NASHVILLE-OFFERS OPPORTUNITY Vol. VIII. Rev. Preston Taylor Delivered the Pincipal Address at Hopkinsville Monster Demonstration and Street Parade—Decorated Vehicles,Floats Autos and Horseback Riders—Queen of Honor with Maids Present Beautiful Spectacle Marched all Streets. Special to the Globe. Hopkinsville, Ky., Sept. 22.—Rev. Preston Taylor, widely known and substantial leader of the race of Nashville, Tenn., was the orator of the day at the fiftieth anniversary celebration held here today of the issuance of the proclamation giving freedom to more than three million colored slaves in the United States as a necessity. It will be remembered that while Lincoln's proclamation announced that the emancipation of the slaves would be effective on and after January 1, 1863, the famous state paper went to the Senate on September 22. The event was celebrated here with speechmaking and an industrial parade, the most pretentious ever had and drew forth the greatest praise and commendation from the white citizens in this section and the daily press, who paid high complements to the race for its advancement made during the past fifty years. Rev. Taylor's address was made in the open before more than thousand spectators, the very air being punctuated with enthusiasm, because of the accomplishments of the race since slavery. Rev. Taylor delivered a matchless address and gave to those who listened to him much inspiration, encouragement and advice. At times the speaker was cheered by the assembled multitude until the applause could be heard for miles away. He was introduced by Mr. Louis Berry, chairman of the Committee of the local Knights of Pythias, under whose auspices the celebration was given, and the proceeds from which goes toward caring for the indigent poor of the race in Hopkinsonville the coming winter. There were seated on the speaker's platform, which was beautifully decorated an even dozen of Kentucky's most fairest and lovely young maidens in the center of the group being seated the Queen, clad in a most elegant costume, the following gentlemen: Revs. E. Williams, pastor of the Virginia Church Church; R. L. Bayliss, who offered invocation; G. H. Hubbard and Hon. Hiram S. Smith, the local colored city councilman. The proclamation was read by the Queen, following which Mr. Louis Berry, master of ceremonies, introduced Rev. Taylor. He called attention to the fact that in Rev. Mr. Taylor, the race had a real representative type of the American Negro turned loose 50 years ago upon the world to become a ward upon the government, but instead, there was not a single man, no matter for how many thousand years he boasted of his ancestry, who would not be more than proud to claim unto his race such a record as has been made by the speaker of the day. He compared Rev. Taylor along with Dr. Booker T. Washington and other noted race leaders, who are singly recognized for their forethought, wisdom, intelligence, wealth and leadership. "With such advancement along all lines as has been acknowledged by all the world in these fifty years what will be the results and the accomplishments of my race in another fifty years" was the opening declaration of Dr. Taylor. It was the most appreciative audience that had assembled on a similar occasion in Hopkinsville in many years. "Our progress has not been a local one, but a national one, and there are fewer drones, fewer beggars, in our race than can be said of any race in the whole world" continued the speaker, this assertion drawing forth tremendous applause. The wealth, intelligence and thrift of the race, said the speaker may be found wherever one goes. He told of a recent trip South which he made and where he visited the plantation of one ex-slave who now owns one thousand and two acres of land, all paid for through the savings of the owner, and much of the land having been purchased outright at a large cost price from the ancestors of the man who once owned him. This story created great interest. He also told of a visit to Mond Bayou Miss., the Negro city, and declared that the people took such great pride in their own town and are so stimulated over self-government until there has been only one man arrested there within the last ten years. For more than two hours the speaker marshalled such truths of the race's loyalty, progress and advancement, that the thousands of interested listeners were kept constantly cheering and when he finally concluded such an applause went up that the air was rent with sounds like unto that which had never been heard by the oldest residents of this section.

Boyd—Constructive of Ex-Slave Who Knows How to Manage—Has Played a Remarkable Part in Race's History. National Convention Holds Big Jubilee Celebration—Seventeen Years of Toll—Business End of Mammoth Religious Concern Recited by Secretary Richard H. Boyd, LL D., in Annual Report—Constructive Work of an Ex-slave Who Knows How to Manage. Blazing the way for a higher civilization among the Negro's religious and educational life, Richard Henry Boyd, D. D., LL D., secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board and the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, showed the remarkable progress made by the two boards under his direct supervision during the past few years. In making his report to the National Baptist Convention that is in session in this city observing the fifty years of freedom in the form of a religious jubilee, he showed conclusively that when it comes to the constructive part of the Negro, whether he be in the educational, religious or skilled labor world, he has a remarkable part. DR. R. H. EOYD. D. D., LL. D., Secretary of National Baptist Publishing Board. With practically no aid and with only plaudits and flattering compliments from a stranger here and there he has been able by the courage of his convictions to carry on a religious publishing concern that has handled during this year, 1913, over $200,000, giving employment to more than 200 individuals and operating a missionary department at a cost of over $42,000 for the past year. But the gigantic strides made by the boards have reached such a proportion that they appear to stagger one as they look up at the great heights attained in proficiency and excellence. The record of the institution, which is just seventeen years old, as shown in Dr. Boyd's report, exceeds the old motto "Excelior." In point of circulation this report shows that more than 12,000,000 copies of religious Sunday-school periodicals have gone throughout the confines of the Convention, and that they have paid the government, railroads, express and telegraph companies more than $1,000 in the transmission of their mails, messages, products and output, and that they are leading the entire race in the publishing and business world in the high grade, intricate printing and publishing machinery. The Convention was loud in its applause in receiving the report of this exsalve, who has known no university training, except (what is often said of him) that which is got out of the "swamp university," a school which he claims existed around the firesides in slavery times, where only a phe knot served as the lamp giving light by which to read. Dr. Boyd was twenty-one years old before he learned his alphabet, but lays no claim whatever to having accomplished anything except through prayer and perseverance and by the faith of his people. The National Baptist Publishing House, as the report shows, occupies seven brick buildings located at the corner of Second avenue, North, and Locust street, Nashville, Tenn., and is the pride of more than 2,500,000 communicants in this denomination. It has often been said and was brought out very clearly in this report that they are supplying churches with everything the church may need, fro ma picture tesson card for little ones in the Sunday-school to (Continued from page 1.) NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 26, 1913. NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION FINISHES LABORS Noted Preachers Deliver Strong Sermons—B. Y. P. U. Reports. The delegates attending the National Baptist Convention spent Sunday in church and listened to some of the most noted preachers in the country. Every church was supplied with a minister from the convention, and the Sunday-school mass-meeting was one of the interesting features. Rev. William Beckham, of Nashville, conducted the Sunday-school, assisted by Rev. H. M. Williams, of Galveston, Texas, and Henry Allen Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress. At 11 o'clock Dr. E. C. Morris, of Helena, President of the convention, preached the jubilee sermon, using as his text, "Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations; ask thy Father and he will show thee; the elders and they will tell thee." Deut. 32:7. An appeal for the religious training of the young people of the Negro race was made by the Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, Corresponding Secretary of the National B. Y. P. U. Board. He pointed out the many avenues of vice and sin open to them, the cheap theatres and other places which would tend to weaken the race. In closing his report Dr. Isaac reported forty-eight state B. Y. P. U. conventions; 382 district B. Y. P. U. conventions; 350 county conventions, 483 city conquest organizations, 8,478 local B. Y. P. U. societies, 82,640 enrolled in Bible readers' course, 61,200 enrolled in Baptist history classes, 250 enrolled in Baptist doctrine classes, collected for Christian education, $72,105; for home missions, $60,365-70; for foreign missions, $46,673.68; for state missions, $32,665; for church repairs, $44,290; for B. Y. P. U. $13,709.41; expended by the Board, $13,652.50; balance, $54.21. New accession to the Foreign Mission Board, the bride of Dr. L. G. Jordan, was presented to the convention and given an ovation. She is one of the best known workers in the church among the colored people, and was married last June to Dr. L. G. Jordan. She comes from Helena, Ark, where she is a heavy property owner. Dr. A. M. Johnson presided at the opening of the convention Saturday morning, and Rev. J. W. Shaw, of Tennessee, offered the opening prayer. "I am glad to see the interest which we are taking in the Sunday-schools and Sunday-school, work," said Rev. T. S. Sandefur, President of the State Sunday-School Convention of Arkansas. He was followed by Dr. C. T. Stamps, of Mississippi, President of the State B. Y. P. U. Convention, who spoke along the same line. The convention voted down a proposition to hold biennial sessions, which means that the session will be held next year in Philadelphia. There was a breezy time over a recommendation to refer the business of the convention to a committee of twenty-five. The question was discussed pro and con by Revs. J. E. Ward, of Kentucky; A. Barbour, of Texas; P. James Bryant, Georgia; S. R. Prince, Texas; E. B. Topp, Mississippi; G. B. Green, Florida; E. J. Fisher, Illinois; G. W. Goodgame, Alabama; H. M. Williams, Texas; W. H. Jernagin, District of Columbia, and J. P. Robinson, of Arkansas. Chaplain B. G. Regen, of the State Penitentiary, was introduced and spoke as follows: "I am here this morning for the purpose of extending an invitation to this convention to send a minister to speak to my boys Sunday morning. We have 1,000 men behind the prison bars. We believe that there is a precious jewel in the heart of every man and should be reached. I am standing for the moral improvement of the men. We have a night school and I am glad to say that the colored boys are taking advantage of the school. All men behind the bars are not criminals. Some are there because of lack of opportunity and advantage, and many of them, when they come out, we hope, will be better prepared. "I want to wish you God speed in the good work you are doing for humanity. We ask your prayers for our work." Col. Allen Allensworth, of California, United States Army, was appointed to speak at the prison. Dr. L. K. L. Campbell, President of the General Convention of Texas, spoke of the educational and missionary work in the state. He said that the Negroes were buying homes and educating their children. Other addresses were made by Dr. L. N. Cheeks, of Charlotte, S. C., who spent several years in Africa as missionary; L. K. Williams, President of the Missionary and Educational Convention, and Thomas H. White, Cliffon Forge, Va. Rev. J. E. McCullough, Secretary of the Southern Sociological Association. tion, extended greetings from the Association, in a talk made before the National Baptist Convention this morning. "At the meeting of the Southern Sociological Association, held in Atlanta, Ga, there were," said Mr. McCullough, "100 members of your race, who met with 850 white men and women. We determined beforehand that we would tell just exactly what we meant. This being agreed upon, we began to find a solid platform on which both races could stand. We agreed upon the absolute integrity and purity of the blood of both races, and this was agreed upon to a man. "Second, we agreed upon absolute justice to both races, whatever the conditions were," and third, we agree upon 'a wide open door of opportunity to both races.' The key of merit must and will open the door. "Every Southern Governor except one is putting this into operation." The report of the National Baptist Benefit Board by Rev. R. M. Caver, of Little Rock, concluded the morning session of the convention. Dr. Caver urged the ministers to provide for their widows and orphans by taking insurance. He declared that it was absolutely necessary. Dr. J. H. C. Henry, of Vicksburg, spoke on the report. NATIONAL COUNSELLOR HARRISON The National Baptist Convention re-elected Lawyer Wm. Harrison, of Oklahoma City, Okla., as their National legal advisor. Mr. Harrison is well known in this city, having at one time held a chair in the faculty of Roger Williams University. After becoming a citizen of Oklahoma he has made an enviable reputation as a brister. He is also president of the National Negro Bar Association. Mr. Harrison is popular in secret order circles also, holding the position of Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of his state. C. M. E. STATE EDUCATIONAL MASS-MEETING CLOSED MASS-MEETING CLOSED. The Educational Mass-meeting of the C. M. E. Church of Arkansas was held this year at Pine Pluff. Quite a number of ministers and delegates were present. Miss M. F. Cottrell, daughter of Bishop Cottrell, had charge of the musical department. The meeting was favored with several prominent speakers. The preachers of Little Rock and the Arkansas Conferences, with the assistance of other able men are standing by Bishop Cottrell in his effort to establish the Arkansas Industrial College. There will be erected at College Height buildings for the launching of the Arkansas Industrial College. Rev. G. W. Young, presiding elder of the Washington District Conference, Little Rock, Ark., reported the largest amount of money. Rev. E. N. Nichols came second. The total amount raised from the Conference was $2,689.76, and from other sources $101.24; grand total, $3,000. The mass-meeting adopted resolutions thanking Bishop E. Cottrell for the manner in which he presided over the meeting. MT. ZION BAPSTIST CHURCH IM PROVEMENTS Rev. Christian, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church has succeeded in putting in new windows and he and his congregation are making other improvements that will make this building the most beautiful in that section of the city. There is an air of activity around Mt. Zion that shows a new awakening among all of the members. MRS. HENDERSON OF CHICAGO. Mrs. Lizzie Henderson of Chicago is in the city for an indefinite visit to her niece, Mrs. Ruth Perkins of 1612 Harding street. She came down with Dr. Fisher's delegation to the National Baptist Convention THE ADDRESS OF DR.WASHINGTON THE ADDRESS OF DR.WASHINGTON Thousands Hear Distinguished Educator at National Baptist Convention Points out some Injustices Practiced —Urges Negroes to Contend for Dues—Makes Appeal for Children—Need Better Educational Facilities—Takes Rap at Railroads. This is the twelfth time that you have invited me to deliver an address before the National Baptist Convention which, in my opinion is the largest delegated organization of our race in this country and I believe anywhere in the world. There is a tremendous responsibility involved in bringing together so large a body of our race once a year. There is responsibility for the expenses of traveling and entertainment responsibility for the loss of valuable time away from one's occupation. How can you make this great gathering so valuable to our race and to our country that everyone will feel that the time and money spent in coming here is worth white? More and more an increasing degree the Christian Church has got to face the social problem of the day. The church in an increasing degree must realize that the problem of to day is to save the soul of the man by saving the body. I am glad that I have an opportunity in addressing this important organization here in the proud capital of the state of Tennessee in connection with the celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the freedom of our race. There is in the city of Nashville by reason of the liberal spirit shown by the white people and the unusual opportunities for education of our race perhaps the most advanced group of our people, all things considered, to be found anywhere in the South. This, then I repeat, is a fit place and a fit occasion in which to consider some of the achievements of the past and some of the future. What we have accumulated during the past fifty years has been largely through the influence of the church. What we are to attain to in the near future is going to be largely the result of the influence and teachings of the church. One thing stands out definite, clean and distinct in the achievement during the last fifty years. We have proven to the world that we can survive from a physical point of view in a state of freedom. There were not a few who predicted more fifty years ago when the Negro was made free that he would disappear as a race. At the beginning of freedom we numbered four millions. After fifty years of freedom we now number over ten millions, a population larger than that of the whole of Canada and twice as large as that of Australia. We have in the United States as many of our people as there are persons all told in Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Denmark. * * * * * * * We have not only proven that we could survive in a state of freedom, but that we could live in the presence of the white man and imbibe something from his civilization at every point of contact that has made us stronger, better and more useful citizens. When the white man touh the native Australian years ago the Australian began to disappear. The same was true of the Hawaiian, the same of the American Indian, but the Negro unlike any of these, flourishes and prosperst in the presence of the man's civilization. We have not only survived, but we have proven to the world from an economic point of view that we could support ourselves. There were not a few who predicted before our freedom began that we would prove as a race a perpetual burden on the pocketbook of the nation, that we would not clothe, feed or shelter ourselves. Bring all the fifty years of the freedom of our race since the days of reconstruction we have never called as a race upon Congress to provide for a single dollar to be used in providing either food, clothing or shelter for our people. We have not only done this, but we have accumulated something over $700,000,000 made so great progress in so short a time. The Russian serfs were emancipated in 1861. Fifty years after it was found that 14,000,000 of them had accumulated about $500,000,000 worth of property or about $36 per capita, an average of $200 per family. Fifty years after emancipation only about 30 per cent of the Russian peasant were able to read and write. After fifty years of freedom the ten million Negroes in the United States have accumulated over $700,000,000 of property, or about $70 per capita, which is an average of $250 per family. After fifty years of freedom 70 per cent of them have some education in cooks. (Continued on page 8.) TENNESSEE'S LEA- ING NEGRO JOURNAL No. 39. ALL SCHOOLS READY FOR WORK Roger Williams to Begin in Full Blast Wednesday MOrning Oct. 1st The Attendance at Each Institution Will be Very Large—Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament Opens First Meharry Second to Begin in Some Departments—State With the beginning of next week all of the schools in this city will open in full blast. Meharry opens in full on the 24th, State Normal opened on the 23rd, Fisk opened Wednesday and the opening of Roger Williams on Monday completes the list. These institutions bring to Nashville every year hundreds of young people from every part of the country, who come to take advantage of the splendid opportunities offered here to acquire an education. They come also because of the good reputation this city has towards strangers. At Stisters of Blessed Sacrament. The female Catholic school, Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, opened on the eighth of the month with over one hundred in attendance. The outlook for a prosperous year is good. New students are being enrolled every day. This is the only female school in the city, and offers special advantages to young women. At Meharry. The opening at Meharry took place Wednesday morning. Some departments opened earlier, but Wednesday morning Dean Hubbard pulled the throttle wide open, and from now until next spring the boys must keep at it every day. The attendance is large for so early in the season, and the indications are that it will exceed any previous year. At State Normal. Auspicious exercises attended the opening of the A. and I. State Normal School Tuesday afternoon. State Superintendent Brister was the principal speaker, and delivered a forceful address, advising the students to take advantage of the liberal education provided by the State. He stated that under the management of Prof. W. J. Hale the school had enjoyed a most successful year, and predicted that the coming year would be even more successful. Other addresses were made by President A. M. Townsend, of Roger Williams University; Revs. G. W. Porter, W. S. Ellington, N. G. Schamburger, Dr. G. H. Bandy, Alonzo Napier, Rev. R. H. Boyd, Rev. Ford, Costa Rico, and Miss Nannie Burroughs. Music was furnished by Madame Anderson, of Chicago, assisted by a large chorus. At Fisk they have been turning away girl applicants for several weeks, and the boys' department is about full. Several changes have been made in the faculty this year, principally among them being the election of Dr. Morrow, Dean, to succeed Prof. Wright, who was breaking down under the great strain. Another change that is meeting with popular favor is the selection of Prof. Caruthers to fill the gap made by the untimely death of Prof. Poindexter. The following are the new members of the faculty: Miss Hazel Babcock, Instructor Harmony, Plano and Violin; Mrs. Estelle Crawford, Health Officer; Mr. John Thomas Caruthers, Instructor in Agronomy and Biology; Mr. Elmer Imes, Instructor in Science; Miss Carrie Kilbourn, Instructor in Sightsighting; Miss Charlotte Pealer, Assistant to Treasurer; Mrs. C. C. Poindexter, In charge of Book Room; Dr. C. W. Morrow, Dean; Miss Clar瑟l Walker, Kindergarten and Critic in Training School; Miss Walls, Assistant in Sociological Department; Rev. Joseph N. Haskell, College Pastor and Instructor. At Walden. Under the supervision of Dean Hubbard, Walden University opened Wednesday morning with a large attendance. This was no doubt partly due to the fact that the future for this the oldest college for the education of the colored youth in the State since the announcement that a new building is to be erected great interest has been manifested in the school. At Rager Williams. Roger Williams University will open for reception of students and organization on October 1st. The school has a strong faculty, which has been carefully selected. A new feature has been added, which will be a commercial course. The formal opening and inauguration of President Townsend will take place at 2 o'clock Wednesday, October 15th. The outlook for a full school under the new president seems flattering. Applications are rapidly coming in every day, and indications are that by the first every room in the boarding department will have been taken. Many new faces will be seen in the faculty this year, as well as among the student body. Misses Catherine, Sachel and Alene Daly of Pulaski. Tenn., are visiting Mr. and Mrs. Theo. Watkins, Jr. on Hamilton street. Mrs. Howard Petway of St. Paul, Minn., is in the city and will spend the winter with her mother at 1601 Jackson street. GALLATIN NOTES.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1913. MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION Examination of Nurses Notice is given in the daily papers of this city that the State Board of Examiners of Tennessee will hold examinations in the parliars of the Young Women's Christian Association building on the sixth and seventh of October. The notice further states that it is against the law of this state to practice nursing as a graduate nurse without a license. When this Board held examinations the last time in this state, colored women were denied the privilege of taking the examination. Now the question arises, what position would a court take if a colored woman who is a graduate nurse should be arrested for practicing her profession? Never before in the history of Tennessee have professional people been denied a right guaranteed to them by the constitution of the state. Lawyers and doctors always take the same examination at the same time. School teachers and those who desire to engage in other professional pursuits have never been refused when they applied to take an examination. It has remained for the State Board of Nurse Examiners to deny colored women what is by law and principle their right to receive. We contend that the action of this board in refusing to give the examination to colored nurses renders the said board of non-effect. There are colored nurses in Tennessee who have graduated from the oldest and best nurse-training school in the country. Se the refusal of the Board to give them examinations can not be on the ground of incompetency. The people of the state desire that colored nurses be given the examination, and the majority of people prefer colored nurses to white, but in the face of all this the Board has heretofore absolutely refused to give colored nurses the examination. Governor Hooper in his message made special mention of the attitude of this Board, and recommended that the matter be remedied. It is left to be seen whether or not the attitude of the Board has changed. It is hoped that the position taken during last examinations will not be adhered to in this examination. All Boards of Examiners in this state, with the exception of this one, have shown the kindest sympathy for the colored citizens in the state. They have granted them every privilege due them, and Tennessee cannot afford at this late day to have her record blighted with such an unjust and unreasonable discrimination. Queer Reasoning Commenting on Dr. Booker T. Washington's advice that Negroes take advantage of the business opportunities of the South, the Democrat of Wednesday morning had the following to say: The colored educator undoubtedly knows the Negro better than we do and his travels may have afforded him better opportunity to have acquainted himself with the needs of the South. At the same time his catalog of enterprises seems so lopsided that it invites comment and criticism. Take the item of 1,000 sawmills, Where is the timber for the operation? How is the Negro going to come by tracts that are ready to be worked, when it takes hundreds of thousands of dollars to handle such propositions? The suggestion of 10,000 new stores is something preposterous. There may be a demand for a few such in communities where the Negroes constitute a large part of the population, but any such number as herein mentioned would bankrupt their promoters. The South does not need any more stores; it is store-poor now. This section needs factories, something to employ labor and create values. Along with the 1,000 brick-yards specified, let the colored youth learn to lay brick, to do carpenter work, to paint, plaster, paper and do plumbing. Instead of 1,500 shoe stores, let them start a few shoe factories, and industries of this character. They are great cooks and fine housemaids when they can be relied upon; let them be trained for this work and have the value of neatness, promptness and dependability ground into them. That store business seems to be about the worst idea Washington ever put into the Negro's head. This is queer reasoning. Negroes have been charged with slothfulness in business. They have been given to understand that if they want the young educated men and women of the race to have respectable occupations they must provide such for them. Dr. Washington is advising the Negroes to go into business of every kind, and especially those pursuits that are closely allied to the soil. But the Democrat objects to Negroes running saw-mills and conducting stores and running brickyards, but suggests that they have shoe factories instead of shoe stores. The objection to the saw-mill is that it requires too much capital, but at the same time it is suggested that a shoe factory be started instead of a shoe store. The Democrat is so illogical in its advice that it is not worth while to discuss it. We wish to urge Negroes to take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself, with the assurance that every attempt to do business of whatever nature will be encouraged by the best white people of the South, the objection of the Democrat to the contrary notwithstanding. Dr. Miller Condemns the Globe. We received in this office a few days ago a letter from Dr. Miller, which reads as follows: 912 Division street Sept. 11, 1913, Nashville, Tenn. To the Editor of the Globe: Kind Sir—I hope you can find space in your paper to print my letter. I think the paper is a good way for molding sentiment, and when it stands for the right thing we get good results. But when it stands for the wrong thing, then we get bad results. But in the case of the Globe it seems that we are bound to get bad results, because it stands for vice and non-enforcement of the laws of the state. It stands for a man that openly violates the laws. When there is a law on the statute books and this law is not carried out to the letter, the Negro race gets the worst of it by far more than anybody else. Therefore any Negro who stands for the non-enforcement of the law puts me in the place where I can't see how he is thinking. And it looks like some kind of a consideration has been made. It is true that the Globe has said many good things for the advancement of the race, but at this time when it could do the most good for the race in the way of shaping sentiment, it is trying to shape the wrong kind of sentiment. You know under the present administration that Negroes have been clubbed by officers and for no reason whatever, and you know that the law says that an officer has no right to beat, club or shoot any one they may arrest, unless they resist. You know that they don't do any other race that way but the Negro race. You know it is against the law and still you advocate a man that will allow such to go on. If a man should offer me a million dollars to do anything to help such a man as that in office I would consider it the greatest insult that I could receive from any one. I would rather do the thing that would go for the betterment of my people than to have a million dollars at any time. When I find a man who thinks different to that, then I don't care for my people to read or know anything about such a person. I think the Globe could have done a noble work had it stood for the enforcement of the law. Respectfully, A MILLER D. D. S. A. C. MIDLER, B. D. MIDLER, P. S. - Please stop my subscription for the Globe. On Investigation, we discovered that Dr. Miller owes the Globe 70 cents on his subscription. We regret that we cannot give him a clear bill of sale, but just as soon as this disting- uished gentleman will come to the office and settle up his account, we will be ready to comply with his request. We would be very much plea- ced to have Dr. Miller continue as one of our readers, but we can force no man to take the Globe against his will, but we do insist that all reformers pay their bills. In the issue of the Globe of Sept. 5th there appeared an article by Prof. H. L. Keith on the "Dean of Fisk." We have been endeavoring to find a way to discuss this article without putting Prof. Keith in a bad light, but we have been unable to do so without making it appear that Prof. Keith is entitled to the Past Master's Degree in the Ananias Club. We therefore most respectfully refrain. The Democrat wants to know how can Negroes buy the land ready timbered to run a saw-mill. Ask Booker T. Washington; he has the scheme all figured out, and it is working like a charm. Next week we will have the people of the State as our guests. Let everybody be on good behavior. "Taint no taters" on the local market sure enough this year. How about your coal bin? You remember you had lots of fun at the picnic, but it won't burn in the winter time. The Nashville Pure Milk Company has put a colored salesman on the wagon in the vicinity of Fisk University. If Negroes patronize him he can hold that job. A hint should be sufficient. EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION (Continued from page 1.) The celebration was planned and given by the Penny Royal Lodge No. 27, Knights of Pythias, and the lodge was given the hearty support of the U. E. F., Wise Men, Knights of Taor, Old Soldiers, Uniform Ranks of of the Pythians, and others also the churches, among which were the Virginia Street Baptist, the Freeman Chapel C. M. E., and the Blooming Grove Baptist. The parade was by far the most representative spectacle that has ever been attempted by colored people where there being several hundred decorated vehicles, automobiles, floats, horseback riders, etc. A prize for the best decorated float, as well as for the second best, had been offered, and just before the exercises closed the judges, Messrs. S. D. Phillips, P. F. Boyd and E. G. Lamb, announced as the winner of the first prize Mr. W. E. Penn; and for the second, the elored Methodist Episcopal Sunday-school. Music was furnished by the Madisonville and Earlington bands. A base ball game played between teams from Hopkinsville and Earlington was enjoyed as a climax to the afternoon's pleasure. At night a mammoth social gathering was held at Friendship Hall that was a most enjoyable entertainment. The Queen of the celebration, Miss Mary Ella Turner, was most beautiful to look upon and was a representative type of the latter day Afro-American woman. She and her maids, were very becoming dressed and the picture presented an innocence and sweetness that was peculiarly striking and a pleasure at once to witness. Miss Turner is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James L. Turner, one of the leading younger families in Hopkinsville. The Queen received hundreds of compliments on her victory over her contestants in a most spirited race although friendly. Exhibition drills given by R. N. Lander company, Uniform Rank, K. of P., was also an enjoyable feature during the afternoon. MILADI'S NOTES Miss McLeary Honored. Mrs. Dora A.

Walker M'f'g Co., and the Lelia College, 640 North West St. Indianapolis, Ind. Mrs. Wm. James, 3725 Central Ave., Cleveland, O., Aug. 14, 1913. Mme. C. J. Walker: Dear Madame-I take great pleasure to inform you what your wonderful hair grower has done for me. I have tried everything imaginable, everything I heard of, or that any one would tell me of, and at last I gave it up as a hopeless case. My scalp was in a terrible condition, the dandruff was so thick on my scalp, that when I would scrape it off it would come off in large scales and there would be water under the scales. After a thorough combing, if I combed twice a day I would be covered with dandruff. On the 31st day of March, 1910, I heard of Madam C. J. Walker's wonderful hair grower for the first time. On April 18, 1910, I had my first treatment. My hair improved so rapidly that it encouraged me to continue my treatment. At the beginning of my treatment; my hair was one and one-half inches long. I was so enthused on the successful treatment of my hair that I became an agent for Madame C. J. Walker's wonderful hair grower, and I am proud to say that my hair is at this writing ten inches long. Words cannot be found that would give Madame C. J. Walker's wonderful discovery too much praise. It is a God-send to unfortunate women who are walking in the rank and file that I had walked. It has helped us financially since 1910. We have been able to purchase a home and over meet our obligations. Before I started out as an agent in Madame Walker's employ, I made the regular working woman's wages, but at this writing, three years later, I average $23 a week. Some of My Weeks' Wages Year beginning October 20, 1913: From 21 to 26. $19.15 From 28, to Nov 2. $28.85 From November 4 to 9. $18.05 Nov. 11 to 16th. $23.65 From 18th to the 23. $21.50 From 25th to the 30th. $22.75 December 2 to the 7th. $29.65 December 9th to the 15th. $26.75 December 17th to the 22nd. $33.00 December 24 to the 29. $27.85 My entire earnings for the first year, beginning October 20, 1910, till October, 1911. $793.65 Second year. $882.40 Ten months of 3rd year from October, 10, 1912, to Aug. 16. 1913 944 00 Praying the blessings of the Lord upon you and your company, I will close by saying husband joins me in love to you all.

First Cavailry Band, Mounted on Trained Horses, at Tennessee, State Fair. Rudolph Berliner and his First Cavalry Band provide one of the most effective and popular attractions of recent years, in addition to being one of the real novelties of the entertainment field. It is the first time a genuine mounted cavalry band has been offered as a professional attraction and feature, and the maintenance of rigid, regulation detail preserves an atmosphere of mortal picturesqueness and inspiration that establishes a new precedent in the outdoor entertainment world. There are thirty-five men in the organization, appearing in the parades mounted and discounted concerts, military ceremonies and details, battle tableaux and other features of an almost unending variety of sensational and impressive features. Among these are many men who have seen actual service, have served in mililia and local organizations. The first sergeant was drum major of an American minstrel band before joining the cavalry service, and was first drum major at the head of a band marching through the streets of Manila to twirl a bateon, a familiar enough sight to Americans, but creating a tremendous sensation among the natives. Other members, trick riders, musicians, etc., are veterans in the sense of service, although young in years, and engage in the maneuvers and evolutions with vim and vigor and trained accuracy. The organization is conducted on the lines of strictest service detail, with regulation duties, camp, parade, concert and evolution, the military ceremonies of reveille, guard mount, raising and lowering the colors, mess, stables and the full program accurate replica of the regular service. One of the most interesting features of the engagement of the First Cavalry Band is the camp regulations and ceremonies. Director Berliner has been officially commended as one of the most versatile, talented and efficient bandmasters that has ever served in the United States Army, department and division credentials attesting to his served three years as bandmaster of the Second U. S. Cavalry, during which time he directed the musical ceremonies of many imposing and important events. At Fort Meyer, adjoining Washington, D. C., the band was called into service to participate in innumerable important doings, and it was the favorite musical organization at command of Adjutant-General Corbin, to the practical exclusion of all the other famous bands in and around Washington. Director Berliner was at the head of the band when it made a tour of the world, playing concerts at the principal ports en route to the Philippines, where it remained for two years, returning via San Francisco. During the journey Director Berliner had the honor of directing his band in a program given by invitation at a reception at the hotel in Colombo by Counsess Russell, daughter of Lord Russell former viceroy of India. Director Berliner is a famous program maker, combining his experience in the service with the splendid opportunities as musical director of the orchestras in several leading metropolitan theatres. This enables him to select and conduct a rarely enjoyable and thoroughly satisfactory concert program, with just enough of each style of music, and is constantly evolving new and sensational numbers. Some of the mounted concert features come as complete surprises and he and his men are studying out new angles and rehearsing novelties practically all the time they are touring the country. While the regulation cavalry band is composed of 28 men, including cook, stable sergeant and others, the First Cavalry Band embraces 35 men, all splendidly mounted and trained to the last detail, and Director Berliner has had a great army of skilled American musicians to select from, not restricted to the limitations of enlisted service, with its mixed class of men. While the musicians are all members of the American Federation of Musicians, it is one of Director Berliner's proud boasts that no one of them but receives more than the set scale of compensation and several soloists receive a salary that many recognized leaders would be glad to have assured them. In addition to handsome and perfectly trained mounts, the band is equipped with cavalry service, khaki uniforms, horse trappings, guildons and paraphernalia, and with fine martial bearing present a most inspiring spectacle. A daily street parade through the principal thoroughfares of Nashville will be given by the big band, mounted on white horses, introducing in cavalry style, at the fair grounds all the evolutions on horseback, including musical selections. In the band stand the complete organization will render concerts, afternoon and evening, classic and poplar music as well as spectacular selections. With this great musical organization travels a quartet of singers, laides and gentlemen, introducing in prop costume both opera and popular music at the Tennessee State Fair, September 29 to October 4. FARMER CAN LEARN AT FAIR Where has the practical farmer been taught the value of better live stock and the types best adapted to his use? At his state fair. Every year he goes there, studies the conformation and types of the best specimens of the various breeds of horses, cattle, sheep, swine and poultry, attracted there from all over the world, and learns what each will do under given conditions. Then he goes home, looks over his own conditions and is ready to breed or buy intelligently. Negro Missionary Baptists begun in Nashville over a half cetuny ago, What Mrs. Nellie Seay says of the record made by the Baptist. By Henry Allen Boyd. For more than sixty-four years the Missionary Baptists have been worshipping as an organized body under their own vine and fig tree in the city of Nashville. While this was about fourteen years before the Emancipation, the fact still remains, and is borne out by living evidence. The list of those living in Nashville POPE MISS NELLIE SEAY whose memories carry them back to 1849 and 1863 is not a large one, only three or four, at the most, are familiar with and can talk positively on happenings in a denominational way sixty-four years ago, in fact, but few know really what Baptists were doing fifty years ago. One of the most interesting and conversant persons on what the Missionary Baptists were doing in Tennessee and in Nashville fifty years ago is Mrs. Nellie Seay, who is eighty-two years of age and resides on Filmore street. Mrs. Seay was born a slave in Carthage, Smith County, Tennessee, and was brought to Nashville at about the age of fifteen years. She talked intelligently on the accomplishments intelligently on the accomplishments of the Negro Baptists during the past fifty years. When asked to make some statements as to what the Negro Baptists were doing in this city before the war, their relations to the white people and their standing as compared with other Negro denominations, she was very emphatic in saying, 1st that the Negro Baptists were the first independent and distinctively Negro religious organization to begin worshipping as such in Nashville. Her earliest recollections of a religious congregation among Negroes was that of the Dick Ham Church or congregation that worshipped in a small house in what was then known as Buck's Alley not far from the present site of the Summer Street or South Fifth Avenue Baptist Church's present location. When questioned as to the seniority of the Nielson Merry Church and the Dick Ham Church, Sister Seay states positively: "Old Brother Dick Ham, as he was called by most of the people, was preaching to a congregation and had a well organized church with a large attendance, crowded house, every Sunday night, long before Brother Nelson Merry was baptized. He continued to hold this congregation and to preach to them regularly up to the time of his death. I remember very distinctly that when but a mere girl I used to go to Brother Dick Ham's Church in Buck's Alley every Sunday night. It was in an important part of the city, but not on one of the main streets. Brother Dick Ham would get his slave people around him and preach to them as earnestly and as affectively as any intelligent preacher of today. He was a powerful speaker and was quite an organizer. I do not remember whether Brother Dick Ham was ordained or not, but I do know he did not have the standing with the white people that Brother Nelson Merry gained in later years before the war broke out. Brother Ham was holding regular church services with a large congregation before Brother Merry started his church. I do not know whether he was a free man or a slave, but I know he had liberty to go and as he pleased and thus he must have had some kind of free dom. I think, however, his children were free. Prior to the starting of the Dick Ham Church or the Nelson Merry Church, all of the colored Baptists worshipped in the white church. We usually occupied a seat in the gallery. The First Baptist Church white was located on Summer street in the present building occupied by the German Luther an hurch, between Deadrick and Union streets. Even before we were married, my husband and I were constant visitors at the Dick Ham Church and I am quite sure I was married twelve or fourteen years before the war. Some of the slave owners were very liberal in letting their slaves attend religious worship as many argued there were distinct advantages to the religious influences exercised over them, making them better slaves. This, however, was not the rule of all the slave owners, and it did not mean that passes were not necessary for even those whose owners were liberal. Practically all of the slaves had to get passes or written excuses to be absent, especially on Sunday nights or any other nights, as night services were more largely attended. Everybody was married on Sunday night, while the baptisms usually took place on Saturday." It appears from Sister Seay's well preserved memory that up to this time, the beginning of Brother Dick Ham and Brother Nelson Merry's churches, that the prevailing religion among the Negroes was Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational, but with the advent of the two churches, the Dick Ham Church and the Nelson Merry Church, the Missionary Baptists began to grow among the Negroes and within a few years they became the prevailing denomination. So before the time Brother Nelson Merry was an ordained minister, Baptists had reached the ascendency. Mrs. Nellie Seay was reared as a Presbyterian; she was the youngest of nine children and while she was reared by a Presbyterian family and was compelled to take these children to church and Sunday-school each Sunday, when she professed religion she became a Baptist. And then, too, notwithstanding from her conversation she attended Brother Dick Ham's Church when she united she joined the Nelson Merry congregation. It appears from Mrs. Seay's statement that after these two churches were well organized and under way, the white people advised and encouraged all of their slaves who professed religion to connect themselves with the colored congregations. It is evident that all of the colored people who belonged to any of the white Baptist churches were given their letters or transferred and allowed to unite with the Nelson Merry congregation. Mrs. Seay remembers the ordination of the Rev. Nelson Merry and the amount of comment that was brought not only among the colored but among the whites, as up to this time such a thing had never been known in Nashville—white preachers ordaining a Negro minister. It is therefore supposed that since no record of Dick Ham's ordination has been found and no one living rememberes when he was ordained or where, the question remains open to debate, and while it is clearly evident from three of the oldest living people in the city that his congregation is the older, it is not regarded by those of later years as orthodox. It is stated that a few of the colored people remained with the white churches until after the war and only a few of them knew or took any part in the controversy that arose between the Hard-Shell and Missionary Baptists, Mrs. Seay having no part whatever in it. Sister Seay remembers, too, that in the early sixties there was a colored congregation of Methodists that worshipped somewhere down in Sulphur Spring Bottom. They were known as the African Methodist Church, but in reality it was a part of the Southern Methodist, looked after and cared for by the McKenzie Congregation. A Rev. Mr. Carr, a white preacher, acted as their pastor. When Mrs. Seay was asked as to some of the people who were prominent in church work between 1847 and 1863, she did not hesitate to give such names as Jeff Lytton, Deacon John White, Deacon Daniel Lapsley, Jerry Hope, Sister Grace Buchanan, Sister Winnie Woods and Brother Sam Woods. These last two named persons were very old. Then there were Sister Alie Tribune, Lewis Butler, Mrs. Mille Butler and Mrs. Nellie Seay. It is also learned from Sister Seay that the present church and foundation of the building on Pearl Street so often referred to as the First Baptist Church ever built in Nashville is not the first building erected by the Rev. Nelson Merry. She stated that the first build REME October MOVING Be sure that y has a gas se to the main in Services are point seventy- of the property Delay now w and inconven move.

The people in all ages of the world have looked to the men of God to tell them their duty and when the and that it was only used for seven or eight years, when it became entirely too small, and was torn down and the present structure was erected before the war. She says she remembers it clearly because in the old building they held Sunday-school in a little dug out place until they finally got the building so they could get upstairs. Afterwards when it was seen by Brother Merry that the congregation was growing and gaining some prominence he deceived to move closer in town and purchased the piece of property on which the present St. John A. M. E. Church is located and made the first payment on it; it was found before they went far with this property that it was not large, enough. The property was bought from a man by the name of Sam Watkins. When it became known that the lot was not of sufficient size, this Mr. Sam Watkins was liberal enough to return the first payment and then Rev Merry bargained for the present site of the Spruce Street Baptist Church from a widow woman, whose name Sister Seay does not remember. When asked how the financial condition of the Spruce Street Church was before the war, Sister Seay states that the church was not paid for until after the war was closed and that Brother Jennings was the treasurer during the whole period. Summing it all up, therefore, it is pears that prior to and including 1865, onyl about three hundred Negro Missionary Baptists were to be found in and around Nashville, with two churches, one which it is claimed was not orthodox, existed far back as 1847, adn another purely orthodox and properly organized, coming on the scene in 1853. It is no task, however to trace the organization of the various churches from these two paretn bodies and see the untold good that has been done; the enormous amount of property purchased and the valuation of the same with the magnificent edifices and structures now so prominent in Nashville. FARMINGTON NOTES FARMINGTON NOTES. The revival of Simpson Chaped M. E. Church, which has been going on for ten nights, has exceeded all for many years. Twenty-nine converts up to this writing. Mrs. Lue Allen, of Nashville, Tenn., is doing the preaching. She is cheerfully heard by both saints and sinners, with a crowded house every night. She rendered good service both night and day.

Of Unbroken Progress IS THE RECORD MADE BY Mational Order of the Mosaic Templars of America LOCATED IN Little Rock, Ark. This order was organized in 1882 by J. E. Bush and C. W. Keatts, two Negroes, and has long since passed the experimental stage. HALF MILLION DOLLARS PAID TO WIDOWS AND ORPHANS. The National Order of the Mosaic Templars of America conducts Disability, Endowment and Burial Departments, and through these departments, has paid to widows and orphans and beneficiaries of deceased members the enormous sum of a Half Millions Dollars. SUBSTANTIAL PROOF OF RELIABILITY. Failures and frauds have been so numerous in organizations of this character that the public is naturally excepted. We cite you the following evidence of our reliability, and same may be verified by spending a little time investigating: The order is now erecting a National Temple Building in Little Rock Ark., at a cost of $60,000, the same being erected out of the order's surplus funds, and no extra building tax assessment has been leveled upon the members. This has never been heard of in the history of fraternal orders. This order has never levied an extra tax upon its members to pay off any kind of obligation, and not a single instance can be cited during thirty-two years, where the order has failed to meet promptly its just obligations to the people. In our Endowment department, the ninety-day waiver, which appears in most certificates, has never been taken advantage of, because the order has always had sufficient funds to meet its claims whenever proof of death is made. Our Endowment department is national and has been inspected from time to time by various insurance commissioners. The order has come out of each inspection with flying colors. As we grow older, instead of decreasing, our Endowment surplus is growing, as the following will show: A LESSON IN FIGURES RATES PER YEAR AND BENEFITS PAID Men's Department, $11.75 per year; endowment, $30; sick benefits, $3 per week; burial, $50. Women's Department, $8.75 per year; endowment, $500; sick benefits, $2 per week; burial, $50. Children's Department, $1.85 per year; endowment, $60; sick benefits, $1 per week; burial $20. The above rates include all taxes, local lodge, state and Supreme Grand Lodge. The endowment policies of $200 are grand and payable as follws: Should death occur during the first twelve calendar months. $100; after the first twenty-four calendar months, $200, after the first thirty-six calendar months, $300. LOCAL LODGE DIVISIONS. The order operates in four divisions, and charter fees for organizing new lodges are as follows: Temples for adults males, cost of charter, $15; Chambers for adults females, cost of charter, $10; Palaces for children, cost of charter, $5; Uniform Rank, cost of charter, $5. OPPORTUNITIES FOR ORGANIZERS. The order is now conducting a nation-wide campaign for members and is allowing organizers the most liberal contract ever given by any fraternal order in the world. During the past twenty-four months we have organized 600 new lodges. Some organizers have earned as high as $200 per month. We allow orizizers, under extension plan, to set up local lodges for the price of the charter fee. For instance, an organizer would set up a temple of sixty men at $2 each; that would amount to $120. His charter would cost $15, leaving him a net profit of $105. We are anxious to engage active young men and women in all parts of the United States to organize lodges. Especially are we anxious to secure organizers in Illinois, Indiana, Virginia and West Virginia, Maryland, North and South Carolina, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, New York and Kansas. This offer will not remain open indefinitely, and you had better write today for terms. Address all communications to J. E. BUSH, N.G.S., Box 36 Little Rock, Ark. Wm. Alexander, N.G.M., 504 1-2 W.

The government of South Africa has asked him to spend considerable time in going into every feature of Tuskegee's agricultural, mechanical and academic work and especially to make a study of the correlation of the academic and industrial work as carried on by the officers and teachers of Tuskegee Institute.

Knowing Doctor Washington's acute interest in the whole Liberian situation and of his disinterested services in be- half of the Little Black Republic, and of Mr. Scott's late visit to that country, his visit to Tuskegee Institute was for the purpose, as he expressed it, of securing "pointers on the situation."

Urges That All Nashvillians Attend the State Fair That Day. As the result of a proclamation issued by Mayor Howse Tuesday afternoon, many of the business houses of the city will close for the day of Thursday, October 2, and hundreds of employees and others, who would not otherwise have an opportunity, will attend the State Fair that day. The following is a copy of the Mayor's proclamation which makes the day mentioned a legal holiday throughout the city: "Whereas, the Tennessee State Fair Association has designated and set aside Thursday, October 2, as Nashville Day, and Whereas, It is to the advantage of all the people of Tennessee and especially the people of the city of Nashville, to contribute their full share toward making this day a grand success. "The State Fair is an annual exhibition of the progress of our people and the products of our factories and farms are exhibited there, and in order that all the people of the city of Nashville may have an opportunity to attend the fair, I, Hilary E. Howse, Mayor of the city of Nashville, declare and set aside Thursday, October 2, 1913, a legal holiday and request that our merchants and business men close their places and give their employees the advantages which the State Fair offers. "In testimony whereof, I have here unto set my hand and caused the great seal of the city of Nashville to be affixed on this the 9th day of September, 1913. THE ADDRESS OF DR. WASH INGTON. (Сообщение по теме 1:) pull together in organized capacity. There are at least 3,000,000 of our people who belong to some of these secret and fraternal organizations. We have organized and now sustain 63 banks in various parts of the country, another indication of our ability to work in harness. So much for the past. What about the problems of the future? Many of the strongest and most powerful leaders who are before me taught in this audience must realize as I said a minute ago that the church in an increasing degree has got to concern itself with the social problem that exist in the community where the church is located. Our leaders have got to concern themselves with the problem of teaching our people how to live side by side with the American white man in peace, harmony and friendship. There is no portion of the civilized or uncivilized world today where we can go and not meet a white man, where we con go without living by his side or very near him. I have studied white people in many parts of the world, and I have no hesitation in saying that if I have got to solve the problem of living by the side of any white man, I prefer to take my chance every day in the year by the side of the SSouthern white man. There is an inexplainable, intangible something in the atmosphere of the South which makes the black man and the white man understand each other, and despite all academic and theoretical discussion there is something in the atmosphere of the South which makes the black man and the white man like each other. In some parts of the country there is a good deal of discussion concerning the segregation of the races, but I am not afraid that segregation in the South will ever play any serious part. The average white man, especially in the country districts, does not care to have his black neighbor very far out of calling distance. hThe white man of the North and the white man of the South are making friends with each other, are getting closer together. The Negro has got to imitate their example. When the white man who wore the blue and the white man who wore the gray met upon the field of Gettysburg a few days ago and clasped hands, it meant to say to the Negro that no more would say the white man of North and the white man of the South become enemies and do battle with each other because of the Negro. In my experience with the Southern white man I find that he respects the colored man who talks to him, who tells him in a respectful, kindly and polite way what he wants, tells him about his needs, about his grievances about the wrongs, perpetrated upon him; but the Southern white man does not like to be talked about. This is human nature, and is not peculiar to the Southern white man. In an increasing degree we, representing the aeledreis shdrl wcwfhrsward presenting the leaders of our race, must talk to the Southern white man in our community. Let him know our conditions, and our needs. We must get hold of the officers of the county and of the city in which we live. We must get county judge, the sheriff, the mayor, the members of the city council, the members of the board of education to visit our churches and Sunday-schools, to visit our day schools. We must let these representatives of the white race see our condition and our needs. Everywhere I want to see our people get back to the old habit of inviting the best white ministers into our pulpits. There are dozen of the best white ministers scattered throughout the South who would be glad to occupy our pulpits three or four times a year, and in this way we would keep intouch with the white race in a way that we could scarcely do in a better manner.
