Citizenship

Very soon the political pot will be
boiling. All classes of men, and
women too, with political ambitions
will actively engage in Saving the
country or pledging the return of
prosperity" l wonder if we realize
just how important and how sacred
gift, the ballot is to the citizen Of
color. I wonder if we are deeply
concerned about our political status.
Small, though we are in numbers,
every vote counts, and every Negro
should make it his business to learn
all he can about his local affairs.
The Chicago Whip gives this sound
much needed advice:
"The colored citizen who votes in
the north by virtue of constitutional
amendments and strict adherence TO
this basic doctrine is encompassed
with positive power to improve him.
self as we'll as his country. The BIG,
and broad issues of the day cannot
be ignored by voters. He defeats
his own progress by shrinking away
from active politics as if it were
an unclean and unholy thing. He
should know the intrinsic value of
his own vote and the force of his
conviction.
Every good citizen should learn

something of the wards he lives in.
He should know of the schools, the
Fairgrounds, the libraries, the streets,
the alleys, the zoning laws, the trans
portation and the representation that
his ward receives in local govern
ment. He should know who his
committeeman is and what he stands
for, he should know his alderman,
his history, his public service and his
means and methods whereby he has
gained ascendency. He should know
his precinct, the number of votes
therein and the captains. He should
know the temper and character of
the block in which he lives. He
should know of police powers and
available protection afforded him.
He should know who his Congress
man is and what are the metes and
bounds of his immediate COMPRESSION
al district. He likewise should be
acquainted with the limits of his
senatorial districts and who his rep
resentatives in the state legislature
are and what they stand for.
When these things are learned the
scheme of American politics will be
more clearly understood and the pow
er of every mans vote can be COM

such knowledge the colored voter
will bring about better conditions in

RODDY COMPARES NEWSPAPER
TO RESTAURANT BILL-OF-
FARE
Editor TWIN CITY HERALD:

You go into restaurant of hoteG
pick up bill-of-fare, which shows a
variety of things to eat, from which
you may choose. You do not order
anything on the bill; but you do order
just what you think you would like to
eat Then you pay, come out of the
restaurant feeling somewhat salts
fed. That is, so far as the hungry
feeling is concerned. Now, here is a
point for the editors consideration.
You are more indebted to the
restaurant for the victuals that you
have eaten to satisfy your hunger
than the restaurant keeper is to you,
for the price you have paid for that
meal. Our girls and boys go to the
city schools and university in order
to get an education. Our young men
and women therefore more obligated
to the institutions of learning for their
education than the institutions are to
them.
We have our churches and ministers,
and our Sunday schools and prayer
meetings and Sunday schools for our
moral and religious training and char
acter, than the churches and ministers
are to us. So also is it, with our home
town paper, the "Twin City Herald"
Like the restaurant, the educational
institutions or our colored churches;
the Herald exists for the benefit of
the people of the entire Northwest
and we, the colored people are more
indebted to the Herald, for the vari.
ETY. of news, items of interest, notices
that are essential; than the Herald is
to US; for the small piece of money
that we pay for it.
You could not begin to get the news,
notices and other information, for 7c
Independently; that you get in the
Herald for that amount. A colored
newspaper then, like the restaurant,
university or church, exists for the
benefit of the people in the community.
The Herald then renders service to
it's communicable entire Northwest.

Campus
Personalities
By Nellie DodsOn

Last Wednesday over Z,UUU mill
tary drill students turned out for
formal military drill in Northrup
Field. Those hey-hey officers, booted
and spurred, with swords flashing in
the afternoon sunlight, promenaded
around looking very West Pointish.
There was lot of confusion, what
with late students making life-and-
death dash for their companies be-
fore roll call, with femmes blocking
the sidewalks to look pie-eyed at the
officers, and with folks in sixteen
cylindered cars honking the horns to
warn all of those locomoting under
foot power to run, jump, or fly, out
of the way.
Inside of the field everyone was
so intent on the goings-on, that only
few noticed that far to one side of
the field, BERNIE HERMAN was
leading his first string football men
out for scrimmage. There, almost
under their very noses, football ma
terial for next falls eleven was in
the making.
HERMAN blew his whistle, and
the tustle began. JACK MANDERS,
the big fullback who will be adding
more glory to Minnesota football his
tory not so many months from now,
plowed through his team mates like
cyclone through tissue-paper. In
the autumn months to come, those
very folks who couldn't take their
eyes off sonny boy in his drill outfit,
will be paying pul-enty of good cash
to see Manders smear rival players
all over the gridiron.
The rest of those boys who were
out there will be getting broken
heads, bones, and noses, for dear old
Minnesota, and the crowd will be
PAYING to see it. Radio announc-
ers will be having Mysteries when the
football heroes hold the line at the
5wo-and-one-half yard mark. Man
lers will be swatted on the back until
lis teeth are loose, Biernan will be
eted, quoted, misquoted, interviewed,
and all the rest of the blooey. And
the same folks who overlooked the
little incident of spring practice go
ing on within elbows distance from
them, will be knocking each other
over trying to get even LONG DIS
TANCE view of the boys. WHAT A
LIFE!
Some of the males around these
parts evidently specialize in giving
the femmes "pieces" of their mascu-
line brain matter About half-dozen
brothers thought last weeks little
TRADE concerned them and their af-
fairs with certain young ladies.
FRANCES McHIE and BILL
O'SHIELDS looked very, very nice
in their graduation toys in the cap
and gown march of graduates last
Thursday. FRAN, who always looks
nifty, was just as pretty as she could
be, while BILL was the exact repro
duction of what all athletes should
look like on their graduation day.
RICHARD MORGAN, the co-presi-
dent of the Senior class, and chosen
prom leader who was kidnapped by
what must have been hirelings of
rival campus political groups marched

dressed up in BROWN AND WHITE
SPORT SHOES. A slight abrasion

 Fln- NEXT SEASON

TO effect employment of Alaska labor by canneries operating in this Territory, the Alaska Chamber of Commerce will obtain from can- rery interests information as to the number of workers wanted next eeacon and from member chambers of the Territorial body the number of persons in the various commun- ities that can be relied on to take cannery work.

 At meeting in Juneau of the Board Of Managers of the Alaska Chamber, Executive Secretary M. s. Whittier was asked to write letters to the canneries requesting them to report to the Alaska Chamber the number Of available workers in the various places.
 On receipt of responses from the canneries, the secretary will com 1uunicate with the Chambers of Commerce in the Territory request ing them to survey labor conditions in tn cir respective communities and to state what amount of Alas ka labor they want is guaranteed them.
 The Alaska Chamber is convinced
 that cooperation between cannery interests and Alaska communities
