HANDIWORK REVEALS CHARACTER Training the Conscience is as Essential as Training the Hand for Work—Practical Work Develops the Thinking Powers. By Dr. J. H. House Hampton, Va., Dec. 10. I suppose that all are agreed that the building up of character is the first object of education, and that reason is the reason that the elements that go to the make-up of character. We must train the conceived mind and the hand to do the things which the mind thinks out and plans. It is now about forty years that we have the second think and the hand to do the industrial education. I am more convinced that if we leave any one of the three elements mentioned we weaken the character of a boy for instance, the manual part. I suppose that there is nothing that reveals the character of a boy so perfectly as his first character, and that reveals the character of the boy, and the knowledge thus gained enables the teacher to labor directly for the elimination of evil and the cultivation of the good in him. The influence of manual work upon mental training is, I think, admitted by all the best educators. It trains the mind, and it acquires the edge acquired theoretically a practical possession of one's being. Again, the responsibility thrown upon a boy in practical work develops his thinking powers and makes him more self-confident in his ability to do things. This is perhaps most important in the case of boys. who are less bright in their lessons than their classmates. The fact that in their classes they are more competent with their mates is a source of enceidragement.—"Southern Workman." THE CHICAGO DEFENDER ENDER READERS--SE trouble, kid?

I numbered among the young men who have come to this city and made good is Major Colonel John Jenkins, 4857 Georgia, came to this city 15 years ago and established himself in a small business. He made friends and will meet him every year. He downs a man who needed help. He is captain of the 19th Precinct, 30th Ward, also an officer in St. Mark's church in Minneapolis.

He says in part that he wants to make it clear to the colored people who read the Defender that "we" white people as much sense as you do. Let me state right here that the fact is evident. How can white people view the "Birth of a Nation" of the Negroes and the Negroes do when the play does not affect unfavorably against them? Mr. Meier continues to say that we white people find faults, flaws and imperfections in a race of today by viewing anything of fifty years ago. I am afraid that Mr. Meier's thoughts I believe that he is wrong. White people has or reached its bounds and fallen on itself. From the revelations of Mr. Meier's thoughts I believe that he is wrong. White man is a Christian white gentleman all white men can be Christians and gentlemen also, but how and it is to think that we white people have a white variety of the human race has never been hostile and I trust never will for do not draw the estimate of a people of the very highest. Neither do I condemn a people or a nation for having defects.

AMERICA'S TREATY WITH HAITIANS A FARCE (Continued from Page 1.) if the disorders and hostilities continue, it will prolong our soljour. The Captain then states that he had orders only for the United Nations and not for the entire country. The reason for this order rests on strange interests. We do not intend to interfere in any way with the United Nations, and we clarified the Captain. If a parallel incident arose, it should be by treaty between the two Governments. Operation needed. The Captain informed us that he does not advocate violence, but friendship. That he wishes the co-operation of all countries would use their influence to preserve this friendship and prevent all disorders. Then he soletletted the of our paper to the United Nations, would use suring words. He hegged us to teach all that he desired only the good will of the Nations, law and order here, and advise the Haitians to avoid all disagreements. I have met recently, he continued, many who are men of honor and patriots and not for the entire country, sentiments that I have expressed to you. He would be pleased to ask again, the aid and co-operation of all Haitians to arrive at the highest results. Also, he would be pleased to visit the posal of all who wish to visit him. They will be welcomed with pleasure at the American Legation. For he has made a number of friends here in 25 years and would be pleased to increase the number, as Agrie Grosso We do not come here to set forth any ideas of false sentiment or interested chauvinism. We simply wish to state what we believe, which imposes itself on real friendship. There is so much to say on this subject of American history that I cannot be honest. I want to explain to my compatriots that the geographical polarity on the part of the strategic states in the United States, due to the strategic importance of St. Nicola Pier. It is not I, but you. I will review the statements of authentic documents. In the Sept. and Oct. 1953, nummer 10 of the magazine World's Work, by Eugene Lyle, Jr., published a series of articles which would describe the strategic states in our diplomatic relations with the United States. The titles of these articles suggest the tendencies of American politics in the past. I will cite: "The Introductio in Santa Ponantia," "Our Control of the Antilles," and "The Republic and Our Strategic Needs." The Deep Reason: The statesmen who have the safety of the Republic at heart, should secure them, and guarantee them, quietly some passages, we result. "When we build the Panama Canal, we shall have the European powers at our disposal, the French, the Dutch, the Canal constitutive, the effective places of defense and not the expensive fortification of Saint Pontifex Haiti, the Islands of Saint Pontifex Haiti, Rio, and St. Thomas constitute the real defense of the Canal. A Republic of the United States can, therefore, future expansion. Our strategy is our sat that our strategic possessions have not passed a reasonable limit. Economic security is civilized nation the right to subdue a non-progressive people. . . If in order to secure the triumphs of other nations, the possession of Nicolas Ray becomes necessary, it only rests with us to make a decision." the American Occupation. This is in order to ensure we and demands our deepest meditation. It constitutes the inevitable ransom of our wildness, the ultimate results of our errors, of our unimportant faults, and our unimportant desire to ourselves. I do not intend to criminal against any one, nor to increase the near or distant responsibility in a question where the actual gravity must be observed. If our house were in danger of burning, we would consider only one thing and that is in spite of everything, the house must be saved; and I believe we should be our care. Solution Needed The American occupation in its delicate and desolate complexity raises for us some important questions which require our attention. The situation can not be considered, sought or obtained either in our habitual doings, our customary calculations, or in our own compromises. In the trary; the hour for wisdom has finally sounded for us, and it is only by using the most advanced information that we shall be able to go with in our difficult situation where we have been driven. For at least a quarter of a century the United States have been fixed on us. Pretext Furnished. This great duty which is the same for all peoples, we have therefore disregarded in order to obey only our inquiries, we have therefore the narrow paths of our little personal knowledge of the eyes of the White House were not fixed upon us, even if we had nothing to fear in regard to outside interference on our management, we were none obliged to respond to such a nation since a nation which do not progress, recedes, and since a nation which recedes soon finds itself in the position of a nation which does not conduct ourselves with lenency and propriety and to show that we are a human people desirous of contributing to the world. But since to our knowledge, the White House was watching us, and since in fact it has posted sentiments on our cross streets, our bad management assumes a character. The danger was known immediately and suitable. For the last ten or twelve THE CHICAGO DEFENDER INSURANCE CO. VIOLATES THE FEDERAL LAWS Employment of Race Men as Agents "Against Its Policy" While Many Hundred Thousands of Dollars Are Paid by Them Into Its Funds. IDEALS OF SLAVERY. Principle Involved is a Grave and Serious Question Affecting the Civil Status of All Citizens—Insurance Cos. Are Servants of the People. JUSTICE DEMANDED The Metropolitan Insurance Co. does not consider men of the race worthy of its employment to act as its agents. The application for an agency by a race man does not require an agent. A well known man was evily turned down by an official of important jurisdiction. The first letter written by Mr. Clifford French of 2307 Whitpool st., Nigalla Park, N. Y., to the Metropolitan Ins. Co., enlisted the following reply: Letter of E. De Angela. Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. (Grant Park Dist.), Chicago, Ill. Sept. 25, 1915 Your Sept. 22nd letter is very interesting. I do not control the south side of Chicago. It being dilding is not a managers. Frankly, Mr. French, I hate to discourage you, but I do not believe it would gain you anything by seeing them. I can say, therefore, is I am sorry. Yours very truly. To be Angels, Supt. Unwilling to be offered in that way and insisting on honest inquiry, Mr. French again wrote a letter to the Metropolitan agent of the Chicago District, and the answer is sure and plain a denial of common and a plain net of discrimination on the letter to the insurance company. The letter reads as follows: His Letter of Insult Metropolitan Life Ins. Co. (Grant Park Dist.), Chicago, Ill. Oct. 2, 1915. I have received your Sept. 30th letter and am sorry you did not grasp the importance of your work. Because of experience our company employs no colored men as agents. Again I am sorry. You truly. To De Angellis, Sunt. The name of Mr. French is of no material value or would the name of any other employer be appropriate for the location, or identity of the wrong. It is the principle behind the object, the object of slavery, the object of slavery not acknowledged, the southern application of recognized social injury and harm, ignoring the merit rule, and harm, ignoring the merit rule that we attack, unfit and deny admission to as citizens of the United States. A Wrong Admitted. If any案件, or otherwise, that receives life from a public grant, and afterwards maintains itself should deny charges against the public (the public) equal justice in the operation and general use of those rights. It is the charter and a public wrong. The larger the corporation the greater the magnitude of its crime, if such there is, and the greater the wrong that somebody be applied. This is a vital question. It binds upon our constitutional rights, citizens, and directly affects politics, social and economic status of all people. Equitable Justice. The right of all citizens to participate in the enjoyment of industrial enterprises of which they are a part, created through and maintained from revenue paid by the questionably settled in favor of the citizens. The Metropolitan Insurance insurance much revenue from policies issued to raise funds for larger field and the fact of its great utility because of small premium charges, we must truthfully state, that a large range of 100,000 dollars per race are paying into its funds annually many hundreds of thousands of dollars. The district in question, the South Side race citizens more than 100,000 race citizens—a lucrative field for any insurance company. Our right to deny any corporation a right to race upon which right kand upon the interpretation of the Constitution. No institution possesses a right inherent or otherwise to pursue any policy that is inconsistent with the spirit of the Constitution. If the Metropolitan draws the color line it violates that law. Policy of Degradation. "Aiming to prevent the people that make possible its huge dividends? Think the situation over and see if you are justified in paying your money into an institution that receives your dollars that you a chance that it does other men. They say, pay us your money and we will pay you when you die, but we can't give you a leaf of bread while you live. We can't do no more in their day of tyranny and do not receive them received from us the returns of honest toll and in return applied the lash. I applied the last. Justice Demanded Do not deceived you who are dependent upon the public for your patronage, the people are becoming conscious of their rights and justly demand of you their future. You are growing institution to refuse equal conditions to all people is failure on its part to grasp the opportunities before it. The citizens of the metropolitan citizen in America. Through the columns of this paper the policyholders of the Metropolitan company resent this evil affront as a reflection upon the intellectual failure to honor an honorable obligation.

The gypsy can see nothing, in the future that you cannot see. Don't ask the gypsy what going to happen to you; think of how you live each day. Impending doom will not despair the cunning gypsy yarn.

Hall. Washington, D. C., Dec. 10.—There was organized in this city in 1885, more than 100,000 students, 10,000 teachers, Wilberforceans, which is composed of graduates and under-graduates of Wilberforce University permanently or otherwise, in the purpose of the organization is to cultivate closer fellowship among its members, to extend proper welcome to all the alumni of the university, to foster a city, and above all to co-operate as far as possible with the management of the university towards its material advancement. Bishop in the A. M. E. Church, clergy-men, a state educational officer, teachers, government officers, business men, etc. The Society has directed a number of students to Wilberforce University, and has sponsored some of them. It has awarded prizes in gold to students of the university for academic scientific and biological study and awards in silver to some of the library. It secured over $1,700 for the Building Fund for the girls of Wilberforce University, and for the building of Wilberforcian Clubs in several other cities, and has been addressed in large numbers to the Metropolitan W. E. Chase Presidency Howard Taft, the late Hon. John M. Hurlman, member of the Supreme Court of the United States, and the late Dick, formerly a member of the United States Senate from the state of Ohio. forelans under the presidency of Mr. James C. Wright, has planned to assist the University authorities in securing the allowance of $250,000; to petition the mishap-hospitalization of the University of the A. M. E. Church to modernize Shorter Hall, and to make Wilberforce greater collegiate university of said church; to appeal for a number ofgressive methods in the management of the college department of the University, the reaction to the number comprising the Board of Trustees der to comply with the state laws of Ohio (1912) which provides that the University must not exceed twenty-one members, and to conduct public meetings of national character in the interest of University Education and a Greater Wilberforce. Among those whom the Wilberforlans have entertained are Hiphops Joshua Searcborough, Siphi, Wm. President, S. Scarborough, Siphi, Wm. President, Secretary Horace Tailor, Dr. W. E. B. DuPois, Miss Hallel Q. Brown, and Major and Mrs. W. T. Anderson, the activities of the Washington branch of the Wilberforlans are to point out the possibilities open to the authorities of the institution to the hundreds of graduates half way the hundreds of graduates whose loyalty is questioned and whose interest and efforts will be an asset to the University once they are enrolled. The activities are being conducted along business lines, that the system of bookkeeping is brought up to date, that every dollar can be invested in the students' work obtains throughout the various departments, that church policies are eliminated from university affairs, and that at least some of the money used in entertaining students is being used to pay trustees is legitimately diverted to the payment of a salary to a first class bookkeeper for the Secretary of the University, and that upon a "vest pocket system" a system that does not inspire confidence among wealthy business men, many of whom would contribute liberally were millions less suggestive of mismanagement. Upon inquiry, the president of our organization has been reliably informed that representatives of the Carnegie Foundation and of the Hebrew Fund have made several trips to Wilberforce for the purpose of securing information that would justify them in giving their visions to the university. Unfortunately their visions have without favorable results. AND WHY? Was it because the merchants in Xenla would no longer extend credit to the university? Was it because they found out that a considerable sum of university money had been loaned to certain individuals that had been found in the university and then been found in the books and that there was no record showing that interest has been collected by the university on the university's behalf? Was it because the Secretary did not know "exactly" how many students were enrolled, and had no systematic method of rating the students' work? Was it because of a general state of inefficiency, of lax indifference and of jealousies among the members of the faculty, that it had a combination of these imperfections? Certainly there is something wrong at the university: representatives of such large bona-fide institutions repeated trips, unwillingly find that they cannot consistently recommend the university to a future, as they desire, through adequate And why is it that one seldom, if ever, finds any mention made of Wilberforce University in the 28 columns of the book published at Nashville, or in the 48 columns of the Christian Recorder, published at Philadelphia? Both of these excellent newsletters, which are supported by the A. M. E. Church, and It is doubtless true that an occasional strong letter anent the conditions at a Pleasig Church, the spryant and Jones imbrugle in Tennessean, are the half column article about the happenings at a M. Pleasig Church located somewhere in Pennsylvania, or a two-column letter from the presyrant and Jones imbrugle in Tennessee, are the trouble? Is the university dying or is it already dead? To the Wilberforce University, or to the president of the Presbyterian, or the Bishops, or the Board of Trustees or of the three Recorders to see that the university is divorced from its Anti-Semitic ideology, brought up to a degree of efficiency that is in harmony with the times, even at the cost of a complete reorganization, and the regeneration it will be quite useless for the hundreds of graduates and undergraduates to spend their time in an attitude of Wilberforce Spirit" or a "Greater Wilberforce."

Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 10—Quite a bit of excitement was caused here Tuesday when the station screened up at the station's voice to stop the train. At first we thought that she was clapping and was running away, but the screened up voice was the war whoop. She fainted four times and revived herself and then swoooned when she saw red light of her train turn blue. She said she will my "dearie" think of me getting left. Oh! I can't go home!; then in almost the same breath, she said. I left the station and will do, what will do? But the crowd of about 500 who gathered around assured her that Pittsburgh made all the difference. The pany would give her an outfit she became pacified.

Washington has gone to his reward. He has spanned the black gulf with his bravery, prejudice, discrimination and segregation. He has passed through the turbulence of the Civil War, obstacles that laid in his path barring race progress and race bettement; passed unchallenged through the valley of death; and emerged as a champion lenged his entrance to the Holy City; all eager to add a star to his bright crown, and laid down the cross, with one stroke of his pen he wrote on the last page of his book, now on bow submissively. His work is done. There was another Washington. His name was George Washington—made famous in the past, being our president, enjoying being characterized as the father of our country. But his glory was dimmed by Virginia once held shaves—brought and sold human beings; while Booker T. Washington, the race of black slaves of the South, whose ancestors were brought to this country bound in chains, and sold into slavery. George Washington, our first president, taught us the englishized educator who started forth into the world a giant, friendless youth to yet be made good. Can any other race of people produce a man of such humble skin, with the galling yoke of slavery, most deplorable depths of degradation, who by his own will, courage and determination severed the fetters that bound him, the illustrious men of all nations, making so good a record? Truly a great man. How great the name of Washington. High up on the scroll in the halls of fame. Looking ahead we will find untainted "Booker T. Washington," the great educator's name. How great the name of Washington. To his memory all honor is due. He fought with a will for the good of his race; Discrimination and unfairness he fought against. How great the name of Washington. How crowds and all nations Watched his upward flight to make a name: How he won by energy, will and deter me? How great the name of Washington. His name shines on heaven's earth. Like burnished gold, so bright, so fine, The glimmering light reflects from that earth. As a beacon to the dear ones left behind. How great the name of Washington.

It is so much against, it. In our simple childlike fit to befriend us, thinking it was their appointed and have been forced to say "and cases of our own because it was necessary in sections of the country but we have not of religion that is found in many churchs." VERY FEW CHURCHES of any denomination in any section of the country open their doors freely and bid the black man welcome. It has been recorded many times in the north where the doors of these houses of worship have been actually shut in their face, and this is the Christianity the superior race boasts of; this the kind of Christianity we are supposed to pattern after. Somehow it seems to have gotten into the minds of some people that there is a marked difference between the religions of the two races, that there is a division in the Home Beyond. The front room for the great and mighty—meaning themselves—the back room for the meek and lowly—meaning us. In speaking of the plan to divide the country into three General Conferences with one Supervisional Conference and a separate General Conference for the Negro, the editor of the Christian Advocate says: "The Methodist Episcopal Church will pause a while before she takes any step which will by the slightest token indicate to the colored man that he is not wanted. If he, by his own initiative, extricate himself, that will leave the church free. But there cannot be union so long as the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, insists upon the elimination of the Negro." So the first question is: Will she consent to any plan which will include the colored man? The second is: Can we have one great Methodism rather than two as it is now, or four as the proposed plan contemplates? Bishop Cranston says: "The fundamental antagonisms back of that section cleavage of the nation have been settled forever. Yet Methodism is preaching 'free grace' in hysterical dread of a ghost that has been repudiated by the government, denounced by the people, protested by commerce, and no longer has a haunt except in the churches." That being the case why perpetuate that "ghost" by dividing the church? If we have attained the high level the author suggests there will be no minorities to be protected, and no sections to breed antagonisms, but one Methodism as God gave it birth and being in the heart of John Wesley; Methodism as Asbury conceived it and transmitted it to the fathers; Methodism as a great evangelistic and constructive religious agency for bringing people to Christ and building them into the Kingdom of God. What a blessing it would be if men only had the courage of their convictions, if they were not afraid to do right. It is so much easier to float with the tide than against it. In our simple childlike faith we have expected the church to befriend us, thinking it was their solemn duty. We have been disappointed and have been forced to say "and you to Brutus?" We built churches of our own because it was necessary to have places of worship in certain sections of the country but we have not adopted the narrow, selfish kind of religion that is found in many churches today.

There is nothing particularly strange about that, the shooting of a colored man for some trivial offense is a common occurrence, and yet when one stops to think about it, there was cause for excitement in the fact that the offender was punished, or rather is to be punished, if there is such a thing as punishing a white man for anything he might do to a colored man. Just suppose for a moment the tables were turned and the white man was killed by the black man? Would there be any excitement? Would there have been a trial with a consequent verdict of guilty? We think not. There would have been the usual gathering of "BEST CITIZENS," otherwise known as the modern Kin Klux and the fun (?) would have commenced fast and furious, the judge and jury possibly joining in the festivities but not in their official capacity. Merely swelling the number of "best citizens." Let it be said, however, in all fairness that the number of convictions of whites for offenses committed against blacks has been steadily increasing under the active encouragement of the press in all sections of the country, so perhaps South Carolina and neighboring states will emerge in the course of time from their barbaric methods into the light of the present day civilization.

ON THE ROSTER of the Appomattox Club can be found the names of a great many of Chicago's foremost citizens; men who have made enviable reputations for themselves in their respective vocations. It is to this club that the people of this great city are beginning to look to take the initiative in all things that pertain to the welfare of the race, and it is gratifying to note that serious discord is ever found among the members. The annual election of officers of the club was held last Saturday evening. Hon. S. A. T. Watkins, who as president guided the affairs of the club so successfully the past year, was a candidate for re-election, his only opponent being Col. John R.

IN PLANNING FOR CHRISTMAS do not forget that there are many to whom Christmas means nothing but another day of sorrow and suffering. It is in your power to galdden someone's heart, why not do it?

WHAT ARE WE TO DO now that the news has been gently broken to us that Billy Sunday has again postponed his date to visit us until September 24th, 1917? We can do a lot of bad things in two years. Somebody should talk to us before then. THE FACT that justice is blindfolded may account for some of her hard falls. ALTHOUGH THE CLOUDS are hanging very low over his head, Joc Campbell hasn't taken the last count by any means. TAXES ARE TO BE INCREASED next year to meet the increasing demands made by the board of education, the c unty and the city. It is a shame to break the news so near to Christmas. It might have the effect of keeping some stocking from being so well filled as it otherwise might have been. COL. ROOSEVELT says if you are not fit to fight you are not fit to vote. If this theory was rigidly enforced there would be considerably less votes cast in this BLUFFING NATION of ours. FOURTEEN MORE DAYS TILL CHRISTMAS, ARE YOU READY?

It is Ample Proof of Solicial Deterioration. Segregation socially, morally and economie is unscientific. There is no logic to force weight and value into the truth. All science is based upon the truth, without truth science and logic would have no fact of foundation. There is no institution in the world that is not opposed by the institution in the discussion of all question pertaining to laws social or otherwise it is sufficient to discuss their origin or beginning for proper analysis. We say the unjust burden and the weight of facts warrant no decision by the institution in the attempt in his "New Republic," to justify segregation, but "HE WHO COMES INTO EQUITY MUST COME WITH CLEAN HANDS." JDGE FRY VISITS DEFENDER EDIT Every all known junctus of the reader, a welcome visitor at an old subscriber Discussed in Letter to Defender Bearing on Historical Data of the Bible, Washington Show Genius of Forefathers. Mr. James W. Webb, well known author of *The Age of the Sage* of Tuskegee, the following entries: To the Editor of the Chicago Defender—The great work that Booker T. Washington exhibited in America, as an educator, shows the Hammite lineage of his forefathers in ancient times in Africa on the River Nile. On the river Nile human history was great Hebrew led, Moses was educated. Moses had the industrial education which Booker T. Washington has exhibited. For when Moses fled to the land of Midan, it seemed he did not have an opportunity to exercise his mental faculties, so he applied to Jethro, the black Ethelma, to occupation to a shepherd of his sheep. KNIGHT TEMPLERS TO HAVE NEW HOME Masonite Lodge of Great Falls Contracts for construction to keep-keeping with Progressive Ski By O. H. McFarlin. FIGHT TO THE LAST DITCH A comment on the recent force called the Campbell trial, by Mrs. Cary is worth noting. However space will not permit the printing in full. But the substance is: don't give up the fight; let the precease established by the Jews in the Leo Frank Prison stimulate us, use every possible effort to uphold and vindicate man whom we think nothing has been proven on. It was not even proven in the trial that a murder was committed. What Dr. Washington Taught By JOHN T. BRAMHALL ADD to BOX WHAT Washington Taught Booker Washington was one of the greatest Americans because he was one of the wisest. He saw, with a clearer vision than many statesmen and educators, the imperative need of a real education for his people. Let me repeat his words as The Daily News quoted them to be the most valuable testimonial to this great teacher. "In our industrial teaching we keep three things in mind: First, that the student shall be so educated that he shall be enabled to meet conditions as they live in a word, to the School to where he lives—in a word, to the School to where things which the world wants done; second, that every student who is graduated from the school shall have enough skill, coupled with intelligence and moral character, to enable him to make a living; third, that every student who is sent to every graduate out feeling and knowing that labor is dignified and beautiful—to make each one love labor instead of trying to escape it." Eliminating the reference to the South, this applies, or should apply, to the school in which the advance in skill, intelligence and moral character, and not the white? There is no reason why the few should get "the education of a gentleman" and the many get virtually none at all. Not that the teacher should not give no education for the plain people is bad. The great trouble with the average American, north and south, is the shop and on the farm. Is that he is carless about education; carless about the quality; carless more carless about the quality. Booker T. Washington especially carless about the quality. Many of us have faith in an educational ideal. Booker Washington had grown nominal freedom, but they still remained in the bondage of ignorance and racial prejudice. Booker Washington taught them how to make themselves free and is now for the Negro alone to honor the memory of Booker Washington, or to profit by his words and work. It is for all Americans, of whatever racial background, that we must join the members of our school boards, to lay this maxim to heart: That all our youth should be so educated as to be able to do the thing that the world wants done, to learn to love, to learn to self-selves and others, and to know that labor is dignified and beautiful.

The Chicago Tuberculosis Institute The Chicago Tuberculosis Institute was the organizer of the Free Dispensaries for the benefit of those suffering from tuberculosis, of all races, not only in the state, but throughout the city, throughout the Seals. Long before the city gave any attention to the Tuberculosis Dispensaries, the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute organized, maintained a corps of nurses, doctors, and gave medicine, male visits and the statewide race and race or color, and without a cent of contribution from the individual benefited. Naperville Tuberculosis Sanitarium, Naperville Tuberculosis Sanitarium has always been a private institution, run by the Naperville Philharmonic people, has a capacity for about one hundred or less inmates, Naperville Tuberculosis Sanitarium has the right and reserves the right, so far as understood, to accept or reject any person who wishes to be inject. The Chicago Visiting Nurses Association has two free beds at the Naperville Tuberculosis Sanitarium, paid for out of funds furnished by the wealthy people of Chicago, and they have the right to receive a certain suitable persons for their beds. The Chicago Tuberculosis Institute laid the foundation of the Chicago Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium before turning it over to the city. Had it not been for the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute's activity and foresight, we doubt very much THE DEFENDER GOES LOWS CHISTMAS is but two weeks for you have been buying will be given a wish, however, to ask you one question: remembered the poor, over you you buy those who have been less fortunate.

Through the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute a sum of money has also been set aside to assist in paying the salaries of the nurses of the Municipal Tuberculosis Institute, you remember, a few years ago when in well-presented plaques of the city were cut in their salaries for several months, the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute paid the salaries of the nurses doing tuberculosis work or up the dues and thus saved the nurses from suffering a cut in their salaries. For nearly ten years the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute paid nurses' salaries, furnished meeting quarters and promoted organization and prevention and care of tuberculosis among all the nurses, paying the salaries of nurses and other officers until four and a half years ago, when all dispensaries and nurses were turned over to the city and became The Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium. The Colored People We must think as often and as much of our duty and responsibilities as we do of our rights and privileges. We must serve, with the charity work done among colored people by the state, county and city, by the white charitable organizations, but we must do as other races and the great human family and accept all we have to offer to another man. We the Jew, German italian, sign nations are teaching us daily the lesson of self-care and self-protection for the needy, although they receive aid from county and city, yet they are organized for the purpose of care of or assisting in the care of their own people.
