to take the white papers and also
trade with them some for they
have, beyond a shadow'ofa doubt,
been friends to the Negro. You
cannot and must not hold all of
the white people responsible for
the bad deeds that others have
done, for we have as, good white
people as has ever trodden God’s
soil. But what about the Negro
paper? There are about eight
thousand Negroes here in Athens
and about six thousand taking
white news papers and four hun
dred taking Negro papers. Let
us pull up a little more and sup
port the Negro press in order that
we can learn some of the good
things that the race is doing and
we will be encouragedj to do
more toward making better citi
zens and will know more about
being loyal to our county and de
mocracy. I am encouraged to see
that we have a few ministers who
are well prepared to teach the
race without bring so much mess
io the pulpit for these are the
commandments that Jesus left
with H,s disciple that they should
torch all nation My command
ments. Wo also have some ex
cellent teachers in our schools
who are doing their duty. Oi
c. urse I have just as much respect
for the man behind the plow handle
the woman in the ki'.chen, the
girl at the wheel of a baby car
riages, the maid with the broom,
the butler with his crumb pan,
the hotel man with his waitor,
the chauffeur at the steering
wheel, the mao on the street
wagon, the postman with his mail
bag. the woman at the wash tuh,
or the rail splitter; for they are
just as useful and important to
democracy in my estimation as
the lawyer at the bar or the teach-

er in the school room or the doc
tor at the operating table or any
other professional department
of life, provided if they are well
trained, for at this “high noon
tide” democracy depends on it, so
let us as a race press foward and
with this method of co-operation
we can stimulate race pride, and
build bigger business and gain
our place in the sun.
lam thank to God for one
thing we can truly claim that we
are in part responsiable for the
advance made in the world effort
to make the world saft for demo
cracy and breaking the brck bone
of Germany’s autocracy,|«o let us
first observe the teaching of our
Saivor, be loyal to our country
and fellowman and make demo
cracy what it ought to be, or else
report to God the reason why.
