A. S. Burleson, Postmaster Gen. VOLUME XIII. More than ten millions of dollars have been handled by the One Cent Savings Bank since its organization, all of this money belonging to members of the race, was one of the facts brought out at the annual stockholders' meeting last Monday night, when the meeting was called to order by the vice president, Rev, C. H. Clark. DR. R. H. BOYD. President One Cent Savings Bank. who was presiding. No meeting in the history of the institution, according to the oldest stockholders, who were present from the very first time, have not missed a single meeting, have been more important, nor have any of the reports shown a larger increase in business for any one year. The meeting was opened with prayer by Rev. J. A. Lewis and upon roll call it was found that four-fifths of the stock was represented at the meeting. The first report was that of the casher Mr. J. C. Napier. In his report he noted that approximately one million dollars was the clearance of the 1917. "We have had an unpaid business year. The big ins in the history of the industry were the fall months of last month last year we within a few dollars of doing one hundred thousand dollars worth of business in one month and I predict that a greater confidence than ever before has been awakened in the people for this institution." We have had our share of reverses; we feel it is but natural that a concern doing business shall encounter these. And we submit to you a report of the year's work by months for your comparison as well as for your information." declared Mr. Napier, when called upon for his report. While it was being made, the president came in and applauded by the stockholders. He had been detained at home on account of no street car service and the severe condition of the weather impeding the progress of all modes of transportation. He made a splendid talk, declaring that "the One Cent Saying Bank had weathered not only recent misfortunes, but could antedate to the panic of 1913. With each assault our bank had grown in strength and like the wind shakes the mighty oaks and causes the roots to expand and go further into earth soil it has been with every hardship that our institution has had to undergo, until tonight we face with not only an increased business over last year, but an increase over this month of last year and with all, with a dividend check on your investment. The most marvelous part about our institution is we have paid each year a dividend after having not all running expenses and then we have been able to pass to the plus dividend. has a healthy amount. The stockholders who began with the institution and who purchased $5.00 worth of stock the first year, he has had paid back in dividend $4.40 and still has the $5.00. His same $5.00 has increased in value until it is now worth $7.50. Add this $7.50 to what has been paid to him and it shows that the original $5.00 is now worth $11.90 coming within 10c of doubling itself in fourteer years. The Lord has also had a plan in helping our institution, the growth of which has been watched with no little interest. We are the pioneer Negro bank of Tennessee and it was up to us to restore the confidence that for a while had been affected by the closing of the Freedman's Bank right after the Emancipation. Every stockholder of the institution has been given a guaranty to the desopitors by the purchase of their stock and they themselves have received a further guaranty by the accumulation of the surplus, declared the president in the course of his remarks. A splendid man was made by J. W. Grant, the attorney who was optimistic out the outlook and who admonished the stockholders to continue their great work. Talks were also made by Rev Wm. Haynes, Dr. H. Clark, J. S. Gibbs, Dr. J. A. Napeh and the assistant cashier, C. N. Langham. The President Dr. R. H. Boyd, delivered the following timely address: This institution has stood from 1904 to 1918, fourteen consecutive years. When we opened our doors fourteen years ago, our assets were in round numbers $1600.00; our assets today stand between $80,000.00 and $85,000.00.

Yes, we had our clearing house certificates of 1807. We had our City Savings Bank disaster, and last, but not least, one of our most trusted employees went wrong. But your Board of Directors has met each of these reverses as was becoming men who were trying to steer an institution that started, not for gain, but to restore lost confidence. This banking institution has gro banks in Tennessee. Fourteen years ago when we opened our door there was not been a Negro bank within the borders of Tennessee. We did not call you here tonight, ladies and gentlemen, as stockholders, to parade before you our reverses and mourn over them, but we called you here to tell you of our success and gains, and to rejoice with you over them. Starting as we did fourteen years ago with a $1600.00 asset, we rejoice to tell you that during these fourteen years more than $12,000.00, we have passed over our teller's counter. We have purchased and paid for the fixtures that you see before you. We have purchased and paid for a home for the bank fronting on Cedar street, a beautiful three-story brick building, which is well worth $18,000.00. I say this for the reason that a two-story brick building near the same size that brings less rent, was purchased recently at what was understood to be a bargain, for $25.00. For twelve years we have paid you dividend of 6 per cent on every dollar's worth of stock. One year we paid 8 per cent and one year 10 per cent, and we are here to night with the dividend coeals all made out to hand you your 8 per cent dividend. We want to rejoice with you, because we stockholder that paid $5.00 for a share of stock the years ago, has since received $4.50 in cash on that $5.00 worth of stock, and has today in $80,000.00 assets $7.50 to his or her credit. Let us therefore not mourn, because from time to time we have met a few reverses. This was to be expected, but when we can say to you that every dollar's worth of running expenses has been paid each year, that every stockholder has received $4.50 during the fourteen years for his $5.00 worth of stock and that we have so restored confidence in the city that we have been entrusted to pass over the counter, $12,000.00.00 and have an asset on hand of $80,000.00, that every $5.00 share of stock taken out fourteen years ago is still worth $7.50. I think we have great cause for rejoicing and for renewed confidence. I have a few recommendations to leave with the new Board of Directors when you shall have elected them, which is not necessary to mention here, but simply say to you that your duty is to elect a Board of Directors and they should proceed for another year's journey on the adventurous sea of banking enterprises. Upon the completion of the reports of all the officers the following directors were elected for the ensuing year: C. Clark, pastor Mt. Olive Baptist Church, I. B. Scott, retired Bishop M. E. Chuck, R. H. Boyd, Sec. Trees, Nat. Bap. Pub. Board, Wm. Haynes, Sec. Trees, S. P. Board, J. C. Napier, Cashier and Lawyer, E. B. Jefferson, Dentist, G. W. McKissack, Contractor, C. V.

Dickson, Capitalist, J. W. Grant, Lawyer, Preston Taylor, Underkatter, W. J. Hale, Pres. A. and I. State Normal School, C. N. Langston, Asst. Cashier. It was noticeable that not a single change in the board of directors was made. After the adjournment of the stockholders' meeting the newly elected directors held their first meeting and elected the following officers: R. H. Boyd, President, C. H. Clark, First NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JANUARY 18, 1918. GOSPEL PREACHER SHOULD HAVE BETTER CARE—GLOBE OPEN—ATTENTION INVITED ON SUBJECT. By Henry Allen Boyd "Pay the preachers of the Gospel a better salary and then demand their time, so that they may be able to study and expound the Gospel from their pulpits from time to time with more force and effect, in keeping with the intelligence of the age. "When the Lord said 'Go ye into my vineyard and work, and whatever is right I will pay, He was directing these remarks to the preacher, the minister, the pastor. One of the calamities of the age has been that the minister of the day is not paid a living salary. To every profession and every activity, young men are flocking. In the field of medicine, for instance, you will find in its various branches between four and five hundred students right here in this city each year. He womany will you find studying for the Gospel ministry? I attribute much of this to the fact that they are under-paid. A young man is ambitious, even though he calls to 'My Prey My Gospel', he, like Jonah, feels that he ought to go to Nineveh where life is gay and the responsibilities less; not so much that he is disobedient to the call, but he has seen so many hungry families, so many worthy ministers who are spending their lives and being spent for the cause, with no apparent lack of appreciation on the part of their people and congregation. "The pastor of a church should be one of the best paid men in the community. His congregation demands that he be intelligent, eloquent and in the front ranks of citizenry. In order to get this, the congregation ought to be able to pay the price. When perchance a young man enters the minibus and sometimes if he happens to take up courage enough to marry and rear a family, he not only must suffer himself, but the suffering extends to the family. The husband is not able to give to the wife what the girls or women in her circle are receiving. So often for the love of the family, and because of his independent spirit, he remains out of the ministry. "I advocate and am making an appeal for better salaries and promoter pay for the ministers and pastors. I believe that every church with a membership ought to pro rate its expenses, after making a budget, in the beginning of the year, and have the membership decide individually on how much of this expense they will take care of during the year. If there are fifty male members of the church and these fifty men will agree to pay One dollar a month each, they are one dollar each of fifty dollars, and one dollar each month, and this with this with the public collections and ended ought to make even a church with as small a membership of fifty raise an average of one hundred dollars a month or twelve hundred dollars per year. "I am not frimpin a charge against any individual. I believe first of all, the ministers have been willing to work to cheap, and secondly, the people have been only too willing to accept cheap service. Unless I mistake the signs of the times, I can see (Continued on Page : :) Vice-President, I. B. Scott, Second Vice-President, I. C. Napier, Cashier, C. N.

Lewis and Connie Cutcher, Executive Committee will consist of Preston Taylor, Chairman, C. H. Clark and J. C. Napier. The cashier presented the following report: ANNUAL MEETING IN FEBRUARY —LOCAL COMMITTEE AT Y. M. C. A.—LARGE ATTENDANCE EXPECTED. Nashville is to entertain once more the Knights of the Quill.

Chairman Williams is understood, will call another meeting in the near future to ascertain the local committee's desire along this line as well as the needs of the newspaper men who are expecting to attend. 1910 HON. R. R. CHURCH, VP HON. R. R. CHURCH. JR. Hon. R. R. Church was in the city this week attending the Republican Executive Committee Meeting. Mr. Church is the first colored man to serve with this committee since the time of Hon. J. T. Settle some twelve years ago. Mr. Church left Nashville for Montgomery, Ala., Tuesday night, from there he goes to Tuskegee to pay TAKE A SLANT.

"Off to Camp Gordon," was the statement announced at the headquarters of the Sunday School Congress this week when it was learned that the Secretary of the Congress and the General Superintendent of the Sunday School forces, was out of the city visiting in the interest of the Frontline Sunday School work. it is understood that on Thursday he was in Atlanta, Ga., and that he visited the soldier boys at camp Georgia is registered by at camp forces as one of the strongholds of their denomination, and much significance was attached to the trip of the Congress Secretary to the soldier boys. Net only will he visit Camp Gordon this month, but he will take in South Alabama and then swing up as far as Camp Dick, New Jersey, which is only a short distance out from Jersey City. He will be joined by Rev. E. W. Moore, D. D., of Column bus, Ohio, after they have visited Camp Sherman at Chillicothe. The Georgia trip, it is said, has another significance in that a special meeting of the Sunday school representatives of the state of Georgia has been arranged for this occasion, and that workers from several sections of the state of Georgia will be with the Congress Secretary, and plans will be out lined for more active Sunday school development in the Peace Tree State especially he Missionary feature.

"GOING OVER THE TOP" THE FUTURE HOLDS GREAT THINGS—A BRIGHTER DAY IN SIGHT AS THE DARK PALL WHICH HAS SO LONG HUNG OVER US HAS BEGUN TO VANQUISH—BY HON. J. C. NAPIER. At no time within the history of our people have the prospects been so bright for the coming of a new day, for the attainment of a more complete citizenship and for a relization of a perfect American democracy than that which seems to be in sight with the dawn of the year 1918. Already the pall which has so long hung over and weighed us down has begun to vanish. A glance backward will convince the most skeptical and pessimistic among us to the rapid strides we have made, the great distance we have covered since the first day of the year 1917. With this start—the highest Court in the land unanimously sustaining our citizenship, the War Department throwing open its doors to our young men as soldiers and officers, a member of our race occupying a position almost in the cabinet of the President of the United States it would not take a great stretch of the imagination to view ourselves at the end of another twelve months in full possession of all to which the laws of our country have so long entitled us and for which we have so long hoped. A few years ago it was not safe for a Negro soldier to pass through the streets of any city of our Southland. Now due deference is paid them wherever they appear and they move about unmolested as do those from any other group of our people. But of course there are exceptions to all rules and it is useless here to mention the recent deplorable position to this one. war. Never was such a demand on the public as now to organize clubs to buy Liberty bonds, pay Red Cross pledges and other war interest. Many Banks have suffered when large draft of money left the Bank for government bonds. Large Banks have made the partial payment of Liberty bonds offset the drafts given by customer I indulge the hope that the close of the year 1918 will find the world in the enjoyment of that peace which the Prince of Peace brought to earth nearly twenty centuries ago. Then with the halo of Christ shining over the bloody plains of Judea, the hills and vales of Europe, the prejudice ridden confines of America, what a glorious world and country we shall have. With the close of this war will come greater opportunities for our young people in the world of business, commerce, finance and trade than we have ever heretofore dreamed of. But doubtless our great leader, the founder and organizer of our National Negro Business League, Dr. Booker Washington had all this in his mind's eye while he worked so earnestly and strenuously for its welfare before he left. In the same spirit in which he worked I wish through your columns to urge our young men and women to proprie themselves to take advantage of these vast opportunities which are certain to come to us in all parts of the world when peace again reigns. The beacon light of the National Negro Business League will surely lead to "preparehead." PEOPLE'S SAVING AND TRUST CO ELECTS OFFICERS Cashier Hawkins Report. At a meeting of the stockholders of the People Savings Bank and Trust Co., officers were elected. There was only one change in the directorate. Mr. I, L. Moe taking the place of Mr. W. W. Tightower.

W. Simmons, W. D. HAWKINS MADE THE FOL LOWING ADDRESS "Since January last, our Country has plunged into a world war, imbed and moved by common aims, inspired and encouraged by a common purpose, loving and cherishing a common hope, subscribing to a common slogan, viz., "DEMOCRACY shall be enthroned in the kingdoms of the earth." This carries with it a refugiary of light and hope to opened humanity that hope shall be a new application of the words RE-LIGION, LIBERTY and LAW. With these new conditions will come increased opportunity for service, increased opportunity for commercial and scientific knowledge and financial advancement. Now, in proportion as the Negro people become acquainted with the philosophy of building well corporations of great magnitude, in such proportion will industries of every kind be established and maintained. All classes of the Negro thrive from the Negro's assistance in the Negro's Banks will handle larger paid up capital, better loan market, more widely patronized for their real purpose and existence in the community.

In times like these it is well for us to guard well our reserve. While many optimists believe the end of the war is in sight, there are still many rea- sions why we should exercise great care. 1st—The uncertainty of the war. 2nd—The exodus of Nashville peo- 3rd. The failure to increase common waivers in proportion to the high cost. BANKING BUSINESS As a business, the Bank has had its share of advantages and disadvantages. A steady stream of customers is always knocking or waiting to receive our polite service and as they depart from our door they carry "Good tidings," and others come. Upon the operation of courteous treatment and polite service hangs the weight of $30,000.00 advancement in assets and resources since our incumbency October, 1913. TRUST DEPARTMENT Considering the fact that we have more than 150 Stockholders in Nashville alone to be auxiliaries and boosters for the Bank, our Trust Department has done precious little. Many must be thoughtless or ignorant of the powers vested in us by our Charter, viz. to act as guardian, Trustee, Administrator, Executor and any fiduciary relation. So often people die without a will; put the Bank before the public as a square dealer to every one, controlled by an experienced Executive Committee, gives double as surance that all such business will be handled with care, prudence and good judgement. When your friend or your neighbor's friend is thinking of how and who shall look after his business after receiving the People's Savings Bank and Trust Co., a fair and impartial dealer with relatives, well informed and advise das to the duties and operation of such trust. Think of the large estate like the late Dr. R. F. Boyd, and Mr. Joe Brown, which would field quite a profit to the Bank. Small estates are solicited. REAL ESTATE We carry a few pieces of Real Estate on our books. All except our Banking House is for immediate sale, and at a bargain. We came by it at a bargain; we can sell it as such. Our custom is not to loan more than 50 per cent of the cash value on Real Estate; thus, when we are forced to buy it in for our debt, it will be a bargain to someone who needs a home. We will help you sell it, often gets hold of some good bargains, call on them. You will assist the Bank in turning over that money, thus getting more profit to our credit. BANKING HOUSE This site where we now stand is your Banking House. If we mean to stay here, and it seems as though we do, there are some improvements which your Executive Committee and Directors recognize and are considering, viz. higher ceiling, better heating facilities, better ventilation, improved basement. Our vault is already too small for our business. However, the well encased, Nature breaks its way out to kiss the smiling sn. Thus, in due time we will be force- to new adjustment. FURNITURE & FIXTURES Our position in the community demands greater things in respect to our furniture and fixtures, more inviting, more convenient to satisfy the pube (Continued on Page 8.) 2 Ogleton's School OF Modern Beauty Culture Sole Manufacturers of Balm Temple Hair Grower, Dandruff Care.

OUT OF TOWN NOTES Mr. and Mrs. William McCielan spent several days in Prospect, Texas, visiting relatives and friends recent lv. Mr. Peter Bell, a highly and respected citizen of this town passed into the great beyond on Tuesday evening at the age of sixty-nine years. The cause of his demise was pneumonia. He was a devout member of Winchester Street Baptist Church and had been a follower of the Cross for fifty years. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Peter Vertress, pastor of the church. Other remarks upon the life of the man was made by Revs. Jerry Gardher, James Martin and Chavis, of the several white friends attest the responder was esteemed in which Mr. Bell was held. Capt C. S. Douglass, for many years principal of the City Schools made a talk upon the life of Mr. Bell as a friend and neighbor of his, in which he said many good things. Would that we all could live so that we could have pleasant remarks spoken of us. News reaches us of the marriage of Miss Nimie G. Malone and Mr. D. Emmit Wallace. The marriage took place in Franklin, Tennessee, on December 27th. Gallatin claims Miss Malone by birth, but for the past several years she has resided in Nashville, Tennessee, where she graduated from Pearl High School. In 1947, the family is from one of the prominent families at the set at The Star Theatre on last Thursday evening. The large spacious room made it ideal for tripping the fantastic toe. Mr. Deshield McCullough of Nashville presided at the piano. Notwithstanding the predictions made a year or so ago by several that a drug store owned by race people could not live in this town with the strong competition. Gallatin today can boast of its pretty and neat little drug store that is owned and promoted by colored capital exclusively. Is this not enough to be proud off? They have no hands of all times fresh pur drugs, cigars candies, toilet articles, etc., together with a handsome soda fountain, where your favorite drink can be found. K. Wilson is its officer's description. The recent annual election of the Knights of Prayer, Summer Lodge No 263 resulted in as follows. Jas. W.

To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasoap.

H. A. Morgan, Federal Food Administrator of Tennessee. Teachers, preachers, organizations of all kinds should do their utmost to make this day a notable success. The time has come when everybody in this country must be busy in the work of teaching, saving and save or starve—or worse. The wolf is howling at many of our doors today. It may be at yours tomorrow. The one thing it takes to drive the wolf away is not money (what's the use of money if there is nothing to buy), but something to eat—"a hog," if you please. Pork may soon be little cents a pound. Every man, woman and child in Tennessee ought to own a hog. Have a memorial of the Kaiser and cast it in the memory of the Kaiser. substitute a pig each. In a year we can be richer by millions and at the same time render our Government a great, patriotic service. What Are You Going to Do About It? Prosperity and freedom mean as much to us as to the white people who are trying to help us help ourselves. Our boys in the trenches are making great records. It is your business and mine to do our best at home to help feed them. We will keep faith with our proud record of the past and remain to our Government loyal and dependable. Sincerely yours.

Demby, Suffragan, First of the "Racial Episcopals." The Episcopal diocese of Arkansas has taken a step in the matter of the color line that is held to be unprecedented. It is the election of a full blooded Negro to be a Bishop. The man chosen is the Rev. Edward Thomas Demby, archdeacon of Tennessee and principal of an industrial school in that State. He is reported to be a man of scholarly attainments and to have done sound educational work in Hebrew, Greek Arabic and German and French philosophy, according to the Boston Transcript. If he accepts the election, as he is ex-communion, he will pro biona to be elected under a plan for a racial enriched long discussed North and South and may be given jurisdiction beyond the State of Arkansas, extending into Texas, Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma. His work will be wholly among colored people and he will be under the general oversight of white authority the Right Rev. Dr. J. R. Winchester. So far as can be learned, no Roman Catholic, Methodist or other white Body of Christians, save this one, has conferred the rank of Bishop upon a Negro for service within the United States, and no Presbyterian, Disciples, Baptist or other religious organization has placed a colored man in authority comparable to that given to Demby. For fifteen years heated discussion has gone on in the Episcopal Church over this step. Bishops of the North have held their counsel, feeling that those of the South must decide the matter. South Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee have debated such election, but never actually ventured. Now Arkansas boldly tries it. The rank conferred is that of Bishop Suitragan—New York Sun.

Dear Sisters: In this, the beginning of a new year, the business men and women are laying new plans, making improvement on old plans and studying new methods by which they think their work may be carried on more acceptably this year than last year. They are trying to reach new fields and do better work than in the past and get more people interested in their business and spare no pains to keep the interest lost or becoming dormant. All this is necessary for better and more profitable business. If all this is required for material advancement, don't you think it expedient, don't you work it preparation for better work for Christ's kingdom this year? --- Don't struggle along in uncongenial employment with a lack of self-confidence or with yourself to do work that has little competition; isn't it better to work with yourself to do work that everyone else wants to do?

If there is one form of expressing the "s and back of the president" idea that is vainer than all others, it is that form which calls, sometimes even through sober editorials in the daily press, for the suppression of Col. Roosevelt. A Tennessee newspaper, for instance, reminds us that the war is going to be won or loss under Woodrow Wilson, since he has two more years to serve, and that we would as well recognize that fact now as later. It quotes with some apparent approval the words of the doughty Mr. Brishane, who asks the postmaster general who Col. Roosevelt is not death with under the law. The Globe has not in every case agreed with the expresident in either his criticisms or his manner of voicing them. It thinks that the president as the nation's war leader must be sustained—sustained and cooperated with. But the Globe respectfully reserves the privilege to disagree even with the president of the United States, should occasion demand, and it as respectfully submits that the right to do so also inheres at least in some degree in the person of our most passionate ex-president. Col. Roosevelt cannot in fairness be condemned for injecting partisan politics into his criticisms, because the administration in the matter of partisanship has set the pace for all to follow. And the political phase is the only phase of the colonel's utterances that is really subject to attack. Surely there can be no question now but that the colonel saw with his practical and experienced eye the truth of this great war when the president himself failed utterly to see it. For this the Globe is not disposed to berate the president; rather it admires him for the nerve with which he me, the situation when finally he had to meet it. But on the other hand the Globe thinks that the colonel should be given his due. And if the president is immune—and rightly, be it said—from harsh criticism for being too hopeful of avoiding war, surely the ex-president should be immune from harsh criticism for recognizing that there was no chance of that. Col. Roosevelt's criticisms are often weakened by the fact that they are pitched so high. He is sometimes unpleasantly aggressive. Nevertheless, it is true that his voice is the voice that carries farthest of all American. There has come a general, almost a universal, realization that the undevlating course which this individual has steered, the unfinished quality of his patriotism, is of the highest value to the nation. To talk of suppressing the colourel is chillish. It leads the impartial person merely to suspect that the colourel's criticisms have got home, that other officials in high places or their partisans in lower places have been made impotently farious by their inability to answer him. The Globe does not like to believe that of anybody. Suppress Col. Roosevelt? It is to laugh. How far does anybody imagine Postmaster General Burleson would get if he undertook to act on Mr. Brisban's suggestion and suppress the colonel? A MAN OF THE PEOPLE Hon. R. R. Church, Jr., of Memphis, was in Nashville this week in attendance upon the state republican executive committee which met to consider a call for a state convention o name a judicial ticket to be voted at the August election. Church is a capitalist, majority stockholder in the Solvent Savina Bank of Memphis, President of the Lincoln League of West Tennessee, Director of the Standard Life Insurance Company, of Atlanta, and an all-around race man. He is the mighty dynamic force in republican politics in Tennessee. He attends all the councils of the mighty and takes a seat in the Amen corner. He is a man who loves his fellowman, and proves that love by untrying devotion to their cause and unflagging service for their interest. He has a love for the real and hate for the make-believe; his contempt for sham and hypocrisy is profound, characterized by tremendous earnestness are all of his endeavors, his activities being notable and far-reaching. That he has the ear of the big party men of the North and East is acknowledged fact, and he uses his persuasions in that direction for the amelioration of the conditions of the Negro in the Southland. It is true that he gives his time and his means without stint to the upbuilding of the whole Negro race. He works while other professed leaders snore and dream. The phenomenal capacity for pengging away in order that right and justice may prevail is proverbial of him. He is known throughout the length and breadth of the nation, as having achieved results by the force of his own personality. Mr. Church is credited with great mental quickness, and the possession of much administrative ability, always manifesting these qualities in connection with his many successful business ventures. His whole happiness is in serving his race with whole-hearted simplicity. The idelity which is shown by him for his people merits the most supreme praise UNCERTAIN JANUARY This is the dubious month of January. It has a record in the past for thaws, blizzards, rata, snow and intense cold. Not every January of the past can point to all these varied weather items, but in the course of years they may all be found allotted to the first month. Humanly considered, January is the period of uncoiling and stretching, in preparation for the springtime's battles. We tender Mr. W. E. Cook of Pikeville our most profound consideration. The sausage arrived by prepaid express and we are supremely happy. O. joy! Don't forget to contribute your presence to Hog Rally Day. All porkers are expected to be on hand, not excluding Wm. Jenkins of Tulahona. In some of the states, zero weather prevails, others are having blizzards and there are some in which leis-fatures are in session. These are sorry days for the man with no bad habits. He has nothing to braak about having given up for the good of his country. The trouble with the reformers is they always want to keep reforming whether there is anything needs reforming or not. A Clinton man was convicted of being an unvirted bigamist, thereby distinguishing him from the usual or witless kind. In pledging all of our resources to the winning of the war, it is hardly likely that Congress intended excluding Frank Paschall. If the Russians are not going to fight any more, will they kindly lend us their guns so we can fight? Occasionally look yourself over and see if you are as reasonable as you expect other folks to be. As a man becomes older, the greater becomes his respect for the man who keeps his mouth. Some make a success of pool play but who are utter failures at everything else. But, you must help the poor unfortunate to get coal, not cold. And, the cold map is still mapping. GLOBE AD ATTRACTS ATTENTION.

The passage of scripture which is often referred to that "princes shall come out of Egypt and Ethiopia shall soon stretch forth her hand unto God" is claimed by many to be fulfilled almost daily. Several weeks ago the son of an African king arrived in this city in the person of Prince Aserambala de Condelede. He is to be here for an indebted period. Much has been said relative to his coming and to the work in which he is to be engaged. Already he has been heard to an advantage and to the delight of splendid audiences at many of the Baptist churches. His first appearance was at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, under the pastorate of Rev Dr Clark, and then at the "Third Ave pastorate, pastor and a number of the other churches. The Baptist Ministers' Conference was addressed by him last week. It has been interesting to know the various newspaper communications on his visit to this country. The Shreveport (daily) Times said REAL HOTTENTOT PRINCE AN INTERESTING VISITOR Aseranbala de Condelca, Native of Northeast African and Baptist For the first time in the history of the colored population of Shire, exported the elite of the black folk was housed by the presence of a genuine African prince of the royal blood. Yesterday, Charley Robertson, local colored lawyer, introduced to his friends Prince Asambala de Coudele, a native of Tanneebhuf, northeast Africa. The prince is a pure-blooded Hottenot. He was taken from his native heath by Baptist missionaries six years ago and placed in the St. John colored Baptist college at Austin, Texas. Within the coming year the young African will graduate in the ministry and return to the land of his father to spread the gossel. Condalee is a perfect type of the tribes that inhabit Northeast Africa. He is tall well formel has a receeeling forehead and thick lips. His techs are prominent and set far apart in the jaws. Aside from his racial and physical characteristics, the African, who is just 20 years of age is a surprise and delight to the lover of chateau English. He is the young men of his age. Condalee is a musician such a nicety of enunciation as dee Condalee. His voice is low, musical and well modulated and his vocabulary extensive. The prince is a relative of the late King Mendik of Abbsaynia. His father is king of Asehbalaland and sovereign ruler of something over three million people. Condelee's people are snake worshipers. He has ten brothers and many sisters. His father had over two score wives when the prince left Hotototland six years ago. Condelee bears the royal marks of the trumpet right hand. The middle finger has been removed at the first joint and above the knuckles are two marks seared in the skin by fire. "How will your identity you when you return?" Condellee was ask START RIGHT ed. "By the signs of the reigning family which were seared on my hand when I was four years of age," he replied. When asked, the nero cropped one of the folk songs of his nativity. His voice is sweet and musical. The young African will spend several days in Shreveport, the guest of prominent local Negroes. He plans to attend the state colored Baptist convention at Homer, La., beginning July 21 and afterward go to the national Baptist convention at Chicago. During the coming week Condellee will speak at one of the local negro Baptist churches. His address will embody a dramatic tone of the lives and struggles of his people and will translate from English to his native tongue any sentence or word that a questioner may propound. He will enter the ministry next spring and immediately after his ordination he intends to leave for Africa to begin missionary work among his people. The prince, while surrounded by the colony of baseball bugs that infest the courthouse, was asked if he played ball. He said: "When I embraced Christianity, there was so much to learn and the possibilities for good that I might accomplish, by grooming myself to carry the message of Christ to my native land, were so great that I had little time to give athletics. Intelligent study and good books occupied my time. I understand the game well enough to follow the plays." Condoleeza was an interesting visitor to the recent Southern Baptist convention, which was held at Houston, Texas. In explaining his presence in this country, the Negro said that when he turned 14 years of age, his mother ordered him to take his board from their cave to the nearby spring and bring her father. When he reached the spring he was hassled by white men. Before he could give the call of his tribe for help, the strangers told him that he had seen many days brought the party to the camp of missionary who took charge of him and through the latter's agency Couldee was sent to America to be educated. He is sure that his parents think he was deceived by wild animals. Couldee's explanation of the methods used by the Hottentots to convey messages by means of symbols marked on wooden slabs by illi rock is very interesting. TULLAHOMA. Sunday was a very cool day and the snow is still on the ground and so many of our people are in great need of wood and coal. The snow has been on the ground now about 40 days in all and that is very hard on some of our people who has so many of them are wishing that the good fellow, would come by this way soon. The church members are unable to get out to take the interest in the church as they would like and to give the proper support to the pastor. The clouds may hang heavy now but we will understand it better by and by. When the dark clouds of disappointments have been turned back and the beautiful sun light begins to shine that will bring good news to us and glad tidings to our cousins and then the good and we believe in our hearts that he always does things best, therefore that he always does things best, forward in the footsteps of the Lord and Master.

We are very proud to know that Mrs. Moses Christmas is seen to return to our town again. Prof. Anderson spent last Sunday with Rev. Wm. Jenkins, they were engaged all the evening in Rev. Library. Last week the sad news reached this place of the death of the son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Jenkins, who died in Colorado. Samuel Jenkins was a favorite son of the family and was a good and obedient boy and was beloved by all who knew him. The transms were met daily looking for the body of Samuel, to be sent to this place but no information could be given. Little Roy Mace, a Lincoln Ree is quite sick at this writing. Little Roy Mace, who is quite ill, the penumbra is not him. Little Roy Mace, who is for E. Fletcher, she will have two week for A.

The first stage of the campaign of the National Colored Soldiers' Combat Committee closed last night, when the many prominent men and officers of this city turned in their coupons, the counting of which will determine the personnel of the great moving picture that is to be presented throughout Washington and the country to assist in raising the money necessary to relieve the want of the dependents of the dependents of the National Army, and of others who will be called later. Besides these, the committee is taking steps to give immediate help to the next-of-kin of the unfortunate soldiers who suffered death in connection with the Houston riot and to extend aid to the dependents of the forty-one sentenced to life imprisonment at Fort Leavenworth. The pictures, adapted to numerous localities, will be a strong feature in the campaign of the committee, and the depictions and occupations will also figure heavily in the "drive" for the $2,000,000 goal. Entire Country Waking Up for the Cause. Rabbit W. Tyler, secretary of the national committee, is busily sending out literature from the central office at 1105 U.S. Street, N. W. In an interview this week he said the colored people all over the country are waking up to the importance of this cause and are responding nobly to the call for funds. Not only are the colored people giving generously, but the whites are showing great generosity and are giving largely everywhere, sending in their donations by, check money order and in cash. New York City is well represented among the contributors Arkansas colored people are responding sulendly, as a bunch of health-sized money orders will testify Charleston, W. Va., citizens under the aggressive leadership of J. C. Climber, D.W. Waters and I. H. Long, and raised $117 Clubs in Drulph, Mn., have sented arrangements to help and are sending in good subscriptions. The women are being heard from in many states, and they are being deeply stirred by the appeal for help for the loved ones of the "boys" who are to battle for liberty "over there." The women of Marion, Ind., are hard at work and sent in a creditable report this week. It is worthy of praise that 10,000 buttons of beautiful design have been ordered and will be distributed among the donors to the relief fund. Active work will begin in a few days in sections heretofore untouched, and it is expected that with the beginning of the first picture, campaign will take on a new spirit and expand to really nation-wide proportions. The scenario has been selected by Mr. Tyler and with the count of the votes in the popularity contest in Washington the first cast will be chosen. A similar contest will be inaugurated in the cities and other states will be given the opportunity to do his bit for the timely cause the National Colored Soldier. Confess Committee has undertaken. The leaders are all well known and the nation has confidence in their managerial ability and personal integrity. They will be loyalty supported by the masses. WINCHESTER.

"SEEING THE GOLDEN WEST" By Mrs. H. A. Boyd. I had been interested in the "Golden West!" from the days when in abbreviated skirts and be-biboned braids, I had experienced such a difficult task in bounding them and remembering their capitals. It was with great delight therefore, that I received the announcement that it was to be my opportunity to see with my own eyes the glory and glories of this romantic part of the country. I was a member of the congenial party left Nashville on September 4th, 1915 enroute to Chicago to attend the National Baptist Convention. Arrived in the city we were entertained several times at the famous Appomatox Club. This is an exclusive club operated by colored people. A place of great interest to me on this visit was the Coliseum where the Lincoln Jubilee was being held. There was a piano owned by Mrs. Lincoln, her mourning dress and veil. The NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY JANUARY 18. 1918 bureau and chairs of her room were remarkably well preserved. The bed on which the martyred president died, the chair on which he was sitting when shot, the sheet stained with his life's blood, his hat an dan old ax handle used by him, were interesting items of the exhibit. The National Baptist Publishing Board had a creditable exhibit, as did Meharry Medical College. There were many beautiful Scriptural Embroideries paintings and works of art done by Colored people. A place of widespread interest in Chicago is the home of Jack Johnson, noted pugilist. While in the city I visited the famous park, Zoo, stock yards and the First Regiment Armory, Leaving Chicago, we arrived in Omaha, Nebraska, to find the city_hitting the saw dust trail. Billy Sunday noted evangelist and successful financier, was fighting sin in Omaha. So very interesting were the battles being waged by him that unless you arrived at the mammoth tabernacle in which they were being fought before six o'clock, you would have to stand during the engagement. Omaha, is a great packing center, Thousands of cattle from the south and west arrive here yearly and are shaghtered and distributed throughout the country. Council Bluff is just across the river. From Omaha we made side trips to Florence, where the Mormons established their first home. It was with a deal of pleasure that I found myself in Denver after leaving Omaha. Beautiful Denver, the home of millionaires. It is said that there is only one frame building in the entire city. The streets are wide and the lawns beautiful. Uncle Sam has a mint located in Denver, which has the reputation of being the market for the silver of the world. The dome of the City Hall in this city is made of silver and from the dome of the capitol which is made of gold, can be seen two hundred miles of snowy mountain peaks. Who can describe the beauties and wonderful formations with which Colorado Springs is surrounded? Seventeen miles away is located the famous Cripple Creek, the richest mine in the world. Ten miles in the distance can be see Pike's Peak. In close proximity is the "Garden of the Gods" one of the most mysterious and marvelous wonders of the world. Here can be seen the "Gateway of the Gods" which consists of two enormous masses of red sandstone, with a smaller rock between them, making two passes. Here also will be found the "Kissing Camels" Hidden Inn, Sleeping Giant, Lion's Head, Mushroom Garden, Seal and Bear, Punch and Judy, Perpentine, Turtle, Baggage Room. All these high shapes are Nature's handiwork, made of solid rock. The wonder of this garden is the "Balanced Rock" seventy one feet high and leaning like the tower of Pisa. It appears as if it will fall any minute. From the top of the Steamboat Rock I could see all over the "Garden of the Gods." Manitou with its springs of health giving water, nests amid the rocks and trees at the foot of Pike's Peak. It is called the "Saratoga of the west." Pike's Peak is 14,000 feet high and is the most famous of all the Rocky Mountain peaks. We were very familiar with it, for as we remember now, it formed the center picture of a group of pictures in our geography and we will never forget how sorry we were for the poor little donkeys who had to climb Pike's Peak, "The Cog Line" starts from Manitou Springs and climbs directly up into the air for nine miles, till it reaches the summit. Rainbow Falls are at Ute Pass, Ute Pass is a beautiful mountain pass climbable above Manitou. This was the original stage route before the railways were built to Leadville. It is said that thousands of gold seekers have lost their lives in following its windings. Words are inadequate to describe the wonders and franduers of the Great Gorge" on board the Denver and Rio Grande the tourists are provided with open cars for the passage through the Gorge and Canon. The Gorge is ten miles long. Above my head for 2600 feet the red granite walls rise, smooth and unbroken by tree or shrubbery. At one point the passage is but ten feet wide, at which point a hanging bridge is suspended and the road bed built out over the water. Mountain sheep are seen in large numbers. We passed the Great Continental Divide and saw the motors of the Atlantic and Pacific. Of course we knew what the Great Continental Divide was for before the guide told us. Why should we nook, did not the same book that told us about Pikes Peak tell us about this same Divide. We were also glad to renew our acquaintance with Tennessee Pass. We knew that it tried to reach to the skies as did the Tower of Babie, however, we were surprised that it should succeed in getting 10,200 feet before it stopped. We are sure that the LLord did not let the Tower of Babie reach such a height before he confounded the tongues of the workmen. The most beautiful scene of all, to my mind, was the Mt. of the Cross". The sun shines on the of the cross. The sunlight can be seen for miles, set high against the brow of the mountain. The cross is by two transverse canons of immense depth, riven down and across the mountain side. These canons are perpetually filled with snow. While we are advocates of the "oneness" of marriage diffe, yet we could not forego a visit to Salt Lake City the home of the Mormons. The Lake upon which this city is built is (100) one hundred miles long and 60 miles wide. It is sixty times as salt as the sea and only shrimps can live in it. That was about the only advantage we could see to be derived from living in Salt Lake City. When, we were ready to serve shrimp salad at our teas, we could just go down to the lake and get them. Of course the exertion would be a little hard but then we would save a long day when such a high price for his shrimps, which we are sure a little boy must have caught out of this lake grails. The streets of the city are wide and are bordered by mountain streams. One of the most famous buildings in the world is the Mormon Temple at Salt Lake City*. The Tabernacle is also interesting as well as the Bee Hive. We eyed with a deal of curiosity the various homes that the leader had built for his many wives. The Temple was in course of construction for four years. Seated in the Tabernacle, I heard the most expensive pipe organ in the world played. It is played every day at noon. Words can not express the sensations that passed over me as I eniel to the beautiful tones as they filled this great building which has a seating capacity of 10,000. The Mormon University is built on the top of a Mountain. The longest bridge in the world is the one built over the lake from Salt Lake City to Ogden. This bridge was viewed with much interest. We did not see inside the Mormon Temple, the Mormons are allowed inside this Temple. From Salt Lake City we passed through the desert. For twelve solid hot thirsty hours we saw nothing but cactus and sage bushes. At one time it was so hot we could scarcely breathe. When we were just as hot as we could be we found that the water on the train was out. When it seemed that we could stand it no longer we rode into San Bernardino, which appeared to us as an oasis in the desert. The Santa Fe was building a beautiful station at this place. Miss Mause Roberts, well and favorably known in this city, is reported to be engaged. This information comes right from the Windy City and very authentic and reliable sources. Rumor has it that Miss Roberts is to be married to Albert George one of Chicago's best known attorneys at law and that the wedding is to take place real soon. Some have it in the early spring, while others put it at Easter. But it is not exactly known just what the date will be, but the school in which she being a student at Walden University for several years, after which she taught at Jackson, Tenn., but it was in this city that she made such a host of friends. WEDDING QUITE A SURPRISE On Sunday night, Jan. 7, 1948, a large number of friends were invited to a reception at the residence of Mrs. Cornelia E. Price, 1014 11th avenue, N. Among the guests was the Rev. C. H. Clark, which looked suspicious. At 8:15 every one present noticed Mr. James Ewing enter a side door, Mrs. Cornelia E. Price enter another and Rev. C. H. Clark arise. At this juncture Mr. James Ewing and Mrs. Cornelia E. Price were joined in the holy bonds of matrimony by the Rev. Clark, unaided to the surprise of those present. This wedding was one of the most enjoyable of the season as a wife with a large number of friends. The bride is one of Nasville's leading young widows and the groom one of Nashville's most popular young men. We hope them a long and prosperous life on the sea of matrimony. PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. The mid-winter examinations at this popular colored school have begun. During the incoming week, the following schedule of examination will be carried out: On Monday all pupils will be examined in Science. On Tuesday in Latin on Wednesday in History and Thursday in Mathematics. The ordeal of an examination is recarded by many pupils, especially those of a nervous temperament, with some degree of fear and anxiety. Sometimes the brightest pupils intellectually fall down in an examination, to the surprise of their teachers and fellow-students. For this reason it is sometimes argued that a test on the knowledge of a pupil. There is no doubt, however, that there is a real educative value in examinations, and the majority of educators still favor them. SERVICE FLAG FOR PEARL Within a few days, visitors who may call at this school, will find hanging over the rostrum a service tag in honor of the Pearl High graduates and under-grauas es who have answered the call of their country to fight in the great European war against the Triple Alliance. Dr. F. G. South, the principal, has been collecting the names of former students who are now in camp, and up-to-date has secured a list of eighteen names. This list comprises thirteen graduates and five former students. The graduated list headed by Lieut. H. A. Cameron is as follows: Lieut. H. A. Cameron. Lieut. J. L. Leach of the Medical Reserve Corps. Noah Ackley, Benjamin Saterfield, Win Watkins, Lewis Curren, Bax or Scruggs, Richard Walker, Williana Ande son, Olive Williams, Herbert Allison, Win Rose and Dr. R. L. Johnson. The under-graduate list includes Ernest Turner, Amos Allison, Richard Chrismon, Meredith Ferguson, Lloyd Hockett. The flag will be made in the Dromedic Art Department under the supervision of the director, Miss Ethel Jordan. HIGH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT A MIDDLE TENNESSEE TEACH The Executive Committee of the Middle Tennessee Teachers' Association has endorsed the action of Prof. J. C. McMeadan in named Prof. F. G. Smith, the principal of Pearl High School, to take charge of the High School Department at the com in session. The meetings will be held March 28, 29 and 30, in the auditorium of the new building. Great interest is being manifested in the coming meeting, and despite war conditions, a large body of teachers is expected. NO SHRORTHAND OR TYPEWRIT ING FOR PEARL HIGH. Dr. K. G. Smith, the principal called on Superintendent J. J. Keyes, the past week, seeking to have the high School course of study expanded by the introduction of a business course in the school. The principal, who is a product of the south, understands the southern problem. As a rule, he is very skillful in handling the situation and usually lands what he goes after. In this case, however, he was disappointed. The present financial condition of the Board of Education will not justify an extra outlay of money at this time. There is no doubt, however, that a shorthand and typewriting course for colored high school pupils is badly needed, and if introduced would soon become one of the most important schools in the past, colored children wishing this kind of education have been compelled to go to Chicago or Detroit to get it. Prof. Smith says that though he failed in his efforts, the interview terminated pleasantly. POOR ATTENDANCE AT PEARL HIGH. On account of the extreme cold weather, the attendance at this school will be limited. HAD ACHING BACK Couldn't SLEEP AT NIGHT All Right Now The Nashville globe is in receipt of the following letter from Mr. James Kilgore, so Pittsburg, Tenn., which we cheerfully print: South Pittsburg, Tenn., January 6th "Editor Nashville Globe - DEAR Mr. I have been sufferer with an aching back, couldn't hardly sleep at night. As a constant reader of your paper I read the advertisement of Impeo Liniment which impressed me very much. I wrote you as you know Ioseod me three bottles using your proud hand to saffronify the Liniment accordion to directions that I am all right now, I consider Impeo a great Liniment. Very resp., James Kilgore, poor. The long distances that some of the pupils have to come to reach the school, the fact that the car line is four blocks away from the school have been more than some parents would let their children attempt during such extreme and unmarrieded weather. Out of an enrollment of about 1,000, there were present on Monday only 666 and on Tuesday 537. LIEUT. CAMERON TO BE REMEMBERED. The pupils of the Science Department who were taught by Prof. H. A. Cameron met in room 7 on Monday to complete arrangements for sending him a military sweater before his departure for France. Miss Edmonia White, who does expert work with the pupils, taught the pupils furnishing the material. This was a spontaneous movement on the part of the science pupils to let their former teacher know that they still hold him in memory. EXEMPTIONS IN MATHEMATICS FALL TERM. 1917-18. 11.A. 1.

Olive Baptist church Sunday morning. Notwithstanding the inclement weather nearly one hundred persons were present at Sunday school, which was very interesting. The officers were announced for the present year and the Superintendent has surrounded himself with a able corps of workers. Each department has grown and under the new regime there is evidence of a large and broad At the eleven o'clock hour the pastor, Rev. C. H. Clark preached from the text, "And the whole city was at the door." The discourse was a solemn warning to Christians to so live that their lives may bring others to the house of the Lord. The congregation recited the Twenty third Psalm led by Prof. Shipp. At the conclusion of the divine service Dr. Clark announced that Brother Hughley had resigned as deacon, Mr. E. W.

Olive Baptist Church as well as the hundreds of friends and acquaintances of the family, when it became known Wednesday morning that Bro. J. S. Gibbs, senior deacon of the Mt. Olive Baptist church had been called forward. The oolong house of Bro. Gibbs was so sudden that it was home before the news could reach the many members of the church and friends of the family. On Tuesday morning he went to his work, as usual. At 12 o'clock he returned home and was taken viiily ill. He was rushed to the Cottage Hospital on Cedar street where Dr. McCillan as a last resort to sus face the opened the abdomen. The condition was devised for further warrant the advisability of further procedure so the abdomen was closed at 10:45. he breathed his last. Mr. Gibbs was very prominent in religious fraternal and financial circles. He was a stalwart pillow in the Mt. Olive Baptist church and fought in the battles of the church with the same courage with which he fought in the Confederate army. He was an ex soldier. He was a member of the Odd Fellows, K. of P, and a 32nd degree mason. On Monday night he attended the stockholders meeting of the One Cent Saving Bank. He was a member of the Board of Directors and was very much interested in the welfare of this institution. Mr. Gibbs leaves a large family of children and grand children and hundreds of friends and relatives to mourn his loss. "The recent deaths that have occurred among the well known citizens of Nashville are but a reminder that the old guards are passing to the final reward," declared one of Nashville's oldest citizens when he learned of the death of Deacon J. S. Gibbs, which occurred Tuesday night. Deacon Gibbs, as he was known throughout the city, was perhaps one of the most familiar characters of Nashville, a venera of the civil war, pensioner and an active member in all of the well known fraternities. In addition to this, and regarded by many as the most important of his work, was the fact that he was an active Christian and a church worker. His death following close upon the beaks of one of his close associates and life-long friends, is attributed by many to have been caused over the fact that he brooded much be cause of the illness and had death of this friend. Deacon Gibbs was one of the founders of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church where he has served continuously on the board. He was an active Sunday school worker, and was a member of the church, and was well and favourably known by every business man in the business section of Nashville.

ROBINSON, OF THE KNOXVILLE DISTRICT A. M. E. CHURCH TO SECRETARY McAdoo, AGAINST JIM CROW CARS IN THE SOUTH. Hon, Wm, G, McAdoo, Secretary of Treasury, and Director General of Rail Roads. Your selection by President Wilson to be Director General of Rail Roads (in the light of all your actions since being in the president's cabinet) is one of the best appointments of any kind made by Mr. Wilson since he became president. When you put in operation the Liberty Loan Bond, you urged and allowed all classes of American citizens to subscribe for and buy these bonds. During your tours of the country, you addressed both white and Negro citizens in interest of the sale of Liberty bonds, and Negroes everywhere purchased bonds thus showing their patriotism and loyalty for the country. As I do, the records at Washington, as you know show that the Negro is loyal, patriotic, and has gone as far for the perpetuity of the nation and uphold the Stars and Stripes as any class of citizens anywhere to be found in the United States. Right now, at the army camps, and cantonments where our soldieries are in training, are thousands of young Negro men, the Flower of our homes, and the Pride of our hearts; and they are anxious to go to the front and stand on the fireline, and bare their breasts to the enemy and do their part in helping to make the world safe for Democracy. We, who are giving up our sons, and doing so willingly, (my only son is now in camp) are wondering will the Democracy for which we are fighting be real Democracy? Democracy for all the people? For years, the Negro has had to stand all sorts and kinds of filth and be subjected to all manner of blemishes or the raid of the enemy in real Democracy. The Supreme Court of the United States has held heretofore, that nothing could be done to prevent these inhuman treatments, by the Washington government because of power inherent in the states under what is termed State rights. Now that the Rail Roads are under the Supervision of the United States government in, I want to ask you, will it be your policy to continue to let the unjust discrimination stand, and let us be the subject of discrimination by the Government for which our boys are training to give up their lives to protect? Or will you let the strong arm of the Government remedy these awful wrongs? It is needless for me to try to tell you in detail of the unjust and inefficient treatment that Negroes receive at the hands of the railroads in the South. It is unnecessary for me to describe the horrific methods resorted to, for the purpose of humiliating the Negro on the trains and at rail road stations. To do so, would show a class of barbarism that seems impossible in a civilized country. Now that the Secretary of War, Mr. Baker is seeing to it that all soldiers, without regard to race or color receive the same treatment; now that President Wilson is seeing to it, that all who fight in this war, shall be accorded the same treatment, may it not now fall to your lot to releem the South from this dark blot, and see to it that this section of our beloved country act the truth in the carrying out of the laws which their law makers placed on the statute books by seeing that Equal accomodations are given to all who travel on the rail roads? You are a Southernner, and I am writing this letter in your once home town. Your record for Fair play, and a Square deal for all is established here. Thousands, of Negroes throughout the country, are now looking to you to undo a great wrong that has been done to them, and we believe you will do so. We believe you will work with us to institution of the United States, so regulate the Rail Roads operating in the South, so that Negro Women, and men who must travel and pay their fare be given human treatment, and decent accommodations—accommodations in harmony with our patriotism, and in harmony with the statutes which pursuits to give "Equal comfort, if not the eradication and abolition of those notorious and unconstitutional acts which discriminate against a helpless but patriotic, suffering and Country boy." I most respectfully wish to subcribe myself. [RVJ. J. G. ROBINSON, Presiding Elder, Knoxville, District, A. M. E. Church, 330, Temperance St. Knoxville, Tenn.

PEARL HIGH NOTES The pupils of this school have returned to their studies with enthusiasm, after enjoying the pleasures of the holiday season. Examination will begin next in the vocational subjects and the academic examination will follow in the week succeeding. This may account for the diligence with which students have pursued their studies since the Christmas vacation. The ambition of each one now seems to be to get exempt from examination in at least a part of the subjects. Some of the more faithful and brilliant ones hope to get exempt in all of the branches. A SERVICE FLAG FOR PEARL Dr. F. G. Smith, the principal, is planning to hang a service flag over the rostrum for the Pearl High Graduates who have answered the call of their country in the great European war.

UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINISTRATION. Washington, Jan. 10, 1918.—The Sunflower State Agricultural Association, composed of the colored farmers of Kansas, held a meeting recently in Topeka Industrial and Educational Institute, Topeka, Kansas, and by unanimous vote declared support to the United States Food Administration, urging full co-operation of the Kansas farmers and other members of the race to the Government in its gigantic task of fighting for world-wide freedom. President William R. Carter of the Association told the farmers that it was their task to help to win the war. We are a part of this great country. We are a part of this great country it is up to us to respond to every call made by our President through any department of the Government. All the world insists that food must play an important and essential part. "Since it is food, then food we are going to have, and the farmers of Kansas intend to see that it is furnished. These young men are going into the fields—those who do not go into the trenches—and become producers as well as consumers. They will produce more than they consume, for they realize that there are our sons and brothers in the trenches, on the battle-fields who must be fed." Poultry, farm and industrial display attracted the attention of many who attended the conference. Women showed by demonstrations how they could help win the war, and how easy it is to observe the meatless and wheatless days and still remain happy. "Poultry raising must be given special attention this spring," declared J. G. Glover, the "Negro Potato King," from Edwardsville, Kansas, "because poultry and eggs must to a considerable degree take the place of meat on meatless days. There is a great demand for poultry at present, and it will be still greater in the future." *** Uncle Sam is to-day the quartermaster of a hungry world. He is playing the game squarely and counts on you to do the same. The American people cannot expect more than their share of the food supply, which for 1915 does not measure up to expectations. It is now time for every American to get these facts by heart. In order that you may know the facts, the United States Food Administration from time to time issues statements and announcements which are printed in the newspapers for the information of the American people. The Food Administration and Herbert Hoover in giving you the facts of the food situation, believe that you have the courage to face the truth and adjust your household to new war situations. As the war goes on and the need becomes greater, we Americans must be ready for greater sacrifices. More than ten million families have pledged themselves to help make the food go round. This pledge, unless we interpret patriotism as mere lip loyalty and insincere affection, is a pledge to service as real as that of the soldier. The pledge card is not a mere scrap of paper, but the pledge of the American woman to stand by the declaration of war. Men, help the women. Remember the gospel of the clean plate, the serving of small portions, the purchase of less supplies. HOARDING: Any purpose in the United States who buys more foodstuffs or fuel than he customarily keeps at home in peace times is defeating the government in its purpose to secure a just distribution of food and fuel and in its great endeavors to reduce prices. The hoarding of food or fuel in any place is not a crime, is the Government is protecting the food supply of our people, but it is selfish and is a cause of high prices. Such actions multiplied by thousands increase the demands upon our railways for cars and already, because of our military demands, it is with extreme difficulty we can now move the necessary food to markets. *** Food has now taken a dominant position in the war, and we must ask the American people to sacrifice far more than was at first thought necessary. We have exported the whole of the surplus or the wheat from this harvest after reserving ourselfs for the purposes for our national consumption of seed and flour until the next harvest. In other words, every grain of wheat or its products that our associates in this war receive from the United States from now on will be exactly the amount which our people have saved each month on their behalf. *** Our associates in this war ask today for 25 per cent. more meat and fats than we consider our own production with them without trenching on our own supplies, or, on the other hand, unless we consume less. --- Every particle of diminished consumption by the American people is one particle more for the soldiers, men, women and children of our associates in this war and for the starving people in other countries.

It is a matter for the conscientious consideration of every individual that he or she should eat only that which is necessary to maintain bodily health and strength and unselfish use of which those foodstuffs use or which requires international necessities. In this winter of 1918 lies the period when there will be teated in this great free country of ours the question as to whether or not our people are capable of voluntary individual self-sacrifice to save the world. * * * Specially Prepared for the Negro To the Editor:—We trust that you are receiving your cuts. The responses to the letter asking that the papers render this service was very gratifying. I know the editor has realized only too well that we are at war. Even people complain that they cannot get this or that, you can be sure that they do not know the conflicting demands of the times. Wake them up, men! Do not forget that there is a most scientific and efficient German propaganda being carried on all over this country against the conservation, substitution and increased products of food. He who does not carry out the wishes of our Government to the best of his ability, even at a real sacrifice, is helping the Germans. He who helps the Germans is an enemy to our country. A. U. CRAIG. The story is often told that John D. Rocketler, once when addressing an audience, advised them "to watch the pennies, the dollars will take care of themselves." Aptly expressed and aptly proven in his case and none of us can lose anything by heeding the announcement. It is interesting, humorous but more often pathetic to the grocer's or butcher's place of business at times and listen to the purchases that are made by women and children of our race. An occurrence happened recently in which I was directly involved and I feel that it will be of interest to our many readers and possibly help a bit toward enlightening some of our recent arrivals. Butter was selling at 48 cents a pound, eggs at 45 cents a dozen and ham at 38 cents a dozen. A robust young woman came in the store and stood beside me, in the store and stood beside me, in the Jewish clerk, in an abrupt way, inquired her "Give me 15 cents worth of butter, twenty cents worth of eggs and a slice of ham." She stated her order in a stolical way and had never inquired the price of a single article. I watched the scales carefully and the clerk gave her one-fourth of a pound of butter for 15 cents and 5 eggs for 20 cents, and observing that she seemed perfectly satisfied with her purchase, I ventured: "At this rate of reckoning you have some pennies change coming," and she smiled and said: "O, that is all right for pennies are bad luck to me anyway." I am not well versed in the symbols of fortunes, and am at a loss to understand her meaning, but there are others who are not averse to taking pennies and while we are combating with the high cost of living we should remember the old adage, "A penny saved is a penny." If every woman or housewife would attend personally to her own marketing instead of sending children, or telephone to the store and inquire the price of things and learn to read the scales, then she will have the kind of food. If each of us were as unconcerned with the party referred to above and allow the grocer 3 to 4 hours clear profit on our purchases, each night he will be individually so much richer and we collectively so much poorer. Thrift, economy and good common sense are three good weapons with which to fight life's battle. If by our own supermarket our shopping would make the tradespeople realise they would soon come to the conclusion that we must have our money's worth, for "to the victor be long the spoils."

A YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL LIFE CLOSED Mt. Juliet, Tenn., Jan. 11, 18 Quite a gloom of sadness was spread over Bryants Grove community on Monday morning, December 10th at 3 minutes of 1 o'clock, when the Almighty God saw fit to call from labor to reward and bring to a close the young and beautiful life of James F. Bryant at the age of 20 years, this lovable child was born, September 6, 1897 at Bryant Grove and was always an obedient faithful, affectionate and truthful son until death, gathering friends wherever he went. At the age of 12 years he professed a love under the Rev. J. A. Brown, at which the officer of Bryant Grove Baptist church, child though he was, he dearly loved and held up for his pastor, and did whatever his little hands found to do. Next Rev. A. C. Holder became pastor and saw in the boy a usefulness and willingness to work for the Master, to which he gave a helping hand in pushing the child forward. The boy launched out boldly and became one of the leaders of Bryant Grove both in church and Sunday school and society, always ready, willing and faithful to whatever was signed to his hands to do, and was ever forward for the advancement of his church, Sunday school, his lodge and community. For the last 2 years he held the office in the lodge of the church and Sisters of Unity as Grand Chancellor, was always at his post of all duty and intelligence. He loved his lodge, and of all, and by the aid of a devoted and faithful mother and father, this young man had started one of the most beautiful and useful lives ever witnessed in the community. Fond hopes was in the mother and many friends hearts watching the advancement of the dear son and it seems hard indeed that he should not be spared to do the great work for the Master to which he was striving and looking forward to, and yet we know the Lord knows best and doeth all things well for 4 months he bore his sickness with patience and cheerfulness hiding his misery and trying to cheer, and as ever make his mother happy, and prayed asking the Almighty God to harden up, Jesus only knows how hard to up such an affectionate companion to the son and friend a precious one friend and gone a voice we loved is stilled a place is vacant in our home which never, no never can be filled. Sleep on dear Angel, take the rest through you left broken hearts. Heaven is blest. O how mother misses you while you soar on high, but thank NATIONAL BAPTIST PUBLISHING BOARD NASHVILLE. TENN. UNDER THE MANAGEMENT OF REV. R. H. BOYD, D. D., SECRETARY AND FOUNDER. DOING A WONDERFUL WORK. --- More than twenty thousand Sunday schools, located in every portion of the United States, supported by their churches under the denominational and race-loving pastors have, so to speak, with one accord, been favored with orthodox denominational literature from the only Negro Baptist printing. Publishing and Book Binding establishment in the United States. The National Baptist Publishing Board's plant, located at Nashville, valued at over $350,000.00, has demonstrated the confluence of the Negroes of the United States. It means of furnishing employment to more than one hundred and fifty members of the race. It produces its own literature from the printers' devil work up to the editor's desk. The Negroes in this plant can operate and manipulate the most delicate an intricate piece of machinery that has been thrown upon the market. Four mammoth Mergenthaler Linotype machines, nine printing presses, one of them with a capacity of over 10,000 quarters an hour, with every conceivable kind of book binding machinery, makes it possible for this plant to give the Negroes anything in the form of a book from a manuscript of a Bible or a carding card to an encyclopedia. In the last report of the secretary of that institution, which was read before the National Baptist Convention that hold its session in this city, they showed that the operation of the plant has been marvelous, that the results obtained have far exceeded the most exaggerated predictions. More perhaps than any other one THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN REV. R. H. BOYD, D. D., LL. D., Founder and Secretary National Baptist Publishing Board, Nashville, Tenn. --- agency contributing to the plant's success has been the guiding hand of the venerable secretary, the Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., who is a product of the days of slavery. He has been often designated as "the giant oak in the forest." "A Moses of his denomination," and a boon companion and a believer in the "Little R. F. D. and Unknown Baptist Preacher." His "Boyd's Pastors' Guide," that was adopted by the National Baptist Conference, met in Richmond, Va., some years ago in the Church Record Roll and Minute Book," are reported to be the most extensively used publications of a standard make in the denomination. While pure Baptist literature, set in type by Negroes, printed on presses operated by Negroes, folded, stitched and trimmed in a book binding plant operated by Negroes; written, edited, criticized and corrected by a competent force of Negro editors and proofreaders, has left no question of the doubt but that he questioned the boy's ability to produce his own literature. The denomination, irrespective of their personal feelings has with one accord, stood up for and is sending their patronage to Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, at Nashville, claiming as they do, "That he brought something to pass, we will stand by the man and the institution that has succeeded in giving to the race and the denomination a plant worth the while, one that would children enjoy the same time, gives to our schools a Baptist literature produced by their own people." Characterized by the great supporters of the institution have been the so-called "R. F. D. preachers," and the "Little Unknown Baptists." The recent addition to the National Baptist Publishing House plant at Nashville, in the form of new, modern, up-to-date printing machinery, has also put them in the fore-front of all the race producers. During the past year they have turned out two of the largest jobs ever handled by a Negro Printing establishment. One of the books that was run on the printing presses and bound in this institution, was nearly 1200 pages. The late Dr. Booker T. Washington was one of its staunch supporters, and delighted on more than one occasion to refer to the success of God we shall meet you by and by. We wish to express our thanks to the many friends both colored and white for their kindness during the illness of our dear son and the many words and letters of sympathy in our bereavement and the beautiful floral offering.

THEATRICALS 8 It is reported that Mr S. H. Dudley will retire at the end of this season and devote all of his time to his business interest which includes a couple of (small) theatres and the Dudley Vaudeville Circuit, to which we can also insert the word (small). However, there is no reason why it should remain small (his theatres or his premises) if Mr Dudley his promise and devotes all of his time to his business. The Dudley Circuit is the only circuit owned by a race man, and while it does not in any way compare with the Klein time, we believe with Mr. Dudley's personal attention it can be made as strong in its territory as the Klein time as in the west. At present Mr. Klein can give a good act twelve weeks and a good stock company sixteen weeks consecutive work. His theatres pay bigger salaries and his audience with very few exceptions, and as a result, he controls a better grade of acts and the theatres get better shows. Mr. Dudley's office (while he is away with the Dave Marianon show) is in the hands of a very capable young lady, Miss Des Darnettie. She is splendid, but the requirements of such an enterprise call for a master hand, for B. F. Keth never had the patience that contour this young woman. With about eight weeks to route an act over, with low calories, managers who will not stand behind contracts and will cancel a bill at the last minute, if they can secure another attraction cheaper and commissions unpaid.

The Stockholders of the Peoples Savings Bank and Trust Company held their annual meeting at the bank on Wednesday night, January 9th. President J. B. Singleton, who is now serving the board, term, called the meeting order and in a well-worded address reviewed the work of Nashville's youngest financial institution. In addressing the stockholders he paid special attention to the wonderful growth of the institution. This was followed by the report of Mr. W. D. Hawkins, the cashier, who has been regarded as the most active one of the officials in the institution, having started with it at the very beginning. At the roll call, it was shown that a majority of the stock was present and represented and business was at once taken up. A significant statement by Cashier Hawkins in his address to the stockholders was "in proportion as the Negro people become acquainted with W. D. HAWKINS. Cashier People's Savings Bank and Trust Company. W. D. HAWKINS, Cashier People's Savings Bank and Trust Company. the philosophy of building well cor- pilation of great magnitude, in such proportion will large industries of every kind be established and main- tained by the race." As a business, the report said, the People's Saving Bank and Trust公司 has had its share of advantages and disadvantages. A steady stream of customers is always waiting to receive the polite service, and upon the operation of such service hangs the weight of $30,000 advancement in ass- ets and resources since October, 1913. The cashier's report also stated that, while some optimists believe the end of the war is in sight, still there are reasons why the bank officials should exercise great care and guard well the reserve. Among these are the uncertainty of war, the exodus of the Negro, from Nashville and the e en r- ut as r. en of ws re he le, and po, hn 's ck.

The bank has completed the payment on its present location and another timely step was the purchase of a modern diemol Manganese time lock screen door safe, which is a credit to any bank in Nashville. Other improvements contemplated for this year include the general remodeling of the entire building and also the addition of new and modern furniture and fixtures. Most of the success of the institution financially has been credited to the cashier, who has worked hard to build up the bank financially since its organization. Only two changes were made in the personnel of the bank's officials at the annual meeting. Dr. F. A. Stewart was elected as first vice-president by the directors, and the stockholders in their meeting chose I. L. Moore, Sr., a director to succeed the late W. T. Hightower. The officers are: J. B. Bingleton, president; F. A. Stewart, I. L. Moore and R. E. Battle, I. L. Moore and R. E. Battle, vice-presidents; W. D. Hawkins, cashier, A. M. Townsend, auditor, James Bumpas attorney, and T. Clay Moore, manager of the real estate department. The directors are: J. B. Singleton, Jas. Bumpas, S. P. Harris, F. A. Stewart, W. D. Hawkins, R. E. Battle, G. E. Haynes, William Haynes, J. T.

This year our Board has taken timely steps, placing a modern Diebold Manganese Time Lock Screw Door Safe which is a credit to any Bank in the State. We would like to have you see this magnificent purchase before leaving to night. This is the index of what your wide awake-Directors and Executive Committee will do as prosperity dawns. CASH. Our Cash has been above the average during the entire year. CAPITAL STOCK Here, we wish we could dwell until we might impress on you the very great importance of buying the Stock of the Bank. The money invested in Stock is the back-bone of the Bank. We can't have the kind of Bank that you really want until you pay up the CAPITAL STOCK. Sell some of your old rundown Real Estate and put it into your bank account. You can get it more than many make off of their Real Estate. If you have in mind to buy or invest in a new piece of Real Estate, forego that and put the same amount of money into CAPITAL STOCK. We need all the Stock paid up. But less than $2000, paid up should make us all ashamed. This is or should be a serious question to greet Stock in your bank. If you want them to join Loyce, just to see what they do. Buy Stock as business and you will feel it for the good of all concerned. DISCOUNTED NOTES Through your Discounted Notes, the Bank is run largely. Help us to get a high class of depositors and you will increase the standard of our loan market. If we have some Notes which are hard to collect, it is more or less traceable to the character of our loan market. Promptness to look after obligations must be taught. Stockholders must set the example. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO ME. Is the often repeated expression, Many may ask, "Why should I work so hard for the Bank; I don't get any thing but a little old dividend." It means this to you: This is your Bank, owner in proportion as you have shares. You have an interest in the undivided profits of the Bank; it den rive for was the Revi ing the fiel pre means that you are fostering an enterprise to help yourself and your community to a higher plane in civilized life. We had last year a semi-annual meeting of the Stockholders to plan for our Annual celebration in October which was a great success as compared with last year. Our many friends came to us. Many new accounts, then, many followed. Let it be understood when we announced a demon station, it will be all we say; perhaps more. No fake. Your Bank officers do not engage in false advertisements. We desired to reach $1,000,000.00, when we balanced at $72,000.00, we prophesied that to reach $100,000.00 this year, we have reach between $1 and $85,000.00. Let the God of war cease to hurl his fiery darts and we will cross the coveted mark of our ambition. If we would keep us this progress all, must co-operate all the time, day or night, cold or hot, selfishly co operate. The man or woman who cares for himself brings something to pass. I wish to say that your Executive Committee is prompt, careful, painstaking and deliberate in handling your business. Separately and collectively, I feel their personal influence and contact as my body guard and personal advisor. The President has given more attention to the Bank this year than ever before.

(Continued from Page 1.) a better day for the church people as well as a better day for God's ministers and servants. Take the Sundays for the past six weeks, most of the ministers who are dependent upon their salaries are compelled to sacrifice. They have had very little church services; there is no treasury upon which they can draw; so as a result unlike the men in the profession or the laboring man, they have had no pay day. As a rule with our people when they have a rally or a big financial effort, if it rains or snows and they happen not to be present at church, they feel that their obligations have been discharged and their accounts balanced by their absence. "One of the main objects of the Sunday school Congress forces has been to teach the Sunday school children that the Lord expects, and will accept nothing more than a full discharge of the individual's duty. Tithing, if taught to the child, means a stronger and a more potent factor in the development of our church in the future. Hence, I would ask that ministers join in this movement that is calculated to build up the churches first, spiritually, as we put child evangelism first; and secondly, numerically, then the other things will be added accordingly." being put forth to make the night services of the church a great power for good. --- ICE!
