NEIGHBORHOOD UNION FORMED
NEIGHBORHOOD UNION FORMED
RESIDENTS OF THE NORTH END
ORGANIZE.
Form a Neighborhood Union for Community Betterment—Branch of the Nashville League on Conditions Among Negroes.
The residents of Northwest Nashville are aroused and are joining themselves together to do what they can as a united community for the betterment of the district. An end thusastic meeting was held last Monday night at Pleasant Green Baptist Church and a neighborhood Union was formed as a permanent united branch of the Nashville League on Conditions Among Negroes.
The Nashville League was organized last January as a movement to unite all the social betterment activities of the colored people of the city. Last summer it conducted a Home Beautiful Movement by offering prizes in the Third and Fourteenth wards of the city. This has now been followed up by an organization of this Neighborhood Union in the North End which is the first branch in a plan to organize in a similar way each of the Negro neighborhoods on the city. It is the effort to have the residents of each of the neighborhoods come together in a united effort to better the conditions of their own neighborhoo d. Each of these branch unions will have representatives in a central executive body of the Nashville League which covers the entire city.
This Nashville League has also this week opened a kindergarten in the "Fisk Flats," corner Eighteenth avenue and Cedar street, to reach the large number of needy children in the district bounded by Twelfth and Twentieth avenues, North, and Patterson and Cedar streets. Already the enrollment has taxed the capacity of the quarters provided for the kindergarten. It is the plan of the league a develop work in this locality until it will reach into the homes of the neighborhood for social uplift. At the formation of the Neighborhood Union last Monday night the following four committees were named to take up the pieces of betterment indicated: On Street Lights and Sewerage, on Streets and Police Patrol, on Public School Buildings and Play grounds and on Home Beautifying.
A quartet of Fisk students was present at the meeting and enlivened the exercise with beautiful Jubilee and College songs. A short constitution was adopted and the Union adjourned to meet Monday night. November 18, at the Pleasant Green Baptist Church to elect officers and take up other important matters. The Nashville League on Conditions Among Negroes is a branch of a National organization which has developed social work among colored people in the cities of the United States. This national body is known as the National League on Conditions Among Negroes, with headquarters in New York City. It is the comprehensive purpose stated as follows: "To bring about co-ordination and co-operation among existing agencies and organizations for improving the industrial, economic, social and spiritual conditions of Negroes and to develop other agencies and organizations where necessary; to secure and train Negro social workers; to make studies of the industrial, economic, social and spiritual conditions among Negroes and in general to promote, encourage, assist and engage in any and all kinds of work for improving the industrial, economic, social and spiritual conditions among Negroes."
In carrying out this object the National League has already established branches in five of the principal cities of the country and has plans on foot for similar work in other cities. To meet the demand for skilled leaders in this work the National League is affiliated with Atlanta Baptist College, Atlanta, Ga.; Talladega College, Taladega, Ala., and Fisk University, in developing courses of study which will prepare the best minds for careers as expert social workers. To such graduates of the Negro colleges as she w special fitness for this work, the League furnishes fellowships for further work and practical experience in New York and Chicago. Dun of the past year two college graduates were trained at the New York School of Philanthropy. One of these, a graduate of Flisk University, Miss Ellie A. Walls, is now in the city for a few months working in cooperation with the Nashville League and with the Department of Social Science at Flisk University.
Some of the officers of the local league in Nashville are: Dr. George E. Haynes, president; Prof. T. B. Hardiman, Secretary; Dr. A. M. Townsend, Treasurer.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
Sunday, November 10th, is "Woman's Day at the First Baptist Church. Rev. W. S. Ellington, will preach a griselian sermon to the women Sunday morning. To this service the public in general is invited, but especially the women. The members are working hard to make the rally on the third Sunday the most successful in the history of the church.
NASHVILLE GLOBE.
DEMOGRATS IN CONTROL
WILL HAVE MAJORITY IN BOTH HOUSES.
Governor's Race in Doubt—Advantage Seems to Be In Gov. Hooper's Favor—Several New Faces Will Be Seen—Bull Moosers Have Four Members.
Figures given herewith were taken from results received at The Democrat once up to 10 o'clock Wednesday night. They show that the Democrats have a clear majority of both branches of the Legislature, and that they organize both the Senate and the House.
The Legislative bodies have been conceded to be Democratic by practically every daily in the State and the various managers are of almost one opinion on this subject. The result is still in doubt in the Twenty-fifth Floterial District. Early returns indicate that the Independent candidate has won over J. M. Rushin, Democratic nominee, but later reports have it that Rushin is victorious. In event that Rushin wins that would give the Democrats one more majority, making fifty-eight members, and would give the Independents one less in the House, making them come up with only thirteen members, not counting the Republi cans.

NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1912
WALLS OF CITY RESERVOIR BREAK
WALLS OF CITY RESERVOIR BREAK
TWO BIG APERTURES IN MASSIVE STRUCTURE.
Escape of Residents Little Short of Miraculous — High Embankments
Break the Water—City Will Rebuild Walls—No Water
Again the imprefections of man are evidenced in the breaking of the city reservoir walls, but one fact impresses itself upon the mind of the visitors to the scene of the early morning deluge—the fact that no lives were lost. With a roar like a clyclone, the southeast wall of the east basin of the reservoir, which contained 26,000,000 gallons of water, gave way shortly after midnight, and for thirty minutes or more that section of the city south and east of the reservoir was swept by the flood. Brick walls caved before the mighty onrush; huge trees were chewed to bits by the washing of heavy rocks, by some of them weighing tons, against their trunks, while smaller trees were uprooted and hurled against residences. Frame residences were lifted from their foundations and hurled against trees and other houses. Some of the walls were crushed like eggshells, and the escape of the occupants is nothing short of miraculous. Many residents along Eighth Avenue, Argyle, Fairview, Lynnwood and Beech Avenues are to-day visiting among their more fortunate neighbors, while their household effects are scattered for blocks and their former residences are lodged against trees or smashed into splinters as a result of the force of the water. The damage would be hard to estimate, but the property loss will reach way into the thousands.
Many harrowing stories are told by those who were caught in the flood, and the escape of many is truly hair-raising. With lights out and groping in the darkness, women and children—some of them mere infants—were hurled against articles of furniture and nearly drowned before their menfolk could get them into places of safety. Their homes were filled with debris and mud several inches thick cover pieces of handsome furniture.
TWO BIG APERTURES.
Heavy Masonry of Reservoir Ripped From Top to Base.
The heavy wall of the east basin of the reservoir on the east and southeastern end is split from top to foundation. The gap on the east is about ten feet in width and was apparently caused when the larger aperture, about 100 feet further south, caused the intervening wall to swing around. The break and the ten-foot aperture still

The Great Wall of China, under attack by the Japanese.
LARGE BREAK IN THE WALL ON THE SOUTHEAST SIDE
stand, and is swinging inward about four feet. The main break, the one to the south, is about 100 feet in width, and a deep hole under the base of the wall caused certain persons who examined the wall to express the opinion that the wall has slipped on its foundation. This foundation at the base of the wall apparently is of soft limestone or soapstone, and is perfectly smooth where that part of the wall came loose.
The heavy limestone embedded in cement looks as though it might have withstood many times the amount of pressure against it. Portions of the wall were washed away, and the high embankment about the reservoir walls scattered over the adjoining sections of country for blocks and blocks.
NO WATER FAMINE.
"There need be no worry for fear of a water famine," said Superintendent George Reyer of the Water Works Department. "The west basin holds some 26,000,000 gallons of water, and that will be ample for the city's consumption. It's just as though we were cleaning the east basin." continued Capt. Reyer. "When we clean one of the basins, the city gets its supply for months from the other basin." This was the year for the east basin to be cleaned, but for some reason it was decided some weeks ago that the reservoir would not be cleaned this year. It may have been that in the event the city had followed the usual rule and cleaned the east basin the weak place in the wall might have been discovered—then, again, it might not have been.
FT. CASINO SITE.
City Reservoir Stands on Historic Grounds
The City Reservoir stands on the site of old Fort Casino. It was begun August 24, 1886, and the work was completed August 24, 1889. Its capacity is 51,000,000 gallons, and the city erected it at a cost of $346,525.21. The mammoth basin was completed during the administration of Mayor Pink McCarver. Judge Robert Ewings was at that time a member of the Board of Public Works. When the works about Nashville were erected in 1863, under the direction of Gen Negley, the hill on which the reservoir stands was made the location of Fort Casino and this is not so very far from Old Fort Negley, whose ruins can be seen from the reservoir looking eastward. Mr. James St. Clair Morton was the engineer in charge of the building of the forts. When Hood's forces appeared to the south of Nashville in December, 1864, and Thomas finally gave him battle, it was the guns of Fort Casino and its neighbor, Fort Negley, which opened the fight.
HAD ALWAYS LEAKED.
The reservoir had leaked since it was built. The seepage was once the cause of an investigation by a special committee, but nothing was ever done about it. For years there has been a seepage from the reservoir, but nobody seemed to regard it as probable that the big walls would ever give way.
That the recent leakage was regarded as sufficient to justify some attention by the city officials is borne out in the statement of Capt. Reyer that no later than Saturday the water in the east basin had been lowered fifteen feet and all cracks in the walls cemented. The officials doubtless expected to find any weak places in the wall at the top, for it was generally thought that nothing could ever cause the thirty feet of solid masonry at the bottom to give way. The wear of the little seep in the bottom of the wall, however, which may have been going on since the
EAST SIDE.
410 VOTES CERTAIN.
Wilson had not polled a majority of the votes cast throughout the country. Estimates ranged from a small majority for all votes to figure nearly one million below a majority. The popular votes, however, would in no way affect his election or his complete control of the electoral college should it show his total to be less than that of the combined vote for Roosevelt and Taft.
There were many surprises throughout the day and night. Early in the day New Hampshire, first credited to Taft, went definitely into the Wilson column with a majority of about 1,500 for the democratic candidate. Returns from Idaho, which came in scattering from early in the day, favored Wilson so strongly as to create the belief that it would give him its electoral vote, but late returns made it the third state to go certainly for President Taft.

(By Associated Press.)
New ork, Nov. 6.—Returns up to a late hour seemed to assure Wilson and Marshall more than 400 votes in the electoral college. Iowa and Kansas which, with Minnesota, South Dakota and Wyoming, were in the "doubtful" column, in the day, seemed almost sure tonight to swell the democratic total in the final alignment of states.
Possibilities of a further gain remained for Wilson through the accession of both Wyoming and Minnesota. In the former state he led Taft, by a small margin with one-third of the vote tabulated and in the latter was a few hundred votes ahead of Roosevelt in a similar proportion of the total.
On the other hand late figures from South Dakota tended to assure the state to Roosevelt, the progressive candidate, heading by a fair margin and maintaining his lead fairly well, on added returns.
(By Associated Press.)
New ork, Nov. 6.—Only the uncertainty of a few close states whose electoral vote in no way can affect the election of Wilson and Marshall; speculation over the popular vote of the three presidential candidates, and the complexion or legislatures that will name United States senators, held interest tonight in the final returns of yesterday's general election.
The total of the republican electoral column apparently was fixed at the twelve votes of Idaho, Utah and Vermont, but the footing of the Wilson and Roosevelt columns flickered alternately during the afternoon and night, until President elect Wilson had 410 certain votes in the electoral college; Colonel Roosevelt 89, and President Taft 12. All of the doubtful states, except South Dakota gave more or less certain indications during the night of landing in the Wilson column, while South Dakota returns showed a general trend to ward a Roosevelt plurality.
POPULAR VOTE.
Estimates of the popular vote polled by Governor Wilson ranged through many millions during the day. It was found impossible to compute with any of the presidential candidates, and it will be a number of days until the counting of the three-cornered contest in the different states is concluded and an accurate tabulation of the vote made possible.
Assertions were made today from several quarters where an effort had been made to gather preliminary popular vote gures that Governor big basin was completed, in all probability caused the wall to slip on its foundation—and then it was all over.
Two row boats are swinging from the top of the reservoir wall on the inside, like fish caught on a hook, where the receding water left them high and dry.
About two hundred yards south, near Lynnwood Avenue, there is another row boat which was carried along with the flood. The bow of the boat is dented by the impact with rocks and trees and it stands high and dry on a pile of rocks. Underneath the reservoir wall is another boat, where the leaning section of the wall seems to be waiting for a chance to topple and crush it.
TENNESSEE'S LEA-
ING NEGRO JOURNAL
No.46
BULL MOOSERS SCARED
The Roosevelt forces, watching the returns hourly as they came from Illinois, suffered a scare as the downstate democratic districts reduced Col. Roosevelt's plurality from Cook county until it promised to disappear. Late in the day a complete report from Cook county again swelled the Roosevelt majority and seemingly made certain the control of Illinois' twenty-nine votes by the progressive candidate.
Kansas, which had been conceded to Roosevelt by all interests on the preliminary returns last night, gradually slipped back during the day until it had become a question tonight whether Wilson or Roosevelt would control its ten votes.
Governor Wilson had the better of the situation in Iowa and Minnesota, where the counting still was in progress tonight, with but a narrow margin between the candidates, while South Dakota, still a doubtful state, apparently turned toward Roosevelt on the later returns.
Whether the democrats in the wide-spread victories of Tuesday have secured control, also of the United States senate is a question that will be settled for a day or two. In many states where counting still was going on tonight, the control of the legislatures is in doubt.

TAFT HAS PLANS TO KEEP THE
G. O. P. FROM PASSING OUT.
(By Associated Press.)
Columbus, O. Nov. 8—Defeated; bu far from discouraged. President Taft already has formed plans for holding together and strengthening the republican party. The plans are indefinite and still vague, but he declared to-night to friends who accompanied him north from Cincinnati that the party will continue to exist; that it will be as active as in the past an dthat there is no reason to believe that its chances of future success were not excellent. So far as the President's plan is concerned, he hopes to see organize a "national republican club," entirely apart from the republican national committee, which shall cherish the principles of the party and be a source of political activity, not only during election years, but at all times. The President spoke of the Republican club of New York, the Hamilton club of Chicago, and other organizations similar in character, and expressed the belief that through these clubs interest and loyalty could be kept alive.

NORMAL ROGER FOOTBALL GAME
:: On Saturday last the A. & I. State
Normal School, of, Nashville, Teen,
made her debut on the gridron in a
hard-fought and most interesting game
of the initial football tests of the
season when she was defeated by
Roger Williams University, $ to 3.
Thoughthe teams were about equal-
ly matched. Normal proved more act-
ive than Roger Williams, and, notwithstanding her defeat, obtained a foremost place on the list with other big elevenes of Negro colleges and universities.
All during the first half, the two giant squads played a scoreless game in the middle of the field, regardless of Normal's strenuous efforts to reach the goal by pulling off the forward pass stunt.
All during the first half the two giant squads played a scoreless game in the middle of the field, regardless of Normal's strenuous efforts to reach the goal by pulling off the forward pass stunt.
During the first of the third quarter, Roger Williams, by a well-directed and forceful attack, succeeded in breaking through Normal's line and ran thirty yards for a touchdown, scoring in their favor.
Roger Williams then punted, but Normal received the punt, and with a desperate dash, reached Roger Williams' thirty-yard line. Thus ended the third quarter.
In the beginning of the fourth quarter Normal made her way to Roger Williams' twenty-five yard line, and made a place-kick, securing a final score of 6 to 3 in favor of Roger Williams University.
The game was hard and desperately fought from beginning to end, and sent the large throng of enthusiastic spectators away with considerable doubt as to which was the better team, and notwithstanding the result, all were willing to concede that Normal in her first game, had taken her place among the foremost teams.

A Democratic Landslide
Truly this is a Democratic year. From ocean to ocean and from the Lakes to the Gulf, the people have spoken in an unmistakable way in favor of Gov. Woodrow Wilson for the high office of President of the United States, and in addition to his election it seems that the people have given him what he asked for, viz., a Congress to work with him and hold up his hands. This is a great victory for the Democratic party. And it is to be hoped that they will handle the affairs of the nation wisely.
The election of a Democratic President and Democratic Congress should not be considered as a signal for a panic in this country. True, a great panic prevailed under the last Democratic administration, but a panic also prevailed during the last administration of Col. Roosevelt, but not as long as the one under the last Democratic administration; which shows that the American people are not willing that the nation suffer that the greed of a few men may be gratified.
This great nation is able to prosper under any sane political party's administration. The Democratic party is the oldest party in this country. And it seems reasonable to believe that the men in that party should by this time be sufficiently drilled in the school of politics to handle the machinery of the government. We believe it will be proven so in this instance. For it does not seem possible that the leaders of the Democratic party can be blind to the demands of the people.
Mr. Wilson has said on several occasions in his campaign that he was not a free-trader, and if elected would not do anything to disturb legitimate business. It is intimated by some that the money power of the country will bring on a panic because of the Democratic administration. If a few men have the power to do such a thing, and if they should attempt to do so, such men should be handled by the Federal Government in a way to convince all others that the rights of people must be respected. The success of the Democratic party and the showing made by the Progressive party bespeaks the death knell of the Republican party. President Taft himself admits that the party must be reorganized. Mr. Roosevelt will doubtless keep his party before the people and the manner in which they responded to the new doctrines in the short space of three months is sufficient evidence to make believe that in the next four years the contest will not be between the Republican and Democratic parties, but the National Progressive and Democratic parties. The Progressives made a splendid showing, so much so that it goes without saying that even in the next Congressional election the new party will wield a great influence. The future of the Democratic party will depend largely upon the success or failure of the Wilson administration.
Damaging Attitude
There are many unjust attitudes assumed by individuals and races against otherindividuals and races; but we do not believe there is a more unjust attitude than to assume that a whole race is blamable for the acts of an individual. This attitude is largely held by the white people of this nation against black people. For instance, if one Negro commits a crime there are scores of white people who look with scorn upon the Negro race as a whole. There have been instances when the crime committed by a Negro caused an ill-feeling by the whites towards Negroes a thousand miles away, when, in fact, neither party knew anything about the affair.
This condition has been allowed to obtain until it has become a part of the custom of Negroes toward each other, and is having a tendency to weaken the race and to discourage those who are struggling upward in the realm of life. The white man assumes this attitude toward the Negro for the purpose of creating sentiment. He knows there is not an iota of truth or justice in his attitude, but on the other hand, he knows that it will have its effect and will prey upon the minds of the weak. Sometimes well-meaning men allow themselves to be guilty of this practice by yielding to the desire to gain popular favor with the masses.
But while the white man is, in a sense, making sport of his attitude, some Negroes take it seriously. It is too oftenthe case that a Negro who has succeeded in business or in a profession, reaches the point where he can see no good in any other Negro. For instance, a Negro man opens an office and employs a stenographer. In the first place, he will employ a person of fickle mind or of bad habits, one who will not be attentive to business, or one who strives to be attentive but is not adapted to such work. It is often the case that this Negro who has reached the point to be in need of an office clerk, brings in play that false attitude that is often assumed by the white man and the successful Negro concludes that all other Negroes are not worth their room in the world. And oftimes they are heard to remark in public that it is absolutely impossible to find a Negro who is painstaking or who has business ability. This is a silly attitude and a dangerous conclusion to be reached by anyone. Because one clerk cannot do a certain line of work is no reason whatever to suppose that another cannot.
Negro business and professional men will have to learn that all people are not adapted to the same thing; that it is absolutely impossible for any man, white or black, however brilliant he may be, to fathom the minds of other people, and the only way it can be known whether this or that person can do a certain line of work is to give them a trial. And if in the first case a failure is made in the selection of a clerk, Negroes must learn to have the courage and common sense to get rid of that individual and try another one. And if the second is not competent, get the third, and a fourth, if necessary, and on until a competent clerk is secured.
The white people of this nation are doing the Negro a great injustice in their habit of blaming the race for the acts of individuals; for, while they use it as a means to an end, too many of our men take the matter seriously and make themselves disgusting in proclaiming the whole race worthless with one exception, and that exception being the individual man.
The Reservoir Break.
The catastrophe that happened in this city Monday night was remarkable as well as deplorable. It was remarkable that no lives were destroyed, and deplorable that such great damage was done to property. The rocks and debris piled around the base of the reservoir years ago saved the lives of many people and a great deal of property.
We do not consider it fair to blame any particular individual for this accident, for the reservoir was the work of man, and all of the handicrafts of the human family perish with time. When this reservoir was constructed it was not expected that it would last forever. True, people forget the age of such concerns. When man looks upon a great mass of stone carefully cut and laid in cement, the first impression is that it is everlasting; and so the residents around the reservoir had lost all memory of the number of years that great basin had held fifty million gallons of water.
We all should be thankful that no lives were lost, and the citizens of Nashville should join as one man to restore the city's loss.

FOOTBALL
Special to the Globe.
Huntsville, Ala. Nov. 2.—In a hard-fought game of football the Talladega eleven to-day defeated the A. & M College at Normal by a score of 6 to 0. The game was full of intense interest and excitement from beginning to end.
The game was called at three o'clock. Talladega won the toss and received kick-off. The A. & M. College team defended the cast goal. Harney of Normal kicked off to Talladega's twenty-yard line. Frazier advanced three yards. In a series of line plunges and end runs, Talladega gained eleven yards. The ball was then ost to Normal, by a fumble by Jones. Normal was held for downs and punted to Talladega's thirty-yard line. Talladega advanced to Normal's twenty-yard line. The quarter ended.
Second—Sides changed roals. Normal's line became invincible; Talladega lost two downs. After an incomplete forward pass, Normal punted to the center of the field. The quarter ended in the A. & M. College territory.
Third—Teams again changed goals. Normal received the kick-off; Clark fumbled. Talladega received the ball. It was carried to Normal's twenty-yard line, where, after four unsuccessful attempts to gain, Talladega lost the ball. Portlock of Normal made a beautiful forward pass. Harney catching the ball, carried it to Talladega's forty-yard line. Several plays in which Hunter, Wheels, Simpson and Clark, of Normal; Tate, Savage, Jones and Bryant, of Talladega distinguished themselves. The quarter ended with Talladega in possession of the ball.
Fourth — Tallageda opened the fourth quarter by an end run to Normal's twenty-five yard line. Here a fake play and a forward pass carried the ball over the goal line for the first and only score of the game. Tallageda failed to kick goal. With three minutes to play the teams lined up. Normal received the kick-off. Portlock advanced to the forty-yard line. The game ended in Normal's territory in a fierce struggle of the two teams for the possession of the ball. The following is the line-up of the teams: Tallageda. Position. Normal. Moore . . . Center . . . Clark Coles . . . Guard, right . . . Falls Wright . . . Guard, left . . . Golson Bryant . . .

I. H. T. G. M. Notes.
Misses Blanche Atwood and Blanche Randals were joint hostesses of an attractively-planned Hallowe'en party on Saturday evening at the home of Miss Randals on First avenue, South Spooks, black cats, jack-o'-lanterns and other emblems of the season were effectively carried out in the decorations. A number of amusing Hallowe'en games were played, among which was a cat contest. Three prizes were awarded in this contest. They were boxes of candy and a tiny black cat. Mr. J. W. Thomas, Miss Westlew Burns and Miss Beatrice Walker won the prizes, respectively. A popular feature of the evening was the reading of writen prophecies presented each guest on little cards, by an old witch who occupied a corner of one of the parors. Refreshments were served in two courses. The club colors, yellow and white, were prettily featured in the ice-course and the favors. The favors were little yellow cups filled with candy and nuts. Those enjoying the hospitalities of Misses Atwood and Randals were the club membership. Misses Edna Colston, Westlew Burns, Amie Jones, Messrs. J. W Thomas, J. Simpson, Jordan, Harrison, Ferguson, F. Wilson, Crawford Strain, Moore and E T. Page. The next social meeting will be with the Misses Banks, November 30th.

The young ladies who bear the official honors of the club for the present social year are Misses B. Atwood, President; N. E. Murrell, Vice President; B. Randals, Secretary; B. M. Davis, Treasurer; F. M. Banks, Reporter.

Hubbard Hospital Club
The Hubbard Hospital Club met Monday evening, November 4th, in the reception room of the hospital, with an unusual large attendance. As the hospital is now nearing completion, the ladies are arranging for the furnishing of the new wing. Dr. Hubbard and Mr. Wm. Saunders were the guests of the evening. Dr. Hubbard spoke very encouragingly of the good and faithful work done by the ladies, and gave them some very helpful suggestions regarding the furnishing of the new wing. Mr. Saunders, member of the senior class and author of "The Maniac," also spoke in glowing terms of the hospital and its work, he has done quite a bit toward alding the ladies by his dramas which have been a credit to himself and to the school.

National United Negro Doll League. Citizens of the Nation's Capital Take First Bank for Patriotism
First Rank for Patriotism.
Washington, D. C.-First place on
the pages of history, now being writen
by the Negroes of America, must
be accorded the Negroes of Washington,
D. C. for patriotism. This week
they made one of the longest strides
ever made when a committee of one
hundred was organized into a society
to be known as the "National United
Nerro Doll League."
The object of the League is to see
cure Negro dolls and furnish the people throughout the United States, through churches, Sunday-Schools and benevolent organizations as distributing agents to let the children see these dolls and the parents get them for their children.
The business men and the leaders of the people throughout the country are requested to form suordinate leagues through which pleas will be made to the mothers of the race asking that they begin to implant in the minds of their children race pride and loyalty to the race. The League also went on record as favoring the slogan "Negro dolls for Negro children" which is the slogan of the originators of this toy located in Tennessee. Another resolution was adopted urging that these dolls be pure' ased not only by the society, but by the members of the race throughout the United State from the National Negro Doll Company located at Nashville, Tennessee.
The officers elected for the term of 1912-13 are Simon P. W. Drew, President and Rev. Howard Barnes, Secretary. Other business, with an address to the country on "The Love and Devotion that Should be Pracother" was agreed upon before adment.
Y. L. L. C Entertainment
On Thursday evening at 8 o'clock, the Y. L. L. C was entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Rhodes, 1203 10th avenue, South. They were charmingly entertained by the rendition of an interesting program and just as the guests were commenting on the ability of the performers, and congratulating themselves upon the treat just enjoyed, their thoughts were are rested, their tongues stilled and their hearts almost frozen finding them selves suddenly thrown into darkness—staring with horrified eyes at the ghostly proportions of a tall white figure, with fiery eyes, who pointed with a commanding gesture into the parlor. All realized they needs must obey.
The first girl who entered gave vent to a little squall when she found each of her hands seized in the clammy clasp of cold, wet hands, of the sentinel. Just in time a voice cried out; 'I'm not scared; its nothing but Halloween'. Then all sighed with relief, knowing that they would in all probability live through whatever might befall them that night, remembering that that was the one night of all the year when spooks are given full sway and permitted to wander at will over this land of ours. In one corner of the reception room was covered a quaint little tent made of baughs and autumn leaves, where a wierd witch had taken up her temporary abode. She proved to be the 'wicked witch of Endor, who for love and not for gold did the future fate unfold.'
Hallowe'en Social.
Miss Clara M. Hightower entertained at her home, 41 Lewis street, A Halloween in Social on忆miss Rae Thompson of Topeka, Kansas, Tuesday evening, October 29th from four to eight o'clock p. m.

Hallowe'en
Quite an enjoyable Hallowe'en party was given by Mrs. A. L. Hunter in honor of Miss Rae Thompson of Topeka, Kans.
The home was becoming decorated with Jack-o-lanterns and bats while the menu consisted mostly of sea food; Fricassed oysters, devilled crabs, lobster salad, chicken tetrazzini and coffee.

Meeting of the House-Keepers' Club. A very interesting meeting of the House-Keepers Club was held at the home of Mrs. M. W. Blake, S Cannon street, Monday, October 28th, 1912. The meeting was opened in its usual manner with prayer by Mrs. Smith. The roll was called and each member responded with a quotation. After the preliminary business of the club the time was given to the visiting guest in the persons of Mrs. Eliot and Hon. J. C. Napier, who spoke quite encouragingly to the club, Mrs. Elliot's talk thouh brief was much enjoyed. Mr. Napier addressed the club at length. He encouraged the ladies in the work that they are striving to do especially along the lines of charity. His most interesting talk will go down as history of the House-Keepers Club, ever to be remembered.
At an appropriate hour the guests were invited to the dining room where an elaborate two-course menu was served. The club adjourned to meet with Mrs. J. P. Crawford, 1501 14th avenue, North, Monday, November 11th, 1912, at 3:36 p. m.

As the guests arrived they were received by Mrs. Ed Kenedy and presented to the hostess, beside the honoree, Mrs. Carter was assisted in receiving the guests by Mesdames W. O. Tate, Howard N. Robinson and Miss Mattle B. Scales. It was one of the most brilliant affairs of the season.
The reception rooms were beautifully decorated with ferns, roses and chrysanthemums. The dining table was a picture of beauty with linen, culinary, lace and cut glass. There were three large cut glass bowls filled with American beauty roses. The place gifts were American beauty rose buds.

"When You See a Negro Doll

THE WEST HALF OF THE RESERVOIR THAT WILL SUPPLY WATER FOR THE CITY.
Lengthy editorials are eschewed by papers that are "up to the minute."
Corresponding Secretary Henry Allen Boyd, who is "some secretary, too," is receiving letters daily from editors, publishers and correspondents, requesting that they be enrolled as members of the National Negro Press Association, and enclosed is the annual fee of $1.00, which pays the postage, printing and other necessary expenses of the organization. Every one of the "brethren" should be on the list and put in his appearance at Philadelphia next August.
Dr. Booker T. Washington has enthusiastically endorsed the Press Association. He recognizes publicity as the primal necessity to the success of every individual, organization or cause.
A. J. Smitherman, of Muskogee, Okla, and John L. Thompson, of Des Moines, Ia., leaders in the Western Press Association, are active forces also in the National Negro Press Association. The objects of

the two Associations are one and the same.
In all probability the new publicity law concerning the newspapers will be knocked out by the Supreme Court, where a case is now pending to test its constitutionality. Postmaster-General Hitchcock is quoted as saying that the new provision, making all sorts of absurd requirements, imposes a needless restriction upon the press of the country.
Get a grip upon the circulation of your community, brethren of the press. It is a matter of diligence, persistence and good sense, together with a delivery of the goods. The loads or responsible members of every family are connected in some way with some interest in your town. They can be reached through the church, the lodge, business or professional or social connection. Get hold of the right string and pull it for all it is worth. It will pay big. Both the advertising and the circulation of your paper can be boosted by getting around in lively fashion among

these various classes and keeping their affairs before the people. Don't waste time in complaining, offer a journal that is worth while and push it into popular notice. That is the way to make your business a "go."
The standardization of advertising is one of the issues that the Press Association is working on. In the country our papers vary from 15 cents to $1.00 per unit for advertising charges, when the difference in circulation does not justify such differences in prices. This is a serious matter and requires sober attention.
A Negro Associated Press, with a somewhat slower time, but equally as efficient in covering our field as the white organization, is one of the possibilities that may grow out of the N. N. P. A. There is no reason why with proper facilities, that any item of important news may not reach two hundred centers of publicity at the same moment. Keep this in your noodle, fellow craftsmen.
The executive committee is a "dandy!".
The Association's new stationery has been issued to the officers from the press of the National Baptist Publication House at Nashville, through the courtesy of Corresponding Secretary Henry Allen Boyd. It makes
the organization look as if it means business.
Washington, D. C., with a Negro population of 100,000, offers a rich field for a progressive Negro newspaper. A live corporation, giving the people the real news in an impartial and attractive manner, could build up a circulation of 10,000 in six months. the people of the capital are a reading people, they have money, and the business men can be persuaded to advertise, if you can show them that it is worth while. Problem: Where is the man to lead the movement toward fiting this long-felt want?
The Star of Zion has a new press.
The Cleveland Journal may be revived by N. D. Drascher, W. T. Blue, John P. Green and others. Cleveland ought to be able to support two race peppers.
The "hell-box" is the proper receptacle for "handkerchief-head" ideas.
Consign them there at once.
Energetic newsdealers are needed in every town to push the papers that appeal to the citizenry of that particular locality, and who will send orders for special papers that any one may call for. The newsdealer is the natural handmalden of the journalistic profession and trouble should be taken to develop a good staff at the various strategic points throughout the country. Another job cut out for the National Negro Press Association!
On the first of July, 1912, 28,144 newspapers and periodicals were enjoying second-class mail privileges. Of these, about three hundred were published by Negroes. There is ample room for m.ore—and they can be good, too.
President R. W. Thompson is anxious that the efforts of the National Negro Press Association be supplemented by local press associations, which he urges should be established in all communities where there are as many as six persons actively engaged in any form of newspaper work. Through these organizations a local journalistic spirit is generated, better service is given the people, and the individuals are knitted more closely together in a social and fraternal way. When a newspaper man "strikes" a town he feels proud of his calling when a virile local press fraternity extends to him a hearty welcome. These associations will send delegates to the national body each year, and thus strengthen the arms of the men who are trying to carry on the work in the larger field. Now that the election is over, the president is hopeful that the leaders in the various cities and towns will get busy on the local association idea and keep the national officers in touch with what is being done.
The time is coming when the journalist will not be able to "just pick up" the profession and get by with it on his nerve and wits. The journalist of the future will have to go to school or take a specific course of

study, just as is true of other callings. Journalism is a science and an art, and it must be learned thoroughly, if success is to be attained.
Texarkana, Texas, is mentioned as one of the places that would like to entertain the proposed midwinter meeting of the executive committee of the N. N. P. A. An invitation has been extended through the effervescent W. E. King, editor of the Dallas Express.
Texas claims to have more colored newspapers than any other state in the Union. Ask W. E. King, Charles N. Love, W. A. Peete or some of the other "live wires" of that region.
Corresponding Secretary Boyd is "stirring the animals up" and is getting results from his voluminous correspondence. The newspaper man, who is onto his job, will answer letters and Mr. Boyd is hearing from them in a highly encouraging fashion. The Newspaper Directory is an important feature of the Association's campaign this year, and the editors should promptly send in the data called for by Mr. Boyd. The name, publishers, circulation, value of plant, number of persons regularly employed, total salaries paid, when founded, etc., are some of the questions asked. Such a compilation will show to the world the exact condition, the benefits and the needs, of Negra journalism in America. Each head of a newspaper can help make this a publication of value. Send in your data at once.
R. R. Wright, editor of the Christian Recorder, as the Pennsylvania member of the executive committee, will have official charge of the local arrangements for the meeting o f the Press Association in Philadelphia the third Tuesday in August, 1912. He is the right man in the right place, and will have the active co-operation of such forces as Chris J. Perry, Rev. G. L. P. Tallafero, A. P. Caldwell, J. E. McGirt, James Samuel Sterons, G. Grant Williams and others of the press, besides the ministry, professional and business men of the Quaker City. The convention will be an eye-opener."
"Clean journalism!" That's the slogan.
The metropolitan dailies will find it to their advantage to employ a competent colored newsgatherer to cover the interests that appeal particularly to the colored people. Important meetings, significant sermons, business innovations and educational events among our people seldom receive proper attention unless a broadgauged colored reporter is detailed to take care of them. It is regrettable that the crim s of the Negro are fully reported, for the dailies invariably place an energetic man on the police court and precinct station assignments. If the Negro is to get the benefit of a wholesome sentiment toward on the part of the whites, something must be done to set forth our creditable achievements as prominently as our crimes are being exploited to-day. A good colored reporter on the local white paper will
not injure the colored weekly. It will tend to stimulate newspaper reading all along the line, and our papers will share in the money that is spent for information.
The Fourth Estate, of New York City, says: "New Orleans is soon to become the home of a Negro daily paper. The Dally Spokesman is to be its title and the first issue is scheduled for appearance in November. The Spokesman is to be published, managed and printed entirely by Negroes, with its office and plant in a Negro office building. The capital to start it has also been furnished entirely, by the people of the colored race. The plans so far agreed upon are for an edition every afternoon and on Sunday morning. The weekday issue is to start with eight pages and the Sunday paper is to have twelve pages. The management is

"Do special editions pay?" is another of the important problems that are scheduled for discussion by the N. N. P. A.
Roscoe Conkling Simmons, editor of the Illinois Chronicle, Chicago, is scheduled for a lecture on "Fifty Years After" at the Calvary Baptist Church Louisville, Ky. Mr. Simmons is establishing himself as a journalistic fixture in the Windy City. His occasional lecture tours will be distinctive treats for the intellectual people of the Middle West.
The Georgia Baptist, published at Aurora, Ga., by the veteran Dr. W. W. White, rounded out its thirty-sec. end year a few days ago. The Georgia Baptist is one of the standard papers of the country and its sane utterances on race issues are always instructive and interesting.
At the urgent request of a number of its admirers in the state of Kentucky and elsewhere, Editor W. H. Steward, of the American Baptist, Louisville, Ky., has set apart the first Sunday in December as "American Baptist Day." on which the Baptists and other friends of the paper may join in a rally for new subscribers and to stimulate the interests of the denomination in the official organ that has upheld faith in such industrious and productive fashion for thirty-four years. Editor Steward should easily add 1,000 new names to his subscription list on "American Baptist Day" if the pastor he has helped will rally to his assistance as they should.
Scott C. Bone, editor of the Seattle Post-Intelligence, gives out a few timely thoughts on "The Journalist of To-day," that we reproduce here and commend to the prayerful attention of every Negro newspaper man in the country. Addressing the students of a prominent University, assorting first that academic training must have a place in the newspaper world, and urging that an all-round knowledge of the business be obtained by those who attempt to enter it. Mr. Bone said: "A man must have character to do newspaper work satisfactorily. Honesty, perseverance and dependability are absolute essential characteristics of the successful newspaper man. The newspaper, like the man, must have character, and that character is determined largely by the staff it employs. The higher the ideals of a newspaper, the higher its standards and the higher the quality of those who make it, the greater the influence of the paper. The news papers to-day that really deserve success are succeeding."
Editors of race papers, especially those in sympathy with the aims of the National Press Association, are urged to make liberal use of the paragraphs appearing from time to time in this department. In this way the craft will come to know itself better and the people will be brought into closer touch with the men who make newspapers and what they are laboring to accomplish.

COMMUNICATION
I know of no other race in the world that can make as many excuses as the Negro, when they favor the leadership or believe in the superiority of the white man. The statement of Mr. J. A. Jones sounds very well in words, but is out of place in real life. There are not a dozen white men in Nashville, who would agree with Mr. Jones' statement.
In this enlightened age they almost ostracise the white man for teaching in Negro institutions not from a prejudice standpoint, because southern white people contribute largely to the upbuilding of Negro institutions, but because they know he has a Negro's job. And if Mr. Jones' statement be true why are they asking us North, and South, to build our own schools and take our own places. They say we must help ourselves. They are getting tired of helping us.
Walden University stands to-day for the want of buildings because the white man is getting tired of the Negro's burdens. When it comes to building schools again those good old white men like Drs. Cravath, Merill, Graden and others have played out and it is time for the Negro to take his own stand in the march of civilization as others have taken it.
Mr. Jones says that Fisk University is owned by the 'white people people, and because of this fact a Negro president could not be placed at the head. I would like to ask Mr. Jones if not all over this country institutions owned by white people yet Negroes manage them. Phylander Smith College, Little Rock, Ark., is owned by the Freedman's Aid Society, yet they have a Negro president.
We hope the time will soon come when Negroes will stop being imitators and be real.

GALEDA CLASS
The Galeda Class of Mt. Olive Baptist Sunday-School at its last meeting held at the home of Mrs. Cornella Price, on Eleventh avenue, North, transacted much important business.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1912
The lesson for the following Sunday was studied. Their next meeting will be held with Mrs. Phil Douglass at 1306 Jackson street. The class votes unanimously to have as their guests at this meeting, Mrs. A. M. Plus, who has the proud distinction of being mother of Galedas and Miss Lorilia Bushnell, Editress of Hope. The class is now doing some very substantial work in the Sunday-school numerically and financially.
When the break came, however, this wall of rock was washed away and out into Eighth Avenue and adjoining property. Many of the houses swept by the torrent are half filled with mud and rocks.
On Eighth Avenue for a distance of several blocks the car tracks are covered with rocks from two to eight feet high, and it will be some time before the street cars resume their run to the end of the line.
MR. BLACKMAN OF MEHARRY MEDICAL COLLEGE
The friends of Mr. Edward M. Blackman in this city will be pleased, no doubt, to learn that he was awarded an Undergraduates' Permanent License in the recent State Medical Board Examination held in May last. Mr. Blackman spent his summer in Detroit, Michigan and only returned to this city three weeks ago. He wrote last week to find out the result of his examination when the License was sent to him by the Secretary with the explanation that his whereabouts were not known and hence the delay. Mr. Blackman is a member of the Senior Medical Class at Meharry. There seems to have been a typographical error in the publication of the list of successful candidates and the name Blakemore printed instead of Blackman.
ALABAMA BAPTIST WILL MEET AT
TUSKEGF
Selma, Ala., Nov. 1—It has just been announced by vote of the Alabama Baptist State Convention in session at Brewton, Ala., Nov. 1912, and by order of the Executive Board in Session at Aniston, Ala., August 2nd, 1912, the 4th Annual Session of the Alabama Baptist State Convention will meet at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., November 21st.
This will be the first time in the history of the denomination, the convention has accepted the invitation of the noted educator and race leader Dr. Booker T. Washington to hold an annual session at the famous Tuskegee Institute.
MEHARRY NOTES.
During the past week Dr. G. H. Bandy of this city spent most of his time at the Geo. W. Hubbard Hospital, where he was engaged in the capacity of anesthetist during the surgical clinic conducted at that institution by Dr. McMillan. Dr. Bandy is one of the best anesthetists in this city, and his services are always in demand when major surgical work is to be done at the above named institution.
THE MANIAC PLAYED AT MEHARRY AUDITORIUM
On Friday evening, 25th ult, Meharry Auditorium was the center of amusement for several hundred persons, consisting of students of the several schools and colleges of the city and scores of the colored citizens of Nashville, who wended their way thither to see how much delight they could be afforded by the 4-act drama entitled "The Maniac" written by Mr. W. P. Saunders, a member of the senior medical class of Meharry, and author of "The Adjuster", which made such a hit in the city last FaI. "Tis true that the title of a play often indicates the degree of its grandeur, but in that case there was no gauge by which to measure the gap between the repelling —— "Maniac" and the first rank drama rendered by those seven all-star performers.
Mrs. Alice Cheatham in the role of a broker's wife, could not be imitated, neither could an exclusive description nor adequate qualification be attempted of the very excellent manner in which she performed her part. It seemed as though an imaginary realm would as greatly favor her existence as our own beautiful world. She is a great personator of character and can adapt herself with unexcelled facility to a multitude of conditions.
Mr. Ferdinand Bradford, who played the part of the broker, acted in true manner lending favor to the performance, and rendering him the central figure of the play.
The charming Miss Lottle Anthony even if she had been a passive member of the party—so great were her attractions; and when she performs the part that fell to her, it seemed but an easy manifestation of her own pleasing and agreeable character.
It was hardly necessary for Mr. Wm. P. Saunders to perform, for the tributes paid the respective players are also his own merit, but skill he played the part of the maniac, and so profoundly impressed the audience that it will be long ere "The Maniac" will be erased from the minds of the people of Nashville.
Mr. I. B. Scott, Jr., must have been born on the stage, else he could not have been so perfect in the character he portrayed.
Mr. E. M. Wilkins would have graced a French court with his presence, so very punctilious was he in his manners. He exhibited a true picture of present day social and commercial relations.
Mr. Thomas Taylor as "Uncle Jeff" made a hit in his southern vassal style, and brought up the rear in this most effective of modern plays.
The proceeds of the occasion will go to the Hubbard Hospital fund. Immediately before the close of the play, Dr. Josie Wells, on behalf of the hospital association thanked the audience for their attendance.

HIGH EMBANKMENTS BROKE THE
TERRIFIC FORCE OF WATER
The high embankments of rocks just outside the reservoir walls broke the terrific force of the water, an perhaps prevented many from getting drowned like rats in a trap. These enormous piles of rock and dirt were thrown out when the builders of the reservoir were excavating for the big basin.
When the break came, however, this wall of rock was washed away and out into Eighth Avenue and adjoining property. Many of the houses swept by the torrent are half filled with mud and rocks.
On Eighth Avenue for a distance of several blocks the car trucks are covered with rocks from two to eight feet high, and it will be some time before the street cars resume their run to the end of the line.
CARLISLE NOTES

COLUMBIA NOTES
STEVENSON (ALA.) NOTES
