LARGEST ENROLLMENT IN HISTORY AT SOCIAL SCHOOL
With 110 students. 107 of whom
are full time, enroled at the pres
ent time, the Atlanta University
School of Social Work not o3iy
enjoys the largest enrollment i.i
the iiistory of the Institution, but
has become one of the ten largest
schools of social work in the world
irrespective of race. It is also the
largest professional school of any
kind among Negroes. While it is
the only school of its kind devot
ing itself solely to the training of
young Negro men and women for
the profession of social work and
offering th full two-yeai grad
uate course leading to thy aegree
of Master of Social Work, it draws
its students from non-racial as
well as racial institutions scatter
ed over a wide area.
Forty*even American colleges
1 and universities, representing a
i widely scattered area, have aluinni
who have entered the School of So
cial work. Some of the oustar.d
ing institutions from which these
young people received their liberal
arts training are: New York Uni
versity and Hunter College of New
York City University of Illinois
of Urbana, Illinois; Temple Univ
ersity of Philadelphia, Pennsylvan

Brown, Clark and Atlanta Univ
ersity are well represented with
from three to seven alumni regis
tered from each of the college
From 26 states, the District of
Columbia and India, according to
Director Forrester B.'Washington
have come these young people who
have congregated in Atlanta some
times called the “Athens of the
South”, in order to secure grad'
uate training for the field of their
chosen vocation. One of the strik
ing phenomena is the enrollmet of
thirty men,wh ich is attributed not
only to the increased interest in
social work on the part of Negro
men. but also the success of the
school in placing its male as well
as its female graduates In good
paying jobs. Included in the en
rollment are not only students who
have their bachelor’s degree but
those who have, already obtained
their master’s degree and who are
now working for the Master cf
Social Work degree. In addition
there are several students who
have studied at other schools of
social work

REELECT JUDGE RINE
Judge (John A. Rine should he
re-elected Judge of the District
Court. He is probably the most
fearless Judge on the Court and
ho is being crucified by the gam
blers and bookmakers because 'he
was 'brave enough to shut up 100
bookie gambling joints- It was
time he did. One County officer
admitted that he had gambled a
way thousands of dollars of '.he
Counties money, partly in these
places. You all know that suffer
because men’s wages are being
gambled away.
Can these gamblers overcome
all of the decent, God fearing vot
ers wfto do not want the gamblers
to elect our Judges? You voters
can elect Judge Rine if you will
just remember to vote for him.
Pick out htsn ame from the 18
candidates for District Judge.
Nine Judges are to be elected.
You are entitled to vote for nine
or less number.

A Prominent Business l
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 i
certain definite conditions of the I
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. f
• 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 sheep 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
derful preparations are 6old by
