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.

Washington, May 14—Taat the Unit- ed States is face te face with a serious crisis in its commercial affairs, due to ‘the conditions by which its traasporta- Hon system is confronted, was the opin. fon expressed by W, M. Acworth, Eng- Innd's leading authority en railways, before the Newlands jotat committee on interstate commerce at a special session held here te euable the com- mittee to hear hls views before his de- Parture for Losdon this week. Two Steps aro necessary, according to Mr. Acworth, to avert this crisis and to “solve the threatening railroad problem confronting the country. |The first 1s to allow the rallroads to charge freight rates suflicient to meet the great advance in operating ex- Penses which te taking place and to enable them to command the credit Recessary to provide the extensions ‘and {mprovemienta needed to meet the srowing demands of business, ‘The sec- ond {s to do away with the multiple and conflicting systems of regulation that now hamper railway operation and to provide one centralized regula- tory agency with such local subdivi- sions as may be necessary. Higher Rates a Publio Necessity. Mr. Acworth’s views on the transpor- tation situation tn the United States Were expressed in answer to questious 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 Unit- ed States, “the fundamentaal factor in the slt- uation is very simple,” sald Mr. Ac- worth. “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 {t ts a govern. ment or private enterprise. Freight rates must advance when the cost of performing the service advances as Its doing at present, Just as the price of bread or meat of any other com: modity increases with increased cost of production.” Tn answer to a question Mr. Ac. worth sald that he thought American freight rates had been at much too low 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 hy rexulating bodies. Unless re lief were afforded to the carriers very promptly, he said, the result would bo a tremendous loss to the people of the whole country through Insuflicien- cy of transportation facilities Weakness of Government Ownership. On the subject of government owner- ship of railways Mr. Aeworth said: “it ia impossible to obtain satisfac tory results on government railways in a democratic state unless the man agement is cut loose trom direct polit- eal control, Neither Australia nor any other country with democrat. Je 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 in- terference has meant running the rall- ae hot for the benefit of the people at large, but to satisfy local and soc- tlonal and even personal interesta, Prussia, Mr. Acworth sald, was the best example of an efflctent govern ment railway system, and he pointed out that military considerations were treated as of paramount importance in the Prussian railway system. ) While American freight rates had been re- duced 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 frelght one mile in the United States was a trife over three-quarters of a cent, tho rate in Prussia was 141 cents. As illustrating the difference in ratex between government and private roads Mr, Acworth compared the rallways of New South Wales, Australia, with those of Texas, While the amount of tramle to each mile of line was about the same in both cases, he pointed out, the Texas rallways performed for the publle 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 Aus. tralian state it was well over 2 cents, “American railways lead the world,” ‘sald Mr, Acworth. “Nowadays when men in any other part of the world want to know bow to run a railway they gfome to the United States and study your railways here ‘The Amer ean railways are entirely the result of private enterprise, and 1 think they 0 a long way toward proving the case ‘Against government ownership.” STAR PROGRAM FOR NEXT WEEK yy, MONDAY,.—“Mpsterp of the Double Croas.” ————_ 3: TUESDAY,—A Mutual 5 oe eee | WEDNESDAY —“The Perils of the Girl Re~ } yrters.” THURSDAY.—Mrs. 1 Vernon Castle in" Patria.” ] FRIDAY,—“The Unpardonable Sin.” | (A Tailings te Wot Peston) mn SATURDAY—“Raiiroad Raiders.” Thuis = 7 Aeterna tin eo Cat $ follow the Groud L892%: Star Theatre Atereeeeereeees ee ereereees es eeeereoosereresoeeeeeee So SE FE NOBLE M.

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.

The cupboard, Mrs. Welker was also in cupboard and gown, seated her desk and in a very business like way registered her prospective "pupils." This over, the pupils were seated in the charming living room supplied with paper, penel and a set of neatly typewritten questions preparatory to taking their entrance examinations. There were ten questions each, in geography, literature, arithmetic and art. Every questionist was a puzzle and much merriment and fun was caused by the questions an danswers. There were three prizes given. Mrs. Lawrence Lewis won the prize for geography, arithmetic and literature. A beautiful box of correspondence cards. Mrs. Lewis also tied with several others for the prize in art and in drawing straws to determine the lucky one Mrs. Lewis again won; but very graffely petted the prize, an exquisite silver rose vase to Mrs. W. A. Crosthwait, a guest. After examinations, a delirious four hourse, menu was served. At the dining room door a silver tray piled high with dut flowers—no two alike—was presented for earl one to select her favorite flower, after which she found her place at the table by matching the flower in hand with the one at her plate. This was very unique and pleasing. The last prize, the flowers forming the centerpiece of the beautifully decorated table, was awarded Mrs. Frank Smith for giving the most beautiful toast.

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.

QUINADE stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, thereby causing a healthy growth. QUINADE was invented by a New York chemist, and is made under the personal supervision of a registered pharmacist of over 25 years experience; this is a guarantee that QUINADE is as near pharmaceutically correct as can be. The ingredients are selected with great care, and polishing extracts this high class preparation unless it is of the highest purity. Goeb's QUINAOASO, the best shampoo, is an excellent add to QUINADE in keeping the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It should be used about every two weeks. Both articles are sold by druggists and dealers at 25c each or will be sent direct by Beeby Drug Co., 79 K. 189th St., New York City, on receipt of price.

Another pleasant treat of the evening ‘was the contralto solos of Miss Marea Coombs, Miss Coombs displayed a voice of rare sweetness and harmoni- ous toning. Her rendition of the part “And it was about the sixth Hour" was unusually good, the perfectly har- monious ensemble of the choir mak- ing this the most appealing part of the program. Mr. T. C.

CONFERENCE TAKES UP QUES TION 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 Asso- ciation, The brewers reminded mem- bers 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 competent authority after investiga- tion may demand. They insist that any attempt to force the administra. tion into radical action without due inquiry and consideration in order to exploit a favorite theory is not only michievously but decidedly unpatrio- tie.” ‘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 “weil aware that the committee of sixty is a pro hibition body, sedulously seeking to bring about the adoption of that sys tem 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 bas- ed upon the government's estimate of a 1917 production of 50,000,000 barrels of beer proposed federal liquor taxes would yield more than $137,500,00, ‘The statementpointed out that the brewers’ cooked grain that is turned over for feeding of cattle, stimulates the Tow of milk “Tt would be reasonable to suppose,” the statement says, “that one result Wueh eeu’ Milne sootrare brewing would be an increase in the price of milk in many cities.” It points out further that the European ioe ae een ee fenpst wines ie nie vee Cane ing that they regard the light alcho- lic in some form as a necessity.” eat cater ner there te ann ‘corn still held on the farms in this ‘country because of the difficulty in transporting it to market.

Detroit Free Press, May 22—It takes years for great movements to produce visible results. In the South a gregar: fous, pleasure-oving, 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, ficiency and initiative, whose in: fluence is a leaven slowly permeating the mass for industrial uplife and awakening in the Negro a senso of his economic value, The labor short: age 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 ‘ot industrial éineatton. Miss Kate M. Shelton Answers Call, ‘Sad indeed were the funeral ser- vices 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 Steno- graphic department of the National Baptist Publishing Board on 2nd Ave. N, Hers was a truly lovely and Chris- tian spirit, and those Who worked with her 80 long were very sad when the news of her death reached them. ‘The funeral services were attend- ed by Rey.

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 Missis- ‘Sippi, “Alabama, Georgia and South ‘Carolina where he made addresses ‘to citizens, farmers and students. He ‘reports that the hegita of ott people fs going on at an alarming extent; ‘alarming because it fs rapidly taking from the South its most reliable ele ment of labot at a time when it can ‘casily be spared, With a dry spell upon “is almost reaching the stage of a Serious drouth, with a. scarcity’ of ood never eauated before, with our own and tho armies of our allies do ponding largely upon us for food and every other Kind of provender it is hard tto foresee or to foretell wha our condition will be a year hence, These conditions intensity the ser! usness of the situation in whieh this constant emigration of labor from the South to the North 1s bringing upon us. Ono of the most serious cases that may be mentioned is that of the owner of @ large plantation in. Geor Sia aothe. Afteen intlea’from Atlanta, 1% 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 thrity-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 serves to show tho extent to which men will go to better their condition when they are poorly paid, —noorly housed, poorly protected, poorly fur- niehed’ with educational advantages and jim crowed on every hand. When these conditions ontain the employe hhas no thought of the interest or wel- fare of the employer. Reprehensible ‘a5 euch course may be it is but human nature to flee from oppression, curel- ty and injustice. The southland 1s the God-given, the native home of tae Negro; he knows no other and he wants ‘no other. A change of condl- tions will not only cause those of us ‘Who are left to remain at home but it ‘will also cause a return of those who hhave sought homes elsewhere. Of all the places visited by Mr. Napier while away he was most pleas- ed 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 ali that is best and most desirable in this prosperous and beautiful town. They and their many friends made his stay ‘most delightful, pleasant and interest- ing. It would be a most difficult mat- ter to find among our people more comfortable, more commodious and ‘more beautiful homes than they have in Holly Springs. And then the privi |ese 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 js indeed a joy forever. | ‘The campus of Rust College looks \ns if nature itself had chosen or manu |factured the spot for the purpose of jcultivating, refining and Christianiz |ing 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 de voted to the culture of roses and othe rare flowers makes one feel that it i ‘a spot chosen for the establishmen of God's Kingdom on earth, Presi dent George Evans and his core o instructors seem to have everything as perfect running order as @ pied of machinery.

He gave the young people some solid and whole- some advice. He said “Make your selves constant habitues of the libra- ry, read much, be full men and women, think’ deeply,” acquire wisdom and with all your getting, get understand- ing, write your thoughts and thus be be ready men and women as Lord Bacon has advised.” Mr. Napier de- clared 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 the cessation of the present world war, a wave of presperity and material 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 Col lege, 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.
