It should because imperial Missouri, with her millions of industrious and prosperous citizens and her abundance of resources, physical mechanical and industrial, are behind and beneath her, directing her energies forward and upward. Last year the year just closed, 400 students, hailing from all sections were enrolled. Among them are to be found some of the best types of manhood and womanhood that in the embryonic stage give evidence of greatness in the various useful pursuits of active life. This very large body of students are demonstrating to the world that young men and women of color are suspectible to discipline of the most commendable character. Politness, kindness and close attentiveness are distinctly observable. The Faculty is composed of a body of men and women, who aside from being scholars of recognized abilities but have the enthusiasm of loosing themselves in the work in hand. A nobler aggregation of educators are no where found than that composing the Faculty of Lincoln Institute. Ideals of the loftiest conceivable are kept constantly before the students. Indeed, the student is so absolutely enveloped by an atmosphere of noble sentiment laudable purposes and progressive ideas until the very best qualities that lyeth within his breast are drawn out to their fullest limit. This institution has had many valuable additions made to its various departments during the past 5 years. A central heating plant Boys' Dormitory; Library and at present the new Girls $25,000 Dormitory is in active construction. The most important of all was the establishment of the Summer Normal for Negro teachers. This should and must raise the standard of our educational work thru out the state. Agriculture has been properly placed—made a regular course of study. Scientific farming must be effectively taught our people not only in the Agricultural but in all other schools. Most of us are adapted to this noble occupation. It stands our educators in hand to make of us intelligent and prosperous farmer. From the above, you may form some meager conception of the work carried on at Lincoln Institute. When criticisms are offered relative to management, discipline or any line of work here undertaken be cautious in entertaining them until you have visited the plant and have seen for yourself.
