Y. N. c. A. Activities

The second meeting of the re-
organized Y. NJ. G. A. was held on
last Monday evening. The time
was devoted entirely to the work
of completing the organization,
which was inaugurated the week
previous.
Rev. +. II. Gebert was present,
and as he had interviewed the see
rotary Of the Seattle Y. NJ. c. A.
on the same day, he was well in
formed as to the latter's stand in
the matter of "Y" for Vashon.
He thought the best plan would
be to secure man from the ma
tional association to take the field
here and work up a strong organ
ization, and in order that the ma
tional association have better
understanding of the situation
and with the desire to get the con
sent of that body to send man
who can devote his entire time to
the work Oil the Islands. Rev. Geb-
ert S aid was solicited and he con
scented to attend the Washington
State Convention at Yakima as a
delegate. He will leave so as to
be present on April 18th, and will
remain two DAYS.
Should Rev. Gebert be success
full in getting a Y. NJ. C. A. field
secretary for Vashon and Maury
Islands, it will undoubtedly mean

BRUCE EXONERATED BY
PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD
OF WASHINGTON, D. c.
(By Associated Negro Press)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. g.
The board of education reaffirmed its
confidence in Roscoe C. Bruce, as
sistant superintendent in charge of
Colored schools, after a public read
ing of two reports, one praising the
Colored superintendent, the other
characterizing him as unfit for his
position.
The meeting was one of the longest
the board has held in many months,
and when it ended, the Bruce case
became a closed incident so far as
the school board is concerned. The
Colored Parents League, however,
again announced it's intention to take
the fight on Bruce to Congress.
DR.. Henry B. Learned, chairman
of the committee which Investigated
Bruce's fitness for office, read the
majority report signed ty himself
and Mrs. Coralie F. Cook. In it
he reviewed briefly the charges that
were made against the Colored su-
perintendent, and told, how in the
opinion of the majority of the CON-
mittae, these charges were disap-
proved. A large part of the report
was taken up with a statement of
Mr.. Bruce's educational and admin
istrative qualifications for the office
he holds.
Fountain Peyton, Colored, the dis
|senting member of the committee.
read a minority report, in which he
attempted to prove that Mr.. Bruce
is not qualified for the office he
holds.
After hearing both reports, the
board adopted the following resolu-
tion, presented by Mrs. Susie Root
Rhodes:
THE majority report of the special
committee on the Bruce case is is
sued with the hearty approval of the
board of education of the District of
Columbia. We believe that the care
shown by said committee and the
scundness of its conclusions will be
apparent to every reasonable citizen
OF Washington. After mature delib-
Grafton we find ourselves in no doubt
concerning the upright character of
the assistant superintendent of Col
ored schools. Respecting his educa-
ton and administrative fitness for
the position he had held for twelve
years-we are reassured and do here
ty announce our determination to do
all that is possible to give scope to
his plans as director of the CoIored
schools and to protect his good
name"

Accumulated Wealth
of Colored Americans
More Than Billion
(By Associated Negro Press)

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 5.-"Ne-
groes, like members of other ad-
vancing races, are learning to do
more and more things well. True,
vocational training for them, there
fore, must be more varied and more
thorough than 1t has been," declared
Prof. James f. Gregg, principal of
Hampton Institute. before the Ma
tional Urban League for Social Serv-
ice Among Negroes, in an address
on Trimming for More Skilled Work"
Dr. Gregg said:
Education for life 10 not static
term Its meaning is constantly
changing as tie conditions of life
change. In 1866 Negroes were con-
Quoting 21OO business enterprises.
Today they are conducting $4,000.
In 1866 the accumulated wealth of
American Negroes was 100000, ,0O0
Today it is $111O,0OO,OOO. Such an
economic evolution should be and,
indeed, must be reflected in their oc-
cupations, and consequently in the
kind of vocational instructions which
is needed by them.
'In emphasizing vocational training
am not forgetting or belittling the
Importance of cultural training. Ev-
cry mechanic deserves and needs
enough of cultural training to enable
him to use his leisure time profitably
and happily. The literary and more
theoretical subjects must have atten-
tion. There should be no question
OF higher or lower studies. The only
question should be, what does this
or that student deserve and require
to develop him most fully in capabil-
ity and serviceableness?

South Likes Old Time
Negro Dialect; Does
Not Want It Discarded
(By Associated Negro Press)

GREENSBORO, N. c., Nov. s.
There is a Southern editor who en-
deavors to give serious concern to
the part played by the Negro in
the life of this section. The follow
ing expression from the Greensboro
News, concerning the dialect of the
Negro, is of unquestioned interest
and particularly that part which says,
"And back of it all is the shadow of
tragedy that he has brought with
him, which sooner or later some art
ist. whether painter, musician, drama
tist, poet, or novelist, will use for a
creation of genius that will sweep
the world" Read it all
1--WE sincerely hope" remarks the
Raleigh Biblical Recorder, that the
Negro dialect will not perish from
the earth There is peculiar charm
about it that appeals to every South
erner, especially to those who knew
the old-time plantation Negro"
True. But the old-time plantation
Negro has disappeared. How should
his speech be preserved? The grand
son of Uncle Remus talks as differ
ent a language-not the English Of
the universities, to be sure, Tut not
less far from that than from the
speech that Harris set down. BY its
very nature, any dialect must change
with the changing fortunes of the
people who speak it; and no other
race has ever been subjected within
so years to as sudden and tremen-
dous a change in status as the Amer
lean Negro. His speech must neces-
sarily undergo profound notifications
and what was true dialect twenty
years ago sounds strangely in the
ears of those who know the Negro
of today.

GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA
ADDRESSED GATHERING
OF COLORED CITIZENS
(By Associated NEGRO Press

(By- Associated Negro Press)
ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 5.-Governor
Hugh M. Dorsey addressed largely
attended meeting on the gospel of
thrift at the First Congregational
church, Colored. There were repre-
sentatives from the Colored schools
and business organizations, from all
over the city. 1.-THE singing was an
attractive feature of the evening.
The governor complimented the
Colored race on its progress in mate
rial things and referred to their
business organizations. He, however,
urged upon his hearers greater thrift.
He pointed out that thrift meant
more than economy in money mat
ters; it meant economy of time and
energy. The cultivation of thrift
meant the development of character.
DIR. H. H. Proctor presided and
urged upon the audience the cultiva-
tion of thrift as racial asset in the
present crisis.
