A. of A. Prices reasonable — Work guaranteed , Dark Merit BY KATHRYN FAVORS. Poems by Negro Poets. Other people do not believe the Negroes have sorrows. They think that Negroes are continuously happy because they can laugh and appear cheerful. The following poem expresses this thought: I like this poem: Violets. I had not thought of violets of 1st*. In wistful Aprtl flays, when lovers mate The wild, shy kind that spring beneath your feet And wander through the fields In raptures sweet. The thoughts of violets meant florists’ shops. And bows and pins, and perfumed papers fine: And garish lights, and mincing little top*. And cabaret and songs, and deadening wine. So far from sweet real things my thoughts had straved. I had forgot wide fields and clear brown streams; The perfect loveliness that God has made— Wild violets shy and Heaven mounting dreams And now unwittingly, you've made me dream Of violets, and my soul’s forgotten gleam. Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson. My people laugh and sing And dance to death— None imagining The heartbreak under breath. Charles Bertram Johnson. We travel a common road. Brother— We walk and we talk much the same: We breathe the same sweet air of heaven Strive alike for fortune and fame; We laugh when our hearts fill with glad ness. We weop when we’re smothered in woe; We strive, we endure, we seek wisdom; We sin—and we reap what we sow. Yes, all who would know it can see that When everything’s put to the test. In spite of our color and features. The Negro’s the same as the rest. I .eon R. Harris. Botts. Also that Mrs. Anna Allen is back after spending a few days in Hannibal, Missouri with friends and relatives. * * * Mrs. Vernon Lawer spent the week in Sioux City, Iowa and Stevens, South Dakota.
