America was among the fine hits
at Duke Elilngton’s stomp Mon
day night. The Jitterbugs was
pretty disappointed... .not at the
music, but at the restricted rules,
no jitterbugging. Those who for
got the rules were tapped politely
on the shoulder and asked to cool |
it.
A plenty of competition was go
ing on during the whole dance...
And did you notice Winfield Rag
land’s brother at the bass fiddle..
one of the best in the whole “set
up”)
Now here is what you have been
waiting for us to tell you..YES,
there were fights.... what big
dance have you witnessed without
one. The uniformed men were
out on the beat, .soldiers and pol
icemen; lending the music their
listeners and the floor their grown
grippers.

THE FASHIONS
Wiletta Bryant was styling a
red dress with hat to match. Ruby
Barberro and Olive Whitby had
dresses similar to each others,
black flared with net trimmings
j on top of pink silk. Roberta Long
mire’s dark dress with the white
ruffled color and black hat with
white feathers looked very fine.
Joyce Luckey and Edna Taylor
styled the brown fluffed feather
ed beanies. Addie Hall was wear
ing a fine blue plaid skirt and a
blue sloppy Joe style sweater. Es
telle Littlejohn styled a cute sport
outfit with pink socks and a print
sweater. Edith Catrol modeled
a wool green torso dress trimmed
with a touch of burnt red. Above

EDITORIALS
OF THE WEEK—
THE LOCAL POLITICAL POT
The Local political pet is boiling
New schemes are being hatched
wearing many disguises. Some of
them indicate they are the "greas.
ed mitt” variety; others involve
SCrlblinGS
HOWDY FOLKS, HOWDY! _
Since this column is a discussion
column instead of a lot of gossip.
The subject of the week is neck
ing. Here we are presenting
what different People think about
it.
******
A Girl’s Opinion
What’s the use of going with a
boy if you can’t neck sometimes.
A Boy’s Opinion:
Of course we boys like to rom
ance, that’s partly what we go'
with girl for.
A Minister’s Opinion:
I don’t think children should
conduct themselves in such a dis
orderly fashion.
A Mother’s Opinion:
Kissing or necking as the teen
agers call it, really isn’t becomirv
to a young couple. Necking a
rouses passion, which is something
that is uncontrollable.
I believe a boy and girl can gc
together without necking. Nuk
ing leads to many things.
My Opinion:
If a boy and girl want to neck
go and do it. But you all know
what it sometimes leads to. If
you think you can control passion.
....go on and neck, .be careful
where you neck. This shouldn't
be done in public places such as
the picture show, drugstore, or
any public place. Neck if you
please to do so, but be very care
ful. (Don’t tell anyone I neck1
sometimes).
******
Gossip:
Nothing much happened unus
ual during the week except the
big dance Monday night. And
you know the usual procedure.
Some of the girls and boys were
drunk. Of course some of them
went who really couldn’t afford
it knowing all the time they!
wouldn’t eat the next day, but the
young men thought they would,
show off one night anyway. Isn't
that right Cats?

Things You Never Noodle Now
About Fashions
No one wore anything unusud
so I do not have any fashion notes
at the present time.
******
Editorial:
As time goes on I will try to
improve this column. Since I’m,
new at this kind of thing. I hope
you will be patient till I do better.
In the discussions that are writ
ten at the first of this column, I
do not take any side. I show no
partiality. I ask several people
including a minister about their
opinion of necking. There will be
a dscussion each week.

smoking and drinking.

These ambitiius gentlemen see: :
unirrj pressed by the fact that vico

the country and their leaders are
being put in jail.
Their one insurmountable obst
acle which they seek to remove is

he is at the helm he will save
them by not permitting rackets!

BUY SAVINGS STAMPS
AND BONDS
It is a good thing to invest in
Savings Stamps and Bonds of the
United States. They are just as
good as the money of the country.
Everyone can buy stamps. Maybe
you will have to walk sometimes,
if you do, but that will also be
good for you, for if the axis pow
ers win this war, you will not onlyj
walk, but you will do it as slave
masters direct.
Buy stamps and bonds. Every
one who does is a soldier in the
war for freedom.

NEGRO TROOPS
Negro soldiers have had a long
and honorable record in our coun

olution, the War of 1812, the Civil
War, the Indian Wars, the Spamsn j
American War and the frirst
World War, they distinguished '
themselves and contributed their j
full share to winning the victories.!
The second world war has come. J
Japan, not content to dominate
the orient, came to our very shor

JOE LOUIS AND THE NAVY
Last Friday night Joe Louis de
feated Buddy Baer in a champion
ship fight at New York. He gave1
his whole purse of $90,000.00 to
the Navy Relief Fund. For this
| he has been criticised in many
quarters. To these criticisms
Louis answers that he knew what
he was doing, notwithstanding the
| fact that the United States Navy
| for whom he rendered his service
! would not permit him to enlist as
1 a seaman.
This action on the part of Joe
Louis should put the leaders of
government to shame and hasten
the end of the foolish discrimin
ation against colored men in the
U. S. Navy.
Louis is not only a splendid
athlete, but a fine American,
worthy of universal emulation.

The Larieuse Beauty Bureau was established by the ^
Godefroy Manufacturing Company to study methods
of preserving women's natural beauty, and to make
the results of this research available to the public.
We often think of a woman with
a lovely skin as being blessed by
nature. And, of course, she is. But
credit is due her too, for she knows
that a lovely skin can be kept beau
tiful only by her own efforts. She
knows that it takes constant vigi
lance and care to guard against en
larged pore openings, blackheads,
oily shine, or rough, scaly skin due
to dryness. She knows that scrupu
lous cleanliness and good health
plays an important role.
If your complexion isn’t all it
should be, it isn’t too late to restore
its loveliness. Start a campaign
right now for keeping it glowingly
Clean, and work hand in hand with
nature and improve it from within
by taking extra good care of your
health.
Here are a few simple "musts”
for vibrant health. Eat three, bal
anced meals a day containing plenty
of green vegetables, fresh fruits,
milk, butter, cream and eggs. Drink
lots of water—at least eight glasses
a day. Get as much fresh air and
exercise as you can, and sleep at
least eight hours each night. This
last might seem a bit difficult, but
a good average to shoot at.
Now for the outside. In many
sections of the country wintry days
with smoke-filled air mean more and
more care of your skin if you aspire
to a pretty complexion. However,
the following routine is equally
good for the lass from the sunny
south.
If your skin is the oily type, soap
and water is your best bet. Use it
liberally two or three times a day.
Be careful in your selection of soap.
Find a mild one that does not irri
tate your face and stick to it. After
each scrubbing pat on a mild as
tringent. Remember to treat your
skin gently. Always use an upward
movement when applying or remov
ing anything from your face. Some
times you will want to give your
face a thorough going over with
cold cream. Then you use the
transparent, liquifying kind, and
after wiping it off with tissue, you
remove every trace with a peppy
skin freshener. If you are bothered
with a little courseness down the
center of your face, maybe a few
blackheads on the forehead, nose or
chin, you’ll want to use a grainy
cleanser several times a week to
scour your skin clean and clear.
If you have a dry skin that rough
ens and flakes at the slightest pro
vocation, the more oil it gets the
better it looks. Especially in cooler
weather, go a little slow on soap
and water. Get a good sudsing at
night, followed by a rich, lubricating
cream, suffice. For daytime cleaning
use a white opaque cleansing
cream for the best results. Spread
it on carefully right up to the hair
line. Then whisk it off gently with
soft tissues. For a thorough job
use two coats.
Always remember that a lovely
skin is a clean one, and the care
that I have described helps nature
show you off to your best advantage.

CHINA j |
China has been known as a cv-.
ilized state for four thousand
years. Her philosophers, states-)
men and leaders of commerce have ,
made a lasting impression on civ- j
ilization.
Her living is oriental. All the
functions of their government and:,
social system are performed by
Chinamen in the manner of the
Far East. And like many parts
of the world, she permits the
strong to oppress and exploit the
weak. Thus, when Japan invad
ed her in 1931, the wealthy merch
ants and traders if the great cit
ies knew little about the Chinese
peasants and cared less. Now,
however, for the first time in many
years, China is beginning to find
unity. And with that, hope is a
gain coming to China, that she
may yet be able to defeat the in
vader and force him back into his
island home.
| The question is being asked how
can Japan be defeated. The ans
wer is simple and easily found.
Arm China with modern weapons
and Japan will be defeated and
her dream of-world conquest end
: ed. This is the sure way to win;

A Prominent Business ' 1
Woman Praises Mme.C.J. t
Walker’s Preparations {
i 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 i
Madam C. J. Walker to reach l
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. ^
• 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
derful preparations are sold by
Walker Beauticians and Drug
Stores everywhere, or you can

Mfg. Company, direct. Address:
