course, slmply in ils diction and im-
pressive in its profoundness. It was
an intellectual feast and in the light
of the present day problema of pro-
gress and enlightment of the race, It
‘was worth while and very elevating.
The public owes much to Mrs. De-
priest, the president, and the Grade
Teachers Study club for having se
cured tho services of Dr. DuBols, A
great service was done the com:
munity,
‘This ia, we understand, the initial
and {introductory appearance of the
Btudy club. We trust ft wilt not
be the last, but a beginning which
‘will continue to bring befcre us those
of the race who are representative
and qualified,to the extent of giving
us enlightment and encouragement.
‘We need it. The sentiment and
thought created by this lecture will
lve for sometime. As Intellectual
lights, the teachers of our city
schools should be in the forefront in
all matters appertaining to the cultur-
al and educational Ife of the com-
munity, Thanks to the Grade Tench:

Mayor of Topeka
The latricate cogs of the great business machine, known as the City of Topeka, have been working smoothly, harmoniously and with the maximum efficiency.
With great improvements under way and planned for the current year it would certainly be unwise to make any change at this particular time—in other words it would be impractical and perhaps expensive to undertake experiments with this 65 million dollar corporation.
It is the function of the mayor of a city to represent that city officially before visiting conventions and associations of various kinds—the impression a visitor takes away with him is influenced largely by the way such city is officially represented before them.
