altogether too valuable institution
to be without. Much good can be
done if the people will only lay aside
petty personal grudges and try to
work together. This thing of saying,
81 can't work with this one or that
one" is foolish. The goodhearted per-
son is willing to step back, or down
in order to see movement succeed.
Inasmuch as there is much personal
prejudice against the leaders in the
battle of 1920" il would be wise
il entirely new leaders be selected
by the people to manage the New
Branch. Both sides should give in"
and reorganize the N. A. A. c. P.
and go on from there.

Several parties have had social af-
fairs at their homes which have not
appeared in the columns of the pa

marriage party, or a big dinner
or other society event.
We are glad to get the news, but we
must have your help in local matters.
Down on lower Broadway where
the colored gentry used to hold forth

community to our detriment. The
"boysr have scattered to separate To-
calities and they will benefit there
by as we'll as tive rest of the race.
"Bunching'' our people in Tacoma
does US no good.
