John Work ha<i served Fisk University for a generation before this little man was ??? I'HE I'ALMBT ~V ' - ~ * ever heard of at the institution.'! The in flue nee-and popularity of 1 ""The liro\vn .man was evidently so 1 great as to arouse the iealousv bFthtTIittle white man who was 1 ?brought into- the institution as \ ?superior: 61ficer. We do not i know wha-t- influence at first re-, moved Work from leadership 1 and membership- in the "Fisk J Singers/' but we know it was a t very evil influence that --finally : . forced him out of-the institution t ahogether, so that jn his fabler ] days, broken in health -by long sacrificingTvorlr for FtskT he had'i to take refuge in a school main- i tamed b> colured people. After i pursuing the "missionary i- j deals" for all of his soundTife - ?he was kicked out by a ffo\vcbm- t er,-^? and like ~ ahold horse was i allowed to find what pasturage he might.? ? -? Of all the water-eyed saints,,C from. Boston to California, wha-i had shouted "amen!" in a hun- -r dred great meetings where his s line voice thrilled, none arose to ? save him from the foot of Baal . and the boot jOf Mammon. John ihe pioneers in stereotyping the ; great "spiritual" music of the e r >>egro race,?and the voices of t 2 the "Fisk Singer's" laid the foun- ^ i dation fw-all the f.titur u succor ~ . of that music: \ And yet they tell us to be "un. selfish" &nd to."sacrifice fof^the - 'Lord," and to go^into "mission- -s i _ary worlCIlJmiioad-of--gemg into 4 \_ a paying business. ,'WelL a few ? . more examples and the failure L t of men like John Work will leave f only idiots fof "missionary serf vice."
