VOLUME XIII.
President Edward P. Jones of the National Baptist convention spent a very busy day in this city last Sunday. He was billed for two appearances, which finally changed to three. These arrangements had been made by the local committee who had his risk in charge. He was met at the Henry A. Boyd and went past the Mary A. Boyd and counted the lateness of the train he muse, services, but was greeted by an enthusiastic crowd. At night he delivered a soul-driving sermon at the second Baptist church of which the key, G. B. Taylor is pastor. Preceding this, at three o'clock in the afternoon he delivered an able address at the Home-conning of the Pleasant Green Baptist Church and day school and was later entertaining at the school. Boyd. President Jones left the city Monday morning in company with Henry A. Boyd on their long itinerary. "We are facing problems that the present day generation must grapple with as a denomination. We are face to face with opportunities never before presented, and it is my desire to see to it that the youths of our race get a square deal along every line of endeavor. We want that they shall be able to see the harvest is truly great and the lappers few," declared Dr. Jones to a Globe representative this week.
On Monday morning Dr. Jones was met by the Baptist Ministers' Conference, who called a special meeting in his behalf. He addressed them, after being introduced by Dr. C. H. Clark, the president, who has just returned from a long visit in Texas. Dr. Jones gave a splendid resume of the outlook for the convention and stated in his speech that the states were rapidly falling in line for presidents and meeded Baptist principles. "I have just returned from Oklahoma and Louisiana. The Baptists in these states are doing great work. Then I have just gotten a message from Texas, where all records were broken in their convention at Houston," declared Dr Jones to the Ministers' Conference. He declared just before leaving that he was well pleased with the progress being made on the theological school which has only recently been purchased. He also expressed favorably upon the re-opening of the theological mission Board at Louisville, Ky., and that the Rev. Dr. Kemp, the Chapel of the Foreign Mission Board, would in all probability pass through Nashville this week en route to his office and headquarters at Louisville.
TRINITY CIRCUIT.
Sunday school at 9:30. Morning services at 11:30. Quite an interesting sermon was delivered by the pastor from Acus 17:6. "These are they that have turned the world upside down."
At 7:30 p. m., the pastor preached a special sermon on "Baptism," text, Matt. 28:19, and also administered the sacred rites of baptism from the altar.
Monday night the official board met and officers were elected for the ensuing year. The officers seem to have entered upon their duties with new inspiration. The future is bright for the pastor's work.

NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH
With enthusiasm and interest as bisha as ever, the Church Aid met at the residence of Mrs. Selna Jarrett Friday night, November 9th. This meeting was to have been held with Mrs. Lena Cheatham, but owing to her illness was transferred to the above residence. At the usual hour for opening the meeting was called to order by the vice president, Mrs. Cora Pondoodle. Regular routine of business was had. The program consisted, in part, of discussion of the Sunday school lesson, led by Mr. Theo. S. Davies, Duet, Misses Chayley and Innocent Jones, Solo, Mrs. Lillie Male, Gammons, and some visitors were present and made short and encouraging talks. Superintendent of the Sunday school, Mr. W. C. Sheffield, was present after missing a few meetings and bad the Ald God-speed. New members are being added at divers times. Mrs. Rachel Flemings was successful enough to procure membership. After program was rendered the roll was called and all present responded with a verse and pecunia. This was followed by a most palatable and delicious repast in courses. A vote of thanks was extended the hostess. Everyone enjoyed the best highest. We immediately decided to give the next meeting where this one was held so enjoyable was the stay, but owing to the rule to allow everyone a chance, the next regular meeting will be held at the residence of Mrs. Lena Cheatham. 1035 Ament street, Friday night. November 30th. All members and friends are urgently requested to visit Ms. Lena Cheatham and come to the next meeting.

NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE.
HOME COMING* DAY AT PLEASANT GREEN BAPSTEIN SUNDAY SCHOOL, NASHVILLE, SUNDAY NOVEMBER 11, 1917.
Sunday was gala day for the Pleasant Green Baptist Sunday school. The morning session was suspended till 2:30 p. m. and all of the officers teachers and pupils visited other Sunday schools of the city, observing the particulars to be learned in Sunday school affairs.
One of the attractions was a little red tag bearing the inscription: "I'll Be One," worn by all of the visitors and scholars. Each visitor was presented with a souvenir post card bearing upon it the picture of a rustic youth with his bundle of clothes upon his back, in bare feet, flapped hat, and pants rolled up going home. The idea suggested was that of a prodigal's return home. Proximity to the appointed time pupils and friends in Sunday school began to crowd into the auditorium of the church. Placards bearing the name of the class and its teacher were stationed in various places in the Sunday school room, and ushers were stationed in the aisles to direct people to the classes in which they desired to participate.
The Metokas and Galedas and the Adult Bible Class were very much in evidence, while the intermediate, Primary and Cadet Classes were just as enthusiastic. The main feature of the evening was the address of Dr. C. V. Roman to the Sunday school. He spoke along the line of patriotism and religion, and urged the many students to be more efficient service. Dr. Roman encouraged special training and told the people that more and more the Negro man and woman must learn to specialize for respective service. Relative to the Temperance Lesson, he admonished them to guard against too frequent use of the tongue. Illustrating that the mouth is used for three times more things than the eye and ears, we should see and hear three times more than we speak by the Rev. Edward P. Jones Vicksburg, Miss., President National Baptist Convention, Un-incorporated. Dr. Jones has a commanding appearance that easily attracts the attention of his audience, and his remarks were listened to and applauded with appreciated interest. After his remarks, the congregation sang "My Country 'Tis of Thee." Dr. R. H. Boyd was present and spoke concerning placing Negro-Folk Songs, or Jubilee Melodies in the school who are now in the training camps. This met with considerable favor.
The Pleasant Green Evening's Sunday school will long be remembered. Metokas and Galedas from the several schools were present and gathered much inspiration from the occasion. After the remarks by the visitors, Superintendent Marshall reported that 350 persons had sat in the different classes, the collections from them were $30.60, the Banner class being the Galedas, reporting, 57 present; collection, $10.41; the Galeda class was sent out the previous Sunday with five talents. They doubled them with 41 cents more than required and Mr. S. H. Johnson feels himself king of class officers. No doubt this will be a great stimulus to the Baptist Sunday schools of Nashville, and pastor Fields and superintendent Marshall feel that the occasion has been of great help to the Sunday school forces.
BETHLEHEM HOUSE
Among the distinguished visitors to the Bethlehem House last week were Miss Belle Bennett of Richmond, Ky., who is the president of the Woman's Missionary Council of the M. E. Church, South, the Board of which supports the work of the Bethlehem House, F. Stephens of Columbia, Mo.; Mrs. Luke Johnson of Atlanta and Mrs. Lee Britt of Suffolk, Va. Mr. B. H. January accompanied his cousin, Miss Lillie Williams, of Chicago, to the settlement and she was shown on the place by the house mother. Miss Williams seemed very favorably impressed wi the place impressed he wasarty appreciation of the work that was being done for her people.
Mr. W. A. Dowd, the state architect of Michigan, accompanied by his wife and maid, stopped at the Bothelem House to secure room and board for their maid, Miss Theresa Ross. As the settlement does not make provision for this need, Mrs. Mary L. Brown of 712 Cedar street entertained her during her short stay in Nashville and many of the indians that show the great need of a Y. W. C. A. for colored girls and women Every Saturday morning from 9:30 to 11:30 the sound of hammer, saw, plane and other tools can be heard in the Manual Training room. The members of this club, 14 boys ranging age from 10 to 14 years, are taking great interest in the work, so great is their enthusiasm that they have asked to commence ahead of time and work after closing time. On account of crowded conditions, it was necessary to make three new work benches. The boys assisted in this work, and had the satisfaction of constructing something very large. The club is planning to make a number of very useful things. There is still room for a few more boys. Why not give your boy a chance and let him get the benefit of this training?

East Tennessee Conference, A. M. E. Church, arrived in Bluefield, on Tuesday, November 6th, and is strolling with his sister, Mrs. M. L. Clarkson, 142 Jones street, Dr. Jefferson visited the Red Cross Chapter No. 7, (colored) on Thursday afternoon and lectured to them, the course of his address he said in part: "I am proud that in the mammoth world war there is great need for the co-operation of our women in this great work of mercy. I not only favor our women organizing Red Cross Chapters and making handages and knitting soils and sweaters at home, but I favor them volunteering and going to France where they can give firsthand aid to our boys." Aluding to the hospital work be said: "Doctors may amputate limbs, up wounds and prescribe medicines, but none but the touch of the gentle hand of a woman can charm pain from the homesick conscience or the world-weary brain. Our men will fight better (and I tell you, we must fight) if we know our women are pulling for us, and we have the sympathy, love and recourses, of our own people behind us.
Dr. Jefferson has been transferred by Bishop Lee to the state of Alabama where he will take up his pastoral work for another year.

LONE STAR STATE VISITED BY REV. C. H. CLARK
GREAT MEETING AT HOUSTON—
DR. L. L. CAMPBELL, PRES. OF
CONVENTION —SPLENDID DIP. TRIP
Dr. C. H. Clark the pastor of the
Mt. Olive Baptist Church, who has
been for the past four weeks a guest
of the Baptists of Texas has returned
to his appointments interviewed b a
Globe reporter, Dr. Clark made the
following statement:
The special invitation extended me
by the General Convention of Texas
through Dr. Campbell and his committee was a source of renewed life to me as a public man in the cause of the Master. I reached Houston, Tex., on the 23rd and met one of the largest assemblies of Christian workers I have ever met in a state gathering. They all appeared to have been members of the Busy Bee Club or indeed they were busy. Each in their given field sought to make the best possessions of his apprentices Dr. Campbell is the one magnet around which all are drawn. Perhaps there is no greater correlating force in one man's brain than that to be found in Dr. L. L. Campbell. Unassuming but painstaking. Jocular, yet earnest. Dignified, and yet plain enough for
DR. C. H. CLARK, D. D.,
..Pastor of Mt. OHve Baptist Church
who has just returned from an
extensive tour through Texas.
the humblest member of the convention
to approach on any matter rela-
ting to the convention.
I had expected to have had the company of our Secretary and General Manager on this trip but as several important sessions were called to meet in the north at the same time, I was forced to make the trip alone. The pastors of Texas in the several cities where I was invited to speak are far above the average and have more than ordinary ability. They are big hearted, God fearing and stick to the job. In my next article I will tell of the number of appearances and the realizations. Coming and going through the city of Mrs. Porter, wife of Dr. Porter and Dr. Nightengale, D. D. Mrs. Porter, a serious accident from which we hope she will soon recover. She was thrown from a street car. I fear the Memphis brethren do not know what a blessing they have in the person of Mrs. Porter, as a Christian lady and a church worker. Dr. Nightengale is studying the National issue he says for the purpose of casting his lot, with one or the other conventions. He says that he is opposed to the incorporated convention and yet he is not decided if he will cast his lot with the unincorporated. This is not like Dr. Nightengale. I have known him for the past thirty years or more and he has always been one of the Genius who will have to do him. He has promised to join the Convention of which the Rev. J. L. Harding is president. I expect Beale Street Church to be in line at the Clarksville meeting.
Upon my return to Nashville I found Mt. Olive as busy as a bee wide awake. Dr. Boyd, our secretary was pastor on the first Sunday and administered Communion. He did splendidly after a twenty years absence from the pastorate. It is said that it is hard to learn an old dog new tricks. The deacons of the church are loud in their praise of the splendid way in which he conducted the work of the pastor. I find that the twenty-one years, though strenuous, have been a time in which which was formed one year before the National Baptist Convention was consolidated. Long may he live to do greater work for the denomination in correlating the religious forces of the denomination throughout the country in giving the people literature for the coming generations. God be thanked. More anon."

AUDITORIUM.
With the citizenship of Nashville, many Meharry students joined to bid goodbye to the vanderbilt unit soon to leave for the seat of war. The unit in a large measure is made of the best blood in the Volunteer State. Reservation was made for Meharry students and right well did they occupy the space allotted. The auditorium was well filled with a number of students who reservation was appropriate. The splendid address delivered by the Hon. John Bell Keele was most fitting for the occasion. It breathed the spirit of lofty patriotism emulating from a pure heart. Meharry claims a large interest in "Company G Unattached" because one of her gallant sons is leader. A deep patriotic spirit pervades the entire campus, for many of our student-body members in our Uncle Sam and they are here in our Uncle Sam pursuing professional studies preparing for the day when their service will be needed.
Sunday Service.
The spacious Meharry Auditorium was well filled last Sunday to enjoy the eloquent and impressive sermon by Dr. C. W. Morrow, dean of Fisk University. Dr. Morrow deeply impressed all of his hearers with the use of every opportunity presented and be on the alert for opportunities which it is possible to make for themselves. The sermon was deeply spiritual, thoroughly practical. Dr. Neil, of the department of Dentistry, addressed the Meharry Y. M. C. A. on last Sunday. Those present heard him gaily. The Meharry Y. M. C. A. addressed the Meharry Y. M. C. A. two hundred. They recently gave an enjoyable reception to the freshmen of the school.

THE FORWARD QUEST GIRLS'
CAMPAIGNNSG.
The Ever Ready Girls of the Bethlehem House and the Forward Quest Girls have united and all bear the name of Forward Quest. They meet at the Bethlehem House, having a special club room of their own. There is an Advisory Committee which cooperates with them in all of their plans. The committee is as follows: Mrs. Mary Healey, Miss Fannie Killian, Mrs. Elizabath Rose Haskin, Misses Viola and Willie Flagg, Miss Fairax Butler and Willie Estelle Haskin. There is also an organization of the Forward Quest Club called the Big Sisters. All these forces are combining to conduct a membership campaign to be carried on for the next two weeks, hoping in that time to enlist at least 100 girls. The club is divided into three groups: the girls and the Browns—so the race is on. A gold friendship link is to be awarded the one securing the largest number of new members, and a silver link to the one securing the second largest number. At the close of the contest the entire membership is to be entertained by the Advisory Committee. This is the only active work in the city specially for the colored girls, so we are asking the co-operators to be interested in the welfare of young girls. Any girl who is fifteen years or over is invited to join.
The Law of Quest is—Seek health, maintain harmony, follow truth, enthrone love and render service. The degrees are as follows: The Pathfinder, the Light-bearer and the Star-seeker. These degrees are attained by the doing of certain special things which will help the girl in her physical, mental and spiritual development. It is sure to be a help to any girl to belong to the Forward Quest. Its ideals are those set for the highest type of womanhood. Will you not use the campaign? Phone us the names and addresses of those who might become interested by personal solicitation. Phone Miss Fairfax Butler, Bettieheim House, Main. 4454 The captains in the contest are Miss Fuchsia Miller and Miss Ethel Walker. Names may be left for either of these young women with Miss Butter
NUMBER
During the Supreme Encampment at St. Louis, Mo., in August, Volunteer Company No. 5 of the Jurisdiction of Tennessee, competed for and won first prize in Class D. The lodges of Nashville are justly proud of their crack company. Nearly every lodge in the city has at least one or two men who are members of this company.
In recognition of the achievement of these and the Chancellor Commanders and Worthy Counselors have met and decided to give an entertainment in honor of this company. Every loyal Pythian and Calcanthe will be there. At this entertainment, "Old Glory" the $150.00 silk flag will be presented to Volunteer Company No. 5. This flag represents one-half of the prize won at St. Louis.
Dr. J. P. Crawford, the Grand Chancellor of this jurisdiction will deliver the presentation address. Brig. Gen. Preston Taylor will make the response. Every effort is being made to make the evening an enjoyable one in every way. After the presentation speeches, the orchestra will furnish music for the pleasure of the music loving public.
This company deserves the hearty support of all Pythians and from present indications, the German-American Hall will be crowded with supporters of the order. All Grand Lodge Officers, Chancellor Commanders and officers of the local lodges are planning to be present and are now selling tickets for the occasion. The nominal sum of 10 cents is being paid. Shelby is in charge of this entertainment and the success is assured.
One of the pleasing features of this complimentary entertainment will be the presence of the staff officers of Gen. Taylor; Col H. A. Boyd, Col. Chas. Vaughn and Maj. Geo. Hall, who had charge of the company during the Supreme Encampment.
Mrs. F. E. Dawson, the chairman of the Food Pledge Card Campaign among Colored Women, wishes to thank the following ladies for their cordial support and splendid service rendered in obtaining so many signatures among our people.

Among the many things he said, he was reared up with the colored people, labored with them, but this was the first time he felt the opportunity to preach to them, so he thought it very fitting to preach to them of the "Resurrection" which he did with much credit to himself and the ministry of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Several of the best singers rendered music for the occasion to delight of all who heard it. Several of the preachers of the Presbyterian Church who were attending the meeting here accompanied Rev.

Holder pulled from his pocket his resignation, and told the church that he would have to resign as pastor of the Bryants Grove Baptist Church to take up work in other parts of the state. There was certainly a gloom of sadness cast over the church and every individual present made a statement expressing their regret to see the pastor leave.

NEGRO SOLDIERS.
It is indeed refreshing in these days of intense hatred that some parts of the United States evince for Negro soldiers to have a loyal white friend to say a few kind words in their behalf. The following excerpt from the Columbus Dispatch meets our unqualified approval and gives us pleasurable pleasure. Listen:
"About ten per cent, or sixty thousand of the selected men in the army are Negroes. They are in practically all of the camps, and are being drilled in many instances by officers of their own color. They have their own organizations; that is, the colored men and white men do not belong to the same companies or regiments. These colored troops seem to be getting along very well.
But there are a lot of people in this country who seem to know more about running an army, or conducting a war, than those who have made a life study of it. These busy-bodies are now trying to stir up trouble in regard to the Negroes. They are well-meaning, perhaps—these busy-bodies—but they are impracticable in most things.
One of the propositions is to create a separate Negro division—to put all of the colored troops into one great camp. Another proposition is to break up the regiments, and distribute the companies among the white regiments. Both propositions appear to be absurd to the war department, and to those who are giving all of their thought to the winning of the war.
The Negroes will give a good account of themselves when it comes to actual fighting. They are good soldiers. They have courage and endurance, about all that is necessary in making a soldier, if we except discipline, and the Negro is easily disciplined. He obeys orders readily. So we need have no fear about the service the colored troops will render to this country when the time comes. The real friends of the Negro will let the war department run the army as it sees fit, and not seek to make it any harder for either white or colored troops.
HAPPINESS BY DETERMINATION.
The person who refuses to be made unhappy by adverse things is either wise beyond the human average or most luckily constituted. The misanthropie is apt, of course, to nurse his melanrholy, and to feel superior to him that throws it off. But the misanthropie is not to be relied upon. He exaggerates honestly; but he exaggerates. Since even he is gregarious by instinct, regardless of what his habit may be, he craves spiritual companionship, and is aggrieved if others also are not wretched.
Misfortune is not partial—at least not more partial than good fortune. To everybody comes a share of it. or if they think that to be so, they If some receive an unequal portion. or if they think that to be so, they have at least the religious and the purely philosophical alternatives. They may look upon their miseries as opportunity in unbecoming garments, and advance to greater things through trial; or they may reflect
upon the uselessness of protest, and save their grief. Contrarwise, it is open to everybody to flatter sorrow by immersing himself in it. For some, a saucerful is sufficient. Introspection has at least a dual personality. It may brood or it may analyze. It may habitually look to the inner woes, and people the soul with a troop of shades; or it may put hopes, disappointments and qualities in something like their normal relations, and thus serve both as a toner down of elation and a palliative of grief. It is difficult—indeed, it is impossible—for the outsider to know whether resistance to unhappiness, therefore, is due to unappreciation or to appreciation in its most complete and intelligent form. Some people are duck's backs. Others are sleeves.
It is a human peculiarity to maintain a faith in one's surpassing ability to suffer. Each mortal admires his own capacity for feeling. No flattery is more engaging than that which pretends to recognize such capacity. The lover talks, with a high inspiration, about his sweetheart's depth of soul; and she, who therefore had never perceived fully her own attribute, at once is convicted of ridiculous modesty. Emotion grants its most excellent crown to him who experiences the most unutterable sadness. Every person admires the martyrs, and dies with them deliciously at intervals.
Nevertheless, it is a fine thing to be able to compel happiness. To him who can turn resolutely away from that which represents failure in great aspirations, and face again with cheer and hopefulness the east, much has been given. His determination bestows upon him any number of rising suns. He may not so soon wear a halo, but his head itself will rest with a greater security.
THE HISTORY OF THE THREE
CENT STAMP.
Answering the call of mars, the three cent purple stamp has come forth to join the dance of the taxes. Modest as the violet from which it takes its color, it has been a wall paper stamp for many years. With Jackson's head on it, it was first issued in 1902. In 1908, Jackson's head was succeeded by Washington's, but the color remained the same. In 1853, three cent stamps, then a blue green color, would carry a half ounce letter 3000 miles or less. In 1853, the element of distance was abolished, and three cents would carry a letter to any part of the United States. In 1873 the rate was reduced to two cents and the three cent stamp became only an occasional visitor. The first two cent stamp in general use was a red brown color, and bore Washington's face.
HOW WE GOT OUR NEW STYLE
OVERCOAT.
Gloom hurked in our quarters when we saw the new trench overcoat on parade, and we remembered that our last year's new coat was too good to cast aside. "Oh gloom!" Why doth thou sentence us to the class of out-of-dates we exclaimed. But joy came to our rescue, and we remembered that our tailor could cut a piece from the bottom of our old coat and make a belt out of it. So we hastened to our tailor and made him smile to the tune of $1.75, and we stepped forth with our overcoat three inches shorter but fitting snug around our waist, belted down and in the height of fashion. Oh joy!

ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY
By Mack T. Williams.
Today America stands looking over her marshalled forces, harnessed powers and battle array, for by inexorable force of events, it has been drawn thither, much against its will, into the greatest of all wars.
That the students of Roger Williams realize that into a sea of carriage their country is, and that 'tis not a time to discuss the feasibility of martial activities, but a, moment when "Columbia Calls" for co-operation, men, conservation and sacrifice, in all things conducive to Life, was evident when a few days ago, Mr. Arch Trawick, vice president, business manager, accompanied by Judge J. C. Napier and Prof. Carruthers of Fisk University, visited our school in interest of the food conservation campaign.
Having received a hearty welcome by President Townsend, (who is a staunch advocate and supporter of any movement, local or national, for the good of the people), Mr. Trawick and company easily, without persuasion succeeded in obtaining the signed pledge of every student and teacher, that not only would they sacrifice the use of some things, vitally needed by the government, but in all things care would be taken to waste nothing.
Mr. Trawick and company took occasion to express themselves as being greatly pleased at the admirable spirit of theism manifested by Roger Williams.
But this was just one instance of the true spirit which ever obtains at Roger
The trumpet shrill, was again heard by the President and faculty and students. This was the cry of six million men in prison camps beft of homes and families, pleading for the necessities of life for the coming winter's cold, not to say the least of the silent cry coming from the realms of the heroic dead, ask for their loved ones and homes; to destroy despotism and autocracy, and to establish a pure democracy.
The message brought by Mr. Tobias who came in interest of the students friendship war fund, a message that angels fain would give an attentive ear, was not relegated to a consideration in the future, but immediately the school was divided into divisions, with a captain of each division. The result was that the students of Roger Williams, most of whom are self-supporting in the main, poor, and many beneficiaries, together with the Realty gave over the fund that Americanism might take the place of imperialism. right might win the day and Christianity ablaze with glory raised upon the ruins of the torn altar of human butchery.
The thirty-second anniversary exercises of the founding of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church and of the pastorate of Rev. Joseph Kell, was attended by all of the students of Roger, in company with Dr. Townsend, who ably preached the sermon of the occasion. Rich in truths, born of a fertile mind, abounding in spiritual fervor, impressive in delivery, reclaiming in effect, william University chair, under the direction of Mrs. A. M. Townsend, furnished the music.

MILK AND ICE FUND COMMITTEE
FORMED.
Women Told of the Suffering of Poor Children by Dr. Hibbett, Head of Health Department—Mrs. Haynes, Chairman.
An appeal which struck a responsive cord in the hearts of many of the prominent women of Nashville was answered on Tuesday afternoon, when a large number gathered in The lecture room of the Carnegie Library to Dr. Hibbett, head of the Health Department of the City of Nashville, tell of the need and suffering of the tables in the poor families in Nashville.
The meeting was called to order by Mrs. Elizabeth Ross Haynes, an temporary chairman. Prayer was offered by Dr. McDowell, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North. Dr. Hibbett was introduced by Mrs. Haynes and in well chosen words told of the conditions which made it necessary for the babies born to poor families to have nourishment. He stated that formerly the city had appropriated between two and three thousand dollars for this fund, while this year it had appropriated only, $880. In explaining the modus operandi of this fund Dr. Hibbett had it distinctly understood that the mother had to take care of any mother and baby needing nourishment who made application for the same was helped, and in many cases the statistical record kept at the Board of Health Office showed that in some months the colored babies were supplied more milk than children of other races, although the proportion of children of other races to the total number stated emphatically that conditions arising from the war made it absolutely necessary that the babies of the races be safeguarded.
Mrs. Rosenfeld and Mrs. Schwartz were present and outlined plans for soliciting for the funds.

EDITOR MILLER IN INDIA-
NAPOIS
Mr. W. L. Miller, Editor of the Nashville Globe left the city Thursday for Indianapolis, Ind. While in in the northern city, Mr. Miller will be the guest of his son, Flournoy Miller, a leading actor. The companies conducted by Flournoy Miller do not come further south than Cincinnati, hence Mr. Miller, who is a typical southerner, has never had the pleasure of seeing his son perform. It has been the promise of the son that when he was booked far enough south for his father to reach him, he would send for him, so Saturday morning a wire came to Mr. Miller stating that the company was booked for Indianapolis at the Keith House and Mr. Miller went up to see him. We hope for him a pleasant vacation.
MRS. NAPIER CALLS
A very interesting meeting of Monday afternoon at the Carnegie Library was the one called by Mrs. J. C. Napier, chairman of the Auxiliary to the Council of National Defense. Mrs. Napier was chairman of the Colored Division of Registrars on the recent successful Registration Day, and it was due to her efforts that the work among the women culminated in such a glorious success. Having been very busy with other very important social and civic matters. Mrs. Napier had not the opportunity previously of calling the ladies together to hear their experiences and thank them personally for their efforts.
The meeting was called to order with Mrs. Napier in the chair. Mrs. M. H. Flowers, Manager of the Fireside School, prayed an earnest and fervent prayer.
Mrs. Napier spoke very feelingly of the part she played in the work, dealing delicately with several disco-couraging phases which loomed before when she took charge and grew eloquent when she recounted the experiences in which success began to crown her efforts. Each of the many registrars present recounted their experiences some pathetic some humorous. Mrs. Scott, wife of Bishop L. B| Scott led and Mrs. Leer, wife of Dr. J. A. Lester closed this interesting discussion.
At the conclusion of Mrs. Lester's address she begged for a few minutes in which to inform the chairman of the distressing condition among the women and children of many of the men who are in the military service of the country. Mrs. Lester had personally investigated this matter and her plea was very forceful. Mrs. Napier sanctioned Mrs. Lester's interest in this work and promised to look into the matter. When the meeting closed each member present was presented with a souvenir of Mrs. Napier's gratitude and interest.

Dr. J. A. Jones, the newly appointed presiding elder of the Nashville District, A. M. C. Church, has just returned from a trip in the western part of the state, where he went to visit the West Tennessee Conference, which assembled at Paris, Tenn. He made several speeches before that body, and was pleasantly received by the people of the West. This was the first time that Dr. Jones has visited that part of the state in his new relation as presiding elder. For twelve years he has gone through the state, speaking and lecturing in the interest of Turner College, for which institution he devoted much strength and energy. Word comes to us that Jones made the speech a life, when delining the mayor of Paris, who delivered the address of welcome to the West Tennessee Conference recently.
Dr. Jones announces the following as the appointments of his first quarterly rounds, not including the quarters for the year 1918: Hartsville, November 18th; Riddleton, Nov. 25th; Springfield, Dec. 2nd; Payne Chapel and St. James, Dec. 9th; Brierville, Dec. 16th; Scovel Street Church, Dec. 23rd; St. Peter's, Dec. 30th. Other appointments for January will be announced later.
Sunday morning, October 28, 1917, Eugene Perry departed this life at 9:40 a. m. and took her flight to the bosom of the Saviour who said, "Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven," she held at her home, 1220 Codar street and was the youngest child of her mother. She leaves her mother, two sisters and one brother to mourn her death. She asked Sister Harriett Kelso to sing the song of Jordan while she crossed over and the song was sung in the spirit.
Without a sob or sigh,
So wearily and trustingly,
The darling child saw death approach
And laid her down to die.

the bridal party went to the home of bride where they were greeted by congratulations and best wishes. A telegram congratulating the happy pair was received at the church during the ceremony from Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Price, of Nashville, Tenn., a brotherinlaw and sister of the groom. The collection of presents plainly revealed the popularity of the young people, for they were numerous and came from various sections of the country.
After the reception the bridal party took a special to Corsicana, the future home of Dr. and Mrs. Davis. On their arrival Thursday morning we were escorted from the station by Dr. Pope, who had their Super Six and Packard in writing, to the home of Dr. H. E. Williams and there they sumptuously feasted at breakfast. Society of Corsicana has arranged a number of festivities in their honor. Dr. and Mrs. Davis are domiciled at 1016 E.

It is stated that this convention is the largest Baptist convention in the United States and that they handle each year an increased amount due to their splendid organization.
MRS. BRIDGES' DENIAL
To my friends and associates, readers of the Nashville Banner, I noticed in Monday evening's edition under the caption "COUNTY OFFICERS HAVE BUSY SUNDAY," that officer M. A. Glover raided the house of Elsie Bridges in South Nashville and arrested the woman on a charge of keeping a house of ill-fame; and that Mary Polk was arrested on a charge of loitering about a bawdy house.
I emphatically deny any of these charges. First, that my house is not in South Nashville; second, that I am not keeping a house of ill-fame or a bawdy house. My residence is in 114 Vinewood, N. X. 133. I am living there alone as divorce proceedings are pending in the circuit Court against my husband, Sam Bridges, who has been enjoined by said Court from coming around said home, interfering with me in any manner.
On Saturday night, November 10th Mary Polk spent the night with me as she had done on several occasions. Sunday morning about 8 o'clock officers came to my home and searched it. They found Mary Polk who had spent the night with me and Mrs. Mary Brown for whom I had been sewing, and she had come for her dress. When the officers knocked I said come in and they did I wanted to know their business. They told me that they were officers of the law and had been sent to search the house. I thought probably they had made a mistake, but they insisted that my house was the correct place and that they were looking for Ellisa Bridges. I asked them to produce their search warrants which they did not gloat but continued to go through the house. After having searched the house they commanded the three of us to consider ourselves under arrest and come with them. I tried to reason with them, but they insisted much to my disgust. I make this public statement to vindicate myself.

FIRESIDE SCHOOL
The Training Classes for Christian Workers conducted by the Fireside School have commenced their work with a good deal of interest and enthusiasm. On last Friday morning the seating capacity was taxed to its utmost and further accommodations are to be made for all who attend. The program Mr. E. W. D. Iasae Ir. led the in singing several bubbles and much progress was made under the efficient instruction and leadership. A visit
tor to the class was Rev. Kenney of East Nashville, who gave a brief address on "Woman's Work," in which he emphasized the importance of knowing the Bible and being prepared to teach it to others.
Special attention is called to the evening class which meets every Thursday from 5:30 to 7:30. Much emphasis is being placed in these momentous times on preparedness along all lines and particularly in regard to health and hygiene. In harmony with these conditions a course in "Wire Ad" has been included in the Work at the Fireside School Training Classes and this course will be given on Thursday evenings. The work will be given under a trained leader and be a source of profit and value to all. An early registration is urged so as to get the full benefit of the course.

That lingers when loved ones cross
That when our labors are ended
with them we'll ever be.

In that bright land of flowers;
In that bright land of flowers;
But songs of joy and peace and glad
ness
Shall ever more be ours.

The Mission Board of the Missionary Baptist Convention of Tennessee will hold their meeting at the Third Avenue Baptist Church November 22, 1917 (Thursday night), Dr. J. L. Harding, D. D., pastor.
At the last meeting of the State Executive Board, which was held at the Lake Providence Baptist Church, our hearts were painful as we reviewed the largeness of the field, the territory lying in waste, and such a litter being done for our Lord and Master as a missionary church organization.
After confirming the appointment of two missionaries, who are to devote their time to the work with Dr. C. H. Clark, D. D., as general supervisor the Mission Board, under whose direction the field is to be cultivated, has adopted the Christian Soldier's plan, and on Thursday night, November 22, 1917, at the Third Avenue Baptist Church, they will organize a "State Mission Brizcide" and it is our earnest plea and desire that every church in the convention will lend at least one member to the army.
You are hereby requested to appoint a sister or brother from your church and send her or him to the meeting, so as to be in the organization. If it is not convenient to send them, send in their name, and also a little contribution for missions Send names, etc., to Rev. H. M. Burns, Chairman, 320 Tenth avenue, S. All Board members, pastors, ministers and Christian workers are asked and urged to be present.
Yours in the name of Christ who died for us.
DR. J. L. HARDING, D. D. Pres.
H. M. BURNS, Chairman.
Prof. H. B. P. Johnson, of Muskegon, Oka, has begun his duties as circulating and advertising manager of the National Baptist Union-Review, a weekly religious publication published in this city by the National Baptist Publishing Board. The bringing of Prof. Johnson to Nashville and having him more closely allied with the Baptist work is looked upon here by the following of that faith as a distinct advantage. He is national christian and it will be remembered he spent about a month here during the past summer training the big chorus for the Sunday School Congress. He also preceded them to their Atlanta meeting, where he had charge of the singing. He has been doing this since the death of the lamented Dr. N. H. Plus. It is learning the work of Prof. Johnson with the national Baptist Union-Review will not interfere with his chorus work, as he is up to a leave of absence twice a year in order that he may do this particular work in keeping the singing of the Convention and Congress up to the very highest possible order. He has opened his office already at 533 2nd avenue, North, and last Sunday began his first Sunday as one of the citizens of Nashville.

They have clothed children and sent them to school. Read and brought cheer to the age. If there are persons in the hospitals away from friends, old people to be read to, children who need care, specializing along the girl question.

BOWLING GREEN NOTES.
JONES-BOYD TOUR.
The most brilliant affair that has been witnessed in Bowling Green for some time was the entertainment by its citizens of Rev. E. P. Jones, D. D., President of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), and Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Sunday School Congress and Assistant Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board.
The coming of these two great national Baptist churches to our citizens and for the encouragement and inspiration of our youth. Bowling Green was at her best and citizens from all parts of the city and its surburbs, together with some of the rural citizens, were present to witness the program and to hear the words of wisdom and wholesome instruction falling like pearls from the lips of wisdom and wholesome instruction which left lapping impressions for good upon the minds and hearts of their bearers.
The preliminary program by the citizens has feebly expressed the high appreciation of and hearty welcome to our distinguished guests. The Negroes of our little city are always alive on and the alert and never fail in bringing to our girls and boys worthy examples of truth, honesty, Christianity, industrialism and prosperity as found in our own race. We have long since realized that we must place Negro examples before Negro children, and that we have a large field from which to choose. We have 24th and 31st shall present to our people another worthy example, in that of Prof. Roscoe Conklin Simmons.
Our guests were en route to the nation's capital to present to the executive thereof matters of grave importance with reference to the Negroes' interest in this the great world's crisis. Our people feel highly complimented to be favored with the presence of such noble specimens of our great race. We have no doubt but that they will accomplish that for which they go.

Friends, Ladies and Gentlemen
Friends, Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am persuaded somehow that the coming together of the leaders of our denomination at such a time as this will mean an awakening among the Christians and church-goers of our city. It is with sincere pleasure I come to extend a welcome on behalf of the church. To say that we are glad to have you with us is a weak plea. We are also pleased with what is ours at this time. intimate contact with those who are at of ours should cause us to become the head of this great denomination; more effective workers in our local fields of labor and to become more enthusiastic about the welfare of the cause we represent.
From this meeting I am sure that incentive will be received that will contribute in no small degree to the forward movement of the church of God, and a broader concern of what the Baptists are accomplishing today. I would be out of line with the occasion and do an injustice to you our honored visitors and brothers, if I had not pay tribute to the great work which you are doing and for which we as a church stand in the front ranks. To you, the head of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), which is for royalty, equality of brotherhood; a body of men and women with but a single thought—"the world for God"—for such a time as this you were born. We commend you for the energy and statesmanship you have brought to bear in conducting this our denominational crisis.
To you, the organizer and secretary of the National Baptist Sunday, School Congress, the son of the greatest living Baptist today, you made it possible for thousands of Sunday school workers to come together to study "How to Build Front Line Sunday Schools" and to prepare citizens for the church and heaven; assistant secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, where Christian literature is published and read in all parts of the civilized world, you are the front line of the Christian engenuity we can depend upon to mould sentiment in honor of the issue of today. As leaders of the denomination, we welcome you, as representatives of the race we welcome you, as men because you are worthy, efficient, loyal, Christian officers, most
excellent, these words alone spell welcome. We trust that as the years carry your craft to the shores of an ever-endless eternity, that you may be able to successfully ride, every billow of opposition and resistance, that he storms of mid-ocean have no terrors or you, and that you may another safe. In that harbor that is prepared for those who have loved and served their fellowmen. You are welcome.

By Mrs. L. E. Jackson.
It is only on very rare occasions that persons are given such an ovation as was given these visitors on their visit to our city. Recognizing their worth as leaders and as men who are bringing things to pass, the people, regardless of denomination, turned out en masse to hear and see them.
Rev. H. A. Boyd is no stranger in our city, and when his name is mentioned the people expect a grand

treat of eloquence blended with stern faces, pleasures and an appeal for a broader vision among our people. We can never thank him enough for bringing to us the invincible Rev. E. P. Jones, president of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated). He carried the people with him from the time he began till he closed, pealed before the people of our city, one of the most eloquent logical and rhetorical figures that ever has ever cited instance after instance which the Negro had given unrestricted and unlimited aid to this nation of ours, and urged that they still remain loyal to the trust given them. The visit of Revs. E. P. Jones, D. D. and H. A. Food to Bowling Green will have its effect for days to come. These great leaders of the race will always meet a warm welcome with the people of this city.

NATURE PROVIDES THE INGREDIENTS
Argo-Phosphate, the New Herbal Remedy, Now Endorsed by Local People
If the digestive organs are not properly performing the work which nature has assigned to them, then nutrition, which is absolutely essential to the recovery of other diseased parts, will be lacking, and there can be no修养. When bodily nutrition is normal, the stomach digests the food, the blood absorbs and carries the nourishment to the different parts of the body, causing the various organs to properly perform their functions.
Nature has provided a remedy in the ingredients of Argo-Phosphate, the new herbal stomach remedy, which is now being introduced here. It is purely vegetable and its vitalizing, corrective and reconstructive qualities are so pronounced that beneficial elements come from the first day. This is true, as necessary to listen to the statements made daily by local people who have given Argo-Phosphate a fair trial and have been benefited thereby.
It is dispensed by every druggist. (Adv.)
of Cinchaulti's leading divines, namely, Dr. A. W. Jackson, F. C. Locust, Wm. Taylor, C. H. Washington, C. W. Williams and W. Augustus Jones. The committee escorted Drs. Jones and Boyd to the Ninth Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A., where a brief conference was held. At 4 p. m., the two guests were honored with a luncheon at the Y. M. C. A., in which the following participated: Revs. F. P. Green, D. D., vice president for Ohio; F. C. Locust, D. D., of Covington; R. W. Jackson, W. M. Taylor, R. T. W. James, B. D. Scott, P. W. Eldson, C. W. Williams, J. R. Burley, W. Augustus Jones, D. D., and Dr. W. T. Nelson.
At 8 o'clock Drs. Jones and Boyd appeared at the Antioch Baptist Church on West Ninth street. This is the church of which the late Dr George W. Wyatt was pastor, Rev
HENRY A. BOYD
Secretary of Sunday School School Congress, who is accompanying President P. J. Pones on an important trip through Ohio and Pennsylvania.
W. Augustus Jones, D. D., the pastor of the Mound Street Church, acted as master of ceremonies. The church was filled to overloading with people eager to see and hear two Baptists who are so much talked of and so much in the public eye at present. There were fully fifteen hundred people in attendance. Besides the two guests and master of ceremonies, about thirty pastors from Cincinnati, Covington, Newport, College Hill and nearby places were seated on the floor. Jones introduced Rev. F. C. Loomis, t. d., of Covington, Ky., who very fittingly presented Rev. Henry A. Boyd, the Secretary of the Sunday School Congress. Dr. Boyd spoke very enthusiastically of the coming session of the Congress which is to be held in Alexandria, La., next June, and of the great work being accomplished at the great publishing plant at Nashville. At the conclusion of his remarks, Dr. Boyd presented President Edward P. Jones, D. D., who was loudly applauded by the great audience. President Jones decided that he will be long remembered by the people of Cincinnati. This couple of renowned Baptists made an impression on the church people of Cincinnati that will be long remembered. They left Wednesday morning for Columbus, Ohio, where they will be the guests of Dr. Elbert W. Moore.

A VAUDEVILLE ACT WORTH
The "Race of Man" a big-time act produced in New York City, is a singing turn composed of five men representing the five races of man A Negro, Hawaiian, Indian, Chinese and American in U.S. uniform. Each appears (in the order named) after a plush drop and makes a speech, setting forth the achievements of his race then sings a characteristic song, the idea is a novelty and is splendidly worked out. Each man is a genuine member of the nationality or race he represents except the Negro who is now a white man in black face. When the act was produced this part was done by Parker Ramsey. But when the act secured booking that would include cities in the south, a white man was secured for the part.
The idea of the act is worked out in a way to offend no race but rather to encourage the brotherhood of man. The Negro for an instance thanks the white race for the help it has given it and mention Lincoln the Emancipator and points to the achievements of Douglass and Booker T. Washington. Madestly, yet manly, the Hawaiian speaks cheerfully of his music which has set the world singing and dancing its strains. The Indian, says his race hops up to make room for civilization of the people are becoming fewer each day. People write song. The Chinaman said while his race was the oldest known civilization they had done little of recent years, but under the new democracy they would soon take their place beside the great nations of the world. He sang, its not your nationality, its only you. The American in U. S. Uniform said, while time would not permit him to speak of the many achievements of the white race, all races were God's own children. * * and all nations must bow to democracy, he sang "Over There." Geo. Cohn's patriotic song. From a theatrical standpoint the Chinaman was the hit of the act. He is a good singer and a clever comedian. The Indian made a striking picture in native costumes. The He. Sling wrote a good musician. The white man doing the Negro was unreal, and while he was applauded was very poor in his part. When a colored man did the same part he was the hit of the act.
As a vaudeville act the "Race of Man" is a big time novelty worth while.

ORPHEUM THEATRE.
American theatre goers have always found a delightful charm woven about romances that embrace the American Indian among its characters, and therefore "The Heart of Wetona," one of the latest and greatest of the many successes given to the
public by David Belasco should prove a tremendous hit when it is played here at the Orpheum for one week, commencing Monday, Nov. 19th.
The story centers about Wetona, daughter of Quanann, chief of the Manchemen, John Hardin, a government Indian agent, and Tony Wells, a young engineer. These four combined with a large and capable supporting cast, unfold a story that grips the heart and is guaranteed to make the spectator hold fast to his chests; chair throughout four of the most thrilling and emotional acts of drama ever seen on the stage.
"The Heart of Wetona" will be seen here for the first time next week, and as it has the stamp of approval placed upon it by a long run at the Lyceum Theatre, New York, local theatre patrons are safe in assuming that a genuine treat is in store for them.
Matinees: Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

THE VANGUARD LAUGHED TOO
QUICKLY.
It is said that as a rule he who laughs last laughs best. The Vanguard and the Vanguard man and the whole outfit of irregular Baptists have been just cracking their sides laughing and shouting and congratulating themselves and Collins Street Baptist Church for what they termed the church returning to the fold. The Vanguard even dignified J. H. Shell with the title of deacon and congratulated him much on bringing old Collins Street back; and if reports be true, Dr. Morris made a trip clear across the state to be numbered among the jollificationists and we understand that even Dr. Isaac was booked to be there, when all at once good old Collins Street, led on by Deacon Stewart and preacher Miller and a number of strong men and women, rose up in the power of her might and in the strength of God shook the notorious little bunch as rotten rags from their stronghold and lined themselves squarely up with the Scriptural forces of God's church, and by a large vote decided to meet and represent in the Missionary Baptist State Progressive Convention in Helena. Now the real friends of the church and the forces of majority rule have their turn in joy. But we boast and rejoice only in the Lord for He only hath given those people strength to see and do the right. But God through them hath given charterism and church incorporation a stinging rebuke. It is the opinion of the editor of the People's Defender that God never intended sinners and hypocrites to run and control in the affairs of his church. By devilish devices and hellish sycophancy they may at times attain to prodigious proportions even like the green bay tree, but divine justice is keen and will cut them down.

UNION, VICTORIOUS OVER HAMPTON.
On one of the finest days of the season Union and Hampton struggled for sixty minutes in their titanic night for piskinki supremacy, which resulted in Hampton swallowing the bitter pill of defeat at the close score of 3 to 0, while the victorious Union warriors unfurled their triumphant colors to the sky. Red and steel were here, there and everywhere. Under excellent leadership of Coach Robinson the home boys worked with clock-like precision and the superhumanly developed Unionites displayed such tenacity and tenement that were completely bewildered and knew not what to do. The Union gridiron asturpassed the visitors in every department of play.
Hampton tried to use her steam power drive and plow Union's line but she was astonished to find that the once weakness of the red and steel disappeared, then she resorted to passing which also proved to be Union's liking as all of her passes were broken up either by the nible edge or they fell into the waiting water. The circles would pass to either Taylor, Smith or Woods without the least hindrance.
Union's entire line held like a stone wall while the backs were constantly present with their bulk of power. Capt. Puryear played stellar ball both on the offense and defense. "Tank" Woods was a shining light and plowed the Hampton line with the same rebel team. The tanks are plowing the fields of Flamingo game was Union's from the opening whistle until the last minute was played. The decision came in the second quarter, when Hucles successfully booted the pigskin between the uprights. The red and steel supporters went wild with delight. Twice Union carried a ball to Hampton's three-yard line only to be rushed back and held the ponderous seaside backs in their tracks. Owls was easily the star for Hampton while the entire home aggregation comes in for the victory. The catching of long passes by Taylor and Gregory's forty-yard run were the features of the game. Hucles' punting and passing were superb.

ALLEN UNIVERSITY DEFEATS
PAINE COLLEGE BY THE SCORE
OF 6 TO 3 IN THE LAST QUARTER
Augusta, Ga., Nov. 8.—Allen had much trouble in defeating Paine here today 6 to 3. In the first quarter, Paine showed her superiority by keeping the ball in Allen's territory and by scoring her three with a field goal. In the second and third Paine came back strong and threatened Allen's goal several times. Another field goal was attempted from a very acute angle which missed its mark about six inches. Confusion among the spectators drew some of the players from the field which caused 5 yards penalty for the Paine boys with the ball in their possession on Allen's 5 yard line. This took the ball from the follows. Allen came back in the 4th period with a series of line plunges and succeeded in putting the ball across in the last few minutes of play. The final score was 6 to 3.

HORTENSE.
The pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Rev. J. L. Collins, offered his resignation after having served our church seven years and six months as pastor. We hate to give him up, yet with great pains we expected his resignation, he having been appointed State Superintendent of Missions by the entrance board at Nashville. He now entering upon his work. We pray that the great Head of the church may continue his blessing upon him. The funeral of Brother Ben Long was preached by Rev. J. L. Collins. He leaves a host of friends to mourn their loss. Rev Easley and Rev. J. C. Harden have a great work going on this week. They are building the Widows and Orphans Home. The house is up but not finished. Committee—R. L. Bartlett, T. W. Washington, J.

LET DEMOCRACY BE WORLD
WIDE BOTH IN SPIRIT AND
PRACTICE.
The war conditions grow steadily more serious. Now that Petrograd seems to be in the hands of the enemy and Russia apparently on the verge of civil strife and internal revolution, the allied forces are beginning to shake their heads significantly. But even though Russia should fall clear out of the war game, automatic Germany must and will in the long run be forced to acknowledge a world democracy. This for many reasons, among which is the fact that it is right that a world peace should not be concluded only on the ground of absolute justice to all nations and peoples, however weak and numerically small they may be. Nations should not be overrun and intimidated and their moral and commercial rights disregarded and their civil liberties restrained simply because they are small and some other nation is large and powerful. The Negro has, as well as many other dependent people, had some bitter experiences of restrained civil and social rights, and it is to be hoped that this war will not conclude until democracy in its highest and truest sense has been firmly and irrevocably established in all the world and for all the people.

SCORE GREAT SUCCESS.
The Junior Galena Class of the M. Olive Baptist Church of which Dr. C. H. Clark is the pastor, gave a very entertaining drama in the Sunday school room of the church on Monday night. The Sunday school of this historic church has taken on new life under the management of Mr. G. P. Baker as Superintendent and at a Teachers' Meeting it was decided to ask the Deacon's Council for three nights on which the young people of the church might entertain. This was readily granted by those in charge and consequently the Junior Galedas had a very successful "stunt night." Ma Dusenberry, Miss Marle Boyd, and Pa Dusenberry, Miss Myrtle Bldux, carried their gearls and boys too, on a concert tour. There were several creditable selections from Dunbar. One of the Miss Dusenberries, Miss Vivian Clarke, gave one of the best amateur renditions of Dunbar's "Little Brown Baby" we have ever heard. The other Dusenberry girl, Miss Allison, gave a charming rendition of "A Flight in the Kitchen." The older Dusenberry gear's speech was dramatically spoken with appropriate gestures and was "The Lightning flashed, the

thunder roared and killed a pig!" The most charming members of the cast, of which all the members were very charming were "Teenle Tiny Johnnie Little Dusenberry," Miss Nevada Allison, "Josiah Behave Yourself Dusenberry," Miss Josephine Dougkiss and Lias Dusenberry," Miss Annie Mal Dunson. These three young ladies made charming boys and their readings were delightfully funny. Miss Dougkiss objected strenuously to hearing the tune of the "Blues," while Miss Dunson was equally emphatic in her displeasure of people who skinned a possum before cooking. Miss "Chinch killer," Miss Willie Mae Rucker, played during the whole evening and proved to be an expert performer. The entertainment was thoroughly enjoyable and proved the merit and ability of the young women of Miss Boyd's class. Miss Boyd's dramatization of Dunbar's "Lias" was very good indeed, as was Miss Bidduxs dramatization of "Ole Black Joe."
Mrs. Maggie Fisher of 118 9th Ave. So., was called to Martin, Tenn. Tuesday evening, on account of the sudden, death of her sister, Mrs. Fannie McGavock Lawler.
