It is that negro lenders a tion of the riices 'n public carriers in the JJoUth and en deavoring to have the railroad administration take cog nizanec of the matter. y One element of the criticism and comfluint launched against the "Jim Crow" car is warrantejf That is the poor accomodations that ure, ar a rule, provided for th negro. The Free Press believes that the railroads shoul unquestionably be required to provide cjmfjurtabli! car and adequate seating lor the negroes, wljp pay the sam rare that is exacted of the white passengers. Legal pro vision for this is made in the southern states where the "Jim Crw" laws tro in effect but there tt a laxity in its enforcement that justifies complaint from the black man The elimination of separate cars, however, is entirely a different matter. It is not one to bo-docided by mis 4- guided a'ld misinformed agitators of theJorth. One may ri.'e for days in the North, where there js no "Jim Crow' law and come in contact with but few negroes. Not so in the South. They crowd every train. The "Jim Crow laws are based on principles that are;ound. They are not simpiy the outgrowth of race prejudice as some northern sympathizers suppose. f The "Jim Crow'' laws should be enforced to guaran tee to the negro that he is accorded fast treatment and what he nuyj for, but their repeal wfll never 1o toler- f1 ated so long as the purest Anglo-Saxon blood in. Ameri ca flows in the veins of southern nierYflnd women. The southerner believes in fair play for tne negro and will accord him just treatment if not provoked to do other wise by meddlers from other sections, j EDUCATION OK CUTTER OF fJOL.. The cal' of the jx'hools was never more timely for the youth of tho land, than it is to-daw The coming of peace and reconstruction opens doors jpf opportunity to the young man and the young woman never before dreamed of. Problems are already confronted that sum mon master minds for their solution. The larger (iuos lions, as th':y emerge from a world fcbyrinth, will un .question ibiy engage the attention of uaincd minds to f greater proportion in the future than iai tho past. Thcr.) are conspicuous example of successful careers, which had r.o college beginning. They, are comparative ly few, however, Mid such careers are on a descending rather than ascending .scale. Men and women who have taken leading phices in life without tho benefit of college training, have been unusual characters and only through diligent application and self education have they attained their positions. What might their successes have been had they enjoyed the college preparation? t Tho University of North Carolina, through display ad vertising, is bringing this important thattor to the at lention of the young men of the State and is urging those who entered in the Students Army Twining Corps, to continue their studies even though thejCJovernment's ap propriation for their maintenance has! been withdrawn. This call should lo very thoughtfully considered by both father and r.on. I The young man can enter co.mmer$)ai and industrial pursuits now, perhaps, more easily ai at better initial pay than, over before. Unfortunate, however, if ho yields to such present, opportunities which ijjf necessity must bring home to him in the futuro the sfern realization of his limitations. Life's most outstanding successes are not the men who started with the lartfest salaries. Kx- ly to tho contrary, fow who thus make their start ever nee iieycul the average humdrum existence. acly nip-ar 1,40 BLIND TIGERS, SIX SECOI (Hy E. H.
