What is perhaps one of the most. significant ex periments in Negro education -in this eountry, is to be l'ound at .Sedalia, ' North Carolina. In Palmer Memorial Institute we find n type nt euhui-c adapted ? to rural life after a fashion unapproached anywhere in this country. Hitherto the emphasis on ^ Negro education has been decidely urban in its outlook and possibilities;' but at Palmer .'we have l something new?an attempt to adapt not only education to definite'rural needs but there is the inception of tin almost unicpie "rural culture, Th<Tc ~ is -nothing tlrab ,and col6rless about rural life if ic can be inoculated with the Palmer typo of edu- ( cation. The various buildings are erected after a t plan based upon the latest in landscape aichitec- ^ ture and the appointment of these buildings consti- i. cues the last word in aesthetics and utility. When an academic atmosphere is transplanted to a rural section,_as has been" done at Palmer, there is an ini- f] posing majesty surrounding the whole scheme of -j things. At Palmer those young men and women ,, are noc only given the essentials of practical art, such as rural life demands, but" they are given the | essentials of all culture. At Sedalia fine art parallel.. etieel ~ * ?_ ' icio uimuuii nri, mn iriosi pie proportions. ( Everything is done ""exactly right" at palmer, with ,, no allowance being nVade for the fact that Palmer ~ Memorial is a rural school. There is an air of '( dignity- nd culture in the manners and amenities of the life of the faculty. This faculty-m?one--of--y the most representative-to be found in any Negro ,, from somtwif the bcest Eastern universities, thevli from somfe of the best Eastern unicersities, they have a point of view that admirably adapts them r to the work at Palmer.*.If there is.a student group 1 a (* ? .

Some of the sculpture and paintiigs at Palmer have been appraised by eminen irtists and pronounced as ."noble in conception aiu vonderful in execution." It Would be worth what iver a trip might cost from almost anywhere, jus o see the mural decorations in Palmer Dining Hall They almost beggar description and theit cdnsum nation becomes more amazing when wc are re minded that they are "all Halmer" productions n other words, something wonderful is going on "al aim Srtdnl in" Through yp-sr? mr>rQ will h? icard irom tins unique experiment in Negro edu ation.
