THE LINCOLNIAN Vol. 4 JUNE, 1911 No. 7 EDITORIAL STAFF. JAS. CORDELL WHITE - Editor-in-chief GARDINER PINCKNEY Assistant Editor ROBERT A. BAILEY Business Manager ALONZO BROOKS - Ass ' t Business Manager GILBERT ROSS - - - Advertising Managei EDITORIALS Schoolmates, Alumni, and Friends of Lincoln High School, the Lin- colnian is presented to the people of Kansas City for the seventh time; the class of 1911 is passing out. their con- nection with old Lincoln will stum be entirely severed, but in passing let us hope that they will always keep a warm spot in their hearts for their old Alma Mater. The editors have done their best to make this a true representative of all in Old Lincoln — from the mighty Seniors to the smallest Freshman, and if they accomplish their aim, they will feel fully repaid for all their hard work. We pass no judgment on the book, hence make no apologies for its shortcomings, for this book is for you to criticise or compliment as you see fit. The past year has been a creditable one for Lincoln in every respect. September found our students on hand and conscientious workers. Even the Freshmen seemed less green. o During the past year we have been entertained by several distinguished men of our race. Mr. Clarence C. White, a violinist of no small ability from Wash- ington. I). C. ; Mr. I I. T. Burleigh, a baritone of New York: Mr. Win. Hack- ney. a tenor of Chicago; Rev. Henry Jamison of Peoria, III., and Dr. Henry Wilson of Chicago. III. The Lincoln High School Chorus sang at the Central High School for the teachers’ institute last fall, and their singing was highly appreciated. Since the music has been iu charge of Mr. Gerald ' Tyler at Lincoln, he has produced better music each year. Last year at Central High School the choral society under his direction produced Mnssenets’ Mary Magdalene, and it was more than successful. This year Mr. ' Tvler thought Central High School was too small,- so he secured the Orpheum Theatre to produce that well known play, S. Coleridge Taylor’s Hiawatha.” One hundred and fifty of the Lincoln High School chorus in cos- tume. assisted by Mr. II. T. Burleigh, baritone of New York, and Mr. William Hackney, tenor of Chocago. In Miss Carrie E. Brydie, the Latin teacher at Lincoln, one finds a lady that cannot lx- surpassed in managing the stage. The costumes were made by the girls of Lincoln under the watchful eye of Mr. F. D. Sprague. The scenery was made by Miss Louise Fordham, the art teacher at Lincoln ; the ornaments were made by the girls under the direction of Miss O. A. Sasportas; the property by Mr. Chas. Westmoreland, the man- ual training teacher. o HIAWATHA.” One of the most notable incidents in the history of the school, in fact iu the history of Kansas City, was the rendi- tion of S. Coleridge ' Taylor’s Hia- watha by our school at the Orpheum Theater, May 19th. For a year, per- haps. Prof. ' Tyler, director of music, had worked faithfully upon the choruses and the pupils had supported him zealously in the effort. As a re- sult this production was characterized as the best and most ambitious ever attempted by the negroes of this country.
