Response To Minority"
Youngsfer Adoption
On WcCO-N Dec. ~

Miss Harriet Fricke, Coordin-
ator of the Parents-to-Adopt-Min-
ority-Youngsters Project (PAMY), =,
announced today that Response
to a Minority Problem" will be
shown on WCCO-Tv (channel A.
on Saturday, December % at /
pm.
This program is the sequel to
"a Minority Problem" shown on
television last March.
Response to a Minority Prob
lem" describes the progress which
has been made in finding adaptive
homes for minority race children
in Minnesota since the first pro-
gram was shown. It also describes
a new development in adoption
the placement of Negro children in
white homes.
Both television programs were
made with the cooperation of
PAMY, recruitment project
sponsored by Minnesota welfare
agencies.
A serious defect in Minnesota's s
adoption program, according to
Miss Fricke, is the lack of adop-
tive homes for various kinds of
children and particularly minority
race children. "As a result" said
Miss Fricke, these children grow
up without parents. This not only
creates problems for the young
sters but in the long run for socie-
ty as a whole. Thru PAMY it is
hoped to reduce the number of
unasked for children"
Miss Fricke urged that local
residents watch the coming pro-
gram which she described as ZAP
pealing because actual children
needing homes are shown" She
also suggested that anyone inter-
ested in applying for an adaptive
child contact PAMY, 5th Floor,
Centennial Bldg, st. Paul 1, Min

Cries Shocked BY
Death Of Mrs.
Aqnes Ellis Shanks

The Twin Cities were shocked
to learn Of the sudden death Sun
day Of Agnes Ellis Shanks, 3725
Fourth Av. S., member of a pion-
eer st. Paul family. Mrs. Shanks
was the wife of Lloyd Shanks.
Mrs. Shanks died at the Mime
apolis General hospital Sunday,
Dec. 16, where she was rushed
suddenly from the home of Mrs.
Ruth Pierre, 3937 Portland Av.
Mrs. Shanks was found i'll,
slumped on the front porch Of the
Pierre home by Mrs. Pierre when

In order to purchase homes in
the city and the suburbs, most Ne
groes have had to bypass the es-
tablished real estate industry to
seek other avenues to obtain a
home or apartment. The tempo of
upward mobility among that part
Of the Negro population which is
now at the bottom rung Of the
economic ladder is connected with
the further progress of Negroes
higher up the ladder.
This situation is illustrated by
citizens with complaints who walk
into public agencies like the Chi
cago Commission on Human Re-
lations or commissions in other
cities. Complainants who say that
they have been racially discrimin-
ated against in hiring or promo
ton are, almost without exception
low income adults seeking job
security and good income.
However, housing complainants
are usually people with college
education, satisfactory jobs, and
good incomes. Having found steady
jobs, they now search for better
housing opportunities for them
selves and for their families.
Job complainants testify to the
existence of a sizeable non-white
population who are unemployed,
on relief, and, by northern urban
standards, poorly educated. They
present the metropolitan communi-
ty with some of its more serious
problems.

Rev. Johnson selected as the
subject for his message "a Suit
able Gift For The King. He COM
pared the gifts that were brought
to the young child to our own
lives. They brought gold, frank
incense and myrrh. When Jesus
was born there were open hearts
and glad and joyous singing, divine
music from on high.
When we select a gift for a
friend or loved one we try to sell
ect the most precious and expen-
sive. Gold, is precious substance;
it has a soft glow; it is mallible
and ductible. 1t represents the most
important part in the Holy Trim
iity. The only way we can be saved
is through faith in Jesus who died
on Calvary. Myrrh is fragrant,
bitter oil which is used in perfume,
medicines and even gargles. So
with Jesus he is food for our souls.
The Lord is good, but had his bit
| ters with his sweets. Frankincense
is also a fragrant substance that
is used as a preservatives. Christ
preserves us from all sin, which
can only be wiped out through his
forgiveness. The gift that we can
give to the King is our own lives
which is precious in life and love.
Uniting with Church from christ
ian experience were Mrs. Carman
Holt and Mrs. Gussie L. Lewis.
Usher board No. 2 were on duty
