BUXTON NEWS,

We are mighty glad to see so many
Of the old citizens coming back and
casting their lot with us again. For
instance, Johnnie Nicholas of Gary,
Ind, Doffus Cary of Detroit, Mich,
Earnest Watson and John Jackson of
Cedar Rapids. The reappearing of
| familiar faces such as these helps to
bring back the old-time punch to Bux-
ton.
Mr. John Baker, the national organ
izer of the u. M. w. of A. after fin
ishing number of months of sue
cessful work through West Virginia,
is home for an indefinite stay.
The husbands of the ladies of the
Industrial club highly entertained
their wives by giving them big din
ner at the Y. M. G. A. on New Years
day. The men arranged the menu,
| hired the cooking done and then
served the dinner.
Mr.. Hy Mease has announced his
intentions of enlisting in the navy in
a few days.
We are pleased to announce that
Madam C. J. Walker, the wealthy and
noted hair culturist, is expected to ap-
pear in Buxton soon, to give her fam
Gus illustrated lecture, in which she
cities of the states. We are preparing
to have her program at the Y. M. G.
A. The club women are sparing no
pains toward making her coming a
great event for the people of Buxton.
Watch for the date.
The Y. M. C. A. will have their an
nual election of officers this January.
There are many good men on as can
didates; therefore we see no reason
why we should not have good staff
of officers to conduct the 1918 work.
Secretary J. E. Mills has announced
that the Y. is laying big plans for a
father and son banquet for February.
Mr.. j. E. Mills, general secretary
of the Y. NJ C. A., will attend the Ot-

vene January 18th.
The Buxton Y. M. C. A. is urging
upon every colored man, not only in
Buxton, but in the state of Iowa, to
start bank account on February 3rd,
which date the governor has set apart
as national thrift day, SO we say again
for Gods sake start an account in
some bank, if it is only SO cents. We
will break our necks trying to keep
up with the white man in high living,
swell dressing and expensive enter

trashy what nots so why not wake
up and begin to initiate the white man
in this great thrift movement?

If through all changes l could hold
A faith like yours, so clear, so bold.
If under pressure I could see
Like you the path to Liberty;
If could hold my trust secure,
And laugh and suffer and endure;
The petty scorn, the daily slight,
And keep my feet in paths of right;
Could calmly hold my hard won place;

Before the world stands big and
