She was crying about that boy and the idea of his wife coming into her house. Guests arrived. A first class white caterer, an orchestra of six pieces, the royallest affair ever pulled off in Washington by colored, newspaper men. Even tbirty-six guests. Belle hid the bottle as she was in fear Lottie would spoil everything.

Everything went off fine until the photographer took the picture of the. bride and groom. Lottie turned and look right into the boy's face with a smile. What that picture would look like worried Belle. After the supper dancing was in order.

Lottie begged. to be excused for a few minutes until she went to her rom. Belle suspected something and tried to watch her but she beat her at that.

DELTA SIGMA THETA DATA -Nu Sigma chapter of Delta Sigma Theta sorority were hosts on last Saturday evening to the combined chapters of the city, welcoming home, sorors Pauline Slater, western regional director and Miriam Mathews, national chairman' of standards, who have Just returned from the 12th biennial conference of the sorority which, convened at Chicago from August' 27 to 31, Inclusive with Lambda chapter of that city entertaining. Both of these well known and accomplished Angelenos were very popular delegates at the Chicago convention and were vigilantly alert and active in helping to shape a more constructive program for their sorority. They came back intensely inspired and "fraught vivid and stirring details of the conference happenings to their sisters here. Of especial interest was their account of the opening and public meeting, addressed by Oceola Adams, charter Delta of Washington, D.

C. and lecturer, who told in glowing, but with modest effect how Delta Sigma Theta, the pioneer Negro sorority, blazed the first trails for fraternal uplift and expansion among college women. On this program were other celebrities such as Alice Dunbar Nelson, honorary Delta having' no peer on the lecture floor, 'who made an urgent appeal to all Negro women to he. very ready with the helping hand of guidance to our great stream of Negro youth pouring out of our college halls seeking employment 1 and encouragement. Maud Roberts George brought greetings from Chicago citizenry at large and the Chicago mayor's representatives salutations were accompanied by a check for $50 for the Delta scholarship fund.

The conference artist's recital was held at the magnificent and historic Michigan blvd. Art Institute to which Chicago's eite were formally invited to hear such Delta artists as Shirley Graham, reader and composer of the new and successful opera Tom Tom; Florence Cole Talbert McCleave, world renowned prima-dona and Netta Paullyn Garner pianiste and accompaniste to her famous husband, George Garner, internationally known tenor. The delegates felt that the climaxing event of the meet was held on the closing night when almost three hundred beautifully gowned sorors banqueted in gala fashion in the 39th floor festival hall of the Chicago Civic Opera house overlooking the city and the many hued and brilliantly lighted Century of Progress World's Fair. Here the sorors took leave off and received the parting admonitions of their leaders and honorary sorors Sarah F. Waring.

tersi Just say thev ere all Under low black Clouds Drizzling rain dropped from the IT WORTH OUR WHILE?" You small group of learned persons have often wondered, I know, in your periods of deep meditation, if the Negro will always be 'confronted in his endeavors by opposition or prejudice from opposite races. And, haven't you often tried to imagine the level on which the Negro of future generations will be placed? Or, whether they too, will often experience periods of depression during their strivings toward some definite achievement, and dejectedly lament, Is it worth our while? Any true Negro scholar pursues the paths set aside for his particular career with- a tremendous amount of self-sacrifice. And, the average Negro Is least aware of this serious fact. The Negro scholar should expect, if he does not, to meet repulse discouragement, misrepresentation, reluctant recognition, and these, by no means, come alone from the Anglo-Saxon. These, appalling foes are more often than not from his own race.

Opposition which comes from a superior Intellect can be tolerated and overcome more easily than opposition which comes from the very, very, inferior intellect which breeds only ignorance, coarseness, rashness and malice. All of the scholar's self-control will be called forth to meet, and it possible overcome, the forge of intimidation which tries to brush aside superior knowledge and breeding as so much useless paraphernalia. He will he required to employ all of his logic i-m -t- age-old opinions that the has no time for scholarship or culture, biit must employ sll of his time and what innate and undeveloped intelligence he already possesses in the attainment and cultivation of land. Land! Is there any prestige in being an untrained farmer? He is told that his acquired lea has little mercenary value, doesnt's the cook, the carpen' the chauffeuri derive greater sums from the employment of their ordinary knowledge, and which costs them far less than his These facts, although very obviously depressing, are to be faced by Negro scholars during some period of their life. And when it does they will inevitably think, Is it worth our while 'Is the reward in the end worth the struggle amidst stolid indiffrrrnce, absolute contempt, and often opi.n hostility among members of my own race, for whom after all I am trying to place on a higher realm of recognition through cultural achievements? But, this struggle to combat opposition is worth the effort.

The Negro, to achieve anything must pull away from envy and ignorance of his race. If his path ot attainment requires that he tread it alone, then he must. He can, and yet he cannot blame his race for its unappreciative regard of success of its members, 'there is a reason for the lack; a -historical and very deeply rooted one. requiring extensive expound-itinn. Any acquirement above the common level of human existence is well worth the mail minute bit of the struggle.

To successfully overcome opposition of any nature indicates very clearly the stuff of which you are made. Someorie has said of suffering that which can be truly applied to the question of whether it is worthwhile to continue contenting forces which occur during scholastic strifes: Through suffering we gain strength and the high ground of vision. Suffering tries men and reveals them to themselves. Thru it we come into a realization of our possibilities. It recreates, and from its furnace wc rise able ready and reborn.

INSURANCE FIRE The old testament for the most part is an admixture of Jewish poetry, anecdotes and. stories and when one understands that it was never intended for anything else, they find it interesting reading, but if, says Paine, the obscene stories, voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and tortuous executions are attributed to God's direction, no Intelligent man can help hut feel shame at calling such paltry stories the word of God.

The word "prophet" at that time was a word meaning "poet" and this word, like hundreds of others, has been given a NEW meaning in later years. Human language is local and changeable, and is therefore incapable of being used as the means of unchangeable and universal information. Paine cites as an example an account given in the book of Samuel where Saul met a company of prophets (who were in truth company of poets and musicians) they came with a psaltery-a tabret and a pipe ar.d Jhey prophesied and he prophesied with 'them! Furthermore says Paine: we are told of the greater and lesser prophets They might as well tell us of the greater and lesser God; for there CANNOT BE DECRF.F9 I SENSE.
