Homer Burdette) __ On Thursday, Sept. 22, Rae Lee Jones, our Society Editor, gave me the most desirable detail I’ve had in my two weeks of Reporting. I was told to get the Story of the Earl Hines dance, at the Dreamland Hall. In going to the Dreamland I stopped to view the crowds listening from with out. Upon the fire escape on the North end of the building, there were about ten gents peering in the hall. Thsee boys all seemed to be anxious to join the crowd within. In the front of the building a small crowd stood watching the dance goers enter the door and ascend the steps that lead within. On the South stood a crowd of youngsters. Some stood peering in, others were trying to climb the fence to reach the roof so as to join the former. I, after seeing this scene, as cended the steps to Dreamland. After a few words with Mr. James Jewell, I entered the door and beheld the most spectacular crowd I ever saw. How beautiful the Sepias look under col ored lights. These people are incom parable in the art of dressing. Greens Tans, Blues, Reds and all, rushing to and fro laughing talking and poking fun. I managed to get a glimpse of the formation of a first love, the Girl has a look that wasn’t any too joyous on her face. The man in the act sees her and nine chances out of ten, found her beautiful features irrestible, and may have become romanticly infat uated. It seemed as though he was glued in his tracks. The girl looked up at him, smiled, then dropped her head. Love bird* I whispered to my self. The orchestra entered upon the platform. This act of mutual duplic ity carried on for several moments, then the band began. The boy then seemed as though he was trying his best to move, his arm moved slightly, look out I thought; No she replied to luts ilili uucr ui tnis teiepnoric love scene. The boy then escaped the grip of fear. She accepts, there they go gliding along the floor. What is up here? Several girls surrounding a young lady clapping hands while she does the snake hips. The whole crowd danced nicely. Sepias, tans, '•Pinks and white folks attended this colored folks affair. Then I looked around in time to see Earl Hines, Charles Allen at hi sleft, William Franklin at his right. These gentle men swayed the crowd singing “Sweet Sue.” Mr. Hines band then strutted their stuff. 650 hearts were syncro nized with joy by this incomparable orchestra. Mr. Hines rippling his nimble fingers fro mone key to an other, shaking his shoulders, bobbing his head, patting his feet, enough to inspire even the saddest heart. Now Omer Simeon, Barnell Howard and Cecil Howard, raise their saxophones and demonstrate their talent. I man aged to catch myself bobbing my head and patting my feet. Here comes Bill Franklin to the front, to sing my fav orite “Paradise." She takes me to Paradise isMr. Franklin’s intensify ing rendition. Mr. Franklin has one of those Baritone voices that make love-sad hearts cry. Bill now lifts his trombone to his handsome round face and gets off, boy, and this crowd loves it. Now Louis Dixon lowers his sax to the floor takes his violin and saws the tune in several keys, while Quin Wilson beats the base viol. Wal ter Bishop bobs up and makes that the keys, Louis Dixon picks notes from individual strings on his banjo. This orchestra is no one man band; even with the Goo-la-picking King out, this orchestra is still out stand ing. Chas. Allen, Walter Fowler, Geo. Dixon, form a great cornet section. Lewis Taylor and Bill Franklni are experts at the trombones. Walter Bishop is excellent at the drums. And j the Swellegant sax section, base vio, banjo would move any feet. (I HEARD YES I HEARD, IT WASN’T TOLD TO ME I ONLY HEARD)—We can live on love, at least until we die of starvation. I suppose we’ll be happy until then. I saw lovers, lawyers, doctors, people from all walks of life. Here come several boys through the window, the first at the east end, un able to resist the alluring strains of music being played by the greatest pianist in the world, Papa Hines, i Ain’t it a shame? Aint it a shame? Earl Hines is playing his theme song, which means all, that’s all for today.

Book IRevtew “EMERSON'* ESSAYS” by Ralph Waldo Emerson (The National Home Library Found ation 1518 K St., N. W. Washington, D. C.) * * * This is the first volume of the hew Jacket Library that I have read, al though I have been favored with several of their books, .The Jacket Library is sponsored by the National Home Library Foundation, of Wash ington, D, C., and is creating quite a sensation because of their ability to market worthwhile volumes at the ridiculous low rate of fifteen gents each. * * * “Emerson’s Essays” is a 172 pa/gb' volume, approximately 4^>” by 6” ini size, with a celluseuede cover and consists of ten essays from the pen of the noted philosopher, all of which are well-known and include his view points on the subjects of; History Self-Reliance Compensation Spiritual Laws Love Friendship ♦ Prudence Heroism The Over-Soul, and Circles. * * * The various volumes listed in the Jacket Library include many well known works of literature and while I am not familiar with their selling policies there is undoubtedly an op portunity for our dealers in books and periodicals to transact consider able business in the sale of their volumes at the extremely low pop ular price of only 15c each. * * • j LINCOLN NEWS j (Loretta (Swannigan, Reporter) These beautiful fall days make one want to take* a trip into the country. Nothing is more beautiful right now than the sumac with its leaves of red and gold, the bitter-sweet clinging i from trees and bush an^ walnuts. A number of girls answering nature’s call, decided a walnut hike, so off they went, and enjoyed themselves im mensely. Lot of walnuts were gath ered and the girls also gathered lots of bitter-s-weet, climbing and running. Going through a wire fence, Mrs. i Huston left a good portion of her dress on the fence. Mrs. Maude John I son really looked stunning with a j gunnie sack of walnuts on her back | and can Mrs. Jennie Ewards jump? i Oh! why ask. No show could be bet j does do a little slipping now and then i and one must fall even if he does have a basket of walnuts in one hand. Is Mrs. Edna Page scared of worms? Oh! why ask. Na show could be bet ter than her trying to get away from a worm. And can Mrs. Alma Wiley shake the walnuts down? “Alto gether. No.” And can Mrs. Loretta Swannigan climb a steep bank, yes, even if she did get to the top and lose her balance and fall to the bottom Well as I was going to say the girls really had a wonderful time, but the next morning, the women were the most pitiful. Mrs. Swannigan anc Mrs. Page were hardly fit for service at the Federal Building, both being stiff and walking lame.

For personal reply send self-addressed, stamped envelope.) (The Literary Service Bureau) Maxie Miller: I am nineteen years old and go with a young man twenty i eight. He acts like he loves me but i when he gets around his other girl he ] doesn’t pay me any mind. He has been going with me three years. He doesn’t want to see me talking to no body else. Will you please give me all of your advice about it?—Mary Lou. Mary Lou: Well, Mary Lou, appar ently the boy friend does not care so much for you as he says. Contrary to your statement “He acts like he loves me” if he does not want to be bothered with you in public, then he does not love you. He should be proud of you. And then he is rather incon sistent, he wants to do anything he pleases, and yet does not want even to see you talking to anybody else. You would never be happy with such an inconsistent and jealous person. Forget him, get you a brand new boy friend, ft would not hurt if you got | several of them. No need getting i serious about love as young as you ! A - =n are. Plenty of time for marriage and all that it brings with it.—Maxie Mil ler.
