PARTY AFFAIR-HALLIE @.
BROWN HOUSE-THURSDAY
AND FRIDAY, AUG. 26 81,
500 p, M,

SsUU L. NJ.
Because of a city ordinance pro-
hibiting the blocking of streets in
st. Paul and the difficulty in get
ting proper lighting effects without
too much expense to the commit
tee, The Block Party has been
changed to a carnival at Halle O..
Brown House on the same dates as
have been given for the Block
Party Aug. 26 and 27. The various
activities will be conducted as was
originally planned. Delicious home
made bakery goods will be sold by
the Bakery Committee-Jose Will
iams, chairman.
Hot dogs, pop, candy, cracker
jacks and ice cream.
A ton of coal, magazine rack
and many worthwhile awards to be
given away at the Halle @. Brown
Benefit Carnival which will be held
at the Community House August
26 and 27, instead of the 600 Block
of st. Anthony Avenue. Several
city ordinances prevented having
block party in the manner in which
it was originally planned, conse-
quently a big carnival with many
attractions will take its place.

Benefit Carnival To
Substitute Block Party

AS a part of the affair Evelyn
Kelly is heading a committee that
will put on 15c or 2 for a quar-
ter card party the same night in
the building. Jose Williams is
chairman of Bakery Sale Com
mittee that will have all kinds of
home made goodies for sale.
One entire room will be devoted
to dancing while the more ambi-
tious patrons Of the carnival will
try their skill at winning some
gifts from a widely and varied as
sortment of fine prizes. There will
also be plenty of good things to
eat. The Carnival is being given
to raise $4,000 from our communi-
ty to add to an $4,000 gift to com
plete the cost of $4,000 worth of
remodeling which will be made on
our building beginning August 80.
This carnival is one of perhaps
several affairs. The more support
you give the carnival the fewer
benefits we will have to give to
raise this small amount. You can
make your contribution by patron
izing the carnival and come and
have loads of fun.

AT THE IOWA PICNIC

Taking advantage of the pres
ence in Minneapolis of the Asso-
ciated Iowa clubs, their hundreds
of delegates and the many unique
entertainments planned for their
pleasure, many local people were
able to offer for the entertainment
of their own guests some of the
enjoyable hours made possible by
the out of town visitors. This was
especially evident at the picnic
given Sunday afternoon, August
Is, at Glenwood park where the
visitors assembled by the hundred
for the amusements prepared for
them by the local management.
Numbers of private luncheon
parties merged with the Iowans,
greatly increasing the throng and
adding appreciably to the gaiety
and uniqueness of the occasion.
Like the candid camera man who
busted himself all the afternoon
taking shots of the unconscious
crowd as it ate, visited and lis
tened this correspondent was all
over the confines of the park to
gather items of interest and in
formation for the pleasure of our
readers.
On a knoll just beyond the
speakers stand we found Mr.. and
Mrs. w. M. Smith and their daugh-
ter, Miss Essie R, Mason, enjoy
ing the hospitality of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Wright of Robbinsdale. With
them were Martha and Boyd, chill
dren of the Wrights. At the same
table were Mrs. Fannie Anderson
and her guest, Mr.. VIM. johnson,
together with Mr.. and Mrs. ]. E.
Brown of st. Paul and their four
young children. The table was
bountifully laden.
Further on were Mr.. and Mrs.
Cicero Durdeen, of Chicago, Miss
L. Searcy, also of Chicago, Miss
Josephine Roberts of the same
city, being entertained by Mr.. Ira
Allen, of 1916 4th Avenue South,
whose guests they were.

ROBBINS, ILLINOIS, TOWN
TRUSTEE HERE

Among the convention visitors
was Marcellus Jones, % year town
trustee of Robbins, Ill.
Mr.. Jones, a member of the
Chicago Iowa Club, is an alert
young man who is studying avia-
ton in a Chicago school.
The town of Robbins has 1000
inhabitants, all colored except three
white families. All of the town Of
ficials are Negro.
Mr.. Jones liked Minnesota, he
told reporters.

and Mrs. Mary Short, upon whose
shoulders had rested much of the
important pre-convention work
were seeking rest and refreshment
at the table of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM
Patterson.
Genial Bob Marshall, most ia
nous of northwest football and
baseball experts, who lives at 1850
4th Avenue South, and has been
in the employ Of the Minnesota
State Warehouse Association for
the past 27 years, was found sur
rounded by his family and a bunch
of friends entertaining a distin-
guished guest from Chicago.
This lady, Mrs. Elnora Dunlap, is
prominent in the church and club
life of her city and has travelled
far and frequently in the inter-
ests of that association. Mr.. Dun
lap has been in the Chicago police
department for a period of more
than 35 years.
We ran across a table where
there were so many people par
taking of the many fine delicacies
before them that we forgot to find
out who was entertaining who.
However, we found there Mrs.
Leota Tanner, Mr.. and Mrs. J. W.
Simms, Mr.. and Mrs. E. L. Escue,
and bevy of children having the
time of their young lives.
In contrast we saw Mr.. and Mrs.
j. W. Powell having a quiet din
ner with just their own child and
her chum, Jane Stone, of 419 Col
fax Avenue, for company. Mrs.
PowelPs mother, Mrs. Mary F.
Bundrant, who had been visiting
her daughter, had just returned to
her home in Chicago that very
morning.
M. W. Judy, the Fourth Ave
nue. dentist, was found with a
plate of bread and meat, and we
thought we saw ice cream also,
stealing a little rest and quiet
from his arduous duties in connec-
ton with feeding the hundreds of
visitors. The good doctor had
slipped away from the crowd where
the inroads of his appetite upon
the food would not attract much
attention.
Next we came upon that popular
employe of the Minneapolis Sweet
Shop, Mrs. Ethel Batsell, of 535
James Avenue, who was having a
farewell lunch with friends just be-
fore her departure for Detroit,
Mich, where she will vacation in
definitely. We understand there
is i'll concealed sorrow in the
North Town Emporium. She will
be the guest of Miss Ruby Hayes
during her sojourn in Detroit.
Mrs. Mollie Britain, well known
socialite of Minneapolis of 1921
4th Avenue South, was pleasantly
doing the honors for her house
guests. They were Mrs. Effie LIE
Monde, Mrs. Elizabeth Martin and
Mrs. Lucy Bell Du Pree, all of In
dianapolis, Ind, lunching when we
interrupted.
Frank Peoples, Minneapolis con-
tractor, had as his guest the Rev.
C. A. Nelson, of Magnolia, Ark.
The Reverend is the father of Mrs.
Mason Lewis and Mrs. Gertrude
Banks, two well known Minneapoh-
tans. They were enjoying the
sights and sounds of the picnic
while eating their own private
lunch.
Mrs. L. Reese, of $50 9th Avenue
North, had a most tempting lunch
spread out on the grass as we ap-
preached. It was for her guests

North, Mrs. Dilcie Alternately and
Mrs. Rosie Haywood, of $50 9th
Avenue North, and a group of
ravenous children from their neigh
borhood who were being restrained
and entertained by Master Theo-
dore Garrett, who was having a
fine time doing it.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse Thomas,
3736 4th Avenue South, were I'M
dertaking the biggest task we had
yet caring for % guests.
Among them were the Misses
Sadie Hopkins and Katherine
Reader of Chicago. The balance
were Minneapolis people, all of
them having a very, very large
time.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. B. Levy, 1886 4th
Avenue, were quietly enjoying
themselves in the entertainment of
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Glenn and Mr..
and Mrs. Edward Brown of 4th
Avenue and Miss Blanche Ware of
Chicago. .. :
Mrs. Frances Duncan, 1913 25th
Avenue South, president of the
Phyllis W he tley auxiliary,
stopped me for a moment to intro
duce her guests, Mrs. F. Littlejohn
and Mrs. M. Terry, both from Mil
waukee.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Atkins
brought their guests, Minneapolis
friends, Mrs. E. Payne and Mrs.
R. Gresham, for the outing, serv-
ing a picnic luncheon of their own.
Mr.. and Mrs. L. G. Leverette,
1905 Clinton, and their guests, Mr..
and Mrs. C. Mason and son of Mil
waukee were found strolling
through the park after dinner
meeting many mutual friends.
The Walter A. Smiths and their
daughter spread their luncheon
table on an inviting rise of
ground near the road; they had as
guests Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred Pull
UNI. Mrs. Smith is the we'll known
office secretary of the Minneapolis
Urban League.
st. Paul did not fail to send its
quota to welcome the convention
visitors. Among others we noted
Mrs. Birdie HE, office attendant
of the st. Paul Urban League, Mr..
and Mrs. Chester Elkins, Mrs.
Clarita Jackson, Oliver Lewis, Mrs.
Margaret Godette, Deloris Vasser
and baby Joyce.
A line of people that seemed I'M
ending marched with plates in hand
through the grounds hard by the
impromptu kitchen erected for their
convenience, and were served cafe
style by veritable host of walters.
Many complimentary remarks were
heard from the visitors extolling
the plentitude and the quality of
the food given them without
money and without price.
The occasion was made further
enjoyable by a program of band
music and vocal selections by
members of the Herrod Jubilee
chorus, by interesting speakers
who sought to clarity the ambitious
scope of the far flung and vital
undertakings of the Associated
Iowa clubs.
Several hundred public and pri-
vate motor cars were used to con-
vey to the park the host of people
who gathered in what is said to be
the largest and most successful
picnic ever given in this city.
