fculty and perplexry OF this problem.

rassment OF conditions for which she is

10 help her where help is practicable, and
have the heartiest respect for those brave
and earnest men OF the south, who, in
the face Of fearful difficulties, are doing
all that men can do for the betterment
alike OF white end black.
The problem Is so TO adjust the rela-
tions between two races OF different ethnic
type that the rights OF neither be abridged
nor jeopardei: that the backward race be
trained so that it may enter into the
possession Of true freedom. while the for
ward race is enabled 10 preserve unharm-

its forefathers.
