There are Bishops here from every quarter of the globe, the personnel of the Convention at the session showed a varied complexion in representation. One little city in Illinois sent in nine delegates, while from far off California, Oregon and the extreme west, the delegates came with the same precision as from nearby states. The banner delegation, however, already looms up from Georgia, the Peachtree state, with states with large delegations are Tennessee, Texas, Mississippi Oklahoma, Illinois with Carolina Virginia, Alabama, Arkansas, South Carolina, Kentucky and Ohio, stated one of the leading men of the Convention.

About the only business considered in the afternoon was the report of the committee on enrollment and credentials. This took up the better part of the afternoon. President Jones stated he was determined not to have a single session or the transaction of a particle of business until the convention was properly organized. At seven thirty o'clock was music by the national chorus. Devotions were led by Revs. Dunadant of Missouri, Fields of Tennessee and Woods of Oklahoma. After the devotions, the president of the convention with a few brief remarks turne Dana Davis, over to Hon BenJ.

One woman was insulted and struck and one young man was badly cut about the head and face. In other cases Negroes were attacked and cars were stormed and it looked as though Nashville was certain to have serious trouble. However, the reception accorded the committee and the consideration given their report, indicated that all trouble would be avoided. In the meantime, to give the Negroes relief, Chief Barthel took up the matter in a most determined and purposeful way, as he always does and as a result, the station is now patrolled by guards, and all is quiet and peaceful.

After rendition of the program the guests were served a delicious menu FROM A SLAVE TO A GENERAL- A FIRM BELIEVER IN CHRIST By Irvin S. uCrrv. In the small island of Hawaii, one of America's greatest citizens was born, a babe who was to redeem a backward race, which had been in the bonds of slavery for two centuries. Gen. Armstrong grew strong and steered for the great task that was waiting for him. At the age of 20 Gen. Armstrong came to Williams College at Williamston, Mass. He struggled hard for the knowledge he craved. At receive. The generous president to the college no other than President Mark Hopkins, helped him in every way that opportunity could afford. After Gen. Armstrong graduated from collog, thw war clouds began to hover and he was at once appointed commander of the 9th Regiment, colored at Boston, Mass. The great work that Dame Fortune had in store for him began to blossom. After the great American disaster of the days of '61-65, a new race was coming in power, it was a backward race, it was not mentally efficient to stand the test that was before it, and all seemed to be a disaster to the exslaves of America. They were doomed. Yes doomed to destruction, nay, not so, for as Christ saved the world from sin, so the babe that was born in the islands of Hawaii would save the eager black race from destruction. The broad mind of Samuel Chapman Armstrong began to work, he realized the fact that college education alone would do nothing to prevent the fast coming disaster. Gen Armstrong realized that individual education must be associated with lifelong education, and in the year 1867, the American missionary Association purchased this campus known as Wood Farm and temporary school buildings were constructed at once and in the year 1868 school was started with fifteen ex-slaves as students with Gen. Armstrong as president, America's premier institution was thus berun. After many years of grueling hardships, the hero of the Negro race, no other than Dr. Washington thirsting after higher things presented himself at Hampton, for admittance, he was penniless, but nevertheless the broad heart of Gen. Armstrong remembered the days when he was struggling for education and he gave young Washington a chance and he made well of it, after a hard struggle and after graduation from Hampton, Dr. Washington realized the conditions of his race in the black belt of Alabama, $200 was borrowed from Armstrong to make the first payment to Tuskegee and in the year 1881 school was started. The General took a great interest in Tuskegee until the year 1893 when the whole nation was shocked by his death. Dr. Washington through his calm lamb-like expressions became a power among his people. I shall not name the great deeds he has done for they were planted like giant oak trees in the minds of men at his demise. The public can plainly see now why industrial education is of value. If the trade school has saved the Negro from disaster, why not keep it? Gen. Armstrong realised that we must start at the bottom and climb for as the General said, "After freedom a public office was sought more so than a home, we did not know that we were. Since we are advancing please do not try to cast the trade school on the eside from which our advancement first began, and let us keep the General's watchword in sight. "Labor," said General Armstrong "next to the grace of God in the heart is the greatest promoter of morality the greatest power for civilization Character is the out come of the labor system. It is not cheap, but it pays." Armstrong said, "Let us put God and Country first, and selves afterwards."

PORTER RETURNS TO THE CITY To the Blohe: Mrs. Nannie P. Porter has returned to the city after an absence of three days' visit at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Ross Sr., on the Murresboro Road. Mrs. Ross is an ideal hostess and she and her husband know how to make their guest realize that life is worth living in a suburban home. On Sunday morning we drove over to the Baptist Church near Bryant Town arriving there before Sunday school dismissed. Remaining for the 11 o'clock service. Rev. Mr. Frierson preached quite an inspiring sermon from Paul's letter to Timothy, subject "Preach the Word." Returning from church we were invited into the dining room where all the delicacies of the season were placed before us. We ate until our appetites were appeased. Ice cream and cake were eaten until we could eat no more. Late in the afternoon we wended our way across the meadow to the pike then across the pike to the Central Tenn., Hospital for the insane. Here we found the lawn dotted here and there with a variety of flowers, well kept drive ways and beautiful buildings. The exact number of colored inmates was not given but we were told that about 40 females were there and that passing through the colored male's ward we estimated about 25 or more being their number. Words can not describe the cleanliness of the halls, stairways, rooms an dreds. Each bed had a white counterpane on it and a clean pillow case on the epilow. The matron was asked how the floors were hept so clean, and her reply was "With soap and brush." The state is doing much for the unfortunate inmates there. We found more cream and cake to be eaten when we got home. Mrs. Marjorie arriving Mrs. Porter accompanied by Mrs. Ross visited Mrs. Ross' mother, Mrs. H. M. Simmons of Una. Tenn. There a water melon feast was spread before them. She like her daughter, extends hospitality to friends and acquaintances.

The many friends made his visit exceedingly pleasant and all seemed glad to see him. He was the special guest of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Bailey with whom he boarded when he taught the school here. The Centrville Normal and preparatory school had a splendid opening. They have a fine school building and a fine school with also a large museum. Prof. F. W. Wess of Lincoln, University is the new principal and Miss Ruth Upshaw of Nashville, Tenn., is the assistant. After the school was organized Monday morning, the principal, Prof. Wess called upon Mr. H. C. Bailey, one of the school trustees to present Mr. E. L. Kinzer, which he did in well chosen words, expressing the pleasure of the citizens and pupils at having Prof. Kinzer visit them at this time. Prof. Kinzer made a few timely remarks and other speakers on the program were Dr. C. Iria Watson, Messrs. Wm. Robertson, Wm. Easley and Mack Gray, Principal Wess expressed his pleasure of having those present as well as the many other visitors who were on hand. The prospects for a successful year are very promising.

On his arrival he breakfasted with Dr. Hill one of Des Moines' wealthy white physicians. Dr. Hill owns a beautiful sanitarium here in the city of Des Moines, known as the Retreat.

The grievances of the race, the twenty-first annual session of the Lott Care Baptist Foreign Mission Convention came to an end at Ebenezer Baptist Church on Friday evening of last week. Many of the visiting ministers filled local pulpits Sunday. Rev. W. H. Stokes was the enthraling pastor. The next session will be held in Rocky Mount, N. C. The features of the concluding session included a ringing appeal by Dr. Ernest Lyon, of Baltimore, for inter- est in the welfare of Liberia, which is suffering from a lack of the necessaryes of life; a plea by Dr. A. M. Moore, of Raleigh, N. C., for aid in the work in the educational and missionary work that the convention is now doing in Haiti and a report on State of the Country, submitted by Rev. C. C. Somerville. RACE BIOTS CONDEMNED The report not only strongly deprecated such outbreaks as have recently occurred at Chestre. East St. Louis, Houston and other places, but asserted that the unfair treatment of the Negro by the white South was largely responsible for the great migration northward. Colored people were advised to keep out of riots as far as possible. Rev. Abraham Tyler, gave an illuminating recital of his thirty-seven years of experience as a missionary in Liberia. The annual address of the president, Dr. Calvin S. Brown, of Winton, N. C., told of the great need for greater missionary efforts in the present world crisis, and reviewed present conditions as they affect the race. DR. ALEXANDER'S REPORT. The annual report of Rev. Dr. William M. Alexander, of Baltimore, corresponding secretary of the convention, showed that $11,000 had been raised during his past year. The women's auxiliary met Thursday with Mrs. L. A. Hope presiding. The report of the corresponding secretary, COMMITTEE OF NATIONAL INFLUENCE. HOLY TRINITY CHURCH The past ten days have marked the coming and going of many distinguished men and women in the Nation's capital. The race problem has occupied the foreground of consultation and debate throughout this period almost to the exclusion of other topics, aside from the routine war program, now so well in hand as to cause little or no argument. The movement of troops, cantonment preparations, activities of the various commissions and bureaus are proceeding with clocklike precision and it is only a matter of time when the word "ready" will be sounded from the commanders-in-chief of the American forces in the field. But—that's another story than the one we have uppermost in mind. The race problem has held the center of the stage during the current week and the discussions have taken wide range—covering every phase of this intricate theme from our status in the war preparation to migration from the Southland and Negro conditions since the voyage of Noah's Ark. Indication as to some of the conclusions reached may be placed before the public through the dailies before this letter reaches the general eye. AS TO TRAINING CAMPS FOR COLORED TROOPS. The deplorable episode at Houston, Texas, has given the military officials and the people at large no end of concern as to what is best to be done about training camps for colored troops. Can Negro soldiers be trained along with the whites of their respective states in the cantonments of the South? One element says "Yes, the safety of any kind of an Ameri can soldier should not be a matter of question anywhere the stars and stripes wave. Every section of the common country should be taught to see dusky faces behind army muskets and Negro manhood clad in battle array." Another element pleads for a change of soil, with a view of avoiding all possibility of racial clashes among the hot-heads of blacks and whites and to prevent outbreaks that may lead to greater friction everywhere. This question was brought to the direct attention of Secretary of War Newton D. Baker a few days ago by a committee of national influence, and representing the highest intelligence and loftiest patriotism of both races. Two of the most prominent members of the delegation were Oswald Garrison Villard, editor of the New York Evening Post, and George Foster Peabody, known far and wide as an exponent of education and civic righteousness. After a long interview between the committee and Secretary Baker, presumably as to the future of the department, the reference to the training of colored troops and the location of probable Negro camps, neither the Secretary nor his callers would indicate to reporters the result of the conference. "Our opinion was unanimous," was the cryptic statement of Mr. Villard—and he could not be induced to say more. He refused to state whether the committee had recommended the training of colored troops in separate camps or whether in the North or in the South. It is known, however that a vigorous protest was made against any species of segregation that would lead to a distinctly different treatment of colored and white troops in the camps, and that there was no strenuous objection to the location of colored camps in the North, if such a course would lessen the danger of race riots and tend to produce a better feeling in general among the people with whom the army had to deal. They agreed to co-operate with the Department in any just movement looking toward an elimination of possible friction in or about the concentration camps in which Negroes were quartered. It is expected that Secretary Baker will shortly issue a statement concerning the policy to be pursued with reference to colored troops and it is also believed that the announcement will be agreeable to the committee. This statement is awaited with much anxiety by the millions of colored people throughout the country. The colored members of the committee which called at the War Department were Dr. R. R. Moton and Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee Institute, Ala.; Bishop G. W. Clinton, of the A. M. E. Zion Church; Dr. A. S. Jackson, educational secretary of the A. M. E. Church; Dr. J. E. Moorland, of the Y. M. C. A. work; Prof. N. B. Young, of the Florida State Agricultural School; Prof. W. T. B. Williams, of Hampton Institute, Prof. John Hope, of Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga., and others. Among the white members, in addition to Messrs Villard and Peabody, were: Bishop W. P. Tirkeld, Dr. J. H. Dillard, Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, Prof. E. C. Branson, of the University of North Carolina; Dr. H. Paul Douglass, of the American Missionary Association, and L. Hollingsworth Wood, of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Colored People.

Says Expert Predicts Famine Condition to Come—Packers Accused of Storing Hogs to Raise Prices. Prohibition is held responsible by some dealers for the newest wave of high prices of meats. They maintain that closing down siddilieries has caused the prices of beef to soar above the figures of Civil War days. Cattlemen have always found it profitable to feed stock on the refuse of grain and corn furnished by distilleries and breweries. With the closing of distilleries in the prohibition States, this source of food has failed the cattle raisers. Grain is too expensive to feed because the farmer can get more for the grain in the market than he can realize in the slight increase in the value of grain fed cattle. Figures show that a steer weighing 600 pounds will weigh 900 pounds for the market if fed on grain refuse whereas a steer of the same weight left to pasture will not weigh more than 700 or 725 pounds. PREDICTS HIGHER PRICES This explanation of the beef situation was advanced yesterday by Patrick Quinn Foy, publisher of the Daily Market Report, and an expert on market prices. He added: "With the closing of the whiskey distilleries on September 8th, the situation will become still worse, and prices will reach figures heretofore never dreamed of." Dressed beef has gone up 2 cents a pound since Wednesday and 4 cents a pound since July 16. Although all meats are from 6 to 10 cents a pound higher now than at this time a year ago, marketmen predict that prices will go still higher before the middle of September. They assert that bishkars of beef will be wholesale. The retailers add that this means that sirloin steaks will cost the housewife 60 cents a pound with porterhouse, chuck and round steaks advancing at proportionate figures. The only possible relief, say wholesalers, is in a reduction of grain prices—relief that Herbert C. Hoover, national food director, alone can bring. URGES GOVERNMENT OCTION Hogs also continue to soar, selling yesterday at $18.60 a hundred pounds, with several shipments at $18.75. This is nearly a dollar above the previous high record for the year. Fattrick Kynne, manager of Murray's Restaurant, said: "The explanation of the rise in beef prices is simple, but I see no reason for the advance in hog prices. The war, the heavy exports to the allies, and the cessation of the Argentine beef shipment to the United States, to no mind, account to rhe advance in beef prices." "With hogs, the situation is different. I believe that hogs, which are easily raised, are as plentiful as ever, and are being stored by the packers in the Middle West. We must come specifically to government control." Charles Grismer, of Brooklyn, president of the United Master Butchers' Association of America, ascribes the situation to the war. He declared yesterday that retail butchers were absolutely free from blame, and cited numerous recent failures as proof that high prices were forcing retailers out of business. Mr. Grismer added: "Now that the whole animal in dressed state sells for 20 cents a pound, the retailer must get 40 cents a pound for roasts in order to break even. He should charge more. The small man is at a further disadvantage because the people in hot weather will not buy soup and stew meat, and corn beef, which requires cooking for hours over a hot fire. To move this meat at all, the retailer must often sell at a loss." Poultry should be cheaper, according to Mr. Foy. He said: "There are 48,000,000 pounds of poultry in storage, as compared with 7,000,000 pounds last year." The retailers, he asserted, were boosting poultry prices to cover losses on meats—New York American, Aug. 18, 1917. OUT OF TOWN NOTES COLUMBIA SHELBYVILLE. Prof. J. B.

Through | all these ages that silent, but relentless, emissary of | , Death has been gathering in its untold thousands of | vietims, and each succeeding year has been seen an alarming increase in the death-toll: of this disease. | Statistics show that every three minutes some one in ¢ the United States dies from consumption. ‘ 7, . 4. ‘ + For years medical science has been looking and : searching and experimenting, trying to find an effec- tive remedy for consumption; but up to the present » decade, the disease has baffled all attempts to stop it, once the gems get a foothold in the human system. | Knowing that consumption has been universally 2 recognized as an incurable disease for so long a time, 2 we do not expect you to believe us immediately when 4 we'say that an effective .relief for consumption has | been found. We did not believe it ourselves when we first heard of it, We said, “It is impossible; itis all Sa fake.” But when confronted with an array of facts : comprising the history of its achievements extending ) over a period of two years, we were forced to give ) up and admit the truth of the claim. J. ‘The medicine is called “Lung-Vita,” which signifies “life for the lungs.” , _ Before allowing the name of the Nashville Medicine Company to become associated with Lung-Vita, a 2 thorough investigation of the medicine was made. In j this way we learned the absolute, unvarnished truth 3, concerning every case brought to our notice in which J’ Lung-Vita had been used; and in making this public announcement of the discovery of Lung-Vita, based ") on the result of this investigation, we determined to 3 present the facts just as we found them and let YOU 2 be the judge as to the value of Lung-vita as a treat- j ment for Consumption. If a medicine for Consump- tion has been found, the world ought to know it, and = it is your duty, reader— you who are reading these j words—to become interested in the matter, whether “+ you or any of your people have consumption or not; 3 because if Lung-Vita has proven to be an effective 5 tueatment for consumption, you should, in the inter- est of humanity, use every opportunity to spread that » information.

Nature produces many luscious fruits, but none more luscious or more altogether satisfying than the tomato. Why it is that poets have not arisen to chant its virtues and its modest comeliness is one of the unexplainable mysteries. Perhaps it has been overlooked by followers of the muse because it is so common, but even so great a poet as James Russell Lowell, it will be remembered, wrote a poem to the dandelion, that "dear common flower," as he called it. But if the tomato has failed to invoke the muse, it does not fail to provoke, with each recurring August, rhapsodic tributes to its toothsome qualities from a multitude of devotees. The man, woman or child who does not like the tomato is yet to be discovered. Liking for it, or a taste for it, is not one that needs to be acquired, or cultivated, but seems to be instinctive. No one's appetite for the tomato ever appears to be satiated. Its superexcellencies are a constant temptation to the use of extravagant language. It is one of the inimitable products of nature, a thing unique, unlike any other of Nature's works. It has a flavor and a quality all its own. It has borrowed from the spectrum the most brilliant of scarlets for its coloring. Its soft, rounded corves are the perfection of symmetry. Its juices are as ambrosia, the food of the god, delectable. It is palatable, if so inexpressive a word is permissible in this confection, in so many ways as to be bewildering. Packed in cans, it has become a house hold necessity and an important art article of commerce. It is transformed into the most delicious of preserves spiced and otherwise, by the fine art of the housewife. In its green and unripe state it is the foundation of the most superb pickles. In no way, however, is it so delightful as when freshly plucked from the vine, it is eaten in its raw state in the garden, with just a bit of salt upon it for seasoning. Ah, that is when words cannot be found to interpret human emotion! There are times when languageis wholly inadequate to express the bliss which surges within the humna breast, and that is one of them! Withal. Nature not alone has been generous in her bestowal of grace upon this lowly but loveliest of fruits, but she has been more than generous —if, indeed she has not been prodigal —in the abundance with which she lavishes thetomato upon us. No garden plant is more easily grown than the tomato, and none yields greater returns. No householder with even so little a plot as six square feet of ground need be without his tomato patch. The tomato thrives under the most adverse conditions, defying neglect, inhospitable soil, drouth and heat. Only to frost and cold is it sensitive. And how responsive it is to kindly care. It is brought into bearing in a little more than ninety days. It is for the tables of the wealth as it is for those of the poor, and in no home, however mean or palatial, does it cease to be both common and a thing luxurious. Praise be, then, to the adventurers who discovered, not so long ago, that the tomato was edible. What had the world missed without such venture some spirits! HOWSE WILL BE ELECTED. Hilary E. Howe will be declared Nashville's choice for Mayor before another issue of the Globe. He has made a clean dignified still hunt which copied the votes. The citizens of Nashville, irrespective of race, creed or previous condition are for him. He is the peoples choice without question. Hilary Howse has lived among the people and they know him to be a man of integrity and honor. They know him to be a man who does things that are needful for the municipality. Hilary E. Howse is kind, charitable, and approachable to all of the people all the time. The sovereign people high and low, rich and poor, black and white are going to see to it that he will have a most magnificent majority. There'll be no run off. HELP ELLIOTT. If you desire clean streets, pure water, and a healthy City, it is your duty to vote for Robt. Elliott. Give the endorsement of a second term, he deserves it for you is certainly on to his job at all times. He is a worker Nashville, and Nashville's varied interest. You cannot afford to vote against a man who gives his whole thought to the duties of his office. Elliott is everybody's friend and the laboring element have no cause for complaint so far as he is concerned, Robt. Elliott, is a believer in fair play to all men. Let's elect him because he is the one man for the place. CHIEF POLICE BARTHELL We want to let the Negroes of Nashville know, that Chief Barthell is squarely on the side of law and order. He encourages no laxity among the police force. He wants his men to see to it, that the most humblest individual is accorded that which the law allows no more no less. The prompt action of the chief, when told by a committee of Negroes of the disorders occurring in the transfer station, was truly praiseworthy. Our hats are off to the chief. Lest we forget, vote early for Howse. Sweet potato pie isnow rife enough to pull. Well then, the watermelon is "smiling on the vine" Oh, joy. But the voter seems to perfer Hilary E. Howse above all others. Now let us all join in that mournful refrain "O, how dry I am." An unwashed eperdermis mingling with the talcum powder is an unholy alliance. Pretty soon, a rich man will have a nervous chill every time he hears the word "taxes." Furthermore, Hilary E. Howse is the man for the people, they know him and he knows them. Verily, the booze industry is en-countering an exceedingly rough and rugged road during these first fall days. And it does make a difference whether the lessons of self-denial are taught in elective or compulsory courses. And, for all the admonitions to the contrary there are occasions in life when one wishes somebody had rocked the boat. Perhaps one reason the republicans in congress are so unanimous in their support of the president is that he is doing the thing that democrats a year ago were accusing Charles E. Hughes of contemplating. We acknowledge the receipt of Des Moines Iowa papers from our soldier friend, H. A. Cameron. Thanks old top, we are hoping that you'll make good and lick the stuffing out of the entire German empire by yourself. When two women who secretly hate each other neet, kiss and call each other "dear"—that's a camouflage. Also its a camouflage when he wears an ace high expression on his face, but holds a king full in his hand. WAR DEPARTMENT The Adjutant eGneral's Office, Washington.

CANDIDATE FOR COMMISSIONER WATERWORKS, STREET CLEANING AND WORKHOUSE COMMISSIONER WATERWORKS, STREET CLEANING AND WORKHOUSE Subject to Municipal Primary, SEPTEMBER 13, 1917 READ THIS BEFORE VOTING READ THIS BEFORE VOTING PETER H. BURGESS Some Reasons Why The Colored Citizens Should Support JOE LIGHTMAN For Commissioner of Streets, Sewers, Sidewalks at the Election Sept. 13, 1917. JOE LIGHTMAN Candidate for Commission of Streets and Public Works JOE LIGHTMAN Candidate for Commission of Streets and Public Works First—Because he has always been a friend to all classes of laborers. Second—Because he represents the masses, being a self-made man, he can sympathize with the man lower down. Third—Because he believes that a public officer should do all in his power to conserve the best interests of the taxpayers of the city. Fourth—Because he believes in retrenchment and reform in them without charging them one cent for any of his troubles. Flirth—Because he believes that extravagance should be discouraged, expenditures should be made wisely and conservatively. Sixth—Because he favors the necessary maintenance of our city, to schools and parks. it streets, schools and parishes. Seventh—Because he believes that the rate of taxation should be diminished, our bonded indebtedness decreased, thus re-establishing the financial prestige of the city; this would invite new citizens to our midst instead of driving them from us to other communities. Eighth—Because he believes in free text books for school children, colored and white alike. Ninth—Because he is a successful business man who has given his customers and employees a square deal all the way through. It is reasonable to suppose that by the employment of the same business methods he will make the business affairs of the city a great success. Tenth—Because he will not discriminate against any citizen on account of race, color or previous conditions. He will have due regard for the cathd taken by him to enforce the law and will live up to the cathd in the most faithful manner. Eleventh—Because he favored colored men in this city who lost their property, their homes, which were damaged for them without insurance, and whose names were on his troubles. charging them one. Twelfth—Because, whenever his employees have been arrested, he would come forward, pay their fines, liberate them and give them another chance. Thirteenth—Because he has been the laboring man's friend. Fourteenth—Because he has paid colored laborers and mechanics from $2.00 to $3.50 per day, that they might sufficiently be able to support their families and educate their children. Fifteenth—Because he will make you a Street Commissioner, a man who will render intelligent service for you. You wouldn't get a blacksmith to make you a suit of clothes, would you? Well, do not put in a man for Street Commissioner who is only a chair warmer. It is your right to demand a man's qualifications. Seventeenth—Because if elected Commissioner of Streets, Sewers and Sidewalks he will faithfully, zealously and impartially discharge the duties of the office without fear or favor for the public welfare. Eighteenth—Because he will not prefer one citizen above another, whether a man be white or colored he is bound by his oath to give such a square deal. Nineteenth__Because he claims he would not vote for a man for Policeman or City Health Officer or for the Board of Education or for Park Commissioner or for any other place if he knew he would mistreat Negroes. Twentieth—Because he will use every power of his office to respect and_protect every right of the Negro and to give him the same fair and impartial treatment that he will give to all. Twenty-First—Because he is bound by his oath to give you the same impartial treatment which the law guarantees to every good citizen. WHY VOTE AGAINST STAINBACK? Let every colored man get himself in readiness, go to the polls on Thursday, September 13th, 1917, and vote against Mr. George Stainback, who has been a parasite to the taxpayers for twenty-five years or more. While he was a member of the Board of Public Works a bill was introduced to increase the salary of city employees from $1.50 to $2.00 per day and to inaugurate an eight-hour system: the Mayor and other members of the Board voted to pass this bill; but George Stainback, who is asking your suffrage, not only fought the bill, but voted against it. Thus you can see as far as the laboring man is concerned he has been weighed in the balances and found wanting. It has been rumored that he made this false and damaging statement concerning the Negro: "AS FAR AS THE NEGRO VOTERS ARE CONCERNED I CAN PURCHASE ANY OF THEM FOR A FEW DOLLARS AND CENTS ON ELECTION DAY."

Bass, a graduate of Meharry Medical College, class '16, who is practicing in Chattanooga was visited by several of his Nashville friends during the League. Dr. Bass is located in the Tadley Building, has a good practice and liked by him, his friends are many and in a few places he is one of the leading physicians in Chattanooga. In his jolly way he says, "Tell my friends in Nashville I am alive and making a living." NEGROES SHOULD GO-OPERATE. Rev. J. P. Robinson. D. D. One thing is certain, as with every other race, so with our race, co-operation is essential to success. But the strange thing is that everybody else is for his own people or nation except the Negro. Now the colored man might as well as content himself with his race and color and work along established and God-given lines for there is no hand than can erase their color or change their race. The lines of racial distinction are as lasting as time itself. Unless you are in co-operative plans and works those plans, he will always be the servant of the other races. The Greek, possibly the last to migrate to our shores is in business only a short while before he grows rich because he learns the Negro's weakness very early and out to take advantage of that weakness. It does not require much experience or observation to realize that the colored man is not only divided but is run down by our race and our weakness in our race when discovered by the other races soon leads to our undoing. It takes a Negro store keeper five times as long to grow substantial as it does a white man. The colored man does not think. What he seems to want is 'white recognition'. He thinks not of the future, takes lessons not from the past but is concerned only in a selfish present. It is conceded by all well-meaning people that the Baptist Publish- Mrs. Frank Ross of Huntsville, Ala., is in the city visiting her sister, Miss Eva Bently, who has been indisposed for a few days. -0- Little Robert Tyree, who has spent the summer at Castalian Springs has returned home for school at 1916 Cartwright street. -0- The receipts of the Nashville Pest Office for the month of August, 1917, were $6,916.149 as compared with $6,144.859 for January, 1916, which is an increase of $4,512.90 or 7.34 per cent. -0- Mrs. Ernest Hart and nophew Carl B. will leave in a few days to visit relatives and friends in Swineau, Chattancoga and Winchester. They will be gone for three weeks and en route home will stop over at Bell Buckle with Mr. and Mrs. Geo Hart. Mr. Tom Porch departed this life August 30. He leaves a mother, father, one brother and other relatives and a host of friends to mourn his loss. His funeral was held at his residence 1413 Jackson street. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Sneed. Those who served as pall bearers were: Luther Perry, John Hodge, Sam Sweney and Emmerson Carney. One of the most unique and successful church entertainments of the season was the height social and Japanese Garden Party given last Friday night, August 31, at the houn of Mrs. H. Scott, 1232 1st Ave. So, for the benefit of Club No. 2. Trinity A. M. E. Church. Quite a near little sum was realized and every body had a good time. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Hall of 1616 Jackson St., accompanied by their daughter, Miss Armay Hall and son, Mack Hall, was in camp in St. Louis, for a week. After leaving St. Louis, they also visited in Kansas City, Mo., and Topoca, Kansas. They were absent from the city two weeks returning Saturday morning. They were back to St. Louis. George Hall and three daughters will leave for Christiana, Tenn., to visit her mother. 0 Little Miss Harriett Drake of Lebanon, who has been spending her vacation here as the guest of her sister, Miss Mayme Drake and her aunt, Mrs. Pete Gordon of Tremont Avenue, left for her home last Wednesday. Her friends regretted very much to see her leave and hope she was accompanied home by her aunt Mrs. Gordon, who will spend a fortnight in Lebanon visiting relatives and friends. —0— Miss Elnora A. M. Majors, 14 S. Hill street returned Sunday, September 2 from Indianapolis, Ind., where she was the guest of Mrs. Wm. Rucker. During her two weeks stay her cousins Misses Julia and Audrena Rucker made it very pleasant indeed for her. Charlotte and Atlanta friends that were very glad to help make her stay a delightful one. On Wednesday night she was entertained by Misses Katie F. and Lilla V. Stokes, her former classmates of V. University. ing House belongs to the Baptists of the United States. Instead of shaking hands, letting the dead past bury the past, and going forth to make a greater success for God and His cause by building up this great institution and the corporation behind it, the blind leaders are trying to lead our people into the idea of putting up another publishing house so that we can make a few leaves and fishes. But it is this kind of leadership that scatters our people and keeps us from becoming a power in the financial world. We must learn to build for coming generations as well as for the present generation. Now these blind leaders are seeking our people Fifty thousand dollars to build another Publishing House when he already has one that is able to support the organization for many years to come. Now where is there any consistency, sense, honesty or Christianity in any such conduct? Should not the race and denomination have union? But they prefer to be divided, sling mud at the ones who are building and have built our present Publishing House and tear it down if possible so that no Negro or set of Negroes can be given credit for building a great and enduring building for the denomination and race. I say to my people, beware of these sharks and do not let them continue to deceive you. Don't you know that if Dr. Boyd or anybody else had stolen a half million dollars of property, he or they would have been consigned to a cell in the penitentiary. But after all this talk you have heard and abuse of him published in the papers, he has not even been arrested. As we proceed in life, somebody is compelled to be rich. Then lets make the Negro rich. The more we build up one another, the more we add to the race and the more we divide the weaker we make the race. Let the Negro cease running from place to place, kill within himself this spirit of disunion, get down to working along business methods and co-operate one with the other whenever possible and his future is assured. —Peoples Defender.

"I had tried various kinds of medicines, but got worse all the time until I was induced to try Lung-Vita. And I will say that this medicine has worked miracles in my case.

The Women's District Convention emphasized the fact that the Union District is blessed with a very proficient ministry. By this proficient we do not mean only physically, prepared to hollow and yell themselves into a frenzy and the people into a senseless emotional fury, but really an up-to-date ministry as it relates to mental, moral and religious attainments. The sermons delivered were all of a high class and bore the ear marks of theological training. The delivery was good, the thought intelligent and the arrangement systematic and the conclusions logical. The Rev. A. J. Steele, the Rev. J. S. Davis, the Rev. W. R. Randals, the Rev. N. Nichols and the Rev. T. W. Washington were the speakers. Rev. J. E.

No student of the race history could have been in the meeting and listened to the sermons, noted the proceedings, watched and observed the fine conduct of the president and the men and women present, but what would have been impressed with the real advancement of the church. We thank God that our ministry is not a braying crowd of foolish asses, trying to frighten a few silly women into shouting, but real gospel preachers. ____The People's Defender. THE TWO WOMEN'S DISTRICT MEETINGS. The spirit of our community is decidedly in favor of regularity and majority rule in the Baptist church. This was emphasized in no uncertain terms last week in the two meetings of the Women's association. The one standing for majority rule presided over by Mrs. Sarah J. Porter, the one standing for minority rule presided over by Mrs. Cynthia Bonner. Mrs. Porter's meeting was an over flow gathering, with representatives from every section of the district. At no time during the session was the large auditorium formed that Sister Bonner's meeting able to accommodate the messengers and visitors. We are reliably inwas a very tame affair indeed, only a mere handful of women. We are informed that they raised something over $100.00, while the women who stand for regularity raised $415.01. This amount come away up near what the incorporated women raised in their state meeting at Camden. This showing on the part of our women is entirely gratifying and proves the loyalty of the womanhood of the state to the principle of the grand old church. With the force of a solid and well regulated hard fighting, unscrupulous lying in the state, Morris and Bookerism have not been able to withstand the onward march of truth and righteousness The People's Defender. THE TW OGUNS It is reported that the Rev. R. M. Caver and the Rev. Wm. O. Davis were the big guns in the incorporated Sisters Union District Associa- that held its session in Argenta, last week, in fact it seems that they were the big guns and the little guns and even the pistols of that very conspicuous occasion, for shooting arms in any form or class seems to have been mighty scarcie. It now dawns upon us just why the Rev. Mr. Caver was so persistent in misleading and leading off a little hand full of silly Baptists in the Union District Association. He wanted to be the big gun. But so inferior in class and range to the real men of the district proper was he until he saw no possible chance by remaining loyal to principle, hence another association in order that he might be in position to be styled a real big gun. As to our friend Davis it is hard to say why he drifted off after a little hand full of irresponsible irregulars unless it is his feeling of real superiority over all the gang, that he would soon spike Mr. Caver's little fowling piece and so become the canon of the entire outfit. At any rate in the camp of the irregular incorporationist the honor are about equally divided between Dr. R. M. and Dr. W. O. with considerable leaning toward W. O. Hurrah for the boys.

JONES THROUGH GEORGIA. Not since the days of the famous march of Sherman, through this old historic state has there been such awakening of the people as has just been caused by the victorious march of Dr. Edward P. Jones of Mississippi, President of the National Baptist Convention. It is true that the march of Sherman had for its purpose the conquesting of the Rebels against the authority of the Federal Government and the emancipation of four million slaves. It is also true that the march of President Jones had for its purpose the sublegation of the rebels against the authority of the government of Jesus Christ and the emancipation of the religious seers from the bondage of autocracy of the would be lords in the church. Sherman succeeded most gloriously and history counts the march as one of the most glorious feasts of the civil war. From all indications Dr. Jones is to be equally successful and will set up a banner inscribed with the eternal principles of church sovereignty that shall be read and glorified in by the young Baptists in all of the coming generations. His speech in Atlanta at the great Friendship Baptist Church, pastored by that eminent and scholarly preacher, Dr. E. R. Carter, was a masterpiece. Darted with genus of Divine truth that shine as the stars in the sky. The Baptists have nothing to fear with such a brilliant, aggressive and progressive leader as Dr. Edward P. Jones. He is fearless, courteous and intelligent. He is able to present the cause and case of liberty-loving Baptists of the nation as perhaps no other man. It seems to have been Divine that he should have been brought forth to head the Baptist work at the time he was. Like Moses, God seems to have had him in preparation in the land of Midian in the desert, under the shadows of Mount Horeb. For twenty years he has been the matchless leader of the Old Fellows of Mississippi, and has just been encouraged over the sternest opposition to his twenty-first term. It indeed encouraging to note that through his solicitation and far-sightedness that Dr. J. B. Gambel, President of the Southern Baptist Convention, and Dr. O. L. Halley are to be guests at the National Baptist Convention to be held at Atlanta. It does not take a philosopher to see that in the coming of these two great leaders of white Baptists sentiment in the south that the National Baptist Convention unincorporated among Negroes has the ear of the world's best thinkers in the Baptist church. It also testifies that the unincorporated National Baptist Convention will doubtless have the sympathy and the co-operation of our great Southern white convention. If the Negroes can make the proper showing at Atlanta in the presence of these representative Baptists then the victory is won for indeed the body of Negro Baptists that can so conduct their affairs as to appeal to the great organized white Baptist church will be in a much better position to do world-wide work and to make itself a permanent and respected body than it could otherwise. And be it known that the great white brotherhood is going to line up with that organization that proves itself capable of doing things for the white man is a genius at accomplishments For twenty years we have watched the old line convention, our incorporated brethren, and have held out to them all kind of helpful inducements, have stimulated them with all kind of helpful suggestions as well as montary consideration, but the Baptists under the old Morris regime have failed to accomplish anything worthy of respect or in any way commensurate with the help rendered them. They have contented themselves to meet in great masses, re-elect by ac HE gave us Hadley Park. One thousand agents wanted. Good money made.

The white people being thus disappointed are, through their representatives, turning their attention to the Jones-Boyd convention with the hope of accomplishing something for the Master. The convention under Jones and Boyd and the other leaders has already purchased a site for a theological seminary and are doing other things in a missionary way, thus these great, distinguished visitors. Dr. Jones is to be congratulated for his far-sightedness and in our judgment should be re-elected to the presidency of the National Baptist Convention. The editor of the People's Defender on account of his worth and work here and now nominates him as president of the National Baptist Convention, and in doing so he recognizes the right of anybody else to offer a candidate if they so desire. For while we are a Jones admirer, we believe in the freedom and majority rule of the Baptist church. We regard that every other Baptist has the right to nominate him a man and to have him elected, if possible, but the editor of the People's Defender does not think it wise to at this time change presidents or even to equivocate. In saying this, however, we do not regard that Dr. Jones is the only man in the Baptist church that is of presidential size. We have a number of men who measure up in our judgment to presidential timber among whom we might mention that eminent and scholarly man the editor of the Union-Review, Dr J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock, Ark. Dr. Woods, of Kentucky; Dr. Camp bell, of Texas; Dr. Jones, of Oklahoma; Dr. Carter, of Georgia; Dr. Clark of Tennessee; these with a number of others whom we could mention would make brilliant heads for our national organization, some of whom Write for Prices.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 7, 1917. MAKE SOME ONE HAPPY. The grand object of every life should be to make some one happy. As disciples of Christ, each one of us should be a sunbeam, brightening the corner where we are. If each one of us who profess the name of Jesus would strive to imitate the examples of his life there would not be a sad heart in the world. Much unhappiness and misery is caused by unkind and unthoughtful words far out-number the wounds caused upon the field of battle by shot and shell. If we would make others happy, we must speak cheerful words, and lend a helping hand. Great many people reserve all of those pleasant thoughts, and kind words about others potted and sealed until the day of their demise, and then they will come and break the bottle over their coffins and bathe their shrouds with fragrance. Many a sad heart goes through this life, dying for the want of a kind word, or an encouraging deed. There are people in the walks of life in the school room and pulpit who are today laboring hard for the uplift of others. Yet their lives are saddened because they are misrepresented, misunderstood and maltreated. No one ever say a good thing about them while they live. No one ever stops to encourage them, but just as soon as they are dead, they will stand by their casket and speak into the ears that are closed to all earthly the things that should have been to them while they lived. Friends, there has been enough sunshine scattered around the coffins of those departed to have made them happy for fifty years. There have been enough cheerful things said around the grave to make this world happy until the charion notes of Gabriel's trumpet wake the sleeping millions from their profound slumber. The time to scatter sunshine is in a person's life time when he can enjoy its beauty; the time to give flowers is while we live, their fragrance cannot be inhaled when we are dead. Let us not defer the good things we have to say about others too late. Let us speak well of the living. Let us shout our appreciation for service rendered to our people by those in public life. Let us not kick the hand that is feeding us. If we would make others happy, we must not become chronic complaints. That person who makes a specialty of complaining is like a dark benighted cloud darkening and wrapping in gloom the sphere of activity in which they move. Let us not be a cloud but let us make of our lives a band of music, sending out pleasure on every side, far and near, to all that can hear the melody that comes from our harp of a thousand strings. Let us not be like the vender of umbrellas who was met upon a rainy day by a friend. The friend remarked to him, "a good day for your business," but the umbrella vender replied to him. "A good day for umbrellas but I haven't sold a single parasol." He would have the sunshine to shine on one side of the street and it raining on the other side, and since it was not, he was dissatisfied. He was a natural grumbler. If things don't come our way let us not grumble; let us look upon the bright side for it will be worth a thousand pounds to cultivate the habit of looking on the bright side. Just laugh and grow fat, for it will be worth your while just to cast a little smile. So just live to make happy by smiling as you go. -Union-Recorder INVESTIGATING COMMITTEES. There seems to be a false conception of this highly important and very necessary duty on the part of those who serve on the committee for the purpose of investigating the moral standing of the candidates, prior to admission into the society of men of high ideals, free from blemish or the point of finger. Now this is as truly a sacred duty as the protecting of one's sanctum sanctorum from the intrusion of a moral reprobate. Ideals are set up, towards the realization of such, all strive with one eye single to their consummation. To permit lax or indifferent methods on the part of two or three to frustrate good purposes and worthy standards is a glaring injustice to the entire organization and cannot be too highly condemned. Those who are appointed to this trust ought, first, to be sensed with the importance of their undertaking, as their is no other function in the building up of an organization so necessary; calling for such careful, intelligent and tactful experience, as the seeking into the reputation of a would-be member. The investigating committee is truly watching over its threshold so that none pass over who are not competent to -perpetuate its principles or tenets and ultimately hand them down to posterity unsullied. An erroneous idea, however, seems to have gotten into the minds of some that all required of them is to interview the candidate, then report favorable to the general assembly. This is wrong from any angle you may consider it. Some advance the thought that vouchers would not introduce into an organization any but trustworthy, upright men, therefore they are only called upon to size up or give the "once over." before recommending him; besides it would discourage and possibly offend the voucher if the committee had to report unfavorably and so it is not policy to follow in detail the real object for which such committee was appointed. Person who are of that opinion ought to be kept on the floor seats as they will surely be the cause of disrupting the organic body. To investigate a candidate it is not necessary to even speak to your man. He will have a very high opinion of himself and it is his privilege; for the man who has not is not worthy of anything. The question is not what he thinks of himself, but what others think. "Oh that we could see ourselves as others see us?" Try to obtain from every available source of information as to his character, as to his words, acts, thoughts, conduct, habits. This is a safe line by which you can accurately and intelligently give a clear straightforward report. Try it the next time you are privileged to pass on one's character as to his fitness for the association of men and advise us how it works Remembering at the same time "He who robs me of my good name" taketh that which does not enrich him but maketh me poor indeed."—The Fraternal Circle. —Union-Recorder. NEGRO SECRET SOCIETIES AND HEALTH. Secret Societies are the channels through which the Negro can best be reached with information relative to the health and sanitation. For this reason, if no other, every Negro who is of proper age and is a good physical risk should belong to some secret society, and every secret society should have a bureau of health, with a most capable physicain in charge, to furnish printed matter monthly or semi-monthly on topics of health and sanitation that most vitally concern mankind. There are many communicable and preventable diseases, which mankind is heir, that may be prevented by putting daily into practice certain rules and regulations in living. These rules and regulations should be persistently taught by printed circulars issued to the members of the order by the health bureau. The Negro has not learned the value of fresh air both day and night; neither has he learned of the vitiating, destructive influence of intemperance. There are so many ways in which the Negro takes disease that could be avoided, provided he was properly instructed and would follow the instruction. He is an easy prey in a multiplicity of ways. He will purchase for himself and family, germ-laden, second-hand clothes, never giving a thought to the probability of taking disease from them. He will often eat food left by others and will drink with joy and satisfaction from vessels and bottles used in this way. All of this comes, in sick or well, often taking use of ignorance. The secret societies are the organizations to serve the race with enlightenment along this line, make better its sanitation, and increase its usefulness, its wealth, its health and its respectability. —Union-Recorder. COLORED TROOPS AND DRAFT. What occurred at Houston last week ought to suggest to the war department great care in the handling of the Negro troops in the war. Readers cannot have forgotten the sanguinary conflicts between Negro and white soldiers at Macon, Anniston and other camps in 1898 and Brownsville later. Rioting against the Negroes at East St. Louis and Springfield, Ill., and clashes between white guardsmen and Negroes at Springfield, O., and Chester, Pa., recently show that it is easy to precipitate these race outbreaks. Congress has seen fit to call an equal proportion of both races into service for the war. The draft affects white and black, alike. Properly handled the colored soldier is brave. His record at San Juan hill was of the best. Col Roosevelt's "rough riders" were saved at Santiago in 1898 from a perilous situation by the Tenth infantry of colored troops. It would be unfair to deprive the Negroes of the south of an opportunity to serve again for Old Glory. At the same time we know from sad experience of the folly of permitting encampments of colored troops in the south, and even about northern cities may be clashes. At Houston the trouble seems to have started with the arrest by the police of that city of a cloured woman, and rough handling the colored troops habitually received from the police. Then about 150 of the blacks "ran amuck" and shot up the town. The exhultation was a poor testimonial to the discipline that they were kept under, and should suggest very strongly that ball cartriges be to colored troops or indeed to any troops only under the best subjection to an arrest. But what of the future? Soon there are to be several hundred thousand of Negroes assembled under the draft in various concentration camps. So far, orders have been received only for white troops. This indicates that a policy of separation is being worked out. The Chicago Tribune, a friend of the Negro, berials what has happened and expresses regret that Booker Washington and other Negro leaders who counseled wisely, are dead. It sees a necessity of every influence being brought to bear to restrain the unruly. The Tribune makes this appeal: "However, there are organizations and there are men who can powerfully influence those organizations—such men, for instance, as Moton, as Braithout, as Tanner, as Chestnut, as Braithout, as E. E. Wilson. If they represent various trees of opulence so much the better. Let then unite to defending that the colored churches, the colored fraternal orders, the colored business men's league, the colored universities, and the colored newspaper editors awaken the whole race to the seriousness of the present crisis, so that every colored trooper will be made to feel that his own people are unanimous in holding him to honorable behavior. Meanwhile let white men who have to do with black troops employ ordinary sense. Let them avoid the tactless, overbearing, insolent attitude that provokes insubordination and violated and give the Negro an opportunity to be straight. Nothing is less is manly. He has come to the most critical moment in his career. Permit him to make good." THE LAST AGE OF TIME. On the beginning of Jesus' Galilean ministry when he went into the synagogue at Nazareth, the book of the prophet Isaiah (Isaias) was delivered to him to read. While the eyes of all the people in the synagogue were seated in the room when he had opened the book, where it was written, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach the deliverance of the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at libery those that are bruised, to preach the captive year of the Lord," and he begins to unto them, this day is this Scripture fulfilled in your ears. Luke 4:16-21 This passage of Scripture leads me to think that we are now living in "the script-labile year of the Lord," and this is the acceptable time to obtain God's salvation for Jesus came in an acceptable day to bless the world. As I foresaid, we are now living in the last dispensation of time, and God's word is now an open book to the world, offering mercy and salvation to every creature under heaven, but its pages will close forever when the Son of man shall come in power and great slow to judge the quick and the slow to judge the quick and the slow after this in which there will be ever gelistic campaigns conducted to get people saved. The great day of Judgment is yet in the future, and also the second coming of the Lord. But he will judge the quick and the dead at his appearing. 2 Tim. 4:1. For he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world. Acts 17:31. The great day in which Jesus is coming has already been appointed but is known only to the Father himself. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Matt. 24:36. Yet there have been false prophets predicting the immediate coming of Christ and the end of the world by fire, but he neevir came, for if people knew that the Lord would come on a day, he would be no need of their watching before he warns us in Matt. 13:35, 26, also in Thess. 5:26 to watch. The final separation between the righteous and the wicked will be made when the Lord appears, so let us who are not ready prepare to meet him when he comes. —The People's Defender. WHY DECIEVE THE PEOPLE? By Rev. J. P. Robinson, D. D. Some years ago the National Baptist Convention of America passed several resolutions to begin a Publishing House. Mind you, they were only resolutions; not a dollar was put up as a bonus to even show good faith. Then we organized a Publishing Board whose business was to get out Sunday school literature. The Board was only organized and finally incorporated under the laws of Tennessee. The concern grew possibly beyond the anticipations of a living man, yet we only asked of the Convention that it give its moral support, which was done. And as we dive into the world further on, it was found more and more necessary to add further and further to our little stock until finally the Publishing House became a strong giant and then the eyes of the "lords" came open. A proclamation has been issued and has gone forth to the Baptists calling upon them to raise Fifty Thousand Dollars by the Incorporated National Convention. These same incorporated Baptists are calling upon the people for thousands and thousands of dollars for their Christian schools and colleges.

The public school system is to be congratulated according to the report. While we are not a prophet nor the sun of a prophet, we venture to predict higher and nobler things for the public school system of the city of Little Rock, since the elevation of that scholarly and splendid school man, Prof. L. T. Gillem, to their head. Let the people of Little Rock rally mightily around their school system and give this young genius an opportunity to develop the educational manhood that there is in him. And, in order that the college forces and especially the Baptists may not be chagrined, let them rise up in the strength of their manhood, and so reorganize their college work, that the work done and the system in vogue will comply with the highest methods of educational procedure, and hence command the respect and commendation of the world about us. For we cannot do much as long as public opinion says that we are old and antiquated and inferior in our educational life. The one man idea of doing things is so nauseating to first-class people everywhere until the people will never rally around an institution whose public record shows it to be a one or two-man machine. The Arkansas Baptist College among all the institutions is the one most severely criticised and therefore every Baptist in the state is humiliated at the same time. A meeting of the Sunday school superintendents was called to a get-together-meeting Thursday night. There was a very enthusiastic meeting. The librarian asked for the cooperation of the superintendents in order that more people might be reached. All superintendents pledged their support and last Sunday, September 21, in the different Sunday schools was discussed for at least fifteen minutes. The value of our Library. Short talks were made by all superintendents present. The Sunday schools and the Library believe, "One should chase one thousand and two put ten thousand to flight." Story hour will start in October.

What is the sense of this notion except it goes to show it is the money they are after and that is what they hope to get? At the time we first thought to build a Publishing House we never expected anything except literature and value received, and this we get. No one will deny that is all we got when we worshipped at the white man's altar and bought his books and now? In our own Publishing House we are employing more than one hundred skilled and unskilled laborers, paying them fairly good wages and they are all colored men and women, persons of our own race. When we worked and bought literature from the white brethren, probably two colored persons, not more than three, received financial benefits from our action. Dr. Vass, of the field, one female in the cloak room and possibly one Negro who acted as janitor. The trouble is, there are some of the so-called leaders among the white men who become dictators of the whole denominational work. But it is unlike real Baptists to accept of a dictatorship and the Baptist church as a body will never wear the yoke of dictatorship without protest. Now, as long as there is a foot of ground at 523 Second avenue, North in Nashville, or a brick on the spot owned by the National Baptist Publishing Board for the National Baptist Convention, I shall be there to give it my patronage. Do not ever shoot your taw too far in the grass, out stand by the thing that we have made through our co-operation so that the entire race may learn how to climb. This lesson of helping each other seems hard for us to learn as a race as we must learn it as a people we must learn it. The thing that has kept up as a people is not our engaging in politics, but is the lack of co-operation that is prevalent among us. It is the policy of the Baptist church that the people must rule, but the rule laid down by the incorporators is that seven men must rule and others may be added as such time and place as the dictators may suggest. But this kind of doctrine will never be accepted by a real Baptist church as it does among the funamental principles of the Baptist church and has the courage to stand beed by those principles and convictions. -The People's Defender. OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS In the educational report given by the National Commissioner, Hon. Thomas Jesse Jones, of Negro education and schools for the last fifty years, the public schools that have the industrial features attached to them fared much better than a number of our colleges. For instance, the Gibbs High School of Little Rock makes a much better showing in the report than either the Arkansas Baptist College or the Philander Smith College, or even Shorter College or Argenta. The cause of the delinquency on the part of our colleges seems to be especially due to the incompetence of the management, as well as the deficiency in the organization of the teaching force and the weakness of the teaching force also. The report shows that the Arkansas Baptist College is managed by the President and while it admits that the books and records are kept in harmony with the system of the Home Mission Society, it also states that the system is incompetent and antiquated and now at all in harmony with the progressive idea of the present day.

THE HOUSTON, TEXAS DISTURBANCE The police force that constitutes the civil authorities of Houston must not be very far from the stage of barbarism to possess no more human spirit than to mistreat an invalid or in other words a person who is weak and helpless and of a different race from the intruder. We all regret that anything of the kind has happened and we say if these officers are so inhuman and so anxious to do someone a bodily harm let them go to Germany and subdue them and receive world-wide renown. The Negroes, to a great extent, are invalids and it takes a very little to subdue them, only kind treatment. We are as loyal to the flag today as ever. We believe that the forty-colored soldier who were indicted by the Harris County grand jury should be set free and congratulated, because if any woman needs protection, it is the Negro women. We again repeat that we regret so NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 7. 1917. very much that such a thing happened at this time or at any other time, but the part that we feel should be regretted most is the act of a strong, robust man mistreating a poor, helpless Negro woman. The people of Houston and especially the Negro people should feel very much outraged over this affair. At a time when we are being called upon to shoulder our muskets and go abroad to free those weaker nations from the clutches of the stronger and mob, lynching and inhuman treatment continue at our door. —Murfreesboro Sentinel IS THE NEGRO A MENANCE TO OR A CITIZEN OF THIS REPUBLIC? This is a question that needs the thoughtful consideration of every member of this race. When we consider the number of times he has been mistreated, viz., lynching, race riots etc., it seems that he is a nauseance rather than a citizen but this has been very strongly spoken of in the Mobile Daily Iems which is a very strong publication against lawlessness and crime. Under the head AN INCONSISTANT POSITION. The Iems says: The Negro is an integral part of our population and he numbers many millions, most of whom live in the south. He is a human being and under our constitution a citizen of this country to be protected by laws. The sober good sense of the white people of this country should be exercised and brought in to play to put down all attaches on the Negro. We go into a world war to free Europe from domination of autocracy and anarchy and at home find something of that sort of lawlessness practice by our own people. It is an Inconsistent position; just such words will hasten the day when Mobrule in the south will be in disfavor. When public sentiment is arouse against it, the MOB will no longer put our civilization to shame. - Murreesboro Sentinel. A HOME SPUN LUNCHEON.

The speaker objects to the extremes in the range of the tun. He further complains that "America" is objectionable in that it is "an old German air," while at the same time he is not very strong for "Tipperyar." "We've given to the war the best men we've got.

COMPLIMENTARY STATISTICAL FACTS The year 1915 is shown to be the healthiest year in the history of the country by the United Census report on vital statistics for that year issued a few weeks ago. The death rate in the registration area was 13.5, having dropped from 19.8 during the 35 years since the establishment of the registration area. It is noted, however, that the rate of decline of the death rate is slowing up; the year 1914 was 13.6. Some of the health experts are of the opinion that the reports for the years 1916 and 1917 will show even an increase over that of 1915. A separate table is made for cities in which Negroes compose more than 10 per cent of the population, for the reason, as some of the deaths among Negroes are earth rate among Negroes, influences favorably the general death rate. One writer in commenting upon this remark that the death rates of a community is very materially increased by a heavy Negro population. The race in his opinion, has not adapted itself to the disease of American community life; but that it is gradually doing so he admits that other observers have found evidence. The lowering of the death rate among babies is credited with the greater part of the improvement in the general death rate.
