A PROPER NEW
YEARS RESOLUTION.


At this time of the year when one
counts up the losses and gains of the
old years endeavors, and lays plans
for future betterment, it would be well
for colored people to give special at
tention TO the losses they have SUI
fered by lack of initiative. The beat
en- path, the crowded business oppor-
tunity, the overmanned trade, set lin
itations that only the exceptional
worker can overcome. Fortune are
made in established lines but usually
they demand time and capital. with
out hands as our capital, a better
opening for us lies in pioneer work
Whether it is mine or farm or city
business, we will do better by enter
ing lines not already crowded than II
we presume that the success OF other
Negroes in a given line is certain
proof that we too will succeed. we
therefore wish our readers to make as
their New Years resolution deter
mination to deem the whole world
their field, and to enter upon any Vo-
cation which they think they can sue
ceed in, whether a host of their Droth-
ers in black have already engaged III
that line and found it feasible

More Pride of Race

From the New York Age we are
glad to quote the following which is
one sign of the feeling among think
ing Negroes that the vital need OF
the day is a keener race conscious
ness.
Yonkers, n. Y, Dec. 12.-Under the
auspices of the Negro Society for HIS
torical Research of Yonkers Alain lie
Roy Locke, of Philadelphia, ex-Rhodes
scholar from Pennsylvania to Oxford
during 1907-10, and present student
at Berlin University, where he IS
studying for the degree of Phi. D.,
read a paper on THE Negro and
Race Tradition" Saturday. Mr.. Locke
is visiting his mother in Philadelphia
and will be in this country until Jan
uary. The meeting was held at the
home of j. E. Bruce, of Sunny Slope
Cottage, and was largely attended by
local and out-of-town guests. gen
eral musical program was arranged,
which was followed by an inspection
OIL the society's archives and memen-
toes. Several presentations were
made, chief among them being an
early engraving of Van Dykes por-
trait of Jacobas Capatem, the Negro
graduate of the University of Leyden,
in the early nth celtury.
Mr. Locke's paper was a discussion
of the aim of a Negro Historical So
ciety. The speaker made a reasoned
plea for a consistent and thorough
going race propaganda along histor-
ical lines, believing it to be the sanest
way in giving content and dignity to
all specifically Negro enterprises and
organization. The American Negro,
he believed faces difficult historical
dilemma and can only solve 1t
through a voluntary adoption and re-
construction of his own tradition. The
lasting injury of the slave regime, in
deed, of his whole history in the coun-
try, has been to degrade his past and
deprive him of his racial affiliations.
In redeeming his past, he may largely
redeem himself at least in his own
estimation, for the most vital OF Ne
gro problems is the problem OF self
respect and corporate pride. Affec-
tive and necessary as this self-respect
and corporate pride is to the Negro
for his practical progress in the coun'
try. a development of that pride ana
self-respect in intellectual and spiri-
tual matters would not only react IA
vorably upon his social condition IN
this country, but anticipate his ultl'
mate solution of his own problem, and
make it easier to live meanwhile un'
der conditions as they are. The pest
way to fight unfair distinction and dis
ordinations is to begin to set up
standards and contrasts of ones own
to replace and redeem the distinctions
forced upon the race. The speaker
was further of the opinion that moth
ing short of a racial consciousness
stretching out beyond mere American
boundaries would satisfy the ultimate
mental and spiritual needs of the Ne
gro in this country.
