The All
Seeing
EYES.”
HI FOLKS! The AH Seeing
Eye is here again this week to foc
us your attention on a few incid
ents that have occurred during
the past week. These are no op
tical illusions. I hope you are en
joying this column. It isn’t to
drag anyone, but it is to create a
musement and enjoyment. I have
received several compliments about
this column although the people
that complimented the column did
not know the ‘‘Cyclops” was in
thgir midst. Well Hep Cats.
Chicks, Jacks and Janes. Sheiks
and Shebas—here is What Cyclops
saw during the week—
QUIET
All is quiet now since the Carn
ival is gone, but there will be an
other Carnival soon, and in the
meantime, why not enjoy the mu
sic on the Corby Street playground
each Monday. I hope to be seeing
you at each of these entertain
ments.
MYSTERY WOMAN:
Who was the girl that called
the Tuxedo Thursday night and
asked to talk to anybody. How
ever she jived several boys down
th(ere that she didn’t even know.
I won’t divulge her name in this
column, but girls let’s not call the
Tuxedo unless we have a definite
reason or a certain person to talk
to. Let the boys have some peace
once in a wdiile. Do you mind
boys if we girls call there?
MANNERS
As I sat in the Drug store Sun
day —A certain Chick stepped :n
as she stepped in some girls who
were sitting in a booth began to
make fun of this Chick. Girls
please don’t be such critics be
cause very few girls can afford to
make fun of someone else. I am
sure not any of you would like to
have someone make fun of you,—
so please be considerate of others
and just offer constructive critic
ism if necessary. If you don't I
will be forced to write your nam
es in this column and let every
one know Who Omaha’s critics are.
BEST DRESSED BOY
OF WEEK:
Chauncey Barnette was all drap
ed to a fine. He is on like a maz
ada lighjt with all the chicks. De
lores Williams is fine also.
NEXT WEEK:
Next week there will be a gnand
and glorious new attraction in this
column. I am sure everyone will
be interested. Did you know that
among Omaha’s Negroes we have
some boys and girls who resemble
actors and actresses in Hollywood
Be sure and read this column to
find out who these people are and
who they resemble and also the
point of resemblance.
Be Seeing you til next week.—

This Week In Religion
and Thought
BY ROBT. L. MOODY
Christianity’s Foundation
Every institution or system of
knowledge and experience has
some source of authority. Each
branch of science has its found
ation. It is naive to think that
theology would not have reliable
authority. But there are those to
' day who doubt this fact without
careful study and open minds.
The Sunday school lesson for
the week deals with the Holy Spir
it’s guidance in the writing of the
New Testament. Anyone ■who
will consider the writings of the
Bible, especially the New Testa
ment, can see that man, unaided,
would not have written the Bible.
The gospel Is not man’s inven
tion. The very character of
gospel is wholly opposed to the
drift of human pendencies. Its
supreme aim is the tranformatiun
of human nature. It runs con
trary to the whole course of hu
man life and surpasses all the ef
forts of human ingenuity. It
reveals God’s plan of salvation and
His way of life men. We may be
very positive that “all scripture is 1
given by the inspiration of God.”
Just as we accept the Constitution
of the United States as the foun
dation lawf of our land, so the Bible
is the foundation and authority
for all that is truly Christian.

Saybert Hanger our president,

knowledge and understanding mak

We have enjoyed it. and I am sure
he has.

F.nd Joe Owens; thank you again
gentlemen, without your help we
would have been lost. Honor
these men Omaha, they are your
sons, encourage thpm on to great

Golf, as I have said before, I
believe is the greatest sport on
earth. Out in the beautiful sun
shine, the green grass, the fresh
air and many other advantages
thpt sends the persons playing on
to greater health. Many of us
can only enjoy golf a few hours
a week, but when we finish, we
realize we have 'lived a beautiful
day. The more the merrier, so
come on out and enjoy it with us.
We cordially ask you to attend the
Central States Tournament and
help us along with) your support.
Thank God. yes thank Gad, that
we can still enjoy a few hours of
real life. We are so fortunate
that we will be able to entertain
our friends and associates from

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 I
hair, skin and scalp, and today, 1
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-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 Brou n
Face Powder is not just anoth^ r
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.
