REV. JONAH TO
QUIT BUSINESS
IS SAID TO HAVE SO DE-
CLARED AT HIS TENT
Was Advised To Do So By Several Friends
Had Collected Several Dollars on a Land Scheme—It Is Said He Had No Land to Sell.
In a tent meeting last week in East Nashville Rev. Jonah, the Zionite, is said to have made the remark to the congregation that he had decided to give up the land business. It is said that he was advised to do so by a brother Zionite who had recently joined him from Zion City, Chicago. Before doing this, however, it is said that Rev. Jonah had collected money from a good many people as first payment on the land, near Newsome Station. His plans, it seems, were to collect one dollar as first payment, fifty-seven cents of which was to go to the railroad company for a ticket and torty-three cents to Jonah. He had planned to take the party down to Newsome Station and unload them there and let them look for hte land. It is said that Rev. Jonah had no land in that vicinity to sell, but his actions in the case were so deceptive that several people paid him the first installment.
An effort was made to induce Mr. Mullins, the tounder of Hortense, to take up these forty or fifty names and let them pay the first installment to Mr. Mullins, but it seems that Mr. Jonah and Mr. Mullins could not agree on the price and the scheme went to the bad.
Rev. Jonah, it is said, will soon leave the city. Where he is going could not be learned. The town that Rev. Jonah was to establish has been abandoned and it seems from what could be learned that he has not had a foot of land in possession to sell.
ATTENDS LIFE INSURANCE
SUPPORTS DEPLIER MEETING
STOCKHOLDERS
After spending Thursday in Atlanta in attendance upon the annual stockholders' meeting of the Standard Life Insurance Company, Mr. Ira T. Bryant, the Secretary of the Sunday School Union, and Rev. Henry A. Boyd, of this city returned Friday morning. Both express themselves as being pleased with the future outlook of the first old line insurance company, or the first Negro insurance company or any kind to enter the Volunteer State. It was learned from these gentlemen that the plan of the insurance company is to have a West, Middle and East Tennessee office and that the East and West Tennessee agent or man in charge of that division had already been selected, while the matter of Middle Tennessee with Nashville as headquarters was yet unsettled. Both gentlemen brought back specimen industrial and straight life policies with a rate book. They were loud in their compliments of Editor Ben Davis, the logical head of the Odd Fellows of Georgia, upon the erection and completion of such a magnificent structure, a six-story building located at 200 Auburn Avenue, where the life insurance company domiciled and where practically most of the business interests of Atlanta will in time be found.

N. B. P. HOUSE STILL RISING
DREAMS COMING TRUE-
YEARS OF PROSPERITY
Genuis At Head Of Plant--Employment Given To A Host
ONWARD MARCH OF THE NATIONAL BAPTIST PUBLISHING HOUSE.
Dreaming of the greatness of a people or dreaming of the greatness of an individual has perhaps been induged in by countless millions. Overrating institutions, corporations and individuals has been the mistake of every generation. But, in the city of Nashville there is established an institution, religious in its purpose, charitably inclined, and yet business-like to the core, that cannot be put down with the idle dream of a braggart, neither has it been overdrawn by ardent admirers, nor underrated by any of the skeptical critics, many of whom have doubted its existence. Particular reference is made to the National Baptist Publishing House, a religious plant, occupying an imposing site in this city. This institution, that is under the direction of a Board belonging to the Missionary Baptists and operated in the interest of what is known as the National Baptist Convention, has proven to be a stern reality and a large factor in the commercial life of Nashville. Its influence upon the citizenship has been felt and regarded far more than the casual observer is perhaps willing to admit. While the plant really originated in the brain of an ex-slave who is said to have cherished it for nearly a quarter of a century before attempting to carry out his plan, it cannot be denied it is operated on a modern and up-to-date business-like basis. However, unlike most business institutions there is an era of good feeling and sort of family-like affection between employer and employee, each at all times looking after the interest of the other. The absence of organized labor unions or such movements that have caused so much disturbance among the people, is said to be responsible, in a large measure, for the fifteen years of prosperity, success and tranquility of this institution, established by a man whose name is practically a household word throughout the nation, and whose efforts have not been confined to the narrow margin of his own denomination. In Nashville, the Secretary and Manager of the National Baptist Publishing Board, who is also President of the National Baptist Church Supply Company, the National Negro Doll Company, and President of the One Cent Savings Bank, is looked upon as a benefactor in the truest sense. The Baptist Publishing House, as it is known throughout the city, furnishes more constant, regular and remunerative employment to young men and young women of the race than any other two religious plants or business institutions owned by the Negroes of the country. This is done in face of the fact that it has never been the recipient of one dollar through philanthropic efforts. In a recent conversation with the genius the brain of the institution, the one man in whose head the entire plant appears to revolve, who knows it from stem to stem, said that the plant had built itself up without a dollar or a single dime contributed for its maintenance or establishment from any source, and that wherever money had been given in any way, it had been reverted into the missionary channels as he is also secretary of the Home Mission Board of his convention, which Board is operating or prescaping an extensive missionary work on home fields, which includes Penama.
One day this week while a group of visitors were inspecting the Baptist Publishing Plant, a large bell rang, every wheel suddenly stopped, and the employees from the seven buildings began with one accord to look and go in the same direction, towards what is known as their chapel. One member of the party asked what it meant. He was informed that it was "the hour of prayer," and that Dr. Boyd was giving each day his contribution, his obeisance, his reverence and his unstinted devotion to the God of his salvation by setting aside thirty minutes for prayer services, where the employees might mingle and commingle with one another religiously, thus throwing around them a religious atmosphere that can hardly be enjoyed in any other plant now being operated in the country. The work of the Publishing House is such appears to have never been confined to more writing and sending out of the Sunday-school quarterlies, it has developed many features of improved racial as well as denominational ideas. It is looked upon as setting a high standard for the race to which it belongs. It was in the Publishing House that the idea of "Negro Dolls for Negro Children" originated. It was in this same Publishing House that the idea was born in the mind of at least one that Negroes could be converted into skilled mechanics that could make anything for the church from a collection plate to the finest grade of church pews, or from a postcard to

It is said that more mouths are fed through the business forest and the exceptional alertness along the commercial life by the Secretary and Manager of the plant than any two institutions of any one state in the Union operated by the members of the race. Hardly a week passes but that some new improvement is added to the institution. Only last week there was installed a modern Christensen continuous feeder with two Boston stitcher heads that will stitch fifty thousand Sunday-school periodicals per day. It will take five girls to operate the stitcher. It is the first of its kind in the world to be sold to a Negro institution. This will give the Publishing House a wire stitching capacity of eighty thousand periodicals per day. Like their lead in this instance, it calls to mind that they have forged to the front, setting a precedence and opening a way for the Negro printing establishments of the United States to enjoy adven-

tages in modern printing machinery bichero denied them. The Alps appear to have been climbed, as it were, and yet the Rev. R. H. Boyd, or the National Baptist Publishing Board, not resting upon his oars, but using its own statements, he is providing the young Negro, who desires to be provided, with an ample protection against the charge of laziness and idleness by giving him the combination to the door of hope which appears to have been closed against him in many instances in the skilled labor world. The marvelous record that this institution has established the local post office of the city for despatching and receiving mail beggars description. The following record of receipts of letters for the past nine ows may perhaps be interesting to the public:

It is said that the present fiscal year will show an expenditure of nearly twelve thousand dollars in actual postage. Nashville has been blessed beyond measure by having such an institution to set an example of thrift and economy for its young men and women while it is furnishing them employment in every line, such as bookkeepers, stenographers, accountants, clerks, printers, linotype operators, proofreaders, pressmen, book binders, upholsterers, finishers, cabinet makers, in fact, there is hard a skilled profession of any consequence that you will not get an idea of or know something about in passing through the National Baptist Publishing House, located at the corner of Second avenue, North, and Locust street. In the face of this, Rev. Richard Henry Boyd, D. D., LL. D., is perhaps the plainest business man in Nashville, uncremining, extremely courteous, a true type of the common people, to whom he says he belongs, and yet whose heart is responsive to the call that has been made upon him, even to the taking of the lead and the pointing of the way on the darkest night and the most dreary day.
$21,000 GIVEN TO FISK UNIVER SITY.
$20,000 for Endowment and $1,000 for Expenses
Treasurer Fairchild, of Fisk University, received yesterday a letter from Mrs. G. A. Gates, widow of the late President Gates, of the University, containing a pledge for $20,000 to be applied on the endowment fund. The $20,000 is given by a lady who is a personal friend of Mrs. Gates. The principal is payable within two years, but the donor gives her note for the interest at 6 per cent on the $20,000 until the principal shall have been paid. It will be remembered that about two years ago the General Education Board appropriated $60,000 to Fisk University on condition the Board of Trustees of the institution raise enough to make a fund of $300,000. Thus the great task of the University was to secure $240,000. This they are assured will be done within the time yet allowed, which will expire in about five months. Another letter was received containing a check for $1,000 to be applied on current expenses. This is also a gift from a woman. Their names are withheld for the present.

THE STATE GRAND LODGE IN SESION AT MEMPHIS
Wide Her Doors.
Memphis, Tenn., July 1, 1913—The annual session of the State Grand Lodges of the Mosaic Templars of Tennessee and Mississippi convened here at the Green St. Baptist Church this morning. The meeting was called to order by the Grand Master, Mr. Harris of this city. Invocation was pronounced by the Chaplain.
After announcing the purpose of the meeting, the State Grand Master of Araknasas made appropriate remarks. The appointment of committees was carried out in the usual custom. The Mosaic Temple of America, headquarters of Little Rock is one of the strongest organizations in this country; was founded by J. A. Bush and Keets in Little Rock thirty years ago, from that time it has grown until now the membership is near one thousand.
The National Grand Master, Alexander since he has been in charge of the order has put the institution on a firm footing and the accession to the ranks are counted by the thousands each year.
It was announced by the National Grand Master that in September the National organization will be dedicated in Little Rock; a three thousand dollar building that will be known as the Mosaic Templars Headquarters of America.
At this meeting representatives of the Mosaic were together from every quarter and a great celebration will be anticipated.
The session here will continue through Thursday and from every indication it seems that very little if any friction will come about.
DR. P. R. BURRUS
Here is Dr. P. R. Burrus, a successful business man and a useful citizen, Dr. Burrus was Chancellor Commander of Stringer Lodge K. of P. for a number of years. He voluntarily rehabilitated the reins last December and has been a gallant private in the ranks ever since. So great was his popularity with the Knights of Stringer Lodge that they went down into their pockets (not the lodge treasury) and presented him a magnificent gold medal. All of Nashville respects and admires Dr. Burrus as a sterling gentleman and an honest man.
SUES AGE FOR $10,000
New York City, N. Y.—Once more the managers of the two leading Negro papers of the East, the New York Age and the Amsterdam News, will lock horns in a legal conflict which will be settled by the courts, perhaps by the Supreme Court. It is said to have been brought out a yt the publication in the New York Age of June 26th, when it accused in print the Editor of the Amsterdam News, James H. Anderson, of maliciously and brutally assaulting his wife. This Mr. Anderson claims was an error, and further cities that it was viciously and maliciously written. Mr. Anderson claims to be able to contradict the assertions and the written reports by ny not only himself, but an eye witness. It appears that Mr. and Mrs. Anderson once occupied apartments in the building where the Amsterdam News is now published but, that these apartments were changed and the entire place by Mr. Anderson converted into offices. This recent litigation brought by Mr. Anderson bringing suit against the Age, is the second legal tangle engaged in by these two newspapers giants.

Special to the Globe.
Nashville, Tenn., July 1.—The Independent Order of Immaculates conconvened here this morning in their annual session. The meeting was called to order by Grand Master J. A.
Slaton, of Columbia. After the usual ceremonies and the appointment of committees a short recess was taken for dinner.
The Immaculate Order was organized in Nashville by Dr. C. O. Hadley, and rapidly grew until in a short while it became the strongest order in Tennessee, and to-day the Independent Order of Immaculates is one of the foremost organizations of its kind.
The meeting here is largely attended, being as it is in the state where the organization was founded. Tennessee has also led in the Immaculate Fraternity, and President Slaton in his annual address urged on the officers and delegates to put forth new energy in the coming years, to make the Immaculate Order all that its name and tenets stand for
UNIFORM RANK HOLD$ COMPETI
TIVE DRILL AT KNOXVILLE
The current issue of the East Tennessee News has the following:
"Tuesday afternoon a Review of the companies assembled here for the encampment, was held at Brewer's Park, also inspection and competitive drill between the Chattanooga Co. and Knoxville.
Gen. F. C. Henderson; Adj. Hines; Majs. Lee and Beattie, the staff officers of Gen. Henderson, were present to witness same. As those passed before them behind the 8th Eattallion Band playing marital airs they made a pretty picture indeed, their soldiery bearing, beautiful uniforms and rich equipments brought praise and admiration from wives, sweethearts and friends, who were present to witness the many manouvers characteristics of army life. Several hundred were there, mostly feminine, as a uniform always attracts the gentler sex.
After being reviewed by the General and Staff, they were inspected individually by the General as to uniforms and arms, which was very rigid, as the General is a stern disciplinarian, however everyone passed favorably and later were highly complimented by the Staff Officers for their fine deportment and military appearance.
Next was the competitive drill between Knoxville and Chattanooga Knoxville led off with Capt. Alex Falls commanding, and he led his company through quite a number of beautiful and intricate evolutions and when they withdrew from the field they were greeeted with great applause. But the best was 'et to come, for Chattanooga had something up her sleeve, and when Capt. Jenkins brought them out, a full company, and marched them across the parade grounds, everyone present began to sit up and take notice, for they felt that they were then beholding something worth coming miles to see, this, the crack company of Tennessee, manouvered in every way possible for thirty minutes to the great pleasure of all present. The encampment was a great success and here is hoping that next year it will be greater and grander. It is needless to say the Chattanooga boys, "took the bacon home."

WOMAN'S PART IN THE STATE FAIR.
By Mrs. T. G. Sette, Chairman of the Woman's Board.
It should be a source of much pride to all Tennessee that the Woman's Department of the Tennessee State Fair is a pattern to other States conducting fairs. At different times from all over the country have come letters of inquiry concerning the Tennessee Fair's method of gathering and placing the exhibits of woman's work. The sustained interest that has made possible a large and varied collection of beautiful and, at the same

time, practical specimens of woman's talent and industry, has put the Woman's Department of the State Fair in the limelight that falls upon successful State enterprises. Not only should every Tennessee applaud the judgment of these other States in putting forward a Tennessee project as the model of its kind; every man and woman in the State should be a loyal and patriotic promoter of everything tending to the advancement of its interest and growth.
Tennessee's great natural resources are very beautifully and graphically demonstrated through the medium of

women would be struggling to meet the plain, unadorned conditions incident to frugal living.
The wide-awake, intellectual women who are grappling with social questions and through club work are bringing before the people at large certain means of solving problems of a complex age, would have less time for study and for actual work in behalf of the poor and needy were they themselves bound by the iron hand of necessity. But Nature smiled upon Tennessee. Here the sun-kissed hills and wide green valleys, sparkling streams and fertile farm lands. Here are mountains bursting with treasure, and soil capote of producing every variety of agricultural product. It is small wonder then that the Tennessee Fair gets the pace which other fairs follow.
The fact that the Fair is a state institution should in itself be sufficient reason for supporting it and endeavoring in every way possible to promote its interest and growth. Every woman in Tennessee should feel that the Woman's Department is an enterprise in which she has a share, and that whatever she can do to help its successful conduct she should feel bound to undertake, inasmuch as only state-wide loyalty to a State institution can render the latter the perfected plan which, as conceived and so far carried out, should make every Tennessee proud of its State Fair Board of Trustees.
The endeavor of the Woman's Board of the Fair is to make of the Woman's Department an eminently sane and sincerely true demonstration of what co-operation among all the women of the State of Tennessee can produce. While the utmost effort will be put forth to gather and include every woman's interest and skill, yet at the same time it should be borne in mind that it is each individual woman's right and duty to give to the Woman's Department her support. "This is my great Tennessee Fair," every Tennessee woman should say, "and as mine shall work for it because it works for me." For the Fair, with a guarding-ment past question, is the greatest means by which Tennessee women show to the world what Tennessee women can do.
The catalogue and entry blanks for

the Woman's Department exhibits are now ready for distribution and will be mailed on application to Mrs. T. G. Settle, chairman of the Woman's Board, or Mrs. Chas. W. Baker, Secretary.

In these chapters (as told by himself) is the story of a young sleeping car porter who was discontented; that is, he possessed energy—a desire to become more than just "George." To have a part in American progress or to be "a cog in the wheel" was the big idea. "Go West young man and grow up with the country was the final ultimatum."
What followed this advent makes up a story--of unusual interest. A thrilling tale of Homestead development and town building, with a strong human interest and a strange outcome of a love affair. It is truly a story of Conquest.

HONORS FOR BRILLIANT YOUNG WOMAN.
GRAND COURT OF CALANTHE JUDICIOUS COURT
Ann Arbor, Mich, June 24.—Miss Phyllis Wheatley Waters, daughter of Phil Waters, the well-known political leader of Charleston, W. Va., graduated last Thursday from the Ann Arbor High School, after an enviable record covering four years, during which time she made not less than 95 per cent. in any of the branches embraced in her list of studies. The brilliance of Miss Waters' career at this school is enhanced by the fact that in her junior year she was awarded a scholarship merit, the first time in the history of the institution that this honor was won by a colored student.
During her entire course she was a member of her class basket ball and tennis teams, and was this year elected captain of the basket ball team, another distinction conferred for the first time upon a colored student. Miss Waters is affable and accomplished and is deservedly popular with all of her class-mates. Next year she will enlist the University of Michigan, the alma mater of her father, where she will doubtless add new laurels to her already richly-laden brow. Col. Waters, her father, now chief deputy clerk of the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia, was noted as an exceptionally well-equipped athlete while a student at the great Michigan University.
In May, 1910, Boyd Court No. 20 was organized by Sir Kts., N. W. Smith, A. A. Wells, Zimmerman and Ben Anderson. Kt. Wells having been commissioned by Dr. R. F. Foyd G. W. C. Boyd Court was named for the late Dr. R. F. Boyd. He always felt a pride in this Court and when she was organized, he donated her a set of officers' books. Mrs. R. J. Brabson was the first W. C. In July she sent to the first annual session of the Grand Court Mrs. Cora E. E. Burke as representative. She so ably represented that she was appointed G. W. E. at this meeting.
Boyd Court has grown both numerically and financially always standing at the head as the court having the largest bank account in the state. She has had some very noble officers and members, among whom may be mentioned Mesdames Nannie Johnson, the present W. C., who has done much for the success of the Order in the city. M. E. Hamilton, Gussie Smith, C. E. Burke, Jennie Broyles, R. J. Brabson, Eliza McMillan and others too numerous to mention.
During her nine years of existence she has been visited only four times by the grim reaper death. Her membership now stands at 55.
In 1905 Callaway's Court No. 29 organized and set up by Kt. Callaway. This Court has prospered wondrelly yet when we view the noble-hearted women comprising this court nothing short of success would be expected. She has not always had smooth sailing for sometimes the dark clouds of disappointment hovered near but soon these would disappear. Mrs. Mary J. Barnes has been the wise counsellor of this Court and has led her successfully during these years. She has guarded her treasury as this Court also boasts of a nice bank account. Among her noble and sacrificing women may be mentioned Mesdames M. J. Barnes, Rosetta Dumas, Hattle Brow, Dora Lewis and others which space will not permit me to mention.
The third Court to be organized in Knoxville was Mt. Home No. 52 by Mrs. C. E. Eurke. This Court has been guided successfully by Mrs. Cora Goodner. Mt. Home Court has often been visited by the grim reaper death thus causing her to be heavily indebted, so much so that many of the members were discouraged and freely talked of throw-up. But Mrs. Cora Goodner the leader of this Court has encouraged and held on with that tenacity "assures success. Now, this Court is on foot, doing well. Long may she continue to prosper.
Next to be organized was Bridge City No. 115 by Kt. N. N. Reynolds. This Court has had excellent sailing. She has been guided by such women as Desmames Ida Teddion, Polly Steptoe, Bettie Howard, Wilson, Bessie Trent and others.
Mechanicville Court No. 126 ranks as one of the best small Courts in the state. We are indeed proud of this Court. It was organized in 1909 by Mrs. Nannie Johnson and Gussie Smith. Mrs. Susan White and Msr. M. . Floyd are the leaders of this Court. They meet promptly on time, discuss on time and if you wish to be present in one of their meetings you must be on time.
The Courts as a whole of Knoxville are in excellent condition. They are working in Harmony and Love. There is ni strife nor dissention. We love our neighbors as ourselves. We feel that what is one's failure it is alls. What is one's success is alls. We mourn at our failures and rejoice at our success.
I could not close this bit of history without mentioning the "Past Counsellor's Council" which was organized in February last by Kt. N. N. Reynolds. This council was organized for the further development of harmony and sameness in our ranks. This council meets monthly and it is a pleasure to be in the meeting where the officers of all the courts come together and discuss plans for the betterment of all courts concerned. May this organization long live and prosper for it has been of untold benefit to the courts in general.
source in a good wife, or a good mother or good daughter, and I have found it. The making of true character in done in the home. It is the mother who presses the seal on the wax and makes the impression of a strong religious belief, and enables us to rise to the grandeur of our being. There is a great demand for intelligent, Christian characters. Who must make them but our mothers? The Bible says a great deal about man and a very little about woman, but in every chapter, sometimes in every page, it speaks of angels. In one place, it says that God made man but little lower than the angels. Women ar the angels; they are God's angels, but for these angels the world would be confessedly confounded. My love and devotion for our women is stronger than ever because of my association with you in this work.
Go ye into all the world and preach my gospel, are the words of the master that should appease to the members of this Order more than to any other people. This gospel, so potent in its influences and elevating in its effect, is not a gospel of words, of songs of praise. It is a gospel of brains and of the arms; a gospel of thought and of action; a gospel of charity, integrity, industry and economy. A gospel whose pulpit is the lodge room and the fireside and whose expounders are the honest hearts and willing hands that "do unto others as they would be done by." It is a gospel that exemplifies the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man.
Then brothers and sisters, renew the fight for the amelioration of our race. From every home and fireside comes up the cry, "Fight on, fight on. Above your heads through the rifted clouds is heard the same voice. Let us heed it. The hope and glory of the race is in us and those who follow. Let us be happy, hopeful, buoyant, kind, considerate, thoughtful, broad-minded, liberal, sincere, candid, faithful in every detail. Live exemplary lives and create an influence for good to those around you and those who are to come after you.
I hope each and every one of you have come here imbued with the spirit of Fidelity. This session of our Calanthe is of the utmost importance to us and demands wise, conservative and patriotic action upon the part of every delegate. I want you to prove yourselves worthy and faithful to every trust, and attend strictly to the business which caused you to come from every nook and corner of this State as representatives of your Courts. Give your best thought and judgment on the problems of the Order. While we are particularly interested in the care and protection of the sick, helpless, needy, widows and orphans, I wish you to remember that ours is a great business concern as well. We guard well and properly manage the thousands of dollars that are entrusted to our care and keeping. The eyes of the world are upon us. The all seeing eye of God is upon us. Ours is a tremendous responsibility. We cannot shun it. The officers of this Court have a public and fraternal trust of honor. We are the pioneers that are blazing the way for the coming generations. If we are honest and faithful in our work here, we will give tone and credit, not only to our Order, but to the entire race.
STATE OF THE ORDER.
Our financial department if healthy both in the endowment and in the Grand Court departments. The reports of the officers who handle these departments will demonstrate that we are still upon a safe basis. Peace reigns supreme amongst us and I am glad to report to you that our numerical strength has grown to 150 Courts. This should be encouraging and gratifying to every member of the Order.
We are sending sunshine and golden showers of peace and good will, not only throughout the length and breadth of our jurisdiction, but to the whole race and to this nation. You know the depths from which we came, and I am certain that you are able to appreciate the heights to to which we have climbed. We are progressing with giant strides towards the top, and I am calling upon every one of you to renew your strength and powers for the contest that is before us. We must not rest one moment if we are to achieve undisputed, unchallenged success. We must push onward in the work of organizing the adult department and bringing to perfection the juvenile department. We have all put our hands to the plow. Now, let us continue in well doing. I have no sympathy for those, who having put their hands to the plow, turn back and give up the work; but honor, those who amidst all drawbacks, discouragements and hindrances, keep on the even ten of their way. Our order will reach a high state of perfection when the subordinant officers shall send in promptly all the semi-annual and quarterly endowment reports.
I must urge that this important part of their duties be promptly and faithfully performed. All fraternal insurance orders are governed by the State laws which require these assessments to be paid in advance. You owe it to yourself and to each member of the Court to see that these reports reach the Grand Officers according to law. Should a member die whose money has not been forwarded, the order would be placed in a very undesirable position. I again beg the Worthy Counsellors and the Worthy Recorder of deeds to see to it that every member pays and that the reports are sent in on time. I would advise that you sign up checks and reports at the last meeting in the quarter and send (Continued on page 15.)

Mr. Childress, an old member of the Odd Fellows, made a pela for aid and a considerable sum was contributed to his needs.
The hall was beautifully decorated and the hum of the electric fans added much to the comfort of the people. Mr. D. A. Hart, editor of the Nashville Globe, was introduced and made a short talk. The routine business of the evening was attended to and the meeting adjourned.

It is imperative upon the deputies and Worthy Counsellors to enforce this law, and I hope it will be done to the letter. I want the Worthy Counsellors and the Deputies to see to it. They are responsible for the enforcement of the law.
Proclamations.
At the close of our last session I sent out my usual proclamation giving the officers, and announcing the important changes made in our laws. I have from time to time sent out proclamations under our laws and the supreme laws, and I am glad to report that most of our Courts and officers have shown the proper respect for and given due heed to these edicts. A proclamation should be read at each meeting of your Courts and Juveniles, until all the members are thoroughly informed as to their contents.
Bonds of Subordinate Officers.
At our last session, I recommend that every member of a subordinate Court who handles money should give bond. I again emphasize the importance of a rigid enforcement of

this law. It will give you character and standing amongst the best people and bring into your Courts the most desirable and influential citizens. Then, it is nothing but right to throw the proper amount of protection around your money. Of course, each Court is required to keep its money in some bank. If there is a Negro bank in your city or town, put your money in it. If we do not put confidence in them, who is going to do it?
The Worthy Counsellor, Receiver of Accounts and Receiver of Deposits are the banking committee of a Court, and should put into the bank all the money and check out, over their signatures when the Court shall by vote, order it.
They sweetly pass from earth's abode To realms of endless day.
Recommendations.
I want to recommend the same recommendations which I made to you last year. First, that the Grand Court and the Grand Lodge of this state erect a permanent home—a Pythian Temple for the officers and fraternal development.
Second, that a committee of three from each Court, in a city of more than one Court, be appointed to visit each Court, and confer with similar committees on the good of the Order.
Third, that a Calanhe Aid be formed with which shall be from the union of all the Courts of each city, said aid shall be officered, organized on the first meeting in December and June, so that the Courts shall know the full and true conditions of their finances before the nomination of officers for an additional term.
Eighth: I recommend that we have a Calanthian paper, the official organ of this Order in the state to be under the direction and care of the Grand Worthy Counsellor.
Ninth: I especially recommend that the laws governing age and physical condition of the candidate for membership be more strictly enforced in the Courts. The law limits the age of the applicant to fifty years. You have no right to take in any person over this age. You violate your obligation and do great harm to the Order when
Juvenile Department
I again call your attention to this nursery of this Order and beg of you to use your powers and influence to save and train up the children of our race that they may be strong and able to combat with the great opposition against us. The boys and girls trained in the juvenile department will be more competent and fitted to receive and understand the mysteries of the higher departments of our Order, than those who have never had such training. I again urge upon every Court to have at least one juvenile under it and all the members of the Court to see to it that every child over which they have control or influence shall be brought into the Court and trained in Pythianism for leadership in our race.
Correspondence.
It is largely through correspondence that I keep in touch with the officials and individuals of our Grand Jurisdiction. I have made it a rule to answer every letter that comes to our desk. So, you see what a tremendous task I have before me. Most of our brethren and sisters know of this rule, and they write wise and otherwise to me, all of which I must give due cognizance. I thank you very much for allowing me a stenographer, although the fee be not sufficient to compensate such an individual. With this tremendous task of caring for our Order that is doing so much for the good of the race and the nation, the Grand Worthy Counsellor is in need of clerical help. I know you will extend it.
Necrology—In Memoriam.
Since last we met, the reaper has cut down many of our choicest flowers. A great many of our brothers and sisters have been called from time to reward. We miss them. We sorrow for them, but we bow in humble submission to our Heavenly Father who doeth all things well.
'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord,
And with the weary rest,
Theirs shall be a joyous reward,
Blest fruits of righteousness.
Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord
Free from prison clay

I want to recommend the 'same
recommendations which I made to
you last year. First, that the Grand
Court and the Grand Lodge of this
state erect a permanent home—a

Second, that a committee of three
from each Court, in a city of more
than one Court, be appointed to visit
each Court, and confer with similar
committees on the good of the Order.
Third, that which shall be from the union of all the Courts of each city, said aid shall be officered, organized to raise a fund to aid the needy of our Order, and extend the hand of charity wherever the cause demands. Fourth. That each Court keep a black book, in which shall be kept a list of all the rejected candidates, suspensed and expelled members;

so as to prevent them from imposing
upon the Courts in the same city or
anywhere else.
Fifth: I recommend that each and
every Court and Juvenile shall put
their money in banks through the
banking committee, and in the name
of the Court and Juveniles, and to be
drawn by the signatures only of the
three officers organized by law.
Sixth: Whereas, we have banks
owned and operated by our people,
therefore, I recommend that the Order,
when possible, place its funds in a
good safe, Nero bank
Seventh: That an auditing committee or an auditor be appointed by the Worthy Counselor of each Court semi-annually, on the last meeting of November and May who shall examine the books and account of the R. A., R. of D., of the Court and secretary and treasurer of the juveniles.
All books and papers shall be immediately turned over to this committee. The committees shall report
each night with music by first-class orchestra and noted singers

on the first meeting in December and June, so that the Courts shall know the full and true conditions of their finances before the nomination of officers for an additional term. Eighth: I recommend that we have a Calanthian paper, the official organ of this Order in the state to be under the direction and care of the Grand Worthy Counsellor.
Ninth. I especially recommend that the laws governing age and physical condition of the candidate for membership be more strictly enforced in the Courts. The law limits the age of the applicant to fifty years. You have no right to take in any person over this age. You violate your obligation and do great harm to the Order when you do it. When you have an exceptional case of over age, your Court can apply to the Grand Worthy Counsellor for a special dispensation for that special case. Don't override the law and violate your obligations. Our death rate has been enormous this year. The great majority of those who died are those who have recently joined the Order. Some are wrong with their physical condition when they joined. The examining physicians are not careful enough. The membership is not careful enough in its selection of candidates. Every candidate should be healthy and of the proper age. Too many die of consumption. Too many die of operations.
Tenth: I recommend that a special tax of 10c upon each member of the Courts; 5 cents to be paid before the 31st day of December of this year and forwarded to the Grand Register of Deeds on or before the tenth of January, 1913; paid on or before the 3st day of May, 1913 and forwarded said money to be used in aiding our brethren to pay the expenses of the law suit now waged against them and to be used as a charity fund for disasters and calamities to our Order and membership.
I have not the language to express the esteem and sincere love which I have for every officer, who has been associated with me in the past year in this great work of lifting the race. No better men and women live than these. The men are high minded, clean souled. Christian gentleman. All have worked together in fidelity, harmony and love. They have all encouraged and strengthened by their zealous earnest and entirely unselfless efforts or the good of this Order. I recommend them to you. I have done my best for you. I have made some mistakes. Who has not? It is human to err; divine to forgive. I ask that you will remember the good done in building this great Order and throw the mantle of charity over my shortcomings. Forgive as you would be forgiven. I shall always remember you with grateful and loving feelings. I shall always feel highly honored in serving you and thankful to our Heavenly Father for strength and fitness to service. God bless you. You're in F. H. and I.

Live News of Live Newspaper Workers—Compiled under Direction of the National Negro Press Association
President R. W. Thompson, by virtue of authority conferred by the constitution, has dismissed Webster L. Porter from the office of assistant recording secretary and as a member of the executive committee of the National Negro Press Association. He is charged with "conduct prejudicial to the welfare of the Association," publishing in his paper, the East Tennessee News at Knoxville, editorials and other matter reflecting upon the administration, to which he should have been a loyal factor. The prompt and vigorous action of President Thompson in defending the interest of the organization is heartily endorsed by the officers who constitute his cabinet of advisers. This is the first instance of the kind the Association has experience since its formation George W. Harris, editor of the Amsterdam News, New York City has been named as Mr. Porter's successor as assistant recording secretary. The Tennessee vacancy on the executive committee has not yet been filled."
The program for the National Convention of the Press Association at Philadelphia August 18 and 19 is being mapped out. The officers are hopeful that all persons invited to take part will reply promptly to the invitations that are now going out.
Nick Chiles, the doughty editor of the Topeka Plaindealer, was in Enid, Oklahoma, a few days ago as a witness for the government in the United States District Court, prosecuting a gang of alleged grafters for using the mails with intent to defraud.

A new book has appeared entitled "The Conquest." It gives in a vivid and interesting way the experiences of a pioneer Negro, who started out in life as a Pullman porter. How he solved many race problems by the application of everyday common-sense will aid a host of colored people who find it difficult to comprehend the peculiarities of this American civilization.
The Jackson (Miss.) Daily News of recent date details the progress made by Lawrence C. Jones, a young colored man who has succeeded in building up in the rural districts of Mississippi an institution for the industrial and agricultural training of colored boys and girls, known as the Piney Woods Country Life School. The News describes Mr. Jones' work neer in constructive endeavor and with Booker T. Washington as a plos "marvelous," and compares him books forward to a career for its neighbor scarcely less illusorious than that enjoyed by the Wizard of Tuskegee. Mr. Jones is an experienced newspaper man and took an active part in the proceedings of the Press Association at Chicago last August. He is one of Mississippi's members of the executive committee
Nevertheless and notwithstanding, it is the opinion of many sagacious newspaper men that a first-class race journal could be made a success in Washington, if carried on by the right man. It si regarded as ridiculous for anybody to assume that the 100,000 Negroes of the nation's capital, earning millions of dollars annually, cannot or will not support more than one paper.

Franklin F. Johnson, of the Baltimore Afro-American Ledger, is one of the race's most alert and progressive news-gatherers, and his reports are in demand by the white dailies of the Monumental City. Editor J. H. Murphy considers him an indispensable factor on the Afro-American Ledger.
The local committee at Philadelphia expect to have the Press Convention addressed by Dr. Talcott Williams and John Wanamaker in August, as well as by Dr. Booker T. Washington, Eishops Walters, Tanner, Coppin, Caldwell, Blackwell, Clinton and other celebrities of national proportions.
The success of the Baptist Sunday School Convention at Muskogee, Oklahoma, was a big feather in the cap of Henry Allen Boyd, the Association's energetic corresponding
secretary. Mr. Boyd does not know how to spell "failure." * * *
N. B. Dodson, chairman of the executive committee of the N. N. P. A. was unanimously re-elected president of the New England Baptist Sunday School Association at the annual convention of the organization in Washing last week. Mr. Dodson's address on the closing night of the convention was highly praised by all who heard it. While in Washington Mr. Dodson conferred at length with President Thompson, who extended the courtesies of his home during his stay.
An effort is being made by prominent members of the order to develop the Odd Fellows' Journal into a general newspaper, as well as to give service as the official spokesman of the G. U. O. of O. F. The matter will probably be threshed out at the coming meeting of the Sub-Committee of Management in Philadelphia.

PARTY FROM STATE NORMAL GOING TO MAMMOTH CAVE.
Owed by President Hale.
The first anniversary of the State Normal was celebrated in the Chapel, on Thursday, June 19th. Many students and teachers were present who assisted at the opening a year ago, and told interesting and humorous incidents of the occasion. The present condition was compared with that of last year and many laughable happenings were recalled. The growth and development were commented upon and many good wishes and "happy returns of the day" were received.
Last Saturday a party of student teachers, accompanied by some of the members of the faculty, went to the Hermitage in a pleasure-wagon. They spent a delightful and profitable day and returned home about ten o'clock full of the intesesting things they had seen and determined that their pupils of next year should share them as their knowledge of Tennessee's history was greatly increased.
For its next outing the party intends to spend the week-end at Mammoth Cave, securing a special car for the trip. Besides these frequent excursions to places of historical and educational interest, President Hale has planned many other things to increase the enjoyment and comfort of the student-teachers, and they are showing their appreciation of his efforts by flocking to the school in large numbers which are increasing weekly. He has just returned from a trip to Springfield and one to Dickson, where he addressed large audiences in the interest of the school. These trips resulted in many applications for admittance to the school next fall.
Although State Normal is the young-
est of all state schools for the training of teachers of the higher type, she is rapidly coming to the front owing to the efforts of the faculty, the co-operation and the enthusiasm of the student body and friends.
MR. AND MRS. THOMAS EWING CELEBRATE THE IORI SILVER ANNIVERSARY.
"Celestial," the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Ewing, was the scene of a beautifully arranged silver anniversary Friday evening, June 20, from 8 till 1 o'clock. They were assisted in receiving by their daughter, Miss Carrie Ewing. The living-room was beautifully decorated with large stands of palms and ferns. The dining-room table held for its central ornament a large battenburg centerpiece with a cut glass vase filled with maidenhair ferns and pink and white carnations, over which hung a large white wedding bell suspended by a white ribbon.
Mrs. Ewing was becoming attired in a silver gray silk poplin trimmed with lace and pearls; she wore gray silk gloves to match and used the same fan Friday night that she used the night of her wedding twenty-five years ago. Mr. Ewing was dressed conventionally. A two-course menu was served, pink and white being the predominating color tones. A large number of handsome presents were received, including a neat sum of money. The guests, on taking their leave, extended many congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Ewing and wished them to live happily on to celebrate their golden anniversary. Miss Annie Mai Price, their niece, dispensed frappe upon the arrival of the guests.

CLARKSVILLE NOTES.
Those who failed to hear the lecture of ex-congressman Geo. W. Murray at St. Peter A. M. E. Church missed one of the greatest opportunities of a lifetime. The audience was delighted beyond expression and at once tried to negotiate for a return engagement, but unfortunately Mr. Murray's time was all engaged. The Rev. E. M. Seymour, formerly pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church preached to that congregation last Sunday to the great delight of his host of friends. Rev. Seymour looks fine and is in the pink of health. He has unstinted praises for his people at Ripley. A company of Boy Scouts numbering about half a hundred, has been organized

merit was rendered at St. Peter A. M. E. Church under the direction of Mrs. Nina Firse, musica director of the choir. The splendid program closed with the cantata of the Ten Vigils. This was rendered in a most pathetic manner while the audience was almost breathless with interest. Mrs. Firse has had the choir only a year and most of the members are entirely new in the work, but she has brought them up to such proficiency that her choir is easily the best musical organization to be found in any of our churches. The decorators are still working on the interior of St. Peter, both the auditorium and basement and expect to have it completed by next Sunday.

MRS. GRACE WILSON CARTER,
THE GREAT SUFFRAGETTE.
Delivers Strong Address on Woman
Suffrage.
At Mt. Zion Baptist Monday
night and at the First Baptist Church
East Nashville, Tuesday night, Mrs.
Grace Wilson Carter delivered a
strong address, subject, "Why the
Women of the United States Should
Have the Privilege of the Ballot."
In the course of her remarks she
said:
"Friends, it is indeed a great plea-
sure to be here. Words are inexpress-
able when I endeavor to tell you how
happy I am. I have been around a
great deal sightseeing, since I
have been in your most beautiful
city, and I am sure it will not
require a great deal of talking on my
part to convince you that women of
the United States should have the
privilege of the ballot, especially
where there are so many monuments
of intelligence and progressiveness.
"First, this is a country of democracy, a government for the people, by the people, and of the people; if this be a fact, the women are people, since the word people is not sexual. Then why should we not be allowed the privilege of voting? I meet men who so frequently say that the place for the woman is in the home. I say the place for the woman and man when not out on business or pleasure, is in the home. But the day that is set aside for the election of the officers of the country, neither man nor woman should be at home all day, but should go to their respective precincts and express their written opinion, whether they think the men who are running for office are religiously.

intellectually or morally fit to hold said positions. There is not a man who dares deny that woman is intellectually his equal and morally his superior. Then if woman be man's superior morally, why not let her go into politics, clean up and elevate the low basis upon which it stands?
There is not a man in this city who does not know how corrupt politics is and that is why they object to their wives, daughters and sisters voting. Why should the politics of this country be of such a nature that a woman would be called immoral should she be seen going to the polls to vote on election day? To the women or my race I can only say if they do not wake up, the white women of this country will get the right of suffrage and the colored women will be disfranchised. For the sake of the coming generations let us wake up, stop dosing, be progressives and not stand back for the sake of false moral pride.
In the State of Ohio where we were trying so hard to get the privilege of the ballot a saloon *keeper* came to me and said, "If you women should get the privilege of the ballot, you would put all the saloons out of business." I asked what good were the saloons to humanity in general. They break the hearts of many a poor wife and mother. How many women wait on Saturday night until early dawn of Sunday morning with barely food, enough for wife and babies, for the father to come home and bring his week's earnings. Sometimes he comes home just drunk enough to beat that patient, devoted, self-sacrificing and loving wife and mother, should she ask for money to buy something to eat for the little ones. Sometimes he does not come at all. She learns later that he is in jail. He has promised her again and again that he would stop drinking, but, friends, perhaps he has not had the proper home training, and neither has he will power enough to resist the temptation; then it is our duty as Christians to see that the temptation is removed, if not for his sake, then for the sake of coming generations. Men have refused to wipe the saloon out because of the high taxes they pay; it also gives them the finan-

cital assistance they need to carry on this slow standard of politics. They say that it is impossible to carry the country on without saloons. I say that all things are possible with God. When God called all the beasts of the field, reptiles of the ground and birds of the air and arranged them before Adam. He told Adam to select from them a helpmeet. Adam was unable to find one among them. God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam and while he slept he took the best rib and made woman. When Adam awoke he saw this helpmeet God had given him, and called her woman. I am sure that since men have been unable to raise the moral standard of this country to what it should be that they should allow the one being that God created for the only purpose of helping man, to do this.
this gentleman was that we love all too well to let you get in to over us and perhaps go to jail account. The gentlemen seem forget that we love them as men they do us and sometimes more. Gentlemen of Nashville, I no, should the women in your ask for the right of suffrage you will grant it. I am going optimistic about it, because on do anything for those they love I know that the gallant gentlemen this most beautiful city love women, and love controls all to even the privilege of the ballot.

Because woman wants to vote, or rather if she should vote, it will not take any of the sweetness from her character, but rather her influence would be such as to impart this sweetness of character to the man. I myself, personally, want the women of the United States to have the privilege o f the ballot, because it will give to our race more intelligent voters.
Should you ever visit Boston and go on the Commons you will see a wonderful statue of Washington on a horse. The horse upon which Washington is sitting has no tongue. When this wonderful statue was unvaulted the man who carved this masterpiece of art was known to have said, "My God, I have made a horse without a tongue." The next day a man was found floating down the river. When this man was brought to shore he was found to be the man who made the statue of Washington, or rather the horse without a tongue. The black politicians of this country are just like this horse, a statue without a tongue; they need the black women to supply the tongue. White men and Negro women of this country are privileged characters. Negro men and white women are slaves.
Should the men bring home the money they make or should they give the proper support, the mothers could stay home and train their children to be good, honest citizens, but instead they always see some other man's wife who looks better to them than

their own. I say that every man has as much right to train the children to be good men and women as the woman has. In the ages past the father said, "Come and let us go to church;" to-day they say, "You go on to church; I'm too tired." Of curse they are feeling the effects of the day after the night before. I say that example is greater than precept. The father should teach by example, the mother should teach by both example and precept.
Friends, when a man is disheartened, when everything goes wrong, his heart is sad and his soul is weary, it is then that he turns to his mother, wife and sister for consolation and encouragement. No true, devoted mother or loving wife ever has or ever will refuse to console him. It is a part of the duty God has given womankind. In the past we have been sharing a part of your responsibilities, we now ask that we may have the privilege of sharing them all with you, that your joys may be ours, that your sorrows and disappointments in public life may be ours. You would not love us less and we would love you but the more. Remember love and not force must rule the world if for no other reason than this, that God is love. Love controls this magnificent republic of ours. It is for the love of his wife and children that a man works 365 days a year. It is the working men of this country that keep it going.
Some man said to me during our recent campaign, should a man insult his wife he would not want her to defend herself but come and tell him so that he might avenge her. He said he loved her too well to let her defend herself. My answer to

MY IMPRESSION OF THE LITERATURE AND DISPLAY OF THE PUBLISHING BOARD
Rv W. E. Tinker. Birmingham, Ala.
Dustin. Conductor.
Of course you are not just like our brother in the lesson, because Joseph did not expose his brother before the public. Now, brethren, this is a great privilege that I now enjoy. It is true enough I do not look to be a very old man. I am not. I want to say, however, that I have been superintendent of the Sixth Avenue Baptist Sunday-school in Birmingham, Ala., a church with a membership of one thousand, for twenty-one years. In the beginning of my Christian career I had a wife that believed in God and she was a strong member of God's family and therefore she strengthened me in the work. After I had begun the work I believed that I ought to ask God's benediction upon me as a laborer and a servant of His, and therefore was strengthened to the extent that they have never been able to release me from the work. I am not an expert as has been said, but a Christian if nothing else. I want to say just a word and if I never reach the literature which you spoke of, it is because I will not have the time to do so. I want to bring out one or two thoughts in this lesson that I gained and perhaps it is best that I give them to you because I may never come to you again in this life. One of the thoughts is, Joseph said unto his brethren, "Draw near unto me" If we want to do real work we must get together. When God wanted to reveal himself unto Moses in the burning bush, He said, "Draw near." We never will have God to reveal himself to us if we stay star off as Peter did Christ. We must get together. When Isaac wanted to reveal himself, or give a blessing to his son, as he thought, Esau, he said, Come near my son." That is the way to get God's blessings, draw

near. If we want to do a great work from the literature that is published by this Publishing Board, we, with the men who write the literature, must draw near unto God. We must get near Him. I heard some one say in the meeting that we can not preach the gospel if we be drunkards. Neither can we write inspiring literature unless we draw near unto God. God will revel himself to man if he will draw near unto Him.
I want to say I did not know what this great Publishing Board was doing for the Negro race until I drew near unto them. I came from the state of Alabama just to see what the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress was doing for the Negro. I visited the World's Sunday-School Convention in Washington in 1910, and I declare, whether you believe it or not, that the spirit of God was in the meeting from the beginning to the end. There were white people there. There is one thing we cannot forget. It is said, "You cannot see my face in peace except you bring your brother with you." We can talk Negro literature, we can talk white literature, but, my friend we ought to accept God from any one who brings him to us.
But, our theme is, My Impression of the Literature and Display of the Publishing Board. My impression of the literature and display of literature of the Publishing Board is this: I am impressed with it now as I never was before. I spend in our Sunday-school every quarter from $22.00 to $25 or literature. That is why I ask you should remember Joseph and not expose me. I have not used this literature for several years, but by coming to you I have decided that you shall have my money. I have been so impressed that I am now ready to invest in the National Baptist Publishing Board. Another thing: love settles matters and difficulties, not in public but in privacy. My friends, if you want to gain a brother, settle difference with him and him alone. I want to advance this thought for one reason, we so often drive our brethren from us by exposing them before the public. Joseph was a man that could have exposed his brethren before that house of people, before his Lord, but he did not. And it was love that prompted him not to do so. So my brethren, I come to you this morning as a brother. I come to you as one man, and Prof. Hudson knew I did not use this literature. That is way he wanted me to talk on it. But if he did not want to speak on my convictions, I would have refused, but, my brethren, you have won the Sixth Avenue Baptist Sunday-School because of the great display of literature you have made in this Congress. I say in conclusion: I am very grateful to this Congress and especially to my friend, Prof. Hudson, for letting me expose myself rather than himself. I am very thankful for the help coming to me from the Sunday-School Congress. My last words to you are to remember that if you want to teach God's Word, you must first be trained to do so. You must draw near unto God if you want to do good work.
METROPOLITAN BAY
REV JAMES BERRY
CO
PAPER READ BY MRS. RUTH COBB AT THE RALLY AND THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF THE PASTOR AND THE TWENTY-SEVENTH OF THE METROPOLITAN BAPTIST CHURCH.
Columbus, Ga., June 15, 1913.—Amount raised, $1,008.85. The following ladies reported one hundred dollars or more: Mesdames Arle Mule, E. M. Harvey, B. L. Wright, Cattle Murray, Annie Jenkins. Those reporting $75 and not less than $35: Mesdames Lula Davis, Teresa Williams, Mary Davis and Emma Harris.
A RETROSPECIVE AND STATISTICAL VIEW OF THE PASTOR'S ADMINISTRATION.
"The darkest hour of the night is just before dawn." In the year of our Lord 1910, when everything looked dark, and there appeared to be only a faint hope, as the Metropolitan Church needed a leader who was willing to roll up his sleeves and say follow me, if you want your church completed, the members soon came together and called Rev. J. B. Miller, D. D., to come to their rescue and take charge of the church. He willingly accepted, and on May 12, 1910, took charge of what then seemed to be a hard problem. On his arrival he found an incomplete brick structure with no plastering, no ceiling overhead, no front or vestibule, no basement, membership scattered and the church under a mortgage. In August, three months after, Dr. Miller took charge of the church, he pulled off a big rally with
---
the assistance of his faithful members and friends, and 5503.44 was raised which amount paid off the mortgage in full. This rally was only a foretaste of the mighty work which this man of God was destined to do. The people of the town began to look on Dr. Miller with wonder and admutation and it was not long before he had gained a warm place in their hearts and now he counts his friends by the score.
The time has come when ability alone will count. The Angto-Saxon minister through these long years has brought himself to the world's leadership as a result of his courage and strong determination, and the same forces that brought him to his position will also bring the American Negro minister to success and achievements. The progress of the Negro minister has been remarkable during the last fifty years. In every line of human endeavor the Negro minister has made headway, and by education, thrift and ability he will accomplish greater things in the years to come. The law of supply and demand regulates the market, whether In trade, brains or character, and he who is best prepared will occupy the commanding place among his fellowmen. Dr. Miller already occupies this position as so many of his colleagues have voluntarily informed us. That his service is in demand has also been fully demonstrated by letters and other inducements to serve in different fields. "He who serves best serves well." Now let's get an idea of what this minister has done. As we have said before, Aug. 28, 1910, he conducted a rally and raised $503.14. In October, 1911, he contracted to have the interior finished at a cost of $2,500. Bought carpets, rugs, etc. at a cost of $201.50. Put In electric light wiring and fixatures at a cost of
out in vestibule and front at a cost of $5,500; completed the basement at a cost of $700; tited up office with furniture, etc., at a cost of $175; pulpit suit and chairs, $200; bell, $150, making a grand total of $8,911.25.
This amount does not include moneyes paid out for the pastor's salary, clerk, electric lights, sexton, organist, coal and other incidental expenses. The amount collected from all sources in 1910 was $2,950; in 1911 was $3,600; in 1912 and 1913, $4,100, making a total of $10,650 during the three years administration of the present pastor. The amount in treasure to date is $457.04. During these two years administration of the 24 mineral sermons, married 25 couches, ridden by baptism and otherwise over 275 members to the church.
Can't you readily see why all eyes are turned towards Metropolitan? The church that is all its name signifies, the church that all Columbus is proud of, the only colored church in the city that carries a $10,000 insurance policy, the church that is worthy of emulation, the church that stands foremost in several instances, the church that ranks first with modern equipments. And now to the pastor. We know your road has been an up-hill one, strewn with thorns and thistles. We

know that many unpleasant things have confronted you in this great undertaking, but for all that remember that when you are right you can afford to keep your temper, and when you are wrong you cannot afford to lose it. Don't be discouraged because every one does not encourage and compliment you for what you have done, and are doing now, because the history of all triumph has been one of determination, steady and persistent effort; and do not forget those who have stood by you in all triubulations. We congratulate you for the right you have made, for your victory is not a personal one, but one for the church you represent and for right. We congratulate the church because your calling spells hope; your calling holds out encouragement to men of honor, to real manhood and to those who would stand for principle rather than anything else. May God bless you and crown your work with success and may you live long and continue to serve your people well.
A number of us here tonight never dreamed that we would live to see this church completed. Not because we thought our title was short, but since we found that so much money would be involved in the completion, we thought it would require several years to do the work.
Those of you who have stood the test need to be praised, and as you enter into another ministerial year, bury your hatchet and forget all unpleasantness of the past. If your pastor should go a little contrary to

EIGHT YEARS AS A PASTOR.
Eighth Anniversary of Rev. C. A. Bel
Celebrated with Fitting Services.
Special to the Globe
Chattanooga, Tenn., July 1.—The eighth anniversary of the pastorate of Rev. Charles Augustus bell, A. M., Ph. D., pastor of the First Baptist Church, East Eighth street, which was celebrated Sunday, June 15th, marked a memorable event in the history of the church. It was a gala religious function and a day of great rejoicing among the large membership and host of friends of the church, who gathered in large numbers at each service during the day to witness the occasion and to share in the celebration.
Eight years ago Rev. Bell, then pastor of the Rogers Memorial Baptist Church, Knoxville, Tenn., was called to the pastorate of the First Baptist Church of this city. Accepting the call, he came here, and after assuming the pastorate, he surveyed his territory and went about his duty. The officers and members, realizing their fortune in selecting and securing a leader who was distinguished for his ministerial ability, pastoral bualities, Christian dignity and general philanthropic spirit, gathered about him with united forces and assured him of their determination to stand by him as their general in the administration of the affairs of the First Baptist Church for the advancement of the causes of Christ and the general uplift and betterment of mankind. With a united pastor and people, every effort, put forth for the spiritual or financial advancement of the church was crowded with success. The religious status and standard were raised, and through the wise financeering of the pastor and herculean efforts on the part of the united membership, the indebtedness of the church was liquidated, and the pastor celebrates his eighth anniversary as pastor of one of the largest church edifices of the race in the state, with all standing indebtedness canceled and funds in hand.

church can be attributed to the Chris than influence, exemplary life and effective gospel preaching and teaching of the pastor, as well as its financial record, to his efficient leadership. The services were interesting throughout. Beginning in the Sunday-school at 9 o'clock a. m., an interesting program consisting of singing, recitations and the reading of two very excellent papers telling of the pastor's work as a valuable teacher and helper in the Sunday-school, by Mrs. W. A. Thompson and Miss Lena G. Durroh. Dr. Bell preached a masterful sermon at the 11 o'clock service from the text, "Who hath despised the day of small things." (Zech. 4:10.) He told how important it was in life's work to be faithful in the small things we do. He said that all great things in life had their small beginning, and that he that was not faithful in that which is least would not be faithful in that which is great.
The service in the afternoon was occupied by the different ministers of the city who were present. Rev. M. W. Moore, pastor of the Monumental Baptist Church, delivered the anniversary sermon to a large congregation, and was followed by brief remarks from various other pastors, who in words of praise and commendation paid glowing tributes to pastor Bell and his flock. Many were the congratulations for the splendid work of the church and its being free from debt.
The night service was given over to the choir and young people, who had prepared a special musicale for the anniversary occasion. The musical program was exceptionally interesting and pleasing to the large gathering and was of a truth the elimax of the day's worship and enjoyment. A general summary of the pastor's work was the subject of an address delivered by J. M. Easterling, church clerk.
This church is in splendid condition and advancing along all lines. It is being replenished with new members constantly and is playing a great part in the saving of souls, the relieving of suffering and distress and in the moral, social and intellectual uplift of mankind in general. This congregation enjoys the distinction of having a model pastor and a leading church.
The large auditorium was taxed for capacity to accommodate the great concourse of people who came to witness the occasion. The church was gorgeously decorated with roses and cut flowers. High upon the big pipe organ hung draperies of flowers, interspersed with a number of bird cages, in which were birds sweetly chirping while. Pots of flowers decorated the windows of the church all around, which made a picturesque scene, and the auditorium was a veritable flower garden.
Deacons C. H. Cox and George W. Wilson made fitting remarks on the eight years' successful work of the lastor in presenting him to the con-

gregation. They told of the many good things he had done both for the church and the people of Chattanooga in general. The choir furnished a most excellent song service, with Miss Dufferin Barner performing at the organ. Dr. Bell is a great worker, a great preacher, race leader and lover of humanity. He is very unassuming, and enjoys the esteem and confidence of all who know him, both colored and white. His membership is appreciative of his worth to them and the race and wish for him many other anniversaries multiplied again and again by eight years as the pastor of the First Baptist Church.
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF
HADLEY PARK ON JULY 4TH
Rev. W. S. Ellington, pastor of First Baptist Church, has been selected to deliver the principal address on the occasion of the anniversary celebration of the opening of Hadley Park, which will take place Friday, July 4th. Dr. Ellington, who will deliver the address on behalf of the colored citizens of Nashville, is generally recognized throughout the entire South as being one of the ablest leaders of the race and is of a type of Christian gentleman in whom members of the race alike delight to honor.
The Board of Park Commissioners are steadily adding to the beauty and attractiveness of Hadley Park and within a reasonable time it is promised that the colored citizens of Nashville will have opened to them a public park such as will cause them to be extremely proud, and one which will in every way represent the Negro citizenship of Nashville. The Park Commission, however, it is known, are watching with much interest the attitude the colored citizens are taking with reference to the colored park, and have been much encouraged to find that the park is being appreciated and will be more so when it has been put in perfect shape and made beautiful and attractive.
As an evidence of their appreciation of the colored park and of the efforts being put forth by the Park Commissioners to add to its accommodations, the colored people propose to celebrate the opening of the park July 4 with an appropriate program. The Negro Board of Trade has secured special permission from the Board and Park Commissioners to hold the anniversary with Dr. Ellington as the principle speaker. Dr. G. H. Bandy, president of the Negro Board of Trade, will deliver a short address on behalf of that organization and a short musical program will be rendered. Rev. J. C. Fields, pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church, and Rev. G. W. Porter, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, will assist with the devotional exercises. A splendid band concert will be given at night, this feature already having been arranged for the celebration was proposed by the Park Commission.
The Negro Board of Trade is making an effort to have as many colored people of Nashville visit the park as

A. M. E.'S BLANK SOUTHERN STARS.
The A. M. E.'s sut out the Southern Stars last Saturday at Belmont. The score was 1 to 0. Alexander was in great form, having perfect control—not walking a batter and striking out 8. He allowed only three hits and only one star reached third base. His support was brilliant; his teammates forming a solid stone wall behind him. The game was exciting and nerve, racking throughout. Though the league leaders tallied early in the game, the game was not won until the last man was out in the ninth. The Stars' fought stubbornly and put up a good game. Blair was in form and except in one inning, kept the hits scattered, hence no more runs. In the first inning the A. M. E.'s scored. Mixon hit safely and was forced at second by Whitsett's infield tap; McGavock came up and hit for three bags. Whit sitt scored. After this there was no such thing as a score in sight—only once when Crosby of the A. M. E.'s attempted to score from three on a hit to short, only to give up the ghost unsafe at home. The score follows.

ATHLETIC 4. GLOBE 2.
At Hadley Park Saturday the Athletics defeated the Globe 4 to 2. It was a pitchers' battle between Vincent and Harris. The Globe infield was weak at short and second, and several costly errors were their undoing. Howell behind the bat made two errors that were costly, but his was excusable, because he was not in condition to play, but stuck to his post in his eagerness to help his team win if possible. Webb and Hayes were out of the game and their absence was felt. The Athletics played a steady game and deserved to win. The score:

CAPITAL CITY LEAGUE NOTES.
From A. M. E. Camp
From A. M. E. Clemens
Well, another scalp hitched to our belt. We are not puffed up over the matter—we can lose; but watch us.
* **Baptist Hill Swifts** are the next victims or victors—which shall it be? We're specially training and praying—and then we are going to play some ball too—that ought to win.
* ****
If we ever go out to Belmont again (and we don't think we will) we want to don a coat of mail in self-defense or engage a special detail of blue-coats. It's dangerous out there, that's the prize-winning bunch—the "squabblingest," fussiest" "hot-air-jammers" that ever passed for ball players (some exceptions).
We have been honored with the presence of the President and Secretary of the League at our last two games. They like us somehow. They want us to—play ball. We're doing that. You are welcome; you bring good luck.
* * *
Well, that was not a bad game last Saturday. The manager of the Black Sox will tell you that. He enjoyed (2) the game very much indeed. There's another game coming that we'll enjoy much better.
* * *
Why don't the umpires put out of the games some of these fuss boxes? Suppose you try that, Mr. Umpire—it will do the sport lots of good.
* * *
No, Kelly, old boy, you can't overtake the N. & C. Stars. Suppose you give up that chase and start back home—towards the top. Where's Robinson and that inside work—Come on! Come on!
Species to the Globe
The Pulaski, Tenn., and Athens, Ala., teams split even in two games on the 27th and 28th of last month. Athens won the first game by a score of 7 to 6. The game was won in the ninth, when Smith weakened and allowed two runs.
In the second game Tillory was complete master of the game from the first until the end of the game. He was invincible, allowing only two runs and three hits, and fourteen men going via the strike-out way, with one base on balls. Cox, of Athens, allowing 13 hits, two bases on balls and nine strikeouts, with 13 runs. W. Beasley played an exceptionally fine game at third base. In Robt. Smith, Jeff Tillory and McKinley Buford we have a trio of slabmen who bid fair to become stars in faster company. In Johnson we have as good a catcher as can be found in the south. Maples, at second base, will make good with any team. Pulaski is to play Columbia July 3rd and 4th.
We issue challenges to any teams in the state, and especially to the A. M. E. Globe and Southern Stars. We would like very much to show some of these Capital City League teams how to play a game of baseball. Now show that you are game by accepting our challenge.

The Unbeatable Greenwood Giants
Defeated.
Before the terrific hitting of the fast going Black Sox the Great Greenwood team goes down to defeat, to the tune of eight to seven. Campbell and Stratton did the star stick work for the Sox, while Moorman, who relieved Brooks in the sixth inning, pitched a cool, steady, heady game the three innings he was on the mound, holding Greenwood at his mercy. Davis, the Giants' new shortstop, did the starring both at bat and in the field for his team. The Sox used up three pitchers for the Greenwood team.
The Black Sox team was very much disappointed when they learned that it will be nearly a month before they meet the Sunday-School Union team, as every man was on edge to meet the A. M. E.'s while interest was at such a high pitch. By August 2nd they will be so far down the ladder, we won't know they are in the league. For the benefit of several of the A. M. E. men who have asked if we were going to see their game the morning of the fourth, would like to say that every Sox rooter will be out to pull for the B. H. Swifts.
There are three players on the Sox team of whom little has been said, and strange to say they are three of the Sox's strongest men. They are Steger, the fast fielding centerfielder, who is hitting like a demon; McGavock, the fleet left fielder, who has fallen off in batting, owing to the management changing his style of hitting, and the other is Tipton, the Sox's star utility man, who has played good ball in the two games in which he has participated.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
The open aid meeting last Sunday at 4 p. m. at the corner of Tenth and Fairvie wavenues was well attended. Dr. N. H. Plus brought the men a message that they cannot forget. The management of the Association is becoming more and more convinced that Dr. Plus is an Association man of the highest type. He loves young men and knows their cesires and is able to sympathize with them. Young men will do well to cultivate his acquaintance. His life is a source of inspiration.
Next Sunday Dr. Ballou will address the meeting. The following committee is responsible for the meeting:
Mr. J. B. Richie, the efficient manager of the Y. M. C. A. baseball team, was out of the city last week, but the fellows won out over the N. & C. Stars, even at that. Mr. Lee handled the team well. See the schedule for places for future games. The Y. M. C. A. boys say they are in the game to play it for all it is worth. They go out first to beat with a small margin even the best of teams, and if it develops in the course of a game that they are up against a group of "jelly-beans," then they try to beat them to a frazzle. The motto of the team is

THE NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION
Wider publicity for the facts of Negro progress and problems of race adjustment is being everywhere secured through heartier and more systematic co-operation among Negro editors and correspondents. Today men have a better chance than they have ever had before to secure accurate and timely facts concerning the struggles and successes of colored people, especially in the South. An important factor in the widening and deepening of public interest in the Negro as a progressive and vital element in American civilization, is the National Negro Press Association organized in 1909 and given new life in 1912 at the Chicago meeting of the National Negro Business League. The officers and members of the
Negro Press Association are working harmoniously "for the highest development of Negro journalism." their policy is that of printing 'the news without fear of favor, giving a true reflux of existing conditions without concealing evil." Their policy includes the publication of a Negro newspaper and publishers' directory; and the establishment of higher standards in advertising, business methods, and news service for the public. The work on the directory is being ably done by Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., the national corresponding secretary. The problems of working out a plate service and of developing a reciprocal news service are still perplexing ones.
The time has come for giving full publicity to the good work which the Negroes are doing. The white papers are coming to realize that the public is interested in Negro progress. The vare printing as news items the advance of the American Negro in land owning, home building, community and school improvement. The Negro papers are devoting more space to live news concerning their own people and less to sensational material in which the ways, and net the best ways of white people are exploited; in short, there is a gratifying growth in the common interest of giving all the people all the news of mutual progress and good will.
The officers of the National Negro Press Association are: R. W. Thompson, Washington, D. C., president; Joseph S. Jones, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Gurley Brewer, Indianapolis, Ind. vice presidents; Henry Allen Boyd, Nashville, Tenn., and Charles Sumner Smith, Minneapolis, Min., secretaries; John L. Thompson, Des Molines, Iowa, treasurer; N. Barnett Dodson, New York City, chairman of the executive committee.—The Southern Workman.
RESOLUTION ADOPTED BY THE M.T. HOREB BAPTIST CHURCH, GREENVILLE, MISS., INHONOR OF REV. R. W. CHRISTIAN.
The following was adopted by the M.T. Horeb Baptist Church, Greenville, Miss., on the departure of Rev. R. W. Christian, their pastor, June 16th, 1913.
Whereas, Through the wisdom of God and by his great omnipotence we, the members of Mt. Horeb M. B. Church, with reluctance bow in humble submission to the loss of our dear pastor who resigned of his own free will and accord to take charge of a church at Nashville, Tenn., be it Resolved, That eighteen months past, we, the members of Mt. Horeb M. B. Church, called Rev. R. W. Christian as pastor and to you, dear friends and pastor, we release you, but allow us to acknowledge to you as to your worth and guidance to you as a church.

lovingly, attentively and individually.
You have preached the unadulterated Scripture as no pastor has; your work and worth to us are not disputed and no one can deny this fact. Your visitation to the sick bed has been a guiding angel; your ability as a providing officer is not excelled; your kind manner of speech has won our hearts and affection; your peace you have given us, and we will not depart from it. We know that Nashville has gained and taken from us our own and only jewel. In every way you have lived the life of a Christian minister; to lose you gives us great pain, but a case of to be or not to be known we trust the Comforter will come, believing God will take care of us all the way. Now to you, Rev. Christian, the time is here and we must give you up by accepting your resignation and must say to you farewell. But
Whereas, you welcome the hour that awakens the night's doings of mirth of songs and hand shakings in your honor then think of the dear friends who welcomed it too; who forget then our grief to be happy with you; our grief may relieve or not a hope remain of the many dear friends that you have forgotten; our pathway still it may be chucked to the core with pain, still we will never forget the bright vision that threw its echant

Therefore let fate do her most; there is still a relic of joy of bright dreams of the past that cannot and will not be destroyed which comes in the night time of sorrow and care and brings back the future made for man.
