Tii.< >ory is told of an old “dar key" who had been going on ere lit ;ii a 'dure in a certain town nil his life. He ltad never hnowr what if was to pay ras’n for anything. The credit merchant extended him credit over a year and each fall he ■me red op when bp brought hi;-' cotton in. One year he brought in five bales of cotton and the l ooks rhowed that he owed only three of them to th» 'merchant.. The mer chant paid him out the cash for the other two bales. The colored man pocketed the money and walked off. An hour or so later he came hack dressed in a brand hew suit of clothes. tfinso wnere rrui you nuy clothes?” asked the merchant. “I brought ’em fum (le cash store down de street,” replied the colored man. The merchant was dumbfounded “Do you mean to say,” said he, “that after I have trusted ’’on and carried yu on my hoks all these years, you go off to a cash and enrrv chain store to huy yourself a suit of clothes the first time you have cash to spend?” “Laws a’ massy, white folks. I . dicin' know you alts sold for cash.” Don't laugh too loud and to long at the old “darkey” for there are scores of educated white people ; i” Klizabcth C;tv im t . like him. i They come to The Independent from time to time fon*freo write ups about their affairs and the first time they have a job of printing they run off to some little print shop that has no newspaper to boost their enterprises. __ Refuses Stage Call - To Stick To Puipit Rev.
