they decided to return to Lincoln by way

The small audience which greeted Tvflle.
M. H. Demby, mezzo-soprano prima donna

one. Mile. Deinhy has an excellent voice
and handles it well. Each number eli
cited encores to which the singer gracious
ly responded. Her numbers were “The
Dove”, by Arditti; next a group of four
including “The Sweetest Flower That
Blows”; “Absent”; “An Emblem” and
“The Daisy” and the closing number,
“The Flower of the Alps”. Carlton Good
let contributed a saxophone solo; Mrs.
Gertrude Shackelford, a humorous read
| ing and Gaines* orchestra furnished two
I selections.
KANSAS CITY MINISTER GIVES
ADDRESS AT PRE-ELECTION MEET
Dr. C. Sumner Williams of KansaB City,
Mo., noted throughout the country for
his anli-klan activities* was the prin
ciple speaker at a large pre-election gath
ering held at the Summer Garden last
Monday night. -
The speaker in a very interesting man
ner, yet forcefully, set forth the aims and
ideals of the Negro of to-day. He de
clared that a new Negro has come into
being in America and that the old hat
in-hand, belly crawling, spitoon licking
Negro was dead. In his place has come
the new Negro, not seeking any special
privilege or sympathy but the same jus
tice and fair play that is accorded all
citizens by virtue of our constitution. He
slated that the colored man of today feels
that if he is good enough to go ten
thousand miles from home to pull a trig
ger to make this country safe for democ
racy he is good enough to scratch the
ballot in the government of its civic affairs.
The Ku klux Klan, the spaker asserted,
was un-American. Men that hud to cover
their faces and deny their affiliation when
questioned about their order were not to
lie trusted. In every place where the klan
ha- been permitted to gain a foothold,
it has brought its spirit of intolerance
and the baneful effects which accrue
therefrom. Indianapolis permitted it to
thrive and the result was that regional
segregation was fostered on our people
"No white rnun," suid Dr. Williams, "no
matter how high or powerful, can be ab
solutely free unless the black man is free
also.” In his conclusion, the speaker
urged his hearers to make a prompt and
sane use of their franchise and that it
was treasonable to be indifferent when
vital is-ues affecting our people were be
ing determined.
Dr. Williams is a forceful speaker, has
a very engaging manner, and drove his
points home with adroitenss by tile use
of carefully and cleverly selected anew
dotes.
Speeches were made by Dr. John A.
Singleton adn other candidates for office.
