JSook IRcview “GEORGIA NIGGER” (By John L. Spivak) (Brewer, Warren & Putnam. New York City) This book ha3 recently been highly publicised in both the white and the colored press. Having a natural an tipathy toward the word, “Nigger” in ’ any form, I felt that the book would be very indifferently received by me. especially after reading. • • • To my surprise, “Georgia Nigger”, is the best book I have yet read, writ ten by a white author, that serves as an expose of the almost unbelievable renditions under which a large pro portion of our race manage to exist, not only in Georgia, bet the entire v southland. • * * The story itself is written in the form of a novel but for its accurate portrayal of true conditions it might just as well have been written in a matter of fact form, giving names, dates and places, because the condi- ‘ Cions, especially concerning the share croppers, petty law-violators and chain gangs, are minutely described and in just such a manner as I have observed with my own eyes while in the southland, especially in the rural districts. • • • To add authoriativeness to the author’s work and to anticipate any claims of exaggeration, Mr. Spivak. has profusely illustrated his book with actual photographic scenes clearly de scribing the many inhuman methods of torture and cruelty that are yet in existence in the southland. Despite its name. “Georgia Nigger." will react favorably for humanity, and the race. Clifford C. Mitchell. | Everybody’s going Where?

SOME WIVES AND OTHERS by Mr. “X” Discouraging the Children (Next Week—“These Husbands of Ours” by Madame “X”) (The Literary Service Borea) A husband charged that his wife discouraged the children by saying, in anger, “There’s nothing to you; you never will make anything; there’s nothing in you; and no use to try to make anything out of you; you are just like your good-for-nothing dad dy!” No doubt such talk will have a psychological effect; it will discour age and destroy the stimulant needed to make the big Tight for a higher place in life. If they believe in her. i edity. and tf they believe the mother’s appraisment of their own father, that fact will discourage them, and it will make them weak in confidence in themselves and in their ability to win in the struggles of life. Better tell the children they can, and encourage them to utilize their opportunities for advancement. • SCOTTSBORO MOTHER ILL IN BERLIN FACES OPERATION Berlin.
