THANKSGIVING DAY FOOTBALL
BUT NOT BETWEEN MEHARRY
AND FISK—THIS IS CERTAIN.
Dr. Hubbard Takes Firm Stand—Meh
harryites Cannot Play in 1912—
Fisk Will Have Good Game—
Decided What Team They
Will Play—Expected Mat-
The lovers of the gridiron sport in this city are assured by the manager and coach of Fisk University that they will not be deprived of a high-class football game on Thanksgiving day. This information was gleaned from the coach by a Globe representative. Just what team will be played could not be ascertained. This was mostly due to the fact that it has been this year. He said that the game the custom for many years to have the Fisk-Meharry game on the annual holiday. But since the decision of the trustees of Meharry Medical College to not allow any football this year, it is necessary for the management of Fisk to arrange with another team. In doing this it was necessary to exercise discretion. The people of this city had become accustomed to witnessing a good game on Thanks giving, and it is to the desire of the Fisk people to uphold the reputation of the athletic association in this respect. It became necessary, therefore to rearrange the schedule from beginning to end, in order that the lovers of the sport in Nashville might be satisfied.
Just what team Fisk will play on Thanksgiving will be known soon. But as to the Meharry game it is a settled fact it will not be played. Dr. Hubbard was approached by a representative of the Globe and asked if he had taken a final decision in the matter. He said that the matter was not left with him, but that the Trustees of the College had decided definitly that there would be no game of last year brought about a condition that is intolerable. Many of the students gambled on the result of the last year game to the extent that the college was greatly embarrassed thereby. A number of Meharry boys staked all they had on the game. Many pawned their clothes to get money to bet, others pawned their books, and one student pawned the books of a fellow-student and bet every cent on the Meharry team. After Meharry lost there was a great number of students who were without money to pay their board bill and to meet any other obligations, which greatly embarrassed Dr. Hubbard and the faculty of Meharry. It is said that one of the up-town saloons was made the headquarters for betting, and the boys not only bet their money, but indulged in other demoralizing habits very unbecoming to students.
The Athletic Association was financially embarrassed, and their shortage fell upon the Medical College, Bills, it is said, came in from every quarter until the indebedness ran into the hundreds of dollars, all of which had to be paid by the school, and has not yet been replaced. It is learned that a committee from the school is soliciting from the people in the city money to pay debts incurred by the association last year. It was said that the money was made, but was squandered. And now the people are being asked to go into their pockets and pay up the indebedness caused by the recklessness of the management of last year's association. This also was embarrassing to Dr. Hubbard and is considered by him a great imposition upon the citizens of Nashville. It is not known whether or not any one has contributed to the appeals of the association, but it is learned from good authority that such an appeal is being made, which is considered very unjust. The impression being created that if this money is raised and paid that the Meharry game will be played this year is erroneous, for every effort put forth and every influence bought to beep to induce Dr. Hubbard to yield the stand he has taken has proven futile, and the game will not be played this year under any circumstances.

NASHVILLE GLOBE.
BISHOP CHAPPELLE IN NASHVILLE
SPEAKS TO LARGE AUDIENCE AT ST. PAUL A. M. E. CHURCH.
First Appearance in the City Since His Election to the Bishopric—His Many Friends Show Appreciation of the Honor Bestowed....—Preached an Excellent Sermon — Old Fighting Spirit.
Bishop W. D. Chappelle, Columbia, S. C., paid his first visit to this city since his election as Bishop last Sunday. He spoke to a large and appreciative audience at St. Paul A. M. E. Church at 11 o'clock. He came to the city unheralded, or the audience would have doubtless been much larger than it was, for he has a host of friends and admirers in Nashville who would have been glad to greet him for the first time since he has been so signally honored by his Church.
The sermon Sunday morning was well received and was typical of the man. While Secretary of the Sunday-School Union in this city, which position Bishop Chappelle held for eight years, his membership was with the St. Paul Church, and it was here that he met his host of friends and admirers. The sermon was a forceful one, and showed that the church made no mistake in elevating this scholarly man to the highest position in its gift.
Bishop Chappelle is a progressive and his sermon showed that he believes in progressive Christianity. He is a thorough African Methodist who never hesitates to challenge any one when they depart from what he believes to be strictly methodistic customs. None was surprised Sunday morning when Bishop Chappelle digressed from the sermon to administer a few of his characteristic criticisms on the method employed by the pastor of St. Paul. The Bishop did not approve of the cap and gown choir. He said, however, that he did not ask any man to agree with him, but that when he differed he did not hesitate to say so. He also criticised one of the old members of the church, Rev. Crump, in his manner of prayer. Dr. J. W. Sexton, pastor of the church, is also progressive in church work. Since coming to Nashville he has inaugurated at St. Paul a form of service that has become very popular. But Bishop Chappelle objected to this departure from the old customs.
Hon. J. C. Napier was present and when asked to say a few words he differed with Bishop Chappelle, and said that he highly approved of the manner in which Dr. Sexton conducted his services. This brought forth applause, though it was Sunday, from the congregation. Bishop Phillips was also present and he agreed with Mr. Napier. Dr. Sexton was in no wise disturbed by the criticisms of Bishop Chappelle, for he is a scholarly and gentlemanly Christian pastor, unassuming and thoroughgoing. He has pastored some of the largest churches in his connection, and his method at St. Paul seems to meet the approval and receives the highest commendation of a large majority of the membership of the church, and the same has grown in popularity under his administration. Dr. Sexton is well liked in Nashville and does not believe that Bishop Chappelle's criticisms will have any effect whatever upon the church, for those who know him best know that he is a born critic and seems duty-bound to find fault with something wherever he goes. It was said by some of the members of the church that the very thing Bishop Chappelle criticised Sunday morning he offered to introduce under the administration of Dr. C. H. Boone, and went so far as to agree to donate the caps and gowns for the choir if Dr. Boone would introduce that form of service in his church.
It was, evident, however, that Bishop Chappelle has changed in some of his views and that now since he is a bishop in his church does not approve of the cap and gown custom in choirs.
This little flurry, however, did not have any effect on the services. The Bishop's friends were glad to see him and took his criticism as a natural consequence and bade the Bishop God-speed on his journey.
Mrs. Chappelle was with her husband on his way to his work in Arkansas and Oklahoma, where he will soon be holding his conferences. They were both in splendid health and spent the time in Nashville greeting old friends.

NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY OCTOBER 18, 1912
MAYOR HOWSE SPEAKS TO NEGROES OF TENNESSEE
McMILLAN RALLY MONDAY NIGHT HON. NACE DIXON WILL SPEAK AT ST. JOHN CHURCH.
Nashville, Tennessee, Oct. 12, 1912.
To the Colored Citizens of Tennessee:
I believe that I have by acts of charity and deeds of kindness earned the right to give counsel to the colored race of Tennessee. I have viewed with admiration the miraculous strides in civilization made by the colored people, especially of the South.
I sincerely believe that the colored man, like the white man, should have a fair opportunity for the accumulation of property and wealth, and the pursuit of contentment and happiness, and the same identical protection under the law.
I believe the election of Hooper would be a blight and a curse to the colored people of this State and that the election of Benton McMillin would bring all of the blessings which Hooper promises without any of the eftis which will necessarily result from his unholy desire for un-American laws
HON. HILARY E. HOWSE.
to oppress and harass the poor people of this State.
I desire to call your attention to some of the substantial and lasting evidences of my friendship and the friendship of the Democratic party in Tennessee for the colored race:
A State Normal School has been erected for training teachers in order that the colored youth of Tennessee might have the benefit of competent instructors in all of their schools throughout the State. A part of the money for this institution was appropriated by a Democratic Legislature and $80,000 was appropriated by the Democratic County Court of Davidson County, in order that the institution might be located in this County. The City of Nashville has purchased a public park for the colored people of this city at a cost of $20,000 and will beautify and maintain this Park exclusively for the colored people at a large additional yearly cost. When Mr. Andrew Carnegie agreed to give $25,000 for the erection of a Library for the exclusive use of the colored people of the City of Nashville a Democratic City Council readily and willingly agreed to give $2,500 each

HON. NACE DIXON
SPEAK AT ST
On Monday night the ball will be started to rolling in the interest of the Hon. Benton McMillin, the democratic nominee for governor. The principal speaker on this occasion will be Hon. Nace Dixon, of Clarksville. Mr. Dixon is a life-long republican. He has often represented his district in the councils of his party and was for a number of years a member of the State Committee. He is therefore well posted on the history of the republican party in Tennessee. He is a business man of good standing in his home city, where he conducts an undertaking establishment. Mr. Dixon enjoys the confidence of all the citizens of Clarksville and of all wherever he is known.
BISHOP JONES A

Bishop Joshua H. Jones, who is holding the East Tennessee Conference in Knoxville this week, will be in Nashville Tuesday, and will worship at St. John A. M. E. Church Tuesday night at the annual Love Fear services.
Dr. G. W. Porter the pastor is im
D. G. W. Forster, the pastor, is ill
year for all time to come for the maintenance of this Library. When the salaries of the teachers in the public schools f Nashville were increased, no distinction whatever was made, both colored and white teachers being increased at the same ratio. A Democratic Board of Education in the city of Nashville is contemplating the erection of a magnificent new high school in order that the colored youth of this city may have an opportunity to receive, especially manual training, in order that they may go out in the world equipped to efficiently perform the duties that will fall to their lot. These are a few of the many evidences of the friendship of the Democratic party for the colored people of this State, and while I have always been active in promoting their welfare, modesty forbids that I go into details.
Let us look at Hooper and Hooper's record and see if we really want him for our Governor. It is known to all men that the heavy hand of the law falls remorselessly on the shoulders of the colored people and those of both races who are friendless and penniless. There is at the present time something like two thousand prisoners confined at the State Prison and the Brushy Mountain Mines, and a large majority of these prisoners are members of the colored race. Hooper boasts of the fact that he refuses to issue pardons, although he claims to be a follower of the meek and lowly Nazarene, and pardoning people was his chief occupation while upon this earth. I predict if this man Hooper is re-elected and obtains from the Legislature laws giving him the power to remove Mayors, interchange Judges, call out the militia, etc. that in two years from now there will be more than four thousand people confined in the Penitentiary and the Mines in Tennessee.
What chance would a colored man in Nashville have for either life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness, if GovHooper had the authority to bring a man from East Tennessee to try him for a crime committed in Nashville? What chance would a colored man have in Nashville for his life, liberty or even-handed justice if one of Hooper's henchmen should be appointed Criminal Judge in Davidson County? Observe the pompous egotism exhibited by the Governor when he went to the Penitentiary and lined the poor unfortunate prisoners up, paraded them before a Moving Picture Machine and had them provided with "mock petitions" to present to the Governor. Observe the Governor and all of his followers fighting the measure in the recent Legislature for an appropriation of $20,000 to purchase ground for the Colored State Normal School. Listen t the piteous appeals of the unfortunate convicts while his brutal guards apply the lash to their bare backs, and remember the bread riot caused at the Penitentiary when his political appointees failed to give the unfortunate prisoners sufficient food to satisfy their hunger, then ask yourself the question, Is Ben Wade Hooper the proper man to be Governor of the great commonwealth of Tennessee. H. E. HOWSE, Mayor of Nashville.

On Monday Hon. Nace Dixon will tell his republican friends why they should break away from the old party and cast their lot with the regular democratic party. He will tell why he has done so and will show the bare hand of deception of the republicans and fusionists. Other prominent men will speak at the meeting.
This will be the opening gun in the campaign that will be pushed from now until the 5th of November. The campaign will be state-wide. Negro men who thinks as Hon. Dixon does will proclaim the virtues of the democratic party in every section of the state. The committee headed by Rev. Luke Mason, is prepared to shell the woods from now until election time.

'I DON'T CARE RAP ABOUT BEING SHOT
'I DON'T CARE RAP ABOUT BEING SHOT
SPEECH DELIVERED BY COLONEL
WITH BULLET IN HIS BREAST.
Saved by Manuscript—Missile's Flight
Stayed by Bulky Package in Victim's Coat Pocket — Exhibits Blood Stains—Asks Audience to Remain as Quiet as Possible While He
Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 14.—I "do not care a rap about being shot, not a rap," said Colonel Roosevelt in his speech tonight.
"Friends," he began, "I shall have to ask you to be as quiet as possible. I do not know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot, but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose. But fortunately I had my manuscript (holding up manuscript, showing audience where bullet had gone through) so you see I am going to make a long speech. And, friends, the hole is in it that the bullet went through, and it probably saved it from going into my heart. The bullet is in me now, so that I cannot make a very long speech. But I will try my best.
"And now friends, I want to take advantage of this incident to say a solemn word of warning, as I know how, to my fellow Americans. First of all, I want to say this about myself. I have altogether too many important things to think of, to pay any heed or feel any concern over my own death. Now I would not speak to you insincerely within five minutes of being shot. I am telling you the literal truth when I say that my concern is for many other things. It is not in the least for my own life.
Still Ahead of Game.
"I want you to understand that I am ahead of the game anyway. No man has had a happier life than I have had, a happier life in every way. I have been able to do certain things that I greatly wished to do and I am interested in doing other things. I can tell you with absolute truthfulness that I am very much uninterested in whether I am shot or not.
"It was just as when I was colonel of my regiment I always felt that a private was to be excused for feeling at times some pangs of anxiety about his personal safety, but I cannot understand a man fit to be colonel who can pay any heed to his personal safety when he is occupied as he ought to be occupied with the absorbing desire to do his duty.
"I am in this cause with my whole heart and soul; I believe in the Progressive movement—a movement for the betterment of mankind, the movement for making life a little easier for all our people; a movement to try to take the burdens off the man and especially the woman in this country who is most oppressed. I am absorbed in the success of that movement. I feel uncommonly proud in belonging to that movement."
Heads for Acceptance.
"Friends, I ask you now this evening to accept what I am saying as absolute truth when I tell you I am not thinking of my own success, I am not thinking of my life or of anything connected with me personally, I am saying this by way of introduction because I want to say something very serious to our people and especially to newspapers.
"I don't know who the man was who shot me tonight. He was seized by one of my stenographers, Mr. Martin, and I suppose is in the hands of the police now. He shot to kill me. I am just going to show you. (Colonel Roosevelt then unbuttoned his coat and vest and showed his white shirt badly stained with blood.) Now friends, I am going to be as quiet as possible. I am not able to give the challenge of the Bull Moose quite as loudly. Now, I do not know who he was or what party he represented. He was a coward. He stood in the darkness in the crowd around the automobile and when they cheered me and I got up to bow, he stepped forward and shot me in the breast.
"It is a very natural thing that weak and vicious minds should be inflamed to acts of violence by the kind of foul medacity and abuse that has been heaped upon me for the last three months by the papers in the interests not only of Mr. Debs, but of Mr. Wilson and Mr. Taft.
"Says Slander the Cause.
'Friends, I will disown and repudiate any man of my party who attack* with such vile, foul slander and abuse any opponents of any other party.
Now I wish to say seriously to the speakers and the newspapers representing both the Republican and Democratic and Socialist parties that they cannot, month in and month out, year in and year out, make the kind of slanderous, bitter and malevolent assaults that have been made and not expect that brutal and violent characters, especially when the brutality is accompanied by a not too strong mind, they cannot expect that such natures will be unaffected by it.
"I am not speaking for myself at all. I give you my word I do not care a rap about being shot, not a rap. I have had a good many experiences in my time and this is only one of them. What I do care for is my country. I wish I were able to impress on our people the duty to feel strongly but to speak truthfully of their opponents. I say now I have

McMILLAN'S ELEG TIONA CERTAINTY.
FROM EVERY PART OF STATE
EVIDENCES POIN THAT WAY.
Life-long Republicans Turning to the
Democratic Hero—His Past Record
His Best Asset—Fusionism No
Longer Approved — Republi-
can Party a Dead Issue—
All Principles Cast
to the Winds.
Every day the outlook grows brighter for Hon. Benton McMillin. The people of Tennessee are rallying to the ex-Governor, and his election on the 5th day of November seems assured. Men who have voted the republican ticket all their lives are outspoken in their determination to support the regular Democratic nominee in the coming election. It is the concensus of opinion that the interests of the state can best be served under a democratic administration. Those republicans who are breaking away from the old party have not changed their opinions as to the principles of the party of Lincoln; but they have awakened to the realization of the fact that the so-called republican party in Tennessee is as far from those principles as the east is from the west. They realize that there is not a semblance of republicanism in Tennessee, but instead that a fusion party is attempting to deceive the people and lead them blindly into a destructive policy that will set Tennessee's progress back many years. From every part of the state leading men are writing letters to the democratic nominee, pledging him their support. The following are fair samples of the opinion that is being expressed from every quarter: Hon. Benton McMillin, Nashville, Tenn.
In reading your opening speech I am frank to say that your views fully express my ideas as to state politics. I am certainly pleased with the manner in which you deal with the Prohibition plank, especially the state-wide proposition. I am a colored citizens of thirty-five years' standing in Clarksville. I am also a hard working man, but I do try to know something about the political condition of my state. I find many of my colored friends thinking as I do about these matters. Hence, I am persuaded to take up the cross and help push this thing to a straight old-fashioned democratic victory.
Your platform as I see it is the best and cleanest thing I have seen. I find you have other strong advocates of your principles here.
I would be glad to have some of your literature; that part that deals with the Prohibition problem. I have always been a republican, but I have resolved to support the men of the hour regardless of his politics so help me God.
Very truly yours,
Clarksville, Tenn., Oct. 7, 1912.
Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 6, 1912.
Hon. Benton McMillin.
I was very glad to know a few days ago that were in the race again for Governor of our good old state, Tennessee, and I also truly believe that you will be elected. Every fair-minded colored man in this section believes that you made the best Governor, when you were Governor, that Tennessee ever had, and you can rest assured that you will get the support of a great many of them this time. I, myself, am a republican and have always voted that ticket, but snowing your past administration as compared to others, I have laid my republicanism aside to help a man who has done more good than all other governors I know in the state. I am a colored man, was born in Memphis, Teen. After struggling hard for what education I received here, went to Chicago, Ill., where I studied medicine, and now I have come back to Memphis for my practice. I want you to know how the Negroes in this section feel toward you. Hoping you will be elected, I am. Very respectfully yours.
The above are from men who stand above reproach in their respective communities. Many others could be cited, but space will not permit. Everywhere Mr. McMillin has appeared he has head in his hearing the leading Negro voters. They have listened carefully to his speeches and they have studied carefully his presentation of the principles of the democratic party. Many of these men have listened to the presentation of the fusionist candidate, and those who have not heard him speak have read in the newspapers the doctrine of the fusionist party, and after putting the two side by side the conclusion as enunciated in the letters published in this article sum up the opinion of the thinking men of the state. It will be seen that their arguments are rational and that the changed sentiment is based upon sane, reasonable grounds.
never said on the stump one word against any opponent that I would not defend in the laboratory. I have said nothing that I could not substantiate, and nothing I ought not to have said, nothing that, looking back, I would not say again. I am all right."

DICKSON NOTES
Monday was a big day in politics in Dickson. Hon. J. C. Napier and Hon. P. F. Hill, the two big political guns, appeared on the scene. At night a large and appreciative audience of the citizens of Dickson county were addressed by Hon. P. F. Hill and Hon. J. C. Napier, who instructed them how to cast their vote in the coming elections. Both men were at their best and everybody who heard the talks were well pleased. Hon. P. F. Hill was introduced by Mr. T. E. Miller, who entertained the audience in his usual way, and Dr. Miles, in a few well-chosen words introduced Lawyer J. C. Napier, the registrar of the treasury of the United States of
America, who held the audience spellbound for an hour on the currency of the United States and the political issue of the day. Mr. W. J. Jackson was master of ceremonies and Mr. G. A.

MEHARRY FIELD DAY AT GREENWOOD.
The annual Field Day of Meharry Medical College, having for its object the raising of funds for the benefit of the George W. Hubbard Hospital, came off at Greenwood Park on Saturday, the 5th inst., and resulted in abundant success.
The interest which is customarily shown in public functions connected with this institution was manifested on this occasion, so that not only the students of Meharry were present, but those of Walden and Fisk Universities, and a considerable number of the colored citizens of Nashville.
The arrangements by the ladies and gentlemen of the hospital association were faultless, and reflected much credit for the foresight manifested. Refreshments of a very varied character were at hand and eagerly sought out by the pleasure-seekers, who wended their way either to grandma's kitchen, where Misses Moore, Lloyd and Jackson and Mrs. Holman officiated, or to the delicatessen apartments of Mrs. Bandy, Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Hale and other ladies. The amusements of the day were also varied and exciting, and consisted of the "one hundred yard dash." "running high jump," "acrobatic feats," "a football skirmish" between the sophomore and junior classes and as "baby show." Many found enjoyment at the merry-go-round, and when the hours of darkness came, the crowd was seen to wend its way to the playhouse of the park, where all were thrown into ecstatic mirth by the magical performances of Mr. Armstrong.
The total realization on the occasion amounted to more than $400. The hospital association desires, through this medium, to render thanks to the Rev. Preston Taylor, through whose unbounded generosity the park was placed at their disposal.
At eleven o'clock on Sunday morning an address will be delivered at Meharry Auditorium by Dr. I. Garland Penn, Secretary of the Freedman's Aid Society.
Bishop Henderson, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, will deliver an address at Meharry, Auditorium on Monday afternoon, the 14th inst.
CLEAN:UP DAY AT THE STATE NORMAL
The "Clean-up" Day at the A. & I State Normal School was a great success. We wish to express our appreciation to our many friends and patrons who gave us their hearty cooperation on Friday. Especially do we make mention of Mr. Carr and Mr. Smith, who donated the service of their teams.
The success of the undertaking was mainly due to the skillful planning of the committee, directed by Prof. Meeks and Prof. Caruthers, who had the work in hand. At 9 a.m. the war against weeds, stones and rubbish began. The vast battle line of more than 250 students and friends each carrying a war implement, of a rake, hoe, scythe, spade, ax, pluck or a wheelbarrow, marched in full array to the battle-field, where each class took charge of the section that had been staked off for it. At the ringing of the bell all hands went to work with great zeal: 1:30 p. m. found all ready for dinner, which was served on the campus. After
dinner the fight was resumed with new vigor. 4:30 p. m. found the main building to the pike cleared; every weed dead; wagon loads of stone and rubbish removed; and a more substantial road built from the pike to the main building. There were photographs made of the groups at work and one made of all the groups together after the work was completed. Another such crusade will make the campus of A. & I. State Normal School the garden spot of Nashville.
MR. THOMAS DEAD
Fred Douglass Thomas was born July 1st, 1876 at Goodlettsville, Tenn., and died at Riverside, Cal., October 6, 1912. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Cain Thomas, of Goodlettsville. He was engaged in barbering and picture making at Nashville, Tenn., but was forced to leave for California on account of his health, where he has been for the past four years. He leaves a father, wife and three children, one of whom is Daisy Freddella, of Pearl High School, who is being reared by her sister, Mrs. T. E. Smiley, of Fourteenth avenue, North. He also leaves three devoted sisters, Mrs. T. E. Smiley, Mrs. James Ballinger, of Massillon, Ohio, and Mrs. Wm. Matthews, of Eighteenth avenue, North, also a number of relatives and friends. He was a member of the C. M. E. Church and of the Pythian Order Damon No. 2.
POULTRY NOTES
Since the close of the State Fair quite a deal of interest is being taken by the Negroes of the state in the poultry industry. The credit for this belongs to the Tennessee State Colored Poultry Association. The regular monthly meeting of the association was held last Friday evening. The members were well pleased with the showing the association made in the first annual exhibition. Plans for the next exhibition were discussed at length. Every effort will be put forth to make it a grand one, with a much greater variety of poultry, and representing the different sections of the state. Several new members were added.
At the next monthly meeting Dr. J. P. Crawford will open the subject for discussion with a paper on "Chicken Pox, and How to Handle It." It is predicted that fresh eggs in Nashville will bring not less than sixty cents per dozen this winter. Get a few good hens of the standard variety, and they will pay you.
The Landers Poultry Farm made a shipment of some very nice birds to Arkansas this week.
The beginner should start with utility stock, and gradually get into the fancy end, if this is his alm.
There are those who begin with scrubs, intending to keep pure breds later on, but they seldom do.

The Relief Club met in its regular session Friday afternoon, October 4, at the residence of Mrs. Clara Johns, 1412 Hamilton street. After the business was transacted, interesting remarks were made by the president; Mrs. Johnson.
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1912
The State Superintendents of the various Southern States have agreed to recommend the observance of
Wednesday, November 27, 1912, as Agricultural Day
in all their public schools.
The purpose of this movement is to focus attention on the country school and country life for one day in every part of our section. Suggestive programs are being arranged containing songs, recitations and readings bearing on country life. Boys of the corn clubs and girls of the canning clubs will be asked to display their products, and all the school activities which center in the country will be called into operation in the exercises.
It is hoped that this observance will grow into an annual custom and that some day in November can be agreed upon when the millions of school children in the country, with their friends and parents, can come for a few brief hours and consider the needs peculiar to the country school and country life.
A double significance will attach to the Day this year in that in connection with the program of country life, it is planned to commemorate the life and service of Dr. Seaman A. Knapp. It is useless to remind you of the value of Dr. Knapp's work. Of all the men of recent years who have contributed ideas of vital value to the educational development of the South, he stands out prominently. When we have passed through the present educational change and have worked out a satisfactory country school and have arranged a curse of study and activities which will thoroughly equip our young people, it will no doubt be found that the ideas of Dr. Knapp have given coloring to the whole scheme.
But his contribution was not merely an academic one; it was directly and immediately of material value. The larger returns from investments of time, labor and money in agricultural pursuits which are reported from every state, the agricultural awakening which marks these latter years in every section of the South, is due largely to his labors, suggestions and teachings. It is natural that the South should undertake to pay some tribute to the memory of this n.an; and soon after his death a memorial committee was appointed, who, after consultation, planned to erect a memorial to him of such a nature as to conserve the great agricultural ideas he had given to the world. Later the General Education Board set aside $250,000 to endow the Seaman A. Knapp School for Country Life as part of the George Peabody College for Teachers. The Knapp Memorial Committee thereupon resolved to raise a fund of $150,000 from the school children and parents of the South to purchase a farm and erect a suitable building for carrying on the activities of the Seaman A. Knapp School.
Knapp Agricultural Day in Tennesse see and the South this year will be utilized to secure this fund. This does not mean that the primary purpose is to raise money, the real aim, as already suggested, being to study country life; but an incident of the gathering is a collection for this great and worthy cause. Small contributions are especially desirable. There are men who are willing to give the whole sum, or a large part of it, but the Committee in charge would much prefer a multitude of nickels and dimes and 'dollars to a few large subscriptions. It has been suggested that if desired, the school observing the Day may retain half the collection for local purposes, and donate the remainder to the Knapp Memorial, the part reserved to be used in school improvement, purchase of books bearing particularly on country life, and supplying other needs of the country school.
Every Cunty Superintendent who has ever organized a corn club, or who has realized the benefits of such an organization in another country; every boy who has ever been connected with a corn club, or every girl who has ever heard of a canning club; every parent who has seen the interest of his children expand because of these and kindred organizations; every man, won, an and child who has felt the stirring of these new movements in country life, ought to participate in the program and make the Knapp Agricultural Day notable in the educational and material development of his community and State.
I hope that you will take hold of this matter vigorously at once and thoroughly organize your County. At the earliest possible date have a meeting of your teachers and urge them to observe the Day in their school. Suggestive programs will be furnished from my office. Every superintendent who will co-operate in this movement will do me a favor by communicating with me at once.
J. W. BRISTER,
State Superintendent.
SALEM A. M. E. CHURCH
GRAND SUCCESS
The members and friends of Salem A. M. E. Church are rejoicing over the grand success of their first annual carnival given in the vicinity of the church the week of September 30th, 1912. The basket dinner previous to the carnival Sunday, September 29th, was the means of having a crowded house in the afternoon. Revs. Adams, of Trinity Church, and Brown, of Mt. Jullet, Tenn., furnished excellent sermons, together with the usual splendid music of the choir the day was spent pleasantly. The very efficient officers of the carnival were Rev. R. H. McGavock, chairman; Omah Stratton, vice chairman; J. R. Robinson, secretary; Rev. James K. Childress, pastor; Albert Seay, treasurer.
THE LADIES' AID SOCIETY
The Ladies' Aid and Missionary Society of the First Baptist Church met Monday evening, October 7th, with Mrs. Emma Shorter, vice president, in the chair, W. W. O. Tate, the president being absent. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and showed that much business had been transacted, the most important being the success of the bazaar.
Mound Bayou, Miss., Oct. 12—Dr. Booker T. Washington will blow the whistle and set the Mound Bayou Oil Mill in operation on Monday, November 25. On October 10th, 1908, on the spot where the large two-story brick structure stands, Dr. Washington spoke in its interest. Following out the plans that were made about that time, every effort has been made, every energy has been exerted to raise the $100,000.00 which is the authorized capital of the Mill. After four years of unremitting toll and many nerve racking experiences in raising finance necessary for the construction of this mammoth plant, it stands upon the threshold. There remains about $150,000.00 to be raised. With the wheels turning and the oil flowing, the confidence of the stalwarts who put money and brain and brawn into this mill (the Negroes' gateway to the larger financial world) will be proved.
Won't you come up to the opening?
Won't you bring along a man who is alive to a first-class investment; one who wants quick returns for his money?
In failing to bring another, won't you see the wisdom of buying a larger block of shares than you have?
This for two reasons—first, because you have but a small amount invested in proportion to your ability to take. Secondly, because no investment that you or your friends have made has the reasonable hope of success as the one in the mill. Don't forget the day, November the 25th.
Yours truly,
MOUND BAYOU OIL MILL AND MFG. CO.

The campaign and rally launched for Roger Williams University last June by Dr. W. H. Moses D. D., of Knoxville, Penn., is proving itself from day to day by the splendid returns coming in from time to time. Last Saturday the assistant, Prof. A. M. Jackson, the leader of the campaigned, canvassed one of the liberal contributors, whose name is not mentioned by request, and without a moment's hesitation the said contributor paid in $120 of his pledge which was immediately placed to the credit of the institution with one of its downtown creditors. This is one test for the pledge system which was inaugurated last June, when Nashville was stirred from center to circumference by denominational pride and came to the call of Rev. W. H. Moses, and now it is coming in from time to time, the results of which will have telling effect for all times to come inasmuch as its grow is substantial and genuine. Prof. A. M. Jackson, of Roger Williams, is pushing up the fires, and with the cooperation of the Baptist ministers, who are the real ministers, both in word and spirit—who are the real leaders of the race, Roger Williams University will build up a debit that will result in a constant inflow of finance that will meet any and all of her obligations that are deserving of immediate attention now.

Mayor Howse's Message.
We call the attention of our readers to the address of Mayor H. E. Howse, of this city, which appears on another page. This address should be read carefully by every Negro in Tennessee, and then we should be honest enough, if not already informed as to the truthfulness of the statements made therein, to become informed. Know the truth, an dthen you will be able to act intelligently. But the majorly of the people know that every sentence uttered by Mayor Howse is true. Now, in all candor, what do you think it best to do, continue following a "jack-o-lantern" or join with the people who are working for the material betterment of Tennessee?
The leading men in this state have always acted with courage in a crisis, and we believe the same patriotism will compel them to do so in 1912. Be not deceived, but look the situation squarely in the face and reason within yourself. Tennessee is your home, and you may own a small piece of property, but put your little by the side of the great tracts of land and the immense cities and industries owned by the white people, and see how very insignificant it is. Some will tell you that the Constitution of the United States guarantees to every man equal rights; that is true, but the Constitution doesn't seem to have time to come down in Tennessee and look after the little needs of the Negro citizens here.
We have to look to the constitution of Tennessee, and more particularly, to the people who administer the law, for what we need and what we expect to receive. For it is well known, after all, that our government is based upon that fundamental principle of "states rights;" and our trouble in Tennessee now is due to the fact that municipal rights have been abused and are being abused; and such abuse is that one thing that the American people will not stand for.
As citizens of Tennessee we should not deceive ourselves, nor allow the insincere clamors to deceive us, but should look at the situation in its true light and be men.
A few weeks ago, the convicts in the penitentiary at Rawlins, Wyo., were allowed to lynch a man who had been put there for protection. A few days ago these same convicts turned on the guards in that prison and used on them the liberties they had been given, and twenty-seven made their escape. Some of the guards and several citizens were murdered and the community is terror-striken. That lawlessness begets lawlessness was never more clearly evidenced.
A Bitter Pill
One of the leading republicans in Tennessee says that the position taken by the Globe in the present state campaign is the bitterest pill he has ever had to swallow. It is strange that a man who has lived in the South all of his life, and who has participated in public affairs for many years, should be surprised at this time to see a Negro paper support a democrat for office.
We are nearly fifty years removed from the bitter civil conflict. We are many years removed from the days of reconstruction. We stand to-day in the light of a new era, and it does seem that we are far enough removed from the days of slavery for Negroes to be accorded the right to think.
When all Negroes were republicans it was not because they had reasoned for themselves, but because they were allowing some one else to reason for them, and that other fellow in his reasoning did not decide things discretely; but reasoned always that he was in need of being benefited by every political move; that the office should be
NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 18. 1912
his regardless of the consequences and that it mattered not about the millions of Negroes in the South so long as he drew his pay from the federal pie-counter and his offspring was permitted to do the same thing.
The Negro was used as an instrument. He knew not why a certain cause was being agitated or why men desired to enact certain laws. He only knew one thing: that there were two parties contending for supremacy. One was the republican party and the other was the democratic party. Those men were our fathers. They had just come from under the lash and it was under the republican administration that the civil war was fought. The federal army won the victory; and in winning that victory they gave to the slaves freedom; not because they loved them, nor because they desired to do so, but because there was no other way to win. Being freed by the army that was supporting the federal administration, and that administration being under the republican party's influence was certain to make the ex-slave feel that he owed his life and his liberty to the republican party, and that he would owe his existence to that same party. But it should be remembered that the slaves who were mured into the federal army really won the victory, and that victory was sufficient to pay for every debt of gratitude the Negro owed the republican party. So from the close of the civil war down to this time every office that the Negro has helped the republican party win has been given gratuitously, and the men who have profited by republican victories for fifty years are indebted to the Negroes for every victory won; consequently, it does seem that in all justice to ourselves we should begin now to demand pay for services rendered. This pay cannot come in dollars and cents. It can only come in a just administration of law.
We should demand our portion of the public funds. Every black boy and girl should have a fair education. Every citizen in the state and motion should have equal protection before the law. We should be convinced by this time that the republican party does not show an inclination to do these things. And it does not seem that they have the ability to do them.
Politicians are human, and any man or set of men who are in a contest naturally feel that to the victor belongs the spoils. The republican party in Tennessee is the minority party. They cannot win a victory of themselves, and can only win through fusion. This fusion must be made with dissatisfied democrats. And after these combines have planned and carried out, they never result in any good to the people. A fusion democrat will not act in full accord with republicans, and as a result the interests of the people are lost sight of in the greed for office and place of honor. If all of the common people, white and black, are neglected by the fusionist, it stands to reason that the Negroes' interest will be entirely ignored. For the sentiment in the South is such that the Negroes' interests must always be considered separate and apart from that of the white people. This is not fair, we admit, but it is nevertheless true, and it is a condition with which we must deal. In justice to ourselves, we should deal with the situation in a way that will be to the best interest of ourselves. To do this it be comes necessary to become identified with that political party that can year in and year out, do the most for all the people, white and black.
Again, white republicans in the South are an apologistic set. They have to find some excuse for having done every little thing they do for the Negro. And in fact, fusion republicans apologize for appointing white republicans to office. It is only necessary to cite the case of the appointment of Senator Sanders. For it is a fact well-known to all that Gov. Hooper did apologize to Tennessee for appointing the man senator who made him governor of the State. No one expected Mr. Hooper to appoint a democrat to the Senate; but he felt duty-bound to apologize for it. And therein lies another weakness of the republicans, and of all fusion ad ministrations.
So, it seems strange that our leading men should be surprised that the rank and file of Negroes are learning to look at the situation in a sensible way, and to conclude that the name of the party means nothing to them; but that they must consider the men who make up these interests to vote for these men who have proven to them that they will do justly and fairly by them and do it courageously, and without making apologies to anyone for having done so. This may be bitter to the few but it will be sweet to the many, and that is the end to which we should strive.
Col. Roosevelt.
The civilized world and this nation in particular is in deep sympathy with Col. Theodore Roosevelt, who was so
brutally assaulted in Millwaukee last. Monday night, and in like manner he is admired for his courage. Col. Roosevelt is a great man and the principles he is advocating are those principles that will conserve to the best interests of the nation. All hope him a speedy recovery and a longer lease on life to help fight the battles of humanity.
The Banner is very solicitous about the intelligent Negro voters, but those same Negroes' boys can't get a chance to carry the Banner. All advice and no nickels will not help the sustenance fund very much.
Some of our colored men who are whooping it up for Taft are castoffs. They applied for rations at the other counters, but were told "Tain't no taters."
The best way for Negroes to rid Negro communities of salons is to stay out of them. Find some place else to buy your groceries.
MISS EVANS MARRIES
MISS EVANS MARRIES.
Miss Katie E. Evans, of Nashville, and Mr. Robert Gover, of Tuskegee, were quietly married Sunday at Montgomery, Ala. Miss Evans is well-known in Nashville, having been reared and educated here. She is a graduate of Fisk University. At one time she occupied the position of proof-reader at the Baptist Publishing House. From this house she went to the A. M. E. S. S. Union. At the time of her marriage she was connected with the famous Tuskegee Institute in the same capacity.
Mr. Gover is an employee in the bank at the institution. He is a young man of exceptional ability and through thrift and economy has accumulated some of this world's goods. Miss Evans has spent the entire summer with her sister, Mrs. Wm. Silvers, taking a well-earned rest, and left the city Sunday morning at 2:25 for Montgomery, where she was met by Mr. Gover and a party of friends from Tuskegee. They were married in the study of the Congregational Church. Mr. and Mrs. Gover will reside at Tuskegee in the burb of Greenwood. They have a host of friends in Nashville, who wish them every happiness in life.
RUN DOWN BY STREET CAR.
Serious damages were sustained Monday by the big automobile truck belonging to the National Baptist Publishing House. It appears that the truck was on Jo Johnston avenue, returning from or going to make a delivery, when all of a sudden it was crashed into by a Jo Johnston avenue car. The chauffeur for the Publishing House auto declared that it was struck by Jo Johnston avenue car No. 111. The truck was at once disabled and was compelled to be left on the side of the street for repairs. Later on in the day while the truck was being towed to the garage at the Publishing House, being in charge of Mr. Felix White, a transfer man, and Mr. John Campbell, a machinist, it was cruck again by a Jo Johnston avenue car and entirely and almost irreparably damaged. Those in charge of the automobile state that it was car No. 110 on the Jo Johnston avenue line, and that it appeared to have been deliberately and maliciously done, as the motorman made no effort to stop the car, seeing that the automobile was being towed in and could hardly get one of the car track on a narrow escape. Dr. Boyd of the Publishing House stated that he had heard of the accident, but that he had not seen the auto truck, nor had he had the time to investigate the details of the two accidents.
ADDRESSED SUNDA BY DR. C. H. CLARK, OF M.T. OLIVE BAPIST. "Let the Young Men Rise," was the subject of Dr. C. H. Clark, pastor of M.T. Olive Baptist Church of this city, in an address delivered to the Y. M. C.A. Sunday afternoon in the Johnson Building, on Cedar street. The address was one of the series of lectures to men, being given under the auspices of the colored department of the Young Men's Christian Association. Dr. Clark is one of the most prominent ministers of the Negro Baptist Convention, and is pastor of the largest colored congregation in Nashville. The Metoka Quartette, of M.T. Olive Church, rendered several selections that were enjoyed by the audience of men, the singing being led by T. Clay Moore, a prominent young layman. Prof. H. L. Keith, of the committee of management of the association, presided.

Every one in Nashville is well acquainted with Frank Johnson, the versatile and brainy quarterback, being one of the members of the famous 1907 "Cameron Machine."
Coach Davis will send one of the fastest teams ever composed of High School boys against Fisk Saturday, October 19, on Fisk campus. The line-up against Fisk Saturday will be: McGavock, L. E.; Mayberry, L. T.; Green and Smith, L. G.; Majors and Cole, R. G.; Broks, R. T.; Dixon, R. E.; F. Johnson, Q. B.; Cant, Perkins and A. Johnson, L. H.; Cole and Curran, F. B.; Back and Lewis, R. H.; Pruett, C. We are expecting one of the largest crowds of the season out. Many of the promising subs will get a chance in Saturday's game in eluding Turner, Stockell and Patey. The defense of this team is practically a stonewall.
Assistant Coaches Duncan and Ira Davis are helping develop a strong defensive line. Every member improves as each play goes off. Among the men showing well are: Curran, who was moved from center to fullback; Pruett, the big center, who weighs about 180 pounds. McGavock is playing a strong game at left end, and Mayberry at tackle is a power on the defense. Box Lewis is one of the greatest throwers of the forward pass the game has ever seen. He throws accurately almost any distance, being able to throw the ball accurately 50 yards.

Miladi's Note Book.
Dear Sir—I was employed by M. Ryan of Nashville, Tenn., for eleven years, and was in good health up until about a year ago, when I became unable to do anything at all. About six months ago the doctors pronounced my case as tuberculosis, and I went under the treatment of one of the best doctors in Nashville, but his medicine did not seem to do me any good at all. I got worse and worse every day. I then heard of J. C. Johnson and his great treatment and began taking his treatment on August 21, and now I feel like a new man. I will advise all who have my trouble to try J. C. Johnson's treatment. I could not sleep well and had no appetite until I began his treatment. I have been taking the medicine for one month to day, and can say that I can rest well at night and have a good appetite. I am able to go to work.

Mohicans.
The Mohican Club, an organization of young men, which has been holding its meetings at 719 Jefferson street, has moved into its new quarters, at 929 Jackson street. The club held its first meeting in their new home last Thursday evening. The opening of this club's new home was carried out in a very unique and interesting manner. An excellent program had been arranged and was carried out in a most entertaining way. The president, Mr. C. N. Perkins, in his usual and interesting way, opened the meeting by giving to the members words of congratulations and telling them what can be accomplished by just a little united effort. The meeting was a memorable one, and this step is a most commendable one. Several visitors were present and added testimonials to what was said. On Monday night the Mohicans were the guests of the G. G. T. Club at the residence of Miss Mattie R. Scott 1607 Fourteenth avenue. North. At this meeting the two clubs came to an agreement concerning a concert to be given in the near future by the combined clubs. They plan to present to the public an interesting and entertaining evening of eloquence and oratory. The Mohicans will probably hold dedicatory services at an early date.

THE ROCK CITY ACADEMY OF MEDICINE AND SURGERY RECOMMENDS TUBERCULOSIS.
HOSPITAL
On Sunday afternoon members of the Rock City Academy of Medicine and Surgery, after a special invitation extended by Hon H. E. Howse, Mayor, visited the Nashville and Dav
Idaho County Tuberculosis Hospital, situated five miles from public square on the Hamilton Road. On arriving at the hospital it was a revelation to those who had not seen but had only heard of this beautiful health resort. One striking feature is its enviable location, which is among and near a wealth of cedars whose emanations are conducive to healthfulness. The scenery is picturesque; the drainage is perfect; surrounings hygienic. The building, being well elevated, you lounge or loiter on the high, light, airy porches, you are gazing upon smiling valleys below, or viewing towering hills that lift their solemn heads in the distance.
Another pleasant feature is the unstinted preparations and arrangements made to take care of those who are blessed with the opportunity to be there. The wards and rooms, with their immaculate beauty, seem to inspire and insure health and longevity. The antiseptic precautions taken, the aseptic conditions maintained, the superb equipment, the salubry of the atmosphere and sunshine, all combine to resist the onslaught and ravages of any disease.
Another special feature is the fact that conveniences and comforts are accorded colored and white alike. No one has been heard to complain, but speaks in highest praise of the care and kind attention received at the hands of those in charge of the Institution. The greatest courtesy is shown strangers and visitors. He who first received the idea to design and erect such quarters for unfortunate, must surely have been inspired, and is truly a great benefactor.
The Rock City Academy of Medicine and Surgery, appreciating the interest and sincerity of the hospital authorities, and, having seen such phenomenal results obtained at this institution, urges her people to not hesitate to avail themselves of the advantages offered them when advised by their physician. Through the courtesy of Drs. Townsend, Voorhees, Hale and Singleton, the use of their cars was tendered the Association. And those who made the trip are: Drs. Townsend, Reed, Gray, Bandy, McMillan, Voorhees, Elliott, Roman Hadley, Fisher, Hale, Singleton, Lester, Bright and Faulkner.

MEHARRY NOTES
The regular monthly service of Walden University was held at the Mearray Auditorium on Sunday morning, the 13th inst., at 11 o'clock, and the sermon was preached by Dr. R. H. Boyd, of the Baptist Publishing Board, of this city. The students of the several departments of the university, together with a large number of the people of the city, were in attendance. Dr. Boyd took occasion to impress the student body that it devolved on them to prepare themselves not for the purpose of going forth into the world in quest of financial prosperity and selfish interests, but that it was their bounded duty to foster the spirit of altruism and to take an active part in the contribution of material for the true and permanent development of the race. He further declared that unless they clothed themselves with the armour of Christianity, they could not hope to take their defensive stand in the fierce battle of life.
Meharry Y. M. C. A. was addressed on Sunday afternoon, 13th inst., by Rev. J. H. Hubbard, D. D., assistant secretary of the Stewart Missionary Foundation. In a very lucid manner, the reverend gentleman delineated the plan of the work of this institution and prayed for a more widespread missionary spirit among the members of the colored race.
Consequent upon announcement Bishop Henderson, newly elected head of the Methodist Episcopal Church, visited Walden University on Monday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, when he met the students of that institution and those of the Meharry College assembled at Meharry Auditorium. The prelate was introduced by Dr. G. W. Hubbard, dean of Meharry Medical College. Addressing his audience, he impressed them with the fact that great responsibilities rested on them as possessors of God's gifts. He declared that it devolved on them to make of themselves the best men and women possible rather than content themselves with mediocrity. Continuing his address he described to the students in a very illustrative manner, their duty to God, the Creator, Redeemer and Father, declaring that only by living lives of consecration and devotion to the service of the Great Master could they feel that they were doing their duty in this life. The students were greatly edified by the address and left the auditorium with renewed zeal and inspiration from the words of wisdom which they heard.
The annual reception of the Young Men's Christian Association of Meharry Medical College was held at Meharry Auditorium on Friday, the 11th inst., at 8 o'clock in the evening, when Rev. S. H. J. David, president of the association, took the chair. The Faculty was represented by Dr. J. H. Holman, Professor of Bacteriology. There were present representatives of the colored Y. M. C. A. of the city, also of Fisk and Walden Universities, all of whom spoke encouragingly to the new students, invited them to the meetings of their associations and exhorted them to paths of rectitude during their sojourn in the city. On behalf of the Y. M. C. A. at Meharry, Mr. L. Elias Williams, of the senior class, extended the welcome. In part he said:
"The greatness of this institution is in an incalculable degree due to the religious zeal of the dean and other members of its faculty, therefore let me inculcate upon you the absolute necessity of emulating their example by identifying yourselves with the Y.

upon you to strenuously endeavor by assiduous application to so fit yourselves that when you go forth into the world and are confronted with the sterner realities and the exigencies and all possible contingencies of life, you will not be found wanting." The musical part of the program was excellent. A solo was sung by Mr. H. Harvey Walker, of the senior medical class. The new students were represented on the program by Mr. J. Lawson, who in a neat little speech made the response to the welcome of the association. The regular program was followed by a social, during which refreshments were served and the new students were privileged to meet the young ladies of Walden University.
The election of officers of the senior medical class was held at the auditorium on Tuesday afternoon, the 15th inst., at 1 o'clock. The candidates for the respective offices had made a vigorous campaign, and the business of the election had been under deliberation before the close of last session, so that the plans of the great task were quite mature, and when at 2 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon the votes were cast and the official count made, the following result was shown: R. E. Smith, president, Parsons, Kans; B. E. Howell, vice president, Dallas, Tex.; Mabel Smith, secretary, Jackson, Miss.; M. J. Mosley, assistant secretary, Crockett, Texas; J. F. Boddie, treasurer, Milledgeville, Ga.

Here is a picture of the building of Butler Lodge No. 98, K. of P., and Lone Star Court, No. 78, with the Court and Lodge membership located at Aspen Hill, Tenn. These Knights and Calanthes as you see have a splendid hall built on the co-operative plan. Each member giving an allotted number of days to its construction; they gave their time and teams free. The lower floor is used by the various churches of the community for entertainments without charge. Since the completion of the building the membership of Butler Lodge No. 98 has increased by leaps and bounds.

PANAMA MISSIONARIES SPEAK.
With the conclusion that they were at home and in the hands of friends, in the midst of earnest and sympathetic workers, with language simple yet inspiring, Rev. and Mrs. R. H. Thorbourne, of Ancon, Canal Zone, Panama, told the simple story of how they were endeavoring to spread the gospel and preach right living in the Republic of Panama.
The addresses were delivered at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Wednesday night before an audience that was attentive, appreciative and representative. Dr. Clark in introducing the Secretary of the Home Mission Board, Rev. Dr. Boyd served notice upon the citizens of Nashville and his congregation, in particular, that in the future Nashville would pay more attention to the work on home fields, and that it was the consensus of opinion at the Ministers' Conference Monday that the forty odd Baptist churches in this city would begin this year to take up in dividally and collectively the burden of carrying the Gospel into portions of the United States, where it is most needed.
After being introduced, Dr. Boyd told how Rev. Mr. Thorbourne had come to him after he was graduated from college and asked that he be sent as a missionary to Panama, and how he labored with the Board at Washington, D. C., during the session of the Convention held there, finally succeeding in getting their consent to send him to that new section of the country upon which the eyes of the world seemed focused, and how, after five years of earnest effort, Rev. Thorbourne has been able to bring out of the Republic of Panama a report that is not only inspiring but astounding because of its size.
"Beginning the work there," says Dr. Boyd, "Rev. Mr. Thorbourne had not a member and not a place to worship, but within few years through the heroic efforts of the Board, and the great work done by Rev. and Mrs. Thorbourne, they have built three churches on property owned by the Board, they are operating a day school, conducting three Sunday-schools and at the same time have provided a five-room parsonage for themselves."
Dr. Boyd then introduced Mrs. Thourbourne, whose home was formerly in Nashville. She told of the work that she was engaged in, in behalf of the women and children. "I am teaching them the American women's way of housekeeping, of economy, of thrift, industry and of home-making, not falling at the same time to attempt to instill in them the Christ-like spirit of humility which can only make devoted Christian women. I have a church, Rev. Thourbourne has a church, and we have a church. I work at mine, he works at his, and we work at ours."
Rev. Thorbourne was then introduced and in a characteristic, yet modest manner, told in detail of the struggles he has had, the obstacles he has overcome, modestly stating the success that has come to the work of the denomination through the efforts of himself and wife. He related that the first "bantism by immersion," as Bantists term it, ever witnessed in the Republic of Panama, was administered by him, in the presence of five thousand people from

all parts of the world, who live on the Zone and Panama. He described the amount of curiosity that the native Panamanian had in the approaching ceremony, then described the building of the first church in Panama City, saying that the son of the President of the Republic, the Chief Engineer of the Republic of Panama and some of the members of the Isthmian Canal Commission, officiated in the corner-stone laying. There were several white people in the audience who took much interest in the addresses. After they were finished, Rev. Thorbourne was asked many questions about the customs, habits and mode of living and of conditions in general in the Republic and on the Zone, all of which he answered readily. After this a liberal collection was taken while quite a number of pledges for cash and clothing were taken.
On Wednesday night at the Second Baptist Church, pastored by Rev. G. B. Taylor, a similar service was held, and an equally large crowd turned out, because, on the south side the meeting had been fairly well advertised, and Rev. Taylor being a member of the Board, they were able to make an equally fair showing.
On Sunday, October 13th, Rev. Thorbourne addressed the Sunday-School Union, speaking on "Little Lumps of Undeveloped Possibilities." The meeting was held at the Pilgrim Emanuel Baptist Church, Rev. R. D. Black, pastor. The church and the Sunday-School Union were appreciative of the missionary address to the extent that they gave a liberal cash donation and aside from this, every superintendent, of a Sunday-school present pledged his school for a certain amount for the work in Panama. Monday night Rev. and Mrs. Thorbourne appeared at the First Baptist Church, East Nashville, pastored by the Rev. D. Davenport Bushell. The principal address was delivered by Mrs. Thorbourne. She delivered a message filled with information descriptive of the conditions of the women on the Canal Zone and in the Republic, being followed by Rev. Thorbourne, whose remarks were general. The audience gave evidence of their interest and pledged themselves to support the work and to keep in constant communication with the two young people that Nashville has sent to Central America to carry the gospel of Christ.
On Thursday night, the 17th, a similar meeting was held at the North Third Avenue Bantist Church, Rev. J. Slaughter, pastor. The last meeting, declared Dr. Bovd, Secretary of the Home Mission Board, positively closes the appearance of these two missionaries in Nashville during their present visit, as they would have to make points in West Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana. The date of sailing is set for October 20th, but their itinerary, as given out by the Secretary, is October 20th, Atlanta, Ga.; October 23, Jackson, Tenn.; October 24th, Birmingham, Ala.; October 25th and 26th, Montgomery; October 27th, Mobile, Ala.; October 28th and 29th, New Orleans, La. They sell on the morning of the 20th at 10 o'clock from New Orleans Rico. As a fitting climax of their to Panama via Port Limon, Costa columba in the city, the Ministers' Conference in the city, the Ministers' Conference in the record Monday and pledged themselves to raise several hundred dollars to continue the work so successfully launched in Panama by the Home Mission Board.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1912.
BISHOP AND MRS. W. D. CHAP.
PELLE.
A dozen years of married life, during which time prosperity and good fortune mingled with the settements that come on the matrimonial sea, was celebrated by Bishop and Mrs. W. D. Chappelle at their residence, 1208 Harding street, Columbia, S. C., on Wednesday evening, October 9th, Miss R. C. Palmer was married to Rev. W. D. Chappelle on October 9, 1900. The celebration began at 8 p. m. and continued until 11:30. A host of friends were present and letters of congratulation came from every part of the United States.
HOME FOR AGED PURCHASED
CARRYING FOR AGED PURCHASED.
Carrying the pledge to take care of the aged and infirm members of the church, seeing to it that their every want is supplied conforming with as near as possible the commandment to "honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God givev thee," the Mt. Olive Baptist Church has purchased a home out on High street, to be known as the Poor Saints' Home. It is a seven room dwelling with the conveniences of the present city improvements. In this house from now on will be housed as well as fed the aged and infirmed gospel veterans, men and women, who have been, as it were, forced to "lay their armour down," placing it upon younger shoulders and for the present at least rest for a short while before being called a dollar while before being called to a early date. To the thousand dollars is said to be the purchase price of the Poor Saints' Home. The lot is large enough to make all of the improvements that might be demanded of the home in the near future. The matter of the purchasing was confirmed and ratified at a recent meeting of the officers and members of the church. Plans for the opening at an early date are now under way. The purchasing of the home and the looking to the immediate care of the saitued poor is the culmination of the result of twenty years of pastoral work in the city of Nashville by the Rev. C. H. Clark. This fact was beautifully brought out at the twentth anniversary sermon delivered at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church Sunday afternoon by the Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., Secretary of the Baptist Publishing and Home Mistion Boards of the National Baptist Convention, who had been invited to preach the sermon in the presence of more than twelve hundred members and visitors. The occasion for an nouncing the purchase of the home was set on the first Sunday in the afternoon, as on these occasions practically the entire membership endeavors to get to their seats for the administering of the Lord's Sup per. During the anniversary week which is soon to be observed, the Old Folk's Home will receive first attention.
Contrary to the practice of most of great churches that have members who have accumulated wealth, the Mt. Olive Baptist has built up a reputation for making the unfortunate feel that they are greatly blessed when in their midst. The ministers of all denominations preach this is as Christ would have it, and as the church represents Him if should do those things which He would do in caring for the unfortunate. The public will be invited in the near future to take part in a house warming for the Poor Saints.

IN MEMORY OF DR PHYH:
In honor of the memory of the late Dr. R. F. Boyd, of this city, a memorial service was held at Meharry Auditorium on Sunday afternoon, the 6th inst., when the student body of the institution and a large and representative number of the people of the city assembled to pay tributes of respect to the memory of one who was undoubtedly a great leader of his race. Dr. Boyd was a surgeon of the first rank, a member of the faculty of Meharry Medical College, and at the head of more Negro organizations than any other colored man in this state. The eulogies expressed on this occasion were many, and testified to the great esteem in which the deceased was held.
DR. PUSEY RETURNS FROM
PANAMA.
Dr. Z. G. Pusey, of the faculty of Meharyan Dental College, has just returned from his vacation, which he spent at his native home, San Andros Island, Republic of Panama. During his stay there, the doctor was kept busy in the practice of his profession, so that he returns to us not only refreshed from the pleasures of his visits, but also greatly equipped with an increased store of professional knowledge. The doctor was also instrumental in adding to the new stu
dents of Pisk University, in bringing three young men from his home to pursue a course at that center of learning.

GET PRESENTS FOR THE LITTLE ONES FIRST.
Have you selected the toys for your children's Christmas presents? If you have not, then do so at once. Children should be the idols of every home. A contented child, a happy child, a child who has not been reared to make the time heavy or the hours long around the home, is a diamond in the rough to any home. What child is it who does not relish the caressing of the little doll? The more the doll resembles the child or the child's mother the more affection is placed upon the toy. Why not get your child one of the Negro dolls sold by the National Negro Doll Company, Nashville, Tenn? The prices range from $1 up to $8.50, express charges paid. If you have not seen the illustrated catalogue, send 5 cents to the National Negro Doll Company, Nashville, Tenn.*
STANDARDS OF BEAUTY
"I do not believe in allowing any race to set the standard of beauty for my race. I would not attempt to say that any other nation should measure their standard of beauty by my ideals no more than I could say to a mother, who is pressing affectionately to her bosom her only child, that this child was not the most beautiful of all children, for indeed it appears to the mother that way. Thus it is."
The above is a statement made by one of the best known women of the United States in discussing why Negro dolls for Negro children should be the watchword of every home in the race. She predicted that the time was not far distant when these beautiful Negro dolls, commonly expressed in the slang terms as "tantalizing browns," would find their way into the homes of all the members of the race, whether they had children or not. The dolls especially sent out by the National Negro Doll Company, located at Nashville, Tenn., are creating the sensations of the time. The company declared that already orders for the coming holiday season have begun to come in rapidly, and that they felt confident of being able to supply the demand and to take care of the business if it is sent in properly*
HOME FOR AGED PURCHASED.

In this house from now on will be housed as well as fed the aged and infirm gospel veterans, men and women, who have been, as it was, forced to "lay their armour down," placing it upon younger shoulders and for the present at least rest for a short while before being called from labor to reward. Two thousand dollars is said to be the purchase price of the Poor Saints' Home. The lot is large enough to make all of the improvements that might be demanded of the home in the near future. The matter of the purchasing was confirmed and ratified at a recent meeting of the officers and the church. Plans for the opening at an early date are now under way. The purchase of the home and the looking to the immediate care of the sainted poor is the culmination of the result of twenty years of pastoral work in the city of Nashville by the Rev. Dr. C. H.
