Four Enter Religion
At St Augustine’s
Seminary
Bay St. i/ouis, Miss., Nov. 11
(ANP)—Four colored postulants
were received into the Novitiate of
the Society of the Divine Word at
St. Augustine’s seminary, Monday
f following a solemn low mass cele
% brated by the Very Riev. John
Gasper, S. V. D-, rector of the se
minary, assisted by the Rev. John
Kemper, S V. D.. and the Rev.
Joseph Shendill, S. V. D., deacon
and subdeacon respectively.
During the Mass the four postu
lants were clothed in the simple
black habit of the society after
which each postulant was given a
religious name. The ceremonies
that marked the reception were
vry impressive- Renouncing the
world with all its allurements, the
young candidates dedicated, with
out reserve, their lives to the so
ciety of the Divine Word. The fri
ends, relative s and parents of the
young men were visibly moved as
they knelt before the alter and pe
titioned to be received into th? so
ciety.
The postulants who received the
habit are: Junius Boyer, Brother
Peter, Arabi, La.: James Cable,
Brother Anthony. New Orleans:
Joseph Jfhlevare, Brother John,
Napoleonville, La-, and Vincent
Morton, Brother Lawrence, Sun
set, La- At present there are ten
novices, tpvo jprofessed .brothers
i and one postulant. The colored bro
r therhood began at the Seminary,
May 1, 1935, and is conducted by
the Society of the Divine Word.
Rosenwald Fund
Spends $691,763 On
Nesrro Health
Chicago, Nov. 18 (ANP)—Dur
ing the past year the Julius Ro
senwald fund spent $691,763
chiefly on rural education and No
gro health, according to the annual
report issued by Edwin R. Embree,
president of the fund- *
The most active, program during
the year was the improvement of
rural education for both white and
colored children in the Southern
states. ‘During the first two de
: cades of its life,” Mr. Embree said,
“the fund concentrated on the
building of school houses for Ne
groes and helped to build 5,357
schools in 883 counties of 15 sou
thern states at a total cost of
$28,408,620 of which the fund con_
tiibuted $4,366,619- Now th" furd
has turned its attention to what
gees on inside these school houses.
The fund’s chief efforts today are.
the building up of a few south rn
teachers’ colleges. The fund is in
terested not only in producing bet
ter teachers for rural schools but
also in improving county superv
sion of schools, the production of
better texts and other materials of
instruction and increasing the sal
ary scale of rural teachers.”
In addition to the rural school
program, the fund last year contri
buted $205,000 to health facilities
for Negroes and $75,000 to the de
velopment of three important Ne
gro universities—Fisk in Nashville,
Dillard in New Orleans, and At
lanta. Last year the fund started
a series of 50 annual fellowships
of approximately $1,500 each to
the most promising Negro scholars
and to most distinguished white
students and leaders in the South.

Electric I'ght users in th ■ city of
Kansas City, Kas., hav?- just been
rudely awakened by the manage
mint of their municipally owned
electric plant, the awakening tak
ing the form of a 50 per cent in
crease in light bills throughout the
area- The increase, which strikes
\ itali'y at the enterprise of the
city, is one which is arbitrarily set
bv the plant operators from whom
there is no protection in law.
Heavy users of electricity, re
ceiving their low rates on quantity
consumption, are more or less un
affected by the rate increase, but
small business, just struggling out
of the recent depression, is the
one who has received the heavy
. jolt.
The Kansas City Kansan, in Its
story dealing with the rate in
crease at the municipally owned {
plant, told of on$ business man
whose bfll had been raised $20 per
month. This business man, calling
upon the rates director of the com
pany, found that he had no re
course in law before any regular
body, but that the municipal oUnt
was a free institution privileged to
charge what the public would i
stand.
This business man then pointed
out that by levying the increase j
on business houses and not on
households made it appear a poli
tical racket and that household in
creases were not because of the
votes involved. The Kansan report
°d the rates director replied “That
that might me the case.’’
An organization has now bnen
formed to thoroughly investigate
the a/ctions of the municipal plant
management, citizens of Kansas j
City feeling that the plant, being j
tax free, is not nearly so beneficial ]
to the city as a privately owned (
plant would be. If the Kansas City j
property were privately owned, J
rates would be subject to state re
gulations and the plant would pay
an annual tax approximately
