Nj Cormick- Deering lmplemen

MCCORMICK Deerlng implements
The man who clings to old
fashioned and obsolete methods
of operating a farm or any
kind of business in this modern
day, can be counted as a fail
ure. The farm like all other in
dustries, is replacing horsepoW-
err in the flesh, with horSepoW-
err of steel and the farmer who
realizes this, is the one that is
progressing. Mr.. E. l.. Jacobson
has the local agency for the
Mccormick eering Farm I'M
Elements, which are known
from coast to coast as being
superior in quality. Mr.. JAG
OLSON has gained an enviable
reputation in this community
and is known to be a respon-
sible man to deal with. His re-
liability combined with the eX-
cellent line of Farm Implements
he sells, is a combination that
guarantees satisfaction and as
Sures his customers full value
for their. money. How long has
MI jacobson been in this bus
mess here? What hours is his

DIR. I. L. JAYNES. Chiropructor

There is probably no profess
sion that has forged to the
front more than that of the
chlropractor. The science of
combating the diseases of the
human body, by adjustment of
the spine and other drugless
methods, is indeed a wonder
full work. Children, as well as
adults, respond quickly to CHR
opractic treatments and the
results obtained by correcting
spinal defects, Ultra short wave
heat therapy, Mineral Steam
Baths, Ultra Violet Ray, Cor
receive diet and other modern
methods, are most gratifying in
all diseases. DR.. l.. L. JayneS,
who's office is located in the
Big Horn County Bank building,
has been practicing for years.
The wonderful work done by
him and the results he has ac-
complished, stand out as splen-
did examples of what Chiro-
practic means to humanity to-
day. DR.. Jaynes is a substan-
tlal citizen of Hardin and en-

People of this community are
fortunate that they can go to
the jewelry store of MIR. Bylund,
for their needs in this line.
They have learned that he will
not offer them any article that
will not stand the test of time
and wear. The average person
knows so little of the real value
of a piece of jeWelry or silver
ware, that it means everything
when you make a purchase in
this line to 60 to a man whose
word is recognized and who can
be trusted. Mr.. Bylund's Jewel
ry Store is modern in every de-
tail and he offers his customers
all the newest novelties in the
little things that women love
for personal adornment and
style. He has the respect of his
business associates, due to his
efficiency and admirable bus
mess methods. MI. Bylund is
ably assisted in his business by
Mrs. Bylund. They are loyal
citizens of Hardin and boost
ers for it. How long has MI.
Bylund been in this business
here? What ladies wrist watch

Brer Rabbit
AT Federal

Another big dramatic production
by the Negro Repertory Co. of the
Federal Theatre which has been
in rehearsal for the past two
months, will have its first presen-
tation at the popular theatre on
Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. 1t
is titled "Brer Rabbit and the Tar
Baby" and it is filled with music
and dances and sprightly dialogue.
The play, which was written by
Ruth Mitchell and Alfred Allen,
famous New York playwrights,
contains the whimsical nonsense of
Uncle Remus but in a modern
sWingtime manner with music.
There is Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox,
Brer Terrapin, Old Mrs. Crow,
Brer Possum, Molly Cottontail and
the Rabbit "chillun" and they will
all greet the audiences with orig
inal songs and dances from the
happy childhood land of the sunny
South.
1t is quite interesting to note
that the music for this production
was written by Howard Biggs of
the local Federal Theatre, who will
also direct the orchestra for the
offering. Among the well known
Negro performers who will appear
III the show are Perry Gillian, Jo-
seph Station, Harper CASTOR, Tom
my Trice, Al Blackwell, George
Height, Sirless Grove, Sarah Oil
yer, Doris Booker, Jane Chandler,
Evelyn Winston, Alice Powell,
Charlene Munroe, and Frank Col
Inns.
Reports from the Federal The
atre would indicate that the offer
ings of the Negro unit of the en-
terprise is the most successful from
an attendance standpoint, crowds
usually flocking to each offering
by the Negro players.
The lavish costuming and special
scenery built for "Brer Rabbit"
will go far to making it the most
pretentious of Federal plays.

Public Utilities
Hire No Negroes

NEW YORK (CNA)--An open
admission that New York public
utilities pursue a definite policy
of barring Negro workers from
employment in categories other
than porters and scrub-women
was made here this week by Of
fetal sof the powerful New York
Telephone Company to a delega-
ton of prominent Harlem citizens
The delegation, representing the
Greater New York Co-ordinating
Committee for employment, was
composed of DR.. Adam Clayton
Powell, Jr., Mrs. Elizabeth Ross
Haynes, Mark Rowe, Charles Gel
lier, Urban League, William Col
den, Arnold Johnson, Audley
Moore, Miriam Forester and Rita
Francis. The conference took
place in the company's office at
1875 Broadway, with v. F. Cooley
and R. H. Boggs, representing the
company.
DR.. Powell, acting as spokesman
for the delegation, stated that the
Co-ordinating Committee was seek
ing to have the ban against en-
ployment of Negroes removed.
The company's spokesman adj
mitted the existence of the ban
and offered the pretex that white
and Negro workers could not work
together tremendously. When the
delegation pointed out that the
two groups get along harmonious
ly in scores of industries and in
Civil Service, Cooleye replied that
the Telephone Company "has not
been built up with that back
ground" He asserted that "cus-
tom has quite lot to do with or
ganization," inferring that since
the company has kept Negro and
white workers apart in the past it
must continue to do so or it's white
employees would take offense.
Asked if he would put the ques-
ton to the white employees of the
company, Cooley did not reply.
Col. William Stilwell, who repre-
sented the Consolidated Gas and
Electric Company at the confer
ence, asserted that officers of his
company had discussed" the hir-
ing of Negroes, but alibied that
they can find no solution to the
problem now without firing some
of their present employees. He
made the amazing revelation"
that his company employed "some
Negroes few years ago, but that
Negro customers objected to it."
For this reason, he said, the COM
pany discontinued the practice.
DR.. Powell sharply challenged
the truth of Stilwell's assertion.

Negro Death
Rate Favorable

WASHINGTON (C) - There
were Psi, 098 Negro births report
ed in the United States in the
year 1896 as compared with 1922
74S deaths, an excess of $3.50
births over deaths, according to
William L. Austin, director of the
Census. In '35 the number of
births exceeded the number of
deaths by 1901. The decrease in
the excess of births over deaths
was mainly due to an increase of
1925 in the number of deaths.
At the same time there was a de-
crease of 4,OA6 in the number of
births. In the South the excess of
births over deaths in '36 was 61.-
455. Outside the South there were
3,105 more deaths than births.
