should he carry out his intention Of
going to Philadelphia to compete in
the University of Pennsylvania relay
carnival beginning tomorrow. This de-
eision was reached by the faculty at a
special meeting.
A gala day for Mr.. A. B. Hullett,
at Ebenezer Baptist Church, S5th and
Dearborn Streets Sunday being special
guest to address the Mothers Union,
at 3 p. N. and The Star Literary at
a P. NJ. an unusual honor given to a
public speaker. Mr.. Hullett was the
Chief of the Colored voter 8 department
of Mr.. VIM. Hale Thompson's campaign
which makes his message the more in
teresting to the Colored people.
Mr.. Hullett when introduced to the
Mothers Union meeting said, al don I
know what that means but if it has any
thing to do with mothers then i want
to say to you that the only way to test
a gentleman is by the way the demon
strates his love for his mother. I am
here doing my Christian duty, 1 bring
you a message from Bill Thompson. Be
ieving as I do that you are going to
have a typical Christian gentleman for
mayor, I know that il is the one thing
certain that he feels the needs of Chr
eago, and deep down in his heart he
feels the needs of the ColOred people.
1 know that he feels grateful to the
Colored people for the hearty support
you gave him and / am certain that
you will not be forgotten. 1 believe
that You will in the near future re-
joiee by having a member upon the
school board and one upon the civil
service board, there may be something
required uI'n your part to make this
,ity a prosperous one and be called
upon to help the mayor to make his
q success. We ought to
have q home guard to act voluntary

without pay, for God and Humanity. |
When there was a little more love for
one another than there is today. The
trouble about our boys and our girls |

and any fathers they are too
'usy engaged with the days business
struggling to make a living we must
'rganize to bring prosperity to our

A Thought for the Wssk.


We had four pairs of shoes to be re-
paired the other day and we took them
to Colored shoe shop. The shoemaker
had caught up with his work and had
nothing to do. We told him that We
wanted quick job done, so he inspected
the shoes and declared that they were
not worth fixing; that he could not tx
them; and we thought what he said
was true. But we happened to pass a
White man IS shop and so we asked him
If the shoes were worth mending; he
replied eyes" and in less than two
and half hours he had the four pairs
Of shoes mended and the amount Of two
dollars in his pocket When we passed
back by the Negro shop, he had locked
up and was standing out in the sun with
his hands in his pockets waiting for a
job, as he called it, and declaring that
the times were dull and that he could
get no work to do. The White man
had plenty of work to do, was making
money hand over fist, only two hundred
yards away from the Negro, because
he had can eye to business. "-Edito-
