Foundation of Confidence
Required in Business

Integrity is a prime essential to
real success. One who is dishonest
may pile up money, but riches are
not important without honor and the
respect of your associates. | try al
ways to keep my word, no matter how
trifling the circumstances, and never
promise what / can't fulfill / insist
that none of our men make contract
that the company can't live up to
fully. Any salesman discovered max
ing an agreement in which is insert
ed a clause giving the company a loop
hole to escape from SO filling the
contrast, will be given ten minutes
notice. This policy is so well under
stood that we never have to enforce
the threat. | never forget that in
,lividual friendship, as well as cor
poration good will, is based on con-
fidenee; and the foundation of con-
fidence is observation-disclosures G.
Grace, in Forbes Magazine.

down what he terms vicious propa-
ganda" aimed to create discord be-

Justice Goes Mad in Arkansas

Looking over the crowded court
room mothers, sisters sitting waiting in
suspense for the next move justice will
make against them. Old woman with
tears in their eyes wiring their hands
in the fond hope that their loved ones
will get square deal, but their hopes
are only cherished for awhile. Justice
again takes off her blind and points
out the man of color as--Guilty. The
day was dark and dreary, the heavens
itself looked down with disgust ON the
automatic disorder of things men were
sent to their doom without even be-
ing given fighting chance. Arkansas
has forever tarnished the escutcheon
of our judicial dignity, a state with
ready justice to strike down a race of
men. Nine race members were sent
eneed to terms in the penitentiary,
twentyseyen to terms of five years,

Beauregard Mosely Passes
Away

B. +. Mosely, owner of The Idle
wild Hotel and formerly an attorney
in this city died Tuesday evening,
Dec. 2. Mr.. Mosely was a shrewd
business man and acquired early
training in Georgia. He studded law
in a Louisiana office and came to
Chicago in 1896.
Mr.. Mosely was a politician and
supported Medill Mccormick for
Senator and also toured the country
in interest of the late President
Roosevelt. Senator Mccormick was
at his bedside few hours before
death came.
Mr.. Mosely was placed in i'll favor
during the riot because of an able
aged statement he made to the eff
feet that this was White mans coun-
try.
His friends trust that the memory
of his good deeds will outweigh the
the unfortunate evil that man is
prone to commit.
May his soul rest in peace.

Leader Urges His
Race to Shun
Idleness

Little Rock, Arkansas, Gazette,
Dec. 3, 1919.
DR.. f. E. Morris addressing the
Negro Baptist State Convention said
that idlcness was the crime breeder
of America, and he said chat before
this country could ever put down
crime, criminality, lynching, mob
violence and their kindred evils, it
would be necessary to enforce a
strict vagrancy law which would
force all loafers to go to work or
move on, and move clear out of the
state.
Mr.. Morris said some plain things,
urging his people to make friends in
the communities in which they live,
and then to teach their children that
it is no disgrace to work "The man
or woman who wont work will steal
or resort to some other unbecoming
method of gettine their support he
dress ap, Iook keyise and walk the
said, "for no man or woman can
streets without resorting to some dis
honest methods
"Tell it so the world can hear it,
engrave it on the azure blue above
so that he who runs may read it, that
the Negroes of Arkansas are opposed
to crime, criminality, lynching, mob
violence, assaults on women, and he
condems them with all of his life
We preach agaist this, an dive have
put forth an effort to reach the
unreached of our race, but we have
not succeeded thus far, for we can
not get them into our churches,
homes, schools and places of health
full and uplifting influences. He is
in the dens of shame and disgrace,
the gambling hels and our arms are
too short to reach them, they can
only be reached by the arm of the
law"

Governor Commends
Work of Negro
Bishop

Little Rock, Ark, November 29.-
Governor Brough commended the
work of the Negroes under the lead
ership of Bishop J. NJ. Conner, in an
address before the African Methodist
Episcopal conference of Arkansas in
Bethel A. NJ. +. Church, Ninth street
and Broadway.
Referring to Bishop Conner, Gov
ernor Brough said: "Hc is a sane and
careful leader of his people. | have
the highest regard for him. He is
putting forth and effort to rid his
people of ignorance. Education is the
salvation of all races"
The conference opened with the
scrutiny of the official and religious
character of each minister. While
all passed without a black mark,
Bishop Conner reminded them that
there were complaints against some
ministers because of their failure to
pay debts. He declared that he was
not elected to collect debts, but that
the man who would not pay debt
was dishonest and not qualified to
be leader of the people.
Or. c. M. Townsend spoke on the
work and leadership of Bishop Con-
ner and said that he had done much
to cement the friendly relation be-
tween the races in this section of the
country and Oklahoma.
Shorter College, headed by DR.. S.
L. Green, president, visited the con-
ference yesterday afternoon in. a
body. An effort is being made to pay
the college out of debt before the
meeting of the general conference
in May.

MANY PROMINENT CITIZENS
PRESENT.

The large dining room was Off
cially opened at o'clock. Only the
regular patrons of the hotel, how
ever, were on the scene to greet the
beautiful decorations, classic Jazz
music that was previously and espe-
cially prepared by the management
of the Hotel. But at eight o'clock
hundreds of automobiles covered the
streets surrounding the hotel like
the sands cap the underlying strata
of the Sahara. They expected some
thing great, something unusual. They
found it. Perhaps nowhere in Amer
lea could they have found more high
class joy and mirth. The dance floor
was excellent, the music was of the
YIN Europe variety which of course
satisfies the most particular. Among
the many present were Mrs. and Mrs
Dave Manson, Mr.. and Mrs. r. S.
Abott, Dir. and Mrs. Spencer Dicker-
son, Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar d. f. Priest,
Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson, Mrs. and
Mrs. Geo. Garner, Mrs. DR.. Lester
