and Mrs. jackson for supervising
the making of the roses for the
picket fence, trellis and ramp.
The Fashion Show committee
wishes to thank all the young fell
lows that worked so hard in ar
ranging the hall and doing every
thing they were asked. We won't
forget you fellows. As usual the
printing was taken care of by
Stephen Douglas and I'm sure
from now on Steve will be called
on for his able assistance in all
community affairs. You might not
realize it, but Mrs. Mabel Jones
made big contribution in getting
all the fur pieces needed for the
show. She was in charge of all
models. I am sure she and the
Committee would appreciate your
letting Plotkins Brothers know
how much we appreciated their
contribution. If the reporter ever
is sponsoring any affair in the
future, he will be sure and have
Mrs. Lena Bailey working with
him. She is wonderful. Did you
know that the plans were drawn
for all decorations and the tutor
ing of the models and everything
in general took over four weeks
work, and after the show, it all
came down in less than thirty
minutes.
FASHION SHOW TID-BITS
by the Project Reporter
Fashion Show successful !.
Hundreds of people have asked
for Fall Show. Butler Hall
should have been donated to the
NAACP for this affair. Bill War
ren's music or some orchestra
should have donated their serv-
ice. The real reason it is hard
for any colored organization to
make a profit because they have
to pay for everything. They had
to pay for one rehearsal at Butler
Hall, rental of $50 chairs (they
rented vacant hall it seems) plus
taking up and down seven flights
of stairs. The Coca Cola company
donated the drinks through Mr..
Willis. My closing remarks,
there are more big shot, four
flushes in Boston than there are
cinnamon in China. L am sure
everyone noticed Mrs. Leila Cook,
Mrs. Myrtle Diggs, Mrs. Joseph
Tavada and Mrs. Doris Drum
mond. AAll looking smart and
having an enjoyable time. They
were fashion plates themselves. !.
There was Mr.. and Mrs. James
Ingram, Mr.. and Mrs. ohm Lay.

Royal, Mrs. Evie King, Mrs. Dor
othy Wilson and Mrs. Martella
Wilson.
