NATIONAL NEGRO
HEALTH WEEK.

National Negro Health Week which
Is to be observed by Negroes all
over the United States, April 3rd to

good.
When one considers that Negroes
suffer most from the majority OF
communicable diseases, tuberculosis
in particular, and thus fall far short
of their maximum accumulation and
production. arguments for its hearty
support are not necessary.
The program includes sermons and
lectures for Sunday, Children's Day.

CARRIE.
My dear Carrie:


1t is an inherent part of woman to
wish to be charming and the condi-
ton of her complexion, hair and cos
tune have each an important role and
in the accomplishment of her wish.
We should study our complexion
and try to use those shades of powder
which harmonize with our national
color. l heartily endors the use of
any cosmetic which will give the
face a smooth, clear surface The mar
ket offers powders in the brunette
and pink shades which blend beauti-
fully with our brown compilations.
If one uses a cosmetic with the ex-
press purpose of getting white" l
feel that she shows serious lack
of self respect and race pride. l be-
lieve very few women guilty of
this offense.
Now, as to the care of the hair,
this has been the greatest blessing
that women have received since Free

ter she looks with clean, smooth hair,
how easily it can be arranged. 1t is
