"MOTHER CONFERENCE" AT
"MOTHER CHURCH"-ORGANI-
ZATION PERFECTED-CITY
PULPITS TO BE SUPPLIED.
The fiftieth session of the old "mother conference" of the A. M. E. Church met Wednesday mornings in historic St. John, which is also the "mother church" of the denomination in the state of Tennessee, Bishop B. F. Lee, D. D., presiding. The ministers and delegates began to arrive Tuesday, a number of whom were candidates for admission into the conference and the examining treasurer. The delegates are being areed for by all the churches of the denomination in the city, although St. John is bearing the greater share. The conference was opened with the usual religious exercises, embracing the delivery of the annual sermon by Rev. and the administration of the Lord's Supper. The Bishop was assisted in these exercises by the presiding elders of the conference, Rev. G. L. Jackson, F. W. Gardner, J. L. Edwards and W. H. Porter, and
The conference was organized by electing the following clerical force: The bishop announced the following committees: State of the Church, L. J. Johnson, C. H. Boone, H. L. P. Jones, B. A. Baley; State of the Council, W. H. Young, U. S. G. Brown, J. B. Foxall, A. L. Pinkston; Presiding Elders' Support, J. A. Jones, J. D. Sinclair, G. W. Hodge and Presiding elders; Judiciary, H. L. P. Jones, C. C. Campbell, S. L. Howard, W. A. Adherson; Admission, J. A. Jones, A. Whitworth, W. L. Ledford, J. M. Newsome; Dollar Money, J. H. Smith, S. J. Howard, M. E. Jackson, W. A. Anderson, N. Smith; Public Worship, F. W. Gardner, G. L. Jackson, Sr., I. J. Edwards, W. H. Porter, J. H. Smith. The following constituted the conference Board of Church Extension: I. J. Edwards, F. W. Gardner, G. L. Jackson, W. H. Porter, Gasto, Burges Henry Kirby. Board of Education: J. A. Jones, L. H. Johnson, G. W. Martin, C. H. Boone.
A public reception was tendered the ministers and delegates Wednesday night at which time a highly entertaining program was rendered, consisting of welcome addresses by local citizens of the different professions and rare musical selections by some of the best talent of the city.
All the city churches of the A. M. E. denomination are contributing to the entertainment of the conference by serving dinner each day at the church. No dinner will be served at the church on Sunday. The delegates will take the ministers at their regular lodging places.
It is very likely that the visiting ministers will fill the various pulpits during the Sabbath, not only of the A. M. E. Churches but of most every denomination. Those pastors who desire a preacher assigned to his church for the Sabbath will apply to the committee on Public Worship not later than Saturday morning.
Conference will probably adjourn Monday night, at which time the appointments will be read out.
There is already some considerable talk of some prominent men being transferred out of the conference, and others being brought in to take their places. This will mean that he be a shake-up in the Nashville pulpits. There is also some talk among the knowing ones that the complexion of the bishop's net will undergo quite a radical change. In this event some of the present presiding elders will be assigned to certain Nashville leading pulpits.
The following persons, representing different professions, institutions and organizations, appeared on the program at the reception Wednesday night:
On behalf of the citizens, J. C. Napier; St. John Church, C. B. Webster; Schools, President V. J. Hale; Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance, Rev. W. R. Step'en : Business Men, W. M. Hawkins; Artillaries of the St. John Hatti Cartwright; Professors, Dr. L. H. Hampton; A. M. E. Ministers' Alliance, Rev. W. A. Anderson.
There are about two hundred ministers and delegates in attendance, besides a large number of visitors who usually attend these gatherings. It is thought that the appointments will be read out Monday night at St John Church where the conference is being held.
REV. SLAUGHTER MEETS WITH ACCIDENT
While returning from the meeting of the Executive Board of the state convention, Rev. John Slaughter, a member of the National Baptist Publishing Board, met with a very painful accident. It occurred at Lake Providence on the Nolensville Pike. He with a number of ministers, was walking down the pike, when a man approached on horseback, running over Rev. Slaughter. It is said Rev. Slaughter's leg was broken near the ankle. Rev Slaughter was removed by some of the friends to a nearby house and medical aid was called. He was kept there all night and removed to his home in the city the next morning by his son. A number of the friends have expressed their sympathies and called constantly upno him.

NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE.
NEGROES CALL ON SEC'Y. M'ADOO

40,000 CITIZENS OF NASHVILLE
REPRESENTED—MUCH IN-
FORMATION GIVEN—FARMER'S
LOAN BANK DISCUSSED.
Fourteen representative citizens formed themselves into a committee representing the forty thousand Negroes of Nashville, and called on Secretary McAdoe at the Commercial Club Tuesday at three thirty o'clock.
The committee was ushered into the assembly room of the Commercial Club, where they waited the arrival of the Secretary of the Treasury. Hon. J. C. Napier, Ex-Register of the Treasury, who is personally acquainted with Mr. McAdoo, acted as chairman of the committee and spokesman. Mr. McAdoo was introduced personally to each representative and extended greetings. After the formal introductions he was called upon for a speech, to which he responded. He declared he was especially interested in the Negroes of the United States and that he admired their industry, loyalty and devotion. He paid a high tribute to those employed in the Treasury Department at Washington and stated he felt sure his administration saw a larger number employed in the department than during its history. The burden of his address, however, was a full explanation of the validity of a government bond. He declared that a government bond was better than money in the bank, better than a note on the government, better than a savings account. In fact, Mr. McAdoo labored earnestly and yet interestingly throughout the address to unravel the knotty problems that some had wanted to surround the Liberty Bond. After finishing with the bond issue he volunteered information on the Farmer's Loan Band, saying that it was designed primarily to help the farmers of the United States, irrespective of color "The Government of the United States is looking at best it can after the interest of every citizen and we feel that the colored people of the United States are going to do their part, their whole duty in every respect, just as they have done in the past, just as they are doing in the present, just so they will do in the future," he declared.
The personnel of the committee was W. N. Sanders, secretary of the W. M. C. A., Henry A. Boyd, assistant secretary National Baptist Publishing Board; Dr. Geo. E. Haynes, Fisk University; Dr. E. B. Jefferson, Mr. J. C. Thompson, C. N. Langston, assistant cashier One Cent Savings Bank; E. L. Price, Merchant Tailor; A. N. Johnson, undertaker; Dr. F. H. Martin, J. C. Crawley, W. H. Oden, real estate agent; J. C. Napier ex-register of the treasury; J. W. Grant, attorney-at-law; Rev. W. E. Flington, pastor First Baptist Church East Nashville. While Mr. McAdo was much taken up, it being a busy day in the city, the committee resenting the Negro citizens had no trouble in making the arrangements for this conference. Secretary McAdo paid a high tribute to the Sacale Templars at Little Rock and took occasion to mention he was presented with a fifty thousand dollar lark check at Little Rock by the Moa Sacale Templars for the Liberty Bonds. He said he felt it was perhaps one of the most striking demonstrations to the loyalty of the people.
REV. J. A. SHARP IN OKLAHOMA
After being absent from the city over a month, during which time he toured southern Illinois and Kentucky, Rev. J. A. Sharp returned to the city Monday morning. After spending a part of two days he left immediately for Oklahoma, where he will be the guest of the Progressive Baptist State Convention, which is to convene in Muskogee, and of which the res. S. S. Jones, D. D. is president. Dr. Sharp stated while in the city that he would spend about a month in the state, after which he would go to Chicago where he would conduct a large teacher training class that has been arranged for him, and he would perhaps not get back to Nashville before Xmas. When asked whether he intended to conduct another teacher training class the coming winter he stated he was and that in all probability it would be a record breaker.
R. H. BOYD IN THE NORTH.
During the week Rev. R. H. Boyd has been visiting the state convention in the Buck Eve State and this week he is in the Quaker State attending the Pennsylvania Baptist State Convention. These two state conventions, according to what was learned at the headquarters of the National Baptist Publishing Board, have staunch representations of the Baptist denomination and Dr. Boyd's tour at this particular time is regarded as significant. The Buck Eve people hold their meetings at Cleveland and it is understood that they gave Dr. Boyd a rousing reception. After the adjournment of the meeting he went to Columbus, where he was the guest of Rev. Elbert W. Moore D. D., seending Sunday and Monday i the Ohio capital. While in Pittsburgh he will be in charge of Revs. J. C. Austin, W. H. C. Messer, W. T. Hell with a number of other staunch supporters of the denomination, with which Dr. Boyd is so well identified.

K. OF P. BOOSTER CAMPAIGN
WELL UNDER WAY.
DEPUTY FITE IN WEST TENN.
The great Booster Campaign recently launched has been the occasion of marked activity in Pythian circles during the past few weeks. In West Tennessee this activity is particularly apparent.
During the recent visit to West, the Field Deputy, Sir A. W. Fite, met with several leaders and outlined plans for much important work. In company with Sir T. H. Hayes, Wayman Wilkerson, and L. E. Brown, the Field Deputy motored to White Station where the party was entered by Sir S. J. L. Clark and T. W. Walch told the members of that community. From White Station, journeved to Cordova. At this place A. S. D. Cockrill and James Newby met the party. From Cordova the tourists went directly to the thriving town of Collersville, where they were entertained at dinner by Sir Chas. C. Hodges. At each of the towns mentioned, important matters pertaining to the welfare of the order were discussed with entire satisfaction to all. The membership of these communities is taking advantage of the liberal dispensation granted by the Grand Chancellor and in a very short time there will be a marked increase in the membership in the west.
Sir J. H. Brown the efficient Grand Master of Exchequer and L. E. Brown, the secretary of the Endowment Board are to hold meeting at White Haven, Sunday for the purpose of arousing new interest in that section. Lagrange and Grand Junction will be visited by Sirs B. M. Roddy, G. W. Williams, T. H. Hayes and L. E. Brown.

Sir Sirs Bond and Frank Read of Brownsville are at work, organizing Red Seal Lodge at that place. Sir J. W. Lodge who is a member of the Pythian Temple Commission is shelling the woods in and about Madison County. He has added many new members to the order since the last Grand Lodge met in Nashville. D. Cockrill and Jas, Newby of Rising Sun No. 169 are out to double the membership of that lodge this year! In Knoxville, Sir John Singleton has organized a new Lodge At Rockwood, Sir John Liggett has added a new number to the order Sir. N. N. Revnolds, G. L. has set up a new lodge at Moscow.
One of the most important events at Nashville during the last few weeks was the visit of the Grand Worthy Counselor, Merys Cora E. Burke. Her mission was in the interest of the Pythian Temple Commission. The meeting was a splendid success in every particular. The success was in the interest of the Grand Chancellor. Those present were, Mrs.Cora E. Burke, Mrs.J. A. Lester, Mrs. Clemmie White, Dr. J. P. Crawford, G. C., Hon. J. C. Napier, Grand Attorney, Sir A. W. Fite, Field Deputy Grand Chancellor, Sir A. N.

DEDICATORY SERVICES AT MEHARRY
DEDICATORY SERVICES AT MEHARRY
ANATOMICAL HALL COMPLETED
—DR. AND MRS. ANDERSON,
OF TEXAS, BENEFACTORS—
MANY PRESENT.
October 19th was a great day in the history of Meharry Medical College.
The dedication of the new Anderson Anatomical Hall and the New Dental Annex claimed the attention of friends of this noted institution throughout the city, state and nation. Distinguished churchmen and educators were in attendance. Bishup Thomas Nicholson of Chicago of the M. E. Church, delivered the dedicatory address, Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the Department of Education of the National Government Washington, D. C., Dr. E. A. Mckenzie, President Pisk University of Religion, Dr. Hambleton, actin Dean of Vanderbilt Medical College Dr. E. A. White, President College College, E. B. Chapelle, Wake School Editor, M. E. Church, South School Editor, D. B. Scott, Professor for Africa, retired, Dr. J. D. Hamilton, Treasurer board of M. E. Church South, Bishop C. H. Phillips of C. M. E. Church, Rev. Geo W. Moore D. D. Rev. J. C. Price, visiting members of Congregational Council including distinguished men from many states occupied seats on the platform with Dr. G. W. Hubbard and Faculty.
The Meharry Orchestra furnished music for the occasion. Bishop Scott led in her prayer. Because of pressing engagement Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones could not remain to witness the entire program. He is perhaps the best informed man in the U. S. on education among Negroes. The program was slightly varied and he kindly consented to speak to the student body. Dr. Jones paid a blessing tribute to the efficiency of the work done at Meharry as shown by the representatives of the school in all stations of the country. He emphasized that fact that this character of the work done here by the direction and under the supervision of Dr. Hubbart had produced and developed the donors whose gift made possible this occasion. He exhorted the studentbody to imbibe freely of the spirit of the president of the institution.
The President, Faculty, students and friends felt honored in having so distinguished and well informed educator to thus address them.
In the classification of colleges for Negroes in his report for the U. S. Government Dr Jones placed Meharry as one of the three colleges doing exclusive college work.
The dedicatory address by Bishop Nicholson was a clear presentation of facts and illustrations which clearly showed that to have an opportunity was no guarantee that an individual, race or nation would use it. By illustration he said that the wealth of this country had been embedded in her hills', mountains, plains and fertile valleys for acres, but the American Indian who once possessed it all did not improve his opportunity to develop it and the opportunity was seized by others. He urged his hearers to use well every opportunity presented and assured them if they did not others would come in and take possession.
This age he thought might appropriately be designated an age of service.
The Nashville Banner thus describes the occasion:
Yesterday was an especially happy day for those interested in the progress of Meharyan Medical and Dental College. In this, the forty-second year of the school's history, the realization of those in charge have been perfected.
Through the generosity of one of its graduates a handsome and much-needed building has been erected at a cost of $10,000, all of which has been paid by this former student and his wife, Dr. and Mrs. James W. Anderson of Dallas, Texas. Through the donations of many others interested in the work of the college a fund of $7,000 has been raised, with which an annex to the dental ball has been built. It was in celebration of the completion and occupancy of these two new buildings that yesterday's exercises were held.
The services were conducted at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon and were held in the Meharry Auditorium. The exercises were opened with the audience singing "How Firm a Foundation" and a prayer was offered by Bishop I. B. Scott.
Dr. George W. Hubbard, president of the college, was chairman of the exercises and after giving a brief sketch of the life of Dr. J. W. Anderson, the donor, and the history of the college fro mts beginning, he introduced several speakers, the first of which was Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the United States bureau of education.
Dr. Jones spoke in the most glowing terms of the "hero of the institution, Dr. George W. Hubbard," and urged the entire student body to be strict to every idea for which Dr. Hubbard has forty-two years of his life. He pointed out the great work that can be done by the graduates of such schools as doctors and nurses, especially in this, the greatest crisis of the world's history, and quoting, "There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole," he urged them to become servants of humanity in

LADIES AUXILIARY OF RAILWAY EMPLOYES PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION
RESOLUTIONS
On the morning of October 22nd, 'he friends and acquaintances, received with profound sorrow, the intelligence of the death of Mrs. Roxie Porch, the wife of Chas. W. Porch, and ex-president of the Ladies' Auxiliary Association.
Her career was one of great usefulness and was closely associated with the growth and development of the Ladies' Auxiliary of Railway Employees Protective Association.
Her life was one of great service and her personal interests were, many times, sacrificed to the good of her public activities.
So zealous and prominent was she in matters pertaining to the welfare of the Ladies' Auxiliary, even now it is difficult to realize that she has departed from the scenes of the living and left us as silently as the sun light departs from the hills.
She filled such a place in the public view, the vacancy created by her death is not soon to be filled; she will need to recite, at this time, the record of her public usefulness. Her Christian and charitable works are all around and about us; her name will be treasured here, and certainly her memory will remain fresh with us and be forever cherished by those members of the Ladies' Auxiliary Association who were privileged to be associated with her, therefore be it.
Resolved that the members of the Ladies' Auxiliary Association and officials, being deeply impressed with the loss sustained in the untimely death of Sister Roxie Porch, desire to record their esteem for the qualities that so distinguished her as so noble a Christian character. Be it Further Resolved. That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the Ladies' Auxiliary and furnished to the family of the deceased, and also the daily papers of this city.
Committee: Mrs. Emma Laws, Mrs. Mary W. Long, Mrs. Anne Bowling, Mrs. Anne Cartnell, Mrs. Mollie Blanton.

“Deliver
Us
From
Evil”
--the age-old prayer of childhood at mother’s
knee.
Let its gentle spirit of whispered devotion and
appeal tug at your heart and purse-strings °
today.
It is the appeal of the world to the God of
right and justice to deliver it from the menace
of Prussian destruction today.
Yet the might of the gray host of Hohenzol-
lernism is wielding itself to make that prayer
a travesty.
The Master Himself, in giving that appeal to
the world, taught that “prayer without work
is dead.”
Just as the old Crusaders sought in times}of
old to bring Christianity and ri,ht to a heath-
en world, so will you with your Liberty dol-
lars help to achieve a triumph over a depot-
ism that is seeking to enslave a world with
the doctrine that “Might Makes Right.’’
“Deliver us from evil’’--make thy childhood
prayer your prayer. Make it a moving, living,
breathing force. YOUCAN DO IT TODAY.

SAVE THE TOTS.
In line with the conservation of our national resources is the campaign of education carried on since 1910 in regard to the care of the health of babies, particular attention having been paid to the little chaps at birth and for the first year of their existence in a world full of danger for them. The campaign is bearing results—gratifying ones, considering the difficulties placed in it way by doting parents and fond reatives, who hold to the opinion that as they were raised without the new fonged notions of health conservation, the present day little fellows ought to get along safely under the same treatment.
But in spite of opposition the infant mortality rate has been reduced nine per cent in the last year, taking the country as a whale. In the larger cities, where health regulations are more easy of enforcement, the reduction of the death rate has been about 11 per cent. The distressing feature is that in the smaller cities, of 25,000 and less, together with the rural communities, there has been a slight increase in the death rate over last year. The poor showing in the rural districts, no doubt, is due to the absence of stringent regulations, little improvement having been made as yet over old-fashioned methods of caring for babies.
For instance, the antifly crusade has made little progress in the smaller communities. The fly is still considered a necessary nuisance in the small towns and on the farms, and little has been done to eradicate him, while in the cities, through the enforcement of ordinances and through the efforts of health boards and co-operation of the citizens, the fly has very materially decreed in numbers. The milk situation, too, has been neglected in the smaller centers. Dairy inspections are practically unknown, and it is not until some herd gives unmistakable evidence of disease that any step is taken towards examining into its condition.
Absence of sewer systems and a general policy of allowing each family to do as it pleases with its garbage has also altered in keeping the death rate high among the babies in the villages. But on the whole the situation is encouraging, and we may look for substantial progress all along the line in years to come.
THE MAN WHO NEVER LAUGHS
Those who have had anything to do with public meetings, or looked out upon the faces of audiences, have always discovered the man who never laughs. He is an iceberg. He agrees with all that the speaker says, but inwardly he is thinking that some forty years before the speaker held some other view, and therefore he is not deserving applause in his then present attitude. There are those who never clap hands at lectures, shows, or concerts. One such man can freeze the people to death all around him. If his wife is with him, she is afraid to laugh. If his daughter is beside him, she withholds her spirit of enthusiasm on account of her father. He looks as stiff and solemn of a graven image. On the way out of the hall he may speak a kindly word about what he heard. If he does, he immediately follows it by a criticism. The foundation upon which this man stands is ecotism. He virtually says "There is nothing done right unless I do it; there is nothing said riht unless I say it." The man who does not laugh is an enemy of the human race, and he is his own enemy. He is an especial damage to his family
He suppresses youth. He throws a wet blanket over those of hish spirits, if he smells a rose, he criticises the stem.
A HAPPY OUTLOOK.
The corn crop this year is a bumper, assuring plenty of corn bread and mush and corn cakes and hominy and other articles of whole sale food made from corn. And now cones the glad news, straight from headquarters at Washington, that the crops of beans, cabbage and onions are larger, several times over, than last year. The potato crop is a big one, despite somewhat dis-ourging late reports of blight in some sections of the country. Taking all these things into consideration, therefore, it is evident there is no daer of the American people going hungry, even if they will have to economize on such things as wheat, flour, meat, sugar and a few other articles which they have been accustomed to using prodigally.
Indian summer in Tennessee las's longer and its beauties are more pronounced than can be found in any locality. With the folder in the shock, great golden or silver ears of corn going into the crib by the thousands of bushels, the beautiful foliage on the trees or falling at their roots, the yellow of the fields, the darkess of the plowed ground, the green of alfalfa, the deep blue of the sky, the last songs of the crickets, and the goodly parting of the songbirds going to the southland for the winter all make a beauty picture of joy and sweetness.
Some automobilists tear through street traffic and swing around city corners as if actuated by the theory that all pedestrians will get out of the way, either before or a ter. Some pedestrians non-chalantly stroll along with the air of "come-on-l-dare-you-to-hit-me." If these two classes could only be brought together everything that happened could be put down on the profit side.
Next year eggs are to be cheater, poultrymen promise us, but this winter prices will be higher than ever before. The dentist, when about to extract a boy's tooth, reminds him of how good it will feel when it is out.
Sometimes people are misquoted in the newspapers. But not anywhere near as often as the number of assertions to that effect would seem to indicate.

Thus the night they pass away
Noiselessly they scatter,
Hastening before the dawn
Back to realms of shadow.

In taking over the Pavon properties in New York City and moving his habitat to Gotham, that Napoleon of Finance, Watt Terry, enters a wider field for service to his people and will himself have larger opportunities for growth than was possible in the circumscribed area of Brockton, Mass. The eyes of the nation are on Mr. Terry and it is not doubted that he will live up to the full measure of the big things expected of him. Above all, this remarkable modest young man will never be afflicted with the "big head," no matter how much temptation may be placed in his wake.

Dr. J. Harvey Anderson's recent articles in the Star of Zion on "The Function of a newspaper" indicates that he knows the "biz" from every possible angle. The brilliant columns of the Star of Zion also indicate that he knows how to put into practice the preachments he so eloquently utters. The General Conductor of the Star of Zion is Dr. Anderson as its official spokesman did a fine bit of work. We would urge that he be kept on the job for life but for the invariable custom of Methodist bodies to promote their general officers to the Bishopric after a season of faithful service in the trenches—and Dr. Anderson must not be denied his hard-earned laurels. *

One John Francis Beckwith, professional "love pirate," who through adroitly-written love letters victimized prominent women of the country for over $20,000, is doing time at the Atlanta Federal prison, with fifteen years of confinement and a fine of $15,000 to work out. Beckwith has had a checkered career as a poet, novelist, soldier, adventurer and love-letter writer. His finish is another warning that no man is smart enough to carry a pitcher to the end of a very long and gut-wrenching without breaking it. "Love-letters," like dynamite, are dangerous playthings.

Prof. W. S. Scarborough, president of Wilberforce University, Ohio, is in the East on a campaign that is making that great institution a brighter spot on the map after each illuminating address on education and its value as a race lever. Wilberforce is now more than a church influence; it is backed by the Methodists as the leading school of the Payneites, but it is also endowed by the State of Ohio and is so broad in its scope to purpose and attendance that it is a "national" school in every sense of the term. Prof. Scarborough has given Wilberforce the best that is in him, and the work is growing at a rate that is surprising to the most sanguine friends of the great seat of learning. The country has heardbuch of this splendid man; it will hear much more in the future.

The suspension of the Afro-American page of the American Press Association, is a calamity to the Negro Press. This plate service, the best the colored people have ever enjoyed was founded in 1899 by N. Barnett Dodson, a writer of rare discrimination and an excellent judge of readable matter, and has been circulated upwards of 100 papers were subscribers at one time and the low rate gave out editors an associated press service of six columns weekly at nominal cost. The suspension of the page is due to the sale of the news feature of the American Press Association to the Western Newspaper Union, the former devoting itself entirely to the advertising field. It is the sincere hope of the colored press that the Western Newspaper Union will cease to view the page, with Mr. Dodson as its editor. It is up to the press to make the argument and to indicate that they will make the venture a paying proposition.

Stevedores have an important place in the scheme of military operations and the value of their service should not be cried down, even while seeking the more dignified lines of duty. Thousands of lusty young colored men, who have not had the advantages of liberty training and who do not care to go on the firing line, will find an excellent opportunity to render effective service by handling the supplies and performing necessary tasks that call for physical rather than mental virility. There is a place for every man, whatever his training or limitations. Let that place be sought in a spirit of the highest patriotism.

The designation of Emmett J. Scott to the post of adviser to the Secretary of War is a positive indication that the Negro is wanted in this world war for liberty and democracy; Mr. Scott, as special assistant, to handle problems peculiar to the colored Americans, is on par with Hoover, Garfield, Lippman, Frankforter and other near-Cabinet officials, delegated to unravel complicated administrative tangles in connection with the war. The Scott appointment is far and away the most responsible post ever assigned to a member of our race.

Newark, Atlantic City and Cape May, all in New Jersey, the land of Wilson, Tumulty, Hedspeth and Cosey, are now in the running as the seat of the 1918 session of the National Negro Business League.

If the suit would be ideal the serious work of the League could be carried on, with a suitable playground at hand when the League drops its final curtain.

NASHVILLE SOCIETY FOLKS.
The Elite Dancing academy will make its formal announcement within a few days according to Prof Davis, the young man who is promoting this. It will be run altogether on a different basis from anything ever attempted in Nashville. According to his arrangements the academy will be operated along lines with which such organizations are handled in the largest cities in the North and East. A number of letters will be sent with invitations to a very select number of young ladies and young men in Nashville's Society Circle to participate in these series of winter dances. In order to be elibigle to attend this class you must be in possession of an admission card properly signed, and in order to gain admittance to this, the admission card must be presented at the door on evening. This is done in order that the class be made as select as possible and to correct erroneous ideas. This is love in order that the class can be operated on high line ideas and kept pure and clean.
Prof. Davis further announces that invitations will be out next week inviting Nashville's young Society Circle as well as a number of the younger married people to attend the first series of dances. He also states that they will be held on Saturday evening from 4 to 8 o'clock making it possible for the young ladies to attend and leave at an hour thoroughly in being with good manners. In being with good manners the Nashville's young married couples as well as a number of settled people will receive complimentary tickets to these dances in order to chaperon the younger element as well as to give tone and dignity to the occasion.

It is sure a wonderful medicine, and I cannot say too much for it. I want to recommend Lung-Vita to all persons that are afflicted with bronchial asthma as I was. It did more for me than the doctors ever did."

An Easy Way To Reduce Flesh
Haven't you often wished for a medicine to reduce your flesh? Something that does not require dieting or calisthenics? Well, right here you have it in 5 grain tassco tablets, which you may secure at your drugst. They are pleasant to take, perfectly harmless and cause no restrictions of habit or eating, and reduce the flesh, little by little, until you are down to the number of pounds you wish to weigh. Too much flesh is undesirable, as most quite stout people will readily admit, and it detracts from one's good appearance; makes one clumsy and short of breath. There isn't any reason why anyone should be too stout, when there's this much-tried, perfectly satisfactory remedy at your drugst. Tassco tablets (don't forget the name) are recommended by physicians and are guaranteed to be perfectly harmless. Refuse substitutes, if you can not come to our store, we will mail tassco to you.
Adj.—
meant "eats." They were ushered into the dining room, where truly an old-fashioned country dinner consisting of turnip greens, chicken, blackberry pies and many other good things were enjoyed. The hostess told the class that everything that was eaten was raised on their farm, even to the corn which was made into bread.
After dinner Mr. Carney took the class to the orchard, where one of the livestest times of the day was had. Mr. Carney running from tree to tree shaking apples to see the class scramble for them. After being well loaded with apples, they returned to the house, when the teacher, Mr. S. H. Johnson, on behalf of the class spoke a few words of appreciation to Mr. Carney for the kindness extended them. Then the class joined in and sang the Galeia and Metoka song. Mr. Carney then responded and related to the class how he had succeeded in the ten years' time he had seen out there.

ROGER WILLIAMS STUDENT ARE THE RECIPIENTS OF A LITERARY TREAT.
Mrs. Francis Preston, Prominent Social Worker, Speaks
The Faculty and student body of Roger Williams University are yet singing the praises of Mrs. Francis Preston, of Detroit, Mich., who appeared in a recital of unusual merit and brilliance at the school. Mrs. Preston, who is an elocutionist of national prominence, came to Roger Williams through the kind invitation of President Townsend who is wont to bring to his students people of attainment who inspire to noble thoughts, higher ideals, loftier purposes and more devoted service. Mrs. Preston not only has within her the needed elements for young lives, but she was to the more mature a source of encouragement. Mrs. Preston star her brilliance easily determines her position as one of first magnitude. working W. C. T. U. was organized by Mrs. Preston with eight members enrolled Miss F. A. Owens was chosen president.
President Townsend spent Sunday in Clarkville, Tenn., in the interest of Roger Williams, and to be present at the thirty-second anniversary of the Mt. Olive Pastist Church, Rev. J. S. Swift, pastor.
At Philly's Hax everything is quiet, refined and reserved, yet pleasant, all in keeping with the life and manner of our beloved precep tress, Mrs. Helen G. Jones. Mrs Jones is an ideal mother for girls firm and positive, but lovable.
At Philly's classes much pleasure in his classes of logic, Sociology, Geology and Philosophy.
Rev. A. O. Kenny is yet an ideal object of inspiration.
New students, the result of an active presidency, are pouring in on every train.
Irregularities and inconsistencies often preside at the birt hof notions and organizations; but itime rolls on. Man corrects them. He changes the irregularities into polished regularity. He fears within himself certain notions of order and reason. He revolutionizes. He brings order out of chaos. The New Roger is the work of a hand that is modern, active, resourceful, tactful, and best of all, honest. We refer to the work done for Roger by our beloved President Townsend.
The school is upon a more progressive stone than ever before. Being ingrained in loyal students body in an excellent corrs of teachers, selected from America's foremost colleges, and with a promising future, one can but feel that where Roger was kissed by destructive flames, she was met by immortality.

This announcement came as a thunderbolt from a clear sky. Miss Perkins, having served us four years satisfactorily was asked to reconsider her resignation. Miss Bessie Johnson was elected Assistant Secretary. Miss Johnson's election will lessen the work of the eScreener and probably she will keep the office.

LEARNING THE ART OF LIVING
Special to the Nashville Globe:
Men study how to do everything but live. No man would enter a commercial venture with the same headlessness and lack of foresight and understanding with which men airily take up the great business of life. Plan purpose, philosophy, most of us have none. It really seldom occurs to us to prepare for living as for the most serious undertaking of our existence.
How to live serenely, simirily and servicable and in the full exercise of our powers is a great problem, which's none the less real because so often ignored.
The Christian conception of life has no place for tents of ease. It is not a pleasant abiding luxurious place. It is a march, a battle, a war. The virtues it demands are the fighters virtues, of these preparedness is one of the first. Let your loins be girded about, said Jesus, that is gather up your flowing robes, fasten them into the belt, and be ready to march or fight or work.
As a fireman is ready within a few seconds at any hour of the night or lay to mount the engine and be off, as abahting master watches a beach, ready to leap into the water the instant anyone is in danger. So the Christian is to keep himself ever in a state of perpetual preparation, alert Hives are few, opportunity finds most Hives unready when he knocks at their door, or when he is easier for humanity if the Creator had only made us wooden manikens instead of free agents. But in that case we would not have been men. Lacking ability to fall, we would also have lacked the ability to climb.
Man has appetites, they are the mark of his manhood, but when the appetites have the man, then he has been dethroned from his divine estate A man's highest right is his right to ownership rights. A man is never so nobly a man as possessing the dictates of his noblest nature. The highest mountain peak of human achievements is the hill called *olgotha*. The crucifixion gave the world its symbol of man's hope and God's mercy. The life that most clearly bears the stamp of the divine upon its character is most desirous of avoiding an accession of stumbling to a brother. And his friends denied themselves, but they pleased God and all the worldiness. They gave up their little rights in exercises of their higher rights.

BETHLEHEM HOUSE NEWS
The seating capacity of the Negro Public Library was taxed to its utmost last Monday evening, October 22nd when Dr. Mary Riggs Noble of India addressed the women of the city. The Mothers' Community Club of the Bethelem House was instrumental in securing this notable speaker, and as the Bethelem House tries to correlate its work with that of the Public Library, the meeting was held in that spacious auditorium.
Dr. Noble's talk was to women only, and her appeal was to the mothers present to do their patriotic duty in helping hold up the standards of true womanhood in these critical times, to inculcate in the minds and hearts of their young children growing up the very highest ideals.
Mrs. Julia Williams, president of the Mothers Club presided over the meeting; Mrs. George Haynes introduced the speaker and Mrs. Bishop Scott had charge of the devotions. The Forward Quest girls acted as ushers.

(Continued from page 1.) bringing this "balm" to the perishing sons of men.
The chief speaker of the day was Bishop Thomas Nicholson of Chicago, who took for his theme, "Some Humanitarian Aspects of Education." He called attention to want, misery and woe, fl., disase and crime found in any large city, and in this connection spoke at length of the goodness, mercy and justice of God. The Bishop said all these burdens and drawbacks in life are perhaps allowed by the Almighty to come spore people on to an awakening to the truth of the world and the work each can accomplish. He said the important thing is to find one self, that "God is willing to co-operate with in the accomplishment of any great work."
The speaker drew a comparison between the old North American indian who inhabited the Mississippi valley in the early days, and the white man, who came later and developed this great section. This proved a very interesting and instructive lesson. At the close of his address he spoke of the worth-white spirit that should inspire every great work or movement. He said: "It is the altruistic spirit that enlarges our visions, makes the future brighter and seals our efforts with success, this true-blue altruism that came from the cross on Mount Calvary. "For me to live is Christ; to die is gain." Among those who were present and made short addresses were Dr. James I Vance, Dr. B. F. Hembleton of Vanderbilt medical department, Dean W. F. Tillett, Charles Nelson of the Nashville Trust Company, Oliver J. Timothy, Bishop C. H. Phillips, Dr. C. V. Roman, Dr. E. B. Chappelle, Dr. J. B. Singleton and a number of others.
The exercises lasted throughout the afternoon and were brought to a very impressive close with the short dedication service just at sunset on the steps of the new Anderson Anatomical Hall. These exercises were conducted by Bishop Nicholson and ended one of the most important epoches in the history of the great colored institution.
Expansion at Meharry.
Meharry Medical college has just dedicated two new buildings, and those interested in the progress of this worthy institution are happy at the evidences of prosperity there. One of the graduates of Meharry, Dr. James W. Anderson, of Dallas, Tex., gave all the money with which one of the buildings was erected, attesting the interest taken in the institution by those who owe their success to the training they received at Meharry. This college has been a boon to the Negroes. It has been the means of starting many on the

Hubbard is doing a noble work in connection with Mennary college, and the people of Nashville should stand ready to aid him in any way possible.
