Tribute to LiIocs
Lucille A. Gaines comments that
while ilacs were first shipped to
the United States from England
in 1850. many are unaware that
the plant came originally from
Tibet. THE very name has q
lovely sound, mysterious and cool, ,
she writes, submitting the follow
ing poem:
From Asia came the lilacs.
| Their land of birth Tibet;
Sweet memories in me they stir,
| Deep-rooted in the earth.
Lilac shrubs are vagrants
Transplanted by strange hands;
SrFinsins Froms ,s1loa all fssgsan fssgsance land.
| Lilacs in the springtime
Beside my cottage door
A wealth Of purple bells in chime
With caravans Of yore.
| Dropping. in sweet fragrance
Around my cottage stairs
Lflacs swing in cadence
| With the lama's prayers.

Letters To The e ditor

Editor of the Miami Times,
Dear Sir: -
1t seems that there is night
spot that has a lot Of regard for
the colored folks Of this fair
city Of ours. Last year this club
had a Thanksgiving Turkey din
ner for the blind, cripple, and the
old folks and at that time they
fed over one hundred and fifty
people. All poor unfortunates
who are unable to care for them
selves, in order to make the af-
ternoon as pleasant as possible.
besides dining and dancing those
poor souls the managers had a
few bands and a floor show that
lasted for four hours, after the
afternoons activities all the
people were in wonderful mood
and they thanked the dear Lord
that they were not forgotten in
this hustle and hustle world of
today and that they had some
thing to live for and look forward
to. AS they left the club and en-
tered the automobiles to 20 back
to their homes there were smiles
and happiness on their faces. The
people who made this day pos
slb!e are the managers of the
cafe Society Night club located
on NV 3rd ave. at 20th st. This
past week on Christmas Day the
Harlem Square Club and the Cafe
Society worked together and gave
the same turkey dinner with all
the trimmings to those same old
folks. Let's take our hats off and
thank these fine gentlemen for all
the wonderful work they have
done in every field to help us
colored people in Miami. Ali the
good these men are doing will
never be forgotten. Thanks again
to you gentlemen of the Harlem
Square club and the Cafe Society
and continue your good work.

Sirs:
My attention was drawn this

of Drug Store which was referr-
ed to, but not identified, in the
article. AS a result of adverse
criticism that l have received. es-

public should be acquainted with

night:
approximately $50 pm. on
Saturday night, a Negro youth,
who l later learned was Kent
well Moncur came excitedly in
the store holding another boy in
his arms and yelling for help. At
the time I was in the rear of the
store preparing a prescription.
Willis Adams, the deceased boy,
was brought into the prescription
department, where I was work.
ing. / inspected his wound and
informed Moncur that the other
boy was seriously wounded and
needed to 60 to the hospital. Mon
cur then left saying he was going
to get one Willie Balm to help.
had one of my employees to hold
a towel over the wound and pro-
ceeded to have someone call for
ambulance. After that was done
/ called the Police Department to
inform them of the incident. Be-
fore an ambulance arrived, I was
informed that a Jitney was out
front that would take the boy to
the hospital. I called for help to
take the boy out to the Jitney,
only to find ii gone when we
reached the front of the store.
Shortly afterwards the Police ar
rived and took charge. / inquir-
ed of my employees the name of
the boy who had sought assistance
and reported this to the officers
in charge. / then went back into
the store to continue my work"
My purpose for writing %ais
article is to correct, IL possible,
the impressions gained by many
individuals in my community of
the alleged inactivity of my en-
ployees and myself in the matter
of attempting to aid the youth. !

the seriousness of the wound and
in seeking an ambulance to take
the youth to the hospital, / sin

youth all possible assistance that
I was capable of rendering him,
especially since the wound had
apparently ceased to bleed.
If you can assist me in correct

developing in my community, by
acquainting the public with these
facts, I will be indeed grateful to

This is what Rev. Daniels has
to say: 81 had been suffering for
a long time with ashes and pains,
but in the recent months this con-
dition had become considerably
worse. I would toss and turn all
night long. I was so miserable I
couldn't hardly eat a bite. heard
one day how other folks were
getting marvellous results from
HADACOL, so I decided to try 1t.
1t wasn't but a weeks time after
I started taking HADACOL that
I was able to rest easy at night.
Now my condition is considerably
better. My appetite is terrific -
l feel like I could eat every thing
on the table. HADACOL is Won
derful - l always tell folks how
it has helped me - and I urge
them also to try HADACOL."
HADACOL Is Wonderful
