NASHVILLE GLOBE. COMMITTEE PREPARING FOR RECORD-BREAKING CROWD— AMUSEMENTS GALORE—BASEBALL MORNING AND EVENING —STUDENTS ALIVE AND ACTIVELY AT WORK — ALUMNI AND FRIENDS COMING TO THE RESCUE. At the October, 1910, meeting of the Board of Trustees of Fisk University, it was voted to inaugurate a campaign for the raising of not less than $300,000. It was afterwards agreed to fix the amount to be asked for at $500,000. The fund to be applied as follows: $50,000 for repairing and refitting buildings, liquidating outstanding notes and other indebtness. The older buildings are very much worn and greatly in need of modern conveniences. $50,000 for the installation of a steam heating, lighting and laundry plant to replace the present worn-out and antiquated system. It would save the university between three and five thousand dollars annually in fuel and wages. $400,000 for endowment, to care for the present substantial buildings, pay teachers' salaries and permit natural growth. Board of Trustees—Charles A. Hull, Chairman; Harvey L. Simmons, Treasurer, (In charge of Endowment); Augustus F. Beard, Paul D. Cravath, George A. Gates, Robert J. Cross, James G. Merrill, George W. Moore, Charles H. Rutan, Charles J. Ryder, Booker T. Washington. The General - Education Board has appropriated $60,000 conditionally to this fund. Three individuals have subscribed $10,000 each and two $5,000 each. There is now pledged about $110,000. In the accomplishment of its great mission Fisk University needs the sympathy and generous financial aid of all. The colored citizens are planning for a big rally on June 3, to be held at Greenwood Park, and the zest with which those in charge have entered into the work and the general interest manifested indicates that a handsome amount will be realized. The entertainment has been designated Field Day. The managers have adopted the following motto: Sell ten thousand tickets for June 3rd. Will you be one to help? And won't you get another to help you? And you and the other one, can get another one, and you three, can add on to your number, until none will be left not of the Fisk Band. And you see how easy it will be for us to sell ten thousand tickets. Help to grow, it has helped you and the race in a needy time; and it is a poor preacher who forgets his friends. Never, was there anything like it before in Nashville, the whole population is aroused, as never before; each one trying to outdo the other. Who can sell the greatest number of tickets? A number of persons have taken a thousand tickets to sell. Will they sell them? Well, they are making the effort, and that is better than the "feller" who does not try. Meet me at Greenwood Saturday, June 3rd, and the meeting will be profitable, if only you drink that good, cold spring water and ride on the Merry-Go-Round. Have you seen the improvements in Greenwood Park? Three springs running into one reservoir, and a gasoline engine pumping the water up into a large tank; then the water is carried all over the Park in iron pines under the ground. The grandstand, has been rebuilt, and it adds much to the comfort of the people. The arbor, with its broad walks and seats catches everybody's eye. The fountain, with its mammoth basin of water, and its beautiful spray, with the golden fish playing around in its bath of love. Don't forget to see the Zoo in Greenwood Park, and look for the eagles; you have never seen a finer air anywhere. Greenwood, can boast of the first iceless soda fountain, owned by our people in Nashville. It is a beauty, and when you drink from it, you will say "delightful." Have you seen the hand bills? Don't fail to read the program; and if you like it, tell others about it. Come and se Fisk, in debt, up to her, ask no questions, but buy tickets for the great entertainment. How many tickets, please? See Fisk, and its great entertainment advertised in all of the daily papers, on the cars, in the cars, and on everybody's lips. Let everybody say Fisk, to every body. Will all the ministers make announcements all day Sunday? Go themselves and carry all of their congregations to help Fisk, June 3rd. Our public school teachers are at work like beavers, and they will surely bring their schools. Don't stop at buying one ticket, but keep them on the go; they are so cheap that you can afford to hand them around to your friends for souvenirs. There are about forty thousand colored people in the city, and every one of them will be asked to buy a ticket to help Fisk June 3rd. Forty thousand ten cent pieces would help out much. Don't you miss this opportunity; buy a ticket, if you do not go. It is a great undertaking, but so many are helping; it is but little for each of us. Are you one of us? The students who are enjoying the opportunities afforded them by Fisk are also alive to the needs of the institution. (The following is the letter used by the students of Fisk, the "Student Rally to raise at least $500.00 by Commencement Day.") My Dear Friend: You will see by the inclosed circular that Fisk is in the midst of a great campaign to save and conserve our great institution. The members of our Trustee Board and Faculty, who have been trying to raise money among white people in the North and here in Nashville, have met the questions: "What will the Colored people do for Fisk University? How much do they believe in higher education for Negroes?" The Colored people of Nashville have organized a campaign to raise Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) to show them what they think about higher education and what they will do for its maintenance. (Continued on Page 4.) PEARL HIGH GRADUATES, 1911. Last Friday evening, May 19th, the 1911 graduating class of Pearl High School gave their most successful class social at the residence of Prof. and Mrs. Batte, 805 Stevenson avenue. The house was beautifully decorated with cherry and white. Dancing and games were the features of the evening. At a late hour a tasty four-course menu was served. This class will be one of the largest classes in years, as each one is striving with utmost will to complete his course. The honorable officers of this class are: Ernest E. Waddy, president; Estizer R. Watson, secretary; Leon B. Hurt, treasurer. BANQUET AT TRINITY CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH. Mrs. Fannie Hamilton, the general of the Spanish side of the club at Trinity Chapel A. M. E. Church gave a banquet last Wednesday evening. A four-course menu, was served. The Spanish and their friends who assisted in the rally were entertained in this rally. Seventy-five dollars and seventy-two cents was raised. The leaders of the different clubs were Miss Lelia Goodman, Mesdames Hamilton, Linton, Johnson and Goodman, Rev. Adams, the pastor of the church, was master of ceremonies; G. A. R. SERMON. The Grand Army of the Republic and Woman's Relief Corps, accompanied by Company G., commanded by Captain Henry Bowman, will have their regular thanksgiving sermon at Greenwood Park, Sunday, May 28th, at 3 o'clock, and will go to Greenwood Cemetery and decorate all of the graves of the old comrades, including those of Company G. The public is invited to be present. MORE NONEY FOR NEGRO SCHOOL State N. and A. College in Line. PEABODY FUND TO BE DIVIDED IT IS SAID OVER $100,000 WOULD COME TO NEGROES — NASHVILLE THE LOGICAL SPOT — COULD BE MERGED WITH STATE NORMAL—PHILANTHROPIC AMERICAN'S DEEDS LOOM UP—INVESTIGATIONS OPENING UP GOOD THINGS FOR THE NEGROES. If the division of the Peabody Fund is made according to the plan that was announced several weeks ago, and if a proportionate share according to the Negro's population is made to the deserving youth, more than one hundred thousand dollars will be set aside for the Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical College that is located out on Centennial Avenue. It has been found, after some investigation, that the money for the Peabody Normal School, such as has been used from time to time for that school, where only whites attend, should have been divided in proportion to the population wherever the schools were separate, between the Negroes and whites, but since there was no distinctly Negro school until recently, it is supposed that this accounts for the failure to divide the fund. A despatch recently appeared in the Memphis Schmitar to the effect that an agreement had been reached and that when a division of the fund, which was be queathed to the "deserving youth of the south," is made so that the proposed Peabody Normal might not account any breakers in the future, something over one hundred thousand dollars would be given to the Negroes. The discussion of this Peabody paper continually through the papers has brought to light the notable Slatter fund, which is another evidence of the philanthropic spirit shown by true Americans, who look to the future of the youth of the Sunny South. It could not be learned this week whether the three men of the faculty of the school were giving any attention to these resorted rumors concerning the division of the fund, but it was supposed that the Superintendent of the State Board of Education, or the Board itself, would look well into the securing of whatever monies that belonged to this school, all of which could be used to a great advantage in the coming educational effort. With the already one hundred and fifty thousand added to the one hundred thousand or more that would come from the Peabody fund and the few thousand of dollars that is due from the Morrill fund, the Agricultural, Normal and Mechanical School for Negroes will have over three hundred thousand dollars to begin its career and to take its place among the educational institutions of Tennessee. This is a sufficient amount to put the young institution at the head of its class in so far as equipment of buildings is concerned. No school in Tennessee will have more backing and there are but few agricultural institutions in the South that have more land already in their possession, and none with a better location than the site already selected on Centennial avenue. The administration building is by actual measurement on an elevation within ten feet of that occupied by the State Capitol. When the buildings are erected, they will, like the Capitol of Tennessee, be the only buildings to be seen from every point in Nashville. INFORMAL BRIDGE. Mr. and Mrs. Otis Gordon beautifully entertained at bridge at their home, 913 1-2 Shankland street in honor of their visiting friends, Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Brown, of Chicago, Ill. Music and games were features of the evening. At a late hour the guests were ushered into the dining- room, where an elaborate menu was served. The table was covered with Mexican damesk and had for its centerpiece a Battenberg scarf on which stood a brass jardiniere filled with maidenhair ferns. Those who enjoyed the occasion were Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Brown of Chicago, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Major, Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Armstrong, Mrs. C. E. Deshazer, Misses Shiley Bass, Fannie Belle Thompson, Messrs Wm. Collins, Lee Boyd, John B. Sims, Charles H. Reed, James A. Moore, Gwin Harris, Scott Armstrong. The highest scores were won by Mr. T. L. Armstrong and Mrs. Wm. Majors. The scores THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT, STATE UNIVERSITY. Special to the Globe. Louisville, Ky., May 19.—The Thirty-second Annual Commencement of State University, Louisville, Ky., was held at Macauley Theatre Thursday evening, May 18, 1911. The large an appreciative audience which assembled, among whom were parents of the graduates from different parts of of the state, was an inspiring expression of the respect and good-will which they had for the institution which was established many years ago for the people. On the platform were many representative men, the faculty of State University occupying the front seats. In the center of the stage sat President Amiger with Dr. F. G. Fowler at his right, Dr. Robt. Mitchell, the Moderator of the General Association of Colored Baptist of Kentucky on his left. FISK ALUMNI RALLY. In the effort being made by Rev. Preston Taylor and his committee, composed of Dr. F. A. Stewart, chairman, Dr. R. F. Boyd, Hon. J. W. Grant, Mr. Ben Carr, Dr. H. T. Noel and other leading colored citizens, who are responding to the call of President Geo. A. Gates, for more financial aid from the colored people in the plan to raise the $500,000 endowment for Fisk, the alumni are taking an active part in the Carnival to be held at Greenwood Park, June 3, 1911. The most active and loyal graduates of Fisk are enthusiastic over the prospects for a successful day at Greenwood park on June 3rd. Rev. Preston Taylor and his good wife, who was a member of the first club of Jubilee Songers send out to gather funds for Fisk, have interested themselves to the extent that a gala day has been planned at Greenwood Park on Fisk Benefit Day. It is to be a day replete with musical, athletic and other festivities. An excellent program has been arranged to begin at 10 o'clock. There will be fire works and a horse show at night, under the auspices of the Tennessee Breeder's and Driver's Association, with Dr. H. T. Noel as president. All the proceeds of the day will be contributed to the Fisk Endowment Fund, and fully -3,000 is expected to be raised. There will be a spectacular marathon race from Jubilee Hall at Fisk to the grandstand at Greenwood park. This particular feature will be promoted by the Fisk Alumni, who are contributing to the money prizes offered to the couriers. A call has been issued to all active, faithful, loyal graduates of Fisk to meet Monday afternoon in the Directors' room of the People's Savings Bank and Trust Co., at 5 p. m., to work out the details of the Fisk graduates contribution to the Festival being given by Rev. Preston Taylor and other citizens interesting themselves in the Fisk Endowment Fund. Mr. T. Clay Moore, the president of the College Alumni, will preside at the meeting. Dr. F. A.

No.21 INDICATIONS POINT TO GREAT GATHERING PEOPLE OF ARKANSAS METROPOLIS GETTING READY TO ENTERTAIN THE DELEGATES—HON. BUSH, A PROMINENT FIGURE IN EVERY MOVEMENT MEETING GROWING IN IMPORTANCE EVERY YEAR—GOVERNOR AND PEOPLE UNITED. The National Negro Business League will hold its Twelfth Annual Meeting at Little Rock, Arkansas, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, August 16th, 17th and 18th, 1911. Governor George W. Donaghey, of Arkansas, is manifesting great interest in this coming meeting, and has assured the Local League of his entire willingness to do everything possible toward making the meeting a success. Governor Donaghey, the Little Rock Chamber of Commerce, and the leading white citizens of Little Rock joined with the local League in inviting the National organization to that city. The citizens have already begun making preparations for this meeting. The annual meeting of the National Negro Business League are yearly increasing in value and helpfulness to the race. They bring progressive colored men and women together from all sections of the country and afford a chance for them to become acquainted and exchange ideas with each other. Moreover, the deliberations of the members of other races are afforded to learn of what the Negro is doing for himself, are helpful in the doing for himself, are helpful in the highest degree. Lastly, the annual vacation which every person takes can be made both inexpensive, delightful and profitable by attendance at these meetings. Hon. J. E. Bush, a member of the Executive Committee of the National organization is the leading spirit in all of the activities now being made for the coming meeting, and especially anxious to have the members of the League present in large numbers. He says: "It is no further from New York to Little Rock than it is from Little Rock to New York, and Arkansas has always been represented in every meeting of the National organization." Mr. Bush assures the Northern members that the progress which the colored people of Arkansas have made will fully warrant their coming South in large numbers. The railroads have already consented to make an attractive rate for this meeting, and delegates are especially urged to give attention to the matter of arranging for Pullman or tourist car parties. Further information will be furnished regarding this feature within the next week or ten days. MEHARRY FACULTY MEETS. At a meeting of a majority of the members of the faculty of the Meharry Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Colleges, held at the office of Dean Hubbard on Monday, over $785 was subscribed as an entering wedge on raising the ten thousand dollars as the school's part of the twenty thousand to be raised for the completion of the remaining two wings of the Hubbard Hospital. It is the plan of the faculty to raise among themselves the first one thousand dollars. It was said that had not ten members of the faculty been absent, over one thousand dollars would have been subscribed, as they came within $215 of subscribing this first one thousand. The meeting was the most enthusiastic ever held in the city to foster educational work, made so on account of Mr. Carnegie's generous offer to give ten thousand dollars. Dr. Hubbard has just returned to the city from an extended trip through West Tennessee and Arkansas, and while away he made it known that the plans of the alumni this year would include the erecting of these two wings.

Last Sunday, in keeping with the plan that had already been laid by the various denominations, was an epoch making per'nd in Nashville. Responding to the call made, Come to Sunday-school, yet within the walls and be counted, men and boys of the city, identified with the race, made one strong, steady pull to pay their respects to the greatest depart. ment: of the church—the Sunday! school. They came from all of the families; they represented every walk of life in the city; they sat and listened to the simple gospel as it was taught to the little ones; they put into execution Tennyson's poem, “Backward, turn backward, O Time in thy filght,” they were all made children once, just for Sunday. The ‘records will show that more than the number that the call was made for crowded the various Sunday-school auditoriums, There are more than seventy-five churches in this city, and not one of them had less than fifty male members in them Sunday morning. In some instances the average was between eighty and one hundred. ‘While the official returns are not yet completed, enough figures yhave been turned in to show that ‘more than five thousand men and ‘boys were within the sacred walls of some church between the hours of 9:30 and 11 o'clock. The largest number so far 1s from the Mt, Olive Baptist Sunday-School. ‘They report a total of 109 male members of the ‘race, In oné class alone, class No. 14, known as the Metoka, or Young ‘Men's: Bible Class, taught by Deacon James Martin, fifty men were pres- ent. ‘EXCURSION RATES TO MERIDIAN, Miss.

HENRY ALLEN BOYD, Secretary of the Sunday-School’ Congress, SOMERVILLE NOTES. Dr. L. H. Johnson, of Red Bird, Oklahoma, was a welcome visitor of our town last week. The doctor reports very pleasingly of his situation there, which was received by his many friends here. Joyfully we wish him much success in his new field. Rev. D W. Jones, former pastor of Mt. Zlon, who now resides in Binghamton, preached the funeral of the late George Henderson here Sunday evening, May 21. It has been a long time in the history of this church since there was such a crowd as was witnessed there Sunday. Mr. Henderson was a member of Mt Zion Baptist Church for a good many years and served in the capacity of deacon for some length of time. Hence as a good Christian gentleman he had many friends; he was also a member of Seventh Star Lodge, No. 47, K. of P. Rev. Jones also preached the anniversary sermon of the Eastern Star which was very impressive to his audience Sunday night. Mrs Rushle Murphy, of Lavonia, spent a few days last week with Mr. and Mrs. George Tillman. We were all glad to have Mrs. Murphy with us who is always so pleasant and entertaining. We are very sorry to hear that Mr. Trusty Glass is on the sick list this week. We hope him a speedy recovery. Miss Virginia Murphy is now the guest of Mr. and Mrs. George Tillman. We learn that she will be with us sometime. We welcome her here. Sir. N. N. Reynold, G. L. O. O. C., K. of P., was with us Monday and Monday night in the interest of the order here. FRANKLIN NOTES On account of the rain last Sunday the meeting at the Cemetery failed to be largely attended although a large number of flowers were carried to the cemetery during the afternoon. Mrs. Bradley Johnson is very sick. Misses Mamie D. Halfacre and Effie M Gosey were the guests of Mrs. J. T. Patton last Saturday and Sunday. Mr. H. J. Ewing was in Nashville last week. The Primitive Baptist church of Franklin will have their annual foot-washing Sunday, May 28. A very large crowd is expected. Miss Malinda A. Patton is at home to spend a part of the summer. Miss Patton has spent a successful year in Roger Williams University. Messrs J. D. Farmer and Arthur Shelburn will leave for Louisville, Ky., in a few days, where they will spend the summer. Mr. T. A. Williams has a ten day sale on things are going cheap. Rev. Dr. Stevens, of Columbia, preached a soul-stirring sermon at the M E. Church last Sunday morning. A large audience was present. Rev. R. B. Ross will preach in Columbia next Sunday night for Rev. Dr. Stevens. Mr. J. L. Park departed this life last Sunday night. Mr Park has been cashier of the National Bank of Franklin. He was very loyal to the colored people of Franklin. The Canarian Art Club met with Miss Jessie Kinnard Wednesday. The meeting was opened with song and prayer, after which Miss Mattie Pinnard, of Nashville, expressed her appreciation to meet so many of the club members. The rooms were beautifully decorated. A delightful three-course menu was served. The next meeting will be with Miss Matie Neely, on Baugh street. Mrs Amanda Neely has been very ill, but is imprising now. Mrs Minnie John son is still seriously ill. M. & F. COLLEGE BACCALAURE ATE SERMON. The anniversary sermon of the M. & F. College, of Hopkinsville, Ky., was delivered at the Tabernacle Church of that city on Sunday at 3 o'clock by Rev. Dr. C. H. Clark, who has delivered this baccalaureate sermon during the commencement exercises at this school for the past ten or twelve years. Being a native son of the Blue Grass State and having pastored in Hopkinsville for a number of years, it seems they are unable to select any one more satisfactory and suitable to them than Nashville's leading Baptist div. Over five thousand people filled the auditorium of the Tabernacle Church to hear his discussion. Every church in the city, irrespective of denomination, suspending its service out of respect for the school and the speaker of the occasion. The inclement weather of the foremen did not effect the enthusiasm of the people. Aside from the sermon, Sunday was a special rally day. Both the exercises and the financial efforts were a success from every point of view. Prof. Frazier, principal of the school, together with the faculty, is putting forth continual efforts to better the condition of the school, which is fostered in that part of the state by several associations, and which has for the past few years been reported as one of the coming Institutions of learning of Kentucky ONE SERMON IN HE CHAPEL. According to a letter received this week from Mr. L. C. Moore, president of the State B. Y. P. U. Convention, written from Memphis, that body NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 26, 1911. A LITTLE DOWN ON A BIG BILL 305-307 BROADWAY Phone M in 5 will hold, jointly with the State Sunday-School Convention, of Tennessee, one of its sessions in the chapel of the National Baptist Publishing House. Mr. Moore states that the invitation, which was extended by Dr. Boyd, of this city, to hold one of his sessions, was put before the Executive Board. The Board unanimously accepted the invitation. The meeting will be held Thursday, June 29th, at 2:30 o'clock. Special notice is to be sent out to the members throughout the state, urging them not to fail to show their appreciation. Dr. Boyd and his forces, it is learned, will, after the adjournment of the meeting, entertain the entire body, but the plans for entertainment have not been given out. DR. TOWNSEND'S ANNIVERSARY. With a suitable service in keeping with the occasion, attended by distinguished divines from out of the city and from sister churches, Rev. T. J. Townsend, D. D., pastor of the Spruce Street Baptist Church, celebrated his fifth anniversary Sunday. Spruce Street is one of the oldest Baptist churches in Tennessee. It has not yet been settled definitely among the Baptists themselves whether the Spruce Street Church or the Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, of Columbia, was the first organized in Tennessee. The pastorate of the Spruce Street is, therefore, looked upon by the people of the city as one of great importance. There was a time when Nashville's leading citizens had their membership at the mother church. Hundreds of them now point with pride to the fact that their names have never been erased from the church roll. On Sunday morning, beginning with the Sunday-school service, the exercises began the anniversary. It was continued throughout eleven o'clock, the afternoon and night, notwithstanding in the afternoon the rain came down in torrents, the faithful were there and the occasion was a memorable one. DR. LEWIS RETURNS FROM THE EAST. Dr. W. A. Lewis, Secretary of the Preacher's Aid department of the African Methodist Church has just returned from the East where he has been visiting Conferences. Dr. Lewis went on a mission most commendable. He is making a special appeal to his church to do more for the worn-out preachers of the Connection. In a circular issued recently the Secretary puts the question square up to the Church. The circular says in part: Three years as Secretary of the Preachers Aid Department, his given me an excellent opportunity to study the condition of our ministers. The meager salaries many of them receive, the pittance given them upon their superannuation, after having spent their lives saving souls, building churches and paying church debts, and worst of all, the suffering of their families after their death make it absolutely imperative that something be done. When a minister becomes too old to preach he is too old to work for a living. The government provides for those who serve it, also fraternal organizations. Railroads pension their aged employees, and, in fact, all large companies are doing so. The Church, God's institution on earth, should and must look after and care for her servants, who have spent and sacrificed their lives for the spread of the gospel of Christ. The preachers make the laws. They make all the laws in the church, collect all moneys, and say how it shall be expended. So the preachers are to blame if they do not look after their interest and through their representatives in the General Conference enact measures whereby they can prepare for themselves when they are old and decrepit. If THE BALANCE A LITTLE AT A TIME Our Stoves and Ranges are guaranteed. Your old Stove gets one. The balance to suit your income.

FRIDAY, MAY 26, 1911. Self Help. The question is being asked in the North and in the South, when appeals are made for aid for Negro colleges and universities. What is the Negro doing for himself? Nearly fifty years since the shackles of slavery were loosed from him, and without a doubt he has made wonderful progress. He boasts of having acquired some of this world's goods; here and there an individual is pointed to who is rated to be worth fifty or a hundred thousand dollars, and it is a common thing to find a Negro who is reputed to be worth from ten to twenty-five thousand dollars. Statistics are constantly being collected setting forth the wealth of the Negroes of this country, and there is no reason to be ashamed of what has been achieved, and in the face of all this the white people North and South, who have been giving to the education of the Negro people ask the question. What are the Negroes doing for themselves along educational lines? In Fisk University's case this same question is being asked. First, the white man North wants to know what the white man South is doing for Fisk, and second the white man South wants to know what the Negroes are doing for Fisk. So in its final analysis, the destiny of this great institution is in the hands of the Negroes of Nashville. The appeal that is being made by President Gates is not to alarm anybody. It is a cold business proposition. As a race we say we must have higher education, and if we are to attain to the highest civilization we must have it. Our preachers, teachers, doctors, lawyers and our leading men who are to measure arms with the thinkers of the day must be thoroughly prepared to do so. It needs be that we must have institutions of learning like Fisk. Then, if we must have them it is our duty to contribute to their support to the full extent of our ability. Saturday, the 3rd of June, Mr. Preston Taylor, the owner of Greenwood Park, is planning to have an entertainment in this pleasure resort for the benefit of Fisk. All of the proceeds from the carnival will go to that institution. Mayor Howse will issue a proclamation asking that the colored people in service be given a holiday that they may attend the carnival and contribute in that way each one a little mite toward this great cause, but this entertainment is not what is meant by the question asked. Self help as we understand it means that a man earns a dollar by the sweat of his brow and then takes that dollar and spends it for his own needs and those dependent upon him. When the white people of this city ask what will the Negroes of Nashville do for Fisk they do not mean how much will they raise by giving an entertainment, for that is not giving in the true sense of the word. The world wants to see how many of the Negroes who NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 26, 1911. are able to give a thousand dollars will give that amount without attaching any ifs to it, and the man who is able to give five hundred dollars will give that amount without requiring that so many and so many other men do the same. The question is put square up to us. If we want an institution for higher education, let us prove it by giving to the extent of our ability. If the Negroes of Nashville will do this Fisk University will remain. If they will not do this then they say to the world "we do not see any need for higher education for our children, and our friends will endeavor to give us what we want. As we help ourselves, so will we be helped. Men of Courage Needed. On last Sunday a colored girl on a Jefferson street car took a seat by a white man who refused to move to a seat in the front of the car. The white man struck the girl and called her a vile name. It is said several objects that were supposed to be Negro men saw the whole transaction and never uttered a word. The girl did not act wisely but she was a girl, a child in short clothes, and had she been white no matter who the man was, whether he was white or black, every white man would have split his last drop of blood to protect her from such an cutrage. Negro men, in the name of high heaven be men; be courageous men. Our women will never be respected until we conclude to lay down our lives in their defense whether they are right or whether they are wrong. Hon. W. T. Vernon's name has been mentioned as a successor to minister to Haiti Furniss. We pull for Mr. Vernon once and for all times. No better selection can be made. He is thoroughly competent and is universally acceptable. Gov. Wilson and Speaker Clark are beaten now for President of the United States, for no democrat can be president without the Negro support. It will take a Harmon-izer to turn the trick. --- (Continued from Page 1.) We students have organized a "Student Rally" for the Endowment Fund and every student is undertaking to raise among his friends at least Two Dollars ($2,00) between now and June 10. I am, therefore writing to ask if you will help me? Any amount you can give will be greatly appreciated by me and the University. You may send Post Office Money Order, check or cash, addressed to Fisk University, Nashville, Tennessee, or to me. In every case a receipt from the University will be returned to you for whatever amount you give. Please accept thanks in advance both for your interest and good will and for any amount you may send.
