COLORED COMMERCIAL CLUB
Harry 0. Palmer, prominent attor
ney and lecturer on political economy,
spoke to a large group of Omaha’s
leading business and professional men
at the C. C. C. Thursday, November
20th, at 8:00 o’clock.
Mr. Palmer spent several years in
the Orient studying the Chinese’s cus
toms and related many Interesting ex
periences. He carried the group back
to the great Sphinx on the Sahara de- _
sert and explained how that mighty
stone image was a silent tribute to .
the colored people and the part they .
played in the economic progress of 3
the world. 3
The group was advised to study the <
elements that go to make up an or- 3|
ganization and after becoming ac- <
quainted with them, study self—that
they might become acquainted with 3
their abilities, and then organize them 3j
with the elements that go to make up i
a commercial enterprise. •:
He spoke of the number of colored *:
people in Omaha and how now he- ^
cause of lack of organization they i,
were making other groups independ- 3;
ently rich. Since this Is true, why •]
not organize that you not only will »|
be independent, but will be able to 3
employ your own boys and girls who J
are spending many years in schools •!
and colleges.
Dr. W. W. Peebles responded. The
commissioner gave a brief report of
the activities of the club during the \
past nine months. 3

N, T. WORLD PRAISES CARVER
FOR SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENT
(N. A. A. C. P. Press Service.)
Professor George W. Carver, Negro
- ——V-A"--^|
! | scientist of Tuskegee, delivered an
• address in the Marblfe Collegiate
I i Church of New York City, upon his
i work and methids, which arouBed
■ widespread comment and elicited the
following editorial in the N. Y. World
of November 20:
Science as Inspiration
George Washington Carver, Negro,
i who heads the department of scientific
research at Tuskegee Institute, de
i dares his methods are inspired by
God. In this day, when scientists are
assailed by many godly men, this is
surely an arresting statement. What
i manner of man is Carver? Who's Who
has this to say of him:
Born of slave parents on farm near
Diamond Grove, Mo., about 1864. In
infancy lost father, and was stolen and
•carried into Arkansas with mother,
who was never heard of again. Was
bought from captors for a race horse
valued at $300, and returned to former
home in Missouri. Worked way
through high school, Minneapolis,
Kan., and later through college.
Bachelor of Science in agriculture,
Iowa State College of Agriculture and
Mechanical Arts, 1894; Master of
Science , 1896; unmarried. Elected
member of faculty, Iowa State Col
lege of Agriculture and Mechanical
Arts, and placed in charge of green
house, devoting special attention to
bacterial laboratory work in system
atic botany. Teacher in Tuskegee In
stitute since 1896, now director of de
partment of research. Member Royal
Society of Arts, I>ondon, 1917. Award
ed Spingarn Medal, 1923.
We doff our hat. This bit of human
flotsam, stolen once, traded another
time for a $300 race horse, rises to a
point where he is awarded the Spin
Karn Medal for achievement. Now he
tells us that he admits no books to
his laboratory, that the correct meth
od is revealed to him when he needs
it, that all his useful researches in
agricultural products are God’s work,
not his. Well, why not? Men of his
race often seem uniquely close to the
Divine. Their music is inspired by
God, if ever music was, and who will
say that science is not inspiration? j

betrayed
Their first conversation
betrayed the fact that
she was not fastidious
AT a distance she had appeared
• unusually neat, immaculate.
But upon their first face-to-face
meering he discovered that her teeth
were not clean. And he soon lost
interest.
So many people overlook this one
matter of fastidiousness. And do so
in spite of the fact that in conversa
tion the teeth are the one most
noticeable thing about you.
Notice today how you, yourself,
watch another person’s teeth when
he or she is talking. If the teeth are
not well kept they at once become
a liability. »
Listerine Tooth Paste deans teeth a now
way. At last our chemists have discovered a
Polishing Ingredient that realty deans with
out scratching the enamel a difficult problem
finally solved.
You will notice the improvement
even in the first few days. And you
know it is cleaning safely.
So the makers of Listerine, the
safe antiseptic, have found for you
also the really safe dentifrice.
What are your teeth saying about
you today?—LAMBERT PHAR
