Leon Willterson, IL, propped up in
bed at his home, 10 North Lauderdale
street Tuesday reached the sage con-
clusion that he is no human fly. This
conclusion was forced upon Leon Mon
day night when he essayed a fly
stunt on the wall of the Shelby county
courthouse, at the Washington avenue
and Third street corner. Leon reached
the SECOND floor, when his foot slipped
and he toppled onto the, greensward.
A police emergency machine rushed
Leon to the General hospital Internal
injuries, feared at first, failed t0 de-
velop, and Leon was taken to his home
later. He is badly-and painfully
bruised. For a time he was partly
paralyzed as result of the fall, which
might have terminated seriously but
for the fact that he fell onto grass.

Negro Corporation
In Foreign Trade
Especial from Washington.)

J. Williams Clifford, president of the
Monumental Pictures Corporation re-
Gently signed a contract with the Sea-
board Corporation Of New York City for
World Distribution of the Monumental
Monthly, a news reel to be released each
month picturizing the achievements of
the American Negro in this country and
the progress of the darker races of the
world
''The educational and inspirational
news that this News Reel will give to
the masses of colored people in this coun-
try is beyond estima ton. Each month
you will have an opportunity to see on
the screen, members of our own race
lines of endeavor, and there will be an
opportunity for propaganda in the in
terest of my people, Lieutenant Cliff
ford said when interviewed by a news
paper correspondent He further states
that it will be the7intention Of the exc
cutives of the Monumental Pictures Cor
poration not only to place the picture in
every house in this country catering to
colored patronage, but also to work up
the best foreign distribution possible for
the film
An effort will also be made to have,
this film shown in white houses in the
northwestern and northeastern parts Of
gatherings, and special affairs will be
filmed along with the most prominent
men of the hour, and will be presented
by highly trained men in the motion pic
ture industry.
Mr.. Clifford further stated that just
as the Pathe News has brought to mil
lions Of Americans glimpses of different
parts of the world, and men and women
who stand out pre-eminent as leaders in
world affairs, the Monumental Monthly
will be an American institution that will
draw the masses Of the Negroes in this
country closer together and fill them
with pride and honor at the success and
accomplishments of their brothers in
educational, social, political business and
financial fields.
Many congratulatory letters have been
pouring into Mr.. Clifford s office COM
plimenting the executives of the Monu-
mental Pictures Corporation upon this
notable achievement. The release of
the first monthly has been. announced
for February 1, 1921.
