An Englishman-a titled English
man to dinner! Helen was In a
hutter Of excited preparation.
II was after six. She had given
the finishing touches to the table and
sideboard. and was now scrutinizing
the front room AMI library.
She smoothed the corner OF a
rumpled rug, brushed from a chair a
fun of Pussy Purr-Mew's fur, and
stood looking around with an apprais-
ing glance-a critical survey OF her
home before the arrival of an i'm
portant guest.
The floors looked well; she had
had them oiled Saturday Those
library curtains were wretchedly laun-
dered! Anna had ironed them cross
wise and stretched the hens.
With irritable impotence Helen
pulled at one of the curtains in
futile effort to straighten the wavy
edge. Then she stood up on the win
dow-seat and ran her finger nail along
the hem.

Sisters

Julia appreciated with uneasiness
that tomorrow Caryl would have an
entirely free day. What would she
do with it? If Satan finds some mis-
chief for idle hands, here would be
his opportunity. Something must be
suggested to occupy the girls time
why not rest the first part Of the
day tomorrow" Julia proposed, and
then, as the store closes at five on
Saturdays, come there for me and we
will go for short trolley ride Or,
If you don't mind eating at some in
expensive place, I'll take you to supper
somewhere, and we can take our ride
weather promises to be warm and
clear"
She spoke affectionately, even be-
seechingly. linking her arm in her
sisters as they walked That Caryl
did not jerk away from her comforted
her companion. The child was, then,
no longer angry with her.
''Oh, I'll do any old thing you want
to do" assented Caryl. The plan you
mention does not sound wildly excit-
ing to me, but it's better than spend
ing the evening in Halloran Howell. If
nothing pleasanter turns up, I'll go
with you"
Julia tried not to feel chagrined at
the ungracious acceptance of her in
vitation. She also tried not to re-
member how hard she had to work
for her money, nor how many things
she needed more than she needed the
proposed outing. She must wait a
while longer before getting the new
gloves she wanted, and her old hat
was, after all, not so very shabby
And Caryl must be amused
1t was late the next morning when
Caryl awoke, dressed, made herself
a cup of coffee and left the house. The
hours until five o'clock lay like a
blank before her. She felt life to be
flat, stale and improbable in its
present aspect. Yet here was an en-
tire free day and nothing to do with
1t! If she had only known that De
laine was to be away, she would have
told Somerdyke and he might have
suggested another automobile juant,
for it was evident that he was-as she
phrased it to herself-"crazy about
her" Perhaps if she went over to
Delaine's apartment she might meet
Harry" there. Why could she not
pretend that Julia had forgotten to
deliver her employers message and
that she was coming to work as usual?
Of course, it was late in the morn
ing, but Somerdyke would not ask en-
barrassing questions.
A wiser or more sophisticated girl
would have APPRECIATED the folly Of
her plan. 1t was not likely that the
man who filed her thoughts would
be at his friends rooms when that
friend was absent.

eff national efficiency depends, not
only upon national organization and
administration, but also on the surer
foundation of the efficiency and initia-
tive of individual citizenship, then
surely industrial education is a great
national problem, the Importance of
which is as yet only family realized.
Hampton and Tuskegee are today
among the foremost influences in the
entire country for the promotion of in
dustrial education and efficiency. Said
a prominent official of the State of
Alabama to me a few years ago, "I
have no fear that Tuskegee's work
will result in any trouble between the
races at present, but as things are 60

at Tuskegee, and in so far it may be
considered as a slight return from Tus-
kegee to New York for the help which
this city has so generously given
Tuskegee in the past. For any public
school system might well be proud to
offer such physical training and drill
as Tuskegee gives in erect and self
reliant bearing, precision, promptness,
self-eontrol; such practical education
of head and hand alike for efficient
workmanship; such lessons in the dig
nifty of labor and the Importance and
satisfaction of doing a good job in
every line of work, all inspired by that
fine spirit of service and loyalty which
at the Institute they call the Tuskegee
spirit"
The broad ax., 1916-09-09

to say is not in the way of an excuse,
or defense or an apology. Tuskegee
needs no apologies, or excuses from
anybody.
The popular notion of education, as
you all know, fifty years ago, one hun
dred years ago, was type of education
that dealt primarily with books. Peo-
pie thought that what came out of a
book was all right. Your parents and
my parents were ready to believe in
directly perhaps that book knowledge
was the only knowledge that was
worth while. Your father believed it
and my father believed it. There were
reasons why those people believed it.
In the first place, they were pretty i'm
portant people who read and the man
who read was the man who bossed and
who ruled, who controlled, and not only
here in the South, but in the North too,
for 1 remember very well about the
incident in the State of Connecticut
luCh "CIC LlOObCu bCSouoC my
taught Colored people to read. Not
only in the South, but in the North
they did not believe in Negro educa-
tion. Massachusetts, held slaves quite
as well as Alabama. They got rid of
slavery early, as it was not profitable
business. You take a race that has
been brought up to believe that a
thing they could not have, particular
thing, especially when the governing
people had tit was the most natural
thing in the world for the race to want
that thing that people said they should
not have. 1t is true of US today. .
When the war freed the slaves, the
missionaries came down and they nat
urally wanted the Negroes to have the
kind of education they themselves had
experienced, the kind of education
that you and 1 had. 1t is not surpris-
ing, nothing about it that is unusual,
so the early missionaries felt that the
Negroes should have the kind of edu-
cation that they had and they felt they
should have as high type of educa-
tion as they themselves had. do not
like the words "higher education" 1
like the words "broader education.
We will use higher education. They
taught the Negro schools and colleges
what they themselves had learned.
There is no discount, no criticism
whatsoever. No unkind criticism
should attach itself to them. No finer
type, no more beautiful type of Chris
tian people ever lived than came down
into the South after the war and they
trained men and women who have been
the leaders of the Negro race.
With men like Mr.. Emmett j. Scott,
Mr.. Warren Logan, the venerable
and honored Mr.. J. H. Washington, to
help him in the early days, DR.. Booker
T. Washington was able to build up a
plant the value of which is $1,50O,OOO
exclusive of the Endowment Fund. In
1915, there were 1887 students en-
rolled in the regular school; 225 en-
rolled at the Children's House Train
ing School; $50 enrolled during the

ing now it will not be many years be-
fore all of the best mechanics in this
vicinity will be found among the Col
ored men, and the White mechanics
will find it difficult to get work and
may then make trouble between the
races" Naturally L suggested that
White boys and girls should have the
same training as is given at Tuskegee,
and this must inevitably be the final
result of Tuskegee's example and in
fluenee.''
The Thirty fifth Session of the Tus-
kegee Institute opens on September
18th, 1916 and from present indica-
tions, the first days enrolment will be
the largest in the history of the insti-

How to Prepare for

A year ago this time Tuskegee In
stitute was preparing for the opening
of the fall school term. Letters were
coming in from various parts of the
south and southwest asking that ad
mission to the school be extended tc
this or that earnest boy and girl. Al
that time DR.. Washington was with us
and we had no thought that his useful
life was so near its end.
Today, we are going through the
same preparatory activities and ar.
rangements are being made to accomo
date the hundreds of boys and girls
who have applied for admission
Buildings are being overhauled, dormi,
tories cleaned and the Office of the
Registrar is the scene of hustle and
spirited activity. Instead of DR.. Wash,
ington, we have with us to guide the
destinies of this great work, another
great American and useful citizen
whose sympathies are broad enough to
include the problems of all races and
whose experiences will stand him in
great stead in helping Tuskegee In,
stitute to continue its work as a con.
tributing factor in the upbuilding of
our country.
DR.. R. R. Motion, who succeeds DR..
Washington as the Principal of Tus.
kegee comes to the work with a broad
and intimate knowledge of the many
sided problem which confronts him,
His views on the great question of
Negro education were brought forward
very emphatically in the following ex,
tract from an address which he de-
Hvered before the Summer School
teachers at Tuskegee Institute this
past July, DR.. Motion said:
"I am going to say one or two
things this morning about the Tuske-
gee school, about the type of education
here at Tuskegee, the type of educa-
tion which DR.. Washington lived for
and died for and which this school
stands for, and 1 am not doing this be-
cause it is necessary to defend
Tuskegee. 1t is not necessary.
81 am not defending; L am not apol-
ogizing in any sense for anything that
Tuskegee has done or has failed to do.
L am not offering any apologies for
DIR. Washington-anythin that he did
or did not do. His life is sufficient, his
life is complete and his work was
rounded out, but 1 am doing this be-
cause perhaps some of you have raised
questions and the questions have been
raised with you:
"Why Booker Washington during
his lifetime, and Tuskegee Institute al
ways advocated a certain type of edu-
cation for Colored people?"
"Why Hampton and General Arm
strong should have emphasized to the
Negro race this particular type of edu'
cationF'' They are questions asked
not only by you, but by hundreds
of other people.
