This column is dedicated to the
Eminent physician and scholar, DIR. w.
d. Broun. Well, folks first let me pay
tribute to a yoGng man who made
good in his own home town. Usually
one goes away and makes good, and
then they come back for the home
folks to rave about. But Broun, you
were born and reared here, graduated
from the 4th largest university in the
country, our own U. of M, and took
your inferno at Freedman. Remember
that year, Broun? The worst flood
the South ever had and my sister and
her husband were marooned by the
flood waters in good Nashville, Tenn.
Well, Broun, times pass fast, so let's
look back few years. When you
came back home and you and Francis
had been married for two years secret
ly and nobody knew, and when it was
announced a certain university student
tainted Remember? And they all
said that you were too young to prac-
tice medicine and you turned out to be
one of the ablest doctors that Mime
sofa ever had. Do you remember back
when you first started to practice and
we would go to show and stay three
or four hours and come back and your
office would be full of people and they
thought you had been to the hospital or
ON a call, and that guilty feeling we
had when we discussed it the next day.
Well Broun, we miss those days. But
glad to see you build up large prac-
tice that keeps you on the go all the
time. But we miss your leadership.
Remember, Broun, you were the
youngest exalted ruler the Eks ever
had and the membership drive you put
on to put Ames 100 at new high and
serving as many terms as you wanted
t6, and when you quit they still wanted
you and you were the first exalted rul-
er that .Ames ever had that made the
old timers handle the funds correctly.
Well, let's you and both now take
our hats off, to Geo.. Hall, who is doing
a wonderful job at head. You, know
: why he is popular, Broun. He, like
.yeu, wants to do what is right. . ).
" Remember when Oscar DePriest,
first Negro Congressman from the
: richest district in the world, Chicago
Loop district, was here and they. held
a luncheon for him at the Citizens
Aid Building and you were called up
on to speak following Judge Waite.
And YOU had. no advance notice of it.
never forgot that, andN you won't
'.-either. And that evening when we
gave dinner for him at the Foshay
Tower and you and your wife sat next
. to DePreist Remember the bawling
out that got from Gertrude Brown
that evening at the dinner for keeping
DePreist away all afternoon at his
own request? Well, Broun, the race
as whole misses your militant type
'of leadership, so put yourself back in
circulation. You gave the colored
people the best leadership that they
have enjoyed for long time, Now
that you have two lovely children
come on back and give them and the
people the kind of leadership that but
few are able to.
.:aWeii,t Broun, am leaving here
August 18th to make my home in the
East and in leaving l feel that as at
individual you are the best bet the
colored race has. Broun, don't lei

on musical bookings. They have
not been profitable this season,
and they exact larger sharing
terms than the straight dra'
matte productions.
For next season, only three or
four musicals are definitely
scheduled. A handful of others
