DR.. WASHINGTONS RECENT
TRIP THROUGH PORTIONS
OF VIRGINIA.
Special TO The Bee.

0PNNAAi ~ l. IN ~
A gentleman who accompanied Or
Booker T. Washington during his
recent trip over the Virginia Rail
way, recites the following incidents
as being significant and remarkable
in connection with his trip:
In the first place, it may interest
the public to know that a special
train was used during the whole OF
this trip, and that the private cal
used by DR.. Washington and party
was the Rocket" the same car that
former President Roosevelt used on
most of his tours throughout the
country.
At one point where a large meet
ing was held, the great grandson OF
Patrick Henry was brought to the
station by his parents for the special
purpose of having DR.. Washington
shake his hand. The parents seemed
to find much delight in having the
privilege of doing so
At several points where the train
stopped, not only were the houses
of colored people decorated with
flags, but many residences of white
people also.
Another thing that was noticeable
in connection with the trip was the
large attendance of white people al
all of the meetings. At several places
the attendance of white people was as
, large or larger than that of the Ne
gro people. At Christiansburg
former Governor Tyler and a party
of his friends rode fifteen miles to be
present at the meeting.
At Suffolk, Virginia, not only die
the Mayor ride with DR.. Washing
ton, through the streets of the city
i'll his automobile, but the city coun
Gil also followed in another automo
bile throughout the entire parad
which had been arranged. The at
tendance of the best class of whit
women at the meetings was also es
pecially noticeable and satisfactory.
! One other thing of importance: A
every point the colored merchant wa
IN evidence, and it was interesting Il
see no wthe white people consider tn
news of the colored business men il
matters Of mutual importance A
cne point in Virginia, at Kenbridge
the leading white man of the towl
remarked to DR.. Washington tha
Negroes had money invested in near
| ly every business enterprise in tn
community and that the white peopl
make it point to get colOred peopl
to invest in every enterprise whicl
the white people have established
thereby creating a community of in
terest.

TUSKEGEE'S LIBRARY OF THE
BEST TYPE

BEST TYPE
MIR. Andrew Carnegie recently pub
liShed over his own signature an in
teresting article in Golfers Weekly
describing various types of libraries
which he has given throughout the
world. While he has given thousands
Of library buildings, he published only
nine photographs of thoses buildings
as indicating the best types. Among
the nine there was the photograph
Of the library building at the Tuske-
gee Institute. The architect of this
building was Mr. R. R Taylor, in
structor in architecture at Tuskegee.
From the Baptist Herald
Professors Cromwell, Clafk and
Sullivan are winning high praise for
their very able instruction in the sub
jects taught in the Summer School
1t is a wonder some of the universi-
ties like Howard, Wilberforce OF
Union does not secure the permanent
services or a historian like Mr.. Crom-
well. It is a credit to the Virginia
Seminary and to the Petersburg In
dustrial Institute that they appreciat-
ed the worth of this historian in his
life time and invited him to lecture
before these 800 young people on the
various phases of the history of our
country

PARAMOUNT HEIGHTS

An enthusiastic mass meeting was
held Friday night, July 23, by the
citizens of Fairmount Heights under
the auspices of the Paramount
Heights Citizens Association.
The meeting was held in the new
public hall on Chapel avenut, which
has just been completed and formal
ly turned over by the contractor, Mr..
Gillian, of 6Ist street.
After the unanimous election of
Sergeant Coleman as President, and
Mr.. Charles Payne Secretary of the
meeting, the general welfare of the
subdivision was discussed.
The improvement and extension of
the District Boulevard was made the
subject of an encouraging report by
a committee appointed by the asso-
citation to take the matter up with
the District Commissioners. 1t was
the sense of the meeting that in vitw
of the interest taken by President
Taft in seeking to reclaim certain
portions of the District of Columbia,
seeded to the states, the effort to
clearly define and improve the boule-
ward which marks the boundary line
of the District should receive a new
impetus. Great satisfaction was ex-
pressed over the Improvements just
completed by the District on the
Sheriff Road and the District Boule-
ward.
Resolutions were passed requiring
each householder owning houses or
lots in the subdivision of Fairmount
Heights to pay an annual due of one
dollar for the further Improvement
of streets.
The light service will also be more
satisfactory through the encourage
ment of the citizens to maintain in
dividual lights in addition to those
maintained by the public.

Long ago the Scotch learned this.

The sturdy old Scotchman must be
amused at the recent discoveries" that
oatmeal is the best food in the world.
Our scientific men have been making
experiments which prove that Ameri-
cans eat too much fat and grease and
not enough cereals.
The Scotchmen say: Look at our
nation as proof. The sturdiest nation
on earth" Still we have one good point
to make. We make better oatmeal than
the Scotch.
They buy Quaker Oats and consider
il the leader of all oatmeals to be had
anywhere. If you are convenient to
the store you'll probably buy the
regular size package. For those who
live in the country the large size family
package is more satisfactory. Follow
the example of the Scotch; eat Quaker
Oats breakfast every day.
