BENNINGTON HOTEL
DEMOCRACY

Editor: I have been of the opin-
ion that the bennington hotel, of
this city, was a first class hotel but
since they changed managers they
will not allow Negroes to ride on
the passenger elevator. Instead
they must go first to the basement
and then go up on the freight ele-
vator, many times crowded with
rubbish and workmen whose
clothes are covered with paint or
soiled otherwise.
I called on a permanent guest at
the bennington hotel a few weeks
ago, one whom I have visited there
for many years. When I approached
the passenger elevator on which
have always ridden, the operator
informed me that 81 cannot take
you up, you must go to the base
ment and ride the freight eleva-
tor" I ask you-is that true de-
mocracy?

odor, glared at the professor" as
they showed him aside in their
haste to enter the approaching
train. The professor" looked
around mildly, and noting that the
train was also his, followed them
into the car. Inasmuch as the car
was crowded he found it necessary
to seat himself next to the uncOuth
persons who had jostled him so
rudely. A sharp jab of the elbow
shook the professor" out of his
reverie to a closer scrutiny of his
swarthy neighbOr. Being a person
to note details, his regard was
more than casual. The smallest de-
tails came in for a close examina-
ton.
AS the professors" eyes trav-
eled upward on the person of the
uncouth individual he noticed a
moving object, and on closer in
spection proved to be an acanthias
lectularius. The professor" gent
ly tapped his unknown companion
on the shoulder, saying, 81 beg
your pardon, but there seems to be
an acanthias lectularius on your
collar" with which he took his
fingers and removed the insect.
The son of Ham fiinched. "What
is it," he snapped.
The professor" smiled, as
though at some triumphant nowl-
edge within himself. Aloud he said,
''It's just a bedbug, Mister, that's
ALL"
The Hamite's tone switched
abruptly. His words spattered
like bullets.
'Put it back. Put it right back
where you got it. say put it back.
That's the trouble with you white
folks now every time you see a
poor colored man with something
you want to take it away from him.

the swinging doors leading to the
81" platform at Madison and Wells
in downtown Chicago. He was one
of those smallish, slightly on the
professor type, individuals. He
would catch your attention and
hold it anywhere. Dressed in a
dusty dark suit, a portfolio tucked
loosely under his left arm, pince-nez
glasses dangling from a wide black
ribbon around his neck, he seemed
to be as much out of place in the
motley 81" crowd as a zoOt suit
would be at full dress party.
But crowds are crowds on any
81" platform in Chicago and this
one was no exception. Sedate-look-
ing ladies with summer furs and
foozies with openwork toes; Fill
Pine lads bareheaded and hep
cats with wide brim hats; bust
ness men reading newspapers and
morons reading legs and hips;
scrub women with dirt under their
finger nails and punks with dirt on
their minds; a sugar daddy with a
crying baby and a seventeen year
old mother with hers. All waiting
for a particular train which would
carry them to "heaven" or "hell."
My thoughts were still on the
professor" Several trains had
passed, yet he had departed on
none of them. He glanced at the
little girl and her baby. Reaching
into an outer coat pocket he
brought forth a sugar-cOated piece

IN MEMORIAM

In memory of our dear wife and
daughter, Dovie Ward, who de-
parted this life one year ago Aug.
"a, 1871.
She loved all nature, flowers fair,
The warmth of sun, the kiss Of
air,
The birds that filed the sky with
song,
The stream that laughed its
way along.
Her home to her was shrine and
throne,
But one love held her not alone;
She sought our poverty and grief,
Who touched her robe and found
relief.
Mr.. James Ward, husband.
Mrs. Bertha Turner, Mother.

The Detroit Tigers. now only
half a game from the coveted
fourth place in the American
League race, will tackle the
Cleveland Indians in the final
two games at Cleveland Satur-
day and Sunday with a veteran

The idle Tigers saw the mar
gin cut to half a game yester-
day when the Chicago White
Sox beat the Indians twice. The
two clubs play again today be-
fore the Tigers move in tomor-
row.
In their season series the Tig-
ers hold l3 to 7 edge over
Cleveland. Last year the teams

thorities who conducted an off
season survey.
The State Conservation Com
mission has made an important
change governing the use of per-
manent duck blinds. The change
was ordered in an effort to
eliminate complaints of many
duck hunters arising through
monopolization of good shooting
stands over waters where perm
anent blinds are permissible.
The commission has ruled
that there must be spacing OF
at least 600 feet between perma-
nent blinds. Requests were made
to have the space reduced TO 400
feet, but the commission felt
that 500 feet would provide
more safety from stray shot, and
a the same time do away with
the domination Of the best
shooting space by any single
stand.
RETAIN 1941 CODE
Regulations covering the use
of temporary blinds remain the
same as last year. They are law
full within 100 feet of the shore
or any well defined brush,
grass, weed or reed bed.

blinds may be erected are as
