otAA fhhBCAOg Jan lO.-IHe du-
dress of Hon. T. M. Belts few
days ago, still is discussed by
those who heard it. When he stood
for the space of two hours and dis
cuss1 d the subject, "Why the Ne
gro Haven't Got any Money" Sever.
al reasons were made plain. One
is we invest too much money In
railroad tickets; we invest too
much money In second hand auto
mobiles, and join too many lodges
and are soon out; fine clothes were
mentioned, while other things were
also mentioned. The time will not
permit me to outline his entire adj
dress. The Negro must remain true
to his race, true to his God and
enterprising to his enterprises. The
wedding bells are ringing in the
