What the souvenir edition is those
who read this may see for themselves

elegant homes that the people have
become the happy possessors of; the
places of business of few and some
cuts of men and women prominent at
some time in the last quarter of CEN
fury in the Twin Cities and at the
celebration.
Though the showing is good, it by
no means can give an adequate idea of
the progress the people have made in
the last twenty-five years for there
are scores of men and women of
worth and ability who are not repre-
scented in these pages and there are
hundreds who own their homes not
shown here; most of them however,
have been purchased within the past
two decades.
What has been done, both in the
celebration and the souvenir edition,
could not have been done without the
support of many loyal friends who
were public spirited enough to help
along the enterprises and to these the
editor desires to express his heartfelt
appreciation and gratitude. May God
bless you all.

TIE STATUS OF THE AFRO-AMER.
ICAN.

There are two writer's of worldwide
reputation who have by their recent
statements in regard to the Afro
American aroused within us renewed
hope, as they have attracted the at
tention of the reading and thinking
public.
One of these writer's is Mary White
OVington, author Of Half Man," in
which she gives evidence of having
made Investigations in regard to the
economic and social condition of the
Afro-American in an unbiased and
painstaking manner. She was in
spired to write the book or, at least,
to give it it's title, from a conversa-
ton with a young Afro-American who
he'd recently returned from Germany,
where he had been engaged in gradu-
ate work. The young man in ques-
ton was born in one of the gulf states,
and when asked by Miss Ovington if
he intended to go back to the south
to teach, said he did not He said:
"My father has attained success in
his native state" he said, "but when
| ceased to be a boy he advised me

sition in which he is placed, and in

Miss Ovington has noticed the
slightly improved condition of the

Half a Man" has an introduction
written by Prof. Franz Boas, who is
! himself the author of "The Mind of
Primitive Man," in which he states
! that within one hundred years the
| people of the United States will have
absorbed all the immigrant blood of
| the thousands of foreigners who have
f1ocked to this country, including that
of the Negro, which he declares will
be good thing. He says further:
II hope the discussions contained

different from our own, and that we
| should learn to look upon foreign races
with greater sympathy and with the
| conviction, that, as all races have
! contributed in the past to cultural
progress in one way or another, so
they will be capable of advancing the
interests of mankind, if we are only
willing to give them a fair opportuni,

Thus it would seem that the con.

African to this country was "a part
