SAYS HE REALLY
 WANTED TO WORK

"Mistah Pool, sho aint gwine ter be no vagrunt n,ggcr no moi"
 With these words, Joe Smith. q little negro charged with vagrancy, bade the city jail farewell, and turned his grinning face toward the future. and the brand new job which the fu- ture held for him.
 Joe was taken up five days ago because he could not convince the police that he had any visible means of support other than his pedal extremities. Being in jail was no damper to Joe's good humor however. The second morning he was in, he called one of the officers and said, "Capn. l don't mind being in jail, but kaint yo' give me job whal l kin see de sun shine?"
 Joe was then made a "trusty" and proved himself so energetic that off cials at the police department hunted him up a job. The Pines Hotel was in need of bell hop, and now Joe is all dolled up in a uniform, and the happiest negro in Pine Bluff.

The following letter has been re- ceived from Rev c. c. Neal, Presi- dent of the Arkansas Haygooa Indus trial College:
 Pine Bluff Graphic, Pine Bluff, Ark. Dear Sirs:-
 am herewith handing you our fourth monthly statement l am hap py to announce that the colored con- ference have subscribed and begun to
 raise the S20,000 for the new build-
 ing; with an equal amount coming from you a nice new building will soon adOrn our campus. We are also glad to announce a
 donation of five hundred dollars from Mrs. Eva Alexander of Scotts, Ark. :;
 which was paid to our treasurer, Wm.
 Bobo, and is not included in this re- 1 port.
 Our deficit is caused by our giving the students better board and our
 lack of opportunity to do as much work as heretofore, on account of bad
 weather and sickness. This, We hope
 will soon be overcome. We are call- ing Negro Farmers Conference to
 be hel dhere Feb. 13, 1919, to which
 we cordially invite you, when we will
 discuss and adopt reconstruction
 methods of farming and demobiliza
 tlon of the negro soldiers. 1 Yours very. respectfully. c. c. NEAL. l Ennrth Mnufh,. E;rorn;nI D.z.x

Starting the Car
TheseColdDays
With DisIlcl0th
Don't Waste Battery ''Juice''
or Manual Strength Try
ing to Crank Her Over
By H. Clifford Brokaw
Supervisor West Side Y. N. C. A.

tent" according to some of the auto
mobile owners who are bringing in
their complaints of trouble in starting
their cars these frosty mornings. 1t
might be the GLORIOUS summer" if the
peeved owner would but purloin his
wife's dshcloth and teakettle and use
them to start the car. Many a car which
purred off at the first turn of the
crank handle or the slightest step on
the starter button few weeks ago is
rccalcitrant now that there is tang
in the air and the north breezes blow.
Of course, the principal difficulty in
starting a car when it is cold is that
the gasolene does not readily vaporize
and combine with air into a combustible
mixture. Understanding this. do not
wear out the storage battery with the
starter or your patience with the crank
handle in a fruitless endeavor to start
something. Use your head instead OF
your arms. 1t will start easier, for
neither headstrong nor armstrong
starters are worth while. Just remem-
Der that the problem is one Of vapori-
cation.
The first point in this process to be
remembered is that the mixture must
be made richer. The facts Of the case

pears to be the final word in the mat

"Automobile Editor, New York Tribune,

most generously quoted, and incident
ally gave credit to the A. A. A. and the
chairman Of its touring board, Carl

definitely the statement that Article "
OF the Constitution Of the United
States is referred to as having had as
it's basis Article ~ Of the Articles OF
Confederation.
Apparently III your hurry OF going
10 press you failed TO grasp that the
material in Mr.. Gilbreath's publica
tion had quite positive A. A. A.
source, for in what you printed there
is no reference whatever TO the ma
tional automobile organization. | am
sure that the omission Of the A. A. A.
was accidental and not through in
tent, for certainly in the past you have
never hesitated to give us both credit
and, on couple Of occasions, some dis
credit. by printing in detail some un-
complimentary things said by certain
officials of the old state association in
New York, who have not been able to
have the A. A. A. conducted according
to their ideas.
Cali this is occasioned by my having
read on your weekly page the comment
from Washington, carrying the initials

friend Johnston-and over which you
have placed the quite incorrect head
ing Of 1T Seems to Be On the A. A. A.
No reference having been made to the

en- them out in the premises, which
shall hardly expect you to do under
the circumstances.
