The recent cold snap may not
have been appreciated by the
grown-ups, but We young ones sho'
did enjoy it. The ice began to form
about 10 o'clock and needless to
say, classes for the rest of the
day were not given much atten-
ton. We could hardly wait for the
lunch bell to ring so we could get
out into the weather and see just
how cold it was. We soon found
out! If you happened to be walk

felt ice hitting you on your head
and back, you could have been
sure that smiling Anna Kamer
was behind it. Because she had

Youth Health Study
Plans Announced

It was announced today by DR..
Vivian Tappan of Tucson, State
Chairman of the American Acad-
emy of Pediatrics, that a Youth
Health Study in Arizona will begin
within the next two weeks. This
study is part of a nationwide
survey of facilities available for
the care of the youth of the ma
ton. It is sponsored by the Amer
lean Academy of Pediatrics and is
being conducted by the practicing
physicians in each state. This prof.
ect is unusual in that practicing
physicians are for the first time
attempting to carry out an extern
sive fact-finding program for their
future use and that of accredited
organizations in the state. The
primary aim of the investigation is
to make available to physicians,
dentists, and organizations inter-
ested in child welfare complete
information concerning the medi-
cal, dental, hospital, convalescent,
ties available for the youth of Ari-
ZOna.
The practicing physicians of Ari-
Zona have requested the close CO.
operation of all civic and health
organizations of the state in order
to insure the success of the sur
vey.

in Arizona for 18 years, and then
became chief deputy assessor of
Pima County in 1927, which posi-
ton he resigned the following year
to enter private business. In 1929
he became Deputy County Treas
urer of Pima County, serving as
chief deputy treasurer for four
years beginning in 1881.
In 1884, Mr.. Garvey was elected
Pima County Treasurer and was
reelected to that post two years
later, but resigned in July 1888 TO
become city treasurer of Tucson.
The following year, he was ap-
pointed Assistant Secretary Of
State by the late Secretary, Harry
M. Moore, which position he effici-
emily filled until his appointment
by Governor Osborn in 1912 to
serve out Mr.. Moore's unexpired
term of office. In 1914, Mr.. Gar
vey was elected to the office of
Secretary of State.
Mr.. Garvey has an outstanding
record of public service. During
the eight years which he spent in
the County Treasurer's office in
Pima County and as City Treasur-
er of Tucson, many millions of dol
lars passed through his hands and
there was never a question as to
the proper accounting of any part
of the public funds. Since he has
been in the State House in Phoe-
nix, both as Assistant Secretary
and Secretary of State, he has
worked in complete harmony with
the Chief Executive and all of the
other elected officials of the State,
among whom he is one of the most
popular officials who ever held
state office. His background emf
nently qualities him for the posi-
ton which he holds and to which
he now seeks election at the hands
of the voters of the State.
Mr.. Garvey was married in 1912
to Thirza Vail, the daughter of

SERMONETTE
BY REV. L. b. NELSON
Theme: "Give God Time"

There is a special time element
envolved in every thing that God
does, oftimeS we become little
impatient and feel somewhat in
clined to want to tell God to hurry
up, and change things in our favor,
but we realize that it is impossible
to hurry God. God has His own
time, and methods by which He
works. We can see the results of
His invisible hand dealing with the
affairs of mankind. He is slowly,
but surely, changing this whole
worlds present set-up. He is do
ing this by eliminating many of
the social, and political barriers
that have retarded the progress of
the minority groups of the world.
It is said that the freedom of
India is a very important factor
in the thinking of those who have
held her back, and denied her an
equal chance to take her rightful
place in uman society. Look at
the State of Georgia, just a few
weeks ago God defeated a race
hater who sought public office, by
pulling down the main bar that has
subjected the Negro to inferior

Arizona, managed to put together
sufficient permits to secure oper-
alton between Phoenix and Tucson.
Pacific Greyhound, which had toll
Grated Sun Valley operations dur

Carver Oratorical
Contest Is Success

Five of Carver High Schools

in an Oratorical Contest, spon-
sored by the VIM. H. Patterson
Lodge, No. ATT of I.B.P.O.E. of w.,
Wednesday night, May Is, in the
auditorium of the Carver High
School.
Receiving first place, Miss Mat
tie Scott, Contestant No. 4, as ap-
peared on the program, spoke on
"The Constitution and the Negro,
won the unanimous vote of the
judges and the undoubted approval
of the keenly interested audience.
Miss Scott, who received a check
for $25, was outstanding in her
enumeration of words, her poise
and personality, won for her the
opportunity of competing in the
State Contest which will be held in
Tucson, Sunday, May 19.
If Miss Scott wins first place in
Sundays competition she will re-
ceive trip to California to the
Regional Conference where con-
testants will be eliminated to COM
pete in the National Contest to be
held in New York. She will be
given a chaperon and all expenses

SIS and contestant No. 5, Miss Jean
Scott, awarded 3rd prize of $40.
Consolation awards were received
by Miss Blanch Williams and Miss
Ethel Boyer, contestants No. 2 and
1 respectively.
These future citizens, who built
their speeches around "The Con-
stitution of the United States and
the Negro" are to be compliment
ed in their splendid efforts, having
a very short period of time in
which to outline and learn their
parts. Too much praise cannot
be given Mrs. Elgie Batteau,
teacher of Social Science at Carver
High School, who worked tireless-
ly with these young people until
the night of the contest; also, Mr..
Robinson, Carver High Principal,
whose cooperation with the Lodge
made this affair a success.
Mr.. Lloyd Dickey, chairman of
the Educational committee gave
the judges report. The awards
were made by Mr.. Charles Pat
terson, Exalted Ruler of the Elks
and Mrs. Lillian White, Daughter
Ruler, Grand Canyon Temple.
Also appearing on the pro-
gram was Miss Sadie. Hagler,
who rendered a piano solo, and

OBSERVATIONS
Bx MACK C. NANCE

The term, Social Security" as
applied to the Negro and whites,
is a flimsy veil, a camouflage, used
by the enemy to disguise, hide or
confuse the real hopes and aspir-
ations of the Negro.
In the first place, there is, and
of a necessity, two or more parties
concerned in this much-talked-of
social conspiracy. Has it been, au-
thentically, determined, if the Ne
gro is anxious, willing or throwing
"duck fits" in order to associate
with the whites?
Personally speaking; may God
never allow me to live to see the
day, when I am forced, coerced or
persuaded by city, county, state
or national legislation; to associate
with those whom I strongly dis
like. This, is of course, my per-
sonal feelings.
To Whom 1t May Concern
Be advised: that the social sta
tus of the American Negro, is
peacefully, pleasantly, satisfactor-
lily and permanently fixed. No
amount of silly assumptions, no
amount of puerile illusions, by our
enemy, will suffice to mar this fix
ture.
One among the many virtues of
a democratic way of life, is that all
persons (regardless of color, creed
or race) carries the prerogative of
choosing their associates.
What the Negro aspires most,
is an equal opportunity. This, he
will, must and shall (through serv-
ice to God) obtain.
