WHAT CAN BE DONE WHEN
WORKING TOGETHER
We are told that recently colored
people In an eastern city succeeded
In crippling a large ice cream manu
facturers* business because at a pub
lic meeting of some kind the ern
ployee of the ice cream manufactar
Ing company, served the colored peo
ple after all whites had been served.
The news was flashed about the city
among the colored people through
their paper and from their pulpits.
In a very short time, all the colored
drug stores, colored entertainers, con-
fectionery stores and Ice cream par
lors which had been using his Ice
cream, stopped using IL This was
keenly felt by the manufacturer, for
there were some thirty colored drug
stores alone which sold his cream
And while the manufacturer made a
feeble effort to deny his Implication
in the insulting episode, the colored
people stuck together and steadfast
ly refused to patronise him.
Portland colored people would do
well to learn from these eastern
brothers and learn to trust their own
and the wont ot their own. equally.
If not more than others and their
words See how effective our pat-
ronage can be when we pool it?
Think on this.
The Advocate is glad to welcome
again Miss Emogene Clarkston of
Washington. D. C. in our midst. And
we also appreciate the fact that one

Items we cannot class as news, and

steadfastly refuse to turn loose a

enclose a m ney erd'-r or check when
sending in their doings and activi
