CELEBRATING HER BIRTH
DAY
Miss Cola Pierson, the miniature
waitress of the famous E and E
Little Diner really enjoying her
self to c.he height of perfection,
with a smile on her face twice as
large as she is for her age. Misu
Pierson is just like all ladies and
won’t tell her age, but the way
she looked Saturday night, and the
way she danced in my opinion she
is just 22 yearn old. Miss Pier
son was in company of the genial
Jack Whitmeyer and the ever jo
vial Miss Hayes owner of the Lit
tle Diner Cafe.

deard old Uncle Sam for 12 years.
Anyway Me looks and acts the

COTTON CLUB SWING BAND
The Cotton Club Swing aggra
tion is about t'he hottest in
town. 4 of the boys were formerly
with Nat Towles. The piano play
er and his ten fingers sound like
Eddie Duchin and the weli known
Bates is trying his level best to
dethrone old Satchamo and Archie
Brown needs no introduction for
he is really top>* wi.h his trom
bone. The only difference be
tween him and Tommy is Tommy
draws down more shekels. That
sax man can hold a note longer
than it takes some of the boys to
pay ime those small favors and the
Charity Martin does when some
Drummer makes more noii e than
one draws out on him, but sweet
er noise. AH in all the band is
tops; also, the floor show is ex
cellent, featuring Miss Jean Pow
ell from Chicago, the whirl wind.
W .C. Williamu, Master of Cere
monies, Wianoia Harris the All
Right Then singer of perfecton,
Velma Morris, torch singer Deluxe.
The Cotton Club had only stan
ding roam at 11 ’clock with a jol
ly crowd of mixed patrons and the
waitresses were tying their best
to give the best of service under
trying conditions. Why do the pa
trons stand up when the floor
show begins and crowd tihe aisie?
If every body keeps their seats
then all can see and hear. Every
body had a good time, in fact, they
always do at the Cotton Club.

Watkin directing that hot band
and her dancing is superb, in fact
it is tops; afcly assisted by Selma
Long and Babi Jiner and the boy
with the hot feet make a very hot
floor show. McGill says that he
will spare no expense to bring
his patrons the best in entertain
ment every week. Me wishes to
thank all the good people for their
attendance. Since he knows what
they want he is going to try to
keep it for you. Good music and

A Prominent Business
Woman Praises Mme.C.J.
Walker’s Preparations
I
“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, i
they are still in demand every
where.
Mme. C. J. Walker’s Glossine,
although more than thirty-five
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 result 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- 1
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
apolis, Indiana.
