CHRISTMAS.

Before another issue of The BY
stander Christmas will have come and
gone forever, never again to be en-
joyed in this century. But as we think
to men to deepen with each passing
year. Since we last stood at this our
annual and customary festival last year
our planet has carried the human race
around the sun 500 millions of miles,
and each December ask the sun to look
down upon greater and better hu-
man race, larger cities, greater achieve
ments, better homes and richer fields.
Must the human race stand still? The
scenes of barbarism, lynchings and OPP
preston must give way to scenes OF
friendship, enlightenment and reason.
Percussion, liberty and justice are a
higher art than prejudice, jealousy and
ignorance. Yet some of the American
people. especially in the southern sec
ton of the United States, we are sorry
to say, have not risen to that higher
conception Of universal brotherhood
and due respect for all: but we hope
when they meet around their festival
table this Christmas that they may re-
fleet and think and make change for
the better. SO that the whole American
family may pass from the old to the
new century with our newly acquired
island brothers and march onward and
upward, that we may rejoice more ana
be merry each Christmas. May sun
shine and plenty bless US all, and each
the poor and the rich. shall be happy.

FIVE GREAT NEEDS or
TIE RACE.

There are manv THINGS needed that
are essential to the development Of the
negro race and some things that all
races need; but today the five things
most needed for our race are: Wealth,
family training, the church. the state
and the school. We must be taught
the sacred character and educational
value of the family and the higher and
refined ideals of home life. OF wealth
we must learn to be Industrious, econo-
mical, and frugality. 1t is so Of the
church--we must learn IT'S theory of
life its view Of the world and Of the
destiny of man. In like manner we
must be taught the science of govern
ment and to take our rightful part in
the responsibilities and the privileges
Of the state and in the making Of laws.
And last Is the school. around which Is
centered. and from which Is emanated,
the greatest power which moves the
world, for without education man Is
a mere animal, just above the beast. 1t
is educat ton that builds up good char
actcr. Loftier ideas ennoble the soul
and broadens the mind. 1t is educa-
ton which organizes civil society ana
stands for purity, honesty and mo"al-
itv: and without the proper instruction
in those five needs of the race we can
never hope to lead the race upward to
that high degree Of civilization that we
optimists may hope for. -
