charming ladies in conservative
attire, semi and formal dress with
their genial escorts, swaying amid
soft blue lights beneath a canopy
of conventional black and white
(the R.H.H. colors) filled this eve
ming with fun almost Incompatible.
The tantalizing Marjorie Brown

Dust" Vera Marie Keys sweet
heart of song did a request num-
Der Don't Worry About Me-" Why
yes, to be sure, the jitterbugs had
full share in this gay evening
and as Chester "Chet" Carter puts
it they really laid it, they did"
Minutes too soon became hours,
tiny wee ones. Paul Seleski, presi-
dent, thanked all, and bade all
good night. Being loath to leave
was mutual with entertainers,
hosts and guests. Coy and his aces
really go to town. AS Manifesto
ton, by populad demand they have
return date for February Goth.

Our Standing!

WASHINGTON = The Census
of 1910 is going to have special i'm
portance for the Negro citizens of
the United States. AS have all
previous censuses, it shows how
many Negroes live in this country,
and how large a part of the total
population they form. But beyond
that, it will measure their econo-
mic condition and their social
needs more completely than ever
before.
