and you can name your own
BENEFICIARY. Your friend
can’t hope to profit from your

who will capture your heart
eiAemight.
55. B.—My husband is very cross
and fussy sometimes. Sometimes I
wish I had never seen him. He
fusses about most everything.
I am always buying him some
thing but it seems as if he for
gets a favor as soon as it is done.
Should I leave him or continue
to stay with him?
Ans: You wouldn’t be happy
if you left him. I know he’s a
min sometimes, but he truly
loves you. You will be closer
together by certain events to
happen a little later in life.
To leave now. would be a mis
take I believe.

Listed by EDITOR A PUBLISHER
Philadelphia
It seems 1° us that the City of
Philadelphia 'has set a very fine
example for tho participation of
Negroes in the fruits of charity
drives. First, it is noted that mem
bers of the group are included in
tho official personnel; and aeccnd,
it is nobej that the funds are dis
tributed with a fair degree of ac
curacy between racial groups in
proportion to the population served.
Mr. G. Fleming, a colored member'
tf the publicity staff of the United
Campaign, the agency which raises
the money, reports:
“With the mono, ‘Give till it
helps,’ all Philadelphia joined this
week in laying plans for the annual
United Campaign which provides
funds for 141 hospitals, settlement
houses and other welfare agenc:es.
TSvch e of these are operated speci
fically in Negro communities, but
Negroes benefit, as well, from all
the citywide services .
“While Negroes are integrated
jin the top management of the cam
paign, a Cooperative Committee
Nas undertaken the responsibility
of ‘putting over’ the effort among
Negroes. This committee is head
by that busy college president, Dr.
t-esliu Pinckney Hill, who is so
>ften drafted for civic programs
all over the country Dr, Hill is
\ member of the board of directors
of The Community Fund of Phil
adelphia and Vicinity, and thus
shares in the all-year making of
policies; E. V^uishngton Rhodes,
newspaper publisher, is a member
of the central publicity committee,
while Dr. Dellaven Hinkson, of
Mercy Hospital, is a member of
tho central speakers bureau.
“The goal of the campaign is
this year $4,000,000, and the cam
paign will last during the entire
month of March. With it success
ful the twelve institutions managed
by Negroes will be kept open.
“Drawing no lines of race, creed
or color, the figures show that of
tho funds collected by the United
Campaign, bhe per capita expendi
ture on Negroes last year was
$1.92, while for whites it was $1.62.
Tho total spent on the city’s 2f>5,
000 Negroes is conservatively es
timated at $489,740, while on the
1,744,600 whites $2,822,760 was
spent
"The nme agencies and threo
branches devoted primarily to wel
fare work within the race, received
$113,185 from the United Cam
paign last year. Forty-four other
agencies, with Negroes comprising
more than 5 per eent of clients, re
ceived $376,544.
In addition there are a large
number of agencies, giving com
munity-wide service in such mat
ters as health education, coordina
tion of activities and legislation,
all of which services are available
to everybody.”
The nickname, “City of Brotherly
Love*” is no misnomer for Phila
delphia, at least where charity is
concerned.
Adventurous Spirit
It is our hope that t.h« multipli
city of government agencies which
lave as their objective the succor
ing of he needy will not kill the
adventurous spirit of the Negro.
It is from such a spirit that out
standing successes will come in
the future. Nothing distinctive,
creative, and independent can come
cut of a condition of dependency
That is one reason why we develop
ed so few men and women of stam
inia during the period of slavery
We were dtspendent upon others
for our bread and keep. Nowadays
it is taking another form-relief. It
is coming to ba the height of the
ambition of some of our younger
people to get cn relief. Some of
item very openly avoid the hard
roa'1 of init alive, enterprise, and
irvt. ltigemt »iclA>n.i They fd'gLft
about John Merrick and A. F.
Horndon who, while barbering for
whito people, founded the North
Carolina Mutual and Atlanta Lifu
Insurance companies, now worth
p, total of $8,000,000, employing
ihundreds of well trained young
people, and giving hope and inspir
ation not to mention protection, to
the group. Or Major R. R. Wright,
St., who was born a slave and who
vividly remembers slavery, but who
carved a distinguished career as
an educator, and who, after he was
60 yearg old, founded a bank in
Philadelphia which has assets of
moro than $700,000, and of which
he is still the active prosident, al
though he is past 80.
Some of the pioneer days may
, be over, but the day of triumph
of brain power is not past; and
iS will never pass. The day of ex
cuse} and reasons why we cannot
do aro upon us; but these are the
conditions out of which real lead
ers must spring, and twenty years
from now will tell us whether or
not in this period we were building
securely and living progressively,
or slowly succumbing to panaceas
which led to dryrot and a lower (
status in our fast-moving civiliza
tion.

Way8 of Describing It
There is more than one way to
say anything. For instance, a Har
vard professor who saw the con
test from the front row and the
fighter who won.
First, the pug’s version. “I see
he’s a sucker for a right; so I steps
upon mo toes, and land one on his
pan. I flattens his schnoz and he
goes down for th« good old fash
ioned K. O. He's a„ cold as a fro
zen fish. I cops the dukes!
The Professor’s acount: The
challenging pugilist, analysing his
opponent’s lack of powers forth
with elevated himself on his pedial
ciegits, and smote the unfortunate
quite vociferously on the phsiog
nomy, w'ho in a stupor, had to
borne fro rnthe arena. Mr. Palooka
then emerged dominant.”
