ard of correct, useful living, that will
be standard for the shiftless ones,
and shining example of encourage
ment to the lower strata in their
race. The Durham Negroes have
risen far above most communities in
their high standard of morality and

Booker Washington, in planning
and operating a great school for the
mechanical education of the Negro,
has wrought we'll, and his work is of
national fame. There is in Durham
Negro, DR.. James E. Shepard, who
has gone a step farther and higher,
and evolved a great system for the
uplift of his race-the religious train
| ing of the religious teachers and re-
| ligious workers of the Negro race,
and by this religious culture awaken
the sluggish, dormant energies of the
individual and turn them into chan
neis OF usefulness and service. A re-
| lIgiOus training will tend to the care
of the educational and industrial side
of life. This is the fundamental idea
OF the National Religious Training
School, an institution, beautifully To-
, Gated near the city of Durham, and
where It's property now totals over
$4,000. This school IS rising as a
/ lasting memorial to the thought and
labOrs of DR.. James Z. Shepard, who
| IS one of the foremost men OF his race
in the South today.
This school, as its name indicates,
| IS national in its field; IS lnteTdenOmi-
national in character; thorough in in
teilectual processes; evangelical in
doctrine; reverent III spirit; pedagOgi-,
cal IN methods and practical IN aim.
1t IS unique in its idea and particularly
practical IN operation.
There are already four large,
handsome buildings erected on the
grounds, and the school is in success
full operation with I35 students. The
summer school, the past summer, was
largely attended, and was visited by
some of the most distinguished edu-
Gators IN the United States, white as
well as colored,
lilS uecuS OF the lnSIlIuIlO0 now
are $4,000 for buildings; $4,000 for
extension work; $1,000 for water;
$4,000 for equipment; $4,000 for the
erection of a medical missionary
building. All that has been done has
been by generous donations here and
elsewhere, and these present needs
will be supplied when the charitable
people learn what this Durham Ne
gro and his associates are doing.
DR.. Shepard will soon go out on
mission in behalf of this school to
awaken new zeal and interest IN his
work. Beginning January 18th, eX-
| Gov R. B. Glenn will go on a two
weeks tour North, making speeches
and telling OF the work For one
week, beginning January goth, Judge
Jeter c, Pritchard will tour New
| England for the same purpose. These
are significant facts. and show that
the Southern white man-especially
North Carolinians-have faith in DR..
Shepard'S work, and are willing to
lend him a helping hand.
How many in the North, and New
England, will join hands with DR..
Shepard in his great work?

REV. GARNER CREATES A SEN
SATION.
Superintendent Stuart Complimented.

At the parents meeting held at the
Garnet school on Wednesday evening
OF last week the Rev. A. c. Garner
pastor of the Plymouth Congregation
al Church, made some remarks that
were pertinent to the present school
situation. He said to the parents
Our schools are in a deplorable con-
dition, not because the teachers are
incompetent, but because they do not
get from the head of the Colored
schools the help, the sympathy and
the inspiration which should come
from that source. 1t Is a great pity
that our assistant superintendent of
colored schools Is a man in whom
neither teacher nor parent can put
confidence. But such IS the case.
When you have business with the
schools 60 to Mr.. Stuart, don't go to

School Boys in India.
Saint Nihal Singh in the Southern
Workman

(Saint Nihal Singh in the Southern
Workman.)
The school hours in India are long
and tedious. In order to walk the
many miles from home to school and
reach there in time, the Indian boy
IS frequently compelled to start at
4 o'clock IN the morning, often before
daylight and without eating any
breakfast. School begins at g o'clock
in the morning and closes at four.
Usually no time IS allowed for recess,
and there Is no noon hour. Sometimes,
however, the boys are allowed fifteen
minutes to eat their pItIfully poor
luncheon, consisting of a handful OF
parched rice or corn. They go with
out breakfast in summer and IN win
ter they eat no lunch. There is no
playground attached to the school. In
deed, the serious, sad faces of the
young lads would lead one to believe
that the boys of India never enjoy any
pleasant relaxation. All their eXer-
else is gained while walking to school
or while doing the chores at home.
before and after school. This kind of
exercise does not afford much fun to
growing boys. At night the little fel
lows are too tired to play, and be
sides, they are forced to study by the
Pickering light of the mustard-oil
lamp, for if they do not have their
lessons perfectly learned the next day,
the teacher will punish them severely.
Punishment in India is no joking mat
ter. The boys are made to squat, put
their arms under their knees from the
back, reach up, and pull their own
ears. This punishment IS especially
severe. Frequently the boys are
caned. They are compelled to bend
over with their hands on their knees
while the teacher beats them across
the hack with 4 cane or stick

LEGISLATIVE
Three Appropriation Bills.
D o | N G S

There are now before the State
Legislature of Colorado three appro-
priation bills which have very direct
and important relation to the irriga-
ton development of this state. These
bills were introduced by Senator Car
penter and have not yet been report
ed out by the finance committee.
The first bill is entitled AN act
concerning a division of topographic
surveys, providing for the manage.
ment and duties of the same. and for
United States geological survey. and
making an appropriation therefor"
The appropriation named in tn bill
is $4,000 annually. The nature of a
United States geological survey map
is probably known to every one who
has been interested either In mining,
irrigation or engineering work. These
maps show the topographic features OF
the land, such as mountains, hills, val
ley and gulches; all bodies OF water,
such as lakes, marshes, streams and
springs; the routes OF travel, such as
railroads, wagon roads and trails,
cities, towns and permanent build
ings, and the names Of natural and
other features, as well as permanent
monuments which are available as
starting points for local surveys, town
ships, section lines. boundaries and
land grants. They serve great varie-
ty Of purposes, but are especially val
uahle In connection with preliminary
locations Of railroads, canals and high
ways, and are very useful to prospec-
tive investors and settlers in making
a study of the country in which they
propose to locate. They are also very
valuable to travellers, prospectors, ETC.,
as guide maps. They are very useful
in the study of water powers and the
development OF the mining interests
of the state.

THE ALARMING PREVALENCE
OF ECZEMA
FInds Victims Among Every Race,
Age and Condition.

OF all tho diseases OF tho skin and
scalp which torture and disfgure man
kind. threefourths are eczematous.
Millions are born with eczema, and 1t
is the only thing other millions have
left when they die. Neglect in infancy
and childhood, irritating conditions af-
fecting the skin, ignorance OF its real
nature, improper remedies and many
other causes that might be mentioned
have created an eczema which, with
varying severity, has afflicted count
less numbers during their entire lives.
Eczema is a skin disease. 1t is not re-
garded as hereditary, nor contagious.
and is imparually distributed among
the rich and poor, the high and low.
The agonizing itching and burning OF
the skin, causing loss OF sleep, is usual
ly the most distressing symptom and Is
caused by the bursting of little vesicles
filled with an acr1d fluid, which burns
as with fire the denuded skin. New
vesicles form, fill and burst, scales
form upon scales, and crusts upon
crusts until Disagreement Is added to
torture.
One OF the most successful treat
ments for eczema, whether applied to
the youngest infant or the Oldest per-
son, is hot baths with Cuticura Soap
and gentle anointings OF Cuticura oint-
ment. For more than a generation.
these pure, sweet and gentle emolli-
ents have proved the most efficient
agents In the speedy and permanent
relief of all forms Of eczemas, rashes,
itchings and irritations of the skin and
scalp Although Cuticura soap and
ointment are sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, In order that
those who have suffered long and
hopelessly and who have lost faith in
everything may make trial of them
