Meharry Wins Thanksgiving Game 6 to 2.

IN HARD GAME
FISK GOES DOWN IN DEFEAT IN FIERGE STRUGGLE
Crosses Goal Three Times to be Brought Back.
PUBLIC BEWILDERED AT DECISION OF OFFICIALS—LARGEST CROWD IN HISTORY OF GAME OUT TO SEE CONTEST—ATHLETIC PARK A MASS OF GOLD AND BLUE AND BLACK AND CRIMSON—VISITORS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE STATE ATTEND THE GAME THE CURTAIN FALLS ON 1910 SEASON.
Before one of the largest crowds that ever witnessed a root ball game in Nashville, the teams of Meharry and Fisk battled out one of the hardest games in the history of the teams. Each team came upon the field feeling that they were meeting foremen worthy of the steele. Each team had its supporters, and with songs and yells they were cailing for their noble sons to merit on to victory. Each team fighting as though their very life depended upon the results, every man keyed up to the point and every nerve at the highest pitch. They were indeed fighting a great battle, a great run. Now and then a line plunge only added to the fierceness of the conflict. Meharry with her great line plays would now and then rip great holes in Fisk's line, only to be held when the critical moment came. Fisk on the other hand would start one of her sweeping end runs and behind splendid interference would gain many yards. They were indeed fighting a fierce battle.
Capt. Zuber and Capt. Upshaw could be heard calling to the men to get in, close up, fight hard, boys—hold their line! and the men always trying with every drop of blood in

their being to rally. The Walden and Mehary supporters are surging and calling for their team to come home boys, get in the game, break it up. And with a determination that only men can have on such occasions they fought like madmen. You could hear Zuber calling out, "Watch King, don't let him get away! Down him, boys, that's good; you know you can do it!" The grand stand is upon its feet, they are fighting in the shadow of the goal. You can hear nothing but the clatter of headgear and the comper with which a taile is made. Hold, boys, don't let him do it! Every eve is upon the men, he has kicked out of danger.
"Fisk play the game, just to save your name, boys:
You hold that line at any time, boys,

MEHARRY'S LINE UP.

We've got them guessing while we're pressing;
Don't feel discouraged; we're here to win.
Now, poor Meharry, ain't you ashame To come out here and try to win this game?
Now don't be grieving because we're beating;
You'll miss your little Brown, Brown, Brown skin babies after this game."
The Meharry band playing their favorite song and the girls giving the college yell only makes the South Nashville boys fight hard. The teams were indeed equally matched and every man played his part and fought hard to win. King played some of the greatest playing of his career. Kimble, Upshaw and Merchant also played a hard game, while for Meharry Zuber, Scott, West, Cannady put up the game of their lives. Bass at center played a star game and but for his splendid work many goals would have been made by Fisk. He was indeed a tower of strength to the team!
"Good evening, Miss Fisk, your team is on the burn this time.
Good evening, Miss Fisk well goe

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,

Good evening, Miss Fisk, your team

PEARL AND ST. LOUIS TIE.
St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 24.—In the presence of a crowd larger than has been seen at a high school foot ball game in this city, the Pearl High School team, of Nashville, Tenn., played the Sumner High School eleven to a stand still. It was a beautiful game, and each team is to be complimented for the orderly manner in which it was conducted.
Pearl High School beat St. Louis last year decisively in Nashville, but this year it was quite a different proposition. Sumner was working to erase least year's defeat, but the best they could to was to tie the game.
The game ended with the score 11 to 11. Pearl High had a large number of supporters, and they cheered the boys from Tennessee to the highest.

Special to the Globe.
Hortense, Tenn., Nov. 23.—Hortense, a wealthy Negro settlement in West Tennessee, is situated on the Clarksville Mineral branch of the Louisville and Nashville railroad in Dickson County about five miles from the town of Dickson. The population in the immediate vicinity is entirely colored, who own their farms. Tobacco culture is the chief industry. The thrifty husbandmen are making money and saving it to buy more land. They are proverbial for their honest business methods and sterling integrity. They have one church, pastored by Rev. H. Davie; a school taught by Mrs. Fannie Childress; a masonic hall is in course of erection. One general store owned by Mr. G. B. Suggs. Among the land owners of Hortense are E. W. Washington, 145 acres; Richard Long, 50 acres; J. H. Dickerson, 115 acres; Jas. Bartlett, 56 acres; G. B. Suggs, 53 acres; C. H. Jones and Bros. 201 acres; C. H. Gatewoods, 100 acres; Richard Williams, 50 acres; F. W. Washington, 225 acres; Silas Rhodolph, 69 acres; Geo. Walker, 118 acres; Will Mallory, 53 acres; Mrs. Sally Teasley, 59 acres; C. H. Dickerson, 70 acres; J. H. Rhudouph, 50 acres; Matthew Patton, 35 acres; C. H. Northington, 75 acres; R. Bartlett, 1 acre; Phill Bowen, 50 acres; Dudley Northington, 50 acres; R. Crotcher, 50 acres; Wm. Lankford, 75 acres; A. L. Polk. 120 acres; Henry Jones, 70 acres. The above farms are free of all debt and they are well kept. This speaks volumes in behalf of the Negro citizens of Dickson County. The people of Hortense generally are not natives of that county but immigrants from Montgomery County. Hearing that land could be bought at from $3 to $5 per acre they embraced the opportunity to get possession of it. They cleared it of the saleable timbers, such as crossties stave bolts and poplar and oak logs which they sold and shipped to Nashville and other lumber centers. By doing this they soon amassed enough money to put their holdings in first class shape for tobacco farms.
The Swedes and Germans of the North have done no more for the waste lands of the South than these colored men of Hortense who have virtuously made the sixth civil district of Dickson County bloom and blossom like a rose. Extensive farming is the rule and not the exception, believing as they do firmly in fertilizing they get all that can be gotten from the soil. Years ago this land was deemed worthless. It is a pleasure now to see commodious tobacco barns filled with the "weed" ready for market and fat squealing porkers roaming at will through the woodland, giving a visible promise of backbone, shareeib and sausage during the winter and red ham gravy in the summer. The Hortense people are progressive and add much to the material welfare of the county.
Mr. Richard Long has just completed a new building and also Mr. Richard Williams. The Hortense farmers are putting on a good lot of cord wood for the Dover Iron Company.

THE TUSKEGEE NEGRO CONFERENCE.
Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, November 19, 1910—The twentieth annual session of the Tuskegee Negro Conference will convene at Tuskegee Institute on Wednesday and Thursday, January 18th and 19th, 1911. On Wednesday the first day, the Tuskegee Negro Conference will be held. Among the topics to be discussed are: Making Farming Pay; Successful Truck Farming, Fruit Raising, Live Stock and Poultry-Raising, Cotton-Raising; How to Successfully manage a large Plantation; How to Make a Living on a Small Farm. A number of prominent white planters are expected to be present and the question of making tenant farming more profitable to the land-lord and to the tenant will be discussed somewhat at length.
On Thursday, the annual Workers' Conference will be held. On this occasion an unusually large number of persons directly engaged in Negro education from the schools of the South especially, or interested in the uplift of the Negro are expected to be present. Among the subjects that will be taken up at the Workers' Conference is the following: How can Ministers, Teachers and Business Men assist the Farmers to make Agriculture more Profitable? Particularly by assisting in teaching farmers more efficient methods of farming, and also to develop the business side of farming. The indications are that the coming annual Tuskegee Negro Conference will be the largest and most successful of all the Conferences held at Tuskegee Institute.
LOCATE THE NORMAL IN MIDDLE
TENNESSEE.
Requests are pouring into Nashville urging that the state officials, in their effort to serve the best interests of the masses of the Negroes, should locate the proposed Negro Agricultural, Mechanical and Normal College in Middle Tennessee. The towns that have been heard from and that are demanding the Nashville Globe to take up this contention for them are Murfreesboro, Hartsville, Gallatin, Clarksville, McMinnville, Tullahoma, Colum
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1910
bia, Jackson, Dixon, McKenzie, Memphis, Knoxville, Bristol, Morristown, Franklin, Lewisburg and others. It is said that Murfreesboro is demanding in no uncertain tone that the center of the state be declared the logical and proper location.
Some of the leading men in Memphis are preparing a request to be sent to the Chief Executive and Board of Education through the State Superintendent, that the school be located where the masses of the Negroes, for whom it is t) be established, can reach it, and where it will be properly looked after by the state officials from time to time.
It seems to be a foregone conclusion that the Nashville citizens, irrespective of class or denomination, are unite on the school. The Baptist Minister's Conference, representing forty odd Baptist churches with congregations numbering all the way from 200 to 1,700 in membership in each church has passed resolutions placing themselves on record as favoring the location of the school in this county. It is also said that the Methodist ministers who meet next week will take up and pass like resolutions. Nearly every city teacher favors, the locating of the school in this county for various reasons and for purposes that will no doubt redound to the success of the school in future.
CHURCH DIRECTORY FOR 1911.
The Nashville Globe wishes to announce to all the churches of every denomination that they are now compiling the church directory for 1911, which will be carried in the Globe from week to week as a guide for those who desire to visit the several churches. In this directory we propose to have the name of the church, its exact location, giving street and number if possible and the name of the Sunday-school superintendent. This information will be set up in clear type to remain throughout the year 1911. Every pastor or church clerk is earnestly requested to hand in a slip with the correct information to the Globe office not later than December 13, so it will appear in the issue of the Globe of December 23d. Full partic
ulars as to mode of running the directory will be explained at the Globe office or over the telephone. Call Main 1989.
REV. J. H. LAWSON DEAD.
Marlin, Tex., Nov. 18th. Early this morning Rev. J. R. Lawson, D., D., of New Orleans, La., died in this city where he had come for treatment and recreation. Rev. Lawson was the pastor of the Austerlitz Baptist Church at New Orleans, and was one of the leading Baptist preachers in his connection. He was a man of some size physically, weighing nearly 300 pounds. His reputation was gained here in his former state a number of years ago as the leading evangelist in the Lone Star State, having held scores of successful revivals throughout the state. His remains will leave to-night for New Orleans where interment will take place. It is expected that Rev. Ira M. Hendon and possibly several others will accompany the body to the Crescent City.
The Nashville people remember the Rev. Dr. Lawson as he was in this city about three years ago on a visit to the National Baptist Publishing Board. It was at his church that the Woman's Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention held their last annual session during the sitting of the Baptist Convention in that city. It was stated then that Dr. Lawson was in poor health and had been suffering some few months.
THE GEORGE W. HUBBARD HOSPITAL CLUB.
The George W. Hubbard Hospital Club held their regular meeting at Mehairy Auditorium, Tuesday, November 22, 1910. Many interesting reports of work done by individual members were reported. Mrs. Felix Southall, of Franklin, Tenn., gave a linen shower at her home for the benefit of the hospital which proved a great success and served to show that the interest in this work is spreading to the neighboring towns and cities. The club was presented with a check for $50 by Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, which was greatly appreciated by the club. Mr.s. Boyd was appointed a member of the Executive Board at the last meeting of the club. A
check for $30.00 was presented the club by Mrs. Going which was a donation from her church.
A few weeks ago Mrs. W. A. Reed gave a linen shower at her home and received a large donation of hospital linen. Miss Emma Youngblood sent in a donation of $11.40 which she solicited for the club during the summer.
The amounts of each night of the autumn festival were as follows: Mrs. J. H. Hale, $68.50; Mrs. G. H. Bandy, $53.05; Mrs. Preston Taylor, $55.90; making a total of $177.45, net; for which the club wishes to express its greatest and most sincere thanks.
thanks.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
The club met at the home of Mr. J. L. Leach, and there entertained a good meeting upon the second reading of a fixed constitution of the club, the same being adopted to go in effect January 1, 1911. Immediately after the previous discussion the program opened with a song "America," followed by other numbers: Chapter IV "Life of Jas. A. Garfield" by Jordan Stockard. Chapter V "Life of Jas. A. Garfield," J. L. Leach. "The Approaching Crisis of Fuel," E. D. Winston. Remarks. All participants proved to be very illustrative. Drs. Thurman, Riley and Maxwell, visiting this meeting, offered some very interesting remarks. A very unique menu was served by the hostess, Mrs. Malone. Meeting adjourned to meet with H. Jordan Stockard, 1616 State street.

GIGANTIC NEWSPAPER MERGER.
A CONSOLIDATION OF RELIGIOUS JOURNALS AMONG THE BAPTISTS OF THE UNITED STATES.
Since October 15th there has been issued from the Baptist Publishing House of this city a periodical with new heads proclaiming the unanimity of purpose, action and thought of the convention of religious workers which it represents. This journal is known as the NATIONAL BAPSTIST UNION-REVIEW. The name is particularly significant and shows that two religious journals, namely: The National Union, which for the past ten years was published in this city and gained the distinction of being a high class periodical, and the National Baptist Review, the greatest of all journals that has ever been launched, considering its rapid growth, splendid makeup, the enormous circulation and the culture of the editorials that appeared, all within the space of less than a year, form the greatest religious paper ever launched.
It is stated by the Baptist people that the failure of the Union Publishing Committee to keep alive the official organ, as well as their inability as acknowledged by the editor, to keep the subscriptions and circulations up to the standard, is responsible for this merger. However, this argument is only made within their denominational rank. It appears to the people of Nashville that it was a splendid move on the part of the religious folks to continue to hold the centre of the stage in making a showing for greatness of publications.
The National Baptist Convention, through the meeting of its boards agreed to select between the two editors who were serving their respective papers, and unanimously chose Prof. J. D. Crenshaw of this city, to pilot the new publication and Rev. Dr. R. H. Boyd, the Secretary of the Publishing Board, to manage and financeer the venture. It started off, says the manager, with a larger circulation than was anticipated.
Judging from the past issues and the array of letters from the readers which appear in it, there seems to be a union of thought and a general favorable comment upon the entire action of the boards of these Baptist folks, who manipulated and made possible such a journal. Yet it is rumored to be having its share of breakers, and unless carefully piloted by skillful management it may encounter the storm of the Second-Class Postage Frank.
It seems that the management of the Union Publishing Committee lost its permit because of irregularity in mailing the paper during the summer and on account of an insufficient number of bona fide subscribers being upon its subscription books. It is also said that the tacking of the dead Union to the flourishing Review has not met with the general approval of the post-office officials, so the manager has been compelled to put up one cent per copy, aggregating from $80.00 to $100.00 per week, since October 15, and even now no permit has as yet been received. Just what steps would be taken could not be learned. It is stated, however, that if a permit is not granted a financial loss of several thousand dollars will be the first expense of the new religious publication that promises to be such a factor in Negro religious journalism.
A continuance of the publication is said to be assured from the fact that the National Baptist Review, which of itself is supposed to be a Sunday School Departmental paper, will be able to carry out the obligations of subscribers and advertisers. This is handed out as definite by the business manager and is sanctioned by the editor of the combined publications.
WHO WILL GET THE CONGRESS?
Cities scattered throughout the United States are bidding earnestly for the 1911 session of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress. Nearly every week for the past two months some important conventional city has sent in a request, application, or inducement to the Congress officials to consider their respective city as the proper place for holding this meeting. The decision as to when and where the Sunday-School Congress is to be held rests with the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, under the chairmanship of Rev. J. P. Robinson, D. D., of Little Rock, Ark., and the Publishing Board, under the chairmanship of Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., of this city, with Rev. R. H. Boyd, as the secretary of both boards. It is learned that they are carefully considering each invitation and that no decision will be reached until the board meeting in January, at which time it will be known positively where the Sunday-School Congress for 1911 is to be held.
Y. W. C. A. CONFERENCE CLOSE
AT MEHARRY AUDITORIUM.
At 7:30 p. m. the meeting marking the close of the Y. W. C. A. conference was held in the Auditorium. The address of the occasion being delivered by Dr. M. C. B. Mason, of Cincinnati, O., senior secretary of the Freedman's Aid Society. Speaking on the essential needs of the Negro. Dr. Mason said: "The one thing that the race needs for its permanent development is ethical and moral training. I do not," he continued, "dispare the word of industrial education, nor the work of these institutions for higher education, but the most important need of the hour is ethical and moral training, for behind the trained hand and the trained mind there must be above all else a man and a woman of character and downright practical honesty."
Mrs J. C. Napier, prominent in social work, presided at the afternoon session. The opening exercises were conducted by Miss E. A. Ross, National Secretary of N. Y., who directed the conference assisted by Miss Cecelia Holloway, also of N. Y., during its three days' session. At this session an encouraging report was read by Mrs. G. L Jackson, president of the Nashville Federation of Clubs. The principal address of this session was delivered by Mrs. W. A. Hunt, of N. Y., which was one of the most able ones made during the conference. She emphasized particularly the formation of character of the young Negro women. A special feature of the afternoon session was a solo by Miss Gertrude Lewis, and at evening that of Miss Maude Roberts, of Walden University. The choruses by Fisk and Walden Universities added much to the occasion.
Rev. Dr. Shoemaker will deliver an address to the Y. M. C. A. at 3:30 p. m., Sunday next.
A part of the surgical outfit for the new hospital has been received.
We were blessed with the presence of Dr. Honesty, of Washington, Pa., during the early part of the week.
Dr. J. T. Wilson, who with one of the nurses of his infirmary were absent from the city for over a week performing operations in Louisiana, Memphis and Somerville, Tenn., has returned to the city. Dr. Wilson reports favorably the progress of our graduates in those sections.

BAPTISTS OF NASHVILLE AND DAVIDSON COUNTY TO HOLD A SUNDAY-SCHOOL INSTITUTE.
Extensive plans are being made for a grand Sunday-school Institute, under the auspices of the National Baptist Publishing Board and the Baptist Sunday-school Union of Nashville and vicinity. The institute will be held at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, December 13-18 and will be conducted by Dr. N. H. Pius, National Superintendent of Teacher-Training, who will be assisted by Drs. C. H. Clark, R. H. Body, Wm. Haynes, T. J. Townsend, W. S. Ellington, A. O. Kenney, Revs. G. B. Taylor, J. C. Fields, H. A. Boyd and Prof. J. D. Crenshaw. The superintendents of the various Baptist Sunday-schools have entered into this institution and are working zealously with the committee of management.
Sessions will be held each afternoon from 2 to 5 o'clock and each night at 8 o'clock. The afternoons will be given to lectures and blackboard instruction, and the features of the night sessions will be a song service, conducted by Dr. Pius, a paper on some phase of the Sunday-school problem, and a sermon. The meeting promises to be one of the most interesting and profitable meetings ever held in the city. Every Baptist Sunday-school in the county is expected to have its teachers, officers and advanced students attend both the afternoon and night sessions. The institute will close with a great Union mass-meeting Sunday afternoon, December 18th, at 3 o'clock, when all the schools will join in the great Sunday-school rally.
The citizens generally are cordially invited to these meetings.

ORDER YOUR COMMENTRAY NOW.
The National Baptist Sunday-School Commentary For 1911 is Now Ready.
Oredrs are being solicited, so that every Sunday-school superintendent, scholar, teacher and pastor might send in their order, so that it may be filled. This Commentary is the most complete teacher and superintendent's guide now in use for the study of the Sunday-school lessons. The expositions, comments and the systematic way in which the lessons are outlined make it a much sought compendium for Sunday-school workers. There are many advantages to be gained by using our Commentary, which place it at the head of the list. First, it is the only distinctive Baptist Commentary on the market; Second, it was the first ever written, arranged and published excusively by Negroes; Third, it meets more demands in the Sunday-school room than have ever been attempted by any denominational publication and it was larger last year than ever.
This book contains both the revised and authorized versions of the Scriptures and has decided advantages over other books in that it contains the Motto Texts and subjects for all teh Sunday-school lessons to be studied in 1912, virtually giving two years lessons in one. More than ten thousand copies of this book were printed last year.
This Commentary also has a Bible dictionary for each quarter and maps of the Holy Land; in fact, you can not afford to get along without this book.
Special inducements will be given superintendents of Sunday-schools, who will send orders for five or more copies to be shipped by express to one address.
The price by mail, single copy, cloth binding is 75 cents, half morocco binding, by mail, $1.00.

Cost of $1,000. Money for the first payment has been raised, $250, balance one, two, and three years. They will now proceed to erect a school building. The colored Educational Board, of Smithfield and vicinity, is awake and hard at work. Journal and Guide.

Now that the smoke of the battle has cleared away, let us as a race of people, forget and get rid of any friction caused by the election; get together and pull together for the future advancement of the people. East St. Louis Eagle.
The 16th, 17th and 18th of this month is "Clean-up Day" in Knoxville. All the ladies interested in the City Beautiful idea will bestir the owners of premises, also the occupants, to clean up both the front and back yards, remove all rubbish and unsanitary conditions, as far as possible; all of which is to be done for the betterment of the city's health and general good appearance. We urge all colored people to aid in this movement by a general cleaning up and placing their premises in good sanitary condition; by doing so they not only improve their own premises and vicinity, but will show the officials that we have city pride, as much as any race. The chairman of the Board of Public Works and the Chief of Police are interested, and we should not allow ourselves to be forced to clean up, but upon the above date have our premises cleaned up so no notices will be served among our people.—East Tennessee News.

If education teaches anything it certainly should teach the dignity of labor. While by the sweat of the brow man shall eat bread, it should teach the individual to aspire to a higher and nobler life; to rise above low and debasing habits, to a plane of influence. That, education which kindles no aspiration to reach up beyond the state of mere serfdom is sadly neglected in its fundamental princi-
The Greatest Theatrical Treat of Season "The Iron Master"
A most tragic drama portraying love, romance and its seguelae will be staged at the

The play is one so intensely interesting, entertaining as well as instructive as to have commanded several weeks of continuos engagements in many of the larger eastern play-houses before appreciative audiences. The cast of characters is as follows:

ples and is a misnomer.—The Negro Fortune Teller.
The opposition to W. A. J. Morgan as Grand Master of Mississippi Masons may be regarded as a negligible quantity. A prerequisite equipment for the occupancy of this exalted station consists in the ability to measure men. In the selection of Chas. Banks to fill the important station made vacant by the death of the lamented Ellis E. Perkins, Mr. Morgan effectually removes every vestige of doubt as to his endowment in this particular. With all the other necessary qualifications he is abundantly supplied as the Masonic brotherhood of Mississippi will attest.—The Demonstrator.
Rt. Rev. Evans Tyree is the pioneer in his church in raising large amounts of money for Christian education. No bishop nor district ever attempted to raise $10,000 in an educational rally until Bishop Evans Tyree led the way and set the example, making it possible now to raise more than $30,000.—The Texas Recorder.
The only way to build a town is to spend your money in the town in which you live. We have lots of people who even live in Boley and seem to take great pleasure in going to some other towns near by, doing their trading, even business men. Some of them pay their railroad fare and the freight on what they buy trying to save 25 cents on one article.—Boley Progress.
NOT TALKING SEMINARY.
From what can be learned around town it seems that the Baptists of Tennessee, especially those connected with the national work of their organization, have about ceased to talk Theological Seminary. Just what has brought about this calmness on their part is what seems to be puzzling many citizens of Nashville who had hoped that another big educational institu-

tion would be added to the list, further clinching Nashville's position as an educational centre. Why the sudden change from Nashville to some other point is also being discussed, not only by the Baptists but by the people in general. It has been impossible to get in touch with the new educational secretary or with the chairman of the Baptist Educational Board of their National Convention; hence it is not learned whether the Theological Seminary plans have been permanently abandoned in so far as relate to Nashville, but it is said upon good authority that the school is not to be located near Roger Williams University should it come to Nashville, as the property which was at one time thought desirable and cheap has been considerably advanced in price, that is, the people who own it, thinking it would be desirable school property ran the price up from normal to such a figure that no organization nor individual would dream of paying the price for it. Instead of being about the price of adjoining property, it is rated at four times as much. There seems to be no market nor purchaser, but this is not the cause said to be responsible for the changed plans relative to the Seminary; just what will be done no one seems to know.

BANK WILL NEED CASHIER.
Who will succeed the Hon, J. ©.
Napier as cashier of the One Cent
Savings Bank when he leaves Nash-
ville to take charge as the Resister
of the United States ‘Treasury, a posi-
tion to which he has just been named
by President Taft is a questicn that'ls
being asked by many citizens of Nash-
ville, The probabilities are that Mr
Napier, the present cashier, who has
held the position since the organiza-
tion of the bank, nearly eight years
ago. will be compelled to offer his
resignation, as he will practically
move his residence from Nashville,
While he will remain a citizen of
‘Tennessee and Nashville proper, he
will not be here personally to guide the
iretitution as has been his habit for
the past years, *
It is understood, however, that the
position of cashier of this, one of the
best known financial concerns in the
South, is honorary, pure and simple,
while the responsibility attached
thereto is a great one, as the Clear-
ance of the bank last year was nearly
a million dollars and whoever is elect-
ed to the. position will. be custodian
of this enormous amount of cash. {t
is said that the position as cashier
of a bank entails quite a responsibili-
ty, in that the cashier with ;the Fin-
ance Committee must pass on ali
notes, loans, and financial transac-
tions, which often involve thousands
of dollars, f .
There seems to be no candidate for
the position, yet among the present
are William Beckham, J. P. Crawford,
Geo, W. McKissack. There is a va-
cancy in the Board of Directors causeq

WANTS SCHOOL IN MIDDLE TEN-
NESSEE. >
| Murfreesboro, Tenn., Nov. 19, 1910.
To Whom it May Interest:
In regards to the location of the
Colored Normal School with the con-
sideration of some of Rutherford Coun-
ty’s most prominent colored citizens
I think many advantages’ would be
derived by the colored citizens of the
state if the school be located in the
center of the state, especially near
the capital. It being a state institu-
tion, a central location would doubt=
lessly facilitate its support and in-
deed be convenient for its patrons on
all sides, thus giving all patrons a
fair and equal chance to the school.
it would have the oversight of the
state officials 365 days in the year,
and obtain extra appropriations from
year to year, would not be as great a
task as it would be if the school were
located at some extreme end of the
state, away from the capital,
Why did Murfreesboro get the white
Normal? Because of the great advan-
tages of a state Normal being cen-
tered in the state together with a few
minor and supporting influences,
The colored citizens of Murfrees-
bors and Rutherford County earnestly
hope the state officials are viewing the
inatter in the same light and as a re-:
sult of their view upon the soil of
Middle Tennessee, will be planted
his Negro State Normal,

The Negro Normal School in Tennessee.
Editor of the Nashville Globe:
Where should the Normal School for Negroes in Tennessee be located? Peculiarly enough, some have seemed to feel that a few dollars contributed by some community should determine the answer. If a stalk of corn is to grow, it must not be laid down upon a rock as a soil. It must be placed in good, real soil and proper surroundings. The better the surroundings and soil. The greater the yield. If a Negro Normal School is to grow and to amount to anything in Tennessee, it must not be located on dollars alone; its location must be decided upon in accordance with educational atmosphere and convenience to the masses which it is expected to reach and benefit. The choice for location seems to lie between Nashville and Chattanooga.
Chattanooga is a splendid little city, but it has almost nothing in the way of educational atmosphere as compared with Nashville with its dozen or more colleges and universities.
If the Negro Normal were located in Nashville, the very fact that it would have to compete for standing with such Negro schools as Fisk, Walden and Roger Williams Universities would force its faculty and student body to maintain the highest standards of excellence along all lines. There would be no such stimulus in Chattanooga.
It is to be hoped, among other things, that the said Normal will do much along agricultural lines for the Negroes of the state. If so, it will need to specialize on crops peculiar to Tennessee. This will call for experimentaitno at the school. The very geographical position of Chattanooga makes the soil and surroundings adapted to getting facts concerning the average kinds of crops of Georgia and Alabama rather than those of Tennessee, while Davidson County surroundings and soils are such as to make a good experimental location for ordinary Tennessee crops.
With the completion of the Tennessee Central Railroad, Nashville, besides being centrally located, becomes connected by direct line with all parts of the state. Chattanooga is off in a corner. Nashville is more centrally located, and thus the better place for the school.
Chattanooga is convenient to reach from East Tennessee but is very inconvenient to reach from West and Middle Tennessee. The number of Negroes in East Tennessee, as compared with those in Middle and West Tennessee, are almost nothing; which means that for convenience to the greatest number of Negroes of the state, Nashville is the place for location. Again, it is a good thing for state institution to be where it can be constantly under the observance of the state officials, so that its needs, etc., can be intelligently presented by these officials to the Legislature from time to time. Nashville is the only location in Tennessee that meets *fills* requirement.
Finally, the white citizens of Davidson County are kindly disposed to Negro schools of higher learning, after an experience of having such schools in their community extending

Captain Upshaw Of Fisk U
Mr. Upshaw, captain of the Fisk team, had the following to say about his team:
"The boys are going in to win. We have had a hard start at the early season and things did not look so well for us. But the boys came around all right in the A. B. C. game and we feel that we have a lookin to-day with an equal break in the luck. I think my boys should bring home the bacon. But we are all in good condition and I have nothing more to say but that we are going to play foot ball and play hard and clean."

Dr. Chas. Henry Phillips, of St. Louis, Mo., is in. Among the old Meharry men back in the city to see the game is one of the boys we all love and admire; he is a jolly, good fellow. A hale man well met, Dr. Chas. Henry Phillips, Jr., and Mrs. Chas. Henry Phillips are in the city from St. Louis, Mo. They are the guests of Bishop and Mrs. Chas. Henry Phillips, Sr. The doctor did not say how long he would be in the city. Mr. Hurt, of the Pearl Tigh School team, is making a record as a half back and will some day take his place among the best the game can produce.

S. S. RANSOM.
Mr. S. S. Ransom, coach of the Meharry foot ball team for the past two seasons, is a man of great foot ball knowledge and knows every angle of the game, having played on the great Minnesota team when that team was champion of the western conference. He has been a hard worker and is the greatest exponent of a clean game. Mr. Ransom leaves his business each fall to come to Meharry to coach the team. We are hooping for him much success wherever he goes. Since his coming South he has worked wonders in developing the new game. May he live long and prosper.

Not since the game of foot ball made its advent into the Negro colleges of the south has there been evinced such a great amount of interest and enthusiasm for the sport as was witnessed at the game played between Fisk and Meharry at Athletic Park Thursday afternoon. Fully 6,000 were present, and the game, one of the best ever played in Nashville, resulted in a score of 6 to 2 in favor of Meharry. Brown, left guard of Meharry, slipped through an unguarded spot when within 20 yards of Fisk's goal in the third period and scored a touchdown after when Zuber kicked goal. This was the end of Meharry's scoring. Two close decisions against Fisk proved very costly to the latter. Both times a Fisk player had reached the coveted spot, but was called back on a foul.

Captain Zuber Of Meharry
Captain Zuber, when seen by the Globe man just before the game, gave out the following interview:
"The boys are all in fine shape. We have been working hard and we are going to win, if we lose we will have no excuse to offer. Our team will fight to the last ditch and while we are expecting to win, we do not underestimate our opponents.
"We are going to play a hard, clean game, but we are going in to win and that is all there is to it. I know that all the boys feel just as I do about the matter, and we are going to start from the first whistle to win and win we must.

Saturday, November 19, at 3 p. m., on Roger Williams campus, the Walden foot ball team conquered the Roger boys in a scientific game. In the first and second quarters Walden goal was never in danger. The playing completing in Roger's territory. The Walden team in the second quarter advanced the ball from the center of the field to Roger's ten yard line, and on a fumble by the left half of Walden, and the ball recovered by the right half Alexander, who carried the ball across the goal for a touch down. The referee declared the ball dead, on some point, not satisfactory to the Walden team.
The ball put back in place on the ten yard line, and Walden made another attempt for a touch down and carried the ball in one foot of the goal; which ended the second quarter.
Third quarter ball kicked to Roger Williams, they buck the Walden line for no gain; then tried the ends and lost the ball on downs. Walden with quickness and a thorough knowledge of her plays advanced the ball to Roger's twenty yard line, and tried kick and failed. End third quarter.

Thy loyal children make their way
To execute their fine behest,
"Go turn the darkness into day."
To heaven, to country, and to thee,
Our hearts shall first and last be
true.
We e'en shall die with loyalty
To heaven, to country, GOLD and
BLUE.
