PRE-EASTER PARADE
Spring Cleaning Easy with
NEW ELECTRIC CLEANER
• There's a new helper in this year's spring
cleaning parade!.. the new Electric Cleaner
—an economical, efficient, housecleaning
servant.
Besides helping with the rugs, upholstery
and mattresses—the new Electric Cleaner is
valuable for getting the loose dirt irom aver
the doors and hard-to-get-at corners. And
those are the places that make houseclean*
ing a drudgery—that are likely to be the
cause of backaches and sore muscles such
as you remember from other years.
Make a change this year! It's easy to own a
new Electric Cleaner—and it costs so little
to operate because electric service is so
cheap in Omaha

F .- day wear, the newest trick in
millinery appears to be the tinv
hat with plenty of color including
p. colorful- veil that finds its way
under the chin.
Romrost in the minds of these
women is fear of criticism by hus
binjs, children, relations, and even
their friends. They have an abnor
mal fear of being “talked about.”
If I were you I would turn this
fear of criticism into « desire for
praise. I'il tell them that the day
of “Whistler Mothers” went out
with the bonnet and the horse car.
To<lay children and grand-children
take pride in a mother who looks
no more than her age and who is
becomingly and naturally groomed
to make her children and her hus
band proud of her looks is the sec
ret goal of evqry mother.
The fashion argument its often
as successful with alder women as
with younger ones. Often they are
more fashion conscious but are
afraid to express it. They want to
“grow old gracefully” and welcome
the aid that this type of beauty ser
vice gives. The comfort of short
haid does not need to be angued.
It is evident.

Make up if correctly applied in- !
proves any individual's personal j
appearance.
A make up does not necessarily
mean rouge (lipstick, eye make up |
and powder but might be a com- 1
bination of any two or three.
A make up is applied correctly |
it does not look artificial. A make
up should lock au if its one of
your natural inheritance of Beauty.
The length width and shape of
tho face determine* the balance
of our make up. A small face
does not require as much rouge as
r. larger face with larger eheeeks.
Thu hair dress is also a determing
feature.
The color of lipstick and powder
to be used is determined by the
amount of pigment of the skin. The
tips of the ears and palms of the
hands are factors for choosing
make up.

THIS WEEK
: IN RELIGION & THOUGHT
by ROBERT L. MOODY
“Abusing the Spirituals”—
The "Pittsburgh Courrier” many
race leaders are crying aloud a
gainst the irreverent ure of the N e
gro Spirituals and Melodies The
writer and one of our pastors were
walking past a beer tavern in
South Omaha on West “L” St., and
as we did so we heard that anti
cipation—“When the Saints Go
Marching On.” Being played to
swing tr.ne and these revellers
were enjoying it.
It appears that the present gen
eiation of Negroes are soon for
geting the price that our grand
and great-grandfathers paid for
freedom and the beauty and great
iaith and hope that cornea forth in
these f-p'rituals.
The very words that we pray
in cur “National Negro Anthem”
arc being forgotten. We sing in
tho last stanza “Lest our feet
stray from the places our God
where we met thee: Lest our hearts
drunk with the wine of the. world,
we forget thee”
Our parents who have gone on to
be with their makers would very
likely use the words of Longfel
low’s “Father Felican:
“What is thiu that ye do my
children ?
What madness hath seized you?”
Our protest is weakned because
many of the natrons to the abohn- !
inable taverns and dens, are pro- j
teased Christians or "church mem
1 -rsf\ These are a disgrace to God
and Christian fait hand church. If i
they would stop supporting these ;
places' then the honest hearted sin- j
nets \<ould respect these songs ofi
our race which were-.bought;..in.
iblood and donage.
