Under our system incompetents with
pull easily shove aside those who can
deliver the goods.
With a perpetuatioa of this system
Their are but TWO places open TO men of
ability but who lack the pull. ordinary
labor and leadership of labor. Since a
chain of circumstances may make it
impossible for the unfavored ones to be
ordinary laborers the only recourse then
is to become labor leaders.
Labor leaders and political leaders are
increasing, labor agitation and political
agitation are joining hands This must
result eventually in the hampering of
industry. He who can gaze into the fu.
ture will see that instead of putting men
to WORK we al e putting them to discour-
age others from working.

bert White for ANP)-The Nations
Commerce, New York weekly maya
zine, praised the program of Bishop
College of Marshall in an editorial in
its May issue. The editorial was as
follows:
"In surveying the condition Of our
leading educational institutions in diff

ton of the past few years.
Coming in this category is the well

Bishop College under the capable
leadership Of Joseph j. Rhoades is a
fine example of what can be accom-
plished through efficient and fore
sighted management and strict adher-
ence to the highest ideals of the
American educational word.
"This college was founded with high

carried forward the principles Of
founders and its present condition to-
day is truly reflective of the work be-
ing done by Mr.. Rhoades."

Closing Exercises of
Western University
By R. A. Adams

Western University closed the work
of its scholastic year with the com-
mencement exercises, Wednesday,
May %, and the work was considered
satisfactory, despite the ~handicaps.
The school was operated in Trinity
A. M. E. Church, because of the un-
fortunate situation at Quindaro, where
the school WINS more than 100 acres
of land, which was caused by the ar
bitrary action Of Governor ALI Lam
don, in appointing for the industrial
department a board of men who were
-antagonistic toward the interests of
the A. M. E. Church, and the cleo
ton of W. T. Vernon as superinten-
dent of the State controlled depart
ment.
Only the Theological Department
and the Religious Education Depart
ment were in operation. A course in
music was begun, but the unfortunate
death Of Miss Helen Omega Brooks.
ne director, caused discontinuance Of
this department.

Lesson From a Little
Child

By r. A. Adams
(For the Literary Service Bureau,
If you would a lesson learn,
And forsooth, you would discern,
What in human life is best,
This you'll find by every test,
Purest and least indebted
In an artless little child.
If you'd learn a lesson wise,
OF life without shrewd disguise,
Happy, innocent and free,
Such as life was blessed to be
Ere man was by sin beguiled,
Seek it in a little child.

Of what we should be, and do.

BEGGARS AND CHOOSERs

The purport of the saying, "Beg-
gars cannot be choosers" is that when
one is dependent he is expected to re-
4 gratefully whatever may be CIV
an TO him, and not attempt to dictate
l n matters of this kind. Often men,
dlcants presume to make demands on
their ~benefactors. Especially is this
true of many blind persons. In this
way many needy persons lose benefits
that would have been bestowed but
Tor their folly. Both common sense
n the sense of gratitude would for.
oio such a course of procedure an6
would prevent one from committing
'ne folly of trying to dictate in re
eara to supplying of his needs when h,
dependent and such has been re
quested.

Dear Father:
Thanks for your comforting letter.
! understand now, and my fears are
gone. Now, Father, 1 know you know
what is best and l always want to do
what you want me to do. More than
that, l will do what you want me to
do. Now, Daddy, you won't be mad
at me if l write to you some more
about those poor little bad girls.
You say going with them might
make me bad but i thought you had
more faith in me than that. And
you say if they don't make me bad
people might say so, if l go with those
little girls. Now, couldn't / make
them good more than they can make
me bad? Then, Daddy Dear, if peo-
pie say | was bad l would know and
you and Aunt Cornelia would know
/ was not bad. Seems to me that
ought to be enough. Isn't it? These
little girls T so jolly and so agree
able that it is hard to believe they are
bad. Remember, Father, l mean to do
whatever you say, and j don't want
you to think anything else, but I am
sorry for these little girls.
Lots of love Daddy, from me and
Aunt Cornelia. Your own,

Young Widow Tempted to Marry an
Ignorant Man for Children's Sake
Marriage Under Circumstances a
Mistake and a Crime-Better Wait
for More Fortunate Circumstances
Marriage for Convenience Is a Car
dinal Sin.
Make Miller:l am a young widow
%, with three children. 1 need a
home for these children and some one
to help me take a + of them. A
mar A wants me to marry him. He
is a widower and has two children
older than mine The main thing is
I do not love this mar and he is so
far beneath me in education. My
children laugh at his language, and I
am ashamed when I'm out with him.
But j need his help so much that 1 am
tempted to take him. What must 1
do Sarah Jane.
Sarah Jane:-You'd commit a crime
to marry this man. You should not
marry without love, and you could not
be happy with a man Of whom you
are ashamed. There's danger that
he'd know how your children feel and
dislike them. Then the two sets of
children would be almost certain to
clash and make trouble. Better wait.
You should not sell yourself even for
your children's sake.-Maxie Miller.

your friends that you are a GUTTER
are you?
Of course you should tough it out for
the year of 1886 will smile favorably
on you and your pocket-book too.
Get down to business and forget your
troubles.
J. H. G.-Will my wife and me
ever be friends again and what should
I do to make her friendly with me?
Ans.-Let your wife go her way for
a couple of months and let her see
that you really want to make her
happy. Your wife will realize that
you are her friend and will be happy
to see you and make friends with
you again. You two will be better
pals in your future years than you
are at present.
W. NJ. C.-Do you think that j will
be able to get the kind of work that
1 want this fall?
Ans1-NoI am afraid that you
won't get a school to TEACH this
fall. 1t seems to me that you will
find work along a different line that
will appeal to you more than teaching
school : However, you will teach
school a little later on in life. Work
along CIVIC lines will appeal to you.
A. D.-Will these people always
poster me to death or what will bring
about a change?
Ans.-Your HUSBANDS RELA-
TIVES will not always poster you the
way they have been doing ever since
you have been married as your hus-
band will soon wake up to the fact
and move out Of the city you are in
He is still blind to the fact that they
are using him for a good thing but it
is not your place to tell him for it
will only make your life unhappy.
He will find it out and when he does
he will bring about some action.
NJ. B. MY man friend seems to
be tired of me and / want to know
if J should forget him?
Ans.-Yes-get him off your mind
for since he has been travelling he has
found several girls that he is inter-
ested in and he does not intend to
marry you. Don't let him waste an
other year of your Life.

M. W.-Will I receive money from
the recent court case that 1 was in
volved in?
Ans.-Before you receive any mon
ey it will cost you quite a bit Of
trouble and expense, as it seems to
me even though you did receive
JUDGMENT in this case is it will be
rather hard to collect the money that
is due you. However, since you have
carried this case this far you may as
well continue.
A. M. Twill it be wise for me
to marry the man that j am now go
ing with and care for and should /
move where he is located?
Ans.-Your friend seems to care
very deeply for you and l think that
you two could be happy together. If
your future mate thinks it best and
you will be able to cut your expenses
then it will be the right thing for you
to move to his EAST SIDE ADDRESS
instead of trying to move to a place of
your own just yet.
L. B.-Please. tell me if S. and B.
are my real parents and is it possible
for me to get a birth certificate?
Ans.-Yes - this couple are your
real parents and you are their ONLY
CHILD. If you will go to your moth
er and explain that you would like
to have a birth certificate l am. con-
fdent that she will arrange to get one
at her earliest convenience.
j. M. P.-Did someone enter the
house and take my purse or what hap
pened to it please?
P Ans.-You lost your purse when
you attended a BANQUET on last
Monday night. Advertise for this
purse for it seems to me that you will
find a trace of this bag through this
manner. If you desire your Astrology
Reading you may send a quarter and
you will receive same by return mail.

umn.
H. c. W.-Please give the name of
the fellow who gives G. B. so much
information about NE?
Ans.-Tf you act wisely you won't
tell your GIRL FRIENDS SO much
about your private affairs. l don't
believe that c.. B. receives his infor-
nation through a young man but a
young lady. He also does some
mighty good guess work as it seems
