PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: There's a whole lotta
things that Amt Haggar's Chillun
are given to saying that ought to
have been forgotten right after
the first time they were spoken,
and some of them that got start
ed a long time ago still crop up
in the lingo of the tribe. | was
thinking about that as | sat in
enc Of the favorite spots of you
folks down at Baton Rouge, in the
sugar-cane section of Lou-Z-Anna,
where it was and partook of the
spectacle Of the Alcorn College
Braves beating the famous South
ern Jagur Cats to the tune OF
1913 to make them folks down
Lou-Z-Anna's way set up and take
notice o-the-fact that some thing
good can come outta Nazereee,
among the being Brother Dent, the
President of billiard University,
where | stunt ma tue gerls, who
journeyed all the way up from
NOO-ALL-EANS, from where he
had heard the news bout some
thing good coming down from
the Ole Magnolia But, what
| started out to say was somefin
bout some sayings O-The-T Tribe,
like the one | heard from a brother
in conversation about work, who
said NOW, FOR ME-, faint
MUFFIN IN DE WORLD

FIN If the 'spression heard
from Amt Haggar's Chillun from
time to time is mark of some
kinda philosophy, mode of think
ing, or psychological reaction, as
them smart folks say, lack my
daughter Lorraine, we'll here's one,
or rather there's one that ketches
the chillun o-the-tr on the
mark, cause the way | got it fig
ured out, and the way | sees it
working for everybody else, there
amt no way in the world to git
somefin widout dom somefin, and
i'm they am still mongst us in

The local branch of the NAACP

board for refusal to enroll nine
colored children at Phoenix Union
high and West high, DR.. R. B.
Phillips, president of the NAACP

Registrars at the school admit

that abolishing of segregation
should be approved by local cleo
ton.
Carl Sims, father of one of the
children said: II think it is a cry

The mule and horse are kin you
see
As well as the human race
The mule has a great big face
And a great long ugly face.
2
The mule didn't come from Zebra
His mother was a horse
And the Negro came from Africa
black
Didn't change his color until he
crossed.
He crossed the waters with a great
big lip
And a great big happy head
A great big nose on his face
And his foot like a mall and wedge.
The Negro has made a rapid
change
Since he has been in American
lands
Good looking women he has them
And a tailor made good looking
man.
There are very rev Negroes IN
America
The mix bred is taken the day
Ever since you changed his color
Things have been coming our way.
Too late to change the color of
your paint
You have got the first coat all
around
High yellow, we have plenty of
them
And don't forget our Teason
Brown.
l am only giving you good common
sense
The Negro has had a very poor
chance
He used to wear nothing but bro
gan shoes
And many made cotton gingham
pants.
8
When you brought the Negro from
Africa
He was afraid of any kind of of
train
But now he is as tame as any
race
He is riding in your big airplanes.
Stop fighting the hand that feeds
you
You are only in your own light
You have mixed the Negro from
A to 2
So you see | am telling you right.
10
The thing we need in America
Is some Jesus in the man
You are building churches on ev-
cry road
Somebody has mixed our race you
see
WIN blood and not any Christ
So you have got to be born again
If you are expecting eternal life.
II
II you are child of God, prove it
Stop fighting denomination any
where
And love We one another, Jesus
said
Be honest and be fair.

Discuss Plans for
Annual Camp Meeting
At Mt. Lake Park

Plans for the coming campmeeting
in Mt. Lake Park June % through
July were made last week at meet
ing of the Board of Directors Of the
Mt. Lake Park Holiness Campmeet-
ing association.
The group planned for enlargement
of the Campmeeting missionary pro-
gram. 1t was pointed out that addi-
tional financial support was provided
to aid in the enlargement of the medi-
cal missionary work in Urundi, in the
Belgian Congo region of Africa, where
DR.. and Mrs. David Stewart are con-
Quoting the work.
The Stewards are working under the
National Holiness Missionary society
but for several years have been sup
ported by the Mt Lake Campmeeting
The gas we'll on the campground
property makes it possible to enlarge
the work and provide for the needs in
this new mission field.
The Board was unanimous in its
decision that all the net proceeds from
the gas we'll shall go into religious
work with particular emphasis on
foreign missions. One member of the
board declared, "Since God created the
whole world, it seems right that He
should have at least one gas well dedi-
Gated to His service" Members of the
Board of trustees are Stanley Ashby,
c. S. Thompson, T. (. Schaeffer, T.
A. Kimmell and L. S. Ford, with Off
GERS of the association being O. H.
Calls, president; Stanley Ashby, vice
president; and |. E. Steyer, secretary
treasurer. The group, representing
four states, had luncheon at Oakland
before returning to their homes.
DR.. Calls, association president, at
tended the meeting, motoring from
Hagcrstown where he is engaged in a
church revival. He was accompanied
by Rev. Clarence Whalen and Rev

EaStbOund
Jail Gets Rating
Of Good and Clean

Once again the Garrett county Jail
was given good rating in the annual
report of the Maryland Board of Cor
rectiOn.
The building was declared to be
"clcan and sanitary" with no bed bugs
or vermin found. Plumbing was found
to be working and food served proper
ly three times a day.
The report once again has suggested
that the Garrett county Jail be con-
solidated with that of Allegany county.
In former years, this suggestion has
met with small favor by county Off
cials and those believing in the county
system of government.
1t was the suggestion that the
county Jail be used merely as a tenn
porary lookup. The Jail at present is
under management of the sheriff who
provides food under contract of so
cents per day per person.

Power Interruption
Causes inconvenience
To Many Customers
Electricity OFF for Eight Hours
When InSulatOrS Fail

A number Of Oakland business
places and homes were Inconvenience
last Saturday when the failure of two
insulators of the West Maryland
Power company lines caused disrup-
ton of electric service for eight hours.
The system being of the three phase
type, some customers were entirely
without current when the one wire
dropped to the ground some customers
had only partial service, while others
we're not affected at all.
Electric hoists and gas pumps at
garages were kept motionless, motors
were unable to turn over to keep re-
frigeration equipment moving proper
Iy. The Imperial plant on Third street
was without current, and only one
milk truck was unloaded prior to
about p. m. However, Paige Hick-
man, manager, declared that not a
can of milk was lost from souring, in
dicating the care the farmers are
taking these days in sterilizing cans
and having a clean product. 1t was an
off-day at the Carnation plant and
the interruption of current did not
bother it.
The local power company office was
deluged with telephone calls and pa
irons were advised to turn off their
electrical equipment to save possible
damage to motors. Frank kley, local
power company manager, said he had
received no complaints of damage to
motors and pointed out that if proper
fuses are used on motors, there will
oc no damage by low voltage service.
Klcy said about 800 feet of wire
was involved at point west of
Irellin. The current set the woods on
fire in the area, causing company en-
ployes to spend a good part of the
day in eXtinguishing the flames be-
fore the wire could be repaired. He
calculated that the 6,900-volt wire
fell to the ground in early morning
but that contact was still maintained
lecausc of the frozen ground. When
it began to melt about s Il. m, the
power was affected and the woods be-
gan burning.
Parts Of Oakland and Mt. Lake Park
were Inconvenience. 1t was the long
est interruption of service in several
years.
