing should be literally adver-
tised. The church that advertis-
es-iS not too stingy to pay out
few cents for publicity-is always
the most prosperous aud flourish
ing church.

Good Conduct on
The Streets and
in Public Places

We feel our bounden duty to
admonish the young people in
particular and all people in gen.
era, against bad conduct on the
streets and in public places.
Good conduct and good man
ners are cheap and yet the most
valuable asset one can possess.
Time and again we have entreat
ed colored people to conduct
themselves in such a manner as
to get the good comments Instead
of the bad ones. Remember
where you are and do not over
look the fact that there are other
people on the car and on the
streets besides yourself; also re.
member that people are Judging
you and the race by your con
duct. You are only sample.
Please try to be good one; but
this training should begin at
