Pretty New
FlOwered CretOnnes
Specials 55c and Csc

Such designs and such soft
beautiful colorings as you find
in old English or French prints
and many Of these patterns had
their origin that way.
Some are just as decidedly
French (such as the stripes with
tiny punches of exquisite flowers
scattered in between) as the
others are English (the ones with
large flowered designs and close
ly covered grounds).
These cretonnes are of heavy
quality and among the prettiest
we have ever had for hangings,
curtains, upholstering or slip
covers.
For people who have neither
the time nor inclination to do the
necessary making and fitting
themselves, we will gladly submit
estimates from our workrooms.

tricks of trade and deceptive practices could be
wiped out.
The reason we have much superior class of

ADDRESS BY PROF. H. o. COOK

Every member and friend of the
Association expected to come and
bring others. Let us pack the Church
to hear one who has survived the
shells and the gas of the Great Drive
against the Huns and has returned to
tell the American people of the hero
ism of the Black boys in France. We
have fought for Democracy abroad,
let us continue the fight at home
until every American citizen has
equal rights in the pursuit of life, lib
erty and happiness.
Some Things the National Association
for the Advancement of colored
People Has Done.
The N. A. A. c.. P. is the only or
ganization in the United States with
ten years of clean record of fighting
for the liberty and rights of the OPP
pressed Philippians backed and finan.
ced by the best white and colored
people in America. Thousands of
Northern Yankees are helping to sup
port this organization. What are you
doing to help your own self to free
dom and democracy? You have helped
others, now help your own.
A few of the big things this Asso-
citation has done in the past ten years
and is at present doing on the job,
fighting for the enforcement of the
14th and 18th Amendments to the
Constitution. Assisted in the State
and United States Courts until in
1915 the Supreme Court declared the
Grandfather Clause" unconstitution.
al. Mr.. Morfield Storey, president of
this association, filed the briefs in
this case; also as counsel in the fight
against residential segregation, which
was won, the Supreme Court of the
United States declaring all such ordi-
nances unconstitutional. Fought for
equal treatment of colored soldiers.
Opposed segregation in civil service

AN SHOP.

Mr.. c. ]. Nelson, the well
known barber of 1916 East 18th
street, is determined to lead in
the barber business, as is DEM
onstrated by the many additions
which he has made from time
to time to increase the attract
iveness to his patronage. Mr..
Nelson has recently received a
valuable addition to his force in
the person of Mrs. Villa Bridge
of Dallas, Texas, who is a skill
full and finished artist, also J..
II. Anderson, who has built up
a wonderful trade since being
connected with this thriving
business. Mr.. Nelson has in
stalled two electric hair cutting
machines and undoubtedly has
one of the handsomest shops in
not only this city, but the en-
tire West. Every comfort and
convenience for his patrons has
been installed and he has a pat
ronage far surprising other
shops of it's size in Kansas City.
If you want the best and latest
service in an up-to-date shop
and by the most skillful work
men call on c. ]. Nelson, 1916
East 18th street, and you will
never go anywhere else.
