A large crowd of Sunday ex cursionists were here Sunday We welcome the world, Spring field is a good town to visit, de. spite the despicableness painted by the daily papers, whose prime object seem to be the disgracing ard painted black, the colored people because, occasionally, a colored man does a foul crime, not dissimilar to that of othe: people, however. The Value of Manual Training The great importance attached to Manual Training, or industrial education isincalculable Every | school, college and university over the laud are \urning special attention to this feature of edu cation, Ivis not ouly an econ. omical necessity. but an absolute factor in the physical develop ment of the pupil. Manual training is the essential factor in the future progress of the colored man. It creates in the child not only a desire to work, but love for work and high- er and nobler aspirations, The average boy and girl does not kuow anything about domes— tic work absolutely necessary for their immediate benefit, The Lincoln Manual Training School of this city will fill a long. felt want and be a blessing to the city. People who do not take advan tage and send their children there are in their own ijight and will discover their error when. it is too jate, Facts, Versus The Allegations If the daily papers were as eager to get the facis and would put them in large print in con Spicuous places \ike they do the allegations, this city would not suffer so greatly from the result of bad advertising If the press would use a little more diploma— cy ard decency and have a little more mercy on the alleged cul- prits, they would serve a long felt want, Last Saturday night 2 colored men were arrested alleged to have cut and robbed semebody. The men were arrested and in carcerated, then a lot of hood- lums started a sensation Cries of lynch are said to have been made, and with this irrelevent testimony, the papers come out and make a statement that these men committed the crime and are In jail, ete. The daily papers are quarrel. ing with Decatur and other sister cities because these people speak of Springfield as being so bad, and yet these same lccal papers do more than the ignoramuses who stir up mob violences, by going off half.cocked whenever a negro is concerned. It is becoming intolerable and the negroes should wage a liter— ary war for their safety We fail to see the wisdom in emphasiz ing and accelerating these trivi- alities. People will get so indignant over this matter that they will rise en masse and demaud a cess. ation. The truth about the whoie matter is that these fellows had not robbea any one, yet a lot of idiers and mischief breeders were permitted to stir up their anger and arouse other peop.e to mut. iny. We hope the daily press will be fairand print only authenti- cated matter—it is a pity it were not otherwise, Let us give ev- ery man his jus: deserts. The 3rd Ward Alderman was alleged to have attempted to com mit rape, but nothing sensational has been printed. Roosevelt Returns Ex President T, Roosevelt, af- ‘er one of the most reknown hunting expeditions and lectur-. ing tours over Africa and Bur- ope, has returned to his home at Oyster Bay, being received at New York with enthusiasm and pomp He is a most remarkable man and every utterance he mukes is listened to with care and given special credence He is spoken of as a presiden- tial probability. 4 Big Shows in 1 1. |\CLEAN 2., DYE 3.'

DECATUR, ILLINOIS. Decatur News. Mr. Howard Thompson, of Nashville, Tenn., who has been attending the University of Indiana, returned to Decatur last Sunday to spend the summer vacation. Misses Johnette Clanton, Gertrude Dansby, and Mr. C. L. Watkins, Supt. of S. S., left for Paris last Wednesday as delegates from St. Peter's A. M. E. Sunday School. Rev. J. T. Morrow, J. W. Woodford and Robert Ernest left for Paris last Tuesday to attend the district conference. Mrs. E. L. Rogers, of Springfield, was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Watkins last week. The Rosebud entertainment given by Mrs. J. D. Andrews and Miss Carrie White was a success, and the program was a treat. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Osby, 200 W. Elliott Ave., Springfield, Ill., wish to thank the pastor and members of St. Peter's A. M. E. Church, also the people who were so kind during the sickness and death of their friend, Mrs. Anna Scott, who died June 9, 1910. School days are over, what will the parents do with their boys? Above all things, keep them out of the streets, no good can come to boys who run wild in the streets from early morning till late hours at night. Politeness is a great lever for the success of any business. Too often we find it wanting in the every day walks of men and women, who depend upon the public for sustenance. All the legislation and segregation that may be made against the negro, there is one thing which cannot be taken from him, that is, his manhood. In all cases, let the negro be a man in every sense of the word. Nobody likes cowards and cringers. What way you think is best for the race, express your thoughts in a business like and gentlemanly manner. If this is done, you will always receive due respect from gentlemen. The young progressive negro who is climbing the mount of success has not the time to think what a few negroes think about him, especially those that have been here for 40 or 50 years and have never apparently done anything for their race. Instead of encouraging the young negro and speaking a good word for him, they do just the contrary; and are too quick to say that they are not what they ought to be; or he or she is not the man or woman I thought they were. When you search the records you will find a person of this kind whose morals in their youth were rotten to the core, and it makes no difference what they are worth in dollars and cents they are never willing to recommend one of their fellowmen for any thing in life. The length of time you live in a community does not make you a leader, but the life you have lived. I would give the following qualifications for a good leader: First, good morals from your youth up and should by all means be interested in the church of God and attend some church in your community; second, you should be sociable in every walk of life, and ever willing to do good for your fellowman and encourage every good move for the advancement of your race, and third, you must learn to take defeat and to allow others the right of difference of opinion. When you have such qualifications, or any two of them, the average negro will take their hats off to you, but not until then. H. A. WATKINS. Lincoln News. Captain F.
