Hot days are coming, c. G. And
do you know that because of some
kind Of priority rulings that ice can
be delivered but once a day? I
didn't know it until I called on Mrs.
Daisy Perry, 2914 Lake Street. You
know she and her husband ire in
the transfer and ice business. She
told me that but one delivery a day
can be made on ice now, although
people can call at the local ice sta
tons, including their own, and rur-
chase as often, and as much, rs
much as they please.
I also learned from Mrs. Perry
that the Mr.. and Mrs. John G. Adj
ans, of Lincoln, were recent visit
ors of theirs.

One of the pleasant receipts OF
the week, c. C. was a formidable"
letter from Michigan. 1t was a
three page affair with every mem
Der Of the Were All Americans
committee each writing a portion Of
the letter. Gee, it feels swell to
know that friends elsewhere think
Of you.

A detective-sergeant P. H. Jenk-
ins, of Miami Street, 1 believe, hail
ed me one evening, and congratulate
ed me upon my journalistic effo rs
here. Is he a subscriber of 70 1.s,
C. c.?
king Jesus is My Captain" -
is the name Of a rollicking oh raj
number that I heard, Sunday, at tie
Bethel AME. Church, 2428 Franklin
Street, pastored by the Rev. B. i.
Jones.
Or is it sacrilegious to call a
choral number ~''rollickin?g" Any
way I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the services, except fer
one thing. At the close the pastor,
the Rev. Jones, publicly introduced
me to his congregation. I like to
go, watch, hear, and observe things
but I do not like to be noticed.
Perhaps that is the wrong spirit but
it is my nature. If I have any ex-
preston to make 1 like to make it
unaware of those contacted. How
ever, the Reverend was very sociable
and I surely shall attend there often.
I also met Sgt. George Bevins,
while there. You know the Sergeant
is an old war veteran and each
week he writes of his experiences in
our contemporary, the Star.
BY the way. c. c. who is the CHOIR
director at Bethel? and, particular
ly, who is the little pianist?
G. c. do you think I am a mir
acle man? Well, I II have to be
one if 1 hope to stay in the good
graces of Mrs. Bertha Johnson, 1924
Charles Street. Remember, last
week, 1 wrote something about the
dog "Dopey" and credited the in
formation from her. Well, 1 was all
wet. The dog didn't die. 1t was
the master, Sgt. Riley that died.
The dog is still alive. Long Live
Dopey!" How's that Bertha?

I told you something about the Rich
ard Turner's last week. Well, one
Of them. Il think he is of the third
generation.) Anyway he works at
the bomber plant and he asked me
why more colored women didn't Ivy
to get jobs out there. He said that
foreign women get jobs but, appar-
emily the colored women do not try.
Upon inquiry I learned that colorad
women could be used t or maids,
busters, and in the kitchen. All
that is required is that the women
be in good health; have a birth cell
tificate, and an application picture.
They should file their applications
any morning at the employment o.
flee at Meade and Nebraska.
Well, there you are, Richard Tur-
ner. If some Of the colored women
do apply, and are qualified, and
don't get jobs, please let me know,
