Unusual Race of Wild Geese

an unusual race of wild geese is
said to exist in British Columbia
and southeastern Alaska. They are
known locally as white checked
geese and resemble the well-known
Canada goose in many respects, be-
ing approximately the same size
but much darker in plumage. They
also differ from other goose spe-
cies in that they are reluctant to
migrate south in the fall and many
remain TO spend their entire life in
the northern RANCE.

Why Howad is Called the Ma
tIonal University for the Higher
Education of the Negro Race

Its location at the national
capital and generous support by
the federal government con-
stitute its chief claim to that
title.
My recent proposal for t h e
establishment of national Ne
gro Museum would go far to-
wards fulfilling a national func-
ton which is nowhere provid-
ed for in the educational scheme
OF this nation. Howard has sent
out ten thousand graduates and
as many more sometime stu
dents who have shared the par
tlal benefits of its courses. They
are scattered throughout the
length and breadth of the land
devoting themselves to the up
lift and beted life of the Negro
race. In this respect it may be
truly said to be fulfilling a ma
tional function. However, all
other Negro colleges and univer-
sites have duplicated such
national services to t h e extent
and degree of h r facilities
and capacities. Thanks to the
generosity of the federal govern
m n t, Howard is the largest,
best supported, and best equip
ped of all Negro schools and col
leges; and as a seat of higher
learning, it has assembled the
largest Negro student body and
faculty persuing the various
branches of collegiate and pro-
fessional courses to be found
anywhere else in the nation, or
for that matter, in the world.
1 have sometimes called my
Alma Mater, "T h G Premier
Negro University" this premier
ship however, consists rather in
the range and extension of curri-
cula tn an in acknowledged
superiority in any specific phase
of it's work.
1t is not without apprehension
hewever, that Howard univer-
lsity snowturning out annually
fewer professional graduates in
medicine. law and theology than
it did forty years ago and thus
seems to be lapsing in its func-
tion.It must also be noted that
for excellence in collegiate and
graduate work it rank is no
whit superior to that of Fisk
and Atlanta, according to tn e
appraisal of Mr.. Edwin c. En-
bree, President of the Rosen-
wald Foundation.
In the average Of distinction
and reputation Of its graduates,
Howard can scarcely be said to
outrank Lincoln or Fisk. The
National Negro University can
not depend merely upon the To-
cation or the physical plant or
mere extension Of its curricula.
but must jstify its claim by its
performance. T e National
Negro University which justifies
its claims must possess a pirit
which quickens and energies
the intellectual and moral spirit
of the race. AS such an inStitu-
ton INST depend upon altruistic
support and craftsmanship, its
wach word and rally cry must
be patriotism and philanthropy.

function Of a National Negro
