Finding Men Her Job And in the last five years, 3,000 »; wanderers have piped up “Here” when she has called their names. ‘That's her job—finding missing men.

These sailors cling td that. Love, indeed, is what makes the Port of Missing Men a churned up place. Somebody—a mother, father, sister, brother, or sweetheart—has lost track of a wandering boy. And Mrs. Roper, with requests from all over the world, gets her lines out and drags him in. “Next of Kin” to Many For her services, but more usually for her friendship, many sailors have “next of kin,” and one such “son,” dying in a hospital, was a colored boy. Mrs. Roper, the widow of a clergy- man who joined her in her work among sailors, has been with the lo- cal Church Institute singe it took over its present headqparters 12 years ago. Before then the Institute was a floating barage. Trained to meet any emergency, the house mother has encountered odd sides of her multitudinous wards. Recently a seaman handed her $18 with a request that a notice be posted for one Pat Breen. “I stuck a gun in his ribs a week ago and took his roll,” explained the seaman. “But I don’t enjoy the kale.

Race Pride Helping “Line by line, increasing knowledge and pride of race are forever erasing these records of folk-thought.” Dr. Puckett made a special study of voodooism and for some time be- came a voodoo doctor in New Orleans as one means of obtaining data for his book. ‘Research was made into all published sources of African and American negro lore.
