THE KID EARNED 1T

sv THE LITTLE ENGINEER

WERE going to have the SWELL
w est motoring season in history.
New roads. Old ones fixed up. New
places to go. New things to see.
And new cars!
Those new automobiles are the
best yet-the smoothest running
the best looking, the most COM
Portable, the easiest to drive, the
safest.> BUT-you'Ve got to take
better care of the new automobile
than you did of the family car OF
a couple or five years.
The new cars are the last word
in engineering design and perform
ance but to create these qualities
the engineers have given them
higher engine speeds, higher COM
pressions, closer clearances, new
type gears and bearings and great
err horsepower. These things mean
greater friction and greater heat
and they have brought new lubri-
cation problems which spell GRIEF
and expense If you don't handle
them properly. They can be
summed up in three words-gaso-
line, oil, grease.
In the new engines oil should
reach the fast moving parts along
with the fuel. Some of the great
oil companies have acted on this
necessity and have given us lubrl-
Gated gasoline which contains light
oil and gum solvent to lubricate
and clean pistons and upper cylin'
ders the instant the engine Is
started. These new fabricated fuels
also give old cars better perform
ance than the old fashioned gaso-
lines.
There is no economy in using
cheap oil in your new car. In
whole season it may save you the
price of a few movie tickets and
cost you many dollars in wear and
repairs. Buy only the best adver.
tised motor oils, preferably those
made from Pennsylvania crude.
Your motor will thank you and re-
ward you.
Grease is important especially in
the new cars having hypoid gears
which create extreme pressures.
There are new special lubricants
for these. They should be used ex-
clusively in hypoid gears and never
mixed with other lubricants. Insist
on this to avoid costly breakdowns.
Happy summer to you!

THE NEGRO, THE STAGE

THE NEGRO, THE STAGE
Editor:
No other race or nationality
has given so much dramatic tech
nique and dignity to the stage as
have Negroes. Aldrich, Gilpin,
William, and Walker, were all
great actors in their day. But
their day and kind of acting is no
more. The twentieth century actor
or actress must put into practice
different technique and philoso-
ply. For the most part the actor
of yesterday who were Negroes
played in comical scenes or plays
that had a racial characteristic to
them.
But since this time there has
been complete revolution in the
stage. Paul Robson, who is now
on his way to Russia, expressed his
intention to appear in StevedOre.
Langston Hughes, MulattO, enjoyed
a successful run in New York.
Tobacco Road, play depicting the
horrible conditions of the poor
Southern Whites, is a play of the
twentieth century.
In our city, the assembly players
of the Minneapolis theater union
presented such plays as They Shall
Not Die, Until the Day l Die, Bury
the Dead, The Peoples Enemy and
He.
Archie James, Clarence Hughes,
and Herbert Howell, were members
of the theatre union; had important
parts in these plays. They didn't
appear as servants as many
Negroes do in the old type of plays.
Stevedore, and the other plays
here mentioned fall into the gen.
eral classification of propaganda
plays. They depict class struggle
rather than racial inferiority or
race conflict. Propaganda plays
express the idea that black and
white people must join hands to
better their economic conditions.
If young Negroes are planning a
stage career, and the writer knows
no better way to get ahead, he
should give serious attention to
these Twentieth Century plays.
The old gardener feels that this is
where the success of the young
actor lies.
Herbert Howell.

tune to attend service at st. Ed
mund's Episcopal Church. To wit
ness a high church ritual in a beau
tiful environment of sacred music
and impressive ceremonies. To hear
such a sermon of practical demon
stration of religious concern for
human betterment as to assure that
in this instance at least there is
no room for pessimistic foreboding.
This is written Sunday night,
two days before the big battle. At
this writing there is as much I'M
certainty here as there is else
where. There is, however, no I'M
certainty of the loyalty of Joe
Louis people. Everyone is pulling
for him to win. If he gets a square
deal and loses there will be wide
spread disappointment, but no
trouble.

CHILDREN IN
COURT

With an ever increasing number
of children being brought into
court, juvenile authorities in many
districts are becoming alarmed over
what the future holds for such
youngsters.
One of the principal reasons for
a fifteen billion dollar a year crime
bill is that many parents do not
realize that they themselves are
developing disobedience and dis
honesty in their children. One of
the most common methods whereby
parents lay the foundation for a
dishonest youth is by lying to
others in his presence. Parents
should always remember that a son
or daughter will not remain honest
if they themselves are untruthful.

Institutions visited - General
Parkview Veterans and Franklin
Hospitals.
Home visits-Four.
From the Nurses Notebook
We found two of our men in
wheelchairs on the lawn at Park
view last Monday. Mr.. Andrew
Horton, who had not been feeling
so we'll the past week, had wheeled
his chair in a shady spot, lighted
his pipe and prepared to listen in
on the ball game. The patients on
the lawn are able to hear the radio
programs while summing them
selves, thanks to a thoughtful
neighbor. This neighbor moves his
radio to his front porch which is
across from Parkview lawn and
tunes in for the benefit of the pa
tients. Since the rooms are not all
equipped with radios out there,
the kindness of the neighbor is
truly appreciated.
Mr.. John McMoore showed US
how skillful he has become in
manipulating his wheel chair. We
were glad to note that he seemed
stronger since our first visit. We
had visited his home that morning
and found his wife planning to
take him some green peas cooked
with salt pork. This is his favor
tie dish. The other men want some
greens" Institutional diets may
be ever so beneficial but after
months and months of eating
proper vitamins, it turns out to be
very uninteresting business. We
know the greens will be taken to
the men.
Mr.. Phillip Humphrey is able to
walk about so we'll that he heads
the list of our convalescents. Mrs.
Tavia Beasley, Sally Bailey, and
Fannie Banks remain on the seri-
ously i'll list.

Due to his serious condition a male
nurse was on special duty with
him. Mr.. David Rodgers condi-
ton has not improved. Mr.. Homer
McCravens has improved since his
three weeks stay in the hospital.
He has been encouraged to join the
Art class there. His "hobby" of
drawing should be developed as it
shows possibilities.
We took some flowers to Mrs.
Mary Smith at Franklin Hospital,
for a friend. Mrs. Smith is en-
