Why Not Tell The Truth?
Some of the complaints of noth-
ern negroes were given an airing in
New York on Thursday night last at
a meeting of the local branch of the
National Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People.
The speakers included the in
evitable Professor W. E. B. DuBois,
who said that the “Closing of the
hotels and places of amusement to
colored people” should be "contested"
Another speaker, who in the New
York Times’ report is listed as Dr.
Springham, made the following re
markable assertion: "We in the
North suffer from the interference of
the South. It is the Southerners—
women generally, but sometimes
men—who have forced on Northern
hotels their ideas. It is through the
Southern chivalry that it can hap
pen that so far away as Switzerland
somebody, who happens to be the
niece or the cousin, is forced to leave
a hotel because a Southern lady
objects to her presence"
We have heard of the “habit of
command” which the old slavery
institution is supposed to have 2 de
veloped among Southerners of the
wealthier class, but it is somewhat
surprising to learn that the quality
is so alive and vigorous in the trav-
ling Southerner of our time that he
can dominate the hotels of the
world singlehanded and at a word.
Not one out of a hundred of the
patrons of the average Northern
hotel is Southern or of Southern birth
and to imagine that so small an ele
ment could force hotel managements
to draw the color line against their
own wishes and contrary to public
sentiment is to be guilty of the ver
iest nonsense. Northern negroes
and their friends make this ridicu
lous charge for two reasons. They
hope to forward their purposes by
stirring up old sectional prejudices
and they have learned that it is bad
policy to complain directly of the
Northern masses because of dis
criminations against the blacks.
Like certain white Northern editors,
they know of good reasons either for
ignoring the “problem” at thier doors
or for falsely attributing its existence
to Southern influence.
If Northern hotel clerks turn away
even such educated and light-col
ored persons as Booker Washington
and Proffesor DuBois with the dis
ingenuous announcemeno that the
house is “full” and then proceed to
assign rooms to later applicants of
the White race, it is for a more im
portant reason than that in the dis
tent South the color line is frankly
drawn and that some lone South
erner may turn up a day or two
and protest. —Macon Telegraph.

The Charm of Perfume
By J. H. Olbert.
If There are few histories in existence
that do not somewhere note the use of
perfume by a people, aud there is none
of our best literature that does not hint
at the subtle influence that women of
power have wielded by the use of delicate
perfumes that gave an individuality to
their persons.
A lovely and refined woman surround
ed by a light flower scent, ever suggests
a vision of spring and sunshine, especial
ly in winter, even without seeing them
we feel the presence of the little flower elves,
they nestle in the graceful folds of her gown; play
in the soft waves of her hair; fly over her delicate
hands and kiss her smiling lips; they play hide
and seek over hqr note paper and convey fragrant
greetings to her friend or sweetheart; even in my
lady’s handkerchief they leave a brave and fra
grant war against her bitter enemy, the fatal
bacillus.
Tf And the same little charitable spirits waft
through the sick chamber bring relief and comfort
to the patient; purifying the air and also by magic
picturing to his mind pleasant reminescences of
sunshine and blooming nature.
The most artistic creation of the perfume art is
J. Blocki & Son’s “Flower in the Bottle’’ Empress
Line, and is sold at “The Leader” Hamrick’s, who
would be pleased to have you call and sample this
this most exclusive line.
