B. C.—Dear Professor: '.V’iii you please help me. I am in n-ed of a job but I don’t know what 1 ■-> do rs iny mother works during li e day and I have to be here to ie-nd to my baby when she isn't home. I do want to work and help out and hope you can tell me what t-j do? Ans: Inquire at the various ot- j fice buildings in your city and as* for night work. This seems to be about the most logical answer to your problem since you are in no position to employ someone to look after your baby in the day time. It will work out very nicely if you do get a night job as your mother ^ will be there when the child is j sleeping and you can be th re dur ing the day. Put your baby on the same schedule that you follow so that you will both have approx imately the same rest periods. E. J.—-I’m 19 years old and have ' been going with a boy for quite a while- My aunt doesn’t think I should go with him because he is going with other girls. Should I leave this boy alone cause he goe-s with others? You knnw I lik him lots and hate to stop. Ans: Whom he goes with may be your concern but really it isn’t any of y«ur business. You are not engaged to him and it i.sn’t your place to discuss his private life- There is no reason to ignore the boy because he goes with oth er girls. However if your aunt1 [ dosn’t feel that he is the type fel j low she wants you to associate I with, then that is a different story j I My suggestion is for you to date ] | other fellows and give him a thing 1 or two to worry about. X. Y. Z.—Thank you for an ans wpr Jn the next issue of th pap er. I am invited to a party and I have reasons to believe that ;f 11 go t0 the party it will be of no | good to me. Should I go to the j party? ; Ans. Feeling the way yo’i do j about the party, it would be best not to attend with a chip on your shoulder. You wouldn’t have any fun and you wouldn’t bp very good company for others May I re m nd you that you are taking 'h wrong attitude toward y0ur little bunch of friends. You can’t !tt little things that boys and g;~Is say worry you. L?arn to 1 >0k over them and laugh at them if possible. In the future make up your mind to go and enjoy your self like the rest and do not sit ai. home and brood because son eon? makes a silly remark. Y.D.—Please '.et me reacl tms ;?i your column soon. Why is it iny brother fights his wire so much- People .-rot'nd there says that he tells her hc will kill her if she doesn’t get out of his way. This worries me so much that I EDITORIALS (continued ^rom page l) to recapture the lost rights of 3 j peoole through legal and educat ional means. The getie”ation which had fought th<- Civ 1 War had well nigh d away when the NAA CP was born- The sublime moral | heights attained by the memlK>rf of the white rac in America had b' -n abandoned “i nthe quest for wealth”. Even the Negro Peop!| had succumbed to that philosophy, s'ncerely believing that the accum ulatjpn of wealth would solve all the problems of all the people. Thus, a few of the Negroes “went out for themselves” and became wealthy while the masses lost one right and opportunity after an other, political, social and econo mic. While this philosophy was ram pant, the Negroes were disfranchis arn getting sink about it. Tell me what to do? Ans: Don’t be led into someone I cise's family ba:Ues Undoubted-: ly ihe majority of trouble is br.>t on by your brat ior’s constant drinking and carousing around. It you have anything at all to say io your brother p ease say it only when he is sober and not in the pitsence of his wife.

Sweet—seems as tho you’ve heip r-d solve other people's troubles and lifted the outvj-n, so please htlp me. Tell me is it that I d0 not d ess well enough for my hoy friend for him t0 be seen 0ut plac es with me? Ans: Pretty clothes isn’t the answer to your problem. Your! friend just isn’t sufficiently inter ested to want to carry y0u around with him all of the time. Any man becomes spellbound jn the Company of an attractive girl with a fascinating line regardless of how she is dressed. If you want to "hook” this fellow you had bit ter stop taking him for granted and put a little spice and zip jnto your conversation and show him how cute you really can be. Don't be afraid to compliment him tor his good points as we all fall tor flattery more or less if it is given in an earnest manner. M. D.—I have been married 4 months and my husband is very jealous of my ex-boy friend. Wo are fussing and arguing all the time. What shall I do? Ans: The very first thing you must do is to stop mentioning your old boy friend’s name in the home. Also get him 0ff your mind It just doesn’t work out to talk a bout the good points of the other man you could have married to your husband- When yGu drop the subject your husband will make life pleasant and entertaining f0’ you. ^ QUICK CHICK, r DOWN/ if he SUSPECTS AHVTHINC \ WE'RE WASHED / X^^ UP i LIGHTEN TANNED e>|/'fa| dark an in Dr. FRED Palmer’s Skin Whitener lightens and brightens rough, blotchy, tanned-dark skin (externally caused).

The NAACP has done much to change this course. For thirty two years the NAA CP has fought the battles of the Negro in the courts of the land and has won many notable victories; it has opened new doors for work ers and has pointed the way for organizations. It is not a political organization and limits itself to advising the Colored People as to the attitude of men in public life toward them. Its reputation is nationwide. A dnit is respected by the whole pedple and feared by all evil doers. All Colored men and women in the Nation should belong to it, as well as white men and women who wish to See all persons in America giv en equality of opportunity. A membership in this Associat ion is a badge of Self respect. THE ELDRIDGE-GRAHAM CASE April 23rd, 1942, is the date Set for the hearing of charges against Sergeant Graham, brought by Mr. and Mrs. Eldridge and the Omaha Branch of the NAACP. During the excitement surround ing all such cases, many rumcrs are set afoot which have no relat ion to the essential elements of the case. Sergeant Graham is charged wiah unlawfully assaulting Mr. and Mrs. Eldridge. On that charge he will be tried before the Omaha City Council. In this Con nection, however, We desire to call to Mr. Jepsen’s attention the nec esity of having the rcord of Ser geant Graham presented to the Council during the trial. It is our desire to have a fair and impartial trial before an im partial tribunal. NAACP local Branch 2418 at Grant Street- Mr. A. B. McCaw, ! President, Mrs. John Albert Will iams, Secretary. PURE RACE THEORY DEBUNKED Dr. Earnest A. Hooten, Profes sor of Anthropology at Harvard University, declares that THE NEW ORDER ARYANS constit- j ote the most complicated racial mixture of history. And he then adds: One of the main reasons for the viciousness f Germanic biological blends is that a militaristic national ideol ogy has been developed deliber ately in order to select for survival i-iose who are the most fit-in the sen°e of being most bloodthirsty and domineering.” “It is possible by social and bio logical selection to produce a h”epd of moral imbeciles who who th£ help of ingeniously destructive gadgets .become efficient fighting dUr, mctans.

STUDENT GETS FIVE YEAPS \ SLAYING RIVALRY OVER PRETTY CO-ED AT TUSKEGEE LED TO CAMPUS MURDER Tuskegee, Ala.,— (SNS) A Ma con County jury Monday found John H. Thompson, 18 year old Tuskegee college student, guilty of slaying Robert James, 17 year old high school senior, as the res ult of rivalry for a pretty co-ed’s hand early in December, 19t! and a sentence of five years m prison was imposed by the trial judge. James, ona 0f the best liked stu dents in the high school, was stab bed in the heart by Thompson. Both had been rivals for the hand of a charming fresnman gin. Thompson met the girl while both, were passengers on the same train from Florida en route to the school to enroll for the fail school term. He had assumed the role of pro tector and escort to the young woman. James, an outstanding athlete, a member of both the foot ball and basketboll teams, also was attracted to the charming girl. The rivals wei'e said to have met at a dining hall during the noon hour the day of the slaying and after a brief exchange of words shook hands. Fellow students, seeing the act, came to the con clusion that the two had reached an understanding in their rivalry. CALLED VICTIM It was a brief three hours later at the supper hour when Thomp son was again seen with the g:r!. James walked in the dining hall and began talking to her. As sfte arose to leave, James was se n to grasp her by the arm, asking “May I assist you-?” Thompson left the scene, apparently angered Later as James walked toward the library with the girl Thomp son who was an agricultural stu dent, assigned to the floricultural department, called the high scho,,l student to him, witnesses said. Just as James approached Thompson whipped out a kn:fe used to prune flowers and plunged in into the youth’s left breast, the blade penetrating the heart, James staggered t0 the street and at tmpted to get a ride to the school hospital. He was picked up and rushed to the hospital where he died a few minutes after admiss ion. Thompson walked to the of fice of Dean E. H. Adams, where he surrendered, handing him the death weapon.
