A Deserving Colored Mim
A most deserving colored roan in
our community, but one whose "Wf
esty prevents bitn from parading his
attuinmtats, is James Ch?-snut. It
i? not generally known, but ho is a
competent architect and is woll qual
ified to make detail drawings and:
specification of almost any kind of]
work. After about two years of]
close application and much hard
Htudy ho has completed- a mail
course from the International Oorro
f-pondence School ofSorantoo, Penn.,|
and we tako pleasure in saying that
anyone having building of any kind
to do will make no mistake in con_|
suiting him.
Tbo large new poets In front ofj
the High School building woro made
from plan3 drawn by him, and the]
oeoutiful concrete work which May
or Oarriwra lias recently had done
in front his handsome residence
is a practical demonstration of Jim's
ability and proves him to bo an adopt
in hi* profession.
