Patrons Manning Colored Schools.

Patrons OF Manning co!OreG school
please adhear 20 these few suggestions.
Do not attempt to buy school books be.
fore the pupils are Sent TO school tor
classification To do so you confuse The
book dealer and may in the event lose
money, because books bought, carried
away and soiled, are not again accepted
for proper ones. LIT the teachers Send
YOU a list. Take this list and old books
to the dealer where tht Old books are
exchanged. This saves you money.
When it is possible. wish the color
ed patrons would pay their contio2en'
fees fur the term in advance At 25c
per month The fees for !h:. school Year
would be about s. 90. You know how
we labcred last spring in trying TO make
uece.Sary repairs on TIL. new school
property after it was turned over TO US
by The trustees Of the Mannip- public
schools We have notes TO the amount
of 5000 brought over from last season,
besides. we need furniture, supplies,
aues aud equipments, we cannot sleep.
These amounts can be raised if every
colored man aud woman interested 10
education will give 81. This is why
sue gest that you pay up your contingent
fees. These monthly fees are the only
supplement TO the regular school fund
and cannot be used to liquidate debts
have referred To above. But little ef.
fort now and "pull together" will
bring success.
I have had ha,d struggle in this
field, as have many other colored mer
here who have done much. We eXpec,
another. hard years work. The colored
people are the direct beueiiciaries. no,
the whites. yet the white people OF Man'
n!ny have given me many donations ir
the work here. thus enabling us to sue
cred wherein we would have otherwise
failed. | trust that these suggestions
viii be accepted and taken up by every
coloreti person in this school district,
I. NJ. \. MYERS.
