The Washington Tribune Virginia Wins Red Jackson Case All the News That's Fit to Print Virgin SILENT PROTEST PARADE AGAINST LYNCH LAW Over 1,500 March Up Pennsylvania Avenue Last Wednesday THOUSANDS WATCHED PARADE Many Prominent Citizens Joined Ranks and Carried Banners On last Wednesday afternoon a big silent parade marched down Pennsylvania Avenue and past the White House to protest against mob and lynch law in the United States. Altho rain threatened to mar the parade, a crowd of marchers estimated at about 1500 with about 200 automobiles fell in at the assembly grounds on Maryland Avenue. In the parade there were people from all walks of life, both old and young. Large crowds watched the silent marchers as they moved down the avenue carrying their banners. On one of the first banners in the parade was a picture of a man who was burned to death in the South. Other banners had printed signs bearing various sayings; some of which read: "Democracy or Barbarity, Christianity or Heathenism, Choose." "If you favor mob murder smile, If you believe in law and order, weep." "No other nation on earth roasts alive 15 year old boys." "The failure of the Anti-Lynching bill will officially condone mob murder." "The race is paid for 100 per cent loyalty by 12 lynchings in one month." The parade consisted of several divisions and was meld under the auspices of the Citizens Lynching Protest Parade Committee, headed by Mrs. Theresa L. Connelly, Rev. Walter H Brooks, and Shelby J. Davidson. The parade started at four o'clock and it required 25 minutes for it to pass in view. The mobilization of the paraders was done under the command of Major T. Dean and Captain Eugene L. C. Davidson. The parade was headed by a cordon of colored policemen and immediately back of them marched Major Arthur Newman and in the rear of them the organizations in their proper order. Among the prominent marchers in line was Prof. James Henderson, Mrs. Mary Church-Terrell, Editor J. Finley Wilson, Prof. Benjamin Washington, Rev. E. D. W. Jones, Mrs. Gabrielle Pelham, Assistant Superintendent Wilkerson, Mr. C. E. Howard, Prof. Wm. E. Joiner and many others. Many fraternal organizations took part and also a large number of teachers and school children. The police protection given the parade was perfect and spoke highly of the efficiency of the department and Supt. Sullivan. Not an incident marred the whole parade. That the parade made a very favorable impression was evident on every hand. It was one of the largest protest parades ever held in the District.

Made Record as Principal of Robert Gould Shaw Junior High School HAS COLUMBIA UNIV. DEGREE to also be Assistant in the Department of English The educators of Washington were surprised at the announcement made by the President of Howard University, last Friday, that Miss Lucy D. Slowe, principal of the Robert Gould Shaw Junior High school of this city, had accepted the position of Dean of Women and Associate Professor of English, in the School of Arts and Sciences, of Howard University, beginning with the fall term. Miss Slowe is a very popular educator of Washington and her resignation as principal of the Junior High School and acceptance of the position at the University provokes favorable comment. Miss Slowe is the first Dean of Women for Howard. Miss Tuck has been acting Dean for the past term. Miss Slowe is a product of the Baltimore city schools, having passed thru MISS SLOWE the grades and finished the high school there in 1904. She matriculated at Howard University in the fall of 1904 and finished with A. B. in 1908. During her senior year at Howard, Miss Slowe assisted Prof. Chas. C. Cooke, in English, in the College of Arts and Sciences. She was valedictorian of her class in 1908. Miss Slowe returned to Baltimore after graduating from Howard and taught English in the high school there for seven years, during which time she pursued post graduate work in Columbia University during the summer, receiving the degree of A.M. from Columbia in 1915. In November 1915, Miss Slowe accepted the position of instructor in English in the Armstrong Manual Training School. In September 1918 she became assistant principal of Armstrong. September 1919 Miss Slowe was asked to organize and develop what is now the Robert Gould Shaw Junior High School. She began with six teachers and forty pupils. In three years the teaching force has increased to twenty and the student force to more than 400 pupils. In 1920, Miss Slowe established the (Continued on page 8) WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1922 THE FIELD Armstrong Wins Competitive Drill Second Consecutive Time GIRL ACQUITTED OF MURDER OF N. C. WHITE MAN BIG DONATION GIVEN JOURNAL OF HISTORY Throng of 25,000 People Watched Cadets Display Skill MANY OFFICIALS PRESENT Felled Man after Having Attacked Her in Her Home News has just come to light of one of the very few cases of its kind ever recorded in the records of a Southern court. The trial of little Marie L. Drumright of Woodsdale, N.C., a 13 year old girl for the murder of Geo. Walker, a 68 year old white collector, resulted in her acquittal. On October 6, 1921, George Walker, a white collector, came to the home of Mr. J. J. Dumright while every one was out except Marie. Seeing the girl alone, Walker then attempted to rape the girl. The little girl fought off the brute and succeeded in getting out of the house. After getting out in the yard the man continued to pursue her. She seized a stick and used it in her defense as there was no one to come to her rescue. However, the white man was determined, and again seized the girl and she began to use the stick on his head and backed away until she had an opportunity to run in the house, but not before she had felled Walker to the ground by the force of her blows. Once in the house she locked the doors. Later she returned to the door to see if Walker had gone, and to her surprise, saw him still lying on the ground. She went out and upon investigation, found the man dead. She was arrested and confessed she killed him and stated as her reason that he had attempted to rape her. Four lawyers were secured to defend the girl. The state contended that others figured in the case, and arrested her father and grand-father and held them in jail for murder without bail. At the preliminary trial, Mary and her father were held for the murder under a heavy bond. At the regular session of the criminal court in May of this year, Marie's father was dismissed and she was tried on the charge of second degree murder. In charging the jury after the case had been closed, the Judge's charge lasted one hour and was very fair. The jury received the case at 10:30 A. M. and returned their verdict of not guilty at Winning Company Receiving Victory Badges Receipt of $50,000 to Greatly Stimulate Research Work Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the Director of the Association for the study of Negro Life and History, has recently secured $25,000 from the Carnegie Corporation and an additional $25,000 from the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial. This fund is to be used to further research in the neglected field of Negro History and to publish the results of such investigation. These substantial contributions mark a new epoch in the history of the Association. Whereas the work has heretofore been largely the effort of Dr. Woodson fighting the battle almost by himself it will now be possible for the Association to carry out a more intensive program and attain its important objectives. Beginning with the new fiscal year from July 1, 1922, to June 23, 1922, the Association will undertake the following: (1) To continue to edit the Journal of Negro History, a quarterly scientific magazine which has been regularly published since Januray, 1916. (2) To conduct research restricted at present to the efforts of one investigator in the field of the Free Negro Prior to 1861; another investigator in Negro Reconstruction History. (3) To train for this sort of work a few Negro students who will be given fellowships in accredited graduate schools with adequate libraries containing collections bearing on Negro life and History. The investigators will begin their work the first of July. Before the opening of the universities in the fall the students to undergo special training will be selected by the Committee 5 p. m. The verdict was received with much joy by both white and colored. Mr. and Mrs. Drumright with their daughter left Woodsda after the trial to take much needed rest in the North. They were in Washington a few weeks ago. Marie is an adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Drumright. Office: 920 U St., N. W. ckson Competitive utive Time Throng of 25,000 People Watched Cadets Display Skill MANY OFFICIALS PRESENT Battalion Honors and Third Place Won by Dunbar High Before the largest crowd of colored people ever assembled in Washington, Company "L" of the Armstrong Manual Training School, under the leadership of Capt. Powell Allen, marched off with a well earned victory in the annual competitive school drill, held Monday, at the American League Park. Second honors in the contest went to Company "D" of Armstrong, under Capt. Wilbur Webb. Company E of Dunbar, received honorable mention for third place. Dunbar High School companies A, B, E, F, and K, comprising the first Battalion commanded by Maj. Maurice E. Johnson, captured the Battalion competition which was a new feature this year. Company "L" brought victory to Armstrong for the second consecutive year and for the eighth time in the history of the school. During the years of inter-school competition, M Street, now the Dunbar High, has won thirteen times, and Armstrong eight. This was Junior High School's first year to compete in the drill. The flag of honor and the diamond studded gold medal along with the badges were presented by Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, member of the school board. Dr. Johnson by a strange coincidence, had the honor of presenting a gold medal to his son, Maj. Maurice E. Johnson, under whose leadership the Dunbar Battalion won Company H of the Shaw Junior High was presented a beautiful basket of cut flowers by a local florist. Previous to the presenting of the prizes, Lt. Col. Arthur Brooks, reviewed the cadet regiment. He was formerly the military instructor in the city schools. The judges for this year's drill were Capt. Sylvester Epps, Lt. Ulysses R. Browne and Lt. Cornelius A. King. Figures of the judges showed that the companies were very close in their ratings, with less than 2 points between the first and second companies. (Continued on page 8) Circulation Books Open To All PRICE 5 CENTS Case Attorneys to Make Appeal From Decision of Justice Hitz CASE WAS CLEAR CUT White Woman not Beaten Up as Alleged in White Papers Justice Hitz of the District Supreme Court, dismissed the writ of habeas corpus in the Red Jackson case Thursday afternoon and signed the extradition papers remanding the prisoner back to the state of Virginia for trial on an alleged charge of house breaking and attempted rape on a white woman. Attorneys Armond Scott and Royal Hughes immediately appealed the case. The hearings on the writ of habeas corpus began on June 5th. Attorneys for both sides introduced many witnesses. Attorneys Scott and Hughes built their case up on the grounds that Jackson was not in Virginia at the time of thealled rape, and that the charge of housebreaking was unsubstantiated and pointed out that the affidavit charging him with the deed did not even bear a specific date and did not state whether the deed was committed in the day or night. The alibi made by Jackson after he was arrested in the District and carried before Chief of Detectives Grant was substantiated by witness from Baltimore. This alibi was that he was not in Virginia on the afternoon a white woman by the name of Miss Hawkins was alleged to have been raped. His story was further corroborated by Detective Murphy of Baltimore who investigated the story told the Washington police. Attorneys for Jackson contended that he was not a fugitive from justice and pointed out of the court that Jackson was not positively identified by the white woman. This statement was verified by testimony given by Chief of Detectives Grant and Atty. Paul Lesch, personal attorney for Miss Hawkins. The case was the out-growth of an alleged rape on Miss Hawkins on March 21st at her home in Arlington County, Va., about 5 or 6 p. m. Miss Hawkins lived alone in a large house with grounds around it. No one saw the man who attacked Miss Hawkins besides herself and she has refused to positively identify the man held in the District. That the white papers greatly exaggerated the physical condition of Miss Hawkins at the time of the assault, was proven by the direct testimony of Mrs. Bula Day who lived just back of the Hawkins property and also worked for Miss Hawkism. Mrs. Day testified that she saw Miss Hawkins the morning following the alleged attack and that Miss Hawkins bore no scars except two slight bruises on both of her cheeks; she refuted the statement that Miss Hawkins had both eyes blackened and other scars on her neck. She stated that the white woman talked as if she was perfectly well and did not show any visible signs of being roughly treated. Commonwealth Attorney Pharr of Arlington County tried to interject some old southern practices in the case on examining Mrs. Day but was quickly called down by Attorney Hughes. Pharr asked Mrs. Day about some one stealing chickens on the Hawkins' place. He also used the word "darky" in addressing the judge and was also called down by Attorney Hughes as well as Attorney Scott. Pharr told the Justice that if sent back to Virginia, Jackson would receive an absolute fair trial and that no violence would result. Red Jackson is not the criminal looking man that the public would expect to see. He was dressed immaculately and looked as intelligent as any one in the court.

Dunbar Notes Miss Revella Hughes, lyrie soprano, a grdauate of the class of 1917, How- ard University Conservatory of Music, and now a pupil under Walter Kiese- wetter of New York city, delighted ‘the pupils of Dunbar Thursday after- noon ,when she appeared in a song recital The first group was composed of “Thank God for a Garden,” “At Dawning” and “Ah, Wondrous Morn,” the last written by Turner Layton, a former’ Washingtonian. This group was very well received by the enthu- siastic pupils. Miss Hughes resporid- ed to the applause that followed the group with “The Birthday,” by Wood- man, ‘The second group was “The An- swer,” by Terry, and “The Kiss,” a beautiful waltz song by Ardetti, “The Song of the Open,” by La Forge, was sung as an encore. The pupils of Dun- bar are already looking forward to hearing Miss Hughes again. Letter Day Luncheon was given June 13 by the Athletic Association to the boys who had won the privi- lege of wearing the Dunbar “D” for having played inj/the Champiogship games of the year, The menu was prepared by one of the Domestic Science classes under Miss Williams. There were about sixty guests pres- ent. Speeches were made by Mr. Smith principal, Mr. Russell, chairman of the athletic committee and by the va- rious coaches. Mr. Henderson con- ferred the letters upon the thirty- eight boys who had won this honor. Frank Trigg spoke for the boys. ‘The students of Dunbar had a dance on Tuesday afternoon, June 13, as an evidence of appreciation of the work of the Dunbar Cadets on Monday, in the annual competitive drill. On Wednesday evéning, June 14, the Senior class entertained its friends in a very beautiful dance given in the ‘achool armory. On Friday night, June 16, the Se- nior class will hold its class night exercises, at which time a part of the program will be the masque “Comus” directed by Miss M. P. Burrill. N. T. 8.

Radi- cal leadership or Conservative leader- ship? For years this has been a de- batable question, We have had both ‘types of leadership, but still the ques- ‘tion has not been settled. All though ‘the ages, even before the time of ‘Christ, radicalism has been a factor ‘to be dealt with. . Let us first determine what radieal- ‘ism really is. In America we have what is called a conservative group, which at present appears to represent ‘about nine tenths of the total popula- tion, This group peacefully goes a- long day after day obeying docilely, he laws and customs as they find them. ‘These laws and customs as the conservatives observe them, are their ideals. Because the other tenth of the population objects to many of these laws and practices and strives to secure changes in them, the conser- yative group labels them radicals. Therefore, a radieal may be anyone who disagrees with the conservatives’ law either as law, or the lack of its enforeement, when custom over-rides the law. In America the Negro who dares speak out about the injustices of the American law or practices, is labeled a radical by the whites. The society or organization that dares plan cru- sde against such injustices, is called radical. 7 When the Soviets overthrew the Czay’s regime in Russia and placed Lenine at the head and freed the peasants from the yoke of oppression, the whole world immediately called them radicals. ‘The French peasants who revolted against any further oppressien from unjust kings and staged the bloody French revolution, were called radi- cals; but it was the people that they put out of office who gave them that name. So the applying of this term to the Negro who preaches against the oppression under which he suffers should not excite any one, because to be the leader or follower of any great movement for the liberation of op- pressed people is to be called radical. But judging from history, the Negro needs radical leadership. Jesus Christ, the true example of our religion, was one of the most noted Extra Size AllWool Plaid and Striped Skirts stitched pleats.

His teachings and doctrines were so radical that the people finally crucified Him. Who today would deny the wisdom of Christ’s: actions? Christopher Colum- bus was a radical of the first water; the people not only called him radi- feal, but judged him insane, which ts ja form of radicalism, Robert Fulton, ike Jesus and Columbus, was called ‘radical because of his views. Yes, ‘the Negro in America today owes jhis freedom to staunch radicals. like Elliah P. Lovejoy, Wendell Philips, Horace Greeley, William Lloyd Gar- Yison and John Brown, All of this ‘group becaust of their radicalism, suffered persecution and some even death. Who today would challenge ‘their wisdom? DuBois first came into ‘prominence because of his radical pro. ‘clivities, although he has later ‘changed; Ghandi, the Nationalist lead- er of India is imprisoned today be- cause of his radical views. Therefore, some of the greatest men in the his- tory of the world, were radicals of ‘high order. It is because of the non-radical ten- ‘deney of the present day Negro lead- ers that they have failed to attract large following or accomplish any- thing, That the masses of Negroes are today crying for a radical leader is attested to by the large following Mareus Garvey accumulated in a few years, and as Garvey becomes conser- vative, so will a large part of his fol- lowing desert him. While the Negro has had several radical leaders, they have failed to last fo rany length of time; either the leader has abandoned his program or died before the movement was fully organized. Our so-called radical move- ments of the past seemed to have failed to “carry on.” When one leader falls out, there has been no new one to take the mantle and hold the organ- ization intact and continue the work. If the Negro in America is to ever shake off his economic burden and take his place in the sun as a man, he will be led through the wilderness by a radical leader. No leader can be conservative and lead very long. This has been conclusively proven with our present day leaders. : Just in-so-far as the Negroes of the world become radical so will they ob- tain their economic freedom, the lack of the mat thing that is’ hold. ing the race down. Conservative leadership is well and good for those in power, but for the oppressed, never. The quicker we ‘as a race subscribe to a so-called radi- cal policy, the quicker will we start on our road to freedom. ‘The Negro needs and must have radical leadership Actors of the Past | James Reese Europe the noted mu- sician and composer was born in Mo- bile, Ala., about forty-four years ago, but his parents came to this city when James was very young so practically all of his boyhood days were spent in Washington. | ‘The first instrument he learned to ‘play was the violin, receiving instruc tions from his father who was also a good musician, later playing the piano was added. Shortly after leaving school James went to New York where he encount- fered many difficulties but finally ‘caught on to the ways of the city and ‘he landed a job playing the violin in ‘an all night amusement resort. But his first real success came when he organized the now famous Clef Club being also its first president. After several years with this organi- ‘zation he withdrew and organized the Tempo Club which gained fame by furnishing dance musie for Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Castle the great society dancers. Now comes the World War in Europe. He enlisted in the 15th Infantry, N. ¥. N. G.,which later be- came the famous “Hell Fighters,” was’ made band master with a first lieutenant rank, went overseas where they put jazz on the map having the honor of being the first band to receive orders to play for the General Allied Staff . It was primarily through these mu- sicians that made the Old World jazz crazy giving much employment to our musicians and sitgers. ‘At the close of the war returning home with his outfit he organized a ‘band of picked musicians, known as ‘the “Hell Fighters Band” gave a ‘number of concerts in New York then ‘went on a tour in the northern and ‘middle Western cities having great success. Returning east to play an engage- ment in Boston and it was during this engagement one of his drummers be- came angered at areal or fancied ‘grievance and stabbed Europe fatally, bringing to an untimely end one of our ‘most popular musicians.

A GET SOMETHING LEADERSHIP While W. E. B. Dubois is writing his bitter diatribes against a people who never read them; while James Weldon Johnson, supported by the loose resolution-making organization the N. A. A. C. P., is struggling to legalize judicial lynching; while Marcus Garvey is collecting fares for a passage on his mythical ship; while R. R. Moton is serenely repeating the platitudes of Booker T. Washington; while our ministers are erecting huge golden calves unto God, the plain ordinary Negroes should select from their rank and file a “get-something” leader. In what way will the Negro be benefited if he reads all the denouncing themes written by Dubois? How will it profit a Negro to escape the mob and be lynched by 12 men and a judge protected by a Dyer Bill? Will he profit by a few ships touching the coast of Africa—entirely under the dominion of hostile nations? Can his soul be free by the influence of architecture? Are we ignorant of the fact that a capitalistic nation recognizes none but property rights? Have we soon forgotten that poisoned gas was fought with poisoned gas in the last war? In this period of reconstruction we should lay aside shadowy substances and pursue that which American civilization has been dedicated to MONEY. To get money we need a “get-something leadership.” A leadership that will controve to devise means of getting something in the purse; a leadership that will controve to organize financially and industrially; a leadership that contrives to match a dollar with a dollar. Why bicker over the glaring inequalities existing between a strong and a weak race when those same inequalities have stood during the life of the whole human family. When Perry touched the shores of Japan the little brown man soon became aware of what was needed to compete with such rivals as live in the western world. They began to get something and President Harding was pleased to strike the name of Jesus Christ from the conference prayer to satisfy their pagan whim.

Staunton (Va.) Reporter Plain Talks On Money Column of Finance for Everybody edited by EUGENE L. C. DAVIDSON "Don't talk to me of investments," she said. "I lost about $500.00 in an investment last year and I'll never make another one." "What kind of investment did you make that is making you skeptical of every other investment in the world?" "Well, you see," she answered demurely. "I was told that if I put $500, into an automobile I couldn't lose for I could always sell for more than I paid for it, and now I find that I can't get anywhere near the amount that I paid for it." Now, Mr. Bones, answer this question: When is an investment not an investment? And Mr. Bones on the extreme right scratches his head and his answer would be funny if the truth were not so tragic: "When it is a lie." Please, please, ladies and gentlemen, for your own sake as well as in justice to the profession, when you speak of investments, know whereof you speak. If you are going to invest, invest. If you are going to speculate, speculate. But do not speculate and call that speculation an investment and when you lose—as you sometimes will—say, "I have invested and lost and I have invested for my last time." Although the line of demarcation between an investment and a speculation is not always well defined, there are certain earmarks which will lead in the right direction. When you invest, you are looking primarily for safety of principal. The amount of profit you make is a minor point compared with the safety of your money. As a general rule the higher the interest or rate of dividend on your money, the less safe is your principal. Look then for safety of principal, if you would invest.

Commercial Co. Phone North 3295 real estate, look to the real value of the house. Is the market high or low? Can you get your money back if you are forced to sell? What about intrinsic value of the security. What is the earning power of the company? Do any securities of the company rank higher than the one you intend to buy? For example, if you have your choice between a First Preferred Stock, a Second Preferred Stock and the Common Stock, from the standpoint of the investor the First Preferred Stock ranks the highest, and if the common stock has paid 8 per cent for a number of years and the second preferred has paid 7 per cent for a number of years and the earning power of the company for a number of years has been sufficient to pay all dividends with a fair margin, and other things being equal, the First Preferred Stock may be put in the class of an investment especially if there are no Bonds outstanding, which Bonds would rank above the preferred stock. A Bond, other things being equal, is superior to stock as an investment, for, as we have explained in previous articles, a Bond is a promise to pay and is backed up by tangible assets whereas a stock promises nothing but a portion of what is earned. In the next place look out for continuity of income. The real purpose of investing is to make your money make money. Is the company able to continue interest or dividend payments? What has been its past history? These are important questions for, after all, no matter how great the value of its tangible assets, the real test of safety lies in its ability to earn and continue to earn. Safety of principal and continuity of income, then should guide you in making your choice of an investment. When you buy expecting to make your money by a rise in the market whether you buy stocks, bonds, houses or automobile, you are speculating. When you buy stock in new enterprises, you are almost always speculating. We are not opposed to speculation. We rather favor it—if you know what you are doing. Big fortunes are made through speculation, not through conservative investments. Rockefeller, Ford and other millionaires speculated in order to make their millions. United States Steel was once a speculation. Telephone Stock once went begging at fifty cents a share because people thought the speculation was too great. Speculate wisely by all means if you can afford to and never speculate with all of your money. Invest at least half of your surplus in good, solid, dividend-paying stocks or well seasoned and proved bonds. Safe investment and wise speculation call for expert advice. Go to your banker whom you can always trust in advice on investments, or go to a broker who is an expert in his profession and whom you can trust. But whatever you do, invest when you invest and speculate when you speculate and do not get the two processes mixed—which is what we have been trying to say all along! THOMAS L.

Unless personal notice is received to the contrary another meeting will be held Sunday, June 18 at the same place, the Scottish Rite Temple on 11th St., N. W., and at the hour of four o'clock.

THEATRES AMUSEMENTS SPORTS "Just Around The Corner" At the Dunbar Monday to Thursday of Next Week What takes place just around the Corner from you? Do you realize who it is that is just around the corner in every city of these United States? What takes place there? "Just Around the Corner" is a picture classic, depicting the sunken lives of thousands of women who toil for home and children and nothing else—the mothers who bring a vast army of human beings into the world each day, to see them grow to youth, to suffer or, rebelling, revolting from the squalor of tenement homes, to seek another life Just Around the Corner. This picture of a sikened mother, striving to hold together her little fatherless flock—the restless daughter demanding her birthright to happiness—and the drama which develops around this situation—provides a powerful, tense, impassioned tribute to the mothers of the poor. Realistic—Human—Pathetic—A laurel on the Monument to the Mothers whose sacrifices have never been recorded.

Best Title for Poem The title "God is Watching Thee" was sent in by sixty-three Tribunites. The following two titles being second and third; "Courage," twenty-nine; "Forward," ten. The poem follows: God is Watching Thee What if the world does seem to frown At every thing you do? Why should its frowning matter If you work sincere and true? Why cease to work, and lay aside Your beloved chosen tools? Why let a life go idly by Because of frowns of fools? God gave to you a certain task— A certain deed to do; He gave you strength and intellect To carry the job through.

GERTRUDES ADVENTURES "Here comes Uncle Henry," Gertrude said as she turned from the window to open the door. "Hello, everybody!" greeted Uncle Henry as he entered and gathered Gertrude in his arms. "It looks as though it will storm ere the day is done." "And make yourself 'to home,'" interrupted Gertrude. "Well, little live wire, what have you been doing since I've been away? Tell me of some of your original stunts. I've often laughed when I thought of the flour you put in my shoe and which shot up in a white cloud when I forced my foot into it," and as Uncle Henry told this he laughed heartily. "I've been real-honest-to beans good since you've been away. I've turned over a new leaf. How did you find things in the South on this trip?" "Well I saw something that will interest you. In a small town in Florida they have a colored constable. I saw him arrest a white boy who had stolen some chickens—" "White—boy—steal—chickens?" queried Gertrude. "Sure. Why not? A thief is a thief. There are black thieves and there are white thieves. White people like chickens as well as do colored people. White people are fond of water melons. In the Northern cities it is as typical to see gangs of white youths shooting craps as it is to see colored youths in our smaller southern cities." "Ki-yil" yelled Gertie. "It is nothing strange to see white people doing, to a great extent, the very things they attribute as being typical traits of Negroes. Negroes do all the things white people do. Humans practice all the things, the same things, which it is human nature to do." "Have you ever seen a body of Negroes lynch a white man?" seriously queried Gertrude. "No, Gertie, I have never. God forbid that I shall. It is an evil, though, which the Negro will very soon indulge in," answered Uncle Henry gravely. "Oh, Unky. It's not right. People should not lynch. Why do they?" "Prejudice, my little dear; prejudice—prejudice by the common white, and prejudice by the better class. We can look at it in no other way. "If a mob can gather, break into a city or state prison, take out an inmate, kill him: if those people, white or colored, sit by and make no attempt to crush the evil of lynching then all are guilty. The judge, the juries, the police, the business men, the preach- . ers, the school teachers, the whole community white and black are guilty." "Gosh, Unky, you're tough on 'em." "But I feel that I am right, my dear. A community does what it wants to do. If night riders were to invade a city and plunder and steal, let us see how long it would last. It would be crushed at once. Law—honest law—always prevails. "If police were to assault lynchers with as much gusto as they so willingly display on assaulting those Negroes who are protecting their homes against mobs they would crush lynching. "Lynching will be crushed, and my dear, it will be crushed by those very people who do not take part in lynching." "How, Unky," asked Gertrude. "When it rains it rains on all. It drenches the strong, the weak; the rich, the poor; the white, the black. "But this all goes to hasten the time when some great calamity will arouse America. "If lynching is a privileged unwritten law for the white man it is all right for the black man, too. "Recently I was in a Virginia town and a white man insulted a colored woman. The woman resented it and her husband thrashed the insulter. The white man went away and he stated he'd come back and wipe out the neighborhood. He came back, but he and his associates saw so many serious looking determined colored men standing around with their hands thrust in their pockets that they changed their minds about indulging in whatever mischief they had planned. "Some day, somewhere, a white mob will go on a rampage. Unexpectedly the Negroes will strike—with fury—by fire and what not; and those white people who do not personally participate in lynching will suffer with those who do. Negroes will remember Brownsville, Chicago, Washington, Chester, East St. Louis, Houston, Philadelphia, Tulsa. There are 'new' Negroes now." "Gee, I wish I was a man," said Gertrude. "I'd—" "What are those? Some new records?" broke in Uncle Henry. "Yes, sir. Would you like to hear them?" "Indeed so. Play me one of Bert Williams', I never tire of listening to him." Thus the evening was spent. Later that night, Uncle Henry and Gertrude took in a movie in which Noble Johnson was featured. After they returned home it began to rain. The wind blew, lashing the trees, the young trees, and bushes to and fro. The house shook; the lightning and thunder raged. Gertrude went to her room but did not go directly to bed. She turned on the light, undressed and fixed her hair. She crooned, softly, slowly, feelingly the popular song "Dear Old Southland." She turned out the light and went to the window which was over the front porch. Her attention was at once centered on a car in front of her home, near the curb. She saw the form of her uncle dashing out of the house to the gate, out the gate, and into the car. "Why is Unky going out on such a night as this?" she asked herself, "Gee I wish I was a man. I'd—" With this she turned from the window, knelt and said her prayers and crept slowly to bed. CONCERNING AMERICA Why do American born citizens travel to Europe to see wonders? Is there any greater natural wonder in the world than Niagara Falls in our own country; or the grand canyons of Colorado? Surely nothing in Europe surpasses the famous Luray Caves of Virginia or the Geysers of Yellowstone National Park, in Arizona. Again the answer will come: "We go to Europe to see and learn of primitive life, such as ancient Greece." Let me ask is there any better example of primitive life than the relics of the American Indians? We may see these in the western part of the United States. The great Mongolian Desert certainly doesn't surpass our great Arizona Desert nor our Death Valley in California. Is there anything in Europe or Asia that is greater than the Crater Lakes or the coal mines of the United States? In my estimation, the Washington Monument, the Capitol of the United States, the Radio Station at Arlington, the oil wells in Oklahoma and various other wonders in America are greater than any in Europe. Is there any more efficient examples of architecture than the Nation's Capitol? Is there any better example of hard labor and perseverance than the Washington Monument? Is there any man in Europe we consider greater than Edison? THE "DEMOCRACY OF CHILDHOOD" (From F. H. M. Murray's "Emancipation and the Freed in American Sculpture.") A Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial at Waterbury, Connecticut, has a most notable and inspiring group which comes within scope of our subject. This group and the monument of which it is a part; are the sculptural work of George E. Bissell, [white] whose Lincoln Memorial in Edinburgh has already been discussed [in this volume]. While this Waterbury group seemingly was not intended primarily as an "Emancipation" group, yet to commemorate that event, or at least its consummation, was one of the purposes of the sculptor. The Waterbury Memorial, as a whole, is so exceptionally tasteful, yet so expressive; so un-ostentious, yet so appealing; that I wish the occasion would permit an attempt at an analysis and interpretation of it in all of its parts. It was dedicated in 1884, nearly ten years earlier than the Edinburg work. It is a matter of no small moment that so small a city as Waterbury should undertake and construct such an imposing and costly memorial to the nine hundred men which the city sent to the war [Civil]. It shows a practical patriotism and art sense that is truly remarkable. Concerning the particular group which interests us now, it may be said that nothing needs to be added to the description and but little, if anything, to the interpretation which was given of it at the dedication by the Reverend Joseph Anderson, D. D. He said of it: "The central figure in the group is seated in a chair of state, the panelled back of which is occupied by a wreath of oak leaves and laurel; and within this, in a medallion, is an eagle, from whose beak depends a tablet bearing the word 'Emancipation,' the key, of course, to the meaning of the group. "The seated figure, whose face is full of motherly tenderness, leans forward in an attitude of listening. Her clasped hands rest on a large book which stands on her knee; her right foot is upon a cannon, beside which is a broken shackle. The fillet which binds her hair is ornamented with a miniature shield, graven with stars and stripes, which marks her out as representing the American government. A well-dressed school-boy—his bundle of books beside him—stands at her knee; and while she leans forward to listen to him she looks benignantly upon a ragged little Negro sitting on a cotton-bale at her feet, who holds in one hand a hoe, and is trying with the other to force open the leaves of the book upon her knee. In the school-boy, making an earnest appeal in behalf of the young Negro, the North is represented (by one of its children—for children have no prejudices, and know no color-line) as appealing to the Government to extend to the African race the educational and other advantages which white people, North and South, had long enjoyed. And the Negro, who represents an emancipated people, illustrates by his position and action the eager desire of his race to secure the education which they know to be necessary to success in a free republic." If indeed this Negro boy represents his race mentally—as he plainly does physically—it would be difficult to express, concerning the race, anything more complimentary and reassuring. The black boy, though the hoe is still in his hands, attempts with the other hand to "force open the leaves of the book," in order that he can secure the treasures therein. I know of nothing in American art that is more frankly and generously complimentary to Black Folk. Only a deep discernment, and a generous and noble heart would have conceived and proposed such a thing, even in Connecticut—the home state of Prudence Crandall, but alas, the state which in Miss Crandall's day had not reached her stature. (Read note at end of this article.) Only a generous and noble community, and above all an intelligent community, would have sanctioned such a representation. Another idea that is set forth by this group is beautiful and true—the freedom from prejudice, the fundamental democracy of childhood. The Reverend Doctor Anderson brought it out in his description, but I think it may profitably be pressed a little further. As I have stated, the idea is not only beautiful but true; and we should never look at this group or a picture of it, nor even think of it, without remembering this, among the important lessons which it teaches. Those of us who were reared in an environment where the children of our own race were relatively few, will perhaps bear strongest witness to its truth. From experience, we also know the truth of that which the sculptor himself has explicitly affirmed, that "race prejudice is the result of training, to which only grown-ups are subjects." [From a letter from the sculptor to the author of the books.] Hence, besides having other excellences this group is an everlasting reminder of the falsity of the recently enunciated claim—seemingly the "last ditch" of those who are fighting against the teaching and the spirit of the times—the claim that there is a natural and instinctive aversion of one race race for another. Hereafter, when a person seriously asserts this doctrine; or when he seeks to buttress his cultivated prejudice and calculated meanness by this claim, we need not argue with him, we may merely refer him to this group—or show him a picture of it—this eloquent testimony in bronze, this noble group of Bissell's, to which I have given the name, "The Democracy of Childhood." So far as I know, Mr. Bissell has given no name to this group nor sanctioned one for it; nor has he designated what he regards as the main idea in it. It might be called "Negro Aspiration," or "The Glory of Emancipation," or perhaps some other more expressive name. I would like to call it by the latter of the two names just mentioned, although the phrase may sound grandiloquent; for surely, the greatest good, and therefore the greatest glory, of Emancipation was the fact that it made possible, and to some degree attainable, for the Negro child what had been impossible and forbidden before. (The relatively few colored children in the free states who had more or less access to schools, are excepted.—Author.) I refer to education. It was the possibility of obtaining that, that was Emancipation's greatest boon. But perhaps the name which I presumed to give the group is more in keeping with what appears to be its dominant idea. Except for the purpose of identification, there is no serious need of a name. Call the group what you choose, or give it no name at all; it matters not. The really important thing is to appreciate the significance of what Mr. Bissell has here represented and to realize that here we have another instance of what Jarves refers to as, "High Art teaching noble truth." [A fine half-tone picture of this group and also a picture of the whole monument of which it is a part, are in Mr. Murray's book from which the article above is quoted. We shall reproduce the pictures and perhaps some others from the book, next week or shortly. Preserve the above article to compare with the picture when it appears.—Ed.] Note: The "Prudence Crandell Incident" is sketched in John W. Cromwell's book, "The Negro in American History" (page 254) as follows: "Prudence Crandall [white] in 1833 admitted a colored girl as a student to her Girls' Boarding School at Canterbury, Conn. Notwithstanding opposition by whites to her retention, Miss Crandall refused to exclude her, and on the withdrawal of white patronage she defiantly opened a school for colored girls. This intensified opposition and caused the enactment of a law making such a school illegal under penalty of fine and imprisonment. Miss Crandall was arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced. She refused to pay her fine or permit friends to do so. She was thrust into jail, but was subsequently released." Fifteenth Amendment The Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America was ratified March 30, 1870. Sec. 1. The right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States, or by any State, on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. LETTER FROM OUR LITTLE FRIENDS Dear Editor: I have read your Page for sometime and this week I am writing. I am eleven years old and I live at 1818, 13th Street, N. W. I am in the 7-B Grade. I am sending an answer to one of the puzzles. ETHEL NIXON. · (Dear Ethel: Your answer to the Star Word puzzle was correct. I hope you will try to solve all of the puzzles and that you will become interested in the history questions. What school do you attend?—Ed.) Dear Editor: Now that vacation time is almost here I hope to take more interest in the Page. Expect to hear from me often. I've written to you before. My letter was not published. VIOLA JONES (Age 11) (If at first you don't succeed you try, try again. Good for you—Ed.) Dear Mr. Frazier: I thank you so much for publishing my poem. This week I am sending some drawings and I hope Mrs. Wastebasket will be out when it arrives. VIVIAN V. BRIGHT (Age 14) (Dear Vivian, your drawing is good, very good. I am sorry you did not draw with ink. Please send one drawn on pure white paper and drawn with ink so it can be published. We have a number of drawings come which we cannot publish because of the use of pencils.—Ed.) Dear Editor: I am still sending in answers to the Page although I have not come out victorious for quite a while. I want to show the other Tribunites that I believe in the motto: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again." *RUFUS P. TURNER (Age 14) (Turner, you have the right spirit. So many give up because they fail. To never fail is to never succeed. Then, too, failures make our successes more enjoyable. Keep on. The race isn't all ways to the swift, but he who trots along at a persistent and consistent pace is bound to come in among the winners. Don't get weary. —Ed.) Dear Editor: Here is a short story called "The Hare and the Elephant." Once upon a time there was a hare and this hare did not go out doors because he was afraid of the other animals. He was afraid they would catch him. One day he got so hungry that he said, "I will have to go out and get some food." So he went out and the first thing he saw was an elephant. The hare ran as fast as he could and when he got home the elephant was right behind him. The elephant said, "Would you like to go to my house for dinner?" The hare said, "Yes." The hare was never seen after that. LORELLE MURRAY (Age 6) (Dear Lorelle, did the elephant eat the hare? We doubt it. Perhaps the elephant sat on the hare. Let us know at an early date just what happened.—Ed.) NEGRO During the past week a friend of mine asked me why I had this Page so full of the word "Negro." It is the "idea" behind this Page perhaps. It is the "idea" behind this Page to enhance the value of the word "Negro," all that the word stands for and all that it may imply. "George Jones, colored, was arrested for stealing." "A man was arrested for being drunk." This is what the average white press gives you. Emphasis is laid on the bad that the colored man does. The individual white man is protected by keeping his name unknown to the general public. Until very recently (and the incidents are very few and far between right now) how often could you refer to the white press as a whole for noteworthy events pertaining to our race? Now if the white press, the only organized means we have of being presented to the foreign world sees fit to suppress our accomplishments, our aspirations, why should we be so stingy as to try to refrain from yelling from the house tops that such and such noteworthy event was caused or done by Negroes? If cadets in Boboton or Washington were first organized by Negroes, say so. If organizations do noteworthy things, if they are Negro organizations, say so. No race can afford to be ashamed of itself. When a Negro is ashamed of his race he is a traitor. He is a heathen. A heathen knows not God. To know God is to be proud of what He makes you, white, red, or black; Negro, Turk or Chinese; handsome, cripple, or blind. The good that we do we should laud.

Subscription Rates: One Year $2.50; Six Months $1.25 IDLE HANDS Last week Howard University turned out 245 graduates. Next week Miner Normal, Dunbar High, Armstrong Manual Training and Shaw Junior High will turn out 347 more making a total of 592 graduates from these five schools. What will we do with them? What will they do with themselves? What will their parents do with them? These are momentous questions and should be given much consideration. Many of the high school graduates intend to go to college; but a young man or young woman will find out there is little use in going to college unless he or she has a clear object in view in going there and a definite expectation from the course they intend to pursue. That requires experience which few of our young people have the opportunity of obtaining. Just last week we met a college graduate of the class of 1921, yet in the city without having done anything since he came out last June. Idle Hands! "For Satan finds some mischief still for idle hands to do." Isaac Watts write that more than two hundred years ago, at which time he knew nothing of jazz and joy, road-houses and flappers, cigarette smoking and hooch drinking and the rest of the mischief of the twentieth century. To high school graduates and college graduates, who expect to enter life's activities, what have we to offer? There is not a city in this country in which there are not enough idle educated people now. There is not a city in this country in which there is not enough of idle money belonging to our group, that if put into industrial and commercial enterprises would open doors and opportunity to the sons and daughters of the very parents holding the money. Then the question arises: Who is responsible for the idle hands among us? Is it the young people just out of school? Is it the parents who hoard their money? Is it society in general? What can YOU do about it? What WILL YOU DO about it? This is a crucial period in the race's history and we need the trained minds to help ferret out and execute a program for the progress and success of the race. MISS SLOWE TO BE DEAN OF WOMEN MISS SLOWE TO BE DEAN OF WOMEN Columbia Extension Centre at the Junior High school and more than 300 teachers of the Washington public schools have studied in this centre in the two years of its existence. Miss Slowe was elected President of the Columbian Educational Associations last fall, and there are more than 500 teacher members of this association. For recreation Miss Slowe wields the tennis racket. She has held the National Championship in women's singles for three years, 1916 and 1917 and again in 1921, which she now holds. The past fourteen years have been ripe in experience and full of service for Miss Slowe. The loss the public schools will sustain in Miss Slowe's resignation is expressed in these words from the assistant superintendent, Garnet C. Wilkinson, "The public schools suffer a great loss in Miss Slowe's resignation. However, we are happy because she is well placed." On June 5th, the teachers of the Columbia Extension Centre presented Miss Slowe with a gold locket and chain as a testimonial of their appreciation of the service she had rendered them by securing the Columbia Extension Centre. Possible successors for the principalship of the Junior High are being suggested. Among those being mentioned are Miss M. Kirkland, assistant principal of Dunbar High; G. Smith Wormley, Miner Normal; M. Grant Lucas, dark horse and Miss Zita Dyson. ARMSTRONG WINS COMPETITIVE DRILL (Continued from page 1) This was the greatest attraction of the city schools during the year and the colors of the three schools were much in evidence. More than 25,000 students and proud parents filed thru the gates during the day. The drill 88 (Continued from page 1) One great defect of the race is the following of the line of least resistance. The graduates are likely to fall into that rut. We are constantly expecting someone to play Santa Claus to us. We do not seem to have the courage and stamina for bucking the line or entering new avenues of industry or commercialism. The race is looking for the leader who can lead into economic paths that will produce results. There may be a graduate just out of school this year who may be destined for that leadership. However, there are too many idle hands among us already, and more will be added with this year's crop of high school and college graduates. There is not a city in the land in which we could not own and operate industrial and commercial enterprises with success. But the fact remains that there is not a single city in this country where we have availed ourselves of the opportunity and operate enough establishments to care for our own graduates of that city. How many college men are compelled to be working on Pullman cars, in dining cars, as train porters, in barber shops, at table waiting and the like today? On the other hand, how many of our young college women are employed in befitting positions in keeping with their training and ability? Consider the number of young men we find loitering around pool rooms and dives who have been thru high school and college. What are we going to do about it? Will we continue to whine and play the baby act? There are 25 drug stores owned by our race in this city, yet not an ice cream factory to supply them with one of their primary needs. More than a hundred thousand people in our group; but not one steam laundry. More than 200,000 feet for shoes and no one selling them. More than $300,000 spent a week here for groceries and but very few in that business. More than 25,000 homes to be furnished and supplied without a single furniture store. There are no wholesale houses, no factories, no retail stores and no banks in keeping with our numbers. Who is responsible for the Idle Hands? began at 10:30 a.m., and lasted until 6:00 p.m. Among the visitors seen were Commissioner Oyster, Superintendent of Schools and Mrs. Frank W. Ballou; Mrs. Howard L. Hodgkins, acting president of the board of education; and assistant superintendent and Mrs. Garnet C. Wilkinson.

BIG DONATION GIVEN JOURNAL OF HISTORY (Continued from page 1) on Scholarships and Fellowships. Any one knowing of young college graduates with an honorable record in this field will render the Association a service by giving it information as to their qualifications to function in this capacity. The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History was organized in Chicago September 9, 1915, and was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia October 3, 1915. Headquarters were then opened in Washington and on January 1, 1916, the Director published the first number of the Journal of Negro History. The purposes of this society are to collect sociological and historical documents, to publish books on Negro Life and history, to promote the scientific study of the Negro through clubs and schools, and to bring about harmony between the races by interpreting the one to the other. The Journal of Negro History and other publications of the Association are therefore read by all classes of both races in the North and South and abroad. The Association is endorsed by such distinguished men as Harold H. Swift Morton D. H. Hull, Bishop W. D. Johnson, Bishop Elias Cottrell, Bishop G C. Clement, Frank O. Lowden, William J. Schieffelin, and Julius Rosenwald It has the cooperation of such scholars as Roland G. Usher, John M. Mecklin, Jerome Dowd, Kelly Miller, C. H Wesley, William Renwick Riddell Charles E. Chapman, J. Franklin Jameson, Henry Churchill King, Walter Weyl, Frederick L. Hoffman, A H. Stone, R. E. Park, William E. Dodd Carl Russell Fish, Edward Channing and Oswald Garrison Villard. During its seven years of struggle it has succeeded in spite of handicaps in directing world-wide attention to the neglected articles and documents giving facts which are generally unknown. In organizing and stimulating local clubs and classes the Association has done much to change the attitude of communities toward the Negro. JUDGE TERRELL IS MUCH IMPROVED Judge Robert H. Terrell of the Municipal Court who was reported very ill last week is much improved this week and is believed by his friends and Doctor to be out of danger. Mrs. Terrell who was out of the city at the time the Judge was stricken, returned to the city last week and has been at the bedside of her husband ever since. President Harding sent Judge Terrell's name to the Senate this week for renomination to the bench, but as yet the Senate committee has not reported the name out. It is fully expected however, that his nomination will be readily confirmed. SPINGARN MEDAL GOES TO MRS. TALBERT Mary B. Talbert, former president of the National Association of Colored Women, has been chosen to receive the Spingarn Medal on Tuesday, June 20, at the Newark Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, it has been announced. The committee on the award issued the following statement: "The award was made to Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, and this award was given in consideration of her services in organizing the women of the country so that the debt was paid off the home of Frederick Douglass, the home restored and made a shrine in memory of the great Douglass; also because of the fact that she represented the colored women of America at the International Council of Women held in Norway. "The award was made specifically for the above reasons, however, the Committee could not fail to take into consideration also the fact that Mrs. Talbert was twice President of the National Association of Colored Wom- en and that all her life she has been identified with uplift work, religious and civic, and has been a leader of the women of her race." The Committee making the award consisted of Bishop Hurst, Dr. Dillard and Mr. Hope. Rabbi Solomon Foster of Newark has been invited and has accepted the invitation to present the medal to Mrs. Talbert at the Newark Conference. STORE AND OFFICE BUILDING TO BE BUILT ON I STREET "All papers have been signed, plans drawn and the contract let to the Graves and Coleman Construction Company of Virginia, for the erection of a two story store and office building at the Northeast corner of 11th and U Streets, N. W., by the Mutual Improvement Association," said John W. Lewis, president of the Association, to a Tribune reporter Thursday. The drug store now occupied by Wm. H. Davis and other buildings on the lots will be razed and actual work started within the next thirty days. The new building will have a front on U Street of 63 feet and 36 feet on 11th Street. There will be four stores on the first floor and 18 rooms on the second floor. The building will cost about $30,000 and will be ready for occupancy by October. COL. BROOKS TESTIMONIAL GREAT AFFAIR One of the most enjoyable affairs of the season was given Saturday night, when about one hundred former high school cadets and National Guardsmen assembled in the Whitelaw Hotel where a testimonial-banquet-smoker was given in honor of Lt. Col. Arthur Brooks. Following the opening remarks by Lt. Benj. Washington, who acted as Master of Ceremonies, Capt. Albert Ridgeley, M. D., spoke on "The High School Cadet." He said that he could speak in the highest terms of Col. Brooks, after 22 years of unbroken love for him. Maj. M. T. Dean, Instructor in Military Tactics for the city schools and Howard University, said: "It is true that too much cannot be said of the value of the service which Col. Arthur Brooks has rendered the young men of our country. Everything that has come to me as a military man, I owe to Lt. Col. Arthur Brooks." (Continued next week) BUSINESS HOUSES CONSOLIDATE One of the most important business consolidations in the history of Negro business in Washington took place this week, when the Capitol Haberdashery on U Street merged with the Imperial Clothing Store on U St. The merging of these two clothing stores will give Washington one big men's store. Mr. Howard, former owner of the Capitol will have charge of the men's clothing department, while Mr. Harris of the Imperial will have charge of the haberdashery department. These two men with their experience in their lings will endeavor to give the men of Washington a first class store in every respect. EXHIBIT OF DUNBAR BUSINESS DEPARTMENT A special feature of class night exercises of the graduating class of Dumbar High School that were held Friday night, June 16, was an exhibit of student work of the Department of Business Practice. It was just thirty-six years ago, or in September 1886, that business subjects were first included in the course of study of the Colored school system in the District of Columbia, and it was in the following year that the business department was organized as a part of the high school at Miner building under Prof. Francis L. Cardozo. In 1891, this department was moved to M Street High School, and in 1896 it was moved to Garnet building. Two years later it was moved to Douglass building where it was made a part of Armstrong Manual Training School in 1900, and in the year 1902 it was moved into the new Armstrong School. Again in 1909 this department was moved to the old Mott School, and in September 1911 it was moved to the Phelps building. In 1912 its designation was changed to the "Department of Business Practice" of the M Street High School, and on October 2, 1916 after thirty years of continued growth it was moved to the Dunbar High School where it has remained for six years. During this era of expansion new paths were opened, the needs of colored business men were carefully investigated, and nothing has been neglected that will add to the effi- icency of the students who are to take their place among the business men of our racial group who even now find it almost impossible to find in sufficient numbers young men and women who are prepared to assist them in an intelligent effort to successfully meet the fierce competition peculiar to the wellorganized business methods of today. The present success of the Department of Business Practice is due in a very large measure to the vision and untiring efforts of Miss Mary E. Nalle, the late L. Gorham Fletcher, and to D. B. Thompson, J. C. Wright, F. J. Douglass and S. E. Compton of the present faculty who have rendered efficient service during many years. Beginning with the first class which graduated in 1889 this branch of the system has annually graduated students who are now doing commendable service as bank organizers, clerks, dentists, physicians, stenographers, typists, real estate dealers, insurance agents (teachers, lawyers, etc. here in the District of Columbia and also in other parts of the country. Among the graduates of the Department of Business Practice are such successful and well-known persons as Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, President of the National Training School for Girls; Lieut. Col. Benjamin O. Davis, U. S. A.; John Quander formerly of the U. S. Commissary Department, Manila, P. I., and now a successful bank organizer in the state of Virginia; Elridge T. Hawkins who served as Secretary to the U. S. Minister to Liberia, Africa, and was subsequently made an officer in the Liberian Constabulary; and Edmund A. Burrill who spent several years in the Diplomatic Service of our government. In fact it is not difficult to find a large number of our women and men who are successful in business pursuits and in public and private life whose success can be attributed in no small measure to the training they received in the Department of Business Practice at Dumbar High School.
