Charleston, w. Va. = At the thirty
third annual convention Of the West
Virginia Sunday School association,
held in this city In May, the teachers
and students of the West Virginia Col
legiate institute were present In a
body. This action was taken by the
school upon the invitation of Arthur
T. Arnold, the executive secretary Of
the association He had invited the
school to participate in the general
program of the meetings by singing
folk songs and the school band march
ing and playing in both the children's
parade and the mems parade.
Special seats were reserved for the
teachers and students In the First
Methodist Episcopal church. where the

morning session was held. When they
had finished their numbers on the pro-
gram and the presiding officer attempt
ed to go on with the business of the as
sociation, there was one continuous
ovation ON the part Of the audience
so much so that the presiding officer
was compelled to ask the students to
sing one more selection.
The following editorial which ap-
peared in the Charleston Daily Mail.
reflects the general opinion of those
who were present concerning the part
taken by the students:
"One of the most distinctive features
of the state Sunday school convention
now In session in the capital which the
delegates will carry away with them
will be the musical part, especially the
part taken by the young men and
young women Of the West Virginia
Collegiate institute.
"This delegation from the foremost
colored school for higher education
among the colored people Of West Vir-
ginia came up In body and occupied
special seats provided for them at the
First Methodist Episcopal church and
at the armory. Music is one of the ac-
complishments of the colored race.
The colored people take to music as
duck takes to water, and 1t Is music
too. Strong and rich, sweet and soft,
the range is wide enough to take In
every requirement and to satisfy every
demand Of the ear attuned to melody
And not only to the visitors from
all parts of the state was this achieve
ment In harmony revelation. Those
at home were also on the list Of the
surprised and joined heartily In the ap-
plause and commendation which were
given the institute delegation earnestly
and without stint Some singers are
those students of the West Virginia
Collegiate institute, and the state,
which supports the school, has right
to be proud of the showing they made"
President Byrd Prillerman is highly
gratified at the uniform courtesy with
which the students were treated
throughout the entire days proceed
ings. The officers of the association
and the ushers treated not only the
school. but all other visiting members
of our race at the sessions with abso-
lutte fairness. The occasion really
marks an epoch in the history Of reli-
gious gatherings in the south.
Mrs. Elizabeth M. Mitchell. the COM
petent music teacher Of the West Vir-
ginia Collegiate institute, deserves
much credit for the efficient manner In
which the students had been trained
for the occasion.
Mr.. Arthur Thomas Arnold, whose
cut is shown in this article. is the gen.
eral secretary of the West Virginia
Sunday School association He Is q
young man OF high character and
standing. who believes In liberty and
justice for all the citizens of the state
according to law and not according to
race or color. Mr. Arnold recognizes
the struggles of our race to rise in edu-
cation. business and Christian charac-
ter. and he may be depended upon at
all times TO do the square thing by
them whenever he comes In contact
with them along any line. The race
will always stand by such men as Ar.

OUR SUCCESS IN MUSIC.
Most Distinctive In America
Says Benjamin 6rawisy.


Benjamin Brawley In q recent
article In the Southern Work
man has the follow 6 to say of
the possibilities OF the race for
advancement In the arts and In
music.
With reference to the Negro
two things are observable. One
Is that any distinction so far
won by a member Of the race in
America has been almost always
In some one Of the arts, and the
other is that any influence SO far
exerted by the Negro on Ameri
can civilization has been prima-
rily in the field of aesthetics. But
there is something deeper than
the sensuousness Of beauty that
makes for the possibilities of the
Negro In the realm Of the arts.
and that Is the soul Of the race
The wall of the old melodies
and the plaintiye quality that is
ever present In the Negro voice
are brit the reflection of the back
ground of tragedy. No race can
rise to the greatest heights Of
art until 1t has yearned and suf-
fered. The Russians are a case
In point Such has been their
background in oppression and
striving that their literature and
art today are marked by an un-
mistakable note of power. The
same future beckons to the Amer
lean Negro.
The Negro has great gifts OF
voice and ear and soul, but so
far much of his talent has not
scared above the vaudeville
stage. This is due most largely,
Of course, to economic instability.
1t is the call Of patriotism. how
ever, that America should realize
that the Negro has peculiar gifts
which need all possible cultiva-
ton and which viii one day add
to the glory of the country. Al
ready his music Is recognized as
the most distinctive that the
United States has yet produced
