K. It. Dullols, ? editor nf tin' CrlclH, a leadin;* mm:* azlne of and for tli?- colored race. 'told an audience at commencement j'XiTPiwi at the Stati' Normal .School Friday itlglii. at which a class of 21 prospective teachers was graduated. l)i. Dultois wan introduced l?y N. C. N? \v!???I?I of Kaleiuh. director of ni ero education in North faro ? lina. as a distinguished citizen or 'tills country, and belter qualified ,to talk on the subject In hand - !the negro and his destiny? than any other speaker in America or 'elsewhere. j Beginning with a declaration Ithat, while he was in school. In did not remember a single lesson informing him that colored people icver had done anything worth while, the speaker declared he I never questioned the ability of the rare to do things, hut assumed 11hat for some reason they never 'had done things worth while. ! Hearing Paul Laurence Dunbar, jthe great negro poet, gave Dr. Du : Hois his first realization Dial tie* Igroes were doing things worth j while, lie said. Then he began to teach history, and one day lie (heard a professor deliver a lec ture on the accomplishments of the race, talking- of things utter ly unknown to himself, and cover ing a period of 2.000 years. Say* No l^ure Ilace* | "There are no pure races In the world," he declared. "The blood .of all races has been minub-d from jthe earliest times. There are dif ferences. of course, but no sharplv cut-boundaries. Hence, when I ?speak of the African rac^. I am ,using a relative term, but am ap plying Ir to the darker peoples of Africa." Beginning with the dawn of hu manity. I)r. Dultois pointed out that the dark men went Into Afri ca, and civilization started there. He cited the first utilization of iron as of Immense Importance in the development of civilization, ideclaring that occurred there, land stated that cloth was export cd from Africa before England knew what cloth was. He touched also upon the artistic beauty of lnative African villages In Liberia, with a singular restraint as to 'color. and declared the sculpture of the modern world had devel oped from that of the Africans In tile Middle Ages. Touching upon the great Indi viduals that have come out of the colored race, the speaker first mentioned the queen Nepotare. who led a terrible revolt In Kay pi. thereby overturning the dym<sty in power and giving the laud that line of rulers which was respoi.s ible for the Temple of Luxor and other magnificent art and architec ture. "The sculptures never show her except as a black woman." he declared. Mentioning the Arabian Nights, with which the modern occidental world is entirely familiar, he staled that another group of tab s centered about a negro character, and these were even more popular in the Kant In earlier centuries than, (lie tales of the thousand and one flights He also cited a great negro empire which flourished on the shores of the Mediterranean In the fourteenth century. Pushkin, founder of Itussian literature, had a full blooded ne gro for a grandslre. Dr. pullolx declared, adding that every one knew of the wrlllnuH of Alexan der Dumas, "the king of modern fiction." and a negro. The Negro and the South The great agricultural develop ment of the South was ascribed by the speaker largely to the work of the colored slaves in the col* ion, tobacco, sugar and rice field* He declared there must have been 10.000 negroes in America early in Ine sixteenth century, clearing the wilderness and helping ?'? found states and cilia", and de scribed the travels of a negro wh.? headed a party that dlscov.id New Mexico and Arizona. Dr. Dnltols told the story of Mi* colored refugees from Santo Do mingo who restored the lost art of making sugar in Lou I sin n ? when that State had grown no su gar In 2f? years, the secret having vanished In fighting betwpefi *ho French and Spaniards "No whe? 1 thit turns |s not Indebted to Eli jah McCoy, who sllll lives In D? troH," he declared, mentioning that McCoy, n negro, had d*vel-| oped modern principle* of liibrl-? cation.
