' j lustrated Lecture on; the Ne- f '1
gro Problem
Under the auspices of the Young
Mfen's Christian "Association, Rev.
John Little, of Louisville, Ky., gave
an address on the conditions of the
n egro in the South', Wednesday n i gh t.
Desoite the disagreeable weather.
thjere were over 400 students, profess
ors and townspeople but to hear him.
Mr. Little illustrated1 his', address by
stereopticon' views. His strong and
masterly presenta tion ;, oif the .real con
ditions of, the; negro race in the South
hejld the attention of his audience from
the very beginning. 1 ' :
In his address Mr. Little presented
thje physical conditions of the negro
in the South, the influence religion; was
al -eady having and; could have upon
hi n, and his industrial developement.
He showed that the crowded" and
unsanitory conditions in the Southern
cities among the negroes were result
ing in diseases of all kinds. He as
cribed to these conditions also, in a
large measure, .the reason for low mor
als among the negroes. Under these
appallingvconditionsj Mr. Little said
thjat no individual and no race, wheth
er jwhite could make progress
toward ;a better life. ; He confined his
illjustraltions to the cities of Atlanta,
Ga., and. Louisville, but said that the
same conditions could be found in every
Southern city,, that they prevailed all
over the. South. He next presented
vifews of I changes that were wrought
by! . religion in Louisville. While a
student fat the Union Theological
Seminary, Mr. Little With a few other
student, started a mission and some
SUnday schools , among the negroes in
thjat city. He showed how these Sun
day Schools ahd his'mission work had
transformed the lives of the negroes in
to! better lives, and, how in turn they
wire seryjtjg their own race by teach
ing thjSr ?iMw to live cleaner and
better lives.
'Aside from the Sunday Schools and
mjssiori work, Mr. Little stressed the
industrial development of the negro.
He said that they readily learn how to
mkke their hands serve for . practical
purposes. ! He showed workshops - in
which negro boys were engaged; in
making iriariy useful things such as
tables, baskets etc. under the direction
of; white men. 'V -';
!He said? that the negro girls were
taught sewing, cooking and house
keeping by trained white women.
When they left these schools then,
they would teach others of their own
race how to sew and cook. ,
; Mr, -Little closed his address by pre
senting pictures of , someof , the men
aijd women who are working for the
betterment of the negro race, showing
thjat they are well trained, intelligent
add refined workers. His plea for the
negro, was for better physical, religr
ious and industrial training.
