Local charities will be aided to the extent of s565 as the result of three weeks' sales at the Red Cross Shop and Salvage. This was the amount of business transacted during 2l days in February, according to Mrs. w. K. James, who said yesterday that there was no difficulty in selling goods. The trouble arose in procuring them.
 We need to be restocked. Every one is very kind about promising to contribute clothing and furnishings, but the donations are not coming in as fast as we need the articles. Of course, we realize that everyone is busy with her own affairs, but we must have more goods if we are to carry on.''
 Mrs. James spoke of the many who would not accept charity and who were not able to pay store prices" for clothing.
 "One of our patrons is woman who is taking care of her sick husband and sending her two small sons to school She was shopping for the boys on her last call, looking for in expensive shirts. which she found at the shop for 10 cents apiece. The youngsters were with her. patched to the limit, and were delighted they were to have a new outfit for school. The mother actually cried when she learned the price, which was within her means

HEATH SONCSTERS IN
 RECITAL SUN. NIGHT

The negro folk song is one of the distinct contributions of America to the worlds music. Every negro in- stinctively feels and understands ally melodiouS voices, a mbination Which makes for easy and effective singing. The plantation songs of the south are known the world over as the finest of pure folk songs, and the jubi- lee songs are the choicest of these.
 Many or the younger generation of negroes wish to forget these songs which must always be reminiscent of slavery, but the great negro schools and churches, with sounder wisdom and truer feeling for racial values, continue to cherish and use them. They come straight out of the heart of primitive man. Prof. J. W. Work of Fisk university. one of the authorities on this subject and one of the sweet est of the jubilee singers, goes into negro churches in out-of- the-way writes down the new songs he hears, for there in little churches, in camp meetings and around their humble firesides. is the source of this stream of clear, refreshing music.
 In organizing the Heath Jubilee Singers here, MT. Heath is doing a for they will help the races understand each other, and so improve conditions in the city. These jubilee songs are born of the negros faith, humility, kindliness, and wonderful patience in oppression. And just because they are of this finer, even though humber par entage, they are truer to art than Dr. DuBois' brilliant prose poems in which always truculent spirit re- veals itself. Prof. Work, after study ing over 500 songs, says he has never found anything bitter or vindict1ve in them. They look forward to better things; they are visions and rhapso- dies of heaven and the consultations of the Lord.
 The Heath Singers will be heard for the first time in Phoenix in the Con gregational church, Second and Wil- letta streets, Sunday evening. They will sing, Its Me- My Lord, What a Morning." He Rose From the Dead ; and the entrancingly beautiful steal Away to Jesus," In addition, MT. Heath will sing "Golgotha" by Gouches.
 The public is invited tp this service. A silver offering will be taken.
