Editor Sentinel:
Please allow me space for the fol-
'lewing:
In response to a special call issued
by Rev. A. Majors, about fifty of the
leading colored citizens met in a mass
meeting at Vincent Chapel A. M. E.
church on the evening Of the 18th
inst. and organized the Parent-Teach-
ers Association.
After the nature of the meeting
had been stated by Rev. Majors about
thirty members were enrolled and
the following officers were elected:
Liddie Walston, President, Rev. A. S.
Blake, Vice-President, r. II. Jones,
Secretary, S. w. Lewis, Assistant
Secretary, F. Pass, Treasurer.
The main feature Of the occasion
tAs the address of Prof. ". w. Black
burn, newly elected principal Of our
school.
In speaking of the needs Of educa-
tiop, he said, Progress cannot be
built on ignorance" He spoke feel
ingly Of the deplorable condition
generally, in which he found our
school, and while fixing the blame on
no one, declared it was a disgrace that
patrons had found it necessary to
send their children off to college while
yet in the sixth, seventh or even the
tenth grade, as these should easily be
in the range of our home school.
The patrons were also soundly |
scored by him, for, not only lack of
school pride but church pride as we'll.
In fact it could easily be seer that
his idea of the ideal teacher is, that
he should not only be an intellectual
force but q moral force as we'll in his
community.
Everybody was very enthusiastic
over the meeting and l am sure ]
voice the sentiment of the masses in
thanking Supt. Rumble and the board
CT trustees for placing such an able
educator as Prof. Blackburn At the
head of our school.
Signed.
y. l.. Brown, Acting SeCV.

much for school books as the patrons
of Tennessee are paying for the same
books. This statement is made only

LEPER PATIENTS TO
BE CURED VERY SOON
In Ten Years Famous Colony Will
Be No More ~

Honolulu, T. H., May 4.-Sixty-
five per cent of the chronic cases OF
leprosy in the Kalaupapa leper col
ony, Island of Molokai, will be cured
within the next two years by the use
of the chaulmoogra oil specific pre-
pared by DR.. A. l.. Dean. president
Of the University of Hawaii. and with
i'm ten years the famous old leper
settlement will be a thing of the
past, according to the expressed be-
lief of DR.. w. J. Goodhue, the settle-
ment's resident physician.
DIR. Goodhue and territorial health
board officials do not hesitate to say
that a number of cases in the colony
never will recover, that the disease
has gone too far to even be arrested
by chaulmoogra oil, and the fcare OF
these, it is believed will nccessitate
keeping the colony running for an
other decade. In the meantime, how
ever, it is confidently expected, the
majority of cases at Kalaupapa will
be cured and discharged within TWEEN
ty-four months.
Members, of the territorial legisla-
ture recently visited Molokai, thor
oughly inspected the colony and made
| estimates of improvements to be car
ried out. there. -. -a...
Although they may be cured, a
number Of. the older inmates of the
settlement always will bear pron,f-
nently the marks of leprosy's ravages
and for these, who have no interests
elsewhere, President Charles Chilling
worth of the territorial senate, has
| suggested setting aside government,
