Read What Others Say
Mr C C Galloway,
Acting Editor,
Omaha Guide,
2418 Grant Street,
City
Dear Mr Galloway:
I am compelled to write you again
realizing you gave me an answer in
your paper in regards to the letter
that I wrote However, I was con_
acientious in my statements and shall
»ot reject them
There are times I believe you are a
dreamer; often going away in a deep
trance, and it is a long time before
you return You have wonderful
ideas, but I do not agree with you at
al. times; naturally that is to be ex_
pitted. Often it seems you have mis.
judged conditions and individuals. For
instance, some of the candidates
running for city commissioners that
you heartily indorsed would be 100%
loyal to their position and to all sup.
porters, many of them after accom.
pli-hing their aim have proven just
the opposite, and it seems have used
different voters as a means to an end.
One in your position must weigh and
learn to know different individuals
before having or asking a body of
people to sacrifice their rights for
•oppositions or promises that never
materialize.
Again in regards to the column
“Mis* Eyes'’, several members whom
H was stated in your paper indorsed
these writings have voluntarily come
to me making an altogether differ,
ent •*'*e»ent; some stating they did
not give same for publication I still
say when an editor allows a reporter
to write up such articles regarding
the domestic affairs of the public in
thi* manner or in a way that it is
hnmiliatmg, it is dangerous and will
hinder the circulation of a newspaper
in the long run.
I believe in recreation and a change,
and if “Miss Eyes” would confine her
writings to those things which would
bring a smile to those whom she has
reference it would be different, but
she does not do this Her articles only
humiliate and debase
Your paper in the last few weeks
has made several enemies There are
some who state they will not allow.it
to be brought into their homes It is

AN OPEN LETTER—
Many Judge Hortons
To the Editor:
The N Y Herald Tribune editor,
ial: “A Fresh Start for Justice” is
sound and timely. Judge Horton de_
served every commendation you gave
him.
It might be well to mention here j
that there are many Judge Hortons
in the South and they would be as ef_;
fective in actions if the opportunity j
came Between Negroes and whites i
of the South is a far fairer feeling
than is commonly believed, but in.
stances of this are kept hidden while!
the opposites are eagerly spread
abroad
There are conditions in the South;
in the administration of Justice, that
need changing The same can be
truthly said of all sections.
May we hope that we have come to
the place in this Scottsboro trial
where the state will take the attitude
of Judge Horton that it has not pre_
Rented evidence sufficient for convict,
ion and is unable to do so and there,
by absolve the boys of the serious
charge against them
Meantime there should be an j
awakening of the forces of righteous.!
ness to see that in such an occurence ■
as the Scottsboro affair it is not left
to communistic initiative to secure

"Miss
EYES"
Dear Miss Eyes:
I never took the Guide before until
I heard of your column. I think it’s
wonderful. These so called society
people need to be brought to light
All they do is sit in their homes and
lorate we working girls
Their daughters can do anything
and nothing said We can’t do one
half what they do without the whole
town talking of it Their boy friends
come to town, and stay right in their
homes, yet nothing is said But let
one of us who is not in society try
that Oh boy; certain girls can go to
after dance parties and stay until wee
hours in the morning with big shot
orchestra leaders If it was any one
beside Miss Society, the public would
have us coming from any place ex_
cept a party Would you try and tell
me why? When there is no differ,
ence Even if we do have to work for
our living, we can demand respect as
well as society girls. A Reader.

Miss Eyes thinks that big flapper
out on 28 Street is just about to run j
her graft in the ground gobbling up
checks from that poor old retired
man and carrying that poor old ex_
city employee up for his last dime
(His wife should take you in hand) :
and hustling off of that ofay is too
much for words.
* * *
Dear Miss Eyes:
I think you are wonderful. You
caused some of the things that you
have complained of to cease. I hope
you can stop some of these society j
women from running around with j
men of color here most especially our j
social elite

I wonder why grandpa doesn’t
bring his new bride out. Good work,
grandpa, you must have some effect
on women, that’s the third one Be
careful, don’t put her away like you
did the rest. Interested

Why is it the widower doesn’t visit
on a certain street north of Lake so
much ? Does “Miss Eyes” know ?
What did “Miss Eyes”, do break up
the little play house.

A certain junior church worker has
stopped running around so much. The
old lady has answered her calling, j
Bravo! old top, if you can keep the
old man out of pools halls you will
have won your highest award. Inter,
ested.
* * *
A certain inspector and his buddie
had better be careful where they
park their cars. “Miss Eyes” saw
them go into a certain house where
there were too many good looking
gals, and they did not come out any
too quick either Careful “old in.
speck” the old lady might shoot you
all up
* * *
“Miss Eyes” is wondering just
what has happened to the red hot
family of years ago upon the hill
where there used to be so much and
many big feasts and big cars and ev_
erything Its too bad you had, but
you should have saved for a rainy
day Remember mamas and papas
you might not always be able to take
care of children like you bring ’em up
so go easy with them from the start.

“Miss Eyes” has to give that young
lady who is visiting her credit for
being able to lead a certain shoeman
around by her apron string “Miss

AN AXE TO GRIND
by R. A. ADAMS
(For the Literary Service Bureau)
Beware the cunning flatterer;
Observing, you will find
Beneath each subtile camouflage,
He has “an axe to grind.”
Beware the cringing syncophant,
When he has grinned and whined,
For, spite of his submission feigned,
“He has an ax to grind!”
r
Beware the bitter enemy
That suddenly turns kind;
Just reason he's a hypocrite
And “has an ax to grind!”
I Of all such creatures be aware
f
And ever bear in mind,
That ten to one, the flatterer
Has brought “his ax to grind.”
DIVING PONIES
AS GRANDSTAND
ENTERTAINMENT
_
Picchiani Troupe Of Acrobats
Appear at Nebraska
Fair
Grandstand visitors at the Ne
braska State Fair will be enter
tained each afternoon and evening,
except Sunday, with a thrilling ex
hibition of Diving Horses, when
Smith’s Diving Ponies will leap
from a 30-foot platform into a
tank of water less than 8 feet deep
Another outstanding feature of
the grandstand program include?
the Picchiani Troupe of Acrobats,
known as the Acrobatic Cyclones.
Their act will include teeter-board
leaping, aerial somersaults and
dare-devil aerial feats. This is the
only company which has perfected
the four-high somersault, and visi
ters will hold their breaths while
this daring performance is going
on.
The Gold Dust Twins, funny
faced black comedians, who used
to broadcast over KYW, will bring
laughs galore to the tickled audi
ence. They will do a singing and
dancing stunt, and a boxing bout
that will keep the grandstand
rocking with mirth.
HUTTEN 2nd IN CLOSE MATCH
HARVEY AVANT WINS 2nd
FLIGHT
Playing steadily and nursing a
small lead for the last five holes,
Charlie Howard, the mammoth form
er athlete of Drake University, and
now assistant City Attorney of Des ■
Moines, re.asserted his right to hold
the Central States Golf Association
Trophy for another year After a last
round nip and tuck tussel with Jess
Hut'ten, the Omaha sharp shooter,
Howard came out on top with a two
stroke advantage, shooting 80.77 for
a total of 157 for 36 holes to Hutten’s j
79, 80, 159
George McLain, Kansas City, was
third with 160, Sam Shepherd, St
Louis 4th with 161 and Jim Murray,
Minneapolis, 5th with 162
Harvey Avant, Omaha, won second
flight trophy posting an 84_95 for'
179. Bill Davis took the runner up
prize with Dr Lon Tillman, Kansas;
City, Saybert Hanger, Herb Lewis,
and J D Crawford, Omaha follow,
ing Completion of the first 18 holes |
found Jim Murray, the middle aged
golfer, from Minneapolis with a round
of 79 with Hutten, Howard, and
Shepherd following close on his heels.
Murray’s glory was short lived, how_ ;
ever, for on the third hole of the
second round he blew all chances of
winning by taking an eight After
this Howard and Hutten settled down
to waging a personal duel that has \
seldom been seen in C. S A , play. 1
Hutten hung on doggedly trying to
reduce a lead that never exceed,
ed two strokes and most of the time
was a margin of one Until the 17th
hole, where his last chance to cut
Howard’s lead presented itself; his
drive nestled in a clump of bushes
Disheartened by this piece of hard
luck he played his next short of the
green after taking another approach
shot that put him on the green in 5
to barrel a long putt for a six to
Howard’s 5 That practically cinched
the match for Howard Us the short
18 was halved in fours and he main.
tained his two stroke advantage
Hutten’s play was courageous
against odds that were recognized in
Howard’s long wood shots and his
experience Although he muffled
several chances to square up the
match, his play showed that he has a
good fighting heart that should carry
him to many golf victories in the
future
Sam Shepherd and George McLain
ran true to form and ware among
the leaders at all times Gabby Wat_
son, Penny Murray, and Chet Hodges
found the going too hot and flound_
ered John Pegg withdrew because of
illness
In the second flight the Omaha
players had all of the say and Harvey
Avant, the elongated wizard was the
man of the hour when he came
through to win this flight Dr Lon
Tillman was the only invader that
had a chance, but was outdistanced
by Bill Davis, the winner of the run
ner up position.
2 POSE AS FEDERALS AND ROB
MAN OF $98
Two armed men, posing as federal
agents, forced their way into a resi_
dence at 520 North 15th St. about 1
a. m. Saturday and compelled Wil_

took a small sum of money from Josie
