Rousing 8:00 0 EMPLOYEES AN- NUAL DINNER DR. AND MRS. R. H. BOYD HOST AND HOSTESS New Year's Day Enjoyed--Token Presended Dr. R. H. Boyd-Everybody Happy A New Year's Dinner by Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd to the Board members and employees of the National Baptist Publishing Board went down in history last Monday when, according to, the employees and Board members dined with the secretary of the Board. Arrangements which are generally made prior to the ushering in of the new year for this memorable occasion, were not lacking this time. A caterer was employed to prepare a menu to suit the appetites of the large number of folks at work. The announcement was made a week before of the approaching event, and each employee was urged to be present for the occasion. So on Monday morning the entire force with the exception of fifteen or twenty who were away on special leave, were on hand and at the chapel exercises it was announced that dinner would be served between one and two o'clock. There was no stopping at the noon hour, everybody worked on. All were jolly, all were wishing each other a Happy New Year. At one o'clock the National Baptist Band struck up a lively air and for twenty minutes they dispensed choice maltail. Then there was a lull, there was a period in which none knew what was coming next. The chapel where the services are usually held, was made into a spacious dining room, tables were constructed, white linen table cloths, napkins, silverware and table decorations were provided. The caterer and his assistants were busy, while the force at the Pub was stationed from the janitor to the Secretary, waited for them. At two clock the bell sounded, the band played a beautiful air and the long line of employees marched in and were stationed around the tables, Rev. J. C. Fields D. D., a member of the Publishing Board, pronounced grace and the following menu was served: Mashed Sweet Potatoes with raisins Peas Combination Salad Polls Ice Cream Cakes Fruit Coffee Just before the last course was served, Rev. J. A. Sharp, Superintendent of Teacher Training, who has just returned to Nashville for this occasion was introduced and made an address, at the close of which he presented to Dr. Boyd in behalf of the employees of the Publishing Board a New Year's Token. The employees then dispersed to their several homes. MRS. FLETCHER ENTERTAINS. Mrs. Jim Fletcher was the hostess last Saturday of a handsomely appointed luncheon given at her country home, Woody Crest, in honor of Dr. and Mrs. J. H. Bell of Texas and Miss Otta Cockrill of Chicago. Those present, Misses Mary and Parthenia Page, Miss Willie Cockrill, Dr. and Mr. Bell, Miss Otto Cockrill, Drs. Bell, Ramsey, Shapson, Mr. Jones and Mr. Hill. An elaborate menu was served and the affair will rank as one of the most interesting of the many delightful affairs given this Christmas season. MRS. GEORGIA DEMOSS ENTERTAINED THE NORTH POLE LIT FRARY CLUB The North Pole Literary Club met at the home of Mrs. Gettia Demoss or 1016 Jackson street. The meeting was opened by Mr. James Akin, vice president and a song was led by Mrs. John Maddix, the Chaplain, after which business of importance was transacted. Mr. B. H. January, president, was absent at the beginning of the meeting, but on his arrival he took charge of the meeting in which he made an encouraging report on the widow's coal and campaign, after which Mr. John Maddix, chairman of the membership, committee, made his report which added six new members to the club, and also Mr. E. Whitman of After-American Club, made an interesting talk in organ salon. Then Mrs. Demoss opened the doors of his dining room in which she seated an elaborate three course menu, or which the club adjourned to at next meeting night at Mrs. carson's home on 8th Avenue, North. NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. A VERY TIMELY ADDRESS WAS MADE TO STUDENTS Punctuality, Accuracy and Honor Discussed--Way of Honor Open to All-- Drama Rendered Punctuality, Accuracy and Honor, were the three traits of character emphasized by Dr. R. H. Boyd in an eloquent address to the Faculty and Students of the Pearl High School at their regular monthly lecture on Friday, December 15th. It was a source of genuine delight for the principal, teachers and pupils to greet the speaker, and the love, esteem and respect with which he is regarded were clearly shown by the great demonstration that was accorded him when he arose to make his address. Dr. Boyd has spoken on many different occasions, in various cities throughout the country, both national and international social commercial and religious subjects, but he never spoke to better advantage or ever had a more appreciative audience. His address was illustrated throughout by facts drawn from his wide, personal experience, which seemed to drive home and fix in the memory of his hearers the points that he was demonstrating. He possessed a fund of knowledge, accumulated by age, experience, personal contact with great men, and extensive travel through many landmarks that seemed alien to him, and known that he has not only traveled all over the United States and Canada, but also through England and Continental Europe. After congratulating the pupils on their opportunities to acquire an education and reminding them of the ability and rare mental qualifications of their principal and faculty, he urged the students to use every spare moment in self-improvement. He paid the Latin teacher, Miss Lena Jackson, the principal and said that he had frequently referred to her teaching Latin without a book at many schools where he had spoken. Punctuality, he said, $l_8$ on the of the most important traits of character that any young man or woman can possess. Punctuality is needed in the prosecution of any sort of business or in the successful management of any sort of organization, whether home, church, school, city, state or National Government. I want you, children, to be punctual in all of your engagements. One great writer has said that "time is money." If you take a walk you might well take his money. I suppose there are 240 children on this floor. Suppose I had arrived here five minutes late. There would have been a total of 1200 minutes or 20 hours lost. Estimating the principal's time at a dollar an hour, there would be a loss of $2,000 on him alone. Time may be divided into three classes. 1st. Before time, 2nd. On time, and 3rd. Behind time. The best of these is the second—On time. To be on time, to discharge your duties promptly, to save your friends disappointment, sometimes requires judgement and the exercise of discretion. Make no promises that you cannot fulfill time. Some friends think you can be transacted in one hour may require two hours. You must learn to prepare for accidents and unexpected emergencies. Remember, Life is short, every minute is precious and that time is money. "Accuracy is" another important trait of character. The habit of being precise and exact in all you do is a habit worth striving after. It contributes more to success, in life than any other quality except honesty. It is an attainment, however, that requires long years of careful training. You must learn, while here in school, to do the little things well, permitting nothing to escape your attention. Accuracy means that a task has been done in strict accordance with the rules. Do not acquire the habit of doing your work in a slovenly way. There is a great difference between a job well done and a job well done, have you ever graduated of the graduate of this school in my employ at the Publishing House who are known for the excellence of their work. Time will not permit me to mention all of them, but I will mention Mr. Ernest McGulte, Miss Eleanor Buttle and Mr. W. H. Franklin. There are many others who learned, while students here at Pearl High School, to do their work in a first-class, painstaking manner. Pearl High School, I regard as a great factory, where boys and girls NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1917. The Southwest Little Rock and Arkansas Conferences are trained to precision, accuracy and excellence in their work. I know that sometimes you may feel that your lessons are too hard, that your teachers are too severe and unsympathetic. But I want you to stick to your purpose and "get there." If you will follow their advice you will come out a finished product. "The last quality I wish to bring to your attention is Honor. The way to be honored is to be good. I have heard the Professors say that the ancient Romans worshipped virtue and honor as gods. I have been told that they built two temples, one to Virtue and one to Honor. The temples were so arranged that none could enter into the temple of Honor without passing through the temple of Virtue. When I was in Europe it was my pleasure to visit the ruins of the Coliseum and view the remains of the temples on the Acropolis at Athens. I heard while there that the Athenians once raised a noble statue to the memory of Aesop and then faced a slave on a desolate island, each time that the way to honor was open to all. In our elusion, boys and girls, I wish to leave this thought with you, that to $b_0$ good is to be great and that there is no true glory, no true greatness without honor." At the conclusion of the address, Dr. Boyd was given an ovation, a unanimous vote of thanks was tenured him and an invitation to be come the annual Christmas speaker at this popular public institution. ```markdown ``` The Christmas drama given by the S.A. pupils under the leadership of Miss Eva Murrell was a decided success. For many years past, Miss Murrell has assumed the responsibility of furnishing the Christmas entertainment with her class. "In Want of a Servant" was beautifully presented by Misses Jennie Boyd, Queenie Otterton, Agatha Peaks, Mattie Jones, Loretta Parker, Frank Jones and Frank Williams. The following teachers sent messages to Old Santa Claus to remember their children with some small token, to bring them cheer, happiness and sunshine at this glad Christmas season—no child in the school was The South Roo The first session of of the Southwest Arkansas Annual Conference of the C. M. E. Church passed into history at Magnolia, Ark., on Sunday night, December 3, 1916. This Conference was organized as many of your readers will remember, last fall at the sitting of the Little Rock and Arkansas Conferences. But during this session no one could tell the difference between the attendance at this conference and the Little Rock Conference before the division. This Conference is made up of some of your readers from Southwest Arkansas. The men are all friendly and kind. They are also hustling and successful pastors. There is no better set of laymen in any part of the state than can be found here in the eboudes of the Southwest Conference. The reports were all good. The Educational and Mission assessments were full to the running over point. Reports showed that all the pastors were well paid and they all brought full reports to the Conference. in a special collection for Education on Saturday during the conference $378 dollars was raised. Rev. C. I. Bullock was elected Chief Secretary and the Rev. W, S. Williamson and C. L. Lewis assistants. The Rev. W. Conway Smith was chosen as press reporter. Dr. R. S. Stout, the big Church Extension man, a man that is loved by all the ministers and laymen of the state of Arkansas and members of the Southwest Conference after the division, which was hailed with much gladness by the whole Southwest Conference. The Southwest Conference honors Dr. Stout. They are watching his future with ready and anxious actions. Dr. Stout is a worthy man. Wm. Cato and J. W. Jones were transferred to the Louisiana Conference. The Louisianaians may feel proud of these two sons of Arkansas. We recommend Dr. Wm. White, who was transferred to Texas and stationed at Austin, as a strong and successful pastor. The work intrusted to his care will be safe in his hands. We can say the sam. of J. E. McDade and C. L. Lewis. Dr. G. L. Tyus and Wm. Perkins were transferred to the Arkansas Conference. We recommend them to the Arkansas as men of trust. Rev. E. N. Nichols went to Hope as DR. AND MRS. G. W. HUBBARD HIGHLY HONORED BY CITIZENS OF NASHVILLE While quietly celebrating the forty-seventh Anniversary of their marriage on Sunday evening, December 24th. Dr. and Mrs. Hubbard were aroused by the presence of a surprise party formed by citizens of Nashville and members of the faculty who had come to do them honor upon the occasion. So far as president and Mrs. Hubbard were concerned the affair was absolutely a voluntary one and they were pleasantly surprised when the numerous lovely appropriate and appreciable tokens and flowers were presented them in honor of this occasion. One of the other most interesting features of the occasion was the presentation of a beautiful bouquet to Mrs. Hubbard by the nurses of the G. W. Hubbard Hospital. Dr. and Mrs. Hubbard both made timely talks, very appropriate for the occasion. Hon. J. C. Napier also made a very timely and appropriate address. The following persons were present: Bishop and Mrs. I. B. Scott, President E. A. white of Walden University and Miss V. Moore of forgotten, each receiving candy or oranges—Dr. F. G. Smith, the principal, remembered the boys and girls' Glee Clubs and all the pupils of the High School; Mr. R. S. Harris Miss Eva Murrell on the 2nd floor; and Messrs. Randals and Irvine, and Misses Banks, Davis, and Dickerson on the first floor—all gave presents to the children of their classes. GET wise!

Reed of Hot Springs as Chief Secretary, J. W. Nichols, the church builder, and G. S. Smith as the assistant Secretaries, and the Rev. W. C. Smith as press reporter. This conference was largely attended. Full reports were read from nearly all of the pastors. This conference has some truly red-blooded men in it. All the Presiding Elders had their work well in hand and their reports came as clock to shoulder with the pastors in giving war. The laymen stood shoulder money to aid the State Educational work. The Little Rock Conference is a conference of the first magnitude. The transferees who came to the Little Rock conference on rest assured that they are among a friendly set of Christian ministers, and this applies to either of the conferences. In a special collection for Education on Saturday they raised $291.00. This Conference closed on Sunday night, December 10, and goes on record as one of the best sessions in the history of its organization. Rev. W. S. Davis, Presiding Elder of the North Little Rock District, led the conference. Dr. J. A. Bray, the general secretary of Education; Dr. A. R.

Augusta, Ga., Dec. 27, 1916.—My Dear Mr. Boyd: In the haste of the holiday rush, I cannot forget the pleasure it gives me to send this small word of congratulation upon the Christmas edition of the Nash- ville Globe. I was glad to see at last in a colored newspaper a rogue- grave section. The whole thing was well done and altogether praiseworthy. It is enterprise with a capital "E." May God bless you and your associates in the new year and enable you to surpass your old record which is already the highest yet attained by Negro newspapers in the United States. Faithfully yours, Silas X. Floyd. DR. C. V. ROMAN DELIVERS LAY SERMON AT ST. PAUL LAST SUNDAY. Before an overflowing congregation at St. Paul A. M. E. Church Dr. C. V. Roman, teacher of Sunday School Class No. 5, delivered an unusually strong and inspiring lay sermon on "Moral Ballast and Spiritual Moment" last Sunday. He compared life as to a journey on the sea and made an unusually favorable impression. The Bible Class now numbers 151 members and each Sunday visitors are in evidence. Dr. Simpson was recent visitor. Bishop Tyre is also a frequent visitor. Pine Bluff; H. Cooper to Argenta, and E. D. Hill to Fort Smith. Dr. I. P. Norman goes to the Little Rock District; W. S. Davis, North Little Rock District; Wm. Hearnton to the Fort Smith District and John Brown to the Pine Bluff District. Dr. I. P.

Davis is a steady watchman and a commanding general of the first water. Dr. G. H. Harlee was transferred to the West Texas Conference and stationed at oak Cleft. We say to West Texas an office although Dr. Harlee returns to his home conference, we want to give him up. Dr. Harlee was loved by the entire membership of the Little Rock Conference and the state of Arkansas so far as our church is concerned. He was a pleasant and helpful asset to this conference. We thank the West Texas ans for the use and service of this good man for the past two years. J. B. Byrd was transferred to the South west Arkansas Conference and stationed at (Tollett. Prof. Byrd goes well recommended from this conference. Rev. E. J. Jones goes well recommended from this conference to the Southwest Conference. He was stationed at Camden. The Arkansas Conference.

Y., HOST Elaborate Affair--Program by Ladies in Waiting--Misses K. A. Boyd, M. L. Boyd and E. A. Battle The Round Robin Dinner given at the Carnation Club Wednesday evening at 7 o'clock, with Mr. C. A. Dickson, of Buffalo, N. Y., as host, was pronounced the most classy event in the way of a dinner that has been witnessed in Nashville. While the assertion seems broad, the face of the fact that Nashville is the place where big things are pulled off, Nashville the home of presidents, Nashville the center of much activity, but when the details of the dinner shall have been made known, there would seem to be nothing left except the plain administration of the event it was an event of "The first and the best." The dinner was tendered to Drs. J. H. Hale, C. V. Roman, A. M. Townsend, R. H. Boyd, Preston Taylor, J. B. Singleton, Messrs. J. C. MAPER, W. H. McGavock, H. A. Boyd and J. Grant. It began at 7 o'clock promptly and continued throughout num. 11:30, consisting of fourteen courses. A more elaborate menu has never been read or served in this city. The decorations added to the dinner which was in every way what its name it applied, a "Round Robin" affair. The host announced at 7 o'clock, when the one dozen men gathered around the table, that it was to be an evening of enjoyment, and that all cares of the profession, the ministry or of the politician, with those of the business men were to be relegated to the regions MR. C. A. DICKSON, Of Buffalo, New York, who is visit- ing in Nashville and who was the host at the Round Robin Dinner at the Carnation Club. of the unknown, and that the entire evening was to be given to a real dinner. There was a specially prepared menu with an artistically written card at each plate, the men present were to find their own places. The printed menu, with the emblem of the club, tied with pink ribbon, consisted of six pages. There was a title page on which appeared the name "Carnation Club of Nashville, Teen." On another page was contained the list of the guests, with the name of the host; on another was the menu, on another was space for autographs, and on the last were the names of the "ladies in waitings." Upon the autograph page the host wrote his name on the first line; immediately following this was the name of the party, occupying the space, and the menu was passed to each person at the table who attached his signature. The night was spent in conversation and given materially to eatables. After each course was served there was a general movement around the table, so that after they had moved eleven times each man present had eaten at a different place, and each present had occupied the post of honor at the light hand side of the host, thus passing around the table and finishing the dinner at the place where they began. The elaborate decorations in the coacous dining room, which was brilliantly, lighted, the three beautiful ladies in waiting who were to serve at this sumptuous occasion, the silverware, cut glass, the shining dishes, the splendid white and pink cerminations, with the magnificent NUMBER 1 .. Night ISS IT. GOOD-FELLOW- SHIP MEETING CITIZENS PERFECT TEMPORARY OR- GANIZATION New Era Predicted--Greater Nashville's Benefit--Prominent Men Present--Dainty Repast Served Hundreds of Nashville's representative citizens responded to a call for a mutual conference in the interest of the betterment of the Negroes of Nashville last Friday night, December 29th. The conference was held at the residence of Rev. Preston Taylor at Greenwood Park, and it has been proclaimed by many as the most representative gathering of citizens for the interest of the Nashville people that has ever been held. While there was quite a number who were not present, they being detained on account of speca meetings, then phoned their approval of whatever advanced steps might be taken for the perfection of an organization for any improvements that mean better conditions, better citizenship, a closer relation between all people and a thing that tends for civic improvement. The beautiful spacious home of Rev. Preston Taylor was老和 decorated for the occasion. Mrs Taylor had made every preparation for the entertainment of the large number of guests. They began to arrive about 7:30. Between 7:30 and 8:00 general conversation was indulged in. Finally the Rev. Dr. Taylor, in brief the object for summoning the men of affairs this city to his home. "Before the old year dies and before the new year is ushered in, it is the desire of our people. I am sure, to do what they can in their humble way for the betterment of each other, and to do this individually as well as collectively. I am sure we are doing individually our respective parts, but collectively we are not working in union or in harmony in matters of vital importance to our people. I therefore ask that during the course of the evening we at least discuss the things that are germane to our future welfare as a people." In closing his remarks the Rev. Dr. Taylor introduced a number of speakers, he himself acting as master of ceremonies. Brilliant and inspiring talks were made Hon. J. C. Napier spoken on the occasion. Rev. Henry Allen Boyd spoke on "The purchase of the Duncan Hotel for the Young Men's Christian Association, and what it meant to the Negro Citizens." There were a number of other speakers, among whom were Mr. B. J. Carr, Ira T. Bryant, D. W. Crutcher, Dr. J. C. Caldwell Bishop I. B. Scott, Dr. M. E. Ford. Attorney J. W. Grant, Dr. J. L. Leach, Dr. R. H. Boyd, Mr. Wm. Saunders. While these speeches were being made and while enthusiasm was at its height, Mrs. Preston Taylor with a coterie of young ladies assisting her served a delightful repast consisting of chicken saud, hot roils, sandwiches, ice cream and assorted cakes. While this repast was being enjoyed, and immediately following the various speeches a motion was made that a committee of fifteen be named, looking forward to forming an organization and giving it the proper name whose object would be to look after the welfare in every particular of the Negro citizens of Nashville. The following committee was named by the house: J. C. Napier, B. J. Carr, I. B. Scott, Jr. T. Bryant, H. A. Boyd, T. Clay Moore, J. A. Lester, C. V. Roman. The committee met immediately and perfected a temporary organization naming J. C. Naper as chairman, C. V. Roman-as vice-chairman, Ira T. Bryant as secretary. The committee then decided to hold their meeting in the director's room of the One Cent Savings Bank at an early date, then to make it final announcement. After this the benediction was pronounced and the men left feeling that the old year which had dragged itself along, filled with many incidents relative to the work of the Negroes, was about to close on one of the best steps that had been taken by the citizens for a number of years. Many predict that it was the beginning of a new era for the future development of the Negroes of Greater Nashville. MRS. R. H. MASON IN CITY. Mrs. Richard Mason of 332 Vern Avenue, Chicago, Ill., is in the city writing relatives and friends. Mrs. Mason was formerly a Nashville girl, before her marriage she was connected with the A. M. E. Publishing House and was one of Nashville's so young women. Mrs. Mason was a Lula Grant. THE WORST ENEMY OF CHILDHOOD The Common Cold is the Most Widespread Disease of Children IT SHOULD BE FEARED Not Because of 'Itself, But the Things That Follow It. The common "cold" is the most widespread disease of childhood. It is to be feared—not on account of itself, but on account of the things that follow it. Nestly all of the diseases of childhood begin with a cold. That is to say, the cold weakens vitality of the child and makes it more susceptible to the attacks of germs. The cold should be stopped at once, and the best thing to us$_{e}$ is Lung-Vita. A few does of this medicine will break up the most severe cold. Mr. J. S. Culley, who works for the Methodist Publishing House, on Broadway, has the following to say about the medicine: "My son-in-law suffered with a cough for three or four months and could get nothing that helped him until he used Lung-Vita. That cured him, and for colds and a l grippe I can recommend it as a medicine without an equal. All who have the $_{e}$ grippe or a cold should get a bottle of Lung-Vita." Lung-Vita is sold by all druggists and dealers. (Adv.)

A large cradle, beautifully decorated with college colors and the national emblem, was suspended between two columns in the chapel, surrounded by a mound of other decorations, was filled with presents, while the two cedar trees on the platform, were heavily laden with special gifts from the faculty, to all the students. A short social was held after the distribution of the presents, and a number of the students, chaperoned by the teachers, attended an exercise in the city. The "foils at home" remembered all the students, by sending them boxes filled with good things. Mrs. Turpin, Mrs. Watson and Miss Commons spent the holidays with people at home. Mrs. Watson has been detained at home for a few days on account of the illness of her parents. Miss Ethel Turpin. of Nashville, gave her mother a pleasant surprise last Friday night, by slipping in on her. She was one of our most pleasant visitors for the season. Several new students have already arrived for entrance upon the winter term; among the number is Annie Lou Knott, of Perris, Texas; and another, building the season. Mr. William Stovall of Dixon Springs, is also among the newcomers. He has a sister already in school, this being her second year. The cantata, "Jeptahah's Daughter" was postponed on account of bad weather; but will take place at an early date this month. Work on the uninished part of the basement of the Girls' dormitory has gone forward during the holiday season, and at this time there has been wrought a considerable change in the appearance of things. In a very few weeks a complete transformation will have taken place. Miss Sallie Common$^a$ has been on the sick list ever since her return; but she is convalescent, and is at her post. The annual observance of the Emancipation Day was held in the college chapel Monday night, at which time a special program was rendered, and the students given a New Year's social. PULASKL The people of this town have been well entertained for the Christmas holidays. The parents of Walter McLawnie and T. P. Turner, Jr., of Union University, Richmond, Va., were delighted to have them here to spend the holidays, also Miss Mami A. Turner, of Fisk University, was here. All returned to their schools to pursue their studies. Miss Inez Uphaw, who came up from Birmingham, Ala., to visit her sick sister, is yet at her home, though will return to Birmingham soon. Mrs. M.

The Punaski High School opened its doors on Monday and several new faces were seen for the first time and many were non-resident pupils who reside in different a gala day. The Emancipation Committee had arranged a programme for a great time and had invited Dr. W. S. Elington, the great pitcher of Nashville, to speak. Dr. Elington was at his best. Dr. Emancipation of the county Court House was filled to its capacity. The president, Prof. J. T. Bridgewater, of the Emancipation Committee, made a few appropriate remarks and named Prof. B. H. Morrell to introduce Prof. B. H. Morrell to be known him for years, besides being a schoolmate, which he did in a few well-chosen words. All the schools of Giles County were given a holiday to honor this occasion. The committee met Dr. Ellington at the station headed by a brass band and marched through the thoroughfare of the town followed by people in vehicles, in autos and on horseback. So well pleased were the people that they readily responded in a public collection and raised the entire expense of the occasion in a short while. At night Dr. Ellington preached to a crowded house at the A. M. E. Church. The Christmas tree at the Beulah Baptist Church was quite a success. The program which was conducted by Miss J. B Bramlette, organist and secretary of the Sunday school, was said to be the best in the history of the Sunday school. The house was packed. Dr. Payne, of the Meharry College, was the principal speaker. Little Lourente Keith received the prize in the contest for new members. Mr. Spencer Suggs, who has been working in Memphis for several years, died there on the 29th of December. His remains were brought home and buried Monday.

One of the most beautiful of the many socials of the season was the brilliant banquet tendered by the Blue Ribbon Club on last Friday evening in the home of Dr. and Mrs. C. M. Gloster. The rooms thrown open for the occasion were attractively decorated and the scarlet Christmas balls carried out beautifully the holiday color scheme. At a late hour the guests were invited into the dining-room, where silver and cut glass seemed to vie with each other in their beautiful display. A delicious supper menu was served consisting of wines, oyster soup, crackers, chicken, cranberries, celery, pickles, olives, peti poris peas, creamed potatoes, bread coffee, fruit, salad, cream and cake. A most artistic tropical effect prevailed in the dining-room, where the ceiling was garlanded with blue ribbon, studded with blue bows and the window draperies were decorated with holly. The votive is the room where the dinner-room was blue, the club color. In the center of each table was a massive fern the table center pieces were white linen, on which blue butterflies were hand-crocheted. Mr. Will Leigh, the toastmaster for the occasion, was master of the situation. Excellent toasts were given by Dr. B. McLenn on behalf of the pharmacist; Mrs. C. A. Ward, on behalf of the visitors; Mrs. Calle Mae Martilson, on behalf of the married ladies; Mr. J. H. Coleman, on behalf of the business men of the city.

Ward of Boston, Mrs. Calle Mae Martilson of Checoshiia, Okla., Miss Lill an Kelly of Huntsville, Ala., and Mr. Leroy Thompson of Chicago about thirty-eight had the pleasure of enjoying the hospitality of the Blue Ribbon Club. Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Porter charmingly entertained in the dining-room with the main features of amusement. The hostess with her usual graceful manner gave her guests a cordial welcome. Whilst was indulged until a very late hour. The rooms thrown open for the occasion were beautifully decorated in keeping with the holiday season. Scarlet and green were the prevailing tones in the color scheme. The side walls and windows were decorated with deep green, scarlet and gold leaves. At a late hour a delicious menu was served the twenty guests who had the pleasure of enjoying the hospitality of the host and hostess. Dr. and Mrs. C. M. Gloster delightfully entertained a number of the younger from 8 to 10 o'clock in honor of Miss Geneva Patton of Nashville, who has come to make home with Dr. and Mrs. Gloster. Music and games were enjoyed until a late hour, when Mrs. Gloster, the hostess, served the guests who numbered about twenty a very appetizing menu. The house was decorated in keeping with the holiday season. Dr. C. M. Gloster took a patient to the Negro Baptist Hospital on last Sunday. While in the city he is spending some time with his parents, Prof. and Mrs. J. R Gloster of Howe Institute.

MBMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION One of the priceless things which we have, and also the freest and most abundant is fresh air. And yet the common attitude of humanity toward fresh air particularly at this time of year when the temperature is low, is one of avoidance, as though fresh air were pestilential. We make abundant provision for heating our homes and our church and other buildings, calculating to a nicey the area of radiation necessary to a given measurement of air space; but all arrangements for ventilation seem to be haphazard, without fore thought, if ventilation is given any consideration whatsoever. We provide windows without number through which the pure air must be admitted; and then, upon approach of the cold season, we seal them hermetically, to make sure that none of the air within gets out and that none of the air without gets in. With hot air furnaces and with steam we make ourselves in tropical temperatures. It increases fuel consumption to heat fresh air and so we shut it out and economize, and the money so saved we spend in paying the doctor and the druggist to cure us of the fills which follow breathing foul and impure air. The atmosphere of some places is made noxious and offensive by stale to tobacco smoke which has no away of escape. Wherever people gather in large numbers, there we seem to make the least provision for the admission of pur. air from without. We consistently shun the outdoors so far as possible. We coop our soles indoors, and when it is necessary for us to go about we hasten from one place to another in our motor cars or in the street cars, shivering as we $w_e$ take the few necessary steps between our destination. Few people any more walk in the winter time, save as urged by necessity. The winter sports such as remain are left to the boys and girls, youngsters who have no more sense than to want to be out of doors in cold weather. We permit our blood to become thin and sluggish and our vitality low, and thus offer ourselves as a fair target of disease. We do all this in the light of the knowledge that fresh air is the best tone known; the most preventive of disease, often the surest cure for disease; the unfailing source of visor and vitality. Fresh air is a better medicine than any air of the concoctions devised by man, and it is the cheapest, costing not a penny. Exercise in the fresh air in cold weather is much more beneficial than the outdoor exercise of the warm months, for the summer's heat often is exhausting, while the winter's cold always is stimulating and invigorating and makes the blood run warm. To enjoy cold weather, one needs to be clothed warmly. The mistake that most of us make in winter time is trailing to clothe ourselves as the temperature demands. We are quite likely, in false pride to sacrifice comfort for the sake of appearance. We have been learning in recent years how to be comfortable in winter and yet look well, but our winter outdoor dress still is more or less illogical, from the standpoint of comfort at least. We give heed too much to what people say about us. People living further north, where temperatures are so severe as to forbid defiance, are less careful about appearance and more regardful of comfort. We have meen who would consider it mortification to be $b_e$ seen wearing a cap, or covering their ears, and the man who dons overshoes to keep his feet warm invites the contempt of his fellows. And the follies of our womenkind in the winter time—who is not familiar with them? We are all cranks, of one kind or another; some of us are fresh air cranks, and some of us are the other kind. Between us, we have so arranged matters that it is all but impossible for anybody to get as much as a breath of the pure, sweet air of the outdoors—air charged with life-giving ozone and electric with vitality, air that at this time of the year comes to us thoroughly washed, cleansed and replenished, drawn from the great reservoirs of the north. But it is never too late to do better. Then let us open the windows! Let the fresh air pour in! Let us also go out into it and give our life blood a daily bath. For in the fresh air are life, health and strength, spiritual as well as physical. THE WAYS OF OUR FATHERS. We occasionally hear someone say, "We need to get back to the ways of our fathers." It is as the yelp of the dog run over by the automobile, but it will no more stop the steam roller of progress than the whine of the dog will stop the touring car. In the first place, the man who says it does not mean it. No one wants to go back to the days of the ox cart, the hand seeder, the sickle, the fall, the spinning wheel, the stage coach, the days of almost msslibopforsays the days of almost impossible communication. The wall generally comes from some one who has run up against a custom of society made necessary by changing conditions, and who hasn't the energy, the enterprise, the polish, the education, the disposition, or the cash to keep up with the procession. But the world moves on just the same. In the first place, "Darkness moved upon the face of the earth," and the master mind said, "Let there be light; and there, was light," and right, and there was light, and there will continue to be more light as long as the world lasts. Countless remedies were hidden away in the recesses of nature, and were intended for the benefit of man; numerous laws were announced, scientific truths were covered up with the rubbish of medievalism; religious impulses were left unactivated. Man was put into this field with an impulse to advance and a command to dig, to "Seek and he could find; to knock and have never yet recovered him." Some have misconstrued the work knock and have never yet discovered anything of value, but those who have sought, and sought with diligence, have brought more light. Thus we have the discovery of the law of gravitation, circulation, the germ theory of diseases, antiseptics, and hundreds of things in the medical world. The mower, the reaper, the thrashing machine, the cotton gin, the telephone, the phonograph the movie, the wireless, the airship the submarine, the linotype to grind out machine-made editorials like this and many, many things in the mechanical world. We have the grape fruit, the tangerine, and many other things unknown to the palates of our fathers. On all sides and ni all departments there has been advance metn. We forget that the things we now enjoy have not always existed, and when we want to get back to the things of our fathers we don't realize what our wish is. Medical science will soon discover something to make $ \mathbf{e} $ our nerve $ \mathbf{e} $ impervious to the strain of the times, and then we will forget that we want to retrograde. But the important thing is that all this change in the scientific, mechanical and vegetable world is producing a change in the social and religious world, as inevitable ast time. We must adjust ourselves to changing conditions and bring our religious and social customs down to date. There are certain laws in all things that are inflexible and unchangeable, but barnacles have gathered upon the $ \mathbf{e} $ ship of state and the old craft needs to go into dry dock and be scraped and remodeled to keep up to the times. No, don't take us back to the things or our fathers, but move up in thought and spirit to the present times, if we can't be crowded ahead to the times of our children. The readers of the Globe are hereby and now told that the $ \mathrm{e} $ frequent errors that are seen in its columns are not attributable to the proof readers, as these good people have done their utmost to make the clean and readable Globe that ought to be. The truth, and the whole truth is, the stone man don't give a shake of a lamb's tail as to whether the paper looks good, bad or indifferent, just so he gets it down to the press room. Well, we got several Christmas presents, Dan Armstrong of Pittsburg, Pa., sending us two pairs of socks. We immediately discarded the pair we were wearing, hung them near the front entrance to our humble domicile. We haven't had a visitor since. --- Furtmorem, the Negro Board of Trade, the Negro Boosters, the Negro Business League, etc., have elected their officials for 1917. Well, gentlemen, do something besides exploiting the genius and business of your executives. The prospect of a bitter republican fight over the speakership has relieved Champ Clark of the worried look he has worn over since election day. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1917. Our make-up man deserves all that's coming to him after death, as last week's Globe will attest. Dad blame it, we would like to stand by and see him sizzle, oh, joy. The senate chaplain a few days ago, asked the divine one "to forgive us of our national signs." This is the biggest job any preacher ever unloaded unto the Almighty. The Virginia prohibition law allows a man one quart of the best a month. This is just enough for a sample to be poured on a sponge and inhaled. If the Mexican problem can be solved by parleying there still is room for hope that Carranza can solve it. But the "if" is a big one. At the outset the new 50-cent pieces will be quoted at the same rate as the old—two for a dollar. It has been a "dry" year with only a few "wet" spots. One of our Detroit exchanges comes to us wrapped in a beer label. Now if our Detroit brother would send along—but let that pass. The more seriously the trainmen talk about striking the more seriously Congress should talk about airlight compulsory arbitration. "Fair, colder." It will take a lot of them to balance up for the "fair, warmer" predictions at which we used to groan last summer. The mere fact that the peace dove has been allowed to flutter about for a fortnight without being hit by a brick is encouraging. Suggested for the benefit of those who cannot think of a suitable resoultion: When you get a dollar spend part of it. On the other hand persaps, you might remember that you have not paid your subscription to the Y. M. C. A. buildingg fund. It is so dry in Tennessee that there is no use in swearing off, so most of us will be satisfied with swearin' at. Now, let old Bob Allen, of Chattanooga, rejoice, there is a new cure for baldness advertised. To question the sincerity of Germany's desire for peace is to question German intelligence. If we all will buy less we will eventually have more money, and it will buy more. It will still be possible for some of the old timers to swear off ordering by mail. A small resolution put under the wire a winner is better than a large resolution left at the post. Father did little of the pre-Christmas worrying, but father's turn is here. Some people are helpless as long as they can get help. Time goes slowly for a woman with a new wrist watch. Be sure you are off with the old date before you are on with the new MR. C. A. DICKSON IN NASHVILLE After an absence from the city of two years, which is the interval between the first and second visits, Mr. C. A. Dickson is in town. He is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Allen Boyd, 1603 Harding street. Mr. Dickson was born and reared in Buffalo, New York. He has the distinction of being the oldest citizen of Buffalo, frome continued residence. He is a stockholder of more different Negro banks than any vision that has been to Nashville. He is the only member stock in all the Negro banks. He is was an uncle of the Negro, Dickson, and was one of the stockholders and a director of the One Cent Savings Bank. He plans to attend all of their metings. He was one of the first subscribers to the Y. M. C. A. Bulking Fund. He is the donor of the Dickson prize for Christmas, the club among children, carried on at the One Cent Savings Bank. Mr. Dickson is his own character, and in using his own language, he says, "I am an old crank, but it isn't everybody that can turn me." Several years ago the Nashville Globe gave quite a distinction to Mr. Dickson, in a write-up after the celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of the Battle of Lake Erie, when the citizens of Buffalo presented to Mr. Dickson a midt as recognition of his being the only surviving relative of Anthony Williams, the Negro Hero of the Battle of Lake Erie. Mr. Williams an Commodoore Perry's flagship, "Niagara." Mr. Dickson stated while in the city this week that he saw Anthony Williams. A very few can state this fact. He stopped in Columbus, Ohio, on his way to Nashville. He was guest at the New Year dinner at the National Baptist Publishing Board. DEATH OF MRS. ESTHER E. GRANT. Mrs. Esther E. Grant, who for the past nine years has made her home in Colorado Springs, Col., with her son, Dr. R. S. Grant, passed away last week at home in Colorado.

The remains St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church and were brought to the city by Dr. Grant and wife and the funeral services were held from Taylor & Co's pars. Mrs. Grant was a member of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church and never moved her connections. She is survived by her two sons and daughter: Mr. Edward Grant, of Dyersburg, Tenn., and Dr. R. S. Grant and Mrs. Birdie Grant-Brooks. She is survived by her two sons and Mrs. Grant are stopping with Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Ewing on Gay street. CALL MEETING. The President, Mrs. P. R.

Round-Robin Dinner Great (Continued from Page 1.) forms that were in evidence every where, depicted grandeur, eloquence and splendor for the evening. Before serving the first course, which consisted of Fruit de Codar, the host, M. C. A. Dickson, who is a native Buffaloian, and who has visited Nashville once before, welcomed the guests and gave them his idea and purpose for siving such a dinner. He said: "It has always been my policy in life not to allow anybody to do for me what I would not willingly and cheerfully repay, whether it be financial deeds of kindness, or courtesies. In other words, gentlemen, I feel indebted to every one of you here for some social courtesies extended to me while I was in the city several years ago, and I am taking this opportunity to repay you. I want each and every one to feel at home and to feel that in accepting this courtesy tonight you are only receiving what is justly due you Remember that every one present has been invited to sit at my right hand during one course before the evening closes and that you are to continue around the table until you return to your present seats. This is to be done before the dinner is finished. I am also going to ask that each of you sign on the second line your own signature in the space prepared for autographs. I will head each page so that I will know in need to come that men have dined with me on this occasion. I need not say to you that my stay here on my first visit was a pleasant one and that I seem deeply interested in you as personal friends in the language of a portion of the Scripture that I have read once, I will ask that each of you "Eat and be merry, for when each of you is a needn’t no more." The host called upon Dr. Clark, who pronounced the grace, The Misses Marie L. Boyd, Eleanor Alfreda Battle and Katie Albertine OPPORTUNITY SAVINGS ACCOUNT BORN MELANIE 100 Boyd, then passed the first course of the evening to the table, and the dinner was on. As the evening grew old, and the conversation drifted, steering clear always to what the host admonished, the host announced that he had prepared a surprise which was not on the program. Miss Katie Albertine Boyd was then introduced and delighted the guests with a reading. Miss Eleanor Battle next beautifully and charmingly sang "The Rosary," captivating the host and guests. Miss Bette sang without instrumental accompaniment. Mis Marie Boyd then held all spellbound when she read a selection. When the dinner was about half finished many thought it was over, because there was a break in the menu where the dash appeared, but according to the host's interpretation, "We have just begun, gentlemen; take your time, there is no hurry." Finally at 11:30 the last course was on the table and dinner was over, the guests congratulating the host and wishing him a long and peasant stay in Nashville.

The North Pole Dress Making and Shirt Factory opened its doors Wednesday at 504 4th Avenue, North. This enterprise was fostered by the North Pole Literary Club, one of the fast growing organizations of the city. Many styles of dresses and shirts will be made at this factory. Already many orders have been placed by some of our best white people of the city. Mr. B. H. January, President of the North Pole Literary Club will back these two young ladies in their new business. They hope the business will grow so fast that other young ladies of the club will be given a chance to take an interest in the factory. The owners of this new enterprise are two prominent members of the North Pole Literary Club, Miss Willie Male Dismukes, President and general manager has shown marked ability for one so young in millinery work. She is a graduate of the Teachers College Course of Domestic Arts Department of the Agriculture Mechanical Normal College of Alabama and a local college for two years as head of the dress making department of the above college. Miss Mattle K. Stevenson, Secretary and Treasurer, one of the young society bells of Kentucky and Nashville. She is a native of Mayfield, Ky., and a graduate of the dress making course of the Immaculate Mother's Catholic School of Nashville. She is a young lady in every respect worthy and competent to hold the position in this new enterprise. She has many friends in Nashville, as well as her home town, Kentucky. These young ladies will be glad for their friends to call to see them. THE NEGRO Y.M.C.A. The purchase by the Nashville Y. M. C. A. of the Duncan hotel building to be used as the Negro branch of the Y. M. C. A. is a happy solution of two problems that have been somewhat vexatious. In the first place it has been a difficult matter to find a building suitably located for a Negro Y. M. C. A. In the second place, it has seemed a shame to allow so excellent a building as the Duncan to go to waste. The building is admirably fitted and admirably located to serve its new purpose, and it could render no greater service than in filling this purpose. The white people of Nashville—those of them who are interested in the general wellbeing of Nashville—should be very keenly alive to the importance of this matter. The proper training, physical, intellectual and moral, of Negro men is certain a matter of almost vital interest to the general public. Let us look at the matter for a moment from a purely economic viewpoint. The Negro, when he is efficient, gives the best service that the south has or can hope for. Most of us have realized that all along, but it was brought more forcefully to the general attention a few months ago when the news began to be printed in the newspapers of the country that the Negroes of the south were being north in great numbers by industrial concessions. The Negro is where he belongs. But he needs have such training as will make him manually capable, intellectually alert and morally straight. To give him just that training, there is no better equipped agency than the Y. M. C. A. The new Negro branch of the Nashville Y. M. C. A., when equipped and put in service, will be of very great economic benefit to the community of Nashville. Every Negro young man who patronizes it sustains some sort of servicesb), relies on the servicesb), there are very few white persons in Nashville but are dependent in some way upon some of thes, Negroes. pastor and members of Rock City Baptist Church were being royally entertained by St. James pastor and members in a league.

MARRIAGES Miss Dora Degrafrenried of Indianapolis, Ind., spent Sunday and Monday of last week in Nashville. While here she was the guest of her causin, Mamie Moore, of 1220 Thirteenth avenue, South. Miss Degrafrenried left for Franklin, Tenn., Monday night, her former home, to stay a few days, after which she will return to Indianapolis. With 201 applications being investigated and the way seems possible to serve each of them. The many white friends exceeded the colored friends. Members of the race who forwarded donations were Hon. A. N. Johnson. Dr. JJ. W. Russell, Mr. Hadley Fite, Rev. Preston Taylor. (The general report will appear in the next issue stating the general fact and every penny, giving every one credit for the amount contributed. Records show that we will be able to deliver 1500 bushels of coal to the dependent widows. There are a few friends who can and will help us this incoming week.

Open an account here and add to it regularly and as largely as you can. It will not be long before you'll have capital enough for some opportunity to increase it abundantly. Every Negro will be better qualified to give service because of the Y. M. C. A., and very few persons will be better served. —Nashville Tennessee and American.

Bishop Carter is an ideal Bishop. He conducts his conference business on the highest business order. The men of this state love him and they gave him their highest respect. He is a leader of men, men who come in touch with him have to follow his leadership. Mrs. Carter travels with him and serves as his private secretary. She is honored by the members of the three conferences in this state and they tumble over each other toward doing honor to this great and noble woman. The Conferences of the state are now over and we have gone back to aur several fields to do greater and better work for the ensuing conferences.

AN INVALID THAT HAS GROWN WEARY OF LIFE One more dreary winter, To wait and hope in vain And watch the endless days drag by, Will spring ever come again? Life is but a fleeting phantom, Like one beholds in a dream, Now I long to be at peaceful rest, Where radiant faces shall always beam. Oh, that I were only sleeping, Within the silent solemn grave, Unconscious of life's cruel mis- fortunes, There my heart never more would crave. Once as great life passed me by, I heard or seemed to hear, A youthful song upon the air, In a bold voice louh and clear. So if I must remain an invail- Still the battle is not yet won, I shall know that God his willed it And the Lord God's will be done. Composed and written by J. Rose grant Mayberry, Jr. Thursday night, December 21 when all was quiet and peaceable an alarm was-made at the residence of Dr. G. L. Jackson, Jr., and on opening the door a great multitude, the members of St. James Church of course, were there and in a few minutes the tables began to rock and floor to groan from the amount of provision and fruits of all kind that were put upon there, after singing a few songs of Zion, the multitude departed leaving the doctor and family very much excited and unable to express their joy. Dr. G. L. Jackson, Jr., pastor of St. James A. M. E. Church and his loyal members were highly entertained in the church, and Andrew Wilson, pastor of Rock City Baptist Church and his faithful members, a splendid spiritual meeting was had and one soul was made happy by finding the Lord. To retaliate a few hours before the whistles began to blow and bells to ring announcing the going out of the old and coming in of the new year.

The great audience room of the magnificent Court House of Giles County was filled to overflowing.

Burns, pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church and chairman of the Mission Board asked as Master of Ceremonies, Rev. Burns is a highly intellectual and progressive minister and in a few well chosen words set forth the purpose and intentions of the Board in its Missionary work for the New Year. In his remarks, Rev. Burns declared that while money was an essential in the development of the work that the State Convention is attempting to do, that the greatest aim and most sincere desire of the heart of this great organization is to save souls and thus bring God's kingdom on earth. For this purpose the State Mission Board was instituted. The chairman then presented the speaker of the hour, Dr. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church and Tr. surer of the Missionary Baptist Convention, Dr. Clark chose the 24th Pt. on his text, "God's Lordship of the world."

The "Prepared" 1917 finds The Star Realty & Investment Co. better prepared than ever to give to the public good and efficient service. We wonder why you continue to complain about Negro workmen giving unsatisfactory service, not honest, etc. We render the kind of service you want. We are prepared to guarantee what we say, we charge right for what we do. If you need a dentist or surgeon you would want the best or as good as the town afforded. Why not secure a firm who can do your work well and take care of your interest? Many who read this know that as a rule the cheapest is the dearest. Let this warn you who have not had the experience of trying to get something for nothing, that it is better to pay a fair price for good and reliable service than to pay the same price for unreliable service. Reliable service carries with it liability for any irregularity that might happen. LANDLORDS. It costs no more for us to co- other firm, we are looking g ness.

GALEDA CLASS NO. 30 OF PLEAS ANT GREEN PARTIST CHURCH GALEDA CLASS NO. 36 OF PLEASANT GREEN BAPTIST CHURCH. Galeeda Class of Pleasant Green is still thriving. Each member seems to have the Galeeda spirit and to know just what the word "Galeeda" means. Our monthly meetings are quite interesting and very appropriate. Programs are rendered at each meeting, At our next meeting the election of officers will take place for the ensuing year. Some time ago the Metokas and Galeadas entertained in a contest, the class raising the largest amount of money for the quarter was to be entertained by the defeated class. The fortunate class was to be served in royal style to a menu of chicken salad, ice cream, etc., while the defeated ones will be served beans. Sunday was the closing of the contest and the Metokas won by having $1.17 more than the Galeadas for the quarter. The Galeadas are still in fine spirits with the consolation that we gave the Metokas a fast race. We will entertain them Sunday evening, Jan. 14 at the residence of our teacher, Mr. S. H.

PAYNE CHAPEL NOTES Mr. Editor: Please allow me to say to the many readers of your columns that the last week in 1916 was indeed a "Red Letter" week in Payne Chapel A. M. E. Church. On Thursday night we installed and unveiled our new Pelbeet pipe organ, which gave a freshness, tone and inspiration to the church and the members of dear old Payne. Sunday the 31st, was indeed a high day in our beloved Zion. Our pastor, Rev. L. James Johnson, B. D., D. D., seemed to have been translated and was walking with the Master at 11 o'clock when he broke to a crowded house the news of Salvation. Many were the amens and shouts that went up to the hill of the Lord. Sunday night marked another great time. The choir rendered a well prepared program of a jubilee concert, which every one enjoyed to the highest. President Moppins and his splendid choir received many compliments and words of encouragement. Certainly, Doctor Johnson knows just what to do to inspire his people. Being an orator of no mean ability, a great financier, a scholarly gentleman and a Christian minister of high moral standing, the church must succeed under his leadership. The longer he stays with us, the more the church and people think of him. Come out next Sunday at 11 o'clock and hear him. Subject, "What Have I Done?" Miss M. J. Keys of Mayfield, KY, will arrive in the city this week to begin for Doctor Johnson a series of meetings from next Sunday night the 7th inst, to which all are invited and welcome. Jas. McManaway NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE. The Negro Business League held an interesting meeting Monday at their headquarters, U. B. F. Hall, Fourth Avenue. Many matters of importance came up for consideration, the following committee was appointed to draft resolutions to carry before the Legislature for the abolishment of Magistrate offices in this and other cities of the state. They have proved to be a menace to the working Negro. The League at an early date will establish two new departments to be known as the Legal Aid Bureau, and a law and legislation. The last mentioned will have charge of matters that pertain to the Negro setting a square deal in the courts instead of being railroaded to the prisons and workhouse camps for the want of proper legal talent. Said department will nt aid their race in vice and crime, but will come to their rescue in helping the unfortunate get out of trouble, such as divorce cases which should be remedied among the colored race of this city. The divorce Proctor Law must help the Negro men and women settle their differences without going to the Courts and having their home affairs aired to the world. It many cases same has been detrimental to both parties in the case. The League wishes to remedy this evil among colored people of this city. THE VIOLET THAT WILL NEVER BLOOM I once was a bud of a promising flower. That ever peeped out of the gloom; I would, have been called a violet. But that violet can never bloom. I long for the life that should be mine. That won't come this side of the tomb; For fate spoke out loud and bold. That's a flower I'll never let bloom. Oh, how I long to end my sad lot. As I have already read my doom; My body is but a frightful wreck. How can this violet bloom? These walls seem as those of a prison. These walls of this hated room Seem to be pressing down upon me; God knows why the violet won't bloom. Oh, violet, cease thy longing. While yet in the presence of gloom Maybe God in His mercy Will give the one more chance to bloom. —J. Rosegrant Mayberry, Jr. F. J. MYLES. A. H. C. P. A.

He has learned to use his time to a purpose, is broad, liberal and progressive and is not afraid of ideas. He sees as his prize a cultured mind towards which he daily moves, and guided him the idea of success. He is never idle, for he reflects. He is never alone for the world's best men and women are his constant companions. Oskaloosa College is located in Iowa and one of the leading institutions in the North. To this date F. J.

A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the best of men. And women too. The old adage is proven over and over again by the continued and most extraordinary success of Gus New York's productions of Mutt & Jeff. New York's best citizens, butchers, bakers and undertakers, all turn to the FUNNY PICTURES in the morning newspapers to see what those two funny fellows, Mutt and Jeff, are up to. Nor is the habit confined to any class, creed or status of lige's success. The banker, the lawyer and the Judge enjoy the daily cartoons as well as his less fortunate brothers and ap- pland Bud Fisher's satirical humor. Millions of the best people in America have laughed at Gus Hill's company presenting MUTT & JEFF in their various plays and will continue to laugh at them as long as Bud Fisher and Gus Hill can keep up the pace. Mutt and Jeff have made five complete tours of the United States and Canada, with absolutely no sign of diminishing popularity, and will continue to do so for years innumerable. MUTT & JEFF'S WEDDING will not only live up to past records of phenomenal business, but will prove to be the crowning trumps of Mr. Hill's long bushness career. All known box office records have been hopelessly shattered by the normous popularity of this SURE FIRE success and has been known as the mortgage lifter for house managers and theatre managers all over the country.
