ALEX LEVELS DIES AT CITY HOSPITAL Alex levels, well known for years as a promoter of dancers, died at the City Hospital Friday morning July 13. Levels was 40 years old and had a host of friends among all classes of people. Level's mother and father live out of the state and could not come to the funeral. The city Undertaker took charge of the body but his grandmother, Mrs. Katie Jenkins, wanted the A. B. Ridley establishment to conduct the funeral. Finding Levels had no insurance, a number of friends donated funds to bury him, but by n means enough. Then, it is said, Mrs. A. B. Ridley generously furnished the remaining expenses and gave Levels as good a funeral as if the firm were paid in full. Levels' friends are loud in their praises of Mrs. Ridley for this Christian act. Levels was buried Monday 2 p. m. from the Ridley chapel with the Rev. F. K. Armstrong conducting the funeral services. Internment was at Greenwood Cemetery.

FERRIS CHALLENGES REDDICK SAYS COLLEGE PRESIDENTS ARE NOT BLIND LEADERS "Smart" Young Negroes Do Not Have The Sense To Appreciate And To Follow Older Leaders By William H. Ferris Under the title, "The Younger Generation Looks at His College," Lawrence D. Reddick, a brilliant Fisk graduate and teacher in the Kentucky State College, in the July number of the "Opportunity" magazines rakes Negro college heads, fore and aft, smiting them hip and thigh. He is more caustic in his criticism of Negro colleges and their heads than was even Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the Phelps Stokes Fund sixteen years ago. There is such a thing as the Zeit Geist, the Spirit of the Age. Mr. Reddick but reflects the general spirit of the younger generation, especially a certain element of the would be "smart" young Negro generation which looks at the older generation with a critical eye. The Twentieth Century youth is no different from the Nineteenth Century youth. Youth has ever possessed ideals courage, faith, vitality, energy and enthusiam. Through its inexperience, it has not appreciated the difficulties encountered in realizing ideals and changing the face of the world. Emerson of Young Men. Before taking up Mr. Reddick's criticism of Negro college heads, let us pause a moment and recall what Ralph Waldo Emerson, the American Plato and seer of Concord, wrote tbout young men about 80 years ago. Emerson in his essay on Heroism says, "We have seen or heard of many extraordinary young men who never ripened, or whose performance in actual life was not extaordinary. When we see their air and mien, when we hear them speak of society of books, of religion, we admire their superiority; they seem to throw contempt on our entire polity and social state; theirs is the tone of a youthful giant who is sent to work revolutions. But they enter an active profession and the forming Colossus shrinks to the common size of man. The magic they used was the ideal tendencies, which always make the actual ridiculous, but the tough world had its revenge the (Continued on page 4) 
LINCOLN BECOMES VOCATIONAL COLLEGE PREPARATORY HIGH SCHOOL Lincoln Ridge, Ky. July 19--Beginning with the coming school year Lincoln Institute will become a Vocational College Preparatory High School. Lincoln Institute which for many years has been a Junior College enters the field of vocational training. But the administration at the Institute found it hard to decide what was best to do, as the cost of equipping vocational departments is greater than establishing an accredited Junior College. A decision was made to make the change first because of the desire for the Institute to be of maximum service to the Negro race. Among other reasons for making the change was the statement from W. B. Hill the General Educational Board; L. N. Taylor, supervisor of Negro schools in Kentucky, and A. N. May state supervisor of vocational education, that vocational work was soley needed in Kentucky. The change was also encouraged by report of the [committee?] composed of the following well [known?] educational leaders: R. B. [illegible] Merry, S. L. Barker, [and?] [illegible] lor. This committee, [illegible] Kentuckey  Educational [illegible] the consideration of [illegible] in the education [illegible] [among others?] [illegible] toward preparing for college entrance. Practically nothing is done toward preparing for entrance into life the high school graduate who does not plan, for one reason or another, to enter college."
