The goth annual Grand Easter
Ball will be given Monday evening,
April Is, 1927, at the Arcadia Dane
ing Palace, Fifth St., opposite the
Court House in Minneapolis, under
the auspices of Pride of Minnesota
Lodge No. S, Knights of Pythias.
All of the Twin City X. of P.'s
have combined to make this affair a
delightful pleasure to all, according
to Mr.. E. L. Boyd, general chair
man. For many years this organiza-
tiOn has been foremost in fraternal
work and has always provided clean
and respectful entertainment for the
public.
The X. P.'s have picked the Area
dia dancing palace to hold their an
nual ball because it is known to be
one of the largest and prettiest halls
in Minneapolis. Another point which
they have given a great deal of con-
sideration is to hold the ball at that
hall which is centrally located and
convenient to all car and bus lines

Pretty Race Models Display
Latest Styles Dressed in
Smart Clothes Furnished by
.Askin and Marine.

The busiest lady in the city of Min
neapolis on Thursday evening, April
IL, was Madame Walker, directing
her Style Review at the South Side
Auditorium, given by the Askin-Ma-
rine Company, clothiers.
From the minute Miss Eileen
Moore, one of the pretty models, led
the fashion promenade, the hundreds
of eager spectators stood gazing in
awe. A group of pretty girls, includ-
ing Cecil Johnson, Edna Miller, Lou
Belle Sisson, Minnie Poston, Lorena
Gordon, Henrietta Coins, Stella
Palmer, and Irene Williams display
ed just how, when and where the
pretty styles of clothing should be
worn. Catherine and James Carter
displayed the kiddies' clothes.
Bathing Beauties.
Jennie Cason, Lorena Gordon,
Marie Miller, Eileen Moore and Stella
Palmer, as bathing beauties, were
clean out of this world, just like on
the Atlantic City Board Walk. Mrs.
Henrietta Coins proved that stout
girls are still in vogue. 1t was

er when she appeared all in blue.
Lou Belle Sisson showed just how
keen women can look in snug fitting
light coats, with small fur collars.
Howard Walker and Willie Hawkins
were models for the mems wear.
The Hollywood spot light of "That
Man Smith," the artistic photogra-
pher, was played on the models, dis
tinctly bringing out the lines of each
costume.
Show Success.
The entire show was staged and
enacted with the preciseness of clock
work. Mr.. Reed, manager of the
Minneapolis branch of Askin and
Marine, was present with the entire
store force. Style shows with the
Askin and Marine Company are a
-seasonable custom and for this rea-
son it has become regular routine
work.
The clothing problems of millions
of families have been solved by the
modern approved method of the AS
kin and Marine Co., during their
thirty-two years of business in their
forty-five stores.

Reports on Progress Made By Local Negroes
Made AT ST. Paul Urban League Annual Meeting

denim the Negro of st. Paul to menial
jobs forever and deprive the children
who are coming out of our schools
of chance to work. We have waged
a relentless fight to keep the ground
which was gained in the past and to
advance. Success has been achieved.
In a measure we have kept pace with
the growing industrialism of st.
Paul. We have opened the Ford
Plant, The American Radiator Plant,
The Lowry Hotel to colored men, and
we have built up a group of white
friends willing to aid us in the fight
for industrial recognition"
Mr.. Carter mentioned the Visiting
House-keepers' work being done by
the Women's Auxiliary of the Urban
League and the fine record it had
made under the presidency of Mrs.
R. F. Wilson, and the program which
was being carried out by Mrs. Con-
stance Anderson, the present head of
the Auxiliary.

Operate Million Farms
Holds That the Negro Is Now
An Asset Instead of a
Liability.

(By Ino ASSOclaLeQ negro FreSS)
St. Paul, Mimi, April 15.-In ad-
dresses delivered at Minot and Far
go, North Dakota, also st. Paul, Min
nesota, to large audiences of white
Methodists, Secretary I. Garland
Penn, Cincinnati, Ohio, representing
the Board of Education of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, said that
many questions involving the status
of Negroes in the United States and
their possibilities, had been settled.
Questions Discussed.
The present day questions were
recognition of racial rights and priv
ileges on the basis of progress made;
the protection of life and property
thus visualizing in acceptance and
practice, the Amendments to the
Constitution and recent United States
Supreme Court decisions thereon;
equal educational opportunities; the
right to earn a living anywhere in
any honest and legitimate way; JUS
tice in the courts; proper housing
and sanitation; and cessation of
exploiting Negroes in excessive rent
ais, North and South, because many
of them were weak and could not
help themselves.
He told how education had helped
not only the Negro, but was con-
tribution to the progress of all, as
the Negro was now an asset instead
of a liability.
Manufacturers Record.
He quoted the manufacturers rec
ord of Baltimore, Md, as in support
of his position, as follows:
Negroes have been no negligible
or inconsequential labor element in
this country. Negro labor supplies
one-seventh of all workers in the
United States. Negroes operate a
million farms, one-fourth of which
they own themselves. One-third of
all iron and steel workers and one
tenth of all railway workers are Ne
groes. The accumulated wealth of
Negroes increased from $4,000, 900
in 1886 to $1,500,000,0O0 in 1920.
In 1922, 523 Negroes received the
B. A. Degree and 20 the degree of
M. A. from American Colleges and
universities"
