STATE HAS MADE AN OPPORTu,
NIFTY FOR THE NEGRO.

Greensboro. March 30-Much good
was derived from the recent negro
farmers conference held at the A.
and NJ. college for negroes in this
city. President Dudley is the re-
cipient of many letters from farmers
from over the state telling how the
state has so greatly helped them by
having such meetings annually for
them.
The 18th annual session of the
state summer school for negroes will
be held at this college from June
to 80. In addition to the regular
work in the class and lecture rooms
there will be series of lectures on
educational and cognate subjects.
Specialists will give special talks on
various phases of agriculture and
public education.
Since the state has made such an
opportunity for negro teachers; the
buildings and accommodation for
them are equal to the best afforded
them in any section of the country,
teachers are sending in their applica-
tons from various sections of the
state and several other states. Lee
lures will be given that will help
them to reach the masses Of their
race.
