AMONG THE NEGRO BUSINESS MEN OF NASHVILLE.
Determined to Have the Normal School.
PLANS PERFECTED FOR A HOUSE TO HOUSE CANVASS—SOLICITORS ARE TO START OUT MONDAY MORNING — WANT TO RAISE $10,000-FUNDS TO BE USED TO PURCHASE LAND AND ERECT BUILDINGS—THE PEOPLE INTERESTED—BIG RALLY AT AUDITORIUM SUNDAY, MARCH 27.
If one is to judge the success of the efforts put forth by the people of Nashville, who are at work trying to raise sufficient bonus to have the Industrial and Normal School located somewhere in Davidson County by the activity of the business men, who are at work and who have almost doubled their efforts in the past ten days, they would readily conclude that the state officials or whoever has the power of locating the school, would give it to Nashville as a reward for the good work being done along this line. Meeting after meeting has been held in such rapid succession that every plan now for a successful canvass of the city and county is complete. At least 100 men and women are said to be ready to open the subscription campaign on Monday morning. The canvass will last ten days, and the aim is to raise $10,000 by subscription or pledges, which money is to be used to purchase a farm and buildings to be held as inducements to the Board of Education to secure the school for Middle Tennessee. A house to house canvass is to be made; subscriptions and pledges from one dollar up to a thousand or more will be accepted by the canvassing committee, who is authorized to take only subscriptions and pledges in writing on blanks, now being prepared for them.
Daily reports of each canvasser are to be made to the headquarters of the committee, which will be at the office of Taylor & Company, undertakers, 449 Fourth ave, North. A large sign or some devise showing how the goal is being reached will be hung on the front of the building. Everybody is expected to help make the effort a success. The campaign is to close with a rousing mass-meeting at the Ryman Auditorium on the following Sunday. All will be invited to come and hear the final results. Every church in the city with its pastor and church choir is expected to attend, in fact, the Methodist and Baptist Ministers' Conferences have endorsed the entire plan, promising their full support. All of this is said to mean much for the educational interest of Nashville and Middle Tennessee.
INDUSTRIAL AND NORMAL EDUCATION
The public has possibly been awaiting some important news concerning the activity of the special committees appointed some time ago to look after the locating of the Normal and Industrial School provided for by the recent legislature. A Globe reporter writes that the plans and preparations made some time ago to secure the location of this school for Davidson County have not lagged one whit. Three rousing meetings have been held within the past week. The Committee on Location and Site appears to be the most active. They held an important meeting on Thursday night, March 10th, at the office of Taylor & Co. Good attendance and a splendid meeting are reported to have been the result, together with several selections of sites, any of which would be favorable and well-suited for such a school.
On last Monday night another meeting was held. This was a mass-meeting and judging from the amount of enthusiasm noticeable, it appears that all Nashville is interested in the location of the school and would offer all kinds of inducement if it were put in Davidson County, preferably in close proximity to Nashville. A special party composed of some of the leading business men in the city vis-
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1910.
ited several sites purposely to ascertain the facts as reported by this special committee. At the meeting last night it was unanimously decided that a house to house canvass would be inaugurated and that every man of prominence would be buttonholed, if the term might be used, in the interest of the Agricultural and Normal College.
It is plainly admitted that the people of Davidson County are forcibly impressed with the Industrial and Normal educational idea for the Negro boys and girls of this state, so they have planned a mammouth mass-meeting which will be held at the Ryman Auditorium on Easter Sunday afternoon at 3:30. The auditorium has been secured, music will be on hand and what has already been acceded as the greatest demonstration ever made by all the Negroes of Nashville along one line is assured. It seems that everybody is working on the loveeast order. Harmony prevails and those who have a talent seemingly offer it to be used in the interest of securing for Davidson County this much-needed state school. A list of the committees, officers and citizens who are working in behalf of the school was published some time ago in the Nashville Globe, but since then the list has almost trebled. In fact, it would appear that every Negro in Nashville is a committee of one. If not already pressed into service, they will be within the next four or five days. The plan is outlined by the hard-working ones, who seem never to tire of talking Normal School, and they are making a sharp, hot and effective campaign, so that the officers of Tennessee, those who are to pass on the site, will know that Nashville is interested and the whole county is working in the interest of what will prove to be helpful to the state. They are relying but very little upon the arguments heretofore produced, showing Nashville's geographical advantages, but it seems that they have decided that in spite of this and their prior claims they will nail an other peg down, hold what they have and establish a clearer title for her right to claim the first Agricultural Normal and Mechanical School to be located in the Volunteer State for Negroes. The people who are at the head of this movement have been greatly encouraged by messages from other states declaring that they rejoice to see Tennessee awakening to the sense of her duty towards the Negro voters and taxpayers.
DR. AND MRS. PHILLIPS SEND
CARD OF THANKS
Through the columns of the Globe, which goes into nearly every Nashville home, we wish to speak just a word to our friends.
During the recent celebration of our matrimonial rites friends were indeed kind to us, and especially those of Nashville. Generously and graciously they remembered us by tokens and other good expressions. The shipment, however, of the former to this city left Nashville many weeks ago, but was delayed and only reached us a few days ago. Hence when it did arrive, with the names of donors, etc., it was rather late to send acknowledgment cards, so through the columns of this journal we wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to one and all. The deepest gratitude of both of us goes out to them for the tokens and other expressions of remembrance.
And finally, with our very best regards we are still the grateful recipients.
DR. AND MRS. C. H. PHILLIPS, Jr.
Tyler, Tex., March 10.
GRAND CHANCELLOR OF ARKAN-
SAS
Mr. Henry Avant, an attorney-at-law and the Grand Chancellor of the K. of P. of Arkansas, who is head-quartered at Helena, spent Tuesday in Nashville attending the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Winter, he being their son-in-law. He was for years the principal of the Helena Academy.
EAGLE CLUB
The Eagle Club, C. of C., held their monthly meeting March 8, at the home of Miss Rena Knox, Chapel avenue. The meeting was opened by the President. Roll was called and a collection of $3.20 was taken. An unusual number of applications were received by the secretary during the past month, which were highly recommended and appreciated by the members of the club.
After all business was transacted a two-course menu was served. Games and dancing were features of the evening. The Eagle Club Quartet rendered one of their best selections. Music was furnished by Mr. Syms.

SECRETARY OF THE NATIONAL WORK—SUCCEEDS THE LATE DR. A. N. McEWEN—SELECTION MADE TUSDAY—REV. T. J. SEARCY, THE PPRESIDENT OF THE BOARD, PRESIDED AT THE MEETING—DR. GRIGGS WELL KNOWN IN NASHVILLE — HAS PASTORED HERE SEVERAL YEARS.
Rev, S. E. Griggs was elected Secretary of the Educational Board of the National Baptist Convention at the Executive Committee meeting of that Board in this city on Tuesday. The meeting was held in the office of the Superintendent of Missions, at 409
REV. SUTTON E. GRIGGS,
New Secretary of the Educational
Board of the National Baptist
Convention.
Gay street. The election was made to fill the vacancy made in that office by the death of Rev. A. N. McEwen, who on account of failing health was prevented from entering actively upon his work.
The committee elected the Rev. S. E. Griggs, of this city, by promoting him from the assistant or field secretary to the secretaryship. At the meeting were Rev. T. J. Searcy, of Memphis, Chairman of the Board; Revs. E. M. Lawrence and Wm. Haynes, Treasurer of the Board, who make up the Committee of management.
Rev. Griggs has been at work since the last annual meeting of the National Baptist Convention, but will now start out according to reports to bring about the actual locating of the much-talked of and long authorized National Theological Seminary. Dr. Searcy is quoted as having given out while here a statement that the seminary would certainly open in October of this year. The plan is to raise at least $5,000 in cash and perhaps $10,000 by September, so as to get the $15,000 promised some three years ago by the Home Mission Society of New York. EEducational rallies are to be held in all parts of the United States to get this sum of money. Five of these meetings are planned for Tennessee and as many in the other states. Rev. Mr. Griggs' ability as a speaker of note and a writer is expected to help him much in this new work which he takes up.
The Waco (Tex.) Herald, commenting upon Dr. Griggs' recent visit to that city in the interest of his work had the following to say concerning his address there before his people. "Sutton E. Griggs, who spoke yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the New Hope Baptist Church, was
classed as probably the strongest Negro speaker who has ever appeared in the city. He talked along practical lines and yet his eloquence was burning. Among the white men who heard Dr. Griggs yesterday afternoon was Dr. R. W. Park, and the latter said this morning: 'It was without doubt one of the best talks I have ever heard. Dr. Griggs is a speaker of great force, very much in earnest and he ought to do a great good among the Negroes. He carries his audience with him all the way and is really one of the few Negro great orators I have heard.' Dr. Griggs' new position does not necessitate his leaving the city, as the headquarters of the board are to be in Nashville, where he will continue his residence. His full time will be given to his new work. With the consent of the First Baptist Church, East Nashville, of which he has been pastor for the last ten years, he will have an assistant who will take care of the interests of the church while he devotes himself to the work of the board.
"SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER."
Not since the rendition of "Mother Goose" at Fisk last year has there been such wide-spread interest in any of the many affairs as was shown in the five-act drama "She Stoops to Conquer," that was presented on last Friday evening and Saturday matinee by the Junior Class. The entertainment, although late in opening and quite lengthy, proved very high class and entertaining in every act. The size of the audiences, at both evening and matinee were evidences of this. During the evening a new star, a soloist, Mr. Leon O'Hara, shot forth on the horizon of Fisk's musical sky, who made a hit singing "If I had a thousand lives to live." He sang with such ease, earnestness and with so much class that he was compelled to respond to an encore, singing "My Rosary." The play was a production of Dr. Goldsmith and was given in the Memorial Channel.
The characters were: Sir Charles Marlow, A. M. Lyle; Young Marlow, C. H. Wesley; Hardcastle, H. P. Cooper; Hastings, C. H. Payne; Tony Lumpkin, J. C. Olden; Diggory, J. E. Stamps; Roger, H. W. Calhoun; Dick, R. N. Arthurton; Thomas, J. S. Brabant; Landlord, W. H. McCree; Slang, W. G. Upshaw; Jeremy, L. J. Searcy; Bearward, S. H. Rosenberg; Mrs. Hardcastle, Miss Hodges; Miss Neville, Miss Caldwell; Miss Hardcastle, Miss Parks; Dolly, Miss Tucker, Director, Mrs. Mary L. Horne.
The Fisk-Meharry Orchestra, which furnished music for the occasion was composed of Welters, first violin; Miss Holland, second violin; Miss Edna Cameron, mandolin; Miss Bessie Williamson, mandolin; Bailey, cornet; Bates, trombone; Clayborne, drums; Searcy, piano. Much credit is due to Mr. R. N. Arthurton, business manager, who seems to know how and what to do to make the people come out. There was a general whispering of compliments on all sides for the entire company.

Board of Directors Made Choice This Week.
MISS LUCY HALE TAPLEY SUCCEEDS THE LATE MRS. HARRIET GILES—NEW EXECUTIVE HAS HAD MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE—HAS BEEN CONNECTED WITH THE SCHOOL MANY YEARS—THE HISTORY OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF SPELMAN SEMINARY MAKES FASCINATING STORY.
Atlanta, Ga.—At a meeting of the Board of Directors of Spelman Seminary, of this city, the vacancy, caused by the death of Miss Harriet E. Giles, who served as president for a number of years and who died last October, was filled. Her successor is Miss Lucy Hale Tapley, who for some time has been Dean of the Seminary, and who was formerly Superintendent of the Teachers' Professional Department. The election of Miss Tapley as president of this, the largest female school operated for Negroes in the United States, is regarded here as a wise one. Miss Tapley has been connected with the school for a number of years; in fact, she belongs in the class with the founders and is regarded as one of the most competent and well-experienced educators in the Southland. It is not expected that there will be any great change in the management of the Seminary, which has been in operation in this city since early after the Emancipation. This school is one of the few remaining exclusively under the management of the American Baptist Home Mission Society, of New York. The other female school that is so well known is the Hartshorn Memorial College, of Richmond, Va. The date of Miss Tapley's inauguration has not been definitely fixed as far as could be learned, but the announcement is expected to be made in the next few days.
While Miss Packard was on a trip South in the interest of the Woman's American Baptist Home Mission Society, her serious illness at New Orleans made it necessary for Miss Giles to join her. During the long days of convalescence their souls were deeply stirred by the pathos of the lot of the Negro woman. In their ears sounded insistently the Macedonia cry, which they felt they must heed. Their New England friends disapproved, telling them that they were needed at home, that younger women were better fitted for such a field Miss Packard had now reached her fifty-seventh year. Remonstrances were in vain. Deeper and deeper, even with agonizing force, pressed the conviction. Woe unto me if I obey not the call.
The Woman's American Baptist Home Mission Society finally promised to commission them as teachers in the south, if they would raise among the churches their initial salary. The task was undertaken; it proved difficult. There came a night on which hung the decision whether to go or stay. After prayers and tears they had privately agreed to accept as a revelation of the will of God for them the action of the Baptist church in Medford, where they had been invited to present their cause. The church, although a small one, gave them fifty dollars and cheered them with a God-speed. The closed door opened on this hinge, and through it they passed. Those who then said: "What folly!" now exclaim, "What faith!"
The story of their arrival in Georgia, of their eager welcome by Father Quarles, and by Dr. White, of Augusta, of the dreary basement, and of the humble beginning and marvellous growth of Spelman Seminary is a twice-told tale.
After ten years there came a crisis. Miss Packard died. She had said when weakness was coming upon her, "The school is not mine; it is the Lord's; He will care for His own." He gave strength to Miss Giles bravely to take up the burden.
Packard and Miss Giles were

BRILLIANT RECEPTION.
tions, the stellar dignity of those
appearing on the program and the at-
tractive arrangement of the whole
marked the magnificicnt event of the
reception given by the members of
the First Baptist Church, in honor of
their popular pastor, Rev. W, S. El-
lington, A. B., D. D. The occasion
was in commemoration of the tenth
anniversary of the pastorate of Rev.
Ellington at this church.
The program preceding the recep-
tion consisted ef several numbers and
Was permeated with h Ipful thoughts
cleverly rec.ted, Dr. J.,B. Singleton,
manager of the choir, spoke of Rev.
Ellington as a lover of good music.
The speaker, in a few but. well-chos-
en words, told how the pastor was al-
ways ready to lend a hand in making
the music an interesting feature of
the services. Prof. J. D. Crenshaw,
Editor of the National Baptist Re-
view, Sunerintendent of the First
Baptist Church Sunday-School and a
man of exceptional oratorical ability,
charmed, the audience-by an address
entitled, “The Strength of a Man.”
The pastor's gentlemanly and Chris-
tian charact®r was treated cleverly
under this subject. Mr. Thos. W. An-
derson, president of the Baraca Class,
of which Rey, Ellington is the teach-
er, ably represented the cass and
oo the talent, virtue and phil-
osophy of their leader. Miss Loure-
tha U. Chambers private secretary to
Rey. Ellington, in an intelligent
speech gave the business side of
‘the pastor’s life under the subject
“Rey, Ellington, as an editor.” Her
article was filled with rhetorical dis-
plays and was much enjoyed. Sister
Nellie Seay, the mother of the church,
in representing tho Ladies Aid So-
ciety, delighted every one with a talk
showing an intel’ectual ability sel
dom manifested in one of her age
Before leaving the platform she pre-
sented the pastor with a shower bo-
quet consisting of ten white roses,
each flower representing a year un-
blemished and characterized by right
living and spiritual peace existing be-
tween pastor and members. The
last speaker, Dr. A. M. Townsend,
took for his subject, “The Mission of
the Negro Ministry.” He spoke in
commendable terms of the ministry
of Rey. Ellington in particular. The
excellency with which he handled his
subject was enjoyed by all.
Two musical numbers rendered by
Mrs, H. A, Cameron and Mr. Roland
W. Hayes respectively, were highly
appreciated. In fact, the entire pro-
gram, opening with an invocation by
Dr. R. H. Boyd and ending with a
response by Rev. Ellington, in which
he thanked the speakers and the
members for their tokens of appre-
ciation, was one round of admiration.
However, the climax of the evening
was reached in the lectureroom of
the church, where the guests, num:
bering several hundred, repaired aft.
er the rendition of the program.
Here around many tables banked with
a profusion of beautiful flowers and
attractively decorated with potted
plants and ribbon, the guests were
seated. The center-table, the one de-
signed for the pastor, had suspended
above it a large aeroplane, from the
corners of which long streamers of
pink and white ribbon extended to
each corner of the table. At the head
of this table were seated Rey. and
Mrs. Filington, constituting a center
of interest around whom good
cheer, mirth and admiration reigned
supreme. while the elaborate supper
was being served.
Special caterers had been secured
for the occasion and they spared no
pains in making their part of the af
fair come up to the standard. A vari.
ety of delicacies, palatable and en-
joyable, was served, with a delicious
ice-course in which the predominatiag
colors, pink and white, were shown,
The affair goes into history as an
honor well deserved by a man whose
Christian character and inspiring ca-
reer has endeared him to the entire
community,

NORMAL SCHOOL SITE. |
The committee with several of the
officers of the organization of citizens
who are locking after Nashville's in-
terest in trying to induce the State
Board of Education to locate the pro-
posed Industrial and Normal School
for Negroes in Davidson County,
spent the afternoon of Saturday look-
ing over about four farms, either of
which would be a suitable place for
the location of the school. The farms
are located across the Cumberland
river, in close proximity to the city,
just far enough out to make the
school a desirable abode, yet suff
ciently away from the busy life and
noise not to interfere with the
student life on the farm, So far as
could be learned, the committee has

not yet recommended either of the
four places for acceptance, but rath-
er fee's inclined to submit the four for
their selection. It was given out,
however, that in each farm there are
more than 100 acres. On each of
these farms the land on the whole is
good for farming, truck gardening and
pasture for stock. Water is said to
be in sufficient quantities on each
place. On two of the farms inspected
by the committee and citizens there
was a building commodious in size
that would serve for a while as a
dormitory for the students.

AN ENEMY TO PEACE.
In the issue of the 15th the Nashville Tennessee has another one of those editorials for which it seems to have a hankering. In an attempt to censure the Nashville American for advising the democrats of Tennessee to lay aside their petty differences and go to work for harmony, it was necessary for that pretentiously immaculate journal to wring in the Negro to finish its paragraph, when as a matter of fact, the Negroes of this state have nothing whatever to do with the fight between the democratic factions. They have, however, reached a conclusion, and all the mean and unprincipled things The Tennessee may say will not change their course.
For over forty years the Negroes of Tennessee followed blindly the beck and call of the managers of the republican party. They were kicked from pillar to post between elections, and were only permitted to gain their equilibrium in time to see the olive branch a few days before election. But they have awakened to the folly of such practices, and henceforth will refuse to be the fuel to make the fire to bake the pie for the professional grabber's belly.
The Negroes of Tennessee have decided to vote for the men who stand for the development of Tennessee and who show a disposition to deal justly with all the people. It will not be a case of who shall be appointed to a federal job, but of the development of the resources of this commonwealth where they live; of the establishing of schools in the cities, the towns and the counties, where their children can be educated. In short, they have become converts to the idea that peace and prosperity at home for the masses is better than federal appointments for a few, and those journals that would divert them from such a conclusion are enemies to the people they serve.
A THING TO REMEMBER.
It is alleged that on Thursday, the tenth day of March, nineteen hundred and ten, one Mrs. Barber Smith, of Birmingham, Ky., was in the city of Nashville, Tenn., and she had planned to return to her home on the date above stated. She learned that the new boat, "City of Nashville," was to leave that day, and she accordingly sent her trunk down and had it
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1910.
checked, but to her utter surprise, when she went to purchase a ticket she was informed that she could not go on that boat. If this, report is true it is one of the boldest outrages ever perpetrated. A steam boat is a common carrier, and while our laws do permit such carriers to compel Negroes to pay first-class fare for second-class service, they do not allow them to refuse absolutely to carry passengers, no matter if they are as black as two midnights; and the claim can not be set up that all the berths were taken, for the allegation is made that the lady's trunk had been checked, but was put off the boat.
The thing we wish our church and society leaders to remember is that in a few weeks the picnic season will be on, and each person contemplating making arrangements for outings should bear in mind the incident above mentioned. If the officials of this boat are guilty of the charge made against them they do not want to haul the picnics of Negro churches and societies.
While we are discussing the picnic business it would not be out of place to mention the fact that the picnic habit is a bad habit anyhow. The business men can attest to the truthfulness of this statement. The severe winter we have just passed through has stagnated business in all lines, and as the weather opens up there will be a great activity in the commercial world. Every man and every woman will be needed at their respective positions, and when one employee loses a day the institution he is working for is weakened by his absence. Granting half-holidays on Saturdays during the summer months is becoming more general, and men, especially those who are at the heads of families, should let that, in connection with the regular holidays, be sufficient time for recreation.
MAKE HAY NOW
The dispatches state that the immigration tide is soon to be diverted to New Orleans, which means that hundreds of thousands of foreign-born people will be dumped on the South, and this horde is to be pitted against the Negro as a laborer.
This is a significant move, but if the Negro will stick to his job he will come out alright. But he must be on the alert. There is plenty of work to be done, and the Negro can do it if he will, but if he will not, then the Italian, the Pole, the Scandinavian, etc., will do it, and woe be unto him who fails to shut the door while the bird is in the cage.
The Negroes can buy a little land now, and establish themselves permanently. Waiting for a better time will result in losing the last chance, for the foreigner will buy it, and when he gets the land he will never feel that he needs to sell as much as a square foot of it. There are no signs of land getting cheaper, nor of wages generally increasing to a point where a dollar will be more productive than it is at this time. When wages go up, if you will stop to think, you will recall that the prices of the necessities of life have already increased far greater proportionately. So, he who would have his posterity be in a state of comfort must prepare now for them to be able to do so in the years to come.
MR. COLE A REGULAR.
The appointment of Mr. Ernest G. Cole as a regular letter carrier is another example of what comes to the young man who hustles. Mr. Cole was a substitute carrier for three years, but he never for once showed signs of discouragement. He stuck to his post and proved his worth.
What Mr. Cole has done can be done by other young men, but it can only be done as he did it. Nothing is to be had in this day without an effort on the part of him who wants it, and the race for a job is getting swifter every day.
Those Negro papers that were the loudest in their laudation of President Taft before election and shortly afterwards are beginning to lose faith in him. We sized up the chief executive after he made that Kansas speech.
Our esteemed contemporary, The Enterprise, Muskegee, Okla., is fattening its columns weekly from the Globe, but you cannot tell it unless you compare the two papers. The old saying that "stolen fruit is always sweetest" is still adhered to by our new neighbor.
With Henson firing from New York, Governor Brown and Mayor Maddox striking the steel in Georgia, and the committee holding his feet to the fire in Washington, Captain Peary may soon feel the need of more North Pole temperature.
When a wagon makes a lot of noise you can rest assured that there is nothing in it. The Nashville Clarion could profit by remembering that truth, and that there is a difference in making guesses and answering questions.
EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS
When you find a man that thinks that he is always right and that you are always wrong, don't try to convince him; just let him him alone.—The Advocate Verdict, Harrisburg, Pa.
***
Mothers and fathers ought to be more careful about how they talk before their children. But we understand that there are some mothers who go so far as to encourage their children to be insulting to teachers. We want to make this statement, that whoever does such a thing, you are to that extent destroying the very life of such a child.—McDowell Times, Keyston, W. Va.

Forty Years a Policeman.
Mr. Henry Carroll for forty years has been on the police force in Charleston. It speaks well for a volered man and shows what kind of stuff he is made of. All the Negro wants is a chance and the proper encouragement and he will make good. We are informed that Mr. Carroll has made an enviable record; he has served faithfully, obeying all laws and rules laid down for him. It does not seem under such trying ordeals that a Negro should make such a record. It seems as if the record made by Carroll should inspire the city authorities to appoint one or two more good Negroes on the force, giving him a little recognition in this way won't hurt, but instead help a good and honest cause along—Charleston Messenger, Charleston, S. C.
**
We hope every Negro young man in Columbia and in the entire state has read or will read the lengthy editorial in last Sunday's State paper on "The City and the Vagrant Negro," which editorial we would like to reproduce in these columns. Said editorial is logical and to the point, and we believe written in a spirit of fairness and for the real and lasting good of the colored man. There are times when we fairly shudder for many of the young men of our race, quite a number of whom seem to be entirely satisfied at leading lives of idleness, which in itself breeds crime, because of their lack of industry and their not caring for regular employment. Our young men in the towns and cities should be taught from every fireside, from every pulpit and from every schoolhouse that it is criminal to be idle and not working for an honest living.—The People's Recorder, Orangeburg, S. C.
* * *
Some of the men of means of this city give as their reason for not going into business of any kind that will be of benefit to themselves and other members of the race, that the men who usually start these businesses are not worth anything and they do not care to be associated in business with men who haven't any money. Well, that is all right, you have a right to that idea of the matter. But why is it that the men who have the money don't come together and start something? We have in mind now several individuals who are financially able to start any kind of business they decide to, or we expect it would be better to say, any kind of business, for they may never decide to start any kind. If these people who have money would start a business of some kind with their capital, other members of the race would patronize them, and would not be displeased at not having a part in the business. The thing we want is business of some kind owned by our people—The Interstate Reporter, Helena, Ark.
Put Henson in the Picture.
The Nashville American had in its Thursday morning issue a cartoon of Explorer Peary at the North Pole, but with him in that representation there was no Henson. That was a bit unfair and was tinged with selfishness or overweaning egotism to leave Peary's intrepid companion, Matthew Henson, out of the picture. That was leaving the statue of Brutus, wrought in gold, out of the procession representing those who have struck heroically for liberty.
If Peary did reach the top of the earth, he did so in company with the only other American who can now, Cook having been eliminated, lay claim to that distinction. Those two men, Henson and Peary, Negro and Caucasian, fought together in making their passage northward amid the dangers of that snowy and icy land of desolation, and if there was any conquering done they conquered together. If the goal of their ambition was reached, they reached it together. If the story of their success is established, it will be established by their combined data, exhibits and testimony. There is no separating the two men. There is no earthly way of getting Peary to the Pole without Henson. The two men did the act together—the nailing of "Old Glory" to the Pole.
When the cartoonist put his conception of that wonderful feat of human endurance into lines and perspectives he should be fair enough to outline the conquering black man who can not be left out without invalidating the picture. The impressible Negro was there, as he has been everywhere. So put him there, Mr. Cartoonist, Mr. Historian, and Mr. Everybodyelse, for there he was good and true. Put him in the picture.
INDORSES DIRECTORY.
Mr. C. H. Moore in an indorsement of the Negro Bank Directory, which appeared in the issue of The Globe under date of February 18th, and which means a great deal because of the importance of the position the author holds with the race, states the following:
"I am now prepared to answer your question as to what I think of your bank-directory effort. I think it is a fine showing and your research deserves much praise and credit. The figures and data are doubtless an eyeopener to many, who have not kept pace with this phase of the Negro's advancement. I am glad to see that you have not overshot the mark, as is done in too many cases by some of our enthusiastic and over-zealous writers and speakers in recounting the progress of the race. Yes, you are in fact under the mark, somewhat, which is not your fault. Congratulating you upon your success in the venture and hoping that you and yours are well I remain

Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1, by a male quartet DR. HENKY E. KREBBIEL, "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 enghility, perfection of unance and precision. Save its or its vital human quality, which lifts it above all musical products, its harmony sounds like that of a well-tuned organ."
This recognition puts our Folk Songs side by side with the word's greatest musical achievements.
This music is suitable for the parlor, the school, the church.

Mr. William Jenkins, an industrious colored farmer, of the Needmore vicinity, was married last Sunday in South Clarksville to Miss Ellen Hutchinson. The ceremony was performed by Rev. C. H. Boone.

Gifted with many graces of body, brain and heart, this little girl slowly but surely yielded to the shadows that deepened to the blackness of death.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 18, 1910.
MEMBERS OF THE GALLANT
TWENTY-FIFTH
Passed Through Nashville a Few Weeks Ago.
Two non-commissioned officers of the Twenty-fifth Infantry passed through Nashville several weeks ago. It will be remembered that it was this infantry that incurred the displeasure of the administration during Ex-President Roosevelt's time. These two members were seen by a Globe reporter upon their arrival in Nashville, at their hotel, where he learned that one was Sergeant George M. Wright, of Company M, who enlisted in 1898; the other was Corporal David C. Austin, of Company L, who enlisted the same year. These two companies are now stationed at Fort George Wright, Washington. It was at this fort that these two companies gained such an enviable record that it called forth the praise of the entire state, the city of Seattle and all the official family. It is said that their manly conduct and soldierly bearing have endeared them to the hearts of the entire Northwest. These two non-commissioned officers were en route to their homes in Alabama; Sergeant Wright lives in Selma, Ala., while Corporal Austin resides at Birmingham. Both are on a furlough of three months. They have travelled much and are splendid representatives of the intellectual style of young men now entering the army. They are well pleased with Nashville's showing in every respect.
ROGER WILLIAMS NOTES
As was forecasted by the writer, Rev. H. L. Morehouse, D. D., Corresponding Secretary, and Rev. A. S. Hobart, D. D., Chairman of the Executive Committee of the American Baptist Home Mission Society, visited Roger Williams and made a thorough inspection, both of the class-room work ad the buildings and campus. They were pleased with what they saw, and the reports of the progress of the work and its general management. There is reason for believing that much good will result from their presence here.
During the day a meeting of the Trustees Board was held in the parlor of the girls' dormitory, and a number of items of business was discussed. The following members of the Board were present: Revs. Wm. Haynes, W. S. Ellington, E. W. D. Isaac, Messrs. W. T. Hightower, Benjamin Carr, E. M. Lawrence, Dr. G. H. Bandy, A. M. Townsend, A. B. Hill, C. C. Slaughter and President Johnson, ex-officio. Before their departure at the close of the Board meeting, all assembled in chapel and listened to encouraging speeches by Messrs. Morehouse, Hobart and Slaughter. It was our good fortune also to be favored with the presence of Rev. N. H. Pius, of the Teacher-Training Course of the National Baptist Publishing Board, and our clever and genial newspaper man, Prof. J. D. Crenshaw, Editor of The Review.
Our regular March rhetorical rendered by the second academic class proved to be quite a success to the institution. Among many others in the large and appreciative audience were Dr. and Mrs. Brown, of Oklahoma.
After the toilsome and laborious work consumed by the second term, a holiday was given to the students. On the afternoon of the same day a Japanese tea was served, consisting of a two-course menu. It was enjoyed by all.
It was quite a treat for the school to be visited by Mrs. Williams, of Hopkinsville, Ky., sister of our esteemed president, who chanced to stop in this city while en route to Columbia.
We regret very much the absence of Mr. R. O. McMillan, who left last Tuesday for St. Maurice, La.

Sunday evening we had the pleasure of listening to a very fascinating sermon delivered by Prof. T. W. Sherard, A. M., President of Homer College, Homer, La. He remained a few days with us, after which he departed for home.

PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
The Pearl High School Glee Club is making elaborate preparation for its annual Spring concert. Many new and catchy songs are in hand. The club is very strong in its personnel, every part being ably represented.
The most pleasant event of the week was a visit from State Superintendent, R. L. Jones, on Wednesday. Superintendent Jones took for the theme of his talk, "Standard of Measure." All things in life must have a unit of measure—yard stick for cloth, gallon for liquids, etc.,—but man must be measured by his ability to render service. Service must encounter struggles. Without a struggle, there is no excellence. There is strength in contest. Struggle is the greatest incentive to prompt men to action and service. Life is a battle and every man, a soldier. He who serves humanity best makes the best soldier. Superintendent Jones told several stories from real life, showing that poverty is no disgrace, and that while each boy and girl, no doubt, has a vision—hoping some day that he or she might have wealth and opulence
—the realization of such a vision might only tend to his own destruction. Nevertheless, his hope was that each pupil should know the value of a dollar when measured by his own muscle and brawn. An humble citizen, whether he be a laborer on the farm or in the factory, if he does his best, is better than a millionaire, who surfeits in inherited wealth and renders nothing of service to humanity. Three young women from the Methodist Training School looked in upon our work. This is the second visit from the same ladies, and their return visit was indicative of real interest in our work. We were also glad to welcome four young men of the Junior Class of Meharry Medical College and three of the same class from Roger Williams University.

FISK ALUMNI NOTICE.
In order that there might be no misunderstanding or misinterpretation of the invitations to the Fisk Alumni affair that were sent out, Dean H. H. Wright states that wherever the invitation has been received by members of the association with "Mr. and Mrs." omitted, it is to be understood that both husband and wife are cordially invited. This leaving off of the title Mr. and Mrs. was an unintentional oversight on the part of the clerk who addressed the invitations, together with the fact that in many instances the clerk was not familiar with whether the parties had married since leaving school or were single.
It is hoped by Dean Wright that this explanation will be sufficient, as he only learned yesterday morning that some misconstruction had been put upon the invitations sent out in this way.

of marked individuality, of strong but differing types of character, but they were one in love and faith and zeal and in passion for souls. Of both it could be truly said that it was their meat and drink to do the will of their Father in heaven. Miss Packard was eagerly progressive, almost to the point of aggression; Miss Giles was calm, and wisely conservative. Miss Packard was an impelling, compelling March wind, albeit exceedingly tender with the shorn lamb; Miss Giles was the persuasive, all-pervasive spring sunshine. Together they laid foundations as neither alone could have done. Miss Giles was admirably adapted to hold, to develop, to perfect the organization that had been brought into existence. In this she was supported by her teachers and students, by the Home Mission Societies and the Slater and General Education Boards, and by hosts of friends. For nearly two decades, the years of Spelman's rapid material development. Miss Giles stood at the head of the institution.
The twenty-fifth anniversary brought red-letter days. Those who had fostered the growth of the school and those whose characters had been moulded therein gathered at beautiful Spelman to rejoice together in what God had wrought through two women who had broken their alabaster box for the Master.
Miss Giles opened the twenty-ninth school year in October, 1909, with her wonted gentle dignity. A month passed swiftly. The spirit of the teachers and students, the full attendance, the prospering of plans, were a deep satisfaction to her. She looked stronger and better than usual. Yet all unknown, the messenger from the celestial city was bearing to her his summons. A week of illness, a day on the border-land, and on the 12th of November the calm soul entered the glory none may know.
One great sob burst from her "dear girls" when they saw the casket that held her precious form borne from the chapel. Afterward, grouping themselves upon the campus, they sang sweetly the melodies she loved, "Swing low, sweet charlot," "Steal away to Jesus," and "The city foursquare." With mournful hearts and tearful eyes, but with deep resolves and inspiring hopes, teachers and students again took up their school work, in the quiet confidence that the God, whose the school is, is One who will never leave nor forsake.
MISSION SOCIETY.
The Ladies' Mission Society of Mt. Olive Baptist Church met March 7 in teachers' room.

This was the sisters' talent rally, which proved a decided success. The pastor made an instructive and helpful address and Mrs. Cotttrill made a short address after which a menu of two courses was served.
