EACH EXERCISE REPLETE WITH ENTHUSIASM
Crowds Pack the House on Every Occasion—Class Day Exercises A High Order and Pleased The People—Trustee Board Meeting—Bishop Jones Not Present—Dispute.
Shelbyville, Tenn., May 29.—The Commencement at Turner Normal College has been in progress since last week, beginning with the 21st and ended today. It proved to be the greatest in the history of the school. The undergraduates gave a play on the 21st, titled, "The Bogus School Inspector," to the delight of all. Class Day Exercises were held Thursday night, in the presence of a large audience. Besides the different papers read and addresses delivered, by members of the classes, a distinctively pleasing feature of the evening entertainment was a debate, subject: "Resolved, That Women Should Have the Right of Suffrage." Affirmative: Misses Hattie Smith, Eliza Dale and Lillian Pinkerton; Negative: Messrs. George Wilhoit and William Winston and Miss Kittle Brooks. Decision was given in favor of the negative.
The Children's Play: "The Faries of the Season," which was rendered Friday night, under the direction of Miss M. C. Boddle, was one of the most pleasing features of the entire Commencement period.
Sunday was indeed a high day in Shelbyville. The college chapel was filled to overflowing at 2 o'clock, and the campus swarmed with multitudes of visitors on the occasion of the baccalaureate sermon. The following program in part was rendered: Professional, Miss Killian; anthem by choir; invocation; anthem, Unfold Ye Portals, choir; scripture lesson; solo, Ave Maria, Miss Killian; sermon by Rev. J. H. Smith, of Chattanooga. Comment upon the great sermon of Rev. Smith was upon every lip during the rest of the week.
The student body assembled at the A. M. E. Church at night to listen to mon was pronounced by many to have the annual sermon by Rev. I. Johnson, of Columbia. An immensethrong packed the building to its most capacity. President J. A. Jones presided over the meeting. The serbeen the strongest ever delivered on a like occasion.
The anniversary of the college societies was held Monday night in the chapel, when a good program was rendered. Dr. T. W. Stephens, of Nashville, delivered the annual address to the college societies.
Tuesday at 2 p. m. the trustees ee with Vice President Lewis presiding. The following were present: Revs J. H. Smith, G. W. Worter, A. P. Gray, J. A. Crump, D. A. Graham, W. A. Lewis, T. W. Stephens, J. Q. Johnson, Rev. Shelto, W. F. Gardner, W. V. Hawkins, W. B. Morfon, T. L. D. Ledbetter, — Johnson, — White, — Bell, President J. A. Jones and D. A. Hart. Rev. L. Jas. Johnson, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, of Columbia, stated that he was ready to make the report for his church. The point was raised that it was the custom to make the report to the presiding elder, but the Board voted that Rev. Johnson make his report and report to the presiding elder. Dr. J. A. Jones, president, read his annual report, reviewing the work of the school during the year. It showed that the work had prospered and the outlook was bright. He called attention to the competition, but stated that Turner Normal has held her own and was able to meet all obligations without embarrassment. Enrollment for the year, 256, including day and boarding students. Rev. W. A. Lewis, vice president, thanked the members of the Board who were present despite the fact that the Bishop was absent. It was the general opinion that many others would have been present if Bishop Jones could have been at the meeting. The absent members were censured for their neglect of duty.
The reports of the president and treasurer were read and referred to the respective committees.

BLOOD HOUNDS TREE WHITE MAN
TRAIL WAS STRUCK AT FISK UNI-
VERSITY BUILDING
Dogs Kept Hot track to White Man's
..House—Jumped on His Bed and
Tore Up Things—Would Not
Be Led Away—Man Not Ar-
rested—Not Certain Dogs
Were Correct.
On last Thursday morning, May
22, it was discovered at Fisk Uni-
versity that some one had been stealing
from the institution. So annoyed
were the members of the faculty in
charge that it was thought adylisable
to secure blood hounds to trace the
guilty party.
When the dogs reached the grounds
they struck out a chase which they
never relinguished until they had
come into the house of a white man
on Amonsia street, even going into
the bed. The dogs could not be turn-
ed off their trail.
The white man, it is said, conducts a grocery in that community and all were so amazed when the dogs stopped at his house that they did not know what to do. No one could believe that he was the guilty party, but if there is any virtue in blood-hounds, and if there ever was a case that seemed established beyond a doubt, it was this one. It is said that they went direct to the house and lounged in and climbed all over the bed of the man. The action of the dogs seemed to have caused a great embarrassment to the faculty and no one seemed willing or to have courage enough to order the man to be arrested. At this date he is still at large. Such action is unknown in the history of Nashville and Tennessee, for the people of the south have great faith in blood hounds. You cannot make a southern believe that these famous canines will make a false report.
It has happened that they were thrown off their track but it has never been known for them to accuse the wrong party. Just why there has been so much hesitancy in arresting the man is not known.
A short while ago a Negro boy who had been in the University for several years was suspected of theft and was promptly arrested and lodged in jail. The friend of the child who had paid his expenses in the institution since he has been there, came all the way from New York and it is said that he upbraided the faculty for having treated the boy so rashly. This gentleman on his return to the East carried the young fellow with him, for he was only a child, but when a white man is chased down by bloodhounds there is still some doubt in the minds of the authorities as to his guilt and he is still at large.
ROWE'S GREAT VICTORY.
Colored Youth Chosen From Public School as Contest Orator, and Is Made President.
Buffalo, N. Y., May 15. At the second group preliminary contest for the Richmond prize, entered in by all of the pupils of the public schools, the first prize was won by George D. Rowe of School No. 13. The final contest will take place May 24. This is the first time in the history of the contest that a Colored boy has ever been chosen and naturally everyone is rejoicing over the outcome. It was easy to judge Rome the winner, as he stood above them in point of oratorical ability. Rowe received his early training in New York city, school 89, and has lived in Buffalo two years. Later Rowe was voted president of the school. The daily papers here omit to say, as is usual, that he is Colored.
MISS JENNIE NOEL RETURNS.
Miss Jennie H. Noel, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. H. Noel, is home again after having spent about six months visiting friends in New Orleans, La, Houston, San Antonio and Dallas, Texas. While in Texas Miss Noel was the recipient of much social attention. At Houston she met and was the guest of quite a number of her school friends who were in Fisk University during here period there. At San Antonio, she was the guest of the Misses Holland. At Dallas Dr. and Mrs. Dyson contributed much to her pleasant stay.

DR. JORDAN OF PHILADELPHIA
Among the notable Baptist Ministers who were in the city last week and a part of this week was the Rev. L. G. Jordan, D. D., Secretary of the Foreign Mission Board, which recently moved from Louisville, Ky., to Philadelphia, Pa., where they purchased new quarters, and where is located a printing plant to assist in the prosecution of the foreign mission work. Dr. Jordan spent much time in looking up a convenient location for his Board during Baptist Convention to be held in this city. He preached Sunday morning at the First Baptist Church, East Nashville, and on Sunday afternoon at the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church. On Monday he spoke to the Baptist Ministers' Conference and left Tuesday to be present at the Board Meeting of the Baptist Convention at Memphis, Thursday, stopping Tuesday night to speak at Brownville.
RECOGNIZING FAITHFUL SERVICE - RECEPTION AND BANQUET TO SCHOOL TEACHERS FRIENDS AND WIVES.

They will give a reception and banquet in honor of the city teachers on Monday night, June 9, from 7:30 to 10:30 o'clock.
The matter was decided upon at a meeting of the church officers on Tuesday night at the church, and they have planned to make the occasion one of the most agreeable and helpful ever held in the interest of education, teachers and the public welfare in general.
CITY SCHOOLS COMMENCEMENT.
Special to the Globe.
Clarksville, Tenn., May 27.—The closing exercises of our city schools began May 18th with the Baccalaureate sermon by Rev. T. H. Copeland. On Thursday, the exhibits of class work took place in the hall of domestic science. This exhibit showed rare ability in drawing, painting, needle work and cooking. Miss McKabe, who opened up this line of work only a few months ago is to be congratulated upon its great success. The commencement on the morning of the 23rd was held in the Opera House which was filled to overflowing. The graduating class consisted of three young men and eleven young ladies. Prof. W. H. Singleton of the State Normal delivered the address in lieu of President W. J. Hale, who was unavoidable detained. Prof. Singleton's address was practical and well received.
REV. D. A. TOWNSEND, D. D., OF

Rev. D. A. Townsend, D. D., of Winchester, Tennessee, father of Dr. A. M. Townsend of this city, was in Nashville this week attending the Commencement exercises at Roger Williams University and looking after some other denominational matters, Rev. Townsend has for more than a quarter of a century been an active preacher of Tennessee, as well as the principal of one of the best city schools in Middle Tennessee.

lege, Jefferson City, Tenn. Prof. L. C. McAlister, A. M. President of Nelson Merry College at Jefferson City, Tennessee, is spending a week in Nashville doing double duty. He is opening an office at the Old Fellows' Hall building as one of the commissioners from Tennessee recently appointed by the Executive Committee of the National Baptist Convention to collect exhibits for the Pittsith Anniversary to be held in connection with the National Baptist Convention in September. All arrangements for the pushing of a vigorous campaign to collect data, photographs, and in fact, put on a great physical demonstration, from a Tennessee stand point, were completed this week. Prof. McAlister had printed and sent out a large number of personal letters to the leading pastors in the state urging that they co-operate with the National Committee in this work. Prof. McAlister was also a very prominent visitor at the Commencement exercises at Roger Williams University. He will not return to East Tennessee until after the meeting of the Sunday-School Congress, as he is to go to Muskegon on the Special Train now being arranged, having already selected his reservation for this occasion.

ROGER WILLIAMS
YOUNG PEOPLE RECEIVE DIPLOMAS FROM DEPARTMENTS
Dr. James I. Vance Principal Speaker—Subject "Equipment for Life"
—Strong Practical Talk to Graduates—Conferring Degrees—Life Size Pictures
Founder of Institution.
The commencement exercises at Roger Williams University were concluded Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock when Dr. James I. Vance, D. D., pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, delivered the principle address.
The graduating class on this occasion consisted of two members: Ambrose A. Bennett and Festus E. Jeffries. They graduated from the college department and received the degree of A. B.
A large crowd was present to witness the closing exercises. The auditorium was packed beyond its capacity and the people were standing in the hall and out on the campus. The exercises were late beginning. They were scheduled to begin at 10 o'clock but it was 11:30 before the professional march struck up, however, the people were patient and with a few exceptions all remained until the exercises ended.
Dr. Vance, who was introduced by Dr. Vance, caver, pastor of the Dr. Vance Episcopal Church in Boca Raton, Florida.
"I want now to speak of your endurance. I like a man who will stick at his post and fight it out to the end. Stick at it through thick and thin and fight it out to the end. Be dead game and you will win."
At the conclusion of the address the Young Men's Glee Club sang two selections that were heartily received. President Johnson conferred degrees and presented certificates. He then made a few remarks to the class and encouraged them to press forward in life and to consecrate themselves to the uplift of humanity.
The ushers were then asked to bring in two pictures that had been presented to the University; they were the founders of the institution in the persons of Rev. Daniel Phillips and wife. Miss Joanna Moore was asked to cut the strings; she ascended the rostrum, but in her fecility she asked Prof. Johnson to untie them. She then made a short talk, very appropriate to the occasion. She told of the work of the Fireside School and how she had been encouraged in the work to which she has devoted most of her life. She urged others to do something helpful and urged every one present to consecrate themselves to the uplift of humanity.
President Johnson, in speaking of the history of Roger Williams, gave a brief sketch of the founder of this institution; he said:
"Forty-four years ago, when shot and shell had scarcely ceased to deal their deadly blows; when the smoke of battle had scarcely cleared away; in short, when this especial section of our "common country" was still a seething and unsettled mass; when the results of that revolutionary per-

and Students Visit Chattanooga—Trip Over Tennessee Central Railroad
The first annual commencement of the State Normal and Industrial School was held Friday morning, May 23, in the college chapel. A large audience was present despite the long distance from the end of the car line. Though some of them were late arriving, they all seemed to enjoy that part of the exercises they heard.
The meeting was opened by a processional march played by Miss Hazel Thompson, instructor in music. Chorus, "All Hail You Ye Free," was beautifully rendered by the college chorus. Invocation by Dr. C. W. Morrow, of Fisk University. The Girls Glee club sang beautifully "De Little Pickaninies Gone to Sleep." Prof. W. J. Hale, president of the institution, introduced Prof. H. Bleach Carre, of Vanderbilt, as the principle speaker of the hour. He selected as his subject, "The Big Jobs in the World." The speaker gave a strong lecture on putting brains into everything attempted to be done. He related a story of a white man, the Indian and the Negro, who were left to choose one tool of three, which story goes that the white man took the smallest, which was a writing pen; the Indian took the next in size, which was a bow and arrow, and the Negro took the largest, which was the pick and shovel.
He said the idea prevailed that the man with the pick and shovel was to be the menial laborer; but he said when it is taken into consideration that by putting brain into digging ditches, man has revolutionized that class of labor until now instead of digging with a pick and shovel, machinery has been made that can dig and lift as much with one stroke as a hundred men can shovel in a day. He urged the graduating class to put brain into everything that they attempted to do, and to strive to do it a little better than the other fellow has been able to do it. The speaker said by following such a course no one need complain of being a ditch digger or any other class of laborer, for the bigness and greatness depended upon the amount of brain put in it.
At the conclusion of the address Miss Emma Cheers sang "Goodbye" very effectively. The male quartet rendered two selections that were heartily applauded. President Hale, assisted by Prof. Carre, then presented the diplomas to the classes which consisted of 46 in the preparatory class and 22 candidates for certificates of promotion for Junior Normal. The members of the classes are as follows, with their officers:

From J. M. Singleton,
Knoxville, Tenn., May 18, 1913.—
It is almost wonderful how our lodges
of Knoxville have grown. For several
years we had only one lodge—
the Toussaint L'Ouverture No. 7.
Then the next was Lucullus No. 43,
then Bridge City No. 55 and then
Mountain Home Lodge No. 66, and
after that the J. C. Price No. 105, and
last to be organized is Knoxville
Lodge No. 113.
Each lodge enjoys a large membership, together with two uniform ranks. The last one was organized less than a month ago with 23 members. Our lodges are growing steadily. Each lodge takes in new members at each meeting. All are trying to get the largest membership. The Pythians of our city are wide-awake and are doing all in their power to push forward the Booster Campaign Respectfully yours,

From Dr. J. W. Whitfield.
We desire to state through the columns of your very highly appreciated and newsy paper that the Knights of Pythias in this section are forging to the front in the Booster Boom Endeavor to add ten thousand new members to the roster of the grand jurisdiction of Tennessee. We wish to assure the brethren and people of West Tennessee that Middle Tennessee will certainly come up in the Grand Lodge in Nashville on the second Tuesday in July with our part of the membership desired.
The flower of the young manhood of our race is now taking advantage of the Booster Boom rates to connect themselves with this magnificent and world-wide order, Knights of Pythias N. A. S. A. E. A. A. & A. We are very much gratified to note that increased interest for the Uniform Ranks by our young Knights is evinced by calls from many places for organization of companies.
Cansler Lodge No. 122, of Murfreesboro, is putting forth strenuous effort to have a company of the Uniform Rank to report to the Grand Lodge at its next convention. The initiation team of Cansler Lodge No. 122 will assist us in setting up a new lodge at Emery Chapel next Monday night. It is a great source of pleasure to us to observe that the loyal men and women of the lodge and the Court of Calanite are pulling together as one to place our beloved order in the rank where it so rightfully belongs as one of the foremost fraternal orders known and fostered by the Negro race, largely due to the credit of Dr. J. P. Crawford, G. C.; Dr. R. F. Boyd, G. W. C. (deceased); A. W. Fite, V. D, G. C. Dortch and many others of the Old Guard who made unselfish personal sacrifices during the troublous times when our order was struggling for its life, attacked within disgruntled factions, and assaulted without by a most formidable enemy armed with all the power and force that wealth, intelligence and prestige before the law could afford, yet through it all we came out victorious, and today are attracting the admiration and attention of the fraternal

world in our phenomenal, numerical, financial and material growth, led by that peerless leader and broad-hearted champion of southern Pythianism, Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor of the State of Tennessee.
We congratulate Memphis and Negroes of West Tennessee in their good fortune of having such a man in their midst as the able editor and eloquent crator, R. C. Simmons.

ACHIEVEMENTS OF PYTHIANISM IN TENNESSEE.
Dr. A. M. Townsend, Grand Keeper of Records and Seals.
Whenever I think of Pythianism, I think of an aggressive and compact organization of men and women who have no ambition to be styled magnetic men or women, but who possess dignity without boasting, modesty without diffidence, courage without rashness, magnanimity without selfishness, bravery without haughtiness, a sense of obligation without vain conceit, and an interest for the welfare of all mankind without jealousy or discrimination.
All that is best and truest within us leads us to appreciate that most excellent and enduring quality of fraternalism that is far-reaching and deathless, touching as it does the mainsprings of our nature, transforming and refining our life, and building up in symmetrical character those elements of moral supremacy, intellectual activity and social affinities that enhance and make forever valuable the work we are doing. This being true in life's experience and which we see wrought out so plainly in Pythianism, we are compelled therefore in appreciation of the splendid results that have come to us and
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 30, 1913.
in the midst of our success, to turn our thoughts to that personality who is capable of producing a flower instead of a thistle, of planting a germ thought in the human heart capable of rising higher and higher until it obtains the mastery, and in its ascen

dency lifts the whole man to a clearer vision of life's duty and privilege. Then too it is beftitting that we pause and turn our thought in honor to the magic hands that wrought in other days and amid Pythian temples.
"And Castle halls grown old in story," Search out and extol the men—those geniuses of fraternalism, those exemplars of Pythianism, those exponents of friendship, those interpreters of charity, and those living examples of benevolence, who laid for us the foundation principles of our order, through practice of which darkness is dispelled from many a sad home, shelter, refuge and defense are provided for the widow, tears of the fatherless are wiped away, the bleeding of lacerated hearts is checked, the sufferings of brother assuaged, the dead are buried, and the home saved from mortgage and the invasion of grafters.
Then again too much praise cannot be given those loyal Knights and Calanthe who make up the rank and file of the order. While those of us in office discharge our duties to the best of our abilities, yet our efforts would have fallen far short of what has been accomplished without the valuable assistance rendered by the membership at large. Like successful armies, those in charge can direct and plan, but the battles are fought and won by the men who march elbow to elbow in the ranks, and to these valliant fighters and soldiers to whom we are indebted for present state of existence, full credit is due.
Once upon a time the life of the Negro people was completely wrapped up in secret societies. During this period they were unmercifully preyed upon by unscrupulous sharks who went about promising the "earth and the fulness thereof," duping the ignorant and wary and disgracing the Negro race. By and by there came a reaction. The pendulum swung terrifically the other way and secret orders became for a moment a hissing and by-word among men.
Leading and influential individuals took up the sword against them, batting manfully but often unwisely. They destroyed nothing of course but rather they served a useful end in that they drove out before them the vicious and the mean, the dishonest and unscrupulous in large measures at least, from the leadership of these societies and made way for men of intelligence and of courage to take their place far in front, there to establish the efficiency of secret organizations and to demonstrate that they have a place in the life of the Negro people, a place that is high and deserving of respect and regard.
The service rendered by those valaint leaders who have in recent years ventured forth, grasped the gavel and occupied the station in the various secret orders is beyond computation. Fifty years hence when the fruit of the tree will be esplable we may begin to compute and measure; 'tis then that we will see what manner of service and the extent of it these men have done and how vallantly they have striven not only to build with symmetry and proportion the castles and the temples, but to reassure those for whom they have builted. Then will be demonstrated that the leaders in Pythianism had faith all the while and believed that when the patriotism and the fervor of the alms and strivings of secret order became known, it must be recognized that yonder comes a new and grander body, having in its right hand the flaming torch of Friendship in its left hand the flower of Fraternity, and upon its forehead a garland wreath of Myrtle entwined about with immortelles.
The growth of Pythianism has been steady and uniform, and looking back upon the rooting of this growth we do not wonder that now and then, here and there, have there come forth divers organizations for the most part
imposing masqueraders, to prey upon and dupe the people and lead astray. The wonder is rather that there have not been more of this kind of thing done. The soothing and helpful thought in this connection is that the orders and organizations that deserved to do so have survived and by their honesty and worthiness proved the dishonesty and unworthiness of those that did not so deserve. The survival of the fittest.
In the roll of such societies as have grown and spread whether the weather was foul or fair, whether all was discontent and gloom or song and sunshine, the Knights of Pythias may well answer first. A mighty order in this day; its virtues first upon the lips of men, its principles an inspiring force in the life of those who have embraced its faith. Father Stringer laid the foundation deep; he dug well. The superstructure has totered no few times but it has not fallen because it was built upon a rock.
The Knights of Pythias have developed into a wealthy and powerful order, though it began as a fraternal and benevolent institution. In fact its foundation will ever be fraternal and benevolent. Whatever eminence it may reach or whatever honors it may win it must still remain first a benevolent institution. In that we glory.
When Edmund Burk made the statement in the British House of Commons that "the age of Chivalry is past," his declaration has utterly untrue. It was indeed an age of Chivalry when the Fraternities of Hospitallers and the Templars and the Teutonic Knights were established, having for their object the care of the sick and wounded crusaders, the entertainment of Christian pilgrims, the guarding of the holy places and ceaseless battling for the cross. Carrying out these rightly formed purposes, these fraternities soon acquired military fame that was spread throughout the Christian world.
But the age of Chivalry has not passed. The age of Chivalry will never pass so long as men can be found who will live up to the obligations of Pythianism. As Knights of Pythias we can make this twentieth century just as much an age of Chivalry as the century which gave to the world a Tancreed, or a Godfrey de Bouillion, the most valiant and devoted of the crusader Knights. It is being done today by the thousands of good men and women in our ranks. Shall I tell you how?
"Wherever a mantle of pity falls soft upon a wound of woe, Wherever a peace or pardon springs
Wherever a peace or pardon springs up to overmaster a foe. Wherever a foe springs out
Wherever a soft hand of blessing out stretches to succor a need,
Men are showing the jewels of the order, and are "Girl with bad"
ODE TO THE K. OF P.
By Mrs. R. W. Abernathy.
All hall to the Knights of Pythias,
Blest be the day of her birth.
May her arms continue to stretch
forth,
Till they've encircled the earth.
Press onward, Sir Knight, press onward!
Till you reach an endless chain;
We'll sing and laud your praises,
Till we hear them re-echo again.
Press onward, Sir Knight, look upward,
And never betray any trust;
While we talk of your wonderful greatness,
Keep your banner from trailing the dust.
God bless her noble efforts
And crown them with boundless usceess.
Let her sons and daughters press onward
Till they reach that haven of rest.

Jackson, Tenn.—I thought that I would let the boys throughout the grand old domain of Tennessee hear from Jackson and the surrounding country. We can boast of having four good lodges and two courts in Jackson, and we have two tronic members of the K. P. Lodge and one deputy who is, a mighty busy man when it comes to organizing new lodges. We can boast of having more than 250 loyal, true and tried Pythian Knights. The two courts have nearly 75 Calanthians, who stand by the Grand Court in adversities as well as prosperities. We can boast of having enrolled on our roster some of the best men and women in the city. We feel that our officers in both lodges and courts are honest and true, and each is working to build up the order in general. The Court is presided over by one who has held the place since the court was first organized and is held in high esteem by the courts. We have all tried to fol low the leadership of our superior of (Continued on Page 6.)

Negroes' Welfare in Danger.
It is evident that the welfare of the educational interests of the Negroes in Nashville is in eminent danger. If any one doubts it they only need to reflect a moment.
It will be remembered that a few months ago it was established beyond a shadow of doubt that the present site of the High School is considered good enough by the present principal, because he told the children that a new building would be erected on the present site. An attempt was made to explain this assertion, but in the explanation the admission was made that the charge was true. In defending the position taken this assertion was dropped: that ten years hence would be ample time for the people to begin talking about this matter. This is one feature of the case we want to call attention to.
The idea that the people are not competent to judge what is best for them is not new. It is the root of most of the troubles we have especially in regard to public affairs, and even to a degree in cases of private business. One man or a few men elect to know what the people should have and what they want. They delegate to themselves the right to go into star chamber caucuses and make out a program to be submitted as the opinion and wishes of the people, and to make matters worse, they, as a rule, know very little about the people. The Star Chamber is in existence in Nashville now. One grave matter that should be looked into is, shall all school buildings for Negroes be located on high ground or low ground? Is it possible to get the best result in a school house located where the noise of trains and factories make it impossible for teachers to be heard? And where the health of the children is always imperiled? These are questions that the Negroes of Nashville must look after.
It is hoped that in the near future a new high school building will be erected for the colored population of the city. The present principal says ten years hence will be time enough for the people to discuss the matter, but we believe it is imperative that the people discuss the matter now. Shall the high school be built on high ground or shall it be built in some bottom under a railroad trestle among factories and warehouses? If this matter is left to the Star Chamber, rest assured the High School and all other institutions for public use will be in some vice-ridden vicinity or under some railroad trestle.
The Japanese are throwing sop at the American Negroes. No use, buddies, this is home and the Negroes love it, despite her hellishness; and any nation that doubts it only has to come meddling around.
Every man in Nashville who has not paid his poll taxes should do so at once. Your vote is a valuable asset.
Parents should look after their children, whether they are at church or at a public place of amusement. They need your guidance all the time, everywhere.
Whether Jack Johnson spends the next five years in prison or in Paris, there is one white hope who will never be champion.

The Primitive Baptists of Franklin had baptizing on Saturday. Rev. Z. Bostic and A. Ribert preached Satur-
day night and on Sunday. Rev. Wm. Wilson and Rev. L. Mason preached to a large congregation. There was communion and washing of feet. Rev. Wilson and Rev. Wm. Moore will attend a union meeting at Little Harpeth Primitive Baptist Church and Mr. Tom Turner will have wagons to carry the people from Franklin to Little Harpeth. Everybody come, for we are going to have preaching and then there will be free dinner so you can meet your friends and enjoy yourselves.

(Continued from Page 1.)
riod had only begun to be realized; when four millions of our race had recently become freedmen, and were scathed here and there among those who had been their former masters, at that time there came upon the scene here in Nassauville a man foreign bred and born and brought up, a Welchman in fact. His ancestral line, Lincoln-like, had been that of an humble yet honest kind, whose character was as rugged as the mountains that envisioned his birth and early life, fitting him particularly for the service which he later in life nobly volunteered to perform among a hostile people and for an ignorant and despised and untutored child race here in America, a race not his own either.
"Considering his early life it was easily of a kind that seamed and enriched his character with a sympathy with the lowly of birth and race, necessary for the fullest and most efficient service for my people.
"Becoming a man and having made permanent his home in America, the asylum of the oppressed and aspiring, he fitted himself, though in manhood, intellectually, by his earnest application throughout the full four years College Course at the feet of that modern Gamaliel of mental and moral training, Francis Wayland, president of Brown University, Providence, R. I. Added to this, he was a man whose early life must have been spent around such a fireside that there was inculcated upon his spiritual and moral life a third and necessary element that combined in happy proportion with the others to make him the broad personality he was well known to be, by a number of us present here today and a multitude scattered over this and many sister States of Tennessee. Such a man founded Roger Williams University, and labored unstinctedly and unceasingly in real altruistic fashion for twenty odd years to build broadly and securely this Institution whose reputation has extended far and wide, even beyond the seas. He was in truth a ministering angel to my race. His memory we revere and cherish here today in the portals of this magnificent structure in whose arched entrance in characters imperishable is carved the surname of the late Rev. Daniel Williams Philips, Doctor of Divinity."
The names of those graduating from the different departments are as follows:
College: Mr. Ambrose A. Bennett and Mr. Festus E. Jeffries.

THE CAUSE OF OUR GROWTH.
By Dr. Wm. Sevier, Damon No. 21.
About sixteen years ago a friend of mine requested me to come with him
R. W. ALLEN.
and join a certain lodge out of the many of this city. We were then seeking a young man's home, some place of pleasure and profit, a home where we thought brother love, kindness, honesty and sobriety would affiliate socially, and would be helpful to us in many ways, as we thought then and more so now that a young man should always try to be associated with the best societies, secret or otherwise, of his city, state or country, as aids to help him to be a useful industrious, quiet and peaceful citizen. We surveyed the field as best we could and at last decided to cast our lot with the then very young and almost unknown organization known to the road. Only sorry that you are grow up with this then infant lodge. Am I sorry? Only sorry that you young men do not know a good thing when you meet it in the middle of the roa. Only sorry that you are to own with us in sentiment and action. Do you ask why has the K. of P. grown so rapidly? The only answer is that it was and is today built on the basic principles of charity and true friendship and is conducted on strictly business principles. It does all that it promises and more toward helping its sick, widows and orphans, and many times it has extended its hand to help others who were in distress and need. This lodge has been watched by the citizens of this city and its good conduct in caring for its sick, helping its widows to pay taxes on a modest home, supplying coal and food to the poor and distressed, and seeking to aid its orphans, seeing that they are not cast into the streets and allowed to grow in ignorance, poverty and shame. The lodge pays all of its obligations promptly when due; that is why it has grown in a few years from a mere handful to more than a thousand active members in this city alone.
This is truly the lodge for the young man. You want and need social recognition. If you wish to be associated with the best of your community from any viewpoint, such as ministers of the gospel, lawyers, doctors, drugists, school teachers, mechanics, last but by no means least, the honest and industrious farmers and the daily laboring man, this is the society and place for you. This lodge is progressive, leading in the best things that are productive of honesty, morality, virtue and intelligence. A majority of the best business and leading men of the cities and state are with us, giving their time, money and influence to promote its future growth and development for God and humanity. Young men of this state, will you join us?
Your friend,
WM. SEVIER

A. M. E. vs. N. C. Stars, Hadley Park.
Nashville Globe vs. B'Back Soxs, Salem Town.
Athletics vs. Southern Stars, Belmont.
Y. M. C. A. vs. Baptist Hill Swiftts, Cheek-Neal.
The second clash in the Capital City League developed several changes in the standing of the clubs. The Southern Stars defeated the Nashville Globe and the A. M. E.'s won from the Black Soxs. This pushed the Globe down a notch, and at the same time the Y. M. C. A. pushed the Athletics down a notch. The Baptist Hill Swiftts and the N. and C. Stars were rained out Monday. Good crowd witnessed each game and pulled hard for their favorite teams. Some complaint has been made about rough playing, but it is not believed it will be necessary for this charge to be registered again, as every manager expresses the desire to have clean base ball on a high plane.
A. M. E. S. S. UNION WINS
In a hard-fought battle at Salem Town the S. S. Union defeated the Black Sox by a score of 5 to 3. Fast fielding marked the work of the Soxs, while the hitting of the S. S. U. came in bunches. The feature of the game was a fast triple play by the Soxs.

SUMMER SCHOOLS AND INSTITUTES OPENING ON THIS MONDAY
Three Institutes will be held in the State this summer for the benefit of teachers. Each of them will be in charge of an able faculty of school people who are thoroughly informed as to the needs of public school teachers. A review of many of the subjects of the public school course will be given and will be as thorough as time and circumstances permit. This review will not be for the express purpose of getting the content of the subject, but the emphasis will be rather upon the best methods of presentation. At all times the instructors will have in mind the needs of teachers, and every effort will be made to adapt the instruction to their needs.
For Middle Tennessee teachers the Institute will be held in connection with the State Agricultural and Industrial Normal School in Nashville and will continue for six weeks, beginning June 2. The entire faculty of the school for the past year will give instruction and there will be several of the newly elected teachers present to aid in the work. Opportunity will be offered for study of the public school branches as well as any of the general courses offered in the school. Particular attention will be paid to industrial work, including Agriculture and Domestic Science. Teachers who expect to attend should write to President W. J. Hale, Nashville, Tennessee.
For West Tennessee teachers an institute will be held in connection with Lane College, at Jackson, and will continue for four weeks, beginning June 9. All of the faculty of this institution will be placed at the disposal of teachers attending an opportunity offered not only for study of the public school branches, but of any other work given in the school Industrial work, adapted to the needs of country teachers, will be stressed, and one of the Jeannes Rural Supervisors will have charge of it. Teachers who expect to attend should muncilize with President J. F. Lane Jackson, Tennessee.

NEGRO WEATHER PROPHET.
Nashville, Tenn., May 23, 1913.
Sir--Having transacted some business through your paper, now I have something new on hand of such a nature as to interest you. Well it seems that inefficiency has so far clogged the progress of any colored man of Nashville as to being a weather forecast man for our colored newspapers. I am able to inform you every week on a Monday as to the certainty of fair weather or whether it will rain even to the day. It is very much credit to say that I am able to predict better than most forecast men I have read after even in Nashville and other large cities. I hope you may be interested in my new discovery and also interest others.
Thanks, I remain yours,
EASTERN COLORED BRANCH
URBARY
The Louisville Free Public Library system at present consists of a main library and seven branches with an eighth branch under construction. One of the seven branches and the new branch under construction are exclusively for colored citizens. The work in the colored branch increased to such an extent that a second branch for Negroes was necessary. The first building, at the corner of Teatl and Chestnut street, is in the center of the Western colored population, and the new building under construction, at the corner of Hancock and Lampton streets, will be in the center of the Eastern colored population.
The site, 75 feet on Hancock and 150 feet on Lampton, cost $5,000; $1,000 of this amount was donated by colored citizens. The building to be erected on this site will combine social center features with library work, is 60 feet by 80 feet and estimated to cost $22,500 complete. The first floor is the library proper, and across from the main hallway, on the same floor, is an auditorium that will accommodate 350 opera chairs. The basement will be five feet below and seven feet above ground with a 12-foot ceiling with large, high windows well arranged for ventilation and light. Under the library proper are three class rooms, engine room, toilets, etc. The class rooms are divided by five-foot walls with movable glass windows to the ceiling, arranged to be lowered or raised for ventilation and light. The entire basement under the assembly room is for a gymnasium and play room for winter months.
The rear of the lot, 60x75 feet, will be used as a public play ground under the control of the library, and in the "L" of the building it is expected will be placed experimental flower and vegetable gardens conducted by the
library in connection with the Louisville Garden League. The building is to be of red sand brick, with plain stone window sills, void of any undue ornamentation, and with a red tile roof.
Mayor W. O. Head promised a committee of colored citizens that visited him shortly after he took office, that just as soon as the work at the colored branch justified it, a second colored branch building would be erected. The work at the Colored Branch Library had increased to such an extent that additions or a new building were necessary.
Louisville has long enjoyed the reputation of having the first and only public library building exclusively for colored citizens. Since buildings have been erected in one or two other cities she will enjoy the reputation of being the only city in the country with two Colored Branch Library buildings.
STATE NORMAL COMMENCEMENT.
(Continued from Page 1.)
left over the Tennessee Central Railroad for Chattanooga. The party was made up on the T. C. line just a short ways from the school grounds. The railroad company placed a baggage coach and also a coach for passengers so that they were not inconvenienced in the least in loading up for the trip.
The coach was pulled around to the depot on First avenue and Broadway where it was attached to the regular train. It was a jolly group of students returning home to be with their parents and other relatives for the vacation, and teachers, going for a little recreation after a hard year's work.
The trip over the T. C. was a most pleasant one. This line traverses the most scenic portion of the state. Through the hills of Central Tennessee the beautiful scenery was inspiring to all members of the party, and though the journey lasted until night no one seemed to tire in the least. Many things were seen to attract their attention as the train sped on its way. One that impressed many was the scarcity of Negroes in that section of the state. After the train reached Carthage Junction there was scarcely a colored person to be seen until the town of Rockwood was reached; there several were seen and then they were conspicuous for their absence until the party was nearing Chattanooga.
At Emory Gap the school party was detached from the T. C. train and attached to the Queen and Crescent. When it arrived at the historic city at the base of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge, Prof. Hale took matters in charge and in a short while every member of the party was pleasantly located. The people of Chattanooga were waiting at the station with open arms to receive the party. Hacks were secured from Mr. D. W. Franklin, the Scientific Embaler, president of the National Association of Undertakers of America.
Bright and early Sunday morning Prof. W. H. Singleton and Prof. W. J. Hale were rounding up the members of the party for church. At 11 o'clock they assembled at Wiley Memorial M. E. Church to worship. Rev. W. H. Young, a member of the faculty of State Normal, preached at this service, the pastor being indoposed. At the conclusion of the sermon President Hale, Mr. D. A. Hart, Editor of the Nashville Globe, and Prof. A. M. Meeks were introduced and each made a short talk. They were all well received.
After services the members of the party returned to their respective homes; dinner was had and then the party assembled at the corner of Chestnut and Sixth streets, where a car was boarded for the historic Lookout Mountain. The passengers soon arrived at this point and tickets were secured for the Incline and soon the party was on the top of the Lookout Mountain. It would take several weeks to tell all that can be seen from this point. The surrounding country presents a panorama that human mind cannot describe. At one point, it is well known, seven states can be seen. The party spent several hours on the mountain, studying the historic points and gazing on the beautiful panorama that stretches out for miles in every direction.
From the summit of this mountain one gets an idea of the great possibilities of Chattanooga, there is no city in this country that is more conveniently situated than is the metropolis of the eastern part of the state, and the capitalists of the country are fast realizing this, for as soon as you set foot on the city of Chattanooga you are impressed with its aggressive progressiveness. The city was filled up with visitors to the Confederate Reunion, and after all the historic places of the city were visited, all of the party wended its way back to the city just as the shades of evening fell.
It need not be said that the crowd made it very strenuous to gain admittance to the incline station, for everybody wanted to ascend and descend at the same time, but there were only two cars with capacity for forty passengers, and when it is remembered that the incline is a point almost perpendicular, it can be realized that the accommodation for passengers must necessarily be small, but everybody seemed to enjoy the trip, and despite the fact there was a great crowd, there was little or no friction. On Monday morning the party visited the public schools and took a trin on Missionary Ridge at Chickamauga Park, visiting the famous battle grounds that were drenched in blood at the late Civil War. On Monday night the party was entertained at an elaborate banquet, given by the hospitable citizens of Chattanooga.
Tuesday was spent in sight seeing and watching the great parade, and then students and friends bade the members of the faculty adieu, and returned to their labor at the State Normal to take up the work of Sum-
mer School which opens Monday morning. The following are the names of those who made the trip: President W. J. Hale, Augusta Byrd, N. B. Massengle, L. M. Jenkins, Arnold, Lucile Akins, Huldah Brown, Coban Harper, Alice Glenn, Marie Scruggs, N. T. Longley, Verleen Dean, Isabelle Mauldin, Cora B.

TO ALL OFFICERS AND MEMBERS
OF THE ORDER OF K. OF P.,
GREETING:
The U. R. K, of P., is now on a boom in our state. For five (5) months beginning March 1st, 1913, ending July 31st, 1913, we will set up companies at a cost of $35.00. Each company must have 21 or more men in good standing in a Subordinate Lodge. Now, Knights, this is your opportunity to have a company of your own.
It is our desire and purpose to build up this department second to none in any state, and to make a report to the Grand and Supreme Lodge that has never been made before.
I appeal to you, Brothers, to grasp this opportunity while it is time, for you will never have such an opportunity again. Should you desire to organize after July 31 st, the price will be $50.00 and all expenses.
Our Grand and Supreme Lodges are fast approaching, and nothing looks finer than to see our people dressed in Uniform passing to and fro through a city or town of any size. What looks nicer than thirty or forty men in uniform followed by its Grand Lodge Officers and members of the Ord The Uniform Rank is the flower of the order, and that flower is the white lily. Why don't you be a lily by organizing, and fall in line and help to swell "The State of Old Tennessee."
I am yours in F., C. & B. and H., J. & L.
