His subject was "Conditions of Life." In part he said: "The real test of civilization is manhood, not how much money one can make to spend for the things that give one social standing. Nor is there any condition in life which necessitates a failure. It is not a matter of how long one lives but how one lives. It is just as honorable to wear overalls as it is to wear broadcloth. The man who is a man is just as honorable when he walks or rides in an automobile; whether he lives in a small house or a palace. It is a matter which chooses he has the right philosophy of life." Prof. Sherrill stated that the state need the young men and women which it turns out from such an institution and requested that they return to their various communities and with the expert knowledge gained help to make them better and more productive. You should live up to the lessons which you have learned here. The illustrated orations by the graduates were very interesting.

Foraker, Soldier, Statesman, Defender of American Negro. Joseph B. Foraker Joseph B. Foraker. Approach thy grave like one who Wraps the drapery of his couch above him. And lies down to pleasant dreams. —Bryant. The world feeds upon emulation. Humanity is but breathing deeds. The curtain falls upon either the ending life or the life beginning. The bier of the fallen great is memory's golden sunshine. They that mourn there pay tribute to that faith which hope has enriched, and enriches still, with evidences of immortality! Joseph Benson Foraker died Thursday, day, May 10th, at his home in Cincinnati. His name was a word of itself and answered for courage, for intellectual powers, for abilities that marked him truly great, and now that he has gone, will keep his memory fresh as one of the renowned figures of his day and generation. Soldier, orator, statesman, ruler, he was everywhere true to himself and a man of virtue, upright and just, moving across the land, playing like one taught by nature of play a nightly part with touch and finish. He was unmatched by any throughout his career. Tens of thousands held him to be matchless. He was the idol of the Republican party in his state and throughout the states. He was a man of God, and from the lips of eloquence, shot the speech of righteous indignation straight to the heart of injustice. The ancients had no figure before them that more than he could exude young men to valor. His monument will be in the deathless record of his illustrious career, for in the galaxy of the great, neither famer nor name of any can be higher than either the name or name of this man who chose to stand from security and spoke for truth in the face of the. The Lincoln Republican League, whose membership were ever on his heart, and whose principles are identical with those upon which he rose, and upon which his fame as the great leader in political thought will rest, advances the following resolution: "Whereas, Joseph B. Foraker, distinguished lawyer, famous orator, for mer governor of Ohio; former United States senator from Ohio; soldier in the Union Army, champion of the rights of man, is dead; and, "Whereas, for forty years he stood the shock of combat and conflict without a single variance from the principles of the Republican party or the judgments of God, dedicating his wonderful talents to the cause of the oppressed and weak; and, "Whereas, his career shines forth both for brilliance and integrity, for devotion to duty, for courage on fields of war and peace alike, for wisdom, his words enriching the records of a state and a nation; for honor, no stain attaching to his name; for gentleness in that distinguished house of which he was head and builder; and for all the elements that mark the truly great; and, "Whereas, he was the vigilant and constant defender of the cause of the American Negro, for whom he sacrificed friends and power; therefore be it "Resolved, that the Lincoln Republican League spread upon the minutes this record of respect and grief, and extend to the family, his friends and the nation, our sympathy in the sorrow that has overtaken all in the death of one who taught all by an example second to none in history, ancient or modern. "Resolved, further, that a copy of this resolution and record be sent to Mrs. Foraker, and a copy furnished the press." Executive Committee Lincoln Republican League. —World Reporter. WORK OF MR. WM.

BAPTIST MEETING NEAR COLUMBIA Executive Board of Three Bodies-Bulk of Business Transacted Great Session. Special to the Nashville Globe, May 18th. After completing a program for the Missionary Baptist State Convention and doing much other important business, the Executive Boards of the Convention proper and its auxiliary adjourned here tonight. The three Boards in session contained the Executive Board of the Convention proper, Rev. L. Hurding, D. D., as president, and Rev. H. M. Burns, D. D., as secretary; the Executive Board of the Women's Auxiliary, with Mrs. Ferguson of Murfreesboro as chairman, and Mrs. Harding of Nashville as secretary, and the Executive Board of the Stone River Association, with Mrs. Genele Patterson as president, and Mrs. Murfreesboro as secretary, who full days and two nights we gave two timely to executive sessions, wherein a bulk of business was transacted. There was enough intermission, however, to sandwich in fervent devotion. It was said that the spirituality of the meeting far exceeded that of most general sessions. The opening sermon was preached by Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., on Thursday night. Rev. S. C. Umbly, D. at 1 o'clock Rev. S. C. Umbly, D. at 1 o'clock Rev. S. C. Umbly, D. on tonight Rev. E. W. Hawthorne, D. D., delivered another sermon. President Harding said tonight just before leaving for Nashville, "We have had a most interesting and inspiring session, we have been able to do some real work, the result of which will be seen ere our convention convenes at Smyrna, Teen, July 11th. We have had a great convention the convention was to pay our respect to the missionary and educational work. The election of three missionaries to operate under the Mission Board, which Board is to be located in Nashville, with Rev H. M. Burns, as chairman; Rev S. S. Cumby, as superintendent of missions, assisted will serve in East Tennessee, and Rev J. T. Tunstall, Jr., who will operate in West Tennessee, solving a perplexing problem. Then in addition to this, our plan for bringing up the educational feature of our denominational work will bring satisfactory results. The women of our convention have their shoulders to hold, the men of our harmony with our well-held plana. They expect through their local missionary organization, to not only help in the state work in general, but to do something for Panama. In completing our program for the State Convention, a place was given for representation of every department of our work. While it is true that we will be able to meetings in Tennessee during the year, notes will attract more attention than this meeting at Smyrna." The Duck River Baptist Church, under the pastorate of Rev. M. D. Batson, D.D., had made great preparations for the meeting. The largest delegation that has ever attacked a Board meeting was present. They were met at the station and the entire community for miles around vied for the position of president. Perhaps the busiest man in Middle Tennessee was the Rev. Dr. Batson, the pastor of the church. On Thursday a regular basket dinner feast was served, the women of the church bringing in the catables of the season. On Friday this program was changed and the delegates were sent to the homes. One of the features of the Board meeting was the commencement of the farmers for the purpose of discussing "The World Crisis." It was a meeting in which the army in the furrows met and made up a part of the religious army where they prayerfully and tearfully considered the condition confronting the people at this particular crisis. A near revival broke out, and spiritualism was at its height. The old and the young participated, and the echoes of the meeting with its inhabitants were heard by the well-versed members in the convention to already be felt, notwithstanding the meeting only closed tonight. Columbia and Nashville, with scattered delegates from other portions of the state, were largely in attendance. This quarterly meeting is the last one that will be held before the opening of the state convention. The financial part of the session was one of the pleasing features. It was a meeting of the pastors felt the need of a liberal response and sent up their donations according to the notice and the taxation. NEGROES GOING NORTH. Negroes are still moving Northward in large numbers and will do so until the end of the war. The war has closed the avenues through which the large manufacturing centers receive their supplants of labor. Factories are being enlarged by the government at advanced prices. They must have laff. If it does not come they will seek it. No other door is so easily opened as the one to the Southern Negro. In the South wages are much lower than those offered. Other advantages seem inviting him Northward. Many will go and improve conditions for themselves and families. They will meet with bitter dispointment and will attack and filled with regret.

NUMBER 30 Fifty Blocks Burned-More Substantial Homes to be Rebuilt-Only One Death Resulted. Atlanta, Ga., May 23—(Special to Nashville Globe),—Not in the history of this city has such a catastrophe fallen upon it as the great fire which began here Monday. The fire broke out at 1 p. m., in the residential section, and raged with all of its fury, destruction and devastation, following its wake. Firefighters were added by the strong wind which assumed the proportions of a gale. It wiped out and licked up every structure, whether frame, concrete, or brick, in its path. For a time it seemed that the entire city was doomed to destruction. Many have already been heard to express themselves as saying it was to the eye what the mind perceived when reading of the destruction of Sodom and Armenia and the attack of the bickers in the residential section of the city where white and colored both resided, had been entirely devastated when the fire was finally under control. It began in the fourth ward. When the first alarm was in and after the firemen had responded it was soon discovered that the gale, which was then in all of its fury, increase the threat to that section of the city. The citizens once attempted to cope with the situation by sending out a general alarm for help to the neighboring towns. Such cities as Macon, Athens and all outlying suburbs close to Atlanta responded readily, assistance coming from as far as Chattanooga and Nashville, Teen. The origin of the fire as yet has not been fully known, but it began in the neighborhood of Deca through Fort street. Hillard street, right up to Ponce De Leon. It left thousands homeless and cloth less. The total loss of the fire is estimated at fifty millions of dollars. Anxiety was felt for the safety of the magnificent Odd Fellows' Hall and Auditorium building, and it seemed for a time it was doomed. Heroic efforts were put forth. The fire came within one block of the building. The loss to the colored people of the city is estimated at one-half million dollars. Five churches were destroyed in the confession and hundreds of fine mansions belonging to the whites were destroyed. The city was checked by the aid of dynamite, buildings being blown up to keep them from serving as added fuel to the flames. Long before the smoke of the fire had died away patriotic meetings were called and the citizens, white and colored, of the city decided to build a better, and more substantial Atlanta. These homes that are to be built will replace those destroyed Monday. It is not supposed that the loss by fire will interfere in the least with the coming of the great National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), which Atlanta has held here, which Spartanburg, as it is located from Dr. E. R. Carter and Mr. B. J. Davis that the citizens as a whole would cooperate in getting the city in readiness for the entertainment of the meeting. The citizens throughout the country have been wiring in their sympathy and offering assistance. 43rd. Session of General Assembly.

Stating also that as we as a race had always and at all times proven loyal as citizens of the United States of America, and that now we are in a position to prove as valuable an asset to a great cause and as many could and would collist in the army service others could and will help these along 2 "I have had asthma for twenty years and have tried various remedies without results," said Mrs. J.

All Negro Actors With Noble M. Johnson Leading Man. Exchanges Being Opened. California Concern Chooses Newspaper Man to Manage Their Branch Offices. Out in sunny Southern California where the perfume of the orange blossom is the pleasing odor of the almond blossom. The Lincoln Motion Picture Company. The pathway to success by giving the public a moving picture plays of an exceptionally high standard in which all of the principal actors are Negro men, women and children. The Lincoln Motion Picture Company is an all-Negro corporation and, like all successful white motion picture companies, has selected Southern California as its studio home. Almost in the shadow of Universal City, a city built solely for the purpose of making moving pictures, this all-Negro firm has produced and given to the movie lovers two photoplays that have been pronounced a complete success by the critics of the cinematographic art. The first production was a two-part W OFFER thoroughly good and reliable balls with rich, clear anilar-reaching tones at very low prices.

Get our discounts and be convinced of the real value offered. BELL drama of love and adventure, which is known as "The Realization of a Negro Ambition", in which Mr. Noble M. Johnson takes the leading role; he is admirably supported by Miss Beulah Hall, whose ability to laugh, pout or cry at will, stamps her as a star of the Mary Pickford type. The latest release of the Lincoln Company is a thrilling three-part drama known as "The Trooper of Troop K," and is also humorous and pathetic lines until it reaches a elixm with the pictorialization of the battle at Carrizal, Mexico, in which two troops of the famous Tenth Cavalry ambushed and almost wiped out by an oppressive number of Carranista soldiers. This picture cost thousands of dollars, as over three hundred and fifty people took part, including Ex-Ninth and Tenth Cavalrymen, Mexicans, cowboys and others. The Lincoln Motion Picture Company is to be congratulated that it has gone into the business of making Negro moving pictures which are elevating, instructive and uplifting instead of the cheap burlesque type. The best, portrays the Negro either as a self oroger. This company has established branch offices in Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Omaha, and in negotiating for offices in New York. A novel innovation in connection with the opening of branch offices, is that the company has thus far selected experienced Negro newspaper men as their branch representatives. The Chicago office is in charge of Mr. Tony Langston of the Chicago Defender; the St. Louis office is conducted by Mr. W. H. King, associate editor of the St. Louis Argus; and the New Orleans office has as its head, Mr. D. Ireland Thomas, editor and owner of the Daily Observer; the Atlanta office is in charge of Mr. R. Black, manager of the Auditorium Theatre; the Philadelphia office is conducted by Mr. Clarence E. Wells of the Philadelphia Tribune, and Mr. Geo. P. Johnson is manager General Booking offices at Omaha, Nebraska. Forward Ouest Girls.

Still seeking to outdo their former record, the flying squadron of the Sunday School Campaign workers continued their work last Sunday. Perhaps the most extensive trip ever made in an automobile in one day was accomplished by the Sunday School Congress Secretary, the Rev Henry V. Bibb, and the Sunday School squadron. The total distance of miles was 160. They began Sunday morning at seven o'clock. The first town visited was Goodlettsville, Tenn., from thence to Springfield, from there to Adairville, Ky., thence to Russellville, Ky. At Russellville they met a great ovation. The Rev P. P. Blighes and Prof. W.H. Haddox, pastor of the First Baptist Church and Sunday School, respectively, had gotten an inkling of their coming. The Sunday school was in session when they arrived at 10:30, and although dusty from a fast ride, they marched right into the Sunday school, the Congress Secretary being spokesman of the occasion. Previous arrangements had made for the First Baptist Church to give a joint reception. The Rev, Mr. Boyd told of the work of the Congress, impressed upon them the importance of a large attendance, and after a brief introduction, pulled out for Bowling Green. They reached Bowling Green at 12:30 and drove directly to the First Baptist Church. Dr. Dr. Drane, the pastor Mr. Pearson, the superintendent, and the entire congregation gave them a hearty welcome. As soon as the sermon was over Dr. Drane introduced the Congress Secretary, who made a brief talk, after which it was learned that at least twenty-five delegates would come out of Bowling Green with a company of Boy Cadets. The run of the tour was followed by a visit where the Rev. T. W. Mack, who for thirty-five years has pastored, waited their arrival. His people had been advised that the party would pass through Franklin. Although it was three o'clock before they arrived, the preparations that had been made were still in tact. One hour was spent at Franklin, where the sound of the train was heard for the remainder of their journey. On their return trip they stopped at Adairville, where Miss Edna Arnold and Mr. Taylor had assembled the Boy Cadets. When the Congress Secretary and his squadron arrived, the boys stood to attention and the congregation cheered. Only twenty minutes were spent in Adairville, the train departing at 8:15 SUNDAY, arriving in Nashville at 8:15 SUNDAY, completing a run of 160 miles from 7:00 a.m., until 8:15 p.m. The Blue Grass State, therefore, at the conclusion of this drive, had its first real taste of the ginger being put into the present campaign by this squadron. Accompanying the Sunday School School Secretary on the trip, five students from the Mt. Nebo Baptist Church; Mrs R. H. Boyd, the wife of Dr. Boyd, of the Publishing Board, and mother of the Secretary of the Sunday School Congress, Mrs. Henry A. Boyd, Misses Katie Albertine Blow and Eleanor Blow, both of pleasing features of these campuses that Mrs R. H. Boyd, like her husband, has never allowed one to pass without joining the party.

One of the most pleasing features of the commencement period thus far, was the Press Day in which the graduates Saturday night in the chapel and parlor, from 7 to 9:30. Residents were served by a committee of the Juniors, who acted as caterers, and the guests indulged in games and other innocent amusements. Sunday at 4:00 p. m., the chapel was filled with a capacity audience to listen to the accaulareure sermon by Dr. D. E. Hinkle, of the white Methodist church. At the hour of services, the two classes, the English and the Normal, marched in to the music of the processional played by Mrs. Vitula Clemmons, and took their seats in front of the platform. The English classes were dressed in their dainty white uniform, while the Normals were clad in their regulation caps and gowns. Music was furnished by the choral class, while Miss Ella Jones, the musical directress, sang a solo. The ministers of the city were present and occupied seats on the rostrum. At the conclusion of the services, and just before the offering was taken, Mr. Arnett Murray, a former student of Turner College, presented a purse of $6.10 as gift to the college, from the Sunday school of Mt. Eagle. This money was collected last summer during the Mt. Eagle season, and division was made between the various schools. Mr. Murry represented Turner College. The presentation was made in a applause, and the president in a formal thank, thanked Mr. Murry for his kind consideration of Turner, his old school, and their exercises to follow are, the annual address Monday night by Dr. J. H. Hale, of Nashville; elocutionary contest; Tuesday night; the graduating exercises of the two classes, and the classes in domestic art. The trustee board is in session this week. A full account of the commencement will appear in these columns next week. MT. CARMEL Sunday was a gay day in our community. The autos and buggies went rolling through the country to the Salem Baptist Church to hear the memorial service of the late Rev. Peter Jackson, who died at his home in Blythville, Ark. This being his native home his body was shipped here for burial. Mrs. Lizzie Jackson, wife of Mr. Elliott Jackson, departed this life on the 19th and was buried in the Mill Stone Mountain Cemetery in John. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. B. pastor of the Little John Baptist Church. She leaves to mourn their loss a husband, four children and a host of relatives and friends. She was a loving wife and a most affectionate mother. Prof. W. P. Bell and family of Rialto spent the day with Mr. Bert Parks and family last Friday. They enjoyed a pleasant time fishing and seining. Miss Susie Yarhoe returned to her home last Saturday after a week's stay with Mrs. Mary S. Malone. Mr. W. L. Alexander was the guest of Miss Robert A. Bryant Sunday. We have been having some dry weather, but the heavy rain on last Monday night made everything all right. A deal of love has been replanted.

The District Superintendent of the Nashville District of the Methodist Episcopal Church called a meeting of the pastors on his district to discuss plans relative to the fiscal deficiency for the year ending Oct. 11, 1917. The sessions lasted from May 14, 15, inclusive. The following pastors were present Revs. W. R. Stephens, B. D., of Clark Memorial; D. T. Burch, of Seay's Chapel; W. E. Mitchell, of Braden Memorial; J. A. Hill, of Nolensville Circuit; J. A. Hill, of Nolensville Circuit; J. H. Thompson, D. D., of Murfreesboro Station; G. A. Hill, of Springfield Station; M. Hill Williams of Gainesville Circuit; J. R. Gray of巩山县 Circuit; W. B. Crenshaw of Brentwood Carolina Ransom, of Shelbyville Station. The following visitors were present at the last session: Mr. Wm. Copeland, superintendent of Seay's Chapel Sunday School; Rev. J. D. Chavis, D., dean of Waiden University, and Rev. J. B. Booth, district superintendent of the Central District. Messages of regret of their inability to attend were sent by Rev. J. W. Lewis, of Murfreesboro Circuit, and Rev. J. P. Price, of Hubbard Chapel, the latter having been very sick in bed for several days. Special prayers were offered in his behalf. At the second session the District Superintendent, Rev. J. H. Ellis, in presenting the object of his calling the pastors to discuss the financial outlook of the conference year said that he was well aware of the high cost of Living and the scarcity of money; so he felt that the brethren of his district needed congratulations that was done and encouragement for what he did in order that they may put new zeal in their several charges, and 'instead of falling behind the Nashville District should hold its own and even do better that the years go by. Dr. Stephens made the opening speech on the subject. He said his convictions were: "The present conditions are divine', and all that the brethren have to do is face it and work trusting in God. He advised a standard should be set in the Nasr District and that it should make efforts to raise more money this year, notwithstanding the tried circumstances under which the men have to labor. Revs. Walters and Thompson spoke in the same stream, endorsing the views of the opener and showed briefly how they had already laid plans on their charges to surmount difficulties and make a round report. Rev. Miles Williams spoke very satisfactorily of the state of his work and said he had no cause to cry "hard time." A motion to eliminate the cry "hard time" by the Nasrville District was offered by Rev. Stephens seconded by Rev. Thompson, and carried unanimously. The meeting was presented as below. A.—To get an estimate of the amount required to be raised in order that the Nashville District may present a round report at the annual conference under the following heads: 1. Ministerial Support. 2. Benevolence. 3. Current Expenses and Church Debts. 4. Walden University. B.—To set plans to raise it. It was decided that a budget of each charge be brought in at next session and a formulated plan to raise the required amount. The following is the Budget estimated by the pastors present and the District Superintendent for the absentees Murfreesboro Station . . . $550 00 Smyrna Circuit . . . 500 00 Braden Memoriali . . . 700 00 Seac's Chapel . . . 700 00 Shelvyville . . . 500 00 Clark Memorial . . . 2,000,00 Nolensville Circuit . . . 400 00 Springfield Station . . . 250 00 Dilton Circuit . . . 350 00 Gordon Chapel . . . 700 00 Murfreesboro Circuit . . . 500 00 Brentwood . . . 350 00 Eleventh Avenue . . . 259 99 Hubbard Chapel . . . 150 00 Gatneville Circuit . . . 300 00 Shelvyville . . . 250 00 Flat Rock . . . 150 00 Ashland City . . . 150 00 Springfield Circuit . . . 200 00 Lascassas Circuit . . . 250 00 Thompson Chapel . . . 50 00 The above amount is necessary to make up the deficit for this financial year. The estimate is $10,000 in round figures to be raised on the district by team work from now until the 30th of September. when a general rally is to be held in every charge and a report made to the District Superintendent on October 1st. An Executive Committee is to be named consisting of the district superintendent, the pastors of the charges and seven laymen, also a sub-committee consisting of each pastor and four or five members of his charge. The plan will be submitted by the chairman to the ministerial meeting on May 22nd. Amongst the questions of interest discussed were: (a) The payment for conference minutes; (b) the appointment of proper leaders in the charges, and (c) better payment to these leaders as pastors. Rev. Booth made a very interest the discussion of pastors and better salary. The Council was a very timely one; every one present was very much pleased and thought it very helpful as it imparted new zeal and inspiration to him. The encouraging marks at intervals, the instructive counsels, the experience of his work on the district, the sympathy shown in every phase by the district superintendent inculcated a spirit of loyalty in every pastor present for the district, and each parted amicably with one great purpose: "To make a success and to let the Nashville District maintain its prestige." NO GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP It Would Mean Political Central and Loss of Efficiency-Declares That Crisis Confronts Country in Account of Transportation Situation-Lowest Freight Rates to Be Feud in United States. Washington, May 14.—That the United States is face to face with a serious crisis in its commercial affairs, due to the conditions by which its transportation system is confronted, was the opinion expressed by W. M. Acworth, England's leading authority on railways, before the Newlands joint committee on laterate commerce at a special session held here to enable the committee to hear his views before his departure for London this week. Two steps are necessary, according to Mr. Acworth, to avert this crisis and to solve the threatening railroad problem confronting the country. The first is to allow the railroads to charge freight rates sufficient to meet the great advance in operating expenses which is taking place and to enable them to command the credit necessary to provide the extensions and improvements needed to meet the growing demands of business. The second is to do away with the multiple and conflicting systems of regulation that now hamper railway operation and to provide one centralized regulatory agency with such local subdivisions as may be necessary. Higher Rates a Public Necessity. Mr. Ackworth's views on the transportation situation in the United States were expressed in answer to questions by members of the committee, who asked him to apply his knowledge of railway conditions throughout the world and of the experience of other countries with government ownership to the present problem before the United States. "The fundamental factor in the situation is very simple," said Mr. Ackworth. "It lies in the fact that you cannot get three-quarters of a cent's worth of work done for less than three-quarters of a cent, no matter whether the agency performing it is a government or private enterprise. Freight rates must advance when the cost of performing the service advances as it is doing at present, just as the price of bread or meat or any other commodity increases with increased cost of production." In answer to a question Mr. Aeworth said that he thought American freight rates had been at much too low a level for several years past, that they had reached this low point during the period of cutthroat competition among the roads and had since been held there by regulating bodies. Unless relief were afforded to the carriers very prompt, he said, the result would be a tremendous loss to the people of the whole country through insufficiency of transportation facilities Weakness of Government Ownership. On the subject of government ownership of railways Mr. Aeworth said: "It is impossible to obtain satisfactory results on government railways in a democratic state unless the management is cut loose from direct political control. Neither Australia nor any other country with a democratic constitution—perhaps an exception ought to be made of Switzerland—has succeeded in maintaining a permanent severance." In France, in Belgium, in Italy, parliamentary interference never has been abandoned for a moment. The facts show that government interference has meant running the railways not for the benefit of the people at large, to but to satisfy local and sectional and even personal interesta. Prussia, Mr. Acworth said, was the best example of an efficient government railway system, and be pointed out that military considerations were treated as of paramount importance in the Prussian railway system. While American freight rates had been reduced nearly 40 per cent in thirty years, rates in Prussia were nearly as high as at the beginning of the period. While the charge for moving a ton of freight one mile in the United States was a trifle over three-quarters of a cent, the rate in Prussia was 141 cents. As illustrating the difference in rates between government and private roads Mr. Acworth compared the railways of New South Wales, Australia, with those of Texas. While the amount of traffic to each mile of line was about the same in both cases, he pointed out, the Texas railways performed for the public four times as much service as the government owned roads of New South Wales. The charge in Texas for hauling a ton of freight one mile was less than 1 cent, while in the Australian state it was well over 2 cents. "American railways lead the world," said Mr. Acworth. "Nowadays when men in any other part of the world want to know how to run a railway they come to the United States and study your railways here. The American railways are entirely the result of private enterprise, and I think they go a long way toward proving the case against government ownership."

THE appearance of the National Jubilee Melodies a new song book containing all the old Jubilee and plantation songs set to music, is creating the widest kind of comment in every section of the United States. This is attested to by hundred of letters that have been received since the song book appeared and since it was successfully used throughout the session of the great National Baptist Convention which just closed its meeting. A sample of what the people say will be of interest. "I have examined the National Jubilee Melodies and found some old treasures that I would not like to part with, a fragment of the tunes and verses that have been carried in my brain, a forty year ago, but this is the first time I have ever seen them in print or grammatically speaking that one thinks he in the book and but grim evidence of its originality. We would not have them otherwise, as this would rob the work of its identity, and it my desire to set a work as near as possible spoken in the peculiar manner of the old time ante-bellum men and women that lied the foundation for our race on which we are building beautifully. I think that their peculiar style should be preserved and danced down to posterity."

Not praise which is fulsome and exaggerated, but praise which is given in kindness and which is merited, or deserved. Many of us, if not the greater number of us, are susceptible to flattery, which is another name for fulsome praise. To the sincere man, or woman, however, flattery is distasteful, for it does not ring true; it has the resonance of the tinkling cymbals of sounding brass, hollow and insincere; it neither satisfies nor gratifies. Only the little soul is stirred by flattery. On the other hand, a work of kindly praise, spoken en becomingly and at the right time, is as incense to the soul. It exalts and uplifts the spirit to immeasurable heights. It cheers and heartens the recipient, encouraging him and confirming him in his good intentions. It stimulates him to kinder and braver deeds and to nobler purposes. How often we ind cursivese hesitating between duty and inclination. At such a time a word of praise, gently spoken, opens the way before us and helps us to make the right decision. Oh, the power there is in the proper word, spoken in time! Who can measure its reach, who can describe the bounds of its influence? Praise, bestowed in kindness and sincerity, gives joy both to the given and to him who receives it. By praise, well meant and as well deserved, do we bind our friends to us by ties strong and unbreakable. Praise stimulates love and loyalty. Praise generates ardor and inspir zeal to return kindness for kindness. Praise is one of the lubricants known to the wise, which makes the machinery of life run smoothly and without creaking. Praise solves many a hard problem of life. Praise is a leev of tremendous potentiality. By praise we surmount many a formi dable obstacle. In many things of life we refuse to be driven, but how easy it is to persuade us by a gentle word, kindly and fittily spoken. How the spirit expands under praise! How the kindly word of commendation makes the heart to glow! How our burdens fall from us and become as nothing under the gentle ministrations of praise! How we are strengthened in our purpose to do good by a quiet, timely word of approval! And yet, knowing as we do the power of the kindly word, how strange it is that it is so seldom spoken, so often withheld. It is as though the language of praise were a foreign tongue to us, which we are unable to speak. How easy we find it to condemn, and how difficult to praise. How reluctant we are to give voice to the better impulse of our hearts, to reveal to those around us, even those whom we love, our kindly and loving thoughts of them. Indeed, it requires rare wisdom and discernment to utter the word of praise which is both fitting and timely, and perhaps it is because most of us lack that wisdom that more praise is not spoken. It may be, too, that we lack the courage, for many of us are strangely different in these matters of the emotions. But let us all cultivate the habit of kindly thought and kindly speech. Let us learn to speak the word in season. Without descending to flatten, which is unacceptable, let us learn to give praise where and when praise is due. Thus will we add immeasurably to the world's joy and in so doing increase our own beyond the telling. REVERENCE IN GIRLS The modern girl fails all too much to realize the truth that nothing detracts so much from a woman's charm in a man's eyes as lack of reverence. No matter how uncoach a man may be himself; how careless of the niceties and amenities of life; how indifferent he may be to the deeper spiritualities of living, he looks to a woman to be different—instinctively associates her with the things that are finer than are in his nature. There is nothing that so surely appeals to a man, that reaches him so surely, that fulfills his ideal of woman so truly, as the spiritual loveliness about a young woman who regards with respect the things of right intent; who bows her head in prayer with the ease of long habit; who speaks with deference of older folks, of those in authority, of family ties and of sacred literature and temples. The girl who scoffs at these things because she hears men do it may be as intelligent as Minerva and as beautiful as the Venus de Milo, but she violates the deep instinctive demand a man makes of his ideal woman. And she is the greatest sufferer, for she withholds herself from kinship with the eternal oneness of life. And from the very men whom she thinks will be attracted by her lack of reverence she gets only the verdict of: "What a pity." YESTERDAY AND TODAY. State-wide prohibition, the result of education and the development of industrial policies, requiring abstemious habits, suggests the contrast between Tennessee towns of today and those of thirty years ago, when saloons were in full swing and when most towns believed they could not get along without them. The Fourth of July was a great event for saloons in the early days. On that holiday they were crowded all day, and many people developed good sized drunks before night. Getting gloriously inxoticated was some men's idea of a big celebration and a good time. Every Saturday night there were those in every town who zigzagged and shouted their way home with more liquid hilarity under their belts than they could comfortably carry. It has been a long time since wild, maudlin Saturday nights have been seen in Tennessee towns. The towns have been growing steadily more sober until the legalized liquor traffic has been banished from the state. Any man who, ty dark or lawless tricks, corners food or other needed commodities in times of great national stress, thus robbing the lips of little children and others of needed food and their backs of needed garments, to the end that he may fatten his pocketbook, is just as much a traitor as one who tears down the flag. In the good old days a butcher would throw in a pound or two of liver for good weight in a purchase. Now they charge you more for liver than they used to for choice steak and when you call up for pork liver they generally deliver that of a beef. The master designer was surely a great hand for the out of doors—he made so much of it. In fact, with the exception of a few caverns in the earth, where blind fish live, he made no indoors at all. Moral courage is what enables a man to put on a straw hat without looking at the calendar whenever straw hat weather arrives. A few of us have it. The same girls who are wearing 'em now would have batted you in the eye if you had referred to part of their attire a few years ago as a sport skirt. After the war tax becomes operative, the heavy smoker who knows it hurts him will continue to sacrifice himself for the good of his country. That war tax on baseball tickets will have to hurry if it expects to get much out of some of the minor leagues. A dollar is harder to get than to spend or lend. The same is true of a billion, and even more so of two billions. Feeling in need of another "There, there!" Spain has again protested to Germany against the submarining of her merchant vessels. With hook and line and rod, visit the river as often as you can and thus tie a little knot in the meat prices. Many of us have already practiced economy until we have to step twice to make a shadow. All you have to do now, aside from a little hoeing, is to watch for it to come up. This is a nation of free and independent people, of whom the most independent is undoubtedly the coah man. Steady there, colonel! Remember the country is at war, and he is the commander of our army and navy. Regardless of whether the Heng lish call 'im 'Alg, it must be' admitted that he is hard boiled. Reduced to terms of money, the rain is estimated to have been of the million-dollar variety. Echoes from the past "Wouldn't you like some more of the mashed potatoes?"

Forty-nine Years of Hampton Institute. (Journal and Guide) Norfolk, Va., May 21, 1917. The forty-ninth annual report of the principal of the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, Dr. H. B. Frizzell, principal, has just reached The Journal and Guide. The announcement is made by the principal that next year, 1918, the school will reach its fifteenth year of existence, and that the event will be properly commemorated. It will also mark the twenty-fifth year as principal of service of Dr. Frizzell, General Armstrong having served twenty-five years as founder and principal of the school. The two records make an unexamined one of fifty years of service and usefulness for Afro-American uplift which can never be adequately estimated or appreciated. Then, too, if there had been no Hampton and General Armstrong there may have been no Tuskegee and Booker T. Washington and without the assistance of Afro-American people would be poor indeed in the good and necessary work which they have accomplished and for which we are all grateful. For the information and inspiration of the readers of The Journal and Guide let us make a brief summary of the work of the Hampton Institute. The principal says that it is the policy of the Institute not to give its diploma to any boy or girl who has been taught the subject and ability to practice some vocation. The enrollment of the year was 934. When the four instead of the three year course has been finally established the school will need a student body of 1,200 students. The insistent demand for more and better teachers, as set forth by Mr. Arthur D. Wright, State Agent for Rural Schools in Virginia, is used as argument to increase the efficiency of the Institute's work in this important matter. Of the 1336 applicants for teachers' courses in the year 2004, says only 84 were accepted, the failure of the 65 per cent. being due to faculty preparation. The Robert C. Ogden Auditorium, the foundation of which was laid at the last anniversary, will be the central building, the gathering point of many people from all sections of the country, and the theatre of many gatherings of various kinds connected to the work of 10,000 Pilgrims now visiting Hampton annually. The building will accommodate some 2,400 persons and cost some $200,000. There are also several other large buildings in course of construction. Great emphasis is laid on the agricultural work and needs of the institute. It is purposeed to provide 2000 acres of land, tenement Farm, which they adjoin, and which are needed for extension of the work. The total number of students in the trade school is 262. The average cost per student receiving training in the Trade School is $78.81; the students' earnings amounting to $24.847.3 for the year. The requirement of a higher academic standing to enrol in the Trade School requires a smaller number falling out during their course. There are 348 girls in the Institute, and, says the report, "the girl's industries are each year becoming more distinctively educative and more closely connected with the academic and other departments of the institution, the Academy, Hamilton for form, the fact that the students have so many chances to learn to do by doing." The plan of bringing a number of the leading colored ministers of Virginia to preach to the students was carried out successfully last summer, and the Associate Chaplain in turn preached in a number of the colored churches of the State. The Summer ministers brought together a company of strong men." The various extension work departments of the Institute have been very successful during the past year. The physical condition of the students is excellent, and boast is justly made that "Hampton's football eleven has won the championship for the Negro schools in the North Atlantic section and lime in the South Atlantic section." The school's victories at football and basketball have created a new enthusiasm for their alma mater among its own graduates, and respect from other institutions which perhaps no other successes could bring. The clean living and regular habits of Hampton students are largely responsible for their triumphs." And, for a surety, they will, by the same token, lead to success in other occupations of life than athletics, which is largely regarded as a pastime, but is, as a matter of fact, a very important and practical foundation education. The Summer School had 458, many teachers having been refused admission because of lack of room. We are all glad that General Arm- strong founded Hampton Institute, and lived long enough to see his great faith justified in the success of his work; and we are all glad than Dr. Frissell was chosen, twenty-five years ago, to continue the good work established by General Arm- strong, and to carry it forward to its fifteenth anniversary, "full of years and with its honors thick upon it."

Is he never going to emerge from the shadow of his bondage? Perhaps the problem is being solved by "a power not of ourselves," by the deep purpose of nature and the slow process of evolution. The word problem is not good. There are social problems, such as a labor, race or religious problem such things are conditions to be lived through, instead of puzzles to be worked out. And perhaps the Negro wants most of all to be let alone. He does not want to be studied as a case, nor patronized, nor helped. All he wants is a square deal, equal opportunity, and his just deserts. An experiment is being tried in New York, consisting of a company of Negro actors who attempt a serious dramatic performance of plays written especially for them and supposed to be peculiarly adapted to their genius. If a highly cultured and entirely unprejudiced foreigner were to look for the most interesting theater in the city he would find it here. For her are real human beings trying to express themselves and not to depict borrowed emotions. It is the best kind of art. Art consists in the forthputting of one's self. It means doing, with that freedom and naturalness that come only from genius and long practice, the thing I can do better than anybody else. These Negroes play Negro plays. They are revealing the soul of a people. They are not propagandizing. They do not demand, argue or protest. They are real artists. No artist has BEE HIVE HOTEL EL DALE HOTEL DALE CAPE MAY. N. J.

There are certain qualities of spirit, certain shades of passion and of conscience, which the Negro can portray better than any other race. There is a pathos, a tenderness, an edge of sympathy, a beauty of loyalty, and a genuineness of simplicity wherein the African excels. I think the Negro is by nature the race best suited to Christianity. The Negro has none of that offensive and hard pride that stains the Caucasian. He is the exact opposite of the Prussian In the great democracy of art, where the prejudices of race or speech disappear, and where "each shall paint the thing as he sees it for the God of things as they are," the Negro is welcome. I was strangely moved by this performance. I felt as if I were witnessing for the most significant effort at selfexpression I had seen for a long time, anywhere.

I am more powerful than the combined armies of the wolrd. I have destroyed more men than all the wars of nations. all the wars of nations. I am more deadly than bullets, and I am most wrecked more homes than the mightiest of men. I steal, in the United States, alone over $300,000,000 each year. I snare no one, and I find my victims among the rich and poor alike, the young, the old, the strong and the weak. Widows and orphans know me. I loom up to such proportions that I cast my shadow over every field of labor, from the turning of the grindstone to the moving of every railroad train. I massacre thousands upon thousands of wage earners every year. I am relentless. I am everywhere—in the house, on the street, in the factory, at railroad crossings, on old on the sea. I bring sickness, degradation and death, and yet few seek to avoid me. I destroy, crush and maim; I give nothing, but take all. I am your worst enemy. Answer—"I am carelessness."—Toledo Blade. A. S.

CONFERENCE TAKES UP QUESTION OF WAR PROHIBITION. Reported by the Associated Press New York, May 21.—A Conference on Prohibition during the war was held here today between a committee of sixty, representing the Council of National Defense and representative of the United States Brewer's Association. The brewers reminded members of the Council that the brewers had placed themselves unreservedly at the president's service and added: "They are prepared to make any sacrifice for the country's sake that compulsory authority after investigation may demand. They insist that any attempt to force the administration into radical action without due inquiry and consideration in order to exploit a favorite theory is not only michievously but decidedly unpatriotic." The theory alluded to, the brewers said, was that the brewing industry was using up a large proportion of the nation's cereals. In presenting their statement the brewers said they were "well aware that the committee of sixty is a prohibition body, sedulously seeking to bring about the adoption of that sys- ten as a war measure despite the fact that, as its letters show, it is not in possession of complete information on the subject." LITTLE FOODSTUFF USED. The brewers told the committee their actual consumption of foodstuffs last year was less than 46,000,000 bushels of grain. They added that based upon the government's estimate of a 1917 production of 50,000,000 barrels of beer proposed federal liquor taxes would yield more than $137,500,000. The statementpointed out that the brewers' cooked grain that is turned over for feeding of cattle, stimulates the flow of milk. "It would be reasonable to suppose," the statement says, "that one result which would follow the stoppage of brewing would be an increase in the price of milk in many cities." It points out further that the European nations at war serve rations of beer or light wines to their troops "Showing that they regard the light alcohol in some form as a necessity." "There are evidences," the statement concludes, "that there is much corn still held on the farms in this country because of the difficulty in transporting it to market. It must be plain from this and other circumstances that the chief problem in regrad to the food supply relates to transportation and the prevention of speculation." Progress And the Negro Detroit Free Press, May 22—It takes years for great movements to produce visible results. In the South a gregarious, pleasure-loving, improvident race has seemed to be but slightly affected by the economic and industrial changes of the time. The Negro has been the unskilled laborer, the poor tenant farmer, raising his bale or two of cotton and turning it over to the local buyer in liquidation of his debt for the year's living expenses. Tuskegee, Calhoun and Hampton are producing a class trained in trades, efficiency and initiative, whose influence is a leaven slowly permeating the mass for industrial uplife and awakening in the Negro a sense of responsibility, the labor shortage has been an advantage to him. Seven thousand Negroes applied to the Federal Department of Labor last year in regard to opportunities for employment; testimony to the spread of industrial education. Miss Kate M. Shelton Answers Call. Sad indeed were the funeral services held over the remains of Miss Kate M. Shelton at the home of her parents on the White Creeks Pike. For a long number of years Miss Shelton was foreman of the Stenographic department of the National Baptist Publishing Board on 2nd Ave. N. Hers was a truly lovely and Christian spirit, and those who worked with her so long were very sad when the news of her death reached them. The funeral services were attended by Rev. W. S. E. Stelling, pastor of the First Baptist Church, E. Nashville Dr. W. M. Haynes, pastor of the Spruce Street Baptist Church, Rev. S. H. Jones, pastor of the Sanctified Church and Rev. H. A. Boyd Assistant Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board. Revs Ellington, Haynes and Boyd spoke very feelingly of the noble life of the deceased. Every one who knew Miss Shelton loved her.

He stated that Dr. Boyd had great confidence in her and that she was trusted by him implicit. Fourteen employees of the Publishing Board were present to pay their respects to this their late fellow worker. Rest 'Neath the pretty green sod The flowers will grow where you're sleeping.

The Maroons winning by a narrow margin, score being 4 to 3 in favor of the Maroons. The Nationals had the Maroons beat up to the sixth inning when a wild throw by Eilid the Nationals big third sacker. The feature of the game was pitching of Blair for the Maroons and Webster for the Nationals. The latter striking out ten batters. Webster of the Nationals, better known as shiny baby said he was going to win Sunday or make Mr. Blair throw his arm off, so Mr. Blair threw his arm up in the grand stand in the sixth inning. Neal Boyd, better known as woog, sure did sting the pill Sunday, getting four hits in as many times up. Williams of Nationals is crying to get to those Maroons he says he is going to make them out eat of his hand. Captain Street said if he can get his other hurriers in condition, they are going to make it hot for those other teams. Little George Douglass, better known as hopscary has not pitched a game yet but says when he gets in condition he is going to strut for the boys. Vaughn the National's big catcher is rapidly rounding into form, the big boy is crying for them to run he says he will pay 'em off when they get there. The National's thousand dollar infield works like a clock, from Ellis to Street to Hurt or from Street to Shaffer to Hurt. Charlton, better known as Johnnie red, says, if the boys follow him he will take them through. The kid sure is stinging the pill. Johnnie Sublett, the deer foot of the Nationals, after a long lay off says he believes he can rap the old pill out. * * * The Maroons and Nationals played an exciting game of base ball at Greenwood Park last Sunday which he hard hitting and never quitting Maroons game out victorious with the close score of 4 to 3. Mr. Ellison has a good bunch but when it comes to base ball old Gray and Taylor with their foxy work and the good guilding of old man Whitsitt, it is just something awful to stop those Maroons. Such players as smiling son Patton the doorkeeper and Mr. W. Patton who takes care of the keystone sack with kid Patton and the old man to guide them are simply something hot. The fans are cheering for the second sack handled himself Mr. McGraw has a nice bunch of ball tossers and it seems that he is in the game to fight to the end. He has pulled feathers from the National flock and expects to snatch a double bill form the champion Sox Sunday and if it was not for those terrible Maroons he could see his way to pennantville clear. But when it comes to this pennant question it seems that the team that beats the Maroons will win the flag. Mr. Ellison hasn't got any credit for beating the B. H. Swift yet, as he said he would not get any. He said he intended to let the Maroons win a game, but they bragg so much he changed his mind and now he is so bad that every time he meets the team Now won't that he fun for the fans to see such a team as the Maroons go down six times before the hard hitting good pitching high throwing, fast running Nationals. It seems as if the Maroons pitching staff is the strongest in the League with lefty Roberts, Hayes, Battle and Blair, with his all-round kid Christmant with the bat or in the outfield or infield in the box or catching the Maroons have found one of the greatest young ball play- ers that Tennessee has probed. In right field with Mr. Coney and in left field with the sleet footed Mr. Britten and in center field with this fast kid Christmand and with old heads on their post on the ground at their rest the grand stand and is a hard proposition for Messrs. Miller, Garrett and Ellison to have to contend with on their road to pennantville. It was learned that Mr. President was heard teaching Messrs. Miller, Garrett and Ellison the old familiar phrase, "Its a long, long way to Tip-erary. --- What became of Mr. Ellison's thousand dollar infall last Sunday? I don't know, do you? No, well if you don't know and I don't know who in the world does know. Why just ask Mr. Mooney, he may be able to explain. The Maroons went out to Greenwood Park last Sunday with blood in their eyes and a determination to allot the land. Not locals in big league style and as the hillman Blair walked to the mound, Harve Weakley shouted, come here Blair just one minute, with tears in his eyes Tom Wilson exclaimed, let him alone Harve, he told him just what you are going to tell him and Blair said, boys don't be afraid, I will win this game or throw my arm off, he did not throw his arm of his body out made him throw his arm out of place and to win the game the old pilot, Whitsett called from the dog-house another six-foot hillman known as Shadow and he came in the game cold but was warm enough to hold the Nationals at bay and they went down to the count of 4 to 3. And since they all are going down come out to Greenwood Sunday and see the Black Sox go down twice that bunch of kids with all respect to odd ball players, give me the young because they are more active and will be led. Solomon the Swift's great south-paw that has never lost a game will fall off the hill Sunday in the first game and will be assisted by Sampson, the iron man and Washington and Sherman, two more south-paws that McGraw has signed. Come out and see them trim the Sox. THE NASHVILLE ATHLETICS. The Nashville Athletics made their annual debut Tuesday, and showed their old time form. Williams who held the Indians was on the firing line and not a runner reached third base, his speed was terrific, his control was perfect and 17 men went back to the bench by the way of the strike out route. Nesbitt, on first play, a great game with the hit of the Athletics in pinches the day. The Athletics will play their second game Saturday at Hadley Park, admission free. Patton the former star of Fisk will make his debut. r h e Athletics 0 0 0 0 1 3 0 0 4 8 0 Simile 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 Batteries—Athletics, Williams and Similee, Johnson and Wingo A rousing meeting was held at the residence of Manager Whittaker's. All members of the old machine were present. It resembled the old time spirit when the team made the only dash and won the 1913 pennant. Encouraging words were spoken by all team members and the port to the team. Admitting we have lost some of our good players, but Doctor McCrow will arrive in the city soon to take his old stand behind the bat, while Downs will report the latter part of this month. Foster will arrive from Franklin, Wingo, the husky third sacker from West Baden is in the city. Patton is here to meet us and our line up will be complete and a royal time is assured the fans. Evans will be in left, Mayberry will try to come back in right, Trimble, Dixon, Lee and Rixey are here. Don't fail to see the old machine in harness. Harris writes he will be in the city to join his team. The Athletics will play throughout Ohio and Michigan. Manager Whittaker will carry the team to Cleveland the 17th of June to be gone all the summer to see them in action will be a treat. Will meet the famous Green's Nebraska Indians at the Athletic Park June 14 and 15, see them in action. A treat for our city. NEGROES GOING NORTM turn to tell sad stories which Southern papers print as leading articles with large headlines. It is better that there should be no mass movement. Each man should study the situation for himself. When the worst is said as to political and social conditions as related to the Southern Negro, it remains true that he is at home and acclimated to the Southern States; he is afforded an opportunity to acquire a home, and is given a place in the community and in the field of economics. In the North he must make a place for himself and that is not always easy. Young men can move easily but men with families should study conditions carefully be fore they decide to migrate. —The foundation.

Napier Who Has Toured South Visits Educational Institutions. Hegira Alarming Says Hon. J. C. Napier Who Has Toured South Visits Educational Institutions. Mr. J. C. Napier returned to this city after an absence of one week. During thistime he visited several cities, schools and colleges in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina where he made addresses to citizens, farmers and students. He reports that the hegira of our people is going on at an alarming extent; alarming because it is rapidly taking from the South its most reliable element of labor at a time when it can easily be spared. With a dry spell upon us almost reaching the stage of a serious drouth, with a scarcity of food never equaled before, with our own and the armies of our allies depending largely upon us for food and every other kind of weapon of our war to or for treasury our condition will be a year hence. These conditions intensify the seriousness of the situation in which this constant emigration of labor from the South to the North is bringing upon us. One of the most serious cases that may be mentioned is that of the owner of a large plantation in Georgia some fifteen miles from Atlanta. HON. J. C. NAPIER. One day not long ago he went to his place where he had expected to find everything moving along smoothly, as usual for this time of year when, to his surprise, he found only one plow going and that was operated by a lone colored woman driving a mule. The other thirty-seven mules were in the barn, the plow all stopped and the workmen gon to other fields or labor. This is perhaps a case of more gravity than we generally come across, but it seves to show the extent to which men will go to better their condition when they are poorly paid, poorly housed, poorly protected, poorly furnished with educational advantages and jim crowed on every hand. When these conditions obtain the employee brought of the interest or welfare of the Rover as such course may be it is but human nature to flee from oppression, curety and injustice. The southland is the God-given, the native home of Lae Negro; he knows no other and he wants no other. A change of conditions will not only cause those of us who are left to remain at home but it will also cause a return of those who have sought homes elsewhere. Of all the places visited by Mr. Napier while away he was most pleased with Rust College and Holly Springs Mississippi. Upon his arrival at this place he was fortunate enough to find a home at the residence of professor and Mrs. E. H. McKissack. This of course meant an entre into all that is best and most desirable in this prosperous and beautiful town. They and their many friends made his stay most delightful, pleasant and interesting. It would be a most difficult matter to find among our people more comfortable, more commodious and more beautiful homes than they have in Holly Springs. And then the privilege of enjoying the hospitality of these homes, to look in upon them, to place one's feet beneath the tables, to see the flowers and the green houses is indeed a joy forever. The campus of Rust College looks as if nature itself had chosen or manufactured the spot for the purpose of cultivating, refining and Christianizing the human race. A large expanse of green grass as smooth as a brussels carpet kept scrupulously clean with here and there a plot of ground devoted to the culture of roses and other flowers. The campus also offers a spot chosen for the establishment of God's Kingdom on earth. President George Evans and his core of instructors seem to have everything in as perfect running order as a piece of machinery. No hitch, no friction could be seen or heard anywhere. The grounds and drives are in perfect condition, kept so by Mr. Harrison, a colored man who takes great pride in his work. Miss Barbour is the matron at Elizabeth E. Rust building, a dormitory in the city, gracious, receptive strangers, makes the feel home and shows them through a building so clean, that the atmosphere in every nook and corner is as pure and healthful as that which passes through the tops of the great oaks that stair out on the campus.

Inspired by these environments, Mr. Napier delivered the annual address to the College Lyceum and to the Athenian Society, the literary societies of Rust College. He gave the young people some solid and wholesome advice. He said "Make yourselves constant habitues of the library, read much, be full men and women, think deeply, acquire wisdom and with all your getting, get understanding, write your thoughts and thus be ready men and women as Lord Bacon has advised." Mr. Napier declared that the south is our native home and that we should remain in, and make of it, the most beautiful part of the land. He predicted that upon a necessitation of a new world war growth will come to this section and urged the young people to remain at home and share in this increase in business, wealth and population which will make the south the "garden spot of the continent." Mr. Napier also delivered a strong charge to the graduates of the College, saying: "My charge to you is, build character after the model of the lowly Nazarene. Make friends with the people with whom you live and by whom you are surrounded, and once made, cling to them as with hooks of steel. Let reliability, promptness and thoroughness characterize your every undertaking. Be courteous patient and persevering. Let your life be one of honesty, charity, veracity, integrity and cheerfulness."
