Health Coop sponsors a
Thursday evenings. 8 to 10. at the
Serbian Hall (15th South and Co
lumbar Way)-all Coop members
and friends are urged to attend
these classes so ably directed by
Helen Metlock. Rev White,
formerly of Pasadena, Calf. was
the soul-stirring speaker at the
First A.ME. Church last Sunday
morn. Metropolitan Opera Co.
has hired first Negro dancer -
Janet Collins. Janet appeared on
Broadway last season in cole
Porter's musical "Out of This
World" Everyone had their
ears right up against that radio
waiting for the outcome of the
Giants and Dodgers--course over
this way we're sorta partial to
Jackie ou-Know-Whati - so you
can Just about guess who we were
roofing for. Gil Johnson, the
wonderful emcee. can make any
joke amusing. It's his style of de-
livery. . Cute Emma Ellis heart
is showing over a lad named Oh
What's His-Name.
No conversationalist more down
to-earth than Mary Merriweather,
down at the Crystal Arms. She's as
sincere as baby's hug. Mrs.
Merriweather's mother is due here
soon from back Illinois way. :.
Good friend of mine always use to
tell me mo woman really makes
a tool out of a man. He merely
gives her the opportunity to de-
velop his Natural Capacitiesi
Understand the F. B. Eyes are
hanging round certain spots in
search of goofy-dust peddlers
Chatting with AL Baldwin the other
noon-found out the Mr.. Billy Elk
slime and George Shearing will be
in these parts round the oath of
this month-with Nat king" Cole
and Sahara Vaughn coming on in
November-Mr "B" will no doubt
be at the Civic. Right here
I'd like to stop and have a SER
ious talk to whom 1t may concern:
Instead of talking about how the
"teen-agers" are hanging round the
corners on Jackson and Madison
Street and how they're doing first
one thing and then the other
ending up in this dope episode
why not help them? When
those kids have stepped over the
line of our "so-called" conventional
law---do you go to them with words
Of encouragement and help-or do
you sit at home and say now if
that was my daughter or son I'd
do this and so"? You know it's
funny how some people can forget
so quickly that once they we're
youths-and there might be many
skeletons" in their life. And let
me add here-don't think for
minute that these youngsters are
dumb to the fact that a lot of Won
that are supposed to be examples
to them (of course they'll learn
later on up the road that Christ is
the only TRUE example) are doing
or have done the same things thew
are doing-but because of age and
experience you know how to slide
by certain consequences that they
haven't yet been schooled on-and
since they played they have to
pay" Yet You are the very ones
that are down on these fallen"
Young people. Let me make nv
self clear: am not condoning
their mistakes-nor am covering
IN for them even though we have
all sinned and come short of the
glory OF God-but do say-you
would have less juvenile delinquen-
cy II there were less adult delin-
quency. Remember you were young
once-there were temptations then
too--but 1t wasn't due to any good
ness In you that you came out on
top-thanks goes to the Kindness
Of the mercifuI Heavenly Father
