PARISH STREET SATURDAY

the brothers who gathered with
us meath the holly be-decked
rafters of our favorite beanery
spoke of many things. OF course
there were deluge of utter
ances whose structures had been
reared away from the companion
ships of truth. However long be-
fore the midnight dwarf sneak
ed under the door and pushed
the hands of the faithful clock
around to twelve, the brothers
had drawn up sort of verbal
resolution to maintain, through
out the year, the friendly spirit
of goodwill AMI fellowship that
seems to come at Christmas. To
regard all men as brothers of
one thought and purpose and
reason for being, and to take
Christmas off the Calendar and
put it in the heart.
TO WHOM 1T DOES CONCERN
The brothers and sisters all
over town are sqawking because
no seats were made available
for Radio Favorite Bob Hopes
Shop January 18th in the city
Auditorium Hope is a fav-
orite among the brothers and sis
tiers and when headline attract
ions are brought to the city,
local officials shoull insist that
promoters allow some seating
space for Negro Citizens =.
