DK. JAMES HARDY DILL ARl)
* Dr. Janies H. Dillurd died at
frhs?home?in?Charlottesville,?VaT
lust week. He was in his 8drd
year. ?
Very few white men of the
a v South have done mbre for racial
^betterment, to create a philosophj
of good will that is fundamental
and to place Negro education on
u more fundamental basis than
James- Hardjr Dillard. Through
the untiring efforts of Dr, Dillard
We' tTaVe the Jeanes Super'V isors
of Negro schools and the State
Agent of Negro schools in four?teen
states. Dr. Dillard "\tas instrumental
in establishing the
Southern University Race Commission;
was director and president
of the John F. Slater Fund
--and-also?headed the- Anna T~.
Jeanes Foundation and the Phelps
Stokes Fund. A group of Negro
colleges of New Orleans merged
a few years ago and named the
amalgamated .institution Dillard
University. .
Dr. Dillard's picture hangs on
+ the wall of fame as one of oup
great Americans by the side of
George \J'asHington and Booker
T. Washington?all noted sires qf
the commonwealth of the "Old
Dominion." Their spirts will live
ort to gOide unborn generations
in the right direction.
COOPER ATI V E MOV EM F.NT
IN EDUCATION
Many citizens feel that our-^rrc
gram of education is a failure,
and they seem to base their rea_
soning on the fyct.that there arv
too many misfits coming out from
r?nl)l>f?r.u n r>.) ?!'"< 1 1 11
aim, a ISO, UL-Ciuetuy lOO
many ed uen tod?pioplc without "
jobs.
It is important that education
be made more realistic. We believe
in the "cooperative unions';
and glory in what the cooperative
moveVnent has done for Amencat
business and a large number ol
under-privileged people.
We venture the assertion that
a cooperative movement in education,
rightly established am
allowed to function with honest
methods, will go a long way in
solving manyo x?f th^ pe^p!ejemg-,
problems which' confront Negro
V- colleges In South Carolina.
We hhve the clubs and units
in our church organization. In all 1
Negro churches in the South ar? '
more than 300,000 members. Thru 1
the cooperative movement in a
program of education, we can i
train these people to give 10c a <
month for a general fund?Tor ed I
ucation. There would be anr at i
lowance of 20 cents per .cap.ita for
running expenses. The {movement '
would net $300,000 yearly foi
Benedict, Allen, Claflin and Morris.
On membership bases pro- 1
rated to the colleges, each would i
have from $50,000 to $80,000 annual
income in addition to th? i
student fees, etc. The said col- i
leges would have a planned pro <
gram for improvements in salar i
;ies, library facilities and physical
plant.
The plan is much easier than i
, , i
ho old, obsolete...Wothod support-1
d by a~-fiiy. The plan calls fori
in intensive program of educa-1
;ion on the part of our Neg'o
lolleges.
The "ordinary" citizen is asking
this question in his thinking
VVJiat can the schools do to improve
the economic world in which
we live?

Bowman, S. J. Johnson and K. A
Young After devotions with ap
propriate words Rev. Bowman
presented the P. E. Rev. O. C
Dunham to the Convention, who
rose and made a speech of his
life. Among the many things he
said, he came as a big brother,
with no whips and lashes and he
was interested in the smallest,
Mission as well as the largest
Station. He fnHlw.i- w.i.l t I...
was 100 uer cent behind the ad

mg as never before. No more JJgure
heads, no more sweetening i
-the reality has cbine, the first
time in the history of the district
that the District Supt. was given
power to preside over the Coin en
tion during its session. Prof. H.H
Rikard one of the old teachers o!
Newberry County, who is .the Dis '
trict Supt. presided with no con- j
tradiction whatsoever. The P. E
was well pleesyd?with his .-prueedure.
Sometimes things wore very
high and discussions grew hot
but he took "hold, of the reins and
cooled things down.

strong spiritual sermon, and at

us food for thoar'i'.
Visitors, Among the many visTrbis"
were Rev-. Cooper from tia.,

The Convention was graced with
addresses from all of them.
Dr. Higgins stirred the Conventual?as
' nevar. before. Prrrr
Garrett spoke on the Condition
of the Church in general. Rev
Butler spoke on development of
human minds. At the close of
the Convention Rev. Bowman
read a resolution and the P. F
extended to the Convention his
most hearty thanks for the way
the ministers and laymen supported
the meeting. Rev. Bow
man made a motion,, seconded by
Rev. J. S M.artin that all officer*
be re-elected not otherwise pro
vided for. The next session of
the Convention was left for tlu
r. r?. 10 decide. it was said by
many that the district has taken
>n new life and with this man of
God, who thus far has lead the
district forward, we predict that
with the assistance of the men
and women who constitute both
the Sunday School and I.dagu
workers, there is no failure and
our motto is Go Forwatd.

TRINITY A. M. K. CHURCH ^
Spartanburg, S. C.?The pastor
ami members are sparing no paint
in tiho attempt to once more bring
this church built by the sweat and
prayers of "the fathers( who now
sleep, to the front. Not withstanding
the oppositions and burdens
under which the pastor works,
with the cooperation of the officers.
Trinity marches on! By the
help of God, in a few days, good
news will be releaesd and this
church which has borne her burdens
lo these many years, will hold
high the flag of African Methodism.
