THE BROAD AX Luther McCarty, The Aspirant For the Heavyweight Cham pionship of the World The White Hope SENT TO HIS GRAVE BY ONE BLOW FROM THE FIST OF ARTHUR PELKEY AT CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA. THE SUDDEN DEATH OF McCARTY IS FURTHER PROOF THAT IN THE VERY NATURE OF THINGS PRIZE FIGHTING IS BRUTAL AND DOWNRIGHT SAVAGERY. THEREFORE AN END SHOULD BE PUT TO IT THROUGHOUT THE CIVILIZED WORLD. Vol. XVIII. Luther McCarthy The Aspira Heavyweight pionship The W SENT TO HIS GRAVE BY ONE BY PELKEY AT CALGAR THE SUDDEN DEATH OF McCARTY VERY NATURE OF THINGS IN DOWNRIGHT SAVAGERY. THEREFORE AN END SHOULD BE CIVILIZED Poor Luther McCarty, who had been hailed as the heavyweight prize fighting champion of the world, the great "White Hope" by all the dead-game and the tin-horn sports throughout this country, who was a whirlwind fighter, but for some cause or other the die was cast and the fates had long ago decided against him for his prize fighting career came to a sad and sudden end in the ring last Saturday at Calgary, Alberta, Canada, for he was knocked out and killed in the first round by Arthur Pelkey. Just before McCarty walked right square into the jaws of death, some kind of a minister of the gospel appeared in the ring and in the midst of the thousands of gentlemen present declared that prize fighting was pleasing in the sight of his God," then the two entered the ring, warmly-shaking hands, at the same time being photographed; then they sparred cautiously for an opening; in doing so they had several sharp mixups, but they did not amount to much. Finally Pelkey jabbed McCarty a very stiff blow on the jaw which caused him to reel and stagger, but being game to the last he smiled just the same. Not long after that they engaged in a fierce encounter, they clinched, and before anyone had time to count one, two, three, McCarty received his final or fatal knockout blow. Referee Ed RABBI JOSEPH KRAUSKOPP OF PHILADELPHIA, PA., IMPARTED SOUND AND LASTING ADVICE TO THE AFRO-AMERICANS. Recently Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf delivered a most eloquent address in Philadelphia, Pa., and in it he referred to the remarkable advancement of the Afro-American race and at the same time imparting much sound advice to its members. He spoke in part as follows: "The root of the whole trouble is in the White man's brains and not in the Black man's skin, he declared. Even the prejudice against the jews still exists in Philadelphia, because there are schools where Jewish children are not received. "As that statute, wrought by Negro hand, at the Atlanta Exposition in 1895 told so pathetically, his chains are broken but they are not yet off. He is still obliged to drag the clanking irons wherever he goes. Wherever he turns the door is closed in his face. 'And yet, notwithstanding such barriers and discouragements, the braver among them seized upon the scantiest opportunity afforded with an avidity that was marvelous and raised themselves step by step to heights that are astounding, considering the limitations of time and privilege and just forty-eight years ago a slave people, the property of White masters, bought and kept and sold like cattle, credited with neither mind nor soul, not a Negro school anywhere within the confines of slavery, to-day 25,000 Negro teachers instruct a million and a quarter Negro children in 25,000 Negro schools. Five thousand Negro preachers occupy Christian pulpits. Hundreds of Negroes plead at the bar and minister to the sick. Some of them administer justice from the bench. Their voice is heard in legislative halls: their HEW TO THE LINE; LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY Smith, the sporting editor for the Chicago American, rushed up and separated the fighters. At that moment McCarty was standing near his corner and Pelkey was eyeing him closely and was standing near the center of the ring. Both of them then squared off in real pugilistic attitude, neither seeming to be the worse for the clinch and their fierce combat. Suddenly McCarty was seen to double up in a crouching attitude. To the spectators it looked as if his crouch simply was a fighting pose. He crouched lower and lower, however, his eyes rolling, then he collapsed and fell full length on the floor of the ring, dead as a door nail. McCarty "Takes the Count." The referee, assuming that McCarty had been knocked out, stood over him to count off the fatal seconds. The count of ten being made, the referee held up the hand of Pelkey to indicate that he had been declared winner. After it was all over and its sad ending for McCarty, it was evident that the preacher was lying on his God and that prize fighting was not pleasing to his sight. The sudden death of McCarty is further proof that in the very nature of things prize fighting at the very best is brutal and downright savagery, therefore a sudden end should be put to it throughout the civilized world. eloquence resounds from the lecture platform; the magazines publish their writings; the press spreads broadcast their books. Dunbar, the post; Tanner and Carpenter, the painters; Edmonia Lewis, the sculpture, are Negroes. Harvard's valedictorians count a Negro. Many of our sweetest native songs are of Negro composition. "The remarkable advance the Negro has made, despite every discouragement, goes far to prove that under like opportunity, and after a due lapse of time he will compare favorably with his White brother. He is in possession of every faculty assuring this. He is by nature of a kindly disposition, affectionate and loyal. He is eager for education, makes great sacrifices for it (two Colored lads recently walked 500 miles to Tuskegee to get an industrial education) and his progress is surprising. The heights to which the few who have had some opportunity have raised themselves are prophecies of what the many will do, once the White man shall lay aside the old notion of master and slave, and take up that of human brotherhood, regardless of race, creed or color." Sheriff Michael Zimmer made a plain and very sensible talk before the members of the Standard Literary Society of Bethesda Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon. He was well received and it was very much to be regretted that such a small audience heard his manly and straightforward talk. Congressman James McAndrews spent a few days of the latter part of last week and the first part of this week in this city. Tuesday evening he returned to his duties at Washington, D.C.

THE YOUNG MEN'S DEMOCRATIC CLUB OF THE CITY OF YONKERS, NEW YORK. Pass Resolutions Indorsing Governor William Sulzer's State-Wide Direct Primary Campaign. The following letter and resolutions were lately forwarded to Governor William Sulzer by the Young Men's Democratic Club of Yonkers, New York, indorsing his state-wide campaign for direct primaries: Hon Wm Sulzer Whereas, The excuses and explanations being made by the opponents of the Sulzer bill are that it would destroy the democratic party, and place in the hands of the congested sections of this state the entire nominating power of the democratic voters; and Whereas, These excuses and explanations are not tenable and are against the expressed principles enunciated by Thomas Jefferson in reply to Alexander Hamilton's statements that the people were not fit to govern themselves, when he said: "I believe in keeping the government close to the Dear Sir: At a meeting of the Young Men's Democratic Club held May 23rd a resolution was adopted, a copy of which is enclosed endorsing your Direct Primary Bill. Your stand in this fight for the people and against the forces of "The Invisible Government" has met with the hearty approval of the rank and file of the people of this community. There is no doubt that in the end you will be triumphant and save thereby the honor of the democratic party. The members of this club have pledged themselves to work for the passage of your bill and from now until the extra session convenes will do all in their power to aid you in enacting this bill into law. Whereas, The Democratic party through its agents, the delegates to the state convention at Syracuse, made an express contract with the voters of the state of New York to place on the statute books of this commonwealth a real state-wide direct primary law; and Whereas, Because of this contract, the people of the State of New York fulfilled their part of the agreement by returning the democratic party to power in this state; and Whereas, The chosen representatives of the people and the democratic party with a clear majority in the assembly and senate of this state repudiated their written promise and placed a blot on the escutcheon of the party of Jefferson and Jackson in this state by endeavoring to enact into law a makeshift direct primary bill which was vetoed by the democratic governor of this state; and Whereas, The democratic governor of this state drafted a bill which kept the solemn pledge of the democratic party and provided for a real direct primary law; and Whereas, This bill which was drafted by the governor was voted down in the assembly and senate of this state, and among those who voted it down being the democratic assemblyman from this 1st Assembly District of Westchester; and Executive Chambers. Resolution: R. MARSHALL. Illinois National Guards, and one of the Progressive Life Insurance Company. Whereas, The excuses and explanations being made by the opponents of the Sulzer bill are that it would destroy the democratic party, and place in the hands of the congested sections of this state the entire nominating power of the democratic voters; and Whereas, These excuses and explanations are not tenable and are against the expressed principles enunciated by Thomas Jefferson in reply to Alexander Hamilton's statements that the people were not fit to govern themselves, when he said: "I believe in keeping the government as close to the people as possible;" and Whereas, The wisdom of Jefferson finds expression in these United States which comprise the greatest government ever erected on this earth, and so controverss the fears of Hamilton that recently three-fourths of the states of the Union voted in favor of amending the constitution of the United States so that hereafter the national senators will be elected by popular vote; and Whereas, the excuses and explanations of the opponents of the Sulzer bill are an indictment of the people's ability to rule; and Whereas, The governor of this state has called the legislature into extra session to take up the question of his bill in a second endeavor to make his democratic colleagues keep the faith," therefore be it Resolved, That Governor Sulzer's fight to save the honor and keep intact the democratic party be and hereby is endorsed, and that the members of this club do all in their power to enact into law a bill which carries with it the fair name of the democratic party of this state; and be it further Resolved, That Tracy P. Madden, the democratic assemblyman, be and hereby is called upon to keep his pledge to the people made at the meetings held under the auspices of this club in his pre-election campaign voting for the Sulzer bill and thereby aiding the democratic party to validate its express contract made by it in convention assembled at Syracuse.

Green, Supreme Chancellor, was ejected from a sleeping car at Milton, Fla., by a mob of White men numbering eighteen. The sheriff of the county hearing of probable trouble had one of his deputies at the station to protect him from injury, and instead of the mob getting him the deputy took him in charge, kept him in jail over night for safe keeping. The next morning he was tried for violating the Jim Crow Car Law and fined twenty-five dollars. At eleven o'clock the sheriff put him on a boat dressed in overalls to deceive the mob, and he was sent on to Pensacola, where he was met by his Pythian brothers and taken care of. He arrived here tonight, safe, well and sound, suffering no bodily injury whatever. The whole country was stirred up over the report that he had been lynched and when he arrived home he found hundreds of friends at his residence to greet and congratulate him.

Aurora, Ill—Mrs. Rollo Lincoln startled Judge Slusser in the circuit court last week. The judge asked her how long she had been married. She said twelve years. "How many children?" asked the judge. "Seventeen," she replied. The judge mopped his brow. Mrs. Lincoln explained there were five sets of twins. That's why her husband deserted her. Mrs. Lincoln, who looks to be not over 20, sued Rollo Lincoln for divorce and got her decree. Mrs. Lincoln is all right and she is just the lady to assist to settle up the country or to fill it full of children. —Editor. THE BROAD AX PUBLISHED WEEKLY.

HEALTH NOTES Laboratory experiments conducted by able and painstaking men of science have shown beyond any doubt that house flies convey the germs of disease and that they distribute these germs wherever they go, so don't tolerate flies in your home. Have all doors and windows carefully screened and kill every fly that makes its appearance about the place. These early Spring flies that have survived the winter are the mother flies, and though few in number now, will be responsible for the millions that will come this summer. So kill the first ones now and save trouble and annoyance later on. The city of Cleveland has already started a vigorous campaign of destruction against the dirty, dangerous house fly. One business firm alone has donated 300,000 fly swatters to be given to the children, and nearly every householder has fly traps on his premises and everybody is co-operating in the work of making Cleveland a flyless city. *** All industrial dusts are dangerous to those who are compelled to work in them. There are three ways in which workers may be protected from these dangerous dusts that impair their health and shorten their lives. First, in most trades, wet instead of dry processes may be used to keep down the dust; second, fans and suction pipes can be used to draw the dust away from the workers and out of the room altogether; third, the workmen can wear respirators which will prevent most of the dust from getting into their lungs. But the best way to prevent dust is not to have any; and this means that all known processes must be used to prevent the making of dust, and if made at all, to remove it from the work rooms as fast as made before it can come in contact with the workers. Next to dust as affecting the health of industrial workers are gases and fumes of many kinds in many of the trades and callings and which are all harmful to those who are exposed to them for any considerable length of time. Therefore it follows that all gases and fumes should be kept out of work rooms. The lungs, as may be readily understood, are intended to breathe air, not dust, dirt nor chemical gases of any kind. Gases and acid fumes may not cause any special disease, but they do injure the delicate lining of the breathing tract and thus set up conditions that render the workers susceptible to catarrah, bronchitis and other dirty air diseases. In all work places where gases and fumes are made they should be taken care of by strong suction fans to carry them away where they can do no harm. And all that we have been talking about means but one thing, and that is good fresh air for those who toil in shop, store or factory. Employers of labor should not overlook this one important factor as affecting both the health and the efficiency of their employees. Money spent for a good air supply pays big returns on the investment. SPORTING NEWS NOTES In the interclass meet held at Provise High school the Juniors won with 41. Seniors were second with 34.

JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS TO LEAD THE DEMOCRATS IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE. Washington, D. C., May 29.—Senator James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois was elected assistant Democratic leader of the senate today, with the duties of a parliamentary whip. He was the unanimous choice of the caucus of Democratic senators. Long ago it was prophesied that the advent of him would upset senatorial traditions and cause a number of the oldest inhabitants of the "greatest deliberative body in the world" to tingle with new sensations. Well, so it has, so it has. The senate never had a whip before in all the 124 years of its history and never before was a fledging senator elected to anything. Points Out Grave Symptoms. Col. Lewis had not been in the senate six weeks before he discovered all was not well with the state of the nation, that the Democratic party in the senate did not appear to be getting anywhere. It was encountering opposition, was slipping down hill on its legislative program, and was failing to get confirmation of sundry appointments of lifelong Democrats. The senator declared the whole Democratic machine antiquated and urged the adoption of up to date methods. He proposed more team work, particularly on the confirmations, and suggested the creation of a whip to take charge of the operations. Senator Thomas of Colorado carried the suggestion to President Wilson, by whom it was approved. Then in the Democratic caucus Senator Lewis outlined more fully his plan of solidifying the majority forces and bowling over Republican obstruction of legislation and confirmations.

"What shall I do to be saved?" was the question propounded as a text by the Rev. N. J. McCracken, D. D., the popular and eloquent Presiding Elder of the Cairo District, who preached at the Institutional Church Sunday morning. Dr. McCracken's sermon was replete in historic citations and forcefully delivered. He dealt with national and racial salvation as well as with the salvation of individuals, and pointed out many things which we as a race must do in order to be saved through the forceful conflict which now is on. At the evening service the pastor preached another of his interesting sermons on "The Parables," using this time the parable of the "Unmereful Servant" and setting forth "The Law of the Kingdom in the Matter of Forgiveness."

Callis, D. D., Pastor. Rev. Callis' sermon on last Sunday at 11 A. M. was one of his masterpieces, "Drinking the Living Water". Among other things he said that only a true child of God could receive the Living Water; and that no one could be a true child of God who did not have faith in himself to overcome the world. The Lord Jesus does not give Living Water to any who have not overcoming faith: "But whosoever shall drink of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst, the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into eternal life". It was one of those sermons that went straight home to every one, any one who wants to grow in grace should hear Rev. Callis' Sunday morning sermons. His sermons in the evening are good, but Sunday morning they seem to be better. Our Children's Day and June Rally will be on the 8th of June. It is to be a very interesting day with us.

Callis will deliver the seventh in the series of sermons on "God's Message to Men". Subject: "The Message in Human Character". Mesdames Alice H.

Be sure and see the Pageant at the Auditorium. REV. W. SAMPSON BROOKS HAS PREEED ST. PAUL'S A. M. E. CHURCH, ST. LOUIS, MO., OF A LONG STANDING DEBT. About three years ago Rev. W. Sampson Brooks who was at one time Pastor of St. Stephen's church, this city, was transferred from St. John A. M. E. church, Nashville, Tenn., to St. Paul's A. M. E. church, St. Louis, Mo., and at the time of assuming charge of it, it was heavily in debt and last week it celebrated its 71st anniversary with a financial rally at which the members of the congregation raised $7,000 and made the last payment on the mortgage indebtedness of the present church structure which was erected in 1890 by Rev. E. T. Cottman at a cost of $77,000. During the past year $12,000 of that sum was raised and paid off by Rev. Brooks, who burned the mortgage to the great delight of more than fifteen hundred members who participated in the last grand rally and freed their church from debt. Rev. Brooks is a top-notcher when it comes to raising money for church purposes. CHIPS S. A. T. Watkins, assistant corporation counsel of Chicago, is an active candidate for assistant attorney-general of the United States. Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Hart of 67 E. 36th Street, celebrated quietly at home with just their family circle the 44th anniversary of their marriage. Dr. MacEnry J. Brown, 3502 South State St., is beginning to limit his practice to diseases of the eye and ear, and he is, without the least doubt, an expert oculist. Mr. Thomas Boger, well known in Aurora and Chicago circles, will on June 10th have conferred upon him the title of M. D. He graduated from Northwestern U. Medical School. All girls that are in the second year of high school can take the normal examination which occurs sometime in June. Dr. George C. Hall, 3102 State St., is more than likely to attend the meeting of the National Negro Business League in Philadelphia, Pa., the latter part of this coming August. Mr. and Mrs. S. A. T. Watkins contemplate attending the closing exercises of Wilberforce University, which school their son has been attending for the past year. Miss Maria Jones of Cincinnati, Ohio, will on the 4th of June be wedded to Dr. Henry C. Bryant of Birmingham, Ala., but spent five years in Chicago as a student of Northwestern University, and one year interne of Provident Hospital. Jesse Binga, the successful banker and real estate broker, corner State and 36th place, has been spending a little of his leisure time in resting up at West Baden and enjoying its warm baths. He liked it so well that Mrs. Binga and her sister, Mrs. Louisiana Ray, have been following suit. William H. Clark, one of the important attaches of the election commissioners' office, and an old line wheel horse of the Afro-American democracy in this city, is more than likely to receive favorable consideration at the hands of President Wilson in the way of a federal appointment. The American Life Insurance Company of Illinois have removed their office from 74 W.

SCHOOL YEAR AT TUSKEGEE ENDS LIST OF TOPICS DISCUSSED. Thirty-second Commencement Exercises of Noted Southern Industrial Institution Affords Opportunity For Personal Contact With Faculty and Students—Many Diploma Awarded. By CLEMENT RICHARDSON. Tuskegee, Ala.-With an eloquent commencement sermon by Dr. John E. White of Atlanta and a stirring commencement address by Dr. Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, Tuskegee institute closed its thirty-second commencement exercises Thursday, May 29. As usual, special trainloads of visitors, both white and colored, came in from Montgomery, Opelika and Birmingham, Ala., while through the country an endless caravan of wagons, buggies, horsemen and people afoot raced with sunrise in getting on the Tuskegee grounds and "fixed" before the exercises began. For a decade or so Tuskegee institute has followed the scheme of illustrating its students' commencement speeches with some phase of the work the speaker has done in his trade. As the school has about forty industries, nice picking is required in order to get around or to get the trade at which the student can work and talk or, rather, speak at the same time. An- 1930 MISS LILLA WASHINGTON. other problem is to select topics which, while they may show to the audience what the student can do, will have for their main purpose to instruct many of the visitors who come in from the cities and rural districts. With this in view subjects of the kind following were discussed and illustrated by the students: Lilla Washington, niece of Principal Washington, graduating as a milliner and from the teachers' professional course, showed how the various branches could be taught by means of common material. Choosing corn as her material, she illustrated how this common product, suitable for use in city or country, could be made the basis of computation in arithmetic, subject matter for lessons in grammar, geography and reading and spelling, showing at the same time the student acquiring at first hand knowledge of the growth and growing of corn and its many hybrids. Jundus Kitchens, a young man graduating from the truck garden division, discussed and illustrated "Diversified Trucking," showing by use of the calendar and study of weather and soil how the farmer or trucker of the south could keep one crop in the ground and another on the market all the year round. Of equally instructive value to the farmers was the speech of William Burke on the "Economic Production of Pork." By actually dipping a pig and smoking meat on the stage, this young man demonstrated to the audience how to raise pork on a paying basis in the southland. As he told how much and what feeds to give the animal to produce a good animal, to produce a good ham and a good "middling," the farmers sat up and took notice, as the saying goes, for they were discovering new methods whereby plig raising in the south could be done on a paying basis. Of decided interest to the women folk in the audience was the planning of a four room cottage by two girl graduates, Nancy L. Thomas and Ethel Story, the former a graduate in cooking, and the latter in upholstering and handicrafts. With four rooms stationed on the platform, the first young lady showed how a spot should be selected on which to build a cottage, what surroundings it should have, how the rooms should be situated and how the furniture and utensils should be placed in the dining room and kitchen. Her share in the cottage was brought to a close by announcing a menu, setting a table and cooking and serving a meal. Miss Story followed with the decoration and care of the rooms. She illustrated how to cover the walls inexpensively with burlap, this burlap being ordinary crocus sack dyed to suit the purpose, how to make inexpensive but attractive and durable rugs, how to renovate the mattress and how to choose and hang pictures. Neither were the mechanical trades omitted. Tacitus Gallillard, a brick mason by trade, the salutatorian, gave interesting statistics on "The Demand For Architect and Builder." Philip Laland, a carpenter, constructed and hung a door, while the valedictorian closed with "The Progress of the Negro Mechanic During the Last Fifty Years." All told, about 200 certificates and diplomas were given out, covering nearly every trade taught in the institution. Phelps Hall Bible Training School.

The effort is rich in promise and will in time yield splendid results GAINS SUCCESS IN NEW STATE GRADUATED WITH HONORS. Young Practitioner After Few Years' Residence In Arkansas Decides to Make Wagoner His Permanent Home. Mississippiians In Oklahoma Are Among the Most Thrifty Citizens. Wagoner, Okla.—Mississippi has reason to be proud of the record of her sons who have within recent years taken up residence in Oklahoma. They have sought new homes in a new and strange territory. Everywhere the thrifty farmer, with years of experience in the cultivation of cotton, corn and other products back in Mississippi, can be found here. Numbers of those who are engaged in agricultural pursuits, as well as ROBERT W. SMITH, M. D. those who follow the professions, own their homes. The Mississippiian in Oklahoma is making a good record in commercial life. The various business enterprises are operated with skill and strict economy in buying, which enables the merchants to measure arms with the most shrewd competitors. In the professions there are physicians, lawyers, educators and architects of wide experience. Here in Wagoner a number of Mississippiians coming from various localities have located. As elsewhere in the state, the Mississippiian is found actively engaged in almost every field of life's pursuit. At the head of the professionally employed easily stands Dr. Robert W. Smith, a product of the garden spot of his native state, Natchez, where he was born thirty-nine years ago. Dr. Smith's parents were among the best known people in Natchez, and some of his forbears held high political offices with credit and ability for years. His early education was acquired in the public schools of Natchez, and these schools have always been conducted on a high and thorough basis. In 1899, his father having died, his mother moved to St. Joseph, La., where she afterward married Mr Samuel Andrews. In 1890 Dr. Smith entered the Alcorn (Miss.) Agricultural and Mechanical college, graduating with honors in the class of 1897 with the degree of bachelor of arts. During his college days he had opportunity of gaining considerable skill in the use of tools in the carpentry, blacksmithing, shoemaking and other industrial departments of Alcorn college, and through his energy and determination he was able to materially lessen the total expense of his training upon his parents. Leaving Alcorn in June, 1897, he entered Meharry Medical school at Nashville, Tenn., in the fall and began a course in medicine. This course he finished in 1900, and, backed by his diploma and an overabundant supply of nerve and pluck rather than riches, he began the practice of his profession in the spring of 1900 at Lake Village, Ark. Dr. Smith met with great success in Arkansas, but after three years Oklahoma began to claim his attention, and so it was in 1903 that he finally made up his mind to try his fortune in the new state and subsequently settled here in Wagoner. Here he has had success almost from the start, and this he has accomplished by sticking close to his professional duties and his ability to win and preserve friendships among all classes of people. He is interested in every good movement for the uplift of his race, being an officer in a number of secret organizations and also an active member of the A. M. E. church. Dr. Robert W. Smith, on account of his expert ability in difficult and dangerous cases, has the esteem and respect not alone of his fellow Negro physicians, but also the white practitioners of his community. The doctor has a large practice which demands his services not only locally, but at neighboring cities and throughout the country surrounding Wagoner. He resides in a beautiful, well kept home, with Mrs. Smith and his mother. New Members of Kern Valley Lodge. Kern Valley lodge, Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, Bakersfield, Cal. recently added five new members to its roll at a largely attended meeting. Most Noble Grand Master Rev. J. W. Price conducted the initiatory ceremony. The new members are R. S. Houston, A. T. Jones, S. E. Dyson, Roy Jones and Jacob Bickers. HAMPTON'S GOOD WORK. Annual Report of Principal Frissell Shows School's Achievements The annual report of Hampton institute, being the forty-ninth since the founding of the school, has been prepared, printed and distributed by the principal, Dr. Hollis B. Frissell. The report covers twenty pages of regular magazine size paper. It is exhaustive in detail and deals with every phase of the inner workings of the institution. No one can read it without being deeply impressed with the tremendous amount of work which the officials of the school have to accomplish in order to keep the various departments up to a high degree of efficiency. Dr. Frissell pays a high tribute to the home in referring to the pioneer work of General S. C. Armstrong, founder of Hampton institute. He says: The most effective educational institution the world has yet produced is the home. In the home the problems to be solved are intensely real, and the solution of them means the power to solve more problems of a similar sort. This power is education. When the founder of Hampton institute was confronted with the problem of educating men and women but later freed from slavery, a race without the traditions of self supporting, self respecting family life, he consciously or unconsciously adopted the home as the model for his school, and he chose that type of home where each member contributes his share of service to the common need. Such a home differs widely from the ordinary school. In the home the motives for its activities are for the most part immediate and apparent; in the school conditions are necessarily more artificial and the prescribed tasks are, from the pupil's point of view, often purposeless. Only purposeful activity has educational value. From the first he insisted that the work incident to the daily life should be done by the students themselves, not merely because his students were poor and must work their way, but because of the educational value of the work itself. The enrollment for 1913 is 839, representing thirty-three states and five foreign countries. The total number of students enrolled in the trade school for the year is 375. Of these 180 are taking full trade courses. One hundred and twenty-four academic students came to the trade school a portion of the time for industrial training, and thirty-three agricultural students spent the three winter months taking special courses related to their work. The amount paid to students in wages this year amounted to $18,682.21. The largest single piece of work which the trade school has done during the past year has been the erection of Clarke hall. The building was begun in March, 1912, and was opened for use February, 1913. The contract price was $26,142.77, and, with the exception of putting on the slate roof, making some plaster cornice (industries not taught here) and a portion of the furniture, all the work was done by students. This called for the services of bricklayers, plasterers, carpenters, sheet metal workers, steamfitters, plumbers, cabinetmakers, electricians and painters. Mr. Ludlow of the firm of Ludlow & Peabody, who designed the building, says that the brick work in it compares favorably with similar work around New York city, and some of the local builders have pronounced it the best piece of brick work on the peninsula. Besides completing this special contract, the trade school has kept up the repairs on the school buildings and done work for parties outside the school in seventeen states. This includes furniture, turned wood, reverse gears, steam separators, grate bars, wheelbarrows, wagons and trucks. IMPORTANT COMING EVENT. Features of Program For Closing Week at Fisk University. Nashville, Tenn.-The school year at Fisk university, in this city, will soon come to a close. Active preparations are being made for the annual commencement, which will begin on Wednesday, June 11. Five members of the graduating class have been selected to take part on the program of the public exercises. The commencement address will be delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, a member of the board of trustees. Aside from the general interest which is always manifested in the events of commencement week, there are two features which are attracting considerable attention. The most important of the two is the trustees' report with reference to the endowment fund which the institution has been for the past two years struggling to raise. Every effort is being put forward to complete the fund of $300,000 by June 1. The other feature centers in the work of the junior class, which is preparing to present a play entitled "The Lion and the Mouse" Class day exercises, the usual receptions and farewell meetings by students and faculty will hold the attention of every one throughout the week. The usual large number of out of town visitors is expected. The students and local alumun association have already given a jubilee concert for the benefit of the endowment fund. The concert program of music was participated in by the university Glee club, a large chorus and several noted solosists. The school is widely known for the musical ability of its students, and the May jubilee concert full; sustained the musical reputation of this pioneer institution for higher education.
