He had requested that he be allowed to wear a tuxedo suit, but this had been denied him.

I am very glad of the inspiration and information as well as helpful contact with workers from several states And I feel that this experience will mean much to me in my future work. I am sure her friends will be pleased to know that Miss Laura Rowles made a very fine record in the school. She was chosen reporter for the class and also wrote the class' graduating mask and directed it. The class hymn, words and music was written by E. M. Barnes, who was also chosen musical director for the school. Many other things were of interest but I shall not tell all, but go on to Indianapolis, where I attended the National Association of Negro Musicians, to which I was chosen delegate from the Milestones Musical Association. This was a wonderful experience; also, which cannot be related within such a limitation as this or in years of conversation, but can only be transmitted to those who are interested enough to come into contact with it. I am trusting that the opportunity will soon come when I can give out some of the inspiration in a report to the musical forces of our city. I stopped over with Att'y F.

Sept. 11-It appears that the hand of providence intervened here when an effort was made to kleinup a Negro porter, said to be the first of its kind here in more than a year, became known to the police late Tuesday night. Charley Tidd, employed at a hotel in the downtown district, told the police that he was taken from in front of the hotel, while on the sidewalk, by four white men and place in an automobile, driven by another unmasked white man. Tidd said the car had been driven for some distance, possibly about 18 or 20 city blocks when it collided with another machine which was parked near the curb. According to the police Tidd said that the five white men tore the masks from their faces and fled as soon as the crash occurred, leaving him in the machine. Tidd told the police that he then climbed out of the machine and came to the police station to report the affair. TRUTH Truth, that precious gem of Heaven In its meek and humble state, That which gave the earth its beauty, Twas not murdered by the throng; But it fell within each nature, Transfixed by the darts of wrong. Wrong, instead has dominated Sways the sceptre o're the land; It has formed a mighty river That no engineer can span. Then away with your pretense of good, Vanished, wrongs, with polished show Studded with the gems offalsehood They're but sins as long ago. Times ne'er change the right's Conviction; Wrong for wrong is still absurd— Life for life and blood for vengeance, Is not written in His word. Then human scorpion, human adder, Human blood-hound, cease thy bay; Lest for you 'twill be the sadder Are You Aware? That many friends have been inquiring about my absence from the city during the pperiod from June 29th to the 5th of August and just what my engagement was? I shall take this opportunity to say a few words about some of the things that claimed my attention during the nearly six weeks' absence from the city My attention and time, first of all were taken by the summer school of the Play Ground and Recreational Association of America, which opened June 29th and closed July 18th at the Side Community House, Chicago, Ill. summer school is maintained during this time each year for the purpose of training workers in the recreation field; also those who are interested in the Community Service Work. Almost every phase and form of recreation work was taken up in this school, such as: community, music dramatics, games, athletics, art craft seasonable programs, and many others-All these are calculated to develop the community life thru the proper direction of leisure time. The use of leisure time very largely determine the character of the individual. So a well planned and directed recreation program is an absolute necessity for every Community. The heads of the school heartily approved of our Community Musical Program and offers to assis in establishing it in our city. They advised FIRE DOES NEARLY MILLION DOLLAR DAMAGE IN SHREVEPORT FIRE DOES NEARLY MILLION DOLLAR DAMAGE IN SHREVEPORT Shreveport, La., Sept. 11 More than 14 blocks in the residential section, mostly inhabited by Negroes, had been destroyed by fire at midnight.

Dr. Penn returned to visit the Association in its Chicago Meeting, and was introduced by President Dunas as the "father of the Association." In his address, he congratulated the Association upon its wonderful growth and said that in his judgement it was the most representative educational body of the Negro race. He stressed the importance of conservers were equally valuable, if we the Negro saying that "the promoter is a valuable man but recent conservers were equally valuable, if weences, must teach the Negro, that con are to hold our ground and make further advance."

At a conference in this city of the officials and leaders for Lynchburg and its Chamber of Commerce, Secretary I. Garland Penn, Cincinnati, Ohio outlined the planes of the Man's Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the establishment of a seminary for Negro women at some point in the South, preferably Lynchburg. As an inducement to locate the Seminary here, the City Council and Chamber of Commerce agreed to guarantee valued at $25,000. Five years ago the Society at its National Council in Detroit, Mich. agreed upon Lynchburg. As the City and business interests are now ready to make good its guarantees, it is expected that the National Council at its meeting in First Methodist Episcopal Church, Pasadena, Calif. in October will re-affirm the action taken at Detroit. The Seminary is to be a select college for Negro Girls offering degrees and open to students from any section of the United States. Its main support will come from the Woman's Home Missionary Society which is the organization of leading white and colored women of the Methodist Episcopal Church. This organization had an income last year of over two billion dollars. Concerning the guarantee made by the business interests of Lynchburg Secretary, Penn, said on leaving the city for Cincinnati, that it it was another evidence of the growing interest of white leaders in the higher education of the Negro and another step in promoting more cordial and friendly interrace relationships.

MODERN Christian Education and a steady battling of the Pulpit against all and any modern agency which does not line up fully within the sphere of established TRUTH offer the greatest hope to the steady welfare of the race. No of people can afford to give recognition and racial consideration to any agency which crys out for world-wide racial consideration and itself refuses to acknowledge the TRUTH can be influencial in gaining the ear of the world in the interests of a race. The verdict of the world has always been and always will be that a people who permit the truth to be slayed within their ranks must assume the position of secondary place in the onward march of civilization and submit to the supreme court of martial hordes its cause for such failures. Such was the ground that aroused the world against Germany and such will create the spirit that will stand as an obstacle against the progressive steps of the American Negro. Modern Christian Education and an increasing demand of the masses for THE TRUTH regardless of cost offer the best solution of many problems which now face the race. WITHIN then next two decades the vast problems which have for years confronted leaders of race will come up for greater consideration and so pressing will such demands be when presented that final solutions will be in order. This whether members of the race care to engage in making such solutions or not. Economic conditions which are being forced by unfriendly masses; steady inclination of factors within to disregard the voice of Education and Religion; Failure of the average member of the race to arrive at an appreciation of the value of MONEY; Lack of racial preparation along industrial and commercial lines to provide for the future employment of its steadily increasing ranks of unemployed members. Indicative lack of an positive action on the part of the masses. These are the things which must give food for thought as the race rushes steadily forward what must be the hour of final solutions when only the fruits of an HONEST IRESS, PERFECTED SCHOOL ROOM AND PULPIT CAN STAND BETWEEN the race an absolute ruin.
