How long will the negro be upon
this step of life's ladder, depending
upon the whites for assistance? The
monotony is unpleasant to the ear in
this progressive age. If they have
been like the grasshopper. instead OF
the ant, consider the punishment as
the reward.
If they had learned self-reliance In
the nineteenth century the negro
problem would have been solved to-
day. If negro men would form stock
companies to purchase lands, erect
buildings and establish stores they
wuold not be dependent upon the
white union for work. Apparently
they have not the necessary con-
fidence.-Exchange.

Creek-Seminole Agricultural college,
founded by President J. C. Leftwich,
under the Christian churches, Is the
most potent factor in developing the
town, and Christian education and ag-
ricultural training among the Indian
and negro youths Of the town, com.
munity and state. Mr. Leftwich found.
ed this college seven years ago, with
out dollar to begin with, but with the
encouragement Of J. H. o. Smith, for
merly minister Of First Christian
church OF Oklahoma City, Okla; he
ventured to build large institution.
1t was believed. among the people of
the town, community and state, that to
build school of such character out in
the forest, and in q new country, was
simply folly and out of the question.
Pluck and tenacity dominated the
spirit OF the young man to try, if but
to fail. To the establishment of all,
Mr.. Leftwich succeeded, in seven
years, In building up a plant valued at
$4,000, 300 students, and faculty of
eight instructors. Eighty Of the stu.
dents are full-blooded Indians. Mr..
Leftwich was succeeding nicely up un-
til the 18th of May, 1912, when his
main building burned, at loss of $10,-
600; five students were burned to
death. This was a great blow to the
president and to the college. Mr.. Left
witch is still determined to build a
great institution, and asks the aid of
his brethren in the effort to do so.
This Is the finest field in America for
the brotherhood to help build and fos-
ter a college for Indians and negroes.
President LeftWich has been travel
ing in the North for II months, appeal
ing to the Christian churches to help
him in his hour Of struggle and trials.
He is attempting to raise $4,000. The
college proper will be located on 40
acres OF land, as an agricultural exper-
iment station. This institution Is To-
Gated in the heart of the red and black
belt of Oklahoma, only 20 miles from
Graz Qndian) Snakes Stamp" and
camp grounds. This institution now
calls on the churches and interested
friends to raise $4,000 at once.-Ex'
