AN APPEAL FOR ATLANTA UNIVERSITY

To the Editor of The New York Tribune.
Sir: The condtt in which Atlanta University,
with its great work for the negro race and the
country, finds itself to-day is OF mingled en-
couragement and solictude.
On the bright side of the record may be set down
such items these: a. A marked increase In re-
cent years in the enrolment Of advanced students
entering the higher classes from secondary scnools
taught by graduates; G) a consequent
Improvement in the quality of the work now done
at the university, with promise of even more fruit
full results of benefcent service this second
Grafton Of students out to work for the uplifting
of their people, C) TO further this end careful
revision of the of study with reference to
better coordination of subjects and the meeting OF
present and local needs; eD the prospect of the
early erection OF a building for a practice
school and kindergarten in connection with our
normal department, with funds already pledged by
the General Education Board of New-York and
about thirty other friends: 90 the further pedgng
of nearly all the funds needed for the support of
the work of the practice school for three years to
come: (6) the financial success of the university in
meeting all its current expenses for the last three
years. and the recent reduction of its debt by Se0
funds
On tho other side of the record are obliged to
note: % slight falling off in the gifts of regular
donors compared with last year; (0 much
larger reduction Of income from special gifts and
tinued embarrassment of a debt which, though re-
duced is still too large. and Of an endowment fund
altogether inadequate to sustain the present work
