NNIW GOAL OF $20,000,00t
INSURANCE REAGHEO
REPORTED
Durham, N. C. June 22 (ANP)
—Although all reports from Na
tional Negro Insurance week
(May 8-13) are not yet in, and
no official statement of figures
is available, it is reliably reports
ed that advance indications that
the goal $£0,000,000 of life in
sura nc? written by Negro manag
ed companies during Insurance
week has ’been reacCied.
Speaking of the national essay

ance We k committee, G. W. Cox,

olina Mutual Life, said this week.

RANDOL
PRODUCTION NEWS
By Frederick A. Buford
r hi
Hollywood, California—Motion
picture moguls from all indepen
dent and many of the i:najor stu
dios are agog over the success
George Randol had with his first
all colored cast film which was
completed in record time here last
week. Inquiries have literally
flooded the office and Randol is
being hailed as the man of the
hour.
George Randol Productions have
opened the eyes of Hollywood for
the gold mine which is in colored
pictures and already combines are
being formed to tap this source
of revenue which is provided by
15,000,000 colored people and the
many fair minded whites who are
willing and eag r to see the color
ed actor interpret life as it ia liv
ed rather than the white authot
end director expects it to be.
Evidence of the efforts expend
ed by the white men in Hollywood
is the recently completed deal be
tween another independent com
pany and a man who has (been
distributing pictures for the last
twenty years to houses which have
colored patrons as their predomi
nant clientele. This man sees the
wonderful opportunity awaiting
the producers and distributor of
colored pictures and is getting on
the ground floor.
Randol has been contacted by |
almost every independent produ
cer in the movie capital and they
are asking how he brought the
picture under the wire and how
he saved so much money. It is a
known fact that thera is so much
waste in the movie city that many
a company has gone broke because
of their employees lack of know
ledge, but George Randol has
been acclaimed as one of the most
frugal men in the business and
a man who has the ability to work
for any company here.
Another feature about the
George Randol Productions is the
huge sum of money raised by the
officials ami the source of the
revenue. It is an all colored com
pany and all of the money was
invested by colored people. Holly
wood, the place where fabulous
fortunes are spent in the produc
tion of motion pictures, did not
believe that Colored people had
that kind of money to invest and
upon the realization that they did,
many people are working on plans
to form distributing outlets and
produce many colored films for
each yew.

MAKE SUN TANNING FUN
The outdoors present an irre
sistible Invitation to all of us during
the summer. There are so many
things to do—swimming, games,
urn-bathing, motoring—that we rush
Headlong into the sun and fail to
take the proper precautions against
Its disastrous effects. A little sun,
of course, Is excellent for health,
being the source of the much talked
of Vitamin D. It helps build up re
sistance to colds and strengthens us
generally. But taken in over-doses,
It can make us severely uncom
fortable, even to the extent of a
fever, convulsions and rapid pulse.
And so it follows that we must take
our sunning gradually and sys
tematically.
Apply Oil Freely
Before you go out In the sun for
any length of time, cover all the ex
posted parts of your body with a
cream or oil. Olive oil Is very ef
fective applied both before you go
C\jt In the sun and after coming In.
The sun has a tendency to dry up
all the natural oils In the skin and
the olive oil helps keep It lubri
cated. If you are out long enough
for the first application of oil to
dry out, be sure to use some more.
Dry skins sun tan more easily and
wrinkle faster than oily ones. Un
less you keep your skin well lubri
catea, it is nseiy to oecome rougn
and coarse and deeply lined.
When you come out of the sun It
is wise to wash off the oil with
warm water, being careful not to
rub the skin roughly, and apply a
coating of vinegar. If your skin Is
normally dry or if you feel that you
have been exposed overlong, you
might rub a bit of rich cream into
your skin and leave It on overnight. [
Drink plenty of water before and
after being in the sun. The heat of
the sun makes you perspire and youj
need more water to replace the fluid
thus lost.
Don’t be frightened out of your
share of summer pleasures by fear
of over-exposure to the sun. Just
follow these simple rules—lots of
water, frequent coatings of oil, and
plenty of common sense—and you
can have a glorious, carefree sum
mer.
What are your beauty'prob
lems? Write Marie Downing,
Larieuse Beauty Foundation,
Room 321 — 319 North Fourth
St., St. Louis, Mo., and she will
be glad to answer them. Be sure
to enclose a self-addressed
stamped envelope.

I beg your pardon, I w,ant too
correct a mistake, relative to the
dance, sponsored by the Marching
Club and drill team that was sched
uled for June 24th. By some un
foreseen mishap or something, 1
don’t know who was to blame for
this error but however charge it to
the writer. But anyway the dance
will be held in the evening June
26th. Now this will probably be the
last of our activities until after
the meeting of the convention, so
we hope you will be out in
two and fours and gixes. Help
these worthy units to get going so
that you will (not be ashamed of
them at their competition during
the setting of the convention. (For
after all they are a part of you.
The Iroquois Lodge No. 92 and the
Cherokee Temple 223 are working
for tlhe best interest of our group
and says “we are going” plaeas
and doing things. Yes, I believe
the E. R. has in mini to hold
another initiation before the con
vention. So you had better get
ready.
You that have rooms that will
be vacant during our celebration,
won’t you kindly get in touch
with Bro. C. C. Galloway, or call
direct to the lodge, JA. 9844. This
problem is giving us serious con
sideration at this time. But we
hope with the assistance of our
friends, we will meet the occasion
100 per cent. Bro. C. C. Galloway
is chairman of this committee. I
had a chance to visit the E. R.
Sunday and he told me that every
committe was reporting in fine
shape and was getting along fine
and dandy. Naturally the dispens
ation will close leading into the
convention and they tell me. The
District Deputy Bro. Otto Mason,
hasn’t a price from then on. So
you still have 6ome time left, so
let us hear from you. The con
vention sets on Sunday July 2nd
to 5th and we are all set for the
grandest time ever had in Oma
ha. We are trusting our friends
will give us their full cooperations.
