NEGRO HISTORY.

NEGRO HISTORY.
Our schools are planned for the pu-
pills of one great race only, and we
fall under the system with no pro-
vision made for our children in par
ticular. 1t has long been conceded
that life stories and past histories
are great incentives toward inspira-
tion for future usefulness and should
hold an important place in the scheme
of education. Is 1t then not the duty
rem to make some effort to supple
ment this commission in our schools
by reading Negro History and life
stories of noted Negroes to the chill
dren?
. A vivid and clear exposition of the
Harriet Beacher Stoves Uncle Toms
Cabin 1t should be read to our
children early and through 1t they
can get an undying impression of the
sufferings and struggles Of our faith
Yes-It is a tale of horror, which
makes even the grown-ups shudder
and wonder that man could have ever
been so inhuman. viii not the next
generation reading our present day
and instances of Race prejudice that
we endure, have the same impress
sion?
While we read to our children

wonderful opportunity to impress
them with a sense of a high call
ing, a sense of moral obligation to
live nobly to dedicate themselveg to
the uplift of the down trodden and
to ally themselves with the heroic.
To them there is no time for low
aim and idling. they must be strong,
they can expect no favors. all sue
cess must come from within. This
condition has always produced the
greatest souls. They must be impress
sed that there is no stigma in belong

Truth Must be read TO them. How
often we meet with our graduates
who know absolutely nothing of the
history of their own people. Is this

Let our clubs arouse an interest In
this subject by urging our teachers
TO teach these stories by asking our
boards of education for permission to
go into the schools and tell them our
selves. Let il be known that we eX-

of the Dunbar poems and to know

THE MONITOR.
AUNT PATS FORUM.

Dear Aunt Pat:
1 want to bob my hair. My hus-
hand abpects. / can't see why, it is
all the style.
Yours,
NJ dear Sue:
Yes, bobed hair is the style and
quite the rage just now but ones
personality and makeup should be
thoroughly considered before adopt
ing any new style. 1 have always
thought that this style. 1 have always
must have been created especially
for us. since most OF us naturally
have bobed hair. all that is neces-
sary in most cases is a little trim
ming up of the ends and edges. To
my notion however this style is very
becoming to the Misses and the school
going girl, suited especially to the
narrow face. The quality of the hair
has much to do with its charm. I do
not admire this style on an old face,
nor a large round one, nor where the
hair is stiff. If you have a young
face. with narrow outline and a fair
quality of hair. you may insist on
wearing the style. otherwise pre-
fer the Judgment of your husband.
Lovingly,
AUNT PAT.
