NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. COMMENCEMENT AT FISK UNI. CLOSES WITH ADDRESS DR. CHAS. E. STOWE Eminent Divine Discusses Civil War. LARGE NUMBER OF GRADUATES IN ALL DEPARTMENTS—FIFTY-FIVE YOUNG PEOPLE RECEIVE DIPLOMAS FROM COLLEGE, NORMAL AND MUSIC DEPARTMENTS — ALUMNI MEETING LARGELY ATTENDED — SPIRIT OF SELF-HELP FOR FISK BY HER GRADUATES EVIDENT. Basing his address on the Scriptural quotation "All ye are brethren," Dr. Chas. E. Stowe, of New York, the youngest son of the late Harriet Beecher Stowe, threw light on the struggle of 1861. The address was delivered Wednesday morning at the commencement exercises in Fisk Memorial Chapel. Dr. Stowe in his address discussed at length the south before the war and the slavery problem, his deductions and observations being considered eminently fair by the Confederate veterans who heard him. Dr. Cave, in his remarks, said that he regarded the address just given a clear presentation of the south's position as being reasonable and right. He expressed his pleasure at hearing from the son of the author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" such a fair presentation, and with such justness to the south of the civil war and the events which led up to it. The exercises began Sunday, when Dr. Gates, President of the university, delivered the baccalaureate sermon. Senior Class Day exercises were held Monday afternoon. The welcome address was delivered by Florence M. Ward, class history by Bessie L. Williamson; class will by Ethol Grant Cox, class prehepacy by Bessie C. Rucker, class statistics by Helen M. Murray, tree oration by Inez Celeste Higgins, class song, words by Patti Cashin, music by Bessie L. Williamson, and class poem by Nettie B. Hancock. At 3:30 p. m. the anniversary of the Alumni Associations was held, it being the thirtieth of the college and the twenty-sixth of the normal. Business meetings were held in the parlors of Jubilee Hall. Monday night addresses were heard at a public meeting, the principal one being delivered by Clinton J. Calloway, class '95, who discussed "Some Opportunities for College Men and Women for Improving Southern Conditions." Thomas Clay Moore, '06, is President of the College Alumni Association and Mrs. Lelia Haynie Carr, '98, of the Normal Alumni Association. The alumni chapel exercises were held in Livingston Hall Tuesday morning and an interesting program was carried out. The College Class Day exercises were held Tuesday afternoon. The officers of the class are: President, J. H. Robinson; Vice-President, Marguerite Parks; Secretary, Frances E. Caldwell; Treasurer, J. S. Bravoy. Dr. Stowe's address was the chief feature of his year's commencement, as he is well known for his broad insight into the cause of the civil war. His address on "Our Country and What It Should Mean to Us," was one of the most forceful and intelligent expressions of the whole matter that has been made in an address in Nashville in many years. At its conclusion Dr. R. Lin Cave, chaplain of the United Confederate Veterans, spoke a few words in which he heartily agreed with the speaker. Dr. Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, and Hon. J. C. Napler, register of the United States treasury, were present, and occupied seats on the platform. Dr. Stowe in his baccalaureate address, said in part: "Abrahman Lincoln, in the celebrated Gettysburg address, spoke of our nation as conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition, 'All men are created equal.' This is the great, vague, central, germinant idea which lies at the very heart of our NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1911. national institutions. The fathers of our republic, who propounded this great principle, were neither Utopians nor socialists, but men of profound political wisdom, acting under a noble sense of political responsibility. They did not mean to obliterate the past, nor to abolish human nature. They simply mean to declare in short, that in our nation there should be a fair chance for every man to develop the best that there is in him, irrespective of race, color or nationality. The idea was new and untried, and if tried at all it must of necessity be in a new country. It was an experiment; it was not anything that could be realized at once, but must be the slow growth of ages. NORTH SHARED RESPONSIBILITY. "This much must be conceded, that the northern states were just as responsible for the existence of slavery as were the southern states, and that slavery ceased to exist in the northern states because it was for them an economic failure, and it grew strong in the southern states after the invention of Eli Whitney's cotton tin, simply because it was enormously profitable, and property and slaves correspondingly valuable. As a result, the two sections of the country grew up on two utterly irreconcilable and hopelessly antagonistic economic basis, that of slave and free labor. "The north, with free labor, was in harmony with the most enlightened intelligence of the age as to slavery, and advanced rapidly toward a conception of a national democratic republic in which the individual should be the unit, while the south, holding to the institution of slavery when it had become an anachronism, and the whole enlightened intelligence of the world was armed against it, was put upon the defensive, shut up within itself, and was as hopelessly isolated from the rest of the world as is China to-day. "Now, as slaves were property, according to law, any attack upon this form of property was an attack indirectly upon all forms of property, and an attack also upon the constitution of the United States. In the minds, therefore, of pious, church-going, orthodox slaveholders, and many such there were, the abolitionists of the north were looked upon as we today regard the bomb-throwing anarchists of Chicago or the most radical wing of the socialist party, as the enemies of society and the enemies of God and his holy word, the Bible, in which the plious slaveholder of the south found abundant authority for his beloved institution. "So, along these two points, the conflict raged, and slavery, when it was attacked, entrenched itself more and more within the doctrine of states' rights, so that at the last the two became identical, and to attack one was to attack the other; to defend one was to defend the other. Consequently, when it came to the outbreak of the civil war, many patriotic southern men who cared little or nothing about slavery were stirred with the deepest indignation at the suggestion of the national government subduing a sovereign state by force of arms, and said that a union that could only be held together by bayonets had better be dissolved, and for the principle of state rights and state sovereignty, the southern men fought with a holy ardor and self-denying patriotism that have covered even defeat with imperishable glory. "And let us look at the matter from the southern standpoint. The party that elected Abraham Lincoln was a party avowedly hostile to the institution of slavery, and elected a man to the presidency who also avowed the hostility to the institution of slavery, and who had been known to say that the Union could not exist both slave and free, was bound ultimately to become all slave or all free, and who in his Cooper Union address said that the anti-slavery sentiment had already caused more than a million votes, which could have seemed to the southern states nothing more or less than a danger and a menace. Consequently when they drew the sword to defend the doctrine of state's rights and the institution of slavery, they certainly had on their side the constitution and laws of the land, for a strict interpretation of the national constitution gave a certain justification to the doctrine of state's rights. As to the institution of slavery, even the abolitionists had made the discovery that the constitution legalized it, and consequently they denounced the constitution of the United States a league with death and a covenant with hell, and maintained that no moral or Christian man could find (Continued on Page 8.) EXERCISES OF PEARL HIGH AT RYMAN AUDITORIUM THURS. NIGHT Before Large Appreciative Audience. THIRTY BOYS AND GIRLS MARCH DOWN THE AISLE AND TAKE THEIR PLACES ON THE PLATFORM—ASSEMBLAGE CHEERS ENTHUSIASTICALLY — RENDITION OF PROGRAM PLEASING IN EVERY WAY—ACTING PRINCIPAL CRAWFORD PRESENTS CLASS. In the presence of one of the largest audiences that has ever assembled in the Ryman Auditorium the closing exercises of Pearl High School Thursday night completed another year's work of the public schools of this city. Promptly at eight o'clock the class of thirty boys and girls marched down the central aisle to the strains of a beautiful march played by Miss Eva Murrell. The members of the graduating class entered upon the platform and were seated in order. The illness of Prof. F. G. Smith, who has been principal of the school for fifteen years, prevented his being present at the exercises, which was a source of deep regret to the pupils and all interested in the Pearl school. Instead, Dr. J. P. Crawford, supervisor for the colored schools of the city, presided. A very attractive program of music and addresses had been arranged for the occasion. The first number on program was the opening chorus, "Away to the Woods," Geibel, mixed voices. Then the salutatory address, "Man is His Own Architect," Brady Herbert Jones. He handled his subject admirably and received hearty applause. "Say, I've Got a Little Brother," by Kratz, was beautifully rendered by the Pearl High School Glee Club of male voices. The valedictory address, "Useful Citizenship," by Ernest Charles Martin, was a masterpiece. He went right into the facts and presented his subject in a way that would be commendable of a man of experience. The Pearl High School Glee Club of female voices rendered a jubilee song that brought down the house. Acting principal, Dr. J. P. Crawford, in well-chosen words, presented the class to Hon. E. E. Barthell, President of the Board of Education. The president seemed touched by the scene that confrressed him. Closing chorus of mixed voices sang "Summer Roses," Geibel, and the curtain was drawn on a scene that will be long remembered by the citizens of this city. CLASS ROLL JANUARY CLASS, 1911.

SUMMER SCHOOL The colored summer schools will be conducted at Knowles, in North Nash)ville, and Napier, in South Nashville. The east side pupils will have to go to either Napier of Knowles, as there were not a sufficient number who presented themselves at Meigs to warrant the maintenance of a teaching force there. The parents doubtless did not clearly understand that they were abusing an opportunity that few cities have, namely, that of a summer school for the benefit of the pupils who are prepared to do a little extra work in the summer or who need to do so to be ready to proceed with their classes in the fall. The attendance at Knowles and Napier will be several hundred. Jackson, Teen., June 14.—Special to the Globe. At the close of the commencement exercises of Lane College this year President J. F. Lane announced amidst much applause a conditional gift of $7,000 to Lane College by the General Education Board of New York. It was not known then what the exact conditions upon which this money was given were; since that time the President has been officially informed, and a full understanding is now had. The donation is by far the largest one ever made to the college by persons other than the C. M. E. Church, and comes largely through the earnest efforts of the President, ably supplemented by that of Dr. J. W. Gilbert, of Augusta, Ga. Regarding this matter, President "Lane College greatly needs another boys' hall. The present dormitory for the boys accommodates less than one-half the young men who come each year to attend this college, and it is in behalf of this building that the gift from the General Education Board is made. To construct a hall in keeping with the other splendid buildings on the grounds, and one having a capacity to accommodate the school, will cost fully $20,000. Toward raising this amount, the General Education Board contributes $7,000, leaving $13,000 to be raised by the Trustees and friends of the college. Of course this condition will be met promptly, and the building will go up." The college has just closed a most successful session, and the Trustees and friends are jubilant over the prospects for a new hall on the grounds which has become a real necessity in recent years. VISITORS TO FISK COMMENCE MENTI. Mrs. Geo. Porter, of Omaha, Neb., was in the city this week to witness the graduation of he; daughter at Fisk University. PASSES ILLINOIS BOARD Charles L.

No.24 DELEGATES IN FROM CONGRESS DELEGATES IN FROM CONGRESS MEETING IN MERIDIAN A DECIDED SUCCESS New Features Added to the Work. METOKA AND GALEDA CLASSES ORGANIZED — BAPTISTS WILL NOT TRUCKLE TO WHITE BARACA PEOPLE—OFFIAL ORGAN SOUNDS THE WELKIN—SIXTH SESSION SURPASSES ALL OTHERS—PEOPLE OF MERIDIAN RECEIVE GUESTS WITH OPEN ARMS. The delegates who left here a few days ago for the Sunday-School Congress which was held in Meridian have returned, and they bring with them glowing reports of its success. New features were added to the Baptist Sunday-school work at the Meridian meeting in the inauguration of a movement similar to the Baraca. Baptists now have what they called Metokas or young men's advanced classes, and Galedas or young ladies advanced classes. As to the outlook for the future of the Congress, the National Baptist Union-Review will say this week: The sixth annual session of the Baptist Sunday-School Congress is now history—and it is great and glorious history at that! This splendid religious movement in the interest of those it can gather within the radius of its influence reached its highest point of intense, effective interest at Meridian. Words will not be able to depict, even when realization has been the resultant outcome of effort, the widespread influence for good that the Congress will represent in its well-drilled and well-marshalled forces of Sunday-school workers in a few brief years, if it is only given a lease of life undisturbed. The results developed by the various departmental mettings, which make up the Congress as a concrete Christian body, were wonderful, to say the least, in the light of the enthusiasm manifested by those participating. The people of Meridian accorded entertainment for those who entered their city to attend the Congress that was characterized by a graciousness of hospitality that may be equalled but not surpassed. Those who were in attendance upon that great meeting, having come to perform their humble task in religious work, can hardly expect, if perchance they desire, better treatment anywhere. Everybody who participated in the work of the Congress was pardonally overjoyed and delighted as well as encouraged and strengthened by the splendid and seemingly earnest words of advice and wisdom given utterance to by those who welcomed the gathering, both Negro and white ministry and laymen. The movement that has the good-will of thoughtful and spiritually-inclined people, is a movement that cannot will not die, because he who knows how to adjust and apply his teachings to all conditions of men, stands back of it. The entire Congress gave to the chieftain, the distinguished denominational leader, Dr. E. C. Morris, President of the National Baptist Convention, a rousing ovation as he passed down the aisle to the platform on Thursday afternoon, June 8. It was a fitting tribute to the leadership of a splendid man. And well did that enthusiastic ovation precede President Morris' ringing and eloquent response to addresses which were made by several distinguished white men. The presence of such a man as Rev. Dr. Morris among those who are following his lead, especially is this true of young people, means much of helpfulness and much of hopefulness to stimulate them to press forward and upward to higher and nobler things. The Congress stands for no man nor set of men exclusively, but for the uplift of all the people alike along the highway of endeavor. It is as much possible to turn the great Mississippi or the mighty Amazon from their channels as to turn this great Baptist Sunday-school movement from its original and primal end.

MUTUAL AID ASSOCIATION HOLD FIRST THANKSGIVING SERVICES. Shellbyville, Tenn., June 12.—The Mutual Aid Association of the U. S. A., Lodge No 56, held its annual Thanksgiving exercises Sunday at 2:30 p. m. Owing to the fact that this was the initial demonstration for this lodge here, it created quite a sensation among the citizens of this and adjoining towns. Long before the hour of services vehicles, carriages and wagons, could be seen wending their way to the Christian church to catch the first glimpse of the Mutualites as they emerged from their hall. At 2:15 the lodge could be seen with its badges glistening with lustrous emblems making its way to the church. At 2:30 the lodge was seated by the master of ceremonies, Prof. J. F. Williams, and the congregation joined in singing, "Nearer, my God, to thee." Prayer was offered by Rev. J. H. Hillsman. This was followed by a duet by Mrs. L. V. Clay and Miss Sarah Jennings. Rev. Hillsman made remarks on "Thanksgiving," being followed by a paper on "Mutualism" by W. C., Miss S. C. Brown. The M. W. G. Com., T. T. Ransom, rendered a beautiful solo, "Life is what we make it." Rev. F. W. Gardner, D. D., was then introduced and took for his theme, "She has done what she could." Among other things he said, "No one could be a good Mutualite unless he was loyal to his church." PROMINENT LOUISIANA CON- TRACTOR IN THE CITY. Prominent among the visitors who came to the city during the week was Mr. L. Crenzot, of Alexandria, Ia. Mr. Creuzot is a brick contractor at his home. During the first six months of this year he has erected several large business buildings in Alexandria, among them being the Union depot and the Stagg Hotel. Mr. Creuzot's work is not confined to Louisiana, he having recently erected a large school building in South Shelby County, Tex. Mr. P. P. Creuzot, the eldest son of the above-named gentleman, is a member of the graduating class at Fisk University this year, and his father is here to witness the same. The young man is very popular in this city. CALLED TO GEORGIA ON A SAD MISSION. Miss Sara E. Flagg left Monday night for Washington, Ga., where she will attend the funeral of her cousin, Mr Russell D Evans, who died after a very short illness. Mr. Evans formerly lived here a while with his aunt, Mrs William Flagg, after the death of Rev. Wm. Flagg, Jr., D. D. He was a member of the Barbers' Union here in Nashville, and while here was known prominently as the youngest barber in the state. The friends of Nashville were indeed shocked as well as the family to hear of his almost sudden death. SHELBYVILLE NOTES The new pews made for the A. M. E. Church by the National Baptist Publishing Board are now being installed. Dr. J. Q. Johnson plans a grand re-opening and basket dinner for the second Sunday in July. NON-RESIDENT NOTICE.

FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1911 Dr. Stowe's Address. In an address at the commencement at Fisk University last Wednesday morning Dr. Chas. E. Stowe, of New York, put as fair a construction on the cause of the civil war as we believe it possible for any one to do. Those who heard Dr. Stowe and who have the least inclination to be fair must admit that he did justice to both sides. In stating his views on the great conflict he said very little that was original, but quoted men of the North and of the South to establish the truth about the matter. Dr. Stowe is the youngest son of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, the author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," the book that many claim was responsible for the civil war, but it was clearly established on last Wednesday by one who has made this question a life-time study that it was commercial jealousy that brought on the war and the slaves were that asset that became the bone of contention. Many were surprised no doubt when Dr. Stowe proved that the men of the North were the rebels and that the men of the South were only fighting for what the constitution guaranteed them. But the truth is the light, and men are ever seeking light and will leap from the darkness instantly when the light appears. The basic principle of the address was that laid down by the Christ when in the world in his utterance to his disciples when he told them "All ye are brethren," and it was on this ground that Dr. Stowe justified the "Northern rebels" in their anti-slavery crusade. It is this great principle that encourages men to believe that a millenium will come and that the clamor in this day for a universal peace is not an idle dream. The North and South of this great country will get together. They will meet each other as brethren. Then the much mooted Negro question will be adjusted fairly. We may not expect it until then. For so long as there is an imaginery Mason and Dixon line just so long will there be a Negro question. But when men like Dr. Stowe and Dr. R. Lin Cave can agree on a discussion of the civil war we may feel that there is hope of an early adjustment of the difference between the North and South, and when that is removed the race question as related to the Negro will die a natural death. Negro the Hobby. We call attention to two articles in another column of this issue dealing with the Negro question. One is a portion of an address delivered by Hon. Noah W. Cooper, of this city, and another is an excerpt from an address delivered in Washington by Senator Bailey, of Tevas. Hon Mr. Cooper spoke on what constituted an ideal Negro. Senator Bailey appealed to the prejudice of the white people of the country in an effort to gain a little notoriety. In the face of these dif NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. JUNE 16. 1911. ferent utterances the question arises, what can the Negro hope for in this country. One man of unblemished character speaks with a hope that lifts them to the highest pinnacle of usefulness. The Negro then picks up a daily paper and he reads where one of the leading Senators in the Congress of the United States urges that white people forever keep the Negro under submission. So what must he do? Must he falter because of these things? Are they new to him? The answer comes to both of these questions, no; they are not new to the Negro and he will not be daunted by them. He is pressing forward, buying land for his children and becoming a factor in this American Nation, and, in the language of one of the leading Negroes in this country, "if the white people of America want to stay in this country with the Negro, they had just as well make up their minds to deal fairly with him," for the Negro is undoubtedly here to stay, and those people who do not want to stay here with him had just as well pack their grips and leave to some other clime. When the senior senator of New York gets through with the reciprocity bill it will be all Root. Of course Teddy will make up will Willie. Mexico for Mexicans seems to be a lesson learned by the people of that country. The Yankee is capable of teaching such a lesson. It is to be regretted that the people on the east side could not appreciate a summer school. These opportunities do not come to us every day. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. Whether on land or sea, or in thin air, the colored man and brother in comparison with his fellows of whatever race or clime, has long ago decided to make a showing. In this connection it is right in place to announce that Henry Flanagan, 315 Mayflower street, Fort Worth, Texas, has invented an airship which in many respects outclasses all previous efforts of the sport of the traveling on the wings of the wind.-Dallas Express. THE MEASURE OF A MAN. To estimate correctly a man's conduct in a given crisis we must know the man—his capabilities and opportunities. We reason mostly by relativity, and comparison is our highway to conclusion. We command or condemn by comparison. This is an open sesame to injustice unless we are careful; for characters are like fractions; they must be reduced to a common denominator before accurate comparison can be made. Duty faithfully done is the common denominator of character. By this alone can men justly be compared. The man with one talent that doubles it has done as well as the man with ten when he doubles. Nature is impartial in her requirements, but partial in her gifts. She will burn the chubby hand of the innocent babe with the same severity that she will harden the liver of a drunkard; punishing alike the innocent absence of knowledge and the guilty abuse of it. We are the children of nature and have learned injustice from our mother. Cultivation cures or intensifies this hereditary tendency according as we follow the tutelage of our Father, God, or our stepfather, the devil. Doctors should remember this when judging each other.—National Medical Association Journal. SOME OBSERVATIONS—INTERDENOMINATIONAL LITERA- TURE IS IT REST? TURE—IS IT BEST? Here is an interrogative theme, projecting an inquiry that is fraught with importance and significance that should not be lightly or superficially canvassed, if we are to arrive at just conclusions, or conserve the best interests of truth. It is an inquiry that has met the thoughtful consideration of several of the evangelical Negro denominations, who have registered a negative answer, proving by their achievements in producing denominational literature, and the better results accruing therefrom, over against the results coming from the use of interdenominational literature, that the latter is not the best literature for the specific use and purposes of the several denominations that are separate and distinct factors and agencies in religious work. In addressing our thought to this inquiry it is well to define literature, interdenominational literature and denominational litterature. Literature, according to the best authorities, is the collective body of literary productions, embracing the entire results of knowledge and fan- cy preserved in writing; also, the whole body of literary productions or writings upon a given subject, or in reference to a particular science or branch of knowledge, or of a given country or period, race, or people, or nation. This, in fine, is substantially what creditable authorities give as a definition of literature. Interdenominational literature—and in this connection it is limited to the meaning of religious or Sunday-school literature—is, as a fact, commercial literature, manufactured to supply the demands of such bodies, organizations or denominations doing religious work, but who are not creating a literature of their own. Those who produce this kind of literature—interdenominational—do so with an eye single to the fact that it must ingratiate itself into the good graces of all denominations whose patronage is sought. They are called upon to make especial efforts not to give offense by attempting to deal with and develop doctrines, principles or teachings peculiar to any as opposed to those of others. A winding in and out, here and there to shun giving offense by erroneous interpretation of the faith and doctrines of the several denominations supporting this kind of literature, is a delicate as well as difficult task on the part of its makers. With this view, it is patent then, that interdenominational literature is, through and through, a sort of compromise; and of necessity, must be, if it maintains its value and worth as a salable commercial product or commodity. Denominational literature is a specific literature—a literature produced by those of that denomination whose devotion of its well-being make every effort in its interest a labor of love and duty. The making of denominational literature comes under the head of specialty, because it has a definite end and purpose to fulfill—that of providing wholesale and religious periodicals for the denomination creating the demand. Every people who have amounted to anything in the affairs of the world have been those who have made for themselves a literature. Interdenominational literature—is it best? Four Negro denominational publishing plants, by their commendable and wonderful achievements in turning out a creditable class of denominational literature, answer this question in the negative. These four plants are the A. M. E. Publishing House, Nashville, Tenn.; the C. M. E. Publishing House, Jackson, Tenn.; the A. M. E. Zion Publishing House, Charlotte, N. C., and our own, the National Baptist Publishing House, Nashville, Tenn. The thoughtful men of the denominations to which these several publishing enterprises belong, though inexperienced, blazed out the way by their faith and indomitable courage, that has brought success—success of which no set of men should be ashamed. We have attempted, in our humble way, to show that the negative of the inquiry we started out to discuss is true.—National Baptist Union-Review. TO KEEP THE BABY WELL. 1. Give it pure air day and night. 2. Give it no food but mother's milk, or milk from the bottle, or food directed by a physician. 3. Whenever it cries or is fretful, do not offer it food, but give it water. 4. Be sure that it gets enough sleep, two naps at least during the day. 5. Do not put too much clothing on it. 6. Bathe it every day in a tub. 7. Don't handle it: Let it alone. (Adapted from the Babies' Milk Fund Association of Louisville, Ky.) THE CARE OF BABIES IN HOT WEATHER. Clothing. In the hot weather a thin gauze shirt, a thin muslin slip, and a diaper. On the hottest days the slip and diaper are enough. Keep the baby as cool and comfortable as possible. As soon as a diaper is soiled it should be removed. Place it in a pail with a cover to keep the odors in and the flies out. Cover it with water and wash as soon as possible in hot water to which a little soda has been added. The diaper should be well rinsed and thoroughly dried before being worn again. At least once a week all diapers should be thoroughly boiled. After every movement the parts soiled should be carefully cleansed at once. Babies often get sick from being left in soiled diapers. Never think of putting on any kind of baby powder until the skin is clean and fairly dry. If the skin becomes chafed in any of the cracks or wrinkles, apply a little zinc oxide ointment. Bathing. The best time for the bath is just before a feeding—if possible at the same time each day. The baby should be bathed every day in a tub. The water should be slightly warmer than its own body. Use soap that will not irritate its skin. NASHVILLE FURNITURE CO. Telephone M.1761 ```markdown ``` Davenports . . . One Suit Oak One Range - OLD STOVES A Do not bathe within an hour after eating. In very hot weather finish the bath with a little cooler water, and give three or four general spongings during the day with cool water containing a little salt. If the child suffers from "prickly heat" bathe the affected skin with vinegar and water. But remember that a roughened or inflamed skin may be the sign of an infectious disease and needs the care of a physician. After the bath let the baby sleep for two hours. Such a midday nap should be insisted on until the child is a year old and is advisable until the age of four. Cover the child only with a light sheet when it is hot. Fresh air is very necessary. Leave the windows wide open. Never put a child to sleep in a closed-up room. Keep it out of doors as much as possible. Avoid the sun on hot days. Keep on the shady side of a street, or in shady spots in the park, or in any shady spots where the air is fresh. (To be continued next week.) U. B. F. OF TEXAS.

Boone has been at St. Peter a little more than two years, or since he finished his term at St. Paul, Nashville. He has sustained a splendid record at this place, and it came as a shock when he announced to his congregation last Sunday morning that he had accepted another appointment. He and his wife will carry with them the love and respect of all the people of this city. Rev. G. W. Porter, presiding elder of the Clarksville District, was on the alert and remained at Clarksville Sunday to take charge of things about St. Peter and the church will move smoothly on until a successor is appointed to Dr. Boone.

Porter from attending the commencement at Wilberforce this week, which he had planned to do. Prof. A. E. Greenlaw, after singing at St. Peter Tuesday night left Wednesday night for his post of duty in Canada. Many speculations are being indulged as to who will succeed Dr. Boone, but the people are not at all uneasy for they know that B'shop Parks and Dr. Porter will take care of the interest of the church, Mrs. and Prof. Childress, of Dickson, Tenn., passed through the city this week from the teacher's institute at Erin, where they have contracted for the next school term.

COMMENCEMENT AT FISK or hold office under such an accursed government as ours, and gave all their energies to proving that secession was the duty of the fellow-states. "So, is it not perfectly evident that there was a great rebellion, but that the rebels were the northerners, and that those who defended the constitution as it was were the southerners, for they defended state's rights and slavery, which were distinctly entrenched within the constitution. ORIGIN OF CIVIL WAR. "So we can truly say that the underlying, efficient cause of our civil war was the compromises of the con- 3 HILARY E. HOWSE. E BROS.

Y 4 TUESDAY stitution, utterly irreconcilable principles existing there side by side, covered only by compromises that could in the end satisfy neither party. "Then came the great controversy that ended in the Missouri compromise. Into that entered also the element of slavery when the free states denied the slave power any part of the Louisiana purchase, which was the purchase of the whole nation. The slaveholders rose up in anger and asked why they, with their peculiar property, should be shut out from territory which had been purchased by the whole nation. Here again there was a compromise but not a solution. LINCOLN'S ATTITUDE "Lincoln was our Bismark, and Lincoln's policy after the surrender at Appomattox was conciliatory toward the south, and it was a deep misfortune for the southern people, as for the whole nation, that he was removed by the hand of an insane assassin just at the moment when he might have completed the great work which he had carried through such a period of national stress and storm to the point of absolute victory. "We can better understand the anti-slavery agitation in its bearings on the development of our national history when we remember that in the formation of the Colonization Society, of which Henry Clay was president, the conscience of anti-slavery men, both at the north and south, found a most effective opiate in the doctrine of gradual emancipation and deportation of the slaves to Africa. "So, as we look back upon the war, it ought to have for us no sting of bitterness, but every angry thought should be stilled in presence of a great sorrow. On both sides were men of the highest principle and the noblest intention, giving themselves up in heroic devotion and self-sacrificing bravery to what they thought was true. CONDITION OF SLAVES. "Sometimes the question 's asked, Were not the slaves better off under slavery than they are now under freedom?" I think a candid answer to that question demands us to say, some were better off under slavery than they are under freedom. The abolition of slavery acted on the colored race, like a wedge, forcing some down and some up. Those who were fit for freedom, prepared to embrace and make the most of the opportunities offered them as free men, rose. But some were not fit for freedom. Now, that is no reflection upon the colored race. We have a very large proportion of the white race NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1911. PHONE, MAIN 1096. that are not fit for freedom. We have innumerable numbers of men and women that we are compelled to confine in institutions and keep as wards of the state, or they destroy themselves and everybody else. "If slavery were an unutterably evil institution, with no alleviating features, how are we to account for the fact that when the Confederate soldiers were at the front fighting, as they thought, for their independence, the Negroes on the plantations took care of the women, children and old people, and nothing like an act of violence was ever known among them? I have seen in Charleston, S. C., a monument erected by former slaveholders and their descendants in grateful acknowledgement of the fidelity of those slaves who remained upon the plantations and cared for their women and children while they were at the front, and I understand that the Confederate veterans are also to erect another such monument. "Certainly, such kindly feeling between master and slave shows that there must have been something good in the institution of slavery. Certainly that is the plain implication of 'Uncle Tom's Cabin,' for the very noblest characters in the book, Mrs. Shelby, Eliza, Uncle Tom, St. Clare and little Eva, were all the offspring of the institution of slavery and nourished on its breast, and certainly an institution that in itself was essentially wicked and diabolical could not have produced such noble characters. "So, we should not look back upon slavery as a reign of unalleviated wickedness and horror, but remember that it had within itself, in spite of its many abuses and intolerable horrors much that was good. "But it is forever past, and the two races must now dwell side by side, no longer master and slave, but as fellow-citizens, in the same republic. That the proposition, 'We believe, that men are created equal,' was flagrantly violated by the slave power and by the institution of slavery, finds tacit acknowledgement in the fact that Alexander H. Stephens, in addition to saving that the Southern Confederacy had the peculiar excellence of being the only government, so far as he knew, that had made slavery its foundation stone, also said that for the erroneous proposition of Jefferson, 'All men are created equal,' must be substituted the undeniable fact of the inferiority of the Negro to the white man, and that his only possible relation to the white man must be that of slavery or subordination of the inferior to the superior race. "And into this conflict you must go and take your part. Your people, since the emancipation, have made praiseworthy, and, on the whole, remarkable progress upward. But, nevertheless, there are sections of your people that lag behind, as might be expected. They must be raised, for if there is to be friction between the two races, it will be between ignorant whites and ignorant blacks. Education is the only possible solution of the problem. Your people are to find their place in our democracy, not as a people, but as individuals, for in the long run, though you develop a culture of your own, as you certainly will, in exercising the right of suffrage, as citizens and before the law, you are individuals. For the right of suffrage and of citizenship in our republic, founded on the great principle, 'We believe men are equal', must be irrespective of race, color or social condition. COLOR LINE CLOSELY DRAWN. "It is an unfortunate thing, to my mind, that the color line has been so drawn, and that the attention of both the races is of necessity so concentrated upon the fact of color. But that is inevitable. It cannot be otherwise. To my mind, the only solution is that your people should develop their own peculiar culture, their own peculiar race pride, and remove prejudice, not by protest, but by doing away with all worthy cause for such prejudice. That comes through thrift, economy, education, intelligence and work of character. It is a difficult problem that is before you for solution. I believe you are solving it, and upon you educated young men and women, who go forth as teachers, leaders and inspirers of your own people, rests a great responsibility, but with that responsibility a mighty opportunity for good. "So, that there are great and peculiar difficulties in the way of the colored men and women to-day, is simply to say that they have an impulse and inspiration to rise and to improve themselves that is lacking among those who are more highly favored. It is a splendid thing, the battle with adversity. It gets out all that is harboring in it. OPEN DOOR OF OPPORTUNITY. "So there is before you the open door of opportunity, and there are many adversaries. To my mind, there is no more impressive sight than ten millions of black people on this continent slowly and surely advancing, cheered on by a few, but looked upon with indifference, scorn or positive hostility by the millions and millions of white people about them, barbarous Africa, the slave ship, the slave pen, the auction block, the plantation and the lash, but before them liberty, education, opportunity and culture. Could any officer call out what is heroic within you and make you determined to show the world that you are men and women who have the very highest capabilities of the human race within you, than the position in which you are placed to-day before the millions of the white race who are watching your progress?" In conclusion, Dr. Stowe read letters from Theodore Roosevelt and President Taft. BACHELORS OF ART IN CLASSICS.

Mrs. C. M. Powell is in the city for an indefinite stay with her husband. Mr. Robert Woodson, the son of Rev. G. P. Woodson, is convalescent. We are glad to know that his mother, Mrs. Woodson, is some better. Mrs. Bunch is feeling much better. Mrs. Sarah Randals and Mrs. H. C. Edmunds have been quite slick for some days. Little Miss Christine Martin, the baby of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Martin, has been ill. Mrs. Fitch is some better. It is reported that Mr. Homa Biles has returned to the city from St. Louis, Mo. The public school closing was the best in its history; there were three to finish school; the address by Dr. C. M. Powell, "The Final Night," was very practical and instructive. Mrs. T. W. Hampton was re-elected principal. PHYLLIS WHEATLEY HOME FOR AGED. Great activity among the members R. R. TIME TABLE. Louisville & Nashville R. R. New Union Station.
