BOARD PLANS
SWIMM|N FOR KID
Body Meets in Own Rooms
First Time in History
of South Bend.

For the first time since the com
mission of the park board was grant
ed it met in 1t own room. Formerly
it had occupied the rooms Of the
board of works The new home is
located in the room once used by the
council committee of the whole.
which has been newly finished and
furnished.
The board instructed Mr.. Perley
to continue with the construction of
the retaining wall on the west shore
of the river at Leeper park, and also
TO complete the grading of the road
along the Woods tract.
Various plans were considered for
the construction of swimming pool
hollow just west of the center of
the park. Its feasibility was first of
all under discussion and. since the
plans If the engineers have not yet
been submitted, it is impossible 70
decide with accuracy whether the
pool can be constructed or not.
The youngsters of the neighbOr-
hood have with nice ingenuity laid
dam at one Of the narrow parts
OF the Bowman creek to form a
swimming pool such as Briggs likes
TO picture. In the murky brown
waters held by the sand bags the
kids are having the time of their
lives.
There is a splendid appearing nat
ural ravine just a short distance from
this pool which the park board will
attempt to turn into a big pool 10
supplant the present one. At present
the city engineers have the project
under consideration.

NATIONAL RACE MAGAZINE
ANNOUNCES ITS PURPOSE
Periodical Published at Nashville
Tenn, Embodiss Many Features.

Nashville, Tenn.-For a number Of
years the Negro race has been in need
Of high class secular magazine-not
one Of the fire eating variety. but one
sober In thought, whose editorial tone
and character would be above reproach;
q magazine whose editorials would be
clean, instructive and yet not be drawn
into controversies that would tend to
harm and not help the race.
The National Negro Magazine COM
pany Of this city is putting out just
such magazine in monthly period
ical called the Brown Book. This book
does not enter into controversies. It is
not q yellow journal, neither is it red.
Articles are appearing in it each month
from the pen Of leading thinkers and
writer's Of the race on leading topics Of
the day. For instance, beginning with
the May issue 1t takes up a series of
articles expressing the different views
Of the races leading thinkers on the
following all important subjects:
First.-Should the United States be-
come involved in the great European
war together with her present troubles
in Mexico it will mean that this gov
eminent must call for 100000 volun-
teers. In view Of the present discrimi-
mating laws and mob violence will the
Negro enlist and what will or would be
his attitude?
Second.-What is segregation as ap.
piled to the Negro as a race? Does 1t
help or hinder? If so, how and why?
Third.-The great Baptist denomina.
ton has been split and rent in twain.
What were the causes leading up to
this and why?
In this article secrets will be told
and facts printed that have not hereto
fore been brought to light. Together
with the thorough discussion of current
events the Brown Book carries a short
story department, an editorial page, a
fashion department for women show.
ing the latest creations in dress.
All Of these departments are covered
by experts in their particular line. 1t
is indeed refreshing to read a high
class strictly Negro publication such as
the Brown Book. 1t is a valuable ad.
dition to the races literary output.
The Brown Book is q kind of Liter.
ary Digest and Forum. It simply states
the facts in the case, allowing its read
ers to get from these facts what they
want, putting them in a position to
draw their own conclusion.

ION TO BALTIMORE"
From the Department of the Pres.
National Association of Colored

From the Department or the Fres.
National Association of Colored
Women's Clubs.
Easily, the greatest forward race
movement of the age is the National
Association of Colored Women's
Clubs, and the leading spirit among
them the President; Mrs. Booker T,
Washington. Emerging from the
gloom which has recently enveloped
her, she has apparently re-consecra-
ted her life to the uplift of the race,
and by her helpful messages of encour-
agement to club leaders all all over
the country is inspiring officers, de-
partment heads and members to a
greater activity than ever before been
evinced in the work.
The next Biennial will be held at
Baltimore, Nd, in August. Mrs.
Washington presiding.
This meeting bids fair to be the
most interesting in the history of the
Association. The meeting in 1912 at
Hampton was intensely interesting
and inspiring; that at Wilberferce in
1914 was wonderful and far reaching
in its effects - a wonderful group of
women, showing a remarkable insight
in the philosophy of life and demon
strating a constructive ability which
portends wonderful results in the next
few years.
"On to Baltimore" is the slogan of
every race organization of women,
and where the women are the men
will likewise be found.
By courtesy of the editor I shall
from time to time issue information
through the columns of this paper,
relative to the great Biennial at Bal
timore in August.
