Mr.. James Fl. Allen. of &c Forbes St.

bility to See the fruit are tempted to
become disheartened. An incident in
my own life will illustrate and may
speak encouragement to some disheart-
ened worker:
1t was in the midst of a long and
hard days work, trying to get men and
women to come in and help throw out
the Life line to men whose passions
were driving them down beyond the
breakers.
1t was on the northern part of New
Jersey Coast.

and looked down the coast as far south
as | could lee, and again cried, "Fa-
| Their, no fruit" | could not see fruit
commensurate with the work, sacrifice
and toll that had been given. | then
seeing a little cottage half buried in
the sand, up further in along the
beach,, | fastened to 1t, knelt in a quiet
hiding place and prayed: Father, have

rash in taking up such a work for

not, why so little fruit? Will there be
any reward for me when this work

 Constructive conservation of our na- .tural resources in Alabama is still in it's infancy. You can no more develop the conservation idea by exclusive re- strietive measures, with no thought of a building program, than you can de- velop character in child by continual 1J preaching the Thou shalt not" pro gram into him. A conservation program cannot be constructed in a negative way
 it must be built up in a positive at mosphere.
 s Man, with the, aid of nature, does not plant wild life in field, forest. and stream in order to make it possible for the game and fish hog to go out and help himself but rather that the eco- homie needs of the community may be supplied, and, that all those who would enjoy the healthful recreation awaiting them in. the great out-of-doors, may have their every wish gratified; and man attempts to add to these resources in order to guarantee a continuous sup ply for this and succeeding generations. l- These are fundamental principles which the department of game and fish cries recognizes, and in the future will use all the power and every prerogative which it has at its command to see to it that these principles, so we'll es- tablished, will be carried out.
 What then is the program of the future in Alabama? do not care how highly organized the department of

 tax will aggregate $26,000 per year, which will be augmented by grants from state and other funds.
 When the program is completed, the county will have for its negro children 70 up to date rural school buildings. fifteen junior high school buildings, and one central high school building. The rural school buildings will be grouped about the junior high schoo'. and the junior high schools will be feeders for the central agricultural high school. The junior high school will be o located that every black farm boy and girl, over fourteen years of age, will be within reach of one of the junior high schools or the central high school Approved Smith Hughes courses n vocational ag- riculture and vocational home eco monies will be taught at the idnior high school and at the central high school.
 The example of Coahoma county, should be of interest to othe. southern cotton growing counties, which are faced by a similar problem of negro education.
 Plantation System
 "Coahoma county, one of the richest cotton growing counties in the south, is located on the Mississippi river, sixty miles south of Memphis, in the heart of the fertile Mississippi delta. The ownership of the land is concentrated largely in the hands of a few great plantation owners, and the negroes of the county are practically all tenant farmers. For this reason the land own. CTS have a direct economic interest in the intelligence of the negro farmers. The preponderance of negro children over white children in the county is in- dicated by the fact that there are 12,478 rural negro children against 1,059 white rural children. The educational prob lems of the county are therefore largely of negro education.
 "In the last few years there has been a strong feeling that the county should provide the very best schools that are possible for its negro children. The real need has been for vocational agri- cultural schools for the negroes. The county has long provided a generous system of general public schools, and at the present time every child within school age, has an opportunity to attend the free public school for eight months during the year. The land owners at. tribute the fact that Coahoma county has never suffered from a lack of suita- ble tenants, as have many other south ern regions, due to this generous school policy of the past. The county school board recently came to a decision that it should so further and provide an ade quate system of vocational schools through which up to date instruction in vocational agriculture and home eco- monies may be made available to every negro boy and girl of school age.
 Various agencies and individuals have contributed to the development of this system of schools for Coahoma county, P. F. Williams, county super intendsnt of education, has kept in con stant touch with Mir. Bura Hilbun, state supervisor of negro schools"
