Atlanta University, an institution for the higher education of colored men and women in Atlanta, Ga., now celebrating its semi-centenial, has begun the raising of a half-million-dollar endowment fund. to this we gladly call our readers' attention in the earnest hope that some of them will contribute to this most worthy undertaking, even at a time when the need for help in Europe is so great. Why do we take this position? Because even in the south people are beginning to realize that if the colored people are to direct their footsteps towards efficiency, probity and useful citizenship, there must be among them great leaders and great teachers. This is precisely the opportunity and need which Atlanta University is living up to. Teachers who assume the higher responsibilities are as entitled to training schools of the best type as are any white instructors of youth. --New York Evening Post
