YOUNG GoLORED Man ENTERS
BUSINESS or HIS OWN

The opportunities that are being
given to the young colored men by
reason of the great demand, ability,
and labor of the various kinds, have
mot only caused anxiousness on their
part to enter places such as shops and
factories where trades may be learned
that they might better equip them
selves to more easily and with better
skill do the things that they will no
doubt be called upon to do in the fu-
ture, but are awakening the latent
powers and setting in motion the
skill and art which they by chance
had an opportunity to learn previ-
ously.
Among those who by good fortune
had a chance to learn much of art, is
Mr.. Jseph Burnett. the Home Portrait
Photographer, who has had many
years Of experience in this line OF
work. He has worked with some of
the leading photographers IN the
state. His experience in the work is
his recommendation. Mr. Burnett is
prepared to do any kind of home por-
trait work that any experienced work
man is able to do. Satisfaction is
absolutely guaranteed on all work.
a trial with him will convince any
one of his skill and ability in this line
of work.
Too much cannot be said, nor too
much praise given to any member of
the race, who has the ability to do
some one thing we'll, and can muster
up enough courage to attempt it.
Such one deserves our encourage
|ment and support
We are, therefore, presenting to our
people the only colored home portrait
photographer in the city, and trust
that he VIII have the hearty eoopera-
tion of all his friends and people who
have such work to be done. Engage
ments may be made BY letter. phone,

THE COLORED MANS
GREAT RECORD

Loyalty has ever been the dominat-
ing trait OF the American Negro. Our
history is full Of instances and CON
crete examples of the faithfulness of
the colnred people who are a part of
the nation. And right now it is es-
pecially interesting to discover that
through all the hustle and hustle Of
war activity, the Negroes were put
ting their shoulders to the wheel, with
fervor and patriotism that should
shame many who talked much but did
little.
Statistics just made public show
that the poverty of the colored man
IN the South did not prevent him from
doing more than his share in the War
Savings campaign. A quick and whole
hearted response was the answer of
the colored people to the call Of the
nation. Communities which had large
Negro populations made the best
showing Colored chairnen, appoint
ed to canvass among the colored peo-
pie IN their communities, doubled and
trebled their quotas inside Of twenty
four hours after the start Of the drive.
These results We're accomplished be-
cause Of the loyalty of the American
Negro. He has good cause to know
what the Stars and Stripes stand for,
and the evidence shows that the free
dom and liberty gained in the Civil
War are thoroughly appreciated. The
Negroes are American citizens, and
as such are glad and proud to share
the duties and responsibilities that are
incumbent upon citizenship Dayton

The Right Way to Figure Econom,

What you pay for a tractor does not determine
tractor economy. Often times the most Inexpensive
implement is the most costly in the end.
Economy must always be figured on a basis oe
work done. To determine this divide the purchase
price by the number of years of service. By this
measure the advance type Wallis will give you the
greatest return for your money.
Buying a tractor is a serious problem. What you
get for the money you pay will be largely guided by
the care with which you weigh the facts above be-
fore you buy.
Come in and talk with us on further details of this
tractor which is conceded by all to mark the most
advanced type of tractor construction.

this number 100000 were killed in ac-

This statement was made to the
correspondent today by salvatore
Barzilai. former member of the Ital-
ian cabinet, who accompanied King
Victor Emmanuel to Paris, in explain
ing Italy's sacrifices and her claim to
territories previously held by the enc
my Signor Barzilai said:
ION the eve of the peace confer
ence where Italy must claim the ter
ritories due her for reasons of nation
ality, it is well the world should know
the sacrifices sustained Ey her. All
Italians trust America as an impair
tial judge.
Italy lost 100000 dead. To those
actually killed in battle must be ad-
ded 100000 who died of disease, par
ticularly malaria, contracted in AL
bania, Macedonia and and along the
Piave. The Italians severely wounded
numbered 100000, while 100000 OF
the 100000 called to the colors were
taken prisoner,
THE enormity of her sacrifices
makes Italy more exacting in demand
ing restitution of the regions along
the eastern Adriatic which Austria
oppressed for a century and attempt
ed to denationalize, and also places
her in the vanguard of the movement
to prevent future wars Having once

Especial Cable Dispatch)


London Dec. 2l--A dispatch to the
Daily News from Rome under date of
December Il, says:
There is every reason TO believe
that secret negotiations toward con-
citation between the pope and Italy
have been successful and that a salts
factory settlement of the Roman ques-
ton has been reached on the basis of
remuneration of the papal claim to
temporal power,
although no details are known, it
is reported on the hest authority that
concessions made By. the government
are not incompatible with Italian
territorial unity and hence do not in
clude granting to tho none an outlet
TO the sea by the cession of the strip
of land connecting the apostolic
palaces with the shore.
THE Pope has requested President
Wilson to notify the Allied repre-
sentatives at the forthcoming prelim-
mary peace conference of the pro-
posed settlement of the Roman ques-
ton such notification is justified
owing to the fact that Cancellation
between the Pope and and Italy will
imply the Observation-Disclosures Of the
Papacy, in which, in future, the Ital-
ian element win not predominant as
heretofore lest the church should be
considered more Italian than Cath
olic.
THE mere fact of such notifica-
ton, which Mr.. Wilson has consented
to make, will afford sufficient inter-
national sanction to the settlement
which may be announced after Mr.
/ Wilson's visit to the Pope."
