sity In March, brought together from
all parts Of the country several hun.
dred men and women who are work
ing intelligently and IN Christian
spirit to promote racial good will and
national prosperity. Some Of the big
constructive ideas Of the conference
are:
Christian character. intelligence, CO.
operation, respect for womanhood
thrift-these are the foundation stones
upon which all progress is built. To
the degree that individuals and groups
secure these precious possessions there
come national prosperity and racial
good will.
The sociological conference serves as
an excellent and effective clearing

the comparison Of methods which deal
with vital problems such as health,
education, enforcement Of law and or
der. Industrial opportunity. home max
ing. community Improvement and

thus opsn TO them q door Of opportu-
nifty, Madam Douglass left St. Louis
for this city. where she established the
Vira college. Success attended her Of.
forts. and soon the school was crowded
with young women eager to learn q
trade. Il did not take the fame Of this
institution long to spread. and be II
said to tho credit Of this young woman
that she has been the instrument
through which many young women
have been able to make an independ-
ent living.
Recently In the East Arkansas confor-
ence Madam Douglass made strong
appeal for a moro enlightened woman
hood. She pointed out the fact that
many young people take the wrong
step because they lack proper instruc.
ton. She told the ministers that It was
not enough to preach the young people
into the church and then leave them.
Human minds and souls" she said,
must be fed Just like the body. You
must feed them on good. substantial
food. Il II an awful thing to neglect
tho mind and soul"
Madam Douglass takes advantage Of
every opportunity to help the young Of
the race. She pleads for better home
life, for more real constructive work In
the school and church and urges the
young people to get education, get bank
accounts, get homes and then teach
their children how to get real results
from their efforts.
Madam Douglass is widely known In
the south and west. In which sections
Of the country she has done her best
work. Her aim is to assist az far a.
possible in the training Of young wo-
men for business careers. As a speaker
and lecturer she is well equipped.
In her illustrated lectures are shown
many men and women Of the race who
have risen to prominence In the busi-
ness world by hard work. In this city
