Trite but true is the axiom Eek

pecially is this true in regard to a

greater effect than all his precepts.
In Righteousness, faith, patience,
and in obedience to God, this man.
Job, was an exemplary father. It is
said concerning his children, that af-

sacrificed for them and offered burnt
offerings. We do not know what the

The character Of Job is summarized
in Job IL. used here as a text: That

was Jesus Begins His Work. He

Jesus determined to do, and said he

Broken Promises

With the essence of the spring campaign in the air,
the aspiring candidates have began the old racket of
promising the Negroes jobs IF you support me-.
The thing of paramount Importance now is, whom
can we trust? Many Negroes who are innocently led to
the polls and most of them know nothing of the candidates.
for whom they cast their vote, other than some smart pol
itical leader has told them that he is going to give me a
job.
1t is of much Importance to the Negroes of Omaha
to note that after all the promises made by many candidat
es, very few Of them have been kept. We are tired of
these old worn out promises and the voting Negroes
should avail themselves with every detail concerning any
candidate up for election.
Let past promises be an example for the coming
spring election. Even though funds are low, why econ
omizeo on the Negro when he is the smallest percentage on
the payroll.
Ii is true that through this crisis we have to adjust
ourselves to conditions, but there is no reason why we
shouldn't fight for our rights. We are a part of this.
community, We have voting power and we must unite this
strength in one common cause. We would suggest when
one of these candidates selects a Negro representative tor
sew up votes for him, we say to you, make him sign his
name on the dotted line or the equivalent thereof.

PRISONS AND PRISONERS
by Clifford C. Mitchell

by Clifford C. Mitchell
John Erskine provides a splendid
thought for an appropriate New
Years theme, in the following quo
tation;
at is an awful thing for a man to
&C through life without develop
ing all the talents within him.
self"
Last week it was my privilege to
spend several hours in the offices of
the SCHOOL NEWS, during which
time | carefully perused over a score
of prison publications published by
prisoners in prisons ranging from
Vermont to California.
In one respect all Of the papers
were alike. They all stress the nee
essity of each prisoner solving his
own problem through self-analyz-
alton, study and constant application
in the things that are conducive to
self-improvement.
A close observation of these var
ious periodicals failed to reveal a
single institution that could even
compare with Jackson Prison in the
matter of facilities and opportunities
provided for the advancement of the
prisoners.
And in keeping with the words Of
John Erskine it would indeed be an
awful thing for any prisoner, espec-
tally in this institution. to serve out
his sentence without making any eff
fort to develope all the talents within
himself.
There could be no finer New Years
resolution than for each prisoner to
resolve that during the year 1888 he
will be serious in striving to improve
his condition through the develop
ment Of any latent talents that he
may possess.
Not only should each prisoner make
such a resolution but the time to
commence its fulfillment is NOW!
The fact is that those of US who a
see freedom only as a very remote
and distant object are forced to COM
mence some program of progressive
sef-improvement in order to be
properly prepared when in another
year or so there is bound to be a con-
siderable change in the vocational
opportunities of the majority of the
prisoners who have now a daily task
to perform.
When the day arrives that the ma
jority of the men now working are
thrown out of active employment
there will be much competition for
each possible job that only those
who have made the most develop
ment Of their personal talents will
be assured of favorable consideration.
1t therefore becomes not only a
matter Of personal pride but a prob
lem of our own personal prison sal
walton, if we are DESTROYS of being
kept employed, to so improve our tai
ents. and our usefulness to our en-
ployers. that we will be assured of
continuous employment in the few
jobs that will still be in existence af-
ter another year or so.
Even now the prisoner who has a
job and is careless, or ~inattentive in
the holding of same. will find a keen
competition among the unemployed
prisoners who are so improving them
selves, and acquainting their capabil-
tiles to prospective employers, that it
should be a constant threat to an in
different worker.
No mater which viewpoint you
take, the prisoner who is content to
drift along from day to day without
making any attempt to develop all
the talents within himself is going
to be the loser, both in prison and
when he finally energies therefrom.
What will 1888 mean to you?

FAIR PLAY FOR THE NEGRO

1t is one of lifes tragedies that those who are at
a disadvantage in normal times are at a proportionately
still greater disadvantage in abnormal times. This un-
fortunate tendency is illustrated by the plight of the A
merican Negro. In the large cities Negroes form some
thing like 4 percent of the population but Of the unem-
ployed they form Is per cent.
A special instance of injustice to members of this
race is noted by Mr.. Walter White, secretary of the Ma
tional Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie. Speaking in the Catholic interracial hour over the
PauIist Fathers radio station, Mr.. White called attention
to the conditions under which one of the greatest engin-
eering feats of modern times is being performed. This
is the ~buildingof levees, spilways and other structures for

Please Be Careful

Each candidate is again re-
quested to please be ex-
tremely careful in filling out
their subscription receipts
this last week. This includes
getting the name, initial, full
address, amount paid, and
the right name on each slip
correctly and in a legible
manner.
If you sell a new subscrip
ton please be sure to mark
it NEW. If you sell a re-
newal or a second payment
subscription just mark it
OLD. By filling out your
slips carefully and legibly it
will help us greatly in pro-
perly crediting the payment
and delivering the paper.

KEEP
ACTIVE

Under the campaign rules
each candidate must turn in
at least two subscriptions on
each Wednesday and each
Saturday, to share in the
prizes. This means you must
have at least four subscrip-
tons in the sealed ballot box
by 9 o'clock the last night,
to share in the awards. This
is extremely important and
will be very easy for even
the poorest candidate to do
if they make any effort at
all this last week.

list you will know just who is a prospect. The

seen personally by candidate-wil result
in securing lots of subscription payments as
the subscribers do want to make the savings
we are offering them. They haven't paid to

their money as long as possible - this is the
last week, however, and they will realize they
must pay now to make the saving.
