springs has contributed daily 9. quart
OF milk for the tiny human bundle

FAINT alive.
Mary is the pride OF the Hicks

great world humbly and unpreten-
dously but her service has been OF
real worth In this case.

SITTING ON TINE FLOOR

What next? Colored people sit OH
the floor in Il jim crow gallery OF II
white theatre. What next? we ask.
How long. oh how long, colorcd people
will we continue to lower ourselves
and keep our race just where IL is and
has been for all these years, by not,
merely accepting these conditions, but
by paying to get them? ,.,,,. ~.
God knows 1t IS bad enough fof our
people to pay their money for jim
crow privilege, knowing that they arc
to be jim crowcd, but when they are
jim crowcd and have to sit on the
floor, it's the limit And that is just
what the colored people OF Roanoke,
Virginia are doing now to get the
chance OF seeing vaudeville show.
AS yet there arc no seats in the
jim crow gallery allotted to colorcd
people, and every night they go there
just the same ana pack the place,
sitting on the floor. Many take old
newspapers with them for their ladies
to Sit on. This Gallery is n deep,
pit like place, in the very top of the
house, and the rows Of narrow plat
form on which the seats are to sit,
furnish places to sit, while your feet
rest on the row below and against
people sitting there.
Still our people will walk by a
colored theatre, owned and controlled
by our own people, where they can
walk in the front door and sit where
you please and pay for Il jim crow
seat in jim crow gallery and sit on
the floor. They get msulted if they
are asked to go to the gallery when
the lower floor is filed at the colored
theatre.
Is seeing vaudeville worth this
price? Is vaudeville SO great to our
race thatwe should pay such price?
Is it so sweet, SO dear, 50 all import
ant to us as a race that we should
accept or even. think Of paying for
such privilege? God forbid, and
some of the leading people Of the
race are the guilty ones. Some people
can be overlooked, but the best among
us are as guilty, and more 80, than
the ones we expect these things of
every day. 1t fs a sin to see Some
of our best women. all diked out in
their best, going to see a show and
sit on the uoor. God help them to
see this.
