The Inferior

(Ry William Henry Huff for AMP
The one who's been unused to things
Is he who gets excited
When freak Of fortune quickly
brings
A loaf to him benighted.
He hoists his head and ups his nose
To show he is superior;
This makes his friends his lasting
foes
Such person is inferior.
The things he gets are "best of all, !"
To listen to his raving;
All other people, too are small
This red rag he is waving,
But all this tells the wise old world
A new jackass is braying,
With all the quips that ne has hurl'd
He's decayed Or decaying.

Lpuis's Managers
Not long since, rumors began to
| spread that Joe Louis was coming
ttnder the management and control
Of white men. One OF the points of
pride about Louis, insofar a. the
| lSegro pu-lic Is concerned, is that
Negro brain picked him up from an
automobile factory anu liloted h..n
to the World Championship and 4
million dollar bank account. W. all
know that so soon as Negro gets
q few dollars, whites swarm aro n |
him and all but smother him with
| attention. Lit looked like that would
happen to Louis, but now an enter
prising Chicago Negro newsman
has spiked the rumor that Louis
colored managers are being sup
planted by whites. Roxborough and
i Back have produced their contracts
with Louis, and it is stated for a fact
that the only white connection Louis
has is that his colored managers
agree he will fight only under the
promotion Of Mike Jacobs of New
York. For those who want the de-
tails, ii is revealed that of Louis's
purses. 5Oef of the gross goes to
Louis, 2oes t. each Roybo ouch and
Black. and 10Ge to ia k Blackburn,
Louis's trainer.
The Doctors
We are pleased to note that Dir.
Roscoe Giles Of Chicago, former
president of the National Medical
Association, has promptly denied
that the association has joined the
American Medical Association in
opposition TO the health program of
the New Deal. For many years the
American Medical Association, COM
posed Of white doctors, has refused
10 recognize Negro physicians or
their organization, until now that
the white doctors are in opposition
to President Roosevelt's public
health ideas, they seem willing to
accept aid from any and all sources.
While we appreciate the necessity of
sthe Negro physicians seeking just
and deserved recognition from the
leading medical organization Of the
country, we hope they will not be q
party to any program that will place
them on record against an admins
tration at Washington that has
meant so much to the Improvement
of the health Of their race, and
health facilities for their race.

Wdrdens Make Thorough
Fishing License Check.

Minnesota game wardens, in their
regular line of duty, are making a
thorough checkup of fishing licenses
according to Director Harry E. Speakes,
of the division of game and fish.
AS result of this checkup, numerous
fishermen have been hailed into court
for failure to have a license. This
proves an expensive procedure, and
some of those brought to court pay
enough in fines and costs to furnish
them with the SOC annual license for
the rest of their lives.
Minnesota law provides that every
one over Is years old-men and women
have a license to fish, and
must have the license with them. The
law further provides that everyone
must purchase the license in the county
of his residence.

MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL

Before we know it We will be hearing
the school bell ring and the young Of
the land will trot back to their educa-
tional pursuits, leaving Mother and
Dad to quiet winter. 1t is always best
to be prepared, and so today let us list
the necessities in the wardrobe of a
college girl. Of course the location Of
the college or university has little to
do with the wardrobe. For example,
if your daughter is going South to
school she won't need a fur coat, neither
will she need snow suit. But gener-
ally speaking, the college wardrobe is
in most fundamentals the same the
world over You will find it listed be-
low:
l. One three piece tweed suit. This
for week ends, football games and day
time dates off the campus. The full
length coat of this suit may be worn
with dresses as well as the skirt and
jacket of the ensemble
2. Half a dozen sweaters and skirts
for class wear and campus trotting.
College girls literally live in sweaters
and skirts. They are the smart per-
ennial favoriteS of every campus
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1938-07-21
. Two simple wool dresses.

3. Two simple wool dresses.
4. One simple silk Sunday type
frock for teas, etc. This frock could
be of velvet or velveteen if you wish.
5. One dress coat. A smart idea this
year is to buy simple black or brown
hubby wool coat with removable fur
jacket top. The coat may be worn
without the fur jacket or with, depend
ing on the weather. The fur jacket
worn alone is ideal for dressy afternoon
occasions or as an evening wrap.
6. Two evening gowns made with re-
movable jackets. Worn with the JAG
ketS the dresses are dinner frockS, and
worn without the jackets the dresses
are formals. If you haven't fur coat,
or coat such as the one described above,
then you will need a velvet evening
wrap.
7. A heavy wool swagger coat for
school.
8. A raincoat with hood Rubbers
9. A hat for your tweed suit (crush-
able felt type). One hat to wear with
wool and Sunday type frocks. One
snap brim felt for school.
10. Two pairs of school shoes. One
pair of afternoon pumps and one pair
of evening sandals.
Be sure to select your clothes within
the limits of two or three faVorite
colors if you would wear the same &C
cessorieS with several costumes. You
will need a ski suit if you are going to
a college where there are winter sports.
Next week I will list the personal, or
undie wardrobe requirements.

Unearth Petrified
Head of An Indian.

. Aitkin-While breaking new ground
on their farm in Davidson township Ed
and Fred Berg unearthed the petrified
head OF an Indian with a flint arrow
head buried in the right temple, the
end of the head of the arrow being ex-
posed. When dug up the head was not
very hard and weighed only six pounds,
but exposure to the air was increased
in weight to l3 pounds and it is now
very hard. The boys will dig for the
remainder of the body, the pillow having
sheared off the head at the neck. A
tuft of hair still clings to the skull.

Marriages in Scotland

Until a few years ago Scotland
was liberal regarding marriage.
There were no bans or licenses, nor
was parental consent necessary for
minors. Marriage could be consti-
tuted by consent. To avoid the Eng
ish statutes it was common prac-
tice to 60 to Scotland.
