DIR. THEO. SMITH

Possibly no man stands higher in
the esteem and regard in which he
is held by those who know him as a
business man, a gentleman and a real
philanthropist than does DR.. Theodore
Smith, the well known druggist, whose
place of business is 1901 East 18th
street. While DR.. Smith is modest
and u~nassuming in his philanthropy,
yet he is continually doing something
that demonstrates his l%argeness of
heart and his deep concern for his
people, He maintained for several
years a free clinic for the deserving
poor. He sends his check to a number
of ministers of the city annually to
assist them in their work. He sends
kindling and coal to a number of poor
and needy families and neighbors
when it is bitterly cold. He was the
first man to send his check to Allen
chapel in their recent Mems rally. He
is the constant contributor TO the Old
Folks and Orphans home. He has
been one of the most loyal and consis-
tent supporters of Negro newspapers.
He is a member of Amos Johnson
lodge of Free Masons and stands high
in business and social circles. He is
a member of the Ivanhoe club, the
leading social organization of the city,
and, to epitomize. he is a booster for
all good things and a knocker for all
that's bad. The Sun is proud of the
splendid record made by DR.. Theodore
Smith in the years he has resided in
our community.

Melinda Lewis, the centenarian. who
claims that old age is a sign that
you have behaved tolerably well or
you would not have lived to reach it.
1t was our happy lot to spend some
time in her company recently. De-
spite her infirmities she radiates low
ing kindness and the spirit of worship
and trust is in every action and word.
AS has been her custom, Aunt Melinda

her repown, "the white ANGEL al

for her with horses of flame to draw
her up the steps of heaven?
