A Verv Short Story

Peggy worked in a laundry.
She didn't like the work, but
she had her living to earn. All
day long she ironed pretty
things that she could not al
ford for herself. Sometimes
BY night her head and back
would ache and the iron
seemed to weigh a ton. But
the ache in her back was
nothing to the dull pain in
her heart, and the weight OF
the iron was light compared
with the heavy discomfort
within her.
One day as she rode home
on the street car, she noticed
the advertisement of the
night sessions of the local
business college. The next
night she talked with the
principal.
"A whole book could be writ
ten on the experiences of that
winter. It was no light task.
Today Peggy is holding a
well paid office position.
There is another girl at Peg
gy's ironing board, and her
head and back ache, and she
enyies Peggy the pretty
things she sends to the
laundry. Perhaps some day
she will catch Peggy's vision.
We hope so.
We. are not going to point
out the moral. But we can
help the many Peggies who
haven't yet found themselves.
Write or call today and let
us tell you how.

One Of the most disastrous as well as fatal
fires that has overtaken Seattle for a good
many years occurred when the Lincoln Hotel
was burned one day this week, four persons
being killed and a score more or less in
jured, besides property valued at 100000
being destroyed. If it be true that the city
authorities had been warned of the fire trap
conditions Of the Lincon and, if it be true,
that for the sake of excessive gain the own
ers or operators of the Lincoln had so al
tered the floor plans Of the building as to
make egress therefrom in case Of fire impos-
sible, then a whole string of criminal negli-
gence has been practiced and the guilty
parties thereof should be duly punished This
desire to make money at any cost even when
human life is involved, should receive a
severe setback and it seems to us here is a
splendid opportunity to begin operation Let
the law without fear or favor and regardless
Of big business interests turn on the light
and carefully search every road and by-way
leading up to this revolving holocaust.

CALDWELL CALLS COPS

Something rotten in Denmark now. and
this has caused police row. The search
lights from the city hall have hit the graft
ers like squall and they have scattered
fore and aft lest each Of them might get the
gait. The money taken by the cops was
garnered by the dippy "hops''. With fear
and trembling in their hearts they parted
from the golden tarts, and, Officer Graft en-
joyed the dough, and kept the hops from
criminal row. Among the cops the trouble
spreads and they are trmebing for their
heads but Caldwell like a sphynx sits still
are alright, if you are alright, but, if all
wrong with you all night" was all the
sphynx would have to say, to those who
called about "my hay 81 mean the chief
to closely quizz, about the Chinese crooked
"llz and if the officers on that beat have
gathered in the golden wheat, and closed
their eyes and shut their mouths when pass
ing by bunch Of fraus', who get the money
from the knights that labor for the legal
lights and, then conspired to dupe the
chief then they will surely come to grief,
but, If the chief has not made good, then he
will surely lose his hood. This open town
behind closed doors will have to work on
other shores. That there is something in
Denmark rotten, will not by me be soon for
gotten, and day by day I'll grind away to
make Seattle safe for Jay, who comes to
town IN quest of biz but soon is captured by
Little Liz, who is protected by the cop, who
gets his divy from the top" TO that the
preachers said Amen, and told the mayor
to clean the pen, of all the crooked cops
within even if the entire lot was dumped
into the resting pot.

POOR LAZARUS

The California Eagle gives some statistics
which should stir the red blood of the
colored people to think seriously. We do
not envy the progress made by the Japan
ese. but it is a painful thought to note
the Negro of a big cosmopolitan city like
Los Angeles is behind in everything except
shoe shining parlors, having one more than
the alien. Something must be wrong with
the colored people! This report as given
by the Eagle is study for political econ
omists but they are cohesive people,
that is the secret Of the Japanese success,
while the Negro is an ADHESIVE people
who believe in adhering to the teachings
of the masters, due to the environments OF
the fathers, transmitted by tradition to the
Children; also due to the environments OF
the children to-day who see no future be-
cause the training. is wrong. Having to
look for every semblance Of help from the
white mans effort and foresight the Ne
gro contents himself like poor Lazarus with
whatev2d crlmDs OF opportunity thai 4lGr
fall his way. There are many angles OF
discussion which might fill book but we
dare not attempt enumerating the various
reaesons which retard the race ''IIe also
serves who only stand and wait" is the
motto Of the lackey, and he waits: for in
doing so, he contents himself with the sat-
isfed belief--'I will get mine."
A race that is dependent upon charity
and sympathy to assist it to live must final
ly die from malignant inertia. It cannot
get farther than the master permits, for
having no dynamic force it cannot evolve
sufficient energy to generate action. Slav-
cry was the curse which has handed down
these ffty-fve years, crude group that
has no cohesive racial motor power. The
war aroused a few Of us, but many young
people are getting drowsy and are falling
into that class which can never bring the
respect of any people who admire the
spirit of self help. IF the white people can
keep the black people leaning on them
for succor for the next half century, there
will be no cause for fear Of Negro domina-
ton The Japanese is a mutual producer
and believes that MISREPRESENTATION is the
first law of benevolence." The white
man is a mutual producer and believes the
same thing. Both have extreme cohesive
power; that is why each respects the other
in spite of the racial difference. When ma
ture destroys the power Of adhesiveness,
then our chance may come. Nature cannot
do all. The Negro must do some things
IRE greatest menace to racial disruption
and confusion is the ever present sO-called
clever Negro who leans on the white people
all the time, and is perfectly satisfied so
long as he keeps the white man looking
through dark glasses. He seemingly pros
pers. and may be called dependable U.s.
able Negro The white man believes in him
because he trusts him to continue the con-
fusion. Cohesion is not the element that is
wanted in the Negro, for that force will
change our standard Of civilization Co.
hesion produces race consciousness; adhe-
