EXCERPTS FROM AN ADDRESS

TYREE AT THE STATE
FAIR.

Master of Ceremonies, Ladies and
Gentlemen:
L know that you are too happy to lis
ten to speech, at least, the one which
shall give you this afternoon, but
il has been thought necessary and
advisable to add speech-making, so as
to put especial stress on the signifi-
canoe of this enterprise, but which
even the language cannot portray.
This kind of an undertaking is high
mark of civilization and it signifies
that we are getting down to real civil
lization, that we are not only here,
but here to stay and that we are be-
ginning to think along all lines which
tend toward our uplift as a race of
people, We are showing our distinc-
ton from that Of all other people and
are making ourselves felt in all the
world, although we are but simple
member of it. This enterprise is one
that will bring great credit to the
race. 1t shows that we are progress
ing along material lines. have

as much right to have millionaires as
any other race. Why not? | think
that some of this worlds goods should
be enjoyed while living on this earth.
MONEY WELL SPENT.
But the money we spend here is
we'll spent; we can well afford to think
less of economy here. 1t means the
material uplift of the race and the
beauty of our homes within. 1t will
fit us for better citizenship in every
way.
We must all encourage such an en-
terprise as this, that which means so
much to us, to our homes and to the
development of the race in all occupa-

We are beginning to think just like
other people are thinking and we will
be able to do just like other people
are doing, that is, all the higher
things. That which has brought the
other races to higher development and
has caused them to be recognized as
a great nation, will also do the same
for our people and the strides which
we are making in that direction shows
itself in the Tennessee Colored Fair
