Aspirit of hearty cooperation

eat is no more necessary than a
militant newspaper. 1t is the need
and mouthpiece of every minority
group. 1t is your source of infor-
nation, because no white daily
considers you of sufficient impor-
lance to clog its columns. 1t is
your only means of influencing
public opinion in matters of right.
1t quickens our sympathies and
understanding of each other. Said
Frederick Douglas, God and one
are a majority" Certainly, then,
God and one good race newspaper
will carry the truth to listening
public. Remember, we are our
brothers keeper.
I have no interest in the North
west Enterprise, save that inter-
est manifested by every race man
and woman in the State of Wash
ington. I have demanded as a
reader and subscriber, just what is
going to be the attitude of the
Enterprise in matters so vitality
affecting our community. This is
the answer, verbatim: "The Enter
prise will seek to inform and en-
terrain it's readers. We will not
simply protest, or merely tell the
unpalatable truth, but will fight
with organized and pitiless public
ity in every way which law abid-
ing citizens do fight to right every
wrong"
If the Enterprise maintains this
policy, then it is the duty of every
race man and woman in the State
of Washington and especially Sc
attic, to aid it by subscribing for
it and to say to it's advertisers, I
am a reader of the Enterprise.
Without its newspaper, every
minority is doomed to suffer
strangulation to a slow and awful
death by growing intolerance.

Eddie Powell, after devoting fiji
teen months of his time learning
the boxing game from Frisco Nc
Gale, and at the same time clean
ing up on all the light heavyweight
and heavyweights who were will
ing to step into the ring with him,
walked into the Druxman Gym,
at time when Bob Nestle, train
ing for his bout with Wild Bill
Boyd, was short of sparing part
ners. Eddie was offered the chance
to box with Nestle and his work
so impressed Nate Druxman, Sc
attic Ace promoter that he was
given a place on the card against
Jack Kilbane of Bellingham. Eddie
knocked Kilbane out in the second
round and Immediately received an
offer from Gus Wilson, Nestle's
manager for bout in Los Angeles.
Frisco turned the offer down for
the time being, realizing that Ed
die is hardly ready.
The Y boxing team, taken by
Frisco McGale to Eagles smoker
last week ran into stormy wealth
er. Charley Barber carrying his
left hand too low and leading with
his chin, got up off the floor from
a nine count in the second round
and put on back peddling BIZ
cycle act that would make Gene
Tunney of fourteen count fame
blush with envy. Charley lost the
decision. The second bout between
Willie Reese and Nathan Mails of
tn Eagles A. c.. was featured by
the dialogue between Willie and
Frisco. Throw in the towel, yells
Willie to Frisco after Mails had
landed a left to the tummy. Take
your medicine, yells Frisco. told
you to keep in condition. Willie
turned and fought for few Sec
onds like a wild cat, but soon ran
out of gas. In the next round, Will
lie leaned over the ropes and yell
ed to Frank Houston, his second,
Frank, do me a favor. Throw in
that towel, or the water bucket or
something, this half-breed Indian
has gone crazy. Frank looked at
Frisco. Frisco glared at Frank and
Willie took a nose dive. He wasn't
hurt but he found out that cigar
cites, late hours and prize fighting
don't mix.
In the next bout, Buddy Meth
cry doing a perfect Susie @, was
looking like a sure winner until,
like a bolt out of the blue, right
from Louie Griff exploded on his
chin and Buddy was looking at
stars listening to brides.

usually have milk pudding of some sort.

feel sure that, if the President came to dinner,
he'd be served to milk pudding. But it's no

As for cake. Wendy prefers hers at tea

caters to her in Hollywood, often serves

hot scones, or tender tea biscuits, or fresh

Finally there are two out of -the-o ordinary
