| remember in my boyhood days
In every home a milk cow was
there
Milk and butter was part of the
expense
Of the food in home to prepair
ii.
Every home had feed for their
COWS
To increase the food for THEN
home
Those who failed to'feed their cows
In short time their COWS were
gone.
Gone where there is food for them
For their milk they gave in re-
turn
The interested man that feed his
stock
More milk his family earned.
~.
This is the result of feeding your
COW
And the same applies to women
and men
The people are starving for the
word of God
can see it from land to land.
Y.
When a COW gives you milk you
fail to feed
She begin to look for hay
One morning you'll milk her and
turn her out.
You see she'll go astray.
VI.
The same applies to the church to-
day
When you fail to feed Gods lamb
They will stray to another church
And many preachers souls will
be damned.
VII.
Christ said to Peter Feed my sheep
And this he said three times
And for this | see one meal a
month
There are many sheep commit
ting crimes.
VIII.
What's good for one race is gooc
for all
Why not obey Gods will
He sent his son to redeem us all
With his Blood on Calvery's hill

Things That
Interest Women
By BESSIE F. BELL

How Do You Look? What is
your problem, girls? No matter
what you think it is, if its's about
your not being a Hollywood gla-
mour gal, then your worries are
over. First of all, if every girl,
no matter who, or what her station
in life, would just remember that
the only difference between you
and the movie queen, is that her
hidden personality has been awak-
ened and brought to the surface,
while yours may still be asleep.
Each of you started life with
the same physical attractions. It's
true that some girls go farther
faster along the Road of Beauty
than others, but this does not nee
essarily need be, and its because
many girls know how to make use
of the little implements. The re-
suit is they carve a niche for
themselves in beauty's corner, and
therefore, they reign supreme in
the realm of beauty.
If you were not fortunate enough
to be in the glamour parade do not
dispair, for if you have the de-
sire, the patience and the stick
to-it-ness, you are sure to emerge
good looking, if not a winning
beauty. Oh, yes, there is still
room for the just the average
Miss, especially when she is blessed
with so many other fine qualities.
1t might mean different slant
on the entire subject if the al
ready not so beautiful girl knew
the outcome of a survey recently
conducted by a we'll known Uni
versity. The survey being of
course, for both male and female.
From the male side, character,
intelligence, congeniality, compat-
Utility, personality, understanding,
fair play, cooperation, good health,
and beauty. SO girls while you
are expected to have many ac-
complished qualifications, you must
also have beauty, and everyone
can possess beauty without being
lusciously glamorous.
FIRST AID-To Be Nice To Be
Near. Rip open the shoulder pad
in your dress, and sprinkle with
sachet powder, then sew them up.
Rub the powder in the armpit, at
the ankles, behind the knees and
on your throat. You might even
place sachet in small bag with
cotton, sew it fancy, and hang it
on your dress hanger, also on the
hooks in your clothes closet.
Send ten cents in coin to cover
cost of mailing for each leaflet
you desire. They are: Shining

LIFE AT A
GLANCE
By RAY LAWRENCE

Did you know that 8 out of every
ten persons arrested in New York
today for breaking in mailboxes
and stealing checks, are dope adj
diets I? But will somebody answer
this ? Where are these teen-agers
and groWn-ups getting all this
dope? Certainly, the u S. doesn't
produce that much heroin and reef
ers. These are sins that destroy
human morals and eat into the
physical growth of the nation. We
have laws to deal with these sins
but the dope traffic continues UNI
abated, and the mailboxes in the
larger cities also continue to be
broken open, and needy persons
checks are stolen.
Yet, not even the old mosaic
Law" recommends that anothers'
life be taken for an eye or a tooth.
But that is exactly what happen
in the State of of Mississippi last
week. Its a strange paradox that in
this modern age where such being
accused of spelling the morals
would provoke a state to retain
such laws as capital punishment
for such out-date offense-yet it
can only happen to a Negro.
With all the talk and legal in
vestigation into remedy for bet
ter relationship between races of
the World, One Third of The Ma
ton in the United States is not near
ready to concede that BLACK" is
only skin deep. What, with two
thirds of the World Black and
Yellow folks, GOD HELP AMERI-
CA" Yet America has devised the
best political and economic systems
the world has ever known. Its bas-
ed on Freedom to Worship, Free
dom to buy and trade wherever
you wish, Freedom to speak your
mind, and that may be where the
trouble lies - may be too much
Freedom.
But this country was founded
upon the principles Of the Bible
and although, the Negro was not
considered in the early development
of our present "Way of Life,
nevertheless, the pattern for "All
Men" to be treated on the same
basis was there, and today, you ask
why have not men in this country
recognized this fact? Well, for
one thing, The very principle which
underly this great Democracy, (The
Church) has not put into practice
what it breaches. If the Church
segregates, what do you expect of
other Enterprises. The Christian
World has great responsibility in
this crucial state of World history.
but 1t must assert vigorously the
courage of its conviction. If the
Church believes "All Men Are Gre
ated Equal" in the sight of God,
there is no better time than now
when such bold beliefs are so neces-
sary to combat the evil influences
that are threatened to overwhelm
and swallow up the world.

sometimes the tiny hummingbird will at
tack a hawk. when defending its nest.

Jays. cardinals, robins, starlings and
common sparrows would be good selec-
tion to finish off sick hawk.
All are vigorous. with good bills and
strong wings.
Few persons who rave about the beauty
Of the redbird have any idea of the
strength within the beautiful feathers.
Even an i'll cardinal can struggle with
such fury that it is impossible to hold
the creature without injuring it.
Robins are often ferocious fighters in
the spring. Their heavy bodies and
strong bills. with plenty of lung power
and strong neck muscles, allow them to
ny after foe until the latter is out of
breath. Then the inward dive and re-
peated pecking.
Mother cardinals sometimes are more
belligerent at nesting time than their
mates and chase all foes and suspected
foes away, proving veritable backyard

unusually strong bill and neck muscles,
