for him as soon as I could find
work. But I didn't for this rea

sister something for Christmas.
Did I do wrong?
Ans: Certainly not. You have
been entirely too good for this boy
friend of yours.... helping him
when you should have been doing
something for those near and dear
to you. You owe it to your moth
er’s memory to see that your ba
by sister is properly cared for un

A. F,—My reason for being so

be a good girl. I don’t allow boys
to do things I know to be wrong
for a girl to do. A soldier I like
told me he liked the nice quiet
way I acted. Yours with confid
ence.
Ans: You are too young a girl j
to be so sour on the world. True,
you get no Christmas gifts, but
don’t blame the boys.... it’s your*
own fault. To be popular, a girl
has to be gay and socialable. You

the “self pitying” side that people

always wanted to do.
Ans: In choosing a vocation
the wise person selects a work
that appeals to them, one they en

es them. Beauty Culture in your
case meets these requirements.
It’s a good business and there is a
future in it for smart people. You
have the talent and the natural
ability to make a crackerjack.

EDITORIALS
OF THE WEEK
AFTER THE WAR, WHAT?
In the midst of our campaign to
win opponents in the war on Naz
ism, it is called an unmixed evil;
the practices of the democracies,
only good...Neither assertion is
wholly true. The simple trut.a is
that more young men in Germany
have opportunities under Nazism
than they ever enjoyed under the
rule of the Emperor or the Rep
ublic. More of them have moved
nearer equality of opportunity
than an equal number have attain
ed in the so-called democracies.
And after the war is over, unless
the victors, which we believe wilf
be the democracies, make opport
unities the common lot of all men
and women in their borders, Naz
ism will not have been beaten...
Already Nazism has made its
Impression on our society and e
conomy ..The old England has
passed away; the slums and squai
or in which the workers lived be
fore the present war will never be
again; India, long exploited and
degraded, will be a freer and bet
ter land and her millions will en
joy opportunities for human ad
vancement they have not known
for more than two thousand years;
Russia will build on the ruins of
her empire and dictatorship a free
republic, and the masses of the
lands which lie beyond the west
ern sea. will be able to embrace

A. J.—Many thanks for ques
tions you gave me advice on la=t
year which I found both true -md
helpful. Your forecast proved so
helpful until I don’t feel like I c .n
be without it. Will send for it
next week. I married one year a

C didn’t know where I was going
to get food No we have a nice
cafe. I am thinking of making
another change out of the state.
What shall I do change states or

Ans: When you’ve got a good
thing, hold on to it. You’re male-,
ing progress and you’re better off
right now than you have ever been
As long as your cafe pays you and

it would be most unwise to chuck

THE RUSSIAN SYSTEM
For many years stories have
been written about Red Russians.
Nearly all of them maligned ano
belittled Russia and her form cf
government. These sjtories des
cribed an unhappy, ignorant Deo
ple; immorale, irreligious, brutal
and hateful. Their economic sys
tem was said to be such as to cre
ate for the people nothing but
misery.
Less than a year ago, Germany
invaded Russia and she resisted
and we now know that her res st
ance was superb. Her army stop
ped Hitler's legions cold, then
counter-attackerf and has the
mighty German army on the dc
fensive and in retreat.
The whole story about Russia is
gradually unfolding. Her people
are united; her economic system
has stood the strain of war, arid
soldiers and civilians alike are
willing to die by the millions to
preserve the Russia of today: the
system which until recent!/ we
have been taught to despise.
Our dream of democracy, a
dream we have not seen come t*ce
may be superseded by a new soc
ial system which will apply in
practice what we long promised
and constantly denied. Russia is
for all Rusians who subscribe to
the system under which they live
and have their being .
The leader of the Rusian state
Is an able, highly educated man,
possessing supreme power, nec
essary in the Russia of the Rev
olution. But after this war is ov
er, we believe the example of this
great country will become the s'ib
ject of study all over the wor'.l.
Hre we shall witness for the first
time, on a large scale, the full
fruition of democracy.
America may observe with both
profit and safety the example of
this people for whom we now ex
tend recognition and for whom his
tory will record that Hitler was
beaten on the plai.is of Russia
and that there civilization was
largely saved.
Russia was ready for Hitle\—
Was she also right?
THE RED CROSS AND
THE NEGRO
Recently national officers of the
American Red Cross advised the
National Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People tnat
COLORED PERSONS would not
be permitted to donate their blocd
, to the so-called “Blood Bank” to
be used for transfusions for wounc
ed soldiers In cases requiring it 0>
reason of loss of blood. As a re
sult of this curt refusal, as un
wse as it was unnecessary, color
ed people the country over pfe
much incensed at the Red Cro^s.
They are saying, and rightly, that
if they must go on the battleficd,
as they are doing now and give
their blood to save the hides of the
very officials who charge thal
their blood is not fit to aid wound
ed comrades, the Red Cross shouid
not ask for their money

i ..The whole matter could have
been avoided by the use of a
brains. If the officials of the Red
Cross had received proper types ot
blood from all comers, they wo^L
I have been on saf eg round.
Surely, we are not going to wir
' the war this way. Already, we
have lost much to Japan because
we viewed the people of that lani
| as “inferior". We insisted they
had few planes, a poorer army
and no courage; that once they
faced white men they would flee,
in disorder. The Red Cross wojIJ
regard their blood unfit for the
“Blood Bank”, just as they re
gard the blood of Negroes.
Let us stop being silly and make
a united effort to win this war.
Before it is won, much blood will
flow from the veins of white and
, black Americans, and the color of
blood will be red.
Will the Red Cross please take
notice and iproceed intelligently to
do its duty.
DONALD M .NELSON
Mr. Donald M. Nelson was ap
pointed recently by President
Roosevelt to direct the war prod
uction effort Only praise has re
sulted from the appointment, so
, long demanded and so long cvr
! due.
Our hope is that Mr. Nelson will
| get things done, in time,
i His record justifies the belief he
! will do just that and from this
point onward, we will have action,
action, action, and win the victory.,
We have been toid again and a
gain we could win this war and go
on “with our social reforms ”, for
geting that if Hitler wins this wa
we will be bereft of all forms, let
alone reform.
The coming of Mr. Nelson to Sis
great responsibilities to produce,
marks the final turning point in
the world war.
Meanwhile, we have learned //o
can’t beat something with nothing.
THE COUNTY ATTORNEY’S
OFFICE
The County Attorney is an im
portant official. It is his duty to
prosecute all persons within the
county who are accused of crime,
and to see that none is prosecut
ed unless he should be under the
law In addition the County At
torney is counsel for the county
of Douglas. He is required to ad
vise county officials as to their le
gal rights and duties in relation to
county affairs. The deputies in
the office of the County Attorney
are to do likewise.
For many years the County At
torney and his deputies have been
permitted to engage in private
civil practice to a large extent;
sometimes, it is said, at the ex
pense of county service. Be that
as it may, the County Attorney
should devote his whole time to
the County business. His deput
I ies should do likewise. However,
| all of them should receive adequate
| compensation, and no county at
■ torney and no deputy should b
I permitted to use the office for
: personal aggrandizement. Mere

FATHER DIVINE
Father Devine was mentioned
several days ago in the public

We think Father Devine “has

MR. HERBERT AGAR
Mr. Herbert Agar, Editor of the
Louisville Courier-Journal, is con
stantly reminding Americans that
we cannot have democracy in this
land unless we are willing to ex
tend all its protection and bene
fits and privileges to the American
Negro. Any other course, he de
clares, is not only undemocratic,
but unwise and unsafe.
In a recent radio broadcast Mr.
Agar pointed out that democratic
action toward the Negro in any of
the various ways possible here in
the United States will do more
for the preservation of democracy
than the destruction of a German
Panzer division.
He pleads for justice for the
Negro as necessary to vindicate
our democratic professions.

Woman Praises Mme.C.J. J,
Walker’s Preparations t
“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 t
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.
