The Following Is
THE CALL FOR AN EDUCATIONAL
ONyENTION
To be Held at Lynchburg, Va, July
so 4 81, 1890, at the Court
st. Baptist Church.

The purpose of the meeting is TO
organize n State Educational Con-
vention or Association.
The great need of educational ia
cilities in this state for the colored
people; the relation that u good
practical education sustains to our
welfare, as citizens, men OF affairs
and Christians; the deaden senti-
ment and latent powers which seem
yet to. obtain among the masses OF
our people; to inaugurate 81 move
ment that will awaken and arouse
these sentiments and powers to act
i've and practical use; how to use
them and concentrate our efforts to
the best possible advantage; to have
every man and woman feel the sol
emn and weighty responsibility that
rests upon each and all; to foster
the school we have already started
the Virginia Seminary, to foster
ministerial educat ton already begun,
are the only apologies offered for in
viting and urging upon you the inn
portance. and indeed the necessity
of attending such meeting.
Knowing the interest you take in
the cause of Christian education and
your efforts to advance and elevate
our people in general. we do not feel
that it is too much for us to say
that your presence is confidently ex-
pected.
1t is proposed to consider the sub
ject of education in all it's phases
and especially in it's relation TO our
people, from the standpoint of their
environments-Our surroundings
constitute the most eloquent appeal
that can be made; and we are salts
fed that none to whom this call
may come. seeing the condition of
our people as it is, will refuse to con-
tribute whatever they may be able
for it's betterment.

The Planet Finds a Missing Son.

Quite a singular occurrence took
place relative to the death OF Sarah,
the daughter of Rev. VIM. Troy.
The family did not know where to
write, to Joshua, to inform him of his
sisters DEATH All were ignorant as
to his whereabouts.
Last Monday, Rev. Troy said he
had just received a letter from the
missing Joshua, who stated that he
had just read in the PLANET the ac-
count of his sisters funeral and had
hastened to write for particulars.
He was in Meridian, Mississippi,
and while there read a copy of the
PLANET, learning for the first time
of his loss.
