RECREATION
GOODS - Last Monday night
there was three hundred teen
ayers present at the weekly
COED meeting. We feel that we
are doing something for those
young people in keeping them
of the streets. They are full of
pent up energy and as long as
we can see that they are doing
something wholesome and clean
in disposing of that energy, we
are justified in giving our time
nights so that we can help the
mothers and fathers safeguard
their young people. We are
still looking for volunteers to
help chaperone. Any adult is
welcome.
PARENT ASSOCIATES-From
the report of Mrs. Batson, our
play school teacher, the concert
on March q was a success. Mrs.
Horton is to be complimented
on the selections and the rend-
ering Of her program. The
mothers are to be complimented
for the effort put forth In sell
ing tickets. The dance on the
26th of March for the play
school was also a success. Let's
keep going mothers. The Play
School is for our babies and we
all love Them.

cent jobs instead Of fighting for
new ones and anything else to
soothe Our feelings. l am be-
ginning to believe that there is
less real and true love among
the colored people than any
other groups. You must love
each and everyone to work to-
gether and that can't or isn't
being done in the city Of Baked
Beans today.
POLITICS
There is a time when any
election approaches, that every
one is feeling around and see
ing which way the wind is blow
ing, that is, who is the likeable
candidate to win, because we
all like to say after everything
is over, that my man is in" and
one hundred per cent Of the
time after our so-called man is
in we can't see him unless we
happen to attend some public
gathering or In a parade where
thousands gaze as if your man
is a prize bird, because that is
as close as you will come to see
ing him, yes, your man is in
but is he the right kind of man?
A man who serves all the people
and welcomes you at his Office
or home, whether you are Col
ored, Irish, Italian, Jew or any
other race doesn't matter to our
present Mayor, the Mayor for
the Poor. So my friends, sew
eral wagons will be passing by
soon, the right one will be in
that number and whether you
pick it will be entirely up to you.

ter ask someone.

ESSAY FOR THE WEEK
Community Spirit"


My dear Villagers, am won
dering and 1 am sure you have
noticed the lack of community
spirit and the lack of cooperation
in community sponsored affairs
in the old Hub city. I think you
can count the people on one
hand that are ready and will
ing at all times to contribute
their time for the benefit of the
colored people of Boston. There
are several organizations that
you and 1 might be forced to
call on some day. some of them
can hardly survive, but one or
two faithful souls keep plugging
along to keep them from dying
altogether. Why we as a group
show this lack of civic interest
Is hard to explain, when we
should of all groups work to-
gether in any affair when the
benefits derived viii reach into
each and every home and help
the youngest to the oldest.
Sometimes I think the colored
man takes cold and hard re-
venge against each other for
che all over treatments we re-
eeive fro mother groups = that
pent up feeling is in all Of us
and some time that feeling must
come out of our being and the
most logical person for us to
hit or release that emotion on
is our own friends and neigh
bors and too that would be less
discrimination on our part to
fight each other rather than
some other racial group. All
the prejudice and discrimina-
ton we receive from others we
get our revenge for through
many ways, by being selfish,
Jealous and even hating. We

ODDS AND ENDS
The reporter is glad to see
so many families doing their
spring cleaning, which makes
the whole village look brighter
and cleaner +. Some time ago,
said the halls in / baltimore

didn't mean families like the

always cooperate 4. The Main
tenance Department will trans
plant two hundred plants this
week throughout the Village

housekeepers, Mrs. Jackson, /
baltimore Court; Mrs. Paige, 1
baltimore Court; Mrs. Moore,
Mrs. CoulthurSt, 625 ShaWgnut
Ave-, and Mrs. Redd, 26 Trotter
Court &. So many citizens have
asked about the work being done
at Bldg. 3 and 10. Well. here
is the answer. When the con-
tractor laid the original sewer
line they covered it with bould-
ers and bricks, the main is inch
line and the two 61a inch lines
were broken and have dropped
several inches; due to this drop
we have had constant trouble
and all three lines will be re-
placed. We hope to have this
cleaned up by Easter AS was
stated last week, there will not
be any ball playing of any kind
or bicycle riding in the Village
area. All the citizens must CO.
operate in keeping the village
grounds and buildings looking
attractive as possible -. Viii

sented in large numbers at sew
