After rendering the above program
refr shmeuta we're served.
The young people who rendered the
ah,ce crogran deserve the highest
praise, and certainly Freedmen ought
to feel proud in having Y. +. soci-
etv whose memb ers are able and will
ing n work and exercise every effort
to MAKE tie society equal if not better
than any other similar organization
under the same instances. 1t is
Encouraging to note that most of the
old people are in favor Of the society
and give their hearty support to the
same. But there are, however, a few
who are bold enough to accuse the
society of being Immoral in its char
acter, and to prove this point at one
of the more humorous programs rem
der I'd bv the society some time ago.
To accuse the society of being unre.
liglous and immoral on account OF a
hu morous program rendered. or some
of the faults of the individual mem-
bers, show poor judgment, especially
when we know that the society is only
two months old, and that very few OF
the members have any experience in
society or religious work. For my
part am fully aware of the fact that
the society IS not perfect, or are its
members perfect, but wonder what
is perfect in this world. Give the
Young people time. They have the
talent and spirit to make the society
q factor of much good. Yes to make
an exponent of united philanthrop3c
atlvity in Freedmen. I am surprised
that any one should Oppose tho society
because of a fanlt o. mistake. II We
should cast away everything wherein
a fault could be found there would be
nothing in the world that would re.
