Nanny won't be here much long

not ac' ugly and holler when she puts
him in de tub.
He cant go sit wild his pa at de

sweet and bein' like an angel
He gwine to quit hollerin' dis mint
-yes-he is! He knows he's mammy's
gittin' ole, and got a misery in her
side, so she scarcely could sing when
de preacher axed all dem what loved
de Lawd, to sing las night
Oats right-hor up yer head, and
let nanny part yer hair. like yer pa
got his'n parted-on de side!
Slick out de curls? o, no, don't
slick out dem curls, darlin'-dey looks
so pretty on dat blessed head-don't
wet EN- no more!"
And this is the nanny" Lucille
Stanton has painted in the picture re-
produced.
Glancing at the old face of the black
nanny in the group of darky studies,
one can almost hear the grooming
voice, the gentle intonation, and that
quaint HloholoSulnB Vi tue DldCh indLl-
my as she bathes the little boy to go
sit by his par at the table" She
talks through him to the grown-ups,
and excites his sympathy by the mis-
cry all mammies have in their side.
In the face of Miss Stanton's nanny
is suggested a world of strength, and
tenderness. and there is something
in the picture that suggests q requiem
for the past departing nanny who
was the loving care-taker of "Mis'us'
precious baby boy"

Spring sunshine dries up all the
mists of winter in the human heart.

There are people in the negro race
who almost shout every time an enter
prise run by black men fails. They
do not desire to see persons of their
own color succeed. Such individuals
either do not patronize colored enter
prises or they go to the pains to cheat
these businesses out of money and by
other means put impediments in the
way of their success. If the business
fails they preach 1t from the house
tops and cry aloud, I've got no CON
fidence in colored folks business"
when they contributed no little them
selves to the failure. Our only redress
from such treatment is to stop dealing
with person of this type when he or

by the wind tell in what direction it
blows; so do certain noteworthy Incl
dents of racial life indicate the trend
Of its destiny. We have in mind two
such incidents which have occurred
recently, one in Washington and the
other at Cornell university.
Ambassador James Bryce of Great
Britain created a historic incident
and broke all precedents by address
ing negro audience, the local
branch of the Y. NJ. C. A., in Washing
ton few days ago on the duties of
citizenship. The audience, an intell-
gent one, realized and appreciated the
fact that Mr.. Bryce was the first rep
resentative of great foreign power
to take an active interest in informing
himself as to the progress made by
their people and giving public express
sion to the information he had ac-
quired. He said in the course of his
address many splendid things, and
among them this: Our progenitors
did your progenitors grave injustice
in bringing them to this country in
state of servitude, and it is our duty
to do all in our power to make up for
this injustice" None but a good and
great man could have made such a
confession and backed 1t up with a
declaration that the injustice done us.
as race, should be repaired in so far
as reparation can be made now by the
meeting out of justice and fair treat
ment in all that pertains to us and
our duties as citizens. He was &C
companied by Mrs. Bryce, and was
given tremendous ovation. AS he
entered and left the hall the audience
arose while the band played. God
Save the King" The negro people
have never failed to respond nobly to
those who have given them one word
of encouragement or sympathy in their
endeavor to measure up to the duties
of good citizenship.
On the same that Mr. Bryce spoke.
another historic incident occurred at
Cornell university by the awarding of
the prix 'dhonneur by the Society of
French Professors of America to
James Bertram Clarke, negro stu
dent at that institution. for French
essay on literary topic and a trans
lation Of French author. He was
dlSO dWdIuSu OJieG pTlZeS. he is Il
junior in the College of Arts. Clarke
wrote an article some time since on
the Negro question at Cornell which
caused a storm of comment He is
native of the West Indies
But it matters not from where he
comes, he is a negro and he is making
good. as thousands of young negroes
are doing whenever and wherever they
have anything like fair opportunity.
"One of the serious problems of the
day that causes the intelligent par
ents no little though is the selection
of a suitable institution for the proper
training of their children-an institu-
ton from which the child will not re-
turn worse off morally physically and
intellectually than when he entered"
said Prof. j. A. Wilson in an address
at Sam Houston college, Austin, Tex.
After careful observation it is be-
ing a recognized fact that the best
place to train negro youth is in the
church schools. For in these schools
the student is imbued with religious
principles without which no life is a
complete success. Hence the heart is
trained side by side with the head and
the hand"
The Colorado statesman., 1913-04-26


Several years ago there was a
strong sentiment in the M. e. church
to elect negro bishop. and they be-
gan to look around for the man. There
loomed upon the horizon apparently
the figure of a black Moses. He was
the most brilliant man that Cannon
Theological seminary ever turned out,
and had had the honor to speak upon
the platform with the south's great
est orator, Henry w. Grady. He could
preach with such power that men
would cry out, stop, we can stand
no more!" He was a profound scholar;
he was genial and pleasing in manner
and apparently just the man to grace
the Episcopacy and honor his race.
But what was the CONSERVATION of the
church and his friends to find that
there was a weak link in his charac-
ter. Thus was given a blow to the
sentiment in favor of a negro bishop
from which we have not yet recovered.
One man downed us; it will take ten
thousand pure, spotless lives to re-
store us.

point of youth into the shade of mel

Upper Marlboro. Feb. 15-It looks as
though the old fight between Democratic
factions in Prince George County will
lac renewed at the primaries for the
nomination of State Senator. members of
the House of Delegates and county officers
this summer. As the result of several
conferences held by members of the wing
of the party opposed to the present or
Sanization forces, il is highly probable
that the issue of local option will be in
jccted into the campaign. 1t is under
stood that there are several well-known
Democrats in the county who are willing
TO present their names to the Democratic
voters of the county upon the issue as
to whether or not intoxicating liquors
should be dispensed in Prince George
County.
In other words. they are willing to
pledge themselves to vote for a bill sub
mitting the question to the voters at &
special election to be held during the
spring or summer of 10l4 II the factions
divide upon the question of submitting
such a bill, a lively contest is anticipat-
ed and ii is believed that in many cases
fa.ctional differences will be ignored.
Up TO this time the only candidate to
make formal announcement of candidacy
is Joseph Addison. of Bowie District.
who declares that he proposes to go be-
fore the people with the distinct under
standing that, if nominated and elected
to the house of delegates, he will vote
for a bill submitting the question.
