wherever he performed, endearing himself to both colored
and white alike, 1t seems perfectly natural then, that Mr.. Will
|Lams' niece should be the founder of GIRL FRIENDS, Inc.
the well known organization on the Mainland whose prime
purpose for being, is ~furthering friendly and social relations
between colored womenin the various cities:
ACTUALLY the idea was born over a sociabIe pot of
stew, some twenty-five years ago. In the lavish Williams
apartment, Eunice Shreeves, together with four other girls,
planned and founded the organization that has expanded to
eighteen chapters along the Atlantic Seaboard, reaching out
to embrace Albany Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Chi
|cago. Conceived in the name of FRIENDSHIP, with charity
as a secondly purpose, the nationally known GIRL FRIENDS
INC. has brought forth abundant fruit to ripen through the
years with the warmth of countless FRIENDSHIPS. Friend
ships have budded and grown to span miles and miles and
miles, weaving the chapters together into a firm bond, like a
beautiful garland. :
EUNICE SHREVES was born Incubator baby in Chi
cage, of French, Indian and Negro extraction. Her maternal
grandfather was closely associated with Frederick Douglass
and John Jones in the Underground Railway activities in the
Rockford and Peoria, I'll, areas. She received her education
in the public schools of Chicago, New York City and its en-
virons. An honor student, she graduated from Cheney Col
lege, and did additional work, including a scholarship to
study race relations at Hunter, CyC.N.Y. and the University
of Chicago. Teaching in the public schools Of New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania, she later became assistant to
the Director of the Dept. Of Geneologya NewberTy Library,
Chicago. Miss ShreeveS versatility eventually. led her into
the field of crafts. AT the moment, she is a casting %technician
with the worlds largest diamond and platinum jewelers.. In
her spare time, she i~nterprets her own designs. of exotic cos
tunes pieces in copper and silver. Any item from the Shreeves
Collection is truly an artistic masterpiece.
JUST AS SHE CASTS precious metal Eunice Shreeves
cast a precious idea, GIRL FRIENDS INC. that will immor-
talize her as a Champion Of Friendships and a contributor to
Inter-rdcal Friendships and Brotherhood She is honorary
president of the organization she founded and each year she
flies from Chicago to attend the conclaVe. Friendly, clever
and well informed, no one can resist Eunice and she is be
loved by all who know her. FRIENDSHIP and BROTHER
HOOD are blood kin. A THEIR RACE INCREASE,
EVER.

SOUNDING OFF

Speaking Of BROTHERHOOD y FRIENDSHIP
BROTHERHOOD WEEK, just ended, is a seven day
period designated to bring harmonious relations between the
peoples Of the different races, colors and creedS that make
up the population Of the United States Of America.
BROTHERHOOD for the good Of Mankind is being mem
toned on practically every radio and T.V. program many Of
which are featuring the once popular song LoOe Thy Neigh
Dor. This annual national effort is more or less commendable
because it is a public acknowledgment of the existing i'll will
between the peoples of different origin and faiths, an exceed
ingly better policy, by far, than the erstWhile one OF denying
and ignoring a dark truth and thereby brewing a dangerous
fermentation. Any malignant condition, physical civic or ma
tional is best remedied when exposed, brought out in the
open and attacked. Hate and dissention are enemies of peace
and friendship that foster the UNITY our government is
anxious to promote not only for internal tranquility but also
for AMITY between it and other countries. Comes along a
day, maybe, when there will be no need fol, BROTHER
HOOD WEEK, when hate and distrust that human beings
harbor for one another now, because of a difference in ones
pigment and prayers, will be negligent.
AT H MOMENT, racial hate, a progressive disease, is
spread just as deadly typhoid is spread, by carriers, men and
women whose spleens reek with intolerance and prejudice,
whose hearts and souls are wizened by it, who spread their
Iepros bigotry with insidious persistence. These social bacteria
should be cold liquidation, guaranteed indefinitely for the
good OF the nauon' LII recent yeais' a''aeN 6iouPo 80

Former Ottawa Countian Thinks Ohio Is
TOO Crowded" After Spending 33 Years
AS Trapper, Prospector In Frozen North

After 33 years of homesteading,
trapping and prospecting in the
Canadian Northwest Territory,
George Magrum, native of Oak
Harbor, is enjoying a reunion with
many of his friends and relatives
in Ottawa county
Mr.. Magrum is currently staying
in the home of his brother, Robert,
who operates a 50-acre farm on
route 3, Oak Harbor.
Since his departure for North
Dakota in 1909, George Magrum
has visited his home county only
twice, once in 1912 and again in
1920.
He remained only year in
North Dakota, where, becoming
interested in romantic tales of
trapping in the North country, he
struck off for Saskatchewan pro-
vince. He first tried his hand at
homesteading, farming large
wheat acreage in the Canadian
plains go miles from Moose Jaw.
Becomes A Trapper
After farming for Is years, Mr.
