Approved by NeighbOrs

Within the last month the Commercial Club of
Nashville has placed itself on record as indorsing
Fisk University, using these words: "Fisk is an
asset of unreasonable value to the business and
spiritual interests of the city y n y Nowhere
else can funds be more wisely and more strate-
gically invested for the development of Negro col
lege education and for the solution of our great
race problem than at Fisk University in our own
city"
The University is now starting upon a campaign to secure
100000 for the endowment Of teachers salaries and
for the much-needed improvement of the plant. While
holding to the highest standards and continually sitting
its student body Fisk has been obliged to turn away three
hundred applicants this year for lack of dormitory space.
Friends of the cause are urged to examine our work either
by personal visit or by correspondence. 1t is hoped that
many friends will find it wise to contribute to the endow-
ment campaign, whether in large or small amounts. Fisk
can serve the South and the nation only as the South and
the nation provide the resources with which to continue and
enlarge the work. All persons interested are invited to
address The President at Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn.

School of Standards

Fisk is modern in it's methods, rigid in its re-
quirements, careful in its supervision of the
routine life of the students. Four terms of
twelve weeks each make it an all-year college,
Classes generally meet five times>each week
so that each student concentrates upon three
subjects at a time. Two hours of study is re-
quired for each hour of recitation. Study
hours are supervised. Physical exercise and
recreation are required six, days a week.
Students are reclassified each six weeks if
they show signs Of failure in one or more sub
jects. Fisk desires to give the best of oppor-
t~unities for the best of work by the best Of
students.

A School for the Poor

The tuition and other charges are very low at Fisk.
Beginning next year, the former tuition charge of
$500 per year for college students will be dou-
bled. High school charges remain unchanged.
Board, lodging and laundry cost S17,0O per month.
Very constant endeavor is made to keep down in
dividual expenditures for clothes, CONNECTIONS,
flowers and display of every sort. Economy and
simplicity are prime essentials. 1t is desired so to
order life that the poorest of the poor shall always
be comfortable at Fisk. Exclusiveness of every
sort is opposed at every turn.

Fisk University

Fisk University opened its doors January 9,
1866. 1t was named for Gen. Clinton B. Fisk,
one of it's founders. It's great builder was
President E. NJ. Cravath, who put a quarter of
a century into it's service. He was followed
by DR.. j. G. Merrill and DR.. George A. Gates.
President Fayette Avery Mckenzie took
charge in June, 1915.
Situated at Nashville, the university is within
125 miles of the center of the,Negro population
of the United States. 1t is by far the largest
Negro college in the South, and is within u
hours ride of 1870 of the total Negro popula-
ton of the country.

Types of Education

Twelve millions of people need every type Of
notwithstanding, secondary, industrial,
literary-secular, religious. The process thus
far has been fairly normal. The rudiments
and tools Of intellectual communication came
first. Then there came a great expansion in
industrial lines. But all the time there was
growing up the material-the number of
students prepared for it-that would make
possible genuine collegiate institutions. Thus
far they have largely made bricks without
straw, but the hour has struck when wisdom
calls for collegiate opportunities of the high
est quality for our colored youth. The appeal
to provide these opportunities goes out to
every person who has any means, large or
small, and who has eyes to see the need and
ears to hear the call.
The news scimitar. (Memphis, Tenn.) 1907-1926, 1920-02-17

The world stands trembling on the
threshold of a new era-a world shak-
en- and torn by the reaction following.
in the wake of it's four years,of suffer-
ing as the war gods tested their metal.
Slowly it is emerging from this per-
iod-struggling for the restoration
of peace, meanwhile assailed on every
side by the preaching of false doc
trines and strange tongues, crazed by
selfish desires, seeking to overthrow
the institutions upon which our gov
eminent has been founded, and to OBJ
literate those, principles Of equity,
justice and right for which our fore
fathers so valiantly fought, and
which, since their time, have been
~zealously guarded by every true
American.
In the midst of such confusion knowl-
edge alone can serve as a point about
which the law-abiding citizens>of our.
nation may take their stand. Knowl-
edge, gained through education, the
proper conception of man, his obliga-
tions, rights and his relation to his
fellow man.. Education is the great
est menace to the fallacies of the agi-
tator. 1t develops minds to see
through the flimsy subterfuges by
which the Bolshevik endeavors to
present his doctrines.

Education for Peace

A great race of twelve millions living within
a nation predominatingly of another type
will be a great blessing in itself and to the ma
ton only if it is offered and accepts the broad
est opportunities to develop it's maximum
capacities and to share effectively in the great
common ideals and civilization by which it is
surrounded. Veal and woe are bound up in
the provisions which shall be made today for
the education of the races. Peace is depen-
dent upon the training, of the mind for under
standing and of the heart for Cancellation.

Allies Would Gust "Sick Man Of

lslamic World
DESPAIR OF U. S. MANDATE

Washington. Jan. o.-Abandonlng
hope that the United States could be
induced to accept a mandate over Tur-
key. the allied powers arc in corre-
spondPncc with view TO finding some
solution of the problem of cXpclliug the
Turks from Europe without causing such
an uprising among the Mohammcdan
people as would endanger the control of
the European nations over them.
Information reaching Washington Is
that these efforts arc in progress outside
of Paris. where the Suprcm" Council
is sitting. though it is expected that the
ratification of that body will be- required
to give effect to any plans adopted.
Reports from India. Egypt and other
Mohammcdan countries of general OBJ
lection to the expulsion of the Turk
from Europe and insistencc upon the
retention of the head of their church
in ConStantinople. under threats of boy
colt of Christian business and trade and
even actual warfare, have stimulated
cndeavors of the Entente foreign offices
to find some plan which will satisfy the
MuSSelmeu and at the same time free
tonStantinoplc from Turkish maladmis- o
/ iStratiou.
One such project which seems to af-
! ford a basis for action contcmplatcS the
assumption of the control of Constan
tinople by the league of nations. This
would include the declaration Of the
city as a free port and the actual ad
ministration Of the place by commis-
sion nominated by the Mohammedau
/ population of countries and colonies
such as India. Egypt, Tuuis. Morocco
and possibly the Malays Of the Philip
pines. if the United States can be in
durcd to participate to that extent.
1t is proposed to give this commission
full powers to control CoustantinopIc
politically and to administer the loca
government. But to satisfy the Mo
hammedanS the sultan and his suite
would be permitted to reside there and
TO exercise from there all of the func-
tions of the head of his church. His
position would, therefore, in some meas
urc correspond to that of the Pope il
NRomc after he had been divestcd of his
temporal powers.
