NASHVILLE GLOBE. OPENING OF NASHVILLE'S MANY SCHOOLS. VOLUME XII. A. AND I. STATE NORMAL. The Agricultural & Industrial State Normal School of this city began its annual session September 24th, with prospects brighter than ever. Never before in the history of the institution has the present early enrollment of students excelled that of this year. The present record of enrollment, which constitutes principally new students, records an attendance which fills the respective normatories to their accompanying capacities, with applicants in the person of new and old students yet to arrive. Through the far sight of President Hale regarding the scarcity of food, during the summer hundreds of gallons of vegetables of different varieties were canned and preserved by student labor to assist out the food situation and emphasis will be leaved upon the conservation of food through the year, which is in consequence with the individual and of every loyal and patriotic citizen during the present crisis of our country. PROF. W. J. HALE, President A. & I. State Normal. The faculty has been reinforced and those constituting same are specialist along their respective lines, It is very much in evidence that it is a singular personal desire of the student body generally to specialize along the different industrial or vocational lines, which the school is profoundly noted and offers, but most especially is the agricultural course sought by the students, and it is predicted that this department will be more prominent, as well as the Mechanical Department, than ever before. President Hale extends personally and open invitation to every citizen of Tennessee to inspect at their disposal the work that is being done by the bright student body. The state officials, by virtue of the fact that the State institution has proved and is proving to be a capital investment, express themselves as being completely satisfied with the superior type of vocational work which is done at the State Normal under the eminent supervision of its president, in the person of Prof. W. J. Hale. ROGER WILLIAMS Roger Williams University begins its session's work Wednesday morning. A large number of students were present at the opening. President Townsend stated that the outlook is good for a successful year and a large attendance. There are only a few changes in the faculty for this year. The already strong faculty has joined the department. Rev Wm. T. Amiger, D. D. Ex-President of State University of Louisville KY, who can take charge of the Theological Department. Dr. Amiger is a brilliant scholar, an educator of experience and under his charge it is expected that this department will be greatly strengthened. The opening exercises were informal. The opening sermon will be preached Sunday afternoon, September 30, by Rev John S. Glmore, D. D., of Columbia University. That a large number of people from the city will be present to hear the sermon. FISK UNIVERSITY HAS AUSPIC. OIENING OPEN. President McKenzie is Pledged Loyal Support. The formal opening of Fisk University yesterday followed the usual course, but the spirit of that opening was neither conventional nor ordinary. The outstanding feature of the day was the pledges of loyalty made to President F. A. McKenzie in open meeting after the conclusion of his annual address to the students. The day began with the registration of students. Two hundred and fifty-seven were registered as against two hundred and thirty-six on the corresponding day last year. At 10:30 o'clock in the morning the students and faculty went to jubilee lawn for the annual flag-raising exercise. Away up in the tower a cornetist blew "The Star-Spangled Banner" while the national ensign was drawn slowly to the top of the flag-staff on Jubilee hall, the audience standing with bared heads. The prayer was offered by Rev. Joseph N. Haskell, and then Dean C. W. Morrow, who introduced, the university editor, Isaac Fisher, who delivered the flag address. Running through the whole address was the thought that the ideals of the American nation are beneficent and great and that all citizens of all races may well be proud of them. "When you judge a nation," he said, NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY---THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. "you must judge it by the definition of its ideals as revealed in the writings and utterances of the highest types of her citizens, and not by the words nor practices of those who have not fully caught the vision of what the nation does represent. Judged by this standard, the ideals of the United States, as I read them in our great documents of state, are worth living for; they are worth dying for." "The men who founded this nation had it not in their hearts to found any save a government of righteousness, of justice to all." President McKinxie is Pledged Loyal Support. Leaving the flag-raising exercises, the audience went directly to Livingstone chapel. Dr. George E. Haynes gave a talk, defining the conditions under which students can best study. The usual devotions were had, and then President McKenzie delivered his annual address. It was a personal message to the students. Dr. McKenzie first paid tribute to four teachers who had remained at the university practically all the summer, without vacation, to help see that every thing was ready for the comfort of the students and teachers when they returned. Dr. McKenzie discussed the means through which the kingdom of God can be brought to earth—practical ways of living, practical religion in duties and relations with each fellow. He concluded this thought as follows: "God in you and in your work! It is not yet apparent what you shall be. Neither what you shall become, but living in the presence of God, fighting to overcome the temptations of the Prince of Darkness to laziness, irregularity, unruliness, extravagance, all sorts of evil, pressing forward toward the mark of the high calling set for Fisk University, you each will become builders and founders of the great university foreseen in the days of civil strife by the prophets of vision. Without vision of this sorry your stay at Fisk will be in vain Without vision the person perish." Here Dr. McKenzie had the students to stand and as he talked further to them of their duties in the world crisis, of the great services which men can perform when they co-operate with each other, he asked them to signify their desire to belong to and in the kingdom of God on earth by raising their hands. The moment was impressive, and as soon as he closed the address, Rev. George W. Moore, a trustee of the university, was on his feet, and, tremulous with emotion, said that if Fisk is to endure, it must be by an adherence to the ideals just upheld by Dr. McKenzie, and speaking for the board of trustees, in a sense, he wanted to pledge anew to the president of the university to be a possible for the conduct of the work at Fisk. He was not in his seat before J. C. Napier, another trustee, was telling the audience that under the leadership of the man who had just outlined the new work for Fisk, the university is certain to prosper and grow in influence; and he stated with great emphasis that the board of trustees would stand solidly behind Dr. McKenzie in the conduct of the work Following him, Dr. George E. Haynes pledged new loyalty to the president of the university on the part of the faculty. When all were seated, Dean C. W. Morrow was asked to close the meeting with a few words. He expresses his desire to pay a tribute to Dr. Frissell's memory, the two having been classmates together in Union Theological Seminary. Turning to the president, the dean said that in spirit and character Dr. McKenzie was closely akin to the deprived Frissell. WALDEN UNIVERSITY Former students and many new ones are entering for class work, which began on Thursday morning. The prospect is that the student body will exceed in numbers that of last year by fifty per cent. The formal opening exercises will be held in the college chapel on Monday, September 31st, at 10:30 a.m. The public is cordially invited to attend these exercises. All buildings have been renovated, more space added for new students, a new floor laid in the dining hall, the walls of which are to be refrescoed. The faculty, including new members, are all on hand for class room work. The music department will entertain faculty, students and other interested friends with a piano riff on Friday evening, October 5th, at 7:30 o'clock in the college chapel. FORTY-SECOND OPENING OF ME HARRY MEDICAL COLLEGE On Tuesday Mehary Medical and Dental College began the forty-second session in the history of this notated institution. At 3 o'clock p. m., the venerable and honored president, Dr. Geo. W. Hubbard, and faculty met nearly seventy-five students in the Freshman Room. Dr. Hubbard. In his characteristic way, told the story of the beginning of the school 42 years ago, when he and the late Dr. W. J. Sneed, a southern white man, who served as surgeon in the confederate army four years, began the work. After Dr. Hubbard different members of the faculty made remarks, congratulating the new students and the other ones who came to the school. In the plans of the school the president spoke touchingly of the sacrifices and the privations made by the Mehary Brothers to earn and save the money which made the beginning. He said they hated slavery, whiskey and tobacco and in honor and respect for the policy of the school is against these deadly foes to human well-being. The policy of the school NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1917. is, that tobacco will not be used on the grounds. A pledge would be submitted to each student to refrain from the use of strong drink. To impart professional knowledge is the object of the institution, but religious training would calm a part of their time through the Y. M. C. A. and monthly services which will be held at the Meharry Auditorium the second Sunday in each month. The department in pharmacy will open on October 9th and then the dedication of the New Anderson Anatomical Hall will be placed on October 19th. This event looked forward to with a great deal of interest by the two thousand and more of Meharry graduates who are now doing effective service in nearly every state in the union. The city of Nashville as "The Athens of the South" was strongly emphasized, but that there are places in this city where medical students should not frequent was pointed out to the new men who come for the first time and to the other men he have spent years in the institution. Nashville is also a city of splendid homes and it would not be easy to find cities where Negroes own more comfortable homes than in this city, still there are places even in this city of Nashville where Mehary stained out of the city. The churches of the city were commended to the student body, and they were encouraged to select the church of their choice and keep to the front in their religious life while pursuing their profession studies. Perhaps the president of Meharry Medical College keeps in closer touch with his graduates than is the custom with most professional schools, wherever he goes he makes it a part of his business to call on any graduate in the town or city and find out for himself just how such graduate is succeeding. The boys, as he sometimes calls them, are always glad to welcome him. If by chance they learn that he is coming into their city, they will arrange an impromptu reception and nearly every graduate in the place will be present to meet him and by their presence express gratitude for services received at Meharry. These receptacles are bright spots in the life of the president, and this recital is only a feeble echo of the encouragement which he receives when he meets these groups of successful, grateful men. Meharry is sending out nearly one half of the professional men who are prepared to care for the health of our people. The men are generally successful. They work among the foremost financially. They build beautiful, comfortable homes. Many of them enter heartily into the church work about them and into the general uplift work in their communities. This in addition to their special profession services places them among the leaders of the race. Their gratitude to the president and the institution has often been expressed in words, but in recent years some of the more successful ones are now expressing their gratitude in deeds. Fifteen years ago the late Dr. J. B. Dickson left all his belongings to Meharry. A few years later the late Dr. R. F. Boyd left $7,000 to Meharry and Hubbard Hospital Then Dr. J. W. Anderson and wife of Dallas; Texas, gave $10,000 to erect the Anatomical Anatomy Hall and the graduates generally pledged and are paying in $10,000 as a free will offering toward the Meharry Endowment Fund. Thus the gratitude of the graduates is a vital factor in the life of the institution. HALEY Sunday was a very gloomy and rainy day but some of the faithful members made their way to the church. Rev. J. V. Seabastian preached at eleven o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. John Rogers spent the afternoon with Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Halliburton.

The Galeda Class met last Wednesday night at the residence of Miss Lucile Bowling, 1626 Cedar street. The resident called the class to order at 8:20; had song and prayer. The teacher, Rev. A. W. Porter, being present, the lesson was discussed for forty minutes which was very beautifully catechised. Next in order were quotations and dues which were responded to very liberally with a good collection. The president then discussed the business of the class as the contest is almost at a close the Galedas are working very hard to win. After all business and the class had been dismissed, the hostess, assisted by little Sarah Cook, served the class very royally with an ice course. Miss Bowling is one of the new members and a very faithful member. She certainly entertained the class highly. About twenty-two members answered to the roll call. Had one member, Mrs. Lizzie Dawson, and a visitor, Rev. Bryant. HUBBARD HOSPITAL CLUB The regular monthly meeting of the Hubbard Hospital Club will meet Monday, October 1st at 4 o'clock at the usual place. A full attendance will be required. G. W. Hubbard, who wishes to make a statement of interest to the club. MINNEHAHA VICTORIOUS The celebration at Payne Chapel last Sunday of the Minnehaaha and White Rose Clubs was a glorious success. Quite a deal of interest was shown by members and friends and as usual the Minnehaaha's won. They have been challenged again and again and every time they come out victorious, never having been defeated. The two clubs started out to raise fifty dollars aplece and ended with more than twice the amount. The White Rose Club counted and twelve dollars and the Minnehaaha's one hundred and fourteen dollars. The two clubs, counting the odd cents, raised two hundred and twenty-seven dollars. Dr. C. V. Roman delivered the address of the occasion and it was well received by an appreciative audience. He spoke on Law, which seems a dry subject. But Dr. Roman knows how to do things and when he had closed his address the audience was well pleased. It was spicy and highly entertaining. Mrs. H. A. Cameron and Mrs. H. J. Johnson modeled two very beautiful solos. All praise to Nashville's sweetest singers who captivated the congregation. Below is the history of the Minnehaaha Club showing the great work it has done. History Minnehaha Club. The Minnehaha Club was organized January 17, 1912. It was organized to help needy branches of the church. Since that time it has been in a position to help every department of the church. When the new church was built, this club did its share toward carrying the burden and has always done so, down to the present time. Among a few of the things done by the club are the coverings for all the floors—Trackers for the main auditorium, drugger for the pastory, study and laundry for the vestibule. The complete floor in the basement of the church and also the Individual Communion Set were other very needed gifts. The Stewards and Sunday school too have been greatly aided financially. When the great East Nashville fire took place, this club raised and donated out of its treasury over sixty dollars to the members of the church. Quite frequently the Minnehaha has gone to other churches and helped them by giving concerts and entertainments. Truly it has kept its entertainment. "Not for self alone." This has been a very busy club and the members have striven to do everything that is in keeping with progressive clubs of the day. Since organization it had very few changes in administration. The club is composed of eighteen members and friends of the church who are striving to help the church, benefit the community and to be a blessing to the race. The other departments of the church as well as the officers have always been willing to lend them a helping hand on to victory. During its entire lifetime it has never been defeated. Nothing has daunted them—or on and on through thick and thin, through cloudy or pleasant weather have marched on to victory. The total amount raised by the Minnehaha Club and turned over to the church is one thousand one hundred twenty-two dollars and forty eight cents ($1,122.48). that go to make an ideal soldier. The western World- Reporter that breezy Negro newspaper printed in the Bluff City has the following to say coming our boys: BRAVE TENNESSEE TROOPS DO ING GUARD DUTY AT THE HARRAHAN BRIDGE. The brave boys of Company G, Tennessee Infantry, on duty at the new bridge connecting the thirty people of Arkansas with Tennessee and the busy life of a busy city, the gateway to the south and southwest and the great Mississippi Valley and rich Delta Country. Monday afternoon, Sept. 17th, the editor visited the camp of Company G, along with Mr. J. Pappadak and friends. Mr. Pappadak is proprietor of the New Orleans Cafe, the finest and oldest cafe in Beaulieu avenue, operated especially for colored patrons. Mr. Pappadak was much impressed with the cordial greeting extended by Capt. Hadley and his staff of officers and the boys of Company G. and he presented them with several boxes of fine cigars. Capt. Hadley and his staff will be tendered a banquet and reception at the New Orleans Cafe in the near future.

The League endorsed the migration because of its system of degrading, robbing and terrorizing the race in the South, and urged that the churches and other bodies look out for conditions when employed. The next annual meeting will be held in Chicago, IL. Every city is urged to organize a branch of the Equal Rights League and notify the corresponding secretary. Y. M. C. A. The Y. M. C. A. is gradually becoming the center of attraction for the young men. Many of the students upon reaching town are wending their way to the "Y" and the majority of them are taking rooms there.

This movement was begun sometime ago backed by the government, the National Council of the Defense, and every fire prevention association and organization throughout the United States. It was apparent to everyone interested that to let any of our food-stuff or resources be carelessly destroyed by fire would be little short of a crime at this time. In this State the movement was backed by the Governor, the Conservation Association of Tennessee and this Department, and before long the work will have been completed. Practically all of the inspectors—some 56 of them who donated their services—report that the citizens of the State, owners of this class of property, express a willingness and desire to co-operate in every way in the work. Suggestions made by the inspectors concerning the reduction of fire hazard in various plains have been instantly complied with. A general clean-up has followed many instances, thereby saving from the flames卸勿 quantities of supplies that will be needed by our people and our country in the prosecution of the war. The fire loss in the resident portion of the cities and towns is far greater than it should be, and in most instances, is caused by neglect on the part of citizens in falling to keep their premises clean, papers, rags, etc., being allowed to accumulate in closets, garrets, carts, and the careless handling of matches. Citizens should be careful in the use of all kinds of furniture polishes, gasoline and inflammable materials, and should destroy rags after having used same in cleaning furniture, as they are subject to spontaneous combustion. Before stoves, grates and furnaces before using a fire in them this Fall. Use metal receptacles for depositing ashes. Clean up your premises before the inspector from the Fire. Prevention Department calls on you. ED. M. GILLENWATERS, State Fire Prevention Commissioner. September 21, 1917.

Nashville Office, Frost and Frost, Inde- nent Life Building. Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 28, '17 FIXING PRICES. The way of the price-maker is a hard one, whether it is wheat, meat finished food products or fuel charges he is adjusting. Sometime ago a commission fixed the price of wheat produced during the present year. The adjustment was reached by a series of compromises. The price named represented a marked increase over the price usually obtained by the grower in the piping times of peace. In establishing a minimum price the commission practically established the price of bread men will eat during the coming year. Bread is an important item in the average family bill of fare. Even coal miners use bread. The effect of the first action also was felt in the matter of meat, because meat cannot be produced without fodder, and if fodder prices are to be high, the government to increase the meat production must necessarily fix a price on meat that will make it profitable to feed steers and pigs high-priced grains. Even coal miners eat meat. It also is an important item in the average family's bill of fare. Therefore the third problem of the price-fixer is reached. A price of fuel has been fixed. The important item of cost in production of fuel is labor. Labor claims that the cost of living, the cost of actual life necessities has increased to such an extent that miners must be paid an advance of from 20 to 30 cents a ton for producing coal, and a call to a conference has been issued for September 25, the purpose of which is "to consider an increase in wages." The conference will be held in Washington, at the convenience of Dr. H. A. Garfield, federal fuel administrator. The mine operators are not making the path easy for the doctor. They have let it be known that they will not oppose an increase—if the coal rates are increased accordingly. When the price fixing schedule was first announced, it was predicted by retailers that no change in the retail prices would follow, and that coal laid down here would cost practically as much as formerly. It was said that price was not bothering people so much as deliveries. Those that have are ready to pay, if only they have the opportunity. It is said now that a program for distribution has been worked out between the various states. What effect the new disturbance in the coal situation will have will not be known until the labor conference is over. Whatever the effect, the situation as to food and fuel is a disturbing one, that must be met with a degree of compromise on the part of labor. Capital and the consumer. No large amount of price reduction can be looked for from the price fixers, because the fixing of prices is merely relative. If food prices are increased, the man who eats food must get a larger compensation to operate. And if the wages of labor go upward, the products of labor naturally will cost more. The American dollar is having as difficult a day of it as the price fixers, and it's just as well not to pitch hopes for high wages and low cost of living too high Mr. Hoover is not to be considered in the light of a magician. The economic facts are plain and unchangeable. If wheat costs more, the labor in the mills costs more, and the product costs more. It is well to keep the facts well in mind in measuring the distance to be traveled by the food administrator. Mr. Hoover is merely a man, juggling with first cost items that have a tendency to hop upwards for perfectly tangible economic reasons. It is just as well to forget the supernatural in the matter of price fixing. When the food administration or the fuel administration announces that through a voluntary arrangement with somebody or other the American public is to be saved $30,000,000 a year, it looks fine until your chance to figure out that your share of the saving will be almost exactly 30c. The arrival of those 70,000 Negro troops on the French front will be similar in more than one respect to the appearance on the horizon of a dark cloud, no bigger than a man's hand. It is believed that when the ward politician shuffles off this mortal coll, he will be entertained by his satan's majesty who has planned many social activities in honor of his expectant guest. Now that the election is over, most of the ward patriots will have ample time to provide the necessities of life for their families. One reason the house usually just passes the bills on to the senate to pick to pieces is the reasonable certainty that the senate would do that, anyway. The Russian army consists of two kinds of units, the striking battalions and the safety first battalions, of which the latter are the more numerous. There are two kinds of intangible assets of which the poor man has one kind and the rich man the other. Nobdy ever gets the full enjoyment out of an indulgent habit until the doctor has told him to cut it out. If music induces cows to give milk what effect would a jazz band have? It was only in ancient times that beauty was as deep as the skin. The campaign liar will now proceed to rest from his arduous labor. The political preacher may now re turn to his congregation. But, the election is over anyway.

Chicago, Ill. There are so many so-called hair-growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding on what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven value. Quinacid is highly medicated poison that has stood the test of time. It is the invention of a New York chemist, and is made under the personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist of many years' experience. Quinacid stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. It makes the hair soft, smooth and glossy and easy to wear and the style desired. To get the best results from the use of Quinacid the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and contains no animal fat of any kind. It lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. Quinacid leaves the hair soft, fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp, unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on use Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. If your drugist or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler. The price is 25c each. Write to Seeby Drug Co., 79 East 10th street, New York City, for a sample, mentioning the name of this paper.—Adv.

CHURCH It has been many a day since Payne Chapel has been stirred as it has been the last few weeks caused by the spirit of rivalry between the White Rose and the Minnehaha Clubs in their campaign to raise some money for the church. The rally closed last Sunday at a special service held at 3 o'clock at which Dr. C. V. Roman was the principal speaker. The White Roses seemed to have been confident of reading up to the latest majority of the members who had noted the sharp contest, were of the same opinion. But when the pastor, Dr. J. A. Jones, read the figures handed him by the two presidents, it was seen that the Minnehaha club was $1.78 ahead. This was the signal for such an outburst of applause from the "squaws" as has not been heard in Payne Chapel for a long time. They reported $114.01, and the White Rose, $112.23. These two clubs set out to raise $100 to assist in a small way. The members of the church. The result of the rally showed that they raised $126.24 more than they had planned to collect. The church has now organized to pull off a stewards' rally to terminate the third Sunday in October. Mrs. Henrietta Gee is Captain of the men, and Mr. William Stockell leads the women. This will be known as the War of Veterans." Every denomination of the church will from now on until the gavel sounds for the conference to assemble. October 24th at St. John, Nashville. Rev. J. H.

TABERNACLE NOTES The Galeda and Metoka on the eve of their pastor and his wife's departure from the city pulled off a unique banquet. When the Metoka served the Galedas corn bread and molasses, the Galedas served the Metokas ice cream and cake. An impropru program was rendered. The teacher, a wife both dressed with the Galedas Rev. H. M. Burns, being the teacher and Mrs. Burns a member. Quite an enjoyable evening was spent. After which everybody was served ice cream and cake. We were very pained to lose one of our loyal members of the Galeda class, President of our B. Y. P. U. and a member of our Choir in the death of Mrs. Burns. The number attended her funeral. The floral designs were many and beautiful. Rev. Gilcrease preached quite an interesting sermon Sunday night.

Nashville and Spruce Street Baptist Church held their meeting at the Fireside School headquarters, on Monday afternoon, September 24th. There was a good attendance and the occasion was one of spiritual, practical and social interest. Mis. Eaton gave a Bible lesson on the sixth chapter of Daniel and prayer was offered by the school ladies brought a good supply of rags which were torn into strips and sewed together to be crouchetel into scrub rags which will be used in the Red Cross hospitals in Europe. A busy couple of hours were spent, and light refreshments were served. YOUNG WOMEN'S MISSIONARY UNION On Monday evening, October 1st, the Young Women's Missionary Union will hold its regular meeting at the Fireside School, 612 Gay St.. at six o'clock.

Ellington's disc course Sunday morning. Rev. Ellington is preparing a series of sermons the first of which includes a lecture on the service October 7, 1917. These sermons no doubt will attract large crowds. ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH. Dr. and Mrs. J. G. Robinson are in Murfreesboro conduct a great revival, so a report from Mrs. Robinson states to the writer. They are having a successful meeting at the A. M. E. Church there. While a dide meeting of two weeks at the above church was conducted and twelve or fifteen souls were saved. This means a great loss to the kingdom of satan and a gain of no small value to the Christian army. Mrs Robinson with her God-fearing manner, her Christian character and womanly zeal, a woman brinful of courage, a strong determination to one who dares to do the riggt; that arise; a woman with loty ideas; push, forward over the oppositions whose courage is undaunted; a Christian wife and worker; and the race, who the world with all of its laws and disenchantment to journey by the side of the man she pursues as a helpmeet. Mrs Robinson has a sweet voice, one that响响 the listener, one that lifts the burden from the weary and wounded hearts; a great and broad mind and heart; a missionary in the true sens of the word. next week a great meeting opens at Payne Chapel A. M. E. Church, of which Rev. J. A. Jones, D. D., is pastor. St. John is putting forth four strenths efforts to repair and renovate in general for the annual conference in October 23th to 28th, inclusive.

On Thursday night September 20th, a reception was tendered Rev. and Mrs. Haynes. The members waned this pleasant surprise to their pastor and his wife because of the loyal services they have rendered for them for the two past years. The addresses made by Drs. F. A. Stewart, A. M. Townsend, Revs H. L. P. Jones, W. S. Ellington, Bros. E. T. Brown, J. B. Singleton, J. P. Porter and the vocals all rendered toward making this occasion one of the most enjoyable functions ever held in the old Spruce Street Baptist Church. Indeed so enthusiastic was the reception and so high were the words of praise of these worthy honorees that it was with difficulty that the Rev. and Mrs. Haynes regained composure sufficient to give expression of their gratitude for the kindly spirit exhibited by the members and friends of the Spruce Street Baptist Church. For the past two years Rev. and Mrs. Haynes have manifested a very great interest in the Sunday school! by taking an active part in class work and co-operating with the teachers and officers in the promotion of the systematic methods in order to give the greatest good and benefit to those entrusted to our care and lead them on to lives of usefulness. The religious education of children is the most important work entrusted to man; and we can not train young minds successfully unless the shepherd of our flock in the work. Our faithful pastor has spared no pains in doing his duty in our church. He has a faithful and successful service behind him and a bright and promising future before him. We love him for his broad heartedness; trust him for his fidelity and devotion; follow him because of his honesty and high Christian purpose. Three cheers to our pastor. WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION The Woman's Missionary Baptist City Union will hold their regular quarterly meeting at the M. Arat Baptist Church, Rev. D. B. Butler, pastor, Friday, October 5, 1917, at 3 p. m. We are asking that all of the presidents will be on hand and will use their influence to have their members to attend. The board members are also expected to be present, as this is the last meeting in the year it is very necessary that all officers attend. A very interesting programme will be rendered. You will also be treated to echoes from the National Baptist Convention by our worthy divines, Drs. C. H. Clark, H. M. Burns, J. L. Harding, G. B. Bolden and other missionaries who were in attendance. Our city missionary, Mrs. A. H. Clarke, will be with us and will make her report, showing the splendid increase we have had to our City Union this year. Last but not least, all attending the night session will have the pleasure of hearing Rev. Richard Morton, of Taborcina Baptist Church, who with his spiritual fervor and earnestness has given the hearsers. Visitors will be welcome. Mrs. H. M. Burns, President. Mrs. A. V. Marshall, Cor. Sec. ALL ABOARD FOR THE STATE FAIR. Fairs, circuses, mass meetings and gatherings of all kinds have always appealed to us. We were present at all the "speakings" held at the corner of Sixteenth avenue and Jefferson street, during the recent election. At one of these "speakings" we heard a prominent gentleman of this city, who has been honored with the highest position attainable by our people, give bits of interesting Negro history, which he wrote a history of Negroes, for Negroes that our children may know something of the race to which they belong, instead of poring day after day over the deeds of other peoples and being taught by the dictionary that a "wench" is a a "young Negress," when every one with any sense at all knows that the word "wench" dates back to early Elizabethan days and that Shakespeare, who probably never saw a Negro nor a Negress, uses the word numbers of times. In the hair and the more comely the form of the bar mails, at the various inns, where the immortal hard took his drinks, the more of a "wench" he seems to have thought them. At another of these meetings, we heard a popular undertaker make a speech for fair play and square deal for Negroes that may be equalled but never beaten. At the conclusion of his speech, we remarked that he could not have done otherwise, as heritage would tell, and he had certainly gotten more than books from the Negro legislature, whom you would certainly find at the root of his family tree, if you dug deep enough. No. indeed, we can not vote, nor have we a desire to do so, though when the returns were in at the recent election we wished we had owned a vote to give to Howse, so Gupton would not have been so close to him. Neither can we say it is good form to attend these speakings. However we went, because we like to feel the throb of the heart of the world. We feel that we are a part of the whole and as a part we want to be found at our post. We have no patience with the "Rust-outer." Housekeeping has taught us that the more the kitchen knife is used the keener the edge. For that reason we wanted to go to the State Fair. The man who lives at our house and promised to time he could spare, however, in a conversation over the phone we found that the Lady also was a "progressive" soul with a desire to know what the other women had learned during the year that she had not, so to the Fair we went, prepared to spend the day. The ride out was comfortably unevenful. The necessary preliminaries were made without mishan, the man took our tickets and we went in. And the people! .! From the gate looking toward the main building was a sea of faces. I gasped. Even the Lady who is something of a Globe trotter commented on the large attendance. All the while every cry car was bringing more people to add to this number. We went straight to the Women's Building and found that their handwork compared favorably with that shown at the exhibit in the Y. M. C. A. in the spring. Their handpainting was on a par with their hand sewing. One handmade crepe de chine set consisting of gown, teddy and netted was almost perfect and certainly beautiful. We viewed with a quilt valued at forty dollars. We lingered near a fern about four feet in diameter valued at four dollars and wended our way to the culinary department. Mrs. Wilson was demonstrating winter decorations for the table. Out of a carrot she made a buttercup. Out of a long white turnip she made a white jonquil. Out of a round turnip she made two or three roses. One of these she left white and stained the others pink by immersing in a bowl of pink coloring. She then filled a basket with parsely and arranged this assortment of "vegetable flowers" just as you would flowers from "Joys." The effect was very, very unique. Traversing the annex from the Woman's Building, admiring as we went, the Lady led the way to the "Canning Exhibit." At this exhibit I laid aside restraint, and breaking all the boarding school rules I ever knew, and pointed with my fingers, by way of emphasizing my remarks. Even the lady who is sedate at all times grew very enthusiastic. This exhibition was canned by the girls of Davidson County and was a beauty. A jar of carrots had every face turnout, outward making it look like a thousand of Beans. We were canned in different designs. Corn was canned on the cob. A jar of relish had the initial "H" in the center of each side. Pears gleamed in clear liquid. Each jar vied with the other in beauty. As we left the Lady stated that her intention of mentioning the canning subject to one of the many clubs of which she is a member. The Corn Exhibit was a beauty in itself. We saw a watermelon which weighed 67 pounds. A jar of vinegar five years old was such a beautiful amber color we thought it honey. A barrel of apples that have not been named yet, according to the man standing guard over them, were much guarded high sounding names. In fact the whole agricultural exhibit was wonderful. Down stairs we saw the chickens. Plymouth Rocks, White Orpingtons, Black Milnorcas, Rhode Island Reds, White Leghorns, Brown Leghorns and several other breeds vied with each THE STAR HAIR GROWER WONDERFUL HAIR DRESSING and GROWING One thousand agents wanted.

Occasionally a hen who was an advocate of women's rights is also a part of the lime tree. We would sing. About this time we had our dinner after which we felt reinforced for the pleasure that lay before us. Miss Stinson was to fly after dinner, "Was to fly" aptly describes Miss Stinson's attitude during the whole week, however, we took our seats and viewed the races while mechanics made Miss Stinson's machine over. We didn't nothing preemptive in mind that we would race the horse. We saw several. We think the races must have been "free for alls" as our horse, that is the one we bet on, ran in six races and won four. He was a beautiful brown horse a little heavier in the body than a race horse should be. However, his shoulders fitted closely to his body in a pretty curve and his neck had just the right arch. Our reason for betting on him, however, was that his driver wore a bright green jacket with a shield on his back. He was so very easy to pick your horse out when they rounded the home stretch, for the bright green jacket of the driver could be easily seen. When the racing was over, Miss Stinson went up, but as she went up something that should have stayed up with her came down and in a short while she came down after it and stayed down. Or course it was not her fault. Such things always would happen. Only a few days before, we laid aside all decorum and took our place in a vacant spot among the Jews, street, watching what we thought was Miss Stinson, till the back of our neck beaked, only to pick up per next morning and find that Miss Stinson succeeded in putting a few feet from the ground, the previous day and flew to the direction of Murray. We were so disgusted that we have never made an attempt to find out at what we were gazing. From the races we went to the Live Stock Exhibit. We had the real Fair spirit by this time. The Lady bought a pound of grapes and we were on the lookout for ice cream cones. We walked till we were tired and the hogs continued to get larger and the cows more valuable. One hog with a string of blue ribbons the width of his pen weighed 1,300 pounds. He may have been able to stand on his feet but we did not see him do so and do not believe that he could. He was a chimp with a length of five minutes in grunting feebly. We suppose that the grunt started out a strong grunt but got lost in the rolls of fat on the inside. This hog was a Duroc Jersey. We saw a Poland China standing on his feet said to weigh 650 pounds. The champion milch cow was a Jersey, a beautiful animal who gave last year 4,671 pounds of milk; the profit on her from butter fat contained therein being $133.65. We noted with interest the large number of children present and the intelligent interest displayed by them. One little girl insisted in stroking a big fat hog the other little follow we proclaimed his father he was very glad he was brought to the stock. Fortunes were represented in that live stock and white children are trained to know fortunes when they see them. Coming out I almost kissed a very pretty black and white spotted cow who was entering by the same door. Of course this show of affection was perfectly accidental on both my part and the cow's and happened because I was looking one way and going another while the cow was being steadily guided on her way by her keeper, who had her head under his arms. The Lady happened to be walking and was going to the attempted kissing was wholly and solely my maneuver. In the vicinity of the main building we found that the crowd had increased. It was impossible to go fast --- 9 CHLARY E.

The Lady had a small bag of salt peanuts and we had candied popcorn. We started daintly eating piece by piece a slowly progressed on our way, but some one jostled against us and the paper came off, after which we nonchantly nibbled till all was gone. We fully intended having our fortune told, but we were afraid the germs collected would kill us before we could collect the fortune in store for us, so we left no wiser, as to what is in store for us in the future, than we were when we went in. However, we are a disciple of the doctrine, "All's well that ends well." Though you must do your part to see that all ends well. Having reached the Midway we proceeded to visit the shows, we saw a sign saying "Jujie Lingers" and ended our way there. The performers are in when we got there but very soon they came out. There was a high brown, low brown and a black supposed by two angular male performers. The manager described their abilities in all the words known to a graduate from the school of expience. We were treated to a specten of "Walking the Dog." Now we have seen the dog walked lots of times and we are at the conclusion that just as there are high-bred and hybrid dogs so there must be high bred and bybrid dog walks and this specimen was decided in the last named class. The performers, the manager, in fact the whole outfit proclaimed very loudly the need of an emergency laundry at the Fair Grounds. The very darkest member of the troup was encased in a pink cheesecloth, over daring red bloomers with a red bow on her head. In another tent we saw Lewis Love, born in the South Sea Islands, age 39 years, height 29 inches, with the general appearance of a spider. He gave a complete history of himself and wrote his name on the wall of his home. We saw also a frog-headed baby, an elephant-footed boy, in fact, a whole tent of freaks. About this time my very high heels that I had been standing on all day began to complain. As we progressed, the complaint became more insistent. When we reached the ferris wheel we thought a ride would help, but we compromised by riding on the whip, a device that is all that the name implies. When you alight you are thoroughly whipped. After the whip the Lady casually mentioned her feet. We decided that if they could stand it a little longer we could too, so we stayed and gave ourselves up to the pleasure of looking. It is so nice to be a member of a big crowd where you can stare all you want to. We left the grounds about six o'clock, having done the fair thoroughly. Arrived at home we kicked our shoes off at the gate, asked the little boy next door to bring our key and entered the house Hastily making ourselves comforted we started for the kitchen, for men must eat, though the heavens fall. The phone rang just as we were passing and the other member of the family informed us that he had al ready eaten his supper and was on his way to the movies. He stated he would be home about nine-thirty. He weighed a sigh of relief and proceeded to rest. DICKSON. Mrs. Julia List and Miss Doy List have returned from Craggie Hope, Tenn.

THE MEANING OF THE WHITE MAN'S VISIT TO THE NEGRO CONVENTION (NATIONAL). The presence of Drs. Gamble and O. Hally, president and Secretary respectively of that great organization of white Baptists known as the Southern Baptist Convention, in our National session just closed at Atlanta, is but added evidence of the business and painstaking care and investigativeness exercised by the white man before he takes a plunge into any cause or gives his moral of financial support to any project. As representatives of the great white Baptist family, anxious to be of service and help to their Negro brethren, they were doubtless searching for the truth as it relates to the unpleasant differences so prominent and injurious in the family of Negro Baptists of the United States. To the NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 28. 1917. THE MUSEUM OF THE WORLD'S FINE ARTS observant and intelligent mind, their visit both to the Convention at Atlanta and to our rebellious brethren assembled at the same time at Muskogee, said many things among which may be mentioned (1). That the white Baptists are anxious about the welfare of the Negro Baptists. (2). That the white Baptists desire to help the Negro Baptists. (3). That they desire to assist that contingent of Baptists whose practices are in keeping with the teachings of the New Testament Scriptures as taught by Jesus Christ and practiced and taught by the fathersfathers. In fact they really desired to know in a first hand way who represented the National Baptist Convention among Negroes, the incorporated or unincorporated bodies. While we do not here venture to even guess what will be their verdict, yet we are quite sure that the unincorporated convention made a good impression upon them, for the truth of things were stated and facts presented without any whitewash or cringing and the truth usually wins with unbias and intelligent minds. At any rate our white brethren through their representatives are to be both congratulated and thanked for their high mindedness and interest they so unselfishly manifested in our welfare. THEIR ZEAL FOR MONEY SLEW THEM. It is reported upon what appears to be good authority, that the badge sellers and money gatherers and holders of the finances of the incorporated Convention just closed at Muskogee, Okla., went South with something more than two thousand ($2000) dollars of the Conventional proceeds, which act caused a mighty stir in Zion. Men even came to blows, if reports are to be credited, and accused and abused each other unmercifully. The matter seems to have become so foul until the veteran president went home on the pretext of being sick before the final proceedings of the Convention. Well it is nothing more than we expected, for in our judgement the men handling the financial end of the incorporated convention have been rotten for wears, and that answers largely in our opinion for that body not accomplishing any thirst during these past twenty (20) years of its existence. The spirit of graft and greed seems to have eaten them up. Our belief in the truthfulness of these very evil reports is strengthened, when we remember that this same gang of blood suckers, for no other reason than to piller and plunder and graft have been putting forth their most strenuous endeavors to get into the money drawer of the National Baptist Publishing Board. Men who would rob the denomination and the race of a commercial enterprise of the magnitude of the Publishing House, would not hesitate in our opinion to steal a dime off a dead man's eye. Thank God for a genius like R. H. Boyd, who in the constitution of things, saw far enough to put this great enterprise out of their reach. We venture the assertion that the Publishing House under their management and direction would not run six months. That class of human beings could not stand for $50,000 every three months in cold cash to pass through their hands without swiping a large bulk of it, and their records would never show which way it went. It would be like secretary Hudson, and Treasurer Stoker records, when their auditor called upon them. They would declare that they paid it out without even taking the receipt from the man who got it. THE NEGRO BECOMING A COMMERCIAL FACTOR. The Negroes are fast becoming real factors in the material worth and development of our country, this was evidenced in a very marked way, a few days ago in the state of Arkansas near Pine Bluff in the county of Jefferson, when a Negro by the name of Joe Ross, a Negro farmer purchased a farm of 604 acres from J. A. Clement, a white farmer for the neat and respectable sum of $36,240. This is only one instance in many not only in Arkansas, but in all the Southern States where farming is carried on extensively. This passing of large fertile tracts of land from the white man to the black man is very significant and speaks volumes in the economic and social development of the race. Gradually the Negro is taking his place within the front ranks of men. With such material development, the Negro need not be uneasy for he who owns the ground will ultimately control the affairs of the Membership Costs Only $ 6.00 A Year ground. Negroes, take courage, buy farms and cultivate them, for therein is the open door to success, material possessions is the key that unlocks most doors here below. This Negro was born a slave, the son of slaves. What will the sons of freemen accomplish in the next half century? Among the many things that ought engage man's attention is making the first step. This has been done by the National Baptist Convention that adjourned a few days ago in Atlanta, Ga. Possibly there is no place in the South that will give better accommodation than the school and campus just purchased by the National Baptist Convention of the United States. One long felt need is accomplished in that we have provided buildings in the city for four brick buildings containing sixty-five rooms, seven acres of land, all have been bought for $25,000. If there is any denomination in the world that ought to be proud and lifted up it is the Missionary Baptist. Now that we have accomplished this much, we must not sit down but must go and do greater service for all over our land we need an enlightened ministry. We are praying for the time to come when every church shall have as a pastor and leader, a man called of God to preach and teach; this is the kind of man that will give the church the demand. And that is the aim of this school, to give to the denomination an able and evangelical ministry and other Christian workers. The Convention through its educational board having purchased the grounds and buildings must proceed to the next step. This first step taken ought to enlist help and sympathy from every Baptist in the country who sees and knows the needs of his or Rolleves CATARRH of the BLADDER and all Bischarges in 24 HOURS that may be found here in the City.

Miss Claybrooks is the leading stage director in the city. Don't Miss It. ADMISSION 10c Greenwood Park Sunday, BIG ATTRACTION The following from the Stemphe World-Reporter is illuminating: Mr. Quintard G. Miller, formerly with the Irvin C. Miller Company, was on the job today on show business, and called upon the office and incidentally looked up local performers, preparatory to setting the No. 1 Miller show upon the road. Probably few persons would place "Fun in a Boarding School" among the most successful of the products of the prolific brain of I. C. Miller, but it has many admirers and serves to entertain those who worship at the shrine of this fun maker. Miller disports himself in a rollicking way, and sings and makes merry, and adds to the uncertainties of the situation by his devotion to his comedian, Dink Stewart, who is always hungry. He capers with agility and gives the audience an impression of real youth and sprightfulness. Blanche Thompson and Esther Bigeon, whose smiles are worth millions, and a chorus of ten girls contribute to a notably good finale.—Philadelphia Tribune.

We were highly honored in having to participate upon our program, Prof. Clark, who is connected with the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. His address was full of information concerning state progress not only in the state of Tennessee but throughout the country. He referred to other races and gave comparisons proving that regardless of the Negroes disadvantages, his progress had been second to none and in most instances excelled all other races. At the close of this excellent address the audience was favored with a solo by the Perceptress, Mrs. L. J. Johnson, which was beautifully rendered. In President Johnson's address to the student body and friends, special emphasis was placed upon loyalty and service from both faculty and students in both faculty and students of life, school life and community life. His uniring efforts to be spent in furthering the work and impressing Turner College's ideals and purpose. The proof for the necessity of fostering the life of Turner is to be noted by the interest demonstrated by the community people of both races. A well prepared faculty has been selected for the purpose of giving her students the best. Turner College is to be congratulated upon having for its leader, President L. J. Johnson, whose wealth of experience in college life and training coupled with his great life as a churchman can only mean a great service to an institution of this kind.
