HEAD of Nebraska An Astute, Able, Clear headed Business Man OUR RACE CANDIDATES Do not overlook the fact that we have two candidates of our race who are running for the State Legislature, Dr. John A. Singleton in the Ninth and F. L. Barnett in the Tenth Legis lative Districts. Both candi dates are in strong republican districts and if the republican voters will be on the square with as they ought to be they will be elected. Let us who are in their respective districts see to it that we vote unitedly for these can didates. For whomsoever else you may vote for other offices if you live in th Ninth district don’t fail to vote for Singleton and if you are in the Tenth don’t fail to vote for Barnett. “THAT WAS ONLY PROPAGANDA” ^_ Many of those who were de nouncing Charles McDonald, whom they avowed, according to their certain knowledge, be longed to the Klan, and that any colored man who would vote for him at the primaries was “a traitor to his race and ought to be ostracised,” but who are now boosting for him, are saying “Oh, that was only propaganda.” Well, there’s an old Latin motto which reads “falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus,” which means he who is false in one thing is folsein all things. This may be more freely rendered in the par lance of the day, he who will lie once, will lie again. BE FAIR WITH BAUMAN Otto J. Bauman .the present County Treasurer, is candidate for re-election. He has made a most efficient and capable public official. Moreover, he has played absolutely fair with the colored people of Douglas county by appointing Orlo South, a competent qoolred young man to a clerkship in his office. W’hen a democrat of the high type of Otto Bauman plays fair with our peoplef who are so largely republicans, and gives us the recognition we ask, is it not only fair that we should play fair with him and give him our support? The Monitor is for Otto J. Bauman for County Treasurer because he has made a good official and has been ab solutely square with our people. Let us be fair with Bauman. CONGRATULATIONS, GIRLS The Misses Evelyn and Inez Battles are to be congratulated upon receiving scholarships from the Elks Educational Fund. The scholarships are worthily be stowed. The first Omaha re cipients are graduates of Cen tral High school, and are girls of good intellectual ability and fine character. Other worthy students will no doubt in time1 be chosen for like assistance in securing an education. The I. B. P. 0. E. W. are rendering in valuable service to the race and humanity by the establishment of this scholarship fund. The Elks have set a worthy example that should be and no doubt will be emulated by other fraternal organizations. BOARD OF EDUCATION Seven members are to be elect ed to the Board of Education. Don’t overlook the importance of this election. We should see to it, so far as we can, that we give our vote only to such per sons as will pledge themselves to see to it that our people are given representation on the teaching staff of this city. EVER LOYAL CL IB The Ever Loyal club, composed of the young matrons of the Pilgrim Baptist church, held its regular weekly meeting Wednesday night at the home of Mrs. L. H. Wynn, 2626 Seward street, at which time final reports of the Old Maid's con vention, recently held hy the club were made. This effort proved to be quite a success, for which they are indebted both to the members of the church and the public at large. Mrs. Mabel Mills, super visor of the club, who has just rteurned from an extended trip through the south was present and reported a very pleasant lime. Mrs. Mills attended the National Baptist convention at Fort Worth, Texas, the Evergreen association and he Tuske gee institute in Alabama, and many other points of interest. C. L.

Prigid aire cabinet models are priced as low as •245. All prices I. o. b.. Day too. WINTER weather is never a safe substitute for refrigeration. Even in zero weather, in door temperatures frequently rise above the point at which food can be kept without risk of spoiling. Even outdoor winter temperatures often reach the danger point. Hut the temperature of Frigidaire is a safe tem perature the coldest day in winter or the hottest day in summer. Foods come out of the Frigid aire cabinet as fresh, wholesome and appetizing as when you put them there. You have no more ice cards to remember—no more need to stay at home until ice has been de livered. You have automatic, dependable refrig eration every day in the year. New models now make it possible for you to have Frigidaire complete with cabinet at a new. low price. Or. if you now have a good ice-box. it can be converted into Frigidaire easily and in expensively. The greatly increased production of Frigidaire assures prompt delivery—and pay ment may be arranged on aonvenient terms. CHAS. E. WAGNER 2211-13 Famam Street, Omaha, Neb.

H. Smith j of Seward, Nebraska For STATE AUDITOR . i ■ 1 - —1 I — I -> ''I. Candidate for election to the position of State Auditor of Nebraska, as the nominee on the democratic ticket. He rilled this position from 1915 to 1919, and In 1923-4 ^served as State Tax Commissioner. In 1913 he was a member of the Stab- Senate, and In 1909 and 1911 was Secretary of the Senate. For almost thirty years his home has been at Seward, where he pubishes the S» ward i j Independent-Democrat. The duties of the Stat/ Auditor, in part, are similar to those of the County Board and the County Clerk com bined in the various counties, in that the Auditor passes on ail claims against the state and issues the warrants In payment thereof. During his former term the total amount of claims paid annually was about $6,000,000, or $500 000 per month, while at the present time the claims total about $15,000,000 annually. If his administration of public affairs has been satis factory to you in the past, and If you think he can be of service to the state as Auditor during the n< xt two years, he will show his appreciation by giving faithful service in exchange for your support.
