park Monday afternoon to mean them
also, and were humiliated to find that
they could not be admitted to the
park This instance serves as further
proof of our contention that the Phoe-
nix Tribune is the only newspaper in
the state of Arizona that makes a di-
rect personal appeal to colored people.
Whenever an advertisement or notice
appears in this paper it means that
colored people are welcome and will
be given courteous treatment An ad-
vertisement in any other paper is
general and may mean that colored
people are welcome and again it may
mean that the appeal is only to eau
casians. All of which brings to mind
more forcibly the fact that it will pay
you to scan the pages of the Tribune
before you do any buying and unless
the firm is represented in our adver
tising columns, pass on Only those
merchants who want the patronage of
colored people advertise in the Tri-
bune. They invite your trade and will
treat you right Go where you are
invited.
Getting Ready for Conference
The Rev. T. ]. Sanford, pastor of
the A. M. E. church, wants his men,

Conference will convene September
Sth in Cheyenne, Wyo., and that he

claims, such as dollar money, educa-
tional funds, missionary money, etc.
He will call on you in a few days, so
be ready to do your part.
Lest You Forget
