MONDAY EVENING,

two years ago on the Princeton field,
it is worthy of special mention.
If you had been at Princeton on
that famous day in the Fall of 1918
when Pumpelly converted a sad, quiet
Yale crowd into bedlam of frenzied
maniacs, you would appreciate Guern-
sey's kick from his own fifty-three-
yard line in the game Saturday. So
long as there are Guernseys and Pum-
pellys at Yale and Poes at Princeton,
university football will continue to be
the great. popular college sport-and
the most uncertain.

THE IABoR1NG POPULATION

CTATISTICS compiled by the De-
y partment of Labor and Industry
show that of the 1,O66, ,4S6 persons
working in 2O,571 industries of the
StateI 1882 are Americans and
276,339 foreigners. In other words,
nearly one-third of the laboring popu-
lation is of foreign birth. This ex-
plains some of the problems of
sociology that confront us and it also
demonstrates the necessity of losing
no opportunity to teach those who
have come to us from Europe and else
where the ideals which we as Ameri-
cans cherish and the advantages of
American government and institutions
as we have developed them.

POSTAL SERVICE DEMOCRATIC

TIME convention of postmasters
which was recently held in
Washington was remarkable for
several things.
In the first place, it showed how
clean. sweep the Democrats have
made in the postal service. At one
of the early meetings of the associa-
tion, Assistant Postmaster General
Roper made a speech, in the course
OF which he paid an enthusiastic
tribute to the character and ability of
the men who are now in the postal
service; and then he called upon all
the hold-over postmasters to stand up.
Out of the several hundred in attend
ance, eleven arose. Mr.. Roper's
speech did not contain anything about
civil service.

Nearly 100000 of gold arrived in
New York last week from ten coun-

South and Central American and West

The stability of American finances
together with the expanding exports
of American products constitute the
magnet that is attracting gold from
all quarters of the world. There have
been imports recently from Japan and
China. as well as from various coun-

BOOKER T. WASHINGTON

II
- dead. and there. is none to take
his place, more's the pity. Booker
L. Washington was not only the great
est man of African descent this coun-
try has ever known, but he was one of
the greatest men of any racesthat the
world has produced.
Born in slavery. it was his lot to top
the highest pinnacle of fame and to
register himself among the greatest
leaders of men that history has known.
Misunderstood, maligned and assailed
even by men of his own race, Wash
ington persevered in the course he laid
down for himself and died with the
knowledge that he had indicated him
self. that he had started the people of
his race on the high road to success.
Like George Washington, Lincoln and
others who stood for great principles,
Booker T. Washington was headstrong,
unshakable in his convictions, insistent
and persistent, yet withal gentle soul,
a teacher and religious guide as well
as leader. with his heart ever dwell
ing upon the lowly condition of his
fellows and how it might be improved
Washington was great religious
figure. but he realized that more than
religion was needed to lift his people
from the slough of. despond in which
they found themselves when he first
began his propaganda; that it was
necessary for the negro to attain eco
nomic independence before he could
expect social equality. This Brought
down upon his head the censure of
those who did not want to wait, who
demanded at once what white men
had labored and sacrificed through
scores of generations to attain.
Learn to be thrifty; learn how to
iii tiiS pletCSS WHlJe lllen MI us well
or better than they; save, own prop
erty; in short, attain economic indie
pendence, and the other things you
seek will come to you"-that, in brief,
was the teaching of Booker II. Wash
ington, and he died realizing that its
soundness had been recognized, that
colored men and women worthy and
fitted for places of trust attain to
them, that color is no bar to the at
tainment of high place in the world,
that "a mans a man for a. that"
If Booker T. Washington had done
no more than this he would not have
lived in vain. But he did more. He
put his teachings into practice. He
convinced hundreds of wealthy men
that he was right, and they gave will
ingly that he might build a college
where his ideas could be worked out
in practical way. No individual will
carry on the work that Washington
started, but in Tuskegee and among it's
teachers and it's graduates his spirit
and his teachings will live in a never
ending, always expanding, influence for
good.
