YOU CAN HELP
yOU have experienced some irregu
larity in receiving your paper
during the last several weeks. No
one regrets this more than we. This
delay has been due to things over
which we have no control.
However, there is one thing that
would help tremendously in assuring
prompt delivery of your paper as well
as rendering a great help to improve
it. That is prompt attention to your
obligation to The Monitor. Watch your
label and when you see that your sub
sci^ption has expired, kindly send
your money into the office or call the
office and inform us when to send a
collector for it. This will go a long
way toward the improvement of both
paper and service.
THE MONITOR has striven for
many years at a tremendous sacrifice
to furnish you with a clean, high class
paper, one which is a credit to rather
than a reflection on the community.
There is a certain amount of expense
incident upon the publication of any
paper which must be met promptly
when it comes from the press. If our
i subscribers don’t pay, we have it to
I do. We know you don't want anybody
i footing your bills. We are not able to
I do it. You don’t want us to do it.
Now we are making this appeal to
you to see whether YOI owe any
thing and if so, come in or call Jack
son 3224 and some one will call on
you.—Business Manager.
SHOE PINCHES ON OTHER FOOT
JT is somewhat amusing to hear some
German authority recently, com
plaining to France that the presence
of her black troops on German soil is
a menace to civilization and boldly
asked France to dispose of them.
While he w as thus speaking, Marshal
Foch was saying on the rostrum of
Howard University, “France shall
never forget the costly sacrifices
made by her Colored soldiers.” It 1?
therefore less to be wondered at than
it is to be laughed at, when we reflect
on the great world conflict of 1914-18
in which there yas nothing too cruel,
nothing too barbarous, nothing too
uncivilized to the German so long as
it killed a human being. It will hard

vary grateful. We hope he will be
able to place his products in all Ne
