THE MERRIEST CHRISTMAS
The same kind of a Christmas we knew !
when we were boys and girls. When bob-sleds
plodded merrily over the country roads and the
brooding peace of Yuletide. That is the kind
of an old fashioned Christmas we are wishing
you now, and with our wish may we extend a
word of thanks and appreciation for your con
tinued friendship and patronage.

VOGUE:
Miss Nancy Bryant looked very
cute as she strolled down the pad
in her black boots. Miss Alberta
Booth looked most stunn-ing as
she strolled the halls in a black
skirt, white blouse and red sweat
er. Miss Bertha Davis was seen
wearing some very unique costume
jewelry. The jewelry was made
of red holly berries. Miss Ionez
Upcher looked very sophisticated
in her light blue dress with ’ong
puffed sleeves. Miss Bertha Car
ter looked stunning in her black
skirt and pink satin blouse.
New Hair Style
I am sure you all saw the new
hair style that Wendell Jenkins
came on with. Looks like he was
trying to double for Cesar Romero
Do you think he wasn’t on? Well?
Shop Early
.. Listen boys three shopping days
til Christmas.
Forgery:
I suppose you cats and chicks
do not realize that it is a peniten
tiary offense to forge someone’s
name. Just recently here was
some profane literature going a
round and someone wrote another
girls name on it. Before you kids
write someone’s name on anything
get the persons’ permission to
write his or her name on it. Please
don’t stoop to forgery.
Untruthful:
We are sorry to write in this
column that some girl or boy has
been distributing false statements
and malicious gossip to a boy who
had a lot of confdence in his girl
friend. Through your untnie
statements you have almost caus-1
ed a separation of a certain couple I
I think the person who caused all j
of this trouble should apologize j
to the boy so that he may again j
resume cvonfidence in his girl.:
You who told these false stories
about the girl should apologize to
her, because she feels very bad
that you have succeeded in telling
her boy friend all of there untrue
statements about her, and they
have just about parted. We are
asking you to apologize immediat
ely. I am sure this boy and this
girl will exceppt your apology
without any argument. You
would also feel bad if someone ac
tually told false stories on you.
So "Do unto others as you would
have them do unto you”. Please
apologize to this girl and boy im
mediately.
Christmas Suggestions:
Boys we realize that it is diffic
ult to choose presents for us girls
but I talked to some of them and,
the girls said they liked presents
that they could keep to remember
you boys by. We appreciate candy
but we eat that in a day, so we
can’t keep that, in memory of
of you. We use up cosmetics so
we can’t keep that to remember
by. So keep in mind something we
can keep in remembrance of you.
Don’t say that the dance Thurs
day night took all of your money
because that is a frone excuse.
Remarks:
I wish all of my readers of this
column a Merry Christmas. I
wish all of my friends and my
many enemies a Merry Christmas.
Your friend,
The CYCLOPS and ASSTS.

A LETTER TO HIS SONS |
Galangue, Angola 1
September 24, 1941.
Messrs Aaron and Bobby
McMillan,
2892 Miami Street, »
Omaha, Nebraska, USA.,
My Dear Sons:
We are weu ana aoing nicely. It
has been more than a year sinca
we have received a letter from you
boys, and we are wondering if
our letters have been reaching
you.
Yesterday, I received a letter
from Dr. Stearns, mailed Decem
ber 2, 1940, we also received in
the same mail a nice bunch of
Christmas cards, from friends in
America. Since some of the mail
is beginning to come through we
were <£rtainly expecting that
some of your long overdue letters
would be in that mail, but we
were truly and grievously disap
pointed. However we are consid
erate for we know that this war
has been havoc to many letters at
sea.
Write us. Perhaps the letters
will get through some day. Stick
to your studies. Be honest above
mates of the home. Names were
also drawn for the exchange of
Xmas presents. The Xmas party
will be at the home of Mrs. Geor
gie Goosby Tuesday Dec. 30th,
Mrs. Agnes Curtwright was ap
pointed chairman of the party as
sisted by Mrs. H. Burroughs and
Mrs. U. S. Matthews.
Dec 10th Mrs Charles Murry
was hostess to the ladies of rhe
Club. This being an all business
meeting the evening was spent in
completing plans for the Xmas
party. All members payed their -
assessment. It was voted we en
large our donations to the Red
Cross and also enlist the club for
what ever service we are needed
for.
The President reminded the
members about giving a basket for
xmas to some needy family.
We were very saddened to rec
eive word of the passing of a dear
friend and co-worker, Mrs. S. Joe
Brown of Des Moines, la. It was
just last May she was guest speak
er at our State meeting. She was
also the President of the Central
Association of Colored Women’s
Clubs of which we belong. We
regret the loss of this noble wom
an and ardent worker. When in
Omaha she was the house guest of
Mrs. R. C. Price. In times like
these and when friendship should
be more closely woven together.
We wish to take this opportunity
to thank our friends for their co
operation in the past year, and ex
tend to you our sincere wishes 1'or
a very merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year. "Our motto”
Working Together.
Mrs. R. C. Price, President, Mrs
Frank Johnson, Secretary.
