parently, was quite a success.
America shall give to the colored
people equality of oportunity in ev

If we do this and hold America to

THE OMAHA GUIDE SHOULD BE
IN TEN THOUSAND HOMES
The Omaha Guide which has al
ways been devoted to the welfare of
the Middle West in genral and Om
aha in particular, should be in at
least ten thousand homes and be
read by 50,000 persons instead of
the 20,000 who read it now.
It is not a perfect paper, but you
can help to make it better than it
is, that it may the beter serve the
City of Omaah, the State of Nebr
aska and the Middle West, and the
NATION.
To be sure, the Guide has made
mistakes, as all agencies run by hu
man being must, but on the whole
it seeks to build rather than des
troy. If it must criticize this cause
or that, it does so for the common
good, hoping always that right shall
triumph ver wrong.

THANKS
Thanks fr the many compliments
received on our editorial last week
on the NAACP. Everything we said
about this organization was true.
And of it, we shall speak, and speak
again.
****
When our new Circulation Man
ager calls to see you, please give
him a hearing. He is trying to
learn how the Omaha Guide may
better serve you. And if you will
tell him where we have failed, he
will make the wroogs right and the
Guide and you will both be pleased.

THE RAILROADS AGAIN
Several times we have mentioned
the work being done by railroads
-during the present war. During re
cent months we have heard and said
things about other agencies involv
ed in the War effort. But the ef
ficient manner in which the rail
roads have met and mastered the
tremendous task of transportation
of materials and men, marks them
as the FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE
FOR AMERICA AND the United
Nations.
Nevtr before has a transportation
system of any kind performed a
service on such a tremendous scale,
so well.
In an older generation in order
to describe their work, we would
have used such terms as extraord
inary, Magnificient, SUBLIME. In
our own age, less ornate than oth
ers that have passed, we are com- |
tent to speak of their contribution j
as the supreme accomplishment of |
wondrous, troubled time. i

Remember, last week, C. C. I men
tioned something about a ninety
seven year old person? Well, one of
your readers hailed me during the
week to tell me not only of another
ninety-seven year old person but he
also gave me a real human-interest
story. The reader’s name is Rich
ard Turner, 3018 Burdette Street,
and the story is that in his house
lives four generations and each male
member is named Richard Turner.
The oldest is an ex-slave—the ninety
seven year old member. His son,
same name, is 53. His grandson,
same name, is 25, and the great
grandson , same name, is 5 years
old. Can you beat that for a hu
man-interest family story?
—CCM—
Also, last week, I mentioned some
thing about some man being on one
job for thirty-five years. During
the week I got acquainted with,
Mrs. Ruby E. Eldridge, of Maple
Street (and more prominently known
in connection with the Sgt. Graham
case) and she voluntarily told me
that her husband Wm. Eldridge, has
been on one job with the Union Pac
ific Railway for thirty-five years.
Is that the same man I spoke of
last week, C. C? At first I thought
Mrs. Eldridge had the relationship
wrong for she, herself, didn’t look
like she was thirty-five years old,
and at first I thought she meant
her father.
—CCM—
By the way, C. C. what was the
outcome of the Sgt. Graham case?
I heard “Judge” Pinkett saying
something about the case but I
didn’t get the actual facts. If you
learn them print them in another
column, C. C.

I spoke of Miss Mandarin Jones
3028 Burdette Street, last week
She stopped me Saturday to tell me
that her father successfully under
went an operation that day.

Did you know that Mrs. Willa
Gray, 2620 Decatur Street, who
works at the Pullman Hotel, has
been suffering from arthritis?

And Mrs. Julia A. Smith, 2410 De

women workers at the Cudahy
Plant is now enjoying her two
weeks vacation.
