DR. C. V. ROMAN DELIVERS MASTERFUL ADDRESS AT FISK UNIVERSITY—PROMINENT .SPEAKERS AT WALDEN AND ROGER WILLIAMS—EXERCISES LARGELY ATTENDED—HON. W. T. VERNON CENTRAL FIGURE IN GEORGIA—SPEAKS TO PACKED HOUSE IN ATLANTA—DR. W. S. BUCHANAN IN MONTGOMERY, ALA.
Emancipation Day was fittingly celebrated in this city Monday. All of the schools had prepared special programs for the occasion.
At Roger Williams University, the speaker for the occasion was Dr. A. M. Townsend; at Walden University, T. Clay Moore; and at Fisk University, Dr. C. V. Roman, Editor of the Journal National Medical Association. Dr. Roman's address has been the topic of discussion during the week, and it is the general opinion that the Doctor's effort on Emancipation Day has never been surpassed, not even by himself. He said in part:
Impartial self-examination evinces the highest intellectuality and paves the way for the triumphs of worldly wisdom, which consists in the renunciation of things impossible and the co-operation with things inevitable.
This is as true of races as of individuals. There should be periods of self-examination and efforts at orientation; periods or boxing the compass and taking soundings, as it were.
Emancipation day is, or should be, a period of self-examination—of retrospect and prospect. We should not only "look before and after and sigh for what is not" but examine the things that are and work for what we want. "What is the set of our souls?" Are we headed in the right direction? Direction and not speed determines the final landing place.
Emancipation! Emancipation of whom? and by whom?
How came one under the hand of the other?
This line of inquiry would lead us too far afield for it would not only embrace the origin of stavery, a discussion of human rights, and the evolution of civilization, but the origin of terrestrial life and the history of mankind. Civilization has arisen like the coral isles of the sea—succeeding generations building upon the skeletons of predecessors.
The histor y of the world may well be called the martyrdom of man. Slavery was but a phase of evolution and one of the many manifestations of "man's inhumanity to man."
Human knowledge is descriptive rather than explanatory. Why? Why?
A study of history will furnish us a knowledge of how individuals and races have prospered or perished if not why they did these things. In other words, it is plain what factors determine success, and what determine failure. Though it is not always plain why one set of factors should predominate here and another set there. Neither mythology nor philosophy offers any satisfactory explanation. The uncertain twilight of tradition is about as illuminating on this point as the one-sided, if not wilfully mendacious, chronicles of recorded history. Prometheus stealing fire from heaven for the benefit of mankind and getting punished by having a woman, Pandora, thrown into the bargain, is about as instructive and consoling as the Monism of Hueckel or the parthenogenesis of Loeb. I accept either prefer to base my philosophy of life upon the Scriptural doctrine, one human blood and a just God. The same processes will bring the same results with all peoples.
Let us then to-day par tribute to the heroes of civilization, especially those of the emancipation which today we celebrate. There were four kinds of abolitionists: (a) those who pitied the slaves, (Mrs. Harriet B. Stowe); (b) those who

DR. W. T. HORTON, M. D.
Dr. W. T. Horton, Deputy Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, N. A., S. A., E., A., A. and A., and Deputy Grand Counsellor, resides two and one-half miles from Eades Tennessee, on the Memphis branch of the N., C. & St. L. R. R. He has the distinction of organizing more lodges and courts than any other single individual in Tennessee. The redeeming feature about him is that after he has organized an institution he still retains their good will and loyalty. Dr. Horton has an ex-

The language of cutyogy contains no words sufficiently laudatory wherewith to fitly express the disinterested self-abnegation and high moral purpose of the early abolitionists or their worthy congeners who followed in the wake of the victorious union armies and who with the spelling book and Bible in their hands and the grace of God in their hearts, laid a foundation for the Christian education of the manumitted slaves, which alone prevented the golden apples of liberty from turning to the ashes of licentiousness in the hands of the newly made freedman.
It would indeed be a pleasant task, did time permit, to call the roll of the heroes of emancipation from the illustrious Wilberforce to the venerable dean of Meharry. It is as glorious a company as has ever arisen among the children of men. Braden and Cravath, Spence and Chase, et id genus omne! Let us garland their graves with roses and hand down the story, of their lives as a cherished legacy to our children.
"The muffled drum's sad roll has beat The soldiers' last tattoo, No more on Life's parole shall meet
No more on Life's parole shall meet
This brave and fallen rew.
On fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead."
"Still there are some few remaining Who remind us of the past."
"May the blessing of God wait upon them and the sun of glory shine around their heads. May the gates of plenty, honor and happiness be always open to them and theirs. May no strife disturb their days nor sorrow distress their nights, and may the pillow of peace kiss their cheeks, and pleasures of imagination attend their dreams; and when length of years makes them tired of earthly joys, and the curtains of death close gently around the scenes of their existence, may the angels of God attend their beds and take care that the expiring lamp of life shall not receive one rude blast to hasten its extinction; and finally, may the Savior's blood wash them from all impurities and prepare them to enter into the land of everlasting felicity."

There is a growing demand amongst the Pythians of West Tennessee that Dr. Horton be more substantially unincumbered by the next grand lodge which shall convene in Chattanooga next year. They are anxious that he go higher. Dr. Horton is a graduate from Meharry Medical College, Nashville.
MAYOR HOWSE
MAYOR HOWSE
SPEAKS IN PLAIN LANGUAGE CALL ON THE GOVORNER AS A CITIZEN-WILL GO AGAIN WHEN HE FEELS LIKE IT.
Mayor Howse, when shown the article in one of the daily papers with a flaming headline that the Mayor had been to call on the Governor, and that something was up, the Mayor said: "I didn't know until this morning that it was a crime to call on the Governor of Tennessee," said Mayor Howse in discussing an article appearing in a morning paper regarding conference between Mayor Howse and Maj. Vertrees and Governor Patterson.
"I went to see Governor Patterson," said the Mayor, "just as any citizen has a right to do. I went not for the purpose indicated in the morning paper, but for the purpose of talking over the location of the colored State Normal School, and to see about a pardon. Maj. Vertrees was in the Governor's office when I went in, and I came from the capitol with him, but neither, of us knew that the other was there or going to be there. It is likewise true that we did discuss the legislative situation, just as every other person in this section is doing, but as for a meeting for that purpose or as to laying any plans, there is nothing to it."
Mayor Howse said that he expected to call on the Governor whenever he felt like it.
MLLE, MARIE E. BURTON AT ME-
HARRY AUDITORIUM.
A new year, filled with great things, dawned upon the people of this section. Their praises to God and the Emancipator of their forefathers were augmented by the melodious strains of music sung by the accomplished soprano, Miss Burton, of Chicago. The audience was composed of some of the best talent of the South who listened with intense earnestness to the harmoniuos melodies of the singer. The program was opened with an instrumental solo, entitled "Wanda" by Miss Mabel E. Scott, of Walden Music Department, which was rendered with much credit to herself and to the department. Miss Burton then appeared accompanied by Prof. Berry; she sang "Senora." which was excellently done and a song perfectly adapted to her voice. The last, of the group of three songs was "Taunt No Use in Crying" by Buchanan, which was loudly applauded and after which she was presented with an immense bouquet of American Beauties tied with white
ribbon. Biss Burton's stage appearance was perfect. Her French in Cavatine ("Queen of Sheba") was splendid and the rendition plainly exhibited her superior training. To the unceasing applause of this series she rendered a selection self-accompanied. In the last group she appeared gracefully, carrying the bouquet and singing "Sempre Conti" and concluding with "Good-Bye" (Tosti). Miss Burton is a graduate of the Chicago Conservatory of Music and has won the endorsement of authorities in voice culture. Her expression shows exceptional color.
Mrs. Alice Cheatham, of Clark University, who is regarded as one of the foremost readers and performers of her class, won overwhelming applause for her spendid rendition of selections from Dunbar. Mr. Count Teffner, the distinguished cornetist from Wiley, now of Meharry, rendered Honeysuckle Polka, which duly received a hearty encore. Both selections were rendered with perfection and ease, which always make his appearance a pleasing addition to any program. Prof. Berry, an accompanist, could not have been replaced. His perfect work enabled the singer to be such a great success.
The stage decorations were artistic and the palms formed a beautiful background for the singer. The ushers were Misses Bright, Jackson and Banks, of the H. T. G. M. Club, and Miss Roberts, of Walden. Messrs. G. Hamilton Francis and J. Q. Taylor. The gentlemen were in conventional dress while the young ladies wore white, which added considerably to the appearance of the occasion.
CONDITIONS IN AFRICA.
Dr. J. O. Reavis of the Presbyterian Board spoke before the institute at the Methodist Training School on conditions as he had seen them in Africa. Dr. Reavis was sent by his church to investigate the situation of their mission station in Africa. He snowed the great success his own church had met in their efforts among the people of the Congo, but spoke of the inadequacy of their means to meet the needs of fully two million people in their vicinity. Dr. Reavis said that the people of the Congo, both natives and missionaries, were praying for the M. E. Church, South, to enter the field. In behalf of his church he offered our missionaries when they came the use of their great missionary steamer, "The Lapsley."
Dr. Reavis said that the white people of the South could better adapt themselves to the climate in Africa than any other people in the world. He also spoke of the debt of the people of the South to Africa in that much of her wealth has come through the labor of these children of the Dark Continent.
DEATH OF MRS. KNOWLES.
The sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Mollie Malone-Knowles, in Montgomery, Ala., this week, came as a shock to her many friends. Although she had been in poor health for several months, encouraging letters written by her to friends in this city had inspired a hope that she would rally, but God, who is always just, saw fit to take her unto Himself and we must bow in humble submission.
Mrs. Knowles was the wife of Mr. Robt. Knowles, of Montgomery, Ala., but who at one time was a well known citizen of this city. She was a member of the prominent Malone family, whose parents were pioneer citizens of Nashville and who long ago were large property holders in this county. During Mrs. Knowles' young ladyhood she made one of a bevy of popular sisters, "the Malone girls," who were very prominent in Nashville society. All of these sisters, except one, Mrs. R. H. Voorhees, preceded her to that heavenly home, as did the father and mother and one brother. During her residence in Nashville Mrs. Knowles, who was a devout Christian, connected herself with the First Baptist Church, and when on visits to the city she would worship at this church.
Many years ago Mrs. Knowles was happily married to Mr. Robt. Knowles, who was a resident of Nashville at that time. To this union were born two lovely girls, Roberta and Gussie, who survive their mother and to whom a host of family friends extend sympathy. To the husband and father also is condolence extended; and to the sister and brother we can only say that the Lord giveth and taketh, and we must pray for His will to be done.
The remains were brought to Nashville. Tuesday and were conveyed to the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jos Knowles, from which place the funeral rites were said Tuesday afternoon by Rev. W. S. Ellington.
BIG TURKEYS
OF MUCH MERRIMENT MONDAY EVENING — FOURTEENTH ANNUAL EVENT—TABLES LADEN WITH CHOICE EATABLES—FEW VISITORS JOIN IN CELEBRATING THE OCCASION—PROF. CRENSHAW ORATOR OF THE DAY—DR. BOYD PRESENTED A FINE UMBRELLA—MR. JOHN H. KELLY MAKES PRESENTATION SPEECH.
At 2:30 p. m. Monday afternoon, the employees and members of the National Baptist Publishing Board ate their fourteenth annual New Year's dinner as the guests of Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd. The occasion was one of the most remarkable in the history of the institution and the dinner, according to Secretary Boyd's statement, was instituted when the Publishing Board's employees consisted of himself, Miss Lena Randals, Miss Julia McKinney and Prof. S. P. Harris, who is the only one of the last three named now with the institution.
January 1, 1897, was the beginning of the New Year's dinner, and the employees now on the pay roll have increased considerably in number since that time. An invitation was extended to each member of the Publishing Board in the city and each employee connected with or on the pay roll of the institution, yet only about one hundred twenty dined on last Monday with the Secretary and his wife.
The entire arrangement of the dinner, said Dr. Bovd, was left in the hands of Mr. L. Landers, the chief mailing clerk. The dinner proper was served in the chapel of the Publishing House, at 521 Second avenue, North. The seats, lecture stand and all movable furniture were taken out and twenty tables placed therein. The house was tastefully decorated with bunting and festooning in holiday colors. The words "Welcome" and "Happy New Year" beautifully worked in tissue paper banners were suspended from a dozen places in the ceiling almost covering the walls. Christmas bells hung from each chandelier. The usual dinner hour, 12 o'clock, was not taken by any of the employees; the manufacturing department working from seven o'clock until the bell rang for the annual feast, and the clerical force, which began its work at 8 o'clock, worked likewise. All had been instructed by Dr. Boyd on a previous accasion not to bring any lunch, so the appetites of all grew larger and larger every minute after 12 o'clock, and when the dinner bell did ring for them to wash their hands and prepare for the lunch, no time was lost, in fact not much primping was done.
At 2:30 o'clock notice was given that dinner was ready. The army of employees, headed by the Secretary of the Board and Chairman Clark, gathered around the festive board to do justice to the occasion. Grace was said by Dr. C. H. Clark, Chairman of the Board, after which a general devastation of the best eatables that the most experienced chef in Nashville could provide had begun. Such eatables as barbecued shout, baked chicken and turkey, boiled ham, salads, cakes, pies, celery, nuts, candies fruit and ice cream were served in abundance. While the dinner was being served, two visitors came in the persons of Prof. Trawick, of the Methodist Training School, and Mr. Weatherford, who has written several books pertaining to the work among Negroes. Dr. Boyd introduced them and both made appropriate remarks. The call was then made for Prof. J. D. Crenshaw, the editor of the Union-Review, who made one of his fascinating talks of the gratitude shown by the employees for this dinner and the apprecasion each one had for such an occasion. He yielded the oor for Mr J. H. Kelly, Jr., a member of the composing room, who led in singing, "Send out the light," the favorite song of Dr. Boyd, words and music by the late Wm. Rosborough. Everyone present joined in singing the beautiful produc

Rev. L. L. Howard, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, was pleasantly surprised one night last week by the members of the church and other friends.
It is a custom of long standing when a new pastor comes to a church, for the members and friends to give him a reception of welcome, but the members of St. John took a saner view of the situation and instead of giving their pastor a big reception, they put the same amount of money into provisions and on Tuesday night, right after the services were over, a great pile of eatables were laid down before the pastor, and he was hidden to take charge of the whole lot. Some gave cash and all told.

EAST FORK MINISTERS AND DEACONS.
In keeping with the special instructions given to him at the last meeting of the East Fork Association to select a place for holding the Ministers and Deacons Institute for the Association, Rev. E. F. Gooch has announced that the three days' session will take place Friday, Saturday and Sunday, February 17, 18 and 19, in the Rome Chapel Baptist Church, of Avondale, Tenn. A splendid program for this institute is being prepared and some of the well-known men from Nashville are to be present.
The officers of the meeting are Rev. C. R. Law, Moderator; Rev. R. Baker, Vice Moderator; Rev. C. Wat-

kins, Secretary. There is a Ladies' Auxiliary which is also to meet with the ministers and deacons. This will greatly increase the attendance, as well as the interest in the sessions. Every ordained or licensed preacher and every deacon in the associational district will be present during one of the sessions. Great preparations are being made by the members of the congregation of Rome Chapel as well as by the people of Avondale to care for as large a delegation as might come to the meeting. The topics to be discussed will be announced later on, said Rev. Gooch to a Globe reporter, who was in conversation with him about the plans.
ANDERSON LEADS COLLECTORS

BAPTIST MINISTERS OUTLINE
YEAR'S WORK.
The first meeting of the Baptis: City Ministers' Conference for this new year was held in the parlors of the National Baptist Publishing Board at the corner of Market and Locust streets Monday. The parlors were offered by Secretary Boyd on account of the chapel, where they usually meet being prepared for the New Year's dinner to the Publishing House employees. The sudden change in place of meeting which was not known to many of the pastors, kept the attendance down. The plans for the year's work were outlined by the chairman. It was announced that five standing committees would be named to look after and report on every phase of denominational work each month or from time to time as the case might be.
The installation of the officers for the year will take place on Monday, January 9. The meeting will be held in the usual place.
SPLENDID WORK OF SUNDAY:
SCHOOL
The annual report of Mt. Olive Baptist Sunday-School was made last Sunday morning. The report showed that the school under the careful management of the present superintendent, Rev. T. J. Lewis, who received the hearty co-operation of the pastor and of the church officials, made a very high record, in fact, surpassing any previous year in enrollment, attendance and collections. The average collection for the year was over $5.00 per Sunday. All of the obligations of the school were met and a nice balance brought forward. Dr. Clark stated that more work was to be done this year. The school thanks Mesdames A. S. Rucker and H. A. Boyd, with their assistants, for the Christmas exercises which were pronounced the best ever held in the history of the school.
CLAIMS THE SHOOTING WAS ACCIDENTAL.
Winston McGhee, of Una, Tenn, was shot Friday, December 30, by Andrew Beard while hunting. There were several in the party and their story of the tragedy is conflicting. Beard claims that the shooting was an accident, but McGhee asserts that Beard said he was going to shoot him. Other witnesses differ in their statements. McGhee was taken to a hospital and his wound was dressed. The assailant was arrested and locked up on a charge of attempt to commit murder.

THE LORD'S SUPPER THE RIGHT VESSELS USED TO COMMEMORATE IT
ANY Congregation can have its wants supplied by securing one of our Guardruple-Plated Table Silver ware Communion Sets at a moderate price and on reasonable terms. A set consists of one flagon, two goblets and two bread plates. If the church wants more goblets or plates, they can be furnished at an additional cost. The commemoration of the Lord's Supper is a very sacred ordinance. The custom for centuries has been to have special vessels for this occasion. Thus a communion set becomes an important part of this service. Many churches have used the old style communion set while others use an individual set. Both are appropriate and well-recommended. One is no reflection upon the other.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1911.
Emancipation Day.
On Monday of this week, January 2, Negroes in most of the Southern States celebrated the emancipation of the slaves. Forty-eight years have elapsed since that memorable day—a little less than half a century—and it is a remarkable progress that these ex-slaves and their children have made in that space of time. Forty-eight years ago there could not be found a dozen Negro men competent to address an intelligent audience. If Negroes wished to have some one speak words of encouragement to them they had to ask some white friend to deliver the address, but the passing of forty-eight years finds a decided change in affairs. The question now is not what Negro can be secured to deliver an address on Emancipation Day, but which speaker must be chosen for the occasion?
There is not as much enthusiasm manifested in this day as there should be, and especially is this true on the part of the young Negroes. The tendency to abhor the memory of slavery should be discouraged and the young people should be taught to honor the memories of all those men and women who labored for the abolishment of slavery; they should honor the men who signed the proclamation which gave liberty to over three million souls; they should also honor those men who had the courage to amend the constitution in a way to guarantee liberty to about eight hundred thousand other Negroes who were still being held in bondage after the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed; and finally, the young Negroes should be taught to honor, love and hold as a sacred trust the memories of their mothers and fathers who were beaten with many stripes and suffered death and yet under all of the persecution they continued to commune with the Supreme Ruler of the universe until he, by his divine arrangement, caused the bonds of slavery to be broken and all men made free.
As we remember reverently what our liberty cost, so will the giver of that liberty be pleased with our thoughts and deeds, and will make us prosper, but when we forget the source from whence this freedom came we will lose the ways of true
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1911.
development and retrogression will overtake us.
Another feature of this celebration that should receive serious consideration by our ablest thinkers is the conflicting dates. In some sections the day is celebrated in June and in others in August. Right here in Tennessee the Negroes are not together on a date. One day should be agreed upon and every Negro in the country should cease from labor and give that day to praise and thanksgiving.
Our Unfortunate Sufferers.
No Negro likes to be called poor, therefore we will refer to those who are suffering during this cold spell as unfortunate. There are scores of people in this city who are suffering for fuel, food and clothing. Many of them probably could have provided better than they did, but be that as it may, the fact remains that they are suffering now, and it is the duty of those who thought to prepare for such a time to help those who did not.
The unfortunate man is not altogether to blame for his condition. No man can live unto himself, therefore it behooves each individual to aid his brother in every way possible. When the sun is shining hot and life is easy it is the duty of the well-balanced man to counsel his thoughtless brother to purchase his coal when summer prices are on and to save the excursion money to buy clothes with for winter. Counsel and friendly advice will do more to alleviate the sufferings of the people than ridicule and abuse.
It is to be hoped that the Legislatures will not overlook the wayward black boy when they come to consider the Reformatories. It will not do much good to reform all the white boys and leave all the black boys to roam at will.
The Atlanta Independent handles several of our contemporaries without gloves in discussing the Odd Fellows' affair. If what the Independent says is true, then the other fellow ought to shut up.
The Negroes of Baltimore, MJ., are making strenuous efforts to prove unconstitutional the segregation law recently passed by the city council. Here is hoping they will succeed.
EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS.
Lawyer Milton Leshields is not satisfied with his handiwork when it comes to separating the two races. The one case this week has already discovered a weak place in his segregation amendment, and when an opportunity was given the advocates of the measure to make a test case of it the whole bunch had a case of "cold feet" and took to the woods as fast as their legs could carry them. It is now proposed to do away with the majority business in a block and let things work out to the satisfaction of the remaining ones, white or black. What a time our white friends are having keeping themselves "unspotted from the world," of black folks.—Afro-American Ledger.
The Colquit administration is coming in for a deal of friendly comment from the white newspapers on account of the excellence of appointments up to now announced, all of which is very well; for as a matter of fact, most of the appointments have gone to worthy and deserving men. But when it is considered that there are between 600,000 and 800,000 colored people in the state, thousands of whom are good citizens, the question will naturally arise as to why none of them are even mentioned for a place. Has it come to pass that in Texas, the Negro is only fit to bear the burden of the government?—Dallas Express.
Negro Voters Would Like to Know
If Negro policemen in uniform and Negro fire companies are not offensive to white citizens in states like Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana, why should they not be acceptance in St. Louis? Can the Republican party in St. Louis answer this question? Negroes are not asking this question through idle curiosity, but because they feel that the tremendous majority of recent elections which have shown so plainly on the right side of Republican ledgers, were in a great measure due to the solid Negro republican vote — Central Afro-American.

ANNUAL DINNER.

tion, making such music as only the employees of the Baptist Publishing Board can make when singing their own songs. Mr. Kelly, in a neat speech, presented Dr. Boyd with a beautiful silk umbrella, of the latest design, one that can be separated into parts small enough to go into a suit case. Mr. Kelly also stated that it represented the esteem in which the Secretary was held by the employees. He said that it was not the intrinsic value that he desired that it be kept, but the spirit in which it was given. In his closing remarks he told of the worth and importance of the composing room to the Publishing House.
Dr. Boyd made a beautiful response, giving for the first time a full history of why he enjoyed and kept up these annual dinners. He said that when he first came to Nashville, friendless and apparently penniless, he was the object of much ridicule,
but that he had a purpose in view, and that it was on December 31, 1896, that he received a box of edibles which had been sent to him by his wife and children, who were then residing at San Antonio, Tex. Upon opening the box he found that it did not contain dry light bread and sausage, but instead it was a nice box of well-cooked food. He invited his three assistants to dine with him and while they were preparing to accept his invitation, he promised the Lord to continue the celebration, regardless of the size of the institution or the number of employees. After his remarks the employees dispersed to their various homes the remainder of the day being observed as a holiday.

PRESIDENT BUCHANAN DELIVERS EMANCIPATION ADDRESS AT MONTGOMERY.
Special to the Globe.
Montgomery, Ala., January 3. In the course of his Emancipation Day address to a large audience at the State Normal School yesterday Walter S. Buchanan, President of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes at Normal, Ala., said:
"Any effort to point out and praise the men who have helped to direct the current of Negro progress into safe and sane channels, the men who have made possible all this progress in wealth, education and Christianity of which the Negro boasts, would be incomplete, misleading and unfair did it not give due credit to that great host of valiant Confederate soldiers, who, as they stacked their arms at Appomattox court house to study war no more, put away all opposition to those policies which the results of the war unhield, and, returning to their wrecked and ruined homes, took up the broken thread of civil life, and, feeling in a wise, courageous and Christian way the stupendous and rivaled task of establishing a status for the vast body of their liberated slaves, kindly took the freedman by the hand and sought patiently to lead him into paths of usefulness, morality and peace. It is to be regretted that we were not more willing to follow these men who know us from the ground up and were honestly anxious to help us, and at whose final direction all our great problems are to be solved. Every Negro knows at least one such friend who, in the time of need has been his reliable counsellor and benefactor. The world at large will never know of many of them for their modest lives and unostentatious charity are too commonplace for public print, but we know, and they know, and God knows how much they have done to make our freedom real and genuine and our progress sure and right. May their kind be multiplied all through the Southland and may we have the good sense to hear them."

Among the chief social events of the Xmas season was the culmination of a love romance in the marriage of Mr. Samuel Henry Rhodes to Miss Celia Madeline Hendley, which was solemnized on Wednesday evening, December 28, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Rhodes.
The spacious parlors of the well appointed Rhodes home were profusely decorated with ferns and Christmas greens, and immediately in the entrance between the reception hall and parlor was suspended an artistic white wedding bell tinseled with gold caught up with satin streamers, under which the couple stood while Dr. W. Sampson Brooks performed the impressive ceremony. The color scheme evident was white and green.
Promptly at 6:45 Miss N. Eva Murrell sounded the famous Mendelssohn wedding march and the groom led the way attended by Mr. E. Lee Kinser and the bride followed leaning upon the arm of the maid of honor, Miss Lelia L. Dillahunty. The bride was beautifully attired in an all over embroidered silk chiffon and orange blossoms wreathed her hair and she carried a bouquet of white carnations and ferns tied with white satin ribbon. The maid of honor was beautifully gowned in white lingerte trimmed in valencienne lace with a pink sash and carried white carnations and ferns. The groom was handsomely attired in a black business suit and the best man was similarly attired.
Immediately after the ceremony an ice-course was served to the guests. The presents were quite numerous and costly, which attest the popular esteem of the young couple. They will reside at 1203 Tenth avenue, 'South.

Nashville has been the scene this winter of several brilliant weddings. Among the beautifully planned ones was that of Miss Alphio M.

The rooms of the home were elaborately decorated with different kinds of flowers. The ceremony was performed in the front parlor, where a beautiful drapery of pink and white was attached to the center of the ceiling, forming an altar. The wedding march was played and the bridal party came in. Rev. Howard, of St. John Church, officiated. The bride, who deserves the enjoyed reputation of being one of Nashville's popular young woman and also handsomest, was unusually so Thursday in her sky blue gown of silk, her blue marquisette blouse was trimmed in heavy lace. The flowers the bride
cried was a bouquet of carnations and fern leaves. Miss Fannie P. Austin, who was the maid of honor, wore a beautiful gown of white embroidery and carried a large bouquet of carnations. Miss Georgia Laws was the bride's maid; she was gowned in a gown of pretty blue China silk. Mr. Robert J. Sherrell, Jr., was the
best man. Mr. Titus Leak and Mr. Caters were the groomsmen. Following the ceremony was a reception to the one hundred guests. The dining-room was very prettily decorated. Those seated at the table with the bride and groom were Misses Fannie P. Austin, George L. Laws, May Julia Wright, Messrs. Robert J. Sherrell, Jr., Titus Leak, Caters and Rev.

APPOINTED.
Mrs. Laura P. Allen, Assistant Principal of Knowles School.
capital of Knowles School.
Mrs. Laura Watson Allen, formerly organist of the first floor of Hadley School, has been appointed assistant principal of Knowles School. Superintendent J. J. Keyes, in making the assignment, displayed very fine discernment of the fitness and executive capacity among his corps of city teachers. Mrs. Allen is a fine scholar and noted educator. She attained her English education in the public schools of Nashville and her college training in Walden University. She comes from a family of educators. Her brother, Dr. J. Ira Watson, is at present principal of Belle View School, Nashville, and a deceased brother, Prof. Chas. M. Watson, was for many years prior to his death principal of the Clarksville public school. Thus it seems to run in the family to gravitate to principalship. It goes without saying that success will follow Mrs. Allen in her promotion to such a responsible position in the Nashville publis school system.
THE GEORGE W. HUBDARD HOSPITAL CLUB.
On account of the death of Mrs. J. H. Hale's father, the club had no meeting. We wish, however, to express our sincere thanks to the public for the splendid audience at the recital of Miss Burton. As has been customary with every entertainment given by the club, Miss Burton's recital was a decided success from an artistic standpoint and it is hoped of the club that she will come to us again.
