Failures and frauds have been so numerous in organizations of this character that the public Is naturally skeptical. We cite you the following evidences of our reliability, and same may be verified by spending a little time investigating: ‘Tho order is now erecting a Nation- al Temple Euilding in Little Rock, ‘Ark,, at a cost of $60,000, the same eing erected out of the orders sur- plus funds, and no extra building tax er assessment has been lelyed upon the members. This has never. been heard of in the history of fraternal orders. This order has never levied fan extra tax upon its members to pay oft any kind of obligation, and not ‘4 single instance can be cited during {hirty-two years, where the order has failed to meet promptly its just oblt- gations to the people. In our En- dowment department, the ninetyday waiver, which appears in most cert ficates, has never been taken advant- ‘age 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 trom time to time by various insurance commis- sioners, The order has come out of each inspection with flying colors. ‘As we grow older, instead of decreas- ing, oor Endowment surplus 1s grow- ing, as the following will show: A LESSON IN FIGURES.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR ORGAN- IZERS, The order is now conducting a na tion-wide campaign for members an 4s allowing organizers the most libe al contract ever given by any fratrr- nal order in the world. During the past twenty-four months we have or ganized €00 new lodges. Some or- ganizers have earned as high as $200 per month. We allow orantzers, under extension plan, to set up loci! lodges for the price of the charter foe 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 wo: men in all parts of the United States to organize lodges.

Coach Robinson is whipping the boys in line at State Normal and before the season of 1913 closes the boys on the bill will be heard from with Boyd, Davies, Howell and several of last year's team as a nucleus to build around. State Normal is going to spring a surprise this year. The coach is not making any prediction, but is simply sawing wood and saying nothing. The boys are going at their work with a vim and having some splendid material to work with, it may be depended upon that State Normal will be a strong contender for preparatory honors this year, and while not far enough advanced in the sport to go up against the first team of Fisk, it is believed by those who have watched the boys work that they would entertain the Gold and Blue team very creditably. State Normal beat Florence last year, which was considered doing remarkably well, being the first team the school had put in the field. The schedule has not been announced, but some good spirit will be furnished by the State Normal boys. SHELBYVILLE NOTES. Miss Dora B.

He had two brothers, Lewis and Robert Ruffin; one sister whose name was Mildred Ruffin; his wife's name is Jemima. Before her marriage to him her name was Jemima Davis; her owners, John Fleet, of King and Queen County, Va. Dear brothers, if there is any information concerning his whereabouts it will be gladly received by me, as I am more than anxious to find him. Yours for the Master's call, REV. J. R.

I very much hope that there may be a general disposition on the part of our people everywhere to fittingly celebrate this occasion. Some time ago, you may remember, I published the statement which follows with reference to this matter, and beg again to bring it to your attention. What I wrote at that time was to this effect. After consultation with a number of the leading men and women of our race, I have taken upon myself the responsibility of asking our people to devote the week of October 19 to 26 to the celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of our freedom. Something has already been done, however, in several parts of the country, towards carrying into effect the plan already suggested for local celebrations. In order that these various local celebrations may be carried out harmoniously and in such a way that each local celebration will contribute to a national total, the following recommendations are submitted: (1) That October 19-26, 1913, be known as Fiftieth Anniversary Week. (2) That schools, churches and all other societies and organizations in every part of the United States, where there is a considerable number of our people, unite and co-operate for the purpose of holding local celebrations that shall recite our progress in commercial, professional, intellectual moral and religious directions. An effort should be made to secure the strongest and most representative men obtainable as speakers. It is my earnest hope and desire that the above, suggestions be read before the various churches, lodges, and other organizations of our people, to the end that the Fifthth Anniversary Week of Freedom shall be generally observed everywhere. We must depend, of course, upon our newspapers to bring this matter to the attention of the colored people, if any large number of them is to be reached. I very much hope you will heartily co-operate with, and give full publicity to this effort. Sincerely yours, (Signed) Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee Institute, Ala. October 11, 1913. SIP CORPORATION TO OPEN HERE. Vice-President Corbitt in City To Baltimore Bills, Big Eagle Branch Perfect Plans For Bio Branch. Mr. S. R. Corbitt, Vice-President and General Manager of the Sip Manufacturing Company, with headquarters at Memphis, was in Nashville to-day looking after the interests of his company. Mr. Corbitt was a caller at the office of Mr. John H. Callender, local manager of the company. Mr. Corbitt was greatly impressed with the business advantages of Nashville and stated that his company has made plans to open one of its largest offices in this city. Steps to this end are to be taken at once. A number of traveling men will be under Mr. Callender to look after business in this territory. The Sip Bottling Corporation is a company with authorized capital stock of 500,000, which has been organized to handle the output of the Sip Manufacturing Company. The plan is for this corporation to establish 100 plants in Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas and Louisiana.

The Greenwood Park colored fair held at Greenwood Park, Nashville, Tenn., September 25, 26 and 27, 1913, was a delight to all who attended it. The exhibits were excellent. Those of special note were as follows: The embroidery work of Mrs. Laura Davis; the crochet work of Mrs. Josie A. Britt; the punch work of Mrs. Sarah Jones; the plain sewing, Miss Annetta Plus; for hand-painted China, Mrs. Hattie M. Hiyhtower; for battenberg work, Mrs. Frankle H. Pollard; the basketry and drawing of the pupils of Miss Nannie E. Perkins, of Napier School, was the best ever presented of 3-A Grade. The millinery work of Mrs. Mabel Overton was the best ever presented and was an interesting feature of the occasion. The opening being on the 26th, living models were used in the presentation with new line of fall advance winter style. Madam R. H. Lester, chiropody, hair-dressing, hair work, manicuring, facial and scalp massages, was a wonder to all those present, and her demonstrations were of the very best. She also presented a beautiful line of embroidery work, hand paitnig and drawn work. Battenberg and other fancy work. She received the first prize on her work as a whole. The following persons presented beautiful hats of their own make: Misses Prudence G. Petway and Annie M. Jobe and Mrs. Sango. The fair was far better than the committee expected on account of such short notice. The people forgot all about the fair as it was rumored that there would be no fair. The ladies of the Auxiliary certainly deserve credit for their uniring work, trying not to let it be a failure. Embroidery. Sofa pillow tops, Willie Phillips, 1st prize; Fannie Boyd, 2nd prize.

National Negro Doll Company, R. H. BOYD, President, H. A. BOYD, Manager 519 SECOND AVENUE, NORTH For the past few years one of the hardest problems the farmers have contended with was the question of farm labor. During that time there hag been remarkable activity in rail- road ‘building, manufacturing, the lumber industry and mining, ‘Along with this there has been a phenome- nal growth in the sities and towns, all Tequiting labor at prices that were attractive to the laborers on the farms, and induced many of them to leave the farms for public works. Matters drifted along well with them for a time, The weekly and monthly pay days were new and novel to them; they were getting more money than they had been receiving on the farm, and getting it oftener. ‘They just had so many hours to work, whieh during the summer months were shorter than many of them had been putting in on the farm, and for ‘a time many of them felt that they had broken the shackles of a form of bondage. ' Have to Be Prompt. After a time they realized that to insure their pay envelopes having the amounts in them on pay day that they had based their calculations on, they had to get in every day; that they had to be there on time and stay until the whistle sounded for quitting time; that a day lost meant a shoftage in the money they would have to spend. They also began to find out that they had many things to buy that they had never taken in consideration. On the farm they had no house rent to pay, they had no water rent to pay, no fuel to buy, they had their garden, they had pasturage for their cow, they could keep some hogs and some chickens. They began to real- ize when they thought about what their money was being spent for, that they were paying it for things that they had raised at home without any loss of time to them and, most re- markable of all, when they got through’ paying for those things they had ‘leas money clear than they had while working on the farm, Hopelessly in Debt. ‘They found out, too, that when sickness or, bad weather or a shut- down of works caused them to lose time these expenses went on just the same, and if kept up long enough would get them hopelessly in debt. ‘Then the tendency of labor to con: centrate on public works also had a tendency to decrease the price of labor, and the shortage of labor on the farm decreased farm production proportionately and increased the prices they had to pay for the things they must have to live on, resulting in putting many laboring men where it was hard to keep the wolf from the door, + Many would gladly return to the farm if they could. Some of them who thought, when leaving the farm, they were getting out of bondage re- alize now that they made a mistake, that the latter condition is worse than the first and not so easy to get away from. They are behind with . the rent and their grocery man, When they get their pay envelopes they must go for debt and will not go around, ‘but a little must be paid to each ot NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1913. they will not advance for another pay day. To Keep Up Struggle? Now, Mr, Laboring Man, what about it? Do you want to keep up the strug- gle when you know that tne thou- sands of acres of land in Ténnessee are not producing more than one- fourth what they should produce, for want of intelligent labor? ‘At the rate labor has been leaving the farm and congregating on public works, with the stringency of the money market, and the uncertainty re- garding tariff legislation, there is sure to be a falling off demand for labor on public works, Suffering and want will follow unless there Is a re- adjustment of labor conditions, 0 that labor can assist in keeping an equilibrium between production and ‘consumption. While the future ‘of the laboring man on public works is not s0 roseute, Tecan say that at no time inthe his: tory of this country in the pas thave the opportunities for the laboring man on the farm been better than are open to him now, it he is willing to give intelligence ‘and énergy to his work. There are opportunities for him to climb to the top if he is will- ing to work with his head as well as with bis hands. | Friction and Unrest. If this readjustment can be made it will be better for those who em- ploy labor on public works, because there is always friction and unrest when there is an oversupply of labor seeking work. It will be better for the laboring man, whether he remains on public works, or remains on the farm, for with the congestion re- Heved son public works and the short- age supplied on the farms, the com- pensation will be better for the !a- borer. With better compensation he can pay his bills and increase his purchases, thus directly benefiting the business and professional men. So the readjustment of the distribution of labor is a question of vital inter. est to all and one in which all can Jend their aid in helping ‘the laborer to get located where he can make his Tabor worth most to himself and family and at: the same time worth more to the community, in other words, help the laboring man to so re. adjust himself as to be worth most as a citizen of our Commonwealth. Rendjustment Necessary. | While conditions make it necessary ‘for & Teadidatment in the distribution ot labor, and while there is a strong sentiment among many laboring men who left the farm for the public works to return to the farm, it is an opportune time for the farmer to give the question of farm labor serious consideratiom He must know that conditions have changed materially und he cannot handle the question of farm labor in the haphazard way it has been handled in the past. He must remember that nothing given away is valued so much as something bought and paid for. It has been the custom to pay only nominal wages on the farm and give with it house rent, garden, fuel and pasturage for cows and hogs. The re- cipient only counted the wages and used that in comparing what he was receiving with what the laborer on public work was receiving, resulting in dissatisfaction on the part of the laborer that would not have éome about if there had been a clear busi- ness contract—placing a value on everything entering tnto it; thereby making it possible for the price paid for the labor to be more in keeping with what was being paid for labor on public works, Worthy of His Hire. The laborer is worthy of his hire, and should be paid according to his worth. A day's work ought to be measured by results, ‘The laborer should be made to understand that he will be paid for the uso he makes of his head, as well as his hands, in his work. Reward merit, A minimum price must be fixed by the hour, day, week, or month, and then if the laborer makes his serv- fees worth more by Intelligence and energy, reward him according to his worth. If his services do not justify the minimum price, let him go. You ean goon have your force satisfactory and dependable, when you make them > base wae = ; ATTORNEY GREEN F. ANDERSON Lave Dncater: understand that you are going to re- ward merit. I have never had trou: ble with my labor after the weeding ‘out and merit process was established, ‘My men try harder to get along with their work in my absence for a day or week than if I were present. 1 know from actual experience what to expect, and I can reward those who have merited it in my absence. If we will deal fairly and liberaly with our labor, give the individual a chance to prove his worth, and when he has done so, pay hi maccordingly, then we will develop the best there fs in him, as a rule. When we find an exception to the rule, let him pass on and join the army of machine la- borers, who watch the clock and lis- ten for the whistle and have no iater- est in their employer further than the money they get out of him. ——+, HOW THE FARMER CAN MAKE PRACTICAL USE OF THE NEWSPAPER Farm and Fireside, the national farm paper published at Springfield, ©, presents the following in its cur- rent issue: “Most everyone reads and appreet- ates the government weather fore. casts; but how many, especially farmers and poultrymen, ‘realize the value of the weather report, giving, as it does, the temperature and weather conditions of the previous day in all sections of the country? “since the advent of the rural de- livery, all uptodate farmers get ‘newspaper, and its value can be made immeasurably greater by a careful study of the weather report.

On last Tuesday evening the cele- bration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation by the citizens of Min- nesota under the auspices of The Ap- peal, was held with much eclat. There was a large crowd and everything was just as grand as grand could be. J. Q. Adams offered a motion that a committee of seven be appointed to draft a resolution representing the sentiments of* the audience. The committee was on motion increased to nine which the chairman appoint- ed as follows: W. R. Morris, L. Lovis Ervin, W. T. Francis, Chas. 8. Smith, Rev. G. W. Camp, W. F. ‘T. Chand: Jer, J. Q. Adams, Mrs. J. R. White, Mrs, Valdo Turner, The committee reported the follow- ing resolutions which were unant- mously adopted by a rising vote: | Be it resolved that __We, the Afro-American citizens of ‘Minnesota assembled at the Emanci- ipation Celebration at St, Paul, Sept. |30, 1913, under the auspices of THE 'APPEAL, do hereby co-operate with the Afro-Americans of this entire country and do earnestly protest against the unnecessary —discrimina tion and unjust segregation in the departments of the government at Washington, D. C, | And be it further | Resolved, That we also earnestly protest against all proposed legisla tion and existing laws effecting the civil rights of the Afro-Americans in this country, and we invoke the aid of the administration at Washington \in our behalf. We especially commend the efforts of our senator, Hon. Moses E. Clapp of Minnesota, for his “Resolution o! Inquiry” in the Senate, investigating the discrimination in the department: at the nation’s capitol, and we sin lcerely thank him for his promise 0 jcontinued support to secure out ‘rights as citizens. HUNTING THE HIPPOTAMUS. As hippopotamus hunters the Shul ‘las of the Sobat region, North Africa, ean alone. A native hippo hunt Is an exciting and dangerous sport. The hunters are in dugout canoes: two o” three paddle while one manages the harpoon or barbed spear, to which i attached a stout rope and a float of ambatch. When the hippo comes tc ‘the surface to breathe, an attemp! Ig made to steal upon him with the harpoon; when this ix accomplished the hunters make a hasty tetreal from the enraged beast, and in turn engage his attention while attempts are made to spear him by those in other canoes, When severely wound eda hippopotamus goes ashore to rest or to die, and not to attack its assailants, ag has been so often re ported. The native hunters wait for this and when the animal goes up out of the water a volley of spears is thrown into it, and slowly the huge beast bleeds to death, The hunters do not always escape, Some- times the life or a limb of one of them is sacrificed to their daring. The hide of the hippopotamus is cut into strips and dried to be sold to Arab traders who in turn sell it to. the whip-makers of Omdurman and Egypt. Certain portions of the hide are much prized ag shields, The flesh is cut into long, narrow strips and dried in the sun; its taste resembles that of coarse beef—Southern Work inne. RIGHTS OF AFRICAN WOMEN. |. CErom the Southern: Wr OFSiBan.) Although woman in Africa Is re garded as property she has certain rights which are seldom infringed upon, and of these the most impor- tant is her right to marry whom she pleases, or rather to refuse to marry one who does not please her. There are two grim reasons for this. First, women married against their wills have been known to commit suicide Second, women married against their wills have murdered their unloved husbands, usually strangling them when asleep. And to these reasons may be added the fear of marital un: faithfuness. So, in forcing oneselt upon one of these women, there 1s Hinbility to a great Joss—the loss of valuable property or of no less highly prized life. ‘The young girls are well cared for. partly that they may be comely and draw many suitors, Every girl will tell you frankly that she wishes to marry and have a good husband and children, Every father is anxfous to have his daughters mar ry well. To secure a wife one must pay a dowry in cattle to the father, or, should the father be dead, to the nearest male relative, If a girl is inch sought after, her father natu rally asks a larger dowry. When the man has paid part of the dowry the father may give consent to a provi sfonal marriage and permit the cow: ple to live together. Should the hus band be too slow in paying the te mainder of the dowry his wife fs tals en from him, When a woman proves barren she is usually returned to her home and the dowry reclaimed. Trix} ‘marriages are common and can be svt acide by elther party. Their princi- pal objects in marriage are mutual helpfulness and the perpetuation of tie-vate.

A large attendance was present at the meeting which was presided over by Rev. Preston Taylor, the Chairman. The routine of business was conducted and the reports showed that the order is in a prosperous condition, both financially and numerically. A deep interest was manifested in the proposed Christmas Tree that is to be given for the poor and unfortunate children. A committee was appointed with a chairman to take up the matter and make a systematic campaign for funds. A neat sum was put in the hands of the committee as a nucleus around which to build and the indications are that many little hearts will be made glad by the Odd Fellows next Christmas.

No product that emanates from Nashville has attracted more widespread attention than the Negro dolls, the creation of the National Negro Doll Company, one of the enterprising, wide-awake concerns of this city. Nashville has enjoyed a distinction that no similar city in the United States can boast of. Aside from being the home of some of the largest educational centers in the world, it has a geographical location unexcelled. It is the center of religious thought and activity; it is the hardwood center of the United States and it is the headquarters of the National Negro Doll Company. The president and manager of the company in a statement this week declared; "We have just completed the installation of a complete outfit of dolls that for beauty cannot be excelled. There are ten different sizes ranging from 12 inches, the smallest one upon the market and the "baby doll," to one measuring three feet in height. The features, the hair and the general appearances are at once commended in that they represent more thoroughly the Negro of today than any toy that has ever been offered. Letters are coming in daily from commercial centers throughout the United States making arrangements for a complete line of these toys for the ensuing season. They have shipped them to South America, Central America, West Indies Islands, Africa, Canada, Philippine Islands and to every part of the United States. One of the largest concerns in the west declared this summer that the Negro doll had revolutionized the commercial spirit of the Negroes of his city and that the parents were broad in their assertions that nothing had ever come within the borders of their city that so delighted and that was more generally received than this Negro doll. The further announcement that more precaution and care in the shipment of the dolls would be exercised this year, thus insuring ready dispatch and faster transportation is greeted with much satisfaction. Dolls can now be sent by Parcel Post and they can be insured so that when they are broken or damaged in the shipment, damages can be sustained sufficient in size to reimburse the consignee. Arrangements have been made with the largest express companies wherein every agent will have the proper respect for the label on the box of a Negro doll. "Nothing is more enjoyable in the home," declared one of the leading mea of the country, "than to see the Negroes fondle and caress an image representing themselves."

The present indications point to a most successful "booster" trip to J. J.

A tremendous amount of advertising matter concerning Nashville and "home products" will be distributed by the party while on the tour, and above all the advertising "noise" has been planned and will be executed in such an intelligent and creditable manner that nothing but the highest praise and commendation can be given these young men who are representing their race so well in a commercial way. Nashville manufacturers have provided literature for the "boosters" and numerous have also arranged to have their wares represented. The Nashville Industrial Bureau, the Negro Board of Trade and many other enterprises have given aid and encouragement. Special editions to boost Nashville and her opportunities will be gotten out by the newspapers and all of this has served to make the entire city much interested in the trip to be made by the young men and has won for them admission and sympathy from all sources.

ENDORSES CADETS. Enthusiasm was paramount last Sunday afternoon in the Sunday-School Union which was held at the Second Baptist Church, corner Stevens and Deluge streets. It oozed out the windows, it came through the doors, it went over the transoms, and all on account of the unanimous endorsement of the Boy Cadet movement recently submitted in detail to the great National Baptist Convention that was in session in this city. Prior to this, however, it had received its momentum and began to gather on strength at the Sunday-School Congress held in Muskogee. But winding up and assuming large proportions was not permanent until the great body of Baptists, who observed the Fifty Years of Freedom in a religious jubilee, put its stamp of approval upon the movement that is predicted by the leaders of the Baptists throughout the country to be come even more gigantic than their well-regulated and timely Metoka and Galeda Classes. The Boy Cadets will be the shortest and most popular term used by this organization. The real name, however, is "National Baptist A. F. Cadets," but since the regular name is lengthy, it was agreed that the organization be known as the A. F. Cadets. Principal among the speakers. DR. J. T. PHILLIPS, Vice President. DR. J. T. PHILLIPS, Vice President. Sunday afternoon, and the man who put the ginger into the whole occasion, was the Rev. R. H. Boyd, director of the Supday-School Congress, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, Secretary of the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, and the father of so many ideas that have developed into nation-wide movements among the Baptists. It is said that as far back as 1880 he was contending with the Texas Baptists that they should be sponsors to some movement whereby his denomination could really point to advancements, progress and denominational greatness, and Texas has stood solidly behind him in giving support to whatever he has advocated since he has been at the head of the Publishing plant of his denomination. It was in 1896 at the St. Louis session of their National Baptist Convention that he was chosen their standard bearer to put into execution and to bring tangibly before the people a publishing plant. The people in Nashville remember well the warm context waged over the term "Negro Baptist" and the amount of enthusiasm injected into the publishing project as a result of the activities of some people in their denomination. This same Dr. Boyd came upon the scene advocating "Negro dolls for Negro children." This took place at Lexington, Ky., and when the Convention in session unanimously endorsed the movement, the associated wires and news gatherers throughout the civilized world told the story in simple but far-reaching language, that the Negroes had decided to give their children Negro dolls. The idea was a capital one and again demonstrated the leadership to be found in the man within this city. Following this came the great Sunday-School Congress Movement. Its story of success and the manifold blessings brought to the Negro Baptists as a result of this modern Sunday-school movement need not be discussed. The Boy Cadet Movement, as was explained last Sunday to the organization that represents the fifty odd Baptist Sunday-schools of Nashville, is no doubt calculated to go even further. Dr. Boyd says that every boy on the streets of the large cities is to be uniformed. He has already arranged for these uniforms with some of the largest factories throughout the country. They will have blouses, trousers, hats and life and drum corps. There is already in course of preparation a manual of tactics for these Boy Cadets. In addition to this the Publishing Board at its meeting. Tuesday, elected a committee to have the oversight of the entire work of this new organization. The committee is composed of Dr. W. H. Crawford and Rev D. A. Scott, D. D., of Austin, Texas, Mr. W. R. Russell, of Atlanta, Ga. No. 42. "The Sunday-School and Its Place in the Community" was the subject of discussion at the Sunday-School Union last Sunday afternoon at the Second Baptist Church, of which the Rev. G. B. Taylor is pastor. The attendance was unusually large. Chairman Lewis expressed much satisfaction over the large number of Sunday-schools represented, after he had called the meeting to order. Prominent among those who spoke was Miss L. E. Bushnell, editor of Hope, who said, "If the Sunday-school would take its rightful and proper place in the community, irrespective of where that community is, whether in the metropolitan cities or the cross-road villages, it must give to that community prepared teachers who can interest the boys and girls. It must give to the community manhood and womanhood in consecrated religious workers that are beyond the present general average. It must be a little leaven in the loaf, just as Christ intended that it should be." Mr. Doakes Washington, a member of the Metoka Class of Mt. Olive Sunday-School, in speaking on the subject declared: "From time immemorial, before the morning stars sang together, the plan of the Sunday-school as an asset to the community has been laid, that when Methuselah held his first Bible school and when Robert Ralkes challenged the admiration of the civilized world with his Sunday-school, he was but bringing it to its rightful place in the community." Mr. Washington's well prepared address made a deep and lasting impression upon the hearers. By unanimous consent the remainder of the evening was given to Mrs. M. E. Peterson, the Secretary of the Temperance Department of the National Baptist Convention, who gave an excellent talk on the evils brought about through strong drink and intemperate living. Chairman Lewis announced that the next Sunday-School Union would be held with the Pleasant Green Baptist Church, of Jefferson street, the second Sunday in November, but that the Program Committee would meet with the Mt. Olive Church at four o'clock on the fourth Sunday afternoon of this month. WEST TENN. COLORED AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL SpeCIAL to the globe. Jackson, Tenn., Oct. 7.—It was marked as a great event in Jackson from the fact that the fourth annual foir was held. This indeed was the greatest grandest, biggest and best fair ever held here and in fact an equal to any in the state in many respects. Thousands of people throughed the grounds everyday. On Saturday the crowd numbered about ten thousand. The exhibits were excellent, the floral and art departments, certainly gave credit to our work, also did the fruit departments. M. L. the specimen of chickens and other, fowls, vegetables and farm products were on exhibition. The races were above the average, all the stock belonging to our people. There were plenty of stands all which were entirely open and sanitary, attractive in appearance, and kept clean. A balloon ascension was had in the afternoon. The grounds are located on South Royal street, near South Royal Street Park. At night it was a beautiful sight, splendidly lighted with clusters and colored lights. The fair was under the general auspices of S. M. Diggs, President; A. Long, Vice President; J. W. Lane and J. W. Banks, Secretaries. The Globe representative was treated with much hospitality. Our friend J. W. Lane took delight in carrying us through all the departments, and giving us much valuable information. Our people are certainly "Rising" in farming, trades, arts, dairying, fruit raiding, stock raising, and other things that go to make up a substantial and useful people. These facts are surprisingly brought out at our fairs. Our people should be encouraged to bring forth their best and put on exhibition. It will encourage and inspire others. On investigating the secretaries early Saturday night it was found that the gate receipts at twenty-five cents per head had amounted to $1,685.00 for the four days, Jackson has a good and progressive people. We want more of them to read the Globe. We would be glad at any time to speak a word for them. Rev. Wm. Harvey on Shannon St. near P. O. is one of our local agents, see him. Rev. Elbert W. Moore, D. D., Philadelphia, Pa.; Rev. Wm. Hicks, Unfortontown, Ala., and H. A. Boyd, Nashville, Tenn. These five are to work in conjunction with the National Baptist, Publishing Board through the Sunday-School Congress Movement and by the time the next session of the Sunday-School Congress meets it is expected that five hundred uniformed cadets will march to new music arranged for them, dispensed by the National Baptist Brass Band. One battalion of this organization is already in existence in Texas, a strong company at Atlanta, and an excellent following in Philadelphia, Pa. It was stated that this committee would in all probability meet in Nashville in the early spring to make arrangements or further plans for carrying out this movement.
