ing their early yeSts. The Daisy Scarborrough home proposes to
take the children whose parents are forced to leave them istone
while they w(>rk, and care for thgm^or the smaH sum of five
cents a day. Certainly such an etfort is destined, to lower the
percentages of incorfigibles in our city, and should be supported.
This newspaper is glad to commend the founder of the home
and such a benefactor of hisT'ellowmen as J. C. Scarborrough, Sr.
who has been so thoughtful to establish the home as well as deed
it lairge ,prap4?rties so as to ma^e it capable of carrying on, the
good work of saving Negro youths. The state ought not to force
the institution, as it has been doing, to give part of the income
from its properties to it for taxes. It should at least follow the
example set by the federal government and exempt the home
from paying taxes. ,
