teaching this art that is so essential
for which there is such great de-
mand in every department of life,
and of business. Shorthand type
writing has been given those who
attend this institute, and list of
some distinguished persons have COM
pleted his courses. along them may
be mentioned, Miss Gordan, our cap
able city sick nurse, Mrs. w. B.
West, Miss Lille A. Shaw, Mrs. An
ME Mae-Cates Turner, Mrs. Georgia
White-Bush, Mrs. Mary Grain Waller,
and Miss Edna Il. Ezell and others,
among whom are Prof. T. d. Mar
shall and L. H. Lightner, Supreme
Scribe OF American Woodmen.
Shorthand should have a place in
our curriculum for Negro children
in our high school and which could
be secured for the asking and then
why not ask. Some years ago a COM
mittee waited on Gov. Campbell, and
he told them the reason that the
Colored people did receive more was
because they ask for less, what a
statement for us who need more and
seem to be afraid to ask for it. We
have found in our observation that
the white man stands ready to grant
our requests if we would but have
the courage to ask. The Negro needs
all he can get, he needs every facili-
ty known in order that he may rise
by stepping upon his dead self to
grasp the hand of the living energy
and vital manhood that awaits him.
We wish to mention other short
hand writers of our city in the per-
son of Mrs. Island, Prof. v. T. Tubbs,
Miss l.. A. Shaw, and especially the
accomplished Miss Avis Caldwell,
stenographer to Hon. M. NJ. Rodgers,
Grand Secretary of the Knight of
Pythias. We need just now 500 short
hand writers that could secure good
positions in the government Why
not prepare, young men and and
young women? The gaze lies OPEN?
