Picnicked on the river
Spread cloth on the bank
Dropped lunch in the water
And it promptly sank.
Ran for the bus
Was almost there
When I tripped on my feet
And swallowed my face.
Jumped the hedge
Guess where I lit?
T’was a mud puddle
That I hit.
Bob is stalwart
Bob has brawn
Yet how he does wilt
Mowing the lawn.
Went to the show
What did I see?
A great big hat
In front of me.
I take cars apart
To tinker I ache
Very few I can’t fix
Not one I cant break.
The boys on the street
How they do flirt
When they meet brown eyes
And black and white skirts.

BEAUTY and FASHION HINTS
Ann Watson Smitherman
Summer is here, and the torrid
days of heat cannot help but make
you uncomfortable. Here are a
few tips that will help you to en
dure the heat and also keep you
fresh and dainty.
An extra shower, the splash of
cooling cologne (instead of per
fume) the fresh nylons and clean
white cotton gloves, the mid-day
flick of powder in your sandals,
the extra seconds for holding hot
wrists under the cold water tap
after washing your hands are all
so relieving. Try the new liquid
deodorant instead of the solid
form. Try Revlon’s fashion plate
non-greasy creme face powder in
stead of your usual powder. A
lighter shade of lipstick for sum
mer wear and by all means spend
a little time on your toe nails be
fore wearing your sandals. Fin
ger tips, lips, and toe nails all in
the same shade of coloring makes
a good show at any time.
Give your hair extra curl dur
ing the summer months. The sun
and wind is very drying to the
hair and scalp. Brush it more
often, wash it more often, and
keep it oiled with a very light oil.

GOP Still Silent on Negro Bills
Sounding off loudly over the
veto of their pet tax “slash” bill,
Republicans are eloquently sil
ent over bill that would benefit
and protect America’s great
minority group.
For 15 years, the Repubicans in
congress have been underdog
minorities and in that time, they
clamored loudly and long for the
passage of the anti-lynch and
FEPC bills. They blamed south
ern Democrats for blocking the
bills they had “nearest their
hearts.” What they would do
when they got in power with
these bills would make the Demo
crats look very cheap.
With only a few weeks to go be
fore the adjournment there is
little likelihood that the Republi
cans will enact any bill concern
ing lynching, poll-tax or setting
up an FEPC. There is no hope
for them at this session.
As one well known writer
states, “_but now they are in
majority, the Republicans are not
so passionately eager to see these
bills passed.”
