BOOST BOSTON

1t is a grave error to extol race
progress in other cities and disparage
or ignore our own achievements in the
Hub We local residents must Boost
Boston and New England. 1t seems
that we have not INDUCED in the high
pressure advertising in which the
South and West delight, but that does
not mean we are not active and pro-
gressive. New York with its colored
population of 100000 points with par
donable pride to it's record of service
and progress, it's notable advancement
in the arena of practical affairs. From
down below the cline" there frequently
come glowing accounts of race bust
ness and enterprise. All of the shout
ing is welcome and encouraging. Let
Boston also bravely foot its horn.
The Colored residents here number
a scant $4,000. But in proportion to
our number Colored people have more
money invested in business here than
anywhere else in the United States.
There's a starter in self-publicity.
Keep it going.
And the remarkable thing is that
the colored merchant is in sharp COM
petition with the shrewdest trades
men that ever were born-the white
Yankees. The colored man in bust
ness has to be "better than good" to
succeed and he asks no special favors.

ton, of the U. S. Consular Service, just
returned on vacation to the United
States from the Canary Islands, and
Mrs. Wharton would have been given
the prize for the most lovable husband
and wife present. Certainly a prize
should go to the hostess, Miss Thorn
ton, who was everywhere and as nice
as ever.
Others entitled to prizes We're the

the fortune teller, Mr.. Overstreet, the
official ice cream faster, Mr.. Krigger,

guides and to all the models in the nice
fashion show enjoyed by all.
To be sure, nearly all of the sweet
persons of the feminine sex were in
attendance, both the visiting groups
at school and on vacation as we'll as
our own Boston beauties, such as Mrs.
Solomon, formerly Miss Olivia Stead
of Cambridge.
So many were there that an estimate
of three hundred persons may be short
of the actual number in attendance.
Incidentally, the fifty dollar prize was
won by young colored man who lives
on Shawmut Ave-, Boston. AS usual
the winner was not on hand to receive
his prize. Neither was Miss Lucille

ceive the prize of one hundred dollars
awarded to the most deserving student

then, the Women's Association has
reached out all over the nation and
increased its membership into the
thousands. Now it returns to Boston,
it's birthplace. 1t has never forsaken
the fight. We, as spiritual heirs of the
past, must carry on the fight. We
should visit the Maria L. Baldwin

where rest the book and the chair,
relics of Mrs. j. St. Pierre Rufin. We
should hail Mrs. Ruffin, Mrs. Jeffrey,
Mrs. Sparrow, Mrs. Boxer T. Washing

We must strive to equal and surpass
their achievements
