folks of the world, namely: Fredrick. Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison Wilmot, Harriet Beecher

CREDIT TO EVERYONE

FLINT, Michigan~
The pageant, ~Stand Up and
Live~ given Sunday afternoon by
the Excelsior Dramatic Players
with the cooperation of the Negru
Forum of the YWCA, was an unusual success and a credit to the
director, cast and everyone connected with it.

The smoothness of production as
well as the splendid portrayal of
characters was outstanding. But
even more inypressive than the
artistic development was the
theme itself, which gave an excellent idea of Negro history. The
~progress made in spite of difficulties encountered left one with a
feeling of inspiration and ~ challenge~a challenge which. all people colored and white, who are
interested in b a. better

in two days.

The Excelsior Players proved
themselves to-be exceptional performers, giving much sincerity andhonest effort to their individual

parts. The smoothness with which
the play progressed TYefiected the
tireless energy that had been de
voted to, the prodyation by every- |A

one connected with it: The show
was inspiring and entertaining to

all.
