HELD AT RYMAN AUDITORIUM IN THE PRESENCE OF THOUSANDS OF SPECTATORS Class March into Beautiful Strain of Music---Principal Address Delivered by Dr. Geo. T. Trevery of Atlanta--- Dr. Penn could not be Present The thirty-seventh year's work of Mehary Medical College closed Tuesday night with the commencement at Ryman Auditorium. On this occasion ninety physicians, twenty-five dentists, twenty pharmacists and three trained nurses received their diplomas at the hands of Dr. J. A. Kumler, president of Walden University, who commissioned them to go out into the world to take up the work of alleviating the sufferings of humanity. This was the largest class in the history of the institution and was representative of nearly every state in the Union, the West Indies, Central and South America and Africa. The one hundred thirty-eight graduates presented a grand sight as they Y [Portrait of a man in academic regalia, likely a professor or scholar, with a long white beard and a black cap.

Individual members who are well known in this city received applause from their friends as they approached the stage. On several occasions the great throng who had assembled to witness the closing exercises of the institution broke forth in tumultuous applause, expressing their appreciation of the efforts that had been put forth by these young men and women to prepare themselves for greater services in life. hint of the work done since it was the city, being hims the University of class of 1876 and class of 1879. Touch with the this city. During it was brought first members of harry was Dr. W. a close friend of who labored upon the establishment and the training who were its first The Processional March was played by Prof. I. J. Berry. After the graduating class and members of the faculty were seated on the platform, the audience sang "Stand Up for Jesus." Invocation was said by Bishop C. H. Phillips. The Young Men's Glee Club sang "Day Break" (Fanning). Dr. Hubbard, Dean of Meharry, introduced Dr. Geo. H. Trever, Professor of Gammon Theological Seminary, of Atlanta, Ga., who delivered the principal address to the class. He was filling the engagement of Dr. I. Garland Penn, who was unavoidably detained. It must be said to Dr. Trever's credit that he was laboring under a great disadvantage as he had not sufficient time to make any preparation, and having come direct from instructing the theological students his utterances proved that he was completely absorbed in his regular work, for try as he would he could not dissuade himself from emphasizing the gospel ministry, despite the fact that he was addressing a medical class about to graduate. At the conclusion of the principal speaker's remarks, Dean Hubbard introduced introduced Bishop J. H. Lambtho, who in a few well chosen words told of his experiences in Africa. The bishop's remarks received the closest attention of the large assemblage. He was a class mate of Dean Hubbard's when he was a student at Vanderbilt University Medical College. The --- VOL.

Dr. Hubbard, in presenting the class to President Kumler, said that the graduates from Mehairy Medical Colleges constitute about one-half of the Negroes practicing medicine in the Southern States. He said in most cases the graduates of Mehairy have good reputations in the communities where they live. They have aided the health officers in improving the sanitary conditions of the people where ever they reside. "Especially is this true," said he, "in the stamping out of tuberculosis." Dr. Hubbard mentioned several things along this line that showed that the doctors who are going out from Mehairy from yea rto year are carrying with them the influence under which they have been during their stay in that institution. In talking with a Globe representative recently, Dr. Hubbard gave a 44 hint of the work that Meharry has done since it was established in this city, being himself a graduate from the University of Nashville of the class of 1876 and of Vanderbilt of the class of 1879. He has also kept in touch with the white physicians of this city. During the conversation it was brought out that one of the first members of the faculty of Meharry was Dr. W. J. Sneed, who was a close friend of Dr. Hubbard's and who labored unceasingly with him in the establishment of the institution and the training of the young Negroes who were its first students. Dr. Sneed was a southern born man, but he was interested in the welfare of the Negro along medical lines, and believed that it was possible for black men to learn the science of medicine. Another great friend of Meharry was the late Dr. R. O. Tucker, one of Nashville's leading white physicians. He spent many years in the work with Dr. Hubbard at Meharry. The late Dr. Morgan was another stalwart friend of the institution, serving many years as the president of the Board of Trustees. Dr. J. Witerspoon, president of the National Medical Association, a man born in the south and who is delighted to let the world know that he is a son of the sunny clime, is one of Dr. Hubbard's right-hand bowers at the present time. He is untiring in his efforts to secure for Meharry Medical College the very fullest recognition that can be secured when the case of Negro medical colleges comes up before the American Medical Association. Dr. Witerspoon is the untiring champion of Meharry. Dr. Hubbard never forgets to impress the fact that the standing of Meharry is due largely to the support of Dr. Witerspoon. Meharry ranks A in American colored colleges, and holds membership in the Association of American Medical Colleges, the National Asso- (Continued on page 8.) NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY APRIL 25, 1913.

A battle for higher education of Negro youth. Colored people called to help. Fisk University, the most noted Negro institution for higher education is facing a serious crisis in its attempt to raise an endowment fund. The institution was offered $80,000 more than two years ago by the General Education Board, on condition that it raise $240,000 in addition, for liquidation of accumulated indebtedness of about $50,000, for repairing and refitting buildings, for the installation of a heating and lighting plant, and for endowment. An amount of $50,000 was to be raised, two-thirds of which was to go for endowment. The institution has run all these years almost entirely through the support from year to year, of white friends in the North. About two hundred of these white friends have contributed toward the present endowment effort, but the total amount given leaves $104,900 yet to be raised. The time limit of the initial offer of the General Education Board expires June 1st and the University authorities have no assurance that this time will be extended. The alumni are carrying on a loyal rally to raise $25,000 as their share in the fund, but there will still remain nearly $100,000 which must be secured from other friends. The white friends of the Negro have contributed generously to this fund and now are asking what the Colored people propose to do. The authorities of the University are making a nation-wide appeal to the Colored people to rally to the rescue of this institution which for forty-seven years has offered all that is highest and best in education and culture to the Negroes of the land. They want 100,000 colored people to send them at least $1 between now and June 1st. Checks and money orders should be made payable to Fisk University and may be sent to the editorial office of this paper or directly to Fisk University at Nashville, Teen. All contributions sent to the office of this paper will be acknowledged in its columns. Shall we rally to the call of an institution which from its foundation has aimed to set the feet of young Negroes in the path to all the learning and cultures which the best institutions of the land afford? STATE NORMAL FIRST ANNUAL OUTING AT GREENWOOD PARK. The Faculty and students of State Normal have labored during this scholastic year and as they are about to close their first year's work in their new State Normal, will celebrate their success with their first annual outing, at Greenwood Park, May Isl. The girls and boys are planning a jolly time on that day, and every effort will be put forth to make the day one of livelihood and merriment. MISS ANNA ALLEN DIES. Miss Anna Allen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Allen of Scovel street died suddenly Sunday morning about 6 o'clock. Miss Allen had been sick for some time but was thought to be entirely out of danger. She was able to be out and attend the banquet of Mehary Medical College, Friday night, April 17. She was aparently on the road to recovery and her relatives had hoped that she would soon be strong and fully at herself. On Sunday she was in a cheerful mood all day, and made no complaint of her illness. Without any warning, she took with a violent coughing spell, which resulted in a hemorrhage from which she died before medical aid could reach her. She was a very popular young lady and was highly esteemed by all who knew her. The Body was taken to Carthage. Tenn., where the funeral was held in the local church. Tuesday afternoon. KNOWLES SCHOOL ALLIANCE A meeting of the Knowles School Alliance will be Friday night in the Knowles School Building. The Alliance will take up matters looking to the betterment of condition in this school. At the last meeting of the Alliance the water condition was brought up, and a committee was appointed to wait upon the school authorities and ask them to allow the citizens to run a water pipe in the school yard. The only water the children have there now is taken from an old cistern and has been analized by the city bacteriaoligist and pronounced impure, and the parents of the children are alarmed over the fact, and are willing to take up subscriptions to protect their children against ravenous diseases. COMMENCEMENT AT UNIVERSITY OF WEST TENNESSEE. Memphis, Tenn., April 23.—The commencement exercises of the University of Tennessee will be held next Tuesday evening at the University chapel.

HOPKINSILLE DAILY NEWS Phil H. Brown. it is learned, has resumed the publication of the Hopkinsville Daily News, in Hopkinsville, Ky. Mr. Brown was the first Negro to start a daily paper in Kentucky. He gave up this splendid publication, a few years ago owing to other pressing business. Mr. Brown is a very popular in state and national politics having taken a very prominent part in the late state election of Kentucky and was prominently connected with the National Republican headquarters in Chicago. After winding up his business there he has returned to Hopkinsville to run his daily. MEHARRY BACCE LAUREATE SERMON MEHARRY BACCE LAUREATE SERMON PREACHED BY BISHOP C. H. PHIL- LIPS. M. D., D. D. On Sunday, April 20, large crowds winded their way to the Meharry Auditorium to witness the Baccalaureate exercises of Meharry Medical College. The sermon was preached by Eibishop C. H. Phillips of this city. He said that for the first time during his ministerial career he would use a manuscript. After speaking of the days when he was a student in Meharry, he took for his subject. "What is Man?" The wonderful discourse was helpful and very interesting from start to finish, and was delivered with much eloquence. Bishop Phillips dealt with man as being the greatest thing in God's creation, and also of the many accomplishments and inventions since man's existence. In the course of his remarks he pictured a cobbler in his shop on a rainy day, expecting a visit from the Heavenly Father; during the day an old man came by with his clothes all ragged and worn, then an old woman, with a heavy load on her back came by, very tired and hungry; and last a little child who had lost its way came by. The cobbler did not turn them away from his door with out a blessing; to the old man, he gave a pair of shoes; to the old woman, his only loaf and carried the little child to its mother. At the close of the day the cobbler felt somewhat disappointed because the Lord had not visited him, but while he was musing over his disappointment a voice was heard to say. Three times to-day I was at your door. Three times my shadow was on your floor; I was the man, you gave shoes for feet. I was the woman you gave to eat. I was the child on the homeless street. Bishop Phillips instilled many helpful thoughts into the minds of the young men. CAMP FIRE The old soldiers held a camp fire at Lea Avenue Christian Church, Wednesday night. A large number of old veterans were on hand to participate in the festivities of the evening, Camp stories and reminiscences of war times were indulged in and stories of victories and defeats on the battlefield were told; many of them were in the great battles of Nashville and surrounding country during the Civil War. The menu consisted of hard tacks, sow belly, bread, beans and coffee. It was served in army style. The veterans acted as guides to the visitors. It was inspiring to see them ambling up to the pot to get a cup of beans and coffee bread and bacon. They devoured the same as only soldiers can. There are over one hundred members of Lincoln Post and more than fifty of the Women's Relief Post. No 4, both being attached to the Guard of the Grand Army of the Republic. TENNESSEE'S LEAD- ING NEGRO JOURNAL No. 17. OLLEGES No.17. WILL OF PEOPLE TO BE CONSIDERED LIBRARY COMMISSIONERS DESIROUS OF PLEASING THE MASSES. Show No Indications or Impatience— The Bottom Site May Not Be Accepted—New Developments In The Case—Several Questionable Houses in the Commun- In the matter of the location of the Negro Library daily developments are encouraging the people in the belief that their wish will be given due consideration by the Board of Commissioners. In the last meeting of the Commission, no final action was taken in the matter of locating the colored branch of the Library. The white branch was located in North Nashville, but when the protest of the colored people was presented to the board they desired to wait until further investigation could be made. It is learned that the commissioners are desirous of the placing the library where it will be acceptable to the majority of the colored people and where it will be patronized by them. They desire to create that popularity that will induce people to contribute to its maintenance from year to year. It is realized that if the library becomes uppopular before it is erected it will practically be of no use. For this reason and many others the matter will be given consideration. New developments make the case darker. It is learned that on 12th avenue between Church and Cedar streets there are several houses run in a questionable way. These houses are located in close proximity to the site that is proposed for the library. There are some very highly respected people living on 12th avenue between Cedar and Church streets, but is known that they are making every effort to get out of that community. Most of them are old residents of that vicinity. Some have lived there either as housekeepers themselves or with their parents for more than forty years. They are property owners, and cannot afford to break up and leave without making some sacrifices. It is known, however, that they are endeavoring to make a change, and for the specific reason that the neighborhood has become so corrupt. One by one those people who thought that they were about to loose the library are being made to know that this is out of the question. It has never entered the minds of the Commissioners to think of such a thing. The one member who met the Board of Trade recently and threw out the broad hint that the commissioners were tired of being bothered with Negroes is believed to have been speaking for himself, and it was he who told a very prominent Negro that the Negroes did not need a library that they ought to go to work. When he he appeared at the Negro Board of Trade, he said several of the commissioners did not favor a library for the Negroes, but that he was very anxious that they have one, but told another gentleman that the Negroes did not need a library and that they ought to go to work; so it seems that the gentleman makes one statement to tee Board of Trade and another to an individual. The Library Commission of Nashville is composed of high class men, and they are all anxious that the Negro citizens of this city be treated as citizens; and that they be encouraged to become better citizens. They realize the great value of a library and since Mr. Carnegie has given to Nashville $50,000 on condition that $25,000 go for a Negro library. This commission has shown that they are very anxious to build this library and that it should have the proper location. ODD FELLOWS SERMON The Odd Fellows' sermon will be held at Greenwood Park Sunday, May 11th. This will be the union sermon of all the Odd Fellows of the city. It will be preached by Rev. J. W. Richmond. DAVIDSON COUNTY TEACHERS SECOND ANNUAL PIGNIC. The Davidson County Teachers will give their second annual picnic, May 2nd. These teachers have had a very successful school year and are about to close with excellent reports. The way in which the teachers have labored with the children have been untiring and a nice little outing will be very much enjoyed.

As far as can be estimated, there are now practicinng medicine in the Southern and Southwestern States, only about fifteen hundred regularly educated colored physicians to administer to the wants of about eight millions of their own race, or one physician to about 5,500 of the colored people. This indicates that there is only about one-tenth as many colored doctors as there are physicians in this country for the entire population. With the exception of some of the higher institutions of learning, supported by benevolent societies in the North, colored children and youth are taught entirely by teachers of their own race. The pulpits of Negro churches are served entirely by preachers of their own color. As soon as it is practicable it seems advisable that the same condi- Professione Professional Success. In the early years of this work doubts were frequently expressed regarding the ability and fitness of colored physicians for the successful practice of this most responsible calling. The experience of the last thirty-two years show that these fears were unfounded. Their success in their professional work has been greater than their most sanguine friends had even hoped.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1913 elected at the General Conference in Minneapolis. He has already demonstrated in the eight months he has been in office that he is trained in executive and administrative work and as an organizer of forces he has ciety is now facing the greatest opportunity in its history. Likewise the Methodist Episcopal Church is undergoing radical changes in organization and education upon the benevolent mission of the church in world evangelization. Two laymen of superior ability as organizers are in the forefront of this work. One is a white man, in the person of Dr. S. Earl Taylor, one of the corresponding secretaries of the Foreign Mission Board at New York, and the other is a man of the Negro race. Dr. I. Garland Penn, one of the corresponding secretaries of the Freed men's Aid Society. Each has been detailed by his Board to work under the Commission on Finance created at the last General Conference, as the clearing house of the benevolent boards of Methodism in the presentation, organization, and education of Methodists upon the joint benevolent appeal of that great church. Besides, Dr. Penn is the organizing genius of the Freedmen's Aid Society in the raising of the $100,000 in the twenty colored conferences of the church to secure the promised $400,000 from all Methodism, covering the $500,000 Jubilee Fund, authorized by the last General Conference for the education of the Negro. This fund is being arised independent of the regular Freedmen's Aid collections and is to commemorate the Semi-Centennial Jubilee of the freedom of the Negro. The Freedmen's Aid Society is facing the greatest prosperity in its history. Dr. Penn has a notable career back of him. In twenty-eight years of public service he has held but four positions, having been so successful in each as always to have resigned to take the other that was a promotion. For ten years he was a Principal in city schools at Lynchburg, Va., resigning to go to the Cotton States and International Exposition, at Atlanta, Ga., in 1895, as National Commissioner. At the close of the Exposition he was awarded a gold medal for excellence of the exhibit. Shortly afterward he was elected one of the general secretaries of the Epworth League and held office for sixteen years until promoted to his present position. DR. I. GARLAND PENN, Corresponding Secretary Freedmen's Aid Society, M. E. Church. He is an author, organizer, and platform man. As an organizer, Dr. Penn has to his credit the National Medical Association, along with other national assemblies. Aside, therefore, from his official position as corresponding secretary of the Freedmen's Aid Society, it is particularly fitting as the organizer of the medical men, to be interested in the Meharry commencement, the semi-centennial year of the Freedom of the race. Dr. Penn believes every doctor should be a progressive. In speaking to a Globe representative he said: "We are living in a new and exceptional age. The age is new, because of the discovery almost daily of new truth on the one hand, and the urgent and pressing demands on the mankind. But r the spectacle of a million if a son of tuberculosis. "In our thought ing with the phys all that applies our race. The made the greatest fessional man in into the commun examination. H property owner with the domin and business way portunity. He good. "There is not reer than I am p ing called together Exposition, in 18 other for the discovery of truth, yet hidden and unrevealed which the needs of mankind demand. Some one has said everything is running at high pressure. It would seem too much so, for high pressure may not, and many times does not, conduce to the finding of that truth in God's domain that helps man. "It is the steady going, thoughtful, persistent specialist and plodder that is blessing mankind as he gets from what seemed to be oblivion, light and illumines our pathway. He gets the whole truth and makes the age new and exceptional, while the high pressure man gets but half truth and leaves us in mystery and doubt. High pressure is on the side of demand for truth, and in this sense only is conducive to the finding of the truth. The world in all of its ramifications and in all its problems needs only the truth to bring it right. "It is evermore the question of the inspired one. "O, that I knew where I might find Him." "As we find Him, we find his truth; as we find His truth we bless mankind and as we bless mankind we remove burdens, sorrows, difficulties, disease and drought, and install in their place joy, happiness, love, peace health and life in individuals, families, races and nations. Thus we make the age new exceptional because truth is at work. Of the so-called rearend professions seeking to bless mankind and make the age new and exceptional but one is beyond that of the physician and that one is the minister. On sober thought as to the opportunity of the physician, one is tempted to place him in importance equal to the minister. "But with us all it is the use of the opportunity that makes teh importance of our profession rather than the profession itself. "In that sense I dare say there are many physicians a thousand-fold more valuable to humanity than a similar number of ministers and vice versa. "Humanity is interested in the physician to-day as never before. The struggle is on between the material and the spiritual. Men are after dollars without regard to the health of themselves or their fellows. The insistence that we be spiritual which is to be God-fearing, simple and temperate ourselves, and thus seek the same for others, and to do unto others as we would others do unto us, has not the weight it should have, so that we may have a safe check upon ourselves in the mad rush for things material. "For material gain we segregate others, shutting out sunshine and air, drainage and natural sanitation, yea, the rights of others to liberty, health and happiness never enters into our thought when the question of income pre-occupies, because the spiritual is lacking to make us see we are our brother's keeper. We disobey and we pay for it in disease of body and mind, hence the physician becomes a man sent of God, if he knows God's truth in the world that is an offset to man's error once committed. "In proportion as the physician knows the truth, he is a Progressive. In the last heated camp some one asked. "What is a Progressive?" and the answer was "a progressive is one who says he is." The physician does not have to say he is, for his discoveries make him so. "In no field of intellectual endeavor has more progress been made than in in medical research. "Some one has said, in a prominent magazine of the country, That with the present legislation in behalf of public health, the 'discovery of serum after serum for the the cure of diseases hitherto regarded fatal, the education of the individual on preventative rather than cures, it will be a disgrace to be sick and we shall all die of old age. In 'discussing the physician as a Progressive, due regard should be had for the men of wealth who are making opposite the great strides in medical research. "Along, also, with the progressiveness of the physician goes the evi- mankind. But recently we have had the spectacle of a man willing to pay a million if a son-in-lay could be cured of tuberculosis. "In our thought we have been dealing with the physician in general and all that applies to any physician of our race. The Negro physician has made the greatest advance of any professional man in the race. He comes into the community tested by rigid examination. He has become a property owner fast. His contract with the dominant race in an ethical and business way has given him opportunity. He has and is making good. "There is nothing in my life's career than I am prouder of, than having called together at the Atlanta Exposition, in 1895; the Negro Phy- [Name] BISHOP WALDEN, for Whom Walden University is Named. dence that people are willing to pay the price for that which really blesses saints and organized what is 'now known as the National Negro Medical Association. "It is the most learned body of Negro professional men that meets in an organized way in America. "It is told of a distinguished Bishop that he took his son, to now an eminent man of letters, to Yale or Harvard and entered him when but a lad for his course of training. "After making all arrangements and seeing to the boy's comfort, when he was about to bid him good-bye, the father said: 'son remember whose boy you are." "Later in life, when the father was relieved of duty and placed upon the retired and honored list of Bishops in his church, and was returning home to rest, the son, now a distinguished man himself, wired his father these words—Come home, father, remember whose father you are." "The young men of Meharry should remember whose graduates they are, I feel sure Meharry and the Freedmen's Aid Society want always to be proud of you, for one of the first questions I ask as I come into contact with physicians in my travels—who are progressives if they half from Meharry. Meharry will never go out of business as long as Methodism lives, but that grand and old man, Dean Hubbard, is approaching his fifteenth year of service and he wants to see Meharry upon the firmest foundation possible before he retires. Meharrv Annual Banquet Another demonstration of the genuine hospitality and the big-heartedness of Dr. and Mrs. George W. Hubbard was seen on Thursday night when at the Meharry Auditorium the thirtieth annual banquet was tendered to the 1913 graduating class of the Meharry Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Colleges. One hundred thirty-eight graduates and three hundred twenty citizens responded to the invitation of Dr. and Mrs. Hubbard to dine with them. No more beautiful night has presented itself this year. Fair Luna was at her best, apparently all in harmony with the occasion. Promptly at 7:30 o'clock the guests began to arrive from every section of the city, and by 8:30 o'clock the spacious auditorium was a veritable garden of flowers, enlivened by beautifully gowned women and men in the conventional attire. As soon as the guests began to arrive they were met by Dr. Joselle Wells, who in turn introduced them to Dr Kumler, president of Walden University, Dr. George W. Hubbard, Dean of Meharry, and his wife. The reception hour continued from 7:30 o'clock until past 9 o'clock, prolonged on ac The Jazz Band count of the tardiness in the arrival of the 1913 class picture, which is usually exhibited at these annual occasions. It was 9:15 o'clock when the picture was borne into the auditorium amid a roar of applause from the visitors and friends of the graduates. They could scarcely wait until it was placed on the platform that they surged around it, pointing out their acquaintances and friends in the class. After a half hour had elapsed in viewing the picture it was announced that while the march was being played it would be led by Dr. and Mrs. Hubbard, who would be followed by the special guests who would sit at their table, the members of the faculty, the class and the guests. In the banquet hall which was brilliantly lighted and beautifully decorated for the occasion, the scene was inspiring. Unassuming and conscious of the fact that a new epoch was dawning in McHarry, Dean Hubbard arose and spoke modestly, saying that "if this present class was no mistake and unless they themselves were deceived, it was the most brilliant, thorough and competent, and certainly the largest in the history of the school." At this announcement another lusky applause was given. After a few preliminary remarks by Dean Hubbard, he concluded by calling upon the class speaker of the evening, Henry A. Walker, A. B., of Tennessee, who gave to the magnificent audience perhaps the most beautiful painted and well rendered banquet speech that has been heard in this banquet hall. Following him Dean Hubbard called upon the oldest mmeer of the faculty in point of service now living, Dr. H. T. Noel, who spoke on behalf of the present class. For the Pharmaceutical Department Dr. Wm. Sevler spoke, while Dr. J. Alonzo Napier responded on behalf of the Dental Department. For the Nurse Training Miss Minnie D. Woodard spoke. As a member of the Board of Examination of Students, Dr. John Ira Watson spoke. Following these Miss Mary Spence spoke on behalf of First University, while Mrs. Martha Wells Brown represented the State Normal and Dr. A. M. Townsend responded for Roger Williams University. Mr. A. N. Johnson responded on behalf of the citizens of Nashville. At the close of these addresses, Dean Hubbard, who assumed the duties of master of ceremonies in addition to his being host of the occasion, pointed out some beautiful facts. He referred to this being the thirty-seventh anniversary of Meharry Medical College and that more than twenty-five hundred students had gone out from the university, and that since the opening of the hospital it had cared for three hundred fifty patients with a remarkable record of only nine deaths. During the speech-making a totohsome two-course menu was served.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1913. Meharry Commencement. Meharry Commission Tuesday night brought to a close the thirty-seventh commencement of Meharry Medical Colleges. One hundred thirty-eight men and women received diplomas from the four departments. It was a magnificent scene, and means more to the race than can be calculated in figures. These graduates go out competent to render first-class service in the practice of medicine. We say they go thoroughly equipped because Meharry has stood the tests of every organization that has turned the search light on hey they all have given to it the highest grade that is given to any institution in the country that is established for the education of Negroes in the science of medicine. The whole of Nashville is proud of Meharry, and from its very beginning white physicians of this city have devoted much of their time in the training of those young people who have matriculated there. Despite the fact that the majority of the faculty are Negroes, some of the leading white physicians in the south are unstinted in their labors to help train the young Negro students of Meharry in the science of medicine. Too much praise cannot be bestowed upon Dean G. W. Hubbard for the untiring efforts he has put forth to keep Meharry in the front ranks. He is a great and good man, and has more confidence in the Negro race than most of the leaders of the race. In fact, he is in a better position to know of its possibilities than most men, and the graduates of Meharry go out from the institution fully cognizant of that fact. Dean Hubbard is advancing in years and he is to be congratulated on having completed the new hospital of Meharry, and his many friends wish for him many years more that he may enjoy what he has labored to hard to accomplish. That this class will live up to the reputation of the institution is the hope of the people of Nashville, who have shown so many courtesies to them during their stay here, and the people in the communities where they may chance to cast their lot. The Lowlanders There is a class of men in this city who might be appropriately classed as the "Low Landers," so far as concerns the welfare of the people in general; for with as many high points as there are in Nashville some of our men persist in contending that the Carnegie Library be situated at the corner of Twelfth avenue and Hynes street. They base their contention on the assumption that unless the Negroes of Nashville accept that site they will not get any library at all. As to that it sometimes happens to be more honorable not to accept a thing than to accept it, and several of our leaders who have courage and self-respect and who have regard for their fellowmen, have been heard to say without mincing words that if the library is to be placed in a disreputable locality and one that is most likely in a few years to be wrapped in the midst of railroad tracks, they would rather not have any library at all. The contention of these "Low Landers" is fetched and there is no apparent desire on the part of the library commission to place this colored branch where it will be of no service to the people for whom it is to be erected. As proof that they want to do the right thing it is only necessary to recall that they asked for a conference with the Negroes. It happened, however, as it has in many cases, that as soon as it became known that the council of Negroes was sought, up bobs this ring of "Low Landers," and when it was said to them by one commissioner that this site was the only one that could be had, and when it appeared to them that it would be purchased, they jumped at the opportunity that seemed to be in their grasp to say that "we" located the library. All thought of conditions went out of their minds entirely and the whole vision was obscured by one big "we." It is deplorable, indeed, that the men who are in position to be of real service to the race haven't the courage to object to anything that is offered whether it be objectionable or not. The library question is not settled yet by the commissioners. In fact the best people of Nashville, and they are largely in the majority, desire that this library be so sifuated as to be not only a credit to Nashville but satisfactory to and a pride of the Negro citizens. They are not impatient in this matter, and we do not believe the men who are contending that they are, have ever thought that there was any sign of impatience exhibited on the part of the commissioners. The greatest danger to be contended with is the desire on the part of a few to say "I did it." We say "T" becausea it is unsafe to say we, for the little band will break asunder if one shoves a bit ahead of the other. If these "T" gods can be put out of the way this whole matter can be adjusted in a way that will be best for all concerned. Prof. A. E. Ware, president of Atlanta University, has got his foot deep in the mire in the effort to prove that the Negroes among whom he has worked and lived for years are worthless. He has caused the Atlanta Independent to tell the world what he amounts to. If what the Independent says is true (and we have always found that their charges are more fact than fiction), President Ware is due to pack his grip and hike away to other parts, for no man is capable to teach the youth of a race who, after years of association with that race, has not been able to see anything good in it. Tennessee is to spend $7,000,000 a year for education, according to a bill passed in the legislature. Negroes throughout the state, who have some knowledge of the educational needs of the race, should put themselves in position to give the authorities some idea of those needs. The United States is in a row again with Japan, in regard to the proposed legislation of the California lawmakers. Instead of universal peace we are much nearer a universal war. Truly, this must be the darkest hour before the dawn. Miss Pauline Eutler of 40th avenue, who has been critically ill is improving nicely. Mr. Thos. Moore of 924 40th avenue, who has been very ill for the last two weeks is able to be out again. OUT OF TOWN NOTES EDENWOLD NOTES. Rev. J. O. Johnson held his service at Dry Creek last Sunday.

We, the women of the Co-Operative Uplift Club, recently organized in the City of Nashville for the purpose of beginning a line of work not now being done by any individual or set of individuals, feel deep down within the recesses of our hearts, that now is the psychological moment to combat certain existing evils which with a little combined effort, might be more easily corrected or set to rights than we can now foresee. Every woman who is a member of this club is a very busy woman. Women whose time is well taken up; for each one, almost to a person is busily engaged in helping her husband earn their daily bread. And yet each one feels it a burning necessity to sacrifice some of that time, if it be possible, in so doing, to become mutually helpful to the immediate needs and interests of this community. Day by day we see our little boys (many of whom are to become our future citizens) running wild in the streets. Most of their parent's work calls them away from home, which renders it practically impossible for them to give these boys the proper care and attention they should receive in their training for future citizenship. It is possible that a little tact employed in organizing them into different kinds of industrial clubs may go far into the correction of this evil. Day by day and night by night, we see our young girls just budding into womanhood and many of our women as well. idly walking the streets and frequenting houses of questionable repute and many other places of vice and immortality, with not one hand raised to stay them or one voice lifted to warn them of the impending dangers. We feel that some measures should be taken in this regard; even to the point of imploring preventive legislation, which will compel them to do right; for, whereas we shall encounter their present hatred, and condemnation, in years to come they will rise up and bless their former benefactors for thinking and acting for them when they were not capable of doing it for themselves. Again, where there are many of us who are adepts in the Domestic Arts and Sciences, the vast majority of our people, who have to earn their daily bread by performing some feature of these household arts, have not had the advantages of learning how to do them well enough to guarantee a respectable livelihood, but are simply eking out a miserable existence, not satisfying to themselves and certainly not satisfying to those by whom they are employed. This is not a sin however, but just a deplorable condition of affairs existing which, we feel, can be remedied by faithful and persistent co-operation of all parties concerned. For we feel quite sure that, if conditions are brought about to raise the standard of this class of service in the way of organized institution to instruct and reliable, trustworthy, efficient, help demonstrate along these lines, which will enable the employers to secure special to the Globe. Memphis, Tenn., April, 1913—Sunday, April 20th, is to be one of the biggest days among the Baptist folk of this city that the people of Memphis have prepared to observe for many moons. Two monster services are being prepared: two mammoth programs arranged; and the indications are that there will be two big events pulled off. One will be at the Tabernacle Baptist Church, where the Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, D. D., Secretary of the Educational Board of the National Baptist Convention, is to be installed as pastor, he having recently accepted the call, and moved the headquarters of the Educational Board to this city. All of the pastors irrespective of denomination, have been invited to participate in this in stallation service. the other event will be a mammoth Sunday-school demonstration at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, of which the Rev. T. J. Searcy, D. D., is pastor, when the Sunday-schools of Memphis, assisted by the City Conquest, will entertain the Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress, the Rev. Henry A. whose coming has been herald-oughout Shelby County. Sixty-todd Sunday-schools in this city, with their superintendents and corps of teachers, and enrollment, are planning to give the Congress Secretary a real touch of what the Sunday-School Forward Movement stands for in Memphis. This is regarded as being the climax to the Bluff City's preparation for the Sunday-School Congress this year. Leading in this movement is Mr. L. C. Moore, the most popular layman in the whole state. Co-operating with him will be the entire Sunday-school forces. Mr. Moore gave out this week that final arrangements for the Secretary's coming had been completed and that there was nothing left now but to abide the time. **murraymaui** jo mjpma s qi usouqni this week.

A cordial invitation is extended to all who desire to worship. About twenty of our people went to Sharon Sunday, to be present at the burial of Mrs. Alice Busby, who was a faithful and devoted member of the A. M. E. church here. The funeral was preach at the Baptist church by their pastor, Rev. Mosley, of Paris. Though the day was very inclement, yet our people were excellently treated and well taken care of while in Sharon. This is indeed a characteristic of that town, anyway, they are known for their hospitality. Messrs.

The Large Figures Show the Number in Each State. Notwithstanding many advances have been made in various means for the study of the prophylaxis, cause, manifestations and eradications of disease, medical science finds itself now almost completely baffled by one of the most mysterious diseases to which humanity is known to be heir. It is a new and grave problem with which the profession in this country is now grappling, and particularly in the South, where it is assuming alarming proportions. The indefinite and pervasive character of its etiology, the vague manifestations of its pathology, its peculiar morbid phenomena, and its progressive character in spite of all efforts at treatment or cure, make it indeed, as I have styled it, the medical mystery of the day. This strange disease is Pellagra. The attention of the people in general has not been brought to this disease, and consequently outside of the profession it causes little or no fear or dread. People have great fear and 00 91 dread for consumption, typhoid fever, yellow fever, small-pox and the like, for the reason that they have learned by various means the contagiousness and awful ravages, with almost death-like certainty, of these diseases. But concerning Pellagra they have not been taught, for indeed, though it has existed for centuries, it is just now that the medical profession in this country is beginning to recognize the condition and becoming interested in it. I am led therefore to write this article in a plain way, as free as possible from technical medical terms, in order that the people in general may understand and form some idea of the manifestations of this disease. There is no doubt in my mind but that not only the profession but the public as well is confronted by a problem more serious in its ravages than tuberculosis, typhoid fever or any of the diarrheal diseases of children. Having now served for three years as chairman of the "Commisson on Pellagra," appointed by the National Medical Association for the investigation of the existence of Pellagra among Negroes, I have devoted much time to the study of the disease. In pursuance of this investigation I am now planning to make a tour through the southern and southeastern states before the next meeting of the National Medical Association which convenes here in August. There is no person that comes under my observation afflicted with any disease, that arouses my sympathy and pity more than a victim of Pellagra. To me it is the most loathsome disease that exists in this country. And when I note that, ever since its discovery by Casal, of Spain, in 1735, measures for its prevention and restriction have been most strictly carried out in where it is most pre- 1 3 51 MISS CUR KANSAS PRESIDENT valent today, and when I note further that the path of investigation as to its cause and cure has been worn bare by the ablest of Italian and French students, and yet it is singularly barren in results of reliable facts, my sympathy is increased and the mystery deepens. There are two things which can be said without doubt about pellagra: First, that it actually exists among us—a peculiarly deadly disease; and second, that it has existed in our midst for a long time unrecognized. It may yet be developed, who knows, since indeed the record shows that even pellagra may exist without the skin eruption as an essential sign, that the degenerating dementias so common among us, and the chronic melancholia so troublesome to us, are but the results of the subtle ravages of this hitherto unrecognized guest in our midst. Who knows but that retrospectively it may yet be recognized and frankly admitted as a result of more intellect Dental Library. gence and investigation of the problem before us, that under diagnosis of chronic diarrhoea, intestinal indigestion, melanosis, eczema and the like, many cases have been seen, slightly regarded and dismissed, and slowly but surely our patient has passed beyond our reach and we none the wiser? In the absence of that definite and positive knowledge which comes from laboratory investigations, statistics on Pellagra are so inaccurate and of such character as to afford very tittle basis for reaching any conclusions. Very few statistics have been kept at all except for the last two or three years. In some cities, some counties and some states no statistics are as yet being kept. From reports in the Census Bureau's death registration area, Pellagra caused two deaths in 1900, two in 1903, one in 1904, twenty-three in 1908, one hundred sixteen in 1909, three hundred sixty-eight in 1910, and more than doubled for 1911. This increase in the number of deaths reported cannot be regarded as representing an actual increase in the annual mortality, from the fact that the disease dwelt among us for years unrecognized and unsuspected. The deaths reported not have been numerous enough or of a sufficient representative character to indicate the true age and sex incident of the diseases as it occurs in this country, of the 368 deaths mentioned, 263 or 71.5 per cent, were females. In Italy where this disease has been more or less prevalent for many years, the number of deaths in 1908, the latest year for which figures are available, was 1,334, of which 575 or 43.1 per cent were females. At the earlier age periods an excess of deaths of females over deaths of males was shown for Italy, while in the periods beginning ILLINOIS INDIANA KENTUCKY 54 NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1913 with that from 50 to 54 years the mortality was heavier among the males. From January to June, 1912, there were 160 cases in Tennessee, with 29 deaths. In Nashville in 1912, twelve cases were reported with six deaths. Pellagra is a disease that affects all classes of people. We find in it the home of those in good circumstances of life as well as the poor, among the whites as well as the blacks. As to the cause of this disease the investigators are divided. One class, called the zeists, are trying to find the cause in the use of spoiled corn used as food. The other class, called the anti-zeists, are trying to find the cause elsewhere than in damaged corn. We do not know what the cause is so far as investigation has gone, but the most prevalent theory advanced is the corn theory. importance of maintaining hygienic surroundings as the body in a good healthy SHELBYVILLE NO.

Mrs. Maggie Davis, Miss While this disease may appear at any season of the year, the spring is the most favorable season. The patient has at first an attack of indigestion as he may call it, and pays slight attention to it. This indigestion is soon followed by an attack of diarrhoea. He may not pay very much attention to the diarrhoea and use only ordinary means for relief, thinking perhaps it was brought on by some error in diet. When he gets no better he will then consult his physician, who likewise may pay it slight attention, prescribe as ordinarie for acute diarrhoea and dismiss the patient. But the diarrhoea gets no better, the patient returns to the doctor, and when the condition fails to yield to treatment both the con 7011 cern of the patient and the doctor becomes increased. Soon then comes the second stage of the disease, the characteristic skin eruption. This eruption usually appears on the hands first. Usually on the joints of the fingers. At first it resembles a sun burn. It is somewhat inflammatory in its character and extends up the hand and wrist as far as the coat sleeve comes down presenting the appearance of a glove on the hand. It may appear also on the feet or other exposed parts of the body. The striking characteristic about this eruption is that it appears at exactly the same spot on each hand, foot, side of face, or wherever it appears and spreads in exactly the same manner at the same time. These conditions will continue and soon the third stage of the disease will appear, namely, disturbance of the nervous system. This disturbance will vary in degree from a melancholia to insanity. The patient becomes progressively emaciated, anaemic, bedridden and death slowly but surely closes the scene. Ignorant of the cause of this disease, we can offer nothing as a specific for its cure. Therefore, I say it is worse than tuberculosis, for tuberculosis can be cured; worse than hookworm disease, for that can be cured for 57 cents; worse than the dreaded smallpox or yellow fever, for we know how to prevent them, but for pellagra there is no cure. Do I believe it is contagious? No. It is a rare thing to find more than one person in each family affected. And this is one very potent argument against the corn theory. I believe that pellagra will be found to be of infective origin and like tuberculosis and other infective diseases, its spread depends upon the vital resistance of the individual.

Fisk University Defeated by State Normal—in First Game Normal Triumphs 9 to 6. The A. & I. State Normal School last Saturday on Bennett field in its first game of baseball defeated the strong Fisk nine by the close score of 9 to 6. It being an ideal baseball day, the boosters of both schools were out in full, and showed their deep interest by their rooting. Davis, besides letting his opponents down with five hits, struck out eighteen men. He was ably supported by Howell, his battery partner, who handled his speed with great ease. Fisk was forced to use three pitchers, namely, Suggs, Smith and Lewis, but none of them could stop the onslaught of the Normal boys who ran bases at will. For the State Normal, the battery work was the bright feature, while for Fisk, the hitting of Kindle, who made a double, triple and homer out of three times at the plate, aided the Fisk boys in getting all of their runs. COMMENCEMENT OF MEHARRY MEDICAL COLLEGE. COMMENCEMENT OF MEHARRY MEDICAL COLLEGE. (Continued from page 1.) elation of Dental Faculties and Pharmaceutical Colleges. The committee that is sustained by the Carnegie foundation sustained the standing that was given Meharry by these Associations. Dr. Hubbard has spent 49 years in educational work among Negroes in Nashville. In 1864 he began this work in the Nelson Merry Baptist Church on Pearl street, where he established a private school under the auspices of that church. Rev. Merry was a friend and supporter of Dr. Hubbard long before he graduated in medicine. It is an interesting story to have Dr. Hubbard tell you of the early beginning of his work in Nashville along educational lines. In speaking of the opportunities of the Negro physicians it was brought out that they come in closer contact with the white men who are engaged in the same profession than any class of professional men of the race. The day has never been when the Negro physician could not get a conference with a white physician. They have always shown a willingness to help the Negro doctors in every way possible. Another impression the Meharry students receive while under the tutelage of Dr. Hubbard is race confidence. There have been times when the students have not been willing to give such work as comes in their line to those Negroes who have prepared themselves to do it. But Dr. Hubbard goes out of the way to see to it that they patronize Negroes who are engaged in business and who have proved that that they are competent to do first-class work. This is drilled into the minds of the young doctors. Such training prepares them for leadership as they go out into the world. Dr. Hubbard is a great believer in the possibilities of the race, and he never fails to impress the students with that fact. He believes that the students of Meharry are competent to go out into the world and make a creditable showing in medicine and he also believes that if the Negro can learn the science of medicine he also has the capacity to learn other things, and such principles are being inculcated in the minds of the students of Meharry. Dr. Hubbard is not only sending out men trained as physicians, but men trained in the belief of self-help and self-confidence. Graduates of Meharry Medical College. Since its Establishment. The following is the number of graduates who have received diplomas at the hands of its faculty: Medical graduates, 1,214; dental, 236; pharmaceutical, 197; nurses, 40. Total number of graduates from Meharry, 2,687. The annual income of these physicians ranges from $500 to $5,000, with an average of about $1,000. The majority of them have good homes and well-equipped offices and libraries. There are exceptional cases, of course, with the physician as with all other men. Some have accumulated considerable wealth and they have been able to invest their earnings profitably and have received good returns from the same, while others who have not been so crafty in the art of business but who nevertheless have done WALL PAPER Wright Bros. & Turner 303 Fifth Avenue, North Batting Order as much for humanity in an earnest and painstaking performance of their duty toward humanity. There are some doctors who are contented to earn a fair living, and who devote all their time and energy to research and in giving to the world what they have learned in their profession that the suffering of humanity may be lessened. So if all these men do not accumulate great wealth for themselves they cannot be put down as failures, for they have in truth performed a great service for humanity. Attendance at Mehairy This Year. In the medical department there were 232; in the dental department, 136; pharmaceutical, 49; nurses, 14. Total enrollment this year, 522. This is a little below the enrollment of last year, due to several causes. The students who go north every summer are finding it harder each year to secure employment, as the immigration tide continues in that section, and there is not such a demand for help as there was years ago. Another thing that made it inconvenient for some was due to the floods that caused a great loss to the crops in the Southern States in 1912. It is predicted, however, that the attendance next year will be greater than it was last year or is this year, as the conditions are most favorable to farmers, and the high ranking of Mehairy will cause many to come from other sections of the country. There are medical colleges that have been graded as high as Mehairy which, since the test has been applied, could not come up to the standard. WM. A.
