Where The People
 May Have a Hearing
The Protest of "Sardine"
Phoenix, Arizona,
 January 31, 1920

Dear Mir. Editor:
 At the luncheon given in honor of General Pershing at the Woman's club I was one of the two hundred and fifty you spoke of in the morning paper who stood forty-five minutes. packed like sardines, waiting. Near me stood one of the trained nurses you mentioned, much admired for her uniform and service stripes.
 I was reminded of a little story an old southerner told of the just after the-war days:
 Aleck, a good for nothing negro was fond of Mandy. He was a frequent caller at the home where Mandy cooked for the family. He was such a ire Quent caller that his visits were source of much annoyance.
 He was called on the carpet one day and told that he had to quit going so often. He replied: "Aw now, sah. boss, I kaint quit goin' to see Mandy, Mandy's de bes' cole plate gal Fse ever had What do you mean by cold plate gal? well. you see. boss, Mandy puts all the vittles what de white folks leaves on a plate an sets it outside de do an I waits out dar an gifts it.
 Joking to one side" Mir. Editor, I do not believe our distinguished guest deserved the kind of reception meted out to him. There was little enthIsi- asm; we were too tired after the long standing wait: we were packed to- gether like sardines again to allow space for dancing. We tried to ap- preciate his short crisp speech; we were physically uncomfortable and in no frame of mind to do so. He was displayed for us to watch him dance. We two- hundred nd-fifty went, in reverence and deepest respect to our great commander; we received the cole plate" and an opportunity to watch a few dance to jazz music. do not believe the general felt that he was in "a big-league town" 1 do believe that this ought to be a lesson that in the future, broad minded men from the chamber of commerce or the Kiwanis club should take these en- tertainments in hand and not allow a few of the socially ambitious to cause a recurrence of Fridays unfor- tunate affair.
