NASHVILLE GLOBE.
VOLUME XII.
There will be quite a number of insulting occasions during these sessions to which the citizens of Nashville have been cordially invited. Especially is this true, says the secretary of the Congress, with regard to the general sessions and departmental meetings, but perhaps the biggest day of the Congress will be Sunday, June 17, when it is estimated that 5,000 people will form a Sunday School parade on the Public Square and with three brass bands and a number of companies of cadets. The event will be attended by the Tennessee National Guard, will march to Ryman Auditorium, where they will hear patriotic addresses, where they will be filled with religious fervor by the special speakers, and where the awards will be made to Front Line Sunday Schools, and where the Teacher Training Diplomas will be given.
During the entire week only twelve subjects will be discussed in the general sessions. The subjects cover a scope of work calculated to do a great good to the Sunday School Officers. By permission of the Congress officials the list of subjects were obtained and are as follows:
Another big affair of the Sunday School Congress next week will be the Metoka and Galeda demonstrations at which it is expected that not less than 600 enthusiastic workers will gather in the dining room of the Y. M. C. A. Building for their annual banquet, given under the auspices of the Metoka and Galeda Union of Nashville.
Saturday afternoon Greenwood Park will be the scene of much demonstrations. The entire afternoon will be given over to the National Boy Cadets, under the command of Commander-General, W. H. Crawford of Texas. Drills, inspiring addresses and good music will be the features of the evening.
On Sunday morning a special Sunday School Congress conductor will be sent to the Sunday Schools of Nashville, to conduct a modern Sunday School, and make a report of whatever they were able to do at the Auditorium Sunday afternoon. Judging from what is already being done, Nashville will face a busy week.

NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY—THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE.
Enthusiasm at the Sunday School Congress Unsurpassed Big Sunday Parade—Workers From All Sections Marching—Sunday School Brass Band—Boy Cadets.
There is held in store for the Sunday School Congress workers a veritable religious feast in the 11 o'clock sermon that is to be preached on Sunday. The minister who is to preach the sermon for the Congress this year is a man of the younger school, one young in thought but old in experience as a fervent gospel minister; old in the pastorate and a preacher of ability; and one calculated to stir up the thought and to give the religious fervor for the occasion.
MODEL SUNDAY SCHOOL AT CONGRESS.
Hundreds of well organized Sunday schools that have made enviable records for work accomplished could be improved if some representative of these different schools could spend one session at the Sunday School Congress in a Model Sunday School such as is conducted each year at the Sunday School Congress if they could see how the classes are taught, if they knew how the pupils were managed, if they could come in touch with the teaching forces, if they could hear the inspiring music rendered, if they only knew the amount of mentality that is employed by Sunday school experts in making the Model Sunday School an occasion for actual observation of students of the Sunday school work, they would come to Nashville and become a student or teacher in this Model Sunday School. The entire session is devoted to the helpful instructions and all of the talent that is available at the meetings is put to work.
SPECIAL SPEAKERS FOR THE CONGRESS.
Ontory will flow as never before at the Sunday School Congress in Nashville, Tenn., this year. From the opening day, June 13, until the closing, June 18, the workers in the Sunday School will be favored by hearing the best speakers on the Literary platform in the United States. The literary speakers are to appear during the following occasions: On Metoka and Galaedia night, which is Thursday, a special address is to be made for the benefit of the Metokas and Galaedas; on Boy Cadet night, which is Friday, eloquent utterances will be heard in the interest of the boy-man by tending to show what the boy is to our future church life; on Sunday at 11 o'clock a pupil orator that is to make the Negro Baptists immortal and for which it is noted, will be heard as never before. The minister who is to grace the rostrum on that morning for the Congress sermon will, it is said, redeem the reputation of the younger minister; while the Congress address to be delivered at 3 o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday is to be a masterly piece.
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS PARADE.
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONFERENCE
At 2:30 o'clock on Sunday afternoon,
June 17, the annual Sunday School

and Boy Cadet Movement. These bands have made a specially playing

"On, On, Metokas and Galedas" is the title of the Metoka and Galeda song that will be the watchword of these two orations. "Christian Soldiers Marching," in connection with the Sunday School Congress. The directors of these two orations promise to elevate the Metoka and Galeda class work to such a position that it will be sung throughout the civic arena as a force that will keep the people in the Sunday School, as a drawing card to the college boy and girl who hitherto attended the Sunday School attractive place. Special stress will be laid upon the use of the Metoka and Galdea Magazine. The paraphernalia of this magazine will be the arm-band, the cards, the magazine and the spirit of the classes will give the Metoka the opportunity to demonstrate what they are doing at home.

DEPARTMENTS OF THE CONGRESS
Every Phase of Sunday School Work Will Be Given Special Attention Through Departmental Meetings Each Afternoon.
Every worker in the Sunday School who attends the Sunday School Congress at Nashville, June 13-18, will find in addition to the general sessions, where all enjoy the papers and the work, a department of his or her special calling. If you are a superintendent at home, you will naturally be interested in the problems that will come before the superintendent in department. If you teach the Intermediate or Primary classes at your home, you will naturally want to spend your afternoons in this particular department. If you are advanced teachers, the natural tendency would be to come in touch with the advanced teachers from other schools. Whether you be engaged in the Cradle Roll, Home Department, Boy Cadet, Sunday School Missionary or any other Sunday School work, you will be given the opportunity to attend general sessions have adjourned for noon from 2:30 until 6:30 in the afternoon, there will be some departmental opportunities not only to gather inspiration, but to throw off that pent-up energy that will give you the opportunity to fill the year and where you yourself may demonstrate the many helpful things you have perhaps brought to your school. Give others the benefit of your experience and at the same time be benefited by the experience that will be offered by attending the departmental meetings.

There was a time when it was almost impossible to have the right kind of music in sufficient volume to do justice to the Sunday School Congress at a national movement. This problem, however, was solved when the Sunday School Congress movement succeeded in making permanent and especially well qualified as musicians to play practically every song that will be sung at the Congress. They have been for the past three years a part of the great force that created such favorable impression in the rendition of these sacred songs through their sessions in the mammoth street parade in the mammoth street parade on Sunday afternoon. Hear the Congress brass bands next week at the Sunday School Congress.
B. Y. P. U. DEPARTMENT AT. CONGRESS.
A longfelt want was supplied when it was announced that the B. Y. P. U. Societies would have a department in the coming Congress. B. Y. P. U. organizations throughout the United States who send representatives to the Nashville session of the Congress will have the advantage of all the instructions in the B. Y. P. U. work that can be given out by practical experts and B. Y. P. U. workers. Every department of the B. Y. P. U. will be carefully gone into. The Christian Culture Course, the Reading Course, the devotions, the literature, the missionary feature, in fact, B. Y. P. U.'s as they ought to be conducted will be demonstrated.
SOCIOCOLGICAL AND INDUSTRIAL
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
The newest department in the Congress work is that of the Sociological and Applied Industrial Education. While the theme has not been new the department this year under this head will be under the directorate of trained college professors who have made a practical study in this particular line of intellectual uplift. At the last session of the Congress in Vickburg the addresses that were delivered along the lines of sociology and the discussions on the subjects listed stirred the meeting beyond expectation. Addresses were made, subjects discussed and ideas brought out on sociology that were instructive from the very beginning and which helped materially every attendant at the meeting.
SINGING ORGANIZATIONS AT CONGRESS
A Chorus of 600 Voices to Furnish Music at the Congress. Texas Quartette and Shreveport Singing Club.
Supporting the regular musical feature of the Sunday School Congress will be several independent singing organizations. Notice has been given to the secretary of the Sunday School Congress that a Glee Club of about eighteen members from Shreveport, La., would grace the Congress with its presence this year, as it did last year at Vicksburg. Then there is to be a special quartet out of Texas, coming from Houston, that is making a speciality of Sunday School Congress work. In addition to this the Juvenile Congress Choir will make its initial appearance. Thus the singing this year will excel any attempt of former years.
TEXAS QUARTET COMING TO
NASHVILLE.
Another singing club has notified the Sunday School Congress Secretary that it was their purpose to attend the Sunday School Congress and to serve in every possible way at the Nashville meeting. Prof. G. W. Williams of Houston, Tex., with H. C. Hickey, T. H. Simpson and H. Y. McCowan compose the quartet. They declare this quartet has prepared itself to render service by singing the very best religious song—songs found in the books published by the National Baptist Publishing Board. In addition to the quartet there will be a club from Shreveport consisting of eighteen members and the Nashville organization made up of workers from the various Sunday schools here. This will be three singing organizations which will augment the chorus of two hundred voices, which chorus will be made up entirely of Nashville singers under leadership of Prof. Johnson, the Sunday School Congress chorus director from Muskogee, Okla., who reported at Nashville about fifteen days prior to the opening of the meeting, to begin the training of his chorus.
EXHIBITS OF SUNDAY SCHOOL LIT
FRATIATURE AND PARAPHENALIA
LI
Helps on Sunday School work of every description whether it be literature, models, maps, charts, banners, buttons, pins or anything along that line will be shown and demonstrated at the Sunday School Congress. A department known as the Department of Exhibits and Paraphernalia is conducted at each annual session. This year the entire National Baptist Publishing Board's plant, located at Second avenue, north, and Locust street, will be used for this department. An expert is paid to give time and attention to handing out information and to explaining and instructing as well as to encourage the use of the literature as well as the requisites for Sunday School work. Demonstrations just before each session and just at the close of each session are given in this particular department. While you are at the Congress study this department, come to see the many things you want to know about and that you have seen perhaps advertised for use in the Sunday School. Visit the department of Exhibits and Paraphernalia while at the Congress.
WHEN AND WHERE THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONGRESS HAS MET.
Twelve years ago in June the first session of the Sunday School Congress was held. When the announcement went forth that the movement had been launched for the benefit of the Sunday School forces and the B. Y, P. U, workers. It was halted with Joy and delight. Strong editorials by the leading denominational editors appeared in papers throughout the country. Secular journals declared it was beyond measure the proper time and that the meeting was calculated to do what no other had done. It would, in other words, be the little leaven in the loaf. So in June, 1906, the movement was launched at Nashville, Tenn. in 1007 it met in New Orleans, in 1908, in Jacksonville, Fla., in 1909, at Nashville, Tenn. in 1910, at Meridian, Misc., in 1912, Tuskegee, Ala., 1913, in Muskogee, Okla., 1914, in Baumont Tex., in 1915, Birmingham, Ala., in 1916, Vicksburg, Miss. This year in Nashville.
NUMBER 32
BOY CADETS AT THE CONGRESS.
BOY CADETS AT THE CONGRESS.
Commanding-General W. H. Crawford of the National A. F. Cadet Movement and his general staff have issued a general order for the Fourth Annual Encampment of the National A. F. Cadets to be held at Nashville, Tenn., in connection with the twelfth annual session of the Sunday School Congress, June 13-18. Representatives of the Boy Cadet movement in every section of the United States are expected to be in attendance. Some Sunday Schools will send an entire company. Perhaps several battalion bands will be in attendance. Boys in uniform will be seen each day and the spirited military discipline under religious influence will be Injected into them as never before. Nothing has proven so beneficial to the forward Sunday School movement as the Boy Cadet movement, which is a part of the Sunday School Congress. Each Sunday School may have as many companies as they feel able to support. A book of tactics with the bugle calls and other information can be obtained from the National Baptist Publishing Board. In fact, how to organize a company of Cadets is told in a very simple way in this book, which sells for ten cents.
CRADLE ROLL AND INFANT DEPARTMENT AT CONGRESS
"Where are the children and what are they doing?" is a problem that this department is taking up, taking the child as soon as it is given a name and keeping up with that child until they are able to turn it over to the primary department of the Sunday School. The work of the Cradle Roll and Infant Department, while new to some of the Baptist schools, has become so important that special superintendents of this work have been designated in many schools. At the Congress this year one competent, one well trained, assisted by those who have had actual experience will tell how to conduct the Cradle Roll and infant Department in the various schools. - Tennessee-American

“The Boy A. F, Cadet Movement ts
‘4 movement among Negroes, similar
to the Boy Scouts, among Whites. It
seeks to create a Wholesome, Moral
and Congenial Atmosphere around the
boy, by inculeating in its prineiple,
certain unique features, which appeal
to that interest universal among boys,
‘The Movement started in Austin
Texas 1910. In 191%, It attracted the
attention of Dr. R. H. Boyd, Sooretary
of the National Baptist Publishing
Board of this city, and throuzh his
efforts, it was attache! to the Sunday
School Congress, as one of Its regular
Depariments. Since that time the
‘Movement has spreaded practically t
every state in the Union.
Wherever the Cade! Movement ha
been established among Necro boys
it has lessenet idloness and erime
made the Negro Boy respectel ani
respectable, given him a hicher ide:
of life, and bettered his condition gen
Jerally by throwing around him at
| atmosphere condusive to the growth
of good citizenship.
In many large cities of the Sout}
actual co-operation exist between th
A. F, Cadet Department and the Juyer
fie Courts. Wherever this cooper:

mony of the oficers that this. depar
ment has done more to lescen crim

No one likes to be accused of In-
Aolence, which is a polite word for
laziness, To be called a Mar is the
offense unpardonable, and to be
charged with laziness is Itke unto it
Yet in a world in which there is
mueh work to be done the most
casual observer is able to discern
evidences of indolence on every hand.
Even the most conselentious of men
have thelr moments of indolence,
when the Impulse to shirk 4s trrests-
tible, Only a superman could go
through life without being lazy,
without procrastinating, on occasion,
Doubtless may conscientious work-
ers would not confess to lazi-
ness, oF shitking. For indolenee has
a way of disguising itself cunningly.
Indolence is subtle and insidious, Tt
worms its way crattily into the minds
of men and Whispers to them in
honeyed and sympathetic phrases, in
the language of cajolery, It per-
sviades them that they are making
themselves martyrs to toil; that it is
no sin to be a little less conscienttous,
but in reality isa duty they owe
themselves and those dependent upon
them; that « little shirking never
will be discovered anyway; that the
world will continue to swing In its
orbit, even though they are not so
exact in the performance of duty.
Indolence is wise, with the subtile
wisdom of the serpent in Eden, and
it knows when to strike. It never
strikes unless the {ron is hot. Thus
skillfully cajoled by the tempter, men
shirk unwelcome duties or postpone
them, With sympathy for themsetves
thus stirred, they dodge difficult or
Gisugreeabio tasks. With the voice
of consefence thus tulled into som-
nolence, they close their desks down
upon unfinished work, postponing to
another day, while they seek idle
pleasures, duties which call for some
egree of physical or mental exertion,
It Is not likely that they would con-
fess to indolence. Indeed, they would,
in all probability, be indignant if
‘Accused of shirking or of laziness, and |
would be able to Justify. themselves
—at least to their own Bee
And yet it is to be questioned wheth-
er indolence is not at the bottom of
hich ofthe shrking and procraatin|
ation in the world. ‘The most dite
ficult problem confronting the work-
er, whatever itis task may be, is to
keep himself pulling in the harness.
‘That is to say, it is a problem if the
worker is putting conscience into his
task. Many things conspire together
to make him lag in the traces. The
work of the world is done for the’
most part under whip and spur.
Many men love their work and are
spurred by that love and by aspira-
tion. Others, @ host of them, are
spnrred only by necessity, Many al-
lurements beckon the workers in all
the ranks of life, striving by their
arts to seduce the laborer and to lead
hhim into the ways of idleness and
ease. Wearlness, illness and physi-
cal strength which is inadequate
break down the barriers which many
men erect against the assaults of in-
dolence. And so, in one way and an-
other, and at one thme and another,
‘we are all more or less indolent or
we have our moments of indolence
‘When the powers of the mind and
body relax, when conscience yields,
when our weakness becomes supreme,
and when it is a pleasure not to do
‘something which ought to be done, or
when we are able to excuse ourselves
for neglecting to finish some task
which demands completion. Who
ean portray the delight of these lazy
Moments? True, the pleasure of
such moments is fleeting and ephe-
‘merial, but while it, lasts: t tg Like
no other enjoyment under the sun.
‘At is not well, however, to encourage
‘his form of indulgence, for the habit
it indolence, itke other evil habits
4s quick to fasten itrelt with visellke
_ sip, and once {t secures a hold it is
sie NADY SOS Stee natn
and safe method for the worker, if he
would defend himself against lazi-
ness, is to be zealous in all that he
does; to work in the harness so that
he feels the strain of it constantly;
to complete each day's task; to reso-
lutely refuse to surrender to inelina.
ton; to leuve nothing undone for the
morrow. For who knows whether
the morrow ever will come? Whe
Knows that a task left for the mor
Tow ever will be fnished? So live
today, therefore, that there need be
no thought of tomorrow.
THE COMMENCEMENT THEME,
Tas been suggeated by the secre-
tary of the interior that some atten-
Yon be paid in the commenceuient
‘oxercises of schools, colleges ann unt-
‘vorsities to the cause and purpose of
the war, The Secretary's <vord
comes a ttle late to produce
‘maximum results, if, in faet, the
word was neaded. Reports that have
‘come in so far from the firing tine of
graduation essays are calculated to
relieve worriment on that score. It
appears that, quite without the sug-
‘gestion of anybody, the young men
and young women of our edveational
Institutions have given themselves
unreservedly to the task of analysis
‘and of prognosis. If there be any-
‘thing at all in the proverb which
maintains the supertority of two
heads over one, the number of heads
—brown, pompadoured, curly and
uillet—that have devoted thelr best
thought Co the war theme at our var-
lous places of learning this spring
promises splendidly for results.
| ‘The idea of the secretary of the
interior“is, of course, a good one. Re-
gardless of the papers that may be
turned ont asa result of the study in
volved, there can be no question as
io the desirability of inducing ow
young folk, particularly our educat
ed young folk to think the war over

operate with the sweet girl and th

| TRADE SCHOOL WHY NOT?
|__ At the recent Hampton Commenee-
|ment, one of the girl students with
|the aid of a simple chemical outfit,
[tested quid and ball blueing. She
jgaowed tow spots of iron rust were
formed on clothes that had been im-
[properly rinsed and proceeded to re-
move the spots of iron rust by using
joxalic acid, She showed clearly that
‘an apron that had once been spoiled
by tron rust could be greatly im-
|proved with a little skill and work
Another bright chap deseribed the
|Hampton Institute fire prevention
Jexereises, and then charged a fire ex-
| tinguisher with sulphuric acid, biear-
bonate of soda and water. He said
in conclusion: “It pays every family
to have several fire extinguishers in
conventent places in the home. Bach
member should be taught how to
“charge and how to use the portable
fire extinguisher, which is very ef-
fective weapon in fighting fire.”
Here are two of the many practical
things that are taught to the students
at Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes,
Eyery year more than two hundred
graduates go out from these two
|Schools equipped with the knowledge
‘and skill necessary to make a begin-
| ning in the trades, Such men do not
| need to serve an apprenticeship but
|iare ready at ones to enter into their
|life work, ‘The rapid growth of the
[number of skilled workers in the
|trades in the South is due largely to
| the steady stream of recruits that are
(graduated every year from Hampton
[Tuskegee and other schools, ready to
work.
With the coming of so many people
to the north, education, especially in
the cities that have separate school
systems will have to undergo a radi-
cal change. The emphasis that has
|so long been placed on preparing
/students for college will need to be
|shifted so as to prepare boys and
|sirls for the trades.
‘The last census report shows 166,-
[374 mates engaged in building and
jhand trades, and 205,939 females
| who earn their living by cooking, On
‘the other hand there were only 17,-
427 clergymen and 22,441 female
[school teachers. Speaking in terms of
totals, 67,245 of the 5,192,585. col-
ored people engaged in gaintul oc-
“cupations are in the professions. This
|means that less than 2 per cent of all
|the people at work are doctors, law-
|Yers, teachers, preachers, ete.
|" ‘These figures ought to be tllumin.
‘ating to every thoughtful person, and
‘especially so to the parents, who have
children in the schools. It only two
per cent of the children enter the
professions, what of the other 98?
Are they getting the kind of training
in the public schools, that will make
‘them better able to make thelr way
lin the other walks of life? Every
‘parent cannot send his ehild to
Hampton or Tuskegee, but he can
make up his mind that he 1s not go-
ing to be satisfied with our public
school system in this city until some
provision is made for teaching the
same things here as there
No one would vote to curtail the
‘academic activities of our high
jtehool. But it is both sonsible and
sane to set up and popularize a mod-
| ern trade school as a part of it.

dreds of men and women have gone
from the halls of Roger Williams to
bless the race and help guide clvill
zation in her progress towards per-
fection. The name of the old school
is dear to our hearts, I say “our”

Jectual fountain that gave me & Uhrat

meant when ho said, “He that in-
‘creases knowledge, increases sorrow,”

Jed pride were destroyed, any sons
jana daughters whose admiration for
the old site made it well nigh sacred
to them, might have contributed
more liberally towards the maintain-
jence of the University on the new

[repetition of the same thing, that
happened to the old school. We are

lowing unheard of unwarranted pre-
cedent,

alienated, conveyed or devised to any
person of persons of African blood
or decent and that no person of
African blood or decent shall own or
‘acquire a title thereto In fee simple

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY JUNE 8, 1917.
Y, M. (. K SUNDAY
Mr. A. F, Williams, who hag been
in charge of the Coloral Y. M. ©. A.
at Newport News, Va, for the past
five yours, will be present at the
meeting ‘Sunday afternoon at four
O'ock. It will be recalled by the
many friends of the local Y. M. C.
A. that Mr. Williams was Secretary
of the local colored branch the Jast
year or two While here as a student
At Fisk University. It is expected
that Mr, Williams will take up a part
of the time at the Sunday afternoon
meeting telling us of the work which
he is doing in Newport News. He
1g returning from a trip to Muskogee,
Oklahoma, his former home, and. will
stop in Nashville for several days,
probably throughout the session of
‘the Sunday School Congress. It
‘should be a rare treat for the young
‘men of Nashville to hear Mr.” Wit
Jiams after five years’ experience in
association work. We hope that the

ful crisis that is now upon us. “This
is a crisis,” he stated, “in which the
Negro should fee] deeply concernet
becauso of its affects upon him, his
nation and the Christian nations of
the world.” It fs the hope of the As-
soctation when Rey. Mr, Herrod visits
Nasliville again, and should the Asso:
ciation be able to secure his services,
that several hundred young men will
avail themselves of the privilege to
hear him. It was through the kind

selections rendered by the choral 80-

‘tetts will be up to the standard in
levery respect. The Girls Glee Club
‘of the High School has reached such
[a standard of a perfection that the

they float from the throats of these

party went to the St. John Baptist
Cruch where Dr. C,H. Clark,

but as we only went over to see the
brethren and carry them a message
of cheer, not expecting anything, the
contribution was a pleasing surprise,
but in Keeping with the teaching of
the big hearted pastors of the dis-
trict, ‘Thursday at Fitth Ward Bap-

ed the speaker, whose sermon was a
masterpiece. ‘The tears an dshout-

it was difficult for any one to keep
‘their seat. Here a Itberal collection
‘was taken for the visitors, unsolfettet

sermon Rey. J. L, Harding compli

Last week the Post Adjutant Gen-
eral of the Uniform Rank, K, of P.,
yeeelved a letter from the War De-
partment coming from the Adjutant
General's office. This letter was in
reply to one that he had just written,
in which he made a strong appeal for
the Negroes to be given an. oppor-
tunity to serve the United States in
these perilous times, Both. letters
are given to the Nashville Globe for
information,
May 15, 1917.
Hon. Woodrow Wilson, Bresident,
Washington, D. ©,
Dear Sir
We feel, in simple justice to a
Joyal, patriotic citizenry, that some
provision should be made for the Ne-_
groes to enlist in the United States
Army. We mean in addition to the
four regular regiments already now
in the service.
While we are doing our hsare in
the Army of the Furrows, we feel
sure there are hundreds of thousands
who are smarting under the refusals
of being allowed to form regiments
and to help put up a noble defense
for this our Flag and our Country.
‘The United States Government can
Al afford to turn a deat ear to the
stalwart, brave men of the race, who
have done so much on every battle
field, not only in modern, but ancient
times. They have never known what
it was to retreat or to turn traitor.
‘The Secretary of War should Join In
with the Commander-in-Chiet of the
Army in seeing to it that these op-
portunities are given,
Yours ‘Truly,

Mr, Henry A. Boyd,

Dear Sir:
‘The Secretary of War directs me to
acknowledge the receipt of your let-
ter of the 15th instant, addressed to
the Prosident, in which you express
the hope that'some provision may be
made so that Negroes may enlist in
the United Sjates Army.
‘The Secretary of War also directs
me to advise you that he wholly
agrees with the statements in your
Ietter concerning the general ‘fitness
‘of the Negro for the military service
and his ability to render faithful and
efficient duty in time of war,
With regard to the number of reg:
iments of colored men in the Regular
Army, a matter to which you refer
in your letter, you are mo” doubt
aware that the matter is regulated
entirely by legislation and that: the
Department, is resirieted, under the
terms of existing law, in raising only
such organizations as Congress may
authorize,
Organizations of state militia are
controlled by the authorities of the
states in which they are raised and
the Var Department exercises. no
supervision. over the character of the
personnel of those organizations—
whether white or colored, ‘The only
militia under the direct control of
the Department is that of the District
of Columbia, ‘The First. Separate
Battalion of the District of Columbia
National Guard iga colored organiza-
tlon—both offigets and. mien,
It seems probable that in the op-
eration of the new Cunseription Law
ample provision will be made for
military service by Negroes through-
‘out the country and if you wish de-
Jinite information regarding the mat-
ter it is suggested that you corres:

Manager Stratton and his deer-footed Black Sox romped on the Greenwood diamond and defeated the Maroons 8 to 5. Both Stratton and Battle worked hard and were well supported by their teammates. Battle is a youngster that Manager Whitsitt has found and with a good catcher to train him he will be a star twirler in a short time. Manager Stratton has also gotten a young skid on, who has a good curves. 225 fans witnessed the game Sunday and cheered both teams as they pulled off their sensational plays.

winning 8 to 5. It looked at first like a pitchers battle between Stratton and Battle, but after Walter Patton who was playing short for the Maroons, had figured in several sensational plays he fell asleep, while three Soxs raced home, and sinched the game. Battle tightened up after the fourth inning, and allowed no more scoring, while all three allowed only two runs after the first inning.
A queer play bobbled up in the third inning, when with runner on base, Whitsey lifted a high fly to infield, which was dropped, and after a protest the empire declared the batter safe at first. But if we read the rules right, the batter was out. This same play was put in action a few days ago at Athletic Park, and after a lengthy consultation between the two empires, Gabby Street, the batter was called and his knees been doubled at second, the Vols would have lost the game. Mr. Blane Boy, viewed the game at Greenwood Park from the grand stand, and spoke very highly of both teams, but emphatically denounced the fly ball decision in the third inning. Rube Foster's American Giants, won a close game 1 to 0 from the Cuban Giants. Redding pitched great ball for the Giants, with Petway behind the bat. The Lincoln Giants, took to bitterter batting, and runned him from the mound, and won 7 to 2. Rufi formerly pitched for John McGraws Giants.
Jewels A. B. C's defeated the Nebrasa Indians some 6 to 4. Gatewood twirled for the A. B. C's, while Watkins worked for the Red Men.
Brandon of the Black Sox, now pitching for Taylor's A. B. C's, won from Frankfort 7 to 5, and allowed only five hits.
Allison of Nashville, has enlisted with the Union Giants, Chicago, and is doing receiving duty in great style.
If you want to be sure that you get what you order, just walk in a Cedar Street Cafe, and order a small steak. door-keeper Frye of the Black Sox is some lengthy guy. Sunday just after the game, this Mr. Frye fell down and was half way home. And we must say, that he is long in this world if he dies tomorrow.

Mr. H. T. McGavock is the mainstay of the famous Black Sox, when it comes to fielding and has been for the past five years. He is a daring base runner, circling the cushion like Ty Cobb and as a batter he is right there hitting the ball on the snout, just like Tris Speaker. It will be mighty hard for any team to defeat the Black Sox with such跑兵ers as McGavock, Stratton, Ware and Carpenter. This quartette is hitting above the three hundred mark.

Some class to the Hadley Park bowl. The bowl resembles an american league park.
Old Cy Young was driven from the trenches yesterday in the bowl the Athletics seige guns were too much for Young and he retired in favor of Shorty who pitched brilliant for a while his slants were soon seen flying to all corners of the bowl.
Did you hear the Athletics weeping willows softly calling you from the bowl of Cy Young.
The boys from the knob did well, but when can we meet the Nationals in our bowl. Come boys and get your egg from the bowl. Hadley Park awaits you.
Patton and Neshitt in great form, Cy Young driven from the mound.
Hadley Park Bowl.
The famous Athletic machine continued its great work Saturday in the bowl by defeating the Silver Leaf Giants 11 to 1. The Giants were shut out until the ninth inning, Webster who relieved Patton in the sixth threw wild to home plate to catch Adams who scored the only run of the day. The Athletics played in their old form and the boys from the nob did not have a chance. Harris was on third and played a great game. The Giants are a coming team and bear watching. The hitting of the Athletics in the pinches featured the day. Many times the Giants would have men on third but the fast work of the machine would cause them to retire. Ningo the husky fellow from Wet Baden will be in the Wet Baden with the face the Giants in Saturday's game in the bowl. Admission free.

LAX-FOS
CATHARIC AND LIVER MEDICINE but is composed of the following old-fashioned roots and herbs:
CASCARA BARK
BLUE FLAG ROOT
RHUBARB ROOT
BLACK ROOT
MAY APPLE ROOT
SENNA LEAVES
AND PEPSIN
In LAX-Fos the CASCARA is improved by the addition of these digestive ingredients making it better than ordinary CASCARA, and thus the combination acts not only as a stimulating laxative and cathartic but also as a digestive and liver tonic. Syrup laxatives are weak, but LAX-Fos combines strength with palatable, aromatic taste and does not gripe or disturb the stomach. One bottle will prove LAX-Fos is invaluable for Constipation, Indigestion or Torpid Liver. Price 50c.
