The Best Quality Foods At The Very Lowest Prices WE DELIVER PROVERBS AND PARABLES By A B Mann (For The Literary Service Bureau) “You Can’t Eat Your Cake and Keep It Too.” It is not uncommon to hear a child cry “Where’s my cake?” Common al so, is the reply, “You ate it.” From this comes the axiom, “You can’t eat • lr cake and keep it too.” The les son is one of moderation in the use of what we have and a caution against waste of what we have. It is true in regard to money, time, physical strength. One cannot use these with excess, with prodigality and at the same time conserve them for future use. So it is wiser to stretch them out and profit thereby. The “prodigal son” wasted all in riotous living, then MRS. RANDLE.

SIX DIE FROM EATING ROTTEN SALVATION ARMY FOOD (Special to the CNA) New York—At least six Negro transients have been taken out of the Salvation Army station at 224 W. 124th Street, seriously ill on account of the food. They were carried to the Harlem Hospital. All of them are re ported dead. About 450 youth live there and the station feeds from 500 to 700 every day. The meals consist of rotten beef and yellow, decayed substances which smell like garbage. The workers who stay at the station claim that the food is directly responsible for the fatal illness of the six transient work ers. They state that the food “isn’t fit for a pig”. Food Like Garbage Besides serving rotten food to the workers, all those who work in the kitchen make 45c a week. Other workers who are sent to Staten Island to do hard labor under the worst con ditions are paid two dollars a week. The Salvation Army officials at tempted to divide the kitchen help, who are themselves underpaid, from those who eat in the breadline. At ev ery possible opportunity the officials incite fights between these two groups. ARKANSAS COURT UPHOLDS LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO EVICT SHARE-CROPPERS Little Rock, Ark. — (CNA)—The State Supreme Court held last Mon day that landlords here had a right to evict Negro and white share-crop pers and under the law the latter could do nothing about it. Ten sharecroppers sued H. Nor cross, white, a landlord, charging evic tions in violation of the acreage re duction acts of the Roosevelt A.A.A. The court held that the contracts cov ering the arrangement were be tween the landlord and the federal government and that the sharecrop per was a “free agent” who had noth ing to do with them. The court declared that the share croppers had “no obligation to remain upon the farm . . . and are left free to stay or go as they choose.” The effect of the decision is to leg alize the landlord system of evicting and starving the Negro and white sharecroppers in this territory.
