MESSAGE FROM MEMBER OF 10th
CALVARY—MANY INTERESTED
TED IN MOVEMENT—HAND
SOME PRIZE TO BE AWARDED
The extension of the time agreed upon for the Colored "Y" membership campaign, expired April 1st. Under date of March 28th, a few days of the close, I. L. Moore, Jr., a member of the 10th Cavalry, sends his application for renewal of his membership. Mr. Moore's membership card was sent immediately to the Tenth Cavalry, Fort Huachua, Ariz. In his letter to his mother the following striking comment was noted: "Tell papa to see Mr. Wm. Crawford, give him my love and tell him I want a membership card in the Y. M. C. A. The one I had expired. Whatever costs, mother, you pay it * * * * It is very much disappointed I did not get to go to France. I wish I was there in the thickest of the fight. I am not afraid to take my chances with other soldiers."
His 1918 membership card was forwarded immediately. Mr. Moore is the son of Col. I. L. Moore, a prominent real estate man of this city, and a brother of T. C. Moore, a real estate dealer. Young Moore has been a member of the Association for some time. He made a liberal subscription to the 1914 Colored "Y" Building Fund campaign, which was promptly. The record shows that he immediately made another similar subscription which was promptly met. It seems that he is not a member of the church, but he is interested in the work of the Young Men's Christian Association.
Upon close investigation, it appears that the workers in the campaign are practically unanimous in reporting that despite the fact they did not meet with over generous responses, practically every man approached maintains a most cordial attitude toward the Association, and in many cases pledged themselves to take out a membership at an early date. It is the belief of those who are interested in the development of the Association work, and who study carefully the conditions confronted by the movement, that with the proper co-operation of those who have been from the beginning and persistent in the Colored Y. M. C. A work will soon become a permanent fixture in the community life of this city. Already meetings of various kinds such as Thrift Samp meetings, Workmen's Clubs, Sundry, School Boards, Examining Boards and Women's clubs average anywhere from two to half dozen a week. It may be clear to all that there is a great need for just such an institution as the "Y," and that a large membership is a prime requisite for making its place secure.
The prizes—$15 in gold by the Retail Merchant's Association; solid gold ring by Calhoun Jewelry Company; unique lunch box by Hermitage Hardware Co., are all in readiness for the winners. The men have worked hard and the Committee of agreement is highly gratified that they have a few prizes to give to those who have done exceptionally good work. The hours they have been delayed and the request from a good many have come in that the prizes not be awarded until a little later in the month.
The Committee of Management attests its next meeting will consult the membership list with the hope of finding suitable committeemen for the following standing committees: Business Committee, Finance, Religious Work, Cafeteria, House, Athletic, Social and Ministerial Co-operative Committee. With a fairly good membership and almost a year's experience upon it, it seems that the Association movement for colored men and boys upon the city of Nashville has a mighty bright outlook. The white and colored friends, whose subscriptions and donations, made the purchase of the building, must continue their payments on unpaid subscriptions or the Association's present home will be greatly endangered. The Committee of Management has made repeated appeals to responsible citizens whose pledges have long since been due. It must be clear to all that the money derived from the room rent, membership and Cafeteria hardly makes it possible to take care of the maintenance. Don't be a slacker.
MISS NANIE BURROUGHS SPEAKS
On Sunday afternoon and Sunday night of last week Miss Nannie H. Burroughs og Washington, D. C., addressed two audiences in the city. She came here upon special invitation of some of the Baptist women who took advantage of her being in these parts to have Nashville hear and see what the Baptist people regard as one of the leading platform speakers and packers in our denomination. The first services were held at the First Baptist Church, Eight Ave., N. pastored by Rev. E. H. McDowell, D. D., who recently took charge of the church coming here from Toronto, aCnada while the second services were held at the First Baptist Church East Nashville, pastored by Rev. W. S. Ellington, D. D.
The Sunday night audience and meeting were the climax of the said efforts. The welcome address delivered by Mrs. Evans the wife of the pastor of the Slyvan Street Baptist Church and the introduction by Mrs. Ellington, the wife of the pastor of the First Baptist Church East Nashville, only gave a taste of what was to come. Miss Burroughs spoke for an hour Sunday night, drawing excellent pictures of the future of the Negro women, but did not fail to pay her respect to the men. The impressions left on the city as the result of these two meetings are said by the

They were joined in Cincinnati by Mrs. L. B. Fouse, the chairman of the National Baptist Galedda Department who represents the denomination in the Council in the adult department. While they are in Cincinnati attending these meetings it has been learned that two rousing night meetings among the Baptist forces of Cincinnati have been arranged for them.

D., and his people of the First Baptist Church, Walnut Hills will have a mass meeting at which there will be representatives from the various churches and on Thursday night, they are to be at the Mound Street Church, the Rev.

D., the president of the conference that will attend a large attendance and that the entire city is looking forward to their coming. Much importance is attached to the annual meeting of the Sunday School Council of Evangelical Denominational Publishers that makes a special study of conditions affecting the religious Sunday School publishers, and the National Baptist Publishing Board is the only publish House among the Negroes in the United States holding membership in the Association. They are entitled to six representatives, one from each department.
HOSPITALITY WORK FOR COLOR- ED PEOPLE.
Hampton, Va.—Mrs. George J. Davis, of Hampton Institute, who is president of the Colored Soldier's Hospitality House, reports that the welcome hospitality room in Jerusalem Hall. Hampton, which was opened on February 17 through the untiring work of a few women, is attracting many of the boys in khaki. The soldier boys greatly enjoy having a homelike meeting place, where, on one afternoon each week, they receive a courteous reception and refreshment. Mrs. Davis, is describing the beginnings of this greatly needed work, recently said:
GETTING UNDER WAY
"Through all the winter—ever since people have all been enthusiastic over war work—I have had the feeling that our colored women should be doing more than they have been doing to help our won soldier boys.
"At last I called on Mrs. Carrie Williams of Hampton, wife of Rev. J. C. Williams, who joined with me at once in trying to start a hospitality house. Together we saw a white real-estate agent, who said he would allow us to use Jerusalem Hall for the colored soldiers, free of charge.
"An executive committee of five was then formed at a meeting which was held in the home of Mrs. Thomas J. Howard. The following officers were also chosen: Mrs. George J. Davi, president; Mrs. Cash Fields Gay, Vice President; Mrs. Emma Dean, Treasurer; Mrs. Carrie Williams Secretary; Mrs. W. E. Atkins, Assistant Secretary.
ORGANIZED FOR RESULTS.
"Then, through the co-operation of the local ministers, notices were given in the churches that a special meeting of all women who were interested in the movement would be held in the home of Mrs. W. E. Atkinsvp the home of Mrs. W. E. Atkins. Twenty-eight women attended this meeting.
"The following committees were appointed: Entertainment, Mrs. W. T. B. Williams, Chairman, Mrs. Allen W. Washington, Chairman; Refreshment, Mrs. Wm. Walker, Chairman; and Decoration, Mrs. Mattie Robinson, Chairman. There were seven women on each committee. Women from the town of Hampton and Hampton Institute worked together."
WINNING SUPPORT.
The manager of a large hotel, seeing in a local newspaper an account of the colored soldiers' hospitality house, asked Mrs. Davis to let him know the details of this pioneer work. He gave the workers a table, some plates, some flage and fifty dollars in money. He commended the enterprising women and added:
"I recommend that you open the hospitality room for colored soldiers on Sunday and serve those men a hot drink and some refreshments. You will be serving God in doing this work."
A: MILITARY WEDDING
Chicago, Ill., Mar. 30, 1918.
Beautiful was the military wedding on Tuesday afternoon, March 19th, at 3 o'clock, when Dr. Orestes Blake Johnson and Miss Allie Maf Brown were united in holy matrimony by Rev. G. S. Smith. The wedding was only a family one with the exception of a few intimate friends of the bride and groom. The affair was carried out in strictly military style. Dr. Johnson is a First Lieutenant, being connected with the Dental Reserves. He finished Marhary Dental College in 1915, while Mrs. Johnson was a graduate of the Pearl High School in 1916 and had one year's experience in the public school of that city.
TEN YEARS OF ARDUOUS LABOR
PASTOR'S AID HONORS REV
...H. M. PURNS— EXCELLENT
PROGRAM RENDERD—PROM-
INENT MEN PRESENT.
As a fitting testimony of ten years of arduous labors, the Pastor's Aid Society of the Tabernacle Baptist Church gave a reception and banquet in honor of their pastor last Monday night. This Aid Society is presided over by Mrs. Famille Manns and has a splendid membership. The occasion was quite an affair and attracted a large attendance of some of Nashville's well known public-spirited people. Notwithstanding the inclement weather and the storm that was raging about 8 o'clock, by 9:30 o'clock an appreciative audience was held for the program and an arrangement for the Miss Ola Beach, who was mistress of ceremonies, presided. She told of the work of the various auxiliaries and organizations in the church and emphasized the cooperative spirit and the unanimity of purpose of all Tabernacle members, after which a solo was sung by Miss A. C. Martin. This was followed by a male quintette, composed of the Morton brothers. A paper was then written by the president, then the mistress of ceremonies which the mistress of ceremonies called for remarks from some of the visitors present. Those who spoke were Dr. J. H. Hale, Revs. A. W. Porter and R. H. Boyd. Among the visitors, aside from those who spoke were Mrs. J. H. Hale, Mrs. R. H. Bove and Henry A. Boyd. The committee of arrangements had made preparations to serve every member of the church and visitor. This committee was made up of Mrs. Minnle Half acre, Mrs. Bettle Dennis, Mrs. Pkins, Mrs. Samuella Shannon and Mr.ike Prince. At the conclusion of the program Rev. H. M. Burns made response to the work and helped to the work and the struggles that Tabernacle Baptist Church had undergone. He told to the small beginning and of the dark days that confronted him as a young licensed and ordained preacher and with some feeling he reviewed the obstacles that he was compelled to
REV. H. M. BURNS, D. D.
surrount, but closing it all and as a climax to it all he felt he was on the Lord's side. He declared that he had the best membership in Nashville and perhaps the most loyal. A summary of the work done is said by those informed to total an expenditure of over twenty thousand dollars. The membership boasts of a brick building comfortably furnished and modern pews, fine pulpit furniture and pastor's study, latest style lighting appliances, and located in a section of Nashville that makes it easily accessible from two car line. "We want it thoroughly understood that Tabernacle Baptist Church is to be found in the forefront of all that pertains to church and denominational life. We propose to have at least two delegates to leave Nashville to go to the church and send out young ministers. A former superintendent of this school is now pastor of one of the churches of Ohio. We have a young man belonging to this congregation who is to graduate from medicine and we want the people of Nashville to know more about Tabernacle," declared the pastor in his closing remarks. There was a splendid five course menu served during the evening.
MISSISSIPPI BAPTISTS MEET.
Hattiesburg, Miss.—Prominent Baptists and laymen from the various sections of the state are in session here this week. Among the distinguished visitors at the meeting is Rev. E. P. Jones, D. D., president of the National Baptist Convention, whose home is at Vicksburg. The purpose of the meeting was for the organization of a state convention to take in forty or fifty various associations in the different parts of the state. The committee in charge of the affair is E. Herrington, John F. Johnson, Dr. L. R. Young, Rev. I. W. Reynolds, Dr. J. Randall. The introductory sermon was preached by Rev. J. L. Hutchins, of Brookhaven. Prominent among the preachers here are Revs. J. W. Miller, M. A. Allen, L. C. Mcinnnis, J. H. Slims, R. H. Reel, I. W. Reynolds, S. S. Thomas, L. Johnson, G. B.

ROCK CITY BAPTIST CHURCH.
A very interesting program was rendered at the Rock City Baptist Church on Easter Sunday evening under the direction of Mrs. Rosie B. Jennings, Misses Mary E. Bowling and Eunice Johnson. The church was decorated with potted plants and
GREAT BAPTIST EDUCATIONAL RALLY EASTER FITTING-
Twenty-five Hundred Dollars The Goal—Other States in Similar Campaign—Enlightened Ministry.
Twenty-five Hundred Dollars will be raised by the Negro Baptists of Tennessee in an Educational campaign. This campaign will open immediately after the meeting of the Baptist Executive Board that has been called by President J. L. Harding, of the Baptist State Convention. This money, according to president Harding's statement, will be augmented by amounts to be raised by organizations of various states. The women of Texas, under Mrs. M. A. B. Fuller, have a campaign on for Ten Thousand Dollars, while the workers in Kentucky, Alabama, Florida and other states have similar campaigns. It was learned here this week, through leading Baptists, that all of these efforts financially, will go to relieve the obligations of the Educational Board of the Convention, in paying for the site known as Boscoel College. President Harding was very optimistic and felt that all Baptists of the state will join in this effort. "I do not feel that the sum of Twenty-five Hundred Dollars is what should be asked for this time, but as Baptists we do not ask for more than what is wanted—we could just as easily ask for Twenty Thousand Dollars, but Twenty-five Hundred Dollars is enough for the Baptists" declared the president who also sent out the following statement to his workers throughout the state: The Missionary Baptist State Convention of Tennessee is going on record to put into the National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary, several thousand dollars in the very near future. The Normal School will also be Hibernally supported with an enlightened convention we must have an enlightened ministry, Sunday school superintendents and teachers, B. Y. P. U. presidents and Missionary workers for Home and Foreign fields. Ever now, the Home demand is greater than the supply of preachers and trained workers. It is alarming to see the vacant fields and hear the Mace donian cries, with no response, saying, "Hear am I, send me."
God inspired the work, but the church must prepare the inspired ones for service. Every Baptist man and woman should rise to the dignity of the occasion, and save the Baptists of Tennessee from the stigma of ignorance and lethargy, put upon us by our materialistic incorporation brethren, who succeeded in incorporating the Negro Baptist denomination. (Tennessee in particular), out of Roger Williams University, not of management only, but of more than that, out of legal equity, and the same brethren have attempted to incorporate the entire Baptist denomination out of all the property held by the various Boards, and are now suing for their management. Their trick worked very well in Tennessee—they did not have to sue for the management because they made such a mess of the money we gave to help buy Roger Williams, we just let them have the whole thing, at least what there was of it. Unless we help build and maintain our Theological seminary, we will always be regarded as a lot of ignorant and non-progressive Baptists. The State Executive Board will meet on Friday 11 before the fourth Sunday in this month, April 26, 1918, at the 15th Avenue Baptist Church, Rev. A. W. Porter, pastor, at which time the great Theological Seminary and Educational drive will be launched—think and pray, and decide what part you, as an individual, will take, and what part you will try to influence others to take. Brothers and sisters let us pray and work.
J. L. HARDING, President, Missionary Baptist State Convention of Tennessee.
all of the selections of the evening were beautifully rendered but those that deserve special mention are Queen Esther and her attendants; The Lighted Cross; solo by Miss Carrie V. Wilson; cornet and saxophone selection by Messrs. Daniel Stafford and Eugene Stafford. The choir was at its best.
At the close of the program a few remarks were made by Mr. Charle Burns, who has been called by the government. The collection for the evening was $8.31.
ROBERTSON COUNTY DRAFTMEN
HONORED
The select men of Robertson County were given quite a patriotic reception by the ladies of the Springfield Relief Club Friday night, Mar. 29th. A select choir made up of members from all the church choirs of Springfield sang patriotic songs. Miss Delorah Jordan had charge of the music and presided at the piano. The following is the program: Song—Onward, Christian Soldiers Invocation—Rev. I. T. Jefferson, B.
Reading—The Colored Soldier
Address—Prof. Murry
In course of his address Prof. Murry said, "The cause for which we have met is a very important one. It is a grave moment in which there is required much thought and patriotism. We have assembled here to extend the hearty handshake to these boys who have answered the call of our country to prepare to enter this war. It is our duty to follow the flag wherever it waves over land or sea. We have never unfurled this flag for war except in the defence of justice and humanity and it has now been unfurled to show the world where we stand in this great war for liberty. We do not falter in the discharge of our duty, but we go willingly and bravely to the front, trusting God to give us the victory. He who places his life on the altar for the freedom and safety of others is the noblest of them all. We are living in a period when the inhumanity of man has
REV. EWD. P. JONES
Rev. E. P. Jones, D. D., president of the National Baptist Convention, passed through the city last week. He came direct to Nashville from Memphis in company with Dr. Boyd where they both had been in attendance at the peace conference. As soon as Rev. Jones arrived it was learned from him that he had issued a call at Alexandria, Louisiana, the week before, asking all the members of what he terms the Executive Board of his Convention to meet in Alexandria, June 12-17, during the session of the Sunday School Congress. "I called them to Alexandria, as an economical move because most of them generally attend the Sunday School Congress and we have been to so much expense this year and then this being war times, I felt that on railroad fare ought to serve both meetings. I am confident that a full attendance will be on hand. I have made a tour through the state of Louisiana and feel that, from my observation, the results justify me in making the statement that we will have a record-breaking attendance at Alexandria." President Jones was very optimistic over the outcome of the Memphis meeting. He felt that the Baptists everywhere were demanding "peace on the earth," and that they were pronounced in his statement nthitahiwu vmfshi. Si VB statement that his bapthews were determined that certain principles would be maintained in the Bapthews ranky "I came by Nashville on my way to Florida in order that I might get some inspiration from the big work being done here by our publishing house under the management of Dr. Boyd. This plant will continue to be the pride of the Negro Baptists all over the Country and I am sure that those Sun day schools who have been standing still, marking time, will redouble their efforts and give a greater patron age to the National Baptist Publishing Board and that they will send a large representative now to the Sun day School Congress in Alexandria next one. My state, Mississippi, and my town, Vicksburg, have agreed to carry a special train over and we will join Henry Allen Boyd and his specia at Monroe, going into Alexandria or the morning of 12th in time to get the biggest oxiation that has been accorded to any Sunday School forces I am to be in Florida for ten days. Have just returned from Louisiana and Texas more encouraged than ever be for the future of the Baptists."

overrunt his reason and thus caused millions to mourn as American citizens we have assembled here to honor these men who are representatives of that citizenship to carry the banner over the ocean to a foreign soil, and it is needless to say do your duty, for 1 am sure you will do so. We simply say, do your best. We would tell you of the valiant soldiers of bygone days and say that in every color of the world we were the colored soldiers have proved their worth. And now, the Spartan mother sent her son to war with these words: 'Return with your shield or on your shield.' Let every wound be in front. We send you forth with the same words; and when you are done with this war you will march home to receive the plaudits of the faithful citizens whom you leave behind." The choir sang the battle hymn of the Republic and Rev. J. T. Ridley. The bishop of the First Baptist Church in New York part: "Nothing but an occasion like this would cause me to speak at this doctor having cautioned me against speaking."

Y. M. C. A. WAR WORK AT HAMP
TON INSTITUTE.
By Almira F. Holmes, Y. W. C. A. Secretary.
Hampton, Va., March—An interesting and picturesque sight greets the eve as one stands on the threshold of the Hampton Institute girls' study hall at 4:30 on a Monday afternoon. All up and down the length of the big room, anywhere from 85 to 100 girls are gathering in small groups of fifteen or twenty. Each group has its own teacher, who directs and inspects the work.
These girls have come as members of the Y. W. C. A. Patiotic League and have voluntarily given an hour from their busy day to do their bit for the men at the front.
Some of the girls are Seniors who have hurried home from their teaching at the Whittier Training School. Some are the Night School girls, who have just come in from the long day of work in the kitchen or laundry.
SERVICE OF LOVE.
As the girls come into the room, they find the work laid out and waiting for them. Hastily donning their aprons and head covering, they arrange themselves around the tables and desks, where they are soon absorbed. Over the padding of gauge compresses. Over 2,000 of these surgical dressings have already been made by the Hampton girls, inspected, and packed. They have made also several hundred hardwears of different kinds.
The Senior girls, organized into a Lend-a-Hand Club, have enjoyed the cutting and making of 19 dresses for French orphans, which they have sent to the Smith Reconstruction nUit. One class of girls have just finished 150 shirts and pajamas for the Red Cross.
HELPING HAMPTON BOYS.
The enthusiasm for knitting became contagious last fall and the Hampton girls grew ambitious to supply the Hampton boys with sweaters.
As fast as the wool could be procured, the girls knitted it up in their spare moments. They made 83 sweaters, 12 helmets, 9 pairs of wristers, and 3 pairs of袜s.
These articles have been sent, as soon as they were out, to the men who have gone out from Hampton into the camps. Many girls at Hampton at present are busy knitting socks, as the demand for them seems to be great.

DARK AND BRIGHT
(N. Y. Sun.)
The progress of the Negro regiment—the 367th—through New York was marked with music. If the mea fight as they sing they will win their share in the final honors. Nebody who knows the history of their race doubts that they will fight. And aside from the personal contribution of the individual soldiers, the folk element that has entered into American life by way of Africa is not the least of forces that help us all in a time like this.
The spirit of the old slave songs may well be carried over, in a vicious sense, to the cries of Belgium and Poland for deliverance. Long years have passed since the Negroes from their cabins and meeting houses lifted in music that voicing as it were of Heaven's command: Let my people.
The freed children of the slaves are marching on to Germany singing in a tone of doom the songs that prophecy freedom to those whom the Kaiser has enslaved.
To many this is a dark hour. Therefore it is the hour when faith in ultimate right is most needed. Such faith is found in these old camp meeting songs. The race that gave them to America is by no means out of the wilderness. But they march. They are helping themselves and they need help from others. The Negro prisoners in Trenton State prison out of their $5 a year sent $100 to the Circle for Negro War Relief which has headquarters here at 485 Fifth avenue.

RELIGIOUS
FERVOR
ABUNDANT
Enthusiasm at the Sunday School Congress Unsurpassed—Big Sunday Parade—Workers From all Sections Marching—Sunday School Brass Band—Boy Cadets.
There is held in store for the Sunday School Congress workers a veritable religious feast in the 11 o'clock sermon that is to be preached on Sunday. The minister who is to preach Congress this year is a man of the younger school one young in thought but old in experience as a fervent gospel minister; old in the pastorate and a preacher of ability; and one calculated to stir up the thought and to give the religious fervor for the occasion.
MODEL SUNDAY SCHOOL AT
CONGRESS
Hundreds of well organized Sunday schools that have made enviable records for work accomplished could be improved if some representative of these different schools could spend one session at the Sunday School Congress in a Model Sunday School such as is conducted each year at the Sunday School Congress if they could see how the classes are taught, if they knew how the pupils were managed, if they could come in touch with the teaching forces, if they could hear the inspiring music rendered. If they only knew the amount of mentality that is employed by Sunday school experts in teaching, it was an occasion for actual observation of students of the Sunday school work they would come to Alexandria and become a student or teacher in this Model Sunday School. The entire session is devoted to the helpful instructions and all of the talent that is available at the meetings is put to work.
SPECIAL SPEAKERS FOR THE CONGRESS
Oratory will flow as never before at the Sunday School Congress this year. From the opening day, June 12, until the closing, June 17, the workers in the Sunday School will be favored by hearing the best speakers on the literary platform in the United States. These speakers are to appear during the following occasions: On Metoka and Galeda night, a special address is to be made for the benefit of the Metokas and Galedas; on Boy Cadet night, eloquent utterances will be heard in the interest of the boy-man by tending to the work; the boy is to sit at our future church life; on Sunday 11 o'clock a police officer that is to make the New Baptists immortal and for which it is noted, will be heard as never before. The minister who is to grace the rostrum on that morning for the Congress sermon will, it is said, redeem the reputation of the younger minister; while the Congress address to be delivered at 3 o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday is to be a masterly piece.
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS PARADE
At 2:30 on Sunday afternoon June 16, the annual Sunday School Congress parade will be pulled off. No feature of this Congress work is looked forward to with more joy and is hailed with greater delight than the coming of this parade. Participants in it go from the smallest Sunday School pupil in the Sunday School department to the most dignified and cultured minister in the pulpit. National and state officials are seen marching with their banners, caps and hats. In the line this will be the national minister with some indications of an increase of Congress officials, national officers, state officials, local workers and a host of Sunday School representatives and workers from throughout the country. There will be two brass bands, which are now designated as the Sunday School Congress bands and is in fact the second regimental band connected with the Congress and Boy Cadet Movement. These bands have made a specialty of playing for this Sunday School Congress parade. There will be two cadets under the command of Commanding General of the Boy Cadet of the United States with his official staff. The plan is to put about five thousand Sunday School workers in the streets of Alexandria Sunday afternoon to carry out this religious demonstration.
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS MASS MEETING
After the better part of the week has been spent in general sessions and departmental meetings; after Congress has been talked, walked, dreamed, sung, played and planned, then on Sunday afternoon, June 16, a special Sunday School Congress address will be delivered by a speaker of international fame. This occasion is one of the climaxes reached by the Sunday school forces, after a week's work, the like of which is not seen or even heard of during the year. The special address to be delivered this year is calculated to come up to the high standard of those that preceded it.

HIGH SCHOOL CONGRESS
CONGRESS SONGS.
"Hall the Baptist Congress" will be Sung by Thousands. "On, On Metas, and Galedas." "Christian Solitars" will be Heard. "With Many Other Will be Heard."
"On, On Metokas and Galedas" is the title of the Metoka and Galedas song that will be the watchword of these two organized classes in their meeting June 12-17, in connection with the Sunday School Congress. The directors of these two classes with the secretaries and their assistants promise to elevate the Metoka and Galeda class work to such a position that it will be sung throughout the civic hall. The students will be the builder, as a force that will keep the people in the Sunday School, as a drawing card to the college boy and girl, who hitherto have found the Sunday: School an unattractive place. Special stress will be laid upon the use of the Metoka and Galeda Magazine. The paraphernalia of this department, consisting of the pin, the pennant, the arm-band, the cards the magazine and the spirit of the class will give the students the opportunity to demonstrate what they are doing at home. Metoka and Galeda night has heretofore been one of the biggest nights at the Congress, and promises this year to be equally as attractive.
WILL FEATURE NEGRO MUSIC
Negro music will be featured exclusively at the Sunday School Congress. June 12-17, declared the national chorister who conducts the chorus that is expected to total six hundred voices. It is their plan to sing the songs written, arranged, set to music and printed exclusively by Negroes. Whether
these songs be the short and common meters; whether they are plantation or jubilee melodies or whether they are classics when the time comes for the Congress curtain to rise, the chorister is expected to have whipped into form one of the greatest aggregations of singers that has ever been prepared for a national gathering. The rendition of "Zekiel Saw the Wheel" has captivated them. The manner in which this wheel has rolled and the chorister's unique way of impressing it upon the singers has already stamped him indelibly upon the minds of the people as a master mind in training congregational singers. It was there that we would have the chessist assistance to support the chorus, with a piano and pipe organ. When the Congress opens it is claimed the chorus will be divided in the various subdivisions during the afternoon of each day in order that each departmental meeting might have special music. This with the addition of two bands already secured, is claimed by the Congress secretary to be an advance not yet enjoyed by the Sunday School workers at these annual gatherings. It was said that the city will be given an opportunity to see just what progress has been made along this particular line when the pre-Sunday School Congress Literary and Musical Concert is presented, where the public will be given an opportunity to hear that Alexandria realizes a way of local talent, to see how they have been rounded into form in so short a time. The selections will vary from the hymn lined out to the most difficult anthem that has ever been rendered in Alexandria. There will be a brass band, with an orchestra to give selections. There will be solos, duets, quartets, double quartets, congregational singing. The music at the Congress this year, according to the best information obtained, will eclipse anything that has been put on.
DEPARTMENTS OF THE CONGRESS

cial calling. If you are a superintendent at home, you will naturally be interested in the problems that will come before the superintendents' department. If you teach the Intermediate or Primary classes at your home, you will naturally want to spend your afternoons in this particular department. If you are advanced teachers, the natural tendency would be to come in touch with the advanced teachers from other schools, to handle the difficult Roll Home Department, Boy Cadet, Sunday School Missionary or any other Sunday School work, you will find at the Congress that after the general sessions have adjourned for noon from 2:30 until 6:30 in the afternoon, there will be some department in session where you will have an opportunity not only to gather inspiration, but to throw off that pent-up energy that you have been accumulating all the year and where you your self may demonstrate the many helpful things you have perhaps brought about invented or put into practice your school, to benefit your experience that at the same time be benefited by the experience others will give, by attending the de
BRASS BANDS.
There was a time when it was almost impossible to have the right kind of music in efficient volume to do justice to the Sunday School Congress at a national movement. This problem, however, was solved when the Sunday School Congress movement succeeded in making permanent and a part of the national gatherings two brass bands, one of ten pieces and one of fourteen pieces. These bands are uniformed and especially well qualified as musicians to play particularly every song that will be at the Congress. The band was for the past three years a part of the great force that made such favorable impression in the rendition of these sacred songs through their sessions and that have been conspicuous in the mammoth street parade on Sunday afternoon. Hear the Congress brass bands at the Sunday School Congress.
B. Y. P. U. DEPARTMENT AT
CONGRESS.
A longfelt want was supplied when it was announced that the B. Y. P. U. Societies would have a department in the coming Congress. B. Y. P. U. organizations throughout the United States who send representatives to the Alexandra session of the Congress will have the advantage of all the instructions in the B. Y. P. U. work that can be given out by practical experts and B. Y. P. U. workers. Every department of the B. Y. P. U. will be carefully gone into. The Christian Culture Course, the Reading Course, the devotions, the literature, the missionary feature, in fact B. Y. P. U.'s as they ought to be conducted will be demonstrated.
SOCILOGICAL AND INDUSTRIAL
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT.
The newest department in the Congress work is that of the Sociological and Applied Industrial. Education. While the theme has not been new the department this year under this head will be under the direction of trained college professors who have made a practical study in this particular line of intellectual uplift. Division of the Congress, Vicksburg, the addresses have been delivered along discussions of sociology and the discussions on the subjects listed stirred the meeting beyond expectation. Addresses were made, subjects discussed and ideas brought out on sociology that were instructive from the very beginning and which heaped materially every attendant at the meeting.
SINGING ORGANIZATIONS AT THE CONGRESS
A Chorus of 600 Voices to Furnish Music at the Congress. Texas Quartette and Shreveport Singing Club.
Supporting the regular musical feature of the Sunday School Congress will be several independent singing organizations. Notice has been given to the secretary of the Sunday School Congress that a Glee Club of about eighteen members from Shreveport, La., would grace the Congress with its presence this year. Then there is to be a special quartet out of Texas, coming from Houston, that is making a specialty of Sunday School Congress work. In addition to this the Juvenile Congress Choir will make its initial appearance. Thus the singing this year will excel any attempt of former years.
TEXAS QUARTET COMING TO ALEXANDRIA.
Another singing club has notified the Sunday School Congress Secretary that it was their purpose to attend the Sunday School Congress and to serve in every possible way. Prof. G. W. Williams of Houston, Tex., with H. Hickey, T. H. Simpson, H. Y. McCoy, and his quartet. They declare this quartet has prepared itself to render service by singing the very best religious song—songs found in the

MEMORIES Of Fifty Years Recalled.
THE appearance of the National Jubilee Melodies a new song book containing all the old jubilee and songstress songs to play in music, is creating the widest kind of comment in every section of the United States. This is attested to by hundreds of letters that have been received *d* since the song book appeared and since it so successfully used throughout the session of the great National Ba that forwent in which just closed its melody *g*. A sample of what the people say will be of interest:
"I have examined the National Jubilee Melodies and found some old treasures that would *i* like to put with a fragment of the tune, and we see that I have carried in my brain and memory since I was a *a* for *y* for ye rage that since the first time I have ever seen them in print or diction in the boe is g *u* rulerview grammatically speaking of diction in the boe is g *u* rulerview of identity.

I think that their peculiar style should be preserved and danced of white poetic."

WHEN AND WHERE THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL, CONGRESS HAS MET.
Thirteen years ago in June the first session of the Sunday School Congress was held. When the announcement went forth that the movement had been launched for the benefit of the Sunday school forces and the B. Y. P. U. workers. It was hailed with joy and'dight. Strong editors by the leading denominational editors appeared in papers throughout the country. Secular journals declared it was beyond measure the proper time and that the meeting was calculated to do what no other had done. It would, in other words, be the little leaven in the loaf. So in June 1906, the movement was launched at Nashville, Tenn. In 1907 it met in New Orleans, in 1908 in Jacksonville, Fla.; in 1909 at Nashville, Tenn.; in 1910, Atlanta, Ga.; 1911, Meridian Miss.; 1912, Tuskegee, Ala.; 1913, in Muskegue, Okla.; 1914, Beaumont Tex.; in 1915, Birmingham, Ala.; in 1916, Vicksburg, Miss.; 1917, in Nashville, Tenn.

E SUNDAY
OL CONGRESS.
Commanding-General W. H. Crawford of the National A. F. Cadet Movement and his general staff have issued a general order for the Fifth Annual Encampment of the National A. F. Cadets to be held at Alexandria, La., in connection with the thirteenth annual session of the Sunday School Congress, June 12-17. Representatives of the Boy Cadet movement in every section of the United States are expected to be in attendance. Some Sunday Schools will send an entire company Perhaps several battalion bands will be in attendance. Boys in uniform will be seen each day and the spirited military discipline under religious influence will be injected into them as never before. Nothing has proven so beneficial to the forward Sunday School movement as the Boy Cadet movement, which is a part of the Sunday School Congress. Each Sunday School may have as many companies as they feel able to support. A book of tactics with the bugle calls and other information can be obtained from the National Baptist Publishing Board. In fact, how to organize a company of Cadets is told in a very simple way in this book, which sells for ten cents.
CRADLE ROLL AND INFANT DE-
PARTMENT AT CONGRESS.
"Where are the children and what are they doing?" is a problem that this department is taking up, taking the child as soon as it is given a name and keeping up with that child until it is able to be turned over to primary department of the Sunday School. The work of the Cradle Roll and Infant Department, while new to some of the Baptist schools, has become so important that special superintendents of this work have been designated in many schools. At the Congress this year one competent, one well trained, assisted by those who have had actual experience will tell how to conduct the Cradle Roll and Infant Department in the various schools.

Heavenly Father will give you when finished your work on earth. She also complimented her on good behavior. Speaking in all Miss Chambers' address was more uplifting and inspiring for the reason that not quite a year ago that she organized this class with the help of Rev. J. H. Sharp, and in that class the rippening of her fruit of labor. We were more than glad to have Miss Chambers and she has a hearty welcome at all times. Laist was a beautiful solo by Mrs. A. L. Williams, "From the Garden to the cross adore." Mrs. O. G. Morton presided at the Instrument throughout the evening and sang a beautiful solo to the delight of all present.

MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH.
NOTES.
The revival services being conducted at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church are progressing wonderfully and many souls are being added to the Master's kingdom. The services are being conducted by Rev. J. A. Sharp, Superintendent of Teacher Training of the National Baptist Publishing Board. In this revival, Rev. Sharp is demonstrating modern methods of soul saving and his efforts are meeting with great success. Carrying out the instructions given the members of his Teacher Training class of last year, Dr. Sharp organized helpers before the revival begin giving instructions to each group. His principal meeting leaders were instructed in the methods necessary to carry on a successful meeting doing away with the hapazhard methods formerly employed in such meetings. In the services the conductor and the pastor have made efforts to reason with the unconverted and have them accept the Lord and no appeal has been made to their emotions. So plain and simple have been the instructions given that many young people have seen the light and have joined the church. A pleasing feature of the services has been the singing. Up to the present time fifty-six persons have been made candidates for baptism.
Sunday school Sunday morning was largely attended. School was opened at exactly 9:30 o'clock by the Superintendent, Mr. G. P. Baker, with a large attendance. The first half hour was devoted to prayer, Scripture reading and singing. The Sunday school lesson was taught by the teachers, practically the entire teaching force was present when the

BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH.
Sunday was truly a high day at Bethel A. M. E. Church. The Sunday school was largely attended, $10 was raised, besides eggs given by each pupil for the cause of Missions. A special program was rendered Sunday night. 8
demonstrated by the superintendent known as the Review Laundry or Wash Day in the Sunday School. The object of the review plan is to vividly portray the lesson studied that a great impression may be made upon the minds of all. The general theme or key note for the lesson represents our aim of conduct that on which hangs our success or failure. The prop represents Faith holding up all our acts. The clothes pins are typical of Confidence and Surety in what we do. The wash tub represents Conviction. The rinsing the conversion tub, both necessary to a clean life. The wash board represents repentance. The wringer represents forgiveness. The well represents the Fortune (or Goodness) the water his, blood, the soup his Grace. The buckets God's love. Appropriate music all during the exercises. Bethel Church and the whole community are proud of Mr. Shackleford. He is a leading star in Sunday school work. He is the instructor of Sunday school teachers' training class. He is dealing with the minds of the young and old. This was one of the greatest demonstrations ever witnessed by any people. When you want to be entertained with high class Sunday school work come to Bethel or see Mr. Shackleford.
ST. JOHN BAPTIST CHURCH
Easter Sunday was a day of blessed enjoyment throughout the whole day. Sunday school was enjoyed by all who attended and at 11 o'clock there was a nice, short program rendered. Sister Batrice Williams, the president of the Galedas, read a wonderful paper on Easter, after which our most honorable pastor, Rev. W. H. Whitaker, preached a special Easter sermon for the benefit of the Sunday school, text, Matt. 28:6, subject, "Women Running with a Message for the Lord." He illustrated it so very beautifully and a spiritual intelligence that we all sat, thank and our souls feasted from mamma. At 3 o'clock Rev. Coleneum delivered to us a wonderful message from God and again at 8 o'clock the pastor filled the rostrum and dealt out to us another wonderful sermon, text, Acts 12:15, subject, "Prayer Meeting at Sister Mary's House."
We are having prayer meeting at our house all this week in order to get everything straight and find out if the sinners in our community really want a revival. Our revival will start Sunday night, which will be the first Sunday night and the 7th of the month. We are hoping for a great time and cordially invite all to come and take a part, both saints and sinners. We hope to see a great number of souls saved by the help of God Almighty. Visitors are always welcome. Doors always open for the reception of members. Rev. F. Swift, of Lake Providence, will be with us in our revival. Everybody likes to hear him speak.

REVIVAL AT MT. OLIVE! A GREAT
REVIVAL RESULTED. FROM THE
EXPERIMENT OF TEACHER
TRAINING.
The Mt. Olive Missionary Baptist Church was to take up the order of preparing the Sunday school teachers to do the blinding of Jesus, who said, "Teach them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you."
After the completion of a two years' course under the tutorship of Rev. J. A. Sharp, Superintendent of Teacher-Training for the National Baptist Publishing Board, I thought it wise to put into practice what the Superintendent and teachers had got from the training, them having finished their course and having their diplomas, we had the church to elect Dr. Sharp, who is a member of the church, to conduct the 26th of the series of revivals, which was ordered in the organization of the church, which organization was effected by the late Rev. R. T. Huffman, D. D., the first pastor, usually beginning March the 20th of each year. In accord with the order of each year, in organized his forces largely out of the church that graduated last year. Wednesday in the day in the week preceding the 10th Sunday morning he opened in earnest
1
e revival which has resulted to date in more than seventy additions to the church, 65 of whom are happy candidates for baptism, many of whom were people that the church had not been able to reach by any of the former methods used. (It may be regarded with pardonable pride that I refer to myself, having been a revivalist of 40 years experience. I lay some claims to the order of soul-winning under the i proved methods heretofore used. Dr. Sharp, have mentions that I might contribute to the brotherhood of America and elsewhere. I regard him as a preacher of rare ability, especially, of the New Testament. He has a profound train of thought, the lead of which emphasizes Christ and the plan of salvation and the importance attached to it by his apostles, which demonstrates the soundness of his position as a soul winner and as a Gospel preacher. Sunday, March 30th, brought an occasion for the climax of the great services. Sunrise prayer meeting led by Bro. Porter Carter in his respects possesses exceptional ability, for presenting leadership. At 9:30 a.m., under the new order of time, Superintendent Baker, one of Dr. Sharp's products, called to order one of the best Sunday school gatherers that the church has ever witnessed, which was enjoyed by the church almost inexpressible. The Sunday prior, twenty-one of the Sunday school scholars had made profession of hope in Christ. With this order foremost his corps of teachers in sympathy with it, among whom special mention is here made of Prof. H. B. P. Johnson, teacher of class 16A, Circulating manager of the Union-Review, and Musical Authority Board, who also thwarted the audience with his choral class, which has been under his tutorship for only a few weeks. All of which argue the necessity of the Teacher-Training Service, conducted by the church as has been taught and propagated by our Board under the leadership of Rev. J. A. Sharp.
Hopeless years,

NOT ONE SPY PUNISHED.
Assertions by Senator Overman, who is certainly neither an alarmist nor a republican, that enemy agents in one of the principal airplane plants of this country have engaged on a wholesale scale in murderous practices against our airmen immediately raises the demand for fitting punishment of such acts to an issue that cannot be ignored.
At least part of the delay in carrying out our air program appears to have been due to enemy plots that manifested themselves in deliberately weakened airplane parts, involving after the discovery of the practice tedious and costly reinspections, and responsible, no doubt, for more than one of the mysterious collapses of airplanes at the several American training fields, with loss of valuable lives.
There have been numerous instances of enemy activity brought to light in our courts since the war began, many of them resulting in convictions. Because of inadequacy of our civil laws to deal drastically with these things, the punishments prescribed have been so minor as to be ridiculous. It has become worse than a commonplace, it is indeed a scandal, for judges in every part of the union to voice, when they impose sentences on spies and traitors, their personal regret that they cannot call up a firing squad.
If tolerance has not exhausted itself in any of the previous cases surely it must cease to exist after the Overman revelations. Americans have been and are both easy going and unwindictive. It requires no vindictiveness now to insist that the punishment of acts directed against the warfare of our cause and the very lives of our men in uniform be made proportional to the offense. Only one penalty of course can be in any way proportional, and that is death.
It is the duty of the government to provide a way to deal with treason, espionage and murder committed on behalf of the enemy. If civil law must remain so inadequate, military law should be substituted. Certainly there can be no insuperable difficulty in the way of placing military law over our airplane plants, for one thing. Sweet dealing is positively of no avail to check pro-Germanism where it really exists. We shall have to get down to a practical basis in meeting the internal menace sometime. The sooner we do it the fewer will be the lives of our soldiers need lessly destroyed.
Not the least of the omissions of our policy has been in the fact that of the thousands of enemy agents caught in this country since a year ago when we went to war not one has paid for his crime with his dishonorable life. It is not a matter of hatred at all. It is just the lives of our soldiers against the lives of spies.

LEBANON BOYS GIVEN ROYAL
RECEPTION.
Lebanon, Tenn., April 3, 1918.
The citizens of Lebanon and Wilson County witnessed the greatest and most patriotic days in the history of the County, Friday, March 29th. When the first fifty colored boys who were drafted for service of their country came in town to take train for Camp Meade. These young men met at the Post Offices and reported to the local board, from there they marched to the domestic science department of the Wilson County Training school, where they were served for dinner. The local members of the board came up to inspect and found everything beyond their expectation, they were loud in their praise for the Principal of the school and the domestic science teacher, Mrs. Pearl Crews, who was assisted by the entire faculty and ladies of the parent-teachers association in preparing the meals for the soldier boys. After they were served dinner, a of march as form for all of the school children at one o'clock. The policed policemen headed the parade. Next came the fifty drafted young men headed by the brass band. The students of the high school department in white uniform headed by the Senior Class. The parade proceeded through the principal streets and residence sections of the town to the public square, where a platform had been erected for the occasion, they were greeted by hundreds of colored and white citizens.
Dr. W. A. Thompson one of the leading medical doctors of the town acted as master of ceremony. The program opened with a patriotic selection by the school, accompanied by the brass band. Dr. Thompson was a graduate and a raconteur was glad that Wilson County could present to the Government such a bunch of stalwart young men to fight side by side with their white friends.

He then introduced Hon. John E. Edgerton, who expressed his ap preciation of the compliment and courtesy and call by the program committee. He spoke very impressively and the boys were indeed appreciative of the cheerful and inspiring address. He said you are not only representing your race but the white race, not only representing Wilson College and the state of Tennessee, but the nation, and that they are watching us with as much care and interest as the white boys who have proceeded us to the battle field. A musical selection was rendled by the school chorus.

This was the first occasion that a member of our race was ever heard to speak from a platform on the public square and especially to exemplify the patriotism of his race. He assured the audience that his race was working shoulder to shoulder with the white

people to win this war and that there has never been, nor will there ever be a time when the Negro race will fall to defend the honor of his country and his flag. He urged the boys not to disgrace the uniform of our country, that their manly conduct as well as their loyalty and bravery had much to do with the winning of this great war. Musical selection, "You shall gain the victory," by School Chorus.
Rev. T. W. Johnson, pastor of the Methodist Church was introduced. He said our race was a liberty loving race and that we appreciate it more because there had been a time when we were denied liberty and that he did not believe that any braver boys had been called than those from Wilson County. And he was glad the time had come when the white man said to him "this is our country, and we regard you as a part of it. as a race accept it gladly and we are going to live and die here unless we die in Germany. Dr. Johnson stood upon the platform speaking, his church, two bells away was on fire, but many congratulations for his excellent speech under such trying conditions. A musical selection was rendered by school chorus.
Dr. W. S. Ellington, the notoried orator and scholar of Nashville was introduced. He was invited here by the committee as principal speaker of the occasion. He spoke of the opportunities for advancement and rank that would be given the boys and for them to be brave, loyal, upright and self-respecting, and for them to go forward and fight, reflect credit upon your race, who have won honors and destruction as warriors, in previous wars. Do this and bring back the old flag of glory in honor or report to God why. He painted picture after picture of our heroes upon the battlefield. He assured the boys that they would not undergo hardships because of their race. He spoke of his visit to Camp Meade and that the boys were as well cared for as the white boys. He closed his address with an appeal to the citizens to produce more food stuff, spend less, buy more thrift stores and that any man would feel walking around with Uncle Sam owning him. The citizens are loud in their praise of the address delivered by Dr. Ellington, especially the white citizens, they said it was the grandest they had ever heard white or black, his language was perfect and his oratory swept them off their feet.
At 7:30 o'clock a banquet was given in honor of the soldier boys at the public school building. A short program was rendered. Mr. C. Winston, a old soldier and citizen made a talk, also Rev. M. T. Riley, pastor of the Baptist Church made an interesting talk to the boys. Prof Edward P. Chiles, President of Cumberland University was principal speaker. He congratulated the program committee and the speakers of the program which he appeared on the day program. He emphasized the address delivered by Dr. Ellington and that it was the grandest address he had ever heard. He held the audience

The Auxiliary of the Fifteenth Avenue Baptist Church was in their regular meeting Thursday night, Mar. 28, 1918; at the residence of Mrs. Pearlie Ransom, 914 Fourteenth avenue, North.

TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE SUMMER SCHOOL
The ninth annual session of the Tuskegee Institute Summer School for teachers will be held this year, beginning June 10th and extending through July 19th. This summer school has become a permanent feature of education in the South. Already teachers are registering and securing rooms. It means greater efficiency, and that the work of education must go on. Courses will be offered in all the common school subjects, in teacher-training subjects, and in industrial subjects. The subjects will be studied and methods in the presentation of these subjects. The work of teacher-training will include psychology, Class Room Management, Primary Methods and kindred subjects. There will also be classes in Cooking, Sewing, Handicraft, Manual Training and Canning.
This year, through the interest and help of the General Education Board, a special course will be offered for all the teachers who work in schools aided by Mr. Julius Rosenwald. All the Rosenwald teachers in all the Southern states are expected to attend.
Addresses each day will be delivered by such men as Dr. Phillips, Superintendent of Schools, Birmingham, Ala.; Mr. Sprigdott Dowell, State Supt. of Education, Alabama; Mr. Richard Hobbie, Federal Food Administrator for Alabama; Mr. Crawford Johnson, State Director National War-Savings Committee, Birmingham, Ala.; Prof. Z.

Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. The war is bringing the people of this country into a closer bond of sympathy and understanding and it is my sincere belief that, when conditions are readjusted, ours will be a better and stronger country. Members of the race throughout the country are co-operating with the white people in local Red Cross, Food, Liberty Bond, Fuel and Thrift Stamp Campaigns and through these new relationships, there will come increasing opportunities for demonstrating the race's value as a civic and economic asset.
I have been especially proud of the recognition which has come to our newspapers. The various publicity bureaus at Washington are sending out their material to our papers just as to papers published by other people, and it is interesting to note that some of the leading advertising men of the nation are identified with these bureaus at Washington. After the war it is more than likely that these men will not forget the valued co-operation that the Negro newspapers are giving now, and will give careful attention to their merits in making up lists of papers for national advertisers. It will be a long step forward when national advertisers begin to ask, "How much will it cost to reach the colored people through their leading papers?"
The "signs of the times" are significant. I notice that the leading Press Clipping Bureaus are clipping editorials from Negro papers in an increasing degree, that the Negro thinks it is becoming important to the men who control the political and commercial destiny of this nation. The National Negro Business League has been a powerful factor in keeping the business development of the race before the public.
ROGER WILLIAMS—W A L D E N
STUDENTS’ CONFERENCE
The thirty-seventh annual students' conference was held at Walden University, March 29, 1918. The session was one of the most remarkable ones in the history of the convention of the two schools, both in point of attendance and interest manifested. The conference of Walden and Roger Williams was started thirty-seven years ago and has steadily grown in interest and worth. It was a wonderful scene to see the entire student body of Roger Williams and Walden, March into the beautiful auditorium and assemble at 10 o'clock Friday morning. Beautiful colors of the two great colleges were flying from every side of the house while large Walden and Roger nennants streamed all around.
Promptly at 10, o'clock the president called the house to order and proceeded with the program for the morning. The pieces from Roger and Walden were most acceptable and well delivered. Special mention is due the Walden speaker who spoke on. The inspirational message was as Bonder, Roger's star soloist completely charmed her hearers with a vocal selection. Beyond a doubt the climax of the occasion came when Roger sent to the plat-
form her most gifted young orator,
Mack T. Williams. His piece was
conceded by all to be a master-plece
Few abler addresses have been delivered than the one by "Mack T." (as the Rogerites call him.) He was a complete master of the situation. Walden University deserves all praise for the kindly in which she received the visiting school. Her students showed remarkable ability and training. Their star speaker was a young woman who spoke to "Wom- woman of the world." A well delivered address. A. M. Williams was elected president. Walden is a great school and is doing a great work.
THE LITTLE CHILDREN.
If all could have the right kind of training and care in early childhood most of the lilies would be cured in a generation. The preventive method is surer and cheaper than any that can be found later. Since no child is responsible for its birth, the Christian world should see that it has a chance, a kindergarten trainscience, domestic art, good manners, in all the principles of domestic mestic science, art, good manners, boys and girls alike, by well trained teachers. Thousands have not the time to abilities to do this work. When old enough to enter the public school the mind is full of evil that little can be done for them. If teachers should turn from their regular duties to give all the instruction needed along these lines, the children could not make their grades.
Train all the children properly, then when sent to the detention farm, industrial school, orphanage, homes in good families can easily be gotten for them. When a child has not had this opportunity during its first seven years, it is difficult if not impossible to wear all right. This neglect places too many demands on the teacher. There many principles taught in the high school that burden both teacher and pupil that should be given to all little children. The same may be said of young men and young women in college. It should be the birthright of every child to be taught to live decently, then if he does not get through the grammar school he can become a respectable citizen. Is it right to without a chance, knowing that their minds are being filled with mental poison, then, when grown up punish them for whatever wrongs they commit?
In order that we may have a higher standard of citizenship, a better world in which to live, will men and women in high places and the Christian church see that every child has a chance.
This is the only way to clear out our slums; teach the children to have high ideals. As a rule, old folk who are there would not like a change; they prefer to live where they can get the news before it happens; they love the excitement.
A complete kindergarten course will prove to be the panacea that all the world needs.

UNION LEAGUE GIVES COLORS TO

COV. WHITMAN MAKES PRESEN-
TATION IN FIFTH AVENUE TO
NEW YORK’S OWN REGIMENT.
PLEDGED TO FLAG’S HONOR
THREE THOUSAND SING ‘STAR-
SPANGLED BANNER' AND
‘OVER THERE'—SOON TO
GO TO FRANCE.
‘New York’s Negro fegiment, which
in army records {s the 467th Infan-
try, National Army of the United
States, paraded up Fifth Avenue
yesterday afternoon at full war
strength, while thousands of persons
cheered. More than ,000 men were
in Une when the command, led by its
own band and bugle corps, swung
into the avenue at Tyenty-fivth street
shortly before 2 o'clock. So many
‘Negro fighters were never before
see at one time in New York, and
when the parade was over and
Colonel James A. Moss, the command-
er of the unit, had accepted a stand
of colors from the Union League
Club, the unanimous verdice of the
‘great crown that had seen the regi-
ment was: “They'll do.”
__A feature of the exerolses was the
singing of “The Star-Spangled Ban-
ner” and “Over There” by the Negro
soldiers with a rhythm and ring that
will never be forgotten by those who
heard it.
It was probably the last time—as
it was first—that the regiment will
be seen in New York until the war {s
over and the Americans come sailing
home. ‘This tact was reailzed by the
breat majority of those who cheered
the men as they proceeded snappily
and perfect formation up fifth Ave-
nue, and it was indicated in the re-
marks made by Colonel Moss when,
on behalf of the regiment, he ac.
cepted the colors from ‘Governor
Whitman. Colonel Moss said that
the next time the regiment appeared
in New York it would be to giye back
the colors, “sanctified by victory,” te
the Union League Club, to be forever
a in trust as a memorial of th
367th Infantry.
‘The regiment paraded fifteen com
| panies strong, and it was a business

OFFICERED BY NEGROES.
COLONEL MOSS'S RESPONSE.
Colonel Moss advanced toward
Governor Whitman and took from his
hand the new colors,
“Your Excellency, gentlemen of
the Union League Club, and fellow-
American citizens,” he sald, “in ac-
cepting this stand of colorrs I wish
to say on behalf of the 367th Regi-
‘ment of Infantry which it is my
Pleasant duty to command, that we
prize this banner more than we can
express, But we prize even more the
spirit which actuated the givers,
Not only does the presentation indi-
cate the delicate respect these givers
feel our colored soldiers, but it also
exemplifies the friendship this club
has always felt for the soldiers and
patriot who sprang from slavery—a
friendship based on the principle of
a square deal for all men,
“That the colorede men of this
command will protect and honor this
flag by night and day, throughout
long marches, at play or in a clutch
with death itself, a something that
goes nde saying, and let me say
to you today that when this war is
all over there is going to be another
presentation of colors here beside
this clubhouse. Mark you well what
I say to you in this presence to day,
for I,am an officer with eighteen
years’ experience with colored sol-
diers, having commanded them in two
campaigns; these<gen are going to
present you men in the Union Leagus
Club with colors on their return from
France. The colors they will present
you we want you to hang upon your
walls, where they can tell with silent
eloquence in all the years to come a
story of valor and utterable patriot-
ism to which all Americans, includ-
ing our 12,000,000 of black citizens,
can listen with a thrill of pride and
satisfaction.
“And now I take with my own
hands this priceless banner and I
placa it in the hands of our color
bearers beside our individual regi-
mental colors which we are going to
take ‘over there.’ ”

There are signs of a reaction
against lynching in the South,
‘A few wooks ago citizens of Nash-

groes. Their action was the result
of @ mob outrage of a peculiar fe-
rocity .and peculiar disregard of the
elements of public order.
Now it is the authorities of Geor-
gia that take action which indicates
& stewing sense of the shame that
has come upon the South’ and upon
America through outbreaks of” mob
viotence in many of the states, somo
of them north af Mason and Dixon's

ward of $500 for the arrest and con-
viction of any member of the mob
that ‘took Negro out of Taliaferro
coanty Jail the other day, lynched
him, More than that he las ordered

in whose jurisdiction the outrage
was perpetrated.
‘These aro healthy signs of the re
turn of respect for law in those com:
aionwealths in which mobs have
most frequently undertaken to act
as judge, jury and executioner at
tho same ‘time.
‘The movement by Gov. Dorsey, of

by the citizens of Nashville, will suc
