his feelings. He could

ms feelings. he could
conceal anger. envy, humiliation - even fear;
but he was no good when it came to concealing
his appreciation of beautiful things.
AS the airliner from the States approached
Havana in the golden evening MIR. Knowles
thought he had never seen more soul-stirring
landfall. He felt catch in his throat and
wished there were some memento to remem-
Der it by. His eyes cleaned with pure delight,
his lips moved against his teeth as if savoring
some rare nectar.
But when the plane landed he sighed: return
ing to earth. one returned also to its irksome
problems He was spare man. quite bald,
neat as pin. The thought of the mess he
might find in Santa Clara made him feel his
age. He was sixty. And he liked Guy Whitman.
But he arrived brisk and urbane at the
hotel in the heart of Havana. His innate
optimism was in the ascendant again, and he
signed the register with bony. vigorous
hand. Catching sight of Guy Whitman's
name further up the page in no way surprised

pany's trouble-shooter on personnel matters.
Whitman headed the Santa Clara Office.
He said. "Ah, MIR. Whitman's here"
The desk clerk nodded Eyes, sir Oh. yes,
indeed; MIR. Whitman has been spending each
week end with us for the past month"
''Oh?" MIR. Knowles said, concealing his
surprise with an amiable twinkle. Mrs. Whit
man also, occasionally daresay?"
I'VE have never had the pleasure, sir"
In HIS room, stuffing his pipe Mr.. Knowles
said, obj" again, but he did not twinkle. He
gazed hleakly down at the Prado, where the
trade wind coming in past the Moro rif1ed
the laurel trees.
1t troubled him that man married only
year should choose to spend month of week
ends away from his wife and Santa Clara
home. No wonder Whitman's Office was going
to pot! Replies to letters and cables were

Knowles asked himself, was the gay, quick,
sparkling young man he had seen less than
two years before? He seemed now to bear a
grudge against the world; against the music,
against this place.
Mr.. Knowles leaned back, touched by
zephyr of disenchantment Then he saw the
dancer come spinning out on poised toes. her
costume little more than feathers. She was
the most beautiful creature MIR. Knowles had
ever seen and she moved like whirlwind. She
paused for only an instant in front of their
table, but Mr.. Knowles, with a start, recog-
nized her. She was Baby. He threw glance
at Whitman and saw contemptuous indiffer-
ence in his eyes and sarcastic curl at his
mouth. Lovers quarrels. he thought, could
be more venomous than domestic pickering.
But Mr. Knowles had little time for Whit
mans outrageous display Of i'll humor He
knew beauty when he saw it. and exquisite
grace. He leaned forward. following Baby's
every movement. His eyes cleaned and his lips
moved and he thought of woodland nymphs
and youth and innocence.
The sudden crash of fist on the table
almost tipped him over backward
You old goat" Whitman roared. you
and all the others - look at them - with
their eyeballs hanging out" He stood up, and
there were tears in his eyes. And you -
yom!" he croaked at Baby, poised an arms
length away Then he sobbed and rushed out.
Mr. KNOWLES sought her in her dressing
room little later My dear" he said, I'm
sorry. I'm awfully fond of him, really, and
he's not himself -" But his grave concern,
he saw was pontless.
"Oh, I'm so happy" she said, holding her
robe close about her Every week end he'd
come and be superior and contemptuous He'd
say he didn't give hang about my dancing
half naked; it was just that my dancing was
no good"
She laughed through her tears And did

ing? The big dear. sweet. wonderful fool!'
Mr. Knowles equanimity, as he left the
jungle Drum. was little ragged at the edges.
He went straight to Whitman's hotel room
and found him pacing like Gagged lion.

man said, never to speak to me again. I'm

down through the leaves. 1t was frequently
home, and the husband went off philandering
and found no peace. only guilt and the evil
temper it generates. No peace, only COM
pulsion to spend his guilt on the other woman.
MIR. Knowles stepped behind a tree at the
sound of Whitman's gruff voice; heard it say,
moment later, "The Jungle Drum" its tone
an almost spiteful rasp. When the taxicab
had driven off Mr. Knowles went back onto
the Estrella Patio. He spent an hour dining
and fingered on with his coffee. When at last
he rose his foot bumped against some object
on the floor. He picked it up: well-thumbed
volume of Rupert Brooke poems. with Love
to Baby from Guy" inscribed on the flyleaf.
Mr.. Knowles slipped it into his pocket and
told taxi driver to take him to the Jungle
Drum He wondered if Whitman wooed all
his girls with volumes of poetry.
The Jungle Drum" was rather better than
he had expected. the jungle atmosphere being
confined to murals and an orchestra platform
built to simulate an immense drum. The
crowd seemed well-to-do. Mr. Knowles now
felt he ought to meet Baby in view of the fact
that he would later meet Mrs Whitman in
Santa Clara.
But he did not see Baby in the Jungle Drum
Whitman sat at table alone. his shoulders
squared and his face set in kind of grim
aloofness Mr. Knowles crossed the dance
floor. little disappointed but on the other
hand glad to find Whitman.
This. Mr.. Knowles said, holding out his
hand, ''is an unexpected pleasure"
Whitman shook his hand without taking his
eyes off him. They were deep-set, dark, prob
ing. What are you doing in Cuba? didn't
expect you in Santa Clara until Tuesday"

Knowles said amicably. Il like to spend a

thirty-two, and his future already in jeopardy
Domestic trouble, of course. Mr.. Knowles
surmised; and he tilted his head wistfully. For
he had looked forward to meeting Mrs. Whit
man ever since she had acknowledged his
small wedding gift with a letter full of
brides wide-eyed wonder. Too wide-eyed, he
supposed now, for man like Whitman, who
had always been one for the girls, man who
lived his own life his own way.
Mr.. Knowles picked up the telephone and
said, ''Will you please ring MIR. Guy Whit
mans room?" And when he was told there
was no answer, 'EWill you be kind enough to
have him paged?" The doorman. he was
informed five minutes later, had put Mr.
Whitman in taxi for the Estrella Patio.
1t was garden restaurant MIR. Knowles
remembered from previous visit, and he saw
no reason why he shouldn't dine there again.
If by chance he should run into Whitman. all
the better; it might give him an opportunity
to reconnoiter the personal angle before his
necessary examination Of the Santa Clara
Office Sure enough, Whitman was there; but
there was more to it than that.
MIR. Knowles, always discreet, stepped back
from the foyer when he saw Whitman at
table with a beautiful young woman. He
nodded absently as the headwaiter said there
would be little delay about seating.
WHITMAN, he saw, looked thinner. almost
haggard; big man with shock of unruly
black hair who seemed tonight to be in ill
humor. At any rate, he scowled a lot and the
muscles of his jaw rippled as he chewed his
food in silence. The young woman said MOTH

doodling with spoon; smiling wistfully once
as if at some passing thought.

Prior to entering in the
discussion of the volume, the

highly, mentioning the fact
that the book was jointly
written by the author and
his wife, thus bringing the
viewpoints of both father
and mother to the reader.
The five chapter headings
were outlined and reviewed
in a most comprehensive and
scholarly manner. Many of
the actual problems disturb
ing the home, and possible
solutions were included. The
following were the chapter
headings that formed the
outline for the review: "The
Whitening Away of the Fam

Throughout the review the

book, and the Importance of

p. M. on behalf of Delegate
Ernest Robertson. DR.. Har.
ny T. Penn was master OF
ceremonies. Following the
invocation by Rev. T. B.
Wright, the audience was
led in the singing of the Star
Spangled Banner by Mrs.
Alice Moore. The dignitaries
who We're seated on the ros-
trum were then presented
to the assembly.
The speaker of the day,
Hon. Jean M. Capers, was
then presented by Elder S.
w. Hylton, whom DIR. Penn
introduced as one of the
gentlemen of Roanoke will
ling to go along with any
one who was interested in
the welfare of Roanoke citi-
zens. AS Mrs. Capers walk
ed to the speakers stand,
Mrs. Polly Weeden presented
her with a lovely corsage
from her sisters in Lynch
burg of the Delta Sigma
Theta Sorority. In her pre-
sentation, Mrs. Weeden re-
marked that the Deltas, 49,
600 strong, were proud of
Mrs. Capers' accomplish
ments in many areas, but
particularly were they proud
to know that she still cham
pions the cause of the little
man and the underprivil-
edged.
Mrs. Capers was dynamic,
straightforward, interesting
as we'll as delightful. Among
other things she stated chat
she was a Democrat because
she believed in the philoso-
ply of the party. IF"
she said, u" you have a few
hundred thousand and are
looking for protection then
the Republican Party is the
one you're looking for, be-
cause it protects the interest
OF the wealthy man. But,
if you're a wage Garner, like
99.5 percent of my people
are, and if you're looking
for some consideration for
you and all the people of
small incomes like your
selves, the Democratic Party
is what you're looking for.
The Importance of any two
party system is that one acts
as a check for the other"
In another instance she said
that good government and
good citizenship is just gooC
business. "A G. a n, too
she remarked, that citizen
ship, like all other worth
while possessions, will bt
won only in comparison with
what you put on the dotted
line. Too often we, as Ne
groes, are not willing to pay
for privileges. We want first
class status but we offer
second class solutions. CT
tizenship must be bought
and paid for with a price. Il
we are interested in an ulti.
mate objective we must keer
at it, until we can convince
people of the importance Of
the vote. If your represen
tative fails to really repre-
sent you when he is in of
flee do as Congressman Daw
son told me to do, Don't get
mad, but get smart, and put
him out with your solid vote
