Capt. James w. English and Mr..
Samuel M. Inman have given gener-

at Atlanta, Ca, of school, the pur-
pose Of which is to train the willing
Negroes Of the city to meet the pres
ent demand for competent labor along
the lines for which there is the most
demand. ~
The school, II developed on the
plans described, will mark the first
practical step to solve the seo-called
servant problem In Atlanta and will
prove a factor of usefulness to both
races. "a 5@t sep
The plan Is to train the students to
meet the demands of the life which
surrounds them. Every feature OF the
curriculum will relate to commu-
nifty activity and chance will be
given the man or woman in service
who may not have had the right kind
or any training.
In this latter department Of the
school the housekeepers Of Atlanta
are urged to cooperate. 1t is asked
that the servant who may wish to bet
ter train himself or herself for any
branch of domestic service be allowed
one hour q day, three times week,
for lessons in any of the branches of
household service. s ,.
The school is the earnest effort Of
Richard D. Stinson, who Is a Negro
educator of excellent training and one
who has made close study of the
conditions Of his race as they are
today.

with fairly good feet will not need to

There is power In numbers unified
II directed to purpose; and great
achievements may be wrought through
its agency, II confidence Is secured.
It is mighty defense against at
tack, and protection to individuals
as well as support to bodies. 1t would
be better for the situation of every
man, in his material affairs, II he
should realize It's importance, and
strive to improve his condition by
practice. 1t has ever been somewhat
strange, that the negro fails, as a
race, to note the strides Of the 9TH
ers of mankind In pushing forward the
, movements Of the world through the
force of combination. Fear, begotten
of suspicion has ever kept him in the
rear ground Of civilization because his
aspirations are crippled, thereby.
Nothing Is gained without venture;
and he who hesitates to take the first
ST. will never be able to walk. That
which h., been accomplished by one
may likewise reward the labors of the
other; but a lack of endeavor will al
ways retard the completion of any de-
sign. Feeble, efforts are, the results
of half-hearted attachment, which, usu-
ally, swerves aside when actual serv.
ice is demanded. Ignorance mistrusts
intelligence, because it has SO often
fallen victim to its wiles; and the
former is divided through Jealousy.
There are, therefore some reasonable
causes for the dissensions which tend
to weaken the ties of union; but, in
nature, there exists remedy Tor each
ill. Human struggles cannot be borne
in severalties; and whenever 1t is
undertaken the end, thereof, is de-
structive. OF course, no man fore
sees his destiny; nor can he deter.
mine what his end will be; yet, to aim
high to dare and do, will often bring
fruits to chivalry. That general who
fails to prepare because ignorant of
the outcome of the struggle, will ever
be the loser; nor will he be rewarded
for wisdom because he refuses to
make an attempt. Defeats are not al
ways shameful; for out of them very
often great victories are born. The
stigma arises when once defeated he
fails to come again.

negroes of Mound Bayou are making
segregation pay them. They don't
care whether white folks swing on
their front gate or not; indeed, they
prefer to swing on their own front
gate, as it pays them better; that Is
to say, 1t pays them better to attend
to their affairs than to have white
