NASHVILLE GLOBE. G. W. HUBBARD NAME OF NEW HOSPITAL AT MEHARRY First Wing of Building Dedicated Thursday. EVERY DETAIL CARRIED OUT AS ARRANGED—HEAD NURSE ON THE GROUND WITH CORPS OF HELPERS — CONVENIENCES OF INSTITUTION UNSURPASSED—EACH FLOOR A PALACE IN ITSELF—OPERATING ROOM WILL ACCOMMODATE OVER HUNDRED STUDENTS. The George W. Hubbard Hospital which was nothing more than a mere proposition a little less than eight months ago has become a grand reality, and Thursday saw the formal opening of what is destined to be a magnificent institution. This hospital is an addition to the famous and well known Meharry Medical College, of Walden University, and is located on Second avenue, South, near Chestnut street. For some time before the exercises people gathered in the auditorium and thronged about the street viewing the building which stands high above the street. The Meharry Band was in evidence and dispensed several fine selections. The people moved into the auditorium and were seated. It was only a few minutes after 1:30 p. m. before every seat in the building was taken and portable chairs were pressed into service. This however did not suffice, and standing room was soon at a premium. The University Orchestra, under the direction of Miss M. E. Braden, began a processional march, and the hospital nurse class, which was in uniform, entered and marched to the front of the center aisle, followed by the internes, who were also in uniform. Behind the internes came the senior medical class of '11. The choir opened the exercises by singing, "All hail the power of Jesus' name," and Rev. T. W. Johnson, formerly pastor of Clarke Chapel M. E. Church, invoked divine blessings. The choir then favored the audience with a Jubilee selection, "Good News," led by Miss Maude Roberts, which received a hearty applause. Dean Hubbard announced the purpose of the meeting and gave a bit of history of the movement which had resulted in the erection of the building now about to be dedicated. He made mention of several persons, clubs and other organizations that had labored faithfully and effectively in securing and providing means to meet the expense of erection and furnishing. At the close of his remarks he introduced Bishop Walden, President of the Board of Trustees of the University. Bishop Walden spoke at length and told of the time when he attended a medical college in Cincinnati. He said the advantages offered by colleges in those days was far inferior to what the student begins with to-day. The Bishop urged the students to maintain the dignity of the profession. "I have been thinking," he said, "of the relation of the medical profession to the problem of the Negro race." "The graduates are themselves an object lesson of what it is possible to accomplish." The greatest benefit, he urged, is the improved sanitary condition the Negro doctor is able to bring about and that is so much needed. Governor Patterson who had been invited to attend was detained at his office and sent greetings. He regretted his inability to be present. Dr. R. F. Boyd was asked to introduce the Mayor of Nashville, the Hon. Hillary Howse. Dr. Boyd was in a speaking mood and entertained the audience in a prolonged introduction in which he told an amusing incident of himself when a candidate for mayor of Nashville. He emphasized how the Negro people of this city love and respect Mayor Howse for being so broad. In short, he said, "He is the Mayor of all the people, white and black." Mayor Howse eulogized Dean Hubbard on the great amount of uplifting work he had done since he had known him which was 24 years or more. A glowing tribute was paid the Negro citizens of Nashville by Mayor Howse who declared that no city of its size could boast of as large a population of energetic, moral and refined citizens as is found here. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1919. Dr. Kumler, President of Walden University, spoke next in an entertaining manner. He presented Dr. M. C. B. Mason and called him the "prince of orators," his "brother in black." Dr. Mason, elegant and brilliant, always possessing a word of wisdom, spoke pleasingly for several minutes. He saw great possibilities in the future. He made a plea for Africa which stands in need of all civilization can give her. He appreciated the growing feeling of brotherly love and mutual helpfulness between the races. Fisk University had several representatives present. A communication was read from Dean Wright. Dr. Morgan, Dean of the Dental Department of Vanderbilt University, was introduced and "spoke entertainingly. He revered the name of the sainted Dr. Braden. Dr. Hubbard styled Dr. Morgan as a friend who had stood by him. Dr. Morgan said he was the son of an ex-slave holder and stood as a link between the old and the new; that in anti-bellum days he had much association with the Negro people and they had never taught him one unprincipled act. The last speaker to appear was the Hon. J. O. Napier, who has recently been appointed Register of the Treasury of the United States. Hon. Mr. Napier has just returned from Washington where he attended a meeting of the trustees of the Jeanes' Fund. He said he was delighted at the occasion of the evening and was glad of an opportunity to express his sympathy with the movement. Mr. Napier is a member of the faculty of Meharry, holding the position of Professor of Medical Jurisprudence. After the exercises in the auditorium the audience assembled before the hospital where the dedicatory exercises were conducted on the steps of the building by Bishop Walden. At the completion of the dedicatory exercises the hospital was thrown open and several hundred visitors took advantage of the opportunity to inspect the building. Only One Wing. The present structure represents only one wing of the contemplated building and is a three story brick including the basement, which is itself a ground floor by reason of the physical condition of the location. It occupies a space 44 x 64 feet, and contains twenty-two rooms, some of which are large enough to seat a hundred or more students. Construction of Building. The workmanship on the building is in every way first-class and is of a type that makes it equal to modern institutions of its kind. The utmost considerations have been observed to make it convenient and hygienic, having an abundance of light and air. A modern steam heating plant has been installed and is in operation, enabling the operators to obtain and maintain any temperature desired. Throughout the building is well appointed and is provided with the most up-to-date sanitary plumbing. The cost of this wing is fifteen thousand dollars, six of which was secured from a fund which has been accumulating for several years. Nearly five thousand dollars was raised by the Hospital Club, most of which was contributed by the alumni and present student body. It is said the Freedman's Aid Society has agreed to give two thousand dollars toward the building. In addition to the subscriptions already received about one thousand dollars is needed. Several well-known firms of this city were awarded contracts for various portions of the work. The stone work was done by Ward & Blair; Norman & Rhodes Co. did the brick construction; the plastering was done by Robert Page; the steam heating outfit is from the American Radiator Co.; Robert Sharp is responsible for the architecture, while John H. Adams did the carpentry work. Will Serve the Public. In addition to serving the public an large the Hubbard Hospital will meet all the requirements made by the American Medical Association, of which Meharry Medical College is a member, in providing practical clinical work, also in the training of nurses. Everything necessary for the initial opening has been secured and though the institution is in a position to receive many necessities in the form of linen, etc., enough has been secured to warrant the opening and maintain the hospital in running order. From time to time as donations are received the facilities will be enlarged. Some Generous Donors. The Ladies' Hospital Club has raised $785.63 which has been used in buying furnishings. Quite a liberal amount of linen and hospital supplies were presented at a linen shower Tuesday night, December 6. (Continued on Page 3.) NEGRO NORMAL WILL PROBABLY BE LOGATED IN NASHVILLE GIVES FACTS AND FIGURES TO SUBSTANTIATE HIS CLAIM FOR DAVIDSON COUNTY—ONLY 60,000 NEGROES IN EAST TENNESSEE—FINDS SEVERAL INSTITUTIONS OF LEARNING IN THAT SECTION OF STATE WITH INDUSTRIAL FEATURES — NASHVILLE BANNER MAKES STRONG PLEA FOR NASHVILLE. According to an act of the last Legislature the State Board of Education has authority to locate a Negro Normal and Industrial School at some point in the state. Efforts have been made in Nashville and Chattanooga to get the institution. Mr. Ben J. Carr, who is the chairman of the citizens' committee named some time ago, has an been active worker to get the institution located in this city. In talking of the proposition and the reasons for locating the institution in Nashville he said: "Nashville is in the center of the large Negro population of the state. East Tennessee all told, has a Negro population of 60,183, while Middle Tennessee and the western division have a combined Negro population of more than 300,000. East Tennessee has at Greeneville, at Riceville, at Athens, at Cleveland, at Bristol, at Rogersville and at Morristown and at, Knoxville private schools for the education of the Negro, all of which were gifts to them. The Morristown Normal and Institute is located upon seventy-five acres of fine land with eight buildings valued at $75,000. This school, with Knoxville College, built by the Presbyterians upon seventy-five acres of good land with fifteen buildings valued at $175,000, woud seem to afford excellent opportunities for the education of the small Negro population of East Tennessee, even if there were not the smaller institutions. And then, too, the state has already given them some aid, for Knoxville College received in 1907 $8,750 from the state. These schools are all so located that they give easy access to those who wish to attend. "Nashville is now prepared to make as good offer or inducement in a substantial way for its location as Chattanooga has made. In addition to this its location at Nashville in the very heart of the Negro population, gives a large advantage in the cost of travel. This should not be overlooked in determining the school's location. Nashville is the center of the higher education of the Negro in the entire United States, being blessed with Fisk, Walden, Roger Williams and Meharry, and not all of these can accommodate the students who would attend. The location of the Negro Normal and Institute in proximity to these will largely benefit the students of all, for knowledge is required to some extent by contact with the educated. "Two of the largest Negro publishing houses in the world are located in Nashville, to say nothing of the other splendid Negro business enterprises that are successfully managed by men of the race. All these would serve as inspirations for the students of the school to be located by the state. Again, the very best of feeling exists between the white and colored citizens of this county. There is scarcely a jar between them, and I believe I do not exaggerate when I say that the Mayor of Nashville has not an enemy among our people here. No place in the Union offers or has finer building sites for such an institution as the Normal and Industrial will be than has Davidson County. So far as I can learn, the white people are entirely willing that the school should be located here and in proximity to other Negro institutions." "The question of the location of the State Normal and Industrial School for Negroes is one of great importance, as it concerns the interests of the colored population of the state. The competition in this respect has narrowed practically to Nashville and Chattanooga and to the mind of the Banner there are cogent reasons why Nashville should be selected for the permanent location. "In the first place, Nashville is the more central point and far more accessible to the greater number of Negroes who would avail themselves of the instruction and benefits of the school. There are about 500,000 Negroes in Tennessee and of this number there are only about 60,000 in East Tennessee the bulk of the colored population living in the Middle and West divisions of the state. On the ground of accessibility and economy Nashville presents a striking advantage, which would make the institution more easily available to the greatest number of students. "Besides, Nashville affords other special advantages for a school of the character proposed. It is the location of prominent Negro universities and schools, the great educational center for colored students in the state, and instructs and graduates perhaps the greater number annually of the class of students that would naturally desire normal instruction as teachers, or who would wish to take industrial training that would fit them for self-sustaining activities and useful citizenship. In Nashville also are the largest publishing houses and interests conducted by colored people in the country, and this constitutes a strong factor in the cause of education. "So far as the financial and other inducements offered by the competing cities are concerned those offered in behalf of the location in this city are at least equal to those offered by Chattanooga, and even were a better contribution of funds offered as a bid for the school, the superior advantages and facilities to be found in Nashville should determine the selection for this city. "As the normal school is to be a permanent establishment, and is the only institution of the kind contemplated for Negroes, it is of especial importance that no mistake should be made in its location, and as Nashville is the central point and more closely in touch with the population affected, the location of the school should not be a question of favor to any city or locality, but one of promoting the best usefulness of the institution. And as the three white state normal schools have been located, there should be no further delay in locating the colored school." DR. W. S. ELLINGTON SPEAKS. Few addresses have been delivered before the young men of Nashville graced with more eloquence and sound facts than was the address delivered by Dr. W. S. Ellington last Sunday before a packed house under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association. Each Sunday for the past six weeks the association has been undergoing a series of lectures, each of which was full of wholesome advice. Dr. Ellington chose for a subject: "The young Negro; His contribution to the progress of the South." This he discoursed under the following heads. (1) "We have helped the South industrially in that we have helped to fell the forests and to build the cities and in fact we have been the industrial sinew of the South. (2) We have contributed largely to the financial progress of the South in that we have built homes and are property owners." At this point the speaker advised young men to save money deposit money and above all to learn to know the real value of a dollar. (3) He said that we had contributed to the manhood of the South and that we could continue to contribute in proportion as we learn to build up pure homes which can only be done by protecting them and establishing in them principles of genuine Christianity and real types of character. The Reverend did not fail to point out a number of our faults and urge that we would know both sides of the question. He insisted that we must build up a great race in the heart of the South thus making of our selves better American citizens. Among the distinguished visitors was Bishop C. H. Phillips, who made some very timely remarks. On next Sunday Rev. A. G. Coombs, Rector of the Holy Trinity, Church, will lecture to men only. "Meaning of real socialism," from 3 to 4 p. m. at the association rooms, 447 Fourth avenue, North. All men invited! Meeting one hour long. The Bible class continues on Wednesday evenings from 7 to 8. Let every citizen be present. INQUIRING FOR RELATIVES. One Mrs. Jane Wilson, who failed to give her resident city, writes the Globe, asking information concerning her brothers and sisters. She left them in Gibbon County. The family name was Sharp. The communication was signed by one W. F. Smith. Any information concerning Mrs. Wilson's relatives will be printed in this paper. No. 50 DIVERSIFIED Emphasized at Farming Conference at Normal. DEMONSTRATIONS ON COLLEGE FARM-OVER TWO HUNDRED FARMERS PRESENT-EXPERTS FROM FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PRESENT-NEGRO URGED TO DO BETTER FARMING-PRESIDENT BUCHANAN DELIVERS ABLE ADDRESS - INSIST ON RIGHTS, BUT DO YOUR DUTY, KEYNOTE OF ADDRESS. Huntsville, Ala., Dec. 16.—Diversified farming, stock raising and dairying were emphasized in the short course for Negro farmers held here at the Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes, of which Walter S. Buchanan is president. The course was concluded today with demonstrations on the college farm, and has been in progress all the week. More than two hundred Negro farmers from this section of the state have witnessed the demonstrations and heard the lectures in many instances being accompanied by their wives and families. The demonstration work was in charge of George W. Patterson, government agent for this immediate district, while the whole course was under the immediate direction of T. M. Campbell, representing the United States Department of agriculture for the district of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. Assisting in the demonstrations were W. A. Tate, C. D. Menafee, Harry W. Simms and George W. Patterson. Prof. Campbell called attention to the effort the United States Department of Agriculture is making to be of distinct help and encouragement to farmers throughout the South and urge the sympathetic co-operation on the part of Negro farmers. He declared that in as much as they formed a goodly portion of the agricultural population of the Southland, it was incumbent upon the Negro to reap as much benefit as possible out of their farm work. A notable address before the farmers and visitors was made by President Walter S. Buchanan, who is himself an agricultural expert. He stated in the outset that it was the duty of landlords to encourage their Negro renters, share-croppers and wage-earners to take advantage of latter day instruction in farming, not only to the end that the laborers themselves might be benefited, but that the largest possible returns might be made to them individually. Among other things, Prof. Buchanan said; "I am glad that all classes of Negro farmers are taking a keener interest in scientific agriculture-book farming, as we used to call it. We have been a long time learning the absurdity of the statement that any old fool can farm. It is being proved more and more to our satisfaction that the man who puts the most brain into the soil reaps the largest harvest. This is true whether the farmer be a renter, share-cropper, wages hand or owner. The man who gets the largest crop at the lowest cost is a desirable citizen in whatever community, and he will soon be the owner of his farm, no matter how high the cost. "It is encouraging to note that at that this short course we have mothers and fathers, young men and women, who are share-croppers and wage-hands, as well as those who are renters and owners. Now when you return to your home, put into practice the things you have learned here. Practice them regardless of whether you are working for wages or running on your own hook. I know of a man who allowed the rain to spoil a whole winter's supply of feed for him because the landlord refused to repair the roof of his barn. Insist on having the landlord do his fair share, but don't allow your crop, your stock, your family and your standing as a farmer to suffer because a miserly and nonprogressive landlord won't do his duty. Some of us let the house we live in rot down and refuse to drive a nail because we don't own the place—yet we live there from year to year and subject our wives and children to (Continued on Page 4.)

It is being demonstrated from all points of view that the subordinate lodges of Nashville Knights of Pythias are growing with exceeding rapidity. It seems that each member from the oldest to the youngest here located is striving within themselves to make a showing morally, financially and numerically to the entire world that will establish history everlasting. A few weeks ago one of the youngest lodges, Stonewall No. 105, gave a free lunch to their invited guests, which has caused many to join their ranks, and only Monday night, December 12, another young lodge, Friendship 72, gave a smoker of a similar nature, which was untold success from all points of view. Too much can not be sald of Friendship No. 72, for if there was ever a lodge in the jurisdiction that is making progress 'tis this number. Many made interesting talks, after the C. C., R. C. Martin, had made his preliminary talk. All left at a late hour after the principal speakers had furnished their discourses, who were Knights J. Blaine, P. F. Hill, J. H. Kelly, Jr., Dr. Napier, Ernest McGuire. The following are the present officers of Friendship Lodge No. 72: R. C. Martin, C. C.; G. S. Deen, V. C.; Leon Polk, Prelate; Dr. R. A. White, K. of R. and S.; Oliver Dismukes, M. of F.; Lewis Carney, M. of Ex.; F. W. Corrington, M. at A.; James Scott, O. G.; Oliver Hooks, I. S. To the Nashville Globe The president of the City Unions of the Bible Bands, Sister Cottrell, and also Sister Black and Sister Murdicks met with the Bible Band of the First Baptist Church, Free Silver Plan, Tenn. A discussion was held upon temperance. Remarks were made by Mr. Ernest Garrett, Mr. Newcom, of Cuba, and by the pastor, Rev. H. E. Pennington, who is much encouraged over the progress of the Bible Band. SUNSHINE BAND A Sunshine Band was organized by Sister Josie Pennington at the First Baptist Church. Free Silver Plan, who has not only been faithful in the Bible Band work, but in all Christian work that comes to her hands. Mrs. George Bell, of Mississippi, is here visiting her parents, Rev. and Mrs. H. E. Pennington, of the Brick Church pike. MR. NAPIER'S WASHINGTON TRIP. "The new Register-elect of the Treasury of the United States, Mr. J. C. Napier, spent the week at the nation's capital," says 'a Washington special. He was there in the interest of the educational work, being a member of the Anna T. Jeane Board and to witness the corner-stone laying of the new building of Howard University. He is expected home today or Saturday. A Globe reporter saw Mrs. Napier on Wednesday, but she could not give out anything definite about when they expect to leave, in fact, she said, "I wish you wouldn't say anything of our going, for there is something which ties us here even though we appreciate the honor already shown by the naming of Mr. Napier for the position. I do not know of his plans other than he is waiting for definite news." DEATHS Joseph H. Patterson, 168 Fillmore street, 1 year. Laura Fanning, 1004 Tenth avenue, South, 51 years. Dock Burfly, 904 Warren 70 years. Mary Moore, 57 Lincoln alley, 58 years. Sandy Kirkpatrick, City Hospital, 49 years A number of individuals and clubs have contributed $50 for fitting up rooms which will bear the names of the donors. Among them are Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, Dr. and Prof. Burrus, The Young Peoples' Missionary Society of the First Holiness Church of Nashville, Lea Avenue Christian Church, Mrs. G. W. Hubbard. One hundred dollars was given in memory of Miss K. L. Lyons for fitting up a female ward in an upper story. It is expected that several more rooms will be fitted up by private contributions. The outfit for the surgical operating room has been purchased from the J. B. Dixon Fund. Dr. Dixon was a graduate of Meharry, Class of 1885. At his death, about ten years ago, he left a small fund to be used for hospital purposes. This was placed at interest. The fund will be used for the maintenance of this room which will bear his name. Head Nurse, Miss C. C. Hunt. As was announced in these columns a few weeks ago, the head nurse, Miss C. C. Hunt, of Greensboro, N. C., a well-trained and proficient nurse, highly recommended and of a pleasant disposition, is on hand and has been at the hospital for the past two weeks directing the arrangement of affairs preparatory to the opening. She is a person of large experience and besides being a graduate of one of the leading hospitals of the country, has had the privilege of serving in and visiting many large and well-equipped hospitals. Miss Hunt seems perfectly at home in her new position and expressed herself as being agreeably pleased with the efforts put forth. She believes it possible to develop a great institution. Patients Want Admittance. So pressing is the need of the hospital the authorities were forced to throw open the doors last Friday and accommodate an emergency case. A number of applications have been received from patients desiring admission. Class of Nurses Ready to Begin. Despite the fact that the hospital was not ready for occupancy at the beginning of the term, about twelve nurses were on hand ready to begin work. Many of them have been in the city for the past three months pursuing their studies and waiting for the opening of the hospital. Already the number of applicants for admission is so great it is not possible to accommodate them, and within the past few weeks as many as forty or more have been refused admission. The Interior. The floors of the basement are of cement and are well founded so as to prevent seepage and dampness, also to prevent the lodgment of rodents and decaying vegetation. This space has been divided into the following departments: Nurses' kitchen, nurses dining room, linen room, internes' apartment, admitting room, baths, etc. There is also provided an emergency operating room and an emergency ward, where the quickest preparation possible can be made when time is costly to the life of the patient. The walls are clean and white and the whole is maintained in an aseptic condition. Main Floor. At the rear of this floor is located the diet kitchen. There is also a number of wards containing from two to four beds each. The head nurse has an apartment conveniently situated to the right end near the center. A spacious parlor has been furnished by the Hospital Club, which is located to the left of the building and fronting Second avenue, South. The furnishings are elegant, comfortable and substantial. Second Floor. At the front of the building on the second floor a large suite of rooms, containing sixteen beds, has been equipped for male patients. There is also a large ward for female patients on this floor. Ample provisions for baths has been made. The main operating room, large, well arranged, having lots of light and air, suitable to accommodate over a hundred or more students to witness operations, bearing the name of the donor, is also on this floor, and is complete in detail from a standpoint of sanitation. Besides a number of smaller wards in addition to those already mentioned the remaining space is taken up by the surgeons' bath and dressing room, anesthetizing and sterilizing rooms. The woodwork in all parts of the building is of hard wood highly finished and filled. Nurses' Cottage. A cottage for nurses consisting of five rooms is located just at the rear of the hospital which has been properly prepared and comfortably fitted sufficiently to accommodate the nurse-training classes.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1910 Hubbard Hospital. . The dedication of the first wing of the Hubbard Hospital marks another epoch in the steady march upward of the Negro race in the South, and when completed this addition to Meharry Medical College will stand as a living monument to the memory of him for whom the hospital is named. This one increases the number of substantial brick buildings of the medical institution proper to four and will probably be the last attempt on the part of Dean Hubbard to erect a building, for it cannot be denied that he is getting on toward the end of his time, and his friends—and they are many—rejoice with him to-day in this achievement that he has longed to see a reality. Many good things were said during the exercises in the chapel. Every speaker was in a pleasant mood, but the Hon. J. C. Napier struck the keynote when he mentioned the fact that Mehary Medical College is one of the two Nego institutions recognized by the highest tribunal in this country for the promotion of medical science. We do not mean to create the impression of selfishness, or that we rejoice at the shortcomings of any Negro medical college in the country, far from that, for when it is taken into consideration that scores of the medical colleges of the white people have been condemned, and many that have been in operation much longer than the oldest Negro college in the country, every Negro should be proud to know that two of those conducted for and largely by Negroes are accepted on the eligible list. The graduates of Meharry are to be congratulated for the interest they have taken in this hospital. No set of men can realize the need of this addition to the college as well as those who had to get their training without such a help. We know they will not even now feel that they have done their full duty, but will labor on with Dean Hubbard and the faculty to make Meharry the best medical college in the country. Dixon a Coward. We have had with us this week Thomas Dixon's new play, "The Sins of the Father," and ex-Rev. Mr. Dixon to explain between acts why he wrote the play. We wonder how many white fathers were convicted at the Dixon camp-meeting? We ven- NASHVILLE GLOBE FRIDAY. DECEMBER 16. 1910 ture the assertion that nine-tenths of those who went to see the play left with the conclusion that Mr. Dixon is a coward. The ex-minister's conscience has at some time pricked him, and he was forced to lay aside the pulpit robe, and was bidden to tell the world of the sins of the white fathers of this country; but he is a Jonah and has not done what his Creator directed he should do. Amalgamation is a curse under any circumstances, but illegitimate amalgamation is a damnable curse, and those who practice it will in the end reap their damnation. Mr. Dixon points out the sins of the fathers, but he tries to justify them in their sins by deriding the Negro. In that he proves himself to be a moral coward. Because the color of a man's skin is white, is he justified in beguiling a woman whose skin is black? Is it his right to take his money and his influence and throw them at the feet of a poverty-stricken woman, and when he shall have become the father of her children, is he justified in casting them from him? Mr. Dixon says he can be, but he knows he is not telling the truth, and he knows he is not doing his whose duty toward his Creator nor toward his people. The truth will be told some day, and the black woman who have been outraged all these years will receive that sympathy they deserve, and the curse of the fathers will be on their children. The New York Age thinks the Globe was on the "skeered" list because we took note of the timely editorial in the Philadelphia Tribune on the complexion of the next Congress and the probability of an attempt being made to repeal the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments." The Age says the Globe was "skeered" a whole column. We note that our able contemporary devoted almost a column to a discussion of the same subject. Is the Age "skeered" too? The latest plea of some of our Southern white friends is that they were not able to do very much for the Negro right after the war, Dr. M. C. B. Mason says, "They certainly did not." And there you are. At the rate the pickpockets, pu.snatchers and thugs are relieving the people of their cash, there will not be anything for Santa Claus to do. Some Negroes in Oklahoma are organizing democratic clubs. Wonder if they will be exempt from the Grandfather Clause? WILL SPEND HOLIDAYS GEORGIA Mrs. Addie Moore, of 1805 West Church street, is on a six weeks visit in Americus, Ga. During her stay she will meet many of her old friends and on her return trip will stop in Macon, Ga. for a few days. WOMAN'S AUXILIARY. The Ladies' Auxiliary of Spruce Street Baptist Church met at Mrs. Callie Deshazers's home Friday afternoon, December 9, at 3 o'clock. The meeting was called to order by the president. After transaction of business a few minutes, a tempting menu was served. The Auxiliary will meet next Friday, December 16, at Mrs. Clairborne's, 508 Quarry street, at 3 o'clock. MRS. A. MITCHEL, Pres. MISS M. JOHNSON, Sec. Chicago, Ill., Dec. 15, 1910. Special to The Globe. While at Wayman Chapel attending services on last Sunday morning, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Nolan was almost destroyed by fire. By the quick arrival of the fire department, part of the valuable furniture was saved. The house will be immediately repaired and on Christmas, Mr. and Mrs. Nolan will visit Nashville. They will be the guests of Mrs. Anderson Cartwright, 1722 Patterson street. Mrs. Nolan is a sister to Mrs. Cartwright. GIVEN JUDGMENT FOR $200. Special to the Globe. Shelbyville, Tenn.—The suit by Rev. J. A. Crump vs. the Western Union Telegraph Company for failure on the part of said company to deliver a telegram sent to Mrs. Crump at the instance of the death of her father, who lived in the State of Arkansas, was given its first hearing at this place last Saturday and Monday. The suit was brought against the company asking for a damage of $500. The lower court gave the plaintiff judg- ment for the sum of $200. The case was appealed to the circuit court which will try the same, this week. Mr. Jerry Watkins, student of the University of Chicago, will leave the city next week for DeKalb, Miss., where he will spend the holidays with his relatives and friends. ROGER WILLIAMS VISITED BY MISS MOORE. On the morning of December the 8th Miss Joanna P. Moore came to our chapel exercises, and after a brief introduction by the president she led our morning's devotions. She selected for the morning's lesson the 119th Psalm and the 113 and 115 verses. After a few brief words of comment thereon, she led us in a fervent prayer. Miss Moore is our friend. Her work among us for more than fifty years is sufficient proof of her loyalty to us. In her message to us on the same morning she emphasized the facts: the matter of cleanliness in everything, the idea of being reliable, and whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. Her message to us was indeed an interesting one and every one of us was benefited thereby. On Sunday evening, December 11th, Prof. Zeller, of Walden University, delivered a strong and practical address before the student body on the subject: "Law of duty and well-being." Dr. Zeller is a man of large experience and speaks as one in authority of practical matters. Among other things he said that if we know things we are happy in doing them because life is after all work. The beautiful illustrations he made as pertains to talents will not soon be forgotten by all who heard him. We have been especially blessed within the last few days by wholesome advice and suggestions from people of broad experience such as Miss Moore and Prof. Zeller. The Young Men's Christian Association of Roger Williams University, in harmony with the faculty and with a view to the improvement of their reading room, invite you cordially to be present at a "Book Shower Entertainment" on the evening of December 23rd from 7:30 to 9:30 in the parlors of Philips Hall. You are, therefore, requested to bring with you some favorite periodical or subscription to same, or some choice book or the value of either. HAYNES-BOSS Wednesday evening, December 14, at 8 o'clock, the beautiful Fisk Memorial Chapel was almost filled with friends to witness the wedding of Professor George Edmund Haynes, of Arkansas, and Miss Elizabeth Ann Ross, of Alabama, the culmination of a romance dating from their college days at Fisk. The bride, groom and bridesmaid were of the college class of 1904, while the best man, class of 1904, was an intimate friend and room-mate of the groom. The church had been beautifully decorated with ferns and magnolia brunches. Promptly at 8 o'clock, Miss Alice M. Grass began playing the Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin by Wagner as the bridal party entered. The groom entered from the rear of the chapel with the best man, Rev. C. L. Miller, of Haverhill, Mass., and took his place at the altar awaiting the bride. From the vestibule came the matron of honor, Mrs. W. A. Hunton, of Brooklyn, N. Y., and Miss Esther Pinkard, of Nashville, the bridesmaid, followed by the bride, leaning upon the arm of Mr. W.' A. Hunton who took the place of the bride's faher. They were married with the impressive ring service, Dr. C. W. Morrow, college pastor, also pastor during their school days, officiating. As the bridal party left the altar Mendelssohn's Wedding March was played. The bride was dressed in heavy white duchess satin with - draped bodies and princess lace. She wore a veil of net and princess lace and wreath of orange blossoms. On her arm she carried a shower bouquet of lilies of the valley and maiden hair ferns. The matron of honor wore a black spangled gown over black silk, carrying American beauties and ferns. The bridesmaid wore a gown of imported Penia cloth, from the Philippine Islands, over white satin. She carried white Marechal Niel roses. Professor Haynes, Rev C. L. Miller and Mr. W. A. Hunton were handsomely attired in conventional black. After the ceremony the reception followed in the parlors of Jubilee Hall. The color scheme of pink and white was very effectively carried out in the decorations and refreshments. Professor and Mrs. Haynes were the recipients of many valuable presents from the students and faculty of Fisk University, the National Young Women's Christian Association and many other friends in the city and elsewhere. Among the out-of-town guests besides Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Hunton, of Brooklyn, N. Y., and Rev. Clifford L. Miller, of Haverhill, Mass., was Mrs. Sloan, of Hot Springs, Ark., mother of the groom. Since his graduation from Fisk Professor Haynes has studied in Yale, receiving the M. A. degree. Later he entered the Y. M. C. A. work as one of the International Secretaries. For the past two years he has been pursuing his studies in the New York School of Philanthropy and Columbia University. He has recently assumed the professorship of the Department of Social Sciences, Fisk University. Miss Ross has taught very successfully in the Sumner High School, St. Louis, Mo., and in the State Normal School of Montgomery, Ala.

NATIONAL BAPSTIST SUNDAY SCHOOL INSTITUTE SCHOOL INSTITUTE. The National Baptist Sunday-School Institute, now in progress at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, is proving to be the most instructive and helpful meeting ever held in the city. The opening session was held Tuesday afternoon, and was attended by several pastors and some of the most prominent Sunday-School workers in the city. Dr. Plus, Superintendent Teacher-Training, who I conducted the Institute, stated the plan of the meeting and was followed by Dr. C. H. Clark, Chairman of the Publishing Board. Rev. Slaughter was asked to preside during the afternoon session and Mrs. Nannie Perkins to act as secretary. The enrollment showed several schools represented. A splendid song service was conducted by the conductor, after which the first subject was taken up. Conductor Plus gave an interesting lesson with blackboard outline, the subject being "The Call to Service." Sister Joanna P. Moore, who is one of the best informed and thoroughly consecrated workers in the Christian world, gave an interesting talk on preparation and love for service. The night session was a remarkably effective one. The song service was spirited and consequently enjoyable. Rev. B. F. Ferrell, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, presided and conducted devotions. After a brief lesson by conductor Pius, Prof. H. M. Hamill, D. D., Chairman of the Educational Committee of the International Sunday-School Association and Teacher-Training Superintendent of the M. E. Church, South, was introduced. Dr. Hamill is a real Sunday-School expert, having been associated with B. F. Jacobs, deceased, who was the acknowledged premier Sunday-School expert of his day. His address on "The Art of Sunday-School Teacher," charmed the many Sunday-School workers who were fortunate enough to hear him. All present were convinced that they were in the presence of a master mind. Wednesday afternoon's session found the workers full of interest and anticipation, and they were by no means disappointed. Conductor Pius followed the song service with a brief lesson, after which Mrs. H. M. Hamill. The meeting will continue until Sunday afternoon when it closes with a great Union Mass-meeting to which everybody is cordially invited. CHRISTMAS VOISITORS. Miss Marie E.

Stockard, 1616 State (Cont'nued from Page 1.) much suffering and sickness. This is what drives our boys and girls from the farms and away from our hearth-sides. For our own sakes, let us make our homes comfortable and inviting whether we own them or not. "These scientific farmers are going to talk to you about deep plowing and will perhaps say that the results of deep plowing show up better three years after than does the first year. Some share-croppers and renters are so short-sighted they won't plow deep for fear they will be making the land better for some one else. If all renters practice such a narrow policy, then rented land would never be improved. On the other hand if all our farmers do their utmost to put the farms on which they work in first-class shape, no matter what farm a man moved to, he would find it in good condition. "It is this class of farmers we must reach through our short-courses and schools of agriculture. For generations to come the great mass of us will be share-croppers or renters or wage earners. It is this mass we would reach. They constitute, not the Negro problem, but the South's agriculture problem, and as long as they sit in lethargy and darkness, the development of the South must proceed against the dead burden of their ignorance and inefficiency."

Our reporter's illness has been the cause of our not writing before this. Mr. Henry Chariton, who has been an invalid for several years, died Tuesday night. He was a member of the Baptist church. Funeral services were conducted Thursday by Rev. Ed Ransom. Mr Luster Wade was found dead in his room Thursday evening. He had a spell-the evening before and falling into the fire, was burned to death. He and his widowed mother, Mrs. Mary J. Anderson, constituted the family. She, being a sick nurse, was near Murtreesboro at the time of the occurrence. He was a member of the M. A. Society. Mr. Arthur Love was so badly cut about the face and eye last Friday that the extraction of the left eye was necessary. The operation, which was a tedious one, was performed by Dr. J. H. Hamilton alone, who proved himself master of the situation. Dr. Hamilton has stood the crisis which must come to every professional man in his early career, and now his medical advice is sought to such an extent that he is kept busy. He is expecting to leave next week to be gone till after the holidays, visiting relatives and friends, at his old home, Asheville, S. C. Notwithstanding the fact that the two men who were in the Murfreesboro jail for assault were identified by their accuser, still there is reason to believe they are innocent. The only hope is to prove an alibi, which can be done by witnesses both white and black. They are strangers and without money and should have the sympathy of all. A movement is on foot to solicit means to help secure legal talent so that their case may be well presented at the next trial. FRANKLIN NOTES. Rev. Richard Baugh was buried last Friday. Miss Mattle Kimbro was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Ulysses Hughes, of Farmers Bluff, last Sunday and Monday. Mrs. John Wilkins, Jr., has returned from Columbia, Tenn. Rev. J. T.

Robins, Mr. Phil McNairy, after which Dr. Denney, with well-chosen words, told the people of his many good plans that he wanted to carry out during his pastoral period in Franklin. Dr. J. S. Williams was master of ceremonies. A nice menu was served by the sisters of the church. Mrs. Lucy Patton was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Sparkman last Sunday. The little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Mason, who has been sick with the fever, is improving very much. Mrs. H. J. Ewing and her two daughters were the guests of Mesdames Lucy and J. T. Patton.

COME RIGHT NOW, YOU MAY NEVER HAVE A CHANCE TO BUY A HOME IN THIS WAY AGAIN. SPORTING NE The foot ball season is over and the referee's whistle is heard no more, and the veteran gridiron warriors have left the field of battle, put aside their togs of war and the field, once rife with songs and yells, cornet and horn, is now desolate and barren—all is still. Those who were victors are feasting on the carcass of their victims, and those who were victims are weeping and gnashing their teeth with these doleful strains: "Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the sadest are these, it might have been." In a financial way the season has been the most successful in many seasons. The heavy gate receipts have been the means whereby the respective athletic associations have been able to exonerate their credit with the business men down town. The patrons of the game seemed to have been more enthused, and in many instances have been seen at games when really their business interests were to some degree at stake. All this goes to show that fanaticism is becoming more powerful among the patrons of the college pastime. The coaches and promoters have well mastered every phase of the new rules. The colleges of Nashville as well as the Nashville public should rejoice in the fact that the wilt, strategy and skill displayed by her players can only be equaled by the heavy teams of the East and West. This statement has already been verified by men who have actually seen this season such teams as Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois lock horns. The teams of Nashville have proven themselves able to master the rules each season, whatever revolutionary measures have been brought to bear by the Rules Committee. Pearl High brought forward one of the pluckiest little teams and at the same time one of the most aggressive the Nashville public has seen in many moons. She handled cleverly every phase of the new game much to her credit. While she has probably had a better record in point of victories, yet it is generally admitted that her all-round play was an improvement over former years. Walden, with an inglorious record behind her, entered the fray this season with her husky ```markdown ``` WHEELER REALTY CO.. G NEWS. bunch of rough and tumble warriors that made trouble for all the smaller teams. Roger Williams, with her bunch of new material, showed signs of marked improvement over that of last year. Fisk and Meharry, strong in every department of the game, came forward with their usual strong aggregations. "YOUR DAUGHTER WILL MARRY BETTER." Every right minded parent is anxious regarding the matrimonial ventures of the children. The best husband is a thoughtful, successful man who manages his own affairs well. As the young man expects to marry, he will pick the girl who will be the most independent at a home of her own. The most independent is the one, who, when need be, can cook a good meal. The one who learns this best at home is the child of the family who has a National steel range in the kitchen. Because it cooks well, looks well and saves in price and fuel, therefore all who come in contact with it feel kindly toward it. The cook feels towards her National range, as a chauffeur does towards his Auto, as an engineer does towards his locomotive. No matter what food you buy, it will do most good to the eater when prepared on the National. Give one to the family as a Christ-mas present or advise that the head of the house buy one. Remember PHILLIPS & BUTTORFF'S is the place to buy toys and holiday goods. Essentials for nursery, dining-room, kitchen, laundry and dairy. "You will be welcome there always." Your prompt attention to this will be greatly appreciated. FUNERAL OF MRS. RACHEL BEALE. The funeral of Mrs. Rachel Beale, one of the pioneer citizens of Nashville, was held from the Pleasant Green Baptist Church last Wednesday afternoon. The services were very impressive and were conducted by Revs. Wm. Haynes, J. C. Fields, Shelby and Preston Taylor. Mr. J. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1910. Phillips & Buttorff Mfg. Co. C. Napier, a life-long friend of the family, also made some touching remarks. The floral designs coming from a host of friends were beautiful. Mrs. Beale leaves several sons and daughters and many relatives and friends. THE GEORGE W. HUBBARD HOSPITAL CLUB. The George W. Hubbard Hospital Club met in the parlors of the hospital on Tuesday, December 13, 1910. The reports of the various entertainments composed the important business of the meeting. The Iron Master, given under the direction of Mrs. Langston and which proved such a success from merit was also a financial success. There were heavy expenses attached to the production of this drama, but the club congratulates Mrs. Langston upon turning over in cash $44.60 net. The Linen Shower was a great success. The largest collections were by Mrs. Burrus, Mrs. Southall, of Franklin, Tenn., Mrs. W. A. Reed and Mrs. J. A. McMillan. The reading by Mr. Burroughs was a decided success and all who heard him were greatly pleased. A check for one hundred dollars ($100), left by Miss Kate Lyons, was presented to the club for the furnishing of a room in the hospital which is to be named in her memory. The amount collected at the meeting was two hundred twenty-two dollars ($222). Our next entertainment will be a recital by Mlle. Marie E. Burton, soprano, on January 2, 1911, at Meharry Auditorium, under the management of Mrs. J. H. Hale. EAST STAR LODGE ELECTS OF FICERS. On Tuesday night of this week East Star Lodge No. 20 A.
