So many mothers say. II would

STILL ALIVE.

BE II understood brethren that
the principles upon which the Vir-
ginia Baptist State Convention stands
are still alive. They will ever be
alive. We cannot go back from
them. me must be manly. We must do
something for ourselves In way
that will gain for us respect and APP
probation. Indeed the principles
which We represent are spreading
everywhere. Negroes throughout the
broadland are beginning to learn
that N they would succeed in life
self-help must be an underlying
principle Of their civilization. AL.
ready more farms are being bought,
more homes secured. better church
es built, hotels opened, more than
fifty banks running successfully and
a thousand other enterprises which
heretofore have not been entered
into by the Negro race are now be
ing managed and controlled by its
leaders. IL must be remembered that
this wild espread manly, noble high
stand taken by the race has been
largely instigated and urged on by
the course taken by those OF us who
represent the Virginia Baptist State
Convention and the great National
Baptist Convention.

with sore reverses. Therefore IN or.
