COLORED PUPILS
DISPLAY WORK

Booker T. Washington would receive
no little encouragement in his advo-
cacy of the industrial development of
the negro if he were to visit the annual
exhibition of the Frederick Douglass
School, No. 21, Fifth and Scott streets.
The display is attracting wide interest
among white and colored educators.
The school comprises nearly 200 pupils
studying in all the primary grades.
Miss Julia e. Jones is principal, and
the teachers are Miss Mabel Jones'
Miss Gertrude Jefferson, Miss Sophie
James, Miss Bessie Seeney, Miss S. A.
Christy and Mrs. S. G. Lones. The
studies are entirely in the hands of
colored educators.
Beginning with the first grade, where
children range from years of age to
the tenth grade. the gradual develop
ment of the negro child under the in
lstruetion of teachers of the same race
is seen most forcefully. In the first
grade are made the first attempts at
drawing, construction work in paper
the development of taste and the
awakening of comprehension. Excel
lent examples of the success of these
efforts are exhibited in the class room.
In the second grade the same work,
with perceptible progress is seen, and
in the third grade the pupils have ad-
lvanced to the making of miniature
baskets, carpet weaving, corn husk,
napkin holders, wicker picture frames
and other articles that on a larger
scale could be given ready use. In the
fifth and sixth grades basket making
and weaving are seen at an advanced
stage, and in the seventh and eighth
grades more than ordinary interest is
awakened in the examples of pliable
iron work. In the ninth and tenth
grades. of course, the best work of the
school is exhibited. including splendid
examples of miniature wreath work,
basket making, weaving and the first
attemS.s at water cosering. Perhaps
the most interesting exhibit of this
class and of the entire school Is a
drawing in pencil by Herbert Fisher, a
l10-year-old pupil. whose effort COM
pares favorably with the average
magazine or newspaper illustration.
The most interesting exhibition to
many visitors to the school is that of
the sewing class, which is under the
direction of Mrs Helen Anderson. In
this class the children have departed
from work in miniature and have VEN
tured into the making of actual utili-
ties. such as kinonos, waists and other
articles, several of the children having
made them for their own wear. There
is exhibited with the sewing display a
miniature house, made and furnished
by the boys with the help OF the girls.

in about twelve years. Having taken
advantage of your excellent Insurance

when the Loan ran out.
