Health and
Hygiene
By DR.. w. D. Brown
IMPETIGO CONTAGIosA

Most skin diseases are not con-
tagious because there is no infec-
tious process involved; but impeti
go is very contagious because it is
characterized by the presence of
thin-walled vesicles and pustules
which are teeming with germs.
These vesicles and pustules are
thin-walled and therefore break
easily discharging these germs
over the surface of the skin. These
germs are spread to other portions
of the skin by the hands or
clothes or are deposited on some
one elses skin in this manner with
a resultant infection unless great
care is taken. The most common
place of involvement is the face.
Children seem to be more sus-
ceptible than adults, although the
latter are so infected occasionally,
especially, where there occur
bruises to the skin in the presence
of dirt or grease. Fortunately,
however, this skin disease does not
leave scars as only the surface is
involved. The crusts, which form
from the yellowish discharge of the
pustules, fall off and leave a red
oozing surface beneath.
Treatment is simple but must be
thorough. Cleansing with warm
soda and water frequently and the
application of a mild antiseptic
ointment is usually satisfactory.
On the other hand, some cases are
very persistent and require more
radical treatment.

BETHESDA BAPTIST

Some time ago Rev. w. E. Wad-
ington and two of his deacons went
over to St. Paul to take part in
the ordination of a young minister
(white). Last Sunday that same
young minister, Rev. Robert To-
bert, preached his first sermon fol-
lowing his ordination at the morn
ing service at Bethesda. The young
man was accompanied by his
mother and brother. His mother
was very proud and she had rea-
son to be, for her boy proved him
self to be a worthy disciple, a
student who had prepared himself
to deliver a worth while message.
All present enjoyed listening to
him and later every one wished
him Godspeed on his further jour
ney into the ministry. At the eve
ming service our own pastor
brought the message. The Gospel
chorus sang the music at each ser
vice.
Sunday school was enjoyed by
a few more than the usual num-
Der and each Sunday the number
of the communicates grows. The
B. Y. P. U. service was interest
ing, also, though the young peo-
pie were conspicuous by their alb
sence. The officers believe that
while they may sow, the Lord
must bring the increase, so they
are not discouraged because of the
lack of appreciation shown by
those who should, in the nature
of things, show the greatest in
terest. All in all, we feel that our
church is making progress in the
right direction.
ST. PETER A. NJ. E. CHURCH
Rev. Carlyle F. Stewart who has
been reappointed for another year,

his soul-stirring sermons. 1t is
hoped that all members and friends
will cooperate in this administra-
ton that we may have success
full year. The pastor went to the
Chicago conference but will be in
his pulpit Sunday morning. Brother
Fred D. Parkinson was ordained
at the conference at Waterloo and
is now a local Deacon and is en-
titled to Reverend.
The Young Peoples League will
be organized at $50 P. M. We
hope you will attend and make this
the League of the city. Mrs. D.
Phelan is the teacher for the Bible
class which meets in the audi
torium of the Church at $3.50.

NEAL SEES FUNERAL
DIRECTORS CONVENTION
Continued from Page u

cipating them from economic slav-
cry.
Hundreds of Negro business men
have been crucified by a destruc-
tive element who in order to as
sist some unqualified individual
and in their misguided attempt to
give him what they call his chance
in life they are willing to propa-
ganda against well organized in
stitution which is of real credit and
benefit to the community.
The individual who is without
training and experience is hkened
unto the old adage "Fools rush in
where Angels fear to trod." He
rushes into business without capi-
tai or experience in a community
which is being well served by
trained and experienced men, over
crowding and accomplishing little
for himself but doing untold dam
age to the community.
These individuals do not go into
business to get business, but to
follow the urgings of this same de-
structive element of the people,
who because of jealousy and lack
of constructive thinking do harm
to the community. Trained and
experienced men do not do this,
they investigate and weigh the
possibilities of success. Many very
excellent displays were on exhibit.
Three all Negro manufacturers of
burial and chemical supplies were
represented and their displays
equalled those of three nationally
known white manufacturers.
Two Negro schools of embalming
gave demonstrations which were
of the finest order. Strange that
one would have to leave the north
and go south to learn something.
It was well evidenced that the Ne
groes of the south appreciate and
support a member of their race,
in any line of business, who shows
ability and gives them real first
class service. There it isn't a case
of friendship so far as business is
concerned, merit alone counts.
Socially Cincinnati put it over.
There were trips up and down the
beautiful Ohio river and parties,
receptions and picnics every day
for our enjoyment.
To cap the climax, after the in
stallation of officers, Cincinnati
turned out socially, women beauti-
fully gowned and men correctly
dressed to attend a grand ball
given at it's most beautiful ball
room where fifteen hundred danced
to the music of the famous Duke
Ellington. 1t was with many re-
grets we left the convention and
carried with US pleasant memories
of Cincinnati.
This news was omitted last week
because of a lack of space.-Ed.
Mr.. William A. Hanna of $40 N.

SURVEY SHOWS
NEGRO VICTIM

NEW YORK CITY (ANPl =
How the Negro is Disseminated
against and Inundated and his re-
action to such treatment were dis
closed in survey made by the
Methodist Federation for Social
Service, the findings of which we're
made public here Monday.
The survey was carried on un-
der the direction of DR.. Harry F.
Ward, of Union Theological Sem
mary and Miss Winifred l. Chap
pell, secretary of the Methodist
Federation and the purpose of it
was to discover If possible the Ne
gro's attitude toward the Unifica-

Methodist Church which carries
with a segregated Negro confer
ence.
According to this survey the Ne

communicates viii resent any at
tempt to establish a segregated
conference. It further declares
that while the Negroes are pro-
verbally docile, now there is great
ferment going on in the Negro po-
pulation both North and South"
To substantiate this claim, the
survey points out the efforts on
the part Of the racial group to Sc
cure the passage of the Costigan-
Wagner anti-lynching bill now be-

ton of Negroes in the Share-Crop-

an 'interracial restaurant" at the
University Of Illinois in order to
afford Negro students eating ia
cilities near the campus, and the
widespread interest manifested by
the group in the Italo-Ethiopian
conflict.
Concluding the survey states:
There is much opposition to the
proposed Unification Plan on the
part of Negro youth leaders of the
country and the rank and file of
Negro preachers. They deplore
segregation within the gates of

TURK ASSISTS
ETHIOPIAN ARMY

Adds ABABA CAMP -Some-
where in the southern front zone,
about 225 miles behind the fight
ing line, a gnarled little Turk sits
all day long, studying his maps,
talking with black soldiers, and
drinking cup after cup of black
Turkish coffee.
From his sunburned, leathery-
skinned face perspiration rains in
streams. A strange, dumpy wool
en- cap is on his head, and no mat
ter what is the temperature, the
cap never leaves.
He is Wehib Pasha, known as
Eagle Beak," survivor of a score
Of battles, the brains behind the
southern Ethiopian armies. The
nominal commander-in-chief, Ras
Nasibu, does not give a single or
der without first consulting him.
His hatred of the Italians is fam
atical. He fought them in Libya.
Three months ago he said, Zee
Italians, zey are children. ley can
not fight. My men are re best in
zee world. ley will have zee Ital-
ians for breakfast"
Reverses suffered lately have
not substantially altered his con-
viction. Today he says, "zey are
not SO bad, but my men will beat
zem if zey keep togezzer."
BY "togszzer" Pasha does not
mean that mass formations are ne
cessary for Ethiopian victory. He
would be the last one to advocate
such method of fighting. He re-
fers to loyalty following the break
up of Ras Desta's army on the
southern front. Eagle Beak has
been pleading with his friend, EN-
peror Halle Selassie, to break up
all the armies and place them I'M
der minor chiefs.
He really wants Ethiopia to re-
vert to the old time fighting of the
great Menelik's day, to guerilla
warfare in which small bands ha-
rass the invaders.
II know zee Italians" he says
decrying Facist courage. when
zey know where zee enemy is, zey
are not so bad. but when black
men come from zee left, zee right
and behind, making noises like all
zee devils in hell. ali, Eat ees diff
