The Sunday School Congress Meets in Nashville, June 13 to 18, 1917. NASHVILLE GLOBE. $20,140.88 RAISED FOR THE Y. M. C. A. NEGROES OF NASHVILLE ACCEPT CHALLENGE AND PUT OVER ANOTHER CAMPAIGN, CLINCHING THEIR NEW BUILDING FOR THE Y. M. C. A. VOLUME XII. "W evid equal Crea right liber $20,140.88 RAIS FOR T NEGROES OF NASHVILLE ACC OVER ANOTHER CAMPAIGN BUILDING FOR T After a seven days whirlwind campaign for cash and subscriptions, the Negroes of this city reported last Friday night, collections and subscriptions to the amount of $20,140.88, with subscriptions still coming in. Much enthusiasm was injected into the campaign from the very opening day, Friday, March 23rd, until it closed, Friday, March 30th. Patriot, race-loving citizens, whether men, women, boys or girls, participated in the campaign. All records were smashed on the last day when more than $10,000.00 was reported as the result of one day's work. Nashville virtually suspended its business in sofar as Negro business men were concerned, and all hands were busy and all hearts bent on the one big task. When the Campaign Committee met at :306 in the New Y. M. C. A. building and the meeting called to order, supper was served immediately in the parlors, because the dining room had been arranged for gymnastics exercises. "Let us hear the report!" was the clarion call from Chairman J. C. Napier after devotion had been pronounced. Report! report! report! "Report!" was sung to the tune of "Bless the tie that Binds." by every member of Divisions A and B. B迪尔顿 and merriment were camped. The river here was two divisions was keen, as Division B under Gen Preston Taylor, Lieut Gen. Jasper T. Phillips, assisted by Mr. Enoch Brown and Prof. T. B Hardeman had led each night, not withstanding Division A under Mr. W. D. Hawkins with Lt. Gen. D Wesley Crutcher, assisted by Dr. J L. Leach and Mr. T. Clay Moore, had given them a run for their lives. The five teams under the captaincy of REV. T. J. KING, D. D., Richmond, Va., Secretary of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), who sent out the call for the Executive Committee to meet in Nashville in June and who will attend. the following were evenly divided between the two divisions. In order to make the test more spirited, it was decided that on the last night instead of reporting by divisions, the reports of the various teams would alternate. Team No. 1 from Division A made the first report, and cheers went up when they announced their total. This was followed by team No. 6 from Division B. There was more cheer. This was kept up until the ten teams had reported and until the Campaign Committee made their final announcement with up to five results, that the campaign had been put over with the greatest show that had ever been given to any benevolent movement or charitable effort in the city. The individual pennant for last night was taken off by team No. 1 of Division A, the chairman awarding them the pennant, ruling that they had reported the largest individual amount for the night, which was $27000.0. The honor for raising the largest amount of money throughout the campaign went to Division B. The gladiators of the campaign shook hands one with the other, then the campaign song, "We Have Raised It All," that had been especially written by Jasper Phillips, sung to the tune of Surrender All, rent the air with its Surrender All, had this died away when Prof. Harding began to sing the African song with its ninety-nine verses all the same under the caption of "Go on, Go on. Go on." The grand total was reported by Divisions and teams. Immediately congratulations were showered upon the campaign committee and the Committee of Management of the Advisory Board. The heroic work on the part of the women who were recruited into the campaign on the last day, and the splen NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these, are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." RAISED THE Y. M. C. A. ACCEPT CHALLENGE AND PUT AIGN, CLINCHING THEIR NEW R THE Y. M. C. A. did work of the school boys who came in on the last lap, with the marvelous report and great financial assistance given to the campaign on the last day by the students of Meharry Medical College, Fisk University and the A and I State Normal, were pronounced as one of the greatest that has ever been known of. When the campaign was announced by the Rev Dr. Stevens at the end of the campaign it was the consensus of opinion that the battle had been fought and the victory won. A SPLENDID RESULT, "WE HAVE RAISED IT ALL OVER TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS RAISED BY ARDENT CHRISTIAN WORKERS. As far as the colored Y. M. C. A. campaign for $20,000 is concerned, they have raised it all." As a result of this book Friday each publication to the amount of $20,507.5 was reported at the meeting Friday night held in the parlor of the Duncan Hotel, now the home of the Colored Y. M. C. A. This splendid result came only after an effort in which the combined strength of the workers was thoroughly utilized, and then some. The regular working force was supplemented by workers from the various schools and colleges and men and women who had previously worked in the campaign of 1914. Probably the efforts of these additional workers are largely responsible for the splendid victory which spelled triumph in the face of defeat. The man who had got to do the work in the allotted time, anything short of this on the part of the colored workers meant, according to their way of thinging, do to the work for which they had worked for many years. The opening scenes of the evening were of a nature that predicted the triumphal march of the workers as they came filing in from all parts of the city. First came the boys of the Pearl High School divisions, then the workers of the Wowen's Auxiliary, followed closely by the representatives who covered the larger educational institutions of the city and then the regular workers. To this was added the maneuvers of Division B, headed by Millam's baseball band, who were celebrating in advance their victory over Division A in raising the largest number of men in the league in the campaign. Later on, however, this splendid spirit was dampened when the reports of the evening showed that a team of Division A had wrested the pennant from a team of Division B, by turning in for the day the largest amount of subscriptions. This honor went to team number five, Division A, Wm D. Laws, Captain. His actual team report amounted to $536.75, but the report of his supplemental workers from the several universities swelled his grand total to $8,850.60. Following the report of the teams Chairman Napier announced that they had in hand certified and supplemental subscriptions that guaranteed the $20,000. This was the signal for an outburst of amplitude such in the walls of this well known hostelry, which has stood for years a pride to the common wealth of the city. Elderly men, young men, boys and the women and girls present allie rejoiced in the consummation of the task which means so much for the young colored manhood of the com- They revelled and rejoiced in their victory until Secretary Watson announced that it was all over, but the shouting. The grand total is expected to even surpass the rough figures given our Friday night. The reports of the teams Friday night were as follows: DIVISION A. Team Captains Amount 1. J. A. Crockett $242.75 2. Jerry M. Baker No report. 3. J. P. Porter $221.50 4. J. C. McCauley $105.00 5. Wm. D. Laws $536.75 Supplemental report $3,313.85 Total $4,419.85 DIVISION B.

THE SATURDAY NIGHT MEETING NEGROES WILL CONTINUE WORK. Not Satisfied With Splendid Campaign Efforts Vote to Have General Cleaning Up of Colored Y. M. C. A. Building Soon. The Negro Y. M. C. A. workers voted Saturday night to continue their collections and solicitations until the campaign being conducted by the Central Association closes. This was agreed upon after a discussion of the matter by the workers, the sentiment being that, although they had succeeded in bringing the $90,000 the amount they set out to secure, a larger sum should be subscribed to take care of the shrinkage which must necessarily follow. The workers met at the Negro Y. M. C. A. building to hear the final returns and to discuss the future situation, and it was not long before the drift of opinion showed that they were unwilling to stop work as long as the white people are forced to remain in the field. It was declared that the struggle which they are making is partly on behalf of the Negro Y. M. C. A. and that this seemed to have inspired the Colored Association workers to continue their efforts. It was decided that as much cash as could be collected should be secured during the future canvass and the men are to meet Tuesday and Friday nights and make their reports of their cash and subscriptions. TO CLEAN UP DUNCAN HOTEL The workers also voted to have a general cleaning up of the Duncan hotel, the new home of the colored Y. M. C. A., in the near future. The men will gather at the building, about one hundred strong, and give from the top to bottom the cleaning for top to bottom. The furniture will be polished, and everything will be put in as good condition as possible. While the building is to be remodeled and equipped for Y. M. C. A. purposes, it is understood that as soon as possible the Negro men and boys are anxious to make such use of the house as they can until final work of remodeling is begun. Besides, the furniture and decorations are sorely in need of attention, as the hotel has stood unoccupied for many months. The date for the general housecleaning will be decided upon at the meeting of the workers next Tuesday night. At the meeting Saturday night $420.00 in cash and subscriptions was reported by the two divisions. The following letter was sent to a list of persons asking that they pray for the success of the Association campaign just before it started March 22nd; more information. As we face the great responsibility now upon us, as Nashville undertakes the duties of this another campaign for better manhood, we feel the necessity of turning to a "Power not our own." Friday morning 100 men will start out to secure $20,000.00 in cash and subscriptions, the balance of our prorata of the $100,000 necessary to equip an association plant for meeting the needs of Negro men and boys of Nashville. We feel that we hold a rightful claim on success. But it is easy to fall with the best tried plans where prayer and the spirit back of it is lacking. This is a call to prayer. Pray that the best movement for $165,500.00 in Nashville be a success March 22 30,1917. Pray especially that the 40.00% Negroes of our city shall be willing to pay the price for success in this matter where they have an absolute right to a glorious victory, $20,000.00 in cash and bonafide subscriptions in eight days is the objective. Pray for this and all that goes with it. This is a call to prayer. Pray as though failure of this effort was certain in the absence of your prayer. Yours sincerely. WM. N. SANDERS, Executive Secretary. The Association is grateful to the following persons who responded to the call: LOCAL: Dr. F. A. McKenzie, Miss Ada F. Morgan, Dr. A. M. Townsend, F. E.

Dr. McBroom is survived by a wife and daughter. Mrs. McBroom is an invalid. The McBroom family is one of the best known in the city. Mrs. Flor. Owen Cowan, the mother, having reared a large family of boys and girls at the home on Jefferson street, the boyhood of Dr. McBroom was passed in Nashville, where his literary as well as medical education was procured. For several years Dr. McBroom practiced in North Alabama but a short while ago moved to Memphis, where his father his sudden demise he had a flourishing practice. The deceased was a member of the First Baptist Church on 8th avenue. North. The funeral services were held from the home, the Rev. W. S. Ellington officiating, W. H. McGavock and Company were undetakers in charge. Eight courts of the Order of Eastern Star with three lodges of the Division of Masonic filled the auditorium of the Lea Avenue Christian Church last Sunday afternoon to participate in the Palm Sunday services and the rally held under the order of the Eastern Star. The inclement weather which prevailed in the nature of a steady downpour of rain, was not enough to dampen the ardor of the real workers among the women of the organization. The services began promptly. Lea Avenue choir furnished music for the occasion. After the invocation and the singing of "Old Hundred," the regular routine exercises were indulged in. The object and purpose in the main on Sunday were for stimulating interest in the [Image of a man in a suit with a tie]. M. B. REV. EDW. P. JONES. D. D.

The Grand Patron, Mr. J. H. Adams, was on hand to lend assistance and encouragement to the occasion. The church was decorated with palms, and the men in their uniform with a hord of well-gowned women, added buch to the occasion. The Courts took their collection preceding the sermon which was preached by Rev. Preston Taylor, and which closed the services for the day. The following were the officers of the day: Mr. Prior Williams, Patron; Mrs. Mosella Blythe, W. M.; Mrs. Julia Floyd, A. M.; Mrs. Annie Brown, Conductress; Mrs. Amanda Bailey, A.

By Mary Darrellshaw The following article, remarkable in form and spirit is reprinted from The Wesleyan Christian Advocate of Atlanta. Go one of the organs of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. The papers have been full of late of the tragedy of the German expulsion or deportation of the Belgian TENNESSEANS MAKE GOOD SOLDIERS. The war with Germany, in which the United States is said to be certain to take active part, has brought out many of the military experts, and at the same time, has developed a search for experienced military men. There was visiting in Nashville in June 1915, a Mr. Wm. W. Robinson, who was the first Sergent of Company B, 24th U. S. Infantry. While here he was the guest of Rev. Preston Taylor. Mr. Robinson left Nashville to join his regiment then located in the Phillipine Islands. It develops now that Mr. Robinson is back in the states, and is located at Columbus, New Mexico. In a recent communication Mr. Robinson stated that the record thus far shows that the Tennessee now with the regiment army, made the soldier a member of the Union. He is one among a number who is eligible to the promotion of Captain in case Nero regiments are called out. "I hope we shall not have to go to war with Germany, but I see no way to avert it. In the event of war, I would be Captain, as I have successfully passed the examination for Capita n of the officers' reserved corps," said Mr. Robbins in writing to a friend this past week. He stated further that the hardships and loneliness in Mexico are almost unbearable. He said their regiment left Mexico Feb. 5th and was a part of the primitive expedition to go out of old Mexico. In his communication he paid a very high compliment to Co. Roberts, who offered him if he was called out, officers of no company that he would rather be connected with than Company G at Nashville. [Portrait of a man in a suit and tie]. his Executive Committee to meet in Nashville in June and who fill preside over the sessions. laborers. Our hearts have been stirred, our indignation aroused as we read of fathers, sons, husbands and brothers torn from their children, their wives and sweethearts, from the old loved surroundings, and borne forcibly to labor in regions strange and new, under conditions galling and humiliating. But there is another deportation, another expulsion going on under the more serious that comes to us more nearly—some of the causes for which should make us as citizens of a great, free nation hang our heads in shame, should send us as professors Christians, to our knees, crying aloud for forgiveness for our cruel neglect. Thousands Take Flight. I speak of the great exodus of the Negroes from our Southland. There is much being said about it in the press these days. O, yes, we are beginning to talk and question now, for we are beginning to fear for our pocket books. That which a regard for common justice, fair play, human rights could not accomplish, a fear for our bank accounts is doing and we are asking: Why is the Negro dissatisfied? What can we do to keep him in the South. We can't afford to let him go; he means too much to finance financially. He works little; he is pleased to help me for we can house him in any kind of chuck and make him pay as well for that; we do not have to be careful of his living conditions; he is good-natured, long-suffering and if he should happen to give us trouble we can cope with that and the law will uphold us in anything we do. Am I exaggerating? If we do not thus reason audibly we, as a white race and employers of labor, assume or allow assumed. But the Negro is going in scores in hundreds and in thousands. In some sections of South Georgia there are stretches of country almost destitute of Negro population. Country churches which once had congregations of two and three hundred have been built and talking to an old man who, with his wife, sons and daughters was leaving One Negro conference of the colored Methodist Episcopal church that had a membership in 1815 of 11,000 has now barely 5,000. At a recent see --- PRES. JONES CALLS BAPT. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WILL MEET IN NASHVILLE JUNE 13-18 TO MAKE PROGRAM FOR NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTIO..--WILL BE WITH THE S. S. CONGRESS FORCES "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these, are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." sion of the conference men who had been pastors of these people stood in the floor of the conference and with fears in their eyes and sobs in their throats pleaded to be allowed to go with their r congregations. "Not that we want to go for our own sake," they said, "but for the sake of our people. We know it means suffering and hard living, but we will work with our hands for our support, that we may minister to our people, may keep them together that they may not drift and be swallowed up in the great cities of the north with no spiritual or moral guidance to keep them from the downward path." They are going at night, these refugees; the trains are full of them, and they are going with a mighty fear upon them. A friend in a mine named him to go into a great strange world, their poor belongings in clumsy, homely looking bundles in the seats beside them. The stock was left, they could not sell it, they said, and much of their household stuff, the poor collection of years of labor—but theirs. Why They Go. "But why do you go?" my friend asked. The old man, with trembling fingers drew out from his pocket a crumpled paper and spread it out before them. At the top of the sheet was crudely drawn a skull and crossbones, below was written: "You are hereby warned that you and your entire family must be gone from this community within forty-eight hours. Your attention is called to symbol at top of notice." In the community near which the man lived a woman had been burned at the stake a few months before Her crime was due to the natural NH, and mother had dared to protest her child from blows administered by a white man. And so the old man fearing for his life, was fleeing to the dead of night. In another town in Georgia four innocent Negroes were foully murdered in the usual way—by an insane mob. The father of the family was lodged in jail for assault on an officer who came to arrest him. The mob therefore seized the family—the mother, two daughters, one of whom was soon to become a mother, and a ten year old boy. I cannot go into the revolting circumstances of it all. Suffice it to say that little white boys saw it and hence seeds of brutality, hatred and revenge were planted in their young hearts. Many Negroes are leaving that section. A Negro woman in Georgia resisted the offensive attentions of a white ruffan, with the result that her house, with all her possessions was burned, and note was served on her to leave the community at once or she could provide a sense of the rope's end. It is not simply the poor, irresponsible, shiftless Negro that undergoes such treatment at the hands of a senseless mob, for example, the recent occurrence in South Carolina, when a Negro worth anywhere from $20,000 to $50,000, a jaw abiding citizen, was cruelly put to death and his family ordered to leave. His son owned a drug store, where he was doing a good business, all of which had to be sacrificed. Of course, these outrages are perpetrated by the coarse, brutal mob element. But what are the civil authorities doing about it? With the exception possibly of the case cited from South Carolina where Governor Manning is demanding an investigation, we know of nothing being done to restrain the mob spirit which seems to be rampant. And what is the church doing about it? Do we know anywhere of any church taking an out and out stand against such? We seem to be bound hand and foot. What is it we are afraid of? To bring it closer home: What is our great Methodist Episcopal Church, South, doing about it? Where is her influence? Where is her voice? Who has gagged her? Is she a slave prejudice? Is she a coward? Or she asleep? We believe it is the last, but it is time for her to awake up or a great opportunity will have passed and God will find another instrument through which to voice the wrongs of an oppressed people. Not only does she seem to be taking no measure to change existing conditions, not only is her pulpit silent with regard to these atrocious wrongs, but she, this great Methodist Episcopal Church, NSouth, wealthy, strong, influential, is actually falling to meet the responsibility of a task already assumed. Paine College is the one avenue through which as a church, she has even pretended to minister to the Negro race, by training its leaders, its preachers, its teachers, its parents of the generations to come. O. Church of the Christ whominis NUMBER 23 ALLS BAPT. VE COMMITTEE JUNE 13-18 TO MAKE PRO- TIST CONVENTIO.--WILL CONGRESS FORCES With the call of the Executive Committee of the National Baptist Convention, unincorporated, to meet in Nashville Thursday, June 14th, there comes an assurance of even a greater attendance to this city augmenting the Sunday School Congress forces. Information concerning this call was received in Nashville last week when the official announcement signed by Rev. E. P. Jones, D. D., President of the National Baptist Convention, unincorporated, who is located at Vicksburg, Miss., and Rev. T. J. King, D. D., Secretary of the convention, who is located at Richmond, Va. In the call the president and secretary of the convention urged a large attendance and set forth that the purpose of this Executive Committee meeting is to take into consideration important matters as affecting their contention, and to encourage that this is to be held this year during the month of September in Atlanta, Ga. It is estimated by Baptist leaders in Nashville that the meeting of this Executive Committee will bring approximately one hundred fifty Baptist officials to the city, and since they are to meet at the same time of the Sunday School) Congress, it is said that it means much to the city, because they are representatives and leaders in their respective cities. It is not known at what church the executive session will be held, this presumably having been left entirely with the local ministers. Arrangements to this effect are expected to be made at the Baptist Ministers Conference Monday, when they will announce the personnel of the local Reception Committee, the Committee on Homes and General Arrangements.

We must acknowledge that while a large percentage of the voters of the 18th ward are colored, yet by some misstep this large Republican ward can be tured into a Democratic ward, Don’t let us forget ourselves and play the “dog with the bone,” lose all trying to ‘gain something that perhaps we can not get at this time. We know It ts sald that one or two men carry oF swing the ward as they desire, that the sporting element 1s satisfied with things Just as they are, With this ‘condition confronting the agitators for ‘a colored man in Council trom the ee ward, let them make the party {Issue paramount to the race, rather ‘than lose all. ‘The Brotherhood is for [a nogro in theCouncll from this ward first and at all times but it Is for party nity an elgrgparneny above all ‘other consideratf8ns, Let all the Teaders get together and thrash out wise plan to satisfy all conditfons in this largely Negro ward, ‘(Do Not Be Ashamed ofthe Songs Sung by Your Forepavents | _______ IMMORTALIZE THEIR MEMORY AND THEIR es ee 1 a ~~?

In attempting to make that a permanent rule of order, @iabolical as it is, a revolt hath arisen, for a number of the mints. fers who have been afliating with the irregulars have ojenly declared thelr vengeance upon such regulation, and have declared that they will not submit to such bossy orders, and in- deed have invited the Progressives to thelr churches and pulpits, and have signified their willingness to enter the pulpits of any of the Progressives who may invite them. Only on the 28th of March was the Rey. Dr, J. S. Steele, president of the District Sunday Schoo! Convertion, invited, and accepted the invitation to preach at the Union Valley Bap- tist Church, pastored by the Rev. Dr. W. M. Rogers. Dr. Rogers hath been sailing under the Caver flag, but he defies Caverism, and asserts his Bap- tist manhood as well as his pastoral authority, and defles any person th say whom he shall invite into his pulpit, or into whose pulpit he shall go. If Caverism {s sincere and car ries out its threats that any of thelr ministers who enter into the pulpit: of the Progressives, or allow any oi them to enter into theirs, that they will withdraw the hand of fellowshi from them, then they are going t: have a big job on their hands, foi the Rev.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION Mashille, Tenn., April 6, '17 "WAR IS HELL." "War is hell," so said an eminent gentleman a half century ago. That he was wholly right in his assertion has been amply verified time and again. But the Negro is now ready to face hell and all of its attendant horrors whenever President Wilson gives the word. Germany, it seems, has disregarded all rules of international warfare and like a mad dog is running amuck snapping, snarling and biting at every thing, forcing the United States to the last alternative. It seems we have gotten to the bridge there is nothing left to do but to cross it. The Negro is not asking the whys or the wherefores, but like the noble six hundred. "There's not to reason why, there's not to make reply, there's not to do and die." Ali we know is that our country needs us, and we are willing and eager to do its bidding. War is hell, but the Negro loyally loving his country and the stars and stripes is ready "to do and die" if need be. We are willing to face war cruelties and barbarities to the end that "old glory" may never be dis honored or trailed in the dust. We are Americans first, last, and always. We are not looking back into the dead part, we have no feeling in this matter save patriotism. As American citizens, we owe it to ourselves our children and our children's children to uphold the honor and glory of our country's integrity and American institutions. We are not graver cowards, and have never shown our selves to be when "Columbia the gen of the Ocean" is imperilled. War is hell, so say we all, but hell hath no furies that the Negro will not dare to save the honor and slay of his country's flag. We have never been found wanting, and never will be. We invite the acid test. We are ready to shoulder arms, and to "forward march," when the word is given. "War is hell," but those who know the Negro soldier are aware that he is not a duty shirker, nor a hardship sidestepper, rather he is truly loyal to the marrow bone. "War is hell," even so, but the black man will be found heroically upon the firing line doing his utmost to uphold the rights of the American nation and the perpetuity of the constitution. And, to the regnant race we would say, when this bell is over, give us a man's chance to live and have our being, unharrassed by race prejudice and petty jealousies. But, "war is hell." And, yet after the cruel war is done we all in truity join in singing the "Land of the free and the home of the brave." GO-TQ-SUNDAY-SCHOOL DAY The Globe desires that every parent will on next Sunday get an early breakfast and take their children to Sunday school. Let there be a great outpouring of the faithful and the unfathiiful also. Doubleless some of you remember away back yonder when you had but one shirt, your dear mother would launder it on Saturday night in order that you might not have an excuse for being absent from Sunday school the following day. You remember how you were put to bed clothed in one of her old dresses that you would not catch cold while you were minus than solitary shirt. The Christian spirit was rampant then in nearly every household. The older people would attend sunrise prayer meeting at the peep of day both winter and summer. After this prayer service, they would come home and have prayers again. Just before serving breakfast, mother would read a chapter from the Bible, and then father would lead in prayer, after which the whole family would join in singing one of those old-fashioned hymns of Zion. After the morning's repast, the whole kit would go $ \mathbf{g}_{0} $ to Sunday school. Verily those were good old days when it seemed as if everybody loved everybody. We would rejoice deep down in our soul if those days were here again. Even now, sometimes in the wee small hours of the night, we often muse, "Backward, turn backward. Just for tonight." But why dwell in the past? Let us live now as they did in the past, live in the church and Sunday school. Let our religion show forth in our lives as did our forebears. Often have we heard, our sainted mother sing—"Jesus loves me, this I know, Because the Bible tells me so." And she learned that Jesus loved her by attending Sunday school in the dark days of slavery and oppression. If you will but go to Sunday school and church you earnestly say "In the lonely night of sorrow, hide thou me" and have the assurance that Jesus will do it for you for the reason that you put your whole trust in him. Go to Sunday school after tomorrow; it will do you good and remind you vividly of your childhood days. Again, we say, don't forget, as it is highly important. THE FORGOTTEN GARDEN Civic and school interest in gardening wins considerable applause in the newspapers before the frost leaves the ground and for a while thereafter, then comes lameness of the back and joints, and—the garden is forgotten. Only those whose enthusiasm is of deeper root remain faithful through the hot and wearisome days of late spring and summer. No one ever need fear the spasmodic tiller of vacant lots. His rivalry may bulge a little in the prints, but the results of his labors are heartbreaking to those who cry for fresh vegetables. By the latter part of June the spasmodic gardener has lost all that fine glow of inspiration which seemed destined for a time to set a little corner of the world afire. Good gardening is a matter of sound and unremitting labor in a private way, and it is not attained by a sort of social spasm, which hungers for the bouquets of publicity, while its votaries purchase their onions, radishes and lettuce at the old stand. The civic and school gardens are nearly always fizzles because they appeal to the play spirit rather than to the spirit of devotion and industry. In all these enterprises fathers and mothers should lead, acting an intelligent and untriring part themselves, and tutoring their sons and daughters in the gentle art of the hoe and rake, not for the purpose of winning cheap applause, but because the harvest that follows honest and quiet toll has its material rewards not to speak of the joy and health which come with their attainment. Now that the signs of the times point unerringly to hostilities between this country and Germany, we unhesitatingly go on record for Negro officers for Negro troops. We call upon every able-bodied man who is eligible for service to enlist and do what he can for the salvation of the nation, but we insist that they be officered by men of their own race from corporal to colonel. In every field of endeavor the black man has made good when given the chance and we are doubly sure he will make more than good if placed in command of soldiers of his own race. We think it but fair and just that the Negro be given this chance to show the metal of which he is made. Negroes are brave and have been tried and stood the fiery test In years agone and will do it again if given the opportunity. Negroes have always borne the burden in the heart of the day, viz., at Bunker Hill, at San Juan, at Carrizal and other places too numerous to mention. Yes, give us Negro officers for Negro troopers, and then you'll see some sure enough battles. Let us have them, and the whole world will applaud the wisdom of the powers that be. Negro officers have made their mark in France, Brazil and other countries, then why can't they be had in Uncle Sam's domain? Negroes are Americans from head to foot, and love America for America's sake. Our doctors, nurses and our men and women in all walks of life are ready to do service for the nation under officers of their own color. Our quondam friend, Henry Cameron, joined "Co. G." the other night. Dr. Caruthers says this act of the genial professor is responsible for the declaration of war by congress, as every one knows who knows anything at all, that Henry is a whole regiment within himself being equal to forty-nine machine guns. It is really refreshing to wake up mornings and find that Brother Gardner has assured the white folks exactly what the Negroes of Nasville are going to do. Brother Gardner has exclusive ownership of his mouth. Already it is becoming apparent something more than a declaration NASHVILLE GLOBE.

As fades the gloom from weary hearts; A world of music haunts the rills. While leaf and flower attend the arts. Of ancient beauty unsurpassed. Lo! everywhere the hand of God. A dauntless spirit of hope has cast To stir from brain of man to sod. Sing! little streams, as ne'er you song. And flaunt, ye blossoms gaily clad! No bloom today should drooping hang, Forgotten are all memories sad. The grave has lost its victory And death its immemorial sting. Lift up, O man, your eyes and see The Christ, and at his rising sing! Gone are the doubts and gone the fears, Supernal brightness fills all space; Hushed are the sighs and dried the tears, Angelic rapture marks each face. Jesus who knew the bitter cross And all the darkness of the tomb Has crowned with life what seemed but loss, Has filled with light our path of gloom. Hall! Hall his name, the Prince divine; On land and sea the story spread Of his returning, holy sign. The love is lord o'er all the dead, That out of darkness comes the day. That out of sorrow gladness springs. Chant, songsters! Lillies, be ye gay! Love canopies with heavenly wings —Hattie L. Bramlette. SAVINGS ACCOUNT HABIT EL DALE HOTEL HOTEL DALE THE HOTEL CAPE MAY.

FLORAL OFFERINGS MANY AND BEAUTIFUL. RESOLUTIONS FROM VARIOUS INSTITUTIONS. The funeral of the late Prof. John H. Burrus was held at Howard Congregational Church Thursday and was attended by a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends. Dr. C. Morrow of Fisk University assists by Dr. Geo. W. Hubbard of Meharry Medical College; Rev. T. C. McAdams of Shelbyville. The offersings were many and beautiful. Many letters and telegrams from friends and institutions all over the country were received by the relatives as the deceased was held in high esteem by all who had the good fortune to know him. The interment was at Greenwood cemetery. McGavock and Co. were the Undertakers in charge. Here are some of the letters and resolutions received: BESOLUTIONS OF THE ALJUMN ASSOCIATION FISK UNIVERSITY The humble band of Christian workers who form the Alumni Association of Fisk University, are and will be filled with sadness to learn that Prof. John Houston Burrus, has finished his earthly labors. At 12:30 a.m., March 27, 1917, the soul separated from the body and took its flight to the God who gave it. He was a member of the first class to graduate from the college department of the University. He was positive, earnest and through in all of his undertakings. He was a man of liberal ideas, tolerant of the views of others, but of strong convictions, industrious, economic and charitable. The Alumni Association has lost an honored member, the church a devout worshiper, Education a zealous advocate, the city and state an exemplary citizen. The officers and members of the Alumni Association of Fisk University how in humble submission to the Divine will and command his virtues to those who remain. We express sympathy with the family and friends and commend them to Him who alone can comfort. Resolved that a copy of these resolutions be placed on our record and a copy sent to the family. SIGNET: THE ALUMN ASSOCIATION OF FISK UNIVERSITY Fisk University through its Faculty and Students, would express its profound sorrow over the passing of President J. H. Burrus, class 1875, who accounts him among the brightest of those born. She recognizes in his life those traits of character which stamp him a fearless yet safe and sane leader of men. As we drop tears of sorrow here at his departure we can not but feel that they are not to be compared in num- ber with the streams of joy which burst forth amid the Heavenly host as his spirit victoriously returns to the God who gave it. We are transmitting this little expulsion to the family that they may know that we mourn with them, and to our newspapers that men may know the loss of one of the strongest and best of the Negro race.

Burrus, and, Whereas, in his death we, but a small part of those whose lives by him were influenced to higher ideals, have had taken from us the satisfaction and contentment of knowing that one so dear to us still lives this side of the mystic river. Therefore, Be it Resolved, that we the members of the Alumni Association and former students of Alcorn A, and M. College, Alcorn, Miss., in behalf thereof, do hereby express to the relatives of the deceased, our profound grief at the passing of the ex-President Burrus of the aforenamed college and highly resolve that this day shall be hallowed in our own manner, agreed to by each, and set apart to pay due homage to his remains, not only for the philanthropic spirit shed abroad on those who came under his immediate care, but as well as for the chain of blessings that has imperceptibly run through the lives of all those that by fortune have been heirs to the benefits of the work to which his great mind gave origin. Be it further Resolved, that we, as some of those deriving the above named blessings, do resolve that the fruits of his labor ever be cherished in our memory and that we shall ever strive to emulate those virtues which nade him great. We further Resolve, that there shall be a day appointed in the near future for a memorial service conducted by the faculty and assisted by the student body of Alcorn College. Be it also Resolved, that a copy of the thesis must be put to the relatives of the deceased, one to* the Alumni Association at Alcorn College, and one to be sent for publication to the Nashville Globe.

If I should direct my feeble course of procedure in keeping with the appetizing affinity of my olfactory sense, I would linger momentarily or indefinitely in the midst of the sweet fragrance that streams so steadily from the flowery eloquence which has been so conspicuously strewn about us by my most worthy predecessors. In keeping, however, with the purpose for which we have allowed the controlling influence of our upper motor neurons to stimulate the reciprocal action of our antagonistic muscles by which we have made our sense, I dare not linger now. This occasion masks the event of a new era in the history of Mechanical College during the past forty-one years of its existence.

Lest I forget, permit me, if you please, in the name of humanity, and in behalf of the senior medical class, to appeal to the good nature of the citizens of Nashville. We thank you most heartily for the loyal manner in which you have welcomed us into luxuries of your happy homes. We thank you most heartily for happy moments which we have spent your good society, determine our imaginations to traverse the future of our career. We realize that our matriculation as students into Meharris Medical College served only to certify our passports into the doors of your faith and confidence. And as we shall depart from you and go forth into our various fields of labor, have only to hope and trust that during past years of our stay here, our conduct has been reasonably within the bounds of your expectations. More than seven thousand years ago the practice of medicine, though crude as it was, made its debut into the world of a limited civilization. The strenuous effort made by Hip procerates to emancipate the healing art from the disgrace of superstition and ignorance, and the invariance served as the first step in the development of scientific medical facilities. Hence the history of medicine since the earliest time, is the record of a more or less continuous series of experimental solutions, having for their paramount object, a precise and comprehensive knowledge of the nature of diseases and the practical application of these knowledge, can be no loiter manifestation of love than that which is exemplified in the benign effort to assuage theills to which mortality is air. Now can any devotion be more privileged and inspiring than that which soft A. B. Who bears the distinction of being class orator of the largest medical class in the world, climbs the heights of oratory before the great est crowd that ever packed Mehary Auditorium on Class Night, March 30th. He held the great audience spell-bound and is recipient of showers of applause at regular intervals His subject and oration follow: Subject: "The Solution of Scientific Medical Facilities." ens the shock of disease, illuminates the darkness of mental and physical distress, and from the debris of misfortune, vice and height creates a new the image of divine perfection. It must be admitted that the medical art has been too often discredited by professional incompetence. This however, has been a stimulus to the requirements of the present day. The pressure which the medical student is now brought to bear comes from permanent sources—internal and external, or botanically, if you please, indigenous and exageous. When he matriculates in a medical school he is met with such rigid requirements as will force him to a certain high standard of scholarship, or he must leave school branded as a subject far unfit to be birthed into the medical science. If he graduates he must make good as a practitioner, or he is a sad failure and a disgrace to the profession. By these conditions the student of medicine is brought to a ready realization. But that he must master thoroughly the details of the remedial art; become practiced conversant with physiological conditions; manifold phenomena of morbid anatomy; familiarize himself with the varying indications of disease and with physiological idiosyncracies that his diagnosis and treatment in the presence of whatever malady may command respect not only from the laity, but what is of far more consequence to him, from the medical profession. We have said, ere this, that the history of medicine has been a continuous development than an intermittent one; it is therefore quite inappropriate to suppose that in the evolution of so momentous medical as the formulation of a remedial course is so pliable to the extensive catalogue of human abilities there should not have occurred from time to time spasmodic and ill-adjusted theories, crystallizing in their experimental mechanism, substances which are in reality contrary to medical truth. Tis true that in the earliest times, the fruits of ignorance served as a caustic solution of injury to the progress of the medical art. But the hand of skill exercising its power in the laboratory of the world, pouring research from the test tube of progress, the solution of ignorance and has long since precipitated the most corrosive elements of these medical superstitions NOTICE TO COLORED PEOPLE Patronize a colored business.

The advance of the anatomical science among the ancient Greeks was hindered by their feeling respecting the hu man body, which caused them to look with sorrow upon its deliberate mutilation. Aristotle, styled as the greatest thinker of antiquity, the son of a physician, especially educated in the physical sciences, acquainted with the dissection of animals, described the brain as being a cold lump of substance, functioning in the capacity of furnishing a lubricant for the eyes and by far unfit to be the organ of the "sensus communis". But the marked contrast between the knowledge of Aristotle of that time and our knowledge of today with regard to this great nervous mechanism serves to indicate the human body has been made in the solution of scientific medical facilities. Let me briefly recapitulate a few of our physiological acquisitions, due in a large measure to our new instruments and methods of research, and at the same time indicate the limits which form the permanent or temporary boundaries of our knowledge. The microscope which has made a new science of the intimate structure of the organs, has at the same time cleared up many uncertainties with regards to the mechanism of special function. Up to the time of the living generation of observers, nature had kept over all her inner work shops the forbidding inscription, "No admittance." If any pyring observer ventured to spy through his magnifying tubes into the mysteries of her glands, canals and fluids, she covered her work in blinding mists and bewildering shakes, as the deities of old concealed them as her heroes in the moment of danger. But science has lifted the turbid light her lenses and blanched their delicate rainbows. Anatomy studies the organism in space. Physiology also studies it in time. After the study of form and composition follows close to that action, and this leads us back to the first moment of the germ, and forward to the resolution of the living frame into its lifeless element. In this way, that branch of Anatomy which we call histology has become inseparably blended with the study of function. As we have seen nature anticipating the plasterer in the mechanism of her fibre-cartridge; so we see her with the glass-blower in her dealing with the cell. The artisan blows his vitreous bubbles large or small to be used as they are wanted. So does nature shape her hyaline viscera and modifies them to serve the parts where they are found. The artisan whirls his rod and his glass bubbles become flattened discs. So are these lips of our all glazed with microscopic tiles formed of flattened cells to serve the needs of their location. All through the human anatomy cells are found modified or unchanged. They roll in inconceivable multitudes as bi-cincavoid non-nucleated blood discs through our vessels. Cells again preside over those chemical processes which elaborate the living fluids, they change their form to become the agents of voluntary and involuntary motion. Even the soul itself sits upon a throne of nucleated cells and flashes its mandates through the skins of glassy filaments which were once but a simple chain of viscules. And as if to reduce the problem of living force to its simplest expression, we yield a yolk of a transparent egg as it dividing itself in whole or in part, and again dividing and sub-dividing until it has become a mass of cells out of which the harming versity of organs arranges itself worm or man as God will willed from the beginning. Science is descriptive and not explanatory. We see the workman and the tools, but the skill that guides the work and the power that performs it are as invisible as ever. But we have discovered the working bee in this great hive of physiological organization. We have detected the cell in the very act of forming itself from a nucleus of transforming itself into various tissues of selecting the elements of various secretions. But why one cell becomes nerve and another muscle, while one selects bile and another fat, we can no more pretend to tell than why a goose picks grass and grows feathers and a sheep picks the same grass and grows wool. I will only call your attention to the fact that the exceptional phonemes non of the laboratory is the prevailing laws of organism. Nutrition itself is but one great catalytic process. As the blood goes gushing through our arteries, capillaries and veins, each portion of the human anatomy selects its appropriate element and transforms it to its own likeness. Whether the appropriating agent be cell or structure, the structureless solid line the inter-cellular substance of cartilage the very fact of its structure determines the separation of its inner constituents from the circulating fluid so that when we are wounded, bone is replaced by bone, skin by skin and nerve by nerve. President Hubbard, this occasion which has called us together remind us not a little of that other ceremony which unites a man and woman for life. Those bonds of merit have already been pronounced which have wedded the members of the graduating classes to their chosen professions. It remains only then, dear president for you to address to them a few friendly words of cheering council and a few days hence to be stow upon them the parting benediction. With you and the members of the faculty this is an occasion, but with the members of the various graduating classes it is an epoch. Our other hearers are as the spectators at the wedding, who look curiously and the bride and bride-groom, the bridal vell and the orange-flower-garland, the giving and receiving of the ring and wonder what are those mysterious syllables which the clergyman whispers into the ear of the married maiden. But to the newly wedded pair, that meaning in those words, for better, for worse in sickness, in health, until death us do part. To the father, to the mother, who know too well how often the deadly night shade is interwoven in the orange blossom, how empty the pageant, how momentous the occasion. You have not only been our leader in the pursuit of scientific knowledge, sir, but you have been our moral and Christian leader as well. We would have you know that the strenuous effort which you have made to stamp indelibly upon our cardiac factors those principles of Christian religion has not at all been a failure, and as soon as you shall certify our fitness to meet the complications of the outer world, and as we shall make our parting bow to the crisimon and black as it swings from the dome of old Meharyan, we leave you with the assurance, sir, that out of this, the greatest and largest medical class in the world will prove a great temple in the heart of heaven, its waft of heaven, its illuminates the eternal stars, its pillows the everlasting hills, its music the rippling rills, the hum of industry and the happy laughter of childhood, its ornaments, the woods and bountiful fields, and its diafasson on which shall hang all the law, love thy neighbor as thyself. Fellow class mates, the day of your education as pupils under trained instructors is all over; your first harvest is all garnered, henceforth you are to be sowers as well as readers and your field is the world. Soon we are to enter into relations with the public, to extend our skill and knowledge for its benefit and to receive our support in the reward of our labor. How does your knowledge stand today? What have you gained as a permanent possession? What must you expect to forget? What yet remains for you to learn? There are questions which we will do well to consider and there is another question which must force itself on the thoughts of many among us, how am I to obtain patients and to keep their confidence? We have chosen a laborious calling and have made many sacrifices to fit ourselves for its successful pursuit. We wish to be employed that we may be useful and that we may receive the reward of our industry. Since I am chosen by you, then fellow class mates to voice this fastidious demand me take the advantage of the most efficient streams to give you a few hints which may help you to realize your hopes and perfect your expectations. Let me warn you against all ambitions aspirations outside of your profession. Do not dabble in the muddy sewers of politics, nor linger in the enchanted streams of literature, nor dig in the off fields for the hidden waters of alien sciences. The medical science, upheld by more than seven thousand years of steady progress is the most difficult of all sciences and by far the most laborious of all arts, and will take all your powers of body and mind if you are faithful to it. Your acquaintance with some of the accessory branches is greater than it will be one year from now, much greater than it will be ten years from now. The progressive medical research, it may be feared or hoped will have out-run the textbooks in which we have studied, some of these various branches. Again fellow classmates you are now fresh from the lecture room and the laboratory, you can pass an examination in anatomy, physiology, chemistry, materia media, obstetrics, gynecology and ophthalmology which the men in large parts have gotten rid of than the potent suprasolar than any in the pharmaic. These masters of the healing art were once as ready with their answers as you are now, but they have gotten rid of a great deal of the less immediately practical part of their acquisitions and you must undergo the same depleting process. We can afford to forget many things which it was well to learn. Your mental condition is not the same as if you had never known what you now try in vain to recall. There is a perpetual metamyscosis of thought, and the knowledge of today finds a soil in the forgotten facts of yesterday. You do not see anything in the new season of the guano which you placed last year about the roots of your climbing plants. In the poaching frugivore into your poached poes; it has scaled your porch in the bee haunted honey suckle, by the wind, the rain, the storm, the flood its made its way to yonders where the ivy is green, its gone where the woodbine expands its luxuriant foliage. The Medical diploma which you hope to receive a few days hence seems very broad today with all your list of accomplishments; but it begins to shrink from this hour like hien foliage before a beaming sun. But don't worry about it; for all the while there will be making out for you a fairer and amber parchment, signed by old Rather Time himself as president of that great university in which canceled the old profession. Your present plethora of acquirements will soon cure itself. Knowledge that is not wanted dies out like the eyes of fishes of the Mammoth Cave. When you come to handle life and death as your daily business, your memory will of itself good-bye to such intimates as the well known foramina of the sphenoid bone and the familiar oxides of Methyl-Ethyl-Amyl-phenal-ammonium. But be thankful that you have known them, and remember that even the most difficult of your duties is something to have mastered and may furnish pegs to hang facts upon which otherwise would have strewn your floor of memory in loose disorder.

Let everybody that can and will attend this meeting at least no way. The invitation is not only to the Progressives, but our gallant Moderator is broad enough, has religion and common sense enough to extend the invitation to the public in general, for the cause he espouses is a righteous one, and therefore has nothing to hide. —The People's Defender.

Theatrical At the Lincoln Theatre this week there is a first-class show going on, and it is really one of the best shows that has ever played in this city. Mills and Frisby furnishes the plot in a two act musical comedy, “A Night at the Cabaret.” This is really a show, and Miss Frisby is a favorite, as 1s Billy Mills. Anne Free- man and Lula Whitby are big at- tractions as ig Douglass, the Great. ‘Mills and Frisby were Indeed for. funate in securing the services of Miss Fannie Wise to come direct from Boston, Mass, where she had just finished an engagement over Keiths Vaudeville Time. Miss Wise, who was the star with the late Williams and Walker, is without doubt the very best colored singer that has been to Nashville in a long time, We feel that her appearances here should have been given more attention, since she represents the lest and highest alonz musical lines, Miss Wise is a big sensation on white time, and the various white Louses clamor for her appearance on Mig time. It is a pity that we haye not learned to appreciate our own, When Sarah Bernhardth, for tn- stance, comes to town the white pyo- ple erowd to soo her, She if uovoth ed every possible courtesy. The schools and colleges ars eager for a visit from her. Miss Wise will Le fn the city for several days.
