TUSllilEGlElE'XS CREED 0 WE BELIEVE IN THE DIGNITY OF LABOR We shall prosper in proportion as we learn to dignify and glorify labor and put brains and skill into the common occupations of life. 0 WE BELIEVE IN DOING WHAT WE DO WELL The man who has learned to do something better than anyone else, has learned to do a common thing in an uncommon manner, is the man who has a power and influence that no adverse circumstances can take from him. 0 WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF EDUCATION Ignorance is not a cure for anything. There is no defense or security for any of us except in the highest intelligence and development of all. 9 WE BELIEVE IN THE LIFE OF SERVICE The only thing worth living for is the lifting up of our fellowmen . . . The greatest thing you can learn is the lesson of brotherly love, of use- fulness, and of charity. 9 WE BELIEVE IN THE SPIRIT OF COOPERATION BETWVEEN ALL INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS Cast down your bucket where you are. Cast it down in making friends in every honorable way, of the people of all races by whom you are surrounded. 9 WE BELIEVE IN FITTING ALL MEN TO EXERCISE THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP It is important and right that all privileges of the law be ours, but it is vastly more important that we be prepared for the exercise of these privi- leges . . . Let the very best educational opportunities be provided for both races, and add to this the enactment of an election law that shall be incapable of unjust discrimination, at the same time providing that in proportion as the ignorant secure education, property and character, they will be given the rights of citizenship. ' 'Quotation from Up From Slaveryg julia P. Skinner, One Hundred Selected Sayings of Booker T. Washington, and Scott and Stowe, Booker T. Washington, Builder of a Civili- zation.
