Garfield Inter.
To Operate A
Summer School

1t is definitely settled that Gar
field will operate as it did last sea-
son with a summer session for
ambitious pupils of this commune
ty in the intermediate grades and
with such elementary subjects as
the younger pupils require.
With the. general Improvement in
employment and finances, il is ex-
pected that there will be more pu-
pills this year than previously who
will avail themselves of this op-
portunity to advance in their stu
dies. The privilege of redeeming
credits lost by failure, absence,
etc, is also offered by the summer
school. Then, too, pupils who wish
to attend classes merely to streng-
then their preparation for the fall
term and to extend their training
cut short by the nine and one half
month school year will find the
eight weeks of summer school an
excellent means of improving their
leisure time during the long vaca-
ton. Since classes are held in the
morning the pupils will have every
afternoon free as well as several
weeks at the close for vacation.
A careful record has been made
of Garfield pupils who attended
the last summer session and almost
without exception these pupils
have progressed unusually well In
the advanced grade to which they
were promoted by reason of the
summer work. Nine pupils who
finished summer school received
diplomas and were promoted to the
lob grade. Among the nine were
Aurel Grecian, Tot Peoples and
Oma Budish who made an A record.
Pupils in other grades making an
A record include Joyce Dancer,
Arsulia Talley, Louis Young, Seles-
ter Heard, and Helen Nelson. All Of
the other summer school pupils
made wholly satisfactory records
according to the marks they re-
ceived for the first term ending
January, 1886. In fact the record
of marks of all summer school pu-
pills in January, 1886, compared
with their marks of last June
Q935) show an average increase
of nearly one-half mark.
Tuition charges will be the same

Wayne County farmers and
workers got away to a great start,
Sunday, April 10, to build our
ship of State" by organizing a
new national party. The organic
ing conference was held at st. An
drews Hall, 431 Il. Congress street.
Every minute of that eight-hour
day bristled with business of build
ing a new party. Because or It's
grave need, because OF the tragic
blunders and crushing failures OF
the Democratic and Republican
Parties, and because Of the Gala
mites prevailing throughout our
country, those constructive labors
were filled with unusual promise
for the new way for the new hui
mainly. Political Revival" is the
only proper label to describe the
acts and actors of those charged
and surcharged eight hours. The
patriotic citizens who lived and
shared in the birth event multiple
ed their lives nightly.
Peoples Party
OF this colorful assembly of all
races and sexes and varieties OF
working groups, there was assemb-
led and welded together, the Far
mer-Labor Party of Wayne Coun-
ty, Michigan. From the doctrines
broadcasted, the platform was
built, plank by plank, the standing
committees named and the officers
elected. The large number of far
mer and labor organizations parti-
cipating left with the convictions,
naturally abounded, that our ma
ton has again a Real Representa-
tive Peoples Party, prepared to
take charge and operate efficiently
our government of the people by
the people and for the people.
Facts and Figures
The largest body Of delegates re-
presented trade unions, there being
SO Wayne County, organizations
and two district labor councils, the
United Auto Workers of A. F. and
L., and the Painters District Coun-
Gil, No. %. One of the most i'm
passioned speakers represented a
farmers union. He declared,
"Chaos fills our country. This de-
structive condition forces all for
ward-looking farmers to march
side by side with their brother city
workers, to inviting and vital vic

Reckless drivers are like little
children standing on their heads
before company-just braggarts
trying to attract attention. Reck-
less drivers, for the most part. are
Tools who endanger their lives and
the lives of others by their crazy
operation OF automobiles.
Do you happen to fall info this
category? Do you daily risk your
life and imperil others by weaving
In and out Of traffic In order to
save a few seconds.
Examine your concience and see
II you are guilty. All of the good
work that safety engineers have
accomplished will be for naught.
II We keep driving madly through
traffic, without regard for our
lives and the lives Of others.
Be honest now. What are you 90
Ing to do with those few seconds
that you may save by rlsking your
life? Better take 1t a little slower,
and you will live longer.

METHODIST
jim CROW IS
DEFENDED

NEW YORK-The proposed seq
regation of Negroes in the plan Of
unification of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church is debated pro and con
in the May issue of the The Crisis.
The plan providing for a sepa-
rate Negro conference is defended
by the Rev. Robert Moten Williams
of Washington, ID. c., while the plan
is opposed by the Rev. Charles Car
rington of New York City.
DR.. Williams contends that the
Negro Methodist will be able to
take larger share of the leader
ship in the Methodist church under
the separate conference and that
they will not be submitting to any
more segregation than now exists
in tho church.
DR.. Darlington opposes the sepa-
ration on the ground that ii will
make separation according to race
and color a permanent part of the
constitution and law of the Metho-
dist church, contrary to christian
principles and to democracy. The
two articles are carried side by
side in The Crisis and deal with
all the arguments advanced by
both sides in the debate which has
been raging over the country since
the plan was announced some
months ago. The plan is to be de-
bated at the general conference of
the M. e. church in Columbus Ohio
this month.
Another article in the May Girls
is is "Alf Landon as l know Him"
by Roy Garvin. The Governor of
Kansas, who is a candidate for the
nomination for Presi-
dent is the subject of short
sketch by a native Negro Kansan
who tells what colored people in
Kansas think of Landon.

with u. S. Route 421, formerly N. G.

to Spruce Pine and Micaville to Tsoute
