hospital conducive to the speedy recov.
cry Of the patients place this hospital
among the best in the country.
Morehouse hall, one Of the best
buildings for its purposes in the east
ern section Of this state, at Waters
institute, Winton, N. c., Is among the
many beautiful structures designed by
the quiet but progressive Professor
Edwards. All kinds Of fine buildings
for both races have been designed and
constructed by him, and he recently
designed a building, In course OF con-
struction at LumbertOn, N. G., which
will add much to the civic pride OF the
town.
But the pride of Raleigh among mer-
camille activities of the race Is the
Capeheart- Edwards building, which ID

one of the best modern two story brick
buildings to be found in the state. 1t
ia known as the NEGRO business cor

leigh Drug company, a sanitary bar
Der shop, with all the appurtenances
necessary for a modern shop; a well
stocked grocery store. one Of the neat
est cafes in the city, and on the third
floor there Is a well kept hall. where
the elite society people hold their en-
tertainments.
Professor Edwards designed roof
garden for this building, which Is the
only one Of its kind for Afro-Ameri'
cans in the state. 1t is well lighted
and affords the better element OF the
race in the city and those visiting here
a place for recreation during the warm
weather. Being part owner Of thia

ter the pubic service, and in this in
stance he feels proud that our optimism
regarding DR.. Turner, that he would
make good, has been verified. DR.. Tur-
ner has the exceptional distinction of
inspecting in two districts, the Second
and Fifth, respectively, Of which Drs.
Hincken and Roach are supervisors,
the only instance Of this kind among
the sixty inspectors Of the city.
Within the two districts he has the
Thomas Durham school, Sixteenth and

James Reynolds school, Twentieth and
Jefferson streets, with 100 pupils, and

and Jefferson streets. The work done
at these schools gives ample evidence
of the commendable ability Of this
young man.
DIR. Turner has done his work well.
This fact is testified to by DR.. Walter
8. Cornell, director Of the medical in
spection of public schools, who said:
II am glad to add this word Of testt-
mony by way of commentator. DIR.
]. p. Turner is efficient in every way
and Is doing excellent work, and the
department is gratified with what he
Is doing in successfully caring for the
work under his charge"
DIR. John P. Turner represents the
best Of our young men practcing the
profession of medicine and has been
q success. For the appointment as
medical inspector of public schools DR..
Turner received the cordial indorse-
ment of prominent white and Afro
American citizens.
DR.. Turner is a native Of Raleigh, N.
G., but took his preliminary training
in the public schools Of New York and
subsequently in the College Of the City
of New York. He is graduate In
medicine from Shaw university, class
Of 1905, which same year he came to

RECORD YEAR IN FINANCE.

ALABAMA savings INSTITUTIONS noto
Double Celebration In Birmingham.
The opening Of the new Alabama
Penny Savings bank building in Biz
mingham on Wednesday, Jan. 1, at
forded an opportunity to the public in
and out Of the city to personally wit
ness the progress Of Afro-Americans in
big financial undertakings. The exer-
sises had twofold purpose, the open.
ing of the new bank building and the
celebration of the fftieth anniversary
of the issuance Of the proclamation Of
emancipation.
One Of the main speakers on this &C.
casion was former Congressman George
w. Murray of South Carolina. The ex-
ercises were interesting in every de-
tail.
The Alabama Penny Savings bank
was organized over twenty-five years
ago and is Justly referred to as the
mother Of financial institutions
among the colored people Of the United
States. It has branches In Montgom-
cry, Admission and Selma. The bulk Of
business done by these institutions in
1912 amounted to $497, 202.41.
DR.. w. R. Pettiford, founder and
president of the Alabama Penny Saw
ings bank, declares that the institution
will make a special effort to get men,
bers of the race to realize the neces-
sity Of saving more Of their earnings
and thereby become strong financially.
He regards the dedication Of this new
building and the successful career en-
bodied therein as sign Of financial
freedom toward which the race is fast
approaching.
The new building has been erected at
a cost of 100000 and is six story,
steel REINFORCED structure in the heart
Of the business section. 1t is distinct
note in the mechanical and business
circles among colored people and was
designed by colored architects and
erected by colored contractors. It's ex-
terror is imposing and beautiful, and
the interior Is Of the best and most ap-
proved material in bank and Office fix
lures.
DR.. Pettiford, president. and Mr.. B.
n. Hudson, cashier, both declare that
the Alabama Penny Savings bank and
its branches are offering an opportu-
nifty to the race to answer SO far as 1t
relates to it's commercial development.
Has the Negro manifested in the past
fifty years of freedom sufficient evil
dence Of his capability to become rec
ognized factor in the commercial and
financial arena?
The success of the Penny Savings
bank, like the progress of the race, &C.
cording to DR.. Pettiford, will be in
creased as the race learns to direct it's
trade and patronage in channels that
will yield the best results.
The opening of this new building,
with first class offices for the business
and professional men Of Birmingham,
speaks volumes for the business ability
of the financial leaders Of the Birming-
ham district and for the possibilities of
the colored people in this community.
Thoughtful and influential leaders in
large numbers from various portions of
the state Joined the Birmingham people
, In the celebration.

Dudley, the well known educator, Is

He is also a most successful business

leaders of that class Of young men

Despite the competition Of expert

other parts of the country, Professor
Edwards design for the beautiful $780,

this hospital, which was recently COM

1t is the pride Of the graduates Of the

No Fear About InterraoiaI Marriage.

No Fear About Interraoial Marriage.
No one need be unduly alarmed over
Congressman Roddenbery's scheme to
put a stop to intermarriage between
white and colored persons. The white
people of the United States know well
enough that there were no mulattoes
in the cargo Of African Negroes which
landed at Jamestown. Va, in 1919.
They also know that the colored people
in this country would be pure bloods
to this day If there had been no out
side racial Interference. However, the
Bible is our highest authority on the
question Of marriage. 1t says mar
rage is honorable among all men.
This is a generic term which we inter-
pref to mean mankind or the human
family.
Unfairness Of Public Segregation.
All attempts at segregation in our
public school system should be met
with the strongest possible opposition.
The same must be done in regard to
public conveyances. such as railroads,
steamboats,, street cars and the like.
The false notion Of some people that
separation of the races breeds friend
ship and promotes peace Is as Illogical
as damming river to keep It from
OVERLOOKING its banks. No class Of citi-
zens in a republic like ours should be
Inundated by selfish and unjust legis
lation.

SAN FRANCISCO, November
2S.-(Special to The Advertiser)-
The Chronicle today prints the
following from Washington: -
Secretary of Agriculture Hous-
ton probably will ask congress,
for $4,000 for federal agricultu-
raj experiments in Hawaii to help
the Hawaiian sugar planters, some
of whom fear their industry will
be ruined by the new free sugar
tariff which becomes effective in
three years.
1t is probable that the Hawaiian
government will be asked to pro-
vide 500-acre experimental farm
upon which the department Of
agriculture experts can work ON
the problem of finding crops best
suited to replace sugar cultiva-
ton.

in Louisiana, the sugar belt of
which will be practically ruined
by free sugar. Advices received
here say that the Louisiana plant
ers are preparing to abandon
sugar cultivation after the sea-
son S crop is harvested There is
much criticism among members of
congress concerning the proposed
plan to aid Hawaii and Louisiana
sugar planters.
These congressman say it is a
foolish government policy to ruin
great agricultural interests like
sugar and then ask for money to
experiment to obtain something to
replace the destroyed industries.
