forehanded enough TO avoid the neeces-
sity for shopping at the last minute.

Il do all my shopping by proxy he
declared. My wife attends to that"
However, Coy. Wilson found later that
he needed dress shirt His wife was
busy. SO he walked with the newspaper
reporters over to store a few doors
from the hotel He went about this
business of buying shirt with grim
earnestness.
After some investigation, the governor
picked out So shirt, paid for it and
sat down to wait for his purchase. He
waited and waited Not even the pres.
ident-elect Of the United States could

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. lS.--Demo-
crat in Congress will be able to put
through new tariff bill by next July,
according TO the opinion of Congressman
Underwood. Whether revision OF the
tariff downward will be effected by con
sidering one schedule at time or
whether it will be by a general bill. Mr..
Underwood says, is a matter of policy
for the committee to determine.
Mr.. Underwood says there will be a
revision of the entire tariff, but he
would not predict whit methods would
be applied. He is pleased with President
elect Wilson's decision to call special
session of Congress. He thinks the
pledges of the Democratic party should
be redeemed as soon as possible. Mr..
Underwood expects to 90 To Washing

committee. ten members of which out OF
fourteen hold over. Necessary hearings
and practically all preliminary work can
be done this winter, | believe, and the
matter can be put in shape for prompt
consideration when the special session Of
Congress opens next spring.
"The information gathered will be
turned over to the new tariff committee
and it will determine the method OF
procedure to be followed. There will be
revision Of the tariff bill as whole, but
| would not undertake to predict wheth-
er the bill will be taken up schedule by
schedule or whether general bill be
submitted, as that is a matter OF policy
to be determined by the committee, Of
which | have not yet been reelected
However, believe the matter will be
whipped into shape this winter, to be
ready for prompt consideration next |
spring. II should not take more than
thirty days or six weeks to get new
bill through the House, but there may
be some delay in the Senate. My guess
IS that the work Of revising the tariff |
downward will be completed by July"
Asked if matters other than the tariff |
we're likely to be considered at the spe-
,ial session Mr.. Underwood replied that I
he did not know.

SOUTHERN SCHOOLS EXCEL
JENKINS LLOYD JONES TELLS OF
PRACTICAL TRAINING HE WIT
MESSED ON TRIP SOUTH.

Chicago, Ill.-Schools for negro chill
dren in the south were pictured as be-
ing more practical than Chicago
schools by Jenkin Lloyd Jones in a
sermon at All Souls church in Abra-
ham Lincoln Center. Mr.. Jones re-
turned from southern trip few days
ago. Speaking of what he had wit
messed, Mr.. Jones said:
Down in Charleston, S. c., the
other day, l saw the public school
board doing for the colored bys and
girls, at the expense of the city, what
our boasted system in Chicago fails to
do. There the children of the sixth,
seventh and eighth grades find them
selves in a well-equipped, modern, up
to-date building, equipped for manual
training such as is provided in the
technical training high schols of the
north.
There boys and girls were doing
real things, mending their own shoes,
washing their own clothes, running
the penny lunch counter for the bene-
fit of the school children, planting
beans in the fiye-acre lot, actually

grounds. Boys of the seventh and
eighth grades had already built the
brick foundation and were then put
ting in the timber, handling the by s
sleepers, setting up the by stud
ding, not a man on the job, black or
white, except the white teacher, who
directed the work from architectural
drawings.
The school yard had a new fence
freshly painted-work done by the
boys. In the new building the iron
posts in the inside were being cased
polished and stained by grammar
grade boys.
These children, while their time is
not too valuable, are giving the three
or four hours day, not the three or
four hours a week provided for our
on technical lines. Now this was not
done to the exclusion of the book
tasks, as the blackboards, the singing
and the exercises in literature, geog-
raphy and history, amply showed.
1T is pathetic to think of the over
worked children. Drudgery is bad
enough for the adult, it is intolerable
for the child. But the underworked
child made the victim of Incidence,
the apathetic child. made such for
want of the stimuli that goes with Gre
alton, is still more pathetic. There are
great revolutionary reforms and recre-
ations lowering over the educational
systems of our day"

STINS0N PRAISES METHODS
OF SOUTH
NEGRO EDUCATOR TELLS Me-
eRoES THAT SOUTH is
BEST PLACE..

Conyers, Ga,-The negro public
mon preached In Macedonia Baptist
church by Rev. Richard D. Stinson,
principal OF the Atlanta Normal and
Industrial Institute. C. L. Maxey has
served the colored people here for
three years as principal. The congre-
cation was large and seemed to ap-
preciate the sensible and forceful re-
marks of the speaker.
Among the things Principal Stinson
said was: Practical, useful, every
day Christian education is the saliva
tion Of our people. 1t is appropriate
that we should have these sermons
and the influence of Christian teach
ers to shape the life and good beha-
vior OF the negro youth. 1t is encour-
aging to note how the best people
of the south are substantially taking
hold Of the educational problem for
the good of both races.
THE south is laying foundation for
which the world is bound to COM
mend
"The youth should be taught to have
confidence in the community where
they live; they should know how to
earn an honest living for themselves.
and l believe the best people among
us are willing to see that every negro
child has a decent. English education.
which Is substantial foundation for
successful lifework. The negro
teacher cannot be zoo devoted to this
cause Of helping the masses to more
respectable life.
81 verify believe that the south is
place for the great mass of us-good
health. good climate and plenty of
| honest work for us all to do If we will
do 1t, are some of the essentials for
our future welfare. The boards of
education in different parts of the
state are seeing the wisdom of aiding
our people in their educational strug-
giles, for they realize that ignorance is
dangerous element in the life of any
people
when l realize what the best peo-
pie of Atlanta have done in helping
to establish an industrial school in
Atlanta, to aid the cooks, walters,
housekeepers, and in fact, all of that
army who must work with their hands
for an honest living-I say when I
realize what the people of Atlanta
have and are now doing to help the
negro youth, | commend the south
with all my heart"

Rochester.-The game of craps was
used as a brain test. The subject of
the experiment was William Twiman.
a Scottsville negro, who Is in jail

murdered Deputy Sheriff Birmingham.
Twiman has been posing as an in

the prisoner could play craps it was
a pretty good sign of fair average
mental ability. Steel die pieces
were used in the experiment instead
of pennies.
The negro frightened up the mo-

"a winning gait throughout the con-
test. He watched his opponent
sharply and never missed a chance

Mr.. Scott said in part:
Il am to talk to you today on the
subject of Training for Service
come to urge upon you that you fit
yourselves for that service which
serves God and ones fellows. that puts
aside the temptation to seek the life
of ease and personal comfort and
financial aggrandizement, and which
seeks instead that economic independ-
ence, that helping of the weaker man,
that cooperation between the races,
without which we surely must fail,
and for the good Of our section and
our common country. These are at
the very foundation of well ordered,
helpful, efficient life.
Just as Hampton and Tuskegee
have stood for those things, so Vor-
hees, under your modest, efficient,
self-sacrificing principal and treasurer,
with their devoted helpers, stand for
them Not rights alone, but duties and
responsibilities as well, with a sober
appreciation of the opportunities and
privileges all about to develop into

is a rich heritage, for you have had
opportunity to study, to work, to be a
part of a school whose ideals have
come from two great souls: Gen. Sam

Atlanta.-A. F. Herndon, one of the
pest-known and most highly respect
ed negroes of Atlanta, left for New
York, where he will be married to
Jessie F. Gillespie, taking his bride
on wedding trip that will include
the principal countries of Europe and
which will last four months.
Born slave, commencing life In a
community enfeebled by four years of
war, handicapped by lack of training
and resources, Herndon has achieved
IN the last forty years success that
is remarkable In the annals of the
south. and has placed himself at the
mead OF his race In this city, in a
financial way and In all matters of
progress.
He numbers his friends among the
white people of the city by the score.
FOR many years proprietor of the lead
Ing barber shop on Peachtree street
he had for his customers the men who
have made history, governors. con-
gressmen, financiers, all of whom liked
and respected him. Since going into
the insurance and banking business
ne has steadily mounted in the world.
until now, still far from being an old
man, he has accumulated a comfort
apie fortune, built home that vies in
beauty with many show places of the
south, and is a force and power for
good among his people.
Herndon was born in Walton coun-
ty, near Social Circle, and took his
name from the white family that own
ed his parents. He was only about
10 years old when set free by the close
of the Civil war.
At that time he removed to Jones'
vile, where he grew into early man.
hood, and 1t was here that he first
practiced his trade He owned a small
barber shop, and by thrift and indus
try accumulated money. In 1882 he
came to Atlanta.
1t was then that he established the
"Herpdon's" shop that has been a part
of the city for SO many years. By
successful management and his high
self-respect he won the aid and friend
ship of leading white people, and be-
gan to lay the foundations for the
fortune which he has accumulated.
He was manager OF the shop at Sc
Peachtree street until few years ago.
when he relinquished that. though still
retaining his interest in it, to become
president of the Atlanta Mutual In
surance association. which does a
prosperous business among the ne
groes of the state.
When he came to build his home,
near the Atlanta university, it is said
Herndon consulted no one but, taking
the ideas that he liked best. embodied
them in a house that is excellent In
taste and proportion. 1t is built of
brick. with white column entrance,
and broad piazzas on each side. The
yard is beautifully kept and is sur
rounded by a substantial stone wall.
81 designed it and built it myself.
Herndon says, when you ask him
about it.
Accompanying him to New York
Monday was his 15-year-old son by a
former marriage, who will make the
trip abroad with his father. They will
return to Atlanta about October 1.
