Something To
Smile About
BY Ruth Nelson Sawyer

New York (GlobaD - The 3Ost
beautiful face in the world can be
spoiled by a smile that reflects
dull, off-color, or poorly cared-for
teeth. Have you ever noticed how
much more confidently you smile
after you have just had your
teeth cleaned by your dentist? You
know, then, that your teeth can
stand being on display.
In these times, no girl should
have a complex because her teeth
aren't attractive, because modern
dentistry can work miracles. Co.
ing to the dentist is as much a
beauty treatment as going to the
beauty salon for a hair-do. A girl
who is conscious of her appearance
should visit her dentist at regular
intervals It is important to learn
how to brush your teeth properly.
Your dentist will be glad to show
YOU how to brush your teeth pro-
perly. Bad teeth are the cause of
unpleasant breath, and it can US
ually be corrected by proper dem
til care and the use of mouth
washes.
Then, Of course, there's the mat
ter of proper diet. Orange juice,
celery and milk are some of the
foods that are particularly good
for teeth. Orange juice contains
vitamin c and milk is rich in min
erals, both of which are essential
to healthy teeth.

The Ward Case Goes 70 Court
(From The Atlanta Daily World)

On Monday after two years Of evasion and denial
by university officials to his application to enter the
Univ srsity Of Georgia Law School Horace T. Ward a
young graduate OF yorehouse College and Atlanta Uni
yersy, has entered the Federal Court to seek training
in the state
In September 1850 Ward made his application The
registrar refused to admit him. the president of the
University failed to take favorable action and finally
the Board Of Regents refused to say yes mo- to
Ward who apparently qualified to enter the state
uli5. e3suE except 4Ur Tt>I&I III lti .iCati0n.
However, the Board of Regents which is the govern
ing body for the University system early this year put
into force rule requiring that all applicants for the law
school should take special examination
Ward, through his attorneys who also represent the
National Association for the Advancement of Colored
People, contends his petition filed in court that his APP
plication not handled regularly.
1t seems to Us rule adopted put into effect after
the Ward application should not apply to him
The suit charges that the universty's policy in
fusng Negroes adnittance solely account of their
race and color is violation Of the l4th Amendment to
the Federal Constitution It asks injnctive relief for
Ward and other members Of the Negro race.
In the light Of the Sweat decision in a Texas case
handed down by the Supreme Court in 1850 it seems
that Ward is sound legal ground not to mention the
moral aspects of the case.
It is vital that our people be given an opportunity
for equal professional and technical education Other
wise viii always be required to run handicap race
in cur efforts to live in this American society,"
All men of goodwill, especially those in public life
should join hands to end injustice and discrimination
based on race.
Despite the fact that the legislature at the COM
mand OF the governor passed bill last year which would
tie up the university funds if court orders the admit
ance OF Negro to the University of Georgia. we hope
the courts will with Ward.
The legislature made unwise and unjust move in
passing such legislation in the light of the 1850 court
decisions concerning education. So the members, it
seems Will simply have to meet and rescnd their action
This won't hurt anybody too much
But it is an obvious injustice and violation of the
Federal Constitution to continue to deny to Negro c
zens and tax payers Of Georgia EQUAL professional and
technical training offered to the white citizens.
The Ward case is that will bring results that
should be beneficial to the members of both racial
groups.

Says Whites Must
axe Interest I'm
Negro Education

NEW ORLEANS, La, June 80
White business men were told here
last week that ''you have not taken
enough interest in all phases of
your public schools"
Addressing the Members Coun-
ell of the Chamber of Commerce
Of the New Orleans area at a
noon luncheon was Mrs. Jacqueline
Leonard, president of the Orleans
parish school board.
Mrs. Leonard reminded the
board: "You have real and vital
concern in your public schools"
She cautioned them that the
most serious problem facing the
board is providing adequate school
facilities for the Negro children.
Some 10000 Negro children at
tended public school this year on a
platoon basis, attending half
day." she said. AS a result, many
of them became discouraged and
dropped out. Others were on the
street much of the time, which
means. trouble"
Mrs. Leonard cited practical
reasons for better education of
Negroes. She said that 'too long
we have carried the Negroes on
our backs. It is time to relieve the
burden and at the same time to
tap a new economic source"
She said that in order ito keep
Negroes from becoming tools of
various pressure groups, politically,
adequate education is necessary"
Mrs. Leonard deplored the fact
that the United States in 1913
spent more than twice as much for
liquor as it did on public schools.
