sion &C." received the unqualified

To Tour Europe.

Madam Chadwick will leave short
ly for Europe. where she will be en-
gagged in giving recitals in that coun-
try. Thoroughly equipped for her
work, she has gained much promi-
nence by her singing. Seldom does
one find voice SO rare as that pos
sessed by Madam Chadwick. Her
visit to Minneapolis proved very
timely and her recital was more than
appreciated. Every one who heard
her are unanimous in their desire for
a return engagement of the noted So
prano.
The Mothers Study club is pur-
posed to help better conditions In the
city as pertains to the race younger

RACE INSURANCE
COMPANY PLANS
To ENTER STATE
One of the Oldest and Strongest
Companies Is Interested
in Northwest.
WILL INCREASE EVERY
ANGLE OF BUSINESS
Local Realtor Started Negotia-
ti0ns at Request of Negro
Business League.

AT last Minnesota is to have one
of the oldest and strongest Negro
Life Insurance Companies in the
country operating within its bounda-
ries." The above information was
given out by Fred d. McCracken,
realtor and insurance dealer. Ac-
cording to the statement of Mr.. Nc
Cracken, the realization that Mime
sofa is a fertile field for race insur-
ance prompted the company to plan
entering this state.
For some time the advisability OF
having a race insurance company in
the state has been considered and the
result can be largely attributed to
the initiative of Mr.. McCracken.
Ferd Project Considered.
The Ford project Is destined to
draw many new people to the Twin
Cities and 1t is expected that an in
crease In commercial activities will be
noticed. The majority of these peo-
pie are accustomed to doing business
with their own people. For this rea-
son many stock owners and policy
holders can be expected. The new
company will be thoroughly organic
ed in the state and prepared to begin
business when these conditions come.
Not only will the Insurance Company
be of much service to the new popu-
lation. but for every race person In
the state.
More Business.
This Is another stride for the local
Business league, as Mr.. McCracken
has been corresponding with several
large companies in the interest Of
the league. 1t was at the request Of
the Business league that negotiations
were begun. With the advent Of
more race companies into Minnesota,
,huch more business can be expected
from all sources. 1t will be advan-
tageous from all angles OF approach.
The rapidly increasing population
proves that it will support many new
phases of race business.

The Dollars Count.

If the amount of dollars spent by
our group at the above mentioned
store were enumerated the sum
would be astonishing when rated
over a period of several years. How
ever, 1t should be the aim of every
race person to endeavor to place their
funds in an appreciated market. The

against their several other depart
ments by purchasing such commodi-
ties from other sources.
