NASHVILLE GLOBE. QUILL PUSHERS IN MID-WINTER SESSION CONDEMNS SCORN OF NEIGHBOR--WHITES MUST HELP NEGRO--TOO TIMID IN ASSERTING CONVICTIONS VOLUME XII. QUIL BISHOP GAIL GREA MEMPHIS GIVEN CONDEMNS SCORN OF NEIGHER NEGRO--TOO TIMID CONVIC Memphis, Tenn, Feb. 4.—Preaching to a great congregation in the fashionable Calvary Church, wealthiest congregation in Tennessee, the Rt. Rev. T. F. Gallor, Bishop of Tennessee, delivered a memorable rebuke to white Christians of the South for surrendering the Negro to the cruelty of the "low browed whites." The sermon shook Memphis, and gave a city of excitement something new to talk about. One of the greatest preachers of his day, Bishop Gallor is a man of rare eloquence. For some years intelligent colored men have been doubtful of the Bishop's interest in their welfare. They will welcome his rebuke to the apathy of the white South as a new and stirring witness for their cause. Politics and murder make up the life of Memphis. Money plays some part, and intellectual freedom no part at all. Bishop Gallor brandishes the shipboard of his faith, and compels the teachers of it to prove their belief. And that belief involves less mouthing and more practice of what the Founder of Christianity really taught, and upon which the banished ancient philosophy for the divine passion of duty which finds human expression in love of man one for another. The following is taken from the Commercial Appeal: He took for his text St. Matthew 5:27. "Whosoever shall say to his brother, Thou Fool, shall be in danger of hell fire." These words were spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ in his sermon on the mount," said Bishop Gallor. "He is insisting upon the fact of human brotherhood. He quotes the ancient law against murder and amplifies it by declaring that he who is angry with his brother without cause is in danger of the judgement, and he who says to his brother, raca," simpleton, is in danger of the council; but he who calls his brother a fool is in danger of hell fire." The whole discourse is built upon the brotherhood of all members of the human family. This truth rings out through all the Christian writings. The Faith of God and the brotherhood of man these are the great central Christian principles. We are members one of another. We are not alone. We do not work singly. Our very sation is connected with that of our brother, who sits beside us. Life touches life and soul is bound up with soul in the great family of God. a man who works for himself alone and permits the thought of his own happiness, here or in the world to come, to absorb his whole attention, without thought of the happiness and well-being of his brethren, is on the way to death—the lonely, wretched death of selfishness. He is like an arm cutting itself off from the body. It will wither and shrivel up and die. This is the reason in our own nature for the church, which Christ found another. Our lives and for one another. Our lives and hopes are everlastingly inter-related and intertwined. We are members of our same family: partakers of the same privileges, compassed by the same damnness saved by the same Lord. Here before God, as His children in Christ, we are all—men and women of every race and name—we are all on the all weak, all sinful, all having a battle to fight and souls to save. Condemns Scorn of Neighbor. "Thus we are brethren; and our Lord says 'Whoever shall say unto his brother, thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.' He does not mean that we should countenance folly or fail to recognize it. What He condemns is scorn of our neighbor—scorn that is always made up of two things—arrogance and cruelty. Who made you better than an other? By what power have you received more talents, more gifts, a better station? Who gave you the right to injure your brother? How is it, that you are so great, so necessary, so noble, that you can despise and stamp out another life, that is wretched and poor and weak. What makes the wrath against an other? Must Help the Negro Race. "Here we are in Shelby County with nearly 100,000 Negroes in our midst—52,000 Negroes in the city of Memphis. What social effort are we making to redeem them from vice and crime—to lift them out of Barbarism? "The other night a respectable citizen was waylaid and murdered by two young Negro highwaymen, and the whole city was outraged. But, after all, whose fault is it? There NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY---THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. are thousands of Negro boys and girls growing up in this city who may be, probably will be, criminals, and who is it among you Christian people that is trying to make them honest and self-supporting and self-respecting? "Who has not heard the stories that are told with laughter on the trains, and elsewhere, of Negro ignorance and credulity in the cotton belt, exploited by base white men for the white men's gain? What serious and sustained interest have we taken as we taking in encouraging worthy and hardworking and self-respecting Negroes to lift themselves and their families out of the sphere of ignorance and coarse living; and to protect them from the brutal insults of the low-browed whites? "The newspaper treats as a jest the fact that the two Negro highwaymen were sent to prison for life, even before their victim was buried. The ruling race says 'Thou fool' and in its arrogance, blind to the future, shirks the responsibility. "My brethren, these are things that must be told, and said by southern men; for I know that all you people agree with me. The trouble is, that great class of southern men, who want justice and fair play, and sympathy and encouragement for the Negro race, for one reason or another, to silence and this tremendous problem to be handled practically by that class—present in every community—who do not know or who do not care for righteousness. "This is no question of social equality. There never was such a question. There is no such a thing as social equality, even among white people. This is such a ting as social familiarity; and we have rightly settled that question in the south. It is no question of political rights. I do not believe in any man's right to vote. The suffrage is a privilege and not a right. "But this question is one of human rights—the human right to life; to liberty under the flog, and to be protected in the ownership of what one has earned by honest labor. These three human rights we southern people are ready to guarantee to every man and woman in our land; and here today, for the benefit of those who criticise us from a distance, I am ready and glad to say, that I voice the conviction of the best people of the south, when I say this; although we have been altogether too timid in bringing our convictions. "Ah, heavenly would have you come with me this morning out of atmosphere of our petty actions and stifling jealousies into the free, fresh air of the mercy and love of our Heavenly Father—to realize for a moment on our knees our kinship in Jesus Christ—that the great and the lowly, the living and the dead, are one family and one brotherhood in Him. "This is that true love of humanity of which the modern philosophy is but the ineffectual shadow. This is the philanthropy which does not exhaust itself in idle dreams of what it might do for the ideal race at large; but which like charity begins at home and shows itself in the common duties of common life; the philanthropy which is known first of all in kindness and gentleness to us—in the fulfillment of the duties of our life, our father, mother and friend—and which expands out through the homely duties well performed into the large and deep and thoughtful regard for the aims and hopes and life of humankind—for His sake—who hath made us all of one blood, one common clay, soon to crumble into dust, and hath also blessed us with the hope of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." JUDGE ORDERS MAN CUT FROM JURY LIST FOR RACE PREJUDICE. The name of John A Magee, a real estate agent and Yale graduate, of N.Y., West Elysah-sixth street, is to be struck by all jury lists at the direction of Judge Rosalie. Magee's prejudice against the Negro race is responsible for this remarkable order, which was announced at the trial of a Negro in Part V. General Sessions. Macee was one of the talesmen undergoing examination for the trial of Nathaniel Motley, accused of stabbing to death John Press, also a Negro, on August 4. Magee, when asked if there was a reason why he should not serve as a juror, replied: "I am giving for not being eligible as a juror is my prejudice against the Negro race. As the defendant belongs to that race, I know I could not view the case impartially."-N. Y. Herald. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1917. Easter Sunday Set Aside As "Go to Sunday School Day" In Tennessee Gov. Tom C. Rye, before his departure for Florida Monday issued a proclamation to the people of Tennessee, setting apart Easter Sunday, April 8, as "Go to Sunday School Day" for Tennessee, on which day all Tennesseeans are urged to attend Sunday school. The proclamation in full is as follows: "To the People of Tennessee: No state can truthfully boast of true greatness and wealth, unless that state is great in its moral development and rich in the Godliness of its people, hence the exacting demand and important duty of every commonwealth is to bend every effort and exert every energy to the thorough establishment of the great forces which promote the Christian character and good citizenship. "The Sunday schools of our state are strong right arms of our churches, dealing deadly and effective blows to the evils that seek to destroy childhood, home, state and nation. This being true, our Sunday schools deserve all praise and encouragement and should be attended by all our people. The child naturally follows in the footsteps of more mature years, therefore our men and women should turn their steps toward the Sunday school, in order that the children may learn lessons which shall make them worthy citizens. If the time ever was when the Sunday school was but a place for children, that time has passed, for under the guidance of the good men and women who are giving their lives to the noble cause, there now is a place for children to "Cradle Roll" for infants to the "Home Department" for those unable to attend, and duty calls all to take their place in the Sunday school. "I could wish for no higher compliment or greater honor for our people than to have it said that every citizen of the state is a members of the Sunday school. Thousands of our children are already on the highway to ruin, because father, mother or somebody else did not direct their tiny feet into the paths that lead to the Sunday school. PRINCE OF PEACE "There has never been a time when the importance of Sunday school attendance was not realized and appreciated, but it seems to me that, in view of recent events, the importance of Sunday school encouragement and attendance is emphasized. We did not desire it—we could not help it—we have even prayed that it might not come, but despite all this, we are today walking in the gathering gloom of lower war-cards, and we need to know more of the teachings of the Prince of Peace and His will concerning us. "Believing Implicitly in the great work now being done in our Sunday schools, desirous of encouraging the efforts of those who are contributing their time, energy and money to this holy cause, and being advised that the Tennessee Sunday school association has designated Sunday, April 8, as "Go to Sunday School Day," now, there fore, I. Tom C. Rye, governor of Tennessee, do hereby proclaim" and set apart April 8, 1917, as "Go to Sunday School Day" for Tennessee. On that day, I earnestly urge all Tennesseeans, as well as all visitors within her borders, to attend the Sunday school of their choice, and trust that those not heretofore attending may, on that day resolve to begin to cultivate the habit of regular Sunday school attendance believing as I do, that from this habit will spring countless blessings to every home in our state. "In Testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the great Seal of State' to be affixed at Nashville on this, the fifth day of February, nineteen hundred and seventeen. (Signed) "TOM C. RYE, Governor." MR. COOPER'S STATEMENT. In relation to the governor's proclamation, Noah W. Cooper, president of the Davidson County Sunday school association, makes the following statement: "Our 'Go-to-Sunday-School Day' was a tremendous success here in Nashville in 1916. Now we want to cover the whole state, and have everybody in Sunday school on Easter Sunday. As president of the Davidson county association, I urge every county officer and every Sunday school teacher and scholar to keep this day in everybody's mind, and in every newspaper from now till Easter Sunday." JUDGE CARTHELL ENTHUSIAST. Judge Joseph Carthell, general secretary of the Tennessee Sunday school association, who is very enthusiastic (Continued on Page A.) Ladies Auxiliary With Officers and Captains of Teams--Committee of Management and Advisory Board--Davis Military Band Among the Features--Much Enthusiasm Plans for the Colored Y. M. C. A. mass meeting at the Ryman Auditorium have been perfected. Nearly 2,000 subscribers and workers have been sent personal notices. The speakers have been selected. The heating of the auditorium, the placing of a piano by the Starr Piano Company for use on that occasion; and every detail which a beg meet such as that calls for has been worked out by the committee and they are going over them as this article goes to press in order to make sure that there is no occasion for a single bity of any sort. SPEAKERS. The committee in charge has been diligent in its search for public spirited men. Mayor Robert Ewing Major E. B. Stahman. Mr. J. H. Allison. Mr. Arch Trawick and Mr. S. W. McWill be on hand. The message which these men will bring is short but effective and to the point. MUSIC. Mr. A. G. Price, Chorister of St Paul A. M. E. Church Choir, will direct the singing and Mrs. W. I. McGavock will preside at the piano. The audience will be expected to do its own singing in most part. A tenebodies and favorite hymn will be sung with a spirit and terver characteristic of a Nashville congregation on such occasions. No one who does music in the juvenile incarnate gross singing songs with which they are more or less familiar can afford to miss the Sunday meeting. THE LADIES' AUXILIARY The ladies' auxiliary which so many predict will in no wise fail to measure up to the high standard set by such cities as Athens, Kansas City and Indianapolis, will be on hand full force. It is the opinion of the president, Mrs. Clemence White, that at least 2000 ladies will be present Sunday to lend encouragement and to pledge their co-operation to the public-spirited men who are seeing to it that a beighter day must not simply dawn in Nashville, but must break forth into exultant splendor for the Negro men and boys of this city. When it comes to genuine appreciation for genuine service rendered, the women take first place in making it known. In the Tennessee state prison and reformatory there are for every one woman there confined forty men and boys. The police records of Nashville show approximately that for arrest for minor offences of women in the corporate limits there are about three men for every woman arrested. The necessity for the cooperation on the part of the ladies is easily seen. FINANCIAL EFFORT. There will be an effort made to materially increase the receipts of building fund at the Sunday meeting. There will be no chiding of those who will not find it convenient to make a payment. Whatever is done or is not done in this direction will effect to no great extent the object of the meeting. It would be an inexhaustible stimulus to hold such a meeting and fall or neglect to give everybody an opportunity to contribute as they feel, but on the other hand, no one will be made to feel embarrassed in the least as a result of an effort to press payment of pledges. THINKING OF A FRIEND. * * * *but doesn't time pass swiftly? It seems but yesterday since John and I were together at work, also at leisure. But it is a year ago today since I was bereft of his pleasant association, as were others. Truly I felt and do still feel the loss of a friend, the memory of whom I fondly cherish. Who is it that does not recall the cheery greeting that John H. Kelly, Jr. had for friend and foe? But why lament over things inevitable? Rather let us rejoice and be exceeding happy to know that are long, even we, as John— "Shall see our Pilot face to face When we have crossed the Bar." - A. G. Price Deceased Senior Zion Prelate's Work Praised in Huge Services Great Audience Mourns As Bishop Clinton in Tears Delivers Solemn Funeral Eulogy by Request of Dead Church Zion A. M. E. Church, West 136th street, proved far too small to accommodate the hundreds that jammed it yesterday morning to pay the last tribute of respect to the Right Rev. Alexander Walters, Senior Bishop of the A. M. E. Zion Church, and one of the most noted figures in America. Bishop Walters died in his home, 208 West 134th street. Thursday, February 1, after an illness of nearly seven months, and a few weeks after he had been brought from St. Luke's Hospital, where he was taken for the purpose of trying to save his life. The mineral services opened with Bishop W. L. Lee presiding, and the singing of "Asleep in Jesus." 1st Scripture reading by Dr. Hanna, of Philadelphia, 2nd Scripture lesson, Dr. Pike, of the New Jersey Conference, and the invocation by Dr. Harvey Anderson editor of the Star of Zion. The Rev A. A. Crook then announced the second hymn, "Servant of God Well Done." At the request of Bishop Walters, his personal friend, Bishop George W. Clinton, of Charlotte, N. C., who succeeds him as senior bishop of the Zion Church, delivered the funeral ulogy. Bishop Clinton, in his eulogy which many times moved him to tears, cited the life of the deceased prelate from his early boyhood, his school days, the time he entered the ministry and his election as the 24th Bishop of his church. He called attention that Bishop Walters began preaching in 1870 and was elected Bishop in his 34th year, being the second young man to fill that high office. The speaker then told of Bishop Clinton's involvement in the church, the many times he was honored and appointed to fill honorable positions and to preside over important councils.

American colored able seaman, Richard Wallace, of Baltimore, killed during shelling of boats after they had just left the Eavestone. Details not yet available." Official Washington feels that the critical moment has arrived and that a declaration of war against Germany is not far distant. Should the official dispatches today confirm the reports concerning the sinking of the British freighter Eavestone and the killing of an American citizen, it is believed by senators and representatives that the President will come before Congress to ask for authority to use the forces of the United States to protect its citizens. The shelling of the small boats in which the crew as seeking to escape from the sinking vessel, as reported, is considered to be an aggravated case of violation of the principles of cruiser warfare as laid down by the United States government, which the President cannot overlook.—Amsterdam News.

PERRY PRESIDING MUCH IMPORTANT BUSINESS TRANSACTED--LADIES PRESENT--PUBLIC WELCOME GIVEN BY THE CITIZENS OF NASHVILLE M. B. Editor Philadelphia Tribune, Philadelphia, Pa., President National Negro Press Association who will preside at the twelfth annual session of the Association and who for thirty years has been an active editor Representatives of the Negro newspapers throughout the United States are in Nashville this week, holding their annual convention. The sessions are being held in the board rooms of the National Baptist Publishing Board, corner Second avenue, North, and Locust street, and are being presided over by Mr. Chris J. Perry, the president of the Association. Some of the oldest newspaper men in the United States are in attendance. Their records run to as high as forty years of continuous service. Nashville has been doing honors to these pushers of the coll. newspapers and with an executive committee meeting at 10:00 o'clock Wednesday. At this executive session weight matters pertaining to the work of the craft were considered and a number of important changes affecting the membership dealing with the circulation, repetorial work and the managerial side of publications were presented to the committee. On Wednesday night the local committee gave a public welcome at the St. John A. M. E. Church, corner Eighth avenue and Cedar street. The meeting was presided over by Mr. A. N. Johnson, who is chairman of the local committee and who delivered the opening address. The Rev. MR. CHRISTOPHER Editor Philadelphia Tribune, Ph. Negro Press Association, who wi sion of the Association and whe editor. H. C. Clark, D. D., pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, offered prayer. The welcome address to the newspaper men on behalf of the citizens of Nashville was delivered by President W. J. Hale, of the A. & I. State Normal. In Prof. Hale's address he assured the visiting representatives of the press that Nashville appreciated their presence and that the gates of Nashville stood ajar not only for this occasion, but for each and every session that was to follow. He told of the great work being accomplished in Nashville by the members of the press, and declared that no city in the United States was more suitable for an ideal permanent meeting place than was the city whose arms were outstretched to receive them this week. The response to the welcome was delivered by Dr. J. A. Hamlet, editor of the Christian Index, of the C. M. E. Church of Jackson, Tenn. His was a happy response. The anecdote he gave about the fellow forgetting a part of the wedding ceremony was enjoyable and he compared that to the newspaper men accepting the invitation. Chairman Johnson then called on President Perry of the Association who also made a response in which --- NUMBER 6 MEN E'S GUESTS RY PRESIDING ISS TRANSACTED--LADIES COME GIVEN BY THE NASHVILLE MR. H.

At the conclusion of the address Chairman Johnson announced the local program, which included a number of entertainments by the Nashville members and the citizens in general. Thursday morning the sessions proper were opened and among important matters considered first was the introduction of the committee. The better part of the day was spent in the discussion of recommendations made by the committee at its Kansas City session last August and by the committee in its session Wednesday. The chairman of the Executive Committee, Mr. Joseph L. Jones, editor of the Fraternal Monitor, of Cincinnati, read the report. At 12 o'clock the entire association accepted an invitation to visit Fisk and Roger Williams Universities. Eight representatives were filled with these representatives and just before leaving their meeting place a photograph was made of the cars as they were lined up. The cars were furnished by the Landers, Dr. J. A. Continuum. (Continued on Page 6.)

There are two kinds of missionaries: those for godliness and those for wickedness. I want every person to be a Christian missionary. I come to join you in the effort to make every son and daughter a missionary for Christ. Some may be home missionaries and some may be foreign missionaries. And every child should become a Christian missionary. The truth is that every child is a born missionary of life, love, perfection and peace. Christ tells us we must become as little children to make sure of heaven. Our great duty is to protect our children because misfortune of evil. If all children grow up as good as they are born this world would be a Paradise of love and peace. Satan surrounds every child with evil to work his destruction. We must surround them with good examples, with good words, with noble ideals; so as to shield them from Satan's evils and bring them into PIANOS THAT SERVE MOST people are interested in the exterior of an instrument.

This is a bigger job than Samson or Hercules ever had, but with God's grace we can succeed. Satan has foreign missionaries. Many ships are carrying liquor and other curses to the Negroes in Africa. These engaged in this work are notorious in the奴役 of the Negroes. It is an awful truth that there are more missionaries of Satan trying to destroy the Negroes in Africa than there are missionaries of Christ for their salvation. That awful condition prevailed in Nashville so long that probably over half of our boys have been polluted with evil. I want these things changed. I want every home to be a mission for Christ. Half of the world is still heathen and the two-thirds of the world's Negroes are only half civilized. It is because civilized people have not done their duty. "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." That is our commission. Satan has gone, preaching his evils as if they were blessings. We must go and warn a credulous world of Satan's deceptions. We must go preaching Christ's gospel of patience, charity, industry, simplicity and perfection. In our own good city we have seen how Satan's missionaries have corrupted our youth and tainted thousands with bad habits. We must, with God's help, declare Satan here and everywhere against Satan and his evils. Duty due is joy complete. Our greatest heroes are like unto Joseph, Daniel, Saul, Livingston, who were among God's ideal missionaries. There are hundreds of women in Nashville, white and colored, who are perfect Christian missionaries. One of them is our good friend and sister, Amanda Cottoner, whose godly life has brought hope and joy to many homes and lives. There is that wonderful laundry woman of Fisk University, Mrs. Alice A. Dismakes, who will live in sweet memory like the widow who gave all she had. To be a Christian missionary may mean poverty in this world's goods but it guarantees everlasting life and peace. Let us be prepared. A hundred reasons call us and our children to this supreme duty. Gratitude for our wondrous blessings should make us spread them through the world. "Have you had a kindness shown? Pass it on! Pass it on! "Twas not given for thee alone, Pass it on! Pass it on! Live for self, you live in vain, Live for Christ you live again, Live for Him, with Him you'll reign; ST.

He owned a modest country home, equipped with those things which go to show that he had pride and well as thrift in managing. He lived a constant Christian, and ideal citizen and model husband and abroad and at home. Indicative of how many friends he and family had won, was the very large member of men women and children who gathered at Travelers' to his body, rather than laughed in the Travelers, Rest cemetery. He leaves behind a wife, a daughter, who is now Esther B. Jefferson and 4 sons, Herbert, Jerry, Caleb and Leo to mourn their loss. His youngest son is now the son of his university.

Wray, his attorney, says proves the jury was prejudiced by its foreman has been placed before Judge George B Barrett, who has since September 27 last, being considered the condemned man's motion for a new trial. A hearing on the motion is slated for today. Tells Goose Story. This evidence is in the shape of a sworn affidavit to the effect that the foreman of the jury, Albert Grauer of Sears, Roebuck and Co. told the jury the "story about the goose that is related in 'Col. Carter of Cartersville.'" and that he told the defendant's counsel the day after the death verdict, "You know all colored people are liars, and they are artful liars." A second affidavit is sworn to by Rodrick W. Mason, son of Congressman "Billy" Mason, another member of the death jury, asserting that he heard Grauer tell Attorney Wray about telling the Col. Carter story in the jury room. A third affidavit not yet presented in court contains an ad mentioning that he told the story to the jurors. Attorney Wray contends that the "story about Col. Carter of Cartersville" was meant by the jury foreman to prejudice the other members by inciting their race prejudice. Will Carry it Higher. "I maintain," said Mr. Wray, "that justice was intimidated by this story, which is full of race prejudice, and that it had a bearing on the verdict itself. The United States Supreme Court has held that such is the case. There could not have been an impartial verdict rendered after Grauer told the jury that story, and the constitution says that every defendant is entitled to this. If we are not granted a new trial I shall carry the case to the United State Supreme Court if necessary." "Wray asserts five prominent business men, whose names he declines to announce, have interested themselves in the case, and are willing to spend a large sum to fight for the freedom of Wallace. These men, he says, took up the fight after Grauer had signed his affidavit concerning his actions in the jury room, and the obtaining of his name, and prove that the condemned man was not near the saloon at the time of the double murder. Testimony Disproved. The testimony of John Porter, who was the state's star witness, identifying Wallace as the murderer, has been disproved by affidavits of persons of the underworld. Wray says. Wray charges that Wallace was arrested for the murder solely upon Porter's charge and that he now can prove that Porter was not in the saloon when the shootings occurred. Porter was held in jail as a witness, but disappeared following the trial and cannot be found. Wray further charges that he has information that Wallace's arrest was the result of a feud with the police, who sought to "hang something upon SR THE INDUSTRIAL & AGRICULT FURAL DEPARTMENT 3 Is Best Reached by the Efficient Train SERVICE of the ILLINOIS CENTRAL CENTRAL MISSISSippi VALLEY ROUTE RAILROAD CARS.....

For if we sacrifice everything up to and including ourselves. Always we travel at the highest possible rate, literally or figuratively. We cut across lots, jumpences, all to save time. We mutilate our language by abbreviating words and sentences so that we can say more and talk less, thus conserving both time and energy. We used to flock to the horse races because horses could run faster than men, and therefore created more excitement when they competed. But horse races are almost passed because automobiles can go so much faster than horses. For a few years motor races seemed to satisfy our cravings, but now even they are dying out. Their maximum speed has been reached and we are tired of them. In Tennessee during January there were many accidents on the highways, most of them due to the lust for speed. A goodly number of fatalities resulted, hundreds of people were injured. Think of it! We rush about at breathless rate regardless of consequences, seldom learning from the other yellow's disaster. We clip off a minute here, a yard there—and then we clip off a life or two in our race against time. We're so afraid that we will waste a minute or two. Some men bow their heads when the minister offers prayer at Sunday morning worship but they don't know what the preacher is saying. They are devising "always and means" for Monday's activities, and while they close their eyes and assume a devout attitude They are saving time. LISTEN HERE. The Randall Cole Industrial School exists by the grace of God, and the liberality of the late E. W. Cole. In corrigible children, white and colored from all over the state, are sent to this institution. It seems that ample provisions have been made whereby the white children are taught many useful trades, but as yet nothing in that direction has been done for the Negro children except to give them an elementary education, and teach them how to plough and hoe the school's truck patch in the spring and summer. All wijter, these Negro children are practically like, nothing to do except eat, sleep and attend classes. The white pupils are furnished work shops, tools and means to learn useful trades thereby fitting them as useful men and women for the future. Now, the state does its part by all of these inmates, but the white people supplement the money given by the state, thus giving the white children means to an end. The Negroes of Tennessee seem to be "asleep at the switch so far as this institution is concerned." We sometimes doubt if our leading black men know the school exists. As we said before, the state is doing its duty, let us do ours by supplementing the state aid. The Negro children need to learn carpentry, blacksmithing, painting, choemaking, etc., but they can't learn these trades with our workshops and tools. Let our civic organizations take this matter up. The Leechletter bill now pending before the general assembly meets the approval of all the organizations of Nashville, because it is a step in the right direction and should have been taken long ago. Helpless Negroes will welcome its passage, as it will remove the fierce oppression so prevalent. At last it seems there is a balm in "Gilead" that will give the most humble a square deal before the inferior courts of Tennessee. Greedy officials hungry for fees are a menace to the peace and good order of a community. We trust the day is not far distant, when the pesky officials will have to "go away back and sit down." THE BOYS ARE HERE Well, the press gang is here, and they are welcome. The boys got into harness and buckled right down to work. They are an erudite body of men, who are trying to mold opinion for the good of all mankind. Nashville is doing its duty in giving the boys a good time. Every Nashville latch string is hanging on the outside. Come in, "fellers," you're perfectly welcome. We wish we could offer you some good ten year old branch water, but may, not so, you'll have to take a milk shake. Sorry there is nothing doing in the irrigation line, but have a cigar. It may appear tough for the boy who has to work hard, when he is still a mere boy. But in the long run, that will prove the best things that ever happened to him. As far as most of us are concerned, if we do not get on familiar terms with hard work when we are boys, it is certain that we shall never court hard work as we grow along in years. And there is no such thing as success, except through hard work. EGOTISM. Most speeches we hear nowadays are frequently punctured with "T," "mg," "mine". The first man who gets up in a civic organization hereafter and makes an impersonal ad dress will deserve in his honor a torchlight procession headed by a brass band and plenty of red fire along the line of march. Furthermore, the Christian women of the city are giving their best energies to the Y. M. C. A. Again, we say God bless the women of Nashville. They are made of the right stuff and with their valued aid the Y. M. C. A. cannot fail. In permitting the married man to buy liquor and denying that privilege to the bachelor, is it the West Virginia idea that the benedict has the more need for artificial consolation? A New York broker wants Tom Lawson locked up as a perjurer. Isn't that too severe? Why not do a little gentle remonstrating with him for treating the truth miscellaneous? It is possible to work up interest in peace talk, but it is not possible to work up such absorbing interest in peace talk as in war talk. It is heralded from New York that the fancy poultry fad is growing. Doesn't all poultry come under the head of fancy nowadays? The president's announcement to congress that diplomatic relations with Germany have been severed eight to effectually remove the hyphen from all Americans. If Villa isn't smart enough to perceive his opportunity somebody is pretty sure to tell him about it. A splendid notion of chastening may be gained by witnessing two former disciples of Bacchus imbibing grape juice and pretending to relish it. The high cost of courtship is materially increased with the increase in the price of candy. It is important that present enthusiasm for "bone dry" laws shall be transformed later into enthusiasm for enforcement of "bone dry" laws. It must be conceded that the thermometer has taken a drop too much. In view of the prevailing price of pork, congressional and otherwise the groundhog displayed proper wisdom in concluding to keep shy for another six weeks. What makes a colder noise than the creaking of a wagon loaded with two tons of coal at $4.50 plus per ton? Berlin is getting pretty facile in the use of the typewriter, too. Tough luck if the groundhog knows his business, or if one thinks he does, which amounts to the same thing. It will come natural for a few of us to observe "thrift day." Some men who are merely lazy call themselves "unlucky." The Chicago woman who found a diamond in an egg at least got her money's worth. It is to be hoped that the farmers of the United States won't forget to plant potatoes next spring. Why is it women eager to go shopping are unwilling to go mark eting. --- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY FEBRUARY 9, 1917 Anyone who has lived in a small town can tell you the great, heartless city will never corner the sin supply. When a man is sick he never thinks the doctor takes enough interest in him. Some men never amount to much until they are heppecked and steady down. MAYFIELD (KY.)

HAYNES The progress of the Negro race from a moral, intellectual and religious point of view, has been marvelous. It was our claim to intellectual preparedness, and clamor for official recognition in the faculty and on the trustee board that opened the way C. T. HUME Secretary Local Committee of the National Negro Press Association, Circulating Manager National Baptist Union-Review, member National Nebro Press Association. for the American Baptist Home Mission Society, to respectfully withdraw from the state the greater part of its interest in Negro education. The assertion was made and truly so. "That during all these years, Roger Williams has turned out both men and women by the score, who are eminently able to manage and run the university. I HAPPENED THIS WAY. On one cold winter night, eleven years ago, fate decreed and the liquid flames of fire destroyed the buildings in which Roger Williams had been housed for twenty-three years. Rev. Brother Haynes at that time the most influential colored member on the truetee board, when he was told by Mr. Geo Salz, the society's representative that they would not rebuild Roger Williams, and run it as it had been done." Rev. Haynes turned to the Baptist Convention of the state with an appeal. Just how well they responded, we ask for no better witness than Rev. Haynes himself, who will testify that the Baptists not only gave him $5,000.00 toward buying that property for them, (the Negro Baptists) but since then they have given thousands of dollars to build up Roger Williams. The Home Mission Society says that "The Negro Baptist State Convention joined them in the purchase of the property." Now Rev. Haynes says: "This property was bought by the trustee board of Roger Williams University, and the missionary and educational convention approved of the purchase." 1920 [Name not visible] HON, W. L. PORTER Editor East Tennessee News, Vice President National Negro Press Association. If what he says is true, and I have no reason to doubt him, then he was not representing the Negro Baptists while he was collecting money for the University, but was the financial agent of the university and the five thousand dollars given him by the Negro Baptist churches, associations and conventions, was given to the trustees of Roger Williams and they (the trustees) bought the property. Of course this is at variance with what the American Baptist Home Mission Society says. The transfer to the University, the deed of trust reads: "The property hereafter described has been purchased by the American Baptist Home Mission Society of New York and the Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee for the sum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00), each of said organizations having one-half or five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) of the purchase price of said property, but Rev. Haynes says the trustees bought the property, and I believe him, for he says further, "all the money used in the purchase of it passed through his hands." HE KNOWS WHO THE MONEY BELONGED TO He collected it and he paid it out by order of the trustees with Prof. W. J. Johnson and Dr. A. M. Townsend, both acting as secretary and treasurer, during that time. Good for the trustees. They had more money than we thought they had, ($5,000.00). We all everybody wants to know. What became of our money? We gave Rev. Haynes ($5,000.00) but according to his own statement, our money was spent on the buildings, etc., not on the purchase of the ground as we intended, and believed until now. Rev. Haynes, chairman of the trustee board now say, that the Home Mission Society gave over two-thirds of the money to build Roger Williams University and the State Convention gave the other third. In the light of the facts above stated, I care not who wrote the deed nor who the trustees are. Roger Williams University does not belong to the Negro Baptists of Tennessee. I am surprised at Rev. Haynes saying they are satisfied with the deception played on the loyal Negro Baptists in this transaction. If he has taken the $5,000.00 we gave him and paid it on the property in the name of the trustees of Roger Williams, it was wrong and a breach of trust. We don't believe he did that, then if he paid the money of the trustees on the ground, we took advantage of us, for we gave our money to be paid on the ground, and not on the building. We will not be satisfied with the simple statement that the property belongs to the Negro Baptists. With the Baptist this is no small matter and it is not the time for Rev. Haynes to indulge in reflecting epiphets and ininstructions at those of us who are dealing with a principle in this matter, for there will be no let up until the responsibility for this loss to the Negro Baptists has been placed on the guilty party. If Rev. Haynes didn't know that the Negro Baptists were being cheated he ought to conceive a seek to have them come into their own. We lost Roger Williams through Rev. Wm. Haynes. Would he not turn our Publishing House over to the Northern Society if he was in control of it. SUMMIT BAPTISTS LAY CHURCH CORNER-STONE Summit, N. J. Feb. 5—Under the able leadership of the Rev. D. W. Wisher, D. D., former ppostor, and founder of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church and of the Baptist Temple New York City, the colored people of Summit. N. J. are destined to have a beautiful edifice in which to worship their Lord, the building alone costing $10,000. Surely, Dr. Wisher and all the colored people of Summit are glad. They are still rejoicing because the corner-stone of the only colored church in Summit was laid Sunday, Jan. 21, 1917. amidst great pomp and ceremony with a blinding snow storm as God's blessing wherewith to Christen it. The white churches of the neighborhood, especially the Presbyterian, the Episcopalian and the Methodist Episcopal, have aided the colored people, either directly or indirectly through the kindness of their members, in their splendid effort to build a suitable house of worship. Many of the most prominent white men of Jersey have given liberally towards the building fund. At the present meeting place of the Fountain Baptist Church, 467 Springfield avenue, the services were held with Dr. Krager presiding. Among the many speakers were ministers from the surrounding towns and the exposter of the Fountain Baptist Church. Then the white brethren from the dierent churches expressed PORTER, Vice President National Negro Press a desire to see a work so nobly undertaken advance. As a finishing touch to the service C. H. De Sayles, a layman from New York, spoke of the admirable monuments left in New York by the Rev. D. W. Wisher. One in West 53rd street, the other in West 132nd street. He also spoke of Dr. Wisher's knack for getting money from the white people, due to his upright Christian character and to his honesty and frankness of heart. Concluding his remarks, he stated that Dr. Wisher can and will perform a wonderful service for the people at Summit, the same kind he performed while pastor of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. The laying of the corner-stone of the new building on Chestnut avenue was conducted by Widows' Son Lodge No. 54, F. and A. Masons of Marion, N. J., under the Most Worthy Grand Master Isaac A. Lawrence, M. D. The corner-stone service was short and impressive, the snow adding color to the ceremony. The contents of the corner-stone box were an Amsterdam News, money of various denominations, a letter fro m Rev. McDaniel and a Bible given to Dr. Morgan, of New York, on his graduation from Princeton University. This Bible was a relic in the Morgan family, but for the sake of a dear friend, the Rev. D. W.

St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 7.—The bright oasis in present day discussion of the issues between the temperance people, and others, is afforded in the position being taken by leading brewers of the country who are promoting an active sentiment antagonistic to some of the abuses of the saloon. Temperance forces have centered their attack mainly upon hard drinking, whiskey and its attendant spiritous partners, but upon mals, including beer, and the lighter wines. The whole question would be speedily settled if the brewers would break away from the distillers. That this is being done is evidenced by some recent statements coming from the brewers. For instance, in an inter view with a reporter for a St. Louis daily newspaper, late in November, August A. Busch, of that city, one of the most prominent brewers of the United States, said that much might be done to countered a prohibition sentiment by countered enforcement of all excuse laws, discontinence of bars, saloons, abolition of treating, and the elimination of the lawless saloon keeper, through the co-operation of brewers to that end. much might prohibition element of face of bars eating, and less saloon operation of This Stylish Suit Free We want YOU to get one these suits absolutely FREE so you can show it to your friends.

It is a pity that the South has no more governors with the courage and good sense of Governor A. O. Stanley of Kentucky, who rushed by special train from the capital to prevent the imminent lynching of a Negro on trial for murder.

A bulletin from the office of the Standard Life Insurance Company at Atlanta, Ga, for the week ending Feb. 3rd, shows that the state of Tennessee led last week in the amount of policies written. This state, through its several agents, of which Dr. J. E. Wallace of this city is one of the representatives, Mr. B. M. Roddy and Mr. G. W. Adkins of Memphis are the other two reports $25,250 worth of policies for the past week, enabling the volunteer state to take the lead in so far as Standard Life reports are concerned, for the first time since the certificates were issued to do business in this state. The return of Dr. Wallace from East Tennessee where he has been for the past month, brought renewed life and matured plans for a vigorous campaign in Middle Tennessee, which is to extend back East to the border of Virginia. "We want to teach our advantages to be derived in throwing a safeguard and protection around their families by taking a policy in the Standard Life Insurance Company, which is the only proper thing for a man or woman to do who wishes to leave their dependent ones in a good shape, even though they die," declared Dr. Wallace to a Globe representative. He continued by saying he had just been surprised beyond his ability to express at the hearty reception that the Standard Life had been given in upper East Tennessee. "Bristol is one town in Tennessee where there is co-operation in its fullest sense on the part of the colored people under the leadership of Mr. Robt. Clay and the members of the Business League", declared Mr. Wallace. WILL YOU BE ONE AMONG THE 5000 AT Ryman Auditorium AT 3 P. M. SUNDAY You Are Invited, So Come and Bring Some one with you.

NEGRO NORMOL WINS CORN CONTEST PRIZE RECEIVES LOVING CUP IN COMPETITION WITH MANY COLORED INSTITUTIONS. Indicative of the work, both in theory and practice, that is being done at the Agricultural and Industrial State Normal for Negroes, the institution has just been awarded the first prize and a hansome loving cup in a corn contest that was held at Tuskegee Institute, the famous industrial school which was founded by Booker T. Washington. This announcement has Just been made public by the president of the school, Prof. William J. Hale, who received notice of the success of the local institution in the contest through a communication from the director of the department of agriculture at Tuskegee. The annual farmers' conference and agricultural exhibition at the noted Alabama institution is one of the most largely attended and patronized movements of its kind in this country. Many of the best schools take part in the exhibit each year and demonstration agents and agricultural experiment stations are represented from many sections. Some of the nation's most progressive Negro farmers also enter these contests. The work was begun by the late Booker T. Washington, who had made the movement nation-wide in its scene. Early in the history of the Tennessee Normal, which is the youngest school of its kind, North or South, the students developed special aptitude and fondness for the work which had been mapped out for them along agricultural and industrial lines. The school has won sign praise each year for its success in all of its departments, and long since has been regarded as one of the very best institutions of the kind operated by any state. Much of the credit for this record of achievement is given to President Hale. In the session at the local school each year is the most largely attended of any similar institution in the country, and for several years its various other activities have stamped the normal as being one of the most useful and constructive educational institutions for the race—Banner. ---
