GETTING READY FOR TIi4G
EXPOSITION.

1T is indeed gratifying to note how
rapidly public sentiment is being
formed in favor Of the celebration
or the fiftieth anniversary Of the
emancipation OF the slaves in this
country, and how the different ele-
mcntS are being united and harntoniA
zed in movement which means 50
much for the future Of the race. The
TACT that there is to be no contention
as 70 either men or measures In ac-
Fcothplishing this great undertaking

OUR GRADUATES

There is doubtless much pleasure
to you in seeing your son receive a
diploma from high or normal
school, but have you seriously con-
sidered what the future holds for
him?
You, perhaps, have made S ONE
- sacrifices that this suspicious occa-
sion might be possible: you have
very likely denied Yourself OF LIES
necessities that YOU might see your
son or daughters name among those
who graduated, but have YOU given
any thought to what use this boy
can make Of his education. what re-
turns he will get from your sacri-
fees?
Under present conditions, the Ne
gro girl must take up teaching OF
seek Job as nurse girl or cook
competing with her sister who has
not had or has not accepted her cd
ucatiohal advantages. The bow goes
F into the school room as a teacher o,
r ne drives a delivery wagon for the
simple reason that his race has moi
provided any avenues in which he
may exercise his trained abilities.
There is in this city but little O,

TEACHING MICRO COMMON
SENSE.

The best friend the Negro race is
not the man who prates abstra city
about prejudices and social equality,
Eut the man who presents q con-
structivc plan for the individual and
social evolution Of the race that
through toll and tribulations is COM
ing up From Slavery and in spite
OF lapscs and discouraging sct-backs
is steadily achieving higher stand
ards Of morality, econotny and intel
igence. Booker Washington at
Tusltegee Institute is not satisfied
merely TO inculcate the theory Of
"virtuous cnergizing" He has his
thousands Of students learned to do
something practical. something that
mas a market value. because it II
useful to the world at large. Phila-

WHAT Is A NEGRO:

IL there are many more decisions
zETon the bject of what is Negro,
y I'VE shah soon be at loss to determine
n our raDfal identity. Down in Louis
I lana the supreme court holds that
fAa auadfoon is not a Negro. III the
y District of Columbia an octoroon,
/ having only half the Negro blood Of
{ the quadroon, is under the ban, being
4 classed with those who can show no
! infusion whatever of the blood of
those who make and interpret the
definition.
e Now, will some Solomon tell us
) just where in the dickens We are.
Not that there would be any doubt
Z whatever in the mind of either court
4 as to the racial status of the writer,
7 but for the sake of our lighter-hued
5 brethren, it would be pleasing to
have a nationwide and nation-bind
ing decision on the question as to
which Of us are flesh and which are
fish.
To aid in arriving at conclusion,
We would advise the universal ac-
ceptance of standard based on
color, ranging from mahogany to
marble, each or us being catalogued
on the card nearest our color For
instance there would be blacks, near
blacks browns, near browns. yell
lows, near ycllOwS and SO on up the
line to where the line of demarca-
ton into white would be impcrccpti- |
bic. Those below the halfway line
would be claSscd as Negroes. All
others, white. Negroes, or those |
who are regarded in their commune |
ties as Negroes, do not give a-a-I
continental what arbitrary classified
ton is adopted SO long as they are
lett In the enjoyment of life, liberty |
and the pursuits of happiness, bu; I
being naturally inclined to take the |
line Of least resistance, they would |
accept such classification, if it'll
would bring peace to those RESPONSE |
