LIBERTY BAPTIST CHURCH PACKED TO OVERFLOWING AT EVERY SESSION—LARGEST ATTENDANCE IN HISTORY OF CONGRESS—ENTHUSIASM RUNS HIGH—THREE SESSIONS HELD FIRST DAY—MANY PROMINENT SPEAKERS ON PROGRAM. Special to the Globe. Atlanta, Ga., May 25.—The fifth annual session of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress opened this morning in the Liberty Baptist Church under most promising conditions. The beautiful edifice where the session is being held was crowded to overflowing long before the hour for prayer, and when Rev. N. H. Pius, musical director, arose to open the meeting with a song by the one hundred and fifty voices there were as many on the outside of the building as could be crowded on the inside. The order of the morning were welcome addresses by the following: Rev. J. W. E. Bowen, Ph. D., Pres. of of Gammon Theological Seminary, who with his eloquence and scholarly discourse, represented the forward movements of one of the southern educational centers. Rev. E. R. Carter, D. D., Pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church and one of the most influential and prominent pastors in the great city of Atlanta, welcomed the delegates on behalf of the pastors of the Gate City. Dr. Carter spoke from a reasonable, logical point of view, bringing out vividly the necessity of the forward Sunday-school movement as advocated by the Congress. Rev. A. A. Mathis, D. D., delivered the welcome address, on behalf of the Organized Committees. He covered beautifully the scope of work done by these working auxiliaries. Deacon A. L. Jones, President of the City Sunday-Sunday Union, spoke in behalf of the Sunday-school interest of Atlanta. Rev. Chas. M. Dainel, D. D., (white) Pastor of the First Baptist Church, was very eloquent in his discourse; he welcomed on behalf of the true Christian white people of the South. He made a beautiful talk and pointed the Negro to the true Bible religion and the way we should help each other by it. The welcome on behalf of the Liberty Baptist Church and Sunday-School was delivered by Rev. J. W. Jackson, D. D., Pastor of the church, and Mrs. S. F. Patman, the Superintendent of the Sunday-school. History of the Congress Organization The National Baptist Sunday-School Congress was organized by the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention in co-operation with the Publishing Board of the same convention. The organization was perfected in Nashville, Tenn., where the first annual gathering was held. Foremost in this movement was the Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., LL, D., who had determined to make an organization of young people that would give more time and attention to the real Sunday-school missionary work. Dr. Boyd is the founder of the great publishing plant of the Negro Baptists. It was under him that, last year, more than twelve million copies of Sunday-school periodicals and religious helps were sent all over the world. His church and denomination connection has a membership of two million and five hundred thousand. The Sunday-School Congress proper is made up of representatives from between fifteen and eighteen thousand, with a membership of one and onehalf million. The Baptist preachers, who are directly identified in operating this Congress idea, number over twelve thousand. The second annual meeting of the Congress was held in New Orleans, La.; the third annual meeting was held in Jacksonville, Fla.; the fourth annual meeting was NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1910 held in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1909; and now, that the Congress is again in session, the activity of the workers in the organization is convincing of its forceful and beneficial results. Officials of the Congress. A striking feature is that it is not a deliberative body; it is purely an executive body whose officials are selected and not elected. The sessions are interesting, because there occurs no election of officers, the present officials having served since the organization of the movement five years ago. They are: Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., Chairman, Nashville, Tenn.; Rev. J. P. Robinson, D. D., Vice-Chairman, Little Rock, Ark.; Rev. Henry A. Boyd, Corresponding Secretary, Nashville, Tenn.; Prof. R. B. Hudson, Recording Secretary, Selma, Ala.; Prof. J. M. Easterling, Assistant Recording Secretary, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Rev. N. H. Pius, D. D., Superintendent Teacher-Training Department and Chorister, Springfield, Ohio; Rev. Wm. Beckham, D. D., Superintendent Missionary Conference, Nashville, Tenn.; Rev. W. S. Ellington, A. M. D. D. Arbiter and Blackboard Critic, Nash REV. R. H. BOYD, D. D., LL. D. Organizer of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress, Secretary, Treasurer and Manager of the N ational Baptist Publishing Board. ville, Tenn. Each of these have contributed by their personalities to the strong organization that is now making itself felt throughout the United States. Prominent Sunday-School Workers Attending the Congress.

Special to the Globe. Shelbyville, Tenn., May 25.—The commencement season at the Turner College has been a blaze of glory and enthusiasm. It began on the 17th with an operetta, "Out in the Streets," running through the balance of the week with the Primary and Intermediate, and the Class Day exercises on Wednesday and Thursday nights, respectively, closing with a beautiful drama, "Dream of Fairyland," and the lovely spectacular drill, "The Silver Ster Drill" on Friday night. Many claimed that it was the most beautiful drill they had ever witnessed. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered Sunday at 2 o'clock in the college chapel by Rev. E. T. Waterford, of Waverly. The chapel was crowded to its utmost capacity and standing room was at a premium. The sermon was excellent and the music was superb. Rev. G. W. Hodge of Lewisburg, delivered a fine sermon at night to the students at the A. M. E. Church. The entire student body turned out en masse. It was a matter of general comment that the students presented a most beautiful appearance, the young men in their new suits, and especially the girls in their uniforms on white frocks, trimmed in blue with sailor waists. Quite a large number of visitors had arrived to witness these pre-commencement exercises, some of them from quite a distance. Among those deserving special mention are Miss Ruby Coleman, of Chicago; Miss Paladium Compton, of Nashville; Mrs. McKay, of Nashville, Mr. Robert Ferguson, of Chicago; Mrs. J. L. Scott, of Tullahoma; and Mrs. A. C. Boddie, of Tullahoma. The oratorical and elocutionary contest took place Monday night before an immense audience. The prize winners were Mr. Philip W. Jordan, of Puraski, and Miss Agnes P. Hampton, of Paris, Tenn. The prizes were gold medals, and were presented by President Jones. Many said that had the verdict been left to a popular vote it would at least have been equally divided between Mr. Robert G. Collier and Mr. Philip Jordan. Little Leon Saunders, of Nashville, held the audience with a spell in rendering "The Polish Boy." Every number was a gem and was well delivered. Tuesday night "My Lady Darrell" was produced at the City Opera House REV. HENRY ALLEN BOYD, Nashville, Tenn. REV. HENRY ALLEN BOYD, Nashville, Tenn.

Thursday morning was Commencement Day, an account of which will be reported next week. A large number of visitors from all over the state are present and at this writing are arriving daily. Among the most recent arrivals are Misses Inez E. Upshaw and Della Cleveland, of Pulaski; Miss Laura Jones and sister, Mrs. Sims, of Jersey City, N. J.; Miss Fannie Mai Perkins, of Nashville, and Miss Carrie Tyree, of Nashville. The campus is now deserted, and all the students have returned to the bosom of their homes.

CIRCULAR SETTING FORTH THE PLANS AND PURPOSES OF THE PROMOTERS ISSUED — SHOWS GREAT RESOURCES OF THE SOUTHERN STATES — TENNESSEE COMES IN FOR A LION'S SHARE—KNOXVILLE ALIVE ON THE SUBJECT. Special to the Globe. Knoxville, Tenn., May 24.—The Negroes of Tennessee and the South will play a conspicuous part in making the Appalachian Exposition a success. A strong committee has been appointed, headed by one of the leading men of East Tennessee, and already they are making themselves useful in the development of the enterprse. The Appalachian Exposition will be held for the advancement of the varied interests of the great Middle South, and consequently for the enrichment of the Nation. It is proposed: First: To stress the vital importance of conserving the forests and streams of the Appalachian region. Second: To exploit the resources and potentialities of this wonderful mountain empire. Third: To demonstrate the progress of the South in agriculture, mining, manufacturing and commercial pursuits. The key-note of the Appalachian Exposition, that which differentiates it from all other displays of this character, is its demonstrative nature. It proposes, from the use of actual object lessons, to show the importance of conserving the natural resources, and of developing them where now the force of exploitation has been but feebly exerted. It is to the interest of the South generally and to posterity, that the extensive forest resources and the water power originating in the Appalachians be forever guarded against depletion, and creating of sentiment to that end is one of the primary objects of the Exposition. The Appalachian Exposition covers in its scope eight of the most important Southern States, and its possibilities are unlimited. It will be one of the objects of this enterprise to demonstrate to the farmers, cotton planters, and to the world at large, the possibilities of making farming pay without dependence on a money crop, such as cotton and tobacco. With this end in view a great agricultural display building will be constructed which will hold exhibits from the mountain portions of the eight states included in the Southern Appalachian country. Persons not acquainted with the Blue Ridge and connecting ranges of mountains have little conception of the forage, food and fruit potentialities of this region. Buried gold, metaphorically speaking, lies waiting for the men earnest enough and energetic enough to dig it out. First among the assets of the Appalachian region are its timber stores. Hardwoods are present in abundance, as yet hardly touched by the timber man, offering immense financial returns under scientific and preservative forestation. The Appalachian Exposition is the one agency at work to remedy the evils that exist in the present methods of exploitation and development of timber resources, and to increase the returns from and insure the protection of the hardwood forests. The mining of coal is a present great, and a greater future industry of this section. That the movement for a great Appalachian Exposition was inaugurated at the most opportune time to become an agency for good to the whole people, is proven by the widespread interest in the question of the conservation of our natural resources and in the South as a new land of opportunity—a new field for human endeavor and national prosperity. 2 ENTERTAINED AT DINNER Mr. and Mrs. Foster Long entertained at dinner Sunday. The table was beautifully decorated with a large Battenburg center piece over pink and had for central ornament a low plaque of roses with a pyramid of pink roses heaped in the center. Those seated at the table besides the host and hostess were Prof. and Mrs. E. W. Benton, Rev. J. C. Fields, Miss Essie Jordan, Messrs Authur Brown, Thomas E. Work. A four-course menu was served.

According to information which reached here Tuesday from Richmond, Va., Walter G. Critchlow, former president of the International Labor Union, of which he was the founder and to which colored people chiefly belong, and who, about a year ago completed a term in the Ohio penitentiary, having been convicted on the charge of using the mails to promote a fraudulent scheme, has been denounced as a faker in that city. Colonel Joseph Button, of the Virginia Insurance Department, has set about to frustrate the efforts of Critchlow, who has been again inserting advertisements in certain Negro papers of the state asking for agents. Critchlow was stopped by the department last Winter after he had swindled many Negroes in several cities of Virginia, he said. The insurance commissioners of Ohio wrote the department in Virginia, denouncing Critchlow as a "bold fake." As a result of this communication, Colonel Button has made the statement that Critchlow is a UP AND DOWN THE RIVER.

He also warned agents to have nothing to do with Critchlow, and that they would thus stay out of the hands of the law. It will be recalled that Critchlow was apprehended about 18 months ago and convicted of using the mails fraudulently. He was sentenced by the late Judge Thompson, of the United States Court, at Cincinnati, after one of the severest arraignments that had ever been administered any one convicted in his court. During his incarceration Critchlow repudiated his wife, refusing to allow her to visit him, and after his release married his stenographer. He again resumed his former tactics, tendering quite an elaborate banquet to the members of the International Labor Union and other employees. Subsequently he left Dayton and nothing had been heard of him until his present escapade in Virginia—Dayton Journal, May 11, 1910. COLORED TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION The teachers of the public school corps of Nashville, Tenn., met in their regular normal meeting at Pearl High School building Tuesday afternoon, May 24. Quite a large number were present as this was the last meeting of the year. Dr. F. G. Smith presided. The regular normal work was suspended and the business of the Association taken up. The Student's Benefit Fund was finally settled, and it must be said to the credit of the teachers, that they have at last banded themselves together into an association which will be a benefit to the race. The first scholarship will be awarded at the June commencement to the graduate whose record has been the best for deportment and scholarship. INDIANAPOLIS DELEGATES HERE. Indianapolis delegates to the Sunday-School Congress, led by L. K. Warren and Rev. J. C. Patton, D. D., arrived in Nashville Monday night.

A marriage around which centered a deal of interest was that of Miss Bertha Polk to Mr. Edward Cartwright, which occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Haddox, 938 Gay street, in the presence of a host of friends. The house was appropriately decorated for the occasion and an ice-course was served. Many well-wishes for the future of the couple go with them on their matrimonial journey. DR. MASON'S DAUGHTER TO WED.

S. military service for thirty years, during which time he has seen service in Skaguay, Alaska, known as the "land of the midnight sun," and in the Philippine Islands, Honolulu and Japan. MISS HOWARD AT LAUREL. MISS A Nashville young lady in the person of Miss Maggie E. Howard, Ph. C., class of 1905, Meharry Medical College, has accepted the position of pharmacist at the Brown & Fisher Drug Company, of Laurel, Miss. Miss Howard has been at home for about three months, in fact, up to last week, having come here from Meridian, Miss., where she held a similar position with Sherrod's Drug Company. Miss Howard is regarded as one of the most competent pharmacists in the state of Mississippi, being one of the five licensed, registered Negro pharmacists. Only two of these are ladies. Miss Howard's friends will rejoice at the position as a promotion. AN ENDOWMENT BUREAU FOR ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY At the regular annual business meeting of the alumni association of Roger Williams University, May 17, 1910, an endowment bureau for the institution was organized. The purpose of this bureau is to prosecute plans by which the University may be endowed with at least $10,000. The following officers were elected: President, Dr. G. H. Bandy; Secretary, Dr. A. M. Townsend; Treasurer, Rev. E. M. Lawrence, and an Executive Committee composed of the above-named officers with Prof. E. W. Benton, Dr. G. W. Bugg, Prof. J. W. Johnson and Rev. William Haynes. This committee was empowered to carry out the idea. The plans have been formed and are already in operation. The public is solicited to assist in this worthy undertaking. Any information may be obtained by conferring with any of the above named committee. 2 PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. The past week was visiting week, and from the number of visitors who left their usual duties and paid us the compliment of a visit, we feel that the good people of Nashville realize the value of our school and what it is doing for real good and culture in our city. We also believe that these patrons who have been with us and examined our work, have a better understanding of our work and are more able to co-operate with us in whatever we may try to do in the future for the development of their children and the advancement of Pearl High. The Domestic Science Department, under the management of Miss E. B. Moore, was the most popular department. There the pupils were serving ices to their guests. Ice cream and assorted cakes were served the first days of the week, sherbet and fruit wafers the last days of the week. The Manual Training Department under Prof. H. L. Keith was also very favorably received. He had on exhibition several exquisite and original designs in wood-work. The following visitors registered during the past week in the Domestic Science Department: Drs. A. M. Townsend, Bugg, Jno. Bright, P. H '01; Mrs. Dunn, Mrs. Ryder, Mrs. J. L. Peaks, Decatur, Ala.; Mrs. C. C. Boger, Dr. F. G. Smith, Miss Viola L. Flagg, Mr. Geo. Washington, Mrs. Matterson, Mrs. Cornelia Blakemore, Mr. J. Webster, Mr. W. Christman, Mr. J. L. Leach, Mr. A.

We sorely miss her genial and sunshine presence and wish for her a speedy recovery. A CORRECTION. In the last issue of the Globe appeared the list of directors of the Y. M. C. A. in which was given the name of Mr. R. L. Mayfield. Please note that it is Mr. R. W. Wingfield instead. Mr. Wingfield is one of the true Christian workers of the association and the members feel highly complimented in having him on the board. Very respectfully, E. L. KINZER. Recording Sec'y. Y. M. C.

FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1910. EXCURSIONS AND PICNICS. As much as weather conditions may argue to the contrary Spring has about passed and we will soon be ushered into Summer, and simultaneously into the picnic season. Soon every public place will be strewn with hand bills and placards announcing steam boat and railroad excursions. The churches and Sundays schools will be taking the little people for outings in nature's bosom, and rightly so, for every child and every woman needs that gift that the country has in store for them, to invigorate and strengthen them, namely, fresh air. Men need it also, but they must take into consideration that women and children are dependent upon them for sustenance, and it is the husbandman's duty to look out for the home interest first of all things. The Saturday half-holiday during the Summer is becoming to be more generally adopted by business concerns, and it does seem that an afternoon in each week with the regular national holidays ought to afford ample opportunity for the men folks to take all the recreation that can be desired. There are some men who make it a business to work up excursions. They are after accumulating something for the cold and rainy days of winter, and it stands the man in hand who is working every day in the year to look out for himself also. As a people we are too given to the excursion idea. We cannot afford it. Competition in labor is very keen, and those men who work six days in the week will get the jobs. Preachers, teachers and leaders of lodges and societies would act wisely to advise against too many excursions. ANOTHER BREAK. The latest development in Tennessee politics is the rupture in the ranks of the Republican party. From present indications the row among the followers of the Sanders-Brownlow compact will equal, if not surpass, that of two years ago. Politics is a great game, and the skirmishes preparatory to all regular elections are fraught with many uncertainties. Even those highest in the councils of all parties often find themselves at sea as to what step to take to satisfy --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1910. the rank and file. No doubt the leaders thought that a deal to swap votes in the August and November elections would meet the hearty approval of all, if by so doing the Republicans could gain a "half loaf" in the government of the state, but to their utter surprise a howl has come up from every quarter. No "milk and cider" propositions will go with Tennessee white Republicans; they want the "whole hog or none." The federal office-holders under the present administration favor the deal as proposed by the White House conference, which is to be expected, as that is the only way they can legitimately take any part in politics; but there are so many more out of office to oppose the scheme, and who are doing so in unmistakable tones, the few supporters are completely snowed under. The one objectionable feature about this row is the attempt on the part of some to blame the Negro for it. But we suppose his back is sufficiently broad to bear it all. He is not complaining. Simply "sawing wood and saying nothing." The Negro has one privilege that no law enacted by man can rob him of, and that is he can think what he pleases. We therefore advise those men who have paid their poll taxes themselves, and those who intend to pay them before election time, to watch the trend of things and study out for themselves what is best to do. Without any instruments of sounding brass go to your friend and find out if he has paid his taxes, and if he has not urge him to do so. See that every voter registers and then advise him to think and to act for his best interests. All parties and factions of parties have practically closed the council doors in the Negro's face, but there is left to him that one great right to cast a vote for his choice in the final election, and it is up to him to guard that right. He has nothing whatever to do with the differences that exist in any party, and can therefore be absolutely independent to vote for whomsoever he decides is best fitted to govern. All candidates may be good men, but competency supercedes goodness in the administration of great commonwealths. The Negro delegates to the World's Sunday-School Convention are returning home vowing to say hard things about the local committee in Washington. Next week the delegates to the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress in Atlanta, Ga., will return home singing the praises of the local committee of that city. We are made to believe in the "own vine and fig tree' idea more and more every day. We are glad to be able to say that not a single line of advertisement of the International Labor Union swindling scheme has appeared in the Globe. We marked that gang from the outset, and only regret that we cannot report that the promoter of the thing is safely closeted in a cosy cell for keeps. We acknowledge an invitation to the sixth annual meeting of the Mississippi Negro Business League. The session will be held in Mound Bayou, a distinctly Negro town. We hope for this meeting great success, and for the citizens of Mound Bayou, new inspiration for having entertained it. The Horizon for May is on our desk, but the only luminary visible in its pages is the great "I am," W. E. Burghardt DuBois. Halley's comet dwindles into insignificance when the professor calls a meeting in New York to discuss southern conditions. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS The big Hamilton-Corliss engine which will propel the machinery of the Mound Bayou Oil Mill has been received at this station. So, another nail is driven into the coffin of the wiseacres who poured effusions of ice water on the proposition by predicting from the first that "No oil mill will be built at Mound Bayou."—The Demonstrator. Whenever the Negroes of any community allow a worthy enterprise to fall, they will soon find that they make a mistake that they have great cause to be sorry for. Our people should try to succeed in what ever undertaking at all hazard. Some of them are now beginning to see and express the mistake in allowing the different concerns that have been started in this town to go down, and the last one especially. That of the Fire Insurance Company. Some of them claim that they are now about experiencing the same disadvantages that they experienced before the fire insurance company was organized, that is, not able to get insurance. Well, every failure of business will tell in some respects. The only way to get accommodations to your own liking is to be able to accommodate yourself. When these different kinds of business are started it is charged up to the one who is at the head of it that it is some kind of a wild cat scheme to get rich quick; and therefore those who could give support to the concern is a substantial way usually gives it the cold shoulder, and the concern dies for the want of patronage from those who should give it—The Enterstate Reporter, Helena Ark. Freedman's Bank. The Committee on Banking and Currency has seen fit to make a favorable report on the Freedmen's Bank Bill. The Democratic members of the committee are opposed to the report, although the bulk of the money will be spent in Southern states. The bill should be passed and delegations should call upon these Democratic members with the idea in view of having the change their attitude or to be quiet in their antagonism to the measure. The bill should pass. We hope that the House of Representatives will see its way clear to send the measure to the United States Senate. It has passed that body before and it should get through there now.-Richmond Planet, Richmond, Va. Colored Physicians for Colored Schools. Now that the Norfolk School Board of Trustees has adopted the amendment to the by-lays proposed by Chairman Royster, providing for the employment of four physicians as medical examiners or pupils in the public schools, the Journal and Guide does not think it is out of place to ask that a colored physician be appointed as examiner for the colored schools. There is no objection to a white medical examiner for the colored pupils except that in Norfork there are about fifteen colored physicians either of whom is competent to perform the work. Besides the colored physician is in closer touch and deeper sympathy with the colored children, moving and practicing among them daily. We believe a colored examiner would get better results and would be more agreeable to the pupils and their parents. On the other hand, if they are forced to accept a white examiner, we believe he will be courteously received and that the children will submit respectfully to his tests. The appointment of a colored physician would be a recognition of their fraternity which has already been very much delayed. Colored citizens would feel keenly the appointment of a white examiner for the colored schools over the heads of the colored physicians of the city, in whom they have pride and confidence. We hope the School Board will consider the merits of the colored physician before naming a medical examiner for the colored schools.—The Journal and Guide, Norfolk, Va. LEWISBURG NOTES Mrs. Matilda Cook and little Miss Otie Mai Bishop, of Nashville, were the guests of Mrs. H. S. Davis on Verona avenue last Thursday and Friday. Prof. M. L. Jones is visiting friends in Nashville this week. Dr. L. E. Martin has moved his family here. Mr. S. G. Ewing, of Nashville, is visiting his sister, Mrs. Virgil Thurman. Mr. and Mrs. Grant McClain, of Lilliard Mills, made a flying trip here last Saturday. Rev. G. W. Hodge went to Shelbyville last Sunday evening. Mrs. L. E. Martin, who has been very ill, is reported some better at this writing. EXPERIENCED LAUNDRYMAN COMING. The People's Steam Laundry has secured the services of Mr. John T. Mayberry, who is now in Indianapolis, Ind., but will arrive in the city Monday, May the 39th, to take charge of the laundry June 1st. Mr. Mayberry is known to be among the best laundrymen in Nashville, and was for years proprietor of the East Nashville Laundry. COMMUNICATION "The jury, passing on the prisoner's life may in the sworn twelve have a thief or two guilter than him they try." Could we but lift the veil by which we are surrounded, what mysterious and hidden things would come to our view and, like Banqud's ghost, refuse to down. What a coming together of dry bones—not in Ezekiel's valley—nay, rather in the secret chamber of our own deceitful hearts. Wherein, if the truth were told, are we able to condemn our neighbors; upon what jury are we able to sit and not feel the gnawing of a guilty conscience reminding us of a spot more or less dark on the escutcheon of our own garment? Living, as we are in an age of imperfections, fault-finding, conniving and such like, who can boast the possession of a heart free from the talent of the age in which we live; who has escaped all of Paul's list of the "flesh?" Echo answers—"Who?" It is an easy matter to consign the moral leper to the scrap-pile of society, many there be, who are willing to assist in this labor of cleansing; is it not too true that in the crowd, frenzied with indignation, there may be those upon whose breast the Scarlet Letter" would be pleased if only Truth could speak and Reason be heard. We sneer at the drunkard as he staggers along or falls in his miserable attempt to escape to some hiding place, we draw our garments of pride about us as we pass by; how many in the band of sneerers are daily looking upon the wine in their homes or private clubs shielded by the screen of devotion or fraternal ties. Judged by the standard of right, which is the worse? Could the plumb-bob of heaven be applied to each life wherein would either be so erect that he could judge the other? Let us judge only in that upon which our judgment is not beclouded by personal guilt, remembering that, at all times, there is the possibility of the mote being in the way of a clear vision so necessary for pulling out the beam in our brother's eye. "A Vital Question." Dear Alumnus: The loyal graduates of Fisk University believe in the sincerity of the officers of the institution. They are optimistic and want to help. They mean to co-operate with the faculty in every possible way. They are interested in the welfare of the enthusiastic body of undergraduates. They believe that the high standards of honor, good conduct and scholarship which have always characterized Fisk should be kept constantly rising. They are upright, considerate, unselfish and ope nin their acts. They have the courage of their convictions and good sense with it. If you are a loyal Alumnus and have a sincere and unselfish interest in the welfare of your Alma Mater and its enthusiastic student body, you will go before the Faculty and seek an answer to the question you asked in the columns of this paper last week. If you are not satisfied then, it would seem sensible and proper to seek your satisfaction at the annual meeting of the Fisk Alumni, the first Monday in June. People whose motives are unquestionable never publish unsigned articles. Their sense of honor and fairness are too high for that. You should be open and fair in what you have to say or write, if you wish to have it respected. Otherwise, people of intelligence and character will not believe you. They will not listen. They cannot hear. Sincerely yours, H. L. KEITH. R. S. HARRIS. To the Editor of the Globe: We send you congratulations on the editorial in your last issue on the subject of "Hasty Forgiveness." We as women of the Negro race are proud of you and highly commend your words. We are more encouraged now that we know we have some men of our race who will aid and protect us in our struggle for moral supremacy. We have always loved the Globe and now we love it more than ever. Long live the Globe and in our meeting to-day we pray that heaven's choicest blessings may rest on each one connected with it. Yours in Christ, THE LADIES' CHRISTIAN AID ASSOCIATION. May 23, 1910. A meeting of the Board of Directors of the Tennessee Colored Fair Association is hereby called Tuesday evening, May 31, at 7:30 o'clock, Napier Court. J. C. NAPIER, President. S. P. HARRIS, Secretary. Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1. by a male quartette DR. HENRY 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 euphony, 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. This music is suitable for the parlor, the school, the church. SEND 25c. FOR SAMPLE COPY.

A picnic was held at Greenwood Park Saturday, May 21, 1910, by the Senior Normal Class of Fisk University. This class will be remembered for several reasons; it is the last normal class to graduate under the present five-year normal course before the teacher's college course goes into effect culminating in degree of bachelor of pedagogy; it is the largest normal class to graduate from this institution, and is the first normal class to graduate under the administration of President G. W. Gates The special car left Jubilee Hall promptly at 8:15 carrying the happy crowd to Greenwood. A most enjoyable day was spent in spite of a little shower or two, in strolling, playing various games, skating, in fact Rev. Taylor who is noted for his hospitality gave free access to all the amusements on the place. Lunch was served twice, at the dinner and supper hour. It consisted of ham and club-house sandwiches, olives, pickles, chicken salad, bananas, lemonade galore, fancy cakes and brick cream in a variety of flavors, all in abundance. Members of the faculty present were: Pres. G. W. Gates, Mrs. M. L. Crosthwaite, Miss B. B. Parmenter, Miss Flora Wright, Miss Bennett, Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Morrow, W. A. Giles and F. C. Wilson. Both the faculty and students present expressed themselves as having spent a most delightful day. Mrs. C. C. Cannon Hostess to the Hei Iatrope Circle. The Heliotrope Circle met with Mrs. C. C. Cannon, 631 Wood street, on Tuesday afternoon. Despite the inclemency of the weather a goodly number of the membership responded to the roll call. The members busied themselves in rose-making. After work was laid aside greetings from other clubs were received. Mrs. Lewis, President of the Fleur-de-Lis spoke on "The Need of the Beautiful in Our Lives," and suggested more interest in horticulture and floriculture about the home. Mrs. G. L. Jackson, President of the Phyllis Wheatley spoke on the "Culture of Small Garden Plots, their Beauty and Utility." Miss E. J. Pinkard, a member of the H. T. G. M., spoke on "Beauty in the School room" secured by box plants and vases of cut flowers, which any teacher can have with small pains. Misses Page and Childress brought greetings from Florida, relating many thrilling incidents from that Land of Flowers. Wednesday Evening Musicale. The Wednesday Evening Musical met with Mrs. H. A. Cameron, May 11, 1910. The regular lesson for this meeting was the first half of the May Etude which was planned to give each member an article for study and discussion. The able way in which these articles were reviewed showed that much time and preparation had THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1910. been given them. The guest at this meeting was Mrs. T. Clay Moore. The program follows: Piano—"To a Wild Rose," McDowell. Miss Caruthers. Vocal—"The Spring Has Come... Maude V. White Miss Wright. Piano (a) Tristresse D'Lame...

L. Moore, A. L. Pinkston, A. O. Kenney, W. A. Lewis, G. L. Jackson and Dr. H. D. Mitchell. The return of the president, Mrs. L. H. Lewis, after an absence of nine months was an added pleasure to the meeting. Mrs. Vassar's home was fittingly arranged for her guests. In the hall frappe was dispensed by Mrs. S. P. Harris, and in the dining-room, which was tastily decorated in ferns and iris (the club flower), a three course menu was served. *** A. B. S. Club. Mrs. Hattie Fleming and Miss Amanda Trotter, of 1601 Jefferson street, were hostess to the A. B. S. Club, on Wednesday evening, May 18. As the young men were to be present at this meeting, the young ladies assembled at 6:30 o'clock to transact all business. A very interesting meeting was held with Miss Mayberry presiding. The most important business discussed was the outing, but no definite plans were decided. At eight o'clock the young men began to arrive, at which time the business meeting was closed, the rest of the time being spent in a social way. Games and music were indulged in. At a late hour, a two-course menu was served. Messrs Ernest Alexander and Willie Bryant presided at the piano.

He preached from Prov. 18:24, "A man that hath friends must show himself friendly; and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." His subject was "Friendship." No stronger plea for friendship and union between mother and daughter, father and son, husband and wife, teacher and pupil could have been made. He easily sustained his reputation as a pulpit orator. Dr. Johnson left Tuesday for Nashville. A small sized panic was created in the church a few minutes before the close of the service. The home of Mr. Joe Walker, a few yards in the rear of the church, caught fire and was in a light blaze when discovered.

The session was largely attended and much interest was manifested. About twenty-eight teachers were in attendance. On Thursday of the institute a handsome umbrella with a sterling silver handle was presented County Superintendent W. F. Albright by the body of teachers. Rev. V. E. Shipp made the presentation speech with a few well chosen and fitting words as a token of the esteem in which they held Prof. Albright. Mr. Albright accepted the same most heartily and thanked the teachers for the way in which they remembered him. The public school closed here the 20th, with closing exercises at the Missionary Baptist Church. The exercises were excellent indeed. The teachers deserve much credit. Dr. J. A. McMillan, of Nashville, spoke at the M. E. Church Sunday at 11 o'clock on the subject of "Tuberculosis." The address was timely and well delivered. A large congregation greeted him. Several visitors were in the audience. Noticeable were Dr. W. S. Bailey, Mr. Jas. H. Evans, of Nashville, and Messrs. Alexander and Stockall, of Fisk University. Dr. Baily and Messrs.

Philadelphia, May 23.—Jim Johnson, the Tennessee heavy weight, defeated Morris Harris in the wind-up at the Willis Athletic Club to-night. The bout was a fast one for big men, and there was little let up in the work during the six rounds. Johnson used his boxing skill to good advantage. Johnson forced the fighting, and in the sixth had Harris holding and running away before the round was over. JOHNSON SAYS HE PLANS TO TAKE ON JEFFRIES AT THE LATTER'S OWN STYLE. "I can't see where Jeffries figures as a favorite," declared the conqueror of Burns, Kaufman and Ketchel, during the conversation on the pavilion steps, "although it only makes me feel that much more confident that my friends will get there. The trouble with the Western fight fan is that he permits his sentiment to overcome his better judgment, with the result that he has paid thousands of dollars into the sack of the man who figures. Twice the San Francisco bank roll went fleecy for Jim Corbett twice on local favorites against Ad Wolgast and several times for equally eneven contests. "Jeffries being a Californian, and an ex-champion, will naturally carry a big load of money, but it is going to be a vain effort on his part. I will surely beat him before the twenty-fifth round and may possibly turn the trick in five or six periods. "One thing is certain—I am prepared to play the same sort of a game as Jeffries does and the spectators at Emeryville will have a good opportunity to see whether or not I am game. All sorts of ridiculous charges have THE ROCK CITY ACADEMY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. The Rock City Academy Medicine and Surgery met in bi-monthly session Monday night.

"If Jeffries decides upon a rushing, thrashing campaign, he will find me prepared with the same stuff, whereas, if he decides to box with me, I will do likewise. In the latter case it may take me a trifle longer to wear him down than it would if he swapped punches, but the result will all be the same. I can't see where Jeffries has a look-in.
