Publisher's Chat The July CRISIS will be the annual Educational Number, with pictures of the leading colored students. Other features will be Robert Gould Shaw and Fort Wagner, Carl Schurz and the Springarn medal. In August appears the Vacation Number. Our edition this month is 30,000. Short Talks on Advertising and Our Advertisers The many enthusiastic letters we received from our readers testified of the popularity of THE CRISIS and its recognized value as a medium of reliable information. And it is most gratifying to us gradually to build up our advertising columns until they are a source of convenience and service to our 30,000 readers. For the vacationist and sightseer traveling between eastern and southern points we present Hotel Dale at Cape May, N. J., with its elegant appointments, and the Southern Railway with its efficient service and luxurious trains. For the student we offer the Enterprise Institute at Chicago, Wilberforce and the A. & M. College of Greensboro N.C., where summer schools will be in session. Thousands of people come to New York each year with no knowledge of places to stop, and often find themselves in very undesirable surroundings. Many of our readers, when coming to New York, write us in advance for the names and addresses of first-class hostelries. This we cheerfully give at all times. With this issue of THE CRISIS we are pleased to advise our readers who plan to visit New York to communicate with the Housing Bureau of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, which will help you secure comfortable boarding and lodging places with respectable private families. Their advertisement appears on page 102. It is this diversified service which makes THE CRISIS so distinctly worth while to its host of readers. ALBON L.
