KEEPING GRANTS PASS WHITE
In last week’s issue of The South
ern Oregpn Spokesman, the editor
made a futile attempt to answer the
editorial comment the Associate Edi
tor of The Advocate made upon his
previous editorial^about Grants Pass
being a white man's town, which we
published in full in the same issue
as the comment.
The editor of the Spokesman failed
utterly In two whole columns to pre
sent evidence sufficient to support
his charges against the Race, and
showed he was no good sportsman
when be failed to publish our com
ment and then have his say about
it He chose only to pick out certain
words and sentences, segregating
them from other sentences, thereby
causing them to lose their true mean
ing and intent and raged about them
in a most savage manner. We real
ly do not feel that it is worth while
to try to discuss a question so im
portant as the one under discussion
with a man so poorly informed as
our contemporary, but there are a
few questions he touched upon that
we will attempt to show him the
truth about in the next issue of The
Advocate.
A TEXT BOOK OF BEAUTY
CULTURE
We are in receipt of a copy of “The
Successful Hairdresser", a text book
of beauty culture, giving a complete
course in all the branches ef the
work. The book comes in a unique
binding of brown lettered In gold,
making a very attractive combina
tion. It is illustrated throughout and
also bears the likeness of the author
ess. The authoress. Mrs. Kathryn
Wilson. Omaha, Neb., a race women,
known to many Portlanders, dedl
cates her book with these significant
words: To the woman who has
fought a duel with fear, worry, doubt
and suspicion, and knows that you
trust carve your own destiny; that
jot must weave the cloth that clothes
y.-cr own future; that you are a suc
cess or a failure in proportion to
your faith in God and your faith in
your own abilities?”
The book represents the study of
years in the art of beauty culture by
Mrs. Wilson, who is the founder and
owner of The California Sun Parlors,
521 North Thirty-third Street. Omaha.
Neb. and who with her estimable
husband occupies a prominent place
in the fraternal, civic, social and
church circles of Omaha.

TWO SPLENOID PEOPLE
The colored citizens of Portland
were blessed with the presence and
kindly association of Dr. and Mrs.
Elbert W. Moore of Pittsburgh. Pa.
who went about amongst us “doing
good." Out of their abundant store
ot knowledge born of wide experience
in the great social and spiritual life
of the people, both in this country
and abroad, they gave us much to
think of and work with. Both are
earnest conscientious Christians with
a vision. And that is what the church
needs so badly today in the pulpit,
men and women with a vision. Both
are well fitted tor their chosen work
and while they have given many
years to the work, they have a long
road before them for even greater
service. Dr. Moore is conservative,
learned, scholarly, with a bearing of
dignity that befits a king.
Mrs. Moore is quiet, conservative,
sweet of voice and charming of per
sonality; she !s talented above the
average woman, and her wide experi
ence as a social worker has taught
her to know people; it has given her
accuracy of thought and firmness of
action. She goes to meet a problem,
not waiting for tt to reach her; above
all, she is efficient, capable and un
afraid! The Race needs women of
Mrs. Moore’s character. We congrat
ulate the Baptist denomination, espe
cially the church in San Francisco,
where Dr. Moore has been called, and
the Race in general upon having the
services of this pair of excellent
thinkers and intrepid leaders who do
not deal in abstractions, but who roll
up their sleeves and work in “con
crete".
We have been greatly benefited and
encouraged by this visit with us, and
it is our earnest prayer that they will
be again spared to come among us
“doing good".

ON BEING FUNNY
We enjoy a good
joke as
well as anybody; we also appre
ciate the tact that the majority of
our race can smile when the whole
world seems sad. But remember,
Race men and Race women, the Bible
says there is a time for everything,
and surely there must be a time to
laugh and a time to cry, and don’t
forget that all the time is not tor
laughing. We are told that during
the big rose festival parade the other
day. a Race man, of soldierly appear
ance, when all about him his com
rades were marching, shoulders erect,
faces forward, he was looking “this
way and that,” up to the building
windows along the streets with his
“pearls” shining and glistening, as he
viewed the "scenery” about him, evi
dently forgetful of the fact that be
was the one to be viewed. Here was
a time of all times this man should
have been his best—not a grinning
soldier, but a soldier, serious in look
and carriage, representing the serious
side of life. There was a “funny”
man in this same parade, the sum
total of whose business was to be
funny, but it is said that bad this
"funny” man seen the soldier, be
would have been green with jealousy
on being out-funnied by the lad in
khaki. Men, let us be men and not
monkles; let us cease being forever
the fun-maker for others. Stop, look,
listen, think. TUfe fine has come for
us as a Race to lay aside our foolish
ness, our child’s play and put our
hearts, our heads and our hands to
gether and work as one for the great
cause of freedom and for the building
up ot a down-trodden and despised
Race.
