Fort Russell Boys Are at the Maneuvers
Twenty-Third Year Fort Rus Boys the M
POLE MOUNTAIN, WYO.
The maneuvers during the week ending Sunday were very interesting and instructive for most of both enlisted men and officers. There were "non coms," who, while in charge of advanced parties, were required to use maps to find the way. This is something new to even the old-timer—an enlisted man away in advance of the main column, guiding it with the aid of a map. Heretofore only officers carried maps and the enlisted men had to constantly look back and listen for signals from the advance guard commander. Time has changed everything.
Non-commissioned officers are now required to do many things that only officers did before and during the Spanish-American war. Five years ago not an elisted man in the army knew how to use any kind of range-finding apparatus. And only a few knew anything either about map reading, or sketching, or figuring out the scales and drawing them for the plater. Until a few years ago, only a first sergeants had any knowledge of field service regulations and how to apply them. In some troops more than half of the men understand both the Meyer and the Naval codes of signalling. These things, together with a limited knowledge of the laws of civilized warfare some enlisted men in every organization have been required to learn during the past ten years. And many of the outfits are having the men to put them in operation whether possible in these maneuvers.
If this progress in knowledge be continued, five years hence it is all most certain that enlisted men will be required to know how to take two from one and to explain the difference between the sine and the cosine.
Sunday the First Colorado regiment of militia and band arrived here. The regulars, while en route to point number one, met them two miles from camp. The militiamen were fully armed and equipped for the field, and presented a very soldierly appearance.
The column of the citizen soldiers was strung out about a half mile along the Laramie road. The newcomers were yelling and the Ninth Horses were answering them until the last company had passed. While the Colorado soldiers were passing, the Ninth boys were carefully scrutinizing the former's ranks to see whether all of them were of the same kind. When the last squad of the militia regiment had passed, one of the troopers remarked, "Yes, they are all the same."
About ten minutes after the state troops had gone by, their wagon train was met. Here the troopers thought surely they would see some of their kind. When it was thought that the last wagon had passed, another trooper exclaimed: "No, there's nothing doing." But soon three more wagons belonging to the train were sighted nearly a half mile behind the others. On the second one of these three wagons the cavalrymen saw what they were looking for—one of Aunt Dinah's children. This colored gentleman was dressed in the same kind of uniform that the militiamen wore.
As soon as the wagon carrying the colored gentleman had passed, a cavalryman in the rear was heard to shout vociferously: "I knew there had to be one there somewhere. You know one went to the North Pole!"

A PROGRESSIVE WHO WOULD EQUIP THE MACHINERY OF THE STATE WITH BRAKES, THAT IT MIGHT NOT RUN AMUCK.
There are some men in Colorado who are worth while for themselves apart from any prestige they have as members and leaders of organizations. If this year it shall come to pass—and it seems likely to do so—that the two old uurties will be thrown into confusion by the birth of a new party, the man rather than the party will be the hope of the state more so than before. In such event The Statesman points out Senator Thomas J. McCue, as one worth watching. Being a man of approved worth, whosc private business and public career alike have shown him a rare combination of good sense and executive ability, he will be in striking contrast to the mere politician who depends upon the promises and deals made possible by coherent political organization. The one can stand when the strife of battle has thrown into disorder the alignments of party machinery because he depends upon himself, his own character, his own foresight, his own strength of arm and his own cool-
bravery of numbers only. Tom McCue, as he is better known, is a candidate for the nomination for governor at the hands of the Democratic party and should he get the plum, he will be one of the substantial things to which that party can "point with pride."
He will be remembered as one of the men whose name was prominently mentioned in the last legislature for United States senator. He is the man who sprang into the public eye in the Seventeenth General Assembly by trying to get the Democratic majority to temper its new legislation with common sense. He is the man that Speer Democracy besought to accept the nomination for mayor. In short he is a great big man and whether aided or hindered by his party, he is a force to be reckoned with in Colorado.
While not attempting to say what the outcome of his candidacy for the nomination will be, or what party may win in the election, the fellow that beats Tom McCue will have to hustle and will know that he had a race. A man whose word is always kept, a man whose judgment is always exercised before he acts, a man who is willing to earn the good will of the public by loyal service in its behalf, is rare. This man is of that type, and whether his political views please or displease, he is worth knowing. With Tom McCue in the governor's chair we can rest assured of sound government, consistent, constructive and progressive within the bounds of common sense. He is an asset of the Demococratic party in Colorado.

The trustees' quarterly report to the congregation at a recent meeting showed nearly $550 has been raised for the past three months through the direct channel of the pledged system. The amount from the auxiliaries of the church is not included in this sum total. Since the last Sabbath of March to the present thirty members have been duly confirmed and received into full membership. Those items coupled with an almost completed renovated church and chapel are material evidences of the solidarity of the work.
The Jackson's Virginia Jubilee Singers of national repute, noted at Chantauqua centers for their "classy" renditions, will appear before the Denver public for the first time Tuesday night, Aug. 13th, at this church. Rumor says they are in a class by themselves. Testimonials from musical critics place them in the forefront of their kind. En route to Boulder to sing under the auspices of the Chantauqua on the 15th and 16th prox, as well as two of the white churches of the city on the 14th and 17th, the minister of the People's church was fortunate in securing their services for the above date at a small admission fee of 35 cents adults, children 15 cents. Every lover of plantation melodies, cabin and river songs, jubilee hymns and a variety of other popular selections, ought to welcome these distinguished performers with their presence.

In answer to the question why The Statesman, which publishes personal and social news without cost, makes a charge for the publication of the guests at parties, wedding presents and the like, the editor wishes to explain that the paper cannot discriminate between those with short lists and those with long lists without making enemies. Yet it is evident that lists embracing fifty and a hundred names are an imposition upon our good intentions. Therefore a charge is made for publishing lists, ranging from mere nothing for small lists to considerable for large ones.

WELL EQUIPPED FOR BUSINESS
Success of W. Sidney Pittman as an Architect.
RECORD OF HIS WORK NOTED
Encouragement For Aspiring Young Afro-Americans In the Field of Architecture Found In the Actual Achievements of a Former Student and Graduate of Tuskegee Institute.
Houston, Tex. — Ground will be broken here about Aug. 1 for a public library for the colored residents of the city. The library is the result of the liberality of Andrew Carnegie, who gave $15,000. The architect is W. Sidney Pittman, who has drawn plans for some of the largest buildings erected by the race within the last five years.
Mr. Pittman is a native of Montgomery, Ala. He was educated at Tuskegee institute, graduating in 1900. He later took the course in architecture at Drexel institute, Philadelphia, afterward returning to Tuskegee, where he taught architecture for several terms.
Among the many buildings that he has designed are the Negro building at the Jamestown exposition, the buildings at the National Religious Training School and Chautauqua, Durham, N.C.; the White Rock Baptist church, Durham; the $100,000 Colored Young Men's Christian association building in Washington, the Garfield public school, Washington; the Carnegie library in Montgomery, Ala., and the projected $150,000 building for the Knights of Pythias of Dallas, Tex. The latter building will contain four stories and will be divided into a thea-

ter, lodge and office rooms. It will be of brick and stone, with all steel framework.
Mr. Pittman's work in this section of the country will necessitate himself and family taking up residence in this section for the time being. Mr. Pittman was one of the leading spirits in the upbuilding of Fairmount Heights, a Washington suburb, where he and other prominent Washingtonians made their homes.
Alfough Mr. Pittman's native home is Montgomery, Ala., he has resided in Washington for a number of years. His present residence at 3509 Roseland avenue, Dallas, Tex., is graced by Mrs. Pittman and three children.
Mrs. Pittman before her marriage was Miss Portla Washington, daughter of Dr. Booker T. Washington. She is an accomplished pianist, having studied at the New England Conservatory of Music. Mrs. Pittman also studied music for several years in Europe.
Notwithstanding her many home duties she still finds time to devote to the study of music and giving instructions to many pupils. The people in the vicinity of her new temporary home will find in Mrs. Pittman an energetic woman, thoroughly interested in the advancement of the race along all lines.
Annual Edition of the Florida Sentinel.
The annual edition of the Pensacola (Fla.) Sentinel—Mr. M. M. Lewey, editor and proprietor—issued in magazine form, is a most excellent piece of journalistic achievement. It is printed on good paper and is fully illustrated. It contains a graphic account of Dr. Booker T. Washington's Florida tour of last March, facts and figures showing the remarkable progress of the race in Pensacola during the past decade, and some of the institutions which reflect the thrift and intelligence of the race in the state and community. Mr. Lewey is a former member of the Florida legislature and is president of the National Negro Press association. Congratulations, Mr. Lewey.
Macon County Leads In Public Schools. There are more public schools for Afro-Americans in Macon county, Ala.. than any other county of its size in the southern states. The last count credited Macon county with fifty-seven public schools, beside many other institutions of learning of higher grade.
THRIFTY CENTER OF EDUCATION
Normal School In Daytona Makes Notable Progress.
BEGAN IN ABANDONED HOUSE.
Interesting Story of the Achievements of Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune as Founder and Principal of an Ideal School For Females—Faculty of Capable Instructors.
Daytona. Fla.—Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, principal and founder of the Daytona Normal and Industrial School For Girls, in this city, is one of the most notable characters of the race and a woman of unusual gifts for leadership. Her whole life has been one actuated by service to her race and fellow women. She tells a thrilling story of her efforts to build up her school and how she went to the black belt of Florida with $1.50 in her pocket and started a school which will come near making the name Bethune immortal. Her story is one of the brave heroine at work and one that would have meant defeat to a person having less courage and pluck.
Mrs. Bethune was born in Mayesville, S. C. She was educated in the public schools of her native city and later attended Scotia seminary, an institution for the higher education of colored girls in Raleigh, N. C.
She graduated from Scotia in 1894. In further preparation for her life's work as teacher and missionary she took a course in Bible study and religious work at the Moody school in Chicago.
Mrs. Bethune began her career as teacher in Kendall institute in Sumter, S. C., later going to Palatka, Fla., where she taught in the Presbyterian mission school for five years. It was while teaching at Palatka that Mrs. Bethune got the inspiration for the larger work which she was about to enter.
She saw in certain sections of the state young women sadly in need of education and other things necessary

to make their lives ennobling. She at once set about to better their condition as speedily as possible. She went to Daytona, Fla., to begin her life work in 1894. Her ambition was to establish a school that would have for its aim the higher and industrial education for girls and young women. How to begin the work with only $1.50 was the problem which confronted Mrs. Bethune. But this condition was not sufficient to discourage her, for she soon succeeded in renting an old abandoned house of five rooms. These rooms were furnished with material for beds and cooking utensils from friends in the neighborhood, who gave liberally after seeing Mrs. Bethune's determination to succeed. The school began with five students.
After struggling along for a long time and winning the confidence of the community the school soon began to grow. Today it is one of the largest and most flourishing institutions in the south. The school has a student body of 600 girls, 100 being boarding students who come from various sections of the south. There are three splendid buildings situated on twelve acres of land, which make an ideal campus. The property valuation is about $30,000. From one teacher the school has now a faculty of eight teachers, representing Fisk, Wilberforce, Hampton and Pratt.
Since the establishment of the school it has done much for the moral and intellectual improvement of the community. In connection with her work as principal of the school Mrs. Bethune gives much time to the welfare of the women and children of the community. She has organized a women's council, which has for its aim the discussion of problems affecting home life.
Mrs. Bethune is spending the summer in the north, where she is soliciting funds with which to erect a girl's trades building and an infirmary. The two buildings will cost about $20,000.
Mrs. Bethune states that it takes about $9,000 a year to run the school. Thirty dollars will pay the expenses of a student for a year.
Tuskegee Institute Summer School. The summer school for teachers at the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute up to July 20 had an enrollment of 275 teachers, representing fifteen states. The special course for the Jeans fund workers proves to be a popular feature.

W O W T H OF BETHEL CHAPEL
Energetic Young Pastor's Labors Recognized by Bishop Tyree.
Those who labor among the people as pastors, missionaries or social settlement workers in New York doubtless have some knowledge of the work of Bethel A. M. E. chapel in West Sixty-third street. The Rev, Mr. S. H. V. Gumbs, the enterprising young pastor, deserves much credit for the splendid work of uplift which he has accomplished.
Mr. Gumbs is a native of St. Kitts, British West Indies, where he received the rudiments of his early education. He later graduated with the degree of master of arts from St. George college. Pastor Gumbs is well informed, as he has traveled much in England and other countries on the continent.
He was ordained in the Protestant Episcopal church in England by Bishop Portland. For a long time he was missionary secretary of the Red Cross society of the church of England and while in this capacity traveled extensively through Africa, China and the holy land. While in the holy land he had the honor of being baptized in the river Jordan, being among the few men of the race to be so honored. Ten years ago he came to America and joined the A. M. E. conference. He has since pastored in Newark and Passaic, N. J., and several cities in the New England section.
When he came to New York he established the Bethel chapel, of which he is the pastor. The congregation has steadily grown, and the pastor and members are planning to build soon. At the recent conference of the church Bishop Tyree was pleased with the report of Rev. Mr. Gumbs. The church is in one of the most thickly settled districts in New York and wields quite some influence. Bethel chapel is also third in the conference for dollar money.

One of the best known and most successful musical organizations in Pennsylvania is the North Side Choral club in Pittsburgh. The club has been in existence for five years. It has covered a wide field of musical activity in and out of the city. The past season was one of much interest and profit. While many organizations of its kind discontinue active work during the summer months, the North Side Choral club has decided to continue work through the heated term. It will render light productions and hold a few open air meetings. For the time being meetings will be held in the lecture room of Grace Presbyterian church. One of the special features on the club's program to be rendered this summer is "The Black Knight," a cantata by Sir Edward Elgar. Selections will also be used from the works of Samuel Coleridge Taylor.
EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS IN SAVANNAH AND VICINITY.
Haven Industrial School and Beach Institute Make Good Showing.
The Haven Industrial Home and School in Savannah, Ga., while not entirely self supporting has made commendable progress. The institution is carried on under the auspices of the Women's Home Mission society of the Methodist Episcopal church. It was established twenty-one years ago. Besides a large number of resident students, the attendance the past year averaged nearly 200, male and female. It is largely supported by northern philanthropists, and it wields a wholesome influence throughout the city. For the excellent work of uplift which it is doing it deserves the most liberal support.
The principal of the school is Miss Viola E. Baldwin, a woman of fine education and executive ability. Miss Baldwin is able assisted in the management of the school by a Miss Lewis who, like the principal, has been with the institution since its inception. Many improvements for the benefit of students are expected for the coming term. Beach institute on Price street is another school which is doing much toward the education of our youths. The faculty is composed of both white and colored. Each year shows an increase in the number of pupils in attendance. There are forty-three colored teachers in the city public schools, and twenty-eight in the rural district school, in which thousands of children are being educated.
Creditable Business Establishment. The promoters of the silk mills and factory in Fayetteville, N. C., are much encouraged by the success which they have had in operating the plant. It is said that the finest grade of silk manufactured anywhere in the south is turned out by this concern. The plant is a credit to the business ability and industry of the owners and also reflects the intelligence and skill of the operators.
Encouragement For Young Collegians. The successful operation of drug stores by Afro-Americans in many of the large cities of the United States is encouraging. Hundreds of our young men and women who are graduates in pharmacy from some of the best schools are finding employment in these stores. The largest wholesale and retail drug store owned and operated by our people is in Chattanooga, Tenn.

What Makes a Woman?
One hundred and twenty pounds, more or less, of bone and muscle don't make a woman. It's a good foundation. Put into it health and strength and she may rule a king-dom. But that's just what Electric Bitters give her. Thousands bless them for overcoming fainting and dizzy spells and for dispelling weakness, nervousness, backache and tried, listless, worn-out feeling. "Electric Bitters have done me a world of good," writes Elliza Pool, Depew, Okla., "and I thank you, with all my heart, for making such a good medicine." Only 50c. Guaranteed by all druggists.

GRADUATE NURSES TO HOLD FIFTH ANNUAL MEETING.
National Association Will Convene In Richmond, Va., Aug. 27.
Richmond, Va.—From present indications the fifth annual meeting of the National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses, which will convene in this city Aug. 27-29, will be the best in the history of the organization. All sections of the country will be represented.
The nurses are exhibiting an interest that indicates that the meeting will be full of enthusiasm and effectiveness. The association is composed of zealous workers for humanity, and many new ideas will be introduced that will be of especial benefit to graduate nurses in all parts of the country.
A strong feature of the meeting will be the report by Mrs. R. L. Williams of New York, who represented this influential body at the international congress of nurses held in Germany. This report alone will repay all nurses for attending the meeting. New ideas will be advanced, and all who attend will get new inspiration for future work of whatever calling. The work of the organization has shown to the world that the Afro-American woman is fully capable of keeping pace with the strides of an advanced civilization and not falling below the standard of the women of

"Pickled Feet!" That's a NEW one—on YOU. Pickled feet means DANGER—long misery for their poor, suffering owners. Pickled feet are soaked and washed with various foot remedies and reliefs. Reader—you with the blistered, tired, over-worked feet—do you know that if you have a so-called medicated foot-washes you are "pickling" your feet. Then for your own sake, STOP IT! Stop it at ONCE! Those remedies, though they relieve pain, make you feel more wore each time. Your feet feel fine for a few hours after bathing, then the "Pickle" wears off and, then your feet your 40 burn, scire, suffer.

There is only one really safe, harmless, sure relief for sufferers in injury and pain, and that ONE reality is SANATITE. Ever hear of SANATITE? Then listen! SANATITE is different, it will be foot reliefs—it's in a dry form in a powder puff. Simply dust it on the feet mornings and the day will be bumpy and bright. For you. Bear this in mind: There's no fussing on mussing with water and foot bathing with SANATITE. It's an instant's work—JUST DUST it.
SANATITE—through its wondrous antiseptic healing qualities—takes the sting out of sore, tired, burning, blistered, aching feet—with its soft, moist, and non-toxic work. And, Reader, it never harms them—it's sanitary and ANTISEPTIC. If your feet perspire, dust them with SANATITE—it deodorizes. It gives the same pleasing sensation as applied elsewhere on the body, and is used constantly by refined men and women.
SANATITE is the greatest healer and pain destroyer of the body. It won the recommendation of physicians and nurses—it will do likewise with YOU. Always remember this, Reader: If your feet suffer, the BEST of your body suffers. Neglected sore feet bodily injuries that may ruin your health for life.

other races that are engaged in a similar profession. The members of this movement are inbued with the spirit of philanthropy that is evidenced in many ways, one of which is the effort to start a benefit for disabled nurses. Therefore this feature will be conducted upon a comprehensive basis, and the prevailing idea of a nurses' home for the disabled members of the organization will be the ultimate outcome of this timely activity on the part of the association. The present officers are Miss M. F. Clarke, president; Mrs. C. S. Morgan, corresponding secretary; Miss Charlotte S. Rhone, secretary.

THE BOLIN CASE SETTLED
National Association's Part in Big Civil Action Noted.
BIG CIVIL ACTION NOTED.
No one can follow closely the work of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People without being convinced that it came into being for a specific purpose. The association was organized to combat the spirit of persecution and prejudice which confronts the colored people in this country.
The organization also exists to assure to the race every right, privilege and opportunity to which every citizen of the United States is entitled. Theoretically all but those most imbued with race prejudice grant the justness of those principles for which the association contends. The July issue of the Crisis is an educational number. It contains special news about our colleges, with illustrations, and also has a number of other articles of timely interest. It also refers to the now famous Bolin case as follows:
From time to time we have reported the progress of the Bolin case against the Palisades (New York) Amusement park. Last summer Mr. Paul C. Bolin, organist at St. Philip's P. E. church. New York, together with his brother, Mr. L. W. Bolin, his wife and some friends, went to Palisades park, where several of them were refused admittance. The National Association For the Advancement of Colored People became interested in the case and tried to get a criminal indictment. The local district attorney was dilatory, and nothing was done. Then on advice of our attorneys a civil suit was brought.
The company saw no escape and, having no defense, promptly came to terms by paying the Bolins $200 cash for damages and giving the family a free pass for the season. If there is any further color discrimination at Palisades park we should be glad to hear of it.
Potent Factor In Community Life.
The New York Historical and Literary society of St. James' Presbyterian church in New York, Rev. William R. Lawton, D. D., pastor, has had a most successful year. Speakers and lecturers of national repute have served on the program of the meetings from month to month. The spirit of uplift has been felt throughout the community. Assistant Attorney General William H. Lewis was the principal speaker at the June meeting of the organization. The musical program was conducted by Mme. Emma De Lyon Leonard.
The next annual meeting of the Lott Carey Baptist convention will be held in Portsmouth, Va., beginning on Wednesday morning, Aug. 28. The sessions will be held in the Zion Baptist church, of which the Rev. Dr. J. M. Armstead's pastor.
RHEUMATISM
Denver, Colo.
Gentlemen:
I want to give you a short history of my condition so that others who have the same trouble I had may know there is a cure for rheumatism. In July, 1909. I noticed that I had inflammatory rheumatism. In health I had weighed 152 pounds; I dropped to 120 pounds. After being confined to the bed for two and a half months a friend recommended Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Powder. In the summer of 1910 I began to take it. At this time, April, 1911, I have been well and robust for five months. My appetite is good and my weight is 140 pounds and not a trace of the old trouble remains. I have taken six bottles of the Twentieth Century Wonder Powder. If you want to refer anyone to me I will gladly express the merits of this medicine.

New York.—Rev. Dr. J. W. Rankin, who was elected missionary secretary of the A. M. E. church at the recent general conference, is one of the most widely known churchmen of the connection. He has had a varied career, which has given him a large experience. Dr. Rankin has served in many departments of the church, in each of which he has reflected credit upon himself and the denomination.
His service in the A. M. E. church dates back to 1878, when he was an itinerant minister traveling through

REV. DR. J. W. RANKIN.
the rural districts of Mississippi. Dr. Rankin was born a slave in Demopolis, Miss. He was educated in the public schools of Clark county, Miss., where he had gone at an early age with his parents. He later attended Lemoine institute, after which he taught school in connection with his itinerant preaching.
As a young man he worked also in the postoffice of Brookhaven, Miss., under Percy Blackman, who was at that time the only colored postmaster in that section. He was ordained elder in 1879 by Bishop J. B. Campbell of Philadelphia. His first charge was crowned with much success, as he was especially effective as a revivalist. He then pastored successfully in Granada and Gravesport, Miss. He was made presiding elder in 1883 for the Mississippi district and developed the district to the extent that it necessitated making two districts.
He was the first principal and among the early founders of the Delhi Normal and Industrial Institute of Mississippi which has since become one of the strongest schools of the A. M. E. connection. As presiding elder he was transferred to Houston, Tex. As presiding elder of the Houston district he met with the same success that had crowned his efforts elsewhere. He remodeled the church at Wassex Station, Tex., which was dedicated by the late Bishop Grant in 1898. Dr. Rankin as presiding elder gave much study to the small missions and assisted in their development. When he was elected to his present office at the general conference he was presiding elder of Coranicani district in Texas, where he was residing. In his home city he wields much influence and is regarded as one of the most substantial citizens of the community.
He owns considerable property located in the best section of his home town. Dr. Rankin attributes a great deal of his success to the interest and devotion of his wife, who manifests keen interest in his welfare.
The election of Dr. Rankin as missionary secretary of the A. M. E. church has been considered a wise one, and especially commends itself to the bishops of the connection, who regard him as an able churchman.
As missionary secretary Dr. Rankin will have charge of both the foreign and home missionary work of the connection. He is well posted on the work and in a statement recently said that it would be his aim to further develop the department and to maintain its usual high standard. He is a man of much force and suggests the able churchman and business man.
He takes a keen interest in all matters pertaining to the progress of the race. He is high up in lodge circles. The headquarters of the missionary department of the A. M. E. connection is at 61 Bible House, New York. The department is one of the strongest of the church and employs a force of three clerks. The missionary department of the church does an annual business of $30,000 and has under its direction forty missionaries. Dr. Rankin succeeds Rev. Dr. W. W. Beckett, who has been elected to the presidency of Allen university.

LOYAL TO HIS ALMA MATER.
Attainments of Professor J. W. Work of Fisk University.
The excellent record made by J. W. Work, professor of Latin and history at Fisk university, in Nashville, Tenn., as an instructor and capable field representative in connection with the Fisk singers, entitles him to a place among the foremost of our present day educators. Professor Work has made a long and-thorough study of Negro music and is recognized as an authority in that direction. He was born in Nashville, under the shadows of Fisk university, and was educated in the public schools of his native town and at Fisk, from which institution he graduated with honors.
Actuated by a further desire for education, he entered Harvard university. He afterward took a course of study at the University of Chicago, where he earned the degree of master of arts. He then returned to Fisk, his alma mater, and became an instructor. His superior knowledge gained at the eastern colleges stood him in good stead for valuable service at Fisk, and he was placed at the head of the Latin and history departments of the university several years ago, where he has since taught.
As a teacher he has made good and has maintained the high standard for which the school is noted. He is one of the most popular instructors at the university and has become a fixture. Along with his academic duties he devotes much time to the study and development of music. He has written and spoken much on music and has made some very valuable contributions on the folk songs of the race. Professor Work is now writing a book on the history of Negro music. He devotes much space to the necessity of preserving the musical traditions of the race, which have been banded down in the folk songs. Some of the most prominent musical critics

Suitable for Presents Just the Thing for Company
of the country often seek the opinion and advice' of Mr. Work on matters pertaining to Negro music. While in New York recently Professor Work had several consultations with musical authorities on the Negro's contribution to music. He believes the race exemplifies many of its strongest qualities in its musical gifts. In the city of Nashville he is identified with many organizations having for their aim the betterment of the race.
SHAPING YOUNG LIVES.
Progress Made by the Race Through Careful Home Training.
By CLEVELAND G. ALLEN.
New York.—One of the most hopeful signs of the substantial progress which the race is making may be seen in the advance that is being made in the home. More and more parents are beginning to pay greater attention to the home and the training of their children along lines of usefulness and right living. This being done, they will get out of their young lives all of the beauty and charm of a well regulated home. As long as parents put the proper estimate upon the home and the setting before the children of the proper examples of right and useful living greater will be the advance of the race. One of the most helpful organizations in this section, which is wielding wide
influence in the training of the young,
is the Mothers' club of Brooklyn, of
which Mrs. N. B. Dodson is president.
These beautiful, consecrated and earnest Christian young mothers are beautifying the home and making it
the center of influence from which the
lives of the young are being shaped.
A striking example of what careful
home training will accomplish in the
lives of children is seen in little Loretta Taylor, the three-year-old daughter
of Mrs. James M. Taylor of 244 West
Fifty-third street, New York.
She is an unusually bright child and
has shown rare gifts in music. She is
especially gifted as a singer and has
1920
The remarkable ability of almost repeating a song when first heard. She is highly intelligent and interesting and furnishes a striking example of the influence that mothers have upon their children. This remarkable child has a bright future and will grow up to add honor to the womanhood of the race.
Episcopals Honor Rector Ferguson. The high esteem in which the Rev. D. L. Ferguson, rector of the Church of Our Merciful Saviour in Louisville, Ky., is held by the diocese of Kentucky is seen in his selection to preach the annual sermon before the Episcopal council of the diocese in 1913.

PROPRIETER
"Poro" College
3100 Pine St. St. Louis, Mo.
THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair.
The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them. For treatment, call on or address:

LAND IDLE FORTY YEARS.
Tract Owned by Freedman Aid Society
Should Be Cultivated.
With the idea of using every facility at its command for the advancement of education among Afro-Americans some forces within the Episcopal Methodist church argue for the expansion of one or two of the twenty-three schools of the denomination along lines which will more effectively reach and help the masses. One writer has pointed out in the public prints the suitable location of either Clark university or Claflin, particularly referring to the fact that for forty years the Freedman Aid society has owned a 400 acre tract of land near Atlanta, lying idle, contributing no revenue to the schools.
In view of these facts it appears that, according to his record, Dr. I Garland Penn can come near bringing to pass the features of educational work in these church schools that will most effectively reach the masses of the people. There is perhaps no one who has a wider influence within the church who can bring to the educational work more substantial support than Dr. Penn.
Hundreds of letters have been received commending his selection to this important post from government officials, white and colored pastors, bishops of the church, business men of national and worldwide reputation, all of whom pledge to the new secretary their continued support and good will.
An Independent Race Organization. Among younger organizations for civic betterment in Detroit, Mich., is the Afro-American alliance. The object of the organization as indicated above is to do uplift work among our people by encouraging them in business and professional life. It is independent and not bound by any political ties. It believes in a square deal for every American citizen and is against discrimination on account of race or color.
