• Colored People met last Sunday after
noon at Zion Baptist church at 4:00
o'clock p. m. The president remarked
upon the opening of the meeting that
the present officers had only three
mote months to serve and he would
submit a definite program for the re
mainder of their term of office that
he hoped would be carried out. He
also stared that if the membership
were not satisfied with their present
corps of officers it was up to them
to see to it that they elect the ones
they felt would best serve the people.
Mr. A. C. Oglesby spoke of an ar
ticle appearing in the current issue of
The Crisis by Dr. DuBois and asked,

ited number having read the article
the motion was lost.

the great benefit he had received
