MAN WHO HAS BEEN kSUCCESS
Durham. n C Nav

Durham, n. G., May "a
The first IS years of his life were
spent on the farm; the next FIVE wears
were spent in the tobacco factories
During these years, from 10 to Fl, he
attended county public schools on an
average of two months a year. He
also attended night school the last
five years and worked in the factory
during the day.
At the age of 22, he entered Shaw
University at Raleigh, N. C., with
$3.50, the savings of one years
work. His parents being poor and
unable to help him, he had to leave
school after four months, but he was
not discouraged. He saved enough
during that year TO re-enter the Uni
versity at the beginning of the Fall
term. AT this point Gen. Julian S.
Carr thought he saw something in the
struggling youth and agreed to pay
his tuition, which he did for four
years, and in 1896 Prof. Pearson grad
uated with honors from the Univer-
sity.
In the same year of his graduation
he took charge of the village school,
and two years later was elected prin-
cipal of the City High School, which
position he is still holding. The pres
ent enrolment of his school IS 800,
with IS well equipped teachers. Be
side the literary course, they have de-
partments of domestic science, art,
millinery and woodwork These de-
partmentS are we'll equipped, and
when work is turned out, it equals
that which comes from any factory.

work shop, equals that which comes
from the factories in Michigan
Aside from his school work, he has
founded the Mechanics and Farmers
Bank, established Whitted Wood
working & Manufacturing Company,
of which he is president He is also
president of the Durham Broom Fac
tory and manager of a fraternal or
ganization known as the Royal
Knights of King David The Royal
Knights of King David, the fraternal
organization of which he is manager,
is one of the greatest Negro organiza-
tions in the world and is doing an i'm
mense business in the Southern
States.
He has worked every hour of his
life and has made a very nice little
fortune of $4,000.
Prof. Pearson, thus striving onward
and upward, did not forget the poor
around him. Seeing some were
scarcely able to get the necessities of
life, he founded, September ri, 1888,
in the city of Durham, N. c., this
great fraternal organization, which
has $4,000 at the back of it, and
$1,000 has been placed with the In
surance Commissioner TO protect
every member
The Royal Knights of King David
is 2 chartered secret institution and
has its signs, grips, passwords, jewels,
etc, and can be sued. No person can
have an excuse as to the joining fees,
