PROF. AND MRS. AARON E. MA
LONE, OF PORO COLLEGE, ST.
LOUIS, MO-, AND WINDS UP WITH
THE BISHOPS AND PREACHERS
AT GALVESTON, TEXAS.

Galveston, Texas.-We all rejoic
to know that our friend. one bushes
genius, the man who is doing $
much for his people everywhere, Pro
Aaron f. Malone is able to be at hi
desk once more, and has been n
stored to health.
For FIVE months or more, he Ia
been confined to his bed. attended b
a specialist, two trained nurses, an
Mrs. Annie NJ. Malone as a specis
nurse. He had to undergo an opera
ton which he stood with grit of irol
and nerve of steel While he wa
suffering severely, yet he was cheer
full ever ready with a joke. He haC
as his companion while confined IL
bed the Holy Bible. which is his com.
panion in health as we'll as in sick
ness. and some Of the best thinkers of
the world, both living and dead. He
daily read from Edgar A. Guest, and
then he walked into the classes. He
took trips to Greece, Rome. Italy.
He talked with Milton, Burns, Plato,
Honor. Virgil.
He followed Lincoln and Douglass
from birth to their changing worlds
and with this all he read the daily
papers, the weakly papers, magazines
in fact he just fed his mind and
soul while the nurses and cooks fed
his body. He is today one of the
best all around posted men in the
race.
Nothing but the Father OF the Uni
verse, God threw the two people to-
gether, husband and wife. Mrs. Ma
lone is a woman whose heart goes
out for the unfortunate, for TIE suf-
fering, and no worthy appeal is ever
turned away by her. Thousands Of
dollars have gone into charitable in
situations. She has given to the Y.
NJ. c. A. work of this country over
$4,000, and am not in position to
tell you just how many thousands
she has given to the orphans and
about 5000 to helping the people in
Quincy.
But is that all they are doing? No,
they have made the business world |
take notice. They have represented |
us where we needed representation. |
The erection Of that home for Poro
college, a whole business block, repre-
senting the progress of our people is
an eye-opener. Our editor was there |
just little over a year ago, and after
looking and looking, and walking
around he declared THE half has not
been told"
You can just spend a week in Poro
college without having to go out.
Starting with the lobby, the finest Of
its kind in America owned by US,
then the place where the large num-
Der of clerks are at work. the ship
ping room, the packing room. the
chemical room. You will just have to
see for yourself, because l can't tell
you. In basement ice plant, making
ice, sending ice water all through the
building, the bakery. the operating
room, the living rooms and. by that
! mean hotel rooms for guests, the
living quarters of Prof and Mrs. Ma
lone, the press room, for newspaper
men, the committee room, the cafe
say you just go and see all this for
yourself and don't bother me to try

II you desire to visit Poro college,
Ind will just notify either Mr.. or
Mrs. Malone. you will find an auto
mobile car carriage to meet you, and :
when you get there il will be just like {
Eo:ng to visit your own relatives for

did not mention the auditorium, I
where / had the pleasure of hearing
he Williams singers, where saw j
tagged a drama by the employees Of }
ne college, teaching a moral, where :
had the pleasure of seeing over two
hundred employees assemble before r
5oing to work for prayer, and where I
heard some practical remarks made
o them. ! am sure that a line from q
'ou to Mr.. Aaron E. Malone, con-
-ratulation on his recovery and on {
lis successful combating the disease
which attempted to take his life, 4
would be appreciated v
Now away from that, for / am way a
