number of those large heart
ed men and women laboring
among colored people. Each
year finds them less disposed
to make contributions for the
Negroes advancement. A less
sympathetic feeling is being
manifested in various ways IN
the South. particularly in seq
regation ordinances that are
being passed in many places
in the South. Add to this
the adverse effects of the
great influx of Foreigners to
this country annually and one
can get an idea of what the
Negro is now facing. On the
one hand the introduction of
various kinds of machinery
into industrial activities and
on the other hand the intro
duction of foreign labor are
forcing Negroes out of many
of even the menial positions
that they once held for a live
lihood. Hence the race is
earnestly calling for a quality
of man and women which it
has not heretofore produced
in great numbers The ante
bellum type with all due re-
spects to them, without the
discipline that heavy respon-
sibility naturally gives, can
not successfully grapple with
the fierce problems of our
days. The type of men and
women able to thrive only by
(t5e grace and sympathies Of
the stronger race Will not be
able to survive in the future.
The Negroes that present
conditions are calling for and
that the future is going to de-
mand more uncompromising-
ly must be men and women of
great strength. broad vision

A people who can. succeed,
not only when conditions are
favorable, but who can and
will use the very obstacles in
their way for stepping stones
to greater achievements.-

FACING HARD
CONDITIONS.

UUUUl1IUUUs
There has never been a time
within the so years of the
Negroes freedom in America
when race pride and unity of
effort on the part of all mem
bers of the race were in a
greater demand than today.
The race is now going up
against conditions which it
has never faced before. Hav-
ing been introduced into this
country as slaves, the Negro
lived more than 200 years un-
der the white mans protec-
ton. Notwithstanding he was
often cruelty treated he had
no responsibilities whatever
resting upon him. Such clothes
as he was allowed to wear and
such food as he was permitted
to eat; his shelter and doctor S
bill were all provided by his
owner. He had no mental
worry. The only thing he had
to do was to labor hard under
the oversight of the white
man and he was sure of a liy-
ing.
When freedom came to the
colored man, he had nothing

Having been dispossessed of
their slaves. the white people
of the South started out to

Jealous in trying to lift the
Negro into real citizenship,
they placed practically no OBJ

and women from the North

development of the infant
race, came South established
schools and churches and
spent their lives for and
among the colored people. A
little later the South began to
take a deeper interest in their
development. Having such
favorable attitude of both
North and South. made il
possible for the Negro to
make his unparalleled ad-
vancement.
