we would like to have than to prop
ef1y preparing ourselves to earn the
means whereby we may get 1t. We
think far more of consuming than pro-
ducing. We must change our plan of
action, our point of view, and try
to become a race of producers as well
as consumers. To do this, then, along
with the development of the mind
must go the training of the hand.
"The college-bred man must often
sit and wait for something to turn
up, some opening to be made, some
position to be offered him. The man
with trade does not wait for some
thing to turn up but turns up some
thing himself, and that, too, quickly.
He is the most Independent being
upon the face of the globe. He waits
for no man, he cringes to no man, and
even dictates to men of wealth and
power. Like. the village blacksmith.
he looks the whole world in the face,
for he owes not any man North,
south, east or west, he Is able to stand
In his own shoes and curry favor with
nobody.
Realizing all this, how important.
then. is it that the principles of prac-
tical training for which this institute
stands should be appreciated and
maintained"

Ante-bellum days were recalled at
the "Mammies' Dinner given to the
"Ole Massahs" by the Ex-Slaves' asso-
citation at Birmingham, Alabama. Five
hundred uncles and aunties, all ex-
slaves, were present. i.
Some time ago the ex-slaves of Bir-
mingham formed an association with
$50 members. The organization will
be extended over the south. An ex-
slaves home will be established near
Birmingham. Plans are already un-
der way for this institution, which
will be unique in many respects. The
home will be equipped with the old
time loom, spinning wheel and car
ders. Plots, ovens and the ash-cake
will take the place of modern cooking
utensils and bakers bread.
Only Negroes born before 1860 are
eligible to membership in the Ex-
Slaves association. These only were
present the "Mammies' Dinner"
From all parts of the country the
old men and women came to the
"mammies' dinner. Among the guests
were number of former slave own
ers, and they Joined heartily in the
spirit of the function. The dinner was
cooked in the same way as before the
war. Barbecued meats, ash cakes,
flapjacks, buttermilk, fried chicken
and other ante-bellum dishes formed
the menu.
Speeches were made by former slave
owners and responded to by former
slaves.
An old-time camp meeting service
was held. Aged, bent and silver
haired ex-slave preachers shouted and
exhorted the listeners to keep away
from the wiles of the devil or be
doomed to eternal fire and birthstone,
and old-time scenes were reproduced
in detail.
Old masters and their slaves were
reunited after many years Of separa-
ton. Some. embraced In the Joy of
meeting again. An incident of the day
was the meeting of Marshall Light,
aged seventy-one, and Alfred Avery,
aged seventy, ex-slaves, who, though
cousins and living in Birmingham
more than thirty years, had never
met. The aged Negroes sang and
danced in celebration of the event.
Andrew Beard, who was born a
slave on an Alabama plantation, has
