Burleson, Postmaster Gen. VOLUME XIII. NEGRO AND AMERICANISM HAMPTON FOLKS HEAR ELOQUENT ADDRESS-WILLIAM EVERETT CLARK STIRS SCHOOL CAPTAIN HADLEY SPEAKS. Hampton, Va., Jan. 7.—(Special to the Globe.)—James Weldon Johnson, Doctor of Letters and well known contributing editor of the New York Age, was the principal speaker at the celebration of the fifty-fifth anniversary of President Lincoln's proclamation which was recently held at Hampton Institute and which was attended by an audience of more than 1,500 people, including some 400 members of the Third Battalion of the 372d Infantry Regiment. A summary of Dr. Johnson's address follows. No Panacea in Sight. Hampton is historic and halloween ground. It is the inspiration or two of the greatest white friends that the colored people have ever had—General Armstrong and Dr. Frissell. This spot has nourished and given the colored greatest leaders that the Negro race has had—Jr. Booker T. Washington and Dr. Robert I. Motona. The colored man today has his own problems. For fifty years he has been trying to find a solution for these problems. He has searched for a panacea. Some have urged the colored man to get education; some have urged him to get money; and some have urged him to get political power. He is, however, no such thing as a panacea. Men must possess all the common powers that make a people great. Gains for Colored Peoples When men get behind the present international jeaousies they find that the unwitting cause of the present world-wide conflict is the presence of the colored people of the world. At bottom this great war is a contest of the powers to dominate the colored peoples of the world. Since colored people have unwittingly been the cause of this suspicious struggle it is they who will determine the greatest results, the struggle. The direct result of this conflict will be the defeat of the Teotium peoples. The indirect result will be great gains for the colored peoples of the world. Democracy Is Coming. The world is being made over. Old laws, customs, conventions, and even religions are being broken down in the crucible of war. Something vastly better is coming out of the present struggle. This new thing, called democracy, is coming to all the people of the world, especially to colored people of the United States. Despite anything that has been unjustly done to Negroes, this country is theirs, and they have faith in American democracy. The spirit of those who landed at Jamestown and at Plymouth Rock will prevail. That spirit, though thwarted, delayed, and even defeated, will never be destroyed. It will in time make all things so united in States. Some are doubtful of tangible evidence that democracy is coming to colored people. The exodus of colored people out of Egypt is a direct result of the Great War, the first effect of which was to take out of industry many in the Northern and Border states who were called to the colors of their native countries. The colored people of the South have been filling this vacuum in industry. They have been obeying a great economic law, and their migration there is the hand of God. For generations the American Negro has had the twofold choice of locality in living. He could live in the far South, where his economic position, after a fashion, was secure, and where his rights were denied; or he could move to the North where his rights were secure and his economic position was insecure. Now he is the place his feet on turn economic foundations and enjoy certain rights. From New York to California there will be, in time, two million Negro votes that will be counted. Certain things will not come to the Negro until he has, and can use, the ballot. The recent migration among colored people of masses moving leaderless to the North and to future destiny is one of the greatest things in the Negro's history since the enactment of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Faith Brings Victory. This land belongs to the colored people by right of birth and by right of toil. They have paid the price of their heritage in loyalty and in blood. They will gain for themselves the precious things for which the price was paid. Although they will have many discouragements, they must not lose faith in themselves, or in their race, or in their country. When things grow blackest, they must have courage and faith in God, for the hand of God is present even in this world wide situation. The drops of blood shed by Lincoln have not been shed in vain. The tears, prayers and efforts which have gone up to God will not be forgotten. In time they will all be answered. Dr. George P. Phenx, vice principal of Hamilton, referred to the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation as one of the important days NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY—THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. NATIONAL BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL AND TRAINING SCHOOL The Woman's Missionary Baptist City Union has adopted plans whereby they may best help foster this great institution. One of the plans they decided to take up first is to have linen showers each quarterly meeting. These donations can be made collectively or individually. Our first shower, January 4th exceeded our expectations as only a few of the auxiliaries had notified of the plan. We are now sending out an appeal to all Unincorporated Baptist women and our friends to assist us in this our worthy effort. Could you have heard as your correspondent did how graphically Rev. Prince Condélee of Africa related the story of a young man plied in Aries, and his earnest desire to return home and tell his mother of Jesus. Tell his mother and his people that there is a true God. You would have resolved then and there, that no sacrifice of time, talent or money would be too great for an institution that is preparing our young ministers, that they may be capable of carrying the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ all over the country even to darth Africa. An institution with a community service that they may rescue our girls and boys from the slums. We as Missionaries should and do realize if there ever was a time when the gospel should be carried throughout the world, now is that time, and it must be done by our young men of today. And as they must be fully equipped for this great work, we can readily see what an important part the Training Seminary will play towards accomplishing this desired end. Having come now to the age of woman, where we are made comrades and co-workers with our brothers, having liberties extended us that our sisters of the past never dreamed of, let not words but deeds prove that we can and will qualify. Let us as Missionary women come together as one and to it that when the National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary, three days for them, that we will not have failed in doing our bit, not only in linen showers but financial showers also. We have played quite an important part in equipping one of Nashville's great institutions and now stand ready to serve notice on the world that we are in the ranches to stay until the last penny of indetenedness on this grand edifice has been paid. Our slogan for 1918, "The National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary," Mrs. A. V. Marshall, Cor. Sce. In the history of our country. Dr. Phenix declared that the men from Massachusetts, Connecticut and Tennessee were indebted to this celebration—sons of these freed by Lincoln—are indebted among the soil diers of the Republic who will help win freedom for all the world. Short addresses were made by Capt. J. Holman Prior, commanding the Third Battalion; Licat. George F. Seanau, acting adjutant; and Capt C. O. Hadley, of the Tennessee company. The Negro and Americanism William Everett Clark, of Roanoke, Va., who is a member of the Hampton Institute graduating class, speaking recently on "The Negro and Americanism," before a great audience attended at Hampton Institute to celebrate Lincoln's famous Emancipation Proclamation, said: "The claim of Negroes to Americanism dates back to the landing of the first slaves at Jamestown. From that day in 1619 the Negro has been an important factor in the development of the United States, which held in shackles, he was gradually educating the ideals of the liberty-loving white settlers. "When the American colonists were being lorded over by a trivial mother country, a Negro lighted the fiery flame of liberty. After the Revolution, the people of Boston erected to the memory of that brave Negro and his companions a monument. On if you may read these words: "Long as in Freedom's cause the wise contend. Dear to our country shall your fame extend; While to the world the lettered stone shall tell Where Caldwell, Attucks, Gray and Meverick fell.' "It is said that one out of every ten men with Perry on the Great Lakes was a colored man. The assis- tance that the slaves gave General Jackson in New Orleans prevented the British from capturing that city "Thirty years later the Negro soldier faced the Spanish guns and again proved to the world his courage and his willingness to lay down his life for his country. "When we entered this Great War, the loyalty of the Negro was questioned by some, although in previous wars the Negro had fought gallantly for a freedom which was not his when won. "The United States Government, however, indicated its faith in these dusky-skinned Americans. After passing the Selective Draft Law, it established a training camp for Negro officers. In four months the Negro had so well shown his capacity for leadership that Uncle Sam accepted six hundred Negro commissioned officers. "From the eighty-odd thousand Negroes in camps, the Government is contemplating the formation of several divisions of colored troops. An engineer corps is being formed by men who are skilled mechanics. Negro soldiers are going forth to promote the cause of this freedom and the freedom of the world. When thousands of them have laid down their lives for the peace and happiness of posterity, no one can dismute the Negro's claim to Americanism." NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1918.

What was Separate Company G, Tennessee Infantry is now Company K, 372nd Infantry Regiment at Camp Stuart, Newport News, Va. This regiment is made up of a battalion (4 companies) from Ohio; a battalion from District of Columbia constituting the first and second battalions and the third battalion is composed of a company from Massachusetts, one from Connecticut, one from Maryland and former "G" Company from Tennessee. The company is to be recruited to the strength of 250 men which will cause an additional strength of 140 men.

Nat'l Guard, Commanding. FAMOUS CO. G. GUESTS OF HAMP TON INSTITUTE. Famous Company from the City of Opportunity Now in 3rd Battalion, 3rd Regiment - Capt. C. O. Haddley Thirius Audience With These Words: "If any of my men fall, you may be sure they will receive every bullet in the breast." Hampton, Jan. 7.—(Special to the Globe.) The fifty-fifth anniversary of president Lincoln's emancipation proclamation exercises were held at Champion Institute. Dean Fenns made the opening remarks. Plantation melodies were rendered by the student body and choir. The orator of the day, Hon. James Weldon Johnson, contributing editor of the New York Age, made the address. The Third battalion composed of Co. G. Tennessee, 8th Massachusetts and 3rd Connecticut were present. Capt. Homer Bryer, commanding officer, gave an encouraging remarks concerning the Negroes' attitude. Capt. C. O. Haddley was the next speaker of the hardships of Company G and how Governor Rye said it was the best in the state. Capt. Haddley remained silent for a moment and then with hans in his side standing like an immortal warrior said, "We have fought from the dry fields of Lexington to the gutted plains of Carrizal, and we will fight from Carrizal to victory and return to our claims. I will assure you that if any of my men fall in our attempt to drive the feuded man, you may be assured that he will receive every bullet in the breast." The Hampton chorus sang for the audience and soldier boys "Over There." After the exercises coffee and sandwiches were served to the men and the Nashville boys yelled for Tennessee, be led by Irvin S. Curry, of Hampton. There were many men who hailed from Pearl High in the ranks, and the leader led them. In three long rails and seven short rails for the "Cherry and White" of Pearl High. The last yell was— After the yells every lover of the "Cherry and White", though it has treated the dust on many gridrons, promised to be true to the Stars and Stripes and keep the Pearl spirit with them in battle or peace. After this the leader led a song—"Oh, Pearl High. We Love You!" and here the bugle sounded and every loyal "Cherry and White" admirer fell into ranks with the excellent calm and lamb-like spirit of Dr. F. G. Smith. The boys are stationed at Camp Stuart, Newport News, Va., and hiked over to Hampton, seven miles away. THE Y. M. C. A. TAKING LEAVE OF YOUNG MEN-MANY IN WAITING LIST. For the past three months between three and four hundred young men have been housed by the Association for the most part comfortably. For the past two months, more than 1,600 meals have been served in the Cafeteria. This volume of business done by the Association in so short a time justifies many, many times the merits made by the people whose hands have made the Association possible. If there is any doubt as to the need of just such work as the Association is doing under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. one has to have to but to consult the financial records of the rooming apartments for the past three months. The economic value alone of this department of the Association to the young men in the community is passing away now simply justify the work which the community is doing in maintaining the Association. The comforts and con enjences provided for the fel APPEALS TO NE- GROES TO SHOW RACE PATROITISM Tells How They Came to Teddy's Aid Judge William Harrison of Oklahoma City Is Wildly Applauded Heralded by his race as a second Booker Washington and regarded by many as a more magnetic orator than W. T. Vernon, Judge William Harrison, of Oklahoma City, addressed a house crowded with applauding Negroes at the Francis Street Baptist church last night. He came here under the auspices of the Booker Washington chapter of the Red Cross and his subject was "Patriotism." "There can be no world peace without a world democracy," he said. "And that democracy must include all humanity. I want to help my race do its bit in bringing about this end. I want to be counted and I want my race to be counted in the work of the world. If you don't insist on being counted, nobody counts you. The world will take you at your own price—and it has a right to do so. Put a 100 per cent value on yourselves! In this great world crisis, I want the members of my race to prove themselves worthy of American citizenship." Harrison spoke of Negro patriots from the time of the Boston massacre through all the country's wars. When he told Nero soldiers had saved Roosevelt Rough Riders from annihilation at San Juan hill the audience went wild. And they cheered again when the speaker said: "I know you are asking if I insist that we bare our breasts to the foreign foe, in the face of all our wrongs. My answer is 'Yes.' This is as much my country and my flag as President Wilson's.' Judge Harrison is a real judge, having once been appointed by a white candidate a special judge to hear a case involving many thousand dollars. He is head of the colored auxiliary of the Red Cross for Oklahoma, and the only Negro member of the Oklahoma council of defense and the Oklahoma City legal advisory board. Lass night he was introduced by L. F. Ramsey, a former pupil and college mate. Mrs. J. J. O. Uliver, vice chairman of the Booker Washington Red Cross chapter, presided. She says more than 300 Negroes in St. Joseph's School had Red Cross and that constant efforts will be made to increase the membership. -St. Joseph, Mo., Gazette lows are only normal that necessary, and the cost is also necessary. The amount paid by the members of the Association by more than an average of five dollars per day. In other words, the cost of fuel, electric lights, water, humidity, men soap and upkeep of the rooms and building in general excess the amount paid by those who enjoy the process by less about one fourth of the cost of upkeep of the rooms and about three are provided by the members, membership fee and room rent. The cost bill alone for the month of December amounted to almost ten dollars per day, but ten dollars a day spent in heating forty rooms is not a bad investment. Most homes would be mighty glad to get out with thirty cents per day for heating a living room. These are some facts which will no doubt be of interest; to business men who are maxims about the success of the long graveled road in Nashville, benefits along other equal interest to friends of young men will be enumerated from time to time. occasionally a fellow is heard to say as one passes through the halls, "see, the Y has some cosy rooms." At present there are sixy, young men stopping in the building who are almost unanimous in agreeing that while conditions are not ideal, more comforts and greater convenience are being offered to the heart of the city of Nashville could reasonably be expected. Almost all rooms available are about taken for the present. It is stated, however, that young men wanting rooms can be put on the waiting list and will be given first consideration when space now occupied is made vacant. DEATH OF REV. JOHN MOORE. In the death of Rev. John Moore of Hopkinsonville the denomination loses a very devoted Christian gentleman and the race an exemplary business genius. Rev. Mr. Moore was of the ance-bellium type, with many years teaming upon him. It was learned he came to his death by being run down by an automobile. A telegram sent to Rev. Dr. Clark of this city did not give any particulars but merely spoke of his death and the date of his funeral, which would be Wednesday morning. Rev. Mr. Moore was blessed with a large portion of this world's goods. According to reports, he owned a large farm and a third of a business block in the heart of the city of Hopkinsonville. He was a great business man, with several churches out of his own earnings, pastoring them a short while and leaving them to call whom they chose. He was pastoring a church at Hopkinsonville which he built and had nursed because of its inability to care for a pastor. WOMEN'S AUXILIARY. The Women's Auxiliary of St. Eileen W. P. Baptist Church met in the home of the president, Mother Mary E. Black. The house was called to order by the president. Song and prayer by the chaplain. The minutes were read by Sister Vera Campbell Roll call of officers and roll call of members by Sister Fannie Rucker. Miss Sylvia E. Henderson was chosen as corresponding secretary. Election of officers was postponed until the third Monday. A two course menu was served. The hostess, Mary E. Black, was assisted in serving by her daughter, Mary Bateman EMANCIPATION AT MOBILE, ALA. BIG PARADE-FOUR THOUSAND IN LINE-EXERCISES IN LEADING THEATRE-EMMETT J SCOTT ORATOR OF DAY. Mobile, Ala., Jan. 4.—The colored people of Mobile, Alabama, under the auspices of the Mobile Emancipation Association, Dr. E. T. Belsaw, Chairman, and including such important colored business and professional men as Clarence W. Allen, undertaker; James T. Peterson, Dr. C. First Johnson, Charles W. Peters and others had charges of the exercises. The parade, beginning at two d'clock in the afternoon, led by the officers of the Emancipation Association, paraded the main streets of the city. Four brass bands from Moss Point, Miss.; Pensacola, Fl.; New Orleans, La.; and Mobile, Ala., furnished music for the parade. A careful estimate was made to the effect that 4,000 men were in line, including every secret society, every benevolent association, and the various industrial organizations of one kind and another. The parade finally wound up at the Lyric Theatre which was placed at the disposal of the committee for the first time in the parade. The mobile, the mobile after it was addressed the principal address of the occasion would be delivered by Hon. Emmet J. Scott, Secretary of the Tuskegee Institute but now serving in the War Department at Washington as Special Assistant to Secretary of War Baker. Mr. Scott never spoke to better effect, and after paying a compliment to the high class of Negro citizenship of Mobile, told of the spirit of friend and good will in which the two races in Mobile live, saying, in part: "The coloree people and the white people of Mobile are proving that they are different in color, with his histories and traitions also wholly different in spirit of an unity and good will, in peace and harmony, each conributing in his own way toward the prosperity not only of this great city but of this great state as well. It is an honor to be invited to speak here at any time, but particularly so at a time like this, when the world is a time, as it were; when civilization itself is unimproving its greatest test and democracy is being tried out in the furnace of fire. To be thought worthy of ordering words of counsel at a time like this is hard enough for as individual. "Great social, economic and political changes are being wrought, and in every part of this country fires of patriotism are burning in the hearts of men and women, as they have never burned before. We are seeking through the President of the United States, and through the great armies of the world, at a time of great new ways possible to preserve the ideals of the founders of this republic; and who are those in all the world better entitled to help fight the battles of freedom than we, the colored people, who have come through the very fires of adversity and have struggled up to the noontime of a new day? "But we are not here to rehearse the trials of the long period of slavery, nor the dark days of reconstruction during which period injustice alike was done to white and black men of the men of the half century ago. We are facing a new day, with new determinations, with a new vision and with new ideals. "The great world war war which has engulfed our fair country along with otter nations of the world is now mobilizing every resource of men and materials and money to the end that autocracy shall be deformed, so that this thing we call democracy, liberty, freedom, shall reign throughout the world. We are facing the war with lips set. We know that our country is right, and 'three armed is he who hath his quarrel just.' "There are ten millions and more of us in this country and we constitute an asset of overwhelming value to our country. It can have no concern that is not our concern. It can share no disaster that we are share; it can have no triumph or right in which we should not have a part, and sharing in the great privileges of this country we are ready and willing to join our countrymen in the great struggle which is before us. "We appreciate the fact that privileges and opportunities go hand in hand with duties and responsibilities, and, so, whether we shall be co-operating with the War Department at Washington, bearing military arms, or helping the food administration towards the conservation of food, or the fuel administration to conserve the nation's supply of coal and wood, or through the agricultural department to promote the growing of crops that our armies and the armies of the allies may be fed—we are all citizens of the civilized citizens, conscious of the fact that our country has been courageous enough and just enough in this hour of national emergency and need, to call to the colors representatives of that race which up to fifty years ago was enslaved, and which has during the years which have followed sought to prove themselves worthy, not only of the constitutional guarantees of the Federal Government, but at the same time of the confidence and good-will of their fellow citizens of whatever race and color." Cute an enchanting evening was spent. Mrs. Lena Jones will be supervisor of the club. The club will meet in the home of Mrs. Fannie Campbell, 1004 South street, next Monday. A vote of thanks was turned by Mrs. Francis-Lynch. Dismissed by Mrs. Fannie Campbell. PRES. BUCHANAN'S ADDRESS TO CIVIC LEAGUE A GEM Birmingham, Ala., Jan. 4th.-Special to the Globe:-With a capacity house the colored Civic League of Birmingham held their Emancipation Celebration at the Sixteenth Avenue Baptist Church. The audience was truly a representative one, including the chairman and several members of the Board of Commissioners of the city of Birmingham. The meeting was presided over by Dr. P. S. Moton and Dr. P. W. Sanders. The orator of the day was Walter S. Buchanan, President of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College of Normal, Ala. Upon the conclusion of his address he was roundly applauded and given an ovation of which any man might be proud. His address follows: The Negro's War Aims. "The year nineteen hundred and seventeen leaves a record that we cannot well forget. The lights and shadows are marked and abiding, death has claimed many of our good friends, among others Senator Foraker, Frank B. Saxonborn, H. L. Morehouse, of Ollis Barke F里斯; our own Bishop Walters, John E. Rush, M. W. Gilbert and B. H. Hudson. We thank God for their labors and we trust Him for their reward. The Atlanta fire, East St. Louis and Houston bathe in blood and shame the sinking sun of nineteen and seventeen. But thanks God the other side of the shield is more beautiful to look upon. During nineteen and seventeen 500 of our young people have graduated from college and 3,000 from high school. In the state of New York 75,000 colored women have been given the ballot, a Negro has been sent to the New York State legislature, and another put on the Board of Education of New York City. We have nearly 10,000 black army officers and Emmet Scott so far officer to the Secretary of War. But best of the job is the segregation decision handed down recently by the Supreme Court of the United States which declares it unconstitutional to segregate citizens in residential districts based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Wit, these good things to look upon, we face the year nineteen and eighteen with greater faith in our country and with renewed hope in the ultimate triumph of justice. But with all these things and more to reflect upon the thought uppermost in our minds as the New Year dawns is the Great World War and what will come of it. We grew impatient with the white people recently because we thought they were not going to let us take part in this war, but we found later that they were only giving us a chance to gather our crops and wind up our business before they called our boys to training camps. We are glad to fight our countries but battles. We hear no malice for the wrongs we have suffered, and we want our Chief Executive to know that although we are gathered in his rear ten million strong, with offended Mexico at our back and German conspirators in our midst, we will never count with our country's foes, nor lift a treacherous hand. On the contrary, we shall fight side by side with our enemies in the very front. Line trenches—where during the moment of our country's peril white soldier and black soldier—with no thought save that of our sacred home and common country, will wash out all racial animosity in the blood of our heroic dead. We could do otherwise for from Court Square in Boston, where Crispus Attucks charged the British crown on through Wagner and Fort Pillow to the block houses of San Juan Hill, and even to the recent death trap at Carrizal "where some one blundered" and the part of the brave black soldier was but to do and die. We have shown a strong and uniform patroltism, which must in time win the honest and equal protection of the flag we have died to save. It must be so. "For right is right, since God is God. And right the day will win: To doubt would be disloyalty. To falter would be sin." The leading nations engaged in this war state their war aims from time to time. England, Russia, Germany, the United States, all have stated their aims. But each of these countries is but a larger group composed of smaller industrial, political, or racial groups, which in turn have their own separate and distinct war aims, which so far as have been revealed have not been entirely out of harmony with the governments under which they are fighting. England would restore Belgium to the Belgians, and Ireland would help her do it, but demands in return Home Rule for the Irish. Russia wants an ice-free seaport, and Finland would help her get it, but expects a Scot-free Finland in return. Our government would make the world safe for democracy, and the Negro is with it to the man,—but we would first have democracy safe in Aaibahama! Some of the smaller groups in this country have already exacted of the government their pound of flesh. Capital has done it by, boosting prices and labor has done it by forcing up wages. But the Negro is far too patriotic to embarrass his government in the time of the nations peril by making any demands whatever, and yet our fellow citizens must expect us, as the only distinctly proscribed group in the body politic, to look forward to certain long sought benefits as a result of this great conflict in which we are NUM&ER 11 RAILROAD PORTERS ORGANIZE CLUB DIXIE FLYER BANQUET GIVEN—Y. M. C. A. DINING ROOM—VISITORS PRESENT—FLOW OF ORATORY AT FESTIVE BOARD. Members and friends of the new Office Porters' Club of the N. C. and St. L., were the participants in a spread in the Y. M. C. A. dining-room Friday night. It was a sumptuous repast served by this new organization that is composed of some of the oldest railroad men in Nashville. While the affair was hurriedly gotten up, no signs of haste were indicated by the menu served. It was only proposed on Tuesday, so it was learned, but was pulled off on Friday, and was therefore named "the Dixie Flyer Banquet" in honor of the famous N. C. & St. L. train which leaves Nashville for Florida each day. Mr. C. C. Cannon, the master of ceremonies for the occasion and the vice president of the new club, acted to toastmaster. He gave the purpose of the spread, saying the members of the organization wanted to extend their hospitality to some of their friends. At the close of his remarks he introduced Mr. Humphrey howling, the president of the club and also president of the Railroad Club. Mr. Pelling in the course of his remarks said the N.C. & St.L. employs three thousand and seven hundred members of the race in various capacities, and that he had been with the N.C. & St.L. about thirty-one years, that he had been personally acquainted with three presidents of the road, having worked with them in various capacities. He gave a replete history of the older parent organization, declaring that it was, the only Railroad club to have kept alive more than three years. He talked for twenty minutes and received hearty applause. The next speaker was Mr. W. D. Laws, a member of the organization, who made a report of the donation that the men at the general offices had made for various occasions during the past year. They run from $1 up to as high as $73.55. Then Mr. Jackson Tate, who is known as the father of the railroad men around the N. C. & St. L. general office, delivered a gift to the railroad men years with the N. C. and St. L. Company. He told of some of the early incidents that were responsible for the organizing of the railroad men. He was given a great sand off at the close of his remarks. Among the others who spoke were Bishop I. B. Scott, of the Methodist Episcopal Church; Mr. J. C. Nabler, cashier of the One Cnt. Savings Bank; Mr. Henry A. Boyd, Secretary of the Sunday School Congress; Mr. W. N. Sanders, Secretary of the Webster Dr. J. A. Nauplier, Dr. S. W. Crosthwait. It was a real star banquet. The catables were served and the party was paired off in tables of four and six. After the conclusion of the speeches the members offered a vote of thanks to the visitors for the timely remarks and arrangement, while the visitors in turn offered a resolution, urging that they be remembered on this annual festival occasion. President Bowling made tentatively some of his spun plans and unworking certain of the future which he carried to a succession carried will put Nashville tar ahead of any other city for railroad men's activities. Under the direction of their two main leaders, the office porters of the N. C. and St. L. Railroad general offices organized a club host Friday night. The organization was perfected in the front parlor of the Y. M. C. A. There were in all thirty in attendance. The meeting was called by some enthusiastic supporters and workers of the Railroad Protective Service. After they had there for some few minutes, a temporary organization was perfected, and finally a permanent organization was entered into. Mr. Humphrey Bowling was chosen as president: Mr. Mack Hale, secretary: Mr. Thomas Webster, treasurer: Mr. C. C. Cannon, vice president. It was understood at this meeting that the work and scope of the new club would be set forth in the constitution and by laws later on Enthusiastic talks were not lengthy, but with enough ginger to give color to the occasion. freely coiningling our blood with that of our countrymen and our country's allies. We feel justified, therefore, in stating our war aims and we have reason to hope that they will one day be realized. Aim number one. In the first place we want a chance to work. The Negro hopes that when he returns from France with missing leg, blinded eye, and empty sleeve, he will not be denied the opportunity to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow in any occupation whatever, on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude! And this ai mdoes not apply to mechanical trades only. In this country which clamors for world democracy, a white man of whatever nationality or allegiance has open to him fully one hundred lines of employment to the Negro's one. And yet both salute the same flag and endeavor to dodge the same tax collector. This unpatriotic practice has put more Germans and Austrians in positions of trust and responsibility in this country than the government can find and weed out in the whole course of the war. A few days ago a prominent Negro was engaged in raising a pub subscription to pay for Testament to be presented to the colored man of his town who had been drafter. And when he approached a certain white man whose name indicate Continued on page . . . COLDS NO LONGER TREATED WITH CONTEMPT The Modern Way Is to Break Them and Avoid Danger. In times past a cold was treated with contempt as if it were only an unavoidable nuisance. They are not treated in any such careless manner now. Science has traced too many serious diseases back and found that they started with a "common" cold. Nowadays they are broken at the first sign. And Lung-Vita is fine for this, requiring only a dose or two. This medicine not only breaks up the cold bu tclears your lungs and bronchial tubes of any phlegm that has accumulated. After the first dose or two you lose the headache and that tried, drowsy feeling and in fact feel fine. Thousands of people have and are using Lung-Vita to break their colds. First, because it gives quick results, and, second, because it is harmless and economical. One bottle will last a long time. All druggists and dealers have Lung-Vita.-Ady.

Mr. Wilkins has been in the service TO GROW LONG, STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food. There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeeby's Quinade is a highly medicated powder of the oil of this plant. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in it. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or email as the price and wholesaler to you. Write to Seeby Drug Co. 79 East 130th street, New York City, for a sample of Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper—Ad7.

Mack T. William Speaks. Probably one of the greatest days in the history of Giles County, was Jan. 1, when the Emancipation exer elses were in keeping with the sig nifleance of the day. ‘The oceasion was one long to be re membered by the people who were fortunate enough to be present Unsler the direction of Prof. Morrell Turner, and Bridgeport, elaborate plans had been made for the occa sion, Dr. A. M, Townsend, President of Roger Williams University, was t be the speaker of the day, but due t a slight illness, he was unable to Ix present. Dr. Townsend sent in his place. Rey. Mack, 'T. Williams of Roger williams University to fill his place as principal speaker on the program, Though the Weather was cold and. threatening, people from all parts of Giles County met in the court house at Pulaski ‘Tenn,, to hear the speaker. ‘The speak er was introduced by Prof, Bridge port. Rey. Williams was a thorough mas- ter of the situation from the opening sentence to his glowing climax which was captivating. ‘Time and again the vast audience was moved to prolonged applause, by the speaker, whose style of oratory 1s Teadily appreciated by every one. ‘The speaker had a big disadvantage to overcome, but was equal to every condition that confronted him. ‘The train upon which he came was late, not withstanding he Was met at the depot by a reception committee in waiting automobiles and hurried to the court house. Rey. William, from the start won his audience by not indulging in pre leminaries but steadily pouring forth an Emancipation oration of work. ‘The close of his address was a gem, for it contained a beautiful eulogy to the women of our race. Rev. Williams, by our request preached the same night at the Bap. tist chureh o fwhich Rey. Howard is the loving pastor.

Washington, Jan, 7.—Mrs, Gertrude Young, widow of Private Riley Young, living in Galveston, ‘Texas, has writ ten the National ‘Colored Soldiers Comfort Committee here, asking for help. Private Young was one of the poor fellows recenfly hung at Fort Sam Houston. Because those men met a tragic fate for daring to act for the race, and because Sergeant Baltimore met his tragic end as a re sult of daring to defend a colored Woman against insult, the Commit tee is urging quick response to its appeal for funds to enable it to be. xin relief work. It is said very few of the so-called leaders of the race have responded, the majority of con- tributions thus far coming from the poorer members of the race, and from colored women who revere the meniory of those thirteen hung, and those forty-one sent to prison” for life, as a result of having the cour- age to defend a colored woman ‘acainat inealt.: SENDS BEST WISHES.

BERT WILLIAMS The January number of the American magazine, has an article by Mr. Bert A. Williams, the famous comedian, which not only contains much truth, but should be a source of much inspiration to many of our race who sometime despair because the color line seems to be a barrier in their progress that is if they can be inspired by one who dreadfully fails to practice what he preached. Amang the good things in Mr. Williams article he said: "People sometimes ask me if I would not give anything to be white. I answer, in the words of the song, most emphatically, 'No!' How do I know what I might be if I were a white man? I might be a asand hog, burrowing away and losing my health for $8 a day. I might be a astreet car conductor at $12 or $15 a week. There is many a white man less fortunate and less well equipped than I am. In truth, I have never been able to discover that there was anything disgraceful in being a colored man. But I have often found it inconvenient—in America. "How many times have hotel keepers said to me, 'I know you Williams, and I like you, and I would like noth ing better than to have you stay nere, but you see we have 'Southern gentlemen' in the house and they would object." "Frankly, I can't understand what it is all about. I breathe like other people, eat like them—if you put me at a dinner table you can be reasonably sure that I won't use the ice cream fork for my salad; I think like other people. I guess the whole trouble must be that I don't look like them. They say it is a matter of race prejudice. But if it were prejudice a baby won't have it, and you will never find it in a baby. It has to be in incubated on people. For one thing I have not ticed that this 'race prejudice' is not to be found in people who are sure enough of their position to be able to defy it. For example, the kindest most courteous, most democratic man I ever met was the King of England the late King Edward VII." Mr. Williams is in a position to do much for his race. One of America's greatest actors and the recognized leader of the theatricals of all times, as it concerns the race, however his attitude towards members of his own race means much more perhaps than anything he can ever say. For the last few years, Mr. Williams has enjoyed his greatest prosperity and has received his greatest recognition from the white press and public, but has turned down all his old race friends, and seeks the association of whites who are in every way inferior—when approached concerning his attitude he has said on numerous occasions, "I am through with the brother." Shamful ingratiude to those who supported and applauded him, making his present position possible. A shamful contribution to the memory of his late partner George Walker—whose noble work in behalf of his race will ever live. However we thank Mr. Williams for his article in the American Magazine for there are some good things ever "made in Germany-perhaps he is of a changed heart. ARMY EXECUTION FORBIDDEN A few days ago the associated pdss carried the following: "President Wilson has prohibited the execution of any more American soldiers—except in General Pershing's forces abroad—before the sentences of the courts-martial have been review ed in Washington. Hereto-fore this has not been necessary in wartim. Thirteen Negro troopers of the Twenty-fourth infantry were recently executed for the rioting at Houston, Texas, without review at Washington. Surely full justice was not done at Houston in the eyes of the administration at Washington, and we are thankful for the foregoing order, in view of the fact that other members of the 24th infantry were on trial. THE PARK (?) We wish to call the attention of the City Park Commission, before they make their annual appropriations, to the needs of Hadley Park. The park has never received the attention it deserves. There are no shrubs, flowers, walks, or anything which would tend to make the place inviting. The park in the summer, is a desolate place with here and there a mud puddle or a rank growth of sweet annie nothing to recommend it to the good graces of the visitor. Just an old waste, that's all. It is up to the commission to do something towards beautifying this plague spot and after they have done this they should put some one in charge who has a fine sense of dismotion and discrimination. Mr. Commissioner's do something for Hadley Park. A CENTRAL GRAMMAR SCHOOL. It is to be hoped that the Board of Education will hearken to the desires of the Negro and give him the much needed grammar school somewhere near the center of the City. The new Pearl High is too far and most undesirably located, many children having to encounter a dangerous railroad crossing in order to get to the school. It would be nothing but just and equitable for the board to make better provisions for the Negro children of the City. Chattanooga and Knoxville are more fair to their Negro population than Nashville. These two Cities have ample facilities for school children of both races. The Negro will have a more centrally located grammar school if the board means to do that which is generous. We beg to call attention of the board to the fact, that Negro children are mostly living a long ways from the Pearl High School Building and need relief badly. TRUE CHRISTIANITY The congregation of a Boston church voted to accept the recommendation of the pastor that church coal in the church bins be distributed among the poor. The action has probably caused more people to think about Christianity, the real kind, than if the church had been kept open and thrice the usual number of prayers said. THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE The plea of the Hearst Newspapers for a fund to rebuild the Cities of France is both noble and philanthropic. Let us first complete the task to which we are dedicated, "Save France" and rebuild her Cities afterwards. With the weather thirteen below zero, and the coal shortage acute in New York City, a scientist comes forward with the information that there is plenty of coal on the moon—somebody will next blame the Government control of the railroads if we don't get some of it. We are now face to face with actual prohibition if national prohibition comes there will be nothing to bootleg with, and you will be able to strike a match on the inside of a beer vat. "Men almost lynched in Iowa," says headline. Nothing of that sort could happen in Dyer or Shelby County Tennessee. An enlisted man writes, that he doesn't mind the trenches, but he hates to be 3000 miles from Mrs. Gary's restaurant. And, as we said last week you don't need so much sugar if you have a sweet wife. You are three persons. You are what you are, what you think your are and what people think you are. Well, the first robin aint due yet, neither is the early blooming crocus. Remember the meatless and wheatless day and keep them wholly. The plumber is the happy guy these days. JIM CROW ON THE RAILROADS. Mr. Editor I need not ask for your valuable space, to repeat the same old story of Negro loyalty to this government, or to call to mind the many deeds of daring on hundreds of bloody battle fields, in order to prove his patriotism and devotion to a great cause; for the Negro's record is made and it cannot be effaced. It is true we hang our heads in shame when such outbreaks take place as happened in Houston, Texas; we heartily deplore the Brownsville affair (although I do not believe such a thing could have been possible in Tennessee); but one thing is certain, the Negro race, in the past, was never produced a Benedict Arnold, a John Winkles Booch or a LaFollette in the senate of the United States. Why are the bridges and tunnels throughout this country, guarded today? Does anybody suspect the Negro? Not a bit o fit. Why are the nunitions plants and other great NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY JANUARY 11, 1918 manufacturing establishments under federal guard? Are they afraid that some Negro will do some violence to these works, either as interested enemies of the government or as bird agents of the central powers? No, a thousand times no. The men that Uncle Sam fears, even in our very midst, are white men. They are men who have been accorded every right and privilege that could be allowed any living human being. No civil religious or social rights, has been for a moment denied them.. Because they were white men (and white means everything in this country.) they have been given the right of way, and now after a hapse of violence, they have our ourselves confronted with the problem of all problems, a problem bigger than the "Negro problem;" we find ourselves carrying a load heavier than the erstwhile "white man's burden"—it is the United States' burden. The Negro has quietly consented to be the "problem," and has striven hard through these years, to help solve it; he has without a protest, consented to be called the "burden." but he has engaged in a thousand efforts to lighten this burden from the white man's shoulders. And now again when Uncle Sam calls for him to lay down his life in the great fifti to worldwide death, he answers the call even though he may be "jim-crowel" in the very army and the navy, and contributes his bit in every other way that the white American does, in order that this war may be won for freedom and democracy. But in the face of this, the most trying time in the history of the country, there are still to be found a few southern newspapers and news paper correspondents, who are so completely obsessed with race prejudice that the lose sight of the true situation in their eyes to "make the Negro know his place." The Nashville evening paper contained this editorial recently: tained this editorial recently: "There is no danger that Southern Jim Crow laws will be set aside since the railroads have come under governmental control. Mr. McAdoo is a Southerner." Now, why would the evening paper fly into our faces and insult us without a cause? Had the race railed such a question? Why should the Banner cry "wolf" so soon? is the editor accustomed to seeking "ghosts?" To my way of thinking this country, even this Southern section, will be apt to find more to engage its attention before this struggle is over than the matter of "Jimcrowing" the Negro on Southern railroads. Mr. McAdoo, as a Southerner, may not be able to do everything he would like to do before the end comes. But we must be able to do that, because the Negro will be the last one to give any trouble. We wish to serve notice on the Banner's editor that the Negro is not losing any sleep about "Jimcrow" laws, and the effect the war conditions will have upon them. And it would be well also for the Banner to possess its soul in patience Strange things, yea, unheard-of things sometimes happen as a result of war. And the Negro, though in a large measure, ignorant, is somewhat of a philosopher; he knows that was always revolutionizes things; that in the war, some go and some go down; that as a result of war, very often the rich are made poor, and the poor are made rich. The Negro has learned the lesson of leaving some things to God—the God of our Fathers, who holds in his own hands the destiny of nations. We believe that God will do right, and whether Mr. McAdoo is as Southerner or a Northerner, God is still living and will have somewhat to say concerning the affairs of men and nations. J A.

IN MEMORIAM In sad and loving memory of dear, beloved and devoted mother, Mrs. Elizabeth McKay, who passed away one year ago, November 12, 1916. A loved one from us has gone. Her voice we loved is still. Her place which is vacant in our home. Never can be filled. God in his wisdom has recalled, His love his boom has given, And though her body moulds, Her soul is safe in heaven. Miss Lizzie N. Kelley, 1015 6th Ave., N., Nashville, Tenn. Mr. and Mrs. Luther C. Roberson 911 W. State Street, Springfield, Ohio Pres. Buchanan's Address to the Civic League a Gem (Continued from page 1.) his nationality, he was met with the remark, "Professor, I won't do a blame thing to beat Germany." Who knows but what our present failure to have our army in France and our training camps at home properly supplied with artillery, ammunition, guns, clothes, etc., is not due to the presence of men somewhere who "won't do a blame thing to beat Germany"? And yet Negroes are not wanted in the navy. I have heard said that some of the best gunners in our navy today are men of foreign birth or parentage, and that because of this fact that is some misgiving as we would expect in which the guns would be aimed in case of a naval engagement with Germany. But if the same guns were manned by American Negroes there would be absolutely no question as to the direction in which they would be pointed! We hope that after the war there will be not only Negro cooks and waiters aboard our fighting ships, but Negro mates and gunners too! Surely a race which is willing to fight for its country should be given every opportunity to work for its country. Aim Number Two. In the second place the Negro hopes that the black war orphans of Alabama will have better educational facilities than their fathers had. I am told that fully 40 per cent of the black drafted men at Camp Dodge can neither read nor write. This is certainly no wonder when we examine the very inadequate public school system which has afforded their only chance for learning. As I watched hundreds of these unlettered plowmen trudge forth to camp, I could not help thinking how utterly impossible it is for this try to reach its best potentialities with one slave and the other twice half up and the other down; one half educated and the other ignorant. Education is the bulwark of liberty and ignorance is its sure destruction. Russia shows that, and unless a more honest effort is made, educate the Negro this country will surely find it out. There are only four public high schools for Negroes in the whole state of Alabama, and there is no public high school in Texas that maintain a college for them. Out of the public tax the state should duplicate for the Negro as far as is necessary every institution which is maintained for the white man. Local taxation measures and compulsory school attendance laws which do not apply their benefits to both races alike are poor makeshifts in a country which champions world democracy. Had Belgium spent half of the time improving the natives of her African colonies that she spent in terrorizing them, they would have proven far more helpful to her in her present trouble. Had it been a common people of Russia been as well educated as the common people of Germany, would have been no war, imprisonance is a curse to any people, and it is short-sighted statescraft that does not work genuinely to banish it wherever it is found. Aim number three. In the third place the Nexro is fighting for a chance to live. At present he is more subject to disease and death than the white man because he lives in more unsanitary surroundings. The Nexro dies faster than the white man because he lives so much harder. And often when our means and intelligence prompt us to move out from amidst the filth and pollution, our efforts are misunderstood. Now we like to live together, but we have found that when we settle ourselves off in Darktown—no matter how nice the homes we build, nor heavy the taxes we pay—the sewer lines, the water works, the electric lights, and the paved streets too often stop short at the very lot where our homes begin. And it takes long hard begining to coax them further. Our [Name] J. DR. WALTERS BUCHANAN, President State A and M. College, Normal, Ala. white friends may yet learn that the best way to segregate us is to make the section of the city in which we live as clean and healthy as the rest of the city, for no one of us cares to live next door to a white man, but we are all anxious to live next door to sewer lines, trash carts, water mains, side walks and electric lights. Aim number four. And lastly the Negro hopes that his patriotism in this war will bring him back the ballot. Our government grew out of the idea that taxation without representation is tyranny. And we know it is! In the words of Kelly Miller: of Christian over Turk—tice of true democracy country where the Sts banner in truth may land of the free and the brave." BELLS. Mr. and Mrs. John their charming little g of Coshocton, Ohio, arr evening, the guests of Mr. Mossie Copper, and Chilean were married A noon in the home of the reents. They left Tuesd Bluff City, Theo frien In a recent state paper it is intimated that the war will continue until the German people can have a voice in the terms of peace. But the Negro will go this one better and hope that the world war will continue until every black man in the Union has a voice in declaring war:—And especially when black men are to be forced to go five thousand miles across the sea to fight the battles! But we are in the fight gladly because we love our country and have faith in our countrymen. Therefore we have willingly—cheerfully—hopefully sent our sons to the army and our daughters to the fields. And our money is just as patriotic as ourselves, as witness our Red Cross buttons and our Liberty bonds. When the war is over, a Negro should be just as welcome to scratch an Australian ballot as to buy a liberty bond. One hundred thousand black men are already fighting in France and we have nearly as many more getting ready to go "over there." And we do not pray that they will all return, for we want our blood to enrich the fields of France along with that of other liberty-loving people as a heritage to our children in the history of world freedom. We shall go and do our best believing that the best will come back to us, and hoping that for every black man who gives up his life on the western front, some black boy in Alabama will have life more abundantly So we are all going "over the top somewhere in France"—English, Africans, Russians, Americans, Asiatics—some for one group aim and some for another, but all united against a common foe and in support of a common ideal; and none who fight will be the weaker because he has an aim peculiar to his own little group. Our aim is to win by fighting with our government what most people in government against their government—namely, all the benefits that a democracy vouchsafes its citizens. Thus we face the New Year full of expectation and with great hopes in what the success of our country's arms will really mean to us—not more territory for France, not a seaport for Russia, not even the triumph THE NEW YORK TIMES of Christian over Turk—but the practice of true democracy in our own country where the Star Spangled banner in truth may wave over the land of the free and the home of the brave."

Each package for the officers cop- tainal a French mirror, a poetic, Tou- ment edition of the novel of John and two oxides of chocolate "THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAVEN" Cora Jordan White. Awake ye sewering nations of the earth! The kingdom of Heaven is at hand. The kingdom of heaven has always been at hand, to the few individuals who have been simple enough to reach forth and take it but never before in the history of the world's progress have so many individuals been tried in the fire of suffering and purified on the altar of sacrifice as now. Never before have so many ordees been raised in the fire of rivers so brotherhood and never before have so many tongues clamorped for peace. Where is the Prince of Peace? Has he forsaken the earth and left us to battle with a grim foe alone? The Prince of Peace is in the earth at this very moment. The chaos and calamities of the present are great and terrible evidences of the beginning of his kingdom. It was necessary that great changes take place in the world before he could set up this kingdom. Could the Prince of Peace set up his kingdom in Germany, the greatest and most terrible evidence in existence of the development of the materialistic idea. Could he dwell in peace in a land, armed to the teeth, with envy and murder in its heart and insanity at the root of all its designs, awaiting for forty years the opposite moment to spring with all its rightful power in the world? Could he make him home among the French, whose very existence was so moth eaten with pleasure seeking and debauchery that they had not the time to accord him one day out of the seven graciously given by Him as a day of worship? How could he dwell in Belgium when the blood of thousands of the black natives of the rubber districts of Africa, mutilated for Belgium's material性 advancement cried to his vengeance? His abode could not be safe in Russia with a weakling monarch under in influence of a melancholy queen, whose mind was swayed by one of the most diabolical characters history has known. There was certainly no room for Him in great, glorious, luxurious dollar-mad America. He could never dwell in a land whose sentiment of justice toward mankind is summed up in the words of his brother who bids an officer to salute his brother officer with a black skin, not because of the intrinsic worth of the black man, who with out molutions is force to fight the other man's battle for the other man's liberty and pursuit of happiness, his own liberty and hapiness having been ruthlessly denied him, not because of the fact that this black man has measured up to the standard required of an officer, but because of the uniform a mere scant NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY JANUARY 11, 1918. garment of wool, which he wears. What a pity that these uniforms can not fight the nation's battles for the nation's ideals. How sorry we are that they are absolutely useless unless animated by the presence of a white or black form within them, with minds to say where they shall go, when they shall go and what they shall do when they shall have gone. If uniforms were the nation's very black mother, if uniforms were the nation's very sweetheart in America would purchase a whole outfit and present it to the government as a price for the instant release of those disrespected black men so dear to them. The Prince of Peace is here! His preliminary campaign for the setting up of his kingdom began when 1914 innocently took his seat in the lap of Father Time. In this campaign the nations of the earth are being purified. How wonderful it is that blood stained Belgium should halt the triumphant march of the arch enemy of the Kingdom of Peace at the gates of Liege and pay for its sins of years gone by, by reaping what it has sown, and at the same time be glorified in the reaping! What a change is manifested in France. Out of the luxury loving, gay, trivourable nation has developed a nation of men and women spiritually clean, clean with all their might the work set before them and praying as never before for the establishment of the Kingdom of Peace. A broader field of vision has been opened to stild England. From one end of its vast domain to the other goes out a cry for universal brotherhood. And in America! It is great to contemplate a nation of the rich of offenders of its black citizenship still in its nostrils, with ruthless and summary punishment being meted out to black offenders and investigations and mild punishment for the same offense the lot of offenders other then black, with lines of segregation strictly drawn even in time of peril it is, I repeat, great to see a nation with these conditions at home march forth for the protection of other nations against like conditions and in the sacrifices made atone for all past misdeeds. What better horral that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and the Prince of Peace beginning his reign than the fact that the great army of America has one of its most loyal units thousand of these black soldiers that will knock the giant enemy of Peace from his throne, these black men, navylanding previous conditions will be present. The Bible predicts that the Kingdom of Heaven will be ushered in with terrible calamities. The nations of earth must be purified, Have the church and Christianity failed? The church can never fall. It is founded upon a rock against which the gates of hell shall not prevail. The principle of Christianity is as true to day as when a adying Christ gave his life to Christ the Saviour. If he have failed. Not all, for there are still several thousands, yer millions who have not bowed their knees to Baal. However surrounded by materialism christians have allowed it to encroach inch til now the whole structure of their lives is threatened and only drastic measures can avail. Men have witnessed this onslaughter and while decrying the evil have unconsciously made the Church of Christ more materialistic than many of its surrounding benevolent institutions. The conditions of the age have produced churches where the service or the sermon which should be the main part of the service, is either a short uninteresting late or a long tellous path to collection time. Solicitor for spiritual institutions are more numerous than the beginners of India. Before the Prince of Peace could rein these conditions had to be removed. If necessary the church must be institutional providing recreation for its younger members. Contributions must be taken, but the part of the church which is not given same amount of decorum and columna as was exhibited by the widows when she silently and timidly dropped her all into the box at the entrance of the temple. From one end of the universe to the other the people must revert to old fashioned ideals of love, virtue, truth and honesty. The time when people pour into a church to see one another and impatiently await the time when they shall be able to trot down the aisle in a fashion display, while flippant choirs sing jigs to the accomplishment of mammoth pipe organ is past. The Kingdom of heaven is at hand, down on your knees, oh people of America and receive your king. Begin your worship with "Allah hallowed you heads in solemn meditation till the great organ plays." "Praise God from whom all blessings flow." The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand The Prince of Peace is setting up His Kingdom! Now is the time for individuals to come out of the narrow self shells that have made up their former lives an deget purified on the altar of sacrifice. As assuredly as Rome's military kingdom fell, as assuredly as Pharoh's host was completely destroyed in the Red Sea. As assuredly as Babylon was completely wiped off the face of the earth, so have the physical and mental kingdoms of the earth reached their grand climax. Did it ever occur to you that in 1914 the God of earth looking over the accomplishments of the human mind, may have said, "it is enough." Have you noticed that since the war began there have been very few new inventions. There have been many adaptations of old principles and many improvements of old models, but nothing new. The human mind seems to have reached its highest point of development. Materialism has seen the hand writing on the wall. Its advocates have been weighed and found wanting. Awake ye nations of the earth! Bake straight the pathways of your hearts. Come out on the highway of truth and honor. The Prince of Peace is to be your guest. Arise men women and children of the Negro Race. A glorious opportunity awaits you. You are the citizens of the Heavily Kingdom. You are the new kingdom that awaits you any man can be great. Service and Humility are the watch words. Awake ye sorrowing nations of the earth the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! MISSES FLAGG ILL. Miss Viola Flagg, who has been ill for four weeks, is improving.

Bristol, Tenn.-Na., Jan. 9.—The Bristol Negro Business League, which has a record of seventeen years of solid achievement, celebrated on the evening of December 31, 1917, its 16th anniversary. The occasion was marked by a large attendance of both colored and white people who assembled in the city for the event here. It was one of the most intelligent gatherings that ever assembled in this community for a meeting of colored people. It represented in a symbolical way not only the wonderful achievements of this organization covering seventeen eventful years of useful endeavor, but the interest and the special emphases of the general ap preciation of what the league has accomplished. Robert E. Clay, the aggressive uplift worker and orator of national note, who has been the president and foremost promoter of this organization from its birth, presided over the deliberations and in the course of his annual address reviewed in a thoroughly appreciative manner the work down to the dawn of the present year. The history herein related revealed to the audience a methodical and systematic development for the Negroes of this community along all lines embraced in the league's field of action. Not only was there shown an educational and moral development worthy of any community in America, but development along lines of thrift, industry, economy, cleanliness of living and the health of the community up a proper conception of racial progress. This review revealed remarkable accomplishments in Negro thrift; and industrial and commercial development based upon an intelligent moral conception of what should be the goal of a race. Many substantial businesses owned and managed by young Negro men and women; numerous beautiful homes, owned and occupied by many of the most substantial church buildings of various denominations, public schools of a most substantial character—all told eloquently of the life and activity of the Negro Business League. The program was varied and interesting throughout. The chief speakers were the Honorable J. Parks Worley, State Senator in Tennessee, and one of the leading white orators of the state, and Prof. William J. Hale, president of the Negro State Normal at Nashville, Tenn. The addresses of these distinguished men were full of inspiration and hope for all who have enlisted in the forward movement of our race in this community and section. The masterly thoughts told simply and beautifully will live long in the memory of the audience. The program included talks by local men and music by the celebrated Negro Glee Club and other musical talent of the league. The program adopted resolutions emphasizing its adopted responsibility to maintain its high standard of work in every department, and to add all important movements looking to state and national development. A significant part of these resolutions was a pointed paragraph stressing the patriotic views of the Negroes of Bristol in relation to the world war. The League and the audience were thus unanimously pledged to the e. e. supper of the United States government in its broad and comprehensive plan to win the war for the freedom and liberty of all races under the sun, regardless of nationality or temperament.

State of Tennessee should represent in the Missionary Baptist Convention. Four million Baptists, white and colored, have voted to build and maintain a National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary in our state. What a fertile field this should be for its growth and development! The churches are not saving souls as they should. Many of our churches don't even try but once a year, using only five or ten days in the effort. Hence, our missionary and evangelical interest must be increased. God expects more of us. Save! Save! Because the war is on, is the universal cry of the nations of the earth. We must fight against ignorance and sin and the order from neaven is—"Save the people from their sins." The Executive Board of the State Convention will meet Friday at 10 a.m. Jan. 25, 1918, at the St. John Baptist Church on Pearl街, Rev. W. H. Whittaker, pastor. We hope this meeting will be a record-breaker in attendance and interest. Every member of the Board should be present.
