THE GO TO SCHOOL MOVE
MENT.

A movement has been started by
the members of the Junior Chamber
OF Commerce which may well receive
the hearty commentator and sup
port OF all thinking parents in Dali
las.
It IL called the Ego to school,
movement and II has as Its aim
the encouragement Of every child
Of school age TO enroll in school at
its beginning and attend consistent
ly.
Our parents and children may
well foster such movement.
Free education has not always
been available for us and its lack
has been keenly felt by preceding
generations.
If that handicap is not to con-
tinue, pains must be taken to see
that those now able to obtain an
education do so to the fullest ex-
tent.
The day OF successful unframed
people has passed. II is no longer
true that those who have just
come up and graduated from the
school of experience" are able to
nplO tuctH OWn III u bChcElS WnC' .
competition is keen and opportuni-
ties for success are apparent only
to one whose vision has been rem
dered broad by special training.
Let all of our children go to
school. Let them learn of the
things and the people with which
they wi deal and among whom
they N lst move upon reaching
their M iority.
We are now handicapped by a
great and unwieldly mass OF ig-
norance which educational advan-
tages OF a generation ago would
have rendered smaller and of less
account.
Education Is a necessity. Its per
cent among any people Is q guage
of their rate OF progress.
II we would increase our rate OF
progress, let us increase our per
centage of educated people.
Fostering the Ego to school move
ment will keut to do this.
Let us all unite In seeing to 4
that every Negro child OF school
age In Dallas enters school and at
tends regularly from the beginning.

AUNT PATS FAREWELL.

Dear headers:
The Dallas Express has kept open
this department under a condition of
sacrifice to both its editor and the
management, because it has met with
such hearty repsonse from our
women readers, but it has at last
been thought best to discontinue the
Corner for the present. l am quite
sure you will receive this news with
genuine regret.
The work has been a pleasant one
and your editress has made host
of new friends, who will ever remain
dear 20 her. She is truly apprecia-
tive of the many letters that have
come to her expressing appreciation
for the service and thanking her for
personal help along varied lines. She
shall ever keep her readers in mind
and when the lean days" are over,
she hopes to come back with many
things new and interesting. till then.
long farewell,
Lovingly.
AUNT PAT.
