SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1927 White ft?ks are killing each o>‘her hereabou's just like colbred folks. The undertakers have long faces on the outdid^, b'H they are mighty happy on the inside, des, they are so sorry. Colored folks have had a hard time of Thousands of them who v ent North and West are having an easier tt.ce of it. Most of them seem to bo spending all that they •make. Maiy take long trips back home do-vn South to have a good t me wit'll friends and relatives and then go back North and West again i,. make more money and to spend it in the same way. They may not save any money, bur they are piling i.p g-ood 1 oalth and may live a cor respondingly longer t me as a result it. Th*- force of habit is always uppermost Marcus Gaivey is now bemg held at the A.ianta Penitentiary, subject to the United States Immigration officials, who hold a warrant for him, under which warrant he is to be sent to Jamaica, w|'h the under standing that he wfill never again be permitted o enter any poTt of entry in he United States by water or any pln-e on the boundaries be tween tl»'s country and Canada ot Mexi.Jo. He can go> io Africa, how ever and i may be that he will elect so to do. «*»• But ev i! on the Dark Continent, t’uere is but pne country where he would no . be subject to the British oi to ‘he American influence and that is in Abyssinia. We have before emphasized the fact that even Afri ca has been parcelled out among the civilized t a’ious, so that even a na tive. “has not where to lay his head.” Certainly not with the rights of sovereign-” in a way that has been held up t- the black people of this country. Revolution against this condition of affairs must be waged from wii'hin, bv the Africans themselves. Mahat ma Gandhi in India ha» begun such i, movement. and he was imprisoned in the manner that Garvey was im prisoned He could ntot be deported for the reason tha‘ he was in his own heme, if Garvey had exercised tho foresight t° bee rae a naturalized American citizen, he could have re mained in this counCry. It may be that he pursued the wisest course in contention for i pr noiple. He has sowed deep the seed of race patriotism. It may not come to its full growth, during his day tor his generation, but it wMl come. Evidently there is something mare than vamty that has urged him on fo a envrse of sacrifice and pen ury . In Jamaica, he will find black friends. C-ther coup-tries have na tives. who have .imbued his spirit and beaome devotees of his theories He may die but his theories and •*-h«s soul will go marching on.’' Farewell. Marcus Garvey!

Best For Weak Back Are you suffering from the misery of a lame, aching back? \ou can get almost instant relief by putting on a lohnson’s Red Cross Kidney Plaster, it warms, soothes anJ supports the weak back, and gently massages tne tissues with every movement of the , body, thus helping to restore proper circulation and normal strength. John son's Red Cross Kidney Plaster brings amazingly quick results because the medication penetrates straight through the skin to the affected parts—pain goes, soreness leaves, power returns, almost immediately. And you get last ing relief, too, for the medication is 'continually absorbed as long as the plaster remains on the body. Try a Red Cross Kidney Plaster tonight andi •prove how quickly it drives away the ,misery of a weak back. , Just go to any drug store and ask (for Johnson’s, the big Red Cross Kid- i aey Plaster with the redjarmcj jack. i mm & Knocks COlD§ J —in one day, HILL'S | ^ , Cascara-Bromide -Qui- * nine tablets knock a cold.
