$4,999 Unaccounted For--Dr.
Facts
(Several months ago 1, as a Baptist, called the attention of the Negro Baptists of Tennessee to the status of Roger Williams University. Having no friends to favor, or enemies to punish, but as president of the Missionary Baptist State Convention of Tennessee, while investigating our educational institutions preparatory to the recommendations, I desired to make at the annual session, I discovered that the Negro Baptists did not own Roger Williams University, and wrote under the caption, "Who Owns Roger Williams? The Rumpers May Not, but the Incorporated Missionary, and Educational Convention Do Not and Cannot." And now with the elaborate and exhaustive document before me, with the names of the following members of the Trustee Board of Roger Williams attached:
Wm. Haynes, G. H. Bandy, Peter Vertrees, A. D. Hurt, A. O. Kenney, H. M. Green, A. M. Townsend, P. J. Carr, Rufus W. Weaver, W. T. Highower, E. M. Lawrence, D. A. Townsend, A. B. Hill.
I confess that the revelations therein are startling, therefore I am firmer in my belief and stronger in my contention that the Negro Baptists of Tennessee do not own the institution, and the trustees not being ignorant are guilty of gross neglect and猃猾.
In my article of January 12, 1917, I treated the matter as a "blunder" by pointing out a few "legal technicalities." On January 29, 1917, I wrote in the same suggestive mood without making any charge against any one. If blunders were all we were to discuss now, this article would give me a bit of joy, but the trustees in their laborious reply have made statements that started to be more conservative, and will emphasize their most ardent admirers and humiliate their friends.
Dear Rev. Haynes would have the people think that he was placed on the sacrificial altar when he was appointed financial agent to collect $5,000, out of which he was entitled to from 10 to 20 per cent commission, beside a nice commission for making the sale for Mr. J. O. Kirkpatrick and Son. Did he get anything? He can speak for himself. Notice the trustees say:
We are prepared to prove that Roger Williams has, from the beginning of the new institution, and now does belong to the Baptists of Tennessee.
We will show that this provision was made from the start.
The above statement is lame for the want of facts to support it, for I will show later that the only genuine attempt to make it appear that the property belonged to the Negro Baptists was made eight years and five months after the property was purchased by the Home Mission Society of New York, and sixty days after my article of January 12, 1917, and yet that attempt falls through negligence and a lack of sincerity. They say—
"This there was no necessity for a change of charter nor to make an amendment thereto since the Trustees under this charter transferred all their rights and so on to a Board of Trustees elected by the Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee, which we show later.
Pure deception. They could not and cannot transfer their corporate rights to an unincorporated body. Here is the plain law and it is in their charter and they know it: LAW.—The members may at any time voluntarily dissolve the corporation by a conveyance of its assets and property to any other corporation holding a charter from the state for the purposes not of individual profit, first, providing for corporate debt.
The trustees know they did not do solve Roger Williams at the beginning or in the year of 1907. Why FOOL THE PEOPLE? The following is what the trustees would have us believe to be a transfer made October 26, 1907:
Secretary of State.
The following is the action of the Trustee Board in the transfer to the new Board as found in the minutes of meeting held at the rooms of the Southern Baptist Sunday School Board, Nashville, Tennessee, October 26, 1907.
"Motion of A. B. Hill, that the following persons selected by the Executive Board of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee be elected to fill the place of the present board to take effect when this action is approved by the Corresponding Secretary of the Amer-
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."
S THAT LE THE PEOPLE
JUST TRANSFERRED
Dr. J. L. Harding Gives Some Facts
Ican Baptist Home Mission Society. Class 1 retiring in 1910: Wm. Haynes, E. M. Lawrence, E. W. D. Isaac, C. H. Clark, J. L. Harding. Class 2: retiring in 1909: A. M. Townsend, G. H. Bandy, G. B. Taylor, W. S. Ellington, J. R. Evans. Class 3: retiring in 1908. Peter Vertrees.
It must be noted that Mr. A. B. Hill is still a member of the Trustee Board of Roger Williams University and has been continuously. This show that all the rights of the Trustee Board under the American Baptist Home Mission Society was transferred to the Trustee Board elected by the Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee.
It will also be noted with interest that in this transfer there were C. H. Clark, J. L. Harding, and G. B. Taylor. It follows therefore that whatever of ignorance was in display, whatever of fraud was in purpose, whatever of legal blunder was made, that these as well were "particels Criminis," if there were any.
I plead guilty to the honor of being elected by the convention as one of the Educational Trustees in her relation to Roger Williams, but I am authorized to say that Dr. C. H. Clark and Rev. G. B. Taylor were not at the meeting and knew nothing of it. We may have been "IN THE TRANSFER." but we were not in meeting.Nil "particels criminis" I object to being transferred to Roger Williams by the Home Mission Society.
The law says: "The trustees shall elect their own members" then why make the Home Mission Society the referee in the matter? The trustees say—
Now as to the deeds. It is a fact that the property on which Roger Williams University now stands was at first deeded to the American Baptist Home Mission Society, the consideration being $10,000.
A deed is an acknowledgement of ownership protected by the laws of the county and state. Thus they now admit that the property belongs to the American Baptist Home Mission Society.
The Home Mission Society then in fee simple transferred the property to Roger Williams University as an entity, for a consideration of one dollar, thus divorcing itself from the institution save as provided in the deed for its protection as its interest may appear in case of dissolution. Under no other condition did we expect, could we expect, or do we now expect the Home Mission Society to put out the money placed into their hands as Trustees.
To transfer in fee simple means absolute ownership without any condition attached. This was not done, and WHY FOOL THE PEOPLE?
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD said property to said Roger Williams University and its successors and assigns forever. This conveyance however, is subject to the following conditions:
(1) Said property shall never be mortagaged except with the consent of the American Baptist Home Mission Society. (2) In the event said property shall cease to be used for the purpose of Negro education under the auspices and control of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee, then in that event an interest in said property shall revert to the American Baptist Home Mission Society, which interest shall be in the same proportion to the whole property as the total amount that shall have been paid at such time by the American Baptist Home Mission Society for the purchase and improvement of said property, shall bear to the total sum which shall at that date have been expended for the purchase and improvement of said property from all sources.
Now note condition 2 provides for the Home Mission Society to get back its money if it takes all, in case the school is closed, "from all a sources," this means that if $100,000 have been spent on improvements, etc., and the creditors or fire should force sale of the property, like it did the old site, has spent $25,000 and the sale on assets $25,000, the American Banquet Society will get it all. Where is our 5,000? Nothing shall yet. The trustees say: The Convention's interest has been provided for in By-laws that were agreed upon and adopted by both the Board of Trustees and the Convention.

WHY FOOL THE PEOPLE?
NOW, Therefore, in consideration
of One ($1.00) Dollar and of the

premises aforesaid, and in consideration of the further promises of said Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention to aid annually and regularly Roger Williams University, in conducting, supporting and maintaining an institution of learning for Negroes upon the property herein described, and by authority of a resolution of its Board of Trustees or Directors the said Roger Williams University, has bargained and sold and does hereby transfer and convey unto the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee a corporation, certain real estate situated in Davidson County.
If they mean to protect our interest by this conveyance, why not say in consideration of $5,000 paid, etc? That would have been better, to say the least. Who has our $5,000? All though the Revs. Wm. Haynes, E. M. Lawrence, A. D. Hurt, Dr. Townsend and others on the 30 day of last May, 1916, chartered ' them a convention for the purpose of getting control] of our $5,000 and on the 17th day of March, 1917, the trustees of Roger Williams wrote their immortal conveyance to this new corporation, "The Tennessee, Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention repressed the small faction of the Reps in the state; and this fake conveyance was filed for record on the third day of this month (April) 1917, why not tell the people, when it was done, since it is the truth. It has taken these trustees eight years to attempt to do what they said and even say now was at first done.
We will now have to wait a period for them to undo THEMSELVES. So the Negro Baptists can ask the Home Mission Society to do what it should do in this matter to protect our interest, as they are the only ones who can.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD said property to said Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee, a corporation, its successors and assigns, subject to the rights of the American Baptist Home Mission Society as set forth in a deed of conveyance from the American Baptist Home Mission Society to Roger Williams University bearing date March 4, 1908, and recorded in Book No. 362, Page 219 of the Register's office of Davidson County, Tennessee, which deed is here referred to and made a part thereof of the records. Theses have not conveyed anything. A—in order to be in any sense legal, the Home Mission Society of New York must join in the conveyance (not this illoggotten one that won't hold water which they have made).
B—The acceptance of the one ($1) dollar is fictitious, for it is the only certified receipt that we have any record of as to what went with our $5,000. Where is the $1,999 that we intrusted to Brother Haynes? The Home Mission Society says in their deed of trust that we paid it, but failed to say to whom we paid the money. Certainly not to Mr. J. O. Kirkpatrick and Son, for their deed to the Society failed to mention it. "Consider yourself a person with all the restraining rights and powers of the Home Mission Society set out in their conveyance to Roger Williams.
D—In one paragraph they convey what they do not own, and in the next paragraph they take back what they tried to convey.
This conveyance is also subject to the further condition that the above described property shall be occupied and held by Roger Williams University, free of rent, so long as at uses said property for the purposes of Negro education under the auspices and control of said Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Tennessee.
Roger Williams has never done more than hold by occupancy the ground which belonged to the American Baptist Home Mission Society. Here I agree with a brilliant mind who said we feel something like respect for consistency even in error. We lament the virtue that is dehonored into vice; but the vice that affects a virtue becomes the more detestable."
This conveyance is not intended to and shall not have the effect of, in any way, disturbing or encumbering the rights of the American Baptist Home Mission Society as declared and set forth in its deed to Roger Williams University hereinbefore referred to.
E—The above being true you can see that the conveyance is not intended to convey anything but is intended to FOOL THE PEOPLE. "Even the world that despises simplicity does not profess to approve of duplicity." Even if the Home Mission Society had joined in this bottomless conveyance, the Negro Bantists will have nothing for their $5,000.
Now, gentlemen, why didn't the trustees tell the people that they made this conveyance on the 17th day of March 1917, and filled it on the 3rd day of April 1917, instead of on the 25th of October, 1907? If the Bantists owned the property at first who did you make this conveyance in this mouth?
If our "friends" will attend to their side of the street, we think they will have is much as they can look after, and in conclusion, we hope these few lines will find you well.
Why should we be told to attend to our side of the street? are we not a part of the Bauntists who raised the $5,000, and will honest brethren be ungrateful to a friend who points out to them a gross error in their business transactions, and at the same time admit their errors by trying to correct it and cover up the dates? They are not thankful but they are welcome.
Here I am again, brethren:
It like all other Negro Institutions is a charitable institution. There are no profits. Those who have sacrificed and are sacrificing to build up

Tuskegee Institute, Ms. April 16.—The announcement of the contest for the best clean-up work during the National Negro Health Week which is to be observed April 22-28. has elicited most favorable comments from white and colored people in all sections of the South. Letters from various committees organized to conduct Clean Up Campaigns indicate that the interest in this movement for better health is unsurpassed by that of any other similar movement among our people. President J. C. Napler of the National Negro Business League, spent several days recently at Tuskegee Institute in connection with Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal, and Emmett J. Scott, Secretary, and it has been agreed that the community planning to report their clean up activities for consideration in connection with the Silver Cups offered by the National Clean Up and Paint Up Bureau, must make their reports and mail them not later than Saturday, May 12th. This will two full weeks after the close of the Health Week for the reports to be compiled and forwarded to Tuskegee Institute.
It is worth while to bear in mind three important conditions regarding the contest. First, the reports should not exceed 700 words. Second, the reports should all be typewritten. Third, the reports should be mailed to the Secretary Nation Negro Business League, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. The committee of award as selected are announced as follows: Suggested Committee to Award Cups in Connection with Negro Health Week. Dr. Robert E. Jones, Editor Southwestern Christian Advocate, New Orleans, Louisiana. Dr. A. M. Curtis, Physician and Sungeon, Former Surgeon-in-Chief, Freedmen's Hospital, Washington, D. C. Hon. J. C. Napier, President, National Negro Business League, Nashville, Tenn. Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal, Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, Tuskegee, Alabama.

The above cannot refer to the teachers, for they are not a party to this discussion and jugglery. Then it must have reference to the sacrificing trustees. Surely "the wicked flee when no man pursueth him." Dr. G. H. Bandy, President Townsend, Dr. W. S. Ellington, A. B. Hill, Bro. Carr, Dr. Townsend own nice automobiles which they have purchased since being trustees, and I am proud of it. Rev. E. M. Lawrence, Rev. Wm Haynes and other trustees have purchased valuable property since the beginning of new Roger Williams, and I commend them for it, but why deny the facts? It is no disgrace to have purchased either or both. I confess I am dumbfounded and using the language of Shakespeare, I cry: "Oh, that deceit should dwell in such a gorgeous palace. I cannot believe the names of Rev Wm Haynes and the names of Rev Hw Haynes, Dr. G. H. Bandy, the venerable Peter Vertrees, A. D. Hurt, A. O. Kenney, H. M. Green, President A. M. Townsend, B. J. Carr, who bring great and good things to pass. Dr. Rufus W. Weaver, W. T. Hightower, Rev. E. M. Lawrence, Father Dr. D. A. Townsend and Mr. A. B. Hill signed to that startling document. Can it be that they read it before they signed their names?

INFLUX OF NEGROES NOTED
IN NEW YORK.
New York, N. Y., April 19—New York's Negro problem is becoming increasingly difficult, according to speakers at the first luncheon held by the Business Men's meetings. William J. Doherty, Deputy Commissioner of charities said that 150,000 southern Negroes had come north since war time prosperity came into evidence. They were lured by high wages and plenty of work, but when they got her they found they were not accimated, educated or experienced enough to care for themselves. Their emigration from the South gave the southernners a problem, but even usually, he said, southern employers will have to meet the high wages of fered in the North. George Foster Peabody said that when the South realized that the Negro laborers were flocking north productive conditions there would improve and the Negroes would stay there.
THE FINAL PREPARATIONS FOR BIG PYTHIAN RALLY AT AUDITORIUM SUNDAY, APRIL 29TH
The final preparations are being made for the "Great Pythian Rally" at the Ryman Auditorium Sunday, April 29th. At the last meeting the Grand Chancellors office was crowded with representatives from the various lodges and courts. Nearly forty were present. The meeting was spirited from beginning to end. The lodges and Courts are showing their loyalty by paying promptly the amount designated for expense including flags, etc. The decoration is in charge of Mrs. S. J. Nesbit, of Autumn Leaf Court. The Management Committee has made every provision for the comfort of those who shall attend the meeting. Ushers from the various lodges will be under the direct supervision of M. V. Cole of Tyrone Lodge. Appropriate music will be rendered on this occasion. Reports from the Publicity Committee show that the membership will support this movement in grand style.
As time goes on the "Temple Project" gains more friends. Each day evidences of the wisdom of this purchase are being seen. Business men are continually congratulating the heads of the Order upon their thrift and foresight. Members of every department of the Order are proud that we are to have a most magnificent building. Every Friday evening the General Committee at the Pythian. Any member of the Order may come to these meetings. There has been much benefit from allowing everybody to have the opportunity to express their views. One feature of this occasion will be the line of march as outlined by the arrangement committee. Every lodge member is expected to be in line, march from the Pythian Temple to the Ryman Auditorium where the members of the Court will be waiting for them. The Courts and the Juveniles will not be expected to march. It may not be generally known but every lodge and every Court in the city of Nashville will observe the Annu] Thanksgiving Sermon together. The choirs of the city churches are invited to take part in the singing. Upon that day the Pythians will have out every department of the Order.
PATRIOTIC MASS MEETING OF NEGROES AT ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH—ADOPT RESOLUTIONS.
Ours is not a warlike or military nation. We are now and always have been a peace loving people. During its existence our government has engaged in four wars with foreign foes. The first for independence, the second for freedom of the seas and the right of American sailors and citizens to enjoy that freedom; the third for the protection of Americans on neutral or foreign soil; the fourth in the interest of suffering humanity. In all these as well as every other American war the Negro has taken a prominent and patriotic part; and he proposes to do the same thing in the present war with Germany. In the Revolutionary war he was with Washington at Yorktown and Valley Forge, with Sullivan at the battle of Long Island, and Lawrence at Cheesapeake Bay, with Jackson at New Orleans, Scott in Mexico, Grunt Richardson, and James Miles on the Western Plains, Dewey in Manila Bay, Sampson at Santiago Roosevelt, at San Juan Hill and Boyd at Carrizal Likewise he will be with Woodrow Wilson to face the German Foe. He was first to shed on Boston Commons the life blood which proved to be the martyr's seed from which flowered the Revolution. He was with Commo

Whereas, our Government is now engaged in another foreign war into which it has been forced to reassert all of these principles of right and honor to safeguard our honor, to guard our prestige and perpetuity as a nation, to defend the freedom of our commerce, to compel respect for our long established rights, to protect the lives and liberties of our citizens on the high seas, to rebuke aggressive tyranny for its brutal disregard of the claims and pleadings of humanity, and
Whereas, in its relations to other Governments the United States for two years past has borne and is now bearing, with dignity and credit the gravest responsibilities this or any other Republic has ever been called upon to face; and
Whereas, every honorable effort has been made conscientiously to keep this country from being drawn into this most savage, sanguinary, destructive and unnecessary, but far reaching war the world has ever witnessed and
Whereas, the German Government has denied to us the freedom of the seas, has destroyed our ships and shipping, and, without justification or warning, has ordered or approved the treacherous assassination of American seamen and citizens on neutral waters outside of any defined or pretended zone of danger, and
Whereas, under the guise of friendship and hospitality of the United States, the German Government has, through its accredited official representatives plotted to embarrass this nation by fomenting racial and political intrigues among our people, black and white, by the use of money or the promise of support, by the establishment of secret cabals, hostile organizations and hosts of spys, within our borders, and inflaming the minds of people in foreign lands and trying to incite them to make war upon this country; and
Whereas, the loyalty, unity and solidarity of the American people of every creed, color or race in support of the President and Congress in such a grave crisis as this will prove a most effective barrier to the insolence, oppression of foreign foes; and
Whereas, the time has now come for all the patriotic citizens to take a stand with the Republic and the flag and the Congress, and to so announce their decision to the world; Therefore be it.
Resolved by this Mass Meeting of the colored citizens of Nashville, State of Tennessee assembled in St. John A. M. E. Church, on this the 16th day of April 1917 that, as in the above and aforementioned foreign wars we the said colored citizens here and now most solemnly assert and reaffirm our allegiance to the flag and the Republic, our undaunted faith in the constitution of the United States, our unshaken confidence in the commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy, our devotion to the principles of liberty and to the rights of the weak to exemption from torture, Slavery, starvation and debasement and destruction by the strong; and we solemnly pledge here to loyally support President Woodrow Wilson in whatever course may become necessary to enforce our rights as a people, to preserve our honor as a nai and to protect the lives of our fellow citizens at home and abroad, on land and on sea, with our service, with our blood, with our lives; and
Resolved further, that we stand ready to enroll our names in the food supply brigade, to the Army and Navy, to join the furrow organizations and to do our part in furnishing supplies for our friends at home and abroad.
Resolved further that the chairman and secretary of this meeting be directed to send a copy of these resolutions through our representative, Hon. Jes. W. Byrns, to President Woodrow Wilson.

"I had been bothered with a bronchial trouble for a number of years and suffered all the time," says Mrs. R. L.

I worried over it a great deal and really never expected to be any better, and would not have had it not been for Lung-Vita. This is the greatest medicine in the world; it has no equal, or at least I think so. Come out and see what it has done for me. I am feeling good."
When a snow melts you are liable to get your feet wet and then have a cold. And you never can tell just what a cold will lead up to if neglected. Don't neglect them—three or four doses of Lung-Vita will break one. Lung-Vita is sold by \druggists and dealers—ady.

NEGRO ACTORS MAKE DEBUT
IN DRAMA AND THE DEN
NEW YORK
Modern drama has given the stage a new and diverting form of entertainment that is one hundred percent American. The Negro play acted by Negroes. The initial appearance of colored actors at the Garden Theatre Thursday evening, April 5, of last week under the management of Mrs. Emile Hophood in three plays purporting to deal with Negro life written by Ridgely Traence, the poet, was a notable occasion, exciting more curiosity and commanding more general attention than any of this season's large crop of dramatic presentation.

MR. B. H. JANUARY.
Mr. B. H. January, resigned his position at Commercial Club Monday, in order to devote his entire time to his business, the Great Northern Tailor Shop and Confectionery store at 428 Cedar St., when members of Commercial Club learned of his resignation they insisted that he withdraw it. He received many telephone calls from women as well as men, asking him not to leave the Club, his retirement caused much regret from white and amnesiac people, during the time in England in which she shuffled gallons of Coffee, and many sandwiches were given to feed the colored fire sufferers.
He also saw that households were refinished. The success of the city Beautiful contest among colored people, was of his making. He was interested in everything good pertaining to his race that came through the Commercial Club Office. Many good things could be done in his service at the Club, and on Monday the last day of his stay, a special dinner was served him, and a farewell ceremony was held in the large private dining room of the Club.

weighty questions before them was evinced Good Friday night when Pleasant Green Church was filled with conscientious church going people to listen to a debate on the subject Resolved "That the Spread of the Gospel depends more upon the Women than the Men."
M. Olive, First Baptist E. Nashville and Mt. Zion defended the affirmative while Pleasant Green Fifteenth Ave. and Mt. Nebo defended the negative. The discussion was really one of the best ever heard among the local churches and was thoroughly enjoyed by the enthusiastic audience. The speakers on the various sides were loudly applauded on several occasions. Special mention should be made of the representative from Fifteenth Ave., who was blind. In spite of this handicap he battled against the evidence being piled up by the affirmative with great skill.
On the affirmative side, special mention should be made of Miss Dorothy Bennett and Mrs. Bradley the Mt. Zion representative. Miss Bennett is a graduate from the College department of Roger Williams and as a speaker has few equals. She opened the discussion for the affirmative. Mrs. Bradley put up a strong argument and was a credit to her class. Mrs Cora Jordan-Whitte, a graduate of Spelman Seminary at Atlanta, Ga. was the other member of the affirmative side and represented Mt. Olive Baptist Church in the discussion. Too much cannot be said of the skill and ability of Miss Dickerson of the Pleasant Green Baptist church as a rhetorician. The course she did her duty to build all the weak places in the defense of her colleagues as well as build her own line of defense. This she did with great skill and ability and Pleasant Green Baptist Church is to be congratulated in having such a strong mental asset in the person of Miss Dickerson connected with its Galeda class.
Miss Elizabeth Hamilton of the Mt. Nebo Baptist church, a teacher in the County schools was the other member of the nagative side.
The members of the various classes were indeed glad to note the interest manifested in this affair by the pastors of the city. Each of the pastors of the various churches debating were present and took active part on the program.
Before the debate, Little Hazel and Mattie Mae Baker rendered a duet which was highly appreciated. While the judges were making their decision Miss Katie A. Boyd gave a pleasing reading. The number of ceremonies was T. T. G. Marshall who enjoy the distinction of being president of the Joint organization.
The judges for the occasion were Mrs. G. E. Haynes of Fisk University, Mrs. M. L. Crosswait of Fisk University and Miss Alice A. Cushing of the Fireside Schools.

LONG HAIR THAT IS SOFT, SMOOTH AND GLOSSY
Quinade, Invented by a New York Chemist,
Stimulates and Nourishes the
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 an safe and beneficial product 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 drugists and dealers at 25c each or will be sent direct by Seeby Drug Co. 79 E. 130th St., New York City, on receipt of price. Write for sample of QUIN- ADE, mentioning the name of this paper.

Prof. Sanders rendered an encouraging and interesting address to the members and they gave him their utmost and individual attention with grave impression upon themselves and realized that every word he spoke was the gospel truth and the boys have been convinced and converted to the facts that were spoken by him. They could also, while he was talking to them imagine and convert the facts he spoke into pictures. The address given by him will never be forgotten by those who heard him, and the boys have been convinced through their reasoning faculties that what they heard him say they believe and that they will try and do what the "Old Indian song" which has 99 verses, if on want to be a success, keep, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on.

WALDEN UNIVERSITY
Rev. Albion E. Smith of Wisconsin, was speaker at Assembly Hour on Friday of last week. His address on self-mastery was full of helpful, practicable suggestions for young people at the present time.
Dr. J. D.] Chavis conducted the Sunday morning service in the college chapel and spoke on conversation of resources in the matter of food products in our country.
The address by Bishop William Quayle, Litt. D., LL. d, delivered in Cincinnati at the fiftieth anniversary of the Freedmen's Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and published in the Southwestern Christian Advocate, was read in part by Mrs J. D. Chavis at the chapel hour Monday.
The Alumni Entertainment given in the chapel on Saturday evening was a success. Four young ladies of the school have been selling tickets for the place as queen of the contest, and on Saturday evening each had a pretty decorated table and sold refreshments. At the close of the evening it was found that Miss Cornella Bates, representing the city students, had had a great time collecting the Moores, the Music department, ranked second; Miss Aurelia Clement, the boarding students, *third*; and *Miss Smith*, the Commercial department, fourth. The young ladies are highly commended for raising fifty dollars' this way toward the fund for the new dormitory for girls.
PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
the contestants in the annual debate of this school have been trained to a fine edge and are ready for the great battle. The colors of this school are cherry and white. The Affirmative will be defended by Miss Tiny Clendening and Miss Mary Jackson, who will wear the cherry. The Negative side of the question will be supported by Miss Mabel McGavock and Miss Ruth Upshaw, who will wear the white. Already, the entire student body, despite the easterly weather, each pupil intending to wear the color of her favorite. Enthusiasm runs high and sentiment is divided as to who will be the winners.
This is the first time that the public has had an opportunity to hear a debate waged by all Pearl contestants. Pearl has heretofore sent the negative team away. But on account of flood conditions in Chattanooga, the suspension of the schools for three weeks and the consequent loss of time by the children from their studies, Prof. Singleton, the principal of the Howard High School, deemed it best to withdraw from the league for this year. This caused Misses Upshaw and McGavock to remain at home. Preparation had gone so far, however, that the principal of Pearl decided not to disappoint the public with the wholeilo which he advocated the debates so liberally for the last four years, but to hold a local debate between his own pupils. The debate will be given exactly as it was prepared for the triangular debate league.
Pupils who have heard the debaters in their practice affirm that it will be the most interesting, the most hotly contested forensic struggle ever given in Nashville. The subject is one that should enlist the interest of every negro in the city. "Resolved, That the formation of a separate political party would be for the best interest of the Negro." Some things are said that every Negro ought to hear.
The Graduating Class Meets
The Class of 1917 will be the largest
the history of the school. The list
of affiliated institutions is
Superintendent by Dr] F. G. Smith,
the principal, numbers 52. Of course it
is hardly possible that there will be no
failures. The 19 members of the Jan-
uary division have passed their exam-
inations and unless some serious
misconduct occurs to cause them
to forfeit their right to graduation, they
will receive their diplomas. But the
33 in the June division have yet to
pass through the fiery ordeal of a
final examination. Parents, take notice
and warn your children who are
candidates not to waste their time
in the course, not to leave the
history in the History Room and submit
their measurements for the
High School Cap and Gown, which
will be worn on Commencement night.
The Class pin was selected, which
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY APRIL 20, 1917.
will hereafter be the school pln. A Pearl graduate in future can be recognized anywhere in the world by that pln.
Commencement Practice
Under the direction of Miss E. N. Murrell, the Boys' and Girls' Glebs Club and the Choral Union are getting into shape for the Commencement Exercises. The music will be fully up to the standard. The Girls Club will sing "Ring, Lily Bells," "At Morn," and a jubilee selection. The Boys Club will sing Daniel in the Lion's den and "How much wood would a wood-chuck chuck," Miss Claudia_Brown will deliver the Valedictory Address on the subject "Bend to the oar, though the tide be against you." Daniel will present our esteemed follow citizen, Mr. A W.Brown, of whom Pearl School is proud. This is the second valedictorian furnished by the Brown family, Miss Willa A. Brown being the Valedictorian of the Class of 1912.
Prof. J. L. White Addresses Pearl Students
A most instructive address was delivered to the student body of Pearl High School last Friday. In view of the nation-wide campaign for home gardens by President Wilson, Gov. Rye and Mayor Ewing, the students of Pearl have enlisted in the "Army of the Furrows" and will do their part to build up the food supply of this country. Prof. White is an expert on agriculture and he gave the pupils some valuable information on "Soils and how to prepare them for home gardens." He also suggested to the children what to plant and the best time to plant certain vegetables. His description of "hardy plants," "tender plants" and "shade plants" and the preparation of the soil for them was helpful to both teachers and pupils. At the conclusion of his address, a vote of thanks was extended him.

HOUSEMAIDS' SCHOOL PROPOSED.
Louisville, Ky. April 19—The peopie of this section are deeply interested in a bill introduced into the Indiana Legislature for the establishment at New Albany of a housemaids' training school for Negro women. A similar bill was introduced two years ago and passed the Senate, but did not get through the House. One of the senators who bill just introduced provides an appropriation of $25,000 for the maintenance of a school.
FAYETTEVILLE
Mr. Britt Washington and his sister, Mrs. Joice Washington Kelso, left last week for Ohio. Others will leave this week. As we go from one place to the other we meet great discussion as to the Negro migration. There is quite a diversity of opinion. Some argue in favor of it. some against it, but we don't think so strangely about it for people to go where they can command better wages. many of them have gone and found wages a great deal better. Some report they are getting as high as $5 a day in mills and factories, and none are getting less than $2.00 a day. We don't know this is true, but have been told by very good people. In our travel we hear many who argue that the migration is for revenge. But we, the agent, don't thing that is true. We think if all things were equal they would rather remain, for the South is our home and we love it; but low wages and land is found in some states, poor school; in the rural districts the school advantages are not very poor, though places have the very few, some do not receive a three year of schooling during a year, for the school houses are in such bad shape, but can only go when the weather is good and the teachers are so poorly paid that nothing but "fack legs" are the positions, for the teachers, for colored teachers are not as much as that paid to a common field hand. After children have gone to these teachers they are no better of than they were when they started. We think these are some of the things that have caused the movement of going north. Now we are not speaking of this state for we don't travel through this state very much. We will give more on the subject in our next write-up. Read the Globe each week, Mrs. Maud (White) teaches Huntsville, Ala., formerly of this place. There were last week to the sick bed of her father mother, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. White, Both are still in bed. We do hope them a speedy recoverv. Mr. James Allen Whittaker is still sick, Mrs. Beans of Kelo, Tennessee, is not expected to recover. Her daughter returned to Birmingham Monday. Special services are to be held at the A. M. E. Church next Sunday at 2:30 p.m., also at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church at 4 p. m. Dr. Morton will preach
at these two churches at said hours. Dr. Morton is a white evangelist holding a meeting in this place for his people. He has a national reputation as an able and progressive pastor and preacher. His helper is a great speaker and splendid singer. He will also speak and sing at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church at 4 p. m., next Sunday. Mrs. Sallie Chalk, 704 Franklin street, Huntsville, Ala., paid on her subscription to the Globe last week. We would be glad to see others do the same way. Don't get behind with us, then say L don't want it any longer. Mrs. Bob Alexander of Gadden, Ala., formerly of this place, is not expecting to live. We is very low at this writing. Rev. Morton of Chattanooga is holding a great revival at Mt. Zion Baptist Church. Rev. Morton is a God-sent man. He is doing a great work for Christ. Rev. Henry Smith died on April 11, 2014. The Primitive, Baptist lost a good man and the community a good citizen. His funeral was conducted by the following ministers: Revs. D. D. Word, G. T. Word, Nathaniel Congo and A. M. Donaldson. Burial on the Bridge. The colored citizens of Payetteville met at the City High School building on April the 9th and organized an agricultural club, Tref. G. T. Hall was made chairman of the meeting.

NEAL-FOX WEDDING
Characterized by many beautiful details was the wedding last Wednesday evening of Miss Lizzie M. J. Fox and Mr. Samuel B. Neal which was solemnized at 8:30 o'clock at the home of the bride's father, Mr. George Fox, 1409 Thirteenth avenue, South. The home was lavishly decorated throughout with terus and carnations, and these flowers were employed in the altar which was erected in the living room, before which the briday party was grouped for the ceremony. Rev. W. S. Ellington performed the ceremony in an unusually impressive way. Mrs. J. L. Murray presided at the piano and a pre-nuptial program was given by Misses Iff Moores and Ella L. Wedding. Mendolsohn's Wedding March was played for the approach of the bridal party, which was led by the two ribbon bearers, Mrs. W. A. Reed and Miss Ada Dickerson. First came Mrs. T. A. Frierson, matron of honor, tastefully gowned in a white silk crepe de chine carrying a white carnation. Then Miss Nannie J. Bender, maid of honor, gowned in a silk net trimmed with lace and ribbon. Her flowers were also white carnations. Little Miss Helen Dorothy Martin, a niece of the bride, was the flower girl and in her lingere with ribbon accessione Master William E. Williams, a nephew of the bride, bore the wedding ring on a silver tray. Then came the bride's dress on the arm of her father. She wore an exquisite gown of white embroidered imported silk with an overdress of silk net. A wedding veil of tulle extending to the end of her train was worn and it was fastened with a wreath of Hiles of the valley. Her only ornament was a string of pearls. Her bouquet was a shower of bride's roses. She was met at the altar by the groom with his best man. Mr. Eugene Page.
An informal reception followed the ceremony. The guests numbering 150 ice were served in which a color scheme of green and white were carried out. The large collection of valuable presents, consisting of silver, cut glass, linens and china and household furniture, attested the popularity of the couple.
Mr. and Mrs. Neal are at home to their many friends at 1606 Harding street. Out-of-town guests were Prof J. W. Johnson, Miss Maggie Greene Columbia; Mrs. Ewing Roberts and Children, Clarksville; Miss Nannie Bender, Avondale, Tenn.
SOME REALLY DRY STATES
SOME REALLY DRY STATES.
Chicago, Illinois, April 19- Before anti-
liquor enthusiasts about themselves
hoarse over the Webb Kenny bill
let them look up just how many of
the "dry" states forbid the shipment
of liquor into the state. The Webb
Kenny bill might be a triumph for
dry states. But there are a set of really
dry states. But there are only five
where there is any provision
shipment in, and these are unimport-
ant states.
The Supreme Court decision grew out of the provision of the West Virginia law, which says that all shipments are forbidden. Individuals may carry in limited quantities for person al use under certain restrictions. Then there is Arizona where the law provides that all shipments are for bidden for beverage purposes. Wine instrumental use and alcohol for scientific purposes are excepted. Idaho allows no liquor to be shipped except alcohol for scientific, mechanical, medicinal and religious purposes. Oregon says that no intoxicating If quors shall be imported into the state for beverage purposes.
Now these four states are the only ones that prohibit the shipment in of liquors.

In her long and wide experience, Miss King has played every possible role. Her first actual stage engagement, after she ceased to be an infant in arms, was an important child part with Maxine Elliott in "Her Own Way." She was then seven years old. Her performance made a hit both in New York and in London. As a child she actress also played in "The Royal Family" and "The Little Princess." She played with Denman Thompson in his vaudeville sketch, "Joshua, Wheatcomb."
Of a studious disposition, Miss Kins did not permit her stage work to interfere with her studies. She attended the New York public schools, graduating from Wadleigh High School. After her graduation she acted as an understudy for Elizabeth Brice in the musical comedy "The Winsome Widow" playing the star's part on many occasions. She was then fifteen years old. Afterward she played the role of a seaser and her sister Nelle and filled an engagement with "The Passing Show" at the Winter Garden. Her last work on the stage was in support of Sam Bernard in "The Belle of Bond Street."
SCREEN VILLAIN HAS HAD
ADVENTUROUS LIFE
Picture, if you can, Warner Oland, dignified, serious, artistic portrayer of gentlemanly villains on the screen, whirling about a great arena astride a bicycle. Once though he was a professional bicycle rider, this greatest of all "heavies," who plays Baron Huxkoi in support of Mrs. Vernon Castle in International's serial of romance and patriotism, which released under the Pathe hanner, is shown at the Star theater.
Little is known about the private life of Warner Oland, and it was with difficulty that this artistic actor was persuaded to talk even briefly of him self. He is a born sportsman and enjoys more an afternoon on the golf links than in talking about him self.
Despite his remarkable Japanese ap pearance in the role of Baron Hurok in "Patria's Warner Oland" was born in Umen, Sweden, almost at the top of the world," as he expresses it. Dur ing his early life, he spent his leis are hours when there was daylight in the far north sailing over the snow clothed hills.
When he was ten years old, he was brought to America by his parents. A great ambition lurked in his mind. He aspired to become an opera singer, but his dream of picking up gold in the streets of New York was quickly displeased. Instead of receiving the paludits from the Horeseshoe Circle at the Metropolitan, he was riding around the ring at Madison Square Garden in company with Frank Kramer, Eddie Ball, Lloyd McFarlane, Harry Elks, and other famous professional bicycle riders of the day. But all the time he was humming the pathetic Italian aria "Addia" from "Traviata" and his dream of operatic life continued.
Finally, tired of bicycle riding, he went to Boston, landing there with nine dollars in his pocket, three of which he spent for a vocal lesson. For months he had a difficult time securing enough to eat, but finally got a position as a super in the production of Hall Quaine's "The Christian," which was to have its premier in Boston. From among the super, the stage manager wanted a young man who could sing Gonoud's "Jeeus of Nazareth." Orland jumped at the opportunity and because he could do the solo, he was granted the munificent sum of eighteen dollars a week.

Have Your Church Keep Records
Prominent Leaders to Deliver Patriotic Addresses--National Airs to be Ren-
The Negroes of Nashville are not one whit behind those of any other city in their loyalty to the American flag. They are for their country and their flag. They will assemble at Hadley Park Sunday afternoon and declare in song and in speech their willingness and readiness to stand by their country in any capacity needed. The stalwart men, the strong men, the youth and the women and girls will be there. Everybody will be at Hadley and although thousands have gathered there on patriotic anniversaries in the past and given demonstration worthy of each occasion, yet in this instance every man, woman and child of every age and condition, has heard the call to arms, and like their ancestors from Bunker Hill to Carrizal, they will be there.
The Board of Trade, through its committee, has been busy for the past week making preparations. This live and wide-awake body which has accomplished so much for the race in its brief existence, is ever on the watchtower for the rescue of the Negro. Come and hear the patriotic music. Come join in the songs, hear the patriotic speeches and join in the resolutions acclaiming loyalty to our country and flag.
The Negro Board of Trade commenced after the Metropolitan Insurance Company about a year ago and never let up until a splendid young woman was employed as nurse. The company was in doubt as to the acceptance of a Negro nurse, but from the way the race has demonstrated its enthusiasm over the appointment of Miss Farnell, the answer has been satisfactory, for she has been unable to meet the calls and the company temporarily, and we hope permanently.
The Negro Board of Trade has joined hands with the young men of Fisk University in a banquet at Jubilee Hall next Wednesday night, after his lecture in Fisk Chapel to Dr. Du Bois in which the public is requested to participate. Tickets to the banquet can be had from any member of the committee upon request.
