The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1941-03-15

certainly tried to fulfill his promises to
take care of the ward =. he has really
been on the job, stopping the contrac-
tors from dumping snow in our district
-. getting street lights on fremont be-
tween Northampton and Camden and
seeking to light up the entire length
paving fremont Street stopping
the Welfare Coal Companies from
sending out inferior coal, and latest
orders, traffic signals at the junction
of Hammond and fremont Streets, and
the resurfacing of Lenox st. from
Washington to fremont he assisted
the citizens who suggested the naming
of the Lenox st. Housing Courts g.
not campaigning for Daniel Sullivan,
but giving the devil his due. q. . Council
lor Sullivan has done a wonderful lob
thus far toward the entire ward and
when he is allowed two constables I'm
quite sure one will be colored
Charles l. Taylor, City Councillor of
Ward twelve, also has done and is doing
a swell job in his district . his feats
have been many, particularly the job
issue for colored citizens he has a
colored Constable from his ward
his reelection is always assured as far
as the colored votes go . both Coun-
cillors Sullivan and Taylor have attend
ed our social events they have been
invited to and have taken part in the
program =. it really is going to be a
touch job to unseat these councillors
who have shown that they want the
job by taking care of it e.. we haven't
heard just what Representative Billy
Nyham has done for the folks in ward
nine, but maybe he hasn't got his stride
as yet being new in the state seat .
however, we would like to hear from
Rep. Nyham in behalf of his colored
constituency.
SOCIAL STUFF-Mildred Daven-
port, lovely hostess, just about had the
swankiest party of the week with the
cast of Cabin In The Sky, starring
Ethel Waters, as her guests the
affair followed the premiere which
went over the top at the hands of Bos-
tons critics . the Hubs foremost
theatrical people were also invited to
assist in entertaining these outstanding
artists and congratulating them =.
Mildred, dressed as beautiful as a queen
has always been a favorite among pro
fessional folks who are always honored
to be her guests -. the charming Mrs.
cambridge, mother of Mildred, who has
been on the sick list although chair
ridden, did all she could to make the
Cabin In the Sky crew enjoy their hos
pitaIity.
