Without all the returns in yet from its Christmas doll sale, the Haile club has realized $400, and it is probable that this will be considerably increas- ed, making this the most successful event in the way of sales that the club has held. By a number of good sized gifts recently received by the club from Norwich people, it is becoming apparent that the people of the city are beginning to realize the real and wonderful work it is doing, giving Norwich reason to feel proud of this club, which is held all over the coun- try as a model of successful work for girls. Three basketball teams are among the new activities with which the Haile club starts the year. No great expertness in the sport has been de- veloped vet, but the girls are prac- ticing hard and learning the game fast. To make accommodations for a large cooking class that is to start, two class rooms are to be thrown info one on the third floor of the buliding and tiere is a large junior dancing class to begin the season.

EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION AT GRACE MEMORIAL CHURCH. Addresses by Rev. Dr. Eley and Rev. Walter Gay, Pastor. Grace Memorial Baptist church held an_enthusiastic gathering on Monday evening for the emancipation celebra- tlon, of which Willlam Fields was master of ceremonies. There was a programme of musical numbers, and addresses were made by Rev. W. H. Eley, D. D, pastor of the McKinley Avenue A.'M. E. Zion church, and Rav. Wa'ter Gay, pastor of the Grace Memorial Baptist church. Both the speakers were very instructive and sald much to encourage the colored citizens to make good along all lines. Rev. Mr. Gay said that the colored race, from the act of emancipation has entered upon an era of progress uunprecedented in the annals of the world. In education we have steadily decreased the llliteracy until it is about 49 per cent., and this in spite of the great disadvantages under which we labor. Refinement follows educa- tion, and in the home of the negro you find many evidences of the high- est_refinement. Wealth is also evident in a large de- gree in the race. The farms of negroes if jolned together would amount to a section much larger than the Nev Englanq states. If the same valuation was put on property owned by negroes as upon that of other races, it would Teach to over a billion dollars. In the professions the race has made rapid strides. Some of the prominent doctors are colored men. have to meet every call and to deal with the facts in all cases like lawyers of any other people. They are on hand if you need them, if you have the dough. There are preachers and theologians without number trying to save the souls of each member of the race. ‘There are also authors and newspaper men doing great service in lifting up the race. Fducators are toiling to bring out ideas that our children may discover their talents. In the commercial world ing a prominent place. ‘arious the enterprises in which the race aged.

Drug and grocery stores nd in fact all kinds of stores conducted by members of the race. o are tak- the arts and sciences you can find groés contending and solving great problems like other men. Rut you say if the race has made such commendable progress, why com- plain? My answer Is that there ls higher ground for all people, and we are not to content ourselves with what r fathers have done. We must say wat if our fathers succeeded in doing much in their age, and under the ad- verse conditions, we ought and we shall do greater things. We have greater opportunities than they had, and to be contented with doing what our fathers did would show that we are not as determined as they were. We must not fear and falter.
