If all men unde: stood and were as fair as President Truman
then the - w eU ••- : he fid r. .-called ace problem. In fact th •
Negro has neve: had any problem. 11 only wants what .other citi

didn’t want or ask N r anything it would still be a problem oi

CLEANLINESS
Keep your hair clean if you
would have it beautiful. When your
s hair begins to look the least bit
dingy, wash it with a carefully se
; levied shampoo. Hard water will
make* most soaps ineffective and
leaves a dull film on the hair. So
it's best to choose a soft water
•rente shampoo which gives you
i cleanliness and a lovely sheen even
in the hardest water. Os course, a
daily ritual of brushing helps keep
tresses clean between shampoos
