aHuQoSO, VuN., HAhJ IL, AoAf
Mr.. Editor.
Dear Sir:
note with much qualification in the
issue of your paper of May the 9Th the
action of the School Board, through the
efforts of Mr.. Virgil Lawrence, that
the County Commissioners, have been
requested to give to them the necessary
amount of money to keep the Colored
Schools open for a.term of nine months.
Realizing, as I do. the Importance of
such step for the intellectual advance
ment of my race, 1 desire to record my
highest appreciation to the honorable
gentlemen of the School Board, also
the County Commissioners, and beg of
them jointly that they leave no stone
returned to give us better schools and
longer terms. l want to say that you
gentlemen, can do yourselves great
honor that will 60 down into the history
of this great State, by throwing the
door of opportunity open wider for the
boy and girl of my race.
sirs, Southern Maryland, will yet be-
come the garden spot of this great
State, if the negro youths are properly
trained to become useful citizens. To
do this, will call for money and men
with the courage of their convictions.
You have both to spare. Give Iiberaly
to our advancement, and we will not
only help you to make this great
State, but the greatest Nation under
the canopy of the globe. AS conclude,
let me say this, that every dollar the
county spends for the advancement of
my race, will yield returns four fold
in the future in producing type of
citizens who will measure up to any
standard that you may set for them.
All that I ask is fair and unhampered
chance for our boys and girls, and they
will make good.
l am not ungrateful for what has
already been done for us, but am asking
Tor more that we may be further bene-
tied.
Mr.. Editor if you can find space in
your paper for these humble words l
will greatly appreciate it.
am very Respectfully Yours,
ROBERT F COATES,
Pastor of the Woodville Charge
Methodist Episcopal Church.

Washington, June 24.-The story
Of how President Wilson, golfng on
a local green, sent a ball whizzing
near another golfers head ana how
the other fellow roundly "cussed"
the President Of the United States
and then, in confusion and chagrin,
made profuse apologies, had a sequel
to-day when President Wilson and
the other golfer exchanged letters,
one an abject apology and the other
an Acknowledgement, coupled with a
firm declaration from the President
that he vas within his rights under
the rules Of the game.
Managers of the club were expect
ing to take some action against the
"cussing' member when he wrote his
apology. Local golf clubs compete
keenly for the Presidents game on
their greens. He probably will not
visit one Of them again.
