If there wtre no c;her re a sen

from our race problem. The proprouct

exceed 20 per cent. We must tram
the negro the more .Ignorant he is
the greater the burden on the South
but at best, the process will be slaw,
and at present it would probably n-t
be too much to say tihat in co-nsio.tr-ing
our wholje papula tlcn. ineluumg
our ereat constructive leaders ana
captains of industry, the average
negro in North Carolina in econom c
worh and efficiency is one nat
as useful as the average white man.
In other words, in rating average or
efficiencv we should put the finite
man at 100 and tfie negro at 50, so
that a country half white and half
negro would have an average effici
ency of 75 or a handicap of 25 per
cent as compared with a county with
an exclusive white population of anor
mal desree of efficiency.
Wheather or not tihe difference is
certain it is that the larger the
proportion of whites, the higher tne
average cf efficiency, the mere pros
perous will be our every kidusl y.and
the better it will be for every indi
vidual citizen, including the negroes
themselves.
Two Ways to Build up North
Carolina.
There are just two ways to bun.a
up North Carolina. First and of pa
ramount importance is the way which
Govener Ay cock emphasized unceas
inglv in his admin strati on the Edu
cation of all our people; and I should
only supplement this by putting mere
earnest emphasis upon practical' edu
cation, education suited to the gre-it
urban centers cf Europe and the
Vr-rrb but education suited to the
nocio rf c jrrp.Mt awakei-na: agricui-
tural Commonwealth such as curs
is and must be.
And second only to education which
Governor Aycck emphasized is im
migratLcn which Govener .Glen.ru set
out to further, but to which fee state
did. not respond because it was
not made clear that the immigration
was to be cf the right sort.
4,000,000 Instead of 1,200,000 White
People.
New let us start riant not by see
king from Southern Europe, but by
advertising our resources to thrifty
farmers of the North and West men
of our own stock who only need an
invitiatsn to make theni coime. Emer
son was right when he said that ever
man who comes into a city withi
any purchaseable talent or skill in
hini gives to every mans' labor in
the city a new worth, "and if an igno
rant negro slave in the old days was
worth $1, 000, certainly Ave may as
sume that a thrifty and inteligent
white Westerner, bringing not only
himself, but in most cases subsa.ntkl
accumula.tions as well, should be wort
many t'mes as nueh as am, ass?t to
the State
1. 200,000 white people. It sh
ould
have 4, 000, 000. Consider for a moment
how much more active would be conn
would be, how much more important
every instution in the State would
be, how much more varied would be
our schools and roads and railroads,
much more attractive would be coun
try lllfe in our thickly settled places
and how much easier it would be to
get telephones and waterworks and
trcllejr lines and local libraries and
all the advaaiatges of twentieth cen
tury life.
Let us take as our watch word
Education and immigration Both
of the right sort.
A Drea'ms of North Carolina'sFuture.
For seventy years now North Caro
linians have been going West to
build up the new States of that
great empire. Now let u welcome
their children and neighbors to help
us build here a great) prosperous and
populous Commonw'ealfth, where the
masses of the peopled trained to as
high standards cf efficiency as any
where in the world, shall develop a
izatilon; a splendid and forceful dem
ocracy of trained, iinteligent and
thrifty homeownsers fxicjm among whoi

already hoarse and frayed, in favor of

information nn all possible subjects.

He made the name of private citizen &
badge of distinction.
As to the nam1 er of kinjrs he gath
ered in his collection of specimens it
is impossible to be numerically exact,
but to the best of my recollection
he bagged them all except Nicholas
of Russia and Alfonso of Spain. Per
haps he overlooked them in the rush.
But with these two possible excep
tions he saw everything and every
body worth seeing, went through
Europe with an express train force
that gave the effete monarchies nerv
ous prostration, took the degree of
LL. D. at Cambridge, propelled words
of advice like a human Gatling gun
and made John Bull apoplectic by ad
rising him either to govern Egypt or
get out.
Cannot Escape Publicity.
It is a great thing to be president of
the United States. It is greater to be
as big a man outside the presidency as
in it. Some ex-presidents 'have raised
chickens, some have become college
lecturers or business men, some have
been elected to congress, and some
have gone into innocuous desuetude.
Only one has become a faunal natural
ist and the big noise of two hemi
spheres. There is none like him; none
ever was or ever will be. It is im
possible that there should be anoth
er like him in this land or any other
beside the seven seas.
Colonel Roosevelt went to Africa to
escape publicity. Did he escape it?
Is it possible that he should escape it
anywhere? When he is absent people
wonder what he is doing. When he
is present they wonder what he will
do next, There is no keeping such a
man out of the newspapers. If he
were to hunt for the south pole his
every move would be chronicled. If
he were to live in Zululand, in China
or in Hoboken it would be the same.
The reporters would find him out, and
if they did not find him out they would
write about him anyway. Roosevelt
is a front page character. Tidings of
him run as naturally to display type
as the river flows to the ocean or the
sparks fly upward.
Nobody knows how far he has trav
eled since he left us, but he has cov
ered a considerable portion of two con
tinents. He has not been as great a
traveler as his successor, but has prob
ably enjoyed it more. He has been
over the least civilized and most civ
ilized parts of the globe and has been
equally at home in both. He has gone
from the virgin jungle to the ancient
pyramids where Napoleon said "forty
centuries look down upon us." He has
;yc S vxxi::.;:: :.
ridden a camei in Egypt, listened to t
the riddle of the sphinx and been met
by racing boat loads of American re
porters on the waters of the Nile. He
has talked volubly, explosively and en
thusiastically from Mombasa to Chris
tiania and from Cairo to London.
It was on March 23. 1009, that
Coior:o! Roosevelt left New York by
the steamer Hamburg P-und for the
! dark .continent. On board b? made
I himself most popular with the other
I passengers by his democratic and uu-
rssuming demeanor and friendliness.
I He touched at Gibraltar and Messina

formal receptions be eliminated, as he
traveled only as a private citizen. In

the king of Italy and was touched by

which he accepted as a token of their
thankfulness for the American relief
work following the great earthquake.
The one thought he expressed at this
demonstration was pride in being an
American and in standing for the time
as the symbol of the country that had
helped these people in their calamity.
X!i3 Game Bag In Africa.
The expedition landed on the coast
of Africa at Mombasa and proceeded
inland to Nairobi, where it estab
lished its base. On the trip up it is
narrated that the colonel rode on the
pilot of the engine. Hiding on the
pilot is no uncommon occurrence in
Africa, though not practiced much in
America, for the reason that it causes
one to collide too violently with the
atmosphere. In the Roosevelt party
were Kermit, the son and ostensible
photographer, although in the end he
proved a batter rifle shot than his
father; R. J. Cuninghame, a mighty
English hunter, who went along be
cause of his knowledge of the game
and of the country; Major Edgar A.
Mearns, J. Alden Loring and Edmund
Heller, representing the Smithsonian
institution, and a small army of na
tives. The party took several trips
out from Nairobi and shot enough
game to make the Smithsonian insti
tution look like a petrified section of
Africa transplanted to the banks of j
the Potomac.
After making the game scarce in all
the available hunting grounds about

The Cdd Ecdice Cool
For Summer Days.
SIMF-IiE I-INGEKIE BLOUSE.
Though by no means occupying the
first place of interest, the odd bodice
is still a very important adjunct to a
comfortable wTardrobe.
It is absolutely required for the
street suit of coat and skirt, and fash
ion requires that the smart bodice
match the gown material in color and
be made with the utmost care.
White waists are plentiful, materials
in these ranging from the coarsest
linen to the most diaphanous nets,
laces and gauzes, yet even these
charming garments, while gaining
prestige, fail ha the elegance that the
gown colored waist will give.
Thin stuffs are the favorite for this
waist, such fragile textures as chiffon,
crepe de chine and net being used, the
garment showing what may be dubbed
a tailored finish.
A decided feature with the new
waists on shirt waist lines is the hori
zontal trimming, this being shaped
with bands of lace or embroidery be
tween tucks.
Such up and down lines replace the
yoke effects to a great degree, and as
they induce the slim look still required
for ail raiment these trimmings are
likely to have great vogue.
For all waists, whether practical or
fine, the belt is a needed detail, and
since the beaded and plain rubber ones
fit any figure and hold tbe waist snug
ly they are in great demand, exquisite
ones in evening shades appearing as
frequently as the graver day effects.
Tbe wide, soft ribbon or bias of vet
vet that fastens with a jaunty bow or
rich buckle of some sort is the species
of girdling most used, however, tor
the dressier waist, and there is no end
to the pretty possibilities of this style.
Extreme Fashions.
It is to be boped girls who belong
to the business world will uot adopt
extreme styles of clotnes for wear dur
ing office hours. For example, how
ever pretty the square or round
"Dutch" necks may be, they are en
tirely inappropriate for wear in an of
fice. And if Dame Grundy does not
approve of these for working hours
how much more sternly must she
frown upon the exaggerations of the
style that are sometimes seen, when
the Dutch becomes almost decollete,
so much blow the throat line is it em
To tell the truth, no girl oi refiuen;ea;
would wear one of these extreme mo-'
els in the street. She knows that sue
an exposure of neck is suitable onl.
for the house. a?:d her sense of fitnes
of things would be sadly jarred at ap
pea ring so gowned elsewhere.
The girl who goes downtown to busi
ness must dress conservatively unless
she wishes ro be seriously misjudged,
for. though she may only be called
silly because of the fashions that sht
adopts, it is far nicer to be treated
with dignified consideration than u
be the butt for office jests.
It must not be thought that because
girls work in oliices they are not rc
have the pleasure of wearing soft and
dainty articles. The fact that they do
work should make it possible for tberr
to buy pretty dress accessories, but the
time to wear them is not in othct
hours. They have evenings and Sun
days to wear fripperies and to -dress."
Conservatism in dress for business
hours does not mean unattractivenes?
or dowdiness. On the contrary, noth
ing is more becoming and smarter than
a plain frock immaculately clean, well
put together and worn with distinc
tion. A girl so attired attracts desira
ble attention by her air of good breed
ing and style.
The Sunbonnet Babies.
The newest in china dishes for chil
dren's use are the sunbonnet designs.
The pictures of the little sun bonnets
are familiar to us. though no one has
ever caught a glimpse of the faces be
neath. Neither are they revealed ou
the cups, plates, etc.. but the pictures
are there in all their bright colorings,
and the little figures will. I am sure,
be pleasing to the youngsters using
them.
