And medicine and cience, he

New Orleans
Teachers Get $364
Less Than Whites
Baton Rouge, La., Sept. 29 (A.
N.L.)—Negro public school teach
ers of New Orleans, better paid
than any others in the state, will
draw an average of $364 each less
than the white teachers for the
current scholastic year, the budget
of the New Orleans parish school
board reveals.
Colored teachers will draw an
average salary of $1,317 to $1,681
for the whites, and will get their
pay in 10 installments. The board
will spend a total of 2,825,748 for
salaries and teaching materials
for whites as compared with $680
880 for Negroes.

This is not a grand estate like
that in which Nancy was born in
England, and where she might
have lived long, if she had only
had “behaved.”
And around-about is the com
munity of Chapelle-Rennville with
buildings of stone and earth, fine
fields, lime trees, grass, and ap
parently friendly French folks.
The colored acquaintances whom
such a white person as Nancy is
likely to make at first are likely
to be people who will hurt her
more than she can help them. The
wrong sort rush forward early.
But at any rate, hurrah for this
rebellious Britisher. Long may she
wave!

The Larieuse Beauty Foundation was establishes by
% the Godetroy Manufacturing Company to study methods
■ » of preserving women's natural beauty, and to make
the results of this research available to the public.
“In the Spring a young man’s
fancy lightly turns to thoughts of
love.” And with Spring so def
nitely In the air these balmy days
aren’t you secretly pondering ways
nnd means to turn thnt Certain
young man’s thoughts to yourself?
And with competition being what It
Is, you have to make the most of
your possibilities to accomplish your
end.
While beauty Is not an absolute
.essential to romance, it Is certainly
a stepping stone, nnd with all the
modern methods of gilding the Illy
there Is no excuse for oeing detinlte
ly plain. Unruly eyebrows can be
put in line by a hit of expert tweez
Ing, lifeless cheeks nnd Ups can be
delicately tinted, tmd there are
numerous coiffures to suit your par
ticular demands. Colored polishes
draw attention to carefully mani
cured nnlls (he sure they are care
fully manicured before you risk
calling attention to then;). A faint
eye shadow at night will make your
eyes look larger and more lustrous.
A dash of perfume behind each ear
will add a mysterious aura to your
comings and goings—provided it Is
1 faint enough to be mysterious and
not so overpowering that It an
nounces your arrival before you get
In sight.
However, when going about this
program of self-improvement, re
member that moderation is the key
note of success. Beauty aids are
aids only to a certain point. No
man wants to be seen out with a i
girl whose lashes are heavily bead- j
ed with mascara, with eyelids so
shndowed she looks ns though site
were recovering from a severe ill
ness, rouge standing out in glaring
spots on her cheeks, and looking for
all the world like a walking cos
metic counter. Practice the art of
make-up in front of a well lighted
mirror. It Is really fun, and, once
you have acquired the knack, you
will be more than gratified by the
results.
You've got Spring in the con- J
spiracy with you—April showers.
May flowers, and all the rest. Jane
Is only two months off—and June, I
am told. Is the month of weddings,,
Let’s see what you can do!
What are your beauty prob
lems? Write Marie Downing,

JOHN TASKER HOWARD,
A.S.C.A.P., interpreter of current
trends in American musical culture,
occupies an outstanding position
among contemporary men ot music.
Author, composer,, pianist, lecturer,
radio speaker, he constantly reveals
a spirited nationalism born of pride
1n tile achievements of native
American musicians.
His zeal for historical accuracy
has made him a storm-center of
numerous controversies. It was his
personal effort that finally settled
the dispute over the’ birthplace of
Stephen Foster, and indicated the
restored musical shrine at Pitts
burgh as the building that really
cradled the great American com
poser. Similarly he dispelled the
myth of Foster's having written
“My Old Kentucky Home” in Bards
town, Kentucky.
His encyclopedic work, “Our
American Music,” and his biogra
phies of Stephen Foster and of
Ethelbert Nevin are permanent con
tributions to the library of Ameri
can standard literature. His musi
Val compositions include orchestral
[and choral music, organ and piano
(pieces, songs, the music for Percy
MacKaye’s folk-masque. “Wake
field," and many arrangements of
early American songs used In his
radio broadcasts and lectures.
Born November 30. 1890, In
Brooklyn, New York, grand nephew
of a namesake who founded Ply
> louth Church of Henry Ward
(Beecher fame. Howard first studied
■nualc with his mother. He left
‘Williams College after three and
one-half years, before he completed
work for his Bachelor’s degree. In
1937 the College conferred on him an
honorary degree of Master of Arts.
Brief experience hi commerce
convinced Howard that music was
his life work. He occupied editorial
posts with musical publications,
then began lecturing and radio
work, and the writing of books and
biographical pamphlets.
His "Our American Music” is a
standard reference work in schools
and colleges. His library in his
Glen Ridge, New Jersey, home is
rich wilh rare historical documents
bearing on the development of mu
sic in America.
Howard’s enthusiasm for modern’
music is stimulated by his associa-1
tions in the American Society of
Composers, Authors and Publishers,
of which he has been a member for
many years. More than one thou
sand creators of music are included,
in this organization, founded in'
1914 by Victor Herbert to protect]
the performing rights of its mem
bers' musical works.
Howard’s writing and radio broad
casts are prepared with meticulous
care. "Hard writing makes easy,
reading” is his motto. He has
found that for each minute on the
air. he spends an hour in prepara-'
tion.
Howard has five enthusiasms—he
lists his family first (he personally
teaches his daughter piano); then'
come contract bridge, golf, cross
word puzzles and his cocker spaniel,
"Tucky,” an abbreviation of “My
Old Kentucky Home.” But the driv
ing force of his life is his national
ism, his work for recognition of [
American composers.

SEWING PROJECT CLOSED
668 Women Discharged
DOUBT REOPENING
The WPA sewing center here em
ploying 668 women, many of them
colored, was closed at noon Fri
day. State WPA Chief Dwight
Felton at Lincoln notified E. F.
Margaret, county relief director
late Thursday that discharge slips
had been handed all the women on
thy project to become effective
Sept. 30, noon. Felton also noti
fied Margaret that WPA. would
immediately dismantle the mach
inery in the old M. E. Smith build
ing and move it else where about
the state by October 15th.
Margaret StDs “Chiselers”
Margaret, backed by a majority
of the county board has expressed
v. illingness to continue financing
the project if and when the county
is given some authority over cer
tification of women to it. He has
repeatedly charged it has been
loaded with “chiselers” and that
neither WPA. or the state will aid
in getting them off. State As
sistance Chief Vandemoer, in whose <
department this power now lies,
has promised certification to the
county on occasions, but Margar
et says it has never been forth,
coming.
STEELE SAYS ELKS
INDORSED DR. KING
New York, Sept. 29 (C)—The
Resolutions Committee of the re
sent Elks convention in Balitmore
through its chairman, J. Dalmus
Steele, calls attention to the inad
vertent omission of the name of
Rev. Lorenzo H. King, candidate
for Congress from New York from
the list of those persons running
for offices who had been endor
sed by the Elks.
Dr. King was given the enthu
siastic endorsement of the entire
body and after a ringing speech
by Roscoe Conkling Simmons,
which lasted an hour, Dr. King
was unanimously endorsed.
‘ We regret the omission of Dr.'
King’s name from published re
ports,’’ said Chairman Steele “and
v.'o are taking this means of cor-1
recting an erroneous impression 1
of the stand of the Elks.”
Part of the resolution offered
the goby names reads: whereas the ,
policy and practice of the Elks has
been to give endorsement to those [
ef our order who aspire to posi- |
tions of prominence in community
church, state and nation, be it re-,
solved that the following persons !
be given the wholehearted endorse- !
ment of this convention—-Dr. L. H. ‘
Q King, assistant Grand Oiaplain,
candidate for Congress from New
York.
In a statement to the press,
Candidate King said that the hop
ed Elks thruout the country would
know he was endorsed by the en
tire lodge and that they would do
all in their power to aid a Brother
I Elk.”
Members of the Resolutions
Committee were: J. Dalmus Steele
New York, chairman; Charles H.
Joell, New York; Claudie Keys,
Florida; Carey B. Wheaton, Vir
ginia; Dr. A. J. Whitehead, Ohio
H. Huseton, North Carolina; Ern
est J. Wright, Alabama, Dr. A. B.
