association and his able committee OF
management are to be congratulated
on the fine financial results of the as
ISOLATION for 1918. The receipts for
the year as given In the report are
$5,3S4.49. This is remarkably good

business thrift Of Secretary Bullock

committee of management. Under the
present management the organization
has grown large in numbers and has
an equipment equal to any similar as

THE ONE SURE WAY TO GET ON.

THE ONE SURE WAY TO GET ON.
Alexander L. Jackson may be Of.
fered as Exhibit A" in proof that Op.
portunity plays no favorites.
Alexander lives in Englewood, N. j.,
is % years old and is Negro. While
he was mere kid his father died,
forcing Alexander to work to help sup.
port the widow. He sold papers, tend
ed furnaces, moved lawns, did what.
ever he could, meanwhile studying in
spare moments.
He worked his way through high
school, graduating with honor. He
worked his way through the prep
school, made the track team, won a
scholarship and was orator of his
class. Then he went to Harvard,
where he took honor after honor; and
next June, when he graduates, he will
once more be otaror Of his class.
Alexander intends to devote his life
to helping his race. He has what
seems to us the right idea Of how to
help it-he believes that the colored
brother must up-build himself by edu.
cation and industry until he has h ~
own respect and the respect Of his
neighbors. When he gets that far
along. the rest Of the journey ought to
be easy.
The career Of this Negro boy is q
challenge to boys of all colors. He
didn't wait for charity or uplift or
patronage-he hustled. II is the one
sure way to get on. Omaha Daily

EDDYTORIUL ON ADvG.

We wisht to goodness we could
educate the folks of Bingville q
visinitty the turrible awful value OF
advertising in the Bugle more than
they do at present.
Being as this is somethink which
ort to be teached in our midst we
think we will write a eddytoriul
about it. SO here goes:
If 'Bingville folks reu1ized the
big value which advg would be to
them and would conduck theirselfs
according by inserting a advt OF
their bizness, whatever it might be,
in the Bugle every wk from one
years end to tother it is our opin-
yum that they would all become
rich beyond the fondest dreams OF
avarise.
| What has made some Of the
most sucksessfull merchants in this
country, we ask? Advg. we anser.
If it haddent been for the vai,ie Of
newspaper advg. many a merchant
who went into bizness with higf,
hopes in his hart would of gone. to
smash and to the dogs, and tic
sheriff would of tackt the label OF
lbankrupsy on his door. and s!1,lt
him up for good and all and like
as not clapped him in jail. But be
cuz he went and advertised now he
is rich and prosperous and's got Sc
blamed mulch money he. don't
know what to do with same.
Take Hen Weathersby, for in
stants. Why don't Hen advertise
more in the Boogle than he does
The only time Hen advertiscs is
when he has a lot of ole riffraf &
Junk on his. hands that has clut-
tered up the store for so long thai
he wants to git shet of it, and Their
he puts in a ad for one wk only.
| As a result he sells off all his ole
goods and then he sets down salts
lfide and folds his hands and wait:
| for a yr or two like as not before
advertising agin. If Hen woule
keep right on advg wk after wk HI
wouldn't spend so mulch of hi!

waiting for trade and wearing on
