Editor Kansas City- Squ:
As there, has. been but one "Tanso
Tea" given hero- by colored, and that
an afternoon affair, we tho members
of Clio Art Club who sent out cards
In tho form of same, deem it nec
essary and fitting to openly de
clare ourselves against tho unjust
and cruel criticism made in the col
umns of your paper by one of our
distinguished (?) guests. If there
was a vulgar exhibition upon the part
of any of the dancers, we were not
responsible and any criticism that
might be mado against the "Tango"
as danced on that day Is Infamous and
low. Any person who would attend
an ' affair given to friends and then
turn to be a Judas (na has been dis
played by the writer), is an lngrate
not worthy of tho smallest person's
attention. The one-step, which our
eloquent and distinguished (?) doctor
says is but n revival of what the
tougher element call tho "Dog Walk"
wo In our sphere of life know noth
ing about, as wo. do not mix freely
enough with the element aforesaid
mentioned and are truly surprised to
know that this, His Royal Highness,
would understand and know about a
"Dog Walk." However, it wasn't
danced on this particular afternoon.
As for our mothers, wives and sis
tors so beautifully spoken of by our
dear doctor, none were urged to at
tend and tho invitation could have
been rejected as well as accepted. The
Tango, as led and danced by Prof.
Hobbs and Mrs. Stewart on that af
ternoon Is tho most simplified one In
use for dance hall purposes. It was
brought to us by Prof. Hobbs direct
ly from Prof. DeHonoy, dancing mas
ter at the now $100,000 dance hall at
15th and Paseo. If these dances shock
us so very much an excellent thing
for our -would-be-pious young doctor,
wife, sisters and mother would be to
Btay away from such functions for
then his pride and modesty woulld
not be so mortally wounded.
Yours for publication,

past. Many events have transpired in
tlie last seven months to convince us
that wo can substantially organize
large businesses and enterprises and
maintain a high efficiency in their pro
motion. We also have learned that.wo
can enlist the sympathy of Our fairer
brother who is not altogether against
us. With this kriowledgo'-fn mind and
conscious of a ndwjjpo'wer we believe
wo aro at the threshold of a banner
year for our people. ,
THE BUSINESS LEAGUE?
Last year tho iNational Business
League held their convention in Phil
adelphia, Pa., under the happiest aus
pices. Tho reports were nation wide
and reflected accurately as possible
the conditions of our citizens in each
state. Records show that each com
munity spoke in '"terms of prosper
ity" to a very large degree What Is
mmost important at this time is that
this great organization is to hold its
next meeting in the Southwest, tho
real land of milk and honey This
could not be improved upon at all and
we dare say that Muscogee, Okla.., will
irt no wise fall below the standard of
that set by the hospitable- Quaker
City. This movement is' giving tho
Southwest an excellent opportunity to
show what metal she Is made of; It is
hard to say at this time Just how much
tone and dignity the affair will brinR. in
However, Kansas Citlans mean to play
a fine role when the curtain raises.
Y. M. C. A. Building Complete?
Here In our city wo have an array
of achievements which will keep us
busy In meeting the demands. .Chief
amoig these Is tho completion of tho
Y. M. C. A. building, which means so
much to the colored citizens of this
city. In this effort there is possibility
for tremendous good, out of which wo
expect to raise the economic as well
as moral tone of our younger citizen.
The Sun has played no small part in
these local affairs and since tho out
look is fair It is hopeful that It will bo
able In the future to not only lead, in
movements about tho city but take a
fairly conspicuous felace in events of.
national Importance.
