VOLUME XIII. MISS ANNIE MAY DUNSON CROWNED QUEEN—MISS MYRTLE BIDDIX DOES EXCELLENT WORK ALSO. One of the most interesting rallies of the season was held at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church Sunday morning when the Sunday school, under the leadership of its efficient super-intendent raised more than $110.00 for the indebtedness of the school. The school had been divided into two sections, one under the Generalship of Miss Annie Mae Dunson and the other under the generalship of Miss Mrytle Biddix. Both of these young ladies had assistants. Mrs. Minerva Bates helped Miss Dunson as Lieutenant and Mrs. Zeffle Johns assisted Miss Biddix. Each side had mascots and the individual classes to which they belonged helped wonderfully in the effort, which attested the popularity of the girls among their own associates. Miss Josephine Douglas was with Miss Dunson and Miss Vivian Clark assisted Miss Biddix. The school was called to order by the Superintendent at 9:30 o'clock. The singing was unusually good. Prayer was offered, after which the Lord's Prayer was chanted by the school. The Scripture lesson was read and the roll called, after which the teachers took charge of their classes. At the conclusion of the lesson hour an interesting program was rendered by the school under the supervision of Prof. Johnson. ```markdown ``` MR. G. P. BAKER, Superintendent Mt.

ANNUAL DENTAL DAY AT MEHARRY DR. E. T. BELSAW PRINCIPAL SPEAKER—SPLENDID PRO- GRAM RENDERED—LARGE AUDITORIUM THRONGED. By Leander R. Hill. A delightful program was arranged by the swell Neil Dental Society, Dr. E. T. Belsaw, a noted dentist of Mobile, Ala, was the principal speaker. The auditorium was beautifully decorated, the feature of which was a large service bag containing the stars. The crowded house was quiet until the speaker of the day mounted the platform, when the applause became deafening and lasted for several minutes. The applause died away when Mr. T. W. Tobin, president of the society, arose to open the program. He told of the great work done by the Society during the first year of its existence, he explained that the object of the society was for the betterment of the Dental Department and the glory of Mehary. He also urged all graduates of Mehary to get in touch with the Ewell Neil Dental Society. In conclusion he paid a tribute to the first graduation of the sequoia who were seated upon the platform, the same stated that a beautiful sun lavatory given by the school would be presented to the school in memory of the sterling worth and untiring efforts of Dr. J. Singleton, dean of the Dental Department. The master of ceremonies then introduced the Hon. A. N. Johnson, the ask words of the speaker could not be heard, so great was the appause which greeted Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson delivered some historic remarks relative to the greatest Negro Dental College in the world. He congratulated the city upon having an institution that brought such a high type or young men to the city. He placed the hospitality of the south's leading city at the disposal of McHarry's young men. At this juncture a solo was heard from Mr. R. E. Ase, junior dental student. He was introduced as the ambassador of "the ambassadorate." He has a smooth voice and gave a beautiful delivery of his talent. The master of ceremonies then introduced the speaker of the day, Dr. Belsaw, "continued Mr. Tobia, "is without a double one of the leading dentists, race leaders and orators of the country, he is a graduate of our own dental college, class 1998." When the speaker's name was called the throng burst into a storm of applause, which only subdued when the speaker arose to his feet and was seen by the hundreds of eyes which were focussed upon him. The speaker paid respect to President G. Hubei, who had served and has served the institution since its foundation. Through his efforts, said the speaker, "here is a monument to do good for ages to come." He likened Dean Singleton and his corps of teachers to Caesar's Tenth Legion. He congratulated the Dental Society and urged them to continue the good work so nobly begun. Dr. Belsaw said in part: "I have not come to you to name the great Negroes of the past and to recount all their achievements, neither do I plan to tell you of the deeds of valor or the black soldiers in the war of the American Revolution, who make no objection to you a history of the Dental profession, but I shall talk to you from the subject, "The Negro Doctor a Potent Factor in Racial Development. "This occasion fills me with a pardonable pride as I stand here and glance over this beautiful concourse of men and women who have come here to celebrate this Dental Day, at one of America's greatest professional institutions." ..... "If I can impress upon a single young man the dignity and high calling of his profession and create a more sincere appreciation of its lofty ideals and a firmer purpose to attain to those ideals. I will have been amply repaid. It affords me great pleasure to address this proud-looking student body of my illustrious Alma Mater; to be back upon the scene of many a battle for knowledge and supremacy. From days immortal, even before progressive enlightenment had been rocked in the cradle of thought, it has been the duty of the fortunate and strong to defend and lead the weak. As civilization reaches the end, the corridor of knowledge and marks which we have been accustomed to know begin to disappear; familiar faces deter out of sight and a new generation of men and women begins to appear, surrounded by new conditions. Such is the case with our race until today the mantle of duty and responsibility rests upon our shoulders. Let the sacred obligation which has devolved upon this generation sink deeply into your hearts. Upon the Negro professional man rests a high responsibility." The speaker held the audience spellbound and was frequently interrupted with applause. Continued the speaker, "You will deal with a people who will not only be suffering from physicalills but from civic and political oppression; who are being woefully mistreated and whose spirits and whose souls are becoming burdened." "You must keep abreast of the times and live in the present with a hopeful contemplation of the future. We are living in stormy times. What we are interested in is not an ordinary international war. This contest is not between savage and barbarous and untutored people. This war is a classic war. We are standing in the bloody savage of a dead that is a thousand years old." The dream of a one world empire is passed. Such a dream had Alexander the Great and Napoleon. We are witnessing the birth of a new NASHVILLE. TENN.. FRIDAY. APRIL 19. 1918. DAY OF PRAYER SUNDAY, APRIL 21 DAY OF PRAYER SUNDAY, APRIL 21 BETTER HEALTH CONDITIONS HEALTH WEEKS OBSERVED MINISTERS ASKED TO CO- OPERATE -CLEAN-UP WEEK. Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—In response to numerous calls for suggestions as to how National Negro Health Week may be observed, the following for the first day, Sunday, April 21st—has been issued by the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League, Dr. Robt. R. Moton, Chairman. Specific instructions for observing the other days of Health Week have already been published in circular form and may be secured by addressing Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. In order that the people may enter heartily into the movement for better health and to the end that the program may be effectively carried out, it is suggested that the ministers of all the colored churches throughout the nation, set aside Third Sunday in April—the 21st—as a DAY OF PRAYER for better health conditions and that each person should be prepared this day a special health room to his congregation, and arrange if possible for some physician to deliver a special health talk at an afternoon or evening meeting. In addition to this, each minister is requested to arrange, whenever possible, appropriate services which shall include a discussion of local health conditions and any other matters which in his judgment will make the Clean-Up Week a success. In cities and communities where there is designated a date other than April 21st to 27th for general cleaning, it may be well for colored people in such cities and communities to arrange for their cleaning to be done as a part of the community cleaning. It has been emphasized however, by Mr. Allen W. Clark, of the National Lake Up and Clean-Up Bureau of St. Louis, Missouri, who will give the three cups that the local campaigns should continue longer than one week but that the opening date of each local campaign should be April 21st-27th. Ideal, an ideal of nationality with new human significance and service, be not afraid shoulder to shoulder as friend to friend and weave your garlands from the lightning's wings. You cannot afford to sink slothful dissatisfaction and enjoy the taste less leisure while there is so much of service to be performed. You must of course conduct yourself with a degree of dignity and refinement commensurate with your profession. . . . At the end of this great war the victors will look around" for ink, for paper and for silks. If this will there will be none; so he will dip his pen in the red blood with corpuscles containing strength and courage, shed by the American Negro and sign the great treaty." The speaker drew a great picture of the international peace table around which was seated all nations. "At this great table is seated the American Negro," continued the orator. "And behold the Supreme Court is the waiter. Look! He serves the Negro first; the first such contained no more segregation; he served the Negro again, no more segregation; he served the Negro a ballot and the right to help make laws and to govern himself and better protection for our women at home." At the close of the address Messrs. Dreher and Williams rendered a magnificent clarinet duet which was enclosed. President Hubbard was introduced and he made short remarks concerning the growth, history and importance of the Dental Department. This brought the exercises to a close in the auditorium and the crowd repaired across the street to the Operatory contained in a new $8,000 Dental Annex, where Mr. M. B. Hutto in a few well chosen words presented the Fountain Lavatory to the faculty. Dr. G. W. Hubbard accepted it in the name of the school. The Operatory was crowded to its capacity. Dr. J. B. Singleton was called upon and he expressed his appreciation of the honor done him. He was highly respected and told of work for the Dental Department. Hon J. C. Napier, one of the trustees, made a short address congratulatory to the dental students. Dr. A. L. Whitaker, Demonstrator of Prosthetic Dentistry, presented an exhibit from all of the classes of the various kinds of work done by the students. After inspecting this work the crowd inspected the new laboratories and the modern equipment of the Dental Department. Saturday morning the doctor addressed the Ewell Neil Dental Society at the large amphitheatre in the Dental Building on "How to Build an Office Practice." The address was instructive. Dr. Belsaw was made a member of the Ewell Neil Dental Society. Dr. J. H. Holman, Professor of Pathology, was present and gave an inspiring address to the students. Dr. Holman was greatly interested in the Dental Department. He was also made a member of the Society. Dr. Belsaw's address was a source of inspiration to the dental students who are looking forward to great things. 0- Dental Day at Meharry Auditorium was very interesting. The program was held April 12th, 1918 at 2 p.m. in the spacious and comfortable laboratory. The presentation was the presenting to the school of the Fountain Lavatory which was done in a most magnificent way in a very acceptable speech. The following program was rendered: The master of ceremonies was introduced by A. E. King, chairman of the Executive Committee: MAKING TOUR OF THE SOUTH CONGRESS SECRETARY INVADES ALABAMA, LOUISIANA AND ARKANSAS — ENTHUSIASTIC AUDIENCES—GALA DAY AT NEW ORLEANS.

JUDGE HARRISON HEROISM OF THE NE THEOLOGICAL AND URGES PATRIOTISM GRO "OVER THERE" TRAINING SCHOOL ASKS WHITES TO DEFER JUDGMENT—FIFTY YEARS HARDLY TIME TO GET UP—STIRRING ADDRESS (From the Birmingham News.) "We are asking that our white friends grant a continuance of the case, that they postpone judgment against the Negro race. Fifty years is hardly time enough to get up and wash our faces, and if a continuance of the case against us is granted we will come out with colors flying." said Judge William Harrison, Negro lawyer of Oklahoma City, who is giving his services to the government. Judge Harrison addressed a audience at Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, and this small crowd people he characterized as the better class of Negroes. Judge Harrison delivered what is termed the most eloquent address in Birmingham by the Negroes. He reviewed the strides the Negro race has made since given their freedom fifty years ago, and said that "we have made fairly good progress, and with the assistance of friends of the white race we will make better progress in the future." He begged that the Negroes in Birmingham adapt themselves to "the new order of things" that will come from the co-purpose. Judge Harrison asked for the co-purpose of the new years, and regretted that he in trouble get wide publicity when the good things done by our race are forgotten." Negros, he said, have fought for their country in every important battle. "At New Orleans the big Negros neglected their commanding officers to make breast-works of their bodies, and at Carrizal they fought like wild men. They guard the mansion of the biggest man in the United States—the President. I want the members of my race to be in the front ranks on the Western front. I want them to do a little bit better than all others. I want this to happen, because I am a Negro." The Negroes showed the speaker they are interested in the great war. The applause was loud and oceans filled. The audience yelled, "You're right." A GET-TOGETHER ENTERTAIN-MENT. Great was the success of the second concert given by the members of Stonewall Lodge No. 102 K. of P. Thursday night, April 11, 1918, who had as their guests their wives and sweethearts. Much credit is due Knight L. D. House, who was chairman of the entertainment, (for the skillful way in which he managed it, it was indeed gratifying to the brethren to see their wives and sweethearts mingle and co-mingle together. Their great lodge has at its head a man whom they love and consider the greatest on earth and call him its lamb, in the person of Anthony Thorpe, Jr. There is no earthy height, nor depth, nor things present or things to come greater in the minds of the men over which he presides than he. Why we think so he is ever in the defense of his lodge and a doer of Friendship Charity and Beaevolence. Attest: P. A. BOWMAN, K. of R. and S. NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL By R. W. Thompson Special to the Globe: Washington, D. C. April 16—President Wilson a few days ago sent to the Senate the nomination of Robert H. Terrill to succeed himself as Justice of the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia. The nomination is now in the hands of the Committee on the Judiciary and it is expected that confirmation will be reached at any moment. There is no opportunity confirmation will be ordered as soon as possible can be had in the executive session of the Senate. This is Judge Terrell's fifth appointment on the Municipal Bench. He was first named for the place in 1902 by President Roosevelt, largely upon the recommendation of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, and he has since been re-nominated each four years as his terms expired. He is the only colored man of the six justices of the court and is senior in point of service. Judge Terrell is a graduate of the law department of Harvard University, and is universally conceded to be one of the ablest and best equipped jurists in the District. His two nominations at the hands of a democratic administration is a record-breaking achievement and a distinct compliment to the race and to the splendid man so honored. Judge Terrell is a man of the people, popular alike with the masses and the classes and is public-spirited to the last degree. He is in demand on all notable occasions as a speaker and is facetiously dubbed the "Mayor of Coloree Washington." For several years he has been a member of the faculty of the law department of Howard University. THE NEWS IN A NUT SHELL.

Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, the platform Queen, addressed the Heptanore DR. MARCEL KNEETH TO ADDRESS MEETIN--DATE TO BE FIXED-$2,000,000 TO BE RAISED BY COMMITTEE. Special to the Nashville Globe. Washington, D. C. April 9, 1918. —Dr. Marcee Knecht, a member of the French High Commission, with headquarters at the Vanderbilt Hotel, New Kork City, an eloquent orator and statesman of puality, has accepted an invitation to address a patriotic meeting to be held in this city at an early date, under the auspices of the National Colored Comfort Committee, of which Ralph W. Tyler, former auditor for the Navy Department, is national secretary. Dr. Knecht's theme will be "The Heroic Effort of Colored Citizens" who have spoken large audiences of colored citizens in Cleveland, Cincinnati and New York Elaborate preparations are being made for his reception here. The main objective of the National Colored Soldiers' Comfort Committee is to raise a fund of $2,000,000 to aid the援藏 of colored soldiers called to the trout. Prof. Kelly Miller, of Howard University, is president of the organization, and J. C. Napler of Nashville, Tenn., former register of the Treasury, is national treasurer. Dr. Knecht has been so impressed by his observation of the colored fighters under the fire of the boche, in actual conflict that he is anxious to lend a hand in the effort of the race to help the loved ones these men have left behind in this land. Club at Somerville, Mass., last Saturday. This is one of the largest women's organizations in New England, embracing more than 890 of the representative women of that section.

Scott, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, is receiving marked courtesies in New England this week, visiting lodges in Boston, Providence and New Haven. He was banqueted Tuesday night by the lawyers of Boston, and mammoth receptions were given him by the anterleder herd in each of the cities in his itinerary. Relative to the proposed postponement of this year's convention, Mr. Scott is taking a referendum, in response to numerous requests to do so. He will be governed in his recommendation by the sentiment shown by the lodges of the country and by the leaders who have the welfare of the order at heart. --- Notwithstanding reports to the contrary, the colored employees at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing are receiving a special deal" at the hands at Director James L. Wilmeth. Hundreds of our best men and women are carried on the rolls of the Bureau and their compensation, working conditions and promotions or furloughs are the same as moted out to the whites in similar grades. Fairness to Mr. Wilmeth demands that the truth be told. Grover Cleveland Macklin, of Chicago, has been appointed as an elevator conductor in the main building of the Treasury Department. Joshua N. Anderson, a progressive business man and owners of a first class cafe at 1816 7th street northwest, has been designated as chairman of the committee on food conservation of Victoria Council No. 237, Independent Order of St. Luke.

He won his advancement by merit. * * * Prof. E. C. Williams, formerly principal of the M. Street High School, and now librarian of Howard University, addressed the Mu-So-Lit Club Friday night at the 12 Street Y. M. C. A. on "Some Phases of the Yellow Peril." Harry A. Nugent rendered musical selections. Walter J. Singleton presided. At the previous meeting of the Mu-So-Lit Club, Claude M. Rose, of the law department of Howard University, was the speaker. His theme was "A Call for Justice," and it was regarded as an especially strong appeal to the federal government to grant equal and exact justice to the colored American. Mr. Rose was formerly president of the Freebel-Pestalozzi Literary Society of Howard University. Dr. C. Sumner Wormley, Washington's foremost baritone, filled a successful singing engagement in Philadelphia last week. Nme. Anita Pattie Brown of Chicago, the favorite coloratura soprano, styled "The Bronze Tetrazzzini," is expected in the city shortly. She is concluding a remarkably successful tour of the South and West, covering the important cities from Texas and Arkansas to Florida, Georgia, the Caro Linas and Virginia. It is hoped that Washington's music lovers will have an opportunity to hear Nme. Brown, who, according to press reports of both races, is singing better this year than ever before. NUMBER 25 SIX MONTHS SESSION TO BE OPENED—ALL EAGER FOR OPENING—DATES ARE JUNE 24 TO JULY 22. Before the announcement of the fact: the demand for such an opportunity was so strong and persistent, which, together with our desire and purpose to do something to meet the crying needs of the hour, is the sum of our apology for offering emancipation from the mental serfdom, which handicaps the Baptist ministry and laity of Tennessee. EAGER FOR THE OPENING. Criticism and pessimism seem to have been routed by the energizing power of a larger vision and a determination to prepare for greater service in the Master's vineyard. "Study to show myself a workman that needeth not be ashamed," is the slogan of the pastors and ministers whose call to service preceded their complete preparation from a literary standpoint. Sunday school school superintendents and teachers whose services have been marked by the need to teach, but who now feel called up by those same virtues to prepare to cope with the trained minds of the young people and children from our public schools, presidents and officers of our B. Y. P. Us. missionary workers, in fact, the Baptists generally are not asking about the teachers or instructors, but the main questions are: When will the school open? What will be the tuition? They are not even asking about a place to stay or a place to eat. This is a very encouraging sign. Moderator T. A. Brown was in the city the other day, and he predicts that Rutheford County would be represented in large numbers. Moderator J. A. Evans can always be relied upon to see that his people get into every progressive move made by the Baptist moderator. J. C. Harding, David Sage of Middle Tennessee, calls us to the times, and all the ministers of his association are behind this movement. Moderator P. D. Dennis with his host of great preachers and Christian workers and many others, calls us that we should prepare for an enrollment of three of four hundred. INSTRUCTORS No pain will be spared to have some of the very best instructors the demonstration affords. The opening time has been set for Monday, June 24, 1918. Just after the Sunday School Congress, we hope to have the presence and service of Prof. David Abner the distinguished secretary of the National Baptist Educational Board, Dr. Ino. H. Frank, editor of the Union-Review and others. For further information, watch The Nashville Globe, or write J. L. Hardy, Secretary, Committee on Education, 714 Jefferson Street, Nashville, Tenn. Miss Narnie H. Burroughs, president of the National Training School for Women and Girls, has been scoring heavily with large audiences at Louisville, Nashville and Memphis. In these strategic centers she has discussed the lynching evil without gloves and has aroused all hearers to a keen sense of the danger that mob violence represents to the American Republic. Miss Burroughs will make a tremendous drive to have Congress pass the Dyer bill to make lynching a federal crime. * * * About fifty capable colored women are employed on the cleaning force at the Union Station and they are said to give as great a degree of satisfaction as the men formerly engaged in the work. . . . Miss Estella Coffey, a fashionable modiste, and Mr. Fred Carr, of Boston, were married recently. Mrs. Annie Lawrence Lucas, the brilliant poetess and playwright, is planning to reproduce her stirring emotional drama, "Her Silent Power," which created such a furore last spring at Pythian Hall. The cadets of the colored high school will hold their annual competitive drill at American League Park June 6. It is expected that six companies will compile for the prize. The Naval Reserve announces the need of colored men as mess attendants and states that the place pays well and offers excellent chances for advancement. Firemen are also needed. Names of applicants may be sent to the United States Employment Service; 1410 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. Among the trusted attachments of this office is Alex. H. Underwood, well-known in business circles as a caterer and for years as superintendent of the Howard Park playgrounds. The 12th Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A., under the supervision of John W. Davis, is making a "drive for 1000 members with a prospect of bringing in the desired number. S. W. Rutherford is general chairman of the campaign committee and R. P. Hamillin is director. J. P. Bond and J. P. Jorter are division leaders, with many team captains as assistants. Each team is to secure fifty or more members. The colored business men are waking up to the fact that the 1918 meeting of the National Business League is to be held August 21, 22 and 23 at Titanic City and the indications are the many will be in attendance. President J. C. Napier and Secretary Emmett J. Scott are making up an attractive Program.

To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers with Seeby's leaves the hair soft and duffy and imprints a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstrict or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from hisoleser or send us the price and we will write a price to Seeby Drug Co. 79 East 130th Street New York City, for a sample of Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper.—Ady. or Prompt and Efficient SERVICE CALL LEE & CO. and Embalmers: Phone M. 389 4165th Ave. N.

The Pathe film company has given Emmett J: Scott a permanent place in the archives of the immortals. A few days ago the operators of this world-famous concern invited Mr. Scott to pose for the weekly pictorial review of current events, a Pathe specialty, and as a result the films are now carrying the race's special war adviser in characteristic attitudes on the steps of the Pennsylvania Avenue front of the State, War and Navy Building, bowing to the multitude assembled and wearing the smile that won't come off." The picture is with an excellent one and is being greeted with applause in all of the houses in which it has been shown. It is a rare contribution to the art and the history of these stirring times. 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 the sermon for the Congress this year is a man of the younger school, one young in thought but old in experience; a gospel minister; old in the pastoral care of a preacher 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 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 and become a school of 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 show what the boy is to on our fun church life; on Sunday at 11 o'clock a pubilb orator will to make the Negro Baptist immortal and for which he is quoted, 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, cape and pennants. In the line this year will be the usual number 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 speciality of playing for this Sunday School Congress parade. There will be the Boy Cadets under the command of Commanding General of the Boy Cadet Movement 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. WANTED AT ONCE Three printers—steady work to the right man. Also three good men in our bindery department. Address all communication to the printing department, National Baptist Publishing Board, 523 Second Avenue North, Nashville, Tenn. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY APRIL 19, 1918. THE NEW YORK TIMES SCHOOL CONGRESS CONGRESS SONGS. "Hall the Baptist Congress" will be Sung by Thousands. "On. On Metasas and Galedas." "Christian Soldiers and Maidens." With Many Other Will be Heard. "On. On Metokas and Galedas" is the title of the Metokas 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 Metokas 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 Metokas and Galeda Magazine. The paraphernula 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 opportunity to demonstrate what they are doing at home. Metokas 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 commoners; 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. Their 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 the minds of the people as a master mind in training congregational singers. It was encouraged that there would be an orchestra as a master mind in the chorus, with a piano and a 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 what Alexandra has in mind of local talent, and to see how they have been rounded into form in so short a time. Line 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 and 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 Every Phase of Sunday School Work Will be Given Special Attention Through Departmental meetings Each Afternoon. Every worker in the Sunday School who attends the Sunday School Congress at Alexandra, June 17, will find in addition to the general sessions where all enjoy the work and the work, a department of bible. BIRD'E EYE VIEW, NATIONAL BAPTIST PUBLISHING BOARD. Nashville, Tenn. tical 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 home, be engaged in the Cradle 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 yourself may demonstrate the many helpful things you have perhaps about instruction in practice in school. Give the benefit of your experience that at the same time be benefited by the experience others will give, by attending the developmental meetings. BRASS BANDS. there was time when it was almost impossible to have the right kind of music in sufficient 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 practically every song that will be sung at the Congress. They were the past three years, and the great force that issued such favorable impression in the condition 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. SOCIOLOICAL 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 upheaval. The course was taught in Vicksburg, the addresses that were delivered along the lines 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 at 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. C. Hickey, T. H. Simpson and H. Y. McCowan compose the quartet. They declare this quartet has prepared itself to render service by singing the very best religious song—songs found in the ORIGIN OF THE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS. MEMORIES Of Fifty Years Recalled. THE appearance of the National Jubilee Melodies a new song book containing all the old jubilee and plantation songs set to music, is creating the widest kind of comment in every section of the United States. This is attributed to by hundreds of letters that have been received since the song book appeared and since it was so successfully throughout the session of the great National Bastist Convention which just closed its meeting. A sample of what the people say will be of interest: "I have examined the National Jubilee Melodies and found some old treasures that I would not like to part with, a fragment of the times and verses that have been carried in my brain and memory since I was a boy fory ye rsage, but this is the first time I have ever seen them in print or set to music. The Little luncer cues grammatically speaking that one thinks he finds in the book are but grune evidence of its originality. We would not have them elsewhere, as this would rob the work of its identity, and it is my desire to get a work as near as possible spoken in the peculiar manner of the old time anti-hellenian man and women that laid the foundation for our race on which we are building beautifully. I think that their peculiar style should be preserved and handed down to posterity." (Stilmed) ANNEW DUFFIE. The price of the National Jubilee Melodies song book with all of these old time songs, is 30c per copy by mail, postage paid, or $360 per dozen, express charges not paid. Send 30c for a sample copy and see for the first time in your life the songs of our foreparents set to must! books published by the National Baptist Publishing Board. In addition to the quartet there will be a club from Shreveport consisting of eighteen members and the Alexandria organization made up of workers from the various Sunday schools there. This will be three singing organizations which will augment the chorus of two hundred voices, which chorus will be made up entirely of Alexandria singers under leadership of Prof. Johnson, the Sunday School Congress chorus director from Nashville, Tenn. EXHIBITS OF SUNDAY SCHOOL LITERATURE AND PARAPHER LITERATURE Helps on Sunday School work of every description whether it be literature, models, maps, charts, banners, buttons, pins or anything along that line will be shown and demonstrated at the Sunday School Congress. A special department known as the De ORIGIN OF THE SCHOOL Some Facts About the Sunday School Congress—Thirteenth Annual Session meets in Alexandria, La. June 12-17. The Beginning of the Sunday School Congress Movement. MEM Of Fifty Ye partment of Exhibits and Paraphernalia is conducted at each annual session.

While you are at the Congress study this department, come to see the many things you want to know about and that you have seen perhaps advertised for use in the Sunday School. Visit the department of Exhibits and Paraphernalia while at the Congress. 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 halted with joy and'dight. Strong editorials 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, Muskegue, Okla.; 1914, Beaumont, Tex.; in 1915, Birmingham, Ala.; in 1916, Vicksburg, Miss.; 1917, in Nashville, Tenn. This year in Alexandria, La. 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 infected 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. ORIESears Recalled. THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY COMPLETE HISTORY EVER COMPILED. OUR CHURCHES TAKE THIS BOOK NUE BAPT'SI CHURCH.

Ever since the first of November, the Fireside School Training Classes for Christian Workers have held weekly sessions. These classes close the last of April and the closing exercises, combined with the Recognition Day service of the Fireside School, will be held on Thursday night, April 25th, at eight o'clock, at the Y. M. C. A. A splendid program has been prepared. There will be Bible exercises by the morning and evening classes, special music and addresses by Dr. A. M. Townsend. An interesting feature will be the presentation of certificates to those who have read Hope for one year or more. A hearty invitation to attend is extended to all. The program will begin promptly at eight o'clock with a processional by the classes. A recent interested visitor at the Fireside School was Prof. J. W. Moncrief, who stopped in Nashville to see this work and call on his former student in Franklin College. Miss Ada F. Morgan. Prof. Moncrief was on his way to Chicago from Ashville, N. C. where he and Mrs. Moncrief have been spending a part of the winter. For many years he has been an instructor in history and is an authority on that subject. He is at the head of the Church History department of Chicoa University, where he has been for a number of years. A. M. E. CHURCH PROSPEROUS Washington. April 18.—Migration and the world war did not erupt the general church finances of the A. M. E. Church during the fiscal year ending March 31. Prof. John R Hawkins, financial secretary of the denomination, reporting to the financial meeting held Wednesday of this week at the headquarters of the department, 1541 14th street, Northwest, that $245,522.44 had been collected in "dollar money" receipts during the year. This is an increase of $21,924.52 over the previous year. Only three Episcopal districts showed decrease—the Fifth, Ninth and Twelfth. In calling the meeting to order, Bishop B. F. Lee, chairman of the bishop delivered a brief address, in which he recounted the events of the denomination, mentioned the world war and recapitulated the demands that these times are placing on the church. The following members of the board were present: Revs. M. W. Thornton, A. L. Gaines, T. H. Jackson, A. J. Carey, S. P. Roseborough, R. W. Mance, C. H. Shelto, S. P. Johnson, J. E. Starks, J. D.

MORRIS SAYS HE BEGAN TO IMPROVE AFTER TAKING THE FIRST FEW DOSES OF LUNG-LUNG-VITA "I had a severe case of grip and a terrible cough and, in fact, I was in a very bad shape," says Mr. A. L. Morris, who lives at 1722 St. Louis street, Nashville, Tenn., in a statement given a few days ago. "I had tried several remedies without getting any relief at all and had become worried over my condition until I tried Lung-Vita. At that time the cough was so bad that it was almost unbearable, after starting to take Lung-Vita the cough had disappeared and the cough was much better. Now the cough is gone entirely. I do not think Lung-Vita has an equal as a remedy for grip, coughs or colds. You will not regret having tried this medicine." Lung-Vita is sold by druggists and dealers. (Adv.) to Waters A. M. E.

She planted long before it was time, somewhere in the middle of March when she caught a day that was warm and balmy. She pulverized the ground right good, laid out the rows with extra precision and then she planted some Kentucky wonder beans, covered them nicely and awaived their germination. Some how or other those beans came up smiling, and are up yet with abeyance. They have mastered all sorts of frosty and snow weather without any kind of protection and see at this hour looking as green as green can be, strong, healthy and are making a very vehement growth despite the viciousness of unseasonable weather. Now we invite all of our near and dear friends to give our wife's bean patch the once over. That bean patch met and knocked out every frost, freeze, and snow that has tried to sneak up behind it and take undue advantage of its earliness and verdancy. It landed a solar plexus on the snow storm of the 10th inst, and the said snow storm went down with a dull sickening thud. And, only a few days before that bleamed bean patch stood up against Mr. Jack Frost unprotected, and made Mr. Frost take the count in six rounds, Hail has no terrors for this bean patch. Why doggone, if it don't stand squarely up flat footed and put to route any hail or sleet that tries to put one over in the 3rd Ward. This bean patch we surmise, has survived the turmoil and strife of March and early April, and we opine will settle down now strictly to the business of making a bean crop for the mistress. We anticipate with salivary gusto, the day when friend wife pan in hand will gather the first mess of her beans. There will be much rejoicing in our household on that stupendous festive occasion. We are sure we shall be delegated to buy the old ham hock for that triumphant time which we shall do with the proudest pleasure of our life. And then when the fateful moment has arrived, the beans well done, flanked by young onions, cold butter milk, and corn bread, we are called to the feast O, joy; O, eternal bliss, O, raptures of raptures! we shall forget all of those who have done things to us they should not have done. We shall not speak unkindly even of the fellow ho owes us four dollars and refuses to pay. We'll cheerfully forgive that genteel gentleman who called us an ummitated liar. Yes, we'll forget and forgive and think only of heavenly and beautiful things, of the "land that is fairer than this, of the golden streets, of the new Jerusalem," and speak softly to our wife saying, "please pass the beans." THE PRESIDENTIAL BEE THE PRESIDENTIAL BEE. If Col. Roosevelt is playing for the presidency, so is McAdoo. The Globe has no objection to the entertaining of a presidential ambition by the present secretary of the treasury. The fact that he is Mr. Wilson's son-in-law does not strike this newspaper as being of any consequence. From the present outlook, it is hard to see how he can be deprived of the democratic nomination in 1920 if he still wants it. While he does not possess certain of the magnetic qualities of the typical politician, that affects merely his availability, not his merit. Distribution of McAdoo's addresses to the American soldiers in France is hardly a proper activity of the government this time, but then few of the things that the committee on public information does are beyond criticism The only point the Globe cares to make at this time is that the administration's friends cannot in fairness asperse the motives of a possible republican candidate without laying the administration itself just as wide open to similar asperation. The less of that talk is indulged in the better. The Globe suspects that Col. Roosevelt would like to be president, and that his principal reason for wanting the White House has actuated only in to be president is the conviction, perhaps mistaken, that it would be for the good of the country. The Globe also has not the least doubt but that Mr. McAdoo, in his ambition to reach the human degree by personal ambition—that he is confident his election would be a national asset. Both Col. Roosevelt and Secretary McAdoo are unimpugnable patriots. The whole discussion is one that would better be postponed as long as possible. It cannot be postponed if administration defenders, forgetting they have a candidate of their own, choose to meet the colonel's arguments by insinuating a selfish motive. HADLEY PARK The agreeable news came to us that the City Park Commission was beautifying Hadley Park. This is as it should be. The park has been the laughing stock of our out of town visitors. There has been nothing parkesque about it, just an old worn out corn field devoid of shrubbery and flowers, nothing enticing, nothing to make a fellow want to spend an afternoon in its confines. We trust the news of the improvements are true, and that the good work will continue until we have a beautiful park. We believe if the matter is put right squarely up to the park commission, that these gentlemen will do the right thing by making the park a place of beauty which will compare favorably with the Negro parks in other cities. Let the good work go on until sweet Annie has no abiding place. Men who wish to serve their country must get hold of higher ideals than mob law; that America has dedicated itself to a war for humanity and humanity cannot be glorified by mobs that go about hanging victims or painting houses yellow, or compelling ignoramuses to kiss the flag. "We need sanity as well as patriotism." Fuel Administrator Garfield has intimated that the railroads are falling down a little in supplying coal cars to the mines. In the absence of vectors General McAdoo on other important business won't somebody please dispute Garfield? The clocks are going it everywhere Now if the weather bureau will kindly set the weather ahead a fortnight or so, we can set out those tomato units that have got such a good start under the glass. That was a splendid write up Billy Lewis gave the Smarter Set in last week's Freeman. The Lewis fellow is some writer and then some. He is an ornament to the profession, deserving a whole field of American Beauties. And after the war is victoriously over the commonest sense of decency will require that all Americans look the other way while the Goddess of Liberty for one gleeful, unconventional moment stands on her head. Remembering in time the real leader of the family. "Home Run" Baker, the secretary of war took a new grip on his war club and singled neatly to right. Old Sport has just passed the house in a helluva hurry, his caudal appendage was decorated with half of a tinware store. We were extremely glad to shake the hand of our true and tried friend Richard Hill, last week. We love him because he is just what he is, no more, no less. It is a little early yet to plan your coal bin engagement on the theory that you will use no more fuel until next fall. Speaking of the war party in Germany, it wouldn't be a bad idea if we could adopt some of their ideas if not their ideals. A regiment of pool hall loafers might not be much on the advance, but it's a sure thing they would pick up their feet when the occasion for retreat arose. For some countries, moreover, an annual celebration of their entry into the war is useful as a reminder that the war is still on. With summer almost here there is a tendency towards forgetting next winter's coal supply. There was the same tendency last spring. And the war will last—the war will last—well, the war will, last until it has been won. And, in the meantime, while eagerly waiting to grab up the new Liberty bonds, buy W. S. S. The food authorities lift the embar go on hens tomorrow. Chicken dumpings for dinner Sunday, yum, yum. Glorious news, the late frost and snows never touched the pork saler crop. O. joy.

TROUSEDALE COUNTY HOLDS PATRIOTIC MEETING. Rey P. J Coleman Presides Bethpage, Tenn., April 12, 1918. Rev. P. J. Coleman, presiding elder of the Nashville District of the C. M. E. Church, held three rousing big patriotic meetings here this week. He came here on official church business, and after finishing his church duties, he called a patriotic meeting for Monday night at the Methodist Church, and Tuesday night at the Baptist by request of the pastor and deacons. These meetings were well attended. Rev. Coleman was assisted by Revs W. D. Greer, J. K. Hughes and others. Telling speeches were made by all three of these gentlemen, who spoke of the causes leading up to the war, the part that the Negroes have always played in all the great wars in which their country was involved, citing the wars, and valorous deeds, and urged the colored people to see to it that the record be worthily sustained by the people of the field, in the conservation of food, and other, and along all other lines of industrial endeavor that will prove sane and helpful to our Country in winning this great world war. This community, the Gravel Hill neighborhood, is composed exclusively of colored, having inherited their tracts of land from their forefathers who settled in the early part of the last century.

After a two nights meeting at Gravel Hill, we went to Beach Grove and other colored settlements some six or seven miles from Gravel Hill, and near Hartsville, Tennessee. Here we held a third record breaking patriotic meeting. Many came out and listened intensely to the speeches made by Revs. Coleman and W. D. Greer, who were introduced by Rev. A. J. Blakemore, acting pastor, the pastor Rev. Smith being absent. Every department of win the war work was organized, and energetic men and women of each community being placed at the head of each.

The date of the Pearl High intra-school debate has been definitely fixed for Friday night. April 26th, at 8:15 o'clock. Wishing to avoid any conflict of dates with literary exercises in the three colored colleges about the city and with events at the State Normal School, Dr. F. G. Smith, the principal, has postponed the debate until the above mentioned proach of the celebration of the annual Commencement exercises and the great amount of preparation necessary to make the occasion a success, the debate must be held without further delay. A high state of friendly rivalry has been created between the young men and the young* women, and the school is about equally divided between the cherry and the white. The young ladies who will defend the affirmative have been well coached and declare that they will give the young men the race of their lives. The young men, on the other hand, who defend the negative, state that while they believe in courtesy and chivalry to the gentleness and empathy that they win the debate. Enthusiasm runs high and the public may expect an interesting contest. The subject is "Resolved, That foreign immigration to the United States should be further restricted by the imposition of an educational test." Special music is being prepared for the occasion. The proceeds will be used to complete the fund for a stage curtain for the school. REV. T. W. HAMPTON ADDRESSES PEARL STUDENTS. The students of Pearl High listened to an able and practical address this week by Rev. T. W. Hampton of the A. and I. State Normal School. Each year, since he was called to the State Normal, Rev. Hampton has paid the high school a visit and has always addressed the student body. The speaker emphasized the need of thorough, practical education, and contrasted the educational opportunities of the city boy over the country boy. He advised the students that when they had completed their high school, they were in the cities, where their talent and help were not so badly needed, but to return to the rural districts and try to help the less tortunate members of EVERY DOLLAR IN A SAVINGS BANK ACCOUNT makes for preparation to embrace opportunities for money making when offered.

Work, the Professor of Latin and Director of the Mozart Society at Fisk University, the Pearl High School Choral Union will be able to present to the public a new Jubilee Song on the night of the Annual Commencement. This song has never yet been published and could not be obtained except through Prof. Work. The faculty and students appreciate this act of kindness, on the part of who left his work at Fisk, that he might devote the time necessary to teach the Union this song. The students hope by the time Commencement arrives to be able to render it in a manner acceptable to the public. GEO. H. ANDERSON SELECTED PHOTOGRAPHER At a recent business meeting of the Senior Class, George H. Anderson was selected as official photographer for the class of 1918. Mr. Anderson has improved greatly in the art of making pictures since coming to Nashville and the Committee on Photographs was very much impressed with his styles and prices. It is stated that Dr. F. G. Smith, the principal will introduce an innovation this year in regard to the time of taking the pictures. Heretofore, the pictures have not been taken until after the last examination and until candidates for graduation knew whether they had passed or not and were entitled to graduation. The large class group was then styled the graduation suit and caused a curious rush and a great rush to get photographs completed. Dr. Smith, now has in contemplation the taking of all candidates for graduation who are in their last year and calling the group the Senior Class. This will permit pictures to be taken and the group placed on exhibition in May. ALUMNI MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN A SUCCESS. The response to the call sent out by Mrs. Edwina Smith Johnson, the president of the Pearl High School Alumni Association, for new members, has been very gratifying. Many of the graduates, who have married and moved to distant states have sent letters enclosing a membership fee, because they wished to have a part in the purchase of the stage curtain and the victrola. Among these were Mrs. Carrie Bryant Johnson of Atlanta, Ga., Dr. W. B. Davis, of Chattanooga, and Dr. Ira Watson of Lewisburg, Tenn. Mrs. Lizzie Allen Darden of Petersburg, Va. THE APRIL HIGH SCHOOL VOICE. The April issue of the High School Voice is out and, is possibly the best number of the paper that has been issued. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. George Gore, the editor, and his associates for the great effort they are exerting to make the school paper a success. Recently the editor and Mr. Leslie Howell made a trip to the Hume-Fogg High School where they called upon the editor or the "High School Echo," the school paper of the white High School. The boys claim that they were kindly received and were shown every coutesy, with an offer of whatever assistance they might need in the way of suggestions, helpful advice, or the benefit of a past teacher. The Voice of greater success. The Hume-Fogg Echo was organized eighteen years ago and is now recognized as one of the best high school magazines in the country. Let's hope that after the lapse of eighteen years, the Pearl High School Voice will show as great an improvement. VISITORS AT PEARL. Recent visitors at Pearl were Sergeant Eugene Winkfield of the 10th Cavalry, Sergeant Joe Dobbins and Prof. H. L. Keith. Sergeant Winkfield has seen service in Mexico. Sergeant Joe Dobbins is with Company G. under Capt. C. O. Hadley and will soon sail for France. UNITED STATES BOYS WORKING RESERVE. One of the best addresses ever delivered to the Pearl High School student body was that of Prof. Albert Williams, State High School for Tennessee. In company with Mr. Hart of the white Y. M. C. A. and Mr. William Sanders, executive secretary of the Colored Y. M. C. A. Prof. Williams came out to present the subject of the Boy's Working Reserve to the students. His address was very impressive, showing the uttermost need for the young men to enroll in the Reserve. Each point was made by a doctory which was highly enjoyed. At the conclusion of the address, each boy received a card which he is to sign after consultation with his parents. The probability is that every boy in Pearl High School will be enrolled. A vote of thanks was extended Prof. Williams. FOR SALE—Great bargain, 2-room house, with 5, 6 or 7 lots on easy monthly payments, near Roger Williams University. For particulars call at H. I.

You who could be at the War Council of the Woman's Committee Council of National Defense know of the Resolution passed by the women of the State to absolutely abstain from wheat if necessary, and to voluntarily go on a ration of three pounds per month for the individual instead of the six pounds which the Food Administration is requiring of all people. I am quoting you the resolution which was adopted by the women and signed Genieve A. Montague, Chairman, Lalla Block Armstein, Sadie W. Overton and Maggie W. Caldwell. Resolved. That we, the Women's Committee of the Council of National Defense of Tennessee, in session assembled, do hereby place the Food Administration of the United States that we will faithfully observe all of the Food Administration regulations, and on behalf of ourselves and speaking for the patriotic women of Tennessee we will solemnly record our willings and obtain absolutely from the use of all wheat flour products if the exigencies of our beloved nation should require it. Resolved further, That we do now pledge ourselves not to use until the next harvest an aggregate of more than three pounds of wheat flour per month per person. In order that we may faithfully keep this pledge in letter and in spirit, we agree that we will carefully weigh all of the wheat flour products, in every form, that may be placed on our tables. We further agree that we will not patronize any public eating place that does not loyally observe the regulations of the Food Administration."

That is a fine example of community work, and the campaign has been warmly supported by two of the splendid local colored papers, "The Houston Observer" and "The Texas Freeman." The Prairie View Standard published by the Prairie View College, Prairie View, Texas, in its last issue of April 6th describes the visit of the members of the Houston Business League to the College and gives a full account of the interesting addresses delivered by the members of the League. The party from Houston included Messrs. R. L. Andrews, L. G. Alexander, John Hubert, Phil Herbert with their wives and friends. Mr. Andrews, who has been a successful merchant in Houston for nearly eighteen years, gave the students at Prairie View this very significant and important principle of business management. "To have a determined will, patience and a clean conscience is half the journey to success. I started out in the grocery business seventeen years ago in the down town district. The first seven years proved almost a failure, but I had faith in God and didn't give up. I was always honest with my weights, and gained the confidence and patronage of my friends. My rent for the first year was $50. a month but increased each year until now it is $300. a month." (To be continued next week.) WANTED—A housekeeper at once, four in family, all grown.

BRILLIANT RECEPTION Chicago, Ill.—On Wednesday, the 10th of April, Mr. and Mrs. Albert B. George gave a brilliant "At Home" reception. This was just two weeks after her marriage. Mrs. George was Miss Maude J. Roberts, the noted singer who had thrilled many audiences by her beautiful voice and who, according to experts in music, was destined to take a high place among the prima donnas of the world. Cupid, however, brushed music aside and a happy bride has received the congratulations of a host of friends. The wedding was a quiet home affair, only the family and close personal friends attending. The reception, however, was largely attended, more than two hundred persons shaking hands with the bride and her party. Besides the bride and groom, Miss Irene Hudlin, one of the most brilliant of Chicago's artists, is sooty in her Assistant State's Attorney Edward E. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson were of the reception party. The house was profusely, yet tastefully decorated with American Beauty Roses and most of Chicago's elite were present. It may not be amiss to say a word here about Mr. George. He is one of the leading attorneys at the bar in Chicago and has been connected with many brilliant cases in court here. He has a large and lucrative practice. He is a member of the distinguished George family of Wash. linton, D. C. Though the wedding was quiet, Mr. and Mrs. George were the recipients of a number of useful and costly gifts, and Mrs. George was the object of two beautiful pre-nuptial showers—one given by Mrs. Edward E. Wilson and the other by Mrs. James A. Greene, Mr. and Mrs. George reside at 3231 Vernon ave. nue. General Clark will acquit himself nobly in the debate. CHICAGO (ILL.) Robt.

The Providence Baptist Church of which Dr. Prince is pastor has increased a hundred members. There are more than 900 Negro postal clerks in Chicago. There are more than 900 clerks and carriers in the Chicago post office, and strange it is they are being put in all the prominent places, while the whites are taking the minor places, this is due however to the fact that that class of whites who are capable of holding the better paying positions are finding better positions in other lines of U. S. work. The factories use a host of colored girls. WIN THE WAR BY WORKING SIX DAYS PER WEEK The time worn custom of observing Saturday, or part of it, as a holiday has almost become a law in the South, especially among farmers. At a meeting of the Negro farm demonstration agents for the State of Alabama, held March 20, 21, 22, at Tuskegee Institute, the following resolutions were adopted unanimously: Wereas, our country is in the midst of a world-wide war, the most gigantic in all history, it therefore becomes necessary that our people living in the rural districts, many of whom do not realize that we are really at war, be aroused to the seriousness of the struggle; and even more should be utilized to arouse our people and secure the co-operation of the white landlords and merchants; therefore be it Resolved, that the colored farm demonstration agents working in the state of Alabama from themselves into an organization to be known as the "U. S. (Uncle Sam's) Saturday Service League" and that campaign agents in the state be instructed to conserve farm labor to help meet the unprecedented demand on the nation in supplying the much needed food and feed stuffs for ourselves and our allies. To change this practice is indeed no easy task, yet to allow such to exist at a time when our Government is taking hundreds of thousands of farmers to farm, farms, is nothier less than criminal In order to successfully carry on this propaganda we must have the confidence and secure the co-operation of all the people. For example, first in order to make up the deficiency in farm labor, the farmers will have to work longer hours and six days per week. Second, the landlords will be called upon to increase wages. Third, the merchants will have to forego some of the usual Saturday trade. Unless the three above agencies co-ordinate, it is realized that every little can be accomplished. The method adopted by the U. S. Saturday Service League for furthering this propaganda throughout the State, is through posters, registration cards and service badges. Every ten or fifteen days a series of suggestive posters are issued. For instance, the two posters issued this week are as follows: WHAT YOU SHOULD RAISE TO HELP WIN THE WAR. "Wn the War by Working Six Days Per Week." April: FOOD AND FEED! May: FOOD AND FEED! June: FOOD AND FEED! July: FOOD AND FEED! August: FOOD AND FEED! September: FOOD AND FEED!

Holsev Tuckegee Institute, Ala., "The war is bringing the people of this country into a close bond of sympathy and understanding and it is my sincerely belief that, when conditions are readjusted, ours will be a better and stronger country. Members of the race throughout the country are cooperating with the white people in local Red Cross, Food, Liberty Bond, and through these new relationships, 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 the newspapers 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 "sights of the times" are significant. I notice that the leading Press Clipping Bureaus are clipping editors from Negro papers in an increasing degree "What the Negro thinks" is becoming more and more 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. Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Sometimes, I think it remarkable how the Business League officials have been able to give the Local Leagues and to the business men of the race, such valuable and important suggestions. Sometimes ago a pamphlet of suggestions was sent out to all the Local Leagues could co-operate with merwould be a good thing if the Local League could co-operate with merchants, where the number of such merchants were sufficient, by urging them to engage, either individually or cooperatively, a trained bookkeeper or auditor who could assist the merchants and other business men in keeping accurate records, so as to keep tract of their profits and looses and thus help to prevent them from shipping into many of the pitfalls of business.

I am quoting briefly from his article: "Commercial statistics and my own experiences of more than twelve years in the bankruptcy court proved that out of every hundred men in business today, about twenty-five will fall within five years. Fifty will fall in ten years, and in twenty years less than a dozen will have succeeded out of the previous one hundred. "If nine out of ten fall, what assurance have you that you will be the lucky tenth?" "The life of the retail business is reported to be only six years." And again his article proceeds as follows: "Very often the man who paid cash for his first stock makes subsequent purchases on credit. Money realized from the sale of the first goods enables him to meet bills for the other and have some left over. He thinks what is left over is profit, but most of it is original investment. Little by little he lives up to his first investment entirely and gets further and further in debt. Then the awakening comes with a crash. "Don't just think you are making money—get the facts, for that supposed profit may actually be a loss.

AN APPEAL TO THE TWELVE MILLION NEGROES OF THE UNITED STATES Our Nation is engaged in a war for its very existence. To win this war we must save food, grow great crops of foodstuffs and substitute other foods for those most easily shipped to our associates in this war and our soldiers in France, thousands of whom are men of your own race. The Food Administration realizes that the Negro people of this Nation can be of the utermost help in food conservation and food production. Every Negro man, woman and child can render a definite service by responding to the appeal and instructions of the Food Administration and its representatives. The Negroes have shown themselves loyal and respon- sive in every national crisis. Their greatest opportunity of the present day, to exercise this loyalty, is to help save and gro wwood. I am confident that they will respond to the suggestions of the Food Administration and the Christian mission of their Christianism for the winning of this war. HERBERT HOOVER DEATH OF MR. CHARLES AMOS. Mr. Charles Amos of Heffernan St. departed this life Tuesday, April 8, after a brief illness of five days caused by pneumonia. Mr. Amos was the elder son of his mother, Mrs. —— Amos, who has been ill for more than a year, and was the husband of Mrs. Rosa B. Amos. It will be remembered that Mr. and Mrs. Amos and Mrs. Rose have two weeks before his death and it is sad to think that Mrs. Amos is bride and a widow too in so short a time. She has the sympathy of a host of relatives and friends. Mr. Amos was a young man of sterling qualities and made many friends. He was a member of the church of his home town, Lyville. Surviving him are his wife, mother, two sisters and one brother and a boss of the house and friends. Services were held from the home Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Interment at Greenwood Cemetery, Tayler and Co. in charge. THIRD SUNDAY SERVICE AT NORMAL.

Attwell, business agent of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, was in the city several days of last week, called here for an important conference with the food administration at the suggestion of Director Herbert C. Hoover. Mr. Attwell was named as food administrator for the State of Alabama some months ago, to supervise the work of food conservation among the colored people of the various counties. The vigor which he put in his work was won by the organization he built up throughout Alabama attracted the favorable attention of the conservation leaders all over the South and comments touching his methods and plans reached the ears of the authorities at Washington While here, Mr. Attwell gave a complex survey of the work he has been doing among the colored farmers, housewives, gardeners, and food handlers of every description in Alabama, and it is understood that steps have been taken to introduce his system in other states of the South, with Mr. Attwell's supervisory jurisdiction largely extended. His original ideas as to the value of enlisting the thousands of colored cooks, butlers, housewives and buyers, as well as regular farmers and gardeners, in the Southland were eye-openers to many who have been scouted the policy of organizing the Negro scientifically into the food conservation movement. Mt. Attwell is an enthusiast in the work and is getting results that will go far to aid the nation in winning its war for democracy. "THE LOYALTY OF A RACE" "The Loyalty of a Race" is to be a "corker." The Morris-Hamburg-Miller syndicate of movie photographers secured life-like views of the gallant 368th at Baltimore in the act of being impressed by President Wilson and this will be one of the stellar features of the big film projected for the National Colored Soldiers' Comfort Committee by Ralph W. Taylor, general secretary. If all goes well, the picture with its thrilling scenes and gripping story, will be seen at the Washington theater and will then go to the country for a run. The goal sought by the committee is to raise a fund of $2,000,000 for the relief of the dependents of the colored soldiers called to the colors. TO EXPLAIN AMERICA'S WAR AIMS The War Department has invited a number of colored orators and writers to serve as members of the Speakers' Committee to deliver addresses, write articles and otherwise stimulate the patriotism of the Negro people. They are expected to speak directly and plainly on the vital issues of the day and to enlighten their own way all classes of the race on the war aims of the government. Some of the members of the committee here include T. T. Toll, Ralph W. A. Tyler, R. W. Thompson, J. A. Cobb, Armond W. Scott, Bishop I. N. Ross, J. Finley Wilson, W. J. Singleton and others. Many speakers of prominence in all of the states are embraced in the list. DR. J. A. JONES AGAIN IN THE CITY. After several days of strenuous out-of-town activities, Dr. J. A.

Judging from the tone, ol tae Ge nowinauonal papers and writers Uuat have appeared on the scene since our peace conference in Mem- phils, oue would inevitably conclude that ere are, thre classe ox groups of Baptists in the family of Baptists as i relates to the peace movement: First, in group one there appears to be those who seem not to care either tor peace or union, ‘hey simply appear satisiied and de- Lermined in our respective eatups and regard not the weltare or association of ther brethren ot opposite opin- tons, ‘They profess to have peace of iufud and heart aud perfect ease of cousclence. ‘The possibility of doing a larger work for the Master, re- sulting from a umted purpose and understanding soems never to have ‘reached their minds. ‘The idea of a larger happiness, a fuller sense of Joy resuiting trom the reconciliation of brethren or children of the same family seems never to have crossed their vision, Tho Culdllment of the universal principle of “together we stand and divided we fall” seems strange doctrine to them. ‘The prayer of our blessed Saviour, “Fa- ther, make them one even as we are one,” seems to have no attractive: ness for them, From their writings ‘one would consider that this group would be very much displeased in deed if any movement looking to better understanding among Baptists should succeed. This group, how ever, 1s small, It is not our purpos to criticise any group as to ain cority, but giving themselves t prayer and holy thinking, we see no how they reach such a conclusion But, however, contrary to logic an | higher ideals, we here grant to eac || group that we claim for ourselves- || integrity, honesty of purpose an -] Christian anxiety. ‘. '| Secondly, there appears to be ai ;Jother group of Baptists who ar »| thinking and expressing themselv {in quite loud and strong terms co ;| cerning the peace movement, ‘Th ;| group is contending for peace ar e | reconeiliation without union of bod n| or conventions. Higher in purpo S| and nobler in thought, in our opinio "does this group stand and shine o @| over the first group. ‘They reason | -| telligently and have much to the @ | credit; and the Baptists could not i; historically accused of depart | from all precedents,, some examp! «1 of which have worked wonderful tt) well should they adopt this cours ij | {e cannot be dented that when all t 7 ites were together in one migh ne | convention, but Iittle real constr 1@) tive work was done; that the bo of | had grown unintelligent as to pro e. dure; that polities entered it; 1 se|autocracy played a mighty har as/ that the higher and richer purpo es of our organized efforts “to spre {the Kingdom of Christ, to butld a age and effective institutions NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY APRIL 19, 1918. adjuvants to this kingdom spreading” seemed to have been lost in the strug- le for place and for power and for something else we may not name here. Hence, this second group con- tends that a division of thts large unwieldy body into two camps with denominational understandivgs and a. working peace would be fur better than a reunlon o{ the bodies., They contend that each convention’ work: ing separately has done more cun- structive’ work in the shovt time of their separation than all did worklax together for many years, Therefore, they conclude that reconciliation and a peaceful working understanding without reun‘oa is the happtest sola: ton to our Baptist family differences. ‘To our way of thisking, vie group, ‘while meritorious in many things, an the emphasis of the dissolu: tion of our nalonal organtzation at Chicago in the wrong place, They seem to place at the door of the prin- ciples upon which our convention was founded the blame for its tur moll, for its non-constructive policy, for its undemocratic procedure. for’ {ts demagogism; when the fact cg that the democratic principles 80. fundamental and essential in our chureh and all of its organized et- forts; the principle of democracy, of our union, of our being together was not at fault. Our being in one great Baptist body was not the cause of the sterility and turmoil. ‘The cause was in the failure of the manhood ot the convention to assert itself in terms of pure church democracy; the failure was in the lack of constrne- tive leadership; the failure of our former united convention was in the Inability of those in control to ad vantageously organize and direc: the | great body of people tnter thor In: fluence. ‘The failure was in a grow: ng intelligent convention triins to adjust {tself to outgrown, antiquated business rules, regulations and meas: being together, ft was in onr not be | ing close enoush together.

First, this sroup {x contending that as a“iace ‘and denomination we are too weak and inexperienced to divide or re main separate; that the enterprises already established by the c'vureh and denomination, in order that they should reach the highest state of usefulness and Christin efficiency, need and deserve the uniie? support fof the entire Baptist family; that docause We have made mistakes, re gardless of by whom these mistakes and blunders were made, thot they fre not cause sufficient to eternail) separate the Baptist family and trans | iit to Baptist posterity a legacy of | tate and misunderstanding.

This group 4 ,| anxious that the entire church shal y|reap the benefits of the missfonar -| efforts and good graces of the grea ,| white Baptist family. ‘his group re« -| oxnizes the supremacy, of the churc! s| as expressed in its organized effort »| to do the Master's work. ‘This grou -|would preserve, would keep, woul a | old sacred the memory and g00 s| name of the fathers ot the chure! -| of the leaders and ploneers of Bai o| tist work and effort; men who hay 1-|done much for the denominatloy 0| whose names should ever adorn th | Baptist scroll of honor, even thoug n.| some of them may be in thelr grave | others whose days are beind the n| and who are not prepared for th des of ltanthing. and speed. ..Th RESPONSIBILITY. “Ye are the light’ of the world,” said the Master to his disciples, at once placing them under tremendous responsibility and conferring upon them indescribable honor, This re- sponsibility and honor has ever since that day descended to every child of grace, and most especially to the ministry. Light is that by which men see how to come out of darkness, In fact, it ig the opposite to darkness. Well we might say it is the down- right énemy to darkness. By it men shun the danger routes of life. Solve the problems and master the difficul ‘ties, Belng the light for others ‘when properly considered, produces & distressing state of the mind; then, too; He has ordered that we should let our light or ourselves. 80 shize th&t men coul! see it and ob- sorve thereby the best and proper way to proceed that God migfit be slorified. Think of it! If people stumble and wonder from the path of git, from the teachitgs of the Scrip. tases, from the doctrine and polity of the chureh, it all must be atirl buted ta a faflure of some one to roperly give, demonstrate, impress the truth upon them. If the great Uy) tist family goes wrong, stumbles, alls in the righteous adjustment of its dlferences, it will be because some one has spread darkness, love arkness, falsehood, rather than light, than truth. ‘The leaders will clothe themselves with honor if by the power of their deeds they lead the people aright. —he People’s Defender. ‘To my many friends of which I ‘did not know were my friends until the day we left and as I promised them I would write so this is my first attempt.
