THE LINCOLN THEATRE
RE-OPENING

/ Saturday, Sept. 10 marks the re
opening of Lincoln theatre. The BY
stander desires to recommend a few
suggestions which will be invaluable
| assets in the theatre Is struggle fol

First, if the house is there for col
ored for colored people see that we get
a variety of first class pictures. Sec
ond, see that above all things that we
have q COLORED ticket seller, ushers,
ticket takers, etc. We feel sure that
if the above suggestions are taken and
applied that success will be the har-
vest of the new management. If not,
we can It see how success can be ex-
pected. We do not believe that the
colored people would ask for anything
more, certainly nothing less.
We also hope that. the decent people
who patronize Lincoln Theatre will not
be disgusted at having to endure dis
gusting vaudeville There are places
where six year old pictures, ham scam
music and red light district vaudeville
can be dumped on the colored people
at profit but, we are happy to know
that people Of such calibre in this city
are few and far between and unques-
tionably not enough to support strot-
ten barrel house,
It is not the fact that the theatre is
for celored people and that we can sit
any. place that will make the theatre a
success. We want rea1 service, first,
last and all the time Give us service!

RACE COALITION NEEDED.

Every Negro is beginning to under
stand that we are the masters Of our
fates and captains of our souls. Rely
ing upon other people as props and the
only props to our prosperity is no long
er sane and unquestionably the need of
the hour as never before is coalition.
The New York AMSTERDAM speak
ing along the same line says:
"With the alleged white races draw
ing closer together all over the world,
and drawing the color tighter than ever
in their domestic and international
dealings with off-color peoples, it seems
a waste of breath to ask tDo we need
q world rld-embracing union of African
lpeoples2 The question by the irresisti-
BILE logic Of conditions affecting African
people everywhere, answers itself to
the satisfaction Of every one with vi.
sion to see beyond his own fence and
the immediate times in which he lives
There are plenty of people, however
so constituted that they cannot get
away from themselves and their imme
date concerns and the times and
places where they are. These sort of
people, like those who inhabit islands
are affected in their thought by the
limitations Of their surroundings; their
narrow space to breathe in and the
immediate skies above them shut them
in so that they grow mentally inwardly
and not outwardly Their opinions OF
other people and other lands and other
waters than their own are vague, hazy
and superstitious.
It is the selfish, damnable, skeptica]
fear to make adventure into things on
sound basis that have marked the step
ping stones of our national and inter
national prosperity in every line that
is hurting us. 3s
The Bystander observes that there
are Negroes who still persist that they
It trust and respect their colored
fellow men, yet they are willing t
trust and invest in the widest Of
| schemes invented by some one else. Sc
long as that cannibal like supersti
tious feeling dominates the Negro as {
race Of people our program for advance
ment is imperfect.
| There is a stormy period ahead fol
] the colored man and we must summon
our best qualities to our command ani
actually strike and fight together mo-
Las individuals but as great nation.

CHRISTIAN INDUSTRIAL MISSION
OF KEoKUK.
(By Mrs. Elizabeth Roxlau., !,

Keokuk, Iowa, Sept. l1.--Friday aft
sernoon business meeting of the mem
bers of the Mission was held in the mis-
sion rooms, 1924 Main street and an ex-
cellent quarterly report of the charity
work done in the community was rem
dered.
Nearly one hundred articles in serv-
iceable wearing apparel had been do
mated to the needy in town regardless
Of race, aside from a large assortment
sold for pittances in two rumnage sales
held.
One service in the state prison at
Fort Madison has been conducted under
auspices Of the mission and fifty-four
scripture post cards were afterward
mailed to inmates who out of apprecia-
tion of the service conducted by Miss
Sidney J.. Davis, within the grays walls,
sent contributions to the mission.
Several strange men without employ
ment, in passing through the city have
been assisted by the mission. Meals
were given to four travelling colored
men, and a white man passing through,
claiming to be from Cleveland, Ohio,
was also given the assistance he asked
for, which was a couple of shirts; q
meal, and fifty cents for scrubbing the
reading room floor. s sssl
In view Of the cases cited and innum-
|erable other cases Of the unemployed,

has never ended and that today is not
even ended. It is starvation following
pestilence, and stalking hand in hand,
with death from exposure, from vio-
lence or from disease.
I'm the mountains between Kars

human beings without clothing, food or

wandering from place to place like
people in nightmare. Unless they

In southern Persia, the remnant of the
ancient family Of Chaldean Christians

pitiful fugitives, dependent upon the
generosity of strangers for life itself.

the Near East Relief. Scattered
throughout the Near East, there are

it is difficult for us to grasp its mean
Ing. A whole nation, a living, Christian
people, face to face with extermina-
ton today, unless we help. We shall!
see an entire nation disappear from
the face of the earth before our eyes
If we withhold our hand now, when
the call comes to us to save by giving,
or by inaction to condemn to death.
Save the chiIdren!
"Perhaps we cannot save ali the
grown people Of this oldest Christian
nation in the world. But at least we
can save the little children who hold
the future in their hands. They have
wronged no one. They have harmed
40 one. And they have suffered
through the precious years of child
hood calvary of agony and wretched-
ness. For three years the Near East
Relief, an American organization, in
corporated by Congress, has built up
the nucleus of a new generation in the
Near East, with the ;sttle children
that it has taken in from the roadside
and barren places and nursed back ta
health, fed, clothed, housed and edu-
Gated, in the name Of the Americas
people who have furnished the funds
for this great work.

with it are other tonic and vitalizing
elements of proved merit. In most
cases, the. compound produces marked
Improvement in a day or two, and in a
short time the vitality is revived, the
circulation improved and the glow of
health is felt in every part.
The new vitalizer contains expensive
chemicals, but manufacturing in enor-
