BRAVE THE WEATHER FOR ANNUAL EVENT.
Many Assemble At Odd Fellows' Hall
Given to Stimulate Business—Many Stockholders Meet for the First Time—Rev. Taylor Toastmaster —Timely Remarks by the Speakers—Report Read and Stock Boosted.
Magnificent in every detail was the first annual banquet given by the stockholders of the One Cent Savings Bank of this city on last Thursday night. In keeping with the vote taken at the annual meeting in January, which requested that immediate arrangements be made by which as many as possible of the stockholders and their friends might sit around the festal board, the banquet was planned and carried out. The committee that had charge of the preparation got in touch through correspondence and personally with every stockholder and without exception every one was in sympathy with the idea. The feast was spread at the Odd Fellows' Auditorium, and notwithstanding the torents of rain that fell all day Thursday, and lasting up until 10:30 o'clock Thursday night, it did not serve to dampen the enthusiasm of the list of guests, including stockholders and their friends. The eatables that were served, while not elaborate, were abundant and enjoyable.
The banquet was given for the purpose of introducing the stockholders to one another and for creating more interest among the citizens in the institution which can rightfully boast of being the oldest bank in Tennessee, as well as a concern that has served to give the Negroes of Nashville rating in the financial world. The idea foremost in the minds of the stockholders as they began to gather, was how much of the capital stock would be disposed of at the meeting. But this was only one of the principal issues that, like a magnet, had drawn the stockholders together for this occasion. It was remarkable to observe the friendly and cordial relations that existed between the humbleest and the most exalted among those present. A number who could not attend sent letters and telegrams to the committee assuring them that they were in hearty sympathy with the movement. A program that had been arranged for the occasion was carried out as the enjoyment the feast of good things prepared for them. The decorations of the hall were filling for the occasion, be evergreens and national colors. Six waiters, under the able direction of the head waiter, stood at the guests. It was 9:30 o'clock when Presston Taylor, chairman of the Executive Committee, asked that the social chat and conversation cease and that we bow our heads and listen to the invocation by Rev. J. Davenport Bushell. Then, as toastmaster, Mr. Taylor gave in a few choice words the purpose of the banquet. The secretary of the committee, Henry Allen Boyd, read a report embracing stockholders who had cheerfully contributed from their personal means for the support of the banquet, and letters with telegrams from C. A. Dickson, of Buffalo, and Wm. Beckham. At this point the president of the bank, R. H. Boyd, who had just returned from Central America, made a report on the line of the one rendered at the annual meeting. The assistant cashier, Mr. C. N. Langton, read a report of the bank showing the standing at the close of business December 31, 1911, and January 31, 1912. Next came the auditing committee, consisting of Prof. W. S. Thompson, Mr. L. Landers and Dr. C. V. Roman. The committee's report was read by Prof. Thompson.
The following responded to toasts: How the Bank Looks to the Register of the United States Treasury, by Hon. J. C. Napier, who, as register of the United States Treasury, proved conclusively through his splendid remarks that the bank loomed up like the Alps from the distance and that it was a reality that the institution located here in Nashville was seen by financiers as well as ordinary laborers, as a safe and sound corporation. "The Bank as the People See It." By Rev. J. Davenport Bushell, the pastor of the First Baptist Church, East Nashville; "The Bank as a Business Institution," by J. W. Grant, attorney at law, who is first vice president; "The Bank as an Investment," by W. H. Oden, a real estate agent and a director; "What the Bank Has Done for the People," by Dr. C. V. Roman, a stockholder and a prominent candidate for the editorship of the A. M. E. Review; "The Bank as a Friendly Institution," was responded to by Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church,

FARMER BOYS HOLD MEETING
FARMER BOYS HOLD MEETING
GATHERING AT NORMAL WITH MR. CARR.
Purpose to Organize a Corn Club—There from All Parts of County—Meet Again Saturday.
About twenty boys from all parts of Davidson County, ranging in ages from 12 to 16, met with Mr. Ben Carr, Superintendent of Industries of State Modern School, for the purpose of organizing a Boys' Corn Club. The meeting was held last Saturday morning on the school campus. The boys were full of enthusiasm and are eager to perfect their organization, which Mr Carr plans to do Saturday morning, March 23. The object of this club is to teach the boys industry and how to get the fullest benefit of the soil. It will be remembered that a convention of boys was held at the State Capitol last year and their exhibit of corn has been the talk of the state ever since. Mr. Carr has conceived the idea that it would be a grand thing to encourage the Negro boys of Davidson County and Tennessee to engage in this work. As a result he has enlisted the aid of Capt. Peck, Superintendent of the Agricultural Department of the State, and County Superintendent of Education. They willingly agreed to aid in whatever way that they could in making the club a success. The Negro men of Davidson County will also be asked to aid these boys in the effort to make good citizens and industrious farmers.
The plans have not been fully outlined as yet, but on next Saturday morning an address will be issued to the public calling upon the boys to make the organization a success. One boy was present at the meeting who said he had a billy goat and he guaranteed Mr. Carr that he would cultivate one acre of land with his goat and would bring as fine corn to the exhibit as any boy in the county. He was in earnest and is determined to show what a boy and a goat can do. Mr. Carr hopes to be able to help the boys in some way and if he can do so it is thought he will allot to a few a small plot of land on the school farm. He is of the opinion that this would encourage other boys to greater endeavor and that much can be accomplished in that way. At the meeting Saturday morning it is expected that a larger number of boys will be present and also a number of citizens to help plan the organization and start it off in good condition.
ROGER WILLIAMS SHUTS OUT
MEHARRY. MEDS
Roger Williams hard aggregation of ball tossers met the Meharry Medical College bunch on the former's diamond and shut them out by a score of 5 to 0. Conscious of the great record made by the Roger boys last year, the Meharrites came out upon the field feeling that their doom was fixed and verily it was. Meharry shone brilliantly in spots, but the heavy seige of the purple and white blighted their hopes and there was nothing doing. The game is not to be regarded particularly as a championship game, for Meharry claims not to be in any playing form inasmuch as they did not have uniforms and yet their intents were just as full of fervor as pennant winners. Buford for Roger Williams pitched great ball; he gave a beautiful exhibition of a few of the many tricks he has stored away in his heaving wing. Captain Branham followed with his usual first-class article of pitching ability. In short, Roger Williams showed ability in offense as well as defence. Atwood for Meharry pitched a steady game, but his teammates were unable to connect with Buford's in-shots. Roger will meet Walden Saturday, March 23rd, at Walden for the first real championship game of the season.
GOLDEN JUBILEE AT ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY.
On Sunday, Roger Williams University will celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society's work among the Negroes of the United States. It is to be a great event. Some of the prominent speakers who will take part in the exercises which are to be held at 2:30 o'clock are: Dr Weaver, Miss Eaton, who is connected with the Fireside School. Drs. Boyd, Clarke, Ellington, Hayes and Prof. Burrus.
Mr. A. N. Johnson, proprietor of the Majestic Theatre, Prof. J. D. Crenshaw, editor of the National Baptist Union-Review, Dr. J. T. Wilson, proprietor of Wilson Infirmary, and Rev. W. L. Craft, Field Secretary of the Baptist Young People's Union Board. At the close of these toasts the master of ceremonies stated that the secretary would read a list of the people and the amount of stock subscribed. He said that stock had been purchased in quantities of from one to two hundred shares, totaling $5,875,000. Great was the rejoicing when the total was mentioned. Among the subscribers were men who invested for their children whose ages ranged from one to fourteen years. It was 11:30 o'clock before they began to depart for their homes.

IDEAL LOCATION ON MAURY STREET.
Clubs of City Lending Substantial Aid—Two Hundred Dollars First Payment—Persistent Campaign Is Being Made—Club Plans to Open as Soon as Payments Are Completed.
The February meeting of Phyllis Wheatley Club was with Mrs. C. F. Jones, 606 Sixth avenue, South. A number of new members were received and many applications for membership were presented. Reports from various committees were made. Miss Sophia A. Jackson reported from her entertainment $16.00. She was roundly applauded.
This was the annual election, and the following officers were elected: President, Mrs. G. L. Jackson; Vice President, Mrs. Ellen Tyree; Secretary, Mrs. J. H. Hale; Assistant Secretary, Miss A. K. Davis; Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. G. E. Haynes; Treasurer, Mrs. Harriet Campbell; Club Journalist, Miss Sophia A. Jackson. Collection for the evening, $48.38.
The club is now buying a home, 48 Maury street, that it may be able to alleviate some of the conditions of poor old women, struggling working girls, many of whom come to the city seeking work and find no suitable place to stay until work can be had, and dependent children. This is the beginning of a work that is destined to grow until the fortunate and suffering people are lifted to a higher plane. The club paid $200 cash on the property and is meeting payments of $15 monthly. Assurance is given that the East Nashville Dramatic Club will take up the next note. Several clubs have sent greetings to the Phyllis Wheatley and say that their clubs will aid in paying for the home. One club has agreed to take up two notes. Effort is being put forth to rally all forces and pay for the home as quickly as possible, so as to open for work.
The Phyllis Wheatley Club is rightly styled the pioneer club, as it has worked faithfully for more than fifteen years trying to help in every way possible the poor and unfortunate. At the time of its organization it was the only club of its kind and for many years thereafter.
The next meeting will be held Thursday, March 28, at 3 o'clock at the residence of Mrs. Cage Cannon, on Woods street, near Ewing avenue.

The National Co-operative Club gave a banquet Monday night, at Young's Hotel, in honor of their membership contest, which closed March 13th. The Hotel was decorated with their colors, green and white. Among the speakers were Hon. J. C. Napier, Prof. John Work and R. L. Mayfield and President January. Mr. January stated the great purpose of the organization. The president's speech follows:
Mr. Toastmaster, Ladies, Gentlemen and Fellow Clubmen:

After the president spoke, Mr. T. Clay Moore, the toastmaster, called upon the rest of the officers to say something. A five-course menu was served, and cigars. Music was the
NEGRO CHILDREN SEE ART EXHIBIT
NEGRO CHILDREN SEE ART EXHIBIT
GREAT CROWDS MONDAY, TUES. WED.
Unfortunate Little Ones Looked After
Citizens Contributed Liberally for Their Benefit—Teachers Make the Campaign for Funds—One Thousand, One Hundred and Twelve Provided for Many Parents Visit.
When the Turner Art Exhibit closed at the Carnegie Library this week, where they have been exhibiting a rare collection of high-class paintings and nice pictures, it was estimated that about four thousand Negro children had taken advantage of the opportunity to see what has been heralded as one of the finest collections of pictures ever put on exhibition in this city. Pictures were seen by all classes of children. For once Nashville went on record as being able to provide for those who had no one to provide for them. The spirit of sweet charity filled the atmosphere, so much so that organized committees and solicitors from the twelve public schools with their entire faculty from the primary teacher up to the principal, made a whirlwind campaign in the interest of the unfortunate little ones who had no one to carry them to see the art pictures. The result was that every Negro child in the city schools was provided with a ticket, which enabled them to the great Turner Art Exhibit. It was stated Tuesday that the solicitors succeeded in getting money enough to carry one thousand one hundred and twelve children there while the total attendance in the twelve schools was about four thousand, hence the supervisor of these twelve schools, Dr J. P. Crawford; the principal of the high school, Dr F. G. Smith, and the principals and teachers of all the schools in the city were unanimous in their opinion that not a child had been overlooked neglected or left at home. They visited the Carnegie Library by classes, and it is said that their deportment was superb and that they took much interest in studying the pictures and picking out the fine pieces of art work. In the report of the various committees it was noticed that some of the business firms of the city had been extremely liberal in contributing. One firm is reported to have contributed enough to send 80 children to the exhibit. The adults were also much in evidence throughout the time allotted. There was some talk of extending the time, but the request came too late to get the news out to the people.
RALLY AT ST. LUKE'S A. M. E. CHURCH.
Sunday, March 10, 1912, was the day set for a rally at St. Luke A. M. E. Church. The sun rose in his great brightness. At 9:30 o'clock the Sunday-school convened with 31 pupils present. The lesson was taught with great precision. Collection 47 cents. At 11:30 o'clock a m. Rev. Tyree White ascended the pulpit and took for a text St. Luke 1:79, "To give light to them that sit in darkness," subject, "The light shone out of darkness."

STUDENTS WANT DOCTOR JONES
TURNER PUPILS REGRET TO LOSE HIM.
Favor His Election as Editor, Though
—Strong for Him to Be Made
Both—School Prospers.
In order that the general public may understand more thoroughly just how the students of Turner Normal College look upon their President, who is now Tennessee's choice for Editor of the Southern Christian Recorder, we, representatives of the student body, state these facts: Some time ago a meeting was held among some of the students, and a petition was sent to the president of the Board of Trustees, praying that he would try to arrange matters so that Dr. Jones could in some way still preside over the school even if he should be elected to the editorship of the Southern Christian Recorder.
It is a well-known fact that this institution has grown and prospered under his administration as it has never grown before hand; and the growth would have been much greater had there been greater accommodations. All of the rooms have been well filled each year, since the boarding department opened under his administration five years ago. At present the rooms are so crowded that no more students can be admitted, and the growth of the school will naturally be retarded until further arrangements for room can be made.
When we compare the conditions of the institution when Dr. Jones became president, with the present conditions, one can readily see the great work he has done.
We are aware of the fact that he is able to give the race the best of service as editor of a paper of this kind, for it is known through the whole country by the reading class, that he possesses that talent which is not found in every educated man. More than this, he is well acquainted with the conditions of the Negro race in the South, and is willing to faithfully do his part in making such improvements that are needed most. But the students feel that a change of the president will mean no good to the institution, and if it could be possible they would be glad to see Dr. Jones serve the race in both capacities.

MISS WAYTES AT FISK UNIVER
SITY.
Miss A. L. T. Waytes, ex-pastor of the Shiloh Baptist Church, of West Medford, Mass., and Bible student of the Moody Bible Institute, addressed the Y. W. C. A. of Fisk University Sunday morning at 9 a.m. There was a large number of young women present to greet the speaker and several teachers. Among them were Mrs. Gates and the Matron. The subject discussed was "The sufficiency of the Gospel to meet the wants of man." Miss Waytes spoke on the following outlines: (1) The Kingdom of "God is not in mere eating and drinking. (2) Does the religion of the Lord Jesus pay, and does it satisfy the longing of the soul?" Said the speaker:
"Christ was first presented as the Son of man; second as the Son of God; third, as the Savior of the world. Many of the divine realities were discussed in minute detail." The speaker fully convinced all that it was impossible to please God with out real service and to enjoy life was to have Christ as the supreme ruler of the soul. She also addressed the students of Roger Williams University on the leading topics of the day. Miss Waytes is conducting gospel meetings at the Scovel Street A. M. E. Church this week. The past week twelve were added to the church.
WILL ORGANIZE ROOSEVELT
BOOSTING CLUB
Hon. P. F. Hill, of this city, has been requested by Col. Theodore Roosevelt's admirers to organize a Roosevelt's Presidential Boosting Club of colored republicans, who believe in the principles of the old republican party of Lincoln and Charles Sumner, Mr. Hill has agreed to do so, and will take the names of one hundred men, who will be furnished with gorgous Roosevelt badges. Arrangements will be made to carry the entire membership of the club to the Republican Convention that will meet in Chicago the 18th of June, 1912.
The first meeting of the club will be held at the U. B. F. hall, at 413 1-2 Fourth avenue, North, Friday night, April 5.

Christian Living—No Life
Complete Without It.
Dr. Morgan, Dean of Dental College
of Vanderbilt University, speaking to
the dental students of Meharry, gives
some needed advice. After lecturing
at considerable length on the vital
technicalities of the profession, he
said in general:
"I appear before you somewhat embarrassed at such a flowery introduction. I did not come to you to display a very great amount of knowledge, but, like yourselves, I am still an humble student, striving to find the hidden truths of science it is a pleasure, gentlemen, to be here and to know that you are sufficiently interested to leave for a few moments the tasks which your professors set for you, to come here and listen to a stranger speak. I wish, first of all, to congratulate you upon your having chosen the profession of Dentistry; for it ranks among the most useful of human endeavors. It offers to the industrious man fitting opportunities for rendering to his fellowmen as high service as any other calling does. It is an inviting field, because when you have thoroughly qualified yourselves and learned those things which your patients most expect of you, it promises an ample reward. Whatever you may gain from your profession in the way of material good must come to you, not as so many dollars earned, but as a reward for so much service rendered. It is to those who prepare themselves most efficiently that the reward will come, and does come, and you cannot prevent its coming. If you fail to recognize this important principle in the preparation for your professional life while here in school, when you go from here you will meet disappointment and disgust, and finally sink down to the bottom and flow out to some other occupation. The world is always willing to recognize the man who is qualified. * * * *
"You must have a clear notion of what and why you are here. Let me say to you, young men, if you are ever to be deputies of your profession, in all that that sentence means, you have got to consecrate your life to it. You cannot get it out of books alone. You must study, then delve down into it, turn it over and over in your minds, and debate with yourselves every one of these problems as if you were in a contest. You must be dreaming over these things and working out these problems of science. Some one has said: 'Genius is 99 per cent labor.' I say, you must have in addition to that just as much or more common sense to go with it, and enthusiasm and ambition—enthusiasm in your work and ambition to proper pursue your profession. * * * *
"You are entering the profession at a time when we are in possession of more science than at any other time. If you will apply yourselves more earnestly on these subjects which are of vital importance to you, then my object will have been accomplished.
"And let me say to you, now as I may not have the opportunity to meet you again, first of all, if you are going to succeed in the world as dentists, you must make your peace with God. No man can walk alone. With His help you double your strength to resist the wrong; yop double your will to do the right. With His help visions will come that will enable you to solve the difficulties of life that threaten to destroy you. Without if all is dark; there is no nope."

MASON NOTES.
A goodly number of the pea planters around Mason have not as yet panted on account of the prolongation of the rain. Miss Nannle C. Burchet has returned from a week's visit to her relatives near Covington, Tenn. Mrs. Amanda Hudson, sister of Mrs. F. D. Ruffin, who came from Colllerville, her home, at a swift notice to see Dr. B. L. Ruffin, her nephew, has returned home. A fire visited our town last week and destroyed the city shoe shop, owned and steered by J. E. Burnett, and threatened to burn the city barber shop and livery stable owned by Mr. Henry Porter, which were about 100 feet from the burning building. Good work by both white and colored saved the destruction of the two buildings. Mr. Burnett slept in the rear end of the shop, and his working apartment was in front. He said he made fire in the stove in the shoe shop apartment and stepped out to look after some business up town and before returning he received a notice or message that his shop was on fire. It is supposed that it ignited from the stove. There were only a few things saved. No insurance on building. Mr. J. Campbell (white), the contractor of Humboldt, tenn., in the city last week conferring with Rev. P. H. Ruffin on a twin story construction building, on which work was to have been begun on the lst of March, but on account of the inclement weather the work was postured until the middle of this month. This building is estimated to cost between $5,000 and $6,000. Rev. P. H. Ruffin has not given out the architectural plans and cost. Rev. Robert Jones, one of our best citizens and land owners, handed in his subscription for six months for the Globe. Mrs. Mary Burchett, wife of Mr. Mordecai Burchett, was struck en with paralysis of the brain last week while cooking. She died last Monday morning at 4 o'clock. We sympathize with the bereaved family. Dr. B. L. Ruffin is yet in our city in search of health. He is doing fairly well at this time. Mr. Daniel Taylor, of Memphis, tenn., was out last Monday evening to see Dr. B. L. Ruffin. Mr. A. Stewart, who has here before been mentioned as being sick is worse. Dr. D. W. Fields, of Memphis, was out to see Dr. B. L. Ruffin last week. Rev. J. M. Moody, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, is very slick. It has been reported that he was loosing his mind. Several visitors were out to see Dr. B. L. Ruffin last Sunday. Rev. Thomas, of Memphis, made a visit to see Dr. Ruffin last Sunday. Rev. Thomas preacher last Sunday morning at Alexander Chapel M. E. Church.

Miss Frances Boyd, of Nashville, teacher of our school, closed a successful term and leaves for home soon. Being so favorably impressed with the instruction of Miss Boyd, we had her to teach a month's subscription school, and hope that she will return in the summer. En route home Miss Boyd will stop at Linden to spend a few days with Miss Willa Hurt, a graduate of Walden University, who is teaching school there. We all enjoy reading the Globe.

Mr. David Fuggette, a brother of Mrs. Shoffner and Miss Tilman, accompanied them to the City of Rocks. I like the Nashville Banner because it is a great paper, but I like the Nashville Globe better because it is a Negro paper, and to me it is greater, because it gives both sides of everything. I do not blame the white man for spending his money for the Banner and not the Globe, because the Banner comes from his side of the house, and I wish to God Mr. Editor, that every Negro reader would look well to the same.

The New Gas Franchise
On April 15th a special election will be held in this city for the ratification, by the people, of a franchise to the Nashville Gas and Heating Company. This franchise ordinance, passed by the City Council and approved by the Mayor, has been so framed as to protect and safeguard the interests of the city and the consumers of gas.
Within thirty days after the ratification of this ordinance, If it carries at the election to be held in April, there will be released in Nashville a large sum of money, approximately nearly two million dollars. This new capital will seek investment in various channels of enterprise and industry in the city and the development which necessarily follows will be greatly to the interest of all classes of people, and particularly to the working men.
The new company agrees to extend gas lines to all portions of the city and suburbs, in such a way as to give to all who may desire to have it, gas for lighting and fuel purposes. The added revenue to the city from this enterprise will bring about the building of new streets and the improvement of those that are already established. In all of the work and development which comes from the new company, the laboring classes will be among the greatest and most direct beneficiaries. A vote for the Gas Franchise is a vote for progress, which is always to the best interest of any city.
Crutcher's New Store.
The Negroes of Nashville have just cause to be proud of D. W. Crutcher's new gents' furnishing store. At the opening on the 14th several hundred people braved a cold rain to peep in on this young man and to express to him their congratulations. This in itself should encourage Mr. Crutcher; and doubtless it did, for the approval of the people is the strongest testimony one can have. Mr. Crutcher is a product of Nashville. He has lived here all of his life. He is well-known and is highly respected. No one has left him a legacy with which to start a business, and the effort he is putting forth is the result of the strictest economy and a keen insight to business.
His store is as neat and as orderly as any in the city, and his goods are of standard brands. There is no excuse for Negro men of this city to go into any furnishing store where they are not treated with the utmost courtesy, for all of their wants can be supplied by this young man. He thoroughly understands the business he is conducting, and delights to wait on his customers which he does with Chesterfield politeness.
Aside from this, the opportunity presents itself for the Negroes of Nashville to add another strong business concern to those already operated here. It means that several young men can have employment as clerks, and that the race can be strengthened in the commercial world. It is up to the Negroes of Nashville to make this store a success. We believe they will, for we have always had the utmost confidence in the people, and it has been proven in more than one instance that Negroes will support enterprises conducted by Negroes when they can get value received. We have always contended that no one should expect more than that; for when a people who are poor are asked to pay the same price for the necessities of life as is paid by the well-to-do, they cannot be expected to pay a higher price to anyone because of racial ties or friendship. Mr. Crutcher sells his goods at the same prices at which they can be bought at any store in our city. He meets every requirement and is deserving of a liberal support which we believe he will receive.
The Turner Art Exhibit which was shown Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week at the Carnegie Library for the benefit of the Negro school children was a grand affair. Pictures were exhibited there from all parts of the world and by the master painters. Every child who visited the exhibit was benefited as were also the grown up people, for many had never seen such paintings. It is commendable that the Pearl High School students received a very high compliment from the custodian of the Library building in that it was stated that their orderliness and manners were such as to attract special attention.
The arrangement perfected by the Public School authorities in this exhibit will be of incalculable value to the school children of Nashville. It shows the interest that the Superintendent and the Board of Education are taking in all of the children, and it means that Nashville will grow better; as all are made to understand that their welfare is receiving consideration at the hands of the administrators of public affairs.
Study of the Tropics.
We begin in our this week's issue a story of conditions in Panama and Costa Rica by Dr. R. H. Boyd, who has recently returned from a visit to those countries. Dr. Boyd is a close observer and a logical reasoner, and his views on this subject will be interesting.
An attempt is being made to trace a relationship between the Hensons of North and South Pole fame. Is it possible that the white man can't keep the "nigger" out of his wood pile.
The presidential aspirants have held the center of the stage for sometime, but Hans Wagner, Hub Purdue, Ty Cobb and Marty O'Toole have taken their jobs.
If the weather man continues to hand out as balmy days as we have had the first of this week the coal miners may strike and behang.
NASHVILLE TO TUSKEGEE.
Arrangements have been made for a special train to leave Nashville, Tuesday night, June 4th, to attend the Sunday-School Congress, which is to be held at Tuskegee. The plans as stated by the Secretary of the Congress were: that people living north and west of Nashville, would meet here Tuesday and Tuesday night, to make up the special train consisting of day coaches and sleepers which would go through to Tuskegee without change.
Already promises have reached the city from parties in Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas that they will cheerfully join the Nashville people in making up this special train to the Congress. There will be nearly 80 delegates out of Nashville, which will be a sufficient number to fill two day coaches and three sleepers.
The route to the Congress will be over the L. & N. to Montgomery; the Atlanta and West Point to Tuskegee and the Tuskegee Railroad to Tuskegee Institute. It is expected that stop over privileges will be given the delegates in Nashville, so that they may have the opportunity to see the plant of the National Baptist Publishing Board.
GONE TO BEST.
On Tuesday, March 12, just after the midnight hour, death entered the home of Mrs. Pinnie Morton, at 1029 Ivy street and the freed spirit of Hattie Duke took its flight to that home of the soul where God and angels dwell.
Hattie Duke, the daughter of Mr. George Duke and adopted daughter of Mrs. Pinnie Morton, was born November 22nd, 1905. She was converted and joined the Spruce Street Baptist Church in March, 1907, and remained a consistent Christian until the time of her death. She loved her church with her whole heart and as never happier than when engaged in its service; a'ways performing the duties assigned her with such cheerfulness as to impress every one that she truly delighted in the work of the Master
Her sweet disposition won for her the love and respect of all with whom she came in contact. Indeed, to know her was to love her and admire her, for her highest ambition was to make others happy, regardless of any sacrifice it might cost her. Thus she lived a life of trust unselfishness, ever trying to brighten the pathway of all within her influence.
For more than eighteen weeks Hattie was confined to her room, suffering at times intense pain, but through it all she was kind, patient and loving. Even in hours of her most acute suffering she endeavored to be cheerful, for the sake of those around her. She often spoke of her loved ones in heaven and expressed the desire to go and be with them. A few days before she passed away, she said to the writer: "Yes, I know you will miss me; but I am so tired, I long to go where Jesus is and be at rest."
She has gone to rest—her heavenly rest—where there is no more pain nor death, and where all tears are wiped away; where she will spend no more restless nights of suffering, but where all is bright and happy, in that 'and of unending light and peace. No more will her sweet voice be heard in the choral class of her church, but she has gone to join the angelic choir, where her voice shall mingle with the redeemed of the Lord in anthens of praise to the God she loved, through all eternity.
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1912.
Hattie leaves a father, a devoted mother, a loving sister, and a host of relatives and friends to mourn their loss, which is her eternal gain; but we mourn not as those who have no hope, for it is our blissful hope to meet here again, where no parting words are spoken.

Ohio. Mrs. Dabney was very favorably impressed with the South. Dr. S. Jefferson, our popular dentist, and his family had an exciting experience last week, when their dog, Sidney, went mad and started on a wild rampage. Fortunately his condition was discovered before he got into the house, and the doctor, after closing every door tried his marksmanship on the raging canine. Three bullets were put into him with no more effect than to cause him to jump the fence and start up the street, attacking whomsoever he met. Many persons had narrow escapes from his poisonous teeth but with police and neighbors chasing him he was finally rounded up and five more shots in his body end ed his wild career. Remember Wesley Chapel's great rally to-morrow, when Bishop C. H. Phillips, M. D. D. D., will preach in the morning and Rev. S. W. Toles, of St. John Baptist Church, at 3 o'clock. All of the churches are expected to be present in the afternoon, and a great time is anticipated.
Rev. Wilson S. Pettus Passes Away.
After a lingering illness of several months, the Rev. Wilson S. Pettus, pastor of Spring Hill and Mt. Lebanon Baptist Churches, near this city, passed to his final rest last Sunday morning about nine o'clock. He has pastored Spring Hill for nine years and Mt. Lebanon for seven years, and was very popular with the people of the entire community. His funeral was held at Mt. Olive Baptist Church last Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock, and long before the hour announced, the church was overflowed with those desiring to pay their last tribute of respect to a worthy minister. In fact, there were many more people outside the building than could possible get on the inside. The Masonic fraternity had charge of the remains. The sermon was preached by Rev. Robert Barker in a very able manner from Rev. 21: 4. The pastor, Rev. E. M. Seymour and Rev. P. D. Dennis, of Guthrie Ky., also spoke. Resolutions from the Baptist Minister's Alliance were read by Prof. Carr. The floral offerings were many and appropriate. More than a score of ministers were present.
Death of Miss Leota Firse.
Again, the angel of Death has visited our city, taking this time one of our most popular young ladies
in the person of Miss Leola I. Firse, a teacher in the public schools, who passed to her final reward last Sunday, the 17th, about 9 o'clock p. Miss Leola was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Firse, who are numbered with our most substantial and beloved citizens, and in the sad beaement that has come to them in the loss of their charming daughter, they have the tenderest sympathy of hundreds of friends, both white and colored. For several months the deceased had been in failing health and her many friends began to fear that dread monster, tuberculosis, was fastening his colds about her. But she made a brave fight and continued at her post until seven weeks ago. Throughout her illness she was cheerful and manifested that same sweet disposition which had won the hearts of all who knew her, even from early childhood. The funeral services which were held at St. Peters A.M.E. Church on Wednesday at 2 o'clock were attended by a great concourse of people, largely overflowing the large auditorium of St. Peters. There were the teachers of the public school in a body; the school Board and many other white friends occupied reserved seats. Miss Leola's Sunday-school class also had their place, and the choir with which she had sung so sweetly in their places with Leola's neat seat beautifully draped in white. It was only with sobs and tears that they tried to sing some of the songs she loved so well. The pastor, Rev. D. A. Graham preached the sermon, and Rev. S. L. Harris, of Fifth Ward Church, paid a loving tribute to the deceased. Resolutions were read from the school teachers, the Sunday-school and the choir. The floral offerings were elaborate and varied. Undertaker Dixon is to be congratulated upon the excellent manner in which the body was preserved from Sunday until Wednesday, and his polished manner of handling the crowd.

THE TURNER ART EXHIBIT
The teachers of the public schools feel grateful to the citizens and friends for the assistance they rendered in making The Turner Art Exhibit a success. The exhibit gave the children of Nashville a chance to see the reproductions of some of the greatest pictures in the world. All of the children have read of Rosa Bonhuer, "The Little French Girl," but few of them had seen the "Horse Fair," "The Oxen Plowing," "Shepherd and Flock," "The Angelus and The Gleaners," painted by Millet, the artist, who told his father that when he was grown he meant to make pictures of men, and on reaching manhood he followed out his early ideas in a manner unapproached by other artists; for he painted men and women under the burden of heavy toll—painted them not as individuals, but rather as types of the soil, and through all of his work we hear the 'cry of the earth.'
"Christ and the Doctora," by Hotman, ranks as a masterpiece of modern art. Lanser, "The Dog Boy's" pictures were much admired. "Washington at Dorchester Heights," by Stuart. This artist goes down in history as being one of the greatest portrait painters that ever lived, having no equal in America. "Mona Lisa," by Vinci, was exhibited. This beautiful picture was stolen last year, and is said to be somewhere in America. "Delphic Sibyl" and Prohp Jeremiah, by Michelangelo, were the only pictures in Fresco painting. Michelangelo was one of the greatest masters the world has ever known, whether considered as a painter, a sculptor or an architect. The last but by no means the least of these wonderful pictures comes "Sistine Madonna," by Raphael. This great masterpiece represents a vision showing the Virgin and her child standing on the clouds and surrounded by angels.
MISS UNA JOHNSON SUCCUMBS.

SPRING HILL NOTES
Filton, Northville, Globe
To Editor Nasaville Globe.
I take this opportunity to commend your paper. It comes nearer measuring up to the standard of distinguished journalism than any Negro paper published in the state since the war. While I am not personally acquainted with the editor, I am acquainted with a large number of its correspondents, and it is particularly noticeable that the best element of the race is attracted to the Globe by the profound brilliancy of its editor. Fill our town and the country with the Globe—it is doing a noble work. The Negro Board of Trade, The Women Insulted, The Western Delegation and Dr. Boyd's Visit to Panama, are highly commendable. I am greatly indebted to the editor for the publication of the marriage of Mr. Frank McLemore.

TO THE FARMERS OF TENNESSEE
By Capt. T. F. Peck, Commissioner of Agriculture.
We have talked to the boys on the farm and to their fathers and mothers. This week we want to talk to the farmers' daughters, and we want the farmers and their wives and sons to read this also, because for many centuries woman has not been given a chance to develop her true self. Now when she has her chance, a thrill of being free and able to do things is causing her, in some instances, to sacrifice the womanly—the God-given ability to do the work she was meant to do, because of this other extreme in the swinging of the pendulum. Girls should know their opportunities and appreciate their limitations, they should know the joy of real living, to exercise the satisfaction of being somebody worth while because they dare to do the thing they can do and do it so well that they are happy and content, never satisfied to stand still but always growing and improving. I would have the girl able to meet any emergency; learn to do anything and everything for the pleasure of knowing, from playing the piano to harnessing a horse; from painting a picture, if the opportunity offers, to making nutritious artistic loafs of bread; teaching a Sunday-school class, quieting an irritable child, telling a story or scrubbing a floor; more than this she should be able to do some one thing so well that if necessary she could face the world and make an honest living. Every girl should know the sweetness of independence and be sweet while she independent, as well as when dependent. It is said about the boy on the farm, but the girl on the farm is equally as important. The farm needs her and she the farm, for there the possibility of developing her best self is found. A mother once said, "there isn't much for the girl in the country, but to get married!" She did not say that there was very little in that for the girl if she was not ready for it, or if the man is not trained and true. However, we must grant the mother's assertion, for we must own that as long as humanity lives, so long will the instinct of mother's love and home making be in the heart of the normal woman. We would not, for a moment, have it otherwise, but my plea is for training long and well for those offices. We train for other professions if we expect any degree of perfection or success, so why not train the girls to qualify them to make successful home makers, wives and mothers? To do this well takes more brain and nerve and heart and muscle than any other profession. The home, its furnishings and decorations, takes artistic skill; the sandy part and general health takes the doctor. There is the place for
the cook and the seamstress, the economist, the moralist, statesman, comrade, lover, friend; all sorts of work for one woman, all sides of her nature to be developed. Instinct tells the bird how to build her nest and gather worms for its young, but it does not tell people how to build sanitary houses and bake wholesome bread. It does not snow people how to live economically, nor how to live together peacefully and help each other develop physically, mentally and morally. These are some of the things every girl (and boy) should know something about, also, how to value people and things at their real worth to know the genuine from the glitter. Politeness does not always stand for a principle, nor good clothes for honesty and industry. Parents were given children to train them for success. You say, why all this training? The proper man may never appear. It is my belief that he is somewhere waiting and in the world is one good home more or less because your dear girls are or are not ready. And what if the right man did die of fever or measles? The training will go. No sensible preparation is ever lost. There are so many fields open to girls these days and the mother was wrong when she was speaking of farmer girls. They have about the best chance there is to make good if they want to bad enough, and every farmer girl ought to want to make something of her life. True, there are some draw backs, but they merely try the metal that is in her make up. Overcoming difficulties is the best of all training. Because of the opportunities and demands of the present day woman, the girl must get as much education as possible. To stand the competition in the world she will need it and if she marries she will not want her husband to be as ashamed of her (nor will she want a husband she will be ashamed of). She will want to be his counsellor and companion and be able to make the most of her children. If she can not get the education she craves when young, she can save up and take a special course later. Some good women have worked in homes in their college town for board while pursuing their studies. Nothing stands in the way of a will power and good common sense. In almost every case where the father is living, the girl can depend upon him for sympathy, help and advice. The real father has his ambitions for the daughter and her best interest is always on his thoughts and plans and we know the mother will make any sacrifice; anything to promote the interest of and hoppshrddogtgdwm interest and happiness of her daugh

ter. The girl can contribute towards her school money by milking extra cows, by giving attention to poultry, by attending to a colony of bees, or she can have a plot of strawberries, or a plot of tomatoes. Where there is a will there is a way. She can become expert in canning fruits, in making jellies, for there is always a demand for home made stuff of that sort. Girls are making a success too of lunch and rest rooms, home decorating, special cooking, in the country in domestic science. Others in agriculture and forestry. Why not women farmers, if they love the work? No place can one be healthier and happier—near to nature and Nature's God. Here she learns the poetry of life, the harmony and beauty of living. Here she is removed from the distractions and demands of the city or town. Our girls want to remember that good health, good the shrdlo shrdl cmfwf cmfwf hrdl health, good morals and Christian charity are the base of all happiness and success, and without any one of which she is at a disadvantage. Let her guard her health. Plenty of pure water for drink and breathe rd pure water for drink and bath, live in the sunshine and breathe deep of the pure fresh air day and night. There is exercise enough on any farm. Let her watch her company and her thoughts. Know the comfort and culture of the Bible and as she can, become familiar with the poets and classics; read biographies and histories more than fiction. These are better company than cheap people. I always feel sorry for a family who leave the country and go to the town or the children to work in the factory. The monotony especially for the girls is demoralizing. The ceaseless grind from early till late every day. There is no time for the girl under such conditions to improve herself for better conditions. Girls, stay on the farm, if you have to work in your neighbor's kitchen to do it. Better the kitchen any time than the factory with its attendant evils. Stay there at least until you are able to take a position where you can develop your capabilities and live a life that is worth living.
During the Republican State Convention, which convened in this city last week, there were many distinguished members of the race present. One might name them from every section of the state, men of all professions, and men from the business walks of life who stand for much, men with reputations that no one would be ashamed of. There were several distinguished visitors who were given rare entertainment while visiting the capital of the state. A Mr. Robert Church, Jr., of the firm of Robert R. Church & Son, known to be one of the wealthiest Negroes in the entire South could easily lay claim on the reputation made by both senior and junior members of the firm in the business world. A West Tennessean, a young man of prominence whose forensic abili-

ties have gone throughout the nation was Mr. Harry H. Pace, the Grand Exa'ted Ruler of the Improved Protective Benevolent Order of Elks of the World. The fact that such a high position comes to a Tennessee residing in the City on the Buff gave rise to much favorable comment last week. Then, too, Mr. Pace, though a young man, is the efficient cashier of the Solvent Savings Bank and Trust Company, a bank that possibly does more business than either of the other three banks in the state of Tennessee. Their deposits are said to be in the neighborhood of two hundred thousand, with most of the capital stock already paid in. It was Mr. Pace who was made a permanent assistant secretary at a recent session of the Republican Convention. It is said that Mr. Pace or Mr. Settles and probably both will be delegates from the Memphis district to the Republican National Convention at Chicago next June.

HAVE YOU A TELEPHONE?
The importance of having telephone service in your place of business or residence cannot be over estimated. Telephone service is absolutely necessary to conduct successfully all business and social affairs. To be without telephone service these days means many inconveniences. The Cumberland Telephone not only gives you connection with every business house and prominent residence in the City of Nashville, but its long distance service places you in direct connection with every important city and town in the United States. Long Distance Service is now used by all progressive business people to conduct successfully all outside affairs. Our Telephone Rates are so reasonable that it places this service in the reach of all. For any information regarding local telephone service or long distance rates and connections call the Manager.

MR. CARNEGIE GIVES AGRICUL
TURAL TROPHY.
New York Mar. 10.—The officers of the American Land and Irrigation Exposition, which was held in New York City last fall, and which is to be held again, November 15th to December 2nd, 1912, in the 71st Regiment Armory, New York, announces that Mr. Andrew Carnegie has just
given a trophy valued at $750.00 to be awarded for the best cotton grown in the United States. Mr. Carnegie makes a special consideration of his award that the colored people of the country may be permitted to enter into this competition. The prizes for staple products, to be awarded at the coming Exposition, will be at the handsomest in the history of the world's agriculture. The Exposition will be open for sixteen days and it is confidently expected that over half a million people will attend. In addition to the prizes already offered, others are as follows:
President Stilwell of the Exposition has already donated to the Exposition a $1,000 trophy for the best exhibit of white potatoes; Mr. Horace Havemeyer has given a $1,000 prize cup for the best exhibit of sugar beets, and the Exposition Management will offer a $1,000 prize for the best exhibit of apples—twenty-five boxes of any variety or varieties grown anywhere.
The exact terms of the awards and full list of prizes, together with any information regarding the various competitions, will be sent upon application by Mr. Gilbert McClurg, General Manager, the American Land and Irrigation Exposition, Singer Bulding, New York City.
The colored people are especially urged to enter for the Carnegie trophy for the best cotton grown as Mr. Carnegie desires.
POULTRY POINTERS
Care of Chicks.
It is a comparatively easy matter to hatch almost any number of chicks, but an entirely different made to raise the large per cent of them to maturity. There are almost numberless causes for the great mortality among the chicks each season, among which may be mentioned lack of inherited vitality, improper feeding, bowel trouble, lice, exposure, white diarrhoea, etc., and occasionally the little fellows die off from causes that are not explainable.
In a majority of cases the trouble is due to either carelessness or ignorance on the part of the caretaker, and the lives of the chicks are simply sacrificed, while in other cases they die in spite of the fact that they receive the very best of care and attention. Even those who have made a scientific study of the matter, covering a period of years, tell us that occasionally their chicks die from causes that are inexplainable.
How many of our readers can tell us the cause of white diarrhoea in little chicks? I venture to say that not one poultryman in a thousand can tell with any degree of certainty what causes it, though there are hundreds who will make a guess at it. Numerous theories have been advanced, and numerous remedies recommended, but we have yet to hear of a sure cure for the disease when once it gets a foot hold in a flock of chicks.
While there are some causes of mortality among the chicks that baffle even the experts, there are other causes that are easily overcome if a little care and common sense will be exercised, or instance, there is no good reason why chicks should be lacking in inherited vitality if the ancestral stock has been properly bred and nourished; but some people are foolish enough to imagine that they can get strong chicks from weak, emaculated, anaemic inbred stock, and are surprised when they get only half a hatch (or less) of young, weak, undersized chicks, with barely enough life and strength to get clear of the shell. Within 24 hours they begin to die, and it's dollars to doughnuts that not one of them will be alive a fortnight after hatching. It takes rich, good blood in the parent stock to produce strong offspring, and without this inheritance the chicks are bound to be weaklings, totally unfit to successfully wage the battle for existence and growth and development.
When it comes to the proper feeding of chicks, there is no need for any one to remain ignorant on this subject, as it has practically been reduced to a science, and the oath and farm papers are full of it. Not all poultry farmers and writers agree in every detail, but the methods employed by the successful, up-to-date poultry men and women are essentially the same. The dry feeding method is the proper one to-day—and the successful one—although occasionally we find those who still stick to the old methods of our grandfathers and feed mushes and mashes and other soft food.
“Getting back to nature,” I advise the rearing of the chicks along the lines and under conditions similar to those surrounding the young of the wild birds of the prairie and forest. I have said—and still believe—that we coddle and pamper the chicks altogether too much. Our very treatment of them oftentimes has a tendency to

make them delicate and proves a handicap rather than a help to the little fellows. The newly-hatched chicks of the prairie hen, the grouse, the quail, etc., have no soft mashes prepared for them, but pick up dry seeds, bugs, worms, tender grass shoots, etc., and they live and thrive and mature into strong, healthy and vigorous birds. We can imitate nature's way of feeding by giving our chicks foods similar to the above, instead of wet mashes, corn meal mush, etc., which often becomes sour and unwholesome before it is eaten up, and more often sours in the crops of the little fellows, causing all kinds of trouble it must be borne in mind that the baby chicks are delicate things at best, and that they need not only warmth and production, but foods that are best suited to their needs and somewhat limited powers of digestion and assimilation during the first few days of their existence.—Exchange
GRAND MASTER MITCHELL VIS-
ITS THE CITY
Rev. D. J. Mitchell, of Franklin, Tenn., C. G. M. of Tennessee and Jurisdiction, who began his annual visits of the International Order of Twelve, March 4th, visited Queen Candace Tent, Monday afternoon, at the home of Mrs. A. W. Peeden, G. Q. M. of Tennessee, on Fortieth avenue. Owing to the bad weather only a few children were present. He congratulated them and addressed them as being the faithful few, and promised to visit them again. He was then the guest of Rev. and Mrs. Henry Roland, C. M. and H. P. of the Tabernacle and Temple, where a beautiful six o'clock luncheon was served. The table was beautifully decorated with cut roses. At night he visited Rock City Progressive Tabernacle and Greater Nashville Temple in a joint meeting. He addressed the Sir Knights and Daughters. After the completion of his work, he spoke to them briefly on different subjects, but everything for the benefit of the order. The reports were read by Messrs. Walter Cater and C. P. Puden. The visiting guests besides Sir Mitchell were Dr. Virginia Mays, H. P. of Mt. Pilgrim Tabernacle of Mt. Nebo, who spoke on the progress of the numbers. Mr. Page C. M. of the Star of the State, also orated; and a visiting Sir Knight from the same Temple, Mr. Bloodsaw; Prof. Todd principal of Centerville school, also made an address, and after becoming so deeply enthused, decided to join Greater Nashville Temple No. 14 Cream and cake were served.
GREAT REVIVALS IN PROGRESS.
Revival season is now on in Nashville. A number of the larger churches are already in the midst of successful meetings. While there is a dearth of visiting ministers, as most of the revivals are being conducted by home talent, there are some visitors in the city from nearby points. All last week the houses of worship received unusually large attendance. The weather was very inclement, but the religious fervor which permeated the atmosphere served to bring out the faithful or pure in heart, as it were. Beginning with this week and next week, practically every church in the city will have entered its revival sessions. From reports that were circulated on the streets it would appear that most of them are having unusual success. At any rate, it is evident that the gospel of the lowly Nazareth is being expounded with force, and that the sinners are accepting it. Some of the meetings will close Sunday night, but this is only to give way to others that are preparing to begin thesers to run from ten to fifteen days.
Mrs. Susie V. Minter and Mrs. Katie Ready, of Murfreesboro, spent Friday and Saturday in the city, en route from Memphis, where they have been visiting.

Miss Amanda Rosa Lee Fannings, after an illness of nearly four weeks, died March 7th and, her memorial was held at Solomon Chapel, March 8th, by Revs. J. H. Harding and C. H. Simmons. Quite a host of friends were out. Miss Gerta Fannings and Mrs. Mahalie Henderson were here from the city last week on account of the death of Miss Amanda Fannings. Mr. Lucien Blackman is better at this writing. Rev. C. H. Simmons was present with Superintendent Samuel A. McGhee in Sunday-school at the colored department of the C. T. Insane Hospital. Rev George E. Huddleston, of Jim Town, spent Saturday evening with Mr. and Mrs. Henry Cannon, and preached for Rev. J. H. Harding on Sunday. He contemplates leaving on a missionary tour next week. Rev. J. H. Harding, pastor of the Baptist Church at this place, preached a strong sermon to a large audience on Sunday night. Mrs. Harry Cannon spent Saturday and Sunday with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Belle Cannon. Mrs. Leola Searcy was the guest of her grandmother, Mrs. Sue Buchanan, last Sunday. Mrs. Annie Searcy was the guest of her mother, Mrs. Mag Harris, last Sunday. On Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. Abram Lewis entertained at dinner Revs. J. Harding. T. J. Eatherly, Mr. Robert Davis and wife, Robert Foster, Sr., and wife, John Rucker, Albert Cunningham, Mrs. Nellie Buchanan. An eight-course menu was served. The Officers of Solomon Chapel A. M. E. Church are now preparing for the approaching quarterly conference.
LAKE PROVIDENCE NOTES.
The members and friends of Lake Providence Baptist Church stormed their pastor, Rev. J. M. Moore, last week, and brought him many nice things to wear. The storm was led by Mrs. Tennie Walker, accompanying her were Mesdames Alice Davis, Ellen Peck, Martha Lee, Mattie Waters, Willie Goings, Martha Andrews, Peggie Elmore, Nep Taylor, Max Maxwell, Alice Collins, Dora Pointer, Lizzie Ensley, Sis Osborne, Mariiah Edmondson, Mattie Edmondson, Lizzie Roberson and many others. The church is progressing nicely under the leadership of Rev. Moore, and all seem to have been benefited by his preaching. This is a splendid neighborhood, and the people are very generous indeed.
LEXINGTON NOTES
Sunday was the day for the great rally at Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church. We feel that the Lord has wonderfully blessed us, having such a great success during the hard winter in raising money for building our church. Rev. R. H. Peoples, our pastor, preached at 11 a. m. from the Sunday-school lesson. At 8 p. m. his text was found in 2 Peter 1:2, subject. "The increase of God's grace." Both sermons were commendable. The collection for the day was $132.35. We have taken new courage to do more and greater work for the Master than ever. May the Lord bless us. Mrs. Frankie H., the wife of Aaron Howard, died suddenly late Saturday afternoon at her home. She was a member of Pilgrim Rest Church, and also of the S. M. T. She was quite an active member of both. We will certainly miss her and extend great sympathy to her husband, who is still ill. Our Sunday-school at Pilgrim Rest seems to be very much alive. Each teacher is taking great interest in their classes. St. Paul, the second Baptist church, is also putting forth efforts to raise money to repair the church. The members are quite active. We have had a deal of sickness and many deaths during this winter. Miss Annie Davis, who has been ill, is up. Mrs. Mary Jones and Mrs. Hallie Davis are able to be up again. The Teachers' Association had a real nice time. Miss Mellie Trice has been indisposed for about a month.
BROWNSVILLE NOTES.
Sunday was a fair day and all the churches were well attended at all the services. Mrs. Celia Anderson, the mother of Mrs Mary Dalley, and Mrs. Mary Davis, her cousin, after a two months' visit, left for Nashville last Saturday evening. Mr. C. J. Porter, the popular insurance agent of the Life & Casualty Insurance Company, spent Sunday in Humboldt visit, spent mother and relatives. Mr. Bill Leigh, one of our prosperous farmers, came near losing his residence by fire last Monday evening. Mr. P. J. Jones spoke to the student body of Dunbar High School last Friday evening, subject, "Go Forward." The speaker said many things that will do the race good if put into practice. The House Keepers' Club was entertained at the residence of Mrs. Ann Mannie Sunday afternoon. Mr. Willie Wade took a flying trip to Trenon Saturday, en route home, spent Sunday night with C. J. Porter. It is said that he had quite a pleasant and enjoyable stay at the home of Misses Tommie and Annie B. Rogans
BOWLING GREEN (KY.) NOTES.
The sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Lula G. Porter, wife of our popular shoemaker, Mr. John T. Porter, was received here Thursday night. She died in the Hubbard Hospital Thursday at 5 p. m. from the effects of an operation. She was a devout Christian and a zealous church worker and will be greatly missed by the people of Bowling Green. Funeral services were conducted by Eastern Star Chapter at the Porter residence on Main street, Sunday afternoon. Rev. H. D. Carpenter officiated. On Monday morning the remains were accompanied to Glascow, Ky., by the Eastern Star Chapter, State street chair, members of State Street Sunday-School, relatives and friends.
