The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The independent, have been merged into The Denver Star ESTABLISHED The papers formerly TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 142 Rocking The Boat. Rocking The Boat. Negro and National Guard. Is it Jealously or Prejudice, or Both? The first person to lose his life in the Revolutionary War was a Negro, Crispus Attucks. The man that killed Major Pitcairn, British officer at Bunker Hill was a Negro. The first soldier to lose his life in Mexico, March 24th of this year was a Negro. The Negroes of this Country take great pride in the brilliant success of the Negro soldiers in the charge at San Juan Hill, Cuba in the Spanish-American War which made Teddy Roosevelt famous, and the fact that Negroes have fought bravely in every war in which the United States were engaged. He was with Jackson at New Orleans, with Perry on Lake Erie and with Col. Shaw at Fort Wagner besides 180,000 soldiers served in the Civil War. The Negro has never recoiled from duty, never faltered in hour of need in defense of his Country: he has no hyphenates among his race, they are truly deeply dyed Americans whose sufferings, sacrifices and patriotism have made him, a steady sturdy and faithful son, even tho mistreated from the President of the United States down to the constable in the Country. The question is, can his patriotism, love of country and loyalty to the flag rise above the mountains of injustices from a denial of civil rights; right to live where he can buy and enjoy his property, where sanitary conditions are the best, as well as over the henious burning, lynchings of his beloved women? The Negro well knows that an ounce of loyalty to the flag and all things dear to the Constitution of the United States during the Reconstruction period was worth pounds of patriotism such as is now experienced in the watchful waiting Congress and White House at Washington. Should Colorado Negroes want to serve their state, the place of their nativity, could they do it? Yes and No. They could do it possibly by raising a company, or regiment of all Negroes with probably white officers, but they could not serve Colorado because Colorado has a color-line when it comes to her native sons who plow her ground, till her soil, delve deeply into the bowels of the earth and extract her riches therefrom and who build up her cities carrying mortar brick and stone to erect her buildings; such citizens must go to the United States recruiting office, if Negroes care to raise a company artillery, machine gun corps, or medical assistants. Is not this treatment enough to rock all patriotism out of Colorado Negroes' boat? What assurance has he, after he has become the target for the Mexican and survived to get recognition for his service, either in higher ranks, in decent treatment in this warfare? Read the treatment received by the Ninth Ohio National Guard, (Negro) when they thought they would entrain and go to the front. The Cleveland News came out in an afternoon edition and said:— "We devoured every word of that story and here is what it said: "The four companies of the Ninth Battalion located in Cleveland, Dayton and Springfield reported at the mobilization camp today. These companies, composed of Negro troops, were not included in the mobilization order issued by the War Department, but were ordered here last night by Adjutant General Hough. It is understood that they are to be used in the work of preparing the mobilization camp for the remainder of the troops, who are expected to arrive Thursday or early Friday." We read this story over and over again. got red hot—cooled off—and then got red hot again. We tore our "editorial harangue' into tiny bits and prepared to write something else—not an editorial tribute though—but "something else." The dispatch says, "It is understood that they—the Ninth Battalion — Negroes — who were not included in the mobilization orders issued by the war department—are to be used in the work of preparing the mobilization camp for the remainder of the troops, after which they will be relieved of duty." It may be interesting to note right here that white Recruits are being eagerly sought by the various companies—to be used in the work of "Preparing Camps"—but presumably to go to Mexico to Fight for Uncle Sam. We are not deeply worried over the action of the war department in slighting the Ninth Battalion of the Ohio National Guard, for there are undoubtedly enough white Americans "under arms" to deal successfully with Mexico. But what strikes us as "particularly funny" is that after years of training, about the only use the "powers that be" can make of the Negro Battalion is to Prepare Quarters for The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 the desired defenders of America's rights—and then go home—sit down and build "Air castles" about the "Glory of Service" in time of war for one's country. Isn't it comforting? About as much so as the thought of putting one's boy thru years College training to prepare him for a "Porter's Job." That the American Negro is a patriot cannot be denied. "He is not a creature of passion." "He pours no poison of Disloyalty or Anarchy into the arteries of our national life." It is not necessary for us to blush and admit that. He, the American Negro—is a loyal, patriotic, undiluted American! New York Mayor Declares That He Exclusive Organizations of People Hurtful. New York, June—Mr. Mitchel objects to the organization of a regiment of troops to be composed exclusive citizens of German birth, made public today a letter which he replied to the gestion of a German resident of this city that a regiment organized. The mayor in his letter that he was the opinion it would be hung to draw racial lines in An Yet he is Not Wanted by the present powers that be, to fight for His Country, while those born under other flags can, if they so desire, even with first naturalization papers—join the ranks of the 'on to Mexico' battalions—whatever that means. This is a terrific blow at the vitals of the Negro's patriotism, a blow that is aimed straight home! It tells the Negro members of the Ohio National Guard they are Not Wanted except for Preparing camps for the 'Soldier-gents' who are to fight the battles for America's rights. But, in spite of this, the bat talion answered the call of Duty, prepared to perform that duty, whatever it might be! All Honor to them! Even though they may never see a battle front, never be given the opportunity to defend their country in time of war—they are Soldiers of whom any country need not be ashamed and the flame of Patriotism still burns within their breasts. The Advocate feels safe in asserting that no member of the Ninth Battalion Infantry of the Ohio National Guard or no member of the Negro race—will ever be numbered among 'The Creatures of Passion, Disloyalty and Anarchy' whom the President desires "crushed out. We have had our say!—Advocate, Cleveland. Prejudice in the National Guard. The case of Chas. M. Steinert, a Jew of this city, who states that he was barred from membership in the National Guard because of his race, gives us to know that we are not the only race so discriminated against. It will not be interesting to watch how the Jews will fight this matter. Already a lawyer has been put on the job, and you may rest assured that enough money and influence will be put behind him to carry the issue through successfully. When it becomes generally known among the Jews of this city that they are barred from the New York National Guard, we pity the fate New York Mayor Declares That Exclusive Organizations of People is Hurtful. New York, June—Mayor Mitchel objects to the organization of a regiment of troops to be composed exclusively of citizens of German birth. He made public today a letter in which he replied to the suggestion of a German resident of this city that a regiment be organized. The mayor said in his letter that he was of the opinion it would be hurtful to draw racial lines in American military affairs. "I would deprecate the formation of a regiment composed wholly of men of any one nationality, he added, "whether they be German, French, Italian or Russian, as this might tend to draw the very racial lines which I believe ought to be avoided. I suggest that you urge your men to join the regular organizations of the National Guard or such other organizations as may be recruited by the federal authorities. Sometime ago we published an article from the (Macon Telegraph, Ga.) which gave an account of the arrest of Burton Smith, a prominent lawyer of Atlanta and brother to Senator Hoke Smith, on a most serious charge. Strange to say, this important bit of news appears to have escaped the notice of all the Atlanta papers and most of the prominent papers of Georgia, except the "Macon Telegraph." Just how this news remained unknown in Atlanta and got down to Macon will, we suppose, remain one of the unexplained mysteries of Georgia. According to the "Macon Telegraph," Burton Smith is charged with an offense to which Negro criminals do not stoop. A colored regiment has been organized in Philadelphia, Pa. and more than five hundred young colored men have enlisted. of the men who are responsible for the discrimination. The tremendous Jewish financial power will be brought against them and they will either surrender or be crushed. Here is the great difference between the Jew and the Negro: when we are wronged we have to go and beg and plead for a little justice; the Jew demands, his money enables him to do it. The wise thing for the Negro to do is to form as close an alliance with the Jew as is possible, so that the latter in fighting for his own rights will, in some degree, fight for ours also. This was the case in the splendid civil rights bill which was passed in this state.—New York Age. MASONS CELEBRATE ST. JOHN, THE BAPTIST'S DAY MASONS CELEBRATE ST. JOHN, THE BAPTIST'S DAY At Shorter Sunday. Queen City Band Led March Every loyal Mason in Denver in good standing was in line Sunday afternoon uniformed in conventional black with his Masonic apron. The devoted and patriotic Eastern Star and Heroines of Jericho were very prominent because of their dress and beautiful flower. The Queen City band gave first class music to the delight and marching pleasure of the Masons. Prominent in the front rank were District Grand Master Rector Grand Secretary Sprague. Grand Treasurer Little, closely followed by Chairman of SPENCER J. SMITHEA Retiring W. M. of Rocky Mt Lodge. Executive Committee, F. T. Bruce, Ex treasurer Johnathan R. Contee and Ex-Grand Master E. C. Tumlin. An ideal day was nature's bounteous gift to them. Starting with an Organ Voluntary by Mrs. G. N. Ross followed by Invocation by Rev. I. Harrison Wallace, the Master of Ceremonies, Oglesvie Lawson, W. M. of Rocky Mt. Lodge No.1, in a few well chosen words briefly paved the way for the progress of program on which appeared the reading of the Grand Master's proclamation by Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook. W. M. of Centennial Lodge No.4, next an Anthem "Prepare ye the Way" after which Mrs. C. E. Obryant read briefly of the Eastern Star and its functions and duties. "The spirit of Free Masonry" was handled by T. O. Mason in his own peculiar manner. Rev. Pope delivered an excellent sermon on the "Temple". What proved an innovation of the highest order was the singing of Mrs. Lizzie H. Cooper "Eye hath not seen". She possessed a rich contralto voice whose clearness and lucid intervals deeply impressed her audience, which gave hearty response. Miss Bertie Berlin, whose sweet and pleas ant personality, always wearing a smile simply captivated her audience before she sang a note and after she sang "The Lord is my Shepherd". A visible demonstration pervaded the crowded church. State history ▲ Not ural history Society FIVE CENTS A COPY. Handsome boquets of American fragrant beauties were given to each artist also to Mrs. C. E. Obryant. Master Atwell Rose carried the house with his expression and musical interpretation.

Lodge No. 1 and Centennial Lodge No. 4 with prominent auxiliaries, Queen of Sheba Court No. H. of J.Lone Star Chapter No. 15 and Evergreen Chapter No. 36. O. E. S. Perhaps no greater privileges and opportunities to rise to the highest mark in Masonry are given to young deserving and loyal men, than are given and offered in Rocky Mt. Lodge No. 1. At the recent election of officers O. Lawson, a young man of sterling qualities, whose record in Denver has been as an open book now heads the lodge as Master, while Senior Warden, John M. Anderson, whose ability for quiet, tireless work efficiency and results have made every member of the lodge sit up and take notice. When you see Jefferson Waldon whose very actions bespeaks his loyalty, faithfulness and punctuality, you are forced to acknowledge that he is just the man for Junior Warden. JAMES ANDERSON Senior Warden of Rocky Mt. Lodge. Wm. Sprague, the constantly elected Secretary for years has made an enviable record for a clear, efficient and pains taking bookkeeping system which is nearly flawless. Johnathan R. Contee shrewd business man whose ability to see, know and keenly appreciate a dollar was elected treasurer, which station he has held for years. Both Wm. Sprague and J. R. Contee are worthy men whose records are known while the younger blood in the lodge has been given a chance to make good and are doing all they can for the peace, prosperity and progress of the lodge.

This revival was considered the most successful of any ever held in Denver. In two weeks there were 52 accessions to the church. Mrs. Harris has done great work here. She comes highly recommended by the bishops and ministers in the East, and we think she is one of the greatest evangelists in the A. M. E. connection. There was an all day service last Sunday with basket lunch. At the afternoon service ten persons were baptized. Last Thursday afternoon the mass missionary meeting was largely attended. An address was made by Mrs. M. C. Harris. The discussion, "Home Missions," was led by Mrs. Lydia Ward, assisted by Mrs. A. E. Reynolds and Mrs. Olive Elliott. The juvenile choir sang and there were two scols and a duet. The annual picnic and excursion, July 27th, will be to att. Morrison instead of Elizabeth.

Denver's literatior cannot afford to miss this rare treat. Watch for announcement. The annual sermon of the Masonic fraternity was held from Shorter Sunday afternoon last under most favorable circumstances. The sermon by Rev. R. L. Pope, papers by Mrs. Corne O'Bryant and Mr. O. T. Mason solos by Miss Berlin and Mrs. Cooper, introduction and proclamation by Mr. O. Lawson and Dr. J. H. P. West brook, contributed to one of the best celebrations in the history of the craft. The new feature which caught the ear of the audience was the Denver band. SCOTT METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH. 803 26TH AVE REV. G. S. SAWYER, Pastor. 2401 Emerson St. Phone York 6182J.

C. A. NOTES. The executive board of the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. met Wednesday afternoon and decided to have two out-door meetings a month, the regular business meeting on the first Monday of every month and on the other Monday evening to keep open house. The vesper service of Sunday afternoon will be at the usual hour with Mrs. S. A. McGuire as hostess. The matter of a tennis court is still undecided but it is hoped that a suitable location will be secured soon. Come and bring your friends to our Monday evening meetings and to our Sunday afternoon vesper service. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. Mr. J. L. Boykin has organized a club of boys into an orchestra which is known as the "Y. M. C. A. Band." Already fifteen members have poined and the applications of others are in. Any boy of good behavior can join the club. He will be required to pay one dollar on his instrument on joining, and 25 cents each week until it is paid for. Mr. Boykin is greatly pleased at the progress of the boys. The croquet sharks were somewhat broken up last Saturday afternoon, and played in "broken time." Champion King was sick and could not be present at all. The players greatly missed him. In a game of singles Bell defeated Ross by a score of 3 to 1. Ross felt in high glee later on when in a double-handed game Ross and his partner scored one. Sims, the St. Joe champion, must have left his rabbit foot at home; for, playing singles with Bell at the closing hours of the day, he was defeated—indeed he was completely routed, the score being 5 to 0. Monday evening, just before the sun went down, Hanks and Williams, both sharks, strolled on the court, bringing Mrs. Hanks and Mrs. Williams with them. Mrs. Williams did not know the game, and as there were no other senior players present at the time, Bell was forced into the game, and he and Hanks against Williams and Mrs. Hanks. Mrs. Hanks, adopting the method of striking used by moss ladies, seemed as if she simply did not know how to miss a ball or fall to run a wicket; and it was by the cleverest sort of playing that Bell and Hanks won the game. Among the players for next Saturday afternoon are Messrs. Hanks and Williams, Sims, Ross, King, James L. Bell of the Denver Club, and a young man from New York who was formerly the champion of Wichita, Kan. The games will be called at 4 o'clock and close at eight. (The Y. M. C. A. Bell has been rung often, but the secretary cannot hear it.—Ed.) The men's meeting will be held next Sunday afternoon at four o'clock. Rev. Dr. Wm. R. Velte, pastor of the First German M. E. church, will be the speaker, his subject being "True Patriotism." All men are invited. At the first meeting of the month of June, Webster Temple No. 5, S. M. T. met and elected Sisters Nannie Johnson and Thelia Tucker Caldwell, with their Worthy Princess, Sister Mary E. Wade, as their delegates to represent them at the Grand Lodge session nof U. B. F. and S. M. T., which convenes in Pueblo July 19-21. School Color Line In Florida Fails. Judge Gibbs of the circuit court of Florida recently declared unconstitutional the Florida law prohibiting white teachers from teaching Negro schools and Negro teachers from teaching in white schools. He instructed the authorities to release the bondsmen of several sisters in charge of convent schools, who had been held for violation of the law. Judge Gibbs ruled that the state had no power over private schools and could not legally prohibit one race from instructing another race. Wonderful Tribute to Dr. Washington. The students and teachers of the Tuskegee institute have contributed the sum of $4,750.60 toward the Booker T. Washington memorial fund. This large amount shows their loyalty to the race and their esteem for their late chieftain in a most wonderful expression of love and veneration. Colorado Annual Conference Directory.

Vicksburg, Miss.—The local committee in charge of arrangements for the entertainment of delegates and visitors to the national Sunday school congress, to be held here from June 14 to 19, inclusive, announces that it is prepared for the task. Besides the information to be gained by attending the business sessions of the congress, the committee has planned a number of sightseeing tours and social functions. On account of the reasonable rates of fare granted by the railroads for this special occasion the attendance is expected to exceed that of any other annual gathering of the congress. The Sunday school and other religious workers in this section of the south are preparing to attend in large numbers. The program for the week contains many interesting topics, most of which will be led by experts in Sunday school management and methods of teaching. Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the congress, has given years of study to the plan of developing the organization along the most approved lines of religious work in its relation to children and youths of the teen age. This special study has resulted in a well thought out group of subjects embodying methods of teaching, discipline, how to make the Sunday school grow, how to conduct teachers' meetings, the business end of the Sunday school and how to keep everybody in the Sunday school busy, which he presents to the Sunday school congregants workers from year to year. That the Sunday school congress has proved its worth as a live agency for the diffusion of religious truth is attested by the fact that it matters not in what section of the country the annual meetings are held they are attended by thousands. As the work and workers increase in efficiency the wider spreads the influence of the congress spirit. The organization is a great lever of Baptist strength, skill and ingenuity. GOOD CITIZENS' LEAGUE. Interest Revived In an Organization Which Has Large Possibilities "The Negro race must not be treated as objects of charity nor granted any special favors. The colored people must be given a fair chance, but they should understand they must use that chance and toe the mark of their own responsibility as citizens," says the Kansas City Times in a recent issue. This is the central idea around which the Good Citizens' league, an organization for the betterment of the race, has been built. The league was organized several years ago and has an extensive membership in the middle west. It is about to be revived for an active campaign. The league is not political. Mrs. Marina P. Williams, a business woman, is president and national organizer. Associated with her in the work are Charles H. Calloway, an attorney; Otis Schackelford, author; T. W. H. Williams and Mrs. John Lang J. Dallas Bowser, for many years a schoolteacher, is treasurer of the organization. In May Mrs. Williams will go to Oklahoma, where the work of organization is first to be undertaken.

Mayor Works Silently and Pushes Ahead. Thru Mayor Speer's influence and kindness, Mrs, Robt. Sloan, the clerk of the Five Points Speer Club, went to work Monday morning, while T. O. Mason, the president of the club, went to work as watchman Friday morning last. Mr. V. B, Walker has already been appointed guard at jail as recog: nition given him for his service. ‘The Star is thankful for the disposition of the mayor to encourage those who, after election, are so soon forgotten. We understand that there are more good things ahead for us. The mayor works quietly but how eloquently are his deeds, speaking in behalf of our race. Notice how things have changed around the city hall since his advent into office. He is on the square and every inch a mayor. Thank you, Mr. Mayor, and we hope the good work will still go on. The press of the country ure very profuse in spreading on glory and giv- ing the members of the 10th Cavalry due recognition for their bravery, val- or and sacrifice when they chanced all for a country which cannot pre- vent lynchings of their women, burn- ings of their men, and which cannot give them decent treatment in the South while they are going to the bat- tle front. Think of a nation with such insurmountable strength of char- acter! Not many pepers of the coun: try condemned the lynchings and burnings which recently happened in Texas. They forgot about these grand qualities and fighting abilities of the Negroes.” Some of the Ameri- can people so soon forget when it comes to the Negro’s square deal, but thank God, there are others who are ever on the firing line and it is this great increasing class which gives the Negroes hope. May these Abou Ben Ahems increase. We love our country, tho she does wrong us The Colored American Review Une.) Company takes: great pleasure in announcing that it has secured the services of T.

SUCCEEDING IN NEW FIELD. New York.The Rey. Richard Man uel Bolden of this eity, who was for several years the successful pastor of “Mother” Zion ALM. BL church, is one of the most progressive youns min isters in this section of the country. He is the author of the creed snd cove nant of the Emmanuel Church tu the World and the pastor of the Emman nel chureh here. The Rev, Mr, Bolden was assigned 6 a church of the A. M. EB. Zion de- nomination at Yonkers, N. ¥., by one of the bishops while he was in charge of “Mother” Zion chureh in this city He consented to the change, but when he went to the Yonkers church he found conditions which did net war rant his becoming its pastor. There wits much controversy over the mat sequently charged with insuberdina tion. ‘The case was tried by the proper au thorities and resulted unfavorably. to Rev. Mr. Bolden, who appealed from | the decision. ‘The case on appeal will be tried at the session of the zeneral conference of the church which is be ing held this month (May) at Louis ville, Ky. The Rev. Mr, Bolden, how ever, is not attending the couference nor taking any part in the trial per- sonally. He decided long azo to give up the ease on appeal and abide. by the decision of the conference. In speaking of his trouble the Kev Mr. Bolden says “I desire publicly to Unink the Rev FM. Jacobs, D.

Ax is well known. all my early training, as well as op portunities for religious and civic serv. ices, came to me through the A. M. E. Zion church, for which 1 am very grateful. If, as facts will show, con- spirators worked to injure me be- cause of my kindly but dangerous knowlede of this case and should un- ceasingly try to discredit me, then there Js no need of my wasting more time and money chasing the rainbow of hope, “1 want further to thank my friends In Zion church and throughout the country in general for their kind thoughits of me. 1 also want to assure them that 1 tost reluctantly yleld, without further protest on my part, to the will of my persecutors, whatever Joy or glory they may derive from such a relentless attitude toward me, in the name of him who sald, ‘Love ye one another as 1 have loved you.’ If the bishops and others in authority feel that I have been treated’ justly 1 | am willing to leave ft to them and ‘their consciences.

By N. BARNETT DODSON. Brooklyn.-The movement recently started in this city to form an organization to be known as the Students' club is succeeding admirably. The aim of the promoters is to have all the girls in the various high schools unite in one body for mutual self help so as to more effectively accomplish their work as students and also as a preparation for the larger and more responsible duties which await them as teachers and leaders in other lines of race advancement. The movement here is headed by Mrs. Addie W. Hunton, special worker 1930 for the general Young Women's Christian association and other W. W. C. A. workers officially connected with the Lexington avenue branch of the association. The preliminary work has been carefully done and a permanent organization has been formed with a large membership. The officers of the Students' club are: Miss Edna James, president; Miss Theresa Brooks, vice president; Miss Ida Collins, secretary; Miss Lucy Lark, assistant secretary, and Miss Thelma Marshall, treasurer. As soon as the club outlines the various phases of its work it will further increase its membership by having all the other girls of the grammar schools become members. Maude Bulkley, secretary of girls' work at the Lexington avenue branch: Mrs. A. W. Hunton, Miss Chase, Mrs. R. P. Hamlin and others have given the girls splendid encouragement in their efforts to put the Students' club on a substantial footing. Mrs. Hunton is the wife of International Secretary W. A. Hunton.

HUNTON. PETER H. one of the most capable and best known of the women of our race engaged in the Young Women's Christian association work. Mrs. Hunton has been holding parlor meetings in the interest of the Y. W. C. A. in this city for several weeks, through which much interest in the association has been created. Among one of such meetings to be held at various times during the month of June will be that scheduled for June 16 at 1621 Pacific street. The Students' club movement has not only met with a hearty response from the girls, in whose interest it is being fostered, and the parents of many of the members of the club are showing unusual activity and have voluntarily offered to co-operate with Mrs. Hunton and the other leaders to make the Students' club a potent factor in the life of the community. Aside from the parlor conferences a mammoth mass meeting will be held at Memorial hall on Sunday, June 25. With such co-operation as mentioned above and with such able and experienced leaders as the club has it must succeed. It is believed that no movement within recent years having for its object the personal welfare of so many girls possesses such qualities for accomplishing so much real good as is true of the Students' club of Brooklyn. Competent Census Bureau Employees. The statistical tables of bulletin 129 giving the death rate among the colored population in the United States were prepared by three men of our race who are employees of the bureau of the census—Mr. Charles E. Hall, whose assignment covered population and occupation; Mr. William Jennifer, agriculture and religious statistics, and Mr. Robert Pelham, morality and ownership of homes. The work of Messrs. Hall, Jennifer and Pelham bears the stamp of accuracy, palstaking and efficiency and is a credit to the department, themselves and the race.

TUSKEGEE MAKES STEADY ADVANCE Great Southern School Registers Notable Year's Work. MISS SCOTT SALUTATORIAN Commencement Season Is One of Happiness, Intermingled With Sadness—Governor Henderson and State Superintendent of Education Feagin Attend—C. H. Gibson Valedictorian. By CLEMENT RICHARDSON. Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.—From beginning to end the recent commencement exercises of the Tuskegee institute had that snap and go which have characterized them for the past twenty years. The first exercise of the season began with the intersociety declamation contest, held in the auditorium of Tompkins hall. The contest this year A. MISS CLARISSA MAE SCOTT. had a peculiarly added interest because of the substitution of the cash prize for a medal. For a number of years B. H. Warner of Washington has been giving the medal to be awarded to the student who delivered the best declamation. This year money was substituted for the medal. The prizes were given by members of the Alumni association and by one of the teachers. The money offered was $17.50, being three prizes, the first of $10, the second of $5 and the third of $2.50. The first and second prizes were made up by members of the local alumni association—namely, Miss Sarah L Hunt, Captain B. F. Ammons, Captain W. A. Richardson, Captain Victor H. Daniels and Mr. Isaac Fisher, president of the local alumni association and editor of the Negro Farmers and Messenger. The third prize of $2.50 in gold was given by Mr. R. A. Marsden of the English department. The commencement sermon was preached by Dr. C. B. Wilmer, rector, St. Luke's Episcopal church, Atlanta, Ga. Dr. Wilmer's sermon was full of inspiration and courage both for those who were going out and those who remained. His address to the senior class was one of force and point. The commencement Sunday exercises were followed by the annual Phelps hall commencement, held in the institute chapel. The dean of the department, Rev. G. Lake Imes, with his assistants, had drilled the students on community work and social service, the kind of work which they had been following throughout the year. The annual Boston Trinity church prize speaking contest was held also in the institute chapel. For this speaking two prizes are offered—the first prize of $25 and the second of $15—given by the Trinity church, Boston. The contest was between the members of the A-middle and the members of the senior class. This year 128 students tried out in the first preliminary contest. Commencement day, Thursday, May 25, began at 9 o'clock. There was a little change of custom owing to the additions to the program. There were trainloads of visitors and friends from Montgomery and Opelika and other points in the state and from many of the cities in the north. For the first time in the history of the Tuskegee Institute the two commencement speakers having the highest honors were children of members of the Tuskegee Institute faculty. The salutatorian was Clarissa Mae Scott, daughter of Emmett J. Scott, the secretary of the school, and the valedictorian was Charles H. Gibson, Jr., son of Charles H. Gibson, Sr., the chief accountant of the institute. Miss Scott's subject was "Beautifying the Rural School Grounds." After welcoming the visitors and friends and referring in a touching and graceful way to the absence of Dr. Washington, the young lady announced her theme. She stated that beautifying the rural school grounds was vital not only because of its attractiveness, but because it taught lessons to the community and rendered the people content where they were. As is the custom at Tuskegee Institute, all the papers except the valedictory were illustrated. Miss Scott had the orchestra stand of the institute converted into a landscape—that is, the stand was covered with a thick layer of earth of various kinds. Here she demonstrated by han dling spade and rake how to grade a walk, how to plant flowers, how to lay off and plant a garden and how to plan a school playground. Then, coming down from the orchestra stand, she took a willow basket which had been made by a young lady who had the subject of handicrafts and, putting in moss and herbs, planted several ferns and other flowers. When she finished planting these in the box she hung the box up in the dining room, which also came into one of the subjects of the theme. Following the discussion of the rural schools, Herbert Lee Clark of Auburn, Ala., showed how a rural school should be built. He pointed out the value of having at least three rooms, in order that industries as well as literary subjects could be taught and to the end that the three rooms could all be converted into one and large audiences accommodated when the occasion demanded. The third speaker discussed the subject "Teaching Rural Handicrafts." This young lady, Miss Tommie V. Gaunitt of Tallassee, Ala., showed the value of having handicrafts taught in the various rural communities. The main point of her paper was that out of shucks, of willows, of splits, of pine needles and such other wood and grass, as are ordinarily thrown away, the farmer, if taught, could make a number of useful things. Alfred Xuma of Engcob, South Africa, spoke on "Problems In Poultry Raising." He demonstrated to the audience how to test eggs, how to feed chickens and how to manage an incubator. He pointed out in his paper that Montgomery county alone had imported $200,000 worth of poultry products during the past year. Herbert R. Gaillard of Charleston, S.C., attracted a great deal of attention by showing how plumbing could be done in a rural cottage—that is, how the farmer's wife—and the farmer, too—could have water in the home and have their stock watered around the house rather than going down to the spring or brook. "Lessons In the Production of the Sweet Potato" was discussed by Emanuel Lisk of Brookhaven, Miss. This again was a practicable theme, applicable to Tuskegee institute and to the whole south. The point in this paper was not so much in raising sweet potatoes, which every one could do, but preserving them. The young man bad on the platform a wooden structure, or pit, in which the potatoes could be preserved through the year, and also a wooden device showing how sweet potatoes could be sprouted earlier and thus get the crop planted earlier. "Serving a Rural School Dinner" was the subject of Pauline A. Wiley of 1914 CHARLES H. GIBSON, JR. Pine Bluff, Ark. Miss Wiley had on the platform a dining room table, which during her discussion she set up and decorated with wild flowers; then she read off a meal which sounded more like one at Delmonico's than at a rural school meal. Yet, as the young lady pointed out, the meal was perfectly possible, for everything she used was grown on the farm. The valedictorian, Charles H. Gibson, Jr., of Tuskegee institute, spoke on "Training the Country Boy For Life." As Miss Scott had outlined each subject in her salutatory, so Gibson summarized each in his valedictory before discussing his own subject. He pointed out that boys and girls taught in the way suggested by these subjects would be happy, intelligent farmers, independent of city life, surrounding themselves with all the conveniences of any people. After the singing of the "Anvil Chorus" by the institute choir, under the direction of Mrs. Jennie C. Lee, the inaugural exercises began. Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, principal of Hampton Agricultural and Industrial institute made the first formal address. He was followed by Dr. H. T. Kealing, president of the Western university, Quindaro, Kan., who spoke on behalf of institutions for the education of Negro youth. The principal elect was then presented and delivered his inaugural address. He was greeted with enthusiastic applause from students, teachers and visitors. It seemed really like welcoming an old friend, because Major Moton is not only well known at Tuskegee institute, but has been considered in a way as a part of the Tuskegee institute family for many years. With the short addresses delivered by Hon. Charles Henderson, governor of the state, and by the state superintendent of education, Hon. William F. Feagin, and several other distinguished visitors, the commencement season closed.
