Great Ca GREA Citizens Nashville is about to answer the oft-repeated question over the country, "Is Nashville going to fail in her effort for a great Colored Y. M. C. A?" This question has become more pointed to the colored citizens of Nashville since the beginning of last October of the $100,000 building for the colored men and boys in Atlanta. Louisville, Washington, Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Chicago, Cin- REV. PRESTON TAYLOR, General of Division B of the Y. M. C. A. Campaign now on for cash and cinnati and Kansas City have provided such buildings already. New York, Brooklyn, Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Columbus, Ohio, are to begin soon on buildings to cost from $100,000 to $200,000. From the beginning of this great building movement in 1911, the eyes of the country have been on Nashville and Atlanta because of their strategic positions as educational centers and their enviable reputations S. H. JOHNSON, Treasurer. Captain of Division B. for thrift and progress. It took Atlanta five years and nine months to answer, this being the exact time between her campaign and the actual beginning of the new building. But there is no more question about Atlanta's building; the concrete and steel frame work is to be completed DR. J. L. LEACH, Secretary Division "A" of Y. M. C. A. Campaign. by April first and the building is to be ready for occupancy in November. From every prospect Nashville's answer will be given in the next eight days in favor of one of the NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. best of these equipments yet secured. The plan is to so renovate the Duncan hotel property as to make it thoroughly up-to-date and adequate for the colored men and boys of the city. The showing made by the Nashville colored people in the past three years under the leadership of Rev. H. A. Boyd and his committee has not been a bad one by any means. The $20,000 to be raised in the present effort is to supplement what has been raised already to bring the total for the colored citizens up to $30,000. The white citizens are raising $45,000 for the same purpose, making $75,000; the amount the city has been asked to raise for the colored building. M.

More than 500 colored women were electrified by the encouraging words of Miss Will Allen Dromgoole, the well-known newspaper correspondent and author of many volumes, who addressed them at the special meeting held in the auditorium of the Duncan hotel, the recently purchased building for the Colored Y. M. C. A., Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock on the occasion of their second public rally for the benefit of the Colored Y. M. C. A. work among the men. The introduction of Miss Dromgoole to the audience was greeted with prolonged applause because the women considered it a rare treat to have her in their midst, and the rapt attention given her words of counsel, encouragement and assurances of success bespeak the utmost confidence and confidence they have for her. Miss Dromgoole's most pertinent declaration was that "The Colored Y. M. C. A. work will succeed in Nashville." She declared further that no good work started among colored men with the active help and Night the were A. A. W. A. L. D. P. D. Har. D. Gen. men; for S. S. ar. of women the ar.ary. this most success- in part joy encouragement of the colored women, as is being exhibited here, can fail. "I am glad to see that you are engaged to help the young men and boys. We should all learn the lesson of doing something for some one else. We should have something to live for other than ourselves," said Miss Dromgoole among other good things. Miss Ada F. Morgan, of the Fireside School, on Gay street, was also an interesting speaker along lines of the duty of parents to boys and young men. Miss Morgan is a favorite worker among the colored people and her assurances of help were gladly received by the women. Following the speaking the captains of the various teams reported $778.5 in cash, with several teams yet to report. During the rally an interesting talk was also made by Secretary J. B. Watson, of Atlanta, who will be in charge of the campaign among the colored people, which begins Thursday. He reviewed the plans by which the campaign will be conducted, predicting its success on the great interest being manifested by the women. It will be recalled that since the organization of the women not more than a month ago more than $400 in cash has been turned in by them to date. This is splendid evidence of interest accompanied by efficiency. In this connection the work of several individual workers is particularly notable. To date Wm. W. N. Sanders has turned in $61, her near est competitor being Mrs. Dan Battle, who has turned in $30. New records along this line are expected in the next few days, as the rally is increasing, in winter.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEWOR PRESS ASSOCIATION Nashille, Tenn., Mar. 23. MARCH. Notwithstanding that people move and settle for the year with the installation of March and get ready for plowing and seeding and other things incident to spring, the month invariably proves disappointing. It is the oile month $t_4$ during which winter lingers painfully in the lap on spring. We approach March wist fully and with outstretched hands caressingly, but it never fails to offer mean and mulish resentment, defeating fond wishes and brightening odent hope. After five months of snorting winter we rather look to March to introduce vernal sunshine, warm fertile fields and arouse nature to renew plant life. But March talks. It can deal out as much snow and cold as any winter month if it feels like it, and it usually feels like it, and it usually feels like it, and it holds the top record in production of high voltage wind. We get ready on spring March 1, but it doesn't happen until April 1. Like the state of Nevada, March was put in just to fill up. You can always depend on Kansas to go to the limit. While other states are prohibiting the sale of cigarette, Kansas is about to penalize their use in public places. This is logical, whether or not it is practical. "Whenever a man gets old enough to realize how little he readily knew in his youth he ought it by presuming to be qualified to give advice." Sometimes it takes a whole month for March to run the gamut, and sometimes the stunt is accomplished in a single day. Nowadays it is as hard to figure out the value of the news by the size of the headlines as it is to estimate the age of the gift by the length of her gift. A man can't make much of a splurge nowadays if he equals the French fried potatoes and onions in ordering the eichhorn meat. The backbone of March must be badly bruised, at least. You can't convince a boy that it hurts you worse to punish him than it hurts him to be punished. A boy is no fool. When a man is 20 he expects to get rich, and by the time he is 40 he hopes to avoid the poorhouse. Money no longer talks in the food markets. It merely whispers. Willis Burrell, son of old "Father" Burrell, was here last week. It was his first visit south. He didn't admiire Tennessee's bone dry laws, neer da we, but it seems to us he ought to sorter have read and papers and concealed at least a "half man" for the benefit of ye editor. An optimist is a man who thinks he has discovered a 5-cent cigar as good as the 10-cent brands. The farmer who takes a good hog to market these days brings home with him a $50 bill. Alsa it takes a good share of such a bill for the rest of us to take home a pork roast. The shoot on sight policy is supported by David Harum's well known rule: "Do to the other fellow what he is tryin' to do to you, and do it to him fust." The man who sold his hogs at $12 has finally decided that it was an unlucky number. "Old Beck" is now out of winter quarters and has resumed business at the same old stand—in front of the plow. --- And, remember your unpaid pledge to the Y. M. C. A. Furthermore the days of the succulent strawberry draws nearer and nearer. The Middle Tennessee Teacher's Association should receive a well-merited welcome when they meet here a few days hence. It is now in order for "Old Sport" to take his diurnal nap along the sunny side of the road and chase automobiles. THE MISSING LINE. Dear Mr. Miller: Considering your inestimable worth as our newspaper editor, aside from your portrayal or characteristics that mark you a helpful asset to our commonwealth, I think it would, indeed, be a display of gross ingratitude on our part, should all of us allow to pass without complaint but you suffered at the hands of a white officer of our city, also the faulty opinion rendered by the City Commission in the case. How hopeful and expectant were we that the injustice done you would be impartially avenged by the ones who sat in judgment on your case! And our anxiety increased when we read of the lengthy taking of deposition and the unusual time spent in deliberation on a case as was yours. But, alas, the evidence was insufficient, in the opinion of the Commission, and your assailant was acquitted, notwithstanding the valiant plea and forceful argument offered by your able representative at the bar. Hon. J. C. Napier, and the substantial testimony of the witnesses in your behalf. And, too, while meditating on this affair, I am inclined to lose time in supposing that the tables had been reversed. What would have been the consequences had a Negro be brutally offended a white man under similar conditions? We have never been any lengthy taking of witnesses, summoning of witnesses etc., to ascertain his guilt or to obtain a just verdict? This is easily answered—no. But, to the contrary an immediate decision would have been meted out, and ere this he would have been— "On the road somewhere." "On the road somewhere." But I need not dwell longer on this well versed phase of the case, for by observations of the past we have been taught that it is no infrequent occurrence for a white man to smash a knife in the city of Opportunity and "get by" in so doing; especially if this white man is an officer of the law. Each day Negros are wrongfully abused by white men, of which we hear little or nothing because of their obscure and humble standing, and except for the fact of your personality your case, perhaps, would have been best view of. However, the missing link is what impresses me most in this as in similar cases among Negros: Facts authenticate hear evidence that you were not deservedly supported in your fight for the conviction of your assailant; would have been laid out that compromises sought was abetted by some unseen When a Negro assaults a white man, the white citizens, to a man, are afire for a just conviction of the offender. When a white man assaults a Negro, who should not the same spirit prevail, in like access among us to a similar crime. Truth, our missing link is unity. A. G. Papers. CITY ITEMS.

Brief Bits of News and Comments on Men and Women SOCIALIST ASSAILS RACE Philadelphia, Pa., Mar. 22.—Charles Edward Russell, author and Socialist, praises France because "the narrow, blind hatred of race prejudice is unknown there." Mr. Russell spoke on "Race Prejudices" in the Broad Street Theatre under the auspices of the Socialist Literary Society. The speaker declared race prejudices were rampant in this country and decried the tendency of the white race to consider itself superior to other races of the world. This country, he said, was constantly bungling the Negro problem. He denounced the lynchings in the southern states, and added: SAVINGS BANK 1 BOOK JR 2017 s=Ka ZTEC BLOOD AND NERVE ONIC Vegetable Compound poison.

"Unless race prejudices are eliminated in this country the crust of the volcano on which we are sitting will give way every soon." "France," continued Mr. Russell, "has given the Negro true citizenship. In France liberty, equality and fraternity are not hollow meckeries and empty dreams. In the Chamber of Deputies black men sit side by side with whites. France has never designed to draw a color line. "The Negroes rallied to France's colors when she was threatened.

The audience was struck with Dr. White's forceful manner of address and the many practical illustrations given. Dr. White did not take a particular text, but gave the student body and friends valuable points on the "Essential needs of the Human Race." He said he did not bring a message to any one race, but a message to the human family. He urged the Negro youth to educate himself, to be efficient, for the human race was greatly in need of "Able Leaders," he also urged them to accumulate, to have something, be something, learn to respect the womanhood of our race, and the Bible. Mrs. W. J. Hale entertained with the regular monthly social Saturday evening in honor of the Fourth Year class.

Austin Lays Blame for Bad Saloons on Legislators. Milwaukee, Wis., Mar. 22.—The brewers of the United States are earnest in their desire for reform in the retail liquor trade. They stand ready to back any reasonable movement for the enforcement of existing laws, and, if these do not cover the need, they are ready to aid in the enactment of laws that will. They believe, however, that if the existing statutes are strictly enforced, they will be found, generally speaking, to be adequate. The view expressed to a representative of The Christian Science Monitor of Boston by W. H. Austin, assistant to the president of the United States Brewers' Association and secretary of the Wisconsin Brewers' Association, speaking bots for himself and Col. Gustave Pabst of Milwaukee, president of the United States Brewers' Association. Mr. Austin was explaining on behalf of Col. Pabst the latter's assertion before the Cleveland meeting of the brewers of the country, held recently, that he stood for prompt prosecution of violators of the liquor laws, greater discrimination on the part of local authorities in granting the liquor laws, was said in the interview, it was understood, had the sanction of the lead of the United States Brewers Association. "The whole question centers primarily around law enforcement," said Mr. Austin. "If the laws are strictly carried out then the objectable saloons will have to go or cease to he objectionable. But it is to be remembered that the brewers, while ready to aid in every way, are not the ones on whose shoulders fall the duty of seeing that the laws are obeyed. Their business is on the same basis as every other business. It is no more their duty to tart prosecutions against their trade than it is for the individuals of any other business, say the wholesale grocers, to start prosecutions against the men who buy from them." LAWRENCEBURG Practically all the month of February was devoted to a union revival with St. John M. E. Church and the Missionary Baptist Church Dr. J. B.

Immediately after the eleven o'clock service there will be a special meeting of the congregation on very important business. All the communicants of the church are expected to be present. Tuesday evening at 7:30 Special Sermon b vile Ven. Thomas D. Windale, Archdeacon of Nashville. We cannot get over the shock of Mr. Ransom's death. He was our dear beloved teacher in this town for a number of years. He had engraved his image in the hearts of every citizen of this community, both white and black. To know T. T. Ransom was to love him. We think of Prof. Ransom and with tear stained eyes and an aching heart we can only say: Over the river he beckons to us. The loved one who has crossed the other side. The gleam of his snowy robe we see. But his voice is drowned by the rustling tide. And now he's walking the streets of gold. He is walking with the angel's white; He crossed in the twilight gray and cold. And the phee mist has hid him from our sight. Yet when we cross Jordan and reach the shore. Where we'll dawn, forever more, Though our loss is heaven's gain, There we'll see him once again. Pain and sorrow will be oer. We will mend to part no more. Sleep on dear leader we'll see you after a while. Sunday being fair we had a nice time with the little folks in Sunday school. Our congregation was very small ordering to the funeral of Prof. Ransom at Shelbyville. Rev. Neil Simmons filled the pulpit for us Sunday at 11:30 while our pastor, Rev. Hawkins, tended the funeral. He preached a noble sermon. Bro. Simmons will some day be hard to beat. Our prayer meetings are fine. Yesterday at the ladies board meeting we had BELL BUCKLE. a jubilee time. Rev. Hawkins prayed a noble prayer for the only sinner in the house. God showed to us that we were still his children by answering our prayers in the conversion of Mrs. Melissa Johnson. We are not waiting to carry on revival to save souls, but are trying to save them every day and are succeeding. Mr. George Hoover is still very sick, also Miss Letha Murphy. Mrs. Jones is some better.

THEUSHIAIS PREVAILS ALL OVER THE STATE, PYTHIAN GRAND LODGE OFFICERS VISIT EAST AND WEST TENNESSEE. TEMPLE RALLY FREELY ENDORSED The interest in the great Python Temple Rally is increasing daily in all sections of the state. On Friday night, March 9th, the Grand Chancellor, Dr. J. P. Crawford and the Deputy Grand Chancellor, A. W. Fite wore in Memphis, where the Grand Chancellor spoke to a large audience in the Church Auditorium. His remarks were met with great enthusiasm. County are reported as being in per- The Lodges in Memphis and Shelby fec harmony with the plans of the Temple Commission. From Memphis the party visited Jackson, where the Grand Chancellor spoke Sunday afternoon to a crowded house. L. E. Brown, secretary of the Endowment Board made a stirring address in which he dwelt upon our ability to meet all just claims. His records to date show that all claims have been settled up to the end of the last quarter. The Lodges and Courts at Jackson are preparing to send in a large amount to the Grand Keeper of Records and Seal the day after the Grand rally. The idea of a simultaneous state-wide rally for Temple purposes appeals to every local Pythian in the State. At Jackson the party was cared for by J. L. Licht, J. W. Lane, J. A. Fuller, and our Past Grand Lodge Officer, J. H. Trumble. From Jackson the party went to Milan, where they were entertained by Dr. S. W. Polk, Rev. Mitchum and Grand Trustee, A. S. Pyles. At Milan the members of the order expressed themselves as anxious to take part in the rally, and gave William Chairman of the Pythian Temple Chairman and L. E. Brown, Secretary of the Endowment Board accompanied the Grand Chancellor and the Grand Deputy on this trip. Gen Prestor Taylor visited Knoxville Tuesday and after inspecting the company at that place held a joint meeting with the Lodge and Courts and aroused them over the project of Temple buildings. Gen. Taylor was met by the members of the company. Past Grand Master at Arms, John Singleton and Knight Arthur Hazeen. member of the endowment. Board made arrangements for the speaking. The general was well received and succeeded in making the plans of the commission clear to the members of both Lodges and Courts. Mrs Corp E. Burk had a good member of the members of the Courts of the city present. The Grand Worthy Counselor is deeply interested in the movement to erect a temple in Tennessee that will do justice to the magnitude of the order. From Knoxville, Gen. Taylor went at Chattanooga, where he was royally entertained. The interest in Chattanooga is as apparent as any place in the state. Their slogan is, "Watch Chattanooga." Grand Deputy A. S. Banks, Shr. R. W. Allen and J. D. Fagala, members of the Commission had out a large crowd to hear the message of Gen. Taylor. The visits of the Grand Lodge Of officials to the various centers makes it very clear that the membership in the state is solidly in favor of the steps taken for the benefit of the Order and the race. THE LATE HON. J. E. BUSH. P. H. It was exceedingly pleasing to the editor of the People's Defender and to the friends generally of the late J. E. Bush to see recognition of him in the Crisis. The last number of that splendid journal among other notable characters who have fought hard and long in the interest of the race carried a cut of our own distinguished but lamented townman. The life and work of Mr. Bush was such that his friends and neighbors who knew him best, and who were in elbow touch with him daily are delighted to find others giving to him that recognition belonging to the Stuplent sons of Ham. It is a recognition justly due him, and we believe that his praises should be sung, not only by the Order of which he was the genius and founder, but of the people generally, for he was a general benefactor of the Negro race. We have often felt that the Negro hath not given the honor and defence to their distinguished dead that they should, they too early forget them. It is a pleasing thing indeed to note that the Order of which he was the founder is planning to erect a monument to him. In this we feel that the Order should not only take part, but the citizens generally, not because the Order is not a monument to his grave, but because of his public spiritedness, because he was a man of all the people. The editor of the People's Defender suggests that the Order give an opportunity for his friends and admirers to chip in; even though the contributions be small to the fund that is to go for that monument. The editor of the People's Defender, if such an opportunity is given hereby subscribed $5.00 to such a fund. He believes that it is right, that it is deserving, and he would like to have his name enrolled among the names of the hundreds who are eager to do him honor, for he was to the Muggle Templars of America what Booker T. Washington was to Tuskegee, and what H. B. Hoyd is to the Negro Baptist Publishing House, and What Benjamin J. Davis is to the Negro Odd Fellowism of Georgia, and what Scribble A. Jordan is to Taboe and What Schido A. Jones is to law, especially as it relates to Arkansas. Let the public not forget their strong men, and while that such magazines as the Crisis and other great journals are paying righteous tribute to this great man, let not the people of his own home be derelict to duty along this line.

Ap LONG HAIR THAT IS SOFT, SMOOTH AND GLOSSY Quinade, Invented by a New York Chemist, Stimulates and Nourishes the Roots of the Hair Just as a good fertilizer nourishes the soil and produces a rich crop of wheat or corn, so will the proper remedy create a healthy condition of the scalp, and promote the growth of the hair. QUINADE stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, thereby causing a healthy growth. QUINADE was invented by a New York chemist, and is made under the personal supervision of a registered pharmacist of over 25 years experience; this is a guarantee that QUINADE is as near pharmaceutically correct as can be. The ingredients are selected with great care, and nothing enters this high class preparation unless it is of the highest purity. Seeby's QUINAOASO, the ideal shampoo, is an excellent aid to QUINADE in keeping the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It should be used about every two weeks. Both articles are sold by druggists and dealers at 25c each or will be sent direct by Seeby Drug Co. to the address below. Write for sample of QUUN-ADE, mentioning the name of this paper. (Adv.)

FORMER NASHVILLE TEACHER RAISED BY CRITICS. Chicagá. Ill., March 20.—Miss Maude J. Roberts, formerly a teacher at Walden University, now Chicago's sweet soprano singer, appeared in recital Wednesday of last week at Lincoln Center, under the management of Cary B. Lewis. She was assisted by Roy Tibbs. Washington, D. C., pianist. It was largely attended by a most appreciative and discriminative audience. She rendered a program in French, German, English and Italian. Says Herman Devries of the Chicago Evening American: "Miss Roberts interpretation is refined and graceful, and she carries her husband's music with confidence and modesty of her manner, even before she has sung a note. Of the rare charm and tenderness of Miss Roberts it is impossible to write too glowing praise." The critic also praised the wonderful technique of Roy Tibbs, a graduate of musical department, Fisk University. MRS. CORA HALL CONVALESCENT.

Social Media Readers, some few weeks ago I wrote you a few suggestions showing how the farmer and the townmen could aid in reducing the high cost of living. In this article I relate that the use of vacant lots and other available land about the home were among the surest means of solving the problem. We note this week through the Banner of March 6th that Mayor Ewing, Mr. R. W. Bratton and other real estate men of our city have offered their support in this effort. They estimate that there are five hundred acres of vacant land in our city which could be used for gardening, etc, and that there likely will be no hesitation on the part of the owners and real estate men in letting such land out to those desiring to make themselves instrumental in reducing this high and strenuous cost of living Reader, (my people) lit us not be slothful. Let us also apply for this right that is now being given us. Plant a little of many varieties of vegetables and save your cash dimes for fuel etc. We need it. Information about gardening condition and to plant, kind for season, etc. I will gladly furnish it to you. Again I say, setze the opportunity. All Steel Equipment. Handsome and Homelike.

As spring seems to be near, the farmer is planning for March and April in which to prepare their ground for a large crop. There is a spirit abroad in the South which will have the effect of diversifying the crops. The farmer will not again depend solely upon one crop. War has brought with it a warning, and has the same time taught wholesome lesson. The winter weather has more to do with the nature of the summer crops than one would at first think. The farmer watches the weeks of winter patiently. He knows what dry winter means and what plenty of rain and snow and moisture will accomplish in the coming hot months of summer. That we have had our own special brand of weather this winter we cheerfully acknowledge. That we have had thrust upon us several other brands we reluctantly admit. It has been for the best, however, for nature is a watchful mother and provides for her children as she thinks best. Winter is now nearly at an end. The flowers are beginning to awaken the sleeping earth. We must be prepared to make use of every available hoe and every plough to be had in this land of ours. DEATH OF REV J. E.

If the Vanguard is to be credited from the 7th to the 10th of May is to be a great time among the old line Baptists of the state, for they are to hold an encampment in Little Rock. This of course means that they are struggling to push forward the work that they have in hand. It is the prayer and hope of the editor that thep may have a very great meeting, for the editor has never grown so wicked in his thoughts, or bad in his imagination that he could not hope for the well-being of his brethren, even those who fought him to the bitterest end, for he is liberal enough and Christian enough to believe that men may differ and yet be honest. Let us pray that they may have a great meeting, but the greatest meeting among Baptists in this neck of the woods is to take place just before that, on Friday and Saturday before the fifth Sunday in April, at Mt. Morish Baptist Church, Scott, Ark. This is the Great GET-TO-GETHER-MEETING of the Progressive Baptists of the Union District. This is to be the central meeting of the year. Plans are already under way to make this the banner meeting among Baptists, and if reports be true, and we have every reason to be believe that they are true, many of the old line Baptists, tired and worn out by bossism, backs bleeding from the use of the big stick in the hands of the bosses, will be on hand in that particular meeting. The doors are wide open, and it is hoped that every Discussion led by Miss Elle M. Johnson, Supervisor of Davidson County Public Schools. Music. "Industrial Education as a Home Builder"—Dr. T. W.

Extensive Courses free Baptist whom Christ hath made free, and who believe in the freedom and regularly of the Baptist church, who has manhood enough to throw off the yoke of oppression will be present in that meeting. Many of the progressive leaders of the state will doubtless be present. The aim and need in the Baptist ranks, and we of course refer to the ranks of the Progressive Baptists, is very urgent. There is much work to be done, many plans to be made for the future, for indeed this year holds the solution of the stability and permanency and progression of the Baptists of the state. Many difficult problems that confront the Progressive Baptists must be solved this year. Recognition must be wrung from the old line Baptists whose doors are tightly closed and barred against them. We repeat that recognition must be wrung from them, or plans must be laid for operation along independent and progressive lines. If there cannot be a plan, a system of co-operation inaugurated, then there will have to be new plans laid for the new lines of work unless the Progressive Baptists intend to dissolve, stoop their necks, bend their bodies, and walk like cowards back into camp of the old line oppressors whom they have defied. There can be no doubt about the stubbornness of the old line Baptists, their determination to ignore everything progressive, the strongest and most powerful men in the Progressive camps is ostracized, ignored, legislated against. The orders have gone down from the state convention to shut the doors hard and fast in the face of every man who believes in Baptist regularity and freedom. These orders have been accepted and affirmed by the different associations; these orders plainly suggest to any thinking mind the demand for the absolute and uncompromising surrender of the Progressive Baptist forces, or a complete freeze-out. This can only be met by the submarine attacks, the counter freezing out, the counter planning the counter ability of the Progressives. Had Germany quietly submitted to the blockade of England whose ships stood on guard against the ingoing of any foodstuffs into Germany, England would have starved Germany out, and forced her to an ignominious surrender, but Germany in order to save her own scalp, to defend her own people, to keep in tact her own nationality, instituted a counter blockade by establishing a war zone and filling it with submarines. That is just what we have got to do as Progressives against the starve out policy of the enemy. They have established a blockade against the Progressives, and the Progressives must answer White, President Walden University, Nashville. Address—"A Generation of Race Adjustment," Dr. Walter S.

The Progressives have either got to plan, watch, fight and pray and show themselves capable of advancing along new lines if they cannot decently co-operate with the old Baptists or they must be swallowed up by them. So the meeting to be held in April, the Get-together-meeting to be held at Mount Moriah, the Rev. A. L. Porter, pastor, is to be the greatest meeting of the year. Let everybody get ready, little and big, old and young, get ready for the great meeting. It is not that we object to their doing well, but we must see to it that we keep in tact our own forces and build up our own ground. Let us get together and prove the steel of which we are made.

BIRTHDAY DINNER A birthday dinner was gien at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Harry Smith, February 24th for Rev. Smith and DR. GILBERT LAID TO REST MANY NOBLE TRIBUTES College Jacksonville, Fla., March 17.—The passing of a noble and useful character and the close of a notable and vigorous career was duly noted in this city Tuesday, when hundreds of the best people in the community, with visitors from many southern states paid tribute to the memory of Matthew W. Gilbert, noted Negro preacher, educator and publicist. Dr. Gilbert was one of the most prominent men of the race, having been actively engaged for more than thirty years in the unfit of the race. Successfully occupying stations in the religious and educational life of the people, his work drew tributes from men and women from both races, from the North and the South, and his passing occasioned one of the most remarkable funerals that Jacksonville has ever seen. It was remarkably coincident, as Dr. John E. F. Burford pointed out that Dr. Burford should close his career as pastor of the same church—the First Baptist Church of Nashville at which he began his ministerial career twenty-five years ago. During the interim, Dr. Gilbert has been engaged successfully as a pastor in New York City, in Jacksonville, Fla., and in Knoxville, Tennessee. He had been head of two educational institutions in Florida, one of which, the Florida Baptist College he founded; president of Selma University, the great Baptist educational institution at Selma, Alabama, and at the close of his care, besides being pastor of the First Baptist Church at Nashville, was dean of the Theological Department of Roger Williams University. The remarkable place which he has held in the life of the people was attested by the large number of letters and telegrams that poured into the home at Nashville and to church leaders in Jacksonville. Remote from his active career, the message from the First Baptist Church at Miami, Florida, was typical of the many and summed up the feeling of hundreds of leaders throughout the country who Dr. Libbert's. death. This telegram reads: "If any consolation can be afforded the Baptist family of America, under the heavy a_action as it has just experienced in the death of Dr. M. W. his son Thomas Lee Bracy. A few of their many friends were present to enjoy the good things. Among the out of town guests who were present were Miss Mattie Greer, Mrs. Maggie Smith, both of Nashville, and a host of other relatives and friends. The guest number 42. A six course menu was served including chicken, cakes, salads, fruits wines, etc. guess I had had a lot of watering in today. Everybody enjoyed it. —Murreebreech Sentinel. Joint Meeting of Boards. The Stewardesses and daughters of Conference convened in joint session Monday, March 19th at the home of Miss Kissi Armstrong on East Castle St., at 2:30 p. m. Mrs. Nancy Whittaker acted as chairman for both boards. After the usual form of opening the meeting was open for business. The presidents outlined the mission properly can be seen on the boards and印章 and notes were sought through the different discussions how and in what way to put their plan in action. After a general discussion by some of the different members as well as the pastor, Rev. A. P. Gray and securing a plan that met the approval of all, the business session ended. Miss Armstrong assisted by Miss Hattie Hickman served to the delight of all a delicious menu of three courses. After feasting to their hearts content, the board extended to Miss Armstrong a vote of thanks for her hospitality. They adjourned to meet at Allen's Chapel, March 26th.

On May 6th, which is the first Sunday in May at 2:30 p. m., the First Baptist Church will hold a special service in honor of their pastor, Rev. A. C. Kennon, B. S., B. D., who will graduate from the Meharry Medical College, Department of Medicine, May 3rd, 1917. A grand program will be rendered composed of local talent, in which all the leading churches of the city will be represented. A special invitation is extended to the pastors who are very friendly disposed toward Dr. Kennon. Dr. Kennon has been a very hard student all of his life, having received the degree of B. B. and B. S. in 1906 and 1911, respectively and is now on the verge of receiving the degree of M. D. at the hands of Dr. G. W. Hubbard, M. D., who is the president of Meharry Medical College. We are glad to say that Dr. Kennon and his wife, Mrs. S. B. Kennon have endeared themselves in the First Baptist Church so much since their stay here. Not only the first Baptist Church but all the people with whom they have come in contact. The deacons say that the church has done under the leadership of Rev. Kennon more than it has done in twenty years. As he is a lawyer for his people, the church of which he is pastor, thinks he is progressive in his ideas and is willing and ready to help him to the front. A Correspondent. — Murfreesboro Sentiment. Gilbert, it must come from on high. Our own sense of religion and our duty of resignation to a power that is beyond our control, and a will that is ever beneficently directed toward our good must uphold the bereaved family and the denomination in this most difficult pleasure to dwell upon the virtues and accomplishments of the late Dr. Gilbert.

Ford, pastor of Bethel Baptist Institutional Church delivered the funeral oration.

Robinson, S. A. Owens, C. Brown, W. C. Brown, S. M. Hall, Birmingham, Alabama and W. D. Vann. Dr. Gilbert was buried mid the tears of the whole people. He left a widow, a sister, two sons and a daughter. FRANKLIN. The Canaanian Art Club met at the residence of Mrs. Fount Brown, our A MESSAGE TO YOUNG MEN. Some one had said: "To be a young man is a blunder, to be an old man is a regret," both of which I regard as a falsehood. To be a young man is an opportunity; to be an old man is the grace of looking back over past victory. This subject comes to me possibly because I have had for the last few weeks the privilege of studying young men, and of all men they have the opportunity of looking forth unto the future; vast opportunities lie before them and these opportunities should be looked into seriously because their future life depends upon it. I was invited a few days ago to be the spiritual advisor of a young man who had committed an awful crime for his age. A young man of only twent four years who was thoughtless enough to kill a woman and child because he thought the woman had money; but in this effort to get this money he trapped himself and lost his life. I admit all men should want to have money but they should desire to obtain it honestly. This lesson he to obtain it honestly. This lesson he did not learn until it was too late. He was caught, convicted and electrocuted last Tuesday morning at seven o'clock. I labored with him again and again while he was in the penetentary to become a Christian, all of which he did profess. Even that was by the skin of his teeth for he had lost a life that could have been used for the betterment of mankind. But instead his life was thrown away for a few dollars. I asked him how he came to to his downfall; he said he came to his downfall; he said he came to it by drinking and gambling. I think I persuaded him that although he had been a miserable wretch, Jesus loved him because He died to save him. This young man had been tried in the Criminal Court at Little River County and the jury that sat on his case, the lawyer that represented him and even he himself acknowledged his guilt. This case so burdened my heart until I felt compelled to write a message to young men; because you, young men, are the hope of the race. The old fathers and mothers who prayed for this day of freedom have passed into the great beyond; but they never thought that in their fasting, praying and shedding of tears, they were doing this for those who would not appreciate their effort in bringing about this freedom. I saw this young man of whom I am writing, I talked with him, I prayed for him, I baptized him in the faith in which he professed to have believed, and I had an opportunity to study him, and as I did so I thought of the thousand and thousands of young men who are gambling and drinking and committing other diabolical acts, not considering the shortness of time and the precious life they are living, and I beseach the young men who are pursuing this course to turn now and think, for in order to succeed in this president. The meeting was called to order in proper form. Each member answered to roll call and responded with quotations from the Bible. Afterwards all were engaged in needle-work. At the close a two course meeting was met with Mrs. Hightower journed to meet with Ms. Hightower Hobbs. FAYETTEVILLE Sunday was a cold, windy day but the different churches were well attended. The pastor of St. John, Mulberry, Tenn., and his members will spend Sunday, April 1. The pastor, Rev. W. T. Denny, will preach for Rev. J. M. Brown, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, Fayetteville. The news reached our town Monday, Mr. T. C. Ransom, the manager of the quartet who sang for the March Fayetteville March Night March with a sad accident being run over by an auto and was killed. We regret this very much. Misses Vinnie B. and Sallie Commons made a fiving trip to Nashville last week. FIRESIDE SCHOOL A memorial service for Sister Moore was held at Central Baptist Church on Fourth avenue on Sunday night. March 18. Sister Moore was a member of this church for many years. Dr. J. R. Cunn, pastor of the church presided. Mrs. L. A. McMurry, president of the City Missionary Union, who was a member of Central Church with Sister Moore, spoke on "Miss Moore as a Missionary." She told of Sister Moore's influence on her life and how, through her, she was led to consecrate herself to the missionary cause. Mrs. John Gaut spoke on "Miss Moore as a Friend." Very sweetly she told how Sister Moore had enriched her life and how she had been a source of blessing to the white people as well as to the colored people. With Sister Moore she had visited the colored people of her neighborhood and secured thirty subscriptions to HOPE. Then for two years she had met with the readers once she had met and reviewed the Bible lessons in HOPE and answered their questions. She said that no Christian work in which she had ever engaged had yielded such rich returns of satisfaction and enjoyment. Miss Grace M. Eaton spoke on "Sister Moore's Legacy." She told of the plans of the Fireside School and how they grew in the heart and mind of the founder out of her experiences among the people. Now this work has been left to us and an appeal was made that means be provided to sustain the cause so dear to Sister Moore and to which she gave her life. A quartette of Flask singers sang four jubilee melodies which were received with much pleasure by all. Dr. Gunn spoke of the impression the consecrated life of Sister Moore made on him and the inspiration it gave to a deeper spirit of sacrifice and service. There was a large and appreciative audience and an offering for the Memorial Fund was taken.

By industry and economy, he will rise step by step both into civic and commercial life and will be a great benefactor to mankind. And that young men is the only life worth living. When I asked John Hawkins, the man of whom I am writing, the victim of the electric chair, if he attended Sunday school, his answer was NO. Then when I asked if he attended church his answer was NO. Thus the two most important factors that cause men to think aright were neglected by this man, the Sunday school and the church, and his life was blank and void of good association. In this connection I am forced to ask the young men to desist from living a blank life for by living such a life you will eventually be led into the snakes and pitfalls of Satan. The sun of enlightenment is too high for a man to live in a strata of the lowest humanity. Young man you can easily think yourself into a thing but your biggest trouble will be to think out of it. We have now in this connection many young men who are going along in the world not thinking of the vastness of eternity. They fill their lives with complaining. They have an objection to every state law, the commercial interests and even the church and Sunday school. They fill the corners of the streets with smoke and words of dissatisfaction but they must remember they have the opportunity of making and shaping the world as they think it should be shaped so far as right is concerned. God never intended for the world to be turned over to complainers; but men who think sensibly and strong will eventually succeed in shaping the policy and life of mankind. I hear many of the young men complaining now because the prohibition law has prevailed and more than six hundred thousand have been driven out of business. Now it comes to the young man to think himself into business without breaking the law, because if he breaks the law, he becomes a criminal and a vagabond. But frequently the Negro excuses his conduct on the grounds that the white man does as he does. But the young colored man must remember that the white man's father owned this country; it has been handed down to their race although many of them are living off money made by the sweat from the brow of our parents to say nothing of what they are making today of their children. The People's Defender. Mrs. Mary E. Jones, formerly of Owensboro, Ky., accompanied by Miss Ozel Skinner, arrived in the city from Indianola, Miss., Friday, March 9th, at 3:11 a. m. Mrs. Jones plans to spend several weeks with her daughter, Miss Minnie B. Davis, bookkeeper of Fireside Schools, after which she will return to the delta to resume her Evangelistic tour.

Without a doubt a crowded house will greet the Mills-Frisby Players when they give their first performance next Tuesday at the matinee performance. This much-heralded aggregation of performers are exceedingly popular and come here after a long run at Hamerstein's Theatre of New York City. Each member of the combination is a distinct star and with a couple of well-reputed Forensic Mills-Frisby Players, he has Mills-Frisby without a doubt one of the best actresses of the race and always creates a favorable impression when ever she appears. She has spent much time and energy in helping to unify and create a higher regard for colored acts on the American stage Miss Fannie Wise is regarded as one of America's leading Ngong songbirds. The rance' and volume of her voice have elicited rounds of applause and commendation. She has never failed to please. Her acting is superb, and in dramatic roles she is especially good in the portrayals of the various characters that have fallen to her lot to impersonate. Miss Lottie Grady, another member of the company is without a doubt one of the winsome performers that it has been our pleasure to see. She is a born actress, and that a personality that is to please and does so in the title. Miss Grady is perhaps the best dressed colored actress and is referred to as the "Fashion Plate of the Colored Stage." Then there is that popular star, Luke Scott, "a hero of many battles," who is one of the best there is to be round. His stage bearing cannot be beat, and as an actor he is hard to equal. He represents the best type of an educated performer and that puts brains in his body. In his role with Mr. Mills, a wonderfully good show is in the Mills-Frisby Players. --- We are glad that the colored citizens will again be able to see a good show. We understand that the Mills-Frisby Company will appear here at the Bijon Theatre, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, March 27, 28 and 29. The shocking remembrance of the "Madam Rose's Octorous" disgrace is still with us. $W_0$ are glad that we will not be suffered with another such mess as that affair. We know something of the merits of this show, and feel confident that they will live up to their past reputation. The Mills-Frisby Company is really good compass of performers, and treasured the best in the show business, and those who are fortunate in being able to see the show will be well remaid. Miss Famille Wise, who was a star in the famous Williams and Walker Company, is worth the price of admission alone to see, and the presence of Miss Lottie Grady is a further guarantee that the show will be above the average. She is considered the "fashion plate of the Negro race on the stage." Luke Scott is a rapid dress changer and a big addition and attraction with the show. Mills and Frisby have a good show, so don't fail to see them. Wait Wright. THE ALPINE THEATRE The Alpine still keeps up the standard and continues to please their patrons. The very best pictures are presented each week. Manager Boger has caused this house to be quite popular and a permanent fixture out in North Nashville and the people are going wild over the pictures each day. The Alpine is the place that you will eventually attend. THE STAR THEATRE The Star Theatre continues to draw large crowds and is showing some fine pictures nowadays. The genial manager, Mr. T. Clay Moore, is working hard each day to present to the movie-goers of the city the very best pictures. He knows what the people want and is giving it to them in fine style. "The Perils of a Girl Reporter" is shown every Saturday. We want all the movie-goers to get into the habit of attending the Star. The Smart Set Company in "How Newtown Prepared" headed by Saxem Tutt Whithey and J. Honeer Tutt and Blanche Thompson are playing at the American Theatre, St Louis, this week. The Whitman Sisters and Company are putting in their second week at the Pocker Washington Theatre, St Louis. Miss Lillian Whitfield, vaudeville actress, is residing for the present at 22 Catherine street, Detroit, Mich. Miss Grace Vaughner is still pleasing the patrons of Central Cafe, 135 West 53rd street, New York City, with the popular song bits and is a big favorite with the patrons. Garland Howard, formerly of the team Howard and Mason, is with Frank Montgomery's Company. Perry (Mule) Bradford, the famous composer and performer is at the head of a company of 25 people. Henry Jones, the comedian, is now appearing with Laura Bailey and her company of performers. Brooks and Bowen are in Ottawa, Canada, this week. Jack Carter of New York City is resting in Chicago for the present. A bevy of pretty girls cluster around these stars. A good chorus is its chief asset. Be sure to attend the Bijou and see this show which plays three days, March 27, 28 and 29, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. There will be matinees each day. Madam Anita Patti Brown of Chicago, the famous coloratura soprano, appeared in Savannah, Ga. last Tuesday night at the First Bryan Baptist Church, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. of that city. Mme. E. P. Clough, the famous Worester, Mass, dramatic soprano, will appear in a recital in Boston, March 28, assisted by Mrs. Jesse' Shaw, plano; Clarence C.

The Capital City League convened at Neal Boyd's residence, Sunday evening, 906 Morrison Street. The house was called to order by our president, R. Tabor. All managers were present except Mr. Garrett of the B. H. S. The league has been very fortunate in securing Greenwood Park for the coming season. The secretary was asked by the president to an nounce through the Globe that any good teams desiring to enter the League, is requested to be at our next meeting, March 25th, which will convene at the office of Mr. Charlie Whitsett, N. 12 Spring Head St., or address mail to 906 Morrison Street to the secretary Neal Boyd. Phone M ```markdown ``` The Nationals will again have their old machine, from Hurt to Boyd to Street, to Shafter, Manager Allison has a nice bunch of boys signed for another season. Almost the same team that he finished with last year excepting a few changes. Manager Whitsit of the Maraons, says, he is going to make it hot for the Nationals this year, but Mr. Allison told him not to cry for they would beat him by and by. Mooney, the best third baseman in the League will again play third for the mighty Sox, also Mr. Stratton will again be with the Sox. John Ware the old cunning catcher will be there when the bell taps to go. Manager Garrett is not talking much but we will all have to hustle to heat the old man, for he always turns out a good team. In McCall he has one of the best players the city affords. Blair of the mighty Maroons will certainly be a big help to his team. Manager Whitsit says he is still good for a few more games and when the old man gets in form he is some player himself, he has a nice string of boys to select from. Those who attend Greenwood Park this summer will certainly see some good ball games. It will be run this year by the Capital City League. The president is making all efforts to give to the public the best ball playing they have ever witnessed. The Maroons seem to be the best team on paper that the League has ever but when they strike such teams as the Sox, Nationals, B. H. S they will have a rugged road to travel. Manager Garrett ought to have the best team in Nashville, he has a whole East side to pick from, but every manager will have to deal square with his players to ever do any good. Captain Street says he will certainly win the rag this year with such men as Shatter, Boyd, Charleston, Sublett, Hurt, Mvers, London, Webster, Williams, not speaking of the other he has under the cover. Be careful Mr Sox, and Mr. Maroon, and Mr. B. H. because those Nationals are dangerous. Boyd and Street not only work together on the diamond, but they are together now with manager Allisson, the overseer. Among our many exchanges this week, we are delighted to acknowledge the reception of the Atlanta Independent, a high class journal in every respect, both in mechanical art and literary production. We congratulate the Independent upon its fearless and yet conservative position. Just such journals will be the hope of the Negro race. The wildcat story told by the Chicago Defender relative to the lynching of a Negro woman in Georgia, and subsequent killing six of the mob by her husband who had asked for permission to go for a sheet to wind the body of his wife in seems to have been a fabrication of whole cloth. This infamous story destined to only give an unfair vision of southern life and relation between its race variety of people was properly run to earth and exposed by the fearless and competent editor of the Atlanta Independent. It is in this way that Negro journalism is to be exceedingly helpful to Negro people in this south land, is by correcting fals reports and co-operating with the white journalists in giving a true estimate of conditions in the south. There is no room in Negro journalism for mistlethaw makers. It is to be hoped that those who have charge of Negro newspapers in the north will at least be discrete enough to find out the truth of events before publishing them. In that way they can serve their people far better in the south than they can by exaggerating conditions. Editor Ben Davis is to be congratulated for running to earth that nefarious story. —The People's Defender. NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY MARCH 23, 1917. BIJOU THEATRE 3 Days Only Mar. 27, 28, 29.

We do not know the absolute merits of the contentions of the Odd Fellows in Georgia, but we do know that a fierce conflict in that very great order has been going on in that state for some time with the Honorable Ben Davis as champion of one faction. It would appear that the matter were finally thrown into the courts after the enemies of the State F and Master and State Grand Secretary had been declared ex-communicated. The matter having been sifted through the courts, Secretary Davis seems to have won every contention sought and came out more than victor, practically retaining in his hands the management and disposition of a half million dollars worth of property belonging to the fraternity in Georgia. Lined up with him were such men as the Rev. Dr. E. R. Carter and other noble churchmen. We are not at liberty, however, to say that the church spirit entered into the content, but it is singularly suggestive that those who are contending for the National Baptist Convention unincorporated are lined up with that giant in this struggle. We have always believed Colonel Davis to be honest and honorable. Since we have known him, we have believed him incapable of espousing a wrong cause. His convictions for the right are so clear and exalted, his consciousness of justice is so sublime, his convictions are so far reached and after such deliberation and mediation until the editor of the People's Defender believes him incapable of espousin' a wrong cause. In this conviction, he has been vindicated by the Supreme Court of Georgia, for the Supreme Court has said that the Hon. B. J. Davis is right, and that those who fought against him were wrong. It seems singularly strange that after a man has spent his life and energies, ability and tact in building up a great institution that those who are his inferior from every viewpoint and who could not have by any means brought to pass the progress that exists, calmly wait until such progress is made and then assail in the most ruthless and unwarranted fashion those who have brought it to pass, but somehow God hath arranged it, that he who sowth shall also have a hand in reaping. It seems to be true in this particular case, for to the credit of the Hon. Benjamin Jefferson Davis can be attributed more than to any other one man in Georgia the present high financial and commercial standing of the fraternity of Odd Fellows, and if left to his enemies, he would not only have been deprived of reaping any of the benefits derived from such labors but would have been ignominiously thrown entirely out of the order itself. This reminds us of just what the Baptists, the incorporated Baptists, are trying to do to that venerable old sage, Dr. R. H. Boyd, whose genius and integrity and far sightedness and activity and business ability hath built for the Negro race generally and the Negro Baptists in particular, the greatest commercial enterprise in the race. Huntsdrops of men waited patiently until he had pushed that enterprise to the half million dollar mark, and then they rise up and cry, thief, thief, with no other intention to play the thief themselves. They would take that old saint, that old business genius and cast him entirely out of the enterprise that he hath helped to build, and indeed no doubt some of them would put him entirely out of the Baptist church and confine him in prison if they could satisfy their se fish greedy ambition to live upon what other men have built up. We congratulate Bro. Davis, and predict for him, a most brilliant career, for he is comparatively speaking a very, very young man. He is not only an Odd Fellow of the very highest rank, but he is a Baptist to the manor born, a stalwart friend of President Jones. It was he who delivered the annual address to the National Baptist Convention at Kansas City last September, a masterpiece indeed. It is in his city, and largely through his efforts that the National Baptist Convention unincorporated will meet in September, 1917. Hurrah for the Hon. B. J. Davis. —The People's Defender. SUMMARY LEGISLATIVE ENACTMENTS. It will be well for the Negro to look well toward what the legislative bodies in the different states are doing, for nowhere can public sentiment be better judged than through the different enactments of the different legislative bodies of the different states. The temperament of the southern people, white people we mean, is reflected in their legislative bodies, for the legislative bodies are made up entirely of southern minds and southern sentiment, of southern blood, and the student of affairs can easily judge the trend of things by giving close attention to the bills enacted into law, and the bills introduced to be enacted into law. If we are to judge public sentiment of Arkansas by the legislature just ended, we would consider that conditions are reasonably healthy, that sentiment is fairly good, that there is a temperament in the public mind to lift up all of the people; there is a racial feeling that extends to all the folks. In some particular, it seems that the race feeling is becoming more general. By this we mean to say that the dominant race temperament is becoming enlarged so as to take into it more nearly all of the people. One of the great hindrances heretofore, and indeed, to some extent, at present, is that the Negro hath been left out of the human feeling, he has not been included in the public thought, in the public mind, he has not shared in the public temperament only in an adverse way, but the present legislature seems to have reflected a larger and more wholesome public sentiment. This the editor judges from the enactment and character of bills passed, and enacted into law. While the hydro-headed monster of prejudice showed itself, hoisted itself sufficiently above the horizon to be clearly visible, but it did not appear so vicious, and determined as in former days. One of the most beneficial and universal measures passed was the "Dry Bone," bill. This moral measure certainly will have a beneficial effect upon all the people, the white people and the black people. The black people will not be permitted, as certain classes of them will do to debauch themselves and to demoralize themselves with liquor, and the white people will not be permitted to debauch themselves, and the fiery passions, subsequent to such debauchery; that so frequently ends in in human treatment toward the weaker class; will be avoided. In this way it is doubly helpful to the Negroes. The Negro will not be permitted to debauch himself, and the vicious class of whites will not be made more vicious by its use, and thereby expend that viciousness upon the Negro for after all, the white man left entirely to himself, his brain and temperament undisturbed by foreign This Stylish SUIT FREE We want you to get one of those suits it is to your friends.

Dept. #14 Chicago and vicious elements is a very, very desirable man to live by, a very, very desirable neighbor, a very, very desirable friend, but certain classes of them when once aroused and made more vicious by whisky becomes the bitterest enemy—the Negro has, and does and commits crimes against him that they would not think of committing had they not been inflamed by liquor, so in this enactment we see good for all the people, and especially the Negro people. The compulsory educational bill that was enacted into law also is an exceedingly helpful enactment. The law if we are rightly informed makes it compulsory that each child from to 15 shall attend school three-fourths of each term and in case the guardian or parent is no able to furnish the necessary books, that the public school authorities must furnish them. To our way of thinking, this will be a very, very beneficial law to the Negro, for many of them kept their children out of school because of downright slothfulness and triflingness. A slothfulness that was wicked in its very self. A third bill was the repeal of the election law, the state election law. The 1915 legislature consolidated the state and federal elections, our recent legislature repealed that law. The gist of the argument in favor of such a repeal was that the Negro would be permitted to vote and it would not be so easy to do away with his vote, for doing away with his vote might bring them into conflict with the federal government. In fact, it was easy to see that the intention of that enactment was to continue the robbing of the Negro of his vote. Here is where we see the monster prejudice sticking up his head. It demonstrates that prejudice yet prevails in a large measure when it comes to the civil liberties of the Negro. These and other measures, such as the Woman's Suffrage measure, and the illiteracy measure was adopted, but one of the fartherest reaching measures possibly was a measure that provides for a Constitutional convention, a convention that is to rehaul, rewrite the constitution of the state. There is the possibility of great danger to the Negro in this particular matter, for the fundamental body of our law might be so constructed as to work a very great hardship upon the Negro or any other class of citizens. Let us hope, however, that the Negro, that justice and righteousness will have friends in that body, such friends as will see to it that no unjust discriminatory sections are placed therein. —The People's Defender.
