NEW NEGRO BUSINESS

The opening OF the doors Of "ouI
Grocery Company" with complete
and we'll arranged stock marks the
advent Of one other Negro company
into the business life Of Dallas This
company chartered with paid in
stock of over $500 etenrs one Of
the best fields inaninanle for bus
mess OF It's particular kind
1t is located in thickly settled
Negro district access TO it Is easy
from all sides. There are compel
itors enough about it to make those
who manage it study and keep
abreast Of the times in furnishing
to the public the kind and class Of
goods and service necessary to tht
keeping Of their patronage.
This Grocery Company is the
third venture Of Dallas Negroes into
corporations. 1t is to be hoped thai
others will be formed as conditions
permit It is needless TO state thai
the changed attitude of the Negro
buying public assures their success
efficiently managed. Negroes will
support Negro enterprise They only
demand as II Is right to demand
that the kind and quality of the goods
and service accorded them be com
nensuratc with that given elsewhere
IN our section 1t is highly inter
csting to note this change OF attitude
and the ways in which it is mani
Testing itself There was a time
when tho Negro property ownor whc
contemplated selling would refuse a
possible Negro buyer. Now from the
reports Of the volumes OF business
done by our real estate agents and
our Realty and Construction Com
pany the Negroes who contemplates
selling, hunts prospective Negro
buyer first, Our dentists state that
rarely ever do they find Negro who
has tried a white dentist first The
doctors state that their patients now
complain that the present lack OF
Negro hospital makes it necessary
that white surgeons perform their
operations AS is the case in the
above instances so 1t is in all linea
a. Negro business.
There is reason for this condition
this change Of attitude is due in
no small part to the fact that the
Nero who sells either his services
or any commodity needed by the
public. has realized that IN order to
compete successfully with others in
the same field, he must measure up

PRAYER.

Essence of infinite kindness, most powerful God,
turn to Thee in my vehement sorrow;
Extend to thine Omnipotent arm
Break down SANDER and odious hate,
And pluck out this ignonimous stamp
With which the world has branded my forehead
Thou alone art my defender my God.
He can do anything, He who give
To the sullen sea, its waves and fishes
Fire to the sun, movement to the air,
Life to the plants and motion to the rivers.
uI-Thou art all powerful everything must die,
Or be revived at the holy call;
With out Thee Savior there is nothing
Which in the unfathonable eternity perishes,
And yet this nothing obeys Thee,
Since from it humanity was created.
W. could not deceive Thee, God of clemency,
And since your eternal wisdom
Sees through my body to my very soul
AS If it clear transparent air;
Forbid impous cumny to clap its hands,
Because innocense is humbed.
V.-But if it pleases thy highest Omnipotence,
That should perish like mpious criminal,
And that men to my cold dead body,
Should insult with malicious intent and pleasure,
Let thy voice resound and let my life end
Thy will be done in me, my God.
