T he barbecue was inaugurated last year as the annual banquet to the fresh men and has now become a para graph in the regular history of the college. is the tendency transformed It is at this barbecue that all class differences cease, time honored en mity into general good-fellowship and the memory of defeat becomes one as of long stand ing. T he barbecue marks an epoch in the social life of the college so far as it pertains to the two lower classes, and has to abate the spirit of rivalry which has had a marked effect in tabooing all higher institutions of learning ever since Heidelberg was in its infancy. It is to be hoped that the barbecue may g r ow not only in the amount of ox sandwiches and cider served but in its varied usefulness as well. the records we do not find mention of any previous general convocation, of the student in body either formal or informal augurated for a similar purpose and although this is an innovation at M. A. C. it is one the success of which is rarely equalled.

He cently attended the meeting of the American Forcing House Veget able G r o w e r s' Association at this place. its spread into other T he talk was opened with a sur vey of the origin of the greenhouse industry at Grand Rapids, Mich., and states. About twenty-five years ago a M r. Davis of this city noticed that one lettuce plant was different from the others. He seed and saved the planted it the next year, covering frame the young plants with cold sash, which increased the curly like character of the leaves. T h en he tried the experiment of building a rude lettuce house, which was very second year he successful. T he the Grand Rapids market. flooded Inquiries soon Mtne t. , ;i More people went into the business at Grand Rapids, selling their pro and ducts southward. All this time improve ments in greenhouse construction were constantly being made. T he southern farmer, however, began to help supply the market. Toledo soon came into prominence with seven acres covered by glass. All this competition forced the Grand Rapids men to take up cauliflower, radishes, celery, tomatoes and cu cumbers. T h u s we have the origin of vegetable forcing. in Toledo, Cincinnati in for is on At Ashtabula there are five or six hundred acres of land especially fitted for vegetables. T h is fact and the fact the that Ashtabula main line of L. S. & M. S. railroad prompted the starting of the green house industry at this place. T h e re are now about 60 acres under glass. It consists of one continuous glass roof, under which are g r o wn acres of cauliflower, tomatoes and other vegetables. T he tomatoes are trained to stakes 10 to 12 feet high and are fruited to the base. T h ey are all hand pollin ated. It is a sight to see acre after acre of them. Ashtabula industry at W h en the first crop of lettuce is taken off, celery comes on. After this comes cucumbers, then toma toes. T h e re is no overlapping. the center of is the the present vegetable time. It is now a question whether other places will be able to compete with the them. T he purpose of meeting at Ashtabula was to discuss some of these vital points, and to try and learn the methods of the Ashtabula people. (Continued on page 2.) P R E S I D E NT ANGELL R E T I R E S. President Angell's official retire ment from the presidency of Mich the igan's state university marks close of an era, not alone in the history of the University of Mich igan, but in the history of American education as well. His years of service have bridged the gap be tween the old and the new in the twiddle W e s t. He came to his life work at Michigan in his prime, when the success or failure of the revolutionary idea of education by the state was still unsettled and Michigan was almost the only effect ive representative of the " P r u s s i a n" idea In the four decades of Dr. Angell's service the state universities have become as effective as the privately endowed institutions, and they are entering equally with others upon the limits of an era of expansion hich no one can foresee.

PROGRESS OF EDUCATION IN J A P A N. BY ARAO ITANO. " T he Progress of J a p a n" is the great feature in the world today, rapidity. Of and suggests great course, this progress means educa tional progress as well as material. In order to show the progress I have to go back to the history of education. In general, Japanese into education may be divided two eras, which we might call "old" and "new." By "old" I mean the edu cation which existed during the years from 660 13. C. to 1S67 A. D., and " n e w" means since 1867 A. D. up to date. J u d g i ng from the strict meaning of education, the "old" one may not be called education, but let us admit it as such. In brief, the "old" edu cation was t he manufacture of human graphophones, while the " n e w" education (I proudlv call it education) fulfills the requirements of education in a verv modern sense. From the beginning of Japan's history, about 6^9 B. C up to 2S1 A . D. there were no letters or figures, and everything was told bv mouth to another. from one generation Therefore, no system of teaching could be found. In 671 A. D. the school was established and first began to send a few students over to China, which was supposed to be the most civilized countrv on earth, and located verv far west. About the same time the Chinese classics and paintings were introduced and exhibited in a small building. From that time until 1584, there was no remarkable progress, in .1=584 A. D. the art of wood printing was introduced. This gave a new- face to education and manv books were distributed among the common people. This was the old testament to the education of Japan. T he purpose of the old education It made the was absolutely vain. those old to memorize scholars Chinese tell the classics which history of China and ethics. T h ey taught that a man was great because he knew many Chinese letters, T h ey never attempted to make pro gress or change in their studies. T h ey stuck to old systems and en deavored to recite what they memo rized like so many graphophones, and refused to develop into rational and imaginative human beings. In 1867 Christ in education ap peared, or the n ew testament of education began. Until the year of * • T he M. A. C. RECORD. 1S78, our system of education was verv poor because we were too busy the foreigners w ho to entertain knocked at our doors. We were altogether in a chaotic condition. After 1878 we paid great attention to education, and sent out many students to Europe and America. N ow we have reached the conditions which I spoke of in the Holcad a short time ago. N ot only have we a good school system, but the edu cation is modern. As you all know, China now sends many thousands of students to J a p an year after year, instead of J a p an sending hers to China. T he best w ay to know the real value of this n ew education is by the fruits. We have a few promi nent universities and colleges which are becoming known all over the globe, such as the Imperial Uni versity of T o k y o, the University of Waseda, etc. T he schools have produced some noted scientists such as Kitazato, professor of bacteri ology, Prof. Omori, noted for his work on earthquakes, D r. T a k a- mine, of medicine, and others. As history shows, Japan has pro gressed in education from the mere human graphophones up to the real, high and modern type known to other countries. T HE NEGRO IN A DEMO CRACY. ABSTRACT OF AN ADDRESS BY MR. RAY STANNARD BAKER By its recent decision that in the case of Berea College of Kentucky, the Supreme Court of the United States enters upon the problem of limitation of democracy in America, and it thus upholds, though guarded ly and in a limited sense, the position of the South on the N e g ro question. And the position of the South is one of unbelief in a democracy which includes both white and colored people. WHAT IS DEMOCRACY ? Let us not be confused, in this discussion, bv statute book democ- racv. Democracv is not law, nor customs, nor institutions. Democ racy is a spirit, and if that spirit does not prevail among our people, should we retain Jaws on the statute books which we do not intend to obey ? T he white South never be lieved in giving the vote to the Negro ; it has never believed that the Negro should possess real civil rights ; its law books, so far as the spirit of the white South is con cerned, have been full of lies. Dis trust of the laws in this particular, habitual disobedience wherever the N e g ro was concerned, has spread until it has affected every human relationship. Men resort to per sonal vengeance instead of seeking the courts. T he " u n w r i t t en l a w" is more potent than the written law, night riders burn and kill without punishment. Travel in the south and you will find as I have found, most of the ablest and truest men urging the limitation of the franchise laws as applied to the N e g r o, and commend ing the separation of the races in cars, schools, railroad stations, and the like. T h ev feel that the laws should conform to the facts in the that men do not become case; democratic because democratic laws are on the statute books. T HE N O R TH SHOULD N OT CAST STONES. T he South does not now believe, and never has believed, in a democ racy which applies to every man re gardless of race, religion, or condi tion. But neither does the N o r t h. Undoubtedly the N o r th possesses more of the democratic spirit than the South, and yet, studying the growth of N e g ro communities in northern cities, I am convinced that if we had like anything the proportion of Negroes that the south struggles with, we should also find ourselves developing a spirit not unlike that of the South. Lynching, mob-law, dis crimination, prejudice, are not un known today in the north. I found discrimination and separation grow ing even in Boston, and I could not that mob-law in Springfield, find Ohio, was any less ferocious than in Huntsfield, Alabama. T he same spirit which drives a man with a colored face out of certain cities in Indiana is found burning N e g ro colleges in T e x a s. If We of the North, do not, most of us, believe, in any real sense, in a democracy which includes black men as well as white men. there were enough colored voters in N ew Y o rk to carry the city, or even to exercise a balance of power, and they all voted one ticket as they do in the south, dis franchisement would immediately become an important issue. As it is we are content to disfranchise most of our N e g ro voters at every election bv bribery. LITTLE DEMOCRACY AMONG US. T he point I am making here is that the spirit of democracy, which after all is the only thing that really counts, is not exhausted with exer cise anywhere in this land. We have made a little relative progress toward democracy; we have ex pressed its shining ideal in some of our institutions, but for most part the human heart of us is wilfully aristocratic, ungenerous, prejudiced, and it expresses its hautiness not onlv in the south,where Negroes suf fer most, but in the north, where we employ swarms of underpaid women and children, and build sel fish palaces out of the labor of wretched foreigners. INDUCTIVE METHOD IN GOVERN MENT. T h i nk what a tremendous experi mental laboratory in applied demo cracy is this South of o u r s! A whole people to draw an trving elusive line Jjetween some men w ho belong and some w ho do n o t! In legislature, in each campaign each the line wavers, is broken down at Some some point, is nearly drawn. awful event riot comes along and the best white men and the best Negroes who have never come together or known one another are irresistably forced into common effort. like the Atlanta A white man s a y s: "I did not know that there were any such in telligent Negroes in the country." Another a s k s: "After all, are we not b r o t h e r s ?" Or some man arises —a liberator, like Booker T. W a s h i n g t o n — w ho will not be classified, w ho breaks "Y\ hat shall through many lines. be done with such a m a n ?" these campaigners and legislators a sk " He serves the South. themselves, He is useful to all of us. H ow can we legislate such a man out of the democracy ? But can we let him in and keep out the dark-skinned man w ho follows close behind ?" THE INEVITABLE OUTCOME. So these Southern men are con cerning themselves with real ques tions ; they are being driven onward by the tremendous logic of events. T h ey will see sooner perhaps, than we see, the utter absurdity and im possibility of limiting a democracy. It must either be democracy or else a caste system or graded aristocracy, which, if it is forced will petrify our civilization as it has petrified that of India. Once an attempt is made to draw lines and it is dis covered that the whole attraction of the people is centered as it is today in the South, on drawing and re drawing the lines—to let a few more in or to keep a few more out. So we shall discover in time and by painful experience that if the N e g ro does not fit into our present sort of democracy, it is not the N e g ro w ho is wrong, but the democracy. T he final test of any democracv is its humblest citizen. T HE PROBLEM'S O N LY SOLUTION. T he spirit of democracv is the spirit of common effort and sym pathy between different sorts of people. In its essence it is intensely religious and it is the only thing that will finallv solve the N e g ro question in the South. I have heard absurd talk of exportation, segregation, ex remedies every termination quack temporizing with one, the mere which delays the cure. T he spirit of true democracy is faint in this country ; and it is not surprising that the United States Supreme Court should express what the people feel. W h at we need is a rivival of the spirit of democracy, both South and N o r t h. H ow can this be attained ? Again only by I mean by old-fashioned remedies. education and the passionate preach ing of the religion of service. DR. PRITCHETT'S V I S I T.
