RACE PROBLEM HELD MYTH {"
Maj John R. Lynch Declares Pref
udices ALWAYS Will Continue.

That the ''so-called race problem "
is more myth than fact was claimed by
Mai John r. Lynch. paymaster, U. s.
A.. retired. in an address at the Met
ropolitan A. M. E. Church Tuesday even
ing, under the auspices of the Bethel Lit
erary and Historical Association Miss
Marie A. D. Madre. president of the
organization, presided Maj. w. T. An
derson of Ohio, chaplain. U. S. A, re-
tired, introduced the speaker.
Mai Lynch said that race prejudice
Is as old as human nature and will al
ways continue as long as peoples in
habit the earth. He said that the con-
ditions of the negro race in this coun-
try have improved greatly during the
last fifty years. He urged that all
citizens should vote, ir-
respective of color. "a man who does
not care what is done or left undone is
not a good citizen" he said.
Following the address of Maj. Lynch
brief talks were made by Judge Robert
H. Terrell of the Municipal Court,

that will assure them of living wage
The minimum wage Is bad name. -
said Miss Falk today. in regard to the
campaign. I'VE ought to call it the
living wage, for surely no employer
ought to pay less than enough to live
on. And he who wants to pay living
wage is held back by him who refuses,
hence the necessity for living-wage

Fool Fashions

In summertime the girl wore
furs, which must have been dis
tressing. and much discomfort
then was hers, or | am badly
guessing. | well remember Susan
Jane wrapped up in seal and
ernine, when everything upon
the plain in sizzling heat was
squirmin. And yet she uttered
no complaint, most martyrlike OF
creatures, although the heat dis
solved her paint till it ran down
her features. Some brand-new
fad in winter wear she'll spring,
we well may trust her; when biz
yards frolic she will bear ian and
linen duster. Well see her i'll the
bowling storm, a simple flynet
round her, and she will say she is
quite warm, when snow and hail
stones pound her. Girls would
commit. in fashions name. all
crimes, clear up to treason; at her
decree the modern dame abandons
sense and reason. (And here the
hausfrau says to me. The men are
just as silly: they'll go as far, at
styles decree, as any blooming
filly. The hat you wear gives me
the blues, your shirt has gaudy
primping. you're always wearing
pointed shoes, although they keep
you limping. Your linen collar
saws your ears, your pin has plate
glass in it; you'd better quit this
handing jeers to women every
minute. WALT MASON.
