Much of the feeling between the
races could be avoided if there was
just a little more understanding be-
teween them This has. been put in
such an appropriate way by Editor
Dabney of the Cincinnati Union, that
it compels reproduction:
Let us remember, that while justice
loving white citizens are trying to
lessen the prejudice against colored
people, justice loving colored people
should be trying to lessen the preju
dice against white people.
Some of us make a specialty of
abusing everything “white," while at
the same time benefiting by the
bounty of those we condemn. Let us
remember, that the white people here
can at present get on very nicely with
out us, but that we cannot get on BETHEL CHURCH NOTES

Paris, this season, has been busy
glorifying the tweed frock. In a fas
cinating array of combinations and
novelty weaves, the tweed frock has
had its skirt flared and its waistline
raised, and sent forth to dominate the
informal daytime mode. The frock
illustrated above is a smart example
of tweed in the new tailored coat
effect. The cleverly cut front may
iap and button either from left or
right. Long, snug-fitting sleeves are
open to cuff length at the hack and
close with linked buttons. The trim
ming band may be contrasting; very
smart if of satin.
