THE STORY OF TIDE NEGRO"

DIR. Booker r. Washington has
certainly assumed the role OF the
historian in his rather remarkable
dissertation upon the Negro. At
times, IL is difficult to comprehend
and hard to believe that he himself
IS one Of the despised race whom he
so impartially describes and that he
has felt the oppression OF slavery
at the hands Of some of the white
people upon whom he lavishes
praise.
For diplomacy and good judgment
this contribution to literature will
rank among the favorite productions
of the age. He says:
