EDITORIAL
Rail-, IS DEGRADING.

The recent stand that the Des
DcS Moines Ministerial Alliance has
taken against the Interstate Literary
Society permitting their name to be
used in connection with dance to be
given at Shrine Temple was very
timely and should meet the general APP
proval of all thoughtful Christian
people. If the Interstate Literary
Society means anything or stands for
anything it means advancement, and
certainly thee can be no elevation in
attending dance. Neither do we
think that parents are educating their
children in our schools and colleges to
send them as delegates to a Literary
Society that would invite or tolerate a
dance to be given and invite those
choice scholars to a dance. A banquet
or something higher ought to be sub
stituted. It is a shame and stigma
on such d society. We approve OF
everything those ministers say in tn,
article which appears in this issue OF

THE NEW AWAKENING.

The American Negroes are becoming
to realize that new era, new condi.
tions, new developments are opening
up for the Industrious negro fields
hitherfore undeveloped opportunities
once closed in now opened. The negro
has begun to enter into business ven.
lures along the lines Of drug stores,
groceries, confectionaries, dry goods
stores, restaurants and skilled labor. In
fact this is noticeable in the South
and other places where racial lines are
being drawn. The white businessmen
are fast becoming to know that he can.
not hope to hold the colored man s
trade and draw the color line as their
race is doing. They also realize that
the educated businessman will now
keep in store the same class of goods
that any SINH lar store carry. Then
above all the white mans prejudice is
drawing the color line is in reality the
making of our race. 1t is forcing them
to patronize their own men in business
1t is bringing them together, uniting
them as nothing else could at this stage
Of our development. 1t is making us
trust one another. 1t will ultimately
make our race open up opera houses
of our own, banks, stores, amusement
parks, factories, work shops and all
! other business will be satisfactorily
conducted and our young men and gilrs
will have employment in these places,
and then we will become independent
and not dependent, then the world Will
respect US and heed to our demands.
Then and there We will become great
! power in our nation.
