NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOLUME XII: GRAND SECRETARY MAYO'S VISIT To Sunday School Congress—Profitable Stay In Nashville—Great Meeting. On the four o'clock train Wednesday afternoon, June 13th inst., Grand Secretary, Wm. M. Mayo, Sr., left Frankfort, Ky., for his trip to Nashville, Tenn. He stopped over, at Louisville, on the same evening, and, in company with a very charming lady visited the Commencement Exercises of the Central High School, at Keltsha beautiful theatre. A very interesting program was rendered and very highly enjoyed. At 2:30 a. m. Thursday, on board of a fast train, south bound, he was on his way to the classic city of Tennessee. He was accompanied upon the trip by one of Lexington, Ky.'s prominent physicians, N. S. Ridley. 8:20 a. m., found us entering the city of Nashville, located upon the beautiful foot hills of the Cumberland Mountain, and no sooner arrived in the city than we found a large delegation of Sunday School workers from all parts of the United States assembled in a National Sunday School Congress—of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated.) Our first visit was to the M. Olive Church to attend the morning session of the Congress. Quite a number of the leading and very distinguished educators of the Baptist denomination were there. Dr. R. H. Body, the originator and chief promoter of the National Baptist Publishing was the main spirit around which the great body of old and young seemed to cluster and reverence. Dr. Boyd has done great good and substantial work for theift of his people, not only in the Baptist denomination but also for those of the race in general. After the morning services, we make our report, as usual, to our old friend, Rev. Preston Taylor, at his place of business, on Fourth Avenue. We found him in his usual good humor and with a pleasant smile of welcome upon his life. He took charge at once of the Grand Secretary and sent him to his palatial dugalow at Greenwood Place, in the aurea of the city. In this most delightful home, the wife ad mother-in-law greeted the Grand Secretary with the same hearty welcome as the husband and at once we were made to hear and at ease and in comfort. Mr. Taylor is at the richest man of our race in the State of Tennessee. His beautiful park of forty acres, all modern improvements and amusements, ample in accommodation for at least ten thousand people, is the finest pleasure place of its kind, owned by a colored man, in the world. His handsome cemetery located just at the back of the park covering fifty acres of the best land in the country, is a credit to any community in this country. Besides the park and cemetery, Mr. Taylor does a successful business in undertaking and owns a considerable amount of good property in the city. By the advice and effort of Bro. Taylor, the local lodges of Masons in the city of Nashville, have lately purchased a ten thousand dollar building in the central part of the city and are now remodeling the city. It will be a great place for the Masons. Thursday night, June 14th, we attended the meeting of the Congress at the M. Olive Baptist Church, where there were assembled at least 2000 people.

NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY—THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. Annual Meeting August 15-Chattanooga Host One Session On the Mountain. The Supreme Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias will hold its annual session in St Louis, and Hon. S. W. Greene, the supreme chancellor, has assured Secretary Emmett J. Scott that he will personally invite the delegates to the Grand Lodge to go to Chattanooga at the conclusion of their Grand Lodge session. H. A. Smith, president of the St. Louis Neo-Business League, and Fortune J. Weaver, president of the Kansas Negro Business League, have been invited to co-operate with the officers of the lodge in order that if possible a special train may bring the Missouri delegates and the supreme lodge delegates to Chattanooga in time for the meeting of the Business League. This session closes the first year of the Hon. J. C. Napier's incumbency as president of the league. Mr. Napier was Dr. Washington's warm personal friend and for a number of years was chairman of the executive committee of the league. At Kansas City, Mo. last year he was unanimously elected president of the league to succeed Dr. Washington, and this year he will give an account of his stewardship as the league's second president. Mr. Napier is one of the race's well known public-spirited men, and his efforts are always directed along the lines of prestige and the advanced thought.

George W. Franklin, Jr., president of the Chattanooga Local Business League, in the report of his arrangement states that one session of the meeting will be held on top of Lookout Mountain, where one of the most historic battles of the civil war was fought, so much so to the Negro and made it possible for the race to be recognized today as a contributing unit in American civilization.

Muskogee, Okla., June 25—The proposed segregation ordinance which a few narrow minded unpatriotic white men sought to pass here was defeated by the city council last week after a determined fight made against the nefarious bill by the colored people of this city through the local business league. The following petition was presented to the mayor and the city council at its meeting last week and upon the vote the council defeated the proposal law: The Honorable Mayor and City Council: The Negro Business League of this city has selected us to come before you for the purpose of entering its protest and objection t other proposed ordinance having for its object the segregation of the Negroes in this city. Our people cannot but view with alarm the spirit of race antipathy the enactments of such an ordinance will necessarily produce. In no other city in the country is the relation between the races so pleasant as in Muskogee. In no other place do the white business and professional men co-operate with the black business and professional men to suppress the mob and the mob spirit as here. In no other city, in the South, have large sections of black men discarded the party badge and voted for men because of their worth to the community as here. At listing our city is more prosperous than it has been for the last seven years and we are anxious for that prosperity to continue. We flatten ourselves with the belief that you gentlemen are largely responsible for that prosperity. You may have had your differences in bringing this prosperity, but you have brought it just the same, and we gladly give you credit for it. You are entitled to it. The Negroes object to the enactment of the contemplated ordinance, among others, for the following reasons: 1. Because it will hamper and retard the prosperity and progress of our city. 2. Because it will strain and disrupt the pleasant relations which have existed between the races here since the foundation of the city. 3. Because it will depreciate the values of prosperity owned by Negro and not enhance the values of property owned by white people. 4. Because history and experience teach that Ghetto districts do not receive the same appropriations and considerations at the hands of the city government as other parts of the city. 5. Because these districts never have sufficient gas, lights and sewerage; and street improvement is very rare. The highest death rate of the city is always found in segregated districts. 6. Because insurance companies do not seek business in segregated districts. 7. Because these districts are eye sores of the city and the very incubators of crime. 8. Because segregation ordinances provide the right or contract of the city. 9. Because there ordinances are manifestations of race hatred, and not prompted by a spirit of charity. 10. Because they impose an unnecessary hardship upon those who live in such districts when they attempt to secure legitimate loans upon their property. 11. Because the Negroes, to a certain extent, have segregated themselves in this city and no further segregation is necessary. 12. Because there is a large class of our people who pride themselves upon the fact that they are seeking the highest and best in civic development and to require them to curb these high aspirations and to live in districts prescribed by law is repugnant to the genius of our institutions. WHEREFORE, we ask that the contemplated Ordinance be not passed. H. T. WALKER. E. B. WEAVER. J. E. JOHNSON. S. W. CLEMONS. Com. Negro Bus. League. Work on $150,000 Y.M C.A.

Wide in its scope, deep in its import and successful in its culmination was the week's campaign among colored "women, conducted by colored women in the interest of the Great Red Cross Campaign just closed in the city. The Organization which was perfected with Mrs. J. C. Napier as Chairman and Mrs. J. C. Chavis Secretary is in good running order from the very beginning, these ladies being past masters in the art of handling organizations.

In selecting her workers Mrs. Napier showed farsightedness and a through understanding of human nature. Shrinkage in each of the committees was allowed for. The young woman under Miss Marion Hadley did not work. Each captain selected ten ladies to assist her and these were given nearly as possible territory in her immediate neighborhood to canvass. The campaign was very interesting and lively from the beginning and culminated in the great parade and demonstration held at Ryman auditorium Monday night in which the colored workers had a place. At the great demonstration in Ryman Auditorium the officers of the Colored Women's Department had a place in the speaker's stand.

The various rooms were decorated with large bunches of cut flowers and palms in a most unique manner. The Bridal Table sat in the Dining room most beautifully decorated with pink and white sweet peas, and cathedral candles, in the center of which was a richly embossed Bridal Cake. Tall candles burned all around the room giving off a soft light upon the well blended color scheme. As the guests anxiously awaited the appearance of the Bride and Groom, Mr. Geo E.

At this point the beautiful bride came into view upon the staircase and descending, reached the living room in the time that the Groom came in escorted by his best man, Mr. Reuben Black. During the performance of the ceremony the soft strains of the piano and violin floated through the rooms barely audible. After Rev. Proctor had pronounced the couple man and wife and had bestowed upon them his blessing the guests gathered to render their congratulations.

NOTABLE OLD FOLK DR.JONES'REPORT OF CINCINNATI ON EDUCATION Geo. W. Hayes' Career- Court Crier Forty-six Years-was Useful Citizen. It certainly is a golden heritage to hand down to one's family a life record of religious and patriotic duty, fidelity to God and man and a shining diploma from men eminent in public affairs, who time and again have with unbounded enthusiasm praised the faithfulness and fidelity of a modest, delicate and refined colored man of Cincinnati. Several Presidents of the United States, many United States Senators, Congressmen, Governors of States and the brilliant and shining lights of our courts and legal fraternity have been honored upon praise of George W. Hays, who has been connected with the United States Circuit and District Courts of the Southern District of Ohio many years. When it comes to harking back to times of long ago in Cincinnati there are few of whom Court Crier George W. Hays would need to ask any olds, and it were, for a point of long service he is easily far ahead of any of the hundreds who labor in the ramified workings of Uncle Sam. Crier Hays was early at it in the making of a record for public duty. From 1871 down to this present day he has been court crier of the United States District Court at Cincinnati—a long, long stretch of years, night unto the half-century mark. Every week and almost every day—barring Sabbaths only—that extent of time has allowed his post in the courtroom as regular as Old Sol himself. Though his father was a freeman, George Hays as a child and boy shared to the full and heavy evil of slavery which was the lot of his race at the time. He was barely 14 years old and knew nothing beyond the horizon of the Louisiana plantation which was his home when he was forced into the Confederate army to fight for the cause that would have left him and his in servitude. No wonder he took the first chance to pass over to the Union lines, glad it had put there, and to find himself at the height of the big struggle at length came to an end. Thus as always, he had the gift of making friends, his first efforts here were to get some education, and his own willingness and the help of kind friends were the things that worked for good. q And then in 1871 his “chance” came, Judge Swing appointing him crier of the United States Court. That has been his position since, Judge Sage, Judge Thompson and Judge Hollister each in turn finding him the right man for the place. No court judge, no judge, no judges and the lawyers; they know him as true, reliable, courteous ready, without fail. Mr. Hays has served in the State Legislature several terms as as trustee of the State School for the Blind. He has been active in the work of the colored Masons and the Old Fellows and has held some of their chief offices. One of the things in which he takes a particular pride is the Sunday school of the Union Baptist Church. He has been its superintendent the past sixteen years. He is a compendium of law. Many a young practitioner owes much to George W. Hays for teachings and teachments as to legal lore. His born modesty and nativity alone kept him from taking up a legal profession. George Hays never intruded his person upon another. He different from many of his race, involuntarily secured the respect of big men, men of national repute, men of history, through just one little simple brainy knowledge. He knew how to keep his place. Had George Hays entered the legal profession he would have won recognition and success. As it is, he has always preferred to remain as he is, never being brusque nor insolent. To this man his race certainly ows homage. He has been their steadfast friend. Men of big ideas, framers of law, have from time to time consulted Mr Hays as to appointments that would provide coloration to the colored man. George W. Hays has been a useful citizen and more. He has lived a life of honor and is beloved of his fellow men. Fourteen Pick Original of "Guess Who's Here." Arthur W.

Expert Finds South Especially Negligent In Providing Adequate Schools. Washington, June 26.—A report made by Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of an investigation conducted for the United States Bureau of Education and with the co-operation of the Phelps-Stock Fund, of New York, asserts that the Negro is more in need of an education that will fit him for country life than agricultural pursuits is declared the primary need, rather than for the higher walks of life. While the report is so worded for public consumption as to make it appear that the Negro is being trained in the higher branches to the detriment of the elementary, it hints that the South is grossly recurrent in providing support for the Negro common schools. It is a notorious fact that the South makes but scant provision for colored rural schools and only a few cities have high schools for Negro pupils. New Orleans and Atlanta are among the cities that have no Negro high schools. Poor pay for teachers and unfit buildings are another deterrent in public education. MARYLAND AN OFFENDER. Maryland is only a little ahead of the far South in providing school facilities for its colored rural population. The last Legislature there increased the terms of colored county schools to a minimum of seven months, after years of agitation against the shortness of the school year, which was as low as three months in some counties. The state offers any county $1,500 a year which installs industrial training, but agricultural training in colored rural schools. The only institution it supports for all the colored people is the State Normal School at Bowie. This school does not receive anything like the financial support it should have. In order to receive the federal appropriation to aid in running the Maryland Agricultural College (white) that the state has designated the Princess Anne Academy, controlled by the M. E Church, as the agricultural college for colored. While this institution is doing an admirable work, it does not equal in any degree the scope of the Maryland Agricultural College. DR. JONES' REPORT. "Despite the overwhelming proportion of Negroes living in the rural districts of the South," says Dr. Jones, "the elementary public school systems ignore the teaching of agriculture and the simple trades needed constantly on the farms. Few States provide higher schools of agriculture or supplement adequately the Federal funds appropriated for the joint operation of such schools for the Negroes. The schools conducted entirely by the colored people teach the classics and modern languages when they are rather be emphasizing an cultural and industrial training, and the other schools teach as a whole, teach forming and its supplemental trades only in a perfunctory way. "Of the private schools Hampton Institute, Tuskegee, Institute, and a few smaller institutions are making a genuine effort to prepare pupils for rural life. With very few exceptions, however, the colored schools have failed to develop an interest in rural problems. The large majority have not even tried. "The explanation of the indifference is in the conviction of the colored people that the way to prosperity and happiness is the study of literary subjects, and especially the classical languages. In this they are following the example of the white people, who are only now beginning to see that the way to prosperity is this. This emphasized by the life of drudgery which the pupils in colored schools have always seen to be the lot of colored farmers. Their own limited education also makes them loath to lose any opportunity to master the wonders of the printed page." Y. M. C. A. Reary for Guests, Choice Bed rooms. Let the fellows not forget that rooms for a dollar a week and above can be had at the Y. M. C. A. from now henceforth. Men who are choice in their selection of location and size of room would do well to be among the first to look them over. Every room is an outside room, but only about 40 of the 80 rooms front on Cedar street and Fourth avenue. The rooms are large, the overhead ceiling is high, the windows are large and all that enters in to make for comfort during the hot summer nights can be found in the Y. M. C. A. apartments; the men who have to complain of poor rooning accommodations may find their wants satisfied in the heart of the city at astoundingly low rates. The bathing facilities are the most modern—shower and tub, hot and cold water. The Committee of Management at the last meeting emphasized the necessity of each member and friend of the Association be coming thoroughly acquainted with (Continued on Page 8.) Tonoline Is Beaty Aid Announces Specialist Tonoline Is Beaty Aid Announces Specialist Mildred Louise Talk of Intrest to women As health is a first aid to beauty this story, told by Mildred Louise, beauty specialist, of Boston, Mass., is of unusual interest. "I can recommend no better health giver than tonoline," Mildred Louise. "I was for many months a victim of stomach trouble and nervousness. I had suffered terribly from pains that followed eating. Headaches also would add to my worries. Poor digestion finally brought on nervousness." "Relief came, however, when I took the advice of several women who said, 'Take tonoline.'" "Not long after I started the tonoline treatment, my patrons began to remind me of the improvement in my condition. And because health is the quickest way to beauty, the improvement was particularly noticeable in my life." "What tonoline really did for me is not say, I am so grateful that I am very willing to recommend tonoline publicly." Tonoline is a purely vegetable preparation which goes to the seat of common maladies—stomach and kidney trouble, catarral affections of the mouscous membranes, liver ailments and impurities of the blood—and quickly restores proper action. Tonoline is being explained daily to many people at any drug store. Notice: As tonoline is a wonderful flesh builder it should not be taken by any one not wishing to increase his weight ten pounds or more. Although many reports are received from those who have been benefited by tonoline in severe cases of stomach trouble and nervous dyspepsia, chronic constipation, etc. -50c BOX FREE— FREE TONOLINE COUPON AMERICAN PROPRIETARY CO.

Breathe Deeply, and Take Tassco Fat persons, particularly those from 10 to 30 pounds above normal weight will be interested to learn that they may easily reduce their weight without starvation diet or tiresome exercise. This can best be done by being moderate in your diet, so that you will not overtax your assimilative organs, by getting plenty of fresh air, by breathing deeply and by taking tassco four times a day. Tassco may be obtained from any druggist in 5 grain tablets, take one after each meal and one before retiring at night. They cost little, are absolutely harmless, are pleasant to take and are designed to reduce fatty accumulations in the system where ever located. A few days treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight, the flesh should become firm, the skin smooth and the general health improved, in fact your footsteps should even become lighter, your foot seem easier and a lighter, more buoyant should take possession of your whole being. Every person who is 10 or 20 pounds over normal weight should surely give this treatment a trial. You will probably find that it is just what you need. — (Adv.)

New York, N. Y. The Wall Street Journal, the most influential publication among bankers brokers, corporations, and financial organizations of New York, says. Given time enough, even when taking too much as it customarily says, the United States Senate is a deliberative body which will correct the foolishness of the lower house, most of the time but unfortunately, not all of the time it is sometimes foolish itself. But at least it killed the amended tack on, without hymn or reason, to the espionage bill by Senator Cummins prohibiting the use of grain in the manufacture of alcohol. This amendment was calculated to kill some hundred millions of tax-paying capital in the brewing industry without attaining any of the objects which are supposedly at the heart of the prohibition party. The manufacture of whiskey, and of all spiritous liquors, is based on age, and the longer stock can be accumulated in bond, the better the investment of the manufacture of spirits becomes. But the manufacturer of beer does not profess to sell old ale in any quantity to be worth taxing. The lock-up consequence of prohibiting the use of grain on the Cummins' amendment would be to set people who drink a comparatively harmless beverage, to drinking whiskey and other hard spirits. Post Office Closed on July 4th. The 4th of July will be observed by the Nashville Post office to the fullest extent possible, and the Post Office and all of its stations will be closed to the public during the entire day. The following order has been issued by Postmaster Shannon to the Post Office. Wednesday, July 4, being a National Holiday, the Nashville Post Office and its stations will be closed during the entire day. This is in accordance with the Postal Act approved July 28, 1916. Sufficient collections will be made during the day to promptly dispatch all out-going mail. The employees whose services must necessarily be required that day will be given compensatory time during the thirty days following the 4th of July. There will also be no service on Rural Routes on that day. I presume that all employees have noticed in the daily press where the president of the United States asks that the 4th of July this year be observed by the people of the United States as a day of patriotism only, consequently, all departments of the post office are held closed to the public that day and it is hoped that every day we will take advantage of the opportunity to show his or her patriotism in such manner as each individual may feel that it can be best shown." The Postmaster desires to impress upon the public that the carriers will make no delivery of mail, and that none of the windows at the post office will be open for that purpose. consequently, as, patrons expecting important mail that it is necessary that they receive on that day should immediately notify the senders to place a special delivery stamp there on so that it will be delivered to them by special messenger. Box holders can of course get their mail as usual and will not be effected by the order. Local Knight Prepare for Grand Opening.

Porde of Harmony Lodge, gave some valuable advice as how best to interest the rank and file.

Chicago, Ill.—The exodus of Negro goes from the South to northern manufacturing points, stronger with in the last month or so, is reagged as likely to increase considerably as the season advances, and to be true throughout summer. No more than a quarter of those leaving the South, it is expected will return. The condition is totally without precedent, since reconstruction days. As to the situation in Chicago, A. L. Jackson, executive secretary of the Wabash Avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A. says: "The Negroes are coming into Chicago pretty regular, and in larger numbers now. I had a man watch the railroad stations recently for 10 days, and the Police Department also had a man take a careful census. In one week they found 500 arrivals and in another week from 200 to 1500. All, of course, do not stop in Chicago. Many so on you come to Chicago, Harbor and Gary, Detroit, Moline, and various other manufacturing centers. In two days my agent found two parties of from 50 to 75 Negroes using Chicago as a transfer point. The flow has been very steady through good weather." "The real reason for the migration," continued Mr. Jackson, himself a Negro, and an authority locally, "is the desire of the Negroes to better their school, housing, social and sanitary conditions. The exodus is coming for the most part from Mississippi, Georgia, and Louisiana with Mississippi leading, and also from South Carolina. Mississippi is leading because of two conditions—lynch law and peonage. In Alabama and Virginia, so called 'good' States, they are not feeling the Negro migration, but in the states with lynch law and poor schooling, they are leaving in large numbers. The readjustment of the Negro population and higher wages will help them all around, thinks Mr. Jackson. in the North Territory because of the rage of raise in the South, the shortage of them will make their labor more valuable and increase their bargaining power, assuring them more consideration in those questions of law enforcement, schools, housing and conditions of cleanliness.

As soon as President W. J. Hale of the Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial tate Normal School, learned that we were in the city, he very cordially invited us to spend a part of one time with him and his family. In Rev. Taylor's car we were carried early on Friday morning to the campus of this great school. When one sees the grounds, he is struck with a sense of great admiration. The buildings are large and beautiful. The geometry surrounding it is most sublime and lovely. We were met at the entrance of the administration building by one of the senal secretaries to the president, who conducted us to the president's general office, and, after having been announced to the president, we were warmly greeted by him in his private office. President Hale called some of his efficient aides and placed us in their hands with instructions that we should be made perfectly at home. We visited every class room in the school and found a busy class in each with an able and wild-wake instructor over the student body of six hundred teachers assembled in the auditorium of the school, and splendid religious exercises were held. President Hale very kindly introduced the Grand Secretary and requested from him a speech. We our best and from the applause received the teachers must have been satisfied. These teachers are taking a summer course to better fit them for next year's work. There is expected at least four hundred more teachers to matriculate during the following week. We had the pleasure of taking a meal in the spacious dining hall with the students. One of the interesting features attending this meal hour was the religious program at the end of the meal, conducted by Rev Hampton, Commandant. Soul stirring hymns were sung and a good prayer was offered by one of the professors. At night the teachers were treated to moving through the auditorium. A near delightful night was spent at the residence of the president, which is located upon the campus. We were made just as welcome here by the wife of the president as we were in the school building. We enjoyed several meals with the family of the president and had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Hale's mother and father. Our little friend, Wm. J. Hale, Jr., although only about two years old, is the favorite of the entire school. I. Mrs. Hale is a charming hostess and makes a splendid companion to her worthy husband in his position. Saturday morning President Hale took his beautiful car to the city, where he met Mrs. C. A. This building has been recently purchased from a firm who had run it as a large hotel. It is a very compartmental structure and with the proper remodeling will make a very homely and up-to-date home for Y. M. C. A. purposes. Mr. Sanders the secretary, is a very congenial man and seems to be the right man in the right place. A picnic was given at the Greenwood Park, by the Sunday School Workers. It was largely attended and a great man was there. At night the B. Y. P. U. school spat program at the Mt. Olive School. Madame Bledelle B. Johnson Bell of Oklahoma sang upon this occasion and captivated the large audience with her most marvelous voice. She seemed to be the star of the congress, Mr. E. L. Cunningham of Lexington, also sang a five selection and was very warmly applauded. Others did well and the entire program gave universal satisfaction. Our morning, we attended services in the M. Olive Baptist Church and licensed to an interesting sermon preached by Rev. Hurse of Kansas City, Mo. We took dinner with our friend Prof. T. B. Hardiman, Grand Secretary of F. A. M. of Tennessee and his family, in company with Mrs. Hardiman and little Ben Hardiman, the son of Prof. Hardiman, we viewed the great Sunday School Congress Parade on its way to Ryman Auditorium. There were over five thousand persons in that parade. It was the largest collection of Sunday School workers that we had ever seen at one place. It was viewed by at least ten thousand people and we clock the auditorium was packed with members of the congress and the friends who came to witness the program. There were over three hundred per sons upon the stage. The music was very skillfully directed by Prof H. P. B. Johnson, of Muskegue, Okla. The principal address was made by Judge W. H. Harrison, of Oklahoma, City, Okla. It was filled with enthusiasm, eloquence and patriotism. We have not heard one more able to handle his subject than Judge Harrison. He is a credit to the race and any one who has not heard him has been treated that as many as eight thousand persons were present and listened to this masterful piece of oratory. On Monday we had the very great pleasure of taking dinner with Dr. R. H. Boyd and his family and with the assistance of her charming daughter Mrs. Bennefield, were equal to the occasion in making it extremely pleasant for all present. Dr. Boyd has a very beautiful home which is a credit not only to himself and his family, but to the community in which he works, ability to be able to do what Dr. Boyd done. He deserves the commendation of all of the race for his splendid achievements. The Sunday School School Congress numbering over one thousand and ninety delegates from all part of the United States, very heartily and warmly endorsed Dr. Boyd and his Publishing House. Kentucky had 119 delegates. After spending some time with friends on Tuesday in the morning, we were taken out for an automobile drive through the city in the hand some cur of Dr. Stewart. His son was at the wheel, and the party consisted of Mrs. Stewart and daughter, Mrs. H. Noell Miss M. E. Williams, and young Mr. Stewart, with the Grand Secretary. We had the pleasure of seeing Roger Williams University, and they built a building on the Capitol National Theological School. This is a most magnificent place for the school and will be just the location for such an institution. Having concluded the ride we went to the theatre with some friends and then found ourselves ready to take the 3:10 a.m. train Wednesday morning out of Nashville for Louisville, Ky. It was a quiet an interesting trip on our way to Louisville. We met upon the train a coach load of men, women and children en route to different parts of the North to settle. They were of a good class of people and had means to pay their way and to travel comfortably. They reported that hundreds are yet preparing to follow from Alabama and Georgia. We arrived in Louisville at $8 a.m. and after reporting to the Y. M. C. A. we started out upon our visitation among our friends. The Christian Eau Claire Society of the A.M. E. Church was just as assembled in the city, Quinn Chapel for a general meeting, and at night, the Grand Secretary had the pleasure of accompanying one of Louisville's splendid young ladies to this place. INSPECTION OF MAJSONIC HOME On Thursday morning in company with Bro. T. W. Bradford, the Grand Secretary inspected the Masonic Home and the farm. We found Superintendent J. W. Embry out in the field hoeing cabbage and his wife busy at her domestic duties. Bro. Moran, an aged inmate, was out sunning himself. We were delighted with the looks of everything. The 9 Specialist Says Everyone Should Drink Hot Water In The Morning Wash Away All The Sounds, Liver and Bowel Poisons Before Breakfast To feel your best, day in and day out, to feel clean inside, no sour bile to coat your tongue and sicken your breath or dull your head; no contipation, billious attacks, no headache, colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stomach, you must bathe on the inside like you bathe outside. This is vastly more important, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do, says a well-known kidney special- To keep these poisons and toxins well flushed from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, drink, before breakfast each day, a glass of hot water with a kidneco tablet then take it before dinner and supper with a glass of cold water.

The two poules which were purchased only a couple a months ago are growing better looking every day. The Johnson mule was introduced to the Grand Secretary, and Bro. Embry requested that the Grand Secretary would step behind the mule's limbs to behold how nice he locked and how gentle—but the Grand Secretary preferred to remain in front of his muleship. Every time we visit this place we are more than ever pleased with our purchase. Mrs. Embry prepared us a host dinner. And as Bro. A. Q. Greene said, Bro. Maya drank sweet milk and ate greens until he could do no more. While in Louisville, we had a conference with Bros. W. E. Johnson and P. W. Bradford concerning the management, etc. of the Home. Some little changes will be made when the Grand Master and the other members of the Board meet, and we feel that the Home is on the road to eminence success. Wednesday night found the Grand Secretary at home in his office with a pile of letters and reports awaiting his return. NASHVILLE GLOBE.

Nashville Office, Frost and Frost, Inde- pendent Life Building. Mashille, Tenn., June 29, '17 THWART THE PROPOSED INJUSTICE. The Army Board of Physicians, we are reliably informed, is about to recommend the retirement of Lieutenant Colonel Charles Young, the ranking Negro officer of the United States Army, on account of alleged "high blood pressure." On the contrary, Lieutenant Young aids that he never felt better in his life, and that he has never enjoyed better health, and that he is fully physically fit to continue in the active services of the army. We here and now enter our veneham protest against the proposed recommendation as it would be outrageous and a lasting racial calamity. If Lieutenant Colonel Young is retained in the active services of the army, and promoted to the rank of Colonel, he would stand sixth in the line of Colonels for promotion to Brigadier Generalship, and this is exactly what this Army Board of Physicians are trying to prevent from happening. They see that something must be done and done quickly to head the Negro from the coveted and well-earned promotion. We respectfully ask our civic organizations, our fraternities, our churches, and even individuals to get busy right now and bring every influence possible to bear upon the United States authorities and officials who have to do with this particular matter. Let them know in no uncertain sound that the Negro citizens are squarely behind Lieutenant Colonel Young. Lieutenant Colonel Young deserves to fare well at the hands of the high-ups he has been faithful to every trust imposed. He has done his duty cheerfully and without complaint. The Negro organizations of the country should either write or wre their representatives requesting them to use their influence in order to have this good man retained in the service of the United States Army. Get busy. ISAAC FISHER'S SPEECH Now that's the kind of speech we like and enjoy. It was truly a speech that came from the heart of the man who made it, a speech devoid of frills and furbels, a speech from which the absence of "I" was significantly noted. It was in no sense egotistical. The great audience at the Red Cross meeting at the Auditorium Monday night applauded him approvingly and then applauded again because they couldn't help themselves Isaac Fisher made a speech that thrilled and pleased the vast assemblage. He knew what to say, how to say it, and said it. Fisher made a speech and everybody at the auditorium knows he made a good one, a timely one, and a righteous one. THE TRANSFER STATION We have not heard of any of our civic organizations protesting to the street car people about the injustice or denying seats to Negroes on the North side of the transfer station. We are sure if this matter is placed before the officials of the Nashville Railway and Light Company that some provision will be made for the seating of our people. We do not believe that the general manager, or his assistants know of the harshness that has been heaped upon some of our best women by policemen in the transfer station. Now let a committee go around to Watkins Institute and interview Mr. Edgar. We are not particular about sitting among the white people, but give us seats on the North Side. WHERE CAN THE NEGRO FISH? We see from the daily papers that the Park Commission says the lakes at Shelby and Centennial Parks are available for fishing for white chili dren only. We have no serious objection, but what we wish to know is, where are the Negro children to fish? There is no lake at Hatley Park, then where, oh where? There seems to be a disposition by the au thorities to let the Negro shift for himself. No provision for owing save Hatley Park, is made for the black man and his offspring. Give the Negro children lakes in which to fish; make life tolerable for their anyway. No exemptions should be made from draft on account of the fact that a man's religious creed is such that it forbids him to serve his country in time of war. Any religious creed or belief that forbids such service should have no place in this country, for a man who does not think enough of as good a country as this to do what he can to defend it in time of peril, is a mighty poor stick, no matter what his religion may be. Every fat man isn't fat because he overeats. But every fat man is under suspicion, and before the war is out, with the food controller on the job, a fat man will have to be able to furnish a pretty good alibi to avoid being called an unpatriotic individual guilty of consuming more than his share of provender. We are going to get one of those fit-me-quick coats with a strap that's afraid to go all the way around—well, if you don't understand what we are trying to get at—we don't know except that Overton Carter wears one. We suggest, however, that tramps would make excellent dog meet this summer. And think of it—it would be right in line with our national efforts in economy. Let's say "Sie 'em." A lot of valuable food and a considerable amount of that Monday morning feeling might be saved by cutting out all the special trimmings of the big Sunday dinner. Let ush one the bear that walks like a man will not prove to be the bear that walks like a baby. Now let's all go out to Greenwood Park on the glorious Fourth, and get under the shade of the trees. In a way a relationship can be traced between food control and control of the appetite. A good way to get any possible taint off money is to make a good use of it. Wouldn't it be a fine thing if watermelons were as nutritious as potatoes? And George Washington was seen crying—but let that pass. The Negroes of Nashville did well in the Red Cross Campaign. Soon be warm enough for the girls to bring out their furs. Don't forget to swat the potato bus That's all. _____ g Marriages. Oliver Leslie Hambrick and Franklin C.

Robinson, D. D. The National Baptist Congress met in Nashville, Tenn., on the 13th and continued in session until the 18th of June. It was a grand success. I feel safe in saying that a greater gathering of Negro Baptists has never met before. One would have almost been stupefied as well as pleased to have seen the array of talent and religion gathered therein. Experts in teaching Sunday School; experts in B. Y. P. U. work; experts in Galeda and Metoka work, indeed refinement and ability along all lines could be clearly seen and appreciated. The record shows that more than thirty states were represented in this Congress. The boys were looking at long range when they laid the plans to have such a gathering. Such a gathering really and actually stimulates Sunday school workers and others who might attend: it sharpens the intellect of men and women who profess an of the study of Sunday school literature and gives out the information to others. Many of our best men and women were in this gathering and seemed to have been consecrated to the work of our Lord and Master. The Congress is a fixed organization that we feel cannot be done away with. Nor can we do without such meetings. It is the only place where the Baptist laymen can vie with the ministers and teachers and at the same time do proactive and sum up work for the development and our Master's care. No one attends these meetings can help from being benefited. At the same time that the Congress was in session, the National Baptist Executive Board was arranging for the great National Baptist Convention that convenes in Atlanta in September. You will be surprised to learn that at this meeting of the Executive Board, a plot of seven acres and a building containing sixty-five rooms was purchased by the Board to be used as a Theological Seminary. For a long time the establishment of this institution has been contemplated and now that tangible steps have been taken to establish a church, the ministerate of late interest in this work and educate those ministers of the gospel who seek to broaden their vision and information. We have purchased the grounds and buildings and if the Baptists of this country rally to this effort as they should it will not be long until we will have a ministry that educationally will have few equals and no superiors. Hundreds of us walked over the grounds and through the building. The campus is high and rolling. The Buildings are made of pressed brick; the rooms are tastefully and beautifully plastered and frescoed and the interior is nicely arranged and in splendid condition. The building and the building for 5,000. We are calling on the Baptist brothers who believe in progress to arise in their financial strength and rally to this great effort for the race and denomination. Our misunderstandings and chafings are due to ignorance. An enlightened ministry will give us an enlightened church, the very thing and the crying need of our denomination at this time, hour and day. We should therefore rally around those men who are giving their lives in the work of the denomination. For a number of years we have been meeting and offering resolutions for the establishment and purchasing of a Theological Seminary; we as a denomination have long felt the need of such an institution. We believe that all Baptists should center upon this Seminary because it is for the whole people and especially for the denomination. The hundreds of Baptist young ministers in the far South will have a place to go where they can prepare for their life's work in the ministry. I rejoice to think that those young men who have been praying for the day to come when they could study for the ministry in their own Theological Seminary will now have their prayer answered. The property is situated in East Nashville. Its establishment and maintenance will brighten the culture and refinement of every Baptist in America. It will create within them new life. We will help the thousands of sleeping Bantus who arise from their sleep and put on their beautiful garments or righteousness. NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY JUNE 29 1917 YOU CAN HAVE LONG STRAIGHT HAIR If Anxious to Improve Your Hair and General Appearance Read This Carefully. There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding on what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is the invention of a New York chemist, and is made under the personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist of many years' experience. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the hair, and natural growth of long hair. It makes the hair soft, smoothe and glossy, and easy to put up in the style destined. To get the best results from the use of Quinade the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seeby's Quinasoap, Quinasoap is made entirely out of vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and contains no animal fat of any kind. It lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap leaves the hair soft and fluffy, and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp, unequalled by any other shampoo. You can buy any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler. The price is 25c each. Write to Seeby Drug Co., 79 East 130th street New York City, for a sample, mentioning the name of this paper. (Adv.) It is said in the Scriptures: 'Awake thon that sleepest.' This institution has been the dream of our denomination for several years but it is just now materializing. The entire denomination can now look the same way and all profit in the same thing for this Institution is not for a few but for the entire denomination and race. Every Sunday school and Church should take part in raising money to further this work. Every man that is able bodied should not fail to give a good donation. Our great blunder as a race grows out of the lack of refined and intelligent leaders. In fact all of our churches should come in contact with this denominational asset and make good while they can. This is what the people want—material for value received. So that our meeting at Nashville after all will be of lasting memory to who all attended and of material benefit to the race and denomination and no one will regret having attended it who was in attendance thereon. The people of Nashville are intelligent, generous and cultured, and we meet with the best intellectual giants of that city. And too, the people of Nashville are generally right and always admirable. ALEXANDRIA NOTES Mrs. Stella Blue of Bowling Green is here on a visit to her aunt, Mrs. Alice Turner.

Reporter. WAR LOAN WILL BRING U S. RECORD PROSPERITY, SAYS RICHARD WILLIAMS Ten billion dollars to be spent during the coming year by the United States and the allied governments for the products of American farms, mines and factories. Secretary McAdoo declared at New York, will bring to the greatest prosperity its history. "Some people profess apprehension about the future of business," said McAdoo. "Why, gentlemen, prosperity in the next twelve months will be greater than it ever has been in our history. You cannot prevent it if you try. The only thing that can stop prosperity would be the refusal of the people to support the reasonable taxation that are needed and to buy the bonds of the Government." SMALL THINGS. The wise ones have always told us not to despise the day of small things, and almost every day's experience teaches us that the greatest fortunes that are accumulated come in small sums. The average young man fancies that richels and dimes amount to nothing, and that unless he has a considerable sum of money to put away it is not worth saving. The reason for this is that the fortune through the agency of infinitesimals is shown in the case of Mr. Asa G. Candler, of Atlanta, who has recently purchased three and a half million dollars' worth of the bonds of his state at a premium. He did not form a syndicate nor did he borrow the money—he had it. This money was made on coca-cola, which sells for 5 cents a bottle. The bottle itself costs something and the liquid within must cost something, however small; the freight must be deducted from the selling price, and the profit. When the nickel is divided so many ways that part of which goes to the producer must be small indeed, and yet these fractions of a jitney have enriched Mr. Candler and enabled him to invest three and a half million dollars. He did not despise the day of small things, but was willing to take his chances on filling the measure of his success by a drop at a time. His career has certainly been marvelous. It is only a few years as that he was laughed at when he tried to sell enough stock in his company to make a profit in the facture of his product. That stock that went begging at the outset, and which no one would invest in, excepting a charitable contribution, is now worth fabulous sums of money. The ordinary man or boy would scorn to consider the profits on a bottle of coca-cola, but Mr. Candler husbanded them, with the result that he is a multimillionaire. Murfreesboro Sentinel.

Refrain: You all wuz George! The Mermaid's Melody. Cradled high on the white wave's foam So high, so low. Free as the sea-gulls which o'er us roam Lulled by the ocean's roar. Merrily we, our snowy limbs lave Then down to Neptune's nethermost cave. What care we, though the billows rave? As up and down we go. Madly we dash with the blinding spray So high, so low. Down in the deep where the fishes play, Lulled by the ocean's roar. Rocked on its bosom, so happy are we. Tossed by the billows so grand and so free Then down in the depths of the gray old sea, And up and down we go. High o'er the sea, on the mossy rocks High over the sea, on the mossy rocks So high, so low. In the cold sunshine we dry our wet locks Louled by the ocean's roar. Or comb our hair with a comb of pearl. Or with the seaweed we twine our curl. Then back in the sea, ourselves we hurl So up and down we go. —Frankle C. DeBerry. Indian Buffalo Hunt.

"The doctor wanted to take his tonsils out and said his lungs were affected. After I had tried everything else I got Lung-Vita and he beaten taking it. Now you would not recognize him as the same boy. It has worked wonders with him and I can say it is a great medicine." Colds, coughs, gripe, whooping cough—we are all subject to them. And what do you do when they attack you? You can not be the needy child who will break them up and in addition will make you feel better all around. Keep it on hand. Lung-Vita is sold by druggists and dealers. (Adry.) Sunday School Congress delivered a special address on Friday night, June 2nd, to a magnificent audience at the Mt. Morlah Baptist Church.

We have purchased a most magnificent site upon which stand modern college buildings surpassed by none for Negroes in the South. This Seminary is located in Nashville. What part Tennessee Baptists will play in paying for and maintaining it will be decided at the meeting at Snyrna. Let every Godfellow Baptist give this convention prepared to give things and subscribe more. Let every loving Baptist come and bring or send something.

S. Ellington spent Sunday in Ripley, Tenn., assisting in the Anniversary and Installation services of Rev. Chas. W. Kelly, the pastor of the Holly Grove Baptist Church. The church celebrated the first anniversary of churchmen from the rural districts and near by towns and villages were in attendance. Rev. Ellington delivered a speech of overlowing audiences. The Holly Grove Baptist Church is one of the strongest churches financially in West Tennessee; it raised during the first year of Rev. Kelly's pastorate $1575, it has bought a parsonage at a cost of 1550, and has met the payments on the same promptly. Rev Kelly is a great organizer, his faithfulness to duty, honesty and his spotted Christian life has won for him many friends and admirers. The white people of the town colored the belief, befit him and are giving him support in his effort to upift and to save. Rev Kelly is greatly encouraged and helped by his intelligent, loving faithful and Christian wife. Phone Main 388 Lee & Company Funeral Directors and Embalmers Calls Promptly Answered at All Hours Truly she is a helpmeet. It is hard to tell which one of the two, the members love the better. The Holly Grove Baptist Church has truly entered upon an era of great prosperity under the wise and efficient pastorate of Rev. Kelly. Aside from being a consecrated man, he is a thoroughly educated man. He was graduated with honour from the Norwirk College, the tools the degree of B. A. from Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., and his degree of B. D. from Oberlin. Rev. Kelly has before him a bright future. Ex-President Jones to Succeed Rev. Johnson. After twelve years of arduous labor in the development of the educational interest of the A. M. E. Church in this state, and especially toward the building pp Turner College at Shelbyville, Dr. J. A. Jones, retires from the field in order to take a much needed rest. The African Methodists of the state wanted a man, twelve years ago to go to Shelbyville, and revive the school work in that town, as well as to revolutionize the entire educational system of the work in the state among the denomination. The work had declined until the school was known only among a few of the leaders of the church, and was hardened and among the denominational institutions. Dr. J. was finally induced, after much hesitation to resign the pastorate of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, Nashville, where he was then serving, to take charge of the work at Shelbyville. His efforts have brought the school M. B. REV. J. J. A. JONES. Ex-President, Normal College, Shelbyville, Tenn. into favorable notice not only among the other institutions of the connection, but given it a place of honor and distinction among the leading schools of this state. Dr. Jones gave notice to his Board several months ahead, that it was his intentio to retire from the work at the close of the last session, and ask that care be taken to choose his successor at the beginning of the Board which met. During Commencement week in May, he tendered his resignation, and took an active part in choosing his successor. Many expressions of regret came from every source, at the retiring of President Jones. Members of the Board of trustees, members of the student body, the alumni and the local citizens of Shelbyville, both white and colored all poined in expressing their deepest regrets that the institution was losing the services of such a worthy and faithful official and citizen. It was Dr. Jones' intention to spend the summer months in rest and travel, feeling that he was in great need of rest. Indeed before he had fully completed the task of moving from Shelbyville, to his home in Nashville, he suffered a collapse, and acting on the advice of his physician, Dr. Mattie E. Coleman, he spent a period at the Millie E. Hale Hospital, where he was soon put on the road to a speedy recovery. The election of Dr. L. J. Johnson, of Payne Chapel, to the presidency of Turner College, left the pastorate of that church open. Dr. Jones has been assigned by the bishop to fill out the unexpired term of Dr. Johnson at Payne Chapel. He is an experienced pastor as well as a great educator and the people of East Nashville may expect some splendid service from one of the foremost ministers of the A. M. E. Connection. Dear Brethren and Sisters, only a fewday now until the Missionary Baptist State Convention will meet with the M. Zion Baptist Church, Smyrna, Tenn. Wednesday before the third Lord's day in July, 1917 is the time of meeting. Our brothers and sisters of that great church are leaving no stones untured to make the stay of the messengers which compose the State Convention, a pleasant one, and have the greatest session that it has been our pleasure to hold. Our President, Rev. J. L. Harding, D. D., has been especially helpful to the great Baptist denomination of Tennessee in furnishing long deferred but much needed information to our great denomination (and the world as far that) in articles which have been printed in the papers during the year. Coming generations must look with favor or disfavor upon our children for the work and the manner which we are doing for the Master. Enclosed you will find a church letter blank which you will W.H. ODEN 416 Fifth Avenue, N. General Manager kindly fill out according as God has promised you. It is the desire of your Board to get back to the land mark of Missionary Baptist for which many of our fathers suffered and died, that the true cause of liberty might have its place in the Missionary Baptist Churches. Our financial slogan for this year is $2,000.00 for Missionary Educational work, which is about 10 cents per member. Will you do your part? Yours for the cause of Christ, Executive Committee: Rev. J. L. HARDING, President, M. H. BURNS, Secretary. Dr. J. R. Martin successful. News has just reached Nashville that Dr. J. R. Martin, a recent graduate of the 1917 dental class, was successful in passing the Tennessee dental examination which convened in Memphis, Tenn. Dr. Martin made a splendid showing there. It won't be long before we will hear of his future success. We all hope for him much success in his new field of labor. He anticipates taking the Georgia board in the near future. Mrs. Louise M. Braxton, a Tuskegee Graduate. Chattanooga, Tenn. 26.—(Special to the Globe)—Mrs. Louise M. Braxton, a Tuskegee graduate of Machon Normal and Industrial Institute of Machon, Ga., spent ten days in our city, delivering a series of lectures, to the colored people. Dr. D. H. Butler, pastor of Warrow A. M. E. Church, and Mr. G. W. Franklin, the great colored undertaker, made it possible for Mrs. Braxton to speak to our people. Mrs. Braxton comes to Chattanooga recommended by leading officials of Georgia. She has established three schools in Alabama for rural Negro children through the kindness of Dr. Booker T. Washington in his life time. She was wanted by Man, by the white citizens to organize an Industrial School. Mrs. Braxton is perhaps the youngest woman in public life. In introducing Mrs. Braxton at the Monumental Baptist Church, Mr. Franklin said, "I am proud to have the honor of saying something about this great woman. I have been seeing her at the Negro Business League for nine or ten years. In an unassuming way, Mrs. Braxton is one of our great women. I only wish all Chattanooga could have heard her last night at Wiley Memorial M. E. Church, and I am sure those of your age will regret it, for she is worth bearing. I hope Mrs. Braxton will speak on that beautiful subject, 'Love in the Home.'" Mrs. Braxton was born of foreign parentage. She speaks French and Spanish fluently. She is interested in the club work of Georgia, being state organizer of the Colored Federation of the Women's Clubs. She is interested in all that tends to help our race. It is said that she is the only woman, being a Tuskegee graduate, who is in public life. She is on her way to Cincinnati, New York and Pittsburgh to speak in the interest of her work. She has lectured to both white and colored audiences. Mrs. Braxton had the opportunity to address the white Presbyterian women in the city of Macon, Ga., several weeks ago on "Industrial Training and Efficiency in the Home." The woman of Macon is one of the best lectures ever heard from the lips of a Negro woman. She delivered a lecture Monday night at Monumental Baptist Church to a packed house. Her subject was "The Sacredness of Marriage." Mrs. Braxton plans to return to Chattanooga during the National Negro Business League session, as it was intimated by Mr. Franklin, the Negro Business League must know something of these great women and the race should feel proud of her. In one of her lectures, she paid a high tribute to Dr. Booker T. Washington and Tuskegee Institute. Prof. Clifford T. Randals left Saturday night for Lafayette, Ind., to be the guest of Mr. Spencer Steger for a few days. The remainder of the summer will be spent in Chicago. Avondale. Miss Susie E. Sargent and Miss Jannie B. Cantrell were joint hostesses Wednesday night to a beautifully planned pound party which was given at Maples, the home of Miss Sargent. For the occasion, the house was beautifully decorated with field daisies and ferns. Mrs. Rufus Sargent and Mrs. Eliza Cantell assisted the hostesses in welcoming their guests. Music and games were enjoyed until a late hour. A beautiful table was set and a delightful course was served. Seated at the table with the hostesses were Misses Perlina Dyer, Essie J.

It seems indeed hard for some things and people to give up any place when their time is actually out. Good old Winter and Spring with their cold and unreasonable weather hang on with an unreasonable tenacity, they ought to be kind enough to give way and let Summer have her time honored place. For such is essential for the development of vegetable life. Cotton and growing crops need the assistance of warm weather. Some body ought to whisper into the ears of the other seasons, the important fact that they are intruders. But possibly Winter and Spring are taking their own from some men whom they recognize as God's higher creatures. Some of our leaders were essential and useful in their day and generation, but their day is out. New and more seasonable men are knocking at the door. Pass on brethren, your time is out. You are impeding and hindering the growth and development of the Christian work. If we are to have a great harvest of the fruit of the Spirit every man must serve his day and pass on without hindrance. A Superior Young Man. If the Editor of the People's Defender were called upon to point out the most brilliant and progressive spirit among the young men and women of our great Baptist Denomination, he would certainly regard it as a very great, as well as delicate task, for it must be conceded that there are many brilliant young minds in a denomination so vast and numerous as ours. But considering the work done, and the brain power and religious enthusiasm exercised, the Editor would be forced to place that distinction upon the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, the Asst. Secy. of the National Baptist Publishing Board and the most efficient Secretary of the National Baptist Sunday School Congress. As prime mover and advertising spirit of the National Baptist Sunday School Congress he has proven himself a genius, gathering together, hundreds of brilliant young people where they would come under the direct influence of the most intelligent and progressive minds of the race. The good derivate, the healthy influence set in motion by the representative of thirty-four states coming in touch and becoming imbued and saturated with such Baptist thought and doctrine cannot be estimated. The Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, is, in our judgment, one of ten most brilliant minds and congenial spirits in our entire race. People's Defender NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY JUNE 29, 1917. [Portrait of a man in formal attire, with a mustache and a beard, wearing a suit and a bow tie. The background is plain and oval-shaped.] REV. DAVID E. OVERS, D. D. Moderator Colored Baptist General Church Denver Col., Who is to be in National Baptist Convention which Our Sunday School Congress. The National Sunday School Congress was the most healthy and 'inbeen the Editor's privilege to meet. A thousand young Baptists gathered in one great training school, for indeed that is what the Sunday School Congress was; presented one of the most profitable and suggestive gatherings. Those people, both of our own and other races, who have come in contact with the ordinary and sometimes real common young Negro, and therefore formed a discouraging opinion of the race and the baptists church ought have been in that meeting. They would have been overwhelmed in their faith that the future Negro and especially the future Baptist church have a most brilliant opportunity. That prophecy "Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hand unto God and Princes shall come out of Egypt" seems to be in rapid process of fulfillment. Thirty Historic Big Zion Baptist Church, Pastored by Rev. David E. Overs, D Historic Big Zion Baptist Church, Denver, Col., one of the finest equipped Negro church edifices in the country. Pastored by Rev. David E. Overs, D. D., who is one of the leading men of the Baptist Forces of the U. S. four states and the province of Canada, inspired by the call of that awe inspiring young man, Dr. H. A. Boyd sent up the cream of the church to co-operate and plan for a greater and more efficient Sunday School Department and therefore a more egestive administration of church affairs. The Congress is an indispensable organization and more than any other organization of our church life demonstrates the real vitality in our much loved denomination. Falling From Grace a Delusion. "My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow me, and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish. Neither shall any man pluck them out of my man. My father which gave them me is greater than all and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand, I and my Father are one. John 10th, 27th, 30th." The Editor of the People's Defender was just thinking whether our brethren who profess Christianity and who are advocates of Apostasy and persist in spreading the idea of falling from grace, had never read the above passage of scripture. Strange how any person could pretend to believe that the Bible is the book of God, that the Scriptures are really the revealed will of God to man, and that they were given by him and written by men inspired by the Holy Spirit; we say that it is strange how any body could hold that they accepted the Bible in its elirey as he word of God and hen ignore the plain teaching of the above passage and many other just as direct. Says the Text, "I give unto them, eternal life; they shall never perish. No man can pluck them out of my hand; no man can pluck them out of My Father's hand." We are of the opinion that the most important thing with every soul is to get into God's hand through Jesus Christ; then if God's character be such as implied in the Scriptures especially in the text all will be well. We suggest our "pedo" brethren read the Scriptures with a little clearer vision. —People's Defender. Dr. and Mrs. T. H.

Association, Pastor Big Zion Baptist Nashville real soon on his way to the meet in Atlanta, Ga., in September. Just Tig (Bull Pup Alias "Yaller God." "Tige," an untrained brindled bull dog, from time of birth was designated by his master as the "yaller dog." He was heavily blocked and chained and the gate was barred. But Tige wagged his tail."—Xcuse me Moss. Tige was trained, only to frighten strange beasts during the week days, yet before visitors on Sunday he was beaten because he failed to "shake hands" or to "sit up" when requested the master to do so. It simply could not be done by Tige at this time, so he was again chastised and doubly blocked because he "could do nothing and knew less." Tige, by some means learned not alone to "sit up" but to say "prayers" and to "count four", and more was the surprise of the master to find him walking upon his fore feet alone, dragging chain and all. He was locked within in the puppy house for this. At midnight Tige hears a conflict between the people and the neighbors on one side and manarunds upon the D. Denver, Col., one of the finest equipped Ne D. D., who is one of the leading men of the other. In a moment his sleek brindled neck became lipe into an inverted scrubbing brush—burting puppy house door, he almost flew through the new half-open gate. Singling out the enemy, he "up and at em," and left mighty scars behind (either sense). For which service he was given nice bones and even liver by the neighbors, and patuted upon the neck and neck he muscled but also his legs were short and slightly benched, his head large and round with square jaws and all set to a short thick brindled body, it was still remembered that he was only a "yaller dog." And soon the head patting became head punching; the neck rubbing became neck squeezing and the feeding nours were sadly neglected. Poor Tige was starving! If he waggled his tail, he got a kick for being noisy, and his barking made him a "vicious brute." He hears other dogs barking within the house of the liver givers: good watch dogs, trail dogs Y. M.

He was one of Nashville's old Pioneers, useful in his church and community, he won a lasting friendship in the hearts of those who knew him.

Sporting Editor of the Nashville I think the time is about ripe when our home team should cut out their dirty baseball and rotten umpiring, and give the public clean sport. Of course there are plays made in games that are very close, but such decision hardly ever causes the spectators to hiss the umpire. But such baseball as Mr. Stratton pulled off in the 7th and 8th innings of the Indian game Sunday, the 17th, did not show that he was a real sportsman and a lover of baseball. Before the eyes of about 500 spectators Mr. Stratton forgot himself and thought he was in a prize ring, and had heard that he deliberately ran into the Indian 2nd baseman and jammed both fists into his chest. In any other league game this player would have been banished from the field with a $5 or $10 fine to play. Such playing as that will not entice good visiting teams to our city, but will kill the sporting game. I have played on some of the best teams in the city and also know the game. Black Sox Pennant Chasers The Black Sox took a higher lead in the pennant race by defeating the Nationals on last Sunday, June the 24th. There was a large crowd out to see if the agents that Manager Ellison had hired to fool the Black Sox out made a success of which they truly did. He had that $5,000 machine out but Stratton's Black Sox sore it out. Moorman of the Sox pitched his first game this season and did fine work for his teammates. but was not ye in mid-umsmer form. Not a score was made on him until the second two loafed balls which went to the center garden netted the Nationals 3 runs. Then Stratton received Moorman and finished the game. Webster was driven from the mound in the third and Meret took his part and pitched in big league style. The feature of the game was Carpenter's home run.

(Continued from Page 1.) the accommodations which the Association affords. True enough the press will be expected now as never before to sing the praises of the Association when it merits, praise, but friends must talk about what is offered in season and out. The Y. M. C. A. is now one of Nashville's institutions. It will reflect credit or discredit in proportion to the interest manifest by the local citizens. When an association of any community succeeds in performing its function, it reaffirms the value of the community and the efficiency of its citizens as a whole. If it fails in its mission, then it reflects an abnormal condition of the community life and spirit. The Association movement has stood the acid test for quite three quarters of a century in practically all Christendom. It is a credit, it is a high compliment to a modern community to say that its Association keeps step with the leading business and institutions of the city. Where this is done it invigorates not only the aggressive and progressive spirit of the community as a whole, but of the women, now is the time to show what business or higher sensibilities. Now opportunity is knocking at your door as never before. Increase your efficiency by taking advantage of all that the Association affords, and then help make provision for still further advantages. Join the Association today. WORK ON $150.00 Y. M. C. A. FOR A BEGIN BEGIN (Continued from Page 1.)

Meharry Graduates Make a Good Showing Before the Examining Board. The annual examination for license to practice medicine and surgery was held in Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville, Tenn., on the 15th and 16th, inst. 185 applicants appeared before the examiners for license to practice chosen profession. 125 of this number were enrolled in Nashville and 62 of these were colored, majority graduates from the Meharry Medical College. Dr. J. L. Leach and Dr. Augustine McNoughon, two prominent colored physicians of Nashville, served as monitors. Dr Leach having served in this same capacity for the last four years and this same annual each year comes as a result of efficient and satisfactory service rendered during past examinations. Dr. McNoughton, another young promising physician, came about his appointment through Dr. Leach and his first service was very satisfactory. in speaking of the examination Dr. Benj. L. Simmons said, "We regard the examination one of the best we have held since our connection with the Board. The conduct of the Meharry boys and the colored boys in our school is everything to be expected of well-trained men. We regard our colored monitors almost indispensable. I hope every applicant will make his licenses, the war is on and qualified doctors are going to be in demand. CARS EVERY 10 MINUTES Notice.

Business of importance to be discussed. THE CALL OF THE PRESIDENT TO THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS OF AMERICA. To the Officers, Teachers and Scholars are invited Sunday School to the United States; please: United States of America. The present insistent call of our beloved country must be heard and answered by every citizen of the United States in proportion to his or her power and honor. Many citizens will render their aid by force of arms on the battlefield while others will make the nation strong by their patriotic gifts and support to the common cause. It is therefore highly fitting that the Sunday schools of the nation should observe a special patriotic day and on this occasion should make a special contribution to the American Red Cross for the alleviation of the suffering entailed by the prosecution of the present war. It is my earnest hope that your generosity must be unstinted in this the hour of the nation's need and that this special contribution to the understanding of the cause for which our beloved land now contends. WOODROW WILSON. In response to the President's appeal, every Sunday school throughout the length and breadth of the Union should observe Sunday, July 1st, as American Red Cross Day. Every member, young and old, should contribute to the limit of his ability to this great organization that is to care for our American soldiers, and to help them. This is a worthy cause and we feel no church or Sunday school would do too much if the entire donation of the school was given to this occasion July 1st. Even the Cradle Roll, Primary, Kindergarten and Adults can add a bit to the contributions of the Red Cross and in that way help wonderfully in alleviating the surrections and pains among the soldiers upon the battlefields of Europe. Let us do Murfreesboro Sentinel. THE RED CROSS SOCIETY. In other columns of the Sentinel we are printing much in regard to the Red Cross Movement, but yet there are many of our readers who have not and will not see and understand the working and urgent need of this Society. Think of the man who rushes forth to meet an armed toe without the slightest interest in his personal safety. He rushes amid shot and snail without fear of faltering. Here we recall the very striking words of the young American poet Alan Seger, who joined the Foreign Legion or France and fought in the French army almost from the beginning of the world war until recently when he received mortal wounds in a charge upon the village of Belloen-sanere. in a letter to his mother—a letter which some one has said may live longer than his poetry—after exhorting her to be proud like a Spartan mother, in case he did not return to her, and to regard it as her contribution to a righteous cause, also showing that if it should fail to her she to make such a contribution she would be in so far as she would be willing and should be correspondingly proud, he is quoted as saying: "Death is nothing terrible after all. It may mean something more wonderful than life. It cannot possibly mean anything worse to the good soldier." Can you imagine the hand and presence of a Red Cross nurse, the services of a Red Cross physician, the sheltering of a Red Cross hospital and the transportation of a Red Cross ambulance to have been at the disposal of this solitary man. He returned to that dear mother once again. That alone would have been worth many times the value of all our contributions saying nothing of the hundreds and thousands of similar incidences of which could be given. This and even more the Red Cross stands for. To pay for medical aid, housing and administering this medical treatment of sentinel and to alleviate the sufferings of those who have been so unfortunate as to have fallen victim to the dreadful foe of the opposing enemy. Then if you can't go, give. —Murrreesboro sentinel. THE PRESIDENT'S CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS The President of the United States has issued a proclamation calling for 70,000 volunteers for the regular army. He has set aside or designated the period from June 23 to June 30 as recruiting week. Every male citizen unmarried between the ages of 18 and 40 is eligible. It is now we urge upon the young colored Americans who have no dependents and who are not engaged in some pursuit of the law. From the maintenance of a large family to answer the President's call and enlist in order that the old flag, though it has been in many a fix since 1776, may never touch the ground. THE FOOT PATH TO PEACE. To be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and play and to look up at the stars; to be satisfied with your possessions but not content with yourself until you have made the best of them; to despise nothing in the world except falsehood and meanness and fear nothing except cowardice; to be governed by your admirations rather than by your disgusts; to covet nothing is your desire; to be kindness of heart and gentleness of mind; to think seldom of your enemies, often of your friends and every day of Christ; and to spend as much time as you can with body and spirit in God's out-of-doors—these are little guide posts on the foot path of peace.
