NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. WASHINGTON TOURS TEXAS STARTED IN BEAUTIFUL SAN ANTONIO Trip Consumed Eight Day's in All. GREAT CROWDS GREET DISTINGUISHED EDUCATOR—SPEAKS WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO SCHOOL CHILDREN—TELLS THEM TO SAVE THEIR PENNIES—OVERFLOW CROWD AT HOUSTON—WHITE AND BLACK JOIN IN APPLAUSE—DR. WASHINGTON TALKS FRANKLY TO NEGROES—URGES THEM TO BE GOOD CITIZENS—TRAIN SEVEN HOURS LATE. San Antonio Express, Sept. 27.—Fully three thousand people, about one thousand of whom were white, filled every available seat in the Beethoven Hall, crowded in the windows and stood around the walls and aisles to hear Booker T. Washington, the famous Tuskegee Negro educator speak last night. The occasion marked the beginning of an eight-day trip through the State of Texas, which is being taken for the purpose of promoting the friendly relations between the races and to further promote the progress of the Negro people. In the afternoon Dr. Washington spoke to the Negro school children at Second Baptist Church, counseling them to make their education worth while in their every-day lives and to take their mothers and fathers in their training with them. "Don't let people discourage you," he said on this occasion. Do not listen to such talk that will make you dispondent or dissatisfied. People will tell you that you are poor, that you are black and members of the despised race. Take lessons after the foreigners who come here in the direct poverty, peddle bananas on the streets, then rise to owners of small stores, then afterwards to directors in banks. Begin now to save your pennies and help your mothers and fathers in your own support." What the Negro Owns in Texas. "Let me repeat, the colored people have made progress. They are making progress, and I come to you with the sole object in view of helping you, if possible, to make greater progress. "According to the most accurate record that we can find, colored people in this State own and pay taxes on $30,000,000 worth of property. In 1900 the colored people in this State owned and paid taxes upon 65,000 farms; during the last ten years they have bought 4,000 additional farms. While this is not as great a gain as has been made by the colored people of other States, it indicates progress in farm getting, and I urge upon all our people, with all the emphasis that I can command, the importance of their owning land, of their getting out of the cities into the rural communities, onto the soil. As a rule our people are better off in the country districts, cultivating the soil than they are in large cities. If we do not get hold of farms now, the time will come when it will be impossible for us to do so. "I find further, that last year the colored people raised in Texas about 465,000 bales of cotton, valued at about $32,000,000; that they raised 16,000,000 bushels of corn, valued at about $12,000,000. It is safe to say that the colored people of Texas last year got for their farm products of all kinds about $40,000,000. It is safe to say further, that colored people living by other forms of labor than by farming earned about $10,000,000 more, making the total earnings in Texas for our race about $50,000,000. South is the Place for Negro. "Now the main question which I want to put to you colored people is this: What becomes of this immense amount of money? How much of it is invested in property, in lands, in houses? How much of it is squandered, practically thrown away, year by year, in drink, in gambling, in idleness, in useless dress, for cheap jewelry, and in other directions that mean nothing to the race. I want to urge NASHVILLE. TENN. FRIDAY OCTOBER 6, 1911 Mayor Howse's Record on Which He Asks the Support of the People. Mayor Howse is asking the suffrage of the voters of the City of Nashville on the record he has made as Mayor of this city for the last two years; and while he has been subjected to more abuse than any man who was ever Mayor of this city, the fact remains that he has accomplished more to the people than any other Mayor in a generation. Mayor Howse asserts without fear of contradiction that the city of Nashville is one of the best governed and most economically-managed cities of its size in the United States, and that the morals of the people of this city compare favorably with the morals of the people of any city in the world. Those people who have traveled and visited other cities know it to be a fact, that Nashville is one of the quietest and most peaceable cities to be found anywhere. It was Mayor Howse who recommended that all the teachers, both colored and white, in the city schools, be given an increased renumeration for their services, believing as he did that it was unjust for school teachers to lose two months in the year without any compensation whatever, when they were required, if they kept upon your ministers, your teachers and upon parents the importance of teaching our people to save a large part of this income. The party left last night for Galveston and Houston, where Dr. Washington will speak today. Other stops will be made in Prairie View, Austin, Waco, Corsicana, Fort Worth, Dallas, Marshall and intermediate points. Altogether the party will be in Texas eight days. Great Ovation in Houston. Houston Daily Post, Sept. 28. Over 7,000 people, about 2,000 of whom were white, thronged the City Auditorium last night and listened for two hours to Booker T. Washington, the well-known Negro educator, deliver one of the sanest and most helpful addresses on the relation of the white and black races in the South that has ever been heard in the city. White and black joined in vigorous applause throughout the address, showing perfect accord in their endorsement of the sentiments of the speaker, and at times the great audience was swayed by such enthusiasm as to make it difficult for Dr. Washington to proceed. Dr. Washington spoke to his race frankly, and he spoke to the white people present frankly. He declared that the two races have to lived together in peace, and that on the whole they are living together in peace. He advised his people to be good workmen. To make themselves good workmen in so many lines that they would become indispensable to the white man. He exhorted them to save their money, to accumulate property, to be good husbands and wives and fathers and mothers, and, above all, to be good citizens. And all of this was applauded to the echo by both white and black. The meeting at the Auditorium was the climax of a most strenuous day spent by Dr. Washington in Houston. Arriving in the city seven hours late, his special train being delayed by a wreck, the program which was to have filled the day was curtailed somewhat, but the afternoon was filled with engagements which the committee insisted upon his filling. Most of these, however, were with institutions of his own race, and it was not until the evening meeting that the general public, both white and black, met the great educator face to face and listened to his eloquent and wholesome advice. Negro Leaders in the Party. In the party with Dr. Washington were Emmett J. Scott, Dr. Washington's secretary; Nathan Hunt, stenographer; Booker T. Washington, Jr., Dr. J. A. Kenney, resident physician, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama; Dr. R. E. Park, magazine writer, Boston, Mass.; Charles S. Tator, New York Evening Post, New York City; Rev. D. C. Lacy, San Antonio, Texas; A. P. Bedon, photographer, New Or- abreast of the times, to give this time to study and preparation. It was Mayor Howse, in connection with the influential colored men of this city, who did more than anyone to secure the location of the State Normal School in Davidson County. It was Mayor Howse who went to the rescue of the unfortunate white and colored laborers who were killed and injured in the Fall disaster, and with his own hands took out six or seven injured colored laborers and rushed them to the City Hospital. It was Mayor Howse and the Hon. J. M. Wilkerson who, at their own expense and out of their own personal fund, paid a crew of from twenty to forty laborers to excavate in these fallen buildings for the bodies of the unfortunate dead who were buried there. Mayor Howse has extended charity out of his own personal funds to all the worthy people who have applied to his office, and no partiality has been shown between the colored and white races in receiving this bounty. Mayor Howse promised, if re-elected, to be just to all classes of people and generous to the poor and oppressed. It was Mayor Howse who labored night and day for months in an effort to erect a Tuberculosis Hospital where the unfortunates of bett leans, La.; R. L.

Alexander, of Little Rock, Ark., and Mr. M. H. Harrison, State Grand Master of Kentucky, of the Mosaic Templars of America, installed the officers of the Nashville Globe Temple and Clarion Chamber in the Pythian Temple Monday night. The entire membership of McIntosh Chamber, that has been in existence here many years under the leadership of the Worthy Zipporah Mistress and the S. G. A. Mrs. Jane Young, tendered the National Grand Master and the officers of the new Temple and Chamber a reception after the installation of officers. A large crowd of visitors were present and joined in the merriment of the evening. Short talks were made by the following persons: National Grand Master W. M. Alexander made the opening remarks in his usual way, instructing the officers in their duties. He spoke at length of the financial condition of the order. Prof. W. S. Thompson, who was recently appointed inspector of the colored lodges of the state by the Insurance Commissioner, made a stirring speech of his trip to the National headquarters in Little Rock, and the financial condition that he found after six days investigation of the books of the order. Mr. A. N. Johnson, one of the leading undertakers of the city, spoke of the merits of the order and his loyalty and friendship to the few faithful members in tendering them the use of his parlors for a meeting place. The three lodges by a rising vote thanked Mr. Johnson for his kindnesses. Mrs. Anna T. Jackson spoke of the eighteen years she had been connected with the committee of the National department. Mrs. Rosa A. Rose and Mr. J. Thomas Turner made very interesting talks on the order. Mrs. Rose was appointed National Deputy Mistress for the district of Nashville by the National Grand Master. Mrs. Jane Young spoke of the state work and assured them when they visited the order again that she would have a much larger membership. races could be treated free of charge. It was Mayor Howse who advocated an increased appropriation for the City Hospital; and also recommended that an addition be erected whereby the poor of both races could have better facilities for treatment when sick, and have better opportunities to be cured. Mayor Howse has inaugurated many substantial improvements and betterments, and when reelected, as he certainly will be, he promises to devote his time and attention in an effort to promoting the interest of the people of the City of Nashville. The doors of the Mayor's office, since Mayor Howse has been Mayor, have stood wide open and all who have called have been given an audience and their complaints have been listened to patiently, and if Mayor Howse could be of service to them he always has responded to their appeals cheerfully. Mayor Howse will be re-elected on October 12th by one of the handsomest majorities that was ever given to a public official in Davidson County, and the colored race of this city should not lose this opportunity to share in the honor which will be accorded to this man who has been Just, honest and progressive. Mrs. Bittie Waller performed valuable services in spreading the dainties on the table for the visitors. Miss Eva Mai Collier, the secretary to the National Grand Master, and Miss Lady B. Stringer rendered valuable service in assisting the committee on entertainment. The National Grand Master, W. H. Alexander, organized a lodge in East Nashville Thursday night. Mrs. T. F. Turner, of Pulaski, Tenn., Endowment Secretary of the Courts of Calanthes for the state of Tennessee, was present and spoke very highly of the order. Mrs. Clemmie White, Worthy Zipporah Mistress, spoke a few words of encouragement. W. H. Alexander, National Grand Master, and M. H. Harrison, Grand Master for Kentucky, will leave the city Saturday for Louisville, Ky., where they go in the interest of the order. ST. JOHN. The regular Quarterly Conference of the A. M. E. Church opens Sunday with conference services at 11 a. m., and 8 p. m. Bishop Evans Tyree, A. M., D. D., of the Tenth Episcopal District will be present, also Rev. G. L.

Last night Mayor Howse made the hearts of the pastor and members of the Spruce Street Baptist Church glad when at the conclusion of his speech he presented Dr. Townsend with a check for $150.00. Mayor Howse is a friend to the needy. All he does is done from a pure heart. No. 39 ONLY EIGHTEEN NEGROES OUT OF A TOTAL OF 316 HAVE PEL: EGRA state Experts Submit Findings DISEASE FOUND IN SIXTY-SEVEN COUNTIES—IN EVERY CASE VICTIM USES CORNMEAL—VARIOUS TABLES SHOWN—CONCLUSION REACHED—SHOWN THAT FIRST CASES SPRING FROM REMOTE LOCALITIES—IN SOME COUNTIES THERE IS YET NO EVIDENCE OF DISEASE—NO PROOF OF TRANSMISSION—IMPERATIVE THAT PUBLIC BE INSTRUCTED. The report that the state's pellagra experts submitted to the State Board of Health, at the afternoon session Tuesday, shows that the disease has been discovered in sixty-seven counties in the state. The observation is also noted that in every case the victim of the disease uses cornmeal. "Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 3, 1911. "To the State Board of Health—Gentlemen: The undersigned members of the commission appointed to investigate the pellagra situation in the State of Tennessee beg to make the following report: "Number of counties in the state, 96; number of counties visited, 64; number of counties found with pellagra, 58; number of counties with pellagra not visited, 9; total number of counties with pellagra, 67; number of detailed reports on file, 316. "We have prepared a map indicating approximately the location of cases in the state. We think that the greater number of cases in the cities represent merely cases that have been brought there for treatment. "We beg to submit the following conclusions for the considerations of the board, which conclusions are offered tentatively as only representing the apparent situation as we understand it after making the report and without prolonged deliberation on the subject. "1. The data gathered in the fields show that first cases, as a rule, spring up in the most remote places. While some of these have been imported from other states, quite as many give no history of exposure to any person or place infected with pellagra. "2. The disease has appeared rather simultaneously at widely different points—not in any way related to each other, either as to avenue of infection or as to similarity of local conditions. "3. The epidemic of pellagra in the United States has appeared in disregard of all laws of epidemiology. There has been no route of travel or sequence of development characteristic of infectious diseases. "4. While first cases may appear in disregard of any system of irregularity, a large number of cases have apparently become foci from the development of secondary cases. "5. Such secondary appearance falls to sustain either view of the etiology of the disease to the exclusion of the other. Such exposed persons may partake of the infected or poisonous food, contract the disease through the bite of an insect or may become contaminated in some other way. "6. In some counties there is yet no evidence of secondary cases, roi in one instance the first case appeared seven years ago and this patient is now living on the bank of a stream. "7. Approximately 95 per cent of cases admit the use of corn meal in some form, and which many are tempted to mislead, there seem to be authentic cases of abstention from corn in all its forms. No case is reported of the complete absence of corn meal from the premises for a term of years. Howse Bros.

BUFORD NOTES The eating off the leaves from the cotton by the caterpillars has caused the cotton to open much earlier than usual, and most of the rural schools have been compelled to close to answer the call of the cotton field. Some say there will be a shortage in cotton, as the caterpillar destroyed the young bolls; others say the bolls would not have matured anyway, as the first frost would have impeded them. There was an entertainment recently given by the teacher, Mrs. M. K. Buford, and the pupils of Blue Creek School for the benefit of the school. This school will re-open as soon as cotton gathering is over. Quite a number of persons from this vicinity attended the County Fair at Pulaski.

Almost forty have already enrolled in the boarding department and school has been inprogress just a little more than a week. At this rate, what will the harvest be? Is this enough to convince the weak friends who are subject to "seein' things at night?" The school is prosperous and each year at any stage shows a constant and substantial increase and improvement over that of previous years. No school nor prosperous enterprise can long survive without the prayers of the righteous because the prayers of the righteous prevaileth much Roger Williams "prevaileth much," therefore the righteous Baptists of the state of Tennessee have sent forth their prayers for Roger Williams, and many prosperous returns have been her experience.

Vote Your Convictions. Next Thursday the voters of this city will be called upon to settle the controversy that has been going on for several weeks between the regulars and irregulars. In other words, the campaign is about over, and the work is to be done now by the people. On the 12th, which is Thursday of next week, it must be decided who shall conduct the affairs of this city during the next two years. We have all along contended that a tried article is better than an untreid. The law-enforcement crowd, no doubt, (at least some of them) believe they are right, but when that bunch is sifted it can be clearly seen that the men who were the instigators of all this excitement we have in our city are men who are seeking office, or who have some ax to grind, and to accomplish that end they are willing to besmirch the good name of our city. Many unfair things have been said and done in this campaign, the most of which have been aimed directly at Mayor Howse. Many of the men who are abusing the Mayor now voted for him two years ago. He was no stranger to them then, and why is he objectionable now? The truth of the whole matter is the democrat party was rent in twain and all of the elects were afraid to tackle the job. It was decided to saddle up Hiliary E. Howse and make a cat's paw of him. But low and behold skip-and-hop Johns soon found out that he was up against a real proposition. To the great surprise of the designing politicians the present Mayor not only beat Johns but proceeded at once to "make good," which he has done in a most admirable manner. Now is it fair to throw a man down because he has made good? No! no! and the people of this city are not going to do it. They are going to elect the entire Howse ticket from start to finish. What have the Stahlmanites guaranteed to the people? Nothing. All of their energy has been spent trying to convince the voters that Nashville is a bad city, and our schools will all be broken up. But a voice mightier than theirs speaks as convincingly as it ever was possible to be done. That voice is the wheels of progress. Nashville is growing rapidly. New businesses; new schools; bigger and better banks and more of them, these things tell us that we are progressing. We know all good citizens desire to see our prosperity continue, and will prove it on the 12th by casting their votes for the man who has made it possible for such a condition to exist. When you enter the booth keep in mind that you are a free man, and vote as your mind tells you. We are satisfied that your mind is telling you now to vote the regular democratic ticket headed by Mayor Hiliary E. Howse. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1911 Cottages For Sale By the Bransford Realty Company on Easy Terms. BRANSFORD REALTY CO. CAPITAL STOCK $900,000.00 162 Fourth Avenue, N., Phones, Main 2323 and 2324 News comes to us from authentic sources that Col. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, the brilliant southerner who has long filled the editorial chair of the New York Age, is soon to return to the South and take up active journalism in this section, hoping to build here a great newspaper property. The Globe nopes that this is true. Our most widely-known editorial writer, and familiarly called the Watterson of the race, Col. Simmons, will be received by the people with the respect due his scholarship, his patriotism and his achievements. It takes a great deal of moral courage to surrender the place held by Col. Simmons in the life of New York to return to labor in the South. Moral Cowards. One night during the Colored State Fair several young men were arrested on the charge that they were playing a slot machine. They were handcuffed and abused worse than dogs. It is said by those who were eyewitnesses that the deputies who made the arrests treated these men worse than if they had been dumb brutes, in fact, worse than the human laws will allow a man to treat his stock. It is also said that in the presence of these men's wives they were cursed to names too vile to repeat here. After remaining with the handcuffs on them for an hour or more—until a squire could be gotten from the city to make bond, the men were released. The machines were brought to the city, but after looking into the matter Sheriff Borum ordered them carried back to Greenwood, where they remained the balance of the week. So the charge must have been groundless. The Sheriff would not have ordered a gambling device put in a public park. It is absurd to think so. The people were astounded at the outrage and felt certain that the case would be fought to the bitter end. They felt certain of victory as they had every right to feel, and some of the young men were sufficiently intelligent to know that such an outrage would not stand the test of the courts. Our women were praying that these men would vindicate the womanhood of the race. But, to the surprise of everybody, when the cases were called these young men felt that it would be more honorable to admit that they thought they were gambling, so they submitted their cases and paid the cost. Moral cowards. Unworthy to be called men. A disgrace to the race to which they belong. Oh, for men of courage! Men who will die for the right! Men whom the women of our race can feel will protect them even with the shedding of their last drop of blood! EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville, Tenn., a prominent physician, is a candidate for The A. M. E. Review editorship. Dr. Roman is one of the scholarly men of the race. An orator, a writer, and a deep thinker. We would like to see him seated at the editorial tripod. There certainly cannot be found any more able man in his church for the place.—The Alabama Index. ENTERTAINED IN HONOR OF MRS. BOOKER. Mrs. W.

Gaines, the enterprising pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, this city, who brought the Tuskegee Student Brass Band here last May has astill greater treat for the citizens of Nashville.

Rev. H. B. Parks, of Chicago, Ill., have been invited to make opening addresses. Go to 410 Cedar Street, People's Bank and get some tickets and go to work now. Who Will It Benefit?

The person selling the most tickets over three (300) hundred will get a one-hundred-dollar diamond bracelet or a $100 gold watch, or a $75 in gold. Admission The admission is so cheap it is puzzling to see how the management will realize anything for their trouble. The price is only 25 cents for six nights; that is, one ticket will admit you six nights. No ticket for less than 25 cents. If you go every night it is 25 cents, if you go one night it is 25 cents. But when you readof what will be there you will say it should be one dollar. What Will Be There? 1. Six Brass Bands have been invited to contest for $25 in gold.

It is this: Mr. Devels, of Cincinnati, Ohio, will be here with an iron cage 40 feet high, and he will ride on the perpendicular walls of that cage from bottom to top and from top to bottom every night, while fire will be streaming down its sides from the top, as though it was boiling from a pot. This Act has been secured at a great cost. This is the only Act of its kind on the American continent lar Street, People's kets and go to w today, and he has never performed for colored people but once before, and that was in Baltimore. It has never been seen in Nashville. This one "Act" alone has drawn great crowds for one and two weeks at a time in such places as New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Pa., ansas City, St. Louis and quite a number of other places of note, and always received three hundred ($300) dollars per week for his services. We know thousands of white people will be out to see this, as well as colored. It is worth at least one dollar to see this one "Act" besides the other features. The Date Some say it is too late. Well, yes it is a little late. It was first announced to be October 16th, but the date was changed to October 23rd, because these great attractions could not be secured until the 23rd. Better late than never. Now, secure tickets and begin to sell. You cant lose if you do not win the prize. Every person who sells tickets must report not later than 5 p. m. October 23, or they will not get any commission or prize. Some ladies are selling now. Some of the lodges and churches have put in orders for tickets already. The Electric Company has promised to light the park as bright as they can. We forgot to say there will be a contest drill between the Patriarch Encampment of Odd Fellows for a $25 purse. So you see this will be something Nashville has never seen or had. Odd Fellows, Pythians, soldiers and brass bands from different parts of the state will be here, besides one of the best carnival shows ever seen in the city and the "Cage of Death," the finest free "Act" in the Union. Get your tickets. Don't say you can't. As long as you say that you will not, and the world moves with those who have faith in themselves and say they will. You can if you will. Go at it. Great men and women are those who attempt great things. You will never do anything worth while if you never try.

When Canada’s population shall have become sufficiently numerous enough for Canada to have a national public opinion, the simplicity and unity of her constitutional ‘system will save her from the gravest of troubles which have beset us in the Past, are vexing us today, and are sure to cause us future storm and tempest. In Canada there never can be any NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1911. question over the power of her na- tional congress to pass any law to prevent the exploiting of her people by selfish interests on the one hand or to advance the welfare of Canada’s millions on the other hand. Think of the list of subjects on which we need national laws, because our State laws cannot or do not reach the evil, and yet over which, a certain type of American lawyer tells us, that our national Congress has no authority, no power. “Canada’s constitution furnishes no such refuge. The Canadian Parliament can pass any law which the welfare of the whole Canadian people requires. In short, it is for Canada’s people to determine what is best for them— their statesmen can give no “con- stitutional limitations” of any kind as an excuse for not writing the people's demands into law. This, combined with the most ef: fective of “recal)s,” which is the heart of Canada’s system of responsible party government, makes this new nation at once the most popular and national government on earth.—From “federalism in Canada and in_ the United States,” by Albert J. Beve ridge, in the American Review of Re views for October. WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A BOY SCOUT. + The Scout activities appeal to the boy because they include innumerable things which heroes of fiction and history have done. In the place of trying to force the boys to conform to the artificial ideas and standards of the adults, evolved by adults who lead artificial lives, we go to the boys themselves, find out the real things which interest them, the fundamental causes for their activities, the kind of men that make heroes for them, and then we endeavor to show them how théy can derive entertainment in nat- ural boyish ways; how they can emu- late the remarkable virtues of such real boy's heroes as the picturesque groups of remarkable persons develop- ed by the frontier, whom we call the Buckskin Knights—such men as Jona- than Chapman (Appleseed Johnny), a follower of Emanuel Swedenborg’s teachings; the daredevil Simon Ken- ton, a devout Methodist; the greatest scout that ever lived, Daniel Boone, of Quaker ancestors, whose whole life was influenced by the precepts of the Friends; the great pathfinder, Mar- quette, a priest of the Roman Catholic Church; Abraham Lincoln, a product of the frontier; George Washington, the foundation of whose remarkable character was built in the wilderness among the Buckskin men. These are real, genuine heroes, whose virtues our boys may safely copy. The boys by becoming Scouts have an opportunity to learn wooderaft, gain knowledge of birds and trees, learn the secrets of the woods, to swim, paddle a canoe and do many other things boys love to do. At all times they have over them a Scout: master, whose credentials have been approved and who is really their phy- sical, mental, and character trainer. He watches over them, and guides them in their play and their various activities, trains them in alertness, etelanee, and other Scout virtues. His aim is to turn out Sa self ‘reliant, alert, honest citizens/-From “The Boy Scouts of America,” by Dar ‘Beard, in the American Review of Reviews for October. | _—_— AMONG THE MAGAZINES. | in The MeClure’e Magazine.

WOMAN WOULD REMOVE BAN ON NEGRO NURSES. Be Left With Family of Patient. The Democrat has received a communication from Mrs. T. F. Rowlands, in which the writer criticises the action of the State Board of Nurse Examiners in refusing to grant nurses' certificates to colored persons. The communication, which is self-explanatory, follows: Editor of Democrat: "Dear Sir—Will you kindly permit a sojourner space in which to say a few words about a matter that concerns all equally? "The Nashville Banner of September 19th published an article concern in the refusal of the State Board to grant certificates to colored nurses; while this association may be, as is averred, doing great work, they are fifty years behind twentieth century progression in this. The claim that they refused because no examining board of any Southern State has ever granted such a license to a colored person, will not bear analysis, and indicates lack of progress. As a modern people, we are thankful that we are not holding to the same beliefs and views of our forbears Their views answered for their purposes in their day, but cannot be applied to modern life successfully, as every advanced thinker will agree. "The writer has traveled over a good portion of the United States and has known many persons who preferred, intelligent person give satisfactory reasons why the white employer may not have the privilege of engaging the services of a colored nurse who can show a properly endorsed certificate which will stand comparison with the certificates issued to a white nurse, provided said colored person can show that her knowledge is equal to that of the white nurse? "Whether the board desires to become involved in a controversy or not, is not the question at issue, and if they court publicity by taking this stand, it follows they must be broad-minded enough to hear the views of those who have a different perspective. "We who are the superior race, by accident of birth, have much to learn of universal brotherhood, and the fact of superiority of race makes it incumbent upon us to discharge our full duty to the more unfortunate brethren, as the greatest of all Masters enjoined upon when he said: 'For as much as ye do unto the least of these, ye have done it unto me.'

The growing importance of Nashville as a financial as well as a commercial center is strikingly shown in the increasing volume of insurance business and the Life and Casualty Insurance of Tennessee, with home office in Nashville, as a total organization, backed by sound and reliable business men, which is doing a great deal to advance the prestige of Nashville, as well as for the benefit of the South, by keeping in the South the money paid out for premiums. Organized and incorporated in September, 1903, this company has operated from the start along sound and conservative methods, by which it has steadily gained in the favor of the public and is now well known as one of the strongest companies in the South. The premiums are low, and are collected in small amounts weekly, thus giving the policyholder every possible opportunity to be prepared for sickness, accident and death. The marvelous growth of the company shows that they have built on a firm foundation, that the policy contracts are liberal and attractive, and that the public is appreciative of the advantages of this strong Southern company. A. M. Burton, President of the Company, is one of the best known industrial insurance men in Tennessee and is thoroughly conversant with every feature of this class of insurance. Aggressive and conservative, he had administered the duties of his office in an able, efficient and tactful manner. 5,000 yards standard brands of calico, 4 1-2 cents per yard at J. H.
