SHERWOOD RETURNS FROM
CAMP

Mr.. Jose H. Sherwood, of st. Paul,
one of the students at the Reserve
Officers Training camp at FIT. Des
Moines, has returned home. He has
received an honorable discharge and
is suffering from the total loss of the
sight of his left eye. During July his
eye was found useless and he was
placed under the care of DR.. Pearson,
an eye specialist, however, Mr.. .Sher-
wood continued his studies, hoping to
regain his sight. He remained at the
camp after the War Department de-
cided to continue the course to Oct.
Is, but after several days in the post
hospital he was discharged. He is
now under the care of specialists, who
claim his chances are fair for recov-
cry. Although he was not able to re-
ceive a commission and is greatly dis
appointed, he is fortunate in being
reinstated in the postoffice, where he
was an efficient employee. Postmaster
Otto N. Raths has allowed him a vaca-
ton and will give him his former
position. Mr.. Raths is Spanish War
veteran and has given the negroes in
his Office a square deal at all times.
"Joe" regrets that he could not qualify
for active service and has the SYM
pathy of host of friends, who had
confidence in his ability. He speaks in
praise for the camp and says that the
training was beneficial for all who
attended, and should he overcome his
physical disability he is ready to do
his part for his race and his country
in this crisis.

And meekly arrayed in thy modest bro-
I drink to thy health. Ethiopian maid.
Mid noontide and moontide. whatever thy
themes,
Thy vision creeps in the entertainments Of
dreams;
The pipings of, skylark and thrills of tho
Are mixed in the midst of the melody
Thy laughter rings out in the vine scented
glade,
As drink to thy health, Ethiopian maid.
I dance at the feast Of the gay daffodils,
drink from the fount Of lifes full ffow-
ing rills 4
The altar of roses, the nectar Of wine
But turn from them all for the love that
is thine
The essence Of life in thy beauty displayed,
In thy radiance Of soul, Ethiopian maid.
When sun of the tropics turns westward
and dies
The magic still fingers in light Of thine
eyes;
I mingle my goblet with oil Of the palm
Where spices hang over and summer
smiles warm, .
And there mid the magic Of forest and
shade -
I drink thy sweet health, Ethiopian maid.

DR.. SHEPARD GETS RESULTS.
Letter Of North Carolina Governor
Evokes Strong News Editorial.

Letter Of North Carolina Governor
Evokes Strong News Editorial.
The Greensboro IN. CO. Daily News
recently carried the following editorial
on Governor Bickett's letter to DR..
James E. Shepard in answer to the
latter's plea against the lynching of col
ored people, with especial reference to
the Memphis and East st. Louis hor-
rors.
Governor Bickett's letter to DIR. James
e. Shepard, president of the National
Training school at Durham, expresses
well the North Carolina attitude to-
ward the Negro man.
President Shepard asked seventeen
governors to issue appeals to the people
Of their states protesting against the
lynching Of helpless race. The Negro
educator desires to see country in
which his own people may live and
hope" The intimation that living and
hoping become increasingly difficult in
the light Of "lynchings north and south"
gives the governor his opportunity to
invite the Negro back home.
Various assignments of causes behind
the negro exodus to the north have
been given, but DR.. Shepard has struck
upon one that bears the appearance of
epigrammatic fOrce-"the right to live
and hope" Better wages naturally
have contributed to condition that
has greatly disturbed the south. Sur.
face indications Of lesser racial feeling
must have moved many to seek the
north. The right to live and hope po-
litically has done deal to encourage
the move northward.
Nevertheless the northern and west.
ern press is not so sure that the treat
ment Of the black man has justified so
radical an expedient. The Chicago
Tribune in series of singing. edito-
rails the last several days has stun
bled upon fundamental truth. The
south will lynch Negro. the Tribune
says, but the south never lynches "the
Niger" The south will break out oc-
casionally into a hideous orgy Of tor
ture and mutilation against one man,
but never against his whole family or
his community. 1t is not very fat
tering picture Of the vaunted liberality
Of the north and west that the Tribune
draws.
Whatever advantages the colored
man may feel other sections offer him.
it Is undeniably true that the south
gives him his highest right to live If
by that is meant the provision Of the
physical means Of creating liveh-
hood. And without such right it Is
foolish to talk of hope. In Durham
the great democracy Of work finds its
highest expression. There is wealthy
colored man. ex-slave. named Fitzger.
aid. Nobody pretends that anybody
makes brick equal to Fitzgerald's,
and Fitzgerald has grown rich because
he is an artist in his business. And
nobody ever drew the color line on one
of Fitzgerald's bricks.

MANNiNG'S VIEWS ON THE
EXODUS FROM THE SOUTH
Southern White Man Says Denial Of
Justice 10 Responsible.

The colored people are leaving the
south by the thousand, more want to
leave, and more are going to leave, says
the Hon. Joseph G. Manning, former
member Of the Alabama legislature, in
q letter to the New York Sun. 1t Is
more than a wish to better their eco
nomic condition that is causing this
departure Of Negroes from the south.
It is more a sort Of quiet revolution
against the oppression and repression
to which sG.thern Negroes have been
subjected for many years.
The spirit Of revolution has manifest
ed itself in simply leaving the south.
OF course the demand for labor In the
north opened the door Of opportunity,
but the restiveness of the Negro in the
far southern states was such that the
point was reached where, for better or
for worse, the desire to get away had
taken strong hold.
The Acknowledgement laws more
than anything else have created the
part of the southern colorsd people
Their relegation to the status of sub.
ject citizen, the denial to him of civic
Justice, has been too bitter pill to
swallow in mere submission. The un-
even chance in litigation in the courts.
the oppression of the illiterate and
helpless Negro by and through the
processes in the petty courts-these
and other minor prosecutions play a
part in creating the determined move
ment to get out Of the south and go
where there is more Of square deal
for the average man.
Lynching has something to do with
adding to the feeling that has brought
about this exodus; but, strange as 1t
may seem, the terror of lynching does
not 60 SO far In deeply moving the
southern Negro as does the loss of his
rights as citizen.
A Negro minister who was recently
In Georgia, Florida, Alabama and 9th
er southern states is authority for the
statement that leading Negro ministers
and many leading Negroes indorse the
movement to get away from the south,
advising their congregations that 1t
means protection under the law, the
right Of citizenship, better educational
advantages for their children and free.
dom from the increasing wrongs of
the south.
This subject Of the coming north of
southern Negroes was discussed at
weekly meeting of Baptist minister's
in New York city, anu as leading
minister who had been south told of
tho wholesale departure Of southern
Negroes for the north, crying out to
''let them come" there was a chorus
OF "Amen."
These people coming up from the
south to the states Of the north and
west will soon be voters, and their
leaders in this section are keeping this
in mind. Never before has there been
such a united movement on the part
of the minister's Of the north among
the colored people In the matter Of urg.
inC Negro voters to qualify for voting.
"YOu want to help those left down
there in the south by voting up here"
Is the way the ministers in the north
are putting their appeals.
