REFLECTIONS

Adversely is fine. developing. and
rewarding. But there is also virtue
| in variety.
1t would take a great mind to tell
where courageous endurance ends
and thick-skinned Indifference be-
gins.
The first lesson a wife should
learn is that the very traits which
rendered her irresistible before the
ring went on will excite in her hus-
bands heart longing to take it
off.
There's many a black sky that
does not end in a storm.
The man who attends entirely to
his own business is never, never en-
tirely out OF one kind of job.
1t is curious that we often achieve
excellent results from acting on
ideas that we repudiate.
It's all nonsense to say that wom-
an has never been successful in any
! distinctive field. She has always
been an undisputed success as
woman.
Some of our later day political
faddists who claim to carry ABOUT
exclusive specifications for the mil
lennium in their coat-tail pockets
are like those flags on the street
cars that stand out straight from
the pole. even though the wind isn't
blowing. They look mighty patri-
otic, but they are merely wired out
that way for advertising purposes.

THE NEGRO COLLEGE.
BY W. E. BuRGHARDr Du Bors.

The funtion of the negro college
then is clear: it must maintain the
standards OF popular education. 1t
must seek the social regeneration of
the negro. and 1t must help In the
solution Of problems of race contact
and cooperation. And finally. be-
yond all this. 1t must develop men.
Above our modern socialism, and
out of the worship of the mass. must
persist and evolve that higher in
dividualism which the centers of cul-
ture protect; there must come a
loftier respect for the sovereign
human soul that seeks to know it
self and the world about 1t; that
seeks freedom for expansion and
self-development-that will love and
hate and labor in its own way, un-
trammeled alike by old and new.
Such souls aforetime have inspired
: and guided worlds. and II we be not
wholly bewitched by our Rhine gold,
they shall again.
Herein the longing Of black men
must have respect; the rich and bit
ter depth Of their experience, the un-
known treasures of their inner life |
the strange rendings OF nature they |
have seen. may give the world new
points Of view. and make their low
ing. living, and doing precious to all |
human hearts. And to themselves
in these the days that try their souls
the chance to soar in the dim blue
air above the smoke Is to their finer
spirits boon and guerdon for what
they lose on earth by being black
