Valuable Property Purchased for Theological Seminary Associations to Pledge.
The Missionary Baptist State Convention at its last session adopted the National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary as its main educational interest. The purchase of such a magnificent and valuable piece of property, at this time will go down in history as an epoch in our racial and denominational life.
The wisdom of the purchase as shown by the recorded wishes of the Baptists, as they have been expressed by the National Baptist Convention for the last twenty years. It is shown by our white brethren in the North, who offered through the Home Mission Society of New York, $25,000. The same, if the convention would raise the price, the Northern Baptists after waiting a long time, lost faith in us, and with a withdrew their offer. The wisdom of the purchase and the urgency of the need of such an institution for Negro Baptists were abundantly attested by the magnificent offer of $50,000.00 by the Southern Baptists Convention, if the National Baptist Convention would raise $25,000.00 which would insure a site and buildings that would cost $75,000.00. Theses and buildings we have purchased could be duplicated for less than $100,000.00. The above being true we have gone to approval of all the Baptists in America both white and colored, from the borders of Canada on the North to the limit of Federal control on the south, from the Philippines on the East to the sunset Pacific on the west.
History does not disclose before nor since emancipation, where any great object of our race ever received universal approval, before it was finally accomplished until now. Dear Brethren we should thank God and time to courage, for though at present timeious, we will write on the scroll of our achievement, and point to its activity as a monument to truth. Every individual Baptist in the state of Tennessee should pledge and pay from $5.00 to $500.00 be paid cash or in four years, paying one-fourth of the amount subscribed annually. You should hand the receipt down to your husband and they pass it on to future generations.
The great advancement of the Negro race is attributed to his proficiency in imitation, rather than to heredity and succession, as scientific investigations will prove to be the case. Thus our forefathers are robbed of their part of the glory of our success, because they left us no records of their deeds of charity, philanthropy or business transaction, which church should vote a pledge and hold the pastor and the proper officers to sign the notes and when paid the notes should be in the archives of the church for future generations. Every association should pledge liberally. Tennessee Baptists alone should subscribe and pay $15,000.00 on the purchase price of this great school. Send in your pledge.
Let us go to Atlanta in September with you. We have about half that amount now. What will you do?
OLD TIME VETERAN PASSES AWAY
At 5 o'clock Tuesday morning the summons of death came to Mr. James King, and he quietly answered the call at his home, 814', 19th Ave., N. Mr. King was born in Nashville in May 1848. In 1868, he married Mrs. Lucy Denny, to this union fourteen children were born.
Mr. King had been in ill health for thirty-two months yet the end was unexpected. The funeral services were held at the St. John A. M. E. Church of which he was a faithful member of long standing at 2 o'clock Thursday Aug. 9, 1917. Rev. Howard conducted the services. Rev. Alred spoke a few words. Mr. James King was the father of Mrs. Martha King Thompson, who is connected with the National Baptist Publishing Board. He leaves a host of friends and relatives to mourn his death.
Mr. King was an old soldier having fought in the Civil War. Mr. King was real proud of his Career as a soldier. The many floral designs attested the love and sympathy of his many friends.

PASSES MEDICAL RESERVE
BOARD OF GEORGIA.
Dr. J. Harrison Robinson a Meharry graduate of the class of 1917 recently passed the examination for U. S. Medical Officers Reserve Corps. The examination was held in Atlanta and Dr. Robinson passed, the examination with flying colors. Col. T. S. Bratton has recommended that he as the Negro troops are mobilized. This signal honor means that another one of Meharry's brilliant sons will be added to the reserve force at Des Moines, where he is practicing at Rockmart, Ga., where he is dearing himself in the hearts of the people of that growing little town and they are pained to hear that he must leave them just as he is beginning to establish himself.

ized equally satisfactory results among the men and boys. Some very fine livestock and poultry were shown and the Boy's Pig Club had some promising pigs which they are fattening for fall killing.
To stimulate interest in the diversification program of farming among Negroes, the leading white business men of the county offered $100 in gold for the best exhibits and they helped by their presence and words of inspiration to encourage greater activity in the rural districts.

FOR A MOTTO.
"One thing I am resolved upon: I will not be a song or a parasite. I will give an honest equivalent for what I get. I want no man's money for which I haven't rendered a full return.
"I want no wages that I haven't earned. If I work for any man, or any company, or any institution, I will render a full, ample, generous service. If I work for the city, or State, or the nation, it shall have my best touch, my best effort, my most conscientious and efficient endeavor.
"No, no body of men, shall ever be made poor by their dealings with me; if I can give a little more than I get every time, in that shall be my happiness. The great commonwealth of human society shall not be the loser through me. I will take good care to put into the common fund more than I take out."

Edwards, Pine Bluff for G. M. of E. Supreme Chancellor which resulted in the election receiving a "slight bust." Grand Chancellor Avant of Hume was reelected over Sir Young by a vote of 246 to 98. The Bond was reelected over his opponent by Votes and F. D. Morris won over the G. K. of P. and S by a narrow margin of 5. Votes.

In 1879 the military department of the United Brother of Friendship and Sisters of Mysterious Ten was organized under the name of the name of Knights of Friendship. The object of the organization was and remains to active military service. From its organization it has served as a feeder for the regular U. S. A. During the late Spanish-American war statistics show that more men from the campa of Knights of Friendship became of African descent than from all the other secret orders among Negroes within the states.
When the U. B. F.'s flourished in this state in the eighties, several camps were in good working order. Now that the order is returning to its pristine glory the camps begin to reinstate and take on new life. The Rock City Camp recently reinstated the N.J. Camp and the Kansas Camps which is composed of local camps in Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee and Alabama. Once in three years these several camps send delegates and meet at the time and place of the National Grand Lodge of the U. B. F. in Kansas City. The camp held in Kansas City, $300 were paid for prizes won in hotly contested drills. Dress parades and general street parades were great attractions to the entire city and the 1,500 delegates. The next encampment will be held at Indianapolis, Ind., July, 1918. It is planned to have 500 uniform men in line. Gen. Joseph J. Lester, National Knight Commander and J. A. Lester of Tennessee is National Knight Recorder. Other national officers are elected from the several states. Hon. Ferd Davis, Pine Bluff Ark. National Grand Master of the entire order, is Commander-in-Chief Grand Master P. F. Hill and the late J. Thomas Turner both served as J. A. Lester of Tennessee in Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga and other Tennessee cities will reorganize and let one state take her right place in the National Grand Camps.

Pres. Wilson Asked to Speak
"Some Public Word" Want d
The Shame of Illinois
The following Special Dispatch from Washington appeared in the New York Evening Post of August 1.
Washington, August 1. Negroes of the nation carried to the White House today their protest against the atrocious attacks made upon them at East St. Louis and other industrial centers recently. They appealed to President Wilson through Secretary Tumulty to give hope and courage to the Negroes of the United States.
Mr. Tumulty listened to the reading of a petition and promised the delegation, which was headed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association of the Advancement of Colored People that "the matter would not be neglected." He told his colleagues also that the President has been in consultation with department officials concerning better protection for the Negro citizens of the country. The President gave a personal touch to give with the President a request Mr. Tumulty said he would place before Mr. Wilson.
MR. JOHNSON'S REMARKS
The remarks of Mr. Johnson in addressing Secretary Tumulty were as follows:
"We, the Committee of the Negro Silent Protest Parade, in which 15,000 colored men, women and children took part last Saturday in New York, come to present to you and through you to the President and Congress a petition for redress of certain grievances. We come representing not only the Negro Silent Protest Parade, but the colored people of Greater New York, and the sentiments and aspirations and sorrows, too, of the entire Negro population of the United States.
"We come representing twelve million citizens whose devotion and loyalty to the nation have never been questioned—twelve million citizens who, when the present storm broke over our land, took their unqualified stand side by side with the original American stocks that landed at Plymouth Rock and the right given by loyalty. We feel that in coming to you, we are well within our rights—the right given by birth, the right given by labor, and the right given by loyalty. We feel further, that it is especially fitting that we come at this time when the heart of the nation is so deeply touched by the cause of democracy and of humanity.
"We come asking that the President use his great powers to have granted to us some redress for the grievances set
The riot at East St. Louis is one of the worst blots on the good name of an American community in our whole history. Illinois must bow her head in shame thru this disgrace. We have no excuse. There can be no excuse for such a breakdown of the most primitive safeguards of civil government, for such betrayal of the first duty of ordered society. The Tribune, which has failed the evil of lynching and especially reproached its countrymen of the south for their failure to stamp it out, does not have the city of Illinois, this outrage in Illinois. The blood of victims spatters the state. The riot will burn as an unforgettable dishonor in our memories. We do not propose to talk now about race hatred or economic rivalry or any other learned aspect of the offence. There is just one truth, one slickening, shameful truth—in an American city, the city has been a loathsome lurvation of the brute and neither civilized public sentiment nor constituted authority was capable of arresting it. If Illinois has a conscience it will solemnly resolve that no such dishonor shall ever lift its head among us again. We ask Gov. Lowden, and if need be the legislature to examine the city, we should create this outrage and the conditions which left society at the mercy of brutishness in this region.
We demand especially that it be made clear why neither the police nor the militia were capable of strangling the riot at the beginning. We demand the guilty be tracked down remorselessly and punished to death, and we demand the law be understood the difficulty of this task. We understand how a mob and even its leaders escape in a jungle of anonymity and political influence. We realize how race prejudice and other complications will block discovery and punishment. We know that whites are guilty. We know that blacks are guilty. But we know also that the community and the law are before us. And if we cannot punish the community and the state more than in the punishment already visited upon its good name, we can at least study its guilt and do our utmost to root it out. We ask the government especially to probe at once into the cause for the deplorable showing of the militia. Twelve companies, a regiment, were called out for service which half a million of Pennsylvania constabulary could have handled with swift effect.
We know this is not entirely the fault of the men of the guard. There may have been weak individuals.
forth in our petition, and we come, further, praying that the President may find it in his heart to speak some public word that will give hope and courage to our people, thus using his great personal and moral influence in our behalf.
"To the President and Congress of the Uited States:
"We, the Committee of the Negro Silent Protest Parade, representing the colored people of Greater New York and the sentiment of the people of N gre descent throughout this land, come to you to present a petition for redress of grievances.
"In the last thirty-one years 2,867 colored men and women have been lynched by mobs without trial. Less than half a dozen persons out of the tens of thousands involved have received any punishment whatsoever for these crimes and not a single one has been punished for murder. In addition to this mobs have harried and murdered colored citizens time and time again with impunity, culminating in a publicity at East St. Louis where nearly a hundred innocent hard working citizens were done to death in broad nightlight for seeking to earn an honest living.
"We believe that this spirit of lawlessness is doing untold injury to our country and we submit that the record proves that the States are either un willing or unable to put down lynch ing and mob violence.
"We ask, therefore, that lynching and mob be made a national crime punishable by the laws of the United States and that this be done by Federal enactment, or if necessary, by constitutional amendment. We believe that there can be found in recent legislation abundant precedent, for the protection of the health of the true or do no nation that seeks to fight the battles of civilization can afford to march in bloodsmeared garments.
"We ask, therefore, immediate action by the Congress and the President of the United States."

offers or privates, or both. But the system under which they exist and the laws under which they are compelled to act are all wrong, and have been proved wrong time and again. We demand that the governor and the legislature create one that may be relied upon to protect civilized communities from anarchy. The East St. Louis riot is nothing to be covered with official whitewash. Illinois stand shamed before the world. Her authority has been denied by word if she does not establish that authority so it will never be defied again.—Chicago Tribune.

NUMBER 41
FAILURE AT CAMP NOT DISGRACEFUL
Ft. Des Mohes, Iowa, August 5—(Special to the Globe.)—When it was recently called to the attention of Colonel C. C. Ballon, Commandant of the Officers' Training School for Colored men at Fort Des Mohes, that there was a tendency on the part of acquaintances to criticise candidates who are being discharged and returned home, said:
"Many persons seem to feel that failure to complete the prescribed course at an Officers' Training Camp carries with it a certain stigma appalling to the community."
"This is, in general, not true, and is only true in cases of men sent home by reason of misconduct.
"There is more dangerous and erroneous belief than that indulged in by many of our people, to the effect that any and every man can become a good military officer. This idea is almost equivalent to the notion that putting a uniform on a man and a ride in his hands makes him a soldier. Both ideas are as incorrect and fundamentally absurd as would be the belief that putting a seabal in a man's hands converts him into the cap of a naval officer but puts him on a naval officer's ship a man to navigate and fight a battleship.
"Not the least useful result of our great training camps will be the correction of those absurd notions."
"I once mustered into service as an officer of high rank a man who frankly said: 'I don't know anything about military matters. I don't know how to get my regiment going, and I don't know how to stop it again. Yet twelve hundred lives and national interests were made dependent upon this utterly unqualified man for purely political reasons. The mass of the people have had very little idea of the danger and disaster that lie behind such appointments, but there are, nevertheless, many who are beginning to realize that they don't want husbands, sons, fathers and brothers ordered in battle by men who don't know how to give them the least show for their lives. And these training camps are going to vastly increase the appreciation of the simple proposition that a soldier needs to know his business just to be a lawyer, the lawyer, the sailor, the electrician and every other man of profession or trade. "Furthermore, they will spread a conception of the fact that Army Officers, on whose competence or in competence depend the lives of men and the fate of nations, require for the proper discharge of their grave duties, training and abilities of a higher order and more varied character than men of any other profession in life.
"It is, therefore, only reasonable to expect that large numbers of those who enter Officers' Training Camps will find after a few weeks trial that they were not destined by nature for the duties and responsibilities of military command. This fact should involve no reproach. It is no more disgraceful to be a misfit at an Officers' Training Camp than to be a similar misfit in training Real military leaders are as rare as real civilians, and the unfit must be eliminated as ruthlessly as are the discordant aspirants for a place in the orchestra, and this elimination is not evidence that the rejected ones are not good men, grave men or patriotic men."
SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF CYRENE
The Sons and F daughters of Cyrene held their annual convention August 2nd and 3rd in the colored Y. M. C. A. This was one of the best sessions ever held.

COMMITTEE ON ENDOWMENT REPORT.
To the officers, and members of the Grand Council here convened instead of the 36th session of the grand lodge of the state of Tennessee.
We your committee on Endowment report as follows:
We have carefully gone into the various itemized statements of the Endowment Board. we have scrutinized painstakingly, and herewith submit the following report. First of all we wish to compliment the secretary of the Board for the neat manner in which these reports are made out, clear, distinct and understandingly. In fact they are so plain, that a fool need not err therein. We are not in the habit of browning underserved men but will be more likely to mislead her office, that she deserved a vote of thanks at your hands.
The Endowment collected we find, is fully accounted for with names, dates, and everything needful to make the report clear and concise. The amount collected is indeed praise worthy. We think the U. B. F, and S. M. T, has done well during the fiscal year just ending when you consider the exodus
the war, and the high cost of living. The expense account has been very small for the amount of work performed, and the board is to be commended for running its affairs with such small outlay. The board certainly deserves praise for economical expense account. The Endowment claims paid meets our approval. We stand back of Grand Master Hill in all that he has done in getting claims settled as expeditiously as possible. We trust the Grand Council will do what it can to devise ways and means to quickly pay all remaining claims. We sincerely regret the suspension of temples, and lodges. We trust that this Grand Council can devise ways, and means their resurrection. In organization the Negro finds his only hope for the betterment of his social, and religious institution. In his words of mingling and comingling with his peers. We want to see a Lodge, and Temple on every hillside, and in every vale. Again commending the magnificent report of the Endowment and hoping that they may live long and prosper.
W. L. Miller, Chairman, T. E. Miller, Dr. J. A. Napier. The foregoing report was received and adopted.

The foregoing report was received and adopted.
After the reading of the reports of the committees, the Grand Master stated that it was in order to elect five delegates to the biennial session of the National Grand Lodge, to be held in the City of Indianapolis, Ind., July 1918. The delegates were elected as follows: P. F. Hill, to represent the Grand Lodge, as Grand Master was elected, his associates were Editor W. L. Miller, of Nashville, and Dr. J. A. Napier, Nashville, Tenn., sister Susan E. Snee, Grand Princess of the State Grand Temple, was elected to represent the sisterhood of the National Grand Temple, and Miss Hattie L. Bramlette the Endowment secretary, was elected as her associate to represent the state grand Temple of the sisterhood for the State of Tennessee, at the biennial session of the National Grand Temple in Indianapolis, in July, 1918.
Prof. J. A. Winbusch, of Ripley, Tenn., was elected director on the Board of Endowment, in the place of G. A. Knight. Editor W. L. Miller, Dr. J. A. Lester, and Prof. T. E. Miller, were elected members of the State Grand Council. After which, the Grand Master stated that (Dr. J. A. Lester, the National Knight recorder of the National Grand Camp of the Knights of Friendship of the United States of America, and Dominion of Canada, and Liberia Africa would reorganize Rock City Camp as a state grand camp to be located at Nashville, Tenn., and would proceed to confer the Knight-hood degree on all visiting third and fourth degree U.

F. of the differential certificate losses would be granted the same privilege affiliation.
Dr. J. A. Lester, at this juncture, made a motion that was seconded by W. L. Miller, that the Grand Master of the State be given plenary power, to make an arrangement to raise money for the defraying of the delegation expenses to the National Grand Lodge, and Grand Temple, in 1917, that will meet in the city of Indianapolis, Ind., and to enforce the resolution making provision for the assessment of Lodge and Temple to that effect. The Grand Master was also empowered, to see that the collection from all back taxes and endowment were promptly paid up, and that all legitimate claims that were now due the beneficiaries be arranged for, and paid off in their order according to their seniority, and all illegal claims such as those filed from Jerusalem Temple, Savannah, Teen. St. Francis Temple, Savannah, and Francis Temple, Life, Teen, where the July Endowment had not been paid when the deaths occurred in said Temple, payments were rejected by the Endowment Board on account of their illegality, and the officers of the department were held responsible for the conduct in attempting to collect money on fraudulent claims.
The Council and Endowment Board finishing up the business before them, adjourned Friday night at 10 o'clock, p. m., Aug. 3rd, 1917, and was delightfully entertained until 12 o'clock by the officers and members of Langst on Loge No. 7 and Union Temple No. 22 at Dickson, Tenn., with an elaborate banquet given by the membership.

Eat Less Meat And Take Kidneco If Kidneys Hurt
Says Kidnace Flushes Kidneys, Stopping Backache
Meat Forms Uric Acid, Which Excites Kidneys and Weakens 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, and stomach, constipation, rapid sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kidnesses aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get a small box of kidnese from any druggist, take one tablet before each meal followed by a glass of water for a few days, and your kidness 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 gerations to flush clogged kidnests and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it can neutralize irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Kidnese can not injure anyone, and will be found a wonderfully effective remedy for all kidney ills. They are inexpensive and can be bought by the dozen at any drug store.

HILARY E. HOWSE.
The Globe will espouse the cause of Hon. Hilary E. Howse for Mayor of Nashville, for the simple reason that he is Hilary E. Howse, nothing more, nothing less. We have known him since childhood. He is a man of sterling worth, integrity, and the very soul of honor. His past is one of achievements which are to his everlasting credit. We have always been deeply and vividly impressed by his personality, and we will hazard the observation that he is one of the best-liked men in Tennessee. His business and private life redound supremely to his credit. We are supporting him not for what he has done or promises to do for the Negro, but rather for what he has done and will do for Nashville's citizens, irrespective of race or previous condition.
Hilary E. Howse is conversant with Nashville's needs and is most heartily in favor of a greater and grander city and the security of the people. There never was and never will be but one Hilary E. Howse, and the people know it. Nashville needs him at the head of its affairs. He has been tried and not found wanting in any essential that goes towards making an ideal Mayor—kind and approachable. Verily he is the man of and for the people, and will rule the city of Nashville by the divine right of the masses, who are for him first, last and all the time. He will be elected by a majority so overwhelming that 'twill be almost unanimous.
NATIONAL PROHIBITION
For several years the dry leaders have felt that if they could induce the senate to consent to the submission of a prohibitory amendment, the house might be depended on to follow suit. Whether this confidence was well placed may not be demonstrated until next winter, the house leaders having decided to confine the work of the present session to war legislation. With eight votes more than the required two-thirds majority, the senate has declared in favor of submitting a dry amendment for the consideration of the state. This is the first time either house of congress has voted to submit a dry amendment. It is clear that not all the senators who voted for the submission actually favor national prohibition. A number of those who supported the resolution explained that their object was to get the issue out of congress, where it was interfering with all war legislation, and let the state settle it. The probability is that the same considerations that induced the senate to pass the resolution will influence the house to accept it. The last test of opinion on the subject was taken in the lower house in December, 1914. At that time a majority was recorded for the resolution, though it fell short of the required two-thirds.
Under the terms of the proposed amendment it must be ratified within six years of the date of submission to become effective. If within the stipulated period three-fourths of all the states have not ratified it, the movement will have been abortive and the national prohibitionists must begin all over again. The affirmative action of thirty-six states will be required to validate the amendment. A state might first vote "no" and later vote "yes" providing the reversal occurred within the specified six years. It could not first vote "yes" and then reverse the verdict. Whether the required number of
affirmations can be secured within six years is problematical. Both wet and dry leaders seem hopeful as to the outcome of the showdown, which would indicate that the proposition is close. About half of the states are now committed to local prohibition. Practically all of these may be expected to ratify the amendment at the earliest opportunity. Another half dozen or so states probably will be easy picking for the drys. Then the dry campaigners will begin to find the enemy heavily entrenched. Getting the last three or four ratifications will be the difficult part of the undertaking. That they will be obtained is neither impossible nor improbable. If temperance sentiment continues to develop within the next six years as it has in the six years last past, adoption of the amendment may be regarded as a foregone conclusion.
The outcome of the forthcoming referendum on constitutional prohibition in Iowa undoubtedly will be scanned by wets and drys the country over as a straw indicating the trend of sentiment on prohibition as a national problem. Iowaans cannot only clinch prohibition in their own state, but can serve the cause nationally by rolling up a heavy majority for the constitutional amendment in the special election to be held in October.
TO THE BOY DRAFTED.
Boy, don't be afraid of the draft. If your country did not need you to fight in its defense it would never honor your name with placing it in the list of men whom it expects to do their patriotic duty. There is only one way you can honorably escape the draft and that is by being legally and actually exempt of physically unfit. If you are physically unfit the slightest stain of dis honor can never smirch your name. If you are legally and actually exempt you will be as honored as the man who goes, for your country is keeping you to do the useful things you can do and thereby assist in winning the war fully as much as the man who goes to the front or into the trenches—and possibly more, for without your help at home he could not be kept alive in a foreign country long enough to get into a battle. Remember that a lifetime of disgrace awaits the boy who shuns the draft, who whines because he has been selected, who rails at the government that asks him to be a man, if necessary, lay down his life in defense of his flag and his country. Better a thousand times die like a man than live like a coward. You have to die some time, anyway, so it is better to die for your country than to live in some other fellow's country, and that is just what you will be doing after this war unless the United States is victorious.
The brand of cowardice will never be effaced in life from the boy who is not willing to go into the new army in this war. Even his grave will not cover his disrespect as long as this and coming generations shall live. Be a true man, be a brave man, thank God for your citizenship in this great republic, fight for it and die for honor to yourself and to your parents, while if you live through it you will come back with honor and your country will never cease to be grateful to you and the other heroes who faced death that freedom might live. We are fighting this war to the last dollar, to the last able-bodied man, to the last drop of blood, if it shall take that sacrifice, rather than submit to a foreign enemy in the human slavery he would put upon us. Go, and may God bless you and care for you and bring you back home to those who love you, a man—one who has faced death for his country—and in your ears will ring the hats of a grateful people, while away from the litch of day, out of the sound of the hisses of hate for his very presence, the coward who escaped the draft will sneak and skulk like a hunted animal, despised by all and pitied by none.
KILLING BIRDS.
There is said to be this summer, among ignorant classes of people, a perfect orgy of bird killing. The high price of meat constitutes an added temptation. The fact that Mr. Robin and Mr. Bluebird have sweet songs does not deter them. They smack the pot pie in their hungry lips. Meanwhile we are trying in this country to raise an increased food supply to win this war. We have planted much more land than usual. The pests are increasing proportionately. There will be a bug for every stalk of corn and hill of potatoes. But the birds, which are the protection against pests, do not increase proportionately. In fact, it seems likely that with this free killing they will decrease. Big crops can't be raised under these conditions. Protection of bird life is a part of the war game. Let officers get after bird killers as well as boot leggers as one of our most insidious enemies. The place for the man who wants to do any shooting is in the trenches.
HOT WEATHER DIET.
The market is glutted with all kinds and descriptions of fancy foods and delicious drinks for use in hot weather, but most of them are a snare and a delusion. The fact of the matter is that the best kind of hot weather diet is the same as the best kind of cold weather diet—wholesome and simple. The effect of the average summer concoction is

merely to tantalize the palate. It does not satisfy and it does not sustain. Plain food and plenty of cold water in summer and in winter are the best fare for man and beast. On such a diet the individual is much more impervious to the extremes of temperature, and much more capable of performing his daily work than when he is constantly swilling down great quantities or rancy food and drink.
There are some things to be thankful for. One of them is that a man can appear in public on a hot day sans the coat, waistcoat and collar which a few years ago were considered indispensable adjuncts of a gentleman at all times.
A farmer who is holding up his potatoes in the expectation of getting a higher price later is playing a dangerous game—a dangerous game, as the villan in the melodrama used to put it.
Of course, even the state and federal bone dry laws will not molest the farmer whose apple cider happens to get a leetle strong along toward next spring.

To get the best results from the use of Quinade the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seebys 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, unqualified by any other shampoo.

MISS FRANKIE TRAMMELLE
HERE ON A VISIT
Miss Frankie Tramline, who has been visiting her mother here, has returned to Akron, O., after spending a very pleasant two weeks' vacation at home. She was accompanied on a trip by her Ernestine Brady Simmons of Akron. While in the city many social events were given in their honor.
Frequently you catch cold during the winter and have a cough. The cold seems to leave you, but the cough hangs on and looks as if it will never leave. You should get rid of this cough, as it may possibly lead into something serious. One of the first signs of consumption is a cough, and for this reason alone, if for no reason you should stop it, or once. And you can use something that stop it as quickly as Lung-Vita. Get a bottle from your drugstiff and start taking it—you will be surprised at the quick results.—Adv.
FISHING MY DEARS!
A fishing party has a charm all its own. Either it is deliciously delightful or it is dolefully dull. In order to be enjoyable there must be a good story-teller in the party. The Lady and her Daughter had all this in mind when they selected their party. It was therefore quite disconcerting when the car stopped in front of this young lady's grandparent's door, to have her appear on the balcony, with her front hair done in balls and her back hair in plaits. Of course balls and plaits are all right but add to them tearful eyes and a general dejected appearance, in a young lady who has received an invitation to a Saturday Afternoon's outing in the country and you know without asking that someone higher up has said "no!"
Of course its no more than right that grandparents should demand that their granddaughters be useful as well as ornamental, however, who could be expected to be cheerful, over the prospect of missing a fishing party, for the sole purpose of spending the afternoon with an electric iron. From time immemorial however, people have realized that it is the very best thing and ripping good form to a friend with influence. Every one heaved a sigh of relief when the Uncle got out of the car and went in to see the grandparents. He stayed so long that the nightlight gave way. Those of us in the car were just about thinking of going after them, when out, they came. The balls and plats of the young lady in discussion had given place to a charming arrangement and she wore a smile that would not come off in a addition to a coat of high brown powder which she had not taken the time to rub in.
The addition of the story-telling young lady brought the party up to seven and one half member. A Cadillac Eight is a seven passenger car. It took about three minutes to stow the half member away on a pillow directly over the biggest lunch basket and we were off!
As we sped along across the river, beyond Roger Williams and into the country, we felt like singing, "I don't know where I'm going, but I am on my way." We did not sing however, because we could not remember the tune? Tune is absolutely necessary if you are going to sing. Our first time came when we reached a creek which instead of bridging, led directly down into the Maze, where wheel however, remembering that, he who hesitates is lost, unless the sthesis is done according to form, on a waxed floor, plunged right in and we were over and breathing freely again, in a tiffy.
The four girls in the party told tales, teased and grew reminiscent. The two women listened while the man at the wheel paid strict attention to driving. We don't remember that the half member had a word to say. If he was paying any attention to the conversation, after the manner of all small boys, he did not show a sign of listening. We passed a house in which a man had decorated his beds in a room. We attempted to explain how they managed it and immediately found ourselves floundering in deep water.
Arrived at our destination, the car was parked in a convenient place and we cut across the meadows to the fishing hole. We decided to eat lunch first, Hungry fishermen and hungry fish are not a good combination. The table was spread and from the very first it was evident that the hostess had no intention of relying on the fish we caught to eat, but with the food we had sufficient amount of fried chicken, salad, egg custard, stuffed eggs, bread, pickles, sandwiches and confectionaries on the inside of one's stomach, ones patience is strengthened and whether the fish bite or refuse to bite there is cheerful resignation.
While dinner was being spread, the half member of the party disappeared and eventually came to light clothed in decided negligence. Five minutes later he had waded into the creek and gotten this scant wetneck wetet. A few minutes later he had waded into the creek with two years who lived in the neighborhood he had the honor of catching the first fish, a sucker about eight inches long.
There were thousands of fish in that fishing hole about four inches long and hundreds about eight inches long. In the sunlight the silver perch shone in the sunlight. The perch shone shallowness of the water on the ledge lead the Daughter and her Guest to
wade. Now the Daughter, though a young lady, has decided poise and we did not worry about her. We had not known the Guest long enough to reach any opinion about her and we did not have time to decide with ourselves, as to whether she was risking her life or limbs on the slippery rock, before her very small shapely feet flew out from under her and she landed on her side in the water, very much to the detriment of a perfectly lauded middy blouse and white skirt. Every one laughed including the wet miss herself. In a few minutes she and the Daughter disappeared and when they returned the young miss was draped in a scrim curtain while the wet garment hung on a bush to dry. While this was happening to the guest, the Lady decided to wade also and off came shoes and stockings and into the water she went. Her wading was done for the sole pleasure of wading and with out mishap. Two of the girls did not wade but confined themselves to fishing. Affection alone kept us out of the water. We have a corn on our light little tooe, which we were afraid might lose, toose and come off in the water. We would be graved to lose it, as we have been attached to it since we had given us the first high heel shoes at the tender age sixteen. During the afternoon the Lady big cat about nine inches long, as she was wading she called the story-telling miss, who hastened with hook and line and placed the bait right in front of the catfish who immediately took the liver off the hook, slowly swallowed it and went home to bed. It was nearly sundown and he had merely come out to get his supper. The story-telling miss having been kind enough to feed him he went home to his wife and baby cat fish under the rock.
The man of the party is a good fisherman. After he finished his dinner he fished assidiously and had real good luck. We believe that he would have done better than he had not with him an aggregation of females who could not bait their own hooks. Baiting hooks naturally took a good bit of his time, stayed on the creek till dark and then back to the car. On the way home we felt it reached twelfth avenue north. On fourteenth Avenue we left the half member and the largest fish of the string. On Heiman street we left the story telling miss. On Jefferson street was left the longest fishing pole and a minnow while the car took home the other three girls, the Lady and the Man, together with the lunch baskets and the rest of the string of fish.

MITTEE
At the Baptist Ministers' Conference Monday morning the matter of arranging for a special Baptist train to run from Nashville to Atlanta, was taken up. It was pointed out at this meeting that there would be several hundred delegates coming through Nashville from points West and North from the states of Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Kansas and Missouri and that Nashville and Missouri and that Nashville may certain these delegates and then rig their train to carry them on their journey. In this plan the committee, consisting of Revs J. L. Harding, H_M. Burns, J. B. Ridley, E. W. Hawthorne, and H. A. Boyd, was named to arrange for a special train and to also prepare for the entertainment of the visiting delegates. The committee is to meet this week, and it is learned from a member of the committee that one of their first plans will be to arrange to show the visiting delegates the new Theological Seminary and Training School site and buildings. *Already a committee has given out that Dr. D. E. Over and his wife, Devin D. Colo, Revs J. W. Warse and J. B. Beckham from Kansas City, with C. Cole from H. Frank and his delegation from Missouri, from H. Franklin and his delegation from Owenaboro, Ky., M. W. Tyler and A. J. Moore with their delegates from Clarksville, Tenn., Rev. Bowen and his delegates from Springfield, Tenn., have already signified their intention of joining the Nashville delegation, is not known just what the committee is not recommend, but the sentiment thus far is favorable. Mittee is to have a special train leaving Nashville about ten o'clock Tuesday night, September 4th, arriving in Atlanta Wednesday morning at seven o'clock, September 5th. This train will carry sleepers and day coaches. Nashville is expected to send the largest delegation in the history of the Baptist denomination down to Atlanta, as the interest in the Theological Training School, the B. Y. P. u. work, the Women's Auxiliary, the Home and Foreign Mission work has been of the same importance. It was also recalled that the Soddy School Congress all these Boards held special meetings, and many of the Baptist brethren were urged to make Nashville the gateway to Atlanta in September.

The Turner College "Whirlwind Campaign" which ended last Sunday night, after only one week's duration, was attended with much interest among the members and friends of the church. Although it was the regular pastor's salary day, Dr. Jones consented and even suggested that the day be set apart for a special collection for the school of which he had so long served as president. A neat sum was raised the amount of which will be reported next week. The Sunday school is rapidly growing in interest and numbers. There was a large attendance at the morning service last Sunday. A number came to hear the pastor discuss the subject announced in the press for the occasion. "The fit and the Unit." But it being "general class" day, the deference of the sermon was deferred to another date. Every department of the church is at work as never before, each member seems determined to do his bit toward the church debt.
Another church "whirl wind campaign" was inaugurated recently at a church conference called by the pastor. The campaign is to end on the fourth Sunday in August. Four "flying squadrons" have been named. Each squadron or division is expected to report fifty dollars or more. The captains of the squadrons are as follows: No. 1. James McNanaway, No. 2. G. B. Turner; No. 3. William Eddings; No. 4. Richard Manuel. Each captain has four colonels, whose names will be announced later. Rev. W. S. Ellington will preach for squadron 1. on the third Sunday afternoon. Rev. J. C. Caldwell will wish the morning service on the Fourth Sunday, when the rally will close. The White Rose-Club will give a sacred concert on the third Sunday night.
TRINITY A. M. E. CHURCH.
Sunday at 9:30 o'clock. Our Sunday school has recently been reorganized and is now in splendid working order. We have the good fortune as well as the honor of having Miss Allen, the charming and efficient young daughter of Dr. G. W. Allen, editor of the Southern Christian Recorder, as one of our teachers. Associated with others whose rating is no less, our Sunday school will soon become second to none. Visitors always welcome. J. R Boyd, Supt, and Miss Daisy Freeman Secretary.
Sunday was quarterly meeting Day for Trinity. The Presiding Elder, Rev. G. L. Jackson, could not be present at 11 o'clock, but the church enjoyed an old fashioned general class meeting in which every one seemed to feel the touch of the Divine Power. At night the Presiding Elder was present, but owing to the serious illness of his son, he did not preach. The pulpit was filled however with two very distinguished ministers in the 'person of Revs. J. M. Tally of French Lick, Ind. and B. P. Hughes, pastor of Flat Rock and the Mountains. They large and appreciative audience. The Lord's Supper was administered by the P. E. and others. Monday night saw the close of the fourth and last quarter which was a success, spiritually and financially.
Under the efficient leadership of Rev. W. L. Powell, our church has done a great work this year. Peace and union also reign in the church. The members seem to have awaken to the sense of their duty and everything is moving on toward success. Rev. Powell is quite a young man both in the ministry and in years, but thus far he has proven himself equal to the task. His future is bright. Deep down in our hearts we are now praying that the Bishop and Conference my see it to send him back to us for another year
We are now in the midst of a great rally. Clubs No. 1 and 2 under the leadership of Mrs. Hamilton, Mrs. H. L. Scott, respectively, are working hard for the prize, which will be $5.00 to the club raising the highest amount over $50.00. Our rally will close on the fourth Sunday night in September.

They were assisted by practically the entire membership, which numbers about 267, but they were all inspired to do greater work under the leadership of Dr. Wilson, who, ever since he has been pastor, has given his uniring service.

Irvin Miller's Wonder Show Sur-
(Amsterdam News.)
After several attempts, more or less successful, Irving Miller has at last scored his point and arrived at the zenith of present colored show-dom. No one show that New York has seen—and New York has seen them all—can compare in any way to the great aggregation of talent and beauty that has been rightly termed Miller's Wonder Show. For comedy, chorus, dance numbers, beautiful and exotic scenes, gorgeous costumes, catchy songs and their rendition the Irving Miller show has not a single peer.
New York recently saw and applauded the Smart Set, or, as modern
hy Daughter"
NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY AUGUST 10. 1917.
ised, the Smarter Set, but the Smarter Set does not begin to compare with Miller's Wonder Show. Unlike the ordinary run of musical comedy—and Miller's show claims to be but a song and dance revue—there is visible the thread of a story through out the entire show. Events occur in their sequence and not haphaazardy. The chorus throughout is dressed, and that in artistic and gorgeous costumes. The dance numbers are great and receive the thunderous applause on the stage. The Apache dance number took the cake with the audience whose insistent encores necessated an appearance on the stage by Manager Elmore, who explained that this number could not possibly be repeated. The Scotch dance by Lucille Bryant team was exquisitely done and received many encores. The Broadway gakewalk by Minus and Bryant also brought down the house. The Miller Waltz by Irvin C. Miller and Easher Bigcon was artistic in the extreme and the audience sustained romance that makes this show so different and so superior to the ordinary thing. The Madura Dance was also very good.
In song numbers the show scored even harder than in the dance numbers, and this in spite of the need of two or three more principals. But then the show has the great good fortune to possess those two supreme artists of the race. Downs and Gomez, and their delightful and sheerly exquisite renditions more than made for certain vocal weaknesses in the cast. Pankey also starred in the vocal line. Mr. Pankey has a fine voice and a other personality. He would make his line in either line, musical come Jy or the serious drama. His numbers, "Time Will Mend a Broken Heart" and others so delightfully put over. Other good song numbers, well rendered are: "Remember," by Goldie Chappelle; "My Place Lover Bold," by Bryant; "Indian Power Bold," by Gayle Chang; "Chinese Romeo," by Walker; and Grace Johnson and chorus. "I Ain't Got Nobody," by Henry Jines.
In comedy this show again surpasses all others. Irvin C. Miller and Henry Jines put over many a clever bit, and several others joined with them in making the barber shop scene a riot of fun and screaming delight. The scenery is both exotic and beautiful. Apparently no expense has been spared in this line. Nor was either time or money held back in the difficult task of costing the chorus. Here, even more than in the scenery, does the Miller Wonder Show lead all others. Irving C. Miller has set a new mark for colored shows.

While living in Nebraska he was twice nominated for Congress, once for Littleant-Governor. In California he has been nominated for railroad commissioner, twice for presidential elector and last for state treasurer. He has written four books: One of them "What To Do and How To Do It," had a circulation of 100,000 in the English language and has been translated into the German and Finnish languages and has national reputation in his life, and has been called by the newspapers, "The silver toned ornament of the west."
He believes that the Bible is the standard by which all human creeds and opinions are to be tried; and especially that the present-day struggles of the nation should be thus ended. All are invited to come early.

ENLIGHTEN THY DAUGHTER
"I have seen "Enlighten Thy Daughter" at the Park Theatre and I consider it by far the greatest force for morality I have ever seen, and I think I have seen pretty near every big film play of the past five years." Thus spoke the Reverend Thomas B. Gregory, a noted minister and author, in an article in William R. Heart's New York American on February 13th. "It will help us preserve chastity and virtue and will aid mothers, fathers and daughters in their own lives and neighborhoods," said Bishop Frederick Selkridge, Junior bishop of Rhode Island. These comments were passed at the Park Theatre, New York, when over five hundred clergymen gathered at a private performance of Ivan Abramson's highly sensation morality film, "Enlighten Thy Daughter."
Before the performance Dr. Gregory gave a twenty minute talk on the great good a picture of this type would do the world at large and how many millions of mothers and daughters would see and profit by the glamour of the theatre, the attraction at the Bijou Theatre next Friday and Saturday.

The Baptist Hill Swift beat the mighty Maroons, Sunday before a large crowd in an uphill game and the score was 9 to 7. The McGraw men have begun their winning streak and are coming out of the cellar to give the tommotchers a race for the pennant, and you had better look out, Mr. Black Sox and Mr. Nationals. The Swifts are coming strong and right after you all and if you stumble they will catch you sure. Watch them trim the Maroons again Sunday.
DR. LONG PASSES OKLAHOMA BOARD.
In a long and rigid examination before the Oklahoma Medical Board at Oklahoma City July 10, 11, Dr. Robert Elliott Long, of the class of 1917 of Meharry Medical College, held up the banner of Meharry by making a high average. He was awarded an excellent student at Meharry and his quiet, gentlemanly conduct won for him the respect of all who knew him. He was active in hospital and clinical practice, being surpassed in minor surgery and anesthetics by only one of his classmates who had had previous training. In Guthrie, Okla. his home town, he bears a splendid reputation and is a good will of the best-colored and white citizens. We wish for him a successful practice, which he expects to begin immediately.

DELEGATES LEAVE FOR MUR
FREESBORO.
An unusually large delegation left Nashville this week for Murfreesboro, Tenn., where the Stone River Association and several of the auxiliaries are in session. They are to remain over Sunday. The following auxiliaries are being invited to attend the Association: The Sunday School and B, Y, P. U. Convention for the District; the Women's Auxiliary to the Association and the District Laymen's Conference. The Association is practically made up of the churches in and about Nashville and close proximity hereto, but it is one of the best in the state, and has by far the largest attendance and number of members will be recalled that the Association met in Nashville last year at the Second Baptist Church, and that they created quite a deal of inspiration when they marched through the streets of Nashville singing religious songs and visiting the National Baptist Publishing Board in a body. Afterwards they were taken in toelly cars for a ride over the city, what the entertainment at Murfreesboro will be, but the leaders are predicting a great session.
