GENERAL.DAVIS

A brigadier general is commander
of brigade. A brigade is composed
of two or more regiments or similar
units. Brigadier General Benjamin o.
Davis has been placed in command of
brigade of two regiments, the Ninth
Cavalry and the Tenth Cavalry, both
of them famous units of the United
States regular army.
References to the Ninth and Tenth
are usually couched in glowing terms.
They have splendid records in war
and peace-time service. Praise of the
Tenth often includes the claim that the
Tenth rescued Teddy" Roosevelt's
Rough Riders" in Cuba in the Spanish
American War. That exploit may be
may not be recorded in authoritative
military history, but illusions to it are
a popular way of describing colored
cavalrymen's dash and efficiency in
warfare. General Davis is returning
to the regular army outfit in which he
enlisted as a private and rose to COM
missioned rank. He is back among
officers and men who have long known
him and his worth.

HUGE Volunteer
ARMY HELPING
FUND DRIVE

More than dozen captains and a
staff of workers eventually to reach
over 200 started out from the Robert
Gould Shaw House Monday afternoon
literally to "comb" the South End in
putting this Section across in the cur
rent Community Fund Campaign.
The captains and their workers had
met at the Shaw House and had heard
inspirational talks by Fred Kronen,
Area Vice Chairman of the district, Gil
Eaton, head of the Roxbury Boys Club
and one of the executive members of
the Fund drive; Morris R. Taylor,
entering his third drive in this city, and
John E. Wyche, chairman. Two mov-
ing pictures had been shown, and de-
tailed instructions given the workers.
Captains have been appointed for
sections of the South End and Roxbury
as well as for certain specific phases of
Getting those dollars to the 'front.'.
They include G.. Hilton Greene, per
sonally responsible for the fremont St.
business section; Miss Helena Johnson
Mrs. Catherine Manning, Leo Lieber-
man, co-chairman last year and indie
fatiguable Fund worker for many
years, Mrs. Lillian Kicker (who brought
a large group of her workers with her
all ready for work. Ted Simms, who
will work with Mr. Lieberman, Martin
Richardson, chairman of publicity, Mrs
Florence Lesueur and a number of
others.
The important Church drive this
year will be in charge of Mrs. Beulah
Hester who will contact every religious
organization in the city.
At the Shaw House meeting the
workers heard that there are now 212
agencies embraced under the Funds
activities, many of them vitality con
cerned with the large colored popula-
ton of the city. Nearly $4,000, they
learned goes directly to these institu-
tons; colored institutions beneftting
from the fund include: Robert Gould
Shaw House, Boston Urban League,
Cambridge Community Center, Harriet
Tubman House, and Others Family
Welfare agencies, Boston City Hospi-
tai, several settlement houses, religious
relief agencies and societies also receive
a share from the Community Fund.
