NEGRO BUSINESS
By K. A. FishUiutie
Morris College. Sumter, S. C.
One oN^the crying needs of oui
race today, is business, and usrtie
a specific term, Negro Business
No sane person will ignore 01
overlook the great importance ol
this phase of the social-life of thi
nation. To realize the inestimable
value of business let one tako ;
retrospective view of the year l'J'Jt
\vlien the almost universal wheel?
'.of industry ccasbd for a perioc
the humming revolutions' and
what happened. ,
The nation cannot soon forge I
this economic crisis. Hunger,^uf

; i uncertain terms... Utiemploy
lit swept over our country lik<
,i.i angry flood and a devouring
storm, destroying everything i'l
th if wakes', all because'busines
stood still for awhile. !.
I. Generally speaking, we need t(
keep the .wheels of 1nisme:s <
tir.uously spinning to satisfy tin
the demands of 128,000,000 peoj J.
of,this' country of ours. However
\v hffe We need sufficient busily

not necessarily mean tha
tin' Negro is being given his e<iua
share in'.particular. We must pi'o
duee Negro business and more o
it. Those which ,-nre nrtiv operat

er and larger basis. The time ha
now, come for us to do for our
selves. We must not always 1m

rium on Saturday, lGth. Ij
Che tca-.Ters were honored hy *)
: the presence- of Mr. Seymour Carroll
of the Humane Education sc- ]
ciety. Mr. Carroll delivered a very *1
'
instructive, and inspiring address *j
j, stressing the importance , of h'J- ]
mane education, in our schools. As .j
I a rcorescntative of educational *1

ed numbers of teachers magazines ;
^ and a variety of school literature.^

- association, gave a very interest
ing report of h^r work at Beikc
- diet-Allen Summer, school." - 1 .
i ?r* :?-*?
* ing? Are there any (daces pro*]
pared for them? Walking through
L' a very large 5 and 10c store in
1 a certain city once, on my way
out" my attention was attracted
" to the activities of the large num
f ber of young white ladies?clerks.
. and the question came to my mind
. Where are the young Negro .gh ls ?
What are they doing? Are there
. sufficient Negro business.,If) give
them employment? Tiw'cry of today
is Negro businosp; Jobs must
- be provided for the Negro youths
i and for the race in general.
What Negro business we have.
;|ai)ioriR us today, some of whicli'
s arc not what theyshoiild bo. Many >.
*- ? ! most of .them aio not 5xTTTng~i
? flu* patronage That tKey" sluJuTtT *
? yet front the race. The NeRro *
V must build up his owii business
places. It* -ho does n<*t, nobody |
i' else will. j i
While I-.^ill ad^iil that NeRro'*
f business is not V^ttinu' tho pa-1*
tronaRe it should'Ret, on tho. other
" hand. NeRro business men and nvj?. .
nun must . leaiifto do certain "
i tilings, in the first place,. courtesy :
must be exemplified. XeRl'o iiior-j.j
."hunt's* and business men must beO
.o n tci>11 s to th--ir patrons. This j
act plays a very laiRe part in'the *j
prosperity of colored business. !
Sometimes people ro to certain .j
places to tran act their business, j *j
not solely because the Roods are |l
so .Rood and cannot lie Rotten any' *j
vvheiv el.-e, hu.t'because of the po-' *
... i
Iiteness and courtesy shown tlieni ?:
?. by their busine-s dealer^. j !|
ri secondly, .Nc.'ni business nun
I . , , . I
must bain to be prompt in serv-j"-*
ing their patrons. This one fault
.among Negro'business has been-a*.
great setback; and a great loss.i]
Many Negroes don't patronize Ne *
, gro busitn-s because they don't,*
r get piom|U->Tvvi es. This day callsj
for quick action. Why should li!
have to wait two or three days, toi'
get it suit cleaned when I can get *
it in one day. ' *
Thirdly. N.gro buiness melt
not generally speaking, however.
must quit being so i&rsonal with
their colored patrons. They don't
want to Ik- questioned about their
private and personal affairs. This
state of affairs has driven many
a customer away from the Negro
business man. I went to a colored
drug -tore once" to buy so mi
I medicine. I handed the druggist
la one dollar hill to take out his *
change for the medicine and he J
- w;mt< <1 to know what 1 was doing!,
with a whole dollar hill at that'\
time of the week. 1 went to getj*
what I wanted and not to he ask
ed about how much and what 1 j .
I had. .
I Some melons must he introdue- *
ed whereby Negro business men *!
can sell their goods for the same
amounts that can be bought any .
where else. People are going to I
buy where, they can get the same,*
quality goods for the samrte prices
obtainable anywhere. They are not
going to buy goods at a certain
price at one i)lace when they ian *
get it cheaper at another place. *
This may seem to be a hard thing
for Negro merchants and business .
men, 1/ut they must -learn it. |
Negro patrons must eliminate *
prejudices, hatred, distrust, an I
non-strppT?rt on their part's against
the ir race" business leaders if they I!
are going to " create"- and build bet- y
ter, bigger and more efficient bus- *;
