Bills Ebistle to the Camcasiams

you how that birds clear off his
onion"
Bill carefully adjusted his tie, lean
ed forward, placed his elbows on the
arms of his chair, hunched up his
shoulders, and began counting off the
fingers of his left hand with the fore
fingers of his right. Well, when I
saw all these signs of long drawn
out argument, | pushed back my type
writer, took fresh light, and began
to wonder if | could sleep with my
eyes open.
Here's the idea, Mister Scott. Sup
pose you did write a whole bunch of
stuff about what we boys did in
France. That wouldn't prove any
thing. You wouldn't convince any
body that wasn't over there. And we
fellows that were over there don't
need to be convinced. But if took
something that everybody knows
something about, see. Why, then, I
could prove something. Umh? | could
prove something, then, umh?"
"Why, yes, you could" l replied~to
his repeated "umh"
Now just suppose you were one of
these Caucasians, which, of course |
know you're not But just suppose
you were And you should walk up to
me and say, Bill, you colored boys
make a hot bunch of soldiers-in a
pigs eye. I'd come back at you like
this"
Now Bill arose and struck what
was nothing if not dramatic atti-
tude and delivered himself of the
following epistle:
1. Dear Caucasians
2. It's just as much of a pain to
me as it is to you for me to have to

university in the west. There had been
a vote taken among the co-eds to find
out what qualities they most admired
in men. And these are the qualities
that won OUT
5. Moderately good-looking, ath-
letically inclined, morally clean, re-
spectful toward religion, healthy, ap-
preciative of the good and beautiful,
well-trained socially, chivalrous, op-
timistic, good-natured.

get the drift, that's your bad luck.

first noticed two soft steps, then the
sliding of a chair-and there sat Bill.
Well, he crossed his legs with a
world of consideration for the crease
in his trousers, hunched himself down
in his chair, and condescended to fav-
or me with his choice grin. l simply
pushed the cigarette and matches over
to where he could reach them and
hoped for the best. That is, hoped
that his visit would be short on this
morning, of all mornings.

well, you see, it's this way, Bill.
There is certain army officer that
has lately cast a very serious suspi-
cion against the colored troops under
his command during the war. His re-
marks created quite a sensation. And
now that the excitement has died
down and the smoke cleared away,
so to speak, have thought to prepare
a resume of the Negro soldiers

erals accusations to be unjust"
Bill seemed to turn this over in his
mind.

"You know, Mister Scott, read

"Bullard," l replied.

"Yes, that's what I'm doing"
"Humh. That's not doodley-doo."
