Now If You Have
$500 you can Move
to Liberia
(Continued from page 1)
through the cooperative system.
My scheme has been submitted to
His Excellency, President Edwin
Barclay of Liberia, and has met
with gracious approval. He has
granted an entire township Ion
which wo can build and establish
ourselves.
“We need honest, industrious,
race-loving people. People who
aro interested in nation building.
We need men who feel and can
t
prove themselves men among men
because of the act that.&his is a
tropical country, and for the good
of all concerned—people from
Southern States and those with a 1
West Indian background will be
ho best fitted for the task of
pioneering at this time. But bear
in mind that tiho government and
tha people of Liberia welcome
every black tran who is cap*bit
of taking care of himself.
"The settlement will be oa antr
of the rivers here, the most con
venien“. route to Monrovia from
any point where there is forest
land. This means eight miles
along the river and eight mile*
back—64 square miles of virgin
land, fcV-b familiy is to bo/ 75
acres, and get 25 acres from She
government, making » total of
100 acres for each family. Tb*.*
land will coot 50 cents per acre,,
and a town lot will not cost more

"Although it is tb« pate? of

A Prominent Business
Woman Praises Mme. C.J.
Walker’s Preparations
"I use Mme. C. J. Walker's
preparations exclusively be
cause I get results from them
that I am unable to get from any
other preparation,” stated a well
known business woman the
other day.
The secret of the remarkable
success of Mme. C. J. Walker's
preparations is in the fact that
they were blended by the late
Madam C. J. Walker to reach
certain definite conditions of the
hair, skin and scalp, and today,
after over thirty-five years on
the market, they are growing
increasingly popular, and not
withstanding the fact that the
Company has always refused to
reduce the price on these goods,
they are still in demand every
where.
Mme. C. J. Walker's Glossine,
although more than thirty-live
years on the market, is still the
leader in its field. The reason
for this is because it not only
serves as a scalp oil, but it gives
the hair that silky sheen and
natural gloss that is the delight
of every woman.
Mme. C. J. Walker's Brown
Face Powder is not just another
Face Powder, but is the rcsuK of
years of experimenting to pro
duce the perfect blend to impart
a velvetlike softness and at the
same time cooling and refresh
ing. Just the thing for these hot
days.
The Mme. C. J. Walker's won
derful preparations are sold by
Walker Beauticians and Drug
Stores everywhere, or you can
write The Mme. C. J.'Walker
Mfg. Company, direct. Address:
The Walker Building. Indian
