How many of US realize how much
the other fellow can help US achieve
what we are working for?
How many of US realize how much
we will help ourselves by boosting our
competitor instead of knocking him?
To those of us who do not, the
above picture, from Armour, will carry
its own message. No amount of rea-
soning or logic could show any more
clearly and definitely just what CO.
operation means.
Let's all apply it to our own busi-
ness this year and wait for results.
NEGROES, STUDY THIS PICTURE.
THEN ACT.
| The Star prints the above lesson in
order to convince some of the most
| skeptical Negroes of Denver and Colo
RADIO, as we'll as elsewhere, what it
will mean for ten millions Of Negroes
whose minds, hearts, objects, pur-
poses, ambitions and work are dog
gedly set up on one certain thing
elimination of all caste, prejudice and
inequality for every one-or certain
things of uplift to humanity, and what
unified action can do. This lesson
applies to Negroes who patronize
others than their own in business
even II you OF tney QOnt ike tne
man or men running in business
Patronize him or his competitor oi
color. Every nickel taken from the
business and professional man of colol
only weakens him and strengthens the
chains of prejudice and unfair com
petition upon your necks, besides
helping the race who least need your
help. We are our own masters. if We
would rightly and fntelligently use
what means which are ours. Think
of 100 Negroes putting 81 aside q
month in a colored company or in g
bank and buying pigs. horses, cattle
chickens, turkeys and Belgian hares
and putting those animals on the
ranches OF our Negro farmers, what
would it mean in two years to the
farmer, yourself and our Denver com
munity? A Negro auto transportation

We ought to have a central market

the market managers should devise
some means of disposing of the produce
without the aid OF a hungry horde of

Such Proof as This Should Convince

The public endorsement of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better, none stronger
can be had. When a man comes for
ward and testifies to his felloow-citi-
zens, addresses his friends and neigh
bors, you may be sure he is thorough
ly convinced or he would not do so.
Telling ones experience when it is for
the public good is an act of kindness
that should be appreciated. The fol-
lowing statement given by a resident
