1.-THE survey has definitely shown
the need for continued intensive
program of the National Negro Bus
iness League in the education of our
business men and women in business
methods of buying, selling, display
advertising, budget-making and re-
cord keeping" the report states.
"The field work has thoroughly
convinced hundreds of our business
men that the National Negro Bust
ness League is rendering a valuable
service to them and to the nation in
its effort to encourage and stimulate
better and larger businesses operat-
ed by Negroes"
"This survey is mirror for Ne

Hoover Still Silent On
Negro Employment

NEW YORK.-President Hoover
though protesting through one Of
his secretaries to have taken steps
in the direction of procuring a fair
chance on public work for Negroes
as requested by the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of Col
ored People, has failed to reply to
a letter and telegram inquring pre-
cisely what he has done.
The original appeal to the Presi-
dent, broadcast by the N.A.A.C.P. on
September 10, brought a telegram
from Lawrence Riehey, secretary to
the President, reading:
"Your telegram of today's date re
ceived. The President some time ago
took steps in the direction you men
ton"
The N.A.A.C.P. in expressing
thanks inquired by letter on Sept
ember y, asking precisely W h I
steps the President had taken. This
letter remaining unanswered, the N
A.A.C.P. on September 81, wired Mr..
Riehey as follows:
"May we have answer our letter
September II asking information on
steps taken by President to assure
Negroes proportionate share employ
ment on government financed pro
iects? We would like to include thii
in release going to colored press Fri
day of this week.
To this telegram no answer ha
yet been received.

What a Prodigy Misses

Child prodigies, generally speaking,
are more to be pitied than admired.
Joanna Xenos, Z, who went from the
first to the eighth grade of school in
the one year that she has attended
the Chicago public schools undoubt-
eddy has superb intelligence quota.
But Just the same she is decidedly
out of her class. Having such q swift
mental development it would be even
more cruel to keep her confined in a
primary room than it is to let her
take the place with those her age as
far as her mind is concerned.
The pity rests in the fact that now
and then a child, by some strange
mental freak, gets cheated out Of
childhood because he is too bright.
In after years, when his normal con-
temporaries have caught up with him
no one will care that he was very
bright boy or girl as a child. He
won't, either.
He will just remember that he
missed out on hide-and- go-seek and
jumping ropes and marbles because
his mind kept thinking about the
law of diminishing returns and CAL
culus or something else that children
have no business being bothered with,

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
The Child with Side Ache

Tell the anxious mother whose lit
tie girl gets q "side ache" when walk
ing, to have the child stoop over,
carefully pick up stone and exclaim
"Phutt-phutt-phutt!" to the under
side Of the stone and replace 1t as it
was, and the ache will leave. That's
what we used to do when we were
kids.-(Mrs. E. B. c.
Answer-Thank you. Sounds like
a sensible idea.
Quackery In Shoe Store
Our II months old baby has a ten
dency to bow-leggedness. We took
her into IS shoe store and
bought shoes for her. They built
up the outer edges of the soles and
they said that would correct the con-
dition. Also they showed us how to
massage her legs every day -
(F. P. b.
Answer-And did the benevolent
chief clerk give her prescription
for a good tonic, too?
X-ray Men Should Make Up Purse
My daughter had plantar warts.
Our physician said X-ray treatments
were the only cure, and it would take
from one to maybe five treatments,
at IS a treatment. Feeling I could
not afford this I decided to see what
the Whitfield ointment would do,
that you recommend for ringworm
or trench foot. After five applica-
tions the warts dropped away. Her
foot now is all healed.-(Mrs. G. W.
Answer-I do not advise the use of
the ointment for such purpose. So

plating chipping in to buy a little

me and my heinous work, I beg them

THE LITTLE CHURCH

New York, May 23.-The Little
Church Around the Corner. now a
pastoral pastel in spring hues against
its hulking, leaden neighbcrs, re-
mains a seismograph of the nations
romantic disturbances.
And are there quakings and quiv-
erings in the torrid heart zones?
Superficial analysis of the charts
would indicate that young men and
maids, content to flirt with the dawn
and dance away the night when
times were more careless, are begin
ming to relax into serious romance
and matrimony.
There are further indications that
Cupid Ltd, will be up about 10 points
by June.
Whatever the status OF legal tend
or. there's plenty of legal tenderness!
Last year, the Little Church linked
more than 1000 couples. And no
signs OF depression at the moment.
In order to take care of the Hy-
mental rush, answer the thousands
of questions and attend to requests
of oldsters and newsters. a busy lit
tie marriage factory functions be-
hind the serene and soothing eXte-
rior of the big towns far-famed

DDS have been adopted to meet the
flood of demands for information of
fees, rituals and the like. A bust
