The Acceptable Thing
The acceptable thing is to do the most good
in the shortest time at the least expense. It
cannot be done by a single law, in a single
day, with a single gift. Our school is a lever
which has made of several hundred young men
and women levers in their turn to lift up their
race. The masses of colored people have got
the habit of work, and only need a teacher, an
object lesson. In the Black Belt.
