OF
GREAT LIBERATOR
TO Be RESPECTED
Churches and Lodges Asked to
Arrange Programs Extolling
Virtues of Martyr.

May 9th will mark the 125th
anniversary of the birth of John
Brown, the noted abolitionist. 1t
is fitting that the memory OF
this splendid character should
be observed by the race he sac
rificed his life for in an effort to
break the shackles of bondage
and give it freedom from a
cursed and inhuman institution.
John Brown struck the de-
cisive blow that aroused the pub
lie conscience to the monstrous
wrong of human slavery. This
brave man who was not afraid
to die for a righteous cause
when on the way to the scaffold
spoke words of cheer to the
slave onlookers. About the last
act of his life was to stop and
kiss a colored child held in its
mothers arms.
The churches, lodges and civic
organizations should arrange ap-
propriate programs extolling the
virtues of this grand old man
and the important part he play
ed in bringing about the emanci-
patton of the race.

HUGE
ATTENDANCE FOR
DENVER MEETING
Segregation and Disfranchise-
ment to Be Features of
Denver Meeting.

Such large attendance is anticipated
at the Sixteenth Annual Conference in
Denver this June of the National As
sociation for the Advancement of Col
ored People, that all who plan to at
tend, whether as accredited delegates,
members or friends of the N. A. A..
C. P. are asked to send their names as
early as possible to the National Office
of the N. A. A. c. p, 90 Fifth Avenue,
New York.
This action is asked for in order that
proper accommodations may be arrang-
ed in advance for all visitors. The op-
portunity to visit points of scenic in
terest in Colorado and in other parts
of the Far West at the low excursion
rates offered by the railroads is attract
ing many people.
In connection with the June Confer.
ence, Walter F. White, Assistant Sec
retary of the N A. A. c. p, made the
following statement:
"Not only Denver people, but friends
of the N. A. A. c. P. in other cities
and even in adjoining states, are plan
ming to give the Conference a truly
western welcome To make it easier
for them as well as for the National
Office of the N. A. A. c. p, to enter
tain all visitors we are asking every
one who plans to go, to send us his
name.
"The more people there are, the better
the railroad accommodations we can
get. For instance the group from New
York and vicinity will go to Denver in
special cars and possibly a special train.
To make such arrangements we must
know beforehand, as long as possible,
how many people are going to make the
trip"
Aside from the excursions to Colo
RADIO Springs and the Garden of the
Gods, which are attracting much inter-
est, two features of the Conference
which will receive especial attention, are
the questions of Segregation and Dis
franchisement in the South. The court
fight against segregation will be dis
cussed and made clear to visitors from
cities where similar contests are being
waged. The struggle against disfran-
chisement, begun against the Texas
white primary" law, will also receive
thorough discussion.

NEGRO BUSINESS
STIMULATION IS
OBJECT OF WEEK
Campaign Planned for Purpose
of Advertising Negro Busi-
ness Enterprises.

Tuskegee Institute. Ala.-"Buy
something from Negro Merchant"
is the slogan for National Negro
Trade Week which will be observed
May All as announced in a booklet
distributed today from Tuskegee In
stitute, headquarters for the National
Negro Business League.
DIR. Robert r. Motion, principal of
Tuskegee Institute and President of
the National Negro Business League,
says: This campaign is not organ
lied in antagonism to other mer-
chants but it is planned for the pur-
pose of advertising the existence Of
Negro business enterprises and to en-
courage the Negro merchants to CO.
operate in local trade boosting cam
paigns.'
In previous years similar cam
paigns have been conducted by Negro
merchants in Atlanta, st. Louis, San
Antonio and other places and reports
show that they have not only increas-
ed the turnover of stock of these col
ored enterprises, but have been the
means of bringing the Negro mer-
chants into helpful contact with the
white business men of their COM
munities.
The campaign conducted in St.
Louis last year made possible the en-
ployment of more than one hundred
additional colored men and women in
Negro stores and business organiza-
tions. and showed an average of thir-
ty per cent increase in their gross
business.
Local Negro Business Leagues in
various parts of the country are TAX
ing an active interest in the campaign
and 1t is expected that when the Ma
tional League meets for the annual
session in Tulsa, OKLA, August 1920
and 21 that the reports will show
even more progress than has been
previously reported.
The booklet as distributed from
Tuskegee Institute contains valuable
information for business enterprises.
National Negro Business Week will
be observed by all Twin Cities busi-
ness men. In order to boost this
campaign in st. Paul, the following
will address congregations in the va
rious churches Sunday: o. c. Hall,
Evan Anderson, E. A. Carter, F. d.
McCracken and o. J. Smith.

Something to

THE OLD CIRCLE
By F. n. WALKER

THE natural inclination in man.

The carrier pigeon flies straight to
his destination; the horse goes unguid-
ed through the darkest night to his
stable
man may have genius or merely
ordinary talent, but if he cannot move
straight ahead, think clearly and keep
his mind upon his work, he is plodding
round and round, arriving at the end
Of the year at about the same spot
from which he started, befuddled 4

temporary shock to his numb senslbil-
tiles, lasting, perhaps day or two
but producing in him no material
change for the better.
If any serious doubt as to his abil
ity should come to him at such time
as this, 1t is instantly banished as
too burdensome, and he continues his
aimless trot in the old circle.
He doesn't ask himself whether he
Is dependable, whether he thinks con
structively or whether he thinks at
ALL
He doesn't ask whether he is given
to watching the clock and stealing
away frequently from his work to in

He doesn't ask whether he in all
his time in his present position has
made a single suggestion OF value to
his employer.
All, no he has the faculty of avoid
ing duteous obligations, especially
those that would be likely TO impose
upon him an additional stroke Of
work, or interfere with his plans for
pleasure among his night associates.
Such man is not qualified for
straight thinking or straight going
He is not capable of handling things
with intelligence and in the depths
Of his heart he knows 1t.
He is failure, and for no other
