In response to a letter from Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University, Secretary Baker issued a statement, July 7, to the effect that Col. Young has been restored to active duty. The Miller letter to the secretary transmitted the complaint of Attorney Charles S. Gordon of Los Angeles, which represented the possibility of injustice being done Col. Young at the present time. The correspondence follows:
My Dear Prof. Miller:
Through you to the students of Howard I desire to extend my congratulations on their success in procuring the training camp for Negro officers at Des Moines. Considering all the circumstances and conditions existing in our country today, it certainly was a great victory of the students of Howard for our race. Since they have done so well in that matter, I am inclined to invoke their aid in an effort originating with me, for a greater victory along the same line.
You perhaps have already heard that Captain Davis, of the Ninth Cavalry, has been sent to the Phillipines with his Cavalry in spite of his request for permission to remain and render service with the colored soldiers in France. You perhaps also know that Lieut. Col. Young has been ordered to Presidio, our army hospital, or medical observation and Col. Young, according to my investigation, enjoying the best treatment, in spite of the fact that he is of his life. He must be to be disposition, the part of the ministration to either isolate our regular commissioned army officers, or put them on the retired list, and it would be contrary to the time honored custom and precedent of the War Department, to order commissioned officers into the army hospital, and then permit them to come out of that hospital, except on the retired list. It is the subject of men well informed on the subject, in this locality, that Col. Gordon for the purpose of government for the purpose of preventing his further advancement in the army, and his actual participation in the present war.
You remember that the only three commissioned officers in the regular army, aside from the army chaplain are Col. Young, Capt. Davis, now en route to the Philippines, and Capt. Green, stationed at Liberia, all of whom ought to be considered in the organization of the separate division of commissioned officers organized. But it now appears that neither of these officers will, in any way, be connected or associated with that division. It would certainly be as cowardly an act on our part to sit idly by and submit, without protest, to the retirement of Young, as it will be on the part of the War Department, through its Army hospital, which brings it to me. I am well informed that atlantic Ohio senator protested vigorously against the department's order of Davis to the Philippines, but of course, without avail. isn't there some method which can be pursued in behalf of our colored commissioned officers which would not embarrass them on the records of the war department? CHARLES S. DARDEN. In transmitting this letter Prof. Miller said: The Secretary of War, Washington, D.C. My Dear Sir: I beg leave to submit the enclosed complaint against the War Department. I am indisposed to believe that any department of the government of the United States would place a stumbling block in the way of the patriotism of the people of the country, hope that the War Department, through an authorized statement, will set at rest all such suspicions as are contained in the enclosed communication.
July 9, 1974 KELLY MILLER
In response to Dean Miller's letter on July 7, the War Department issued the following statement: Dear Dean Miller:
I have received your note of July 5, and return herewith the complaint which you enclosed. I am very happy to tell you that the work at Des Moines Camp is progressing remarkably well, and the reports I have from it are very good. The spirit of the men is fine, and apparently this enclosure is a very good deal of good, both to the country and to the men involved.
Your correspondent write chiefly concerning Lieut. Col. Young, a colored officer of the regular army and a graduate of West Point, and a man with a fine record for service in the army. Some time ago a board of officers passed upon his health and found him completely incapacitated for service; not obviously and visibly, but because, unfortunate, of their finding that he was afflicted with a cancer, he was given the good news that it was Bright's disease. The report of the board was approved by the surgeon general, but in view of the fact that Col. Young's record

is a long and honorable one, and the government needs officers of his rank and ability, it was directed that another board be convened to re-examine the question so as to make quite sure that there could not be any error in the matter. I have directed that the report of the board be returned to me personally before being acted upon, not because I find myself able to believe that any prejudice would produce the deep dishonor of a false report: but because I want to be able to give the assurance to all who inquire that I have given my own personal thought and attention to this case, in which so many are interested.
I hope the board will find Col. Young still able to perform active duty. In the meantime, I have directed that he be restored to active duty, and have at least the hope of being able to have his assistance for the present.
Cordially yours,
NEWTON D. BAKER,
Secretary of War.
DR. J. L. LEACH TO EXAMINE COI
ORED DRAFT FOR NASHVILLE
AND DAVIDSON COUNTY.
The news of the contemplated plans of having the colored drafts of Nashville and Davidson County examined by a member of the race is indeed gratifying to the many thousands of colored people in the Nashville and Davidson County.
This is just another step which demonstrates that fact that Gov. Tom C. Rye is looking after the interest of
First Lieutenant J. L. Leach, Medica Reserve Corps U. S. Army.
all the people in Tennessee alike. It is also commendable to note with what favor the members of the various Boards took to the suggestion. While the plan is not complete, it is being worked out by the members of the various Boards and Dr. Leach, whom the Governor will commission to do the work. Dr. Leach has the endorsement of the members of each Board and when the plan is complete it is expected that he will serve all the Board in turn. This honor comes to Dr. Leach owing to his high standing in the community and his recent commission as First Lieutenant in the Medical Reserve Corps U. S. Army. It is hoped to have all the colored drafts from the various Boards to the Board. It is hoped that M. C. A. where Dr. Leach and perhaps another member of the Examination Board will make the examination and the papers will be turned over to the doctor in charge of the Board. If the draft claims exemption he will then be further examined and the Board as a body will pass upon the merit of the case. At this writing the exact date of the draft cannot be named owing to the states failing to report their readiness. Dr. Leach's appointment to this important place marks another step in his already brilliant career Nashville is proud of her sons.

Memoriam.
In memory of Mr. Frank David Capers who departed this life one month ago today in Toledo, Ohio.
We do not know what it is—this sleep so deep and still—but this we know, that if they, our loved and dead, could come to us and ask, "What is life?" Not one of us could tell, for life is a mystery as deep as even death can be, yet how dear it is to us.
He has finished his work, and his journey is over.
The war is accomplished, the triumph begun;
He laid down his armor beside the cold river.

DEATH OF MRS. PANNIE REY-
NOLDS.
On last Wednesday the Death Angle summoned Mrs. Fannie Reynolds, wife of Mr. Henry Reynolds, of Fourteenth Ave. S, to lay aside her earthly labs and accompany him to her heavenly home to eternal rest. Mrs. Reynolds was in the pursuit of one of her most pleasurable duties, that of crocheting, when the angel came. The summons was so sudden that no one had knowledge of it. She passed suddenly, but peacefully away. This sudden taking away was a great shock to her relatives as well as to her host of friends.
Mrs. Reynolds was an ardent member of Clark Memorial Chapel where she faithfully and cheerfully performed her every duty. She was a consistent and faithful Christian and an untiring worker for her church. She has been president of the Ladies

Mrs. Reynolds was a most lovable woman and was loved by a host of people. She was as active in social life as in the church and was president of the Lilly of Valley Art Club. The members of this Club as well as those of the Ladies' Guild, attended the funeral in a body. The sadiction of Clark Chapel was filled with a concourse of sorrowful friends who are loathe to see up their dear coworker, but who to show in humble submission the will of Him who does it. Offering all things well. A large offering of flowers attested to love of friends and the esteem in which she was held. She leaves to mourn her "going home," a loving husband, three brothers, one sister and a host of other relatives and friends.

BEAUTY HINTS.
In order to be beautiful one must be clean.
Before retiring at night bath the face waer in which oatmeal has been soaked.
Borax will whiten the hands.
If colors are not becoming to your complexion, do not wear them, even if they are all the rage.
Find the style of dress that is most becoming to you and stick to it.
Dordeorants are to be had at all the drug stores. If troubled prespiration of order secure at bottle.
Dieting will often help an ugly skin.
Every woman has a natural set of pearls. Take care of them. Have your dentist go over them for you occasionally. It will pay in the end.
Smile and keep age away. If you have not learned that habit, start cultivating it now.
Large women should never wear stripes.

DEATH OF PROF. J. M. WINDROW
OF MURFREESBORO, TENN.
Murrtresboro, July 15—Special to the Globe.—Prof. James Madison Windrow was born Jan. 2nd 1859 and departed this life July 14th 1917 at 1 p.m. age 85 years 6 months and 12 days. He was a good honest Christian gentleman. Professed a love in Christ 1882 and joined the Missionary Baptist Church, was baptised by Rev. William Haynes, was educated at Roger Williams University, and married Mrs. Dolores Searle, Oakland in 1858, had a faithful, devoted husband nearly 22 years, during which time he taught school for more than 20 years, after which he was engaged in the grocery business 11 years, and was an upright honest merchant serving his customers faithfully and cheerfully. He was beloved my white and black, rich and poor. No hungry beggar passed his door unnoticed. His life was spent for his people. He was active in church and social circles, and his music second to none. He leaves loving and affectionate sister, a dear mother, a loving sister, a step father, an uncle and several cousins, also many other relatives to mourn his loss.
He said he wanted to sing prasles to God, but was too weak but he was going to join the Heavenly Choir. He said he was so happy, and too, there would be no sorrow there. He was beloved by all who knew him, and his

door stood ajar for friends and strangers alike, regardless of conditions. He was sought and hunted for when one was in trouble and very few were ever turned away without his compassion. This town has lost one of its greatest men and citizens of today and may God bless us with another like him, but we fear his place will not be filled.
One of the largest and most impressive funerals ever held in Murfreesboro among Negroes, was that of Prof. J. M. Windrow, which was conducted at Key's Memorial M. E. Church last Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
The funeral services were conducted by Revs. R. T. Weatherby of North Carolina, J. H. Thompson of Murfreesboro and Wm. Haynes of Nashville.
The life of this good and much be loved Christian gentleman was beautifully portrayed by each of these prominent divines.
Rev. Weatherby said if anyone living, knew Prof. Windrow, he did, because of the close relationship that had existed between them since their first acquaintance several years ago. Rev. Weatherby is a fluent speaker and from the beginning to the end of his discourse, the vast audience was deeply interested.
In short, he said that the good deeds of this broad hearted man were too numerous to mention for his had been a life lived for others.
Rev. William Haynes next spoke of the life of Prof. Windrow from his boyhood up to the present day.
He said he became interested in "Jim" as he called him when quite a boy, carried him to Roger Williams and made it possible for him to receive his education. Some years after he was converted and baptized under his pastorate; he said he also performed the marriage ceremony which united him and Mrs. Delorah Scales Copeland into holy matrimony.
Rev. Haynes paid many loving tributes to the beautiful life of this good man and said he not only loved him as a true friend, but as a near rea

Smyrna, Tenn.—After being in session for five days the Baptist forces of the state adjourned their sessions here last Sunday with a big educational rally held at the First Baptist Church on Sunday afternoon. Many records were broken during the week for real work accomplished. The Missionary Baptist State Convention through its various departments and reports showed that the gigantic task begun last year at Columbia was reaching a successful conclusion. One of the biggest features of the whole convention was the report on the purchase of the Theological Seminary and Training School, which has just been secured and located in Ashville, the department of denominational work in a part on the program and was well represented.
The Woman's Auxiliary, which held its sessions in a neighboring church, the B. Y. P. U. and Sunday School forces, together with the Laymen's Department of the State were all represented. The Convention was inspired as never before when West Tennessee, headed by a big delegation from the Cumberland River, West Tennessee and Kentucky Association, bringing thirty or more churches, reported to the Convention for enrollment. Some of the leading men of the western part of the state are identified with this association. One of the most interesting features of the whole meeting was Smyrna's big hearted and royal reception given to the delegates. Every home for miles around was put at the disposal of the visiting messengers and each service became more and more inspiring and interesting. On Sunday morning a large and enthusiastic delegation came down from Nashville to spend the day. Some came by train and others in automobiles. It was agreed so it was learned, that the next session of the convention is to be held in Clarksville, Tenn. This invitation was presented immediately after the big association from western part with Missionary Baptist State Convention. The address delivered by the Rev. R. H. Boyd on Sunday afternoon on the Rising Progress of the Negro Baptists was a splendid contribution to the accomplishments of his denomination. The following officers were elected.
tive and considered his place among the mourners.
Many beautiful hymns were sung by the choir of which Prof. Widrow was director up to the time of his death which position he filled with honor as he was an accomplished musician.
One of the most touching incidents connected with the funeral was the pathetic solo sung by Miss Salene McGavock of Nashville. The most proficient white genelemen of Murfreesboro occupied one side of the church which had been reserved for them. The Mayor, Ex-Mayor and Judge were included in this number, each of whom made interesting talks on the life and character of Prof Wind row as a citizen, and with their love and esteem for him they seemed to lose sight of color, and simply spoke of him as a true Christian gentleman, and as a loyal American citizen.
In short they left nothing unsaid that would lift this noble man to the highest pinnacle of esteem.
Hon. J. C. Napier, ex-Register of U. S. Treasury made an interesting talk in regaras of the one true friendship that he had with him and Prof. Widrow. He said the race had lost a great man. A man who was not only prominent in the business world but who took the lead in every move that stood for the uplift of his people, soially, morally and intellectually.
The church was filled to its greatest capacity. Every seat was taken and even standing room was at a premium. The floral offerings were numerous, beautiful and extravagantly elaborate. Many of them were given by the most prominent white families of Murfreesboro. Many out of town people attended this funeral.
Prominent among those who went from Nashville were Hon. and Mrs. J. C. Napier, Dr. Alonzo Napier, Mr. C. N. Langston, Dr. and Mrs. F. A. Stewart, daughter and son and Miss Compton, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Bostie, who are related to Prof. Windrow and Dr. and Mrs. Miller.
The active pall-bearers were Messrs Preston Scales, Ben E. Calrence Jordan, Sercy Scales, Earl Scales and Wm. Redmond, all nephews of Prof. Windrow.
Honorary pall-bearers were Messrs Joe Alexander, Walter Page, James Smith, George Ransom, Luke Murphy, I. T. Oaff.
Mr. Preston Scales, the prominent colored undertaker of Murfreesboro had the charge in charge.
Says Drink Water If You Wish to Grow Fat and Plump
THIN MEN AND WOMEN
Do You Want to Get Fat and Be Strong?
The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weight is that they insist on drugging their stomach on stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing on useless "flesh creams," or following some foolish physical culture stunt while the real cause of thinness goes untouched. You cannot get fat until your digestive tract properly assimilates the food you eat. Drink a glass of water four or five times a day and take the following preparation known to be reliable druggists almost everywhere, which seemingly embodies the missing elements needed by the digestive organs to help them convert food into rich, fat-laden blood. This preparation is called toonine, and much remarakable testimony is given as to its successful use in flesh building. Tonoline which comes in the form of a small non-injurious tablet, taken at meals and mixed with the digesting food, tends to prepare fat, flesh and muscle building elements so that the blood can readily accept and carry them to the starved portion of the body. You can readily picture the transformation that additional and previously taking flesh making material shouldering to your cheeks, filling out hollows about your neck shoulders and bust disappearing, and your taking on from 15 to 30 pounds of solid healthy flesh tonoline is harmless, inexpensive. All druggists have it and are more tolerated to refund your money if weight increase is not obtained as per the guarantee found in each large package.
language.
Caution: -tonline is recommended only as a fish builder and while excellent results in cases of nervous indigestion, etc. have been reported, care should be taken about it unless a gain of weight is desired.

SOUTH PITTSBURG
ADMINISTRATION ENDORSED BY NASHVILLE DELEGATION.
Last Meeting Before Grand Lodge
Well Attended.
The last meeting of the Nashville delegation to the Grand Lodge K. of P. was held Tuesday night at the Pythian Temple, Knight A. W. Fite presided during the session, From the beginning to the end the meeting was exceedingly lively.
The measures discussed proved to be of prime importance insofar as the burial department of the order is concerned.
Resolutions were drafted to be presented to the grand lodge and one to be presented to the Supreme Lodge thru the Supreme Representatives.
The arrangements for caring for the representatives have been completed. Each day brings additional applications for room and board at the Y. M. C. A. building. The Y. M. C. A. Secy. is simply waiting for the time to come, he is ready to serve the delegates.
Invitation is extended to the delegates to make free use of the Y. M. C. A. building, its lobby, reception rooms, and parlors for committee meetings and conferences. The Committee on resolutions brought in a fine report which was adopted after a great debate indulged in by Knights' Foster, Porter, Johnson Moore and others. Knight J. B. Battle again proved a valuable asset to the delegation by his timely remarks. One of the most pleasing aspects of the meeting was the delegations endorsement of the administration. This is considered quite a compliment and no doubt will be highly appreciated by the officers and members of the grand lodge. It was pointed out that the plans and purposes of the present administration were such as to excite the utilization of every member of the order. The creation and operation of the Burial Bureau was the first step in the line of progress. This has proven such a success that even the bitterest opposition has been broken down.
Pride in the military department brought about a tax of 2 cents per month per member, and now the membership rejoices that accompanies from Tennessee will be in the line of march at St. Louis as well equipped as any other body of men who may appear in that great parade during the Supreme session in August. Again it was pointed out that the purchase of the splendid property on on the corner of 4th Ave., and Cedar St., for Temple purposes was the greatest effort ever put forth by the administration and that this of itself was enough to inspire the delegation to go on record as being in full accord with the plans and purposes of the administration. The members of the Company, the treasurer by Mr. F. O. Sayers, manager of the Eureka Ice Cream Company. As is well known, Mr. Sawyers is interested in the order and never fails to do its members a kindness at any time. The delegation tendered the Company a vote of thanks.
The representatives to the Supreme Lodge from Florida and Georgia have been in communication with the Deputy Grand Chancellor A. W. Fite, concerning the route to St. Louis. It has been definitely settled that these bodies will meet the Tennessee delegations at Chattanooga, Nashville and Martin. Col. A. Franklin Steward of the 3rd Ga., Reg. U. R. K. of K. has given Grand Deputy Fite the assurance of traveling with the Tennessee delegation, using the scenic Dicot Flyer Route. Much speculation has been indulged in as to who will be present at the coming grand session. It is true that death has entered our ranks and many of those who have visited the Grand Lodge from time to time will be absent, but we are reasonably certain that from East Tennessee, W. L. Reeves of

CARD OF THANKS.
Mrs. Lizzie Porter Stevenson died
at her home, 922 11th Ave. N., July
16, 1917.
We wish to thank our many friends
for tender kindness shown us during
our sister's illness and at her
death.
We also thank our friends who so
kindly remembered us with floral
designs.
Sad indeed was the death of our sister and friend, Mrs. Lilly Whitley, a faithful member of the M. E. Church. She was a loyal member for thirty years and was fifty-four years of age. She was true to every call. The church has lost a true and faithful friend, and a hard to fill. She leaves three sons, three daughters and several grandchildren and a host of friends both white and colored. The funeral was attended at the church by the pastor and her remains were laid to rest in the Dick Town Cemetery. Many out of town friends also attended the funeral. Sunday was a great day, with children held a hard if rainy, but it was gladly received if rain be so hot and dry for several days. Our Fourth Quarterly Conference will convene August the 11th, 12th. Each member is asked to pay up their one dollar money.
TEACHERS TO MEET IN NEW ORLEANS.
New Orleans, La., July 16, 1917. Those who attend the Fourteenth annual Session of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools at New Orleans, La., July 25 to 29, will have an opportunity to come into direct contract with valuable historic data as well as an opportunity to see three of the leading-educational Institutions for Negroes in the South. It was here at New Orleans that the transfer of the Louisiana Province was made to the United States in 1803. The school was located in which and the table around which the agreement was made can be sum by visitors. The spot on which the Battle of New Orleans was fought by Jackson, in which the Negroes took an important part, is of interest to visitors from all sections of the country. The old French market still has its attractions.
The three Institutions for the education of the Negroes of the South are Straight University, which is fostered by the American Missionary Association; the New Orleans University, under the direction of the Freedman's Ald Society, and Xavier College, under the auspices of the Catholic Church, which occupies the position and in other respects the place of the former Southern University which has been removed to Baton Rouge. Leland University, which for many years was under the direction of the American Baptist Home Missionary Society and the site of the University, has been recently removed to Akron University. This school has also figured greatly in the educational history of Louisiana.
As to the attendance at the session to be held here, reports come to us that the Mississippi State Teachers' Association, which held its meeting last week, voted to come in two special car parties. Texas will also have its

AUTO PARTY TO MAMMOTH CAVE.
One of the most enjoyable excursions of the season was the Auto Party to Mammoth Cave, KY, of which Rev. and Mrs. H. A. Boyd have the hostess. The party of seven left the city in Mr. Boyd's car about twelve o'clock Saturday night. They arrived at the Cave at twelve o'clock Sunday having travelled one hundred and ten miles.
The party passed through Goodletville, Shakertown, Springfield, Auburn, Adairsville, Russellville, Bowling Green, Glasgow Junction, and "Cave City. Mammoth Cave itself is one of the seven wonders of the world. The main avenue of the cave is sixty feet high, forty-two feet wide and four miles long. This avenue is called the Cave River, and it was in 189 at which a hunter chased a bear into its opening, however it was in 1812 that speculators discovered that it contained valuable mineral deposits and for a number of years men and oxen were busy mining these products. The old vats, leached soil and the water and alkali pipes are still to be seen. The pipes are very interesting being made of wooden logs with the inside drilled out. There are two rivers in the Cave. Echo River and the River Styx. Pensacola Avenue and Slipper Elm Street are also very in the valley, and the river travels around the river Styx till joins Echo River is a very interesting price of crude carventry.
Dinner was served in the Park Reserve, after the party had gone through the Cave. The journey consumed about four hours. The return trip was made Sunday night, the party reaching the city at four o'clock. Aside from Rev and Mrs. Boyd, in the party were Misses Susie Crawley and Marie

"STAT MAGNI NOMINIS UMBRA."
Truly the status quo of the Negroes of Nashville, may be summed up by the above quotation. Of the histories of the institutions in the city, whose influences have established this accredited status, perhaps the history of the Colored Branch of the Y. M. C. A. because of the brevity of its service and the wholesome influence created, will prove the most interesting for discussion. Nashville needed a Y. M. C. A. for the Negro men of Nashville long before the war was opened in its midst. Not that the Negroes have not grown to successful manhood, without the institution, but that the percentage of those who have not grown to successful manhood might be lessened. Retrospection is the attitude of a declining people. Virile races look forward.
Only a few decades ago, our people were assiduously training the girls and women of the race. In our schools, at the present time, the female outnumbers the male about three to one. When this woeful condition of affairs was brought to the attention of the leaders, they contended that the number of females born outnumbered the males. For a time this explanation suffaced, till mothers realized that after settin gasie the appointed number of daughters, who might reasonably be expected to die old maids, there were still three trained girls to one trained by. The laws of the land allow only one wife to a man. Upon investigation, however, it was discovered that the doubtful places of amusement, street corners and pool rooms were filled with men and young boys. Of course, these males could not be selected as husbands for these trained females by their ambitious parents.
In many cases however, the trained females thought differently and married these undesirable men. Even some of the females who according to statistical reconitions, should have died inceibate, married also.
"Temporal mutantur, et nos mutamur in illis" Educators and Social Uplift Workers are emphatically declaring that in order to maintain the social standard, the males must be trained as well as the females.
You will notice that we have used the word "trained." We did not use the word "educate" because to us the words have different meanings. We are primitive enough to believe that you can educate and not train. We believe that training must be effective but he can not be effective with out education. Education can be of the head only, but training must include the head, heart and hand.
The Colored Men's Branch of the Y. M. C. A. is a monument to Right Living, the outcome of unselfish effort. The first campaign held by the Colored forces of the city demonstrated the calibre of the men of Nashville. Their efforts were not accustomed by selfishness, but they gave $1,000 each, one has sons. One has died since that time leaving to posterity no issue. They, themselves,
[Image of a woman with dark hair and a white dress, facing slightly to the right.]
will certainly reap no rich harvest from the Institution. Of the three who remain, one has passed the allotted three score and ten mark. The conclusion reached therefore, from the given premises is: that there are men of the race, the motto of whose lives is: Salus populi supreme est lex. I am a Negro consanguinity. To me the greatest asset of the race is its young men. Every young man in Nashville should own a membership card to the Y. M. C. A. If the young men of your immediate family are thoughtless, and do not yet realize the benefit to be derived from such a card, you, as his mother, sister or sweetheart, should present him with one. A membership card costing $5.00 if paid cash, would make a lovely Christmas gift. Boys and young men are naturally restless. There is a stupendous amount of superfluous energy that must be expended. The Y. M. C. A. can teach them the right way of expending that energy.
When remodeled the Nashville Y. M. C. A. for Negroes will be the finest in the country. Its success depends on the people of Nashville themselves. Insist that the young men of your acquaintance join the Association. By so doing you will be instrumental in shaping the destinies of the next generation. When time shall have whitened your hair and you must lay the burden that you are now carrying on the shoulders of the young men, you can sit complacently by and witness the birth of the next generation, assured of the fact that no ill can betide the offspring because the mothers and fathers have been trained morally, mentally and physically.
Mrs. Ammie Baines, very ageable, died at the residence of her daguhter, Mrs. Laura Young at Nashville. Her remains were brought here. She died in full triumph of the Lord. She

was a member of the Primitive Baptist Church, where her funeral was attended. Rev.] Boyd, Rev. W. M. Wilson officiating. She is survived by four sons, two daughters, several grand children and a host of friends. She was laid to rest in the Baines Cemetery. On last Monday night, Brother R. E. Hunt called the young people of M. Lebanon Baptist Church to raise money for the Christian Association, that is to raise money for the church. It was well taken, Officers, Brother P. E. Hunt, director, Mr. Henry Hunt, Jr., President. We organized in two clubs, one the Red Ribbon Club and the Blue Ribbon Club. Mr. Robert Moore, Captain of the Red Ribbon Club, Miss G. A. Woods, secretary, Mr. John Owens, treasurer, Mr. Sandy Pointer, Captain of the Blue Ribbon Club, Miss Irene Hunt, secretary, Mr. Joseph Moore, treasurer, Mr. Vatkins, governing secretary. The Laughing Dog Church had a sermon last Sunday evening by the pastor of the B. Crenshaw, and many were present. Collection extra good. The good Lord blessed us with such a good rain some days ago and our corn crops have taken on new life. If you want the news read the Globe.
Croyso are looking very promising now to be as late as they are. The Children's exercises were put off at Mt. Olive A. M. E. Church, until Sunday night, July 22nd. Miss Hannah Sherrill of Leigh Chapel is visiting her sister Salene Parker, this week, Mr. Burchett and Mr. William McLin of Viney Grove was the guest of Mr. William Alexander Sunday, Mr. Babe Winston's horse ran away with him Sunday night turned the buggy over and threw him and his wife into the ditch breaking the shafts. Neither Mr. Winston nor his wife were hurt. There will be a supper given at Mt. Carmel Hall on Friday, July 22nd and everybody is cordially invited to be with us. Everybody seems to be getting interested in the study ofetry with Germany. Some of our boys have been, hard to say all they hate about it is, they don't want to work and make a crop and then leave it. Should they have to go they will render the best service they possibly can give. Should the state furnish 30,000 soldiers, the old news boy will have to shoulder his gun too. See Wm. Alexander and get the Globe. The leading Negro journal in Tennessee.

On Sunday, Rev. H. P. Gordon took with him, his congregation to Cairo a little suburban town respondig to an invitation extended by the Rev. Sister Mitchell to join with her on that day. It being the day set apart for baptism. Early Sunday morning the town of Gallatin began stirring. Buggies, hacks and autos were seen dashing through the streets of Gallatin, all pulling in the direction of Cairo. The beautiful little church was soon filled, every seat being taken, and the yard and streets were crowded with anxious listeners. Cairo can boast of having the largest crowd ever gathered there. Promptly at 12 o'clock, services began. Devotion was conducted by Rev. H. P. Gordon. All joined in singing, "I Want to be a Christian" A oneness of spirit being visible to all. The Rev.

also a member of Ross lodge No. 69, K. P. having been Past Chancellor He was happily married to Miss Lucile Patterson in 1913, the day of his death being the fourth anniversary of their marriage. The entire community is in deepest sympathy with the family. This was shown by the many beautiful floral designs, and the large number that attended the funeral. The funeral was conducted from the first Baptist church, of which the deceased was a member. Revs McAdams and Gooch officiated. He was a devoted son and husband and loved by all who knew him. The interment was at Mt. Ararat cemetery. Mrs. Cordella Buchanan is very dangerously sick. All the absent children were sent for. All are here except Cleveland.

Mrs. M. A. Parker and two little sons sang a song that animated all, as it was so spiritual. Miss Alma Burkeen, the organist was up-to-date and well posted with the music.

Eat Less Meat And Take Kidneco If Kidneys Hurt
Says Kidneco Flushes Kidneys, Stopping Backache
Meat Forms Uric Acid, Which Excites Kidneys and Weekens Bladder
Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid in the meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked, get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backaches, acid stomach, constipation, peripheral liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kidneys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get a small box of kidneco from any druggist, take one tablet before each meal followed by a glass of water for a few days, and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous treatment is made from a formula of a specialist in the treatment of kidney trouble, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Kidneco can not injure anyone, and will be found a wonderfully effective remedy for all kidney fills. They are inexpensive and can be bought by the dozen at any drug store.

SOCIAL BAN FOR BOOZE
Booze has long been under moral han. During recent years business has been manifesting impatience with the wasteful economic consequences of booze. Now a majority of the states have shut down on the sale of alcohol and the nation is about to suspend its manufacture probably forever. To complete the conquest only one thing seems lacking. This is social disapproval.
Society has too long tolerated booze and the train of evils in its wake; has winked at violations of regulations designed to mitigate an admitted evil. Society has classified drunkenness as an amenable weakness; has treated intoxication as a joke. If booze is to be kept down, laws traced to keep it down must be regarded as good laws, and men who defy them in one way or another must be treated as bad men. If drunkenness is enough of an evil to warrant all the anti-booze legislation. It must be remembered that alcohol does not harm unless wrongly used. Good people must stop laughing at men who persist in getting "soused." There can be intrinsically funny about a case of poisoning. Only on the theory that booze is a poison and a harmful one can all the campaigning against it be justified. If a man who is drunk is suffering from the effects of a toxicagent there should be nothing in his plight to call for eubilitions of mirth. If there is anything funny in the fruits of whiskey guzzling, then there is something funny about any law that attempts to prevent whiskey guzzling. Previous prohibitory campaigns have failed through unwillingness of the average man to take them seriously. The present crusade, successful as it seems for the time, will fall likewise unless taken seriously by the great body of the public.
With state and federal laws combining to outlaw the sale and transportation of liquor, the opportunity for communities to become really dry is now much better than at any previous time. Alcohol can be snugged and sold illegally, just as opium is snuggled and sold. Alcohol can be got by illegal manufacture, even more readily, of course. The degree in which this illegal traffic can be carried on in any community must depend upon the degree of tolerance shown it by the good people of the community. Good people form a large majority of every community. If the majority wants the laws enforced strictly, officers will assure every ounce of their power to that end. Otherwise they will lose their offices.
If business and society make it plain that they have no use for the drinker, and neither sympathy nor smiles for the drunkard, the demand for "moonshine" or smuggled booze will tail off so materially as to threaten the bootlegger with extinction in the most effective way, namely, because the profits of his trade will become too small to warrant him in taking the chances involved. It would be very poor economy to let the present experiment with bone dry prohibition pass until there has been a plain demonstration that sustained community support of the letter and spirit of the law is sufficient to make it effective.
The confirmed victim of the hooze habit is entitled to more than sympathy from the public. He is entitled to help. He has a disease that may be cured. The chronic cases can be kept in public institutions, for in most instances the public would have to support the helpful ones in any case. To others the public can assure absence of temptation and drastic punishment for disregard of law. Above all things, let there be no laughing over evasions of law, no laughing at men in high or low station who al-
low their appetites to run away with their brains and their legs. Let us all take our bone dry status seriously and try to make the most of it. And let those of us who can take it or let it alone, let it alone for the sake of our weaker brothers.
MISTAKEN. THAT'S ALL
Savoyard is a very brilliant newspaper paper man, who is the Washington correspondent for a number of journals throughout the United States. But when it comes to writing something about the Negro, he just simply can't lay his prejudice aside. He has no use for a professional Negro who has common and self-respect. He loathes the black man who has culture and refinement, but he rather dotes up the hat-in-his-hand Negro who stands for nothing but slothfulness and a crap game.
Savoyard says, the sole ambition of the educated Negro is social equality. This old bugear has been the shibboleth and bread-winner for such writers as Savoyard for the last half of a century. Savoyard says Fred Moore of the New York Age is disciple of social equality. We hold no brief for the New York Age, but we have been one of its readers for years and years, and have never seen where the Age advocated any such thing.
Social equality is a thing that is self-regulating. No Negro desires it, no white man desires it. To say that the Negro is leaving the South and going North and East for the enjoyment of social equality is not true, and Savoyard and his kind know it is not true. The Negro is leaving the South because he is persecuted by petty officials, because of inadequate school facilities, because of low wages paid. That's all there is to it. There are no army of labor agents seeking him. Nd great propaganda of speakers advocating migration, no circulars sent out from the North promising social equality. It is simply that the Negro wants to better his condition; wants better treatment, better wages and better housing conditions.
WHAT THE LADIES DID
WHAT THE LADIES DID.
Nashville, Tenn., July 17, 1917.
Editor Nashville Globe:
In answer to the query of Mr Price as to what our women are in regard regarding the treatment of colored patrons in the transfer station, we wish to state that at a recent meeting of the City Federation of Colored Women a committee was appointed to see the officials of the Street Railway Company and lay before them our grievances. We have visited the office or this company. The vice president received the committee and promised us that an adjustment of the matter of seating colored patrons would be made at an early date. That seats would be provided our people on the north side to the left of the seats already in the central part of the station. He asked, in the name of the company, that we exercise patience, as the matter would receive attention as soon as possible.
Committee—Mrs. P. R. Burrs, Dr.
M. E. Coleman, Mrs. W. O. Tate.
OUR SCHOOLS
School facilities in East Nashville for Negroes are wholly insufficient. Meiks School is inadequate to care for the hundreds of Negro children who are entitled to school privileges. Now is the time for our public-spirited citizens to call the attention of the Board of Education to this matter. How can the authorities know we desire betterment in our schools if we don't ask? Perhaps all are satisfied with the conditions as they exist. If you wish better educational advantages for your children, let the fact be known. Maybe, some of our ministers will stop a picnic or a rally long enough to call the attention of their flocks to this state of our schools. Nashville needs more schools' for her Negro children. Nashville needs a longer course of study.
---
The women, God bless 'em, went to the street car people with a grievance, as to the seats in the transfer station, and were assured that the matter would be arranged to the satisfaction of all concerned. You may depend upon the women folk to go right after what they want.
A white store-keeper out on Jefferson street raised the dickens because a street car conductor asked her to move up front in order that colored passengers might have seats. Now this store-keeper subsists solely upon the patronage of Negroes. A hint to the wise is sufficient.
There should be a supervisor of writing and drawing for the Negro pupils of the City Public Schools. Let's see which of our civic organizations will appoint a committee to approach the Board of Education and lay the matter before that august body.
---
No man need congratulate himself on the girl he can get nowadays, but he had better praise the girl who is morally strong enough not to be gotten, be he beautiful or as ugly as a mud fence. That's where the praise should go.
We trust our Negro civic organizations will cease trying to master the obscure problems and get hitched up to something virile. What about our insufficient schools?
And, the Randall Cole School sent all of its Negro pupils home, while Brother Gardner and his limetkin club slumbered, slept and snored.

Where sunshine and shadow play,
There with quiver and with bow,
Chase the timid hart and roe.

Chase the tim tibar and roe.

Times may be hard and expenses great, but Bell Buckle realized $204.81. That is more money than Bell Buckle has ever realized in any kind of a rally before under any kind of a pastor. Rev Hawkins just knows how to make people raise the money. Watch Bell Buckle, she has a big surprise put on for you as a teacher she has something interesting for you, that will be a big surprise for you. I will be every body is wild to know who went to the poor house. Well wait until after we can get all our money in hand, and you will be tickled to death over something we have to tell you.

In order to assure successful canning of corn it should be boiled five hours and sealed while hot.
Food canned this summer will prove an asset this winter.
Make your own bread. One quart of flour, two teaspoons of sugar, one teaspoon of salt, one table spoon of lard, a cake of Fleischman's yeast and a pint of luk warm milk or water will make a lovely loaf of bread. Mix the dry ingredients. Dissolve the yeast in half cup of luk warm water or milk. Allow dough to rise five hours. Knead well, make into loaves or rolls to rise about one hour or till double in size.
In order to use the cheaper or chuck cuts of meat, a meat grinder is essential.
Beef loaf makes an excellent dinner dish. Boil beef well. Pass through grinder till finely ground. Mix with whatever seasonings desired. Mold into loaf, and bake in hot oven. Moisten occasionally with stock in which meat was cooked.
The Royal Baking Powder Company of New York has issued a booklet giving recipes for cakes and pastries, using half the number of eggs, used formerly. With the price of eggs soaring skyward and the possibility that they will soar higher every housewife should have one of these little books.
Two thirds of a cup of butter, one cup sugar, one half teaspoon salt, one egg, two cups flour, one cup milk two heaping teaspoons baking powder with flavoring to taste make an excellent quick cake.
When troubled with aunts, place legs of table, safe or other furniture in small tins filled with water.
HOW THE FARMER CAN HELP IN THE WAR.
Read the President's message on the next page. Then get busy and do your part. As this paper said some months ago, the world is hungry and demands to be fed, and the farmer who becomes a buyer instead of a seller of foodstuffs this year is in for some hard sledding. More than that, since war has come to our own land, he is in danger of being regarded as a "slacker." The demand for big crops comes from the whole world. Do your part to supply it. But there are one or two words of warning which may not be out of order. One of them is: Don't let the necessity of growing more foodstuffs rush you into the wholesale planting of and crop with which you have not been or to the growing of which your farm depends. Some people are planting Irish potato, navy beans and other crops on a big scale with scarcely a chance of coming out even on the venture.
Keep cool. You can make sure of sufficient foodstuffs for your own family and a surplus to sell without taking any unnecessary risks. If you plant new crops, plant them on a small scale. Just because potatoes and onions are sky high this spring don't go to a big expense to plant them in unsuitable soils. Let your main increase in acreage be with the stable crops. Remember, too, that feed crops for live stock will be needed as well as crops for human consumption. Plant the legumes liberally because they are demanded, but they can be prepared without any rush into doubtful propositions of any reckless disregard of the welfare of the soil.
One thing more: The season is extremely late and most farmers are behind with their work. The temptation to rush things into the ground before the ground is prepared for them would be great under ordinary conditions, and it is doubly great this year with the feeling that we need to produce the biggest possible crops. It is a temptation, however, to which you cannot afford to yield. You will be wasting effort rather than increasing the food supply if you plant on land that is not prepared. Better a day or two later, an acre or two planted, than seed put into land that is not prepared for them. The harvest will be greater. Do your part, but leave the sky-rocketing to the other fellow.—Agriculturis

THE NOBILITY OF THE PROGRESSIVE BAPTIST STATE SUNDAY CHOOL CONVENTION AND WOMEN'S MEETING HELD AT NASHVILLE, ARK.
It is not always numbers that make meetings; it is not always crowds that do work. Real meetings from a spiritual standpoint and real work in the light of divine service depends upon the character of the meeting, the spiritual tone, the moral base and this character of the meeting depends upon the nobility of those who make up the gathering. There is a real nobility, or at least should be a real nobility attend every Christian gathering, for it is supposed that every Christian gathering has for its object the glory of God, the exultation of the King by the subjects of the King.
It was this distinguishtin gleature to make the Nashville meeting superior to that any it has been the editor's privilege to attend in a number of years. While the delegation was splendid, really larger than had been expected, owing to the distance of the meeting and the cost of the fare, and gain, owing to the great opposition that the Progressive Baptists have had in this state, but it was not numbers nor even the raising of money which was very gratifying, indeed, that was so praiseworthy, but it was the nobility and character of the exercises of the program and those who took part upon the program and the spirit that was manifested, and the motives that underly all of the work. From start to finish the idea of giving God the glory was paramount. Not a word of vilification against any one was even spoken, not even was there a word said against the most ardent enemies of Progressiveness. The nobility of the individuals composing the meeting was too superior to engage in anything except that which was high-toned, dignified and first-class. This touch of nobility was given to the meeting by the respective presidents. Dr. G. A. Long

president of the State Sunday School Convention, Mrs. M. C. Gaines, president of the Ladies' Convention. This touch of nobility having been given by the respective presidents was carried to a happy consummation by the delegates and visiting friends. The finances of the two meetings were very encouraging as well as the spirit of the community in which the meeting was held.
The whole meeting demonstrated that the Progressive Baptists of Arkansas have a real state organization, and that in order to have state association they do not have to yield up their manhood rights nor their church prerogatives of anybody because the state organizations which afford public association and public church association is an established fact. For be it known, if our brethren of the old line persuasion could have so hampered the Progressives as to have prevented them from having a state organization, and thus having public spiritual association, they would have wonderfully hampered the spiritual field of the Progressive brotherhood, for there is nothing that is sweeter than public state Christian association, but the Ladies' State Association, and the State Sunday School Convention is a reality, and the women and men who do not think as other women and men have somewhere to go, a real organization in which they can do work without being bossed, or stooping to what they believe to be erroneous and irregular. The meeting was the gathering together of God's real noblemen and noble women, and the meeting itself was high-toned in every respect, and satisfactory to the leaders of the Progressive movement from every point of view, both financially and attendance.
MR. DAVIS AND HIS LADY BAND
MAKING GOOD.
News has come to us from many of the different sections where Mr. Davis and his Lady Band have gone and they have made good. This band is an exceptionally good one. Worthy of anybody hearing. We appeal to every man, woman and child, both white and colored make a sacrifice and hear the angels of earth send forth their melodious echoes. We believe you would say as did the writer of old: Didn't our hearts burn within us as they sang by the way. We feel like saying every one that listen to these daughters of Ham will be willing to take off their hats to these human angels and ask them themselves this question. What manner of women are these? Hear them.
demning the wrong. So we feel we would be untrue to ourselves, to our readers and to the race if right. In the face of this awful, barbarous and inhuman crime. We believe the St. Louis riot recently engaged in is one of the most brutal, inhuman ever recorded upon the annals of history. Think if you will of women losing their self-control, self-respect and rushing upon seizing their sisters in color and doing them a bodily harm. Is there an incident even in ancient history when more than sixty lives were lost and thousands of dollars of property destroyed on account of some affair too insignificant to mention. But like true Americans, we must not hold our peace. Then again we must not lose hopes but we must keep our hands in God's hands, our eyes upon the morning star and press forward and in the end all will be well. —Murfreesboro Sentinel.
THE TRUE AMERICAN
One of the greatest surprises that should come to anybody, is the fact of all the hindrances, shame and crimes of lawlessness (viz: lynching, burning and assassinating) the Negroes they are eager to fight. They are eager for a place in the United States Army. If this is not a true American, who has the true American spirit. I would that some one to inform me of its whereabouts. The colored boys gladly accept the lot that make them soldiers. The young colored man believes that a call to defend the colors is the highest and noblest duty that can come to any individual. We assure the President that the boys of 1917, whom he selects will rally to the call and face the opposing foe as did the boys of any of the preceding conflicts.
We shall feel that this country has honored us by calling us to the front to defend this country. We ask that these love ones we leave behind shall give us their prayers along with their words of encouragement.
THE VOICE OF A HUMBUG.
By J. P. Robinson.
I have often heard the people talk about a humbug, and wondered what it meant. Now I may miss the analogy but will venture to explain. A humbug is a very amusing thing One day I was walking along and heard a mighty voice in the grass I looked and, behold, it was a great big bug that had gotten all tanned up in some spider webs. He had atroped to the edge of the grass, itself the face of the others, but was himself overtaken and captured. This seems to be a day of humbugs on which we live.
The atmosphere seems to be filled with woven webs to hinder the unsuspecting passerby. If you will look into the column of wants at any stage you will certainly find wanted men. Men of character, of truth and veracity, men that can do something men that cannot only talk and buzz, but men that can demand respect and attention, that can turn up something and bring things to pass. I hear a mighty buzzing nowadays, because the humbugs invented by a purchased a fine piece of property in East Nashville as a Baptist Theological Seminary and Training School and there is a mighty protest going up among the humbucks offering words of criticism of the good intention of the convention, unincorporated, to conduct this school above named.

REV. W. T. AMIGER TO PREACH.
The public is invited to hear Rev. Wm. T. Amigier of Philadelphia at the first Baptist Church, 8th Ave. N., Sunday morning July 22nd. Rev. Amigier is the Ex-Pres. of the Louisville Baptist College, Louisville, Ky. He is making a special visit to the church and will offer a series of warmons before leaving his home. Special music by the choir, assisted by Miss Helena Lowo, who will render a special solo. The public is asked to hear him.
the criticises themselves were honest and upright, they would jump into this upstart project and all hands and push onward to its successful conclusion. But like any other humbug they will stand off and buzz and hum to hinder those who can and are trying to do something. Whatever may be said, the die is cast and the college and ground are bought and it will be read of by unborn generations. If one can't do that thing that ought to be done, then let that one do it that can for the purposes of the concern, and let the house for the sake of community and the work which we represent be quiet at least for the moment that something may be given to give prestige and standing to the denomination and race. I want to put my readers on the look-out in this article for the HUMBUGS, who will oppose every effort that has for its end the accomplishment of something for the race.
THE GAZETTE AND HER NEGRO
FRIENDS.
The Akansas Gazette, the greatest daily journal in the State of Arkansas, read by more people possibly, than any other two journals in the state, and therefore stands first as a molder of public sentiment and the creator of public policy, is not in the judgment of the People's Defender, treating the public right, and especially the Negro contingent of the public. The Negroes are readers and lovers of the Arkansas Gazette, and in many instances must look to it for protection against a public sentiment that would be destructive to them, but the Negroes feel a little grieved at the readiness that the Gazette offers its columns, or permits its columns to be used for expression and moulding of sentiment that humiliates, and puts in the wrong light the Negro people.
The expression found in the columns of the Gazette the morning of July 4th, in its write-up of the East St. Louis riots, the "Buxom Wench" referring to a young colored woman who had been driven from her home by rosters and anarchists is so distasteful to all respectable and self-respecting colored people until they regard that the Gazette surely hath forgotten her friends. A careless fling of that kind at the women of a race of people who may in many respects be helpless and unable to defend themselves, is to say the least unfair and shows the advantages that might takes over right. It is such write-ups, such references to a civil people, such references to a race of tax-payers, to a race of people who have cleared up the forests and tiled the field, such references that are entirely uncalled for and help to form public opinion and race feeling and bad conditions, and to set in motion winds that ultimately will grow into whirlwinds. For be it understood that whatever my be said or done, that the strong man never stays strong forever, nor the weak man never stays weak forever. The best policy is that the man who is strong today should at least give his brother who is weak today, a living show, for tomorrow under the providence of God, he himself may be the weaker, and the other may be the stronger, and he will have met out to him what he has met out to his weaker brother. For saith God we shall reap that which we sow.

ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH
Sunday, July 15 was quarterly meeting day at this place and a glorious one too. The P. E., F. W. Gardner was in trim for the occasion and all who were present enjoyed the spiritual feast for the hungry soul, 'twas mana. No thinking woman or man will deny the fact that Rev. Gardner is a gospel preacher to the manner born, and St. John is proud to have one so able, so energetic, so full of divine knowledge as this God fearing man preside over the meeting. St. John is moving onward to higher ground, gaining new heights each week. Rev. Smith, the beloved pastor is moving slowly along, doing the right, fearless of the foe, but steadily gaining upon the enemy. The 3rd Quarterly Conference held Tuesday, July 16, was a great success, a calm, brotherly, loving Conference. All reports from every department were good. A grand total of nearly $800.00 was raised during the quarter. Mr. S. H. Nesbitt, the new St. John's awake and progress, is awake and is making good. The S. S. wishes Bro. M. L. Brantley, the retiring Supt. and his young wife much success' in his new field of labor. Again another link in the chain of membership has been broken. Friday, July 13th the grim monster seized Sister Lizzie Love, whom none knew but to love. Our loss is Heaven's gain. The links are fast being broken 5 have died dur
ing this third Quarter. Pastor and all delegates are off for District Conference. The Lawn Fete on Fisk Campus Thursday evening, July 12th given by the choir was quite a success. Mrs. Brennan was the choir's choirist, and hustling organist, made good time with her corps of of workers. The result was $7.33.

Not Bothered Now With Either Bronchial Trouble or the Cough
"My husband had been bothered for some time with a cough, and his bronchial tubes were stopped up," said Mrs. Susie Lea Wilson, who lives at 5 Miller street Nashville, Tenn., in her statement to us a couple of weeks ago. "That bothered him all the time and he worried along with it for some time, but finally decided to try Lung-Vita. It sure did the work for him. He is not bothered any more with the bronchial trouble or the cough and its perfectly well and sound." Coughs, colds, grip and whooping cough readily give way to Lung-Vita. Get a bottle and keep it on hand—you can't use anything better. Lung-Vita is sold by druggists and dealers. (Adv)

REV. SAMSON BROOKS IN BALTIMORE SETS THE OLD TOWN TALKING
Baltimore, July 18—All Baltimore is talking about the big financial rally pulled off at Bethel A. M. E. Church Monday night, when $4,300 was re
ported, with the indications that the sum will reach $5,000 when additional reports are made this Sunday.
The rally was planned by the pastor of the church, the Rev. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, who raised over $7,500 in one effort at St. Paul's A. M. E. Church, St. Louis, while pastoring there. The reputation of Dr. Brooks as a money raiser caused a big crowd to assemble at the church Monday night, and many remained until early Tuesday morning, when the last of the reports came in.
For the purposes of the rally the workers had been divided into groups called annual conferences, the leader of each of which was known as a bishop. "Bishop John Williams, of Thousand-dollar Conference reported the highest amount, over $600.
The other "bishops" were Theodore White, A. H. Daniel, W. Lee, William B. Hammer, Robert Sorrell, George Palmer,' Jacob Heath and Thaddes Cornelip.

Dr. Brooks has been pastor at the church since the latter part of April, when he left a charge at Kansas City, Kan. Since coming here the attendance and collections have increased, and the general belief is that the big debt on the church will be greatly reduced during his pastorate. He was a pastor in Nashville at one time.

NATIONAL NEWS NOTES
BRIEF BITS OF NEWS AND COM-
MENTS ON MEN AND
MEASURES.
"Dry" Prospect Striking Chill to New
Yorkers—Figuring Possible
New York, N. Y., July 16—Various gentlemen who thought they favored prohibition are not so sure of it now. They think that what they favor is temperance. With many other New Yorkers a horrible scare has been thrown into them by the possibility, if not probability, of bone-dry legislation. They did not know what this meant in a business way to New York until suddenly they were confronted by the facts through the action of Congress.
Real estate men predict a frightful slump in real estate in the metropolis. If we have national prohibition. If we have national prohibition. too great difficulty in fashioning a real estate and the test. Retail merchants say heavy contraction in business. Hotel men are doleful and the theatrical people say it means little short of disaster to many of their enterprises.
No part of the country would be hit so hard by prohibition as New York. The floating population of the city is estimated variously at from 200,000 to 300,000 persons. The variety of entertainment the city offers is a great attraction. Men and women who are inclined to be strait- at home unbend in New York. They want to use the sights of the great city, its lively offices, its colorful sides, its bright lights. For the few days they are in the city they are willing to be unconventional. Women are eager to visit places they have read about or heard about. Men too. They may cheese-paring at home, but they are inclined to splurge in New York. This floating population brings hundreds of millions of dollars to New York annually, which flows through innumerable channels, those mall, hotel, restaurant, saloon, theatre, the shop, dr, goods emporium and the shop, dr, goods emporium that dot the city's streets with its many sided life, and which, in turn give value to many other properties and employment to many persons.
Washington, D. C., July 11.—The Anti-Saloon League of America, which has conducted a persistent lobby in the Capitol for years, will be investigated. Its leaders will be called to tell where they get their money and about their methods of campaigning.
The forcing to the front of the "bone-dry" proposition at a time when the country demands action on important war measures has focussed on the activities of the league's representatives in Washington. These men known by every Congressman in Washington are THE LEAGUES' REPRESENTA
TIVES.
These men form what is known as the "National Legislative Committee of the Anti-Saloon League of America." They are to be seen in the Marble Room of the Senate, on the very threshold of the chamber, conspiring against senators while bills are being considered. They threaten Congressmen with back-fire movements if the latter do not come to the scratch on all important anti-liquor matters. While other lobbyists dodge about the Capitol trying to keep their presence a secret except to a few, the anti-saloon worker goes into equally the Senator's private rooms or to public rooms in him orders. Not one word has a single tone against the barbarians of East St. Louis, or other portions of the country and they are Ministers of the Gos-

Mosaic Templars Adjourn
Little Rock, Ark., July 11.—After exhibiting figures showing it to be the wealthiest Negro organization in the wealthiest Negro community off a parade that opened the event, people that lined the streets, the triennial convention of the Mosaic Templars adjourned today.
The Mosaic Templars, $3,000 strong now, was founded by the late William H. Jackson and the Arkansas and close friend to Booker T. Washington. He died in 1916. His son, Chester E. Push, suc-

ceeded him. During the week Mr. Bush reported that in three years the organization took in 12,000 new members and put away in cash money $100,000.
More than a thousand delegates were so pleased with this report of their chief financial officer that they elected him in ten minutes all of the principal officers by acclamation. There isn't much wrangling in the Mosaics.
The convention held here will be memorable because of the number of visitors, some 5000, the speech made by Roscoe Simmons before the largest audience ever assembled in the state to listen to a colored man, the brilliant eulogy on John E. Bush delivered by John H. McConico, who

said that, though as a child, Mr. Bush ate husks, he died in a mansion, the reports of Grand Master Elliott and the Bush brothers, who are carrying on the work of their father. Important changes were made. Hereafter, Chester E. Bush will be both National Scribe and Treasurer, the office of treasurer having been abolished. In the future the Nationals will be treasured for years instead of every three years. That saves money, and the Mosacs are careful about money matters. On motion of Scipio A. Jones, attorney general and noted lawyer, a "Mosaic Patriotic Day" was set aside.

On this day a fund will be raised to buy U. S. Government securities, and keep alive assessments of Mosaica who may be at the front fighting. Already the Mosaic Templars own $30,000 worth of Liberty Bonds. They were among the big buyers in the South. Many prominent people, black and white came to the meeting. At the public exercises 2000 people packed the Mosaic Temple to listen to Roscoe Simmons, whose speech, in answer to those delivered by the Governor and the representative of the Governor was a big thing in the life of southern New York. Talking about money in these hard times, Chester E. Bush reported that the Mosaic Templars have got $183,000 in cash money in Little Rock banks alone.

Let us not forget to mention that he has taken with him (besides other hallmarks of a brilliant performance the Holman prize for distinction in Pathology.

A GREAT CAMPAIGN
No greater nor more important campaign has ever been waged in Tennessee than that soon to be waged by our educational forces, assisted by the departments of Agriculture and Health. This campaign is for community organization to secure better educational, agricultural, and health conditions. No effective work can be done along these lines without organization. The reason people living in
```markdown

```markdown
```
towns and cities have advantages that people living in rural districts do not have is because of organization. If the people of the rural districts will organize as is planned in this campaign they can bring to themselves unthought of improvements. First we believe there should be definitely fixed community boundaries and every citizen should know to what community he belongs and owes allegiance. We believe there are no better boundaries for our communities than those fixed for our community and the people belonging to a school should constitute a community. As the county has a common center, the court house, so the community must have a center and we believe this center should be the school house. Every community should have a community house, a where the people can meet for any purpose and where school is conducted.
The people of a community need to meet and determine those things that will be for their best interests as a community. We believe every patriotic citizen desires to see better educational, agricultural, and health information in his community and we urge every community to engage and appoint committees whose duty it will be to look after these interests. These committees will receive most hearty co-operation from the state departments representing these interests.
The educational committee should see that the community or school is comfortable, attractive, and sanitary, and the community is beautiful and made homelike. It should see that the social advantages are as they should be. It should create a demand for long school terms, efficient teachers and a more strict enforcement of the attendance law.
The agricultural committee should consider the community problems along the lines of production, distribution, and conservation—all the problems relating to the agricultural activities of the farm and of the home.
The health committee by making sanitation the care of the community can protect the health of the individual. The major causes of death in our state are found in diseases that are to a large extent preventable. A local physician or state department of health, many of whom dreaded diseases can be largely controlled.
I am greatly interested in the improvement of rural life in our State. I believe the rural problem to be one of our most serious problems. For this reason I have given it my most consideration. After careful consideration I am perplexed one way to improve and enrich the rural life is through community organization. For this reason I hope to see every county in our state organized into community units with the school house as the center where the people can meet to consider all their common interests.
The proposed campaign will be put on the county where it is desired. The request must come through the county superintendent of public instruction.
I feel sure every teacher in the State will be greatly interested in this great work for the teacher is the logical community organizer. I hope all interested in better rural life will organize our community organizing their community. If the campaign be put on in every county some time during August or September your communities will be called to meet at your school house to organize. A program will be arranged by the teacher and county superintendent. Be sure to attend. If interested write your county superintendent or me for booklet of information.
Very sincerely,
S. W. SHERRILL,
State Superintendent.

If he sights me, he can have no enviable end.
I am the only ladder that reaches the Land of Success.
Many times men curse me, seeing in me an arch enemy, but when they try to do without me life turns bitter and meaningless and without a groom.
Fools hate me; wise men love me.

We call attention to this to let the world know that the old gang is still chopping heads. Prof. Reid for three years has done wonderful work at the interstate academy, his work grew and prospered under his management. The people fell in line with him and recognized him as a real educator. He began to have some real personal power and influence. He dared to poke his head above the mossy water, he dared to ask for his pay, he dared to speak to the people through the Student's Herald, he committed the crime of not laying down on his stomach and letting the old boss and bosses belabel his back with their canes and hence he became an undesirable and was dismissed.
The editor of the People's Defender does not hesitate to say that no young man who hopes to succeed will

ever succeed under the old Morris-Booker regime. That crowd of bosses have sworn eternal vengeance upon any young man who raises his head. They only use young men as tools, that is the only need they have for them. The woman or man that accepts place under them, even at their solicitation, only does it at their own perils, because the very first opportunity they will slave him. In fact, the intolerance of that old crowd of leaders is such that no man or woman in safe trusting their future with them. They may ask one to come and take charge over a school over which they have influence and power. They may ask one to accept a position in the college, they may ask one to accept an office in the state or district, but it is understood that they only want them to be slaves, and accept the kick, the boot, the foot whenever the bosses feel like giving it. The very moment that they assert any prerogatives of freedom, they are ruthlessly dismissed and kicked out.
This truth is not hidden from the young men of state but they are too cowardly to assert themselves. They will talk in private, and have talked in private even since the Camden meeting, and swear that the conditions and ruling of the old bosses are unbearable, and yet they have not the courage to throw the yoke off. It is an old saying but a true one, that he who would be free must himself strike the first blow. —People's Defender.

Watch the Maroons trim the Sox
Sunday, July 22nd at Greenwood Park
MAROON DOPE.
The Maroons are playing a very consistent game at present time, and all you Sox will have to go go, go.
Look out Nationals, we are after you too, but if you ask Mr. Miller who hit him hardest, he will say Nationals, but if you ask him who he dreads he will say those M—they are in luck.
Charley Whitsetts, the old reliable 3rd sacker is now playing short stop. John Patton the classy door-keeper is now holding down the hot corner.
Joe Roberts, the south paw is now on the door and you have to give the right signal before entering.
Baby Green is guarding the home station and be careful how you run.
With Tommy Britton yelling, stand up little, the I am here.
Blue Christmas and Connoy are on Sentry duty with keen eyes look for star files.
Ford Truk and Shielding Shadow
bending them over the corners.
With Taylor and Brown telling them
to please let them hit one so we can
see how those Sentry Chaps do trot.
Hane Weakly, singing that certainl'
looks good to me.
The Nationals are playing well.
The Swifts are playing H——.
The Sox are playing in a bag.
The Maroons are playing for the rag.
Good bye till Sunday.

wealth is in me.
I am represented in the shoes you wear, the bread you eat. In every article of commerce you see.
I am more highly cultivated in America than in most other countries, especially by men of wealth.
I am sometimes overdone—voluntarily by the ambitious, involuntarily by the oppress and the very young.
In moderation, the very oxymoron of the able-bodied, even though some sure of my constancy, look upon me as loathsome. A little taste of my absence quickly brings them to their senses.
My followers among the masses are becoming more, powerful year after year. They, beginning to dominate governments, to overthrow monarchies, to rule themselves.
I am the mother of democracy. All progress comes from me.
Theman who is bad freids with me can never get very far—and stay there.
The man who is bad friends with me can go—who can tell how far.
I am I M I. What am I? I AM WORK? E. R. Adams.
The Big 's and little 's seem so have a hard time of it at Camden. The Big 's trying to make the little 's lie down and take their annual spanking, and the little 's struggling to keep from taking the lash. Easily down your pants, boys, and flatter out, and take your flogging in good grace. It is not polite manners to have a master if you are not going to submit to him. —People's Defender.
