The Denver Star Has the Largest Circulation among Colored People in Colorado--Get Wise and Advertise The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR. Number 23 Rev. Washington Officiates. Few, if any, larger funeral was ever witnessed in Denver, perhaps Colorado, among colored people, than was that of A. M. Lawhorn, at Campbell Chapel, Sunday afternoon The aisle of the church were filled and all available space used. Outside a still larger crowp unable to find seats in the church, waited quietly and patiently to pay their last tribute of respect to the deceased. The impressive services was ably conducted by the pastor Rev. James Washington, assisted by Revs. D E. Over, J. A. Thos.-Hazell and A. E. Reynolds. All spoke in glowing terms of Mr. Lawhorn's life as a citizen and business man and his beautiful words before passing into the Great Beyond. Much credit is reflected on Mr. Curtis M. Harris of the Douglass Undertaking Co., who so systematically handled the large concourse of friends and sympathizers He was assisted by Messrs E. V. Cammell and Fred Clark. The following program was rendered: Prayer,—Rev. A. E. Reynolds Asleep In Jesus, Choir Scripture Lesson—Rev. Hazel Solo—Mme. C. A. J. Spires Obituary Rev. D. E. Over Solo—Mme. Lillian H. Jones Eulogies,—Revs. Over and Reynolds Selection Choir Resolutions—Progress Lodge No. 12 N. of P.; Rocky Mt. Court of Calanthe No. 3.; Captolia Temple S. M. T. No. 3; Progress Court No. 6. The choir and congregation sang the last song sung by the deceased, "Jesus Loves Me' Sermon—Rev. Washington Selection Choir Paul and Raleigh, N. C. As the last session was held in Nashville, Tenn. the association decided to accept the invitation from Raleigh and will hold its sixteenth annual meeting in the latter city in 1914. Dr. W. G. Alexander, secretary of the organization, in a recent open letter paid a high tribute to the local entertainment committee and to the citizens generally of Nashville for the generous hospitality shown at the meeting held in that city. Dr. Alexander also comments liberally on the work of the session performed by individuals in the various sections of the program, such as clinic, dental, surgical and literary. The paper read by Dr. A. W. Dumas of Natchez, Miss., however, on "Vice Disease" was conceded by all to have been the most highly instructive and valuable to the profession of any yet heard on the subject. So pleased were the members that they requested the executive board to have the matter edited and printed for distribution among the laity. The surgical features of the Nashville session without exception were the best conducted since the inception of the association. The officers for 1913-14 are: President, Dr. A. M. Brown, Birmingham Ala.; vice president, Dr. J. M. G. Ramsey, Richmond, Va.; second vice president, Dr. E. J. LaBranch, New Orleans; treasurer, Dr. J. R. Levy, Florence, S. C.; secretary, Dr. W. G. Alexer, Orange, N. J.; assistant secretary, Dr. G. R. Ferguson, Charlottesville, Va.; dental secretary, Dr. A. T. Landers, Tuskegee, Ala.; pharmaceutical secretary, Dr. H. B. Marble, Yazoo City, Miss. Dr. G. E. Cannon was reelected chairman of the executive committee. The new members elected to that body were Dr. A. A. Wyche, Charlotte, N. C. (medical section), and Dr. E. W. Erwin, Memphis, Tenn. (surgical section). Hutchinson, Kan., Jan 22. The revival services at the African Methodist Episcopal church on E. Avenue west continue with unabating success. When the services closed last night, Rev. H. Franklin Bray, D. D., the pastor, reported that ninety-seven souls had accepted Christ as their Saviour since the meetings began on the first of the month. One of the oldest citizens was heard to remark on the street yesterday, "I have been here nearly forty years, and during that time I have seen big revivals and little revivals, revivals in which many were converted and in which few were converted, but I have never witnessed such an outpouring of the Spirit of God and such an ingathering of souls upon any meeting heretofore as I am now seeing in the meeting at the A. M. E. church." Twelve souls were at the altar pleading for pardon when the meetings closed last night. Some of the most hardened sinners in the city have been gloriously saved and are now hard at work to save their former associates. Dens and dives are being closed and the inmates flocking to the church to hear the gospel. The meetings are to continue throughout the month. Rev. T. M. Reeves. the conference evangelist, is rendering wonderful service in preaching and in song. The pastor, Rev. Bray, will preach Sunday night a special sermon, "If I make my bed in hell.

MEDICAL ASSOCIATION TO MEET IN RALEIGH IN 1914 Old North State City Will Entertain National Body of Physicians. The popularity of the National Medical association was strikingly shown at the last annual meeting from the number of invitations received from various sources asking for the convention in 1914. Among the cities which sent invitations through their representatives were St Louis, Atlanta, St DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JAN. 31, 1914 PROF. SPINGARN SCORES GREAT VICTORY IN ST. LOUIS. RACE MUST FIGHT FOR RIGHTS At the second meeting called at UnionMemorial church Tuesday to perfect an organization of a branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Dr. Joel E. Spingarn scored the Globe-Democrat for its garbled report of his address before the City Club, and the press generally for its failure to take cognizance of the meeting which was of vital concern to so many thousand of our citizens. He branded the Globe-Democrat's article as a pure fabrication. A temporary organization was effected with Dr. W. Sampson Brooks as chairman and Mrs. Maud Tanter as secretary. This meeting was the culmination of the interest aroused at the meeting of the night before. Never have the Negroes of St. Louis gathered upon such a notable occasion fraught with such momentous concern: striking epochal. Greater thousands swarmed the coliseum to hear Booker T. Washington his gospel of industry, but no assemblage of Negroes in the history of the city were ever swayed by such potency of an earnest, courageous man's advocacy as were those at St. Paul Chapel, Tonday night who came to hear Dr. Joel E. Spingarn, chairman of the executive committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Without preface or preamble, Dr. Spingarn addressed him self directly to the delivery of the message that has prompted him to travel throughout the country, an apostle of what he aptly terms the New Abolitionism. His opening words were a clarion note of admonition and courage to the black men of St. Louis. He declared "there is no Negro problem, but an American problem: whether nine-tenths of the nation will treat the other one-tenth with justice and fairness." Rising as grandly as did sainted old William Loyd Garrison in the days when he fought for the abolition of chattel bondage, Dr. Spingarn emphasized that "unless Negroes are brave, white men cannot realize their dream for an ideal republic. You must be brave in contending for your rights. One stroke of Lincoln's pen gave you freedom, but gave you nothing else." He declared that the race, led and advised by leaders of both races had engaged itself in the tremendous task of getting wealth, believing that with its accumulation would come all else he sought. "In the half century since freedom, you have amassed a billion dollars in real and personal property. Misled by men who are traitors to your cause, who have betrayed you, you have been working and forgetting while the white man has been working and remembering. The result is we find 9,000,000 Negroes shorn of every right almost which the constitution of the nation guarantees to every citizens." Dr. Spingarn urged the Negroes to organize, to join hands with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "White men are working with you, but when society develops to the place where it can have black leadership, we will continue to fight by your side for all the rights that white men enjoy. The candle lights on the altars of freedom are burning dim; but we intend to take the few glimmering tapers and light each flame until ninety million candles shine out on the altars of liberty, a universal beacon of justice and equality." The following epigrams were used: "What's the use of making money if you "What's the use of being rich if you're "There are no rights of men, only high "I have come to prepare you for the o of the new abolitionism is: fight for you love and justice will stand besides you." "Economic power without political po "Men who tell you to work and forg traitors to your cause." "Negroes have been betrayed by the party tags." "When women get the ballot and lear lieve they will show more sense than th "Stand for all men who are for human all men who are against them.

"What's the use of being rich if you're still a slave?" "There are no rights of men, only rights of men." "I have come to prepare you for the conflict. The gospel of the new abolitionism is: fight for your rights and we with love and justice will stand besides you." "Economic power without political power is a myth." "Men who tell you to work and forget your rights are traitors to your cause." "Negroes have been betrayed by their own leaders and party tags." "When women get the ballot and learn how to use it, I believe they will show more sense than the men." "Stand for all men who are for human rights and be against all men who are against them. Have a black list and tab every man who lies to you and betrays your trusts." "Give publicity to all injustice and crime against your rights." Concord Literary Circle Reopens. The Concord Literary circle, in Brooklyn, has reopened for the fall. The young people are taking a lively interest in the work. President Walter K Taylor is to be congratulated on having for the opening meeting the Rev. E. G. Granville Sutton, pastor of the Liberal Christian church, Sierra Leone, West Africa, as the chief speaker. The Rev. Mr. Sutton is a charming speaker. His address was highly instructive. Mr. Sutton is in the United States on a visit, studying conditions among colored Americans so as to be better prepared to carry on the religious, educational and industrial work in which he is engaged among the people of his na- --- Justice as Remedy For Color Prejudice. Judge Marcus Cavanagh of the superior court in Chicago advocates the appointment of a national commission to combat prejudice against the colored people and wisely suggests that the remedy for the eradication of such prejudice is simple justice. B. O. Davis to Reside in New Mexico. Lieutenant Benjamin O. Davis, who has served in the United States army in various capacities as an official, has decided to make his future home in Rochitta, N. M. Lieutenant and Mrs. Davis spent the holidays with their friends in Washington. IMPORTANCE OF LAND MOVEMENT Agitation of Soil Ownership Is Not the Special Propaganda of Any One Individual or Race, but the Common Privilege of All—South Has Abundance of Idle Territory. By RALPH W. TYLER. Owensboro, Ky.—The "back to the farm" movement, which a few years ago was the pet hobby of Dr. Booker T. Washington, has now become a veritable slogan with the whites of this country. Quite recently prominent white men, members of boards of trade and chambers of commerce in the large cities of the south, appeared in Washington as a committee and petitioned the commissioner of immigration to turn the tide of foreign immigration arriving daily in New York form the great west to the southeastern states. This indicates that the whites want the vast area of unimproved farm lands in that section developed and they welcome the Italian, the Greek, Russian Jew, Slav, Pole or Hungarian immigrant to the south for that purpose. Once the tide of foreign immigration is diverted to the fertile southeast it will continue until all of the more than 78,000,000 acres of unimproved farm lands in that section are taken up and made to enrich the tillers and to supply the country will farm products, the insufficiency of which at present contributes to the high cost of living. What are termed the southeastern states include Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia, states whose colored population at present is 6,500,000, nearly two-thirds of the entire colored population of the country. Of this 6,500,000 in the southeastern states fully one-half is crowded into congested quarters of the large cities, where they must battle fiercely amid insinatory surroundings and prejudiced labor unions for an existence which promises no roseate future. "Back to the farm" is no longer the exclusive propaganda of Dr. Washington. Every state in the Union is emphasizing it by maintaining one or more splendidly equipped agricultural colleges, in which scientific farming is taught the young white men and women. It is emphasized by big white syndicates buying up farm acreage for speculation, in anticipation of the realization of this assured "back to the farm" movement. Alabama has 11,088,731 acres of unimproved farm lands, Florida 3,448,130 acres, Georgia 14,655,396 acres, Kentucky 7,844,596 acres, Mississippi 1,702,373 acres, North Carolina 13,626,073 acres, South Carolina 7,414,620 acres, Tennessee 9,151,173 acres and Virginia 9,625,578 acres. There is now a splendid opportunity for a co-operative movement among our people which will have for its purpose the purchasing of much of these more than 78,000,000 acres of unimproved farm lands in the southeast and to convert them into productive fields of truck crops, waving grain, stock ranches or rice and cotton plantations. Mississippi's soil will yield 121 bushels of corn to the acre, and South Carolina's soil has yielded over 200 bushels of this much demanded grain to the acre. Wheat, long considered the monopoly of the north and west, has been grown in Georgia and North Carolina, with a yield of fifty bushels to the acre, and in the southeast oats, another crop long considered exclusively indigenous to the plains of the north and west, have yielded sixty bushels and more to the acre. A false notion, too long holding him in fetters, has caused the Negro to regard the farm as the rightful sphere of the untutored and the crowded city the proper haven for those who have secured a smattering of the dead languages and a faint understanding of the Pythagorean theorem. The result has been that into the crowded cities Negroes have rushed only to find in most instances they can hardly have elbow room; that race prejudice increases in proportion as their numbers increase, and that the dreamed of future of wealth and ease is, after all, but a mirage which leads on to a muelstrom in which many ultimately found. State Historian A Natural History Society FIVE CENTS A COPY. The opportunity or a lifetime for cooperative purchase of much of these more than 78,000,000 acres of unimproved fertile farm lands of the southeastern states knocks loudly at the door of the race. It remains to be seen whether it will throw wide the door and admit this golden opportunity or lethargically dream on only to awake after the untutored but industrious hordes from sunny Italy, the bleak plains of Russia or the congested areas of Germany have pre-empted these millions of acres. Unless the Negro awakes to and seizes the opportunity before him he may be forced—that is the great majority of them—to repeat sadly: Cleon hath a million acres—not a penny L CAPABLE TRAINED NURSES. Open Field For Afro-American Women In Gainful Professional Service. Among the many highly competent trained nurses who are making their mark as leaders in their profession is Miss Mary R. Tucker, R. N., of Philadelphia. As a graduate nurse she has had considerable experience along various lines of nursing. She was superintendent of the nurses' exhibit at the emancipation exposition, held in Philadelphia last September. Miss Tucker is well informed in hospital and social service work. Her knowledge of the proper preparation of food for invalids and children has given her recognition from high authorities in the medical profession. She also has the most recent records showing the progress which the Afro-American graduate nurses have made. Perhaps no other field offers greater opportunity for professional service and profitable financial uplift for the young women of our race than that of trained nursing. They seem to have natural gifts for the sickroom, and MISS MARY R. TUCKER. wherever they have been given a fair chance in hospitals, homes and charitable institutions to demonstrate their ability they have made good. The hope is indulged that more and more of our young women may find employment in the hospitals, sanitariums, orphanages and similar institutions established for the betterment of humanity. Provident hospital, in Chicago; the John A. Andrew hospital, in Tuskegee, Ala.; Lincoln hospital, in New York; the Frederick Douglass and Mercy hospitals, in Philadelphia, and Freedmen's hospital, in Washington, are open fields for the well equipped trained nurse who loves her calling. Provident hospital, in Chicago, was founded twenty years ago with the purpose of affording colored women the nurse's training. It was then the only institution of its kind in this country, except the government hospital (Freedmen's), in Washington. Through its earlier years it was managed by colored people, and even to this time members of both races are on the staff and board of trustees. It is supported largely by colored people. Its endowment started from the pathetic bequest of an old colored woman, who dying, had just $50 to leave after providing for her burial. Her direction was, "Give it to two charities established for my people." One-half was given to Provident hospital. The hospital has graduated over 118 nurses and has now in training twenty-five colored women. It has cared for a total of more than 14,000 patients in the wards and 88,000 in the dispensary. These patients have not been all colored persons, but some of all races. From the standpoints of order, dignity and technical skill, the nursing force of this hospital seems to compare more than favorably with hospitals of the same size and class in other cities where the nursing is done by white women.

An interesting meeting of the Peoples' Sunday Alliance was held, Sunday afternoon the 25th inst. After the usual devotional exercises, a short business session was held and the following persons were elected to fill vacancies. To the board of directors, of which C. W. Buford is chairman and D. T. Gay and active member, were added Mrs. Holmes, J. A. Whittaker, Wm. Martin, Mrs. L. M. Froman and J. J. James. L. C. McKenzie was elected Secretary. There are some matter of special import in the year's activity and advancement of the Alliance that will come before the office directors at an early date. The numbers on the program deserving especial comment, were the reading of Judge Cavanagh's address before an Irish Society in Chicago; Rev. Henderson's address and lawyer Townsend's exposition of the Supreme Court decision in the Harris case. Mrs. L. M. Froman read Judge Cavanagh's speech in her characteristic, clear delivery and with appropriate modulation of voice. Many comments were passed on the excellent reading of Mrs. Froman. The speech itself was taken, by those who heard the reading, as an indication of the trend of mind of best men and women of the white race towards the Negro. Judge Cavanagh made no plea for an intimate social intermingling of the races but made a forceful appeal for simple justice in all matters touching the relation of the races. The plea coming as it did on an occasion when Negroes were not being especially addressed, not even guests, tends strongly to prove that his motive was pure. Lawyer Townsend's presentation of the Supreme Court's decision in the Harris case was comprehensive. Many facts not commonly known were brought out and his review of the whole matter was interesting from start to end. He also gave valuable information as to the effects of the ruling the high court, in remanding another trial, that was highly appreciated by his hearers. The time was so fully taken and so profitably used by the speakers, that the usual open discussion was omitted. It was announced that the board of directors had practically completed arrangements to have a number of our business men, come before the people and discuss the problems of Negro business endeavor, using their example. own special field of operation as an As on a similar occasion last year, ten minutes of pointed practical talk will be given by six persons actually engaged in the business upon which he speaks. The date for this convo- cation of the business people and the public, is February 22nd. The sub- jects discussed will be insurance, confectionery, contracting, the drug business, restaurants and millinery. The general outline is given thus early, that you may plan to be present. Those who cannot arrange to hear this discussion will be unfortunate, as the speakers will be con- petent to give valuable information. Fuller announcement will appear in "The Denver Star" soon. Keep in mind the time, February 22nd at 4 p. m., at the Alliance Hall, 2630 Wet- ton street. DR. H. H. JONES. MISSIONARY TO KLAY, LIBERIA. Marries Los Angeles Girl.

On December 8th last, Miss Gerlie Holiday, of Los Angeles, Calif., at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. R. Faulkner, related to our Dr. E. L. Faulkner, became the wife of Dr. Jones. The happy couple are well and enjoying the best of life. Dr. Jones inquired of a box sent him by Zion's Baptist church, which he never received. He desired to inform the senders of his failure to receive it and ask that they investigate. In his letter published in the Star, the white people paid $210.00 since his arrival there, instead of $2.10 as was incorrectly printed. The legislature is in session there now, and two American financiers are there seeking railroad privileges and franchises. Why cannot the American Negro go over there and conduct the offices, do the clerical, superintendent's and manager's duties; don't you see that these positions will be filled sooner or later, by American brain, and the Negro will be preferred.

Very true, I was a member of that committee, but knew absolutely nothing about same until about ten (10) minutes before they met the manager of the Theatre and was asked to accompany them.

RESULTS OF ORGANIZATION Expert Investigator of Conditions Among Afro-Americans In Many Sections of the Country Finds Evidences of Real Progress In Western City. Newspapers a Potent Factor. By RALPH W. TYLER. Indianapolis, Ind.-To the casual visitor to Indianapolis there is nothing seen at a glance among the colored people that attracts particular attention. The white man who saunters out Indiana avenue and observes the many groups of colored people on the street forms the wrong belief that they are the idle, indolent, loafing class of the city's population. To the person who comes here and carefully investigates and studies Indianapolis offers one of the most hopeful signs of Negro progress to be found in the north and the person who investigates and studies conditions cannot help but speculate on how much greater might have been the material advancement of the race if all along there had existed a live business organization to serve as a clearing house for business ideas and efforts. Heretofore there has been apparently no community of interests here, but rather "every man for himself" has been the prevailing sentiment. One who makes an investigating tour over this city is gratifyingly amazed at the very great number of Negro business enterprises. The congested condition of Indiana avenue is due to the fact that on and about this thoroughfare are located the greater number of business offices and that for a distance north, east, south and west of Senate street is the Negro business center. Indianapolis has had one great advantage in having a number of bright, progressive newspapers that have done much to advertise the city. The Freeman, the Nestor here of Negro journalism, with George L. Knox at the helm; the Recorder, with Editor George P. Stewart successfully guiding its destinies, which covers Indianapolis like a blanket; the World, which bears the imprint of Editor A. C. Manning's scintillating ideas and hustling spirit, and one or two other publications of merit. The editors of these newspapers have always been active in every effort looking to the betterment of the race. The erection of the Y. M. C. A. and the coming to this city as its secretary of that very capable, energetic and admirable man, Mr. Taylor, has served as a great stimulus not only to the moral and religious uplift of the city, but to the business activity as well. The Y. M. C. A. has become a center, and now its secretary is determined that Indianapolis shall have a live, influential Negro Business league and says the principles of the Y. M. C. A. are broad enough to house and inspire such an organization. In and about Indiana avenue, extending in four directions from Senate street, within four or six blocks are located eighty-four Negro business enterprises, perhaps a greater number in a like area than can be found in any other city. And Indianapolis is one of the very few cities in the country where the Negro has developed the manufacturing idea. Among the successful business men in this city are H. L. Sanders, the Martin Bros., Dr. E. N. Perkins, J. E. Earle & Co., J. Walter Hodge, Shelton & Willis and Ernest G. Tidrington. The professional men of Indianapolis have long enjoyed the distinction of being at the top in their respective professions. With J. M. Lott as the brainy leader, Indianapolis has a very clever set of Negro lawyers, Attorney F. B. Ransom being one of the most successful of the younger set. The medical profession is most ably represented, Dr. Joseph H. Ward, Dr. Armstead and Dr. Furniss and others forming a galaxy of practitioners of which any community might be proud. And in Professor Valentine Indianapolis has an educator the equal of the best and one to whom must largely be attributed the success of the schools of this city. With the talent and with the business establishments among our people to be found in Indianapolis, a proper molding of these into a great business organization would soon make Indianapolis the greatest Negro commercial center in this country. The business league as reorganized and rehabilitated inspires the hope that a greater community of interest will be fostered and that co-operation will succeed the individual success idea. Anniversary of Lincoln and Douglass. The birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and of Frederick Douglass occur in February. Arrangements for suitable celebrations in honor of the great work for human freedom accomplished by these two famous Americans are already under way in many parts of the country. Such anniversary meetings should serve to inspire and rekindle in the breast of every Afro-American a determination to make full use of the opportunities which he has as a direct result of the fearless stand taken by Lincoln and Douglass for human freedom.

George E. Wibecan, chairman of the commit- tee having charge of the arrangements for the celebration, presided ‘The hymn, “Love Divine, All Love Excelling,” a favorite of Mr. Beecher, was sung, and the invocation was giv- en by Rev. Dr. Holland Powell. ‘The special music for the occasion was Le ie : Z — te 3 att aS { ae se 4 r \ ae ‘4 \_ ae E 9g Be suas iain skiGoee sung by a choir made up of singers from the various church choirs, vader the direction of Mr. 1. Albert Myers. |Ainong the antheins sung by the cuolr, which were a!so. favorites of the noted preacher, were “Who Are These \rray- ed In White Robes?" (Stainer), “Thou Lamb of God” (Wagner) and “O Ye That Love the Lord” (Coleridze Tay- lor). General Horatio ©. King. clerk of Plymouth church for nuany years, made the address of welcome fn ‘a brief but thrilling story of some of the historical facts connected wit the ehurch which ovcurred dri Mr. Beecher's pastorate of forty years. General King’s reference to “V'inkle,” the litte slave girl whese freedom was bought by Plymouth church, was both interesting and pathetic, fie wald that the night on which “Pinkic? was sold Mr. Beecher had the baske:s pass ed to raise the $800 to meet tue re: quirements of the bill of sie, the ehureh raised $£,500, paid the slave owner, gave “Pinkie” her freed ay and the rest of the money to “)iukle's" mother, The speakers of the eveuln: were Mrs. A.W. Hunton of this ciy and Professor Kelly Miller, dean of the college of arts and sefences. iioward university. Mrs. Hunton reviewed the work of Beecher as a preacher, antl slavery agitator and leader of thought in his day. She quoted many passages: from his speeches agatnst slavery and noted his deeds of kindness as « Chris- dan warrior. ‘The speaker ald a glowing tribute not only to Mr Beech- but to the members of Pl) mouth chureb and other heroes of human rights who fought that the colored race might have tts freedom as God Intended {t should have. Mrs. Hunton was loud in praise of the women of the race, who, she said. had stood loyally by the men, giving them ‘encouragement and bope through the fifty years of freedom which the race Is hos celebrating. ‘The progress which the colored people have made onder the most crue! and unfair treat- ment ever meted out to a people in a civilized country called Christian, sald Mrs. Hunton, fully justifies all that Mr. Beecher and men and women of bis stamp did for us. Professor Kélly Miller in bis address made the application of the teachings ef Mr. Beecher to the present condi- tion of the race in a masterly and scholarly production of facts. He based his discourse on the life of Moses in dealing with the children of Israel and what would have happened had Moses yielded to the selfish notions of the leaders at the king's court In- stead of casting the positive side of his life with his own people. Professor Miller emphasized the need of the right kind of education and the duty of die eduested to the rank and Mlle of the race. This thought the speaker illustrated by calling attention to the positive and negative signs in algebra. Mr. Miller is positive in his belief that were Mr. Beecher alive the kreat humanitarian wotld fight against race segregation in all of its phases Just as vallantly as he did against the Injustice of human slavery.

He has recently tilled a number of en: gngements in New Jersey and Penusst vanin. Among his most popular lec: tures are “The Three Greatest. Men of the Negro Race” and “Mr. and Mrs. Sambo.” eens IN RACE PROGRESS. Achievements Since Emancipation. What use has the colored race made of its fifty years of freedom? What are the signs of progress? What: are the econotic and social conditions that have tmportant meaning not only to the race, but also to the white man? What educational agencies are at work for the improvement of the whole southland? | Again, what tmportant role is tho race playing In the drama of agricul- tural development? What does the latest federal census indicate regard- ing the movement of the Negro from the country to the city and the rela- tive mortality of our people on the land and in the congested districts? What is the extent of the influence of the Negro press? These vital questions of progress and present day welfare are strikingly an- swered in the “fiftieth anniversary edl- tion” of the Negro Year Book, which has been compiled by Monroe N. Work, svho hus charge of research and records at Tuskegee Institute. Within 350 pages, bristling with thought provoking facts, there 1s told A wonderful story. of the development of the colored American during fifty Fears of freedom—years of opportu- nity. struggle. perseverance and faith in God. While figures cannot adequate- ly convey the real meaning of the ad- vYancement of a people who have suf- fered much and won important vic- torles, nevertheless they do indicate, on the basis of established facts, the Present economic, social and religious trend of the race. ‘The figures quoted In the Year Book should interest those who are giving money to our schools and those who are urging men and women to invest in character building. Publicity should be given to the facts of our progress for the benefit of the average white man, who naturally knows little about the Negro as an individual capable of development. A great many regard him as a “problem” rather than ns a factor In national advancement. The facts should also be published as an inspiration to Negro youth who are only too prone to accept their parents’ dictum, who too often say, “You never can be nobody, nohow.” j|_ POMADE FOR THE HAIR {| =| We wish to advise our friends and customers that we have a full i J| line of Toilet Preparations, Perfumes, Manicure Supplies, Brushes | =| at every description, Toilet Soaps, Cutlery, etc. = } ;| The Denver Barber Supply Co. | 1 { 1527 Glenarm Street . | ) | | Phone Main 7221 Denver, Colorado | j POMADE FOR THE HAIR |: J FOMADE FOR THE HAIR |: .
