Friends, remember the Men’s day
rally, which will be held June 2 at the X
A. M. E. church, Ninth and C streets. X
A splendid program will be rendered y
upon that date and every one is cor- A
dially invited to be present. Tne prin- X
cipal speaker of the evening will be y
Hon. Harrison J. Pinkett of Omaha. X
The Campfire Girls’ club will give X
their first play of the season for the J‘
benefit of the Old Folks’ Home, at ^
McKinley Center, on June 5. The pub- X
lie is invited to attend. Although this v
is a very young organization they A
promise to give something worth X
while. y
A mock wedding and living models
ill be presented at the Mount Zion
Baptist church Thursday, May 29.
A very successful meeting of the
N. A. A. C. P. was held Monday even
ing, May 26, at the A. M. E. church,
Ninth and C streets. Rev. Mr. Weath
erly of All Souls church was the prin
cipal speaker of the evening and spoke
very enthusiastically over the present
plans of establishing a community
i l l ', ! here. 'I’li" project, he sajrs, is
a big one and only with co-operation
car it be made successful. He rcadih
offers his support to all movements
of the N. A. A. C. P. and it is to be re
meml>orpd by the I.incolnites that it
was he who royally entertained Dr.
W. E. B. DuBois when he was here.
The next speaker was Attorney Sor
enson, who .‘poke upon the same lines
as Dr. Weatherly, saying that when
people are so narrow-minded as to
base discrimination upon color, it only i
displays their ignorance and should | ,"i
be ignored. Following these remark.’.! V
Mr. Harrison gave a brief synopsis i
of various co-operative projects and X
also pledged his interest and assist- y
ance wherever it would be most need- y
ed. The audience was then favored
with two melodies by the Refuge Mis- X
sionarv Singers, under the direction of y
Mrs. Richardson. Rev. I. B. Smith, A
president, made a brief talk and said X
that at the next meeting they hoped y
to have the present plans in better X
working order, also hoping to receive | X
most of the subscriptions to the com- y
munity center at that time and com-1 »*«
pletet he drive for the 400 member-1 X
ships. Mr. Luther Allen turned into ...
the ,-ecretary, Father T. McWilliams,
thirty-two memberships. The next
meetin"’ will he in the near future,
the date to be announced later.
A very pleasing audience was pres
ent to greet Dr. W. E. B. DuBois when
he made his appearance last Wednes
day evening. Their only regret was
that he did not have time to make a
longer visit in our city. While here
he was the guest of Dr. Weatherly,
pastor of All Souls church, Twelfth
and G streets. On Thursday, before
his departure to Omaha, Dr. DuBois
was entertained at a luncheon in his
honor at the Y. M. C. A. Rev. I. B.
Smith and Mrs. Nellie Maston were
present at this luncheon.
Mrs. Stella Crews left Wednesday
for Salina, Kan., where she will spend
a few days.
Lincoln will soon he able to boast of
its first Colored grocery store and X
meat market. It is now being pre- $
pared for opening on or about June 2 •*<
by two of our well known men in the X
persons of W. R. Colley and C. W.
Malone. They are both men who need ^
no introduction, as they are well X
known to the community and they X
readily assure us that, as ever, they y
will endeavor to give every one the X
best of service, both in quality of V
goods and efficiency of delivery. *
Lineolnites are proud of the busi- X
ness qualities of their people and they
are only hoping that in the next year
they will be able to boast of a bigger <j
and better Lincoln through the in flu- X
enee of their Colored business men. X
Splendid onnortunities are open foi •{•
wonder-working enterprises. We now
have two Colored restaurants, two X
tailoring establishments, grocery and •{<
meat market, several barber shops,
pool balls and other business. To X
enumerate briefly other businesses y
needed in Lincoln are the following: *
Dry goods store, drug store, bank, Y.
M C. A., furniture and hardware
store, bakery and many others which X
will not be mentioned at this time. %
Who will be the next to fall in line?
