The State Negro Business League
of Arkansas will hold its annual meet
ing at Little Rock, Ark, December 2S,
to the 30th, 903. In commendation
of this League, it can be said that the
colored men engaged in business in
all parts of the State are interested
in it and the attendance will be un-
usually large. The Colored School
Teachers Association will meet in
Little Rock at the same time. and the
professional men such as lawyers.
doctors and ministers from all over
the state have been notified to be pres
-ent. The colored people of Arkansas
take the lead when it comes to en-
gaging in and operating business en-
terprises.

THE BUSINESS LEAGUE.

Of the many organizations started
by the colored people of late years,
none seems to have struck such
popular chord, to have filed such
long felt want and to have organized
at such an opportune time as the Nat
ional Negro Business League organ
lied in Boston, Mass, more than four
years ago. From the very organlza-
tion of the Business League a new
life and energy seems to have crept
into the colored people from all points.
Colored men who had never thought
Of engaging in business before got the
inspiration and have gone out in their
own way to solve the problem along
commercial lines. The Business Lea
que is a national organization and has
organized branches in nearly every
state in the Union, and in nearly eV-
cry community where there are any
considerable number of colored peo-
Ipe. At the fourth annual meeting
in Nashville, Tenn, last August en-
couraging reports came from all parts
of the country, showing that the race
was alive to it's business interests.

doubt as to theusefullness of the Ne

five minutes, then remove from the
fire, add cupful OF sugar and two
tablespoons of salt, turn into a stone

warm, then add one cupful of good
yeast, cover and ferment three or four
hours; stir it down every time it comes

President Eliot Says Educated People Don't

In his annual report to the Harvard
Board of Overseers, made public, Presi-
dent Eliot declared Harvard's policy
to be one Of determined support to the
requirements OF a bachelors degree or
its equivalent for admission to the
professional schools, as now in force in
the departments Of theology, law and
medicine at Harvard, and to an even
higher standard than has hitherto
been set for the degree OF B. M.
After giving statistics to show "that
the highly educated part of the Amer.
lean people does not increase the pop
ulation at all, but on the contrary
fails to reproduce itself, President
Eliot says:
at is probable that the regretable
result is due in part to the late post.
ponement OF marriage on the part of
the educated young men-a postpone
ment which the protracted education
now prescribed for men who enter
the learned and scientific professions
makes almost unavoidable"
