Som# (.assorts In ths Usa of Paint aa a Direct Contribution to Boeial Service In the Promotion of Health—^Barriers to the Trade Are Being Successfully Removed. I By W. ANTHONY AERY. Hampton. Va.—There are literally thousands upon thousands of dwellings and outbuildings throughout the land which are rotting for the lack of paint. Men and women have not yet fully realized that when paint is thoroughly, skillfully and tastefully applied to their buildings they have made a real contri bution to the economic and social wel fare of their community. Not only in the south and west, but indeed through out the country, people need to realize that the broom commonly used for whitewashing and the kit of paint brushes, which costs very little money, are hopeful Instruments In obtaining real public health protection. The Negro and ludian youth have a wonderful opportunity to take up paint iug not only as a commercially profit able occupation, but also as a medium for genuine social service. Too many Negroes and Indians still have to learn that painting is a relatively be<hful occupation and one which offers to steady, sober, skilled mechanics work during the whole year at a good wage. The dread of lead poisoning, so gen era! a few years ago. Is fading away With the decrease in the use of pow dered pigments and the increase In at tention to clean habits of working and living there is no longer a valid objec tlon to painting as a risky occupation. Men have also come to realize that the use of liquor has more to do with de creasing their efficiency and tbelr earn ing power than the natural hazards of such a trade as painting. Painters, in short, like all other work ers. regardless of any artificial class distinction, are becoming as a group more sober, more efficient and more re liable. Hampton Institute offers a four year course In painting. It alius to turn out practical painters who have a background of useful knowledge and a vision of what a good mechanic‘can d«» as a community leader. Here is u partial list of the work done by the Hampton Institute*trade school painters during a typical year: Twenty-eight buildings painted on the outside; sixteen painted Inside, thirteen roofs, twent.v-two porch floors and eighty-six rooms painted; seventy floors waxed, varnished or painted; live gates and fences, nine boats and launches, twenty screens, four tire sets and 188 signs painted; sixteen car riages, carts and wagons and thirteen automobiles painted; forty-eight trays enameled. 400 pieces of t»hl or varnished, twelve radiators bronzed and fifty-three rooms papered. Were one skeptical of securing good results from student tradesmen hero is some first class evidence that Hamp ton Is attacking with system tbe prob lem of taking Negroes and Indians, who are fresh from the country or the city, and training them for useful citi zenship. How are these excellent re sults secured? The Hampton Trade school work In painting includes three main divisions—technical Instruction, carriage, wagon and automobile paint ing. and house painting. The hagi? re ceive tasks of graduated difficulty and at every turn combine theory with practice. In the technical training they are taught the names and uses of the tools that they use. They learn to match colors. They study the quality of the materials which they use. 'They are shown clearly, for example, why lin seed oil is better than cottonseed oil in painting. They receive practical shop talks on the making of paints, leads and other materials with which the general painter must deni in his daily work. During the Saturday morning shop talks the instructor tells the students some of the Interesting facts about the I>eople who produce the raw materials commonly used In the trade. The stu dents take notes and reproduce them orally and in writing. When a stu dent. for example, knows that the burning of a ship at sea. with its car go of 100.000 cases of shellac from India, causes a decided change in the market price of shellac he Is bound to have a greater Interest in nnA sym pathy for the people In a foreign land who gather the raw material for use in the United States..
