Ans; She doesn’t love you but
neither does she mean you any

separation from his wife was na

A. L. Allen, Fisk gradtato and
formerly assistant in the' chemistry
department of this institution, in
itiated efforts in this field of en
deavor. Notwithstanding dicour
aging letters, received from many
jewelry firms, he continued to
make contacts with sales managers
of nationally known jewelry organ
izations until Metal Arts company
took his proposition into consider
ation.
Mr. Allen was employed by Me
tal Arts, which has had 26 years of
experience in the business, to work
I ho schools of Tennessee, North
Alabama, and Arkansas. Out of all
the schools of Tennessee, Mr. Al
len served 90 per cent, with satis
faction to both the s hools and Me
Lai Arts. Among the schools served
by (him wore Fisk, Meharry, Lane,

various spools Mr. Allen visited
gave him s, lord'd cooperation, and
in so doing, they not only indicat
ed their appreciation of Metal Arts’
appointing a Negro salesman, but
their enthusiasm over the. quality
of his line of good? which in many
respects were superior to bhnt of
other firms employing only white,
salesmen.
This past spring, Mr, Allen was
promoted to the position of district
manager for tho coming year. This
appointment made possible more
jobs for college men. Metal Arts
company prides itself in this ven
ture, and at present has selected
fivo other Negro college men a?
salesmen, paying them salaries as
well as commission.
Tho new appointments to the
sales force include Lonnie Briscoe,
Booker T. Washington high school

Memphis; Mr. Briscoe is the son of
the Rev. Frank Briscoe. Paul Gore,
graduate of A. and I. State college,
Nashville, brother of Dean J. W.
Gore of A. and I. State, is another
