At first it had been annoying to find
that Laura was so much in his mind
He had missed her while away at
school Some settlement would have
to be made if he were to have any
peace. And because he was a man.
"and society therefore demanded that
he take the initiative. he decided to
do the breaking down." Yet before
doing so he made up his mind to
one thing: Whatever the outcome he,
as the male, must dominate. Laura
must realize that they we're no longer
children. She must submit. That and
only that would assure them a sue
eessful and happy married life.
Paul cast about in his mind for
an issue by which he could demon
strate his superiority. At last he de-
cided upon one. He would insist that
they live the first few years of their
lives in city apartment. Laura would
object. because it was natural for her
to object to all his suggestions.
So Paul proposed in quite gentle
manly and sincere fashion And Laura
accepted, and for a while they had
hiissful moments together. Then Paul
said:
Well live the first couple of years
IN town, so I can be near my work" :"
We'll do no such thlng!" Laura
said, lifting her head from his shoul-
der. Well live in the country, where
! can have a garden and a lawn.
You can commute
Paul had the advantage of being
prepared Darling" he said gently,
please let's not argue. After all, l
am the male. and unless the male as
serts himself by at least one victory
before marriage, there's bound to be
unhappiness afterward"
of all the silly theories ever in
vented by man! Now, let me tell you
something. Paul Osbourne---"
And so began another another quar-
rel Paul departed in a rage, and
Laura stood in the doorway end shout
I'd insults at him until he was out
cf sight.
When the heat of battle had passed,
Paul. lying awake in bed, was con-
scious of a growing sense of misery,
yet OF an equal growing sense of de-
termination. 1t was he decided. alb
surd to think of going on unless one or
the other of them scored a definite
victory. And since it was his belief
that the male should be boss
week passed. Paul rigidlv ad-
hered to his decision not to make the
first gesture of peace. He was miser-
able. He hoped Laura was miserable.

mother answered. Her mothers voice
was frantic.
She went out this afternoon with
that awful Jacob Monroe. She prom
ised to be home at S. They were
going to the White Swan"
Paul glanced at his watch. 1t was
$50. A sort of panic seized him,
couped with rage and disgust. He
grabbed his hat and ran out to the
garage.
The White Swan was beginning to
fill with its usual nightly crowd of
f1amboyants when Paul arrived.
Adopting an attitude. he asked
bartender if Jacob Monroe had been
in. The bartender darted quick
look toward the rear of the room,
then glanced sharply at Paul.
Paul started for the door at the
rear. A pock-faced individual fol-
lowed him. At the door, the pock-
faced man placed hand on his arm.
Paul turned, decided that speech
would be silly, and picked up a chair.
The crash of it and the thud Of the
pock- faces falling body attracted at
tention. Other men began moving
toward Paul.
Paul put his shoulder to the door.
He threw himself forward twice. Then
the lock snapped and he was inside.
A girl screamed, and he recognized
Laura's voice Then he saw her, fat
tened against an opposite wall with
Jacob Monroe standing in front of
her.
Paul's fist caught Jacob under the
chin and lifted his heels off the floor.
Laura shrieked and fled into his arms.
He grabbed her wrist, dragged her
toward a window. The window opened
onto fire escape. He lifted her
through it
Five miles from the White Swan,
Paul stopped his coupe.

We will not! Well live in the
country where you'll be satisfied I'm
not going to take any chances of you
doing this again.
And I'm not taking any chances
of having you act the way you have
been acting for more than month.

Some Makers Of Negro History
THE NEW NEGRO
BY J. Edward Mccall

HE scans the world with calm and fearless eyes,
Conscious within of powers long since forgot
At every STEP man-madc barriers rise
To bar his progress, but he needs them not,
He stands erect though tempests round him crash
Though thunder bursts and pillows surge and rol
lie laughs and FORCES while lightnings flash
Along the rocky pathway to his goal
Impassive as Sphinx he stares ahead,
Foresees new empires rise and old ones fall;
While caste-mad nations lust for blood to shed,
He sees Gods finger writing on the wall,
With soul awakened wise and strong he stands,
Holding his destiny within his hands

with whatever number is given
them.
One of the interesting factors
that has given such wide popular
ity to this annual event is due to
interest exhibited by Negro men
and women in business in the Twin
Cities, who each year offer valu-
able prizes to the contestants
Bathing Beauties) who reach a
certain standard of perfection in
more than a dozen competitive
minor contests.
These business and professional
people also benefit because of the
large publicity campaign conducted
by the Twin City Triangle Club
promoters of this huge picnic,
whist tournament, and big outdoor
event which will probably bring to-
gether the largest crowd that has
yet been witnessed. 1t is also UNI
derstood that children of the Twin

, It is interesting to note that as
many as six contestants of the
present number of about twenty
bathing beauties aspiring for hon
ors and special prizes in the 1888
Contest and all day picnic to be
held at Harriet Island, Monday,
June 81, were DESTROYS of using No.
13, in the present contest.
The writer was informed that the
reason is due to the fact that dur
ing the past three years the bath
ing beauty wearing No. 13 has al
ways come out victorious, winning
one or more special prizes.
Each bathing beauty is given a
number and as a rule there is a
certain skepticism as relates to
lucky and unlucky numbers-for
example: one Of the attractive con-
testants from st. Paul is under
stood to have insisted on the num-
Der that is her birthdate as this
date has always been most for
tunate to her. Others the numbers
are negative and they are satisfied

Growing Negro Solidarity
Seen By Saturday Evening
Post Article Author

The increasing solidarity of the
Negro race, and the chance for it
to make its mark politically, eco
nomically, and socially, are dis
cussed at length today in a lead
article by DR.. Stanley High in The
Saturday Evening Post. A second
article on the same subject by DIR.
High, one of the founders in Wash
ington of the Good Mel g h b o r
League, and we'll known national
correspondent, is scheduled for a
forthcoming issue.
'Place in Sun"
DR.. High, who spent some time
gathering his material in impor-
tant Negro centers throughout the
country, sums up the findings of
his first article to this effect: the
time has come for the Negro to
take his place in the sun, and the
Negro knows it.
He traces the Northward move
ment of the Negro race to such
centers as New York, Pittsburgh,
Baltimore, Chicago, St. Louis, and
explains why the depression hit the
Negro harder than any other
group. 1t was the depression, he
says, more than any other agent,
that brought the Negroes together.
Negroes Will Go Together
"Joe Louis" DIR. High writes, "is
name to conjure with on any
level of Negro society. But it is
a sign of the times that the crowds
at a Joe Louis personal appearance
are certainly no more representa-
tive and likely to be no bigger than
those that turn out for a visit of
the Scottsboro boys. The forces
which are uniting the present-day
Negro community of the North are
far more potent and portentous
than mere race pride in the
achievements in the white mans
world of such personalities as
Maxine Sullivan, Bill Robinson,
and Duke Ellington. Negro sol
idarity has been long coming and
it has not yet fully arrived. But
it is already near enough to be
visible. It is not possible to
say where the Negroes of the
North are going. But there is
much evidence that, wherever it is,
they will go there together"
DIR. High gives a detailed back
ground for thoroughly understand
ing the problems and the impor-
lance of the Negro today. His sub
sequent article will go more deep
ly into the political and economic
phases of the question.
The article is illustrated with
several photographs including pic
lures of A, Philip Randolph the
