Ohio Editor Likes SpitzenburgS.

When talking of apples you should
push your teeth into one of those
Spitzenburg apples grown by the Beal
brothers out in the Hood River Valley,
Oregon. Perry brought one layer in a
crate with him when he and his mother
came from Oregon some days ago. The
apples were on exhibition in the win
dow of the Johns grocery, and
attracted much attention. We were
lucky enough to be invited to eat one
of the apples and we can now, after
due deliberation, pronounce them the
finest ever. Dresden, Ohio, Tran

Though not the oldest in years,
Henry L. Vinegar is perhaps the old
est barber in point, of service in Min
neapolis. Certainly, he is the best
known and most popular artist of his
craft in his home city.
Mr.. Vinegar is an earnest advocate
of publicity, and through the public
prints, keeps his name and his bust
ness ventures continually in the pub
lie eye.
A few years ago he determined to
enter into the Real Estate and Rental
Business. In spite of the many dis
couragements attending his way into
this new and untried field, he perse-
vered and has succeeded to crafty
ing degree. A number of important
deals in dirt and a growing rental
business have lent him encourage
ment and he has in prospect large
increase in facilities for caring for
this line
Mr.. Vinegar is himself a property
owner, possessing a valuable home
stead on the outskirts of the city,
where he INDUCES his passion for
chicken raising.
Mr.. Vinegar is a progressive and
up-to-date citizen, and his example in
encouraging other young men to en-
bark in business ventures is beyond
compare.

GEORGE HOLBERT.

Among the prominent young men
of Minneapolis, who are not identified
in business way with the city's
growth, but who by intelligence and
consistent, faithful service, add dig
nifty to the ordinary avenues of the
working men, Mr.. George Holbert is
easily in the lead.
Early in life he studied for the law.
The. result of that training is shown
to-day in his keen, analytical mind, his
easy flow of convincing English, and
in his ability to quickly grasp an ad-
vantage for his fellow Workingmen.
Possessing physical characteristics
which enable him to be taken for any
thing but an Afro-American, he has
ever, like true race man, thrown his
lot in with his people, At various
times he has filled the position of ad-
vance agent to road shows, and here
his gifts of mind and person rendered
him especially valuable. His inter-
ests at home caused him to refuse a
similar position with the civilians
and Walker Company" when that or
ganiZation was in it's zenith.
Mr.. Holbert is we'll known in the
Forum and other societies devoted to
his peoples uplift, where his ready
eloquence and skill in debate is in
frequent demand

Today it's snowy linen, bright cut

neatly dressed and intelligent wait
resses, lend it charm not surpassed
by the best the city affords. The
place was named in honor of Senator
FORAKER, whose sincere friendship for
the Atro-American people has won the
enduring regard of mine host Rut-
ledge. Mr.. Rutledge brings to his
work the invaluable experience gained
IN his years of employment as chef
on private cars, a knowledge of the
wants fhis people, the desire to
serve them we'll and spirit of good
fellowship that is never failing. Mr..
hutledge is race man in the best
sense-always looking for advance
ment; never begrudging the constant
labor necessary to achieve it. At the
Foraker, in addition to the usual daily
papers. The leading race journals and
magazines from all over the country
may be found on sale. Increasing bust
ness has fastened Mr.. Rutledge's in
tentions to seek new quarters, where
his ideas of expansion may be real
lied. He has secured a lease of the
commodious and centrally located
rooms at 81 Fourth avenue south,
where shortly the Foraker will be pre-
pared better than before to serve it's
old patrons and meet new ones.

1t requires lots of room to present
the Davis name in full, just as lots
of room is required to present all of
the Davis physique, but Mr.. Davis is
a big man, not only in name and body,
but big in his business ambitions and
in those activities which make for
valued citizenship.
Long ago he resolved to become his
own employer. Saving the money
earned in several summers of work
at the Yellowstone Park, he invested
it in Minneapolis in modest wood

to the business resulted in it's grad
ual growth. A number of teams were
added to the equipment the teaming
business entered into, a street sprink-
Ter and route secured. Today the
greater part of Mr.. Davis time is
given to the supervision of the men
who carry on his work.
Mr.. Davis is some power in the
local political field. His level-headed
counsel is often sought by the leaders
of his party. In the church he is a
prominent member. Big-hearted and
fair-minded, his strength is pillar
upon which that organization can ever
lean
Mr.. Davis is married and has an
interesting family. He possesses in
addition to his business, real property
of growing value.

Tomorrow, will count the millions of

van, it's capable president Likewise,
to speak of Mrs. Donavan invites at
tenticn to the Minneapolis Charity
Club. In the minds of those who
know them both, they are inseparably
mingled.
In the field Of organized effort in
which the women of the day are de-
voting so much of their time and
study, the Minneapolis Charity Club
has taken an advanced and an agrees
sive position. In keeping with the
best accepted methods, it has reduced
the distribution of it's charities to a
system through which the needy are
helped, and the unworthy are exposed
and denied.
The VigOr of it's work owes much
to the genius for organization of it's
OF commanding presence and winning
personality, combining strength of
! character with charming suavity.
Through her efforts the society has
been brought into working contact
with the city's charitable department,
and also with other accredited ave-
nues by which the poor are reached
! The practical success of this work,
the old men and women fed and
clothed, the sick visited in the hos
pitfalls, the little children taken from
the streets and sent to school, the
young girls helped to places where
maintenance and self-respect are
equally possible-these have not only
drawn the attention and won the ad-
! miration of the people but have in no
small measure won a new apprecia-
ton for the possibilities of organized
AfrO-American WOmanhOod
AS the head and directing force of
this helpful organization, Mrs. Dona-
van has often been called into con-
, sultation with the women of the other
, race, whose club work enters the same
field of philanthropic effort. It is con-
fidently predicted that the Mime
apolis Charity Club and it's president,
Mrs. Mamie Donavan, will have a
! commanding place in the future of the
Afro-American people of Minnesota.
Mrs. Donavan has the distinction
of being the only Afro American mem
