The man who is forever correcting
others mistakes can't be expected tc
take time for his own.
The Colorado statesman., 1913-05-03

Our own ministers and devoted lay
men, both men and women, must take
up their own work of race uplift, of
rescue, of provision for the needy and
fallen of their own people. So The
Age would encourage all those of the
race everywhere, both men and
women, who are engaged in the work
or assisting it, of reaching the man
and woman of the race in the street,
whether they be on the downward
way or are slowly falling to it. And
we have this assurance amply demon
strated. that if we will begin the good
work, even by organizing to do it and
putting in our pennies, plenty of
white people with plenty of money
will be drawn to it and amply assist
1t; but they require a sign, and the
sign is the evidence that we are or
ganized and doing as best we can
The things needful to be done for our
own.-New York Age.

The negro should not seek aid out
side in accomplishing anything for
his uplift that he can possibly accom-
plish without. We should help our
selves all we possibly can. Much has
been done to help the race to attain
unto Its present position, and much
must still be done. 1t takes more than
hfty years of giving, praying and la
boring to blot out the sins of $50
years of slavery. supplemented by
generations of barbarism. He should
De helped in the most practical and
effective way. He should not be
helped in doing what he can do for
himself. He should not be pitied nor
censured for not working, but should
be given an opportunity to enter any
position for which he is fitted, and go
up or down on his merit. Very often
where money is given it is not the thing
that the negro needs most. He needs
fair play and a chance to earn money
to educate his own children and to
buy his own home. 1t is also observed
in this matter of giving that many of
our most deserving institutions are
entirely overlooked and often those
who are the most reckless in manage
ment, resultless in endeavors, un-
truthful in the presentation of their
cause, not only get hearing. but get
money We do not censure people
who give, because in their hearts they
are exceedingly anxious to help the
race, but we do censure the negroes
who know the truth and will not put
these representatives of fake insti-
tutions out of business.

Negroes were with DeSoto in 1910
