It should be the duty of all, especially
of Negro musicians, to do everything
possible to bring the songs to their
proper and full appreciation. Negro
music has suffered sufficiently already
through rag-time and popular min
strelsy, and any further attempt to
keep Negro music on this low level
should be met with the indignant pro-
tests of all serious-minded people"
1t is imperative, in my opinion, for
people who are sincerely interested in
the Negro and his one unmistakable
contribution to American civilization,
to use every opportunity to dignity
the music of this people, not merely
by encouraging the Negro to sing his
folk songs in their truly beautiful
primitive form, but also by encourag-
ing him to show their possibilities for
use as themes for anthems, oratorios.
and even operas. This will do more
than anything lse to dignity thin in
the estimation of ducated Negroes.

NEGRO FOLK MUSIC.

1t took three years of training at
Hampton Institute to bring me to the
point of being willing to sing Negro
songs in the presence of white people.
White minstrels with black faces have
done more than any other single
agency to lower the tone of Negro
music and cause the Negro to despise
his wi songs.
Mr.. r. Nathaniel Dett, director of
vocal music at Hampton, says:
"Thre is no more lamentable ten
dency among certain people than the
disposition either to despise Negro
folk songs altogether or else use them
as means of race caricature; neither
is there any practice that should be
more condemned. America has no
more valuable heirloom, from a histor-
ical, traditional, or musical standpoint,
than these folk songs. For this reason

LEISURE HOUR REFLECTIONS,
FROM A QUIET CORNER.
CHAPTER IL.
DENNIS s. THOMPSON

There is always a pleasure to the
man or woman who has a good thing,
in passing 1t on to the other person;
but, on the other hand, if you should
happen to discover a little weakness
in a friend, there is surely nothing
gained by opening the eyes of others
to the same flaw.
If you happen to hear a story which
is little to the credit of some one else,
be careful how you pass 1t on. Many
a persons life has been spoiled be-
cause some error of the past, long be-
forefore repented of, long before
atoned for, as far as such things can
eve be made right, came to the know
ledge of some one who lacked the
magnanimity to keep it to themselves.
Perhaps they had no bad motive in
passing it on, but may have told it
al a little interesting news,
but they passed it on just the same.
This was out of order.
There are, however, h%ypocrites in
the world who need to be exposed for
the public good, but the person who
Is endeavoring to do the right and
fair thing, let us try to think as well
of them as we can If we are better
informed, and can see different from
the other fellow, let us not syndicate
the weakness of others, but keep such
to ourselves.

, A straight line is the shortest dis
lance between two points. In geo
metry, no one questions such an as
sertion. In life, a great many people
seem to have the idea that they can
reach their goal more quickly by go
ing out of their way for every OBJ
stacle. Those who encounter some
thing hard and distasteful in the occu-
patton they have chosen, sometimes
jump to the conclusion that they have
made a mistake in their choice, and
begin to look for work that will lack
difficulties.
The person who follows such a
winding road to success, is pretty sure
to die before they reach their goal.
A straight line is the shortest dis
lance between two points. Fix your
eye on the goal you want to reach, and
make for it. Hew your way through
the obstacles that present themselves,
but do not turn out for them.
The shortest distance to success is
the most direct route.
The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1915-06-19

The business of life is a great
thing. The business of life is making
character. People may acquire great
wealth, but if in the process their
moral nature has gotten out of keller,
they have failed. They may gain a
reputation for some great achieve
ment, but if they have not at the same
time achieved a higher manhood for
themselves, they are to be pitied
rather than congratulated. They
may enjoy existence to the utmost,
drinking their fill of pleasure, but if
their sympathies are gradually afro
plying, if they are increasingly indif-
ferent to the obligations of helpful
ness, they are preparing for the SUI
preme failure.
Make no mistake about it; the Oc-
cupation by which you earn your liv-
ing, is merely incidental. Your bust
ness in the world is Misunderstanding.
Because you carry your dinner in
a paper or a tin box, do not feel that
you are not as good as the man who
dimes at the expensive restaurant.
Because you buy your clothes ready
made, do not allow yourself to feel
inferior to your friend who patronizes
the best tailor in the city. Rate your
own manhood too high to think that
your standing can be determined by
these exterior things.
