THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. V. SPRINGFIELD NEGROES AWAKE TO THE NEEDS OF THE HOUR. Anxious that Young Folks Stay on the Farm. CONVERSATION WITH PROMINENT MAN FROM THAT THRIVING TOWN BRINGS OUT IMPORTANT FACTS—SEES THE NEED OF YOUNG PEOPLE RECEIVING BETTER TREATMENT FROM PARENTS—CONSIDERATION MUST BE TAKEN OF THEIR WANTS — TOO MUCH WORK MAKES A CHILD 'S LIFE MONOTONOUS. Springfield, Tenn., March 2.—(Special)—That the Negroes in and around Springfield are wide awake is clearly evidenced in a conversation had with a prominent citizen in that town. He brought out some facts that are not generally thought of by the average man. He said: Perhaps the most serious problem confronting the farmers of America to-day is that of keeping the boys and girls on the farm. From every rural community comes the complaint: "Our children' forsake the old farm and hasten to the city." Then comes the pathetic question: "What can we do to keep our boys and girls with us on the farm?" This question, though seemingly difficult, can be answered like any other, when the underlying principles are understood and the right methods of solution are applied. In most cases it is a lack of comprehension of these principles, a failure through shortsightedness, to deal properly with the children. Parents must consider their own childhood days and view their children's nature from this standpoint. It must not be understood that the child should not be taught to work, far from it; but what is meant is that too much work should not be expected or required of growing children. The most sensible and wholesome results attend the judicious intermingling of play and work. By tact on the parents' part the farm boys and girls can be made to enjoy their life. Their duties can be so tempered with recreation, that instead of being one of drudgery, their existence will be a joyous one; and instead of bitterly hating the farm and all that appertains thereto, they will not be anxious to leave it for the city. The farm is the place, above all others, in which child life should be the nearest approach to the ideal. Here are health, sunlight, pure air and abundance of good foods, first hand from nature; yet often the young people on the farm chafe, as it were, under the restraint of parents who fail to appreciate the mental and social make-up of their offspring. Too often they are kept too long and too hard at labor distasteful to them, without any recompense save their board and clothing, and no recreation but what they find Sunday. It doesn't pay to bear down too hard on young shoulders. Give the boys and girls a chance of partnership with you in the farming business, when they have attained the proper age. Make the farm a co-operative institution instead of a one-man concern. Who have a better right than one's own children to be sharers in the profits, and to enjoy them while they are young? Your children are co-laborers with you. Why not make their profit sharers along with yourself and wife? The social nature of the child must needs be developed along with the physical, intellectual and the spiritual. Parents can derive most happiness by helpfully directing and shaping the psychological sides of their sons and daughters. Proper choice of associates, plenty of good reading, well directed instruction and an exemplary Christian life with the right sort of spiritual guidance, will make the farm home and its atmosphere so delightful and lovable that the city will look in vain for its toll of the best NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 1910. blood and minds which the rural districts continually supply. tricts continually supply. In these days when agriculture is being taxed almost to its limit to feed and clothe the urban people, the possibilities on the farm are ever expanding to meet the increased demands. Farming as a business is second to none, and farming as a science is no less important. Modern business and scientific methods applied to agriculture, have elevated this important occupation to the plane of a professon, and as such it is now recognized. Children on the farm may be led to see that there is as much dignity and honor in the pursuit of agriculture as in following law, medicine or engineering. Farmers of to-day must be educated, and those of to-morrow must be more advanced in scientific lines. NEGRO BANKERS ASSOCIATION. Much activity can already be seen among the half hundred Negro banks of the United States with regard to the coming session of the National Negro Bankers Association, which organization has at its head Mr. W. R. Pettiford, of Birmingham, Ala., and which meets in New York. Mr. Pettiford is also the organizer and supervisor who visits various states. He has been very active in assisting in the organization of quite a number of banks. In a recent communication sent out urging a large attendance at the proposed meeting to be held in New York, Dr. Pettiford said: "The number of these institutions and the importance of their work makes it necessary that we have a large, well attended annual meeting in New York City on the 16th day of August, 1910, at ten o'clock, the day prior to the meeting of the National Negro Business League. "We find it impossible to have a satisfactory and instructive meeting during the session of the League, therefore, it is hoped that every bank will be represented by its reports, if not by a delegate. "We would be glad to show the aggregate of the business of Negro banks in the country so as to have it printed in the minutes of the league. Therefore, we urge that every bank send in a statement to my address, 217 North Eighteenth street, Birmingham, Ala. Should any bank not have a form of statement they will please give the authorized amount of capital stock, amount paid in, amount of deposits, amount of money handled during the year ending June 31st, 1910, and the name of the president and cashier, also the amount of real estate owned by the institution. MOUND BAYOU'S LIBRARY. Sometime last year The Globe contained a special from the thriving city of Mound Bayou, Miss., in which an interview with Mr. Chas. Banks was given stating that Mr. Andrew Carnegie had donated a library to the city of Mound Bayou. Information now comes direct from this well-known Negro town stating that the library has been erected. The dedicatory exercises will, no doubt, be held at an early date. Mr. Banks declares that the addition of this magnificent building has already caused greater activity along the improvement line throughout that needed burg. The library is to be free and it is said that it will be kept open and maintained on the plan of the other Carnegie Libraries in the metropolitan cities. EVENING AFFAIR. Most enjoyable was the evening tea given in honor of Mrs. Bessie Wood, of Chicago, and Miss Katie Hightower, of Indianapolis, by Miss Hattie Fleming, of 1905 Fourthtown avenue, North, on March 1st. The affair was given at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Webster, of Grant street, and in addition to an artistically arranged musical programme, games and dancing were fetures. Tea, sandwiches and confections were served from a prettily-decorated tea table. Those present were Mrs. Bessie Wood, Chicago; Misses Katie Hightower, Indianapolis; Janie Hill, Louise Arm-armstrong, Irene Caruthers, Beulah Williams, Amanda Trotter, Lenora Whittaker, Fannie Watkins, Maggie Hill, Hattle Fleming, Messrs. James Ramsay, W. Bracy, A. Sweeny, L. Gillmore, E. Dobson, Dr. Clark, students of Meharry; Hon. J. P. Rhines, Messrs. Joe Webster, Jr., of Chicago; Perry Bond, C. Irvin, Carter Caldwell and Wesley Manney, Messrs. Polk, Bailey and Kelly of Fisk University. YEAR'S WORK IN SPECIALIST DEPARTMENT OF MEHARRY. Successfully Closed Last Friday Night. DR. C. V. ROMAN READS AN INTERESTING PAPER BEFORE THE CLASS—TELLS YOUNG DOCTORS HOW TO PROLONG THEIR LIVES—ADVISES THAT THEY ADOPT REGULAR HABITS—HAVE A LOVE FOR THE WORK ENGAGED IN—EXPECT LITTLE FOR MUCH—STRIVE TO MAKE ONE GOOD MAN IN THE WORLD—HE THAT HEARETH. Last Friday brought a close to the course in diseases of eye, ear, nose and throat at Meharry Medical College for the school year 1909-1910. We have indeed been blessed in having as our executive head Dr. C. V. Roman who, after an active general practice covering a period of fifteen years, is devoting his life to the disease of the special senses. Dr. Roman is eminently prepared for this work, having had the distinguished opportunity of perusing a special course in England. The Senior and Junior classes feel greatly indebted for the valuable instructions received, and feel that they can use no better means than this in expressing their gratitude. At the closing clinic Dr. Roman, by request, read the following paper on how to increase the resisting power: DO YOU WISH TO RAISE YOUR OPSONIC INDEX—INCREASE YOUR RESTING. POWER. 1. Above every thing and in every thing remember, "There is a divinity that shapes oud ends, Rough-hew them how we may." Let nothing shake your belief in the existence of a supreme being and your final accountability to him. 2. "Fret not thyself because of evil doers or them that seem to prosper in their way." Win or lose, do the right and believe with the poet, "I can but trust that good will fall. At last far off, At last to all, And every winter change to spring." "Who plays with God as man to man, Will win at the turn of the game." 3. Be neither timid nor audacious, for the one shows the lack of confidence of power, and the other a lack of conscience or skill. But be serenely courageous, having fully prepared yourself to do the right—do it with confidence. 4. Be firm but not stubborn; confident but not opinionated; open to the truth, but not changeable; differential but not servile; seeking always the truth and doing always the right. Hesitate not to change your course when you find you are wrong. "Seize on the truth where'er 'tis found, Amongst your friends, amongst your foes, On Christian or on heathen ground; The flower's divine where'er it grows." 5. Remember that the mind alone is capable of perpetual youth and is the determining factor of our lives, whether they be happy or unhappy. "It is not in the stars but in ourselves." "Our lives are songs, God writes the words, We set them to music at pleasure, And the song grows glad or sweet or sad, As we choose to fashion the measure." "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness," is worldly wisdom as well as religious truth. "As a man thinkk in his heart, so is he." 6. The body is the servant of the mind. A wise man will be kind to his servant. Do not abuse your bodies. Eat enough, but avoid gluttonness; sleep enough but avoid drowsiness. Don't be finiky or cranky, but be temperate in all things. Be chary of the alurements of John Barley corn and the blandishments of Nicotina, the one is the roue without conscience and the other a hag without morals, both fond of destroying the character and usefulness of the young. No positive good has ever come to any one by associating with either of them. The best that can be said for them is that they have not robbed every one that trusted them. 7. "Cleanliness is the next to Godliness,' was written centuries before Asepisis was born. If men could thus recognize the truth, "Seeing through a glass darkly," what right has a doctor of the "twentleth century" to expect long life and health unless he takes every advantage that "aseptic tools and antiseptic rules" can afford to guard himself against contagion from without, an auto infection from within? SEMPER PARATUS must be the motto of the doctor who would live "until like ripe fruit he drops into his mother's lap." The daily bath is a life preserver. 8. Regularity is the balance wheel of a long life. A vehicle can travel further with less expenditure of energy on a smooth road than on a rough road. Habit is the great road-master of life's highway. If you will assiduously cultivate his company from your youth up he will gradually smooth your way until you will approach the hill of old age without a jolt—whence the descent into the "Valley of Shadows" is so gentle and gradual that you will feel no chill when the Death Angel embraces you for the last cold kiss that awaits us all. Wouldst thou reach life's farthest border, take the path of Regular Duty. It often begins very rough, but always grows smoother as we journey, until we fall asleep in a bower of roses to wake in the Vale of Paradise. Finally, cultivate a love for your work and seek to master it—to become one of the wise men of your profession. Do not forget the reward that Wisdom holds for her devotees, "length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honor." Remember the pleasant things, forget the unpleasant. Love your friends, watch, not too closely, however, your enemies. Be careful in business. Be honest in trade. Work for much, hope for much, trust much, EXPECT little. Do you find the world bad? Put one good man in it. Do you find the world good? Do not mar that goodness by thrusting a bad man into it. If you do not get what you want, want what you get, and thus approach thy grave in peace. "Like one that wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to pleasant dreams." "Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock. And a rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock." REV. W. S. ELLINGTON, A. B., D. D., TO BE BANQUETED. The members of the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North, have issued invitations to a reception to be given in honor of their pastor, Rev. W. S. Ellington, A. B., D. D., Monday evening, March 14, 1910. The occasion is in celebration of the tenth anniversary of his pastorate at this church. The members of the several committees selected are putting forth every effort to make the affair an enjoyable one. The church congratulates itself upon being able to retain the valuable and inspiring services of this most popular divine, and wishes to show its appreciation in a hearty way. The occasion will be replete with oratory, mirth and good cheer. Several hundred members and friends will be present to make the evening one long to be remembered. Those who are most active in arrangements compose the following committees: Committee on Arrangements—Mesdames A. B. Carter, J. W. Johnson, J. W. Work, Emma Hopkins, Chas. Edmondson, Nellie Seay, W.

TWENTY-THREE PRESDIENTS AND PRINGIPALS OF COLLEGES. Assemble Here in Annual Session. MEETING UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE FREEDMEN'S AID SOCIETY — SESSIONS HELD IN WALDEN UNIVERSITY — PROMINENT EDUCATORS CALLED FROM ALL PARTS OF THE COUNTRY—MATTERS OF IMPORTANCE DISCUSSED AND ADJUSTED—PLATFORM MEETING SUNDAY EVENING—DR. MASON, OF CINCINNATI. The meeting of the officers, representatives and secretaries of the Freedmen's Aid Society, which was in session last week out at Walden University, which is known as one of the most noted schools controlled by the Society, is supposed to have accomplished a great deal toward the betterment of the numerous schools directly under control of the organization. Unconfirmed reports are being circulated to the effect that this meeting will ultimately result in the carrying out of the complete "university idea" at Walden and that the school will be again placed upon that financial and important footing which was mapped out for it years ago, and which, it is said, was well under way before the disastrous fire interfered with the program some years ago. The personnel of the Freedmen's Aid Society meeting included the presidents, deans and officials of twenty-three Negro educational institutions scattered throughout the United States. There were some notable educators in the meeting. The sessions were held at the Meharry Auditorium. At the beginning Bishop J. M. Walden, of Cincinnati, President of the Freedmen's Aid Society, was a conspicuous member. The President of Walden University, Dr J. A. Kumler, presided at the opening session. The meeting continued throughout the latter part of last week and until Tuesday of this week. Diligent inquiry failed to ascertain any more real facts as to all the purposes of the meeting, other than that given in the general report, which says "the prime object of the coming together of these officials of the society at this time is for the discussing of methods of advancing the work of the various colleges under its control and to improve their management as far as possible." It was noticeable during each session that the subjects discussed were kept in line with the advertised purpose of the meeting. These discussions were opened by Prof. H. C. Minnich, Dean of the State Normal of Miami University, Oxford, Ohio. He spoke on the "Preparatory Normal Course," confining his entire remarks to the needs of this particular subject throughout the session. A number of other subjects were discussed along the line of the needs of all educational institutions, and yet the situation surrounding Walden University is said to have been discussed. It has been rumored in Nashville for some time that the Society was being urged to arrange sufficient accommodation for the hundreds of students who are anxious to take advantages offered only at Walden University, the only real university in the immediate South prepared to give instruction along the various literary and professional branches, as scores of students have been turned away for the lack of room and accommodation. Then, too, hardly any one in all of the vast number of prominent men present was willing to deny that some move of this kind was going to be made. Possibly the most widely known in Nashville of the visitors was Dr. M. C. B. Mason, one of the Society's secretaries, but he would not say positively what would be done, nor would Prof. M. W. Dogan, of Wiley University, Marshall, Texas. nor Prof. R. S. Lovinggood, of Sam Houston College, (Continued on Page 5.) THE A, M. E. MINISTERS, The A. M. B.

Misses Caruthers and Oversreet were hostess to the H. T. G. M. Club at the residence of Miss Caruthers, 1824 Jefferson street. The young ladies of the club met at the usual hour, 6 o'clock, and indulged in rosemaking under the direction of Miss Lillian Bright. At 8 o'clock when the young men, guests of the club, began to arrive, each young lady was wearing a neck rose or a corsage rose of her own workmanship. The young men were presented with buttonhole bouquets of violets. The entertainment began with a series of whist games. The first prize, a picture motto, was won by Miss Lilla Badger, the booby, a toy goose, fell to Miss Blanche Stevens. These clever hostesses took advantage of the pleasant evening and surprised their guests by presenting each with a card of invitation to a picnic in "Cameron's Grove." The guests repaired to the designated spot and found a table spread in real picnic style, with sandwiches, pickles, olives, salads, stuffed eggs, custards and lemonade by the bucketful. The novelty of the occasion and the effect of the walk were most suitable appetizers, and in a few moments they had done justice to the lunch. The guests of the club were Misses Blanche Stevens and Elizabeth Moore; Messrs. D. W. Crutcher, Jas. A. Simpson, A. H. Stith, Drs. A. H. Dyson, J. L. Sapp, E. D. McLaurin, H. E. Nash, J. I. Taylor and B. F. Davies. The next meeting will be with Mrs. Wm. Glover and Miss Blanche Randals, 62 First avenue, North, April 1. TULLAHOMA CLIMBING.

FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 1910. THE UNION ANSWERS. When Mr. R. L. Mayfield, a local attorney, in a communication to the Globe charged the Investigating Committee sent here by the National Baptist Convention with having snubbed all of the Negro lawyers in Nashville and to have employed a white lawyer, we asked that the Baptist papers throw some light on the subject. We were loathe to believe that such a thing had been done. We know somewhat of the men who constituted the committee, and have always considered them among the staunchest advocates of race loyalty. We have counted them among the men who believe in themselves, and in the ability of other Negroes to master whatever has been mastered by men of other races, whether it be in literature, science or art. We have numbered them, being men of learning and experience, with those who believe that a Negro's brain is as fertile as that of any other race. These gentlemen all know the struggles Negroes have had to make their way in the world. They cannot make any one believe that they have not taken note of the many obstacles those have had to overcome who aspire to attain to a position to demand the respect of the world; and they undoubtedly have a knowledge of the fact that thousands of Negroes have succeeded in convincing the world that they have the ability to do what other men have done and are doing to-day. It matters not whether it be at the bar of justice, in the halls of legislation, in the pulpit, in the school-room, on the platform or what not, the Negro has proven his ability to hold his own. If seeing is believing, then these reverend gentlemen must believe that the Negro is capable of doing well, whatever he puts his hands to. The Negro lawyer has the hardest time of any of the professional men of the race, in that he comes in direct contact with the white lawyer and before a white jury, but despite all this he has given a good account of himself; he, therefore, must be a close student. Lawyers do not mince their words when pleading before a court because one happens to be black and the other white, but instead they go right in to win, and the fact that the Negroes win a good share of their cases before all the courts is proof positive that they are onto their job. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. MARCH 11. 1910. Therefore, the contention set up by the Union that "the committee felt that the guidance of an experienced white lawyer would be more profitable to it, and that he could render it more satisfactory service," is a reflection on the Negro lawyers in this city. And then, how does The Union know what the members of the committee thought? Did they consult the editor of the Union? He says he was not a member of the committee. We would not believe him to be eligible, as the board of which he is secretary was part of the property to be investigated. We will not, however, go into details on that point, but will assume that being the official organ, the committee felt duty bound to ask The Union to assist them in whatever way possible. Coming back to the point. If the committee felt that there was not a Negro lawyer in Nashville who had sense enough to advise them how to go to the secretaries of these boards and tell them that they had come in obedience to their supreme body to see what the convention had here, why then, they do hold the legal profession in this city very cheaply, and the Negro lawyers had better wake up. We believe we all can agree that comparisons are odious. Then why compare the court and the church? But granting that the ministers who constituted that committee, after they had been informed of the ability and standing of the many Negro lawyers here, decided that they were all "num skuls," then suppose we put that shoe on the other foot, how would they feel if, after all the years they have spent in preparation to preach the gospel they should be told by their congregations that white men would have to be called to take charge of their affairs in a church meeting; we imagine that they would cry out "race pride." But there are Negro lawyers in this city who have been practicing before all the courts, some of them, for over twenty-five years. They stand high in their profession, and are respected by the courts, and can it be true that they have not learned yet how to advise a committee who are simply sent to investigate and report their findings? Again, if the members of the committee were so well informed in legal matters that the Negro lawyers could not aid them, it seems that they might have proceeded without a lawyer. The Union states that "The attention of the committee was then called to a fifth Negro lawyer, whose name is R. L. Mayfield. The committee did not see fit to employ Lawyer Mayfield." But still Mr. Mayfield has brought suit to collect a fee. So he must have thought that he had been employed, but the committee broke away from their chief adviser, who ever that party was, for be it remembered, their attention was "called." This case reminds us of a boy's first impression of an elephant. The little fellow is puzzled to know heads from tails. This explanation given by the official organ of the National Baptist Convention, who was not a member of the committee, reads very authoratively, and the committee's decision puts the whole Negro race in a bad plight. If, after forty-seven years of freedom, we are no further removed from a state of helplessness than they would have us believe we are it is time to give up the fight for recognition as men. But the members of the committee are having something to say themselves. True, the statements all sound like the voice of "Jacob," but we accept them as genuine. We do not believe the great National Convention will approve of the action of its committee in this lawyer business. It is not a case that can be passed off lightly, but a grave matter that affects all the people. And since it was committed by a body of ministers, to whom thousands of people are looking for guidance, and inspiration and hope, it should be condemned in the severest terms. If the members of the committee were influenced by some one residing in this city, that individual should be run down and held up to the public and branded as a menace to the peace and prosperity of the race. The voters who elected the Honorable Hillary E. Howse Mayor of this city have no cause so far to regret their action. He is proving that it is possible for a chief executive to conduct a city strictly on business principles. Invitations are out announcing the fiftieth anniversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Winter. It is a great blessing to have been associated as man and wife for half a century, and to have lived so as to command the respect of the people in the community. Mr. and Mrs. Winter are recognized as citizens of the highest type, and will receive the plaudits of all the people on the day of their celebration. We acknowledge an invitation to the inauguration of Dr. Gates, the new president of Fisk University, which will take place on the 31st of this month. That will be a great day for the man as well as the university. Dr. Gates has made a host of friends since he came to that institution, and stands in a position to immortalize himself to the people of this city and the country at large. The death of Senator Platt removes from public life a man who has for many years been conspicuous in the affairs of this nation. Many of his acts have been criticised, but he was no exception to the rule. That man in whom no faults can be found is equally as void of virtues. John D. Rockefeller, it seems, is determined to outdo Mr. Carnegie as a public benefactor. If he would pass a few of his surplus dollars around to the boys in their bare paws they would proclaim him a mightier rock than Gibraltar. Picnic season will soon be with us again. Those who have been the wards of charity this winter should not allow the flaring hand bill and the belching steamboat to make them forget that in nine months old crimp will be back again to greet us all. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. Snubbed Negro Lawyers. The committee of eminent Baptist divines who conducted an investigation of the affairs of the National been cornered by the Nashville Globe Baptist Publishing Board in Nashville, Tenn., a few weeks ago have for their failure to employ a colored attorney when legal counsel was needed in their deliberations. The committee, which was composed of some of the best educated and most widely experienced Baptist preachers in the United States, have given no satisfactory explanation of why they employed a white attorney. By their action in the matter they have exposed themselves to a criticism that is becoming quite frequent in regard to that class of men who style themselves "big Negroes." They live of the race but contribute nothing but gratuitous advice to its support, for which they are usually paid exorbitant salaries by the common people. From the rostrum they cry with a loud voice "race pride" and "race enterprise," and as soon as a headache takes one he calls a white physician, or if one wants a legal paper drown he consults a white lawyer. He pursues the same course about everything else that is required to keep his soul and body together. He is notorious for "taking" Negro newspapers but is seldom known to pay for one. Of course, we do not include all the "big Negroes" in this category, but those who are exempt are rare specimens. It so happens that the Baptist divines who pulled off that big investigation in Nashville allowed themselves to be caught in the act by a very wide-awake race journal. They probably will not repeat the same performance again. The big Negro who does not practice what he preaches is almost as much an enemy to the race as the Tillmans and Vardamans.—The Journal and Guide, Norfolk, Va. --- The Negro should cultivate more race pride in the various business enterprises to be found among our own people. We have in our city quite a number of business men and women, as well as professional ones, and we should give them all the encouragement possible, seek to build up the race and show to the world that we have the proper appreciation of merit when we find it among ourselves.— The Reformer, Richmond, Va. --- The way to keep taxes down in Philadelphia is to seek to keep the expenses of the city down. All rioters who seek to break up or blow up street cars, ought to know that every car damaged, all policemen sworn in, all militia called out increases the city's expenses, and the taxpayers will be burdened to help pay the bill. —The Philadelphia Tribune, Philadelphia, Pa. --- Governor J. M. Brown has proved in all that he is a wise and judicious executive of a great state. He is the people's man, a man in the right even Negro Georgians have pleasure in saying our governor. Long may his kind and class of men fill the high offices of the state. It is now as of old, "Happy is that people whose God is the Lord."—The Independent, Savannah, Ga. * * * The Triumph of Conservatism The Triumph of Conservatism. The election of Hon. Leroy Percy of Greenville to the United States Senate is a distinct triumph for the conservative element of the State of Mississippi. Straws show which way the wind is blowing, it is said, and this election means that the public opinion of the state s set toward progress, the development of the immense natural resources of the state and the raising of the estimate in which the state is held by the outside world. Many things have contributed to this end, but chief among all is the consciousness, fast growing in the South that she is being left behind in the general development of the country, both intellectually and economically. The great intellectual giants and master-politicians of former days flourish no more—the Clays, Calhouns. Prentisses of ante-bellum days have no successors on the national stage at the present day, and this fact is being felt. Then, too, economic reasons were strong in bringing about the present conservative tendency. Northern capital, by which alone this country can be developed to its highest possibility, could not be brought to the state in any great amount until it was sure of adequate protection and liberal legislation. Mr. Percy's election has no direct bearing upon legislation, except as showing the tenor of public sentiment. This, however, means much to those who have money to invest, and the chorus of thanksgiving raised all over the country at the result is evidence of this fact. For our people the election means both little and much. It means little in direct and immediate benefit, little insofar as the usual trend of our daily lives is concerned. But it means much in that it signifies a reaction from the radical, a turning away from the extremist, in the consideration of the eternal problem, and a disposition toward -just, fair and dispassionate treatment of all the people that part of the people who have charge of affairs.-The Blade, Greenville, Miss. COMMUNICATION. Oklahoma's Disfranchisement Bill. Gov. Haskell, of Oklahoma, vetoed the Taylor election bill which had been passed by the legislature. This measure had for its chief aim the disfranchisement of the Negro electors of that state. The Governor, being a wiser statesman than the one-talent politicians who subscribed to the unwise and unjust measure, put his disapproval upon it. His discountening of an act which, in both letter and spirit, is opposed to that expressed by the national constitution, added something creditable to the awakening sane statesmanship of the times. Too long and too far have the small-fry or one-idea statesmen from the tall uncut been allowed to ride their calamity-howling hobby, Negro domination. The Negrophobia extremists have carried their game too far, even to the nauseating point, and the stomach of public opinion rebels at more of it. With this tribe of office-seeking 1x1 statesmen, who have preyed upon the credulity of an indifferent public for years, it has been Negro! Negro! Negro! morn, noon and night. The erstwhile coveted berths held by little solons and would-be statesmen from the forks of the creeks are destined to go to strong and conservative men—men who will conserve the best interests of the commonwealth, instead of chasing in wildgoose fashion after that stereotyped old hobgoblin, Negro domination! JADECEE. Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1. by a male quartette DR, HENRY E. KREEBIEL, "Dean of American Critics" says: "A concert-goer might live a lifetime and never hear such beautiful homogeneity of tone as that which they produce, nor such euphonia, perfection of unance and precision. Save for its vital human quality, which lifts it above all musical products, this harmony sounds like that of a well-tuned organ." This recognition puts our Folk Songs side by side with the world's greatest musical achievements. WRITE FOR INFORMATION TO Work Bros. & Hart Co., BOX 61. NASHVILLE. - TENN. RELIGION IN EVERY-DAY LIFE. The greatest revival ever known among the people of Nashville has broken out and is being conducted in all quarters of the city. So intense has been the revival spirit that the atmosphere of Nashville seems to be permeated with it. A commendable feature of the spring revivals was the springing up of an actual revival service in one of the big local publishing houses, which institution has for a number of years devoted thirty minutes of its work day to devotional service. The secretary of the institution, Rev. R. H. Boyd, calls it the "hour of prayer." He declared only recently that it was the Boards' collection to the Lord. They have always had special prayer-meetings in which the various employees were allowed to speak, but for the past eight days the religious fervor has been so manifest that several conversions have been the result. These services are conducted by Rev. W. S. Ellington, who has been assisted for the past several months by Dr. N. H. Pius. It is said that at the present rate of conversion there will hardly be an unconverted employee in that mammoth concern within the next two or three months. REPORT GROUNDLESS. The reported running down of a little white boy by a big auto car which was charged to a colored chauffeur, and which is said to have happened last week, seems groundless. A careful investigation, and a continued search for the police, failed up to the first of the week to locate the suspected party. The accident is supposed to have happened at 7 o'clock last Friday, near the corner of Broadway and Lyle avenue. The boy who was hurt was a messenger boy; he was taken to the St.Thomas Infirmary, where he was examined by Drs. Paul Witt and B. A. Cooke. ANTIOCH MISSION Antioch Mission is getting along nicely. The Christian Endeavor met at its usual nour with a large crowd and an excellent program was rendered as follows: Recitation by Bessie L. Ray; solo by Beatrice Douglass; recitation by Addie Douglass; recitation by Emma Hopkins; Scripture by Mrs. W. M. Douglass. Rev. C. C. Cole, of the First Baptist Church, made an interesting talk to the young people. Rev. B. M. Hughs preached a soul-stirring sermon, theme, "I wonder who told him my name." WRONG VIEW OF THE CENSUS. No Harm Can Come to Any Person Who Answers the Questions. Washington, D. C., March 2, 1910. Letters from the census supervisors to the United States Census Bureau show the erroneous apprehension of a considerable element of the population that their answer to the enumerators' questions in the next census, beginning April 15, this year, will cause increased taxation, legal entanglements, or injurious consequences to their persons and property. In order to quiet such unfounded fears, which would, unless removed materially, affect the accuracy of the census, the bureau has prepared an official statement relative to the decennial census, its origin, purpose, and uses. This statement should furnish complete assurance to those concerned that information given the enumerators is held by the Census Bureau in the striotest confidence with reference to the identity of the informants, ence to the identity of the informants, reau and commanded by the laww of the United States.

In keeping with the notices sent out by the Secretary of the Congress Move- ment, urging all Baptist Sunday- schools to elect their delegates and send in their names go that they could be enrolled for the coming session of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress, which is to meet in Atlan- ta, Ga., May 25-30, many of the Nash- ville Sunday-schools will. begin to elect their various delegates Sunday. This election will continue Sunday after Sunday until practically all of the forty-two Baptist Sunday-schools in the city will have elected a dele- gate or representative for this meet- ing. From present indications, it ap- pears that a special Pullman car has already been arranged for, to carry the representatives and Congress dele gates to Atlanta, ‘Assurances Were given out at the Sunday-School Congress headquarters this week, that a sufficient number to fill one car has already decided to make the trip. The return of the Secretary of the Congress from an ex- tended trip, through Georgia and Alabama last week, seems to stimulate the interest in Nashville, as it was reported that the entire city of Atlan- ta and the state of Georgia were mak- ing elaborate preparations to entertain these Sunday-school workers. The leading Baptist churches in Atlanta, with their Sunday-schools, have or- ganized and divided into various com- mittees preparatory to entertain these workers, Tt is also stated at the Congress headquarters that arrangements are being made for all of the representa. tives and delegates coming from the North, which will allow a stop over privilege in Nashville, either going to or returning from the Congress, in order that they may see the beautiful city, which is known far and wide for its educational advantages.

Nearly 700 students and friends gathered at the spacious Meharry Auditorium at 11 o'clock last Sunday morning to listen to the magnificent sermon delivered by Dr. J. S. McVeety, Secretary of the Freedman Aid Society and Southern Education of Cincinnati, Ohio. His text was chosen from Matt. 5:16, "Let your light so shine before men." This subject was handled in a most scholarly manner. To make it felt the speaker thundered out the following: The kinds of religion are judged by the specimens. We see Mohammedanism, Confucianism, Catholicism and even such religions as we have in this country must all be judged by the specimens they give to the world. He insisted on courage as an instrument that should never be omitted from a student's life, as this is tremendously essential to his progress, for whatever you have done is counted for you. Your influence will be felt in proportion as you acquire the true form. His beautiful discussion was brought to a close in these stirring words: "My friends, Every moral impulse of your being goes into sunlight." The presence of such distinguished divines as the Rt. Rev. Bishops J. M. Walden, of M. E. Church, and C. H. Phillips, of the C. M. E. Church; Dr. S. M. C. B. Mason, Secretary Freedman's Aid Society, and the presidents of the various universities and colleges, of the great M. E. Church, added much to the occasion. The anthem by the university choir was delightful. At 3:30 o'clock the building was again filled to hear the addressed by Drs. M. C. B. Mason, A. P. Canther, President Central Alabama College, and J. M. Cox, President Philander Smith College, Little Rock, Ark. Dr. Mason's subject was, "Some unsolved equations." He declared that there was no organization doing more for the uplift of young men than the Young Men's Christian Association. The depth of this address was in The depth of this address was in the reach of every one. Dr. J. M. Cox, of Philander Smith College, used as his subject, "Strong Christian young men the need of the hour." This was indeed another powerful address and showed the need of the hour. The last speaker was Dr. Canther, of Central Alabama College, who for some years labored in Africa. He spoke on "Our relations to Africa." All these remarks were strong and pointing. The solo by Miss Maude Roberts added much to the service. Too much cannot be said concerning the young ladies' glee club of Walden University in rendering the special number. The Rev, Walter R. Lambert, M. D., D. D., Missionary Secretary of the M. E. Church, South, will preach the Meharry Baccalaureate Sermon on April 10th, the Sunday preceding the commencement. Dr. Lambert was for many years a medical missionary in China and Japan and was actively engaged in the hospital work in these countries. He studied medicine at Vanderbilt University during the time of Dean Hubbard's attendance there. The personal friendship between these two gentlemen has never grown cold and has continued to the present time. Dr. Lambert is especially interested in the work that is being carried on WSE BROS.

The Sunday-school, under the superintendency of Mr. Jas. Ferguson, has taken on new life and is largely attended. Mrs. L. H. C. Withers, Mrs. N. A. Anderson, Miss A. V. Howard, Miss Minnie Woodard and Mr. Jack Key went to Portland Saturday and set up a Household of Ruth Lodge. They returned Sunday morning, reporting a delightful time. They initiated 31 into the Order. Mrs. Julia McMurray, who underwent an operation for catarrh of the eye, is doing well. Miss Virginia Lyles, who has been ill for a week, is better. Dr. I. C. Ramsey has been kept busy during winter. SMYRNA NOTES. Sunday was regular preaching day at the M. E. Church, and all seemed to take advantage of the pleasant day. for the house was soon filled with an attentive audience to hear the interesting sermon preached by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Miller. The mass-meeting at the Baptist church was most interesting and much good is expected to result from it. Among those who took part in the meeting were Mrs. L. F. Smith, Revs. T. Miller, E. Ransom, D. Brown and J. B. Ridley, who came up from Nashville in the afternoon by special invitation. Miss Florence Burrus was among the visitors here Sunday. Miss Viola M. Martin, of Lascassas, closed her school at Rocky Fork last Friday with very interesting exercises. The most interesting feature of the occasion was the spelling match. Two attempts were made to find out the best speller. The first attempt ended in a tie between Mary E. Rlon and Jimnie Sue Gamble. The second between Mary E. Rlon and W. C. Haynes Lottie Louise, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jordan Baley, died last Wednesday. Mrs. Lula H. Bowen returned to her home at Triune Sunday. Miss Julia B. Smith is spending a few days at home. WALDEN UNIVERSITY NOTES. On Sunday evening last at 7:30 o'clock, before 'an audience composed of over eight hundred people at the Meharry Auditorium the cantata entitled "The Holy City" by Gaul, was rendered by the University Choral Society, under the direction of Miss Mary E. Braden, Dean of the Music Department, with Prof. I. Berry as pianist. The service was opened with prayer by Dr. Dunbar, president of Clafin University, South Carolina. The cantata, which was divided into two parts, "Contemplation" and "Adoration," was a tremendous success. The program consisted of sixteen pieces, prominent among which were choruses, solos, quartettes, etc. Special mention must be made of Miss Maud Roberts, who sang "Eye hath not seen," taken from Heb. 11:10. In this Miss Roberts was at her best, and with her very charming voice claimed the admiration of the entire audience. Miss Sue Ella Brown, the wonderful contralto, had no difficulty in making it known that she was there, for in her usual graceful and pleasing style, she uttered the strains of music like a "Miriam." Misses Gertrude Lewis and Arzella Ellis also made special claim on the audience. The harmony imparted by these ladies won for them prominent places in the musical world. Of the male voices, Messrs. H. H. Walker, J. T. West and L. Napier Bass need special mention for their very valuable contribution to the success of the occasion. This is an annual exhibition of the talents of the students of the Music Department of Walden University and every year these entertainments are patronized with equal interest. At this rendition we were favored with the presence of such distinguished men as Bishop J. M. Walden, Dr. M. C. B. Mason, Bishop Evans Tyrese, of the A. M. E. Church, and the Presidents and Deans of the Freedman's Aid Society schools. The pronouncing of the benediction by Bishop Tyrese brought this very enjoyable service to a close. SOUTH PITTSBURG NOTES.

The Serio Comic musical concer. given last Thursday night at the opera house by the Turner Normal College "Smart Set," was a decided success. The house was filled and a neat sum was realized. Miss Ruth Allison carried the audience in a storm by her matchless singing. As a soloist she is hard to excel. Miss Agnes P. Hampton seemed to be the most easily at home as she glided before the footlights. Miss Madge C. Boddie, the "lady basso," was probably the center of attraction on the stage. To her is due the credit of the success of the affair more than to any one else. Little Leon ("Midget") Saunders, the baby of the school, well sustained her reputation as the "baby elocutionist." Midget is also a singer. So well did she play her part that before she left the stage, several pieces of coin were thrown from the audience to her. Midget is the granddaughter of Bishop Evans Tyree, who also speaks sometimes. The Nightingale Quartette has more calls out of town than they can fill. They will run over to Winchester next month, where they are billed to give a big concert at the City Opera House. Turner Normal campus has already begun to put on a spring appearance. The entire student force was lined up last Saturday in giving the campus a general cleaning up. Two lawn swings have been installed on the south side, and a half dozen lawn settees have been ordered from Chicago. Commencement orations have already begun to engage the attention of the class honor people. Preparations are being made by the A. M. E. Church to celebrate Easter on an elaborate scale.

Oe eee ae Years Old, More startling evidences, more real facts and more data concerning the operation, the location of the origin of the Negro banks continues to come in to the Nashville Globe, day after day. The appearance of the Negro Bank Directory with the summary of the authorized capital stock compiled, arranged and gathered by the mana- ger of the Nashville Globe, Mr. Henry A. Boyd, has brought to light what has not hitherto been known among a large number of the race. It shows the existence of a Negro bank in the state of North Carolina which has been in operation continually since 1882, a period of 28 years. These facts make this pioneer banking con- cern now operated in the United States. In complimenting Mr. Boyd for the excellent showing he was able to make for these financial concerns, Mr. Chas. F. Dunn, the cashier of The Dime Savings Bank, at Kingston, N. C., states the following: “Kingston, N. C. “Mr. H. A. Boyd, Manager Nashville Globe: “Dear Sir: “The tabulated statement of Negro banks is splendid considering the chances you had to make it more com- plete, The banks in many instances, including ourselves, did not give you the co-operation that you deserved in the writeup, and we acknowledge our fault in the matter. I do not mind saying to you that we feel ashamed and ask many apologies to you for our tardiness. Had we taken the time to give you the exact information you asked for, the whole world would have been surprised with the figures. We are inclined to think that we were per- haps the first banking institution started in the South by colored people, we have opened and continued a pri- vate bank here as far back as 1882. This was 13 years before any white bank was established. We were issu- ing cashier's checks to white mer- chants as well as colored ones. We were chartered under the laws later and we are doing a nice business. Our institution is now planning to open branch banks in Goldsboro, Green- ville, Wilmington, Rocky Mount and Wilson, N. C. These are near-by towns with a splendid Negro popula- tion, but no Negro banks. We will be in a better position to demand de- posits and to assist in the financial development of the Negro in North Carolina, You can depend upon our co-operation in every respect is the future. “Yours truly, CHAS. F. DUNN. “Cashier, Kingston, N. C.” Mr. R. T. Hill, Cashier True Re formers Bank, located at Richmond, Va., which institution is practically the Gibraltar of the Negro banks in the United States, in complimenting the Negro Bank Directory says: “The copy of the Nashville Globe of February 18th containing the second annual bank statement is to hand. Please accept our sincere thanks for your kindness. We wish to say that the issue is a praiseworthy effort. We ar? all very much pleased with it and we promise further co-operation.” Mr. Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee, says: “The issue of your paper contain- ing the list of Negro banks was cer- tainly a real ‘scoop’ and I congratu- late you upon it. Such a list as this is bound to be of great value and help to all of us.” Mr. R. 8. Darnaby, of Ann Arbor, Michigan, says: “Send me a copy of the Nashville Globe of February 18th. I have heard considerable talk about the Directory of Negro Banks, compiled by Mr. Boyd, and I am very anxious to read the same,” While a ringing indorsement comes from Mr. C. A. Dickson, in which he declares that “no other agency now at work is calculated to do more real work or uplifting for the Negroes in the United States than these splendid efforts being put forth from time to time by your wide-awake, high-class journal.” Other indorsements will be given ag they reach the compiler, FRANKLIN NOTES. There was six o'clock dinner given by Mr. Geo. W. Patton Friday even- ing in honor of the bride and groom. Games were the feature of the even- ing.

Happiness in life is of such momen- tous importance that it becomes all to study well the conditions of happt- ness, and to none does this truth ap- ply itself with greater force than to Mr. John T.

Both the ‘bride and her maid of honor, Miss Hf fle Gasey, were gowned in white silk Mr. Geo. W. Patton was best man.
