Bryant is well and favorably known
to the medical profession among the
leaders In both races.
Although comparatively young in
years. he is ripe in that kind Of med
ical experience and skill which counts
for so much in his work. The heights
to which he has already attained in
his profession and the large place
which he has made for himself among
the public would be considered by
some fitting climax with which to
close n career of great usefulness. He
is untiriug in his efforts to excel in his
chosen line: hence he makes good use
of every opportunity for study and
contact hy which he may gain more
knowledge and experience.

For forty years Mr.. Ogden had been
a trustee of Hampton institute and for
twenty years the president Of its trus-
tees. The record Of Mr.. Ogden's life
work makes it clear that Hampton in
stitute is the most fitting place for
permanent memorial. There is urgent
need there for Il large auditorium. and
already few of his friends have sub
scribed one-third Of the $1OO, 900 neces
sary for the erection Of such a build
ing. This would be particularly suit

SUCCESS OF DR.. H. C. BRYANT.
Fine Record Of a Northwestern Uni
versity Graduate at Birmingham, Ala.


Birmingham, Ala.-Uhe large number
of well qualified men and women Of
our race in the south who have made
and are making their mark in the va
rious professions, religious work and
in business has often been the subject
Of comment in other sections of the
country. Not only have these persons
risen to prominence in their own local
sphere, but their influence in many in
stances is national. Be it said also
to their credit that they come from
some of the best institutions OF learn
ing in both the south and the north.
The fact that SO many Of them have
settled in the south to work out their
destiny among our people, where in
many instances they may the better
serve the race, is 4 high compliment
to their education and desire for racial
advancement. The same may be said
of hundreds of the same class in the
north. but not to such high degree
when the matter of remuneration for
service is taken into consideration. In
both the south and the north the field
for religious and educational develop
ment is rich in opportunities.

his junior year and was permitted to
practice in Tennessee
1t was in the spring of 1910 that he
graduated from the Meharry Medical
college with high honors and decided
to locate in Knoxville. Then he fitted
up first class office. He was without
the real cash, but had ambition and
pluck, lacked by industry, honesty and
