Madame LYDIA Slaughter
Wilson Esta blish es the
Wonderful Slaughter Hair
Growing System Here
LARGE CLASS BEING FORMED

Hundreds of our readers who are
interested in beauty culture and es-
pectally in hair and scalp treatment
will be pleased to know that the won
derful Slaughter system, of which
they haXe often read but have not had
the opportunity of using, has been es-
tablished here. Knowing the great
need of our women in this line and
knowing too, the great good which
has been done for others in other
cities, Madame LYDIA Slaughter-Wilson
originator of the Slaughter System of
st. Louis, Mo, decided to establish
this system in Kansas City. Before
giving any notice of her arrival, six
ladies at once enrolled in a class for
three weeks treatment and are COM
pleting this course this week. The
1 ladies completing this Course are
Miss Augustine Duncan, Mrs. Lovey L.
| Laden, Mrs Minnie Moore Mrs. Cor.
della Burris, Mrs. Estelle Laden and
RMS. katheryn Level all of whom are
prepared to do good work and give
the best of service Mrs. Minnie
Moore is now prepared to do mani
curing at 1713 E. 18th st.
Madame LYDIA Slaughter Wilson has
hundreds of testimonials as well as
many photographs of persons who
have taken this treatment showing
the wonderful result obtained; and
she says that there is no question
whatever about the growing of hair
under this system and she backs uD
all she says by guaranteeing to grow
your hair or refund your money. ANY
ladies who are interested in learning
the art of growing hair would do well
TO get in touch at once with Madame
Slaughter Wilson. She is enrolling
pupils now for a class to begin in
few days for the study of scalp work,
facial massage and manicuring.
All former customers and friends
and new customers interested in the
wonderful system will call Madame
LYDIA Slaughter Wilson at 1913 Park

Fraternities Meet

On last Tuesday night, in response
to a circular letter sent out from the
office of Grand Chancellor, A w.
Lloyd of st. Louis, three representa-
tives from each of the different subor
dinate lodges and Courts of Calanthe
assembled at Castle Hall, 18th and
Michigan Ave, to form building
committee the purpose of which is to
erect a Pythian Temple for the Kan
sas City fraternity.
The circular sent out by the Grand
Chancellor was based upon a resolu-
tion which was introduced in the
Grand Lodge session in July by past
Grand Chancellor, James P. Maynard
of Kansas City. The resolution ema-
mated from the local lodges and sought
the endorsement of the Grand Lodge
in their effort to erect a Pythian Tenn
pie. The Grand Lodge unanimously
endorsed the project and offered to
furnish all or any part of the funds
required. 1t was upon the action
therefore, of the Grand Lodge and the
authority which it gave authorizing
the enterprise that Grand Chancellor
Lloyd, on the 30th of July, sent out
communication that each of the lodg
es of Kansas City and the Courts of
Calanthe, the auxiliary of ladies to the
Pythian family, to select three repre-
sentatives from each body to meet him
on Tuesday, September 2.
A most pleasing feature of Tues
day nights meeting was the unanimity
with which every organization in
structed it's representatives to work
and vote in the affirmative for the
move, each lodge pledging itself to do
its share in the raising of funds to pro-
mote the building. After all the repre-
sentatives had expressed their hearty
approval, the following permanent of.
ficers were electtd: L. A. Knox, for
the past ten years Grand Attorney,
Chairman; f. w. Dahney, one of the
best known fraternal men in the state,
vice-president; Col Don II. Rife of
Uniform Rank, secretary; Mrs. Mamie
Quick, of the Court of Calanthe, assist
ant secretary and Thomas n. Grant,
MuOSe realty uOlulHSS are SAID 10
equal 100000, treasurer. These Off,
GERS, with the committee are to form
plans which will hold it's meeting in
Kansas City for the purpose of look
ing into the Feasibility of the pro-
posal. The Endowment Board repre-
sents the insurance department of the
Grand Lodge and its sanction will give
assurance of ample funds to promote
the enterprise. Crittenden c. Clark,
grand mastesr of Masons of Missouri
and Jurisdiction was present and made
a very encouraging address as also
did grand secretary of Relief, of the
Masonic Garnd Lodge, Willis G. Nose
ly. Both of these gentlemen are Ply.
thians. 1t was the unanimous thought
of all present that at least 100000 be
raised and that a building not less
than four stories with store room
theatre, offices and lodge rooms
should be erected.

In the Labor Day parade last Mon
day, no single division won more praise
for their splendid bearing and excel
lent showing than did the International
Building Laborers' Union No. 1, and
their famous band, formerly the Sec
ond Regiment X. OF P. Band. They
were considered the crack division Of
the parade and were applauded along
the entire route; under the leadership
of Mr.. Charles Harris and the officers
of the organization they gave a mon
ster outing and celebration at Helms
Park which was attended by thousands
of our people afternoon and evening
After an enjoyable band concert
speeches were made by Senator Will
lam White, one of the veteran men,
bers of the organization and by Hon
w, c. Hueston and Nelson c. Crews

Reed, a Colored butcher from Morris,
for $4,000 cash prize which was won
by the Colored man in two minutes

butchers time was three minutes and
two seconds. 1t was one of the great
est celebrations ever held by the I'm

THE FELLOW THAT'S DOWN.

Jefferson City, Mo.
No matter how he came there,
1t is enough to know;
He needs hand in kindness,
Extended in his woe:
To stand him on his feet again,
Strong in the confidence of men.
He may have made a blunder
Through kindly meant advice.
That led to his disaster,
And now must pay the price
OF self-denial, struggle, pain,
His fame and fortune to regain.
Then lift the man that's fallen,
No matter what the cause;
You may yourself make failures,
No one is free from flaws;
The kindness you may show today
With interest he may repay.
