duced Professor Frissell, who called upon
four of the Hampton students. George
Frazier, of the Santa Sioux tribe, whose
grandfather had been a participant in
the great massacre; Charles Everett,
negro; Philip Longtail, OF the Winnie
bago tribe, and Robert L. White, negro.
These four spoke of the benefits they
had derived from their school.
Professor Frissell made few remarks.
He said that In one of the halls at Hamp-
ton there hung a map OF the United
States upon which were indicated by
stars the- localities where Hampton
graduates had settled, and transmitted
to their own people the benefits OF
knowledge and industrial training that
they had themselves received. The
number of these stars are growing every
year, the speaker said. and each one
represents centre of real civilization, a
place where knowledge has supplanted
Ignorance; thrift has taken the place OF
laziness, and true Christianity has
driven out fauaticism.
In referring TO the financial needs OF
the school, Professor Frissell said 1t cost

1t was a neat way of asking help from
sympathetic audience for worthy cause.
and when, later. DIR. Vose called for the
contribution, there was very material
expression OF good will.
Julius ID. Dreher, pres ident of Roanoke
college, also spoke upon the question OF
Southern education. He said IL was a
most satisfactory task TO those engaged
IN it, 1t is not only Christian and
humane work to educate the negroes,
but, in view OF Lincoln's famous procla-
nation, a patriotic one. And the same,
he continued, is true of the Indians, for
there il too much truth in the satire
that our forefathers, the first American
settlers, first fell on their knees. and
then on the aborignes.
The music for the evening was fur
nished by a quartet of jubilee singers
from Hampton.
