they we're blended by the late

certain definite conditions of the
hair. skin and scalp, and today,
after over thirty-fve years on

increasingly popular, and not
withstanding the fact that the
Company has always refused to
reduce the price on these goods.
they are still in demand every
where.
Mime. c. ]. Walkers Glossine,
although more than thirty-five
years on the market, is still the
leader in its field. The reason
for this is because it not only
serves as a scalp oil, but it gives
the hair that silky sheen and
natural gloss that is the delight
of every woman.

CAB GALLOWAY, Tho POORc
:. BOY WHO MADE GOOD.
TO APPEAR IN OMAHA
NEXT WEEK

Cab Galloway and his Hide
Ho orchestra and "Cotton Club
Revue of 1899" which co-stars
the sensational Sister Tharpe,
colored swinger of Spirituals,
take hold of the Paramount thea
tire stage in Omaha for a six day
engagement beginning Friday,
December LIST.
The sensational Calloway's be-
ginning was humble. Born of a
poor family in Rochester in 1908
Cabs family moved to Baltimore
where his father, Cabel Galloway
hung out his single to practice
law.
For a brief period, the Gallo
way fortunes managed to hold
it's own with the butcher and
the baker. Cab Jr. managed to
graduate from High school but
any thoughts he had of follow
ing his fathers footsteps, were
dispelled by a sudden falling of
the family fortunes.
While attending school, Cab
sang in the choir of the local
church. Faced with the dismal
prospects of having to go out
and not only earn his own living
but also for his parents, Cab OBJ
tanned occasional jobs as a singer
in small night clubs.
A letter from h Is sister,
Blanche, brought him post haste
to Chicago where he obtained a
singing spot in a tab show in
which she was appearing When
the show folded, and no singing
jobs were in sight, he signed on
as a drummer with a local five
piece band. Soon after he began
singing with the band.
A driving ambition to lead his
own band soon resulted in an
eight piece combination called
"Cab Galloway and His Nilsson
rians."
The combination achieved a fair
measure of success in Chicago SC
the boys jumped at the chance to
open in New York's famous
Comics Inn Unlike the aver
age success story, the band was
a flop from the start. Irving
Mills, an enterprising New York
theatrical manager, heard Gallo
way and with keen foresight
placed him in front of a 4

The Mound Bayou Murders

The Mound Bayou Murders
A vivid, symbolical oil painting
of contentious Negroes, in the
nude, hung in the American Con-
temporary Arts Building at the
New York Worlds Fair. 1t arous-
ed a strange, morbid fascination
but the truth of it was more
%sickening than all. 1t made one
feel like slashing ii or tearing it
from the wall. 1t was too truel
Briefly, it was a story of self
ishness, greed and murder.
The Staying of Eugene P. Booze
the famed Republican politician
of Mississippi, made me think of
hat picture at the Worlds Fair.
The staying of Booze's sister-in-
law by white peace officers al
legedly summoned by Booze, only
a month prior to Booze's murder
appears to have been an anti-cli-
max to what came later. Booze
said before that political jeal-
ousy" caused his assassination.
Both tragic incidents seem to
have been the shameful outcome
of protracted, fierce hatreds
which finally liqu;dated two of
the chief participants. The rami-
fications and significance of these
Deaths reach deeply into the Ne
gro character.
On the other hand, fifty-two
.-ears of exemplary all-Negro
Government of a Mississippi town
remains a record of which our
race can be proud.
