GOLF DIvOTs
BY Jimmy Lee

Well, the Keller open has just
been played and, believe you me,
there was certainly some golf
shooting there those five days Of
play. Certainly was a pity none
of our boys were entered. I had
hoped that "Pat" Ball from Chi
cago would enter, but he failed to
show. "Pat" played in the tourna-
ment three years ago and made
quite an impression on the golf
bugs around this neck of the
country. "Pat," as I have so often
said before, is really the cream of
the crop among our golfers, and I
am certain he would have given
the boys a run for the "cash," had
he come. incidentally, Harry Coop
er, who has the first prize three
out of seven of the existing years,
was first again, after a playoff
with Dick Metz also of Chicago.
Yes, such good golf also inspires
our local lads. Charles Noble shot
81 Sunday out at Hiawatha;
Johnny Williams shot SO; "Hezzy"
Allen had an IS; JIMMY Hughes

good, or will I find another boy
friend?
ANS: Yes, this person does mean
you a lot of good; he is in love
with you and will do much for you.
I would advise you to keep his
friendship.
H. B.: Will I make my trip this
summer as I have planned?
ANS: Yes, you will take this
trip as planned, and see it will be
successful one.
B. E. j.: Please tell me what is
wrong with me and my husband;
he is not good to me; does he love
me?
ANS: Yes, your husband does
love you. He has very funny
way that you will have to get &C
customed to, then you will get
along much better.
-. j.: VIII my husband and l be
successful if we go to Detroit; will
my son and his wife be successful
also?
ANS: I would advise you and
your husband to stay where won
are; a change at the present time
would not be advisable. I do not
see that your son would want to
leave.
B. B.: I would like to know if
will ever see my brother again;
will he return home safe again?
ANS: I am sorry, but I do not
see your brother ever coming back
home again.

REV. H. W. Bolts, the popular
pastor of the large and spacious
Zion Baptist Church Of Minneapo-
lis. He has been pastor of Zion for
eight years, during which time he
has proved himself to be a faithful
friend to all and a helpful advisor
both in spiritual and community
affairs. I was very graciously re-
ceived by the Reverend and his
charming wife and daughter. His
answers, I know, will be of interest
to all.
1. Where were you born? Ans.
In the State of Missouri.
2. Where did you attend school?
Ans. Theological course at West
ern Baptist College.
8. In this day and age, how do
you think young people react to-
wards religious instruction? Ans.
I think they react very we'll if that
instruction is given in a way that
they apprehend.
4. What first attracted you to
your wife? Ans. Her congeniality.
5. Are you superstitious about
anything? Ans. Not at all.
6. What was the happiest day in
your life? Ans. The happiest day,
I presume, in my life was my first
definite call to a church.
7. What age is the best age to
enjoy life? Ans. I would say be-
tween the ages Of 25 and 40.
8. Do you believe that minister
should interest himself in the civic
welfare of his people? Ans. I do.
9. In your opinion, what state Of
fers the best opportunity for the
trained Negro? Ans. I am of the
opinion that the state of New York
really offers the best opportunity
for the trained Negro.
10. What is your secret ambi-
ton? Ans. For an inimitable lead
ership.
II. What is your favorite recrea-
ton? Ans. Hunting and fishing.
The Breakfast given by MARIE
HUGHES out at st. Croix River
near Saltwater for ELIZABETH
ANDERSON was a big success.
The food was swell, the seen
cry beautiful and the convicts
truckin' around on the penitentiary
grounds made a doubly interesting
view. Some went fishing, some
swimming and boating and others
sat around under the trees gazing
at each other. The dance in st.
Paul at the Rainbow Gardens was
very we'll attended by large num-
Der of the popular members of the
younger set. I saw PETE
THATCHER looking as good as
ever. ALTHEA DOUGLAS,
HELEN BENNER, ADELE Ora
HAM and HELEN MANN were
all attractively gowned. DICK
MANN, GEORGE BROOKS,
EVERETT VAUGHN, RICHARD
SESSIONS and RAY JOHNSON
seemed to be having a ball. E.
Everyone in the Twin Cities was
very shocked and grieved to hear
of the sudden death of one of our
well-known boys of the younger
set, KENNETH CARTER. Ken
meth was well beloved by everyone
and in our hearts the memory of
him will be cherished and shall live
on forever. We, who are left be-
hind, may take consolation in this
eternal truth
"There is no death! the stars go
down r.:
To rise upon some fairer shore"
Well, friends, I'll have to be get
ting along and until next week, I
am still,
Your friend,
SAL.

Smith, Pearl Gilbert, Minnie Wallis

were among the fems who were the
Minneapolis attractions. King Tut

other silly doo-dads were fashion
able. J.. The Episcopal picnic was
the big social event of the summer,
and everybody went out on the
train to Parker's Lake where the
picnic was usually given. :. was
in pigtails and was a cheer-leader
over at Jefferson Junior High
School. Later on after the dis
posal of the pigtails: The Union
picnic at the Falls brought out new
dresses and all of the girls and

Ollie Grantham was at a Union
picnic. He had on Knockers, blue
socks and a blue sweater. Re-

later on at College Inn such names
as: Claude Black, John Pinkett,

on the Hollow Inn over in st. Paul
and that night club upstairs on
University which had such a short

At the dance at Harriet Island
t'other night, one gentleman aston
ished onlookers in the dance pavil-
lion by sitting down smack bang
in the middle of the dance floor
and directing the orchestra from
that raw-ther unusual position.
Whether it was giggle-soup or
merely a very human desire to do
something different remains a
question, but the brother sure was
enjoying himself whatever may
have been his reason. I'd like to
try it sometime. No foolin'!

STEEL ACTIVITY
UP2.2P0INTS
TO 72.2 PCT.

Steel ingot production this week
is scheduled at 1872 per cent of ca
pacity, according to the American
Iron and Steel Institute. This is
the highest rate since that Of the
week of June 20, when the rate was
"a per cent.
AS this latter period was only q
five-day week, because Of the July
4 holiday, it is not considered
strictly comparable. The rate for
the current week is the highest for
a six-day period since May, 1880,
when production was scheduled at
1877 per cent.
The current weeks rate COM
pares with 10 per cent last week.
The increase at % points this
week over last is equivalent to 81
per cent over last weeks scheduled
output.
The rate for the week Of July
81 was tbs per cent of capacity
since when the rate had declined
to last weeks level by easy stages.
Officials Of the steel institute
had no positive explanation for
the increase in the present weeks
operations, but they thought there
had been an increase in orders OF
pipe for the oil industry.

Grains were mixed in forenoon

Near noon wheat was 1s to 3sc

Bullish crop news and the strong

being highest in II years, contin-
ued to attract buying of corn,
especially the nearby delivery.
A sharp upward revision in the
Canadian wheat crop by a private

Prices involved in the transactions con-

Various Streets Recall
Romance In Old London

Romance is permanently en-
thrOned in many an unpretentious
London and suburban street, says
a writer in Tit-Bits Magazine.
Cade Road, Blackheath, marks the
spot where Jack Cade, the notori-
Gus Kentish rebel, camped for a
period with his ragamufin bat
talon, armed with scythes and
pitchforks. Nearby Is Wat Tyler
road, preserving an equally tempeS-
tuous memory of the leader Of the
Peasants Revolt.
Racing mems memories viii be
stimulated by Becher street, Not
ting Dale, which is named after
Captain Martin Becher, founder of
the famous Grand National jump.
While cricketers exploring Ken
singtOn will feel legitimate pride
on discovering buildings named
after such masters of their craft
as Hornby, Key, Blythe, Kilner,
and Lord Alverstone.
CULVER Street, ROtherhithe, COM
memorates a hero Of fiction; two
great soldiers have their names
perpetuated by General Gordon
place, WOolwich, and General WOle
road, Blackheath; and the Harold
estate, Bermondsey, is derived from
q royal manor, held on this spot
by King Harold before the Norman
Conquest. These examples Of street
romance are taken from an L. @. @.
publication.
