UNLIMITED RELIANCE—LOYAL TO THE FLAG—DEAN MILLER DELIVERS RINGING ADDRESS TO CONFERENCE
"The American nation can rely unlimitedly on the Negro to follow the flag wherever it may lead."
With these local words Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University recently closed his address before a conference which Dr. P. P. Chacon, U. S. Commissioner of Education, has called in Washington to discuss Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones' report on "Negro Education"—a study of the private and higher schools or colored people in the United States.
Dean Miller is an able egro leader—a man who has kept and well-trained mind, a wide experience and accurate knowledge of white people. Those who wish to know what representative Negro leaders themselves think will be interested in Dean Miller's other remarks:
"Leaders of the Negro race must be as well qualified as white leaders.
"There is one formula for race adjustment. It is the law of the road: 'Keep to the Right.' Patriotism is the aim of education."
The Negroes want more and better schools is the example, in the case of 30,000 Negroes in Texas who recently gave, during a single month, $20,000 for educational work.
Principal Nannie H. Burroughs, who represents an army of colored Baptist women and is at the head of a large girls' school in Washington, D.C., in her recent analysis of "Lynching and Negro Unrest," said: "Nothing remains to be done but to make and administer adequate laws and begin at the fireside to teach white children to respect the laws of our land; have a correct estimate of the value of human life." Let all Americans remember that one race cannot hate another without itself returning to savagery."
The Negro Exodus.
At the recent New Orleans meeting of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools the "Negro Exodus" was the liveliest subject discussed. An editorial writer in the Southern Workman (published by Hampton Institute) says:
"Speakers from the affected districts all over the South told why people were leaving their sections.
Some of the reasons given as the cause of proper consideration; poor school facilities; extremely low wages and the housing conditions; a desire for franchise and a growing eagerness for the common, everyday justice accorded to American citizens."
Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, in his epoch-making report on Negro Education, published by the U. S. Bureau of Education, shows that (1) the annual expenditure for public elementary schools for Negroes is $8,000,000 for an attendance of 1,200,000 which is a per capita of about six dollars and sixty-six cents; (2) for public secondary and higher schools, $1,215,112 for an attendance of 25,527, a per capita of about fifty-one dollars and sixty-odd cents.
Those who know what it costs to train white boys and girls in the public secondary and elementary to university grade, will appreciate how little training the Negro is receiving to prepare himself to become an efficient citizen in a democracy.
Patience and Loyalty.
Negro leaders stand together as one man on the question of loyalty to the country in the present crisis. They are everywhere telling the masses of colored people to be patient, very patient. They believe that God will soften the hearts of men and make justice prevail. They are urging the common people, however, to make big sacrifices to secure education, for they believe that education will win them far more than charity or legislation.
Negro masses still stand sorely in need of adequate school training. They are unorganized in their rural isolation as farmers or farm laborers. They believe in the white man who shows even a slight, unselfish interest in them. They are extremely conservative and "long-headed." They have a rare sixth sense and sense danger easily.
To those who know some of the deeper thoughts of the ablest Negro leaders and realize how many are the handicaps and hardships of the Negro masses, it is not surprising that unrest, which comes as the result of fear, fear that property may be destroyed or that life may be taken by the hands of would prevail and that thousands of Negroes good well as indifferent or worthless, should move into communities where wages seem to be high and where there seems to be more protection for life and property.
In the light of these facts, it is scarcely necessary to introduce the German agent to explain Negro disaffiliation. Those who have known Negroes for years and years and have had the opportunity of sharing the confidence of their leaders, have implicit belief in the Negroes' loyalty.
Those who know Negroes—rank and file as well as leaders—scout the rumors that German agents have, or have had, any appreciable influence among American Negroes.
The German agent is a unit in a complex organization. He deals best with those who are organized or can control organizing forces. The Negro while highly gregarious, does not become a unit in an organization that stands for anarchy, for disloyalty to Church or State, or for any renegade purpose. Wm. Anthony Aery

Home Coming at Tabernacle.
REV. H. M. BURNS AND HIS MEMBERS CELEBRATED THEIR ANNIVERSARY LAST SUNDAY.
More than 1,200 members and friends of the Tabernacle Baptist Church attended the four services last Sunday, which was designated as anniversary and Home Coming Day among the Tabernacle Baptist members. The celebration proper began Sunday at 9:30 a.m., when an unusually large attendance under the Sunday school forces and superintendent responded to the invitation.
A special program was rendered at the Sunday school where a splendid collection was raised. Then at eleven o'clock Rev. Richard Morton delivered an ally-sermon. While at three o'clock hour Rev. W. Whitaker, pastor of the St. John Baptist Church, filled the pulpit giving a follow-up sermon equally as logical. Rev. A. W. Porter, D. D., pastor of the Fifteenth Avenue Baptist Church, was master of ceremonies. At the night services, the pastor, Rev. H. M. Burns, D. D., delivered what is known as the "Home Coming Sermon." While the church is about twenty years old, and while the Rev. H. M. Burns has been its pastor for eleven years, this particular celebration was the seventh an

niversary of the acquiring of the present site and the opening of the church on South street. One of the interesting features of the entire day was the welcome address delivered by Dr. E. C. Martin, who said in his address:
'Master of Ceremonies, Dear Pastor, Fellow Members and Visiting Friends: Assuming for the moment the part of representative of our church in her name, I bid you all welcome and welcome the guests who do us the honor of being present with us on this memorable day, of celebrating our anniversary, of fulfilling her large and ever increasing duties to her children and through them to the advancement of God's kingdom.
Whatever has life is expected to grow. Tree dwarfs, grain, bird animals and fish fulfill this expectation, but man is no exception, for he, too, must grow bodywise and soulwise. We are so apt to magnify growth in body and mind, but forget almost wholly soul growth which must grow in knowledge of divine truth and of God.
Richer by the acquisition of a not unfruitful year, more vigorous, more bountiful to her members than ever and finally reaching out her helping hand to less fortunate ones who have long stood waiting and wistful at our gates, Tabernacle Baptist Church presents her to us today with a stronger appeal than ever, and a clearer right to every service we can render her—a service which, at its best, will fall short of the dictates and desires of our gratitude and our affection.
She lifes time of the youngest members of us she has changed as never before in the great battle against sin and evil. The field of Waterloo was won, said the Duke of Wellington, on the playground of Eton. The victory over the hosts of sin, which threaten the future of Christ's kingdom, is now being won, not on the playground, but by the reception of Christ as our leader and the subsequent attacks on sin through prayer and supplication.
Permit me to say in welcoming you to this, our annual homecoming and anniversary, that this growth to which we have already committed to the other single agency, to the character and business foresight of the man, who is now at our head in the person of Rev. H. M. Burns, D. D.
Growth takes time. The acorn becomes an oak in the course of many years. The time element is important in the spiritual realm. Christ emphasized this in the well known words, "First the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear." A fine robust and sturdy church can be produced in a year. It takes years. We become inwardly warm and tender, more than we should. We criticise others sharply by looking for greater results than the time well allow.
Flowers give blossoms, beauty and fragrance. Trees yield their crops of mellow fruit. The fields are covered with the golden grain. Each brings forth a product according to its nature. We welcome you to the fruits of our spiritual nature—love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance. Such fruits are far more difficult than that of golden or field, orchard or greenhouse. All our growth should lead to such fruits. Every year should witness in our lives. blossoms more beautiful, fragrance more sweet and fruits more mellow.
I thrice welcome you one and all to such feast at this our annual home-coming and anniversary."

OVER THE HEAD OF A POWERFUL OPPOSITION AND FOUL INFLUENCES THE MISSIONARY BAPTIST
Progressive State Convention of Arkansas A Sure Success.
Convened With the First Baptist Church, Helena, Arkansas, of Which Dr. G. A. Long, is Pastor.
The readers of the paper will call to mind, for more than ninety days, the columns of the paper have been full of urgent appeals to the Baptist Progressive forces to find their way to Helena on the 21st inst. for the purpose of holding our annual and educational and Missionary meeting. From the time that the meeting adjourned at Little Rock, Ark., one year ago, to the convening at Helena, on the above named date, efforts were begun throughout the state and most especially in Eastern Arkansas, by the Negro Baptist press and also various other methods to create such a tremendous foul influence and to set us such stubborn opposition, particularly it. Were we as well as improbable for the Convention to have any degree of success in its endeavor to prosecute the principles of Jesus Christ and his kingdom. But at this writing the scribe of these few lines is very pleased to tell the reading Baptist world that the attempts to make the meeting a failure through false statements and misrepresentations, utterly failed. The loyal workers of said convention throughout the state where our convention has representation and standing heed the call and on Sunday morning, President, B of the greatest Baptist Conventions J. P. Robinson, was delighted to call to order what the writer regards one for peace and harmony and constructive work that it has been ours to witness.
MEHARRY DENTAL ANNEX.
Our new dental annex was dedicated October 19th. It is placed on the west side of the old dental building, and is connected with it. It has a stone foundation, is constructed of brick and is three stories in height, including basement; forty-eight feet long and thirty feet wide. The upper story is to be used as a Dental Operatory, and the second for Junior laboratory work. A sufficient number of dental chairs has been procured to accommodate all the patients who may present themselves for clinical work in the future. The building is now in use.
A partition has been erected extending the entire length of the old Operatory, the South division to be used for Prosthetic work and the North divided into three sections; one for a dressing room, the next for an extraction room and the remainder fitted up with dental lathes for the use of the senior class for laboratory purposes.
The new operator is supplied with gas and compressed air and in addition to the windows on the three sides has a large skylight which furnishes an abundance of light for the middle of the room. The floor is covered with Battleship limoem.
Because of the heroic struggle necessary to complete the requirements for a medical education, there is implanted within the heart of the successful aspirant a love and devotion for those who assist, akin to hero worship.
REV. J. A. BROWN,
Pastor Mt. Zion Baptist Church,
whose congregation tendered him a banquet on Nov. 19th.
MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
The Mt. Zion Baptist Church on Jefferson street entertained their pastor on the night of November 19th with an elaborate banquet at which many of the leading men and pastors of the city were present. Mt. Zion is one of the strongest churches in the city and in the few years that Rev. A. J. Brown has been the pastor has made rapid strides along the road of progress. Every department of the church has grown wonderful and with members are wonderful in love with their proverbs. The various speakers on the program were very loud in their praise of Dr. Brown and his work. The women of the church served an elegant reast.
Dr. G. A. Long (the little Baptist hero and giant) and his unselfishness, Christian hearted members and friends demonstrated to the visitors and delegates that magnanimous spirit can be a Christian and a people on do. P. U. Convention preceded the convention of churches, presided over by Brother G. W. Milsap and his official staff was a great success. It is to be remembered that this organization is only one year old and in its first annual session, laid upon the table for education, $162.91. The young people of our convention deserve the highest commendation and encouragement of those who are interested in the development of man and women in the Missionary Baptist Church. Dr. H. A. Boyd was the invited guest and the National representative to the convention. His presence together with his sayings were quite inspiring to the B. Y. P. U. workers. In fact our representative of the National Baptist Publishing House holds a place of recognition in the heart of the Missionary Baptist Progressive forces of Arkansas. The convention of churches was graced with many visitors, among the distinguished ones, R. K. James of R. H. Boyd and R. K. James of the Represeting offices of the Secretary of the Publishing Board and Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, along with them it is a pleasure for the writer to mention the name of Dr. D. B. Gaines the Secretary of the Home Mission Board of the above
N.A.A.C.P.TO DEFEND DR.L.BUNDY
ACCUSED OF EAST ST. LOUIS
MURDER—OUTCOME OF RIOTS
—NEGROES BOTH SUFFERS
AND VICTIMS IN AFFAIR.
New York, Nov. 28.—(Special to the Glbe.)—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has just won a tremendous victory for the American Negro in the unanimous decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Louisville Segregation Case, but the Association does not intend to stand still upon that victory. It has already undertaken a fight or almost equal importance, the fight of securing for the colored men accused and convicted of murder in the East St. Louis riots a fortuitous and ever-beginning under the law to which they are entitled. The Association is undertaking this fight not only in behalf of the individual men concerned but in order that the blame of the initial cause of the horrors which took place at East St. Louis shall not be snuffed upon the Negro race.
Although the colored people at E. St. Louis were sufferers and victims, several hundred of them have been beaten and killed, the result of the legal process thus far has been the conviction of ten colored men with sentences of fourteen years each in the penitentiary. On the other hand, two or three white men have been convicted and given long sentences, only a few days a year of the white men charged with rioting, and two or three men each, a sentence in some parts of the country is often imposed for being merely drunk and disorderly. Great interest now centers around the trial of D. Leroy Bundy. Dr. Bundy is a prosperous dentist and one of the most prominent colored men of E. St. Louis. He is charged with ineflicting riot and murder, and it is declared that the State will ask for the death penalty in his case. The National Association has already taken steps to secure the very best possible defense and will offer efforts or expense to give him a fair trial and the fullest protection under the law.
Dr. Bundy's case is not merely an individual case. It is in a large sense the case of the entire race, and so the Advancement Association makes a national appeal for co-operation and funds to assist in the defense of Dr. Bundy. Already the St. Louis Branch, from the day immediately following the riots, has been doing magnificent work, the Branch is now the advocate for benefit of refugees, in collecting evidence against the rioters, and in defending Negroes who were accused, almost $30,000. The St. Louis Branch is still putting forth every effort, with the National Association standing behind it and working through it. Dr. Bundy's trial begins this week. It is a trial in which every good citizen, ever lover of law and order and true democracy, should be interested. To all such, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People makes this appeal. Contributions may be sent to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York.
Mr. Rufus O'Neal spent Sunday in Christiana, Tenn.
named convention. These great men and their advice electrified the entire convention.
The sermons preached by Dr. F. H. Cook, Rev. N. Nichols, T. S. Elmore and the president of the convention in the person of Dr. J. P. Robinson, were excellent. We refer particularly to the sermon preached by Dr. F. A. Cook which was the educational sermon, for the reason it was a master piece. It demonstrated to those who heard it that the doctor was the man of the hour. The convention raised in round numbers, $700. All phases of our work were represented, both state and National in the disbursement. President M. C. Gaines held an executive session of her Board and formulated plans by which the Baptist Women of Arkansas might raise their prorata of the ten thousand dollars on the training school which is located at Nashville, Tenn. In the same session they presented $25 for the promotion of the State work. The leaders of these various state organizations shall never forget the kind and hospitable way that Dr. G. A. Long and his members and friends cared for the convention. The convention closed its work with a deal of enthusiasm and encouragement to begin another years' work Dr. F. H. Cook and the Shiloh Baptist Church of North Little Rock will entertain the 1918 session. More to follow.
MEHARRY NEWS
DR. O'NEAL DEAD - OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST.
The remains of Dr. S. A. O'Neal who died at Henderson, Ky., reached this cemetery at St. Paul. A memorial service was held at St. Paul Church. Sunday, Nov. 25, at 2:00 o'clock p. m. Dr. O'Neal was a member of the class of 1888. He selected Kentucky as a field for his activities and continued the practice of his profession there for more than thirty years.
HUBBARD HOSPITAL
Every ward, nearly every bed in Hubbard Hospital is occupied. The work at this institution is progressing admirably under the efficient management of Miss Walker, the head nurse. All the young ladies in training take kindly to her suggestions and the work goes smoothly on
THE MEHARRY NEWS.
The late copy of the Meharry News is just off the press. Among other interesting features will be found a long list of graduates who so generously contributed towards the $10,000 Endowment Fund pledged. The names included in the list represent those who have rendered in whole or in part the volunteer pledges made.
THE Y. M. C. A.
On last Sunday 3:30 p. m., the Meharry Y. M. C. A. enjoyed a splendid program rendered by representatives of the Fisk Y. M. C. A. It is pleasing to note the close ties which unite these religious bodies. These organizations are strong forces in these institutions and give a splendid opportunity for the development of a high standard of Christian living in the student body. The Meharry men look forward to another interchange of services. Y. Y. Roman, regarded as one of the forceful platform men of the race will address the Meharry Y. M. C. A., December 2nd. Every student in the school should hear this noted lecturer.
MEHARRY ORCHESTRA CONCERT
That the student body is interested in the perpetuity of the good name of the school is again demonstrated by the efforts put forth to keep the public eve focused upon it. As a means of recreation the musically inclined students maintain a first class orchestra. They decided that they could make this past time profitable by giving concerts for the school. The object selected is an effort to add to the sum of the Meherry Endowment Fund. It will be remembered that every student in the school conducts concerts a few months ago and after they gave from their scanty purses, still they found the sum short of $10,000 mark. The Faculty, Alumni and a few friends have already paid in about $8400, but the desired $10,000 is not yet in hand. The aggregation composing the orchestra want to supplement the sum already in hand by this concert effort. The Nashville public has always been generous and the Meherry boys are expecting a large number of Greater Nashville's music loving people to crowd the Auditorium. Others concerts may be given in other sections of the city and even in the city. The will be Thanksgiving services in Meherry Auditorium, Thursday morning, beginning at 10 o'clock. But what have we for which to be thankful? High cost of living, scarcity of food, coal, etc.
If the few brief days during which
our government has been in the war can bring on such a change, what then can be the plight of poor France, Belgium and Servia? All three of these countries, lying in the wake of the most devastating "pest" of which civilized records account. Not so for a few days only, but think, since July, 1914. We shall meet gladly on Thursday morning and thank Him, who holds in his hands the destiny of men and nations that our cities are not held waste. That our coast towns have not been the victim of any hostile air raids. That our womanhood has not been outraged. That the stink of dead men's bones does not poison the air of our free country. As we return thanks let us also breathe a silent prayer for those who are so much less fortunate than are we.
TESTAMENTS AND MELODIES TO BE SENT TENNESSEE BOYS — BENEFIT CONCERT.
Since the announcement of a vifor direct from Camp Meade that the Negro men in training are expressing their desire for testimonies and son's books, that they may have devotions at leisure hours, the shiners of the city have taken the initiative in complying with this request. A his concert has been prepared to take place from Anderson early in December. The proceeds will be used in securing testimonies and son's books to the Negro soldiers from Tennessee.
GREAT DAY FOR MEHARRY
COLLEGE.
Dedication of Two New Buildings Marks Epoch in History of School.
Yesterday was an especially happy day for those interested in the progress of Meharry Medical and Dental College. In this, the forty-second year of the school's history, the realization of the hopes and aspirations 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 donation 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 hall 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 J. 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 from its beginning, he introduced several speakers, the first of whom 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 true to every ideal for which Dr. Hubbard has given 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 be come servants of humanity in 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, fifth, disease 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 to spur people on to an awakening to the great possibilities of life and the work each can accomplish. He said the important thing is to find one's self, that "God is willing to co-operate with man 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 while 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."
Mr. Earle Scales and little Miss Jennie Rowena Scales spent Saturday in Nashville on business, and visited the State Normal.

CHURCH HONORS SUPERINTEN-
DENT—EJCELLENT PROGRAM
Brooklyn, N. Y., Nov. 25.—The celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of N. B. Dodson, as superintendent of the Concord Episcopal Sunday School in the town of EJCELLENT was the big event on the week in Sunday school caricles. Jesus is superintendent Walter K. Taylor presided over the literary program renamed Sunday afternoon and the to-losing memorial person delivered addresses on uncertain phases of the superintendent's work.
Mrs. A. E. Calloway, one of the women who are Dodson from loo a lot of spikes of his strangles to get an education and then or his early struggles to put the school on a firm footing. Mrs. Calloway has been a teacher in the school for thirty-five years. N. B. Dodson as a business Sunday school superintendent was ably presented by Mr. Graham I. Carter, who has been a teacher for thirty-eight years. Mr. Carter showed his durals the present in his book, "The Superintendent's School has raised $11,355,000, spent for literature and other necessities $11,000, and given to the church $3,000, this, he said, was a remarkable showing.
Edward L. Faulson, superintendent of the intermediate department, spoke of Mr. Dodson as an organizer as seen by the grading of the school. Prof R. M. Meroney, secretary of the Carlion Avenue Branch Y, M. C. Murray, superintendent on "The Superintendent as a Citizen." F. G. Warner, superintendent of the Holy Trinity Sunday School, was the representatives of all the other schools of the denomination in Brooklyn. Mr. Warner made a most interesting speech. A. J. Carey, first vice president of the New England Baptist Sunday School Convention, brought greetings from that body. Other speakers were Mr. Jordan, the principal of Shiloh School at Elizabeth, N. J., and Miss Violet A. Johnson of Summit, N. J., who was a teacher in the school the first three years of Mr. Dodson's administration. The Rev. Dr. William M. Moss, pastor of Concord, made a most timely address which he concluded by presenting the superintendent with a silver offering on behalf of the church. Mr. Dodson was the recipient of many letters of congratulation and other tokens of esteem from friends and institutions in and out of the city. Among the institutions which sent letters were the Hampton Institute in Collegiate Institute and the World's Sunday School Association. The school has an enrollment of over 600 pupils and 52 officers and teachers.
SERMON DELIVERED BY REV. J. S. SHELL In the Union District Association
Subject: "The Distinctive Principles of the Baptists." Lecture: 1 Cor. 3:11. "No other foundation can be laid save the one already laid."
(1) The peculiarity of the principles of the Baptist church, they are unimprovable, they can not be improved, men have destroyed the rule of their churches trying to relay the foundation of these principles.
(2) The principle of receiving members into the church. This is one of the most particular rules. No person can do the church until they are received and the membership from its membership but believers. Remember brother minister, listen, you cannot read people into the church but they must be born again. So many churches have grown to be tee-cold in view of the fact they have abhored this particular part of the distinctive principle of the church.
(3) A majority rule in anything, let a member be ever so poor or his rich vote only counts one. Our denomination is divided today from the District to the National, all because certain men have attempted to over ride this particular principle, but brother it will not work because God is against you. My text says no greater foundation can be laid than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.
(4) An uncompromising principle. Some of our brethren have ceased diring and are now seeking a compromise, but the principles of the Baptist church are uncompromising. Fight as long as you can see an enemy. When Christ conquered enemies of earth he sought others down in hell.
(5) Principle of baptism. This seems to be a more particular principle in view of the fact Christ expressed this principle by going through the real act. First he went to Jordan. There was no sauce for him to go to Jordan if sprinkling wine gave him. Next he came straight upway of the water that was uncalled for, if pouring would have done. So the true principle of baptism is a burial in water by a Baptist preacher.
(6) Our principles is to fight and fight to win. Our assurance of winning is we have a winning captain, his ammunition never gives out, he fights with water, fights with hall, fights with poverty and disease.
(7) After the war is over we will all and have bounty. Yours for Christ.

TWO BILLION TO BE RAISED
PROF. W. J. HALE ON COM
MITTEE
Two billion dollars is to be raised to carry on the war for democracy through the sale of saving stamps and certificates. Tennessee's part of this war loan will be forty seven million dollars. The campaign is to begin Dec. 3, and continue until the amount has been raised. It is thought that the campaign will last six to twelve months.
At a meeting of the executive committee, appointed by the United States treasury department at the Commercial Club Tuesday morning at 10:30 o'clock steps to effect organization to cover the state more completely perhaps than for any campaign in its history was started. The purpose is to pass every woman, woman-child in Tennessee of all races. The object is to bring all together in the patriotic support of the country in raising the money that is absolutely necessary to push the war to a successful end.
Gov. Tom C. Rye, who was to have presided, was prevented from being present on account of his presence being needed at the state prison, where there was serious trouble last night, and sent assurance of his support. Mr. Thomas R. Preston of Chattanooga, one of the foremost bankers of Tennessee, who has been appointed director of the campaign for Tennessee, presided, and explained the movement, the purpose of which is to raise $2,000,000,000 for war purposes by the generals, and vindicates in denominations of 25 cents and $5. Mr. Preston explained the plans in an able manner, and emphasized the importance of working for the success of the campaign.
Mr. Preston referred to the work of the colored people in Chattanooga, and said that the colored man is to be an important factor in the organization. Prof. W. J. Hale, president of the Colored State Normal, is a member of the executive committee for the colored schools, and was invited to speak. Prof. Hale predicted that the colored people of the state will do their share, as they have in other movements. Twenty men from the colored agricultural and industrial school are in the army, and Prof Hale refers to the good record they are making. Prof. Hale was elected to organize the colored people throughout the state.

MOREHOUSE COLLEGE
The week beginning November 18, 1917, was one of unusual interest for Morehouse College, Sunday, Kev C. D. Hubert set the cycle working with one of his quiet, soul-stirring sermons in prayer-meeting. He continued through the week discussions on various chapters of the New Testament at each morning chapel service, save Tuesday, when President Hughes visited. Since President Hope has been away from the college on not less than five trips since its opening and thereby failed to meet every student individually, he assumed the work as Dean throughout the week. By taking on this task he also showed how he wants those duties performed, and took the affair of attending Billy Sunday's colored meeting up cheerfully. We are always glad to greet our old students and alumni and hear their words of advice and admonition, as Kev E. G. Thomas, of Newman, can witness as a result of his visit to our chapel Tuesday morning.
On Wednesday Mr. H. C. Lyman spoke to us for a few minutes. In addition to giving us light on his great work, "The Sunday School Teacher Training Class," which has had his undivided attention for some six years, he suggested that we adopt some means by which we may cheer our fellowmen in the trenches or on the battlefield. Vast improvement has been noted in the work in rhetoricals, which is greatly emphasized by the college to the extent that every Thursday morning time is set aside for such.
For the past seven years Kemper Harrelrd has charmed the music lovers of Atlanta to such an extent that his performances are received with deepest appreciation by his vast audiences. On Friday night he seemed better than ever in the rendition of his several numbers. He was accompanied by Dr. D. J. C. K. members of his program were Miss Scurcean, reader, and Mr. G. E. Cohron, solist, who were very, very good indeed. The Morehouse Orchestra rendered three selections superbly, and will on Saturday night journey to Camp Gordon to do their bit in jolling along the men in khaki. It is generally thought that the game with Morris Brown University on Wednesday ending M. C. 28, M. U. 26, and M. S. 25, son for the Tigers, who have suffered only one defeat in three years. The Tigers regret that this year they will lose Captain George Warren, who has had a very fine season.
SAWED OFF HIS HORNS
The Rev. J. H. Hammonds, discoursing with some of his friends some six or eight months ago, was pleased to announce to them that his horns were growing out, referring of course, to the success he was having, and the influence he was gaining in the ranks of his corporation brethren. He gave his friends to understand that he had been kept in the background for a long while, but everybody had him to reckon with now, since his horns were growing out and indeed had already grown keen and sharp. It appears however in the full use of his horns he happened to gore the wrong person or at least shook his head as though he might proceed to hook and horn things considerably unless he was given considerable attention and rubbing down. In fact, it is said that he actually shook his head in a somewhat warlike mood at the president of the college and told him a few things. In fact, his horns turned in an objectionable and threatening way, became a menace to that gang of autocrats, who have long been accustomed to having their way without or hindrance. Thus a scheme, deep and broad, seems to have been laid to rid him of his war like appendages... In harmony with a well laid plan, a few of the slaves of the wouldbe lords, lamented him down at the association and held him hard and fast while with saw and knife, Moderator Caver proceeded to officially dishorn him. He is reported to have bucked and yelled mightily in protest, but when they got through with him he was as hornless of a moody calf.

THE VANGUARD ATTEMPTS TO
MISLEAD THE PUBLIC.
It is all right to contend, and to use all proper means and methods to win in a contest, but to deliberately and maliciously misrepresent things to so distort and juggle the facts until they are misleading, in fact to send forth in public print a real "lie," is so beneath a real Christian gentleman until he had much rather lose in a public controversy than resort to such practices. The Vanguard man, in his attempt to helpthe and ignore the financial assistance given to the Arkansas Baptist College by the real Missionary Baptists who do not agree with the management of our educational work in the state, draws himself down into the gutter, into that strata of humanity occupied by the world's basest. He permits himself to play the role of the lying deceiver, and send broadcast to the world statements that he knows are misleading. We do not wonder at the stagnant, non-progressive condition of many of our public enterprises, for in many instances they have at their heads men who do not hesitate to perform immoral, un-Christian deeds and utter the most malicious falsehood to carry a point with the unsuspecting and trusting public. In his attempt to have the people believe that three men, the (triumvirate) "stole the money as usual," he both at the same time attempts to assassinate, by ambush, human character and destroy the regular organization of the association. Why not be honest with your conscience, with your brethren, who took the lead they have to help you and the public, whose minds and souls you are trying to corrupt. Mr. Vanguard, why not like an honest man and Christian gentleman, say, through your paper that those men stood for money for the institution, and since our difference and separation they have been replacing it? You know that those educational notes justly made by the institution are in the bank and are being cared for by what you term the rumpers, for you know that you and Dr. Morris carried $1,000.00 in cash down (in cash) last year and tried to set them and could not because of the under study between the bank and the Union District Association. For a man whom the people have elevated and trusted with place and power to mislead that people by the foul means of lying, constitutes a major crime. The diabolism of which no gentleman would be guilty. Let the public bear in mind all other statements by whomsoever made, to the contrary, that the Union District association assembled at Woodson appropriated the neat sum of $579.75 to the Arkansas Baptist College. Any man or set of men who says anything else or preaches any other statement than that are liars and base deceivers and the truth is not in them. We defy and challenge any man of honor to dispute us.

MISS HODGE ENTERTAINS MISS EMMA D. BROOKS.
Miss Emma D. Brooks was highly entertained at the Academy Hall of the Immaculate mother on Stevenson Ave, November fourteenth. The hall was beautifully decorated for the occasion. Music and dancing were enjoyed until a late hour, when punch and Honey Boy Tumble cakes were despised of.
The Guests numbered fifty. Miss Brooks leaves Wednesday night for St. Louis to make her future home. She will be accompanied by her mother. Miss Brooks and Miss Hodge have been quite friendly for a long time and will miss each other very much. These two young young ladies have been students at the Academy. She leaves many friends, all wish her happiness in her new home city.

THE RAILROADS.
There seems to be gvod reason for

the workers visited 56 different homes

points out the fact that so large a work
would be impossible except for the
‘efficient service of a large number o
‘the women in the eity and the service
rendered by Fisk University, an

TOOK HIGH GROUND.
‘The Misstonary Baptist Progressive
State Convention in its session last
week in Helena, took high ground,
in that it sont a telegram of Frater-
nal greetings to the Arkansas Bap-
tist State Convention, assembled in
Pine Bluff, As it is both customary
among well bred Baptists and the
duty of real Christians of the same
faith to exchange greetings, it
would not be regarded as anything
out of the ordinary, were it not for
the recent upheavals among the
Baptists of the state causing the or
ganization of a new convention in th
State, and perhaps somewhat strain
ed relations among them. The nev
‘convention has only been in existenc
two years and as yet hath not rec
ognized as a regular organized bods
of Baptists by what may be properl;
termed the old convention. I
seemed befitting therefore for th
new or Progressive Convention Con
vention to extend first the friend);
hand, For however much rea
Christian men may differ, they d
not let their diflerences degenerat
into‘hate, but a little strange to sa
that the “‘old lady,” the mother con
vention had not at the close of th
session Saturday night accepted th
hand of her sparkling, robust, prom
ising, well formed, intelligent, rapid
ly growing daughter. Guess she wil
however, for- that progressive litt
girl ts one to be proud of.
‘The Missionary Baptist Progres-
sive State Convention set a high
mark for the intelligent dispatch of
business last week in Helena, but
this ts not to be wondered at, when
the personel of the convention is con-
sidered, With that renown Baptist

ments for Ph, D. After this, in the
year 1913 he was awarded a “Larned
fellowship in political economy at
Yale, the first ever awarded a Negro
in that institution.” For two years
Prof. Robinson has been working in
Cincinnats, where he is now the active
secretary of the Negro Civic Welfare
Commitive of the Couneil of Social
Agencies, and it is said that his study
of conditions in that city will serve
as his Ph. D. thesis at Yale as well

ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY
ENTERTAINS RECORD-BREAK-
ING CROWD.
Sacred Concert Captivates Audience.
Prominent among the attractions of the year at the university which have called forth favorable comment by critics of first rank was the sacred concert given at Roger by a chorus of well selected voices under the special direction and training of Mrs. A. M. Townsend, wife of President M. T. Townsend. The program was in keeping with a policy adopted three years ago in that an annual concert is given, the compositions of the best known authors being used.
The hour for the concert was 6:30 o'clock. Sunday morning Dr. A. M. Townsend, accompanied by A. M. Townsend, Jr., motored to Castilian Springs to preach a special sermon, and at late eventide he had not come. The crowd steadily gathering from all directions, quietly but (gently filled the spacious Morehouse Chapel. Men and women of all walks of life attended the evention had not the least hesitancy in expressing the fact that Roger Williams, an "old star" was shinging with unsurpassed brilliancy.
One big Hudson Super Six bringings Dr. and Mrs. Hale was parked among the many cars in the campus, while slowly driving through the iron gates President Hale, of State Normal, alaccompanied by Mrs. Hale, many teachers and students in cars, all coming on account of their regard for Roger.
The halls were filled. The orchestra under the direction of Dr. Hampton was ready for the opening march, for ten minutes would bring the hour for starting the program. From with out the old bell cried out in assemblage. From within the tick of the clock alternated with a tiny zephyr, the wind whisper. Above the incessant roar of the mighty Cumberland the deafening noise of a motor was heard, and the dazzling light of a high powered "Oldmobile" was seen. It was President Melvin Townsend, who quickly brought his "purring" motor to a stop and making his way through the crowd bowing and smiling to a host of friends stepped upon the stage, 125 to 125, scared it and at 6:30 we simply scared it and at 6:30 we. My friends, we rejoice to see you here, and we are now ready to begin our program.
The setting was one of resplendend beauty. Beautiful palms and lowering ferns adorned the stage, while creeping moss entwined the winow sills. At a given signal by Mrs. Townsend, the strains of music, "Last Hope," by Gottschalk, were heard, with Miss White at the piano and the orchestra accompanying. The end of the overture brought forth the clear notes of well trained singers, who marched to the stage with case and grace. Rev A. O. Kenney then invoked the divine blessings. "Gloria" (Twelfth Mass) by Mozart began the program, while "Whispering Hope." On Divine Redemption and assisted numbers from Mascari Gounod, Parks and Pinsaui joined in regulated succession. "Steal away to Jesus" by Perkins and "His eye is on the Sparrow," the latter by Miss M. Geneva Bender were unusually pleasing an effective. The recessional was impressive and marked the close of a program long to be remembered.
Many efficient critics of music showered Mrs. Townsend with congratulations for the artistic grace skill and richness of tone her singers possessed.
The marked success of the music department is due to the untiring work of Mrs. Townsend.
Y. M. C. A.
Dr. J. H. Grant, D. D., the now pastor of Payne Chapel A. M. E. Church, will address the men's meeting Sunday afternoon at four o'clock at the colored Y. M. C. A. Rev. Mr. Grant comes to Nashville from Memphis. Teen, highly recommended as a thinker and a forceful speaker. Mayor William Gupton brought a message last Sunday which was highly pleasing to the large number of men present. Dr. C. V. Roman, in behalf of the Association, thanked the Mayor in strong and positive terms for a message which had no impact on the people, simply addressed himself to men who were no better and no worse than other men—just men, ordinary men.
The speaker was introduced by Mr. Wm. Crawford, chairman of the religious work committee. Mr. Bona led the singing and sang a solo Chairman H. A. Boyd presided at the meeting. He touched briefly upon the need to Camp Meade where he saw and shook hands with a number of the Nashville boys. He called the attention of the men present to a movement which was some what in progress for purchasing a Bible and a copy of jubilee songs for each Nashville Negro boy who has and will go forth in defense of the monarchy. The audience interested in the movement leave at the Association fifty cents or a collar, covering the bare cost of these books.
The boys of Company "L" 585th Infantry held Sunday school in the dining room of their barracks. After prayer and two songs in which every one engaged heartily, the lesson Psalms was beautifully taught and proved very interesting. The leading thought of the lesson was "Train the Lord." Twenty verses of the Scripture were repeated. The attendance was twenty-two. The superintendent, H. A. Glen, Assistant secretary, Chester J. Westfield. The Christian spirit among the men is very strong. There is a deal of interest manifested by Bible study. We are very grateful for the literature sent us by Mr. Landers of the National Baptist Publishing Board and appreciate the interest taken by the National Baptist Publishing Board in our spiritual welfare. We are many who are willing and well meaning, but they need teaching. We ask your prayers that we may be able to use this literature effectively, and in leading these men from darkness to the marvelous light.

Score of 5 to 0 Piled Up on Red and Black.
By a score of 5 to 0, Fisk University defeated Walden University in the Thanksgiving football game that was played Thursday. The turkey day affair took place at the Athletic Park. Both universities presented strong teams and the score falls to indicate the fierceness of the struggle. From the time the whistle below and the kickoff was made the gridirons from both schools battled fiercely for supremacy and at one stage of the game, though it would be a scoreless tie as the pigskin was seesawing from one school's territory to the other. Every conceivable tact of football was resorted to. The best kickers, the most expert forward passes of the two teams were called upon to relieve the situation but it seemed for a time that none were equal to the special Sealers. Walden was within five yards, only to be hurled back for losses or to the ball by some unfortunate play, after it was recovered by Fisk, was soon kicked out of danger. This condition was not changed in the first quarter nor in the first half. It was in the first quarter of the second half that Fisk succeeded in whirling the ball toward Walden's goal, when it was within twenty yards of a beautiful by force of the Fisk players who ran for the touchdown. The cheering of the Fisk contingent was deafening but the enthusiasm and the support that the Walden team received from its supporters was never daunted. They sang, they yelled, they put on a bolt front, while on the other hand the well-trained rooters of Fisk answered at once. This was the end of the season. The team only demonstrated the fact that both teams were practically evenly balanced. Students from the other schools were divided in their choice so that both Walden and Fisk has strong supporters. Walden University players were as jubilant in deaf as were t he Fisk players over victory as it was claimed that they felt that they had rendered vemom service by keeping the score down. On the other hand Fisk felt proud of his team's ability to pelled to use one of the student-holds as coach, since the regular coach left and went to the army.

It will be a pleasurable announcement to natrons of the Orpheum Theatre to know that Miss Ann Ann will be seen here next week in "Peg O My Heart," for the first time at popular prices. "Peg" has undoubtedly been one of the most successful comedies of recent years, its great prosperity is attributed largely to the charming principal character which J. Hartley Manners has created, a native Irish-American girl who contrasts so charmingly and refreshingly with the convention bound English relatives she goes to visit. Miss Ann Pittwood, whose delightful personality so naturally fits the part of "Peg," heads the company and as a result the comedy has had a great following in the cities she has played, as it had in New York during its phenomenal life. The story, it will be remembered, tells the attempts Chichesters to teach "Peg" the elements of worldly behaviour during the time she is an inmate and their household. Their are in vain, for polite instructions roll on her like water from a duck's back, but her natural qualities of frankness and good nature and her irresistible charm finally carry off her his feet the English nobleman who is a friend of the family, and despite the contemptuous treatment

DEDICATION OF ANDERSON AN
ATOMICAL HALL.
Several hundred persons, with bowed heads, listened to the most solemn declaration and prayer which was said by Bishop Thomas Nicholson of Chicago, in dedication of the Anderson Anatomical Hall and dental annex, new buildings just completed for Mehairy Medical College, exercises for which took place Friday afternoon, October —. The buildings were afterwards inspected by the great assemblage, and many were the congratulations paid President George W. Hubbard, to whose untiring efforts are due the great success of this institution. The anatomical hall is the gift of one of the graduates of the school, Dr. J. W. Anderson, of Dallas Texas, who contributed $10,000 in cash for its erection.
Exercises incident to the dedication of the buildings were held in the Meharry auditorium, and there were gathered on the platform an array of prominent persons as has seldom been seen on a like occasion. There

were bishops, college presidents, not only chancellors and others distinguished along numerous lines. The principal address delivered here was by Bishop Nicholson, who was formerly secretary of the educational board of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Bishop Nicholson has long been identified with the interests of Meharry College, and in his address showed that he possesses a thorough knowledge of the great work President Hubbard has done in Nashville in building up the greatest Negro school in the world. He spoke on "Some Humahitarian Aspects of Education," and he declared that while God has somewhere hidden an antidote for every disease, he requires man to discover it. This is in order that man shall put the spirit of service and sacrifice in his efforts.
The speaker declared that there is no class of men who do a larger humanitarian service than the educated Christian physician. He spoke of the Christian spirit upon which Meharry Medical College was founded. In speaking of the gift of $10,000 made by Dr. Anderson for the erection of the building to be dedicated, he expressed great satisfaction that a Negro is financially able to make such a contribution, but said he was more delighted at the spirit manifested and because he had the disposition to make the gift.
Thomas Jesse Jones, United States department of education, paid a high tribute to President Hubbard, and to his audience he stated that he con-

sideder that he could say nothing more appropriate than to urge every Meharry man to succeed. Dr. James I. Vance, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, was introduced, and said that Bishop Nicholson, in his address, had named the word that spells the deed, "service." He spoke of the significance of the occasion and declared that there were two heroes on this occasion—the white man, who has rendered such a service to his country and the Negro people, and the black man who has come under his influence and caused him to give this building. "It is not so much for its size, but for its significance. Yet, the real hero is that invincible person," concluded Dr Vance.
Dr. Hambleton, acting dean of the medical department of Vanderbilt University, said: "We rejoice with you today in this achievement. Vanderbilt is in sympathy with you and congratulates you upon the increased opportunity which has come to you." An interesting speaker was Bishop C. H. Phillips, of the C. M. E. Church, who is also a medical graduate of Meharry. Dr. C. V. Roman, representing the medical faculty, declared the gift of the new building as epoch-making, saying that it is the largest gift that has come to any of the freedman schools from an alumnus. Greetings from the Methodist Episcopal Church were brought by Dr. E. B. Chappell, who spoke briefly, and Dr. J. B. Singleton, representing the faculty, told something of the history of this department.
or the first time one of the local trustees of Meharry, Charles Nelson, appeared before the friends of the school, and he expressed pleasure that he is able to serve in such capacity. He spoke of the great service which has been rendered by President Hubbard. "I am proud to have my name linked to such an institution," he said. The address of O. J. Timothy was the next made, and he also brought a hearty response from the audience.
The concluding speaker was Dr. W. F. Tillett, dean of the school of religion of Vanderbilt University. "The Lord had a work to do in Nashville and in the southland," declared Dr. Tillett, "and for our colored brothers, also, and he got a man to do it. He always gets a good man for his work. He therefore got the most available man to build Meharry." Referring to the small beginning of the school, Dr Tillett, "and for our colored brothers man in a little place than a little man in a big place. But toiling on at Meharry, you now have a big man in a big place."—Nashville Tennessee.
