/CALVIN'S DIGEST.
A very interesting feature offered the readers ol
Negro newspapers is "Calvin's Digest" by Floyd
.J. Calvin of the'Pittsburg Courier. Mr. Calvin ismure
than ordinarily intonned on current topics af
fecting the interests' of the submeiged brother; It
_ v matteis not . that, we are unable to agree-witir"all
his deductions we recommend ..".Calvin s Digest a.being

may be just as profitably Compiled into a scrap
book, but it is of Calvin that we now speak.
'Last week Calvin discussed a subject of genuine
^importance. *^0. often 'penile in all walks of lift
feel tftat only their opinions are tu i?. heTTr 1
and that any person deigning to differ from their
infallible judgments is "prima facie" inimical to
them in every regard. If we differ in religion
?there ran be no rapport between u? m polm.'V. '.in''
soeis.l life,- nor in anything. Of eour.se this should
not be true but it usually is. We have as y?t not
learned to leave our lodge problems in thy lojye"
rooms; our church problems in the chiiieh:" om- f?e>
ily prcblems in the .home, let cetera.Mr. Calvin
tells us that there is one class of persons' who re
main friendly regardless* of the 'fiumber of brick
bate they Hing at uaili inliUI IT,tMV Hie 'bur '
nfli-ts.
Every once in awhile some sentimentalist break
down ar-.d bemoans the tendency, on the pait of ?n>
pen-pushers to attack each othe-r w.lu-n thev lind ut
terances that smack of asininit-y ? and- mibecilu\
emanating from their work-shops. 'Ihat. these at
tacks are made in good faith and without spleen
means .nothing' to our "peace at?any pricy"-frk*nrt?
They would have nplhing but . back patters amoiia
the quill movers.
Calvin says: "There, is ?o much genuine good
.fellowship between Xegro. newspaper nu-n tlurt f
think it should be mentioned for the* benefit of the
public. . . .. Some of the men 1 s-ou'-tinn's

. POET KE1TT
^1 _ _ r
A privately published volume of poems by Kman
uel..Moses...KcitC,is..off the press. For some year? "
Mr. Keitt has been in great demand a- a reader or.
"public occasions. It is - collection, of the poems'
which he has read and a few additional poems that
fill the volume. The reason for having published
his poems is couched i? the Author's preface: . ,
. . . Since Cod has put irfto piy invisible hoiny
a poetical stream flowing from the' fountain of .nature's
joy I -hall makd a brave attempt satisfy
myself-fry answering nature's call.
"This-is my first to vo into print. 1 do'so. with"
the honest hope that the Present eonf7 m_
those''\f&tunborn may derive some benevfit froin
my work." _ ,r ..
The volume c(.ntains forty-six poems, most of
which are intended to be dialectic f*nd humorous.
Any effort made by a Negro tfr utilize the mater
ial ground him for literary purposes we should
duly appreciate. Most of the work's dealing with
Negro life have been written by white literary figures.
Negroes have lived the experiences, but *
? white authors have ridden to fame and cash by
acting' as their amannenses?writing /lojpn "what
the Negro says. Now that Mr. Keitt has seen his
work dignifter) hv hieng embalmed in piinloi's inl ~
,. end shrouded with book cover> he may be expected _
y?" to develop a style and technique that' may later
give us a volume df literary merit. The. hook i,dedicated
to the Author's mgrther. Recommondnk
tions are published by way of testimonial from
R. E. Grier. Assistant editor, The State; Prof. Z.
Townsend, Benedict College; and H. A. McCullough
