Four men whose homes are in
various parts of the country held an
unusual meeting in st. Petersburg,
Fla, last winter. E. L. Wolfe, z. X.
Greene, A. w. Kaufman, and W. A.
McMullen by name, they were total
strangers to each other, but they
had one thing in common: the gift
Of speech, once seemingly lost for
ever, had been returned to them by
science. That boon bound them to-
gether as no ordinary ties Of &C
quaintanceship could ever do.
Each OF the four had lost the
power of speech through the re-
moval of the vocal cords by surgi-
cal operation. Each had later learned

Mary Lee Parks
Active Citizen
To Leave City

One of the most active and infu-
entail young matrons of st. Paul
will leave this city next Thursday
when Mrs. Mary Lee Parks, wife
of Rev. A. Parks, leaves for Os-
kaloosa, Iowa, where Rev. Parks
will pastor.
Mrs. Parks has been very active
in the church, fraternal, social and
civic life of the Twin Cities. She
has served as secretary of Co
rinthian Temple of the S.M.T.'s,
in various offices in the Como Tenn
pie of Daughter Elks and in the
Sunday School and Christian En-
deavor sections of st. James AME
church. Her chief forte has been
her effective work with the chill
dren. She has served as senior
mother of the Como Temple Ju-
venile Elks.
Many regrets have been heard on
all sides because of her leaving the
city. Her husband, Rev. Parks, has
been one Of st. Paul's most sincere
and active young dvines. Both will
be much missed.

Won Como Temple
Award

Miss Nadine Davis, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Sam Davis of 2O2
E. 18th St., st. Paul, won the
bicycle contest sponsored by the
Como Temple Daughter Elks. The
picnic this contest helped to
popularize was a great success.
Miss Davis is grateful to friends
who assisted her.
The Juvenile Elks will hold q
picnic at Harriet Island, Monday,
July 6. Mrs. Mary Lee Parks,
senior mother, who is leaving for
oskaloosa, Iowa, Thursday, will
supervise her last group of young

ynxes for the ability to converse.
The artificial larynx was devel-
oped at the Bell Telephone Lab
oratories, is manufactured by the
Western Electric Company, and is
made available to sufferers from
such operations through the asso-
ciated companies OF the Bell Tele-
phone System without profit, at the
cost Of manufacture.
The meeting Of these four men
was brought about by an item in a
st. Petersburg newspaper which de-
scribed how Mr.. Kaufman had lost
his voice and then regained it. The
other three saw the article and each
went, Independently, to see Mr..
Kaufman. Thus was born this un-
usual friendship. -
The same newspaper article was
instrumental in aiding a woman
resident of st. Petersburg, who did
not know of the artificial larynx,
to discover that there was hope that
she also might regain the power Of
speech.
