4. st. Louis, July l9-The new
Booker Washington theater, at
Twenty-third and Market streets,
was opened on Monday night to
an enthusiastic crowd that filled
this beautiful building TO the doors
and overhowed into the surround
ing thoroughfares. The new
house is one of the best equipped
in the city, and is surpassed by
few playhouses, if any, operated by
colored men in the country. Built
of fine quality of yellow frepIoof
brick and concrete, with concrete
roof and floor, it is absolutely fire.
proof, and is the latest thing in
sanitation for buildings. Accord
ing to inspectors, it is one of the
safest and cleanest buildings in
the city. They state that a fire is
impossible and that there need
never be panic. Everything
necessary to make the first class
and comfortable has been done.
There are thousands of square
feet of win dows and "a full COM
pliment of electric fans. The
floor is built dt such an engle that
the stage can be seen from every
point in the building to good ad-
vantage. Opera chairs with steel
frames have been installed and in
such manner that each patron pat
ron has plenty of arm room. Be-
sides these comfortable chairs,
there are two boxes, holding forty
two people each. Each box is
well equipped and beautifully dec
GRATED. AS for the stage, every
convenience known to stage craft
has been installed. The dressing
rooms for actors are we'll appoint

Tuskegee Institute, Alabama,
July 15.-With but two weeks
passed Tuskegee Institute has
broken all records in its summer
school attendance. 1t has now
nearly sixty more than it had en-
rolled at the close of last year and
almost twice as many as the first
wear. Enrolment was POT in 1910,
232 in 1911, 307 in 1912 and 1856 at
the present time. Each train
brings a few more recruits. One
feature of great attraction to teach
ers is the review of work TO be COW
cred by examinations in the var
ious states. Twenty. five to fifty
teachers are enrolled in the gram
mar, arithmetic and literature
classes, getting ready either to re-
Lew their certificates in the sane
grade in which they now teach or
to Try for a higher grade. This
feature especially attractive to
teachers in Alabama, since the
state examination is held on the
Tuskegee grounds immeoi tieiy af-
ter the close of the summer school.

My attention is called to circu-

expressed hope that this is but at
starting point for a greater and more

THE NEGRO SUMNER SCHOOL
(By ]. Q. Johnson.)

The Summer School for Negro
Christian minister's and workers, held
under the auspices of the Nashville
Institute for Negro Christian Work
ers was held June 1927 This was a
rare treat for the colored ministers of
the city of all denominations. This
movement promises to be a manual
meeting for the Negro ministry, Of
the same character as the Vanderbilt
summer school The man who organ
lied it is a Vanderbilt man, who felt
at Negro ministers needed the
same kind of help and inspiration
that were afforded the white minis
tiers. The aim of the school is not
to change any man from his denomi-
national persuasion, but to help Ne
gro leaders in the work of the minis
try, to study the field and the meth.
DDS of ministers and other Christian
workers.
The movement is cooperative.
Leaders from every field of Christian
work made up the program. AT
no cost to ourselves, the noted speak
ers of the Vanderbilt Summer School
came to our meeting and delivered
the same lectures as were given at
Vanderbilt. The program also was
was made up with lectures from some
of the leading ministers of the city,
colored and white. If the first SEES
sion is a prophecy of the next, this
movement promises to develop into
"a great Negro Chautauqua.
The first session opened Monday,
June %. at 400 p. m. with lecture
by DR.. Smaller Matthews, of the Uni.
versity of Chicago. He made a talk
on the parallels found in Matthew 10
Dr. Matthews said that a parable was
"a story to illustrate a truth. Jesus
was a great story-teller and the world
has not forgotten his stories. The
parable of the Sewer illustrated how

bands. During the day the Tuskegee
bands serenaded the various papers
of the city and we're given great ova-

reached last night. Never in the
history of st. Louis did so many
people attend a band concert. 1t was
called the nftieth anniversary of the
Negro in Music
The concert was under the auspices
Of st. Paul A. NJ E. Church, of which
the Rev. w Sampson Brooks is pas
tor. Every paper in the city has
spoken highly of the celebration and
contributed to its success.
Dr. Brooks is doing a great work in
the city. He has brought here some
of the most noted men and women
of the race to speak to the people,
and he is constantly doing something
for the advancement of the race and
the salvation of souls.
