New York - Fifty-two years
ago Emmanuel Brown started a
grade-school in an 18x2O log hut
which he built with his own
hands. Today the school is a
100000 assemblage Of sturdy
brick buildings, with 400 students
and IA teachers.
The October issue Of CORO.
NET out September %, tells of
the almost super-human struggles
OF this man to realize his dream
of educating the underprivileged
children of Alabama. Born one
of ten children of a former
slave, Emmanuel Brown went to
school in a dirty, overcrowded
schoolhouse for ten years. Not
until he escaped by sheer deter
mination the dreary routine of
dirt-farming, and went to another
school, did he realize that those
ten years were, for all practical
purposes, wasted. He made up his
mind then that he would open his
own school to provide all those
children with an education who

could not afford one otherwise.
Today, in spite Of his 50 years
of effort, Emmanuel Brown is
hardly better off financially thar
he was when he started, says the
CORNET article. Like most Of
the teachers in his school, he has
never drawn a salary. In fact,
the school budget runs from
month to month rather than sem
ester to semester, for Emmanuel
Brown never knows whether
there will be enough money to
keep it open or not. Yet he has
somehow managed to get by for
81 years even in spite Of two dis
astrous fires which nearly de-
stroyed everything.
For Emmanuel Brown, COR
NET says, his reward is the daily
appreciation Of the hundreds of
alumni whose lives he has better

Congressman Jackson B. Chase
this week said that he would like

In Douglas, Washington, Cass,
Sarpy and Otoe counties who are
interested in attending the Air
Force and Naval Academies next

Mr.. Chase said he will be Der

nominate two principal and ten
alternate candidates to fill two va
cancies at Annapolis in 1856.
Mr.. Chase stated this year he
would utilize Civil Service Com
mission examination facilities to
assist him in the selection of nomi-
nees for the academies. 'In econ
mending young men for academy
training" he said, 81 want to give
first consideration to merit and
aptitude for a military career"
The examination conducted by
the Civil Service Commission is a
preliminary test designed to deter
mine an applicants chance of sue

quently nominated for academy ap-

HOWARD u. EXPECTS
BETTER FOOTBALL YEAR

Washington, D. C. (CNS) =
Coach Tom Johnson who has seen
Towards football team win only
five games in his two years al
the helm, thinks this is the year.
He bases it mainly on the fact
that there's no lack of manpower
this year with Howard having a
return of Is lettermen seeking
berths on the squad. On top of
this the Central intercollegiate
Athletic Association came to the
aid of non-scholarship teams by
limiting all teams to So players.
Howard too has its lightest
schedule in years. All Of these
points show a good year-to

Dedicated Corinfh Church

said, HE that losses his life shell
find it, and he that saveth his life
shall lose it." He said, 81 came
not to destroy the Law but to full
fill it. Jesus emphasized love.
When he was asked which of the
Ten Commandments were the
greatest, he said, Thou shall love
the Lord with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy
mind, and the second is like unto
it, thy shall love thy neighbor as
thyself.
What am I trying to say? l am
convinced that formality alone
makes for confusion, but the last
ing, the eternal, the important fac
tor in bringing peace in a confused
world is the spirit of Christ Jesus.
Christ stated that where ever
there are two or three assembled
in his name, that he would be
there in the midst. Christ was
crucified because man wanted to
rid Of him and his way, but they
did not get rid of Jesus. When he
was going away, he gave a COM
mand to his disciples, $50 We into
all the world and preach my gospel
and 10, I am with you all ways
On another occasion he said, great
er work than l do, We can do" He
left a job for US to do, and every
since the Christ gave this com
mand, there have been men dedi-
eating and re-dedicating them
selves and not only themselves,
but dedicating and re-dedicating
buildings that they may help to
carry on in the name of Christ
and do the job that he asked that
we do. But each man only starts
on the job, each man has a little
bit that he can do, then he passes
on and another and another come
and work and they too pass on.
No man is able to complete the
task that Jesus gave us. And like
wise it is with the Church, no one
IS able to stop the Church. That
has been tried by kings, and
queens and they have failed, and
since no one can either stop nor
complete the Church, each one
can do his bit in either direction
and pass on to reward. 1t is my
prayer that the Corinth Baptist
Church will help all those who
come and worship and those who
pass on the street is someway to
dispell the dark and bring peace
and love to this world of confusion,
and help save the souls of men.
What has been said today in this
dedication service is powerful, may
it be long remembered, may some
of the noble words sink deep into
your memory and serve to inspire
you. But what you have felt here
today, may it be eternal and guide
and keep you as you build togeth-
er with God the Eternal Rock"
May God bless each of you and
may your hearts be filled with love
because God is high and holy, yet
he has respect for the lowly.
