cerned is to say that here IL man
who is ready to explain to boys why it
Is necessary for them to obey certain
rules; here is friend and adviser who
with all his kindness cannot easily be
hoodwinked; here is an administrative
officer who is willing to explain with
calmness what is what and is then pre-
pared to insist that boys must do their
part to maintain the high standards
which have characterized Hampton in
stitute for nearly fifty years.
Captain Washington is indeed big
brother to the 500 Negro and Indian
boys who are being trained at Hamp-
ton for leadership in school teaching,
farming and mec chanical industries. He
Is friendly, but emphatic. in his admin.
lstration of discipline. He is willing to
put the facts squarely to boys, and he
expects them to do their best. Even
when he has to send away an occa-
sional boy he gives the best kind of ad-
vice aud has in this way started many
boys ON higher path.
Whether as a farmer, an oysterman,
harness maker, disciplinarian or a
trusted officer in some organization
Allen Washington has always retained
his native simplicity of speech, his SIN
cerity and his spirit Of racial good will.
AS an officer of the Hampton school
Captain Washington has taken part In
many educational and financial meet
ings which have been held to create
new interest in Negro education. He
has Travelled far and wide, speaking on
behalf of Hampton and the Ideas OF
education for which Hampton stands.
He knows southern conditions.
