GIRL FROM CHICAGO
Lady will you please introduce
yourself to the smiling bartender
who mixed them for you at the
Famous H and M. I know that I
am asking the unusual, but he is
very bashful and he wants to say
hello to you. He thinks he has met
you some where before. But I doubt
; it.

RADIO FOR SALE
Yes, you can buy one cheap. See
Jess Hardin. Maybe the Madam
won’t choose to sell. Jess came
stumbling home about 2 minutes
after the milk man December 31.
Of course the H and M closes on
time as we all know. But where
was you until 6:30 a.m. Spencer
Grey told the gang that the good
madam didn’t quarrel. Such a good
wife. But she pulled the radio right
up side of the bed and let it stay
right there, turned it on full blast.
Well did you ever try to sleep when
some guy on the air is trying to
convince you that his soap is the
best in the world, specially when
the radio is just six inches from
the bed. Just try and sleep. Ask
Jess did he get his beauty nap. Of

CONSERVATIVE 12
The Conservative club got to
gether Sunday December 31 in the
Blue Room and folks what a time
those boys and girls did have. Eats
was bountiful. About 3 big Nebras
ka fed turkeys and all the trim
mings. About 12 dozen of those big
! Louisiana shrimps. Of course there
was lots of pop to drink. Yes to
wash down all of that turkey. The
club only consist of 12 members.
But I seen about 35 happy folks.
Maybe I was celebrating my birth
day a little heavy. May the club
prosper in 1940 as in 1939. The of
ficers consist of: President Edith
Hope; Secretary Myrtle Stringer;
Treasurer Minnie Burns; Reporter
Dorothy Thornton.
'GIRLS BE THOU CAREFUL
The big fat real right man from
Oakland, Cal. Well, you know him
all right gals. Just a hit. His best
girl friend from Oakland has ar
rived in town. So all the places he
used to go by himself, that is out
now. She just loves to go places.
Sorry girls.
D. X. STATION
Folks, Mr. Leroy Thompson and
his wife Jeanette, I believe is the
only man and wife partnership in
his man’s town who operate a fill
ing station located on 24th and
Grant St. Mr. Thompson wants you
to drop around some time and
pay him a visit. Also Mr. Wendell
Welsh. By the way, do you know
that Wendell transacted practical
ly all of the D. X. business north
of Cuming St. Our people can do
i a lots of things if just only given
the chance. Lots of luck to the
holy three.
SQUAWKING AT 3 A.M.
What matter Spencer Grey get
ting soft or are you losing your
charm. Why didn’t you tell her to
go home or go where good little
girls should be at such a wee hour
in the dawn. Maybe if you had
went to see the fights I am sure
you would have enjoyed yourself
better. At least, there wouldn’t of
been a heartache.

XMAS HAS GONE
I know some of you are glad to
see it all over. For just one days
happiness you spend the next 11
months paying and freting. That
new radio or ice box or that fur
coat. Yes, it must be paid for and
just oddles of watches and beauti
ful rings that beautify miladys
fingers. Yes, yes, they must be
paid for. What do we care just so
it made some one happy. Just as
soon as you get the final payment
made, what happens. Christmas is
here again, then you do the same
thing all over again. Maybe not
the for the same one but another
one. So what the difference. Your
sole purpose is just one thing and
that is to make some one happy
then on the other hand that some
one makes you happy, but here is
the catch. She takes your mazuma
to buy you a pair of soxs or a
couple of handkerchiefs or one of
them very loud ties| You’ve got to
pretend you are tickled pink or
else their goes your Xmas. I am
in favor of abolishing Xmas for
grown ups all togethers. Just for
youngsters only.
SMART SET
The Smart Set gave their an
nual Dance at the beautiful de
corated Elks Hall which was a
gala affair. A wonderful time was
had by all. Some of the parties
took the opportunity to help Red
Perkins celebrate two events. The
elder Perkins birthday and the
younger Perkins anniversary. Yes,
the number one. Here’s hoping he
can and will celebrate the Golden
Anniversary. Others have, so why
not you. The time isn’t long. Just
forty-nine more years.

THE VOICE
Little fellow you belong to one
of the swellest organizations in
this whole world barring none. I
myself was one a member. Still
looking forward to be reinstated
as soon as my collatral will per
mit me. Your tone of voice to the
young lady about sitting on the
table was wholly unjustified. In
the first place, the lady was not
sitting on the table. Merely lean
ing against the table and when you
was asked for four chairs your
remarks was not in accord with
your instruction. That I know for
sure, because your brothers do
everything humanly possible to
satisfy their guest and really do a
wonderful job because everyone of
your guest speaks highly of your
organization and it members. So
please in the future, Brother, be
more considerate. I thank you and'
sincerely hope no ill feelings.
H and M
About five jitterbugs came into
the H and M like a lion, looked up
and spied Harry Buford, (results)

lamb. Between the five you could

BARBER SHOP ON SATURDAY
It is really a mystery to me why
a certain barber in this town waits
until Saturday to play rotation
pool when all the barbers in the
United States trying to get well
on Saturday. Of course I don’t
know the barber business, but looks
like to me the shops are more
crowded on Saturday than Monday.!
Oh, maybe he gets his during the
week. Oh me.
DREAMLAND HALL
It has been rumored around by
persons unknown to this writer
that the Dreamland has been con
demned. That is absolutely false.
That hall is not condemned and
never will be in this generation.
Maybe someday when your kids,
that are in the kindergarten class
becomes grandmothers, then the
old hall may become a wee bit
shakey. The real fact is the floor
has got to be tightened and that
will be done very soon by a com
THE ETERNAL NOW
Mary Jean Gorden
Sometimes I’ve wasted prescious
hours of today,
In returning to yesterday’s
sorrow.
Sometimes I’ve forgotten to live
today,
In thinking of plans for to
morrow.
Where I wise, I would cling to
the though
That today for myself, I’ll
allow; ;
A life in itself:
And I’d give my best to the now,
The glorious eternal now.

that building is only 16 years old ^
and cost 65 thousands dollars.
Buildings don’t wear out that quick
for that kind of money. Then you
can take the Douglas street bridge.

Chicago, Jan. 4 (ANP)—Horace
R. Cayton, fellow of the Julius
Rosenwald fund, and director of
the Good Shephard Community
Center, last week announced for
the sponsor, the release of two
monographs of a series which is
in preparation on the study of the
Negro community in Chicago.
The large study of the Negro
community of which these mono
graphs are a part was started in
November, 1936, under the direc
tion of W. Lloyd Warner of the
University of Chicago, and Horace
R. Cayton of the Works Progress
Administration to study cultural
and social factors surrounding the
problems of juvenile delinquency
of the Negro in Chicago. The study
was financed and completely staf
fed through the WPA; and was
sponsored by the Institute for Juv
enile Research. After the project
had been carried on for some
months, it was decided that the
situation presented an excellent
opportunity to make an exhaustive
study of a modern community, and
