C-4 1? i XT ? ??l.?_ to lOQQ OcllUI uaj y 11UVC1IIUCI ?&f OUR PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS Much importance is attached to the work of our private institution^ of learning. Those institutions that stood for centuries as pillars in-education-, - ami?whose leaders were the pioneers who, by sacriftcorblazed" the highways for the establishment of teSpectable" -programs of education that have had much to" dp with progress? social and economic?in America and" especially in the United Stat-j es. ' * I Professor J- Andrew Simmons of Booker Washington High school Columbia, was guest speakt* at Allen university last Wednesday In speaking of achievement and education Professor Simmons emphasized the place and the contribution made to American education has been made by the nrivate schools.?"TtTTfry way of think-" lng," said the speaker, "one of the flnejst contributions made to American education has been made by the nrivate schools". The "Leader" agrees with Profossor Simmons and wishes to add a few words. In the column of private " schools we place the denominational colleges. In this case 1 we interpret the* word private to modify all schools not included inthe system of public education, i and in America that which we re-! fer to and that which Americans may Doast of is of recant establishment?as so to speak. WKafT would we do without the private schools? What kind of civilization would we have if all oHnrfifi^n mid i*w..?yfVnir C 1 5 f were of a secular nature The private school is here for a long time yet. It is among our great-! est heritages and its work, in developing leaders of men who glo-| riously man our affairs and pilot the lfterary ships, cannot be estimated in dollars and cents. TheJ passing of the funds from the General Education Board will T)e at' set back to the private schools for av/hile. Some of the weaker schools in the system of private schools will eithor 50 out of business or be merged into a college system. Philanthropy is only an auxiliary any way regard less cf its help in making schools more efficiehti The private schools must now begin to look for more certain sources of roventfe. The people must be futly "sold" to the nOeds and "demands of these schools. __L Leaders in the private- schools will have to rebuild therr curricula and reconstruct their programs to meet the new trends in educa tion as the private schools move along in competition with the other schools that live and grow fat from -the flow of money which uurues w inem irom tne >stato and Federal funds through WPA and tax money. Again, back to the pornt emphasized so beautifully by Professor Simmons?"The private schools have made one of th<? finest contributions to American education." TREAT YOUR DOLLARS RICTTT 1 , In nearly all of oar_aturea-an4 ?business "concerns in Columbia nd other cities in South Carolina j we find.a few jobs ht44 by Negroes. They are working as deliF??~~ ?"" | very men, truckers, porters, jani| tors, hotel waiters and in some | places Negroes clerk in stores owned and run ,by white pec pie. We think that Negroes should, go out of the way in instances mentioned above to spend some of their money wrth these firms that advertise in Negro newspa-' pers and are careful about giving Negroes employment in their places of business. In giving a job I the entrepreneur is putting bread 1 and meat in the mouths of Negro 1 families. Clothes and shoes pro- ' vided for and the economic wel- 1 IU1V Ui vi?tf vviiiuiuiiivjr uuu ov/vitvj in general made better. We do not pretend to dictate ! to the spender. A man is enti-_ tied to spend his money where he j pleases and with whom he pleases But, it seems to us, that common sense, if nothing else, would com-- ( pel us to be grateful to the extent that we would show our approcia- | tion to those who make jobs for our people. We should pool nur mnnPirV inrl i organize for the development of big business, which would add in giving more employment to our ' people. Why we do not have more business concerns operated by Ne- J groes is the subject of debate by Negro leaders everywhere. But , Lhat^ is about all. Nothing of a concrete nature is being -done. 1 Since we seem not to havc^" the ^ business channels?why not treat 1 our dollars right? i ^ a i ' THE TEACHERS' ECONOMIC^ In the Negro schools of South t^aroTiha"are employed about 4,000 teachers?stating it rn round num bers. Reference is made hore to our teaching population to call at- 1 tention to tne fact that teachers in Negro schools in South Caro- i lina do not subscribe to and pay for Norr" npwqpnporg The records in the office of The Palmetti Leader disclose the fact that we have only a few hundred subscribers who pay their subscrip Hons to The Palmetto Leader. In South Carolina, The Palmetto Lea" dor is the best advertising medium 1 for spVmrdc an4 ^-K?n4in<! Woop 1 their activities before-the reading " nublic. The Palmetto Leader gives 1 more than 50 per cent of itsjspace ; weekly. to publication of school and church news?and gladly so do we give this space: If 2,000 of the 4,000 teachers i would put in their annual budgets 1 an annual subscription for The Palmetto Leader that would make a substantial increase m our cir- , culation-and im.doing Mrwould in- j crease the Volume of revenue from the ad department^of the"paper. We go a otcp further to?say that it is the Negro newspaper that preaches a doctrine of improved salary schedules and more remuneration for teachers from the tax funds. In return the teachers mrght reciprocate not only by sending in a subscription but, in addition, get a few of their substantial patrons to send in a paid up subscription. The Palmetto Leader has a brg subscription list among Negro ministers. The ministers, occasionally, send in some subscriptions from their ci>uiclienr~The ininrstcis furnish""ST nice volume of business that helps to keep the job presses running in The Hampton Publishing Company's press room.
