LIVELY INTEREST SHOWN
IN FARMERS CONFERENCE
Recent Meeting Held at Hampton Was
Largely Attended.

Hampton, ya.-The colored people1fa
virginia are successfully working out
their economic salvation and are win
ming the cooperation of the best white
people in their struggles for better
farms. better schools. better health
better homes and better morals. They
are learning that alfalfa fields repre-
sent mines of wealth. Bright and well
equipped schoolrooms in the country
districts attract and hold orderly pu-
pills and earnest teachers. These vital
facts of life on the farm. in the school
and in the home We're vividly present
ed at the farmers conference, its sew
enth annual session recently held at
the Hampton institute.
Hundreds upon hundreds of people
passed through the Hampton institute
gymnasium during the two days of the
farmers conference and examined the
interesting farm. school and home ex-
hibits, which had been sent from all
quarters of Virginia, and. indeed. from
some of the neighboring states.

Polytechnic institute, Blacksburg. Va

had reached bed rock and represented
more reality and less frills than ever
before. He was especially struck with
the marked improvement in the quail
ity of the work which school boys and
girls, farm demonstration agents and
their co-operators. homemakers. super
vising industrial teachers and rural
school workers had submitted for pub
lie exhibition.
The conference program included an
Illustrated talk on Irish Country Life
by Charles X Graham. director of the
Hampton institute agricultural depart
ment: womens meetings for the dis
cussion of laundry problems and the
safeguarding of girls. competitions in
mule and cattle judging. an exciting

UPLIFT WORK In VIRGINIA.
Editors Were Ignored by oreaniza-

l
tion Society, Says Norfolk Paper.
Under the caption Ignored the
| Press the Norfolk tya.) Journa! and
Guide in a recent editorial said:
''The Negro organization society is
in session in Richmond. Summed up
briefly. the object of the society is to
| create for the race better schools. bet
| ter health. better homes. better farms.
We have before US program o~ the
session. in which is represented every
sort of Negro organization and every
agency for the improvement of Negro
life with the exception of the Negro
press.
THE church, the school. the secret
society. the farmer. the physician. the
lawyer. the merchant and even the
humble woman missionary are repre-
sented. but there is no one to speak
for what the press is doing for race up
lift
There are twelve Negro newspa pers
in Virginia. each of which wieIds con-
We're not for these twelve Negro news
papers very little would be known of
the Negro Organization society or OF
those who compose it.
Advance notices of the meeting
We're sent out to most of these papers.
and they were generously published.
Detailed reports of the sessions will be
sent to the papers also. and these will
be published as far as space will per
nit The Negro press is one of the
most unselfish agencies at work for the
uplift of the Negro. one of the most
powerful and yet the least appreciated
The orators on the program of this
meeting will speak their messages to
the hundreds under the sound of their
voices: the Negro press will take up
the message and herald to thousands
and hundreds of thousands of readers.
This is the unselfsh mission of the
Negro press
Just why the press vas ignored in
this important meeting we do not
know. 1t was perhaps just one of
those blunders that are SO often com
mitted by some of the big Negroes
in charge OF the affair who would not
be known outside of their home towns
If 1t were not for the free advertising
given them by the Negro press"

SOUTHERN RACE QUESTIONS
University Commission to Hold Impor-

The third meeting of the university
commission on southern race questions
will be held ~ Richmond. Va. on Dec.

study carefully and TO speak out bold
ly ON the questions affecting the Negro
in his relation to the life of the south

Ii is a nonsalaried body and is com
posed of one representative from each
OF eleven southern state universities.
Its aim is twofold-hrst- to discover
all the facts possible to learn about
the status of the Negro in the south.
and. second. to bring these facts to the
attention of the white people of the
south as effectively as possible. More
than any other one thing. the commits
sion hopes to make southern white men

Professor w. o. Scroggs of the Lou
isiana State university says of the
movement: The four great needs in
dealing with our southern race prob
lens are education. cooperation. pub
licity and patience. As 10 education. |
believe il is highly desirable that a
course of instruction in the race ques-
ton should be given in every institu-

In such n course ii should be the oh

best thought of representative Ameri-

racial relations.
This would undoubtedly have n good
effect. but even then much more Will
remain to be done The real problem.
believe. is not SO much to reach the
university student as ii is to reach the
man who lives on Jones creek at the
head of the hollow. He is not intlu-
enccd by the printed page. but by the
spoken word. and the only spoken
word he ever hears on this subject Is
from one of his own group or from the
lips OF the demagogue."

The presence OF white men as bar

very strange to the old patrons. Un-

The Prison Commission again has
