JgMWcnough bundles for ten peo9$Sr
yet there were only four of
Sf?Dr. Rail es, Deb, D: , Brown
atnd I. We rested at intervals at'
White Castle Farm, and Doman-j
gue's Farm in Michigan. These
are colored places that cater to
tourists- We ate dinner in Cana-'
da by Lake Erie and breakfast at
l'erkin Tavern in Detroit.
We stopped Sunday morning for
mass at a quaint little church. Dr.
Raines is a Catholic. The church
architecture, exterior and inferior.1
is. simply marvelous.

My Dear Mania?
Met MVS. Pullins on_ the street ]
a few nights sinc4. She has her
M. A, from Chicajfo U. School of
Music.* Her apartment in the.Rosenwald
is very V>eautiful. Mrs.
I'ullins invited me to her birthday
party in the Rosenwald. Many
musical people were there and it
was an enjoyable affair. I met
radio, -concert artists. I had the(
temerity to play not knowing my)
talented. audience...,;They called for
more so my music must not have(
been>so bad. ' ..
There is a girl here who grad-'
dated last Junv from laledega.
She is here to enter Chicago U.
I bin f:ill r?m im ine- in French. She
was in Columbia last year the
guest of Miss Verdelle Collins. Her
name is Miss Ophelia Taylor. j
I saw Miss Helen Hicks formerly.
and her husband. I saw Essie
Perry, your cousin, who lived
next door to u- while in Columbia.
I was glad to have a very nice letter
from President Stalks of Benedict
college.
-Now about l>y week-end trip:
We have just returned from St.
Paul, Rochester and Minneapolis
and other historic places in the |
middle west. Dr. Davis took ine
in grand style t<> the Grand Teriace.
Andy Kirk's orchestra was i
featured.. Ada l'.iown, Billie Adams i
and George Dvwey Washington were
the star.-. ji
At 4 a.m. I My Raines. Del>., Mr. ,
and Mi's Tate. Bill Garrett and "I ]
started to Minnesota. We stopped ,
fITTfie Wisconsin Dells a small canyon
cut by the Wisconsin river.
In Minneapolis we stopped at the]
Phyllis Wheatley. The lady in
dunce of the center is a Mrs. Sepia
Brown from Charlotte. N. C.,
former student, of Barber-Scotia.
The build is very large and modern'
in every detail." Early the next :
morning the lady served us break
fn?t in the private dining room and
made n-> charges at all for the1'
meal. She took a place at 8 a.m. j
in Minneapolis and was to eat supper
in Charlotte. N. C. at 6:00 p.!
m. with her daughter. j(
Our n tuitl trip to Chicago was
made winding up and down small

by ilii*< sermon.
The church school experienced \

a thought, from this lesson.
At 8 o'clock our local preacher ]
delivered a stro'.g spiritual mes- [
sage: "The Church of our aviour t
Jesus Christ" constituted the sub- \
ject of his discourse and was tak- !
(ii from the- 10th chapter of St|
Matt, and at the 18th vers*. The ,
hearts of hi^ hearers were made h
triad as he so forcibly unfolded]
the beautiful story of the great]
church of Jesus Christ. v Greater
things are in store for him. He
is taking advantage of the things
ot hand, to fit himself for- a larger,
field of usefulness in the mini-try.
His sermon was much enjoyed
by all.
>' ling an injured leg. After being
dismis.-cd from the hospital she
has been confined to the bed at her
home, 1100 Colonial Drive, for
several weeks. Now she is able
to be up but not stirring.
The very fact that she is able
to be out of bed gives her friends
some consolation and the -belief
that she is really improving.
It is hoped that) she will continue
to improve and will soon be
up and about again. 1

on agrarian i>roblems. and a specialist
in the field of Southern land
questions. Since more than fifty
per cent of the American Negro!

j t he Negro people of the entire
, country. i

sharecroppers are facing a despe-l
rate situation. Wifh the TripTeT^
