Some find they need only start on it three days bfore “the time” and take it as directed in order to relieve periodic pain due to func tional causes. Others find that the proper use of CARDUI enables them to stim ulate appetite and improve diges tion (through the increased flow of digestive juices). So they are enabled to build up strength and energy and relieve periodic head aches, nervousness, cramp-like pain and other associated function al distress. It has been popular ; for 61 years.

SMITH) The Waiters organization is d ing a very fine job and we hope for them good success as the wide 'wake president and the streaml ined secretary are tbe right n en in the right place and when you are helping others you are h: Iping yourself. We had the pleasure of talking adth Capt. Booth of the Paxton Hotel who is up from the largest state in the union and he informs me that the race horse headwai ter Mr. Corbert an dthe Stream but particular American Negroes. The double “V” campaign advo cates freedom at hime and abroad. Many discouraging things have happened during the past few weeks. Unwise agitation about these things may prove detriment al to national morale but we must courageously contend for democ r-cy for all people in the wisest way possible. Fighting for freedom for Chin ese, British colonials and Indians is worthwhile, but we can Only do :>ur best when we feel that the Negro will receive complete econ omic, political and cultural free dom. The double Victory camp aign will prove to be a successful venture if it pursues sober and un prejudiced lines and insists on real and practical national unity. Vic tory will never be realized until white people as well as Negroes, get victory over their own preju diced hearts and opinions. i . -; Everett Edmond, graduate of Terrell Law School, attached to the Administrative Office of the War Department, Bureau of Pub lic Relations, scans work of mim eograph machine.
