DOINGS AMONG THE DiN N’G CAR AND HOTEI. WAITERS B YHOPE Well, here I am again, bringing you the right side of the wait* h’s life. Glad to say that all this week’s news should be very interesting. The boys -have been up and going. So here is a short hand sketch of it Get ti* -: Last week t stood 107 and the head waiter at the Field Club gav a waiter a party of four. On j the menu they had a snowflake salad with th lunch, with an apic flaked pineapple, bits of marshmallows and a dash of whipped uream. The waiter caiTied his four salads n with th soup and when the main course came in. the head waitr asked wherg are the salads ? When they looked where the salads were. th(1 platgh were floating about on the tray. Can you see Mr. Thomas’ face as he look ed at this waiter? Look Golfe’n;: The Central States Tournament will be held in Des Moines, la., on the 2nd Sunday in August. Mr. Hodges and several members of the Swatika Club plan to make the trip and bring back some of the laurals of the meet. Hgpg is a swell chance for you Colored golf ers to join this club, and keep up with the latest sport. Mr. Howard went on a fishing trip last Mbnday, and boy, he sure got the fish. Can’t tell how many he icaught, but they tell me he was wish wig for an old fashoned fish fry. Oh boy. Well Harlam is still going over big. I saw from a head waiter down tr a bus boy blowing forms during |k«M bot days, but the colored busi ness man hasn’t yet learned that saying that one of our oil firms uses “Business is good. Thank you.” In stad they were singing, “Closg thg doo-, these Negrogs will drink all night.” We wish to thank the City Com missioner for granting everyong who had a car and all that it requires to drive it during the stret car strikg, to run a jitney. It was indeed a swell move and greatly hglped thg working people to get to and from their work. I am going to ask a Committee of my peoplg to assist mg if this shoud happn again, in asking the City Offiuers to set asidg an oil station where the jitney can buy gas and oil, so as to safeguard the peo pie. Now this is why I say this: On last Friday Mr. J. Overton, a writer put his car in jitney service. This being his day off he planned to help to help the city’s cause. Selcting thg Paxton to start as “charity begins at home,” he was on the dot to give aid to the maids. He drifted down stair to wait the time and ,-an into a social meeting, by doing so, he so cialized too heavy, and when the maids got in his jitney, there was no gas and no cash to buy it with. Will you ask me? Here’s News: Up at Lake Okoboji, the city's cause. Selecting the thy are going to let the waiters have the hall for a dance on the 15th of August. It seems to be an annual affair, and L. Draper, J. Callaway, Roy West, G. McGee, O Kerr and J- Malory plan to motor up and enjoy this special event. Hope Mr. West enjoys this one, as his long trip seemed as if it had fall en through. Hope you have a swell time, pals. Listen Here: .T. Mallory seems to hav a sore spot for Mr. Draper about some pool games. On last Wednes day, he chose Mr. Draper, and be lieve me, he gavg Mr. Drapgr a rgal game. Mr. Draper was . leading when I left, but I was told the next day that Mr. Price was really the winner and hope that this pool fued lusts for a long time. I see that Mr. Branch still feels that everything should be wherg it belongs. Last week Mr. Draper, a waiter by trade, but at the presnt time, relief man at the Paxton, whosg duties are to relievg doormgn, port ers and housemen- On Wedngsday, he happened to be on duty as portgr in thg lobby, and feeing that he is S ip w. iter, he went in the Dinning Room to gt something and he was ordered out in a very rough tone of voice by Mr. Branch. Mr. Draper obeyed orders, but felt that Mr. Branch may get in a pinch, and need his service some day. His voice may not be like a lady’s with his reply insert oil Page 8 col. 5) ST.

SPEAKING OF VACATION BY PAUL JAY Speaking of vacations. Here’s an other idea to hip you apprciate a lit tie more the time allotied to you when you don't hav to report for work. Prhaps you might have heard me m" mention T knew there w«« about as mlch chance of my vacationing in the Roukies or any other place for that matter byond th limits of my na tive city as there was of my taking passage for Europe. It was hard luck all right with the thermometer registering close around a hundred evry day and me not being able to think of anything but the swll fish ing dip I had last yar, but, I just had to 'make the best of it. I was too big to cry and too little to laugh 3 o.ri it. I decided I’d get evn with .'A any way. IIwv? Listen. I’m sure most of you have had the same experigncg I hav in being awakened by the thrll, raspng sound of your alarm clock ( which scowled at v;u c< ntemptibly as id-rough it would like to tell yol you v\ .• a lezy .vri.tch v. ho’d rather sleep than ok. Yvh> v.ouldn’t in this hot weather? Well here’s the opening segng of my vauation dglur. I set my alarm clock the first night as usual, though with a secret satisfaction the faith ful old tmepice knew notiing about. Whn it started off the nxt morning at six I drw one long :igh of content r. tnt. Whn it kept oi with its insds tent clamor I grinned with malicious glee, an'1, wheln at last it broke into one long wild outburst I lalghed so hai-d my wife told me to stop or I’d wake the whole neighborhood. I obey d. Thre wa n’t any use in playing any attention to that cantankerous old clock ithat’s like a lot of folks we all know v ho are always urging us to do something disagreeable and then act ing proud and dsgasted like if we don’t the only thing to do with clocks and people who don’t see things the way you do is to forget them. Fun ny isn’t it how many there are that have no sense of humor? It’s too bad I guess, but it can’t be helped. I knew' I couldn’t change conditions any so I closed my eyes and sank my head still deeper into my pillow. Did you ever think what e. good friend your pillow is and how shamefllly you abuse it? You twist it and turn i!t and pound it and poke it. Sometimes it's too hard and i again, its too salft. By turns it’s too ' hot and too cold but no matter how you treat it, it’s always ready to try as best t can to make you more com fortabl, to ase your pain, to lighten your care. Someday they’ll build a monumnt to man’s truest friend. It won’t b a dog either. It’ll be a pil low Oh, you say you’re running on wldly. Guess you’re right. Well, before I got sidtracked, I was trying to tell you what a grand and glorious feling I was xpei'iencing as I lay peacefully in my bed, realizing that I didn’t have to rush around like a fireman answemg a third alarm. You ask me wihy I didn’t follow Harry Lauder’s advice and have my breakfast in bd. Oh, I didn’t want anything to eat. I jlst wanted to sleep and sleep, so I ulosed my gvgs, boarded the dreamland and soon was sailng away through the fleecy clouds on an airplane all trmmed with gold and gistning with diamonds. I was having suemh a good time that I’d forgotton my disappontment in not being able to go away iike lots of other folks did when I sat up sort o’ bwildered, like, rubbd my eyes, ran my fingrs through my hair and listen ed. The twelve o’clock whistle was blowing, shrieking, screeching, mak ing a worpe noise than that old alarm clock ever had. I couldn’t stop them. And I was getting more and more wide awake every minute. Whgn j th whistles stopped, the bells began to ring. Why do folks invnt all these noise makers? Why a fellow just can’t sleep at all. I gave up. There wasn’t any use tryin io sleep in all this rackt so I just lay thinking of all the thinks I I was going to do while I was at home. I’d been kept so blsy th last fw years making new friends that I’d lost track of a lot of my old ones and I deuided right then and there wg were going to have a reunion. Well, eventually, we had it, and if you don’t think w had a fine time, try one of these litrtl affairs yourslf and see is I’m mistaken. What a splndid idea that picnic for the old colored people at Elmwood was the other day. For a whole year those aged people will dram of th happinss of that one day and long for the time a year hence whgn they will again assemble on a like occas sion. While we are enjoying our own vacations, isn^t it a consoilng thought to think that we have helped to bring into th lives of others a lit tie of the happinss we ourselvgs gn_ joy. Pleasure divided is multiplied a hundrd fold. Here’s my last vacation hint. Have you ever fully realized thg pos j sibilities for a thoroughly god time right here at home? It always seems a little strange to me that folks are willing to spend money and travel long distances to enjoy many of the same pleasures that we have j so near at hand. Hre are a few of the plaos I would like to have you see during your stay at home vauation. If you are fortu nate enough to own a car take a trip to Bllevue, the historical old town built on f,he banks of the Missouri. From there it’s but a short distance to Fort Crook. On your way home , top at Mandan Park, that delightful pcnic spot whre the young find ro rnance and the old deep contentmnt in the silent woods and the craggy heights. Theree are so many placs all around us where one may fish, swim and pic nic. If you like motoring, drive along th river road, where tall trees interlace their branuhes and cast deep shadows upon th winding road beneath. As a flitting close to your vacation, seek out the hills of Florence. As you journey homward stop your car on the brow of a hill that commands a view of the river. If you are in luck there will be moonlight, silvering the river, the ■woodland and the long i white 1-oad that stretches before you. We’re just a little cty, so the New Yorkers tell us, awawy out here on : the Nebraska prairies but what of it? There’s beauty a’plenty all round i about us if we only seek it out. f OLD AGE PENSION ! Omaha, July 24—To the Editor of ' The World Herald: It is with deep i interest and a hopeful prayer in my heart that I view the work and plans that are being formulated for an old age pension In some 17 states great activity is felt and many are the workers and i advocates of the Dr. Townsend old age revolvng penson Even our neighbor state, Iowa, ha petitions out which will be presented to congress when they next convene ft seems to me after giving though! and analyzing the various plans, the I Townsend plan is the most accep table. By th way the man who formulates these plans was actuated by seeing [ first hand the misery and ill health caused by worry of “What will I do ; now that I am old?" This in short is the Townsend plan: The old age pension fund will be made possible b.v putting through s ! government sales tax. At the age of 60 a person must retire,, thereby giving new .positions for the younger man or woman. A man or woman must be free from a criminal record to be eligible to a ! pension—this will encourage upright living ..This plar gives each individual two hundred dcllars a month which must be spent witin that month in this country; cannot be invested or saved —just think of the new buying pow er that will be created—-new auto- 1 mebilles—new radios—new homes— i hew clothes and possibly many things that were not possible to mention, j Please remember that everything car ries a sales tax. It will save communities the burden ' of institutions that are now kept up by taxation, it will make for a hap- I pier, healthier nation. GAIL BROWNLEE SAYS TAX ’EM AND SPEND IT Omaha, July 22—To the Editor of j The World-Hearld: We are wonder J ing if the letter written by M. J Welch July 10 about Dr. Townsend’s “old age pension” plan, and saying that people over 60 years of age could not spend two hundred dollars a month pension, and that $1 a day was enough, was meant as an insult to the pensioners or was written to « provoke an argument Before win- ] ter is half over a half million more i i people in the drouth stricken area ■ will be on direct relief, and if some 1 T'ermanent plan can be put in opera tion to stimulate business, work can i be provided for the young who are' ■willing and able tjo ^wotrl:. There j seems to be no place for people 60 years of age and over, so better let : the government hire them at good i wages to spend two hundred dollars : a month for the people, instead of giving them $1 a day to starve on, and not he any help on the recovery t- buy fo ul. I-ft.’s b ivf* enough to H;>n. Onn dollar a day will barely buy fuel, light, homes, autos: radios; clothes and keep all the factories and workmen busy. One and one-half to two billion I dollars a month of money spent in . stead of being hoarded will make a i real prosperity for everyone in this country, bsides taking away the fear of poverty and starvation, which i is now one of our great stumbling blocks to a permanent recovery. There must be something lacking in our economic life that creates po vertv in this land of plenty and leaves90 per cent of the people past 60 a burden on society- The two hundred dollars a month pension | must be spent, not hoarded, even if j you have to hire someone to help j spend it. There is plenty of money ! today, but it is idle and there is no j safe and protable place to use it, nor will there be a place as long as you have so many people with no chance j to get this money to spend. Nearly j every family will be benfited eitther | directly os indirctly by the spending | of this pension money. The money can be raised by a sales tax; which will be easily paid; for all the young people will be at work at good wages and who cares about taxes if you earn money with which to pay them? L. GRANT I HIS PLATFORM JOHN F. ROHN, DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR In filing as a Democratic candidate for the nomination of Governor, I am yielding partly to my desire to serve the people of my State in that capacity, and partly to the earnest solicitation of progressive leaders in both political -oiuap oqj hi Xquioedse axe jnq ‘soij.ted cratic Party. I believe that the views on public questions of many candidates for high office are very little known to the vot * s of the state. I, therefore believe it proper and desirable that I should an nounce some program or platform set milt oua mv own views, recognizing at the same time that a candidate is also | !*°und in a large measure by platform j which has not yet been adopted and will not be adopted until the State Conven tion after the primaries on August 14th Briefly my program or platform is as (Continued on Page 8) x ST.

His subject for the morning was: “The Secret of Strength,” and for the EVENING service. “The Coming Kingdom.” There WERE many good thoughts brought out in both sermons.

EI DER HUNLEY brought a good MESSAGE at 11 a. m. and the pastO}. filled his own pulpit in the EVENING. The newly organized choir made THE music. BROTHER !

Our pastor will leave next work for Jackson, Mississippi to ATTEND the Annual Convention, if the Lord Blesses the efforts that ARE being putforth by THE members and friends. SOCIAL SINS (USURY) By Dr A G Bearer (For The Literary Service Bureau) Text: He that putteth not out his money to usury—Psalms 15:5. As graft is unlawful or excessive profit so usury is unlawful interest. 1. It Is Inequitable. Inequity means unfairness unequal consider.a tion. Surely it is not a square deal when one takes advantage of the circumstances of another and extorts what is not due from. him. 2. It Destroys Confidence. Known to be unfair a person will lose the confidence of their fellows and will be hindered thereby. 3. It Will Bring Retribution. Applicable here is the declaration “Whatsoever a man soweth that shall be reap.” 4. Regret and Remorse Must Come Sometime. With everybody conscience will get an innng some time then regret and remorse will follow perhaps when it will be too late to make amends. Yes usury is a social sin.

Daisy Wead president Inez Battles secretary “Self Preservation First”? Bv R A ADAMS (For The Literary Service Bureau) “Self preservation” may be first, With those who are of selfish breeds. But by the altruistic soul First place is given to other’s needs. “Self preservation” is the cry Of those who live for self alone; But all who'd live the life worth while Must more exalted standard own. “Self preservation first” means this: It matters not how others fare I’ll satisfy my own desires Nor bounty with my fellows’ share. “Self preservation first?” Ah. no! Those who for good contribute most Amid this age of heartlessness Of self denial well may boasit. HUMAN EQUALITY By R A ADAMS (For The Literary Service Bureau) The declaration that “AH men are freated equal" has been variously inter >reted. But there are two peoiods in luman life when equality Is undermi ible. They are the hepinninjr of life and ■he end of life. No matter what may be his lineage >r his material circumstances every iuman being comes into the world i vaked, dependent. helpless. He, squires the most exacting attention ind both his physical and mental levelopment are slow. In this respect ill men are equal. Then comes death a thing never understood. The period of human cngevity may be extended by means science and the proper care. But ieath is inevitable. As all come into ;he world naked so all go out naked.
