FOR RENT—Furnished rooms in modern home, 2715 Miami street.! Webster 5488. 2-t. RETIRED FROM BUSINESS Mrs. H. J. Crawford and Sons, who ! have conducted a ladies’ and gent’s furnishing store on North Twenty- j fourth street, for several years, wish to announce to their many friends and patrons that they have sold out their stock and gone out of business. THE LAKE THEATRE EMPLOYS MANY NEGROES If all the North Side merchants and firms, who have a large patron age among our race, employed our people in the same ratio as the new Lake theatre does there would be no just ground for complaint. The Lake theatre has eleven regular employes. Of this number seven, mor than half, are colored. Not only this, but ever since the new Lake opened it has carried an average of ten inches a week of advertising in The Monitor | and until its suspension it carried i weekly space in The New Era. ! There are Twenty-fourth street mer j chants who neither employ colored help nor purchase an inch of adver tising in race publications. These are | the ones for “The Civic League”— whoever he is—to talk about boy cotting and not those who are giv ing our people reasonable recogni tion in the matter of employment and patronage. PETERSEN’S BAKERIES “My! This is what I call good lemon pie. It reminds me of the kind of lemon pie my mother used to make and she was an expert on lemon pies. I can hardly believe that this came from a bakery.” j “But it did, my dear, from Peter sen’s Lake street bakery.” This is from an actual conversation which occurred in an Omaha home, after its owner, seeing the ad of the Petersen bakeries in The Monitor had bought one of their lemon pies. He’s a regular customer now not only for lemon pies but the other fine products of the Petersen’s bak eries. And you, too, will get the j habit if you buy goods from Peter sen’s.
