VOLUME XIII.
CENTRAL SCHOOL NEEDED FOR THE NEGROES
PEARL HIGH DOSEN'T MEET DEMANDS—INACCESSIBLE LOCATION—COMMITTEE VISITS WHITES.
Dissatisfaction that has been evident ever since the Board of Education located the Pearl High School in the inaccessible location which was declared then and which becomes more apparent was illogical, broke out a new at the meeting of the Board Tech. This week when strong resolutions were adopted calling upon the Board of Education and the City Commission to give a central school with modern facilities that would be in keeping with just duties of the forty thousand Negro citizens of the city, a large per cent of whom are tax payers. In the discussion at the Board of Trade it developed that dissatisfaction has always exited over the present location of the school. It was even brought out at the recent meeting at the Pearl High School, where Mayor and several members of the Board of Education smoke, and it is said were the members of the Board were not pronounced in their disapproval, not only of the present location and building, but of the meager provisions made and the small amount of money expended in what was supposed to be a very up-to-date and modern high school. A number of severely criticized the administration of school affairs, making that the present building was under investment in appearance and convenience, speak, over many of the grammar schools of the whites. It was shown that cities like Knoxville, Louisville, Covington and others far smaller than Nashville, with a smaller Negro population, enjoy better privileges in a modern high school than did Nashville. In the discussions that have taken place to time it became apparent, declaring that the prominent members of the Board that the Negroes have been double crossed. "We were promised if we would support the white people getting a high school building we would be given one. We were promised that this high school would be not less than one hundred fifty or perhaps two hundred thousand dollars, a modern structure, centrally located, one that would be a credit to the cities of Nashville, one that would be other southern cities, one that would be keeping with Nashville's first place in educational life of the South, ranking it as does an educational center
Believing that the white people meant what they said and they would live up to their promise, we joined in in helping to put over the boy's issued for the white school. We did not even choose the late annex to the white high school. When they shall have finished it, it will be equivalent to a university, both in its curriculum, its appearance and its modern appliances. But when we were finally given a building it turns out to be a shabby, commonplace, ordinary building that could have been put up at most for fifty thousand dollars, five blocks from any car line, cannot be reached except by an inconvenient route and when the weather is bad the children would have numerous many of the streets where there are no side walks. It is out of the way for the children on the east side and those who live in the extreme south part of the city must leave home in the real early part of the morning, some before breakfast, in order to reach school at all.
Out of the two million dollar bond issue which was to be used for school purposes, the palmy sum of sixty-five thousand dollars, and this at an exaggerated estimation, was provided for our mini school. We were promised that old Knowles building, which is a disgrace to the city and which has been condemned by the building inspector years ago, would be done away with. Mr. Leland Hume, a member of the Board, severely criticized the violation model for the Negroes and is credited as having said that the city commission did well to come to visit Pearl High School by the shades of night so they could not see the barn that was in the back of the building.
The Negroes did not even oppose the magnificent Warner School recently built in East Nashville, nor the purchase of the park in front of the school, giving them almost a university with a campus in front. I repeat, that the Negroes of Nashville did not only help at the polls in securing new bond issues for educational purposes, but also helped pay for a paign for such schools as Vanderbilt University and Galloway Hospital, which is said to be a part of Vanderbilt, and now that we were put off in a corner, one school taken away from us, and a mere shed shed up that already shows signs of decay, we feel we have been worse than doublecrossed; and now they are asking for a new school for the whites with a red brick structure. Clifton to stop our people from making known these facts. We are demanding as tax payers only what is due us. Look at the present Pearl High School, just ordinary, common red brick structure, not a particle of white stone, not a particle of water table; it looks like a livery stable by the side of the Enotte Grammar School building, the same person who formed Seth avenue, North.

NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY---THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE.
SEC'Y. BAKER'S STATEMENT
ATTITUDE MADE PLAIN—SOLDIERS RECEIVE GOOD TREATMENT—COUNTRY'S HONOR AT STAKE—RELATIONS WORKED OUT.
Special to the Globe.
Washington. D. C., Dec. 5—Some eighty-three thousand, six hundred (6,060) Negroes have been drafted for service in the National Army to be sent overseas.
Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, in working out his plans for the training of these men, has met with many difficulties. First of all, he has had to contend with those friends of the Negro who have felt that it was Secretary Baker's special duty at this time to attempt to solve or settle the so-called Race Question in America. Second, Negro leaders from all parts of the country have impressed the War Department in various and sundry directions, while the peculiar southern situation, where the masses of the Negroes live, has had to be taken into account.
Because of these difficulties, the Secretary of War called to his aid, on October 1st, 1917, a Special Assistant in the War Department, a representative of the Negro race, Emmett J. Scott, who for eighteen years, was Secretary to the late Booker T. Washington, and also Secretary of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial institute, in Alabama. Mr. Scott has a wide acquaintance among members of his own race, and with leading members of the white race in the South, as well as with leaders of the African-American North. He has sought to relieve the Secretary of War, as much as possible, of the burdensome details growing out of controversies, involving racial relationships, caused or occasioned by the presence of white and colored draftees together in many of the cantonments.
Lately, there has been a certain amount of misgiving and unrest among the colored people of the country who have been led to feel, by reason of reports of alleged mistreatment of colored men in cantonments, that there is a disposition on the part of the War Department to deal unfairly with colored draftsmen in National Army cantonments and in National Guard camps. For the purpose of allaying these suspicions and conjectures which have been made and circulated, the Secretary of War has addressed an open letter to his colored Alde, stating his attitude and the policy of the War Department with reference to these colored soldiers. The letter, dated November 30th 1917, follows:
WAR DEPARTMENT.
Washington, Nov. 30, 1911.
Memorandum—For Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant, War Department.
Referring to various telegrams and letters of protest received at the Department, to which you have called my attention, concerning certain alleged discriminations against colored draftees. I wish to say that a full investigation of the matter complained of has been ordered.
As you know, it has been my policy to discourage discrimination against any person by reason of their race. This policy has been adopted not merely as an act of justice to all races that go to make up the American people, but also to safeguard the very institutions which we are now at the greatest sacrifice engaged in defending, and which any racial discontent must endure.
At the same time, there is no intention on the part of the War Department to undertake at this time to settle the so-called Race Question. In this hour of National emergency and need, white and colored men alike are being called to defend Our Country's honor. In the very nature of the case, some must fight in the trenches, while others must serve in other capacities behind the firing line.
I very much regret what seems to be a certain amount of overworked hysteria on the part of some of the complainants who seem to think that draftees are being assigned to duty in Service Battalions, whereas thousands of white draftees already have been, and more of them necessarily will be, assigned to duty in such Service Battalions.
Some of the complainants or charges of discrimination seem all the more unwarranted, in view of the fact that there is far less hazard to the life of the soldier connected with the Service Battalion than is true in case of the soldier who faces shot and shell on the firing line. Furthermore, the attitude of the Var Department toward colored soldiers clearly shows in following facts: more than 626 of the 1250 colored men who completed the course at the Reserve Officer's Training Camp, at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, have been commissioned as officers in the United States Army; nearly 100 colored physicians and surgeons have received commissions as officers in the Medical Reserve Corps, and a full fighting force of 30,000 colored soldiers, including representatives in practically every branch of military service, will constitute the 92nd Division, to-be detalled for duty in France under General Pershing. The relations between colored and colored men in the camps containing both, have been worked out quite satisfactory-basis, and little or no trouble seems likely to arise. All of my reports indicate that

BENEFIT CONCERT FOR TENNESSEE COLORED SOLDIER BOYS IN CAMP.
Mammoth Jubilee Chorus to Give Benefit at Ryman Auditorium, Monday Night, December 17th.
PATRIOTIC CITIZENS OF NASH. TO TURN OUT IN A TESTIMONIAL
From Which the Proceeds Will Go to the Purchase of Bibles to Place in the Hands of the Soldier Boys in the Camp---Nashville
To Do Her Bit, Now and Always.
Every Tennessee boy in any of the camps, whether he be one of the commissioned officers or a private, is to be furnished with a testament and song book, if the jubilee concert that is to be given at the Ryman Auditorium Monday night, December 17th, is a success. The plan has been worked out so that if the citizens of Nashville turn out to hear the concert or purchase tickets, these men in camp and at the front will be favored with these two books. It is understood that the books can be secured and that each will be covered with khaki, with the American flag on the back. Rehearsals for the chorus which is to render the selections on Monday night have already begun. One of Nashville's best singers is counting these rehearsals. On last Tuesday night they met in the Y. M. C. A. Building and devoted one hour to hard practice. "We are going to sing jubilee songs throughout, because we believe these plantation melodies and singles, were very prompt to respond making a contribution towards the securing of the hall. The pastors of all churches, irrespective of denomination, will be asked to make an announcement in their pulpits Sunday and urge upon their congregation to attend this demonstration. It was stated that those who could not come should purchase tickets. It takes 50 cents to send a soldier a Testament and 25 cents to send him a song book. In other words, from the present arrangements it will take three people or three tickets to furnish one drafted man the two desired books. There are approximately thirty thousand Negro citizens in Nashville and if they would readily respond every one of the seven thousand men from Tennessee at the camps could be supplied with these books. The songs selected for this jubilee concert are in themselves regarded as sufficient when rendered on that occasion to arouse great patriotism.
Negro folk songs will give more real inspiration to our boys than will the rag or its gig time music. Our people are naturally musical and they are pining for these books. They also want the Word of God with them. They believe that according to the Scriptures, it will be a lamp to their feet and a light to their pathway, so our singers have decided to sacrifice jointly in this movement to give a testimonial concert, declared a leader in this movement this week. It is the purpose of the concert promoters that every citizen in Nashville shall be given a chance to contribute to this cause. It was understood that already more than five hundred of the leading white citizens of Nashville had indented the movement. Toes are to be on sale at all prominent places. Thousands of placards and bills have been distributed and from all indications this will be the biggest outpouring ever witnessed in Nashville. The authorities of the Ryman Auditorium, when approached on the subject, were very prompt to respond making a contribution towards the securing of the hall. The pastors of all churches, irrespective of denomination, will be asked to make an announcement in their pulpits Sunday and urge upon their congregation to attend this demonstration. It was stated that those who could not come should purchase tickets. It takes 50 cents to send a soldier a Testament and 25 cents to send him a song book. In other words, from the present arrangements it will take three people or three tickets to furnish one drafted man the two desired books. There are approximately thirty thousand Negro citizens in Nashville and if they would readily respond every one of the seven thousand men from Tennessee at the camps could be supplied with these books. The songs selected for this jubilee concert are in themselves regarded as sufficient when rendered on that occasion to arouse great patriotism.
the colored men are accepting this as an opportunity to serve and not an occasion for creating discord or trouble, and white men and officers are passing over the question of race difference in a helpful spirit. What we need in this emergency is the help of right-thinking people in the cities and towns around the camps, and we are getting that co-operation so generally that our course seems free from bias. If German propagandists, who want to stir up sensitive feelings, are simply not allowed to do their work.
As a matter of fact, the colored people and the white people in this country have lived together now for a good many years and have established relationships in the several parts of the country which are more or less well organized and acquiesced in. Gradually the colored people are acquiring education in the industrial arts, and are rendering themselves more and more useful in our civilization and more and more entitled to our resources, the white people are coming generally to realize the value of the good citizens among the colored people through their industrial importance and their eager desire to learn and qualify themselves for usefulness in the country, and this has brought about a growth of good feeling marred, it is true, here and there, by such incidents as that at Houston and that at East St. Louis, which grew out of sad misunderstandings, and were perhaps contributed to, in at least one of these instances, by the army we would relocate to see any people come to us as a sign of weakness against our enemy. Therefore unrest among the colored people and suspicion of the Government on their part are, by all means, to be discouraged at a time like this.
We are bending all our energies to the building up of an army to defeat the enemy of democracy and freedom, and the army we are building contains both white and colored men. We are expecting that they will all do their duty, and when they have done it they will be alike entitled to the attitude of their Country.

MEMPHIS CITIZENS CONGRATULATE THE GLOBE.
Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 4. — Congratulations to the Nashville Globe on its splendid news item and write up on the death of the late Rev. T. J. Searcy have been made in this city by a number of their readers. Among the outspoken ones is Mr. L. C.

THE LATE W.
THE NEGRO IN ANCIENT HISTORY
On Wednesday night, December 19th, the Rev. G. W. Woodley, D. D., will deliver his famous lecture, "The Negro in Ancient History," at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. It is said that this lecture is one of the finest ever given, and that it portrays and shows that the ancestry of the Negro race was one of the teachers not only of the white but of all the other races of the earth. It is learned that the lecture is to come as a part of the twentieth anniversary celebration of Mt. Olive.
At a meeting of the Pearl High School Graduates held in the new school building last Tuesday afternoon a reorganization of the alumni took place. The meeting was called by Prof. F. G. Smith, the principal, and was represented by a large number of the graduates. Dr. Smith delivered an able address, calling upon the graduates to stand by their Alma Mater. After the address talks were made by others in attendance, and it was unanimously decided to reorganize and to go into the election of officers, which resulted in the election of the following:
For President, Mrs. Edwin Smith Johnson, the wife of Dr. A. N. Johnson, Jr., Vice President, Dr. Oliver L. Hambric, Secretary, Miss Fuchsia B. Miller, Corresponding Secretary Miss Eleanor A. Battle. After the election of these officers it was agreed that the next meeting would be held on Tuesday night, December 18th at 7:30 in the auditorium. It was also arranged that all graduates, either of Meigs or Pearl High School would be eligible to membership, as the High School was first conducted at the school. The Corresponding Secretary is to construct to get out notices to all the graduates of the two schools, urging that they join in the movement.

W. T. HIGHTOWER PASSES AWAY
DEACON OF FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH—MASONIC FRATERNITY HOLDS SERVICE AT MIDNIGHT—FUNERAL WEDNESDAY.
All that was mortal of the late Mrs. W. T. Hightower was laid to rest Wednesday afternoon. Funeral services over the remains of one of Nashville's distinguished business men were held at the First Baptist Church, Eighth Avenue, North. A large number of sorrowing friends and acquaintances were present at the church and a beautiful creation was delivered by the pastor, Rev. S. McDowell, the following program being rendered: First song by the choir, after which prayer and order by Rev. R. O'Brien. The obituary read by the pastor, then telegrams were read and resolutions were offered from the East Star Lodge No. 20, A. F. and A. M. Order of Eastern Star, Grand Lodge of Masons and from every department of the church and Sunday school and Roger Williams. Then Roger Williams' double quartette sang beautifully, "Swing Low Sweet Charity." The following ministers were on the rostrum and participation Hines, H. L. P. Hines, J. R. Evans and Preston Taylor. The Order of Eastern Star had ceremony, after which a beautiful solo was sung by Mrs. H. A. Cameron.
The Masonic fraternity, of which The Mightower was one of the highest degree members, held services at midnight at church in his memory. Mr. Hightower was well known in Nashville where he had lived for a number of years, and was identified with many fraternal organizations, as well as a Mason he was considered one of the leaders having been for more than ten years active in the administration of the affairs. He died at his home Monday morning after a lingering illness of little more than a month, and while the end had been expected for two or three days, it had been thought that with the aid of skilled physicians he would have recovered. He was asked out that he was seriously ill. On last Sunday night his close friends gave up hope, and all members of the family were at once notified.
Mr. Hightower leaves a wife, a
married a daughter with a host of
friends.

NUMBER 6
ASPIRES TO SECRETARYSHIP OF EXTENSION BOARD—LOYAL FROM PEW TO PULPIT—PROMINENT AND POPULAR.
There has come from authentic source, information that the Rev. H. L. P. Jones, D. D., of this city will soon announce his candidacy as secretary of the Church Extension Board of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. When approached on this subject Dr. Jones said, "While I am not quite ready to make my announcement, I feel that unless there are not some radical changes in my mind, I will enter the race. I am well known in my church, and while I make no bonst, I have served only as an humble preacher of the gospel. While I have filled many stations in the church, I am still willing to serve, and if the connection wants me, I shall answer their call as I have always done."
It was learned that Dr. Jones was one of the live wires at the last session of the Philadelphia Conference, to which he was elected and where he went with the Tennessee delegation. As soon as he arrived at the con-
REV. H. L. P. JONES, D. D,
Pastor St. Paul A. M. E. Church,
Nashville, Tenn.
ference he was elected as one of the secretaries. The citizens of Nashville have watched the career of Dr. Jones, and especially the excellent work that he has been able to do at St. Paul where he is now serving in his third year. This is regarded as one of the Metropolitan churches in the Tennessee conference. In addition to this, it is regarded as one of the leaders of the pastor. Dr. Jones was born in Giles County. He is a product of Turner College at Shelbyville, having finished from there some years ago. He taught school in the counties of Lincoln, Trousdale, Giles and Cheatham until he became well known in educational circles. He was licensed as a preacher in the A. M. E. Church in 1893 by the Rev. G. L. Jackson, D. D., the present Presiding Elder of the South Nashville District. He then entered the parish he served different and various churches for twelve consecutive years, until 1909 when he was elected as Presiding Elder, serving six years as such on the Shelbyville and Columbia Districts, where he is held in the highest esteem and where he has a host of followers. Then in 1907 he was honored by being elected as a delegate to the General Conference which met at Norfolk, Va. Soon after returning from being elected as a delegate he began the work of building a church at East Nashville. Payne A. M. E. Church on the Easle is but one of the demonstrations of big constructive ability.
Later on in 1916 he was once more honored by being elected as a delegate to the General Conference which met at Philadelphia, Pa., and was further honored by the Conference as one of its secretaries. When he was assigned to the St. Paul A. M. E. Church, it was thought that perhaps he had reached the apex of his constructiveness, but from what can be observed, he has brought the church out until it is enjoying its greatest era of prosperity both for itself as well as for special point of view. He is regarded by Nashville one of its able preachers and is identified with everything that tends to the development of the citizens of the state, and it is already predicted that if he persists in his candidacy he will be elected to the position as secretary of the Church Extension Board.
MRS. PERKINS DEAD.
Mrs. F. G. Woodfolk of 5090 Ten nessean Avenue, was called to one beside of her auntie, Mrs. Minerva Perkins of 1027 N. Walnut street, Heilena, Ark. Mrs. Perkins' home was destroyed by fire and she was seriously burned, dying from her injuries.
Mrs. Perkins was loved by all who knew her, for her sweet disposition. She leaves a husband and one one niece and a host of friends to mourn her less.
Our loss is heaven's gain.
Was Troubled With Hs Threat and Lungs
NO LONGER BOTHERED
Has Taken Lung-Vita Only Two Weeks.
"I got a bottle of Lung-Vita two weeks ago and since that time I have been taking it as per directions, and I find that it is perfectly satisfactory," says Mr. James H. Hughes, who lives at 27 Rossville avenue, Chattanooga, Tenn., in his statement dated October 18, 1917. "I was bothered with my throat and lungs being stopped up, but since taking Lung-Vita my lungs and throat bother me no longer. I am going to continue taking it untreated and I am perfectly aware my throat and lungs trouble, which I sure won't be long. I highly recommend Lung-Vita to any one who has lung or trouble throat."
Lung-Vita is sold by durgists and dealers

Crowded houses are hearing the discourses delivered by the Rev. Pearson at the public school building. Whatever may be the individual opinion on the doctrine of sanctification, the arguments made by the Rev. are hard to answer. He has set a lot of people to thinking. Rev. Smith the new pastor of Woodfork chapel preached his initial sermon last Sunday. He captivated his audience with his logic and eloquence. His broad experience during a very eerie night, creating a very eerie element, Miss Ellen Mitchells' entertainment at the public school was a success. The sum of $17.53 was realized. Most of the county schools were out last Friday, and the teachers came to town to draw their pay. They will now prepare for the examination.

Reduces Beer Alcoholic Content to
three per cent—Allows Grain for
Breying,
Washington, D.C, Dec. 4—The
Food Administration Department of
the National Government has. taken
a big step forward this week looking
to the promotion of temperance dur-
ing the war, Tt has been recommend:
ed, and the President has approved,
that the aleoholic conteit of beer
should be reducod in the first instance
to 3 per cent maximum and that the
volume of grain to be used in brew:
ing shall be reduced to an amount ap
proximately 70 per cent of the amount
of grain formerly used, enabling the
‘brewing of the same volume of beer.
Further provisions are being made to
increase the maximum output of
‘eattle feed from brewing establish
ments,
Use of Foodstuffs Forbidden,
| The food law provides for the pro-
hibition of the use of foodstuffs in
‘the production of distilled whisky
spirits for beverage purposes and the
use of foodstuffs for the production
of distilled drinks was stopped on
September 8, There fs, however, in the
country from two to three year's sup-
ply of whisly, brandy, and gin and
other distilled’ liquors.’ The law pro:
vides that these liquors can be com:
mandeered by the Government. it re-
quired for purposes of manufacture
of alcohol for munitions.
On tho other hand, the requirements
for industrial alcohol in addition to
‘the normal output from sawdust and
other waste products is at present
negligible.
‘Those who wish brewing entirely
suppressed, it is stated by tho Food
Administration, should therefore bear
‘in mind that if such a course were
pursued the country would be placed
‘on a whisky basis entirely and, the
amount of alcohol consumed would
‘most probably inerease,
The desirability of saving all. the
grain used in brewing from the point
‘of view of food conservation is there-
fore limited by the social question in-
volved in the exclusive use of whisky.
This is a big step forward, and pro-
bably assures the permanent elimina-
tion of whisky as a beverage, and
serves to place the country upon a
new basis, the basis of sobriety and
eens of true temperance,

ANXIETY.
“When we consider the ordinary
lives of unmarried man, we must
xive them our pity, for they have
leprived themselves of anxiety." ‘Thus
runs a quotation from an artlete by
W. L, George in Harper's Magazine.
It is a strange sayins. It challenges
our attention. No oue who had not
wufered anxiety could or would have
written It
Superficistly considered, the affirma-
on (hat the man who has deprived
Aimself of anxiety 1s entitled to our
pity provokes a quite smtle of spepti-
cism, as if anxtety could be a thing
fo be desire, or invited, But is it
not true? We are for the most part
Gisposed to be envious of the indivi-
dual who is able to avoid anxiety
Upon whom time and circumstances
have smiles, whose way through life
is undisturbed by care, But, examin.
ing the matter from another angle,
We are able to discern that be who
knows not anxiety has missed one of
tho great expertences of life. The in-
Gividual, whether man or woman, ¥-ho
Pas not experienced anxiety has not
fully lived. No one can attain full
stalure without that experience,
Anxiety Is one of the means by
which character is formed. Anxiety
involves a certain measure of suifer-
ing, and through suifering we are
strengthened. In the crucible of suf:
fering the spirit is refined, as jreci
‘ous metals are separated from dross
in the smolter's furnace, Anxiety is
mental and spiritual —diseiptine
Ansiety bogets a whole train of vir
tues among which are courage
patience, unselfishness, sympathy,
thoughtfulness and Kindness, which is
another word for love. Anxiety stimu:
te selforgetfulness snl humility.
Anxiety distitls the rebellious emo.
tons, and the product is undiluted
fection, as pure as ile snowtlake
freshly fallen from the heavens,
Anxiety broadens the sympathy and
{he understanding of man, and all who
tire called upon at one time or another
ufler ft are united by a common
ond of fellowship.
Anxlety Invades all ranks of Mf,
levels all ranks. Like death, ft ts no
rospecter of persons. It 1s present in|
the humble homes of the poor and in|
the habitations of the wealthy, Money’
is powerless to bar the door against |
it, Indeed, the wealthy and the great|
more frequently are called upon to
vufer anxiety than the poor and the
obscure. In its presence riches be.
ome futile and as nothing. Some of
the things of life, we discover, are)
not purchasable with money.
But anxiety is not to be confused
with worry, Anxiety ennoblos,|
strengthens, Worry invites despalr;
it is a disease which ‘ills, Anxiety
Ss proper, but worry i) worse than
futile, Anxiety perhaps should not
be Invited deliberately, but worry
should be shunnel os pestilence is
avoided. ‘The Great ‘Ivacher com:
mands us not to worry, cautioning us
to avold anxious thousht about such
things as meat and raiment, to take
no thought for the morrow, for
“which of you by taking thought can
add one cubit to his stature?” And
then he adds: “But seek ye first the
Kingdom of God and his righteous:
ness, and all those things shall be
added unto you." |
It fs not possible for many of us to
deprive ourselves of auxiety in this
life, Few of us are without it in some
form. Nearly everyone is anxious’
about his business affairs, or his work
‘or his loved ones, or something else
which is close to his heart, No good
work 19 done in the world without
certain measure of anxiety. No
reat, deep love ts free of anxious
‘thought:
‘The battle of life calls for courage
and resolution of a high order. The
man who avoids anxiety because he
does not with the placid course of ex-
fstence to be disturbed thereby is
lacking both in courage and in reso-
tution, The man who shrinks from
‘he cares of the married relation that
he may avold its inevitable anxieties
Ja at least selfish, tf he ts not to be
Charged with cowardice, For it fs
wwe that the cares and anxieties of
edded Ife call for the hishest
courage, often approaching heroism,
Wherefore it fs, a8 Mr, George says,
hat “When we consider the oriinary
ves of unmarried men, we must give
them our pity, for they have depriv-
nl themselves of anxiety.”
‘We unhesitatingly congratulate the
Nashville Banner upon its acquisition
of @ real live wire as its Negro news-
gatherer, The Sunday Negro news
is fresh, enjoyable giving one unalloy-
ed pleasure in its perusal. The
absence of staleness is happily obvious,
everything is fresh and right up-to-the-

MRS. WILLIAM BRYCE BROWN-BLACK.
Of Nashville.

Due to the illness of the officiating minister, the ceremony was said at the home of Bishop and Mrs. Evans Tyre, Bishop Tyre being the officiant.
Promptly at 8 p. m., to the strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March, played by Miss E. Leon Saunders, the bride descended the stairway leaning on the arm of her future husband.
She was a picture of girlish loveliness in her wedding gown, which was fashioned of heavy white crepe de Chine, with iridescent pearl, trimmings. The accordion-plaited skirt was further enhanced by beautiful side draperies of white silk lace. She carried an exquisite shower bouquet of White Killarney Roses, Lilies of the Valley and Ferns, from which tulle streamers gracefully hung. Her wedding veil was crowned with a Juliet cap encircled with a wreath of orange blossoms.
The groom was costumed in conventional black broadcloth. After the ceremony, the chapel couple received congratation flowers from the guests present, who included only the relatives and special friends of the participants, respectively after the reception.

NASHVILLE SOCIETY HEARS
ANITA PATTIE BROWN.
A large and representative audience of
Nashville's Society and College element heard Madame Anita Pattie Brown in song recital on Monday night in Mehary Medical College's Shaacies auditorium.
The program which was one of unusual merit was begun promptly at eight o'clock and for two hours those present were held spell bound by the beauty and masterful technique of this queen of song. The opening number was played by Meharry Orchestra a noted organization of performers. A member of the orchestra then favored the audience with a trombone solo which was delightfully received. Prof. Allen of the State Normal gave a humorous reading and was compelled to respond to an encore. Madame Brown's first number was from Faust and the very first silvery tone that floated on the air convinced the audience that they were in the presence of a master of the art of singing.
The program was interspersed with creditable numbers from local talent. During the intermission souvenirs were sold throughout the audience in the form of hearts with Madame Brown's Photo and a short sketch of her life.
The Anita Pattie Brown Recital was under the auspices of the Hubbard Hospital Club, with Mrs. P. R. Burrus as Chairman. The people of Nashville are enthusiastic music lovers and were delighted to pay homage to this genius who has taken a natural gift and developed it to the very highest point possible. Mrs Burrus deserves much credit for the success of the evening.

DR. WILLIAM BYCE BLACK
Nashville, Tenn.
amid the good wishes of their friends Dr. and Mrs. Black left for 1298 First Avenue, South, where they will be domiciled until leaving for their future home in Little Rock, Ark. Mrs. Black is the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Brown and during her short young ladhood has made an enviable record in Nashville educational circles. Less than a month after graduating from Pearl High School with Valedictory honors, she was elected teacher in the Nashville Public schools, in which profession she acquired herself credibly up to the time of her marriage.
Dr. Black comes from a widely known and highly respected family of Newport, Ark. His father, P. W. Black, is a very prosperous farmer, general merchant and ginner of that place. Besides graduating from Mehary Medical College, Class 1917, with high honors, he is also a graduate from the A. B. course of Philander-Smith College, Little Rock, Ark. He is a young man of exceptional ability and sterling qualities. At present he is in intern and chief assistant to Dr. J. A. McMillan, the popular surgeon. It is with regret that their many friends learn they will make their home in a distant city immediately upon completion of Dr. Black's intern work at Cottage Hospital.
Remember our soldier boys the 17th. They must fight for us. Go to Ryman and hear the singers.

STATE NORMAL WINS TWO GAMES
In their first inter-scholastic basket ball contest the girls and boys basket ball teams of the A. and I. State Normal won a double victory last Friday on Normal campus over the Attucks High School quintet of Hopkinsville, Ky. The games were attended by a largee an denthuslastic crowd of rooters from the schools and city. The first game was played between the teams representing the girls and was an easy victory for Normal by the score of 22—6. At no time during the contes was the result in doubt, for at the first few minutes of playing the speed and accurate shooting of the players and their opponents. The features of the game were the playing of Misses Gates Phelps and Smith of Normal, the former especially displaying great skill in shacking hotties. For Kentucky Miss foster was easily the star. The score at the end of the first half was Tennessee 16, eKentucky 3. The second half was more closely contested, the Kentucky girls playing a better defensive game but were weak in offensive. The final score was Tennessee 22, Kentucky 6.

The second game was one of the best games of basket ball ever witnessed in this city. The Normal boys were the first to score and their lead was never overcome. The team displayed excellent team work. No one man seeming to excel individually. The guarding of Robinson and Cabel, the basket shooting and passing of Hawkins, Catter and Worthington all deserve special mention. Boyd and Irving, of Attucks High, each played an excellent game and but for the work of the Tennessee different. The result was never in doubt after the first few minutes. The score of the first half was Tennessee 14, eKutucky 6. The second half was more closely contested, the Kentucky boys taking on new courage trie din vain to overcome the early lead of their opponents. Final score Tennessee 23, Kentucky 13. The Normal teams expect to take a trip to Kentucky after the holidays.

He discussed the great "World war" and the part which the men of color, should take in making the world "safe for democracy." The speaker was at his best, and at times, wafhed a way on the wings of oratory. He swept the vast audience of their feet with his choristerical snoppy and

HAMPTON DOWNS "THE MIGHTY HOWARD."
Howard Unable to Stand Strain of the Seasider's Machine.
By Irvin S. Curry.
Special to Globe Sporting page:
Hampton Field, Nov. 29.
The Howard "Bulldogs" of Howard University met their waterloo today to the tune of 37—0 at the hands of the great Hampton machine.
Many papers had doubted Hampton's strength toward Howard, but this became a walkaway for the Hampton-lons.
The game was witnessed by fully 13000 people from all sections of the peninsula and a part of the game was played in a drizzling rain.
Hampton completely out played the wisters at all points, and only one did the visitors manage the "Seasider's" goal. In less than six minutes after Howard had kicked to Hampton Rigney carried the ball over for a touchdown.
Coleman of Howard, made a "Fritz Pollard" run of 50 yards and was cut down by "Jelly," here the visitors fought madly, but the Hamptonions repulsed them "Seventy Five M. M." Woods shot through Howard's line like 25 centimeter gun, and at his rate of the speed of the Howardites thought he was Douglass Haig.
Capt. Harvey, Hampton's quarter, was the hero of the day, dodging, ducking, side-tracking, squirming and dashing down the field like a superior of Pollard.
Oliphant of the Army with all his fame as a fullback, has nothing on "Rastus" Rigney, the plunging full-back.
"Capid" Black, of Yale would have to shift some to beat "Preecher" Sommerville, the big 218 lb. guard of Hampton.
Paxton Brooks and Claybure, did effective work for Hampton as did Owl, the second Casey.
Capt. Young, of Howard deserves a great deal of praise, he is truly a leader of men entering the last half, Capt. Young gathered his men and said, "Men we are going in to fight, we will forget the score, we are as good as they if not better." The Howard line strengthened then, and threatened the Hampton "Iron Line." As Hampton and Howard have been rivals for many years, and have the same colors it was hard for the spectators to tell who was "Miles" Wright and "Jake" Scott were the cheer leaders and kept up plenty noise in line up: Paxton . . . L. E. . . Green Curry . . . L. T. . . Waters Sommerville . . . L. G. . . Baylor Spaulding . . . C. . . Young, Capul Clayborne . . . R. G. . . Camper Mitchell . . . R. T. . . Matthews Brooks . . . R.

ROBERSON TAKES A PLACE WITH
ELECT OF FOOTBALL.
All Around Ability of Rutgers End
Puts Him With Greatest and Best
of the Game.
By George Daley.
Paul Roberson, the big Negro end of the Rutgers eleven, is a football genius. Two or three weeks ago George Foster Sanford, speaking with the conviction born of long experience in the game, said: "Roberson is the best all-around player on the gridiron this season." After seeing his play at Ebbets Field against Capid Black's Naval Reserve team the disposition is strong to go Sanford one better and say that Roberson must be ranked with such men as Tack Hardwick of Harvard. Eddie Mahan of Harvard. Charley Barrett of Cornell. Jim Thrope of the Carlisle Indians, Elmer Oliphant of West Point and Ted Coy of Yale for all around ability in football. It is seldom indoe dthat a linesman can develop such versatility. Roberson does about everything except carry the ball, and everything he does may be paranoid did it not. Roberson did not go a step further and out of the many duties assigned to Roberson and add one more, which would give him the ball for a running play.
It is quite possible that such a play is or was included in this wide reportoire, but that the nee dof it did not arise on Saturday. In any case, here are some of the duties imposed on this superman of the game:
Opening holes for his backs on line plays; proving remarkable interference for his backs on end runs; going down the field under punts; taking forward passes, in which, by the way, he handles the pigskin with almost the same sureness as a baseball; supporting the centre of the line on defense, or as some have it playing "defensive quarterback," plugging up holes from one end of the line to the other; tackling here, there and everywhere; kicking off and diagnosing.
And the greatest perhaps of his accomplishments is accurate diagnosing. His ability to size up plays and quickly get to the point of danger is almost uncanny. He is so rarely at fault that he is at the centre practically of every play, and therein lies his greatest value, and therein is the truest measure of his all around ability. —N. Y. World.
