An Appeal to the White
Voters Of Marshall
School District

VI nun
conference.-the board OF Edu-
cation OF this city has submitted
at u request, a proposition ia
issue bonds in the sum OF SIS, 900
foe the purpose Of erecting a mod
ern school building for the color
ed people OF this school district "a
be voted on at the election to be
he'll 'o, the I'd d.iy of April, and
since 1t requires a two-third ma
iority OF the vote cast to carry the
proposition, we the undersigned
colored citizens Of Marshall have
selected this method n the only
avenue open TO ~, n which We
know, through which we may get
an audience with you to ask .t
your hands a favor which we most
earnestly pray you will not deny
US.
We come TO you Ia no spirit OF
arrogance or s~slf-esteem, but as
plain, common, everyday, hard
working people with the simplicity
and faith of a child to ask those
OF you who may have some SYM
pathy for US as a weakened and
struggling race earnestly desir-
ing and striving to better the fu-
ture conditions OF our children to
vote tI favor OF this proposition.
We feel and believe 4 modern
school building here for tn. ac-
commodatio, OF our children, Ia
which they would be given some
maoaaI training along the lines OF
domestic science and mechinical
art would do much to improve
their lack Of habit o; isius.ry
and would strengthen the moral
fiber, not only OF the children, but
OF the race az a whole.
We further believe that neat and
tidy surroundings will have that
effect upo1 our children which
will make for good citizenship,
thereby reducing to a lower de-
gree the number OF crimes annual
ly committed In our mids..
Without your assistance We
know we a accomplish nothing
In the way OF improving the con-
ditiou Of our school; but we are
relying upon our faith and belief
that you have some Interest In
our welfare as colored citizens In
your midst, and that you will help
us In any praise-worthy and hon.
es. effort TO better our condition
ala to raise higher the moral and
industrial efficiency OF our people
az a race IN your community.
Trusting to God that you will
hear our petition and grant our
prayer, we most respectfully sub
scribe our names hereunto.

Anty Drudge Tells How to Avoid

Ethel"Oh manual Harold put his hand into the boiling
water in the washtub and scalded it just awfully.
Anty Drudoe-"Just as I told you. Boiling clothes is
dangerous as well as wasteful If you would use

time, money and hard work and there wouldn't be
any danger of the children getting scaded."
Hot weather is bad enough without a

clothes.
There is better way.
Fels-Naptha soap will cleanse your
clothes in cool or lukewarm water, without
boiling or hard rubbing, in summer or
winter.

the time and make your clothes sweeter,
cleaner and whittier.
And the clothes will wear longer.

ATHLETICS LOSE
PENNANT RACE
Phils Play Careless Ball and
Can Hope for Second
Place Only.
CONNIE BEATEN
Admits His Defeat But Will!
Fight Gamely to the
Finish.

Philadelphia, Sept. 4.-The best tho
worlds champions can hope for this
year is second place, and to gain that
position the Athletics will have to
play at top speed every. minute OF
the time, for Clarke Grifith also has
his ambitions.
The clean sweep of the Red Sox in
the three games in Boston drove the
last nail in the coffin Of the Athletics
hopes.
The road trip started with the Ath-
!etics sure they could clean up Boston
and Washington and possibly slip into
first place If the long expected slump
of the Boston team materialized.
But the veteran twirlers upon
whom everything depended proved
easy for the crimson hosed tribe to
solve. and it will be the Boston fans
who watch their representatives bat
tie for the American league in the
worlds series.
All Failed.
Coombs. Plank and Bender all fail
ed to bring home even a single game.
The best performance was the
sharp duel Coombs. who came back
Saturday after losing the first game
of the series, had with Buck"
O'Brien. This time the pitching hon-
ors were even, but the Athletics
failed to hit in the timely manner
We used to see last year.
This has been true most of the
season, and added too heavy a load
to the work of the weakened pitch
ing staff.
Connie Mack himself admits hope
is gone. but declares he will fight to
the finish in order to try to beat our
Washington.
However, there will be plenty Of
opportunities to try out young talent.
even at that, and the two new regu-
Jars. Murphy and Walsh. will be there
to get valuable seasoning.
AS for the Phillies. they don't
care" and unless they put more pep
per into their play they will lose their
position in the first division.
Much Expected.
|. More than that. much is expected
in h seven games to be played with
New York this week. and they will
have no chance to stop the National
league leaders and help beat them
out of a pennant unless they get to-
gether and show better baseball than
they did in the series with the Braves.
The fans will not take it kindly if
New York. this week, is able to re-
peat the work they did early in the
season. Then there was the excuse
of injuries to stars. What is there
now?
Last week in n instance the Phil
lies failed to secure a run on two
doubles in succession. In another in
stance the moth-eaten hidden ball
trick was resurrected long enough to
make them look foolish.
Again they fell for that old stall of
a player Of the opposing team calling
for the ball and then letting it roll t.
the stand. To cap the climax Sat-
urday one player forgot the first prin-
ciple of the game and did not touch
first base on what was easily a dou-
BILE.
To put it charitably that is GER
tainly playing careless baseball.
1t will take a better game than
that to make the games with New
games.
