HEN HANDWRITING
APPEARS ON EGGS
AT MOTLEY HOME

Maybe the hen has absorbed
some education from nearby
Tuskegee Institute. Anyway,
somewhere along the line she
seems to have learned to
write.
Frank Motley, who lives in
North Greenwood, is showing
friends his pet hen which lays
eggs almost every day on
which are fine lines that re-
semble handwriting.
One such egg has his own
initial, "F. NJ" clearly in
scribed on one end, Another
had the word 'No" which was
perfectly formed in fine
script.
Frank says the Rhode Is
land Red hen is a pet and fol-
lows members of the family

l returned to America with
a determination to see to it
that our brothers and sisters
IN our Southland shall enjoy
like freedom. The Negro
Church of America must have
one voice in Washington
speaking in the interest of
its members. This is being
done through the Washing

Fraternal Council of Churches
and we must keep its doors
open 365 days in the year.
The National FraternaI Coun-
Gil of Churches is needed to-
day more than ever.
On account of our desire
to have more UNCONVENTIONAL
leaders present, the date has
been changed from April 80
to May z. l am, therefore,
making my last appeal to you
to meet me at the annual
meeting of the National Fra
ternal Council of Churches in
Jackson, Miss, on May 7, 8
and 8, where we hope to have
a thousand Christian leaders
together to let the world know
that we want freedom and
first class citizenship for
all our people in America.
1t is going to mean great
encouragement to our people
in the South for thousand
| Negro preachers and leaders
to assemble at this time in
their interest.

CLASS PROJECT
PROMOTED TO
HELP PEOPLE
MONTGOMERY, ALA.

New York, April 12- A lit
tie four page newspaper,
priced at 5 cents a copy, and
put out by group of 11-year-
olds, reaped one Of the hap
piest contributions to reach
the United Negro College
Funds 18th annual appeal.
Not content with working
on a plan to support foreign
relief, Class 81 of Public
School 80, the Bronx, voted
also to "help people within
our own borders" Their his
tory lessons had made them
. aware of great Negro leaders
and of the people of Mont
gomery, Ala. In their own
way they felt it important
that they help Negroes who
are seeking achievement and
enlightenment in the face of
great odds. They thought
the United Negro College
Fund was ideal for relaying
their message.
Mrs. Edith Wilmer, teacher
of the class, suggested a news
paper that could be sold to
other classes at P.S. 90. Thus,
Junior JourneP was born.
1t was dedicated to "all fight
ers for freedom" Poems, his
torical sketches, news stories,
illustrations, questions and
answers and interviews were
included in the paper. Junior
JourneP was sold to students,
parents, and neighboTs.
In her letter to UNCF, with
a $3.50 check, Mrs. Wilmer
wrote 81 wish you could have
seen the enthusiasm and
pride that shone from their
faces when they counted the
pennies, nickels and dimes.
We hope the small sum we
are enclosing will in some
way help in your great under

II you believe the quality Of .

who NEVER have an engage

ment ring Is not essential TO an
engagement. 1t Is merely proof
that a boy has asked girl to
marry him and she has ac-
cepted his proposal. OF course
a wedding ring Is essential be-
cause 1t Is used in the marriage
service.
Since your father already has
given his consent for you to
