BALLOU'S JIM- CROW ORDER. Boston, Mass., April 22, 1918. "Regarding it as the most non-democratic action since the world war began, the National Equal Rights League, which has branches in 22 states and will hold its 11th annual meeting in Chicago in August, protested to President Wilson by telegraph last night against the order of Major General Ballou, former commander of the separate officer training school for Colored, which order he sent to the White House three times when posted up at Camp Upton, and which order Colored soldiers to surrender civil rights at the behest of white race prejudice Telegram Wants Order Countermanded. The telegram reads as follows: Boston, Mass., April 21, 1683: To the President, Woodrow Wilson White, House, Washington D. C. White House, Washington, D. C.: The National Equal Rights League calls upon you to countermand Gen. Ballou's Bulletin No. 35 for 92nd Division, Camp Funston, Kansas, enjoining officers and soldiers to refrain from using force against their presence is resented because of Color. His dictum that asking public service is putting pleasure above the general good is not applied to white soldiers, destroys all civil rights, causes fresh discriminations, fosters race prejudice, humiliates our race, degrades the army uniform. No order so vicious or undemocratic has been issued in any armies fighting Germany. Protect American soldiers in democracy at home before sending them abroad in Democracy's War. Rev. Byron Gunnner, N. Y., Pres. Rev. M. F. Sydes, R. I., Executive Com. William Monroe Trotter, Mass. Cor. Secy.

About 400 colored men, including officers, will be selected from NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1918. NASHVILLE NEGRO COMPANY NOW IN FRANCE Organization Formerly Known As Compang G Is Now A Part Of The 92nd Division. CAPT. C. O. HADLEY COMMANDER Good Record Preceeds Company- Complimented by Governor. Nashville Negro military organization, formerly known as Company G (unattached) and which was mustered into Federal service at the time all state guard troops were taken in, is now in France. An official notice from Washington was received Tuesday stating that the colored boys had arrived safely overseas. The company, including its captain, two lieutenants, noncommissioned officers and nearly every enlisted man is a Nashville boy and the relative of every individual member are residents of this city. The company is now a part of the 92nd Division. The name of the organization has also been changed to Company K, 387th Infantry. The Negro company went from Nashville to Memphis and did splendid service in that city guarding the bodyguard across the river. Gov. Tom C. Rye and all of the state officials had watched the record which the colored boys had made as a military organization and were pleased to speak in complimentary terms of them upon various occasions. When the Negro soldiers were ordered away upon duty their good record had preceded them and where ever they have gone they have been well treated and became popular with the citizens, both white and colored. The company went to one of the Southern camps from Memphis, and from there they were sent to Newport News, Va., where they assisted in guarding the water front. The Nashville colored company, long before leaving the city was known for its all-round efficiency, having been well drilled and disciplined and had won special praise for the orderly deportment of its members. The commanding officer of the organization is Capt. Chas. O. Haddley, who was born and reared in Nashville. He was educated in the colored schools of Nashville and is a graduate of both Fisk University and Mehary Medical College. At the time war was declared against Germany, in addition to having been Capt. Capp. G. was one the most successful practicing physicians of his race, as well as having been a valued member of the faculty of the Mehary Medical College—Tennessee and American. SUCCESSEUL CAMPAIGN. Columbus, Ohio, April 30—The Spring Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. completed a successful campaign for 500 members, which was the goal set, but was exceeded by 145, making 645 in all. John W. Jackson, captain of team No. 2, captured the coveted prize of a ring indicative of his faithful work, which was presented by Dr. W. A. Method, Chairman of the Board of Managers. John J. Bowles' team was defeated by Mr. Jackson by only three points. Other members worked nobly to make the grand success, that was made. This gives the Spring Street Branch a total of 730 members, the greatest in its history. The people of Columbus responded nobly to the cause, realizing the great need of the kind of work done by the Spring Street "Y." Dr. W. J. Woodlin, one of Columbus best physicians regardless of color, was chairman of the Campaign Committee. He showed the same farsightedness and ability in this campaign as was evidenced in his past works with the Spring Street Y. M. C. A. He organized his workers into ten teams each having a captain in charge, each team rivaling its nearest competitor in a friendly but drastic manner. Hearty co-operation was shown by all reflecting the spirit of brotherhood. Enthusiasm burned in the breast of every worker. Several speakers at the Central Y. M. C. A. (white) were present at several of the meetings, who spoke with keen sincerity and interest concerning the real meaning of the work done in the Campaign. Nimrod B. Allen, Executive Secretary of the Spring Street "Y", is being laureled with honors, for the personality and punch he has injected in the work since taking charge about two years ago. It is due to his untiring and zealous efforts that he is able to command and organize as he has. "The Columbus "Y" is a real factor and is handling contemporary problems manfully." The Spring Street Branch "Y" is doing and has done more than any organization in Columbus to advance the cause of these were the testimonies of the white speakers at one of the Campaign meetings. The new $15,000 building now under construction will be ready for occupancy by September. It will offer every advantage of a modern Y. M. C. A. the various training camps and sent to Tuskegee on May 15th, and for two months these men will do most intensive work in such trades as auto mechanics, carpentry, blacksmithing, etc. This group will be followed by another group until, during the six months following, approximately 1,200 men will have been trained. JUDGE HARRISON OF OKLA. INVADES ARKANSAS On Southern Tour for Liberty Bonds And Thrift Stamps. Citizens' Subscribe. VA., FLA., ALA., GA., LA., VISITED Madison And Ather Arkansas Cities Give Enthusiastic Audiences. Judge Harrison of Oklahoma, en route home, after a Liberty Bond and Thrift Stamp tour through Virginia, the Carolinas. Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee, stopped at Madison, Ark. in response to urgent requests of the citizens of that town. Judge Harrison's itinerary ended in Alabama, but the people wanted his eloquent appeals to the patriotism of his race and were determined to hear him in Madison. The enunciations of the people clerked in Madison to President Wilson made no mistake in selecting Mr. Harrison for this important duty. Right here it should be said to the credit of Mr. Wilson that so far as the writer knows, the men of our race selected by President Wilson for public service have not been surpassed in real worth and ability, if equalled, by any president of this country. William Harrison, Emmett J. Scott in civil life on down the line through almost 100 cleanliness, clear-eyed commissions and warrants by 100,000 black-skinned warrants by the banks over there and going over there will help make a place in the sun for world democracy. Judge Harrison delivered addresses at Madison, Forrest City, Colt and Wynne. At each of these places the auditoriums were full to overflowing, more white people have attended these meetings than any that have come under the writer's notice in this state. Further still, so fair, and forceful have been the eloquent expresses of Judy Harrison that both races trust him praise his appeals to patriotism. His address at Wynne on Sunday night was so well received that the white people wanted him to speak in the court house Tuesday. LOOK OUT FOR THE FAUD. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., May 1. Information reaches us that a man posing as a representative of the local rural School. Building Fund has been haunted throughout the state of Arkansas and claiming that if Twenty-five ($25) Dollars is paid to him he can secure any amount from the Rosenwald Fund for building school-houses. This statement is a warning to all interested in building rural school-houses through the aid of the Rosenwald Fund, that any person who seeks payment to influence the Rosenwald contribution is a fraud, and should be instantly reported to the local police authorities and a report sent to Tuskegee Institute. The State Supervisors of rural school work among the colored people are as follows: Mr. James L. Sibley, Montgomery, Ma. L. A. Benson, Little Rock, Ark; Mr. George Lillett, Ga.; Mr. Leo M. Favot, Bacon Rouge, La.; Mr. Bura Hilton, Jackson, Miss; Mr. F. C. Button, Frankfort, Ky.; Mr. J. Walter Huffington, Md.; Mr. N. C. Newbold, Raleigh, N.C.; Mr. J. Bhrannon, Columbia, S.C.; Mr. S. L. Smith, Nashville, Tenn.; and Mr. Arthur D. Wright, Richmond, Va. Any person operating the above named states in the interest of the Rosenwald Fund should be duly authorized either from Tuskegee Institute or by one of the supervisors named whose aid and co-operation should be sought when communities seek the Rosenwald aid. It is hoped that every effort will be made through co-operation to prevent such shields being inflicted on the pub. R. R. MOTON, Principal, Tuskegee Institute, Ala.

C., the Place of Session. ALL URGED TO SEND DELEGATES Colored Race Will Present Claims To The Congress Soon. Boston, Mass., April 29, 1918: (Special). At a meeting of the Board of Managers of the National Colored Liberty Conference held at Executive Hea quarters, 34 Cornhill, last week, the dateq for the National Colored Liberty Congress at Washington were changed to June 24 to 28, inclusive, with June 23 as Liberty Sunday Colored Liberty Conference of Columbia. The Congress proper will open Tuesday morning, June 25th, Monday, the 24th, to be given over to registration and meeting of the Board Managers. The one purpose of this Colored Liberty Congress is approaching the Congress and Government of the U. S. for democracy for colored Americans while we are taking part in the war for world democracy, as adopted by the National Conference and birding on the Convention is as follows: "The Aim and Object of this Congress of delegates from colored churches and organizations is to press the just claim of the colored American citizens of the U. S. A. to share in the world democracy for which they are subject to fight under the flag of the Republic and to take positive measures to secure from the Government the abolition of disfranchisement and of all caste discriminations, civil and poilical." There will be a national headquarters of the President, Rev. A. Clayton Powell, and of the Chairman of the Board, Mr. H. H. Harrison, at 227 W. 136th street, New York City, and a national executive headquarters for National Organizer, Allen W. Thaley, National Treasurer, Rev. D. S. Chugh, and Executive Secretary, Wm.

The National Organizer appeals to race-loyal colored citizens to form a Colored Liberty and Equal Rights Committee for the purpose of sending of town or city delegates, also delegates by churches, lodges and organizations. Communicate with him on progress and on his coming to speak at 34 Cornhill, Boston, Mass. AFRICAN METHODIST MINISTERS PROTEST AGAINST "BIRTH OF A NATION" The A. M. E. Ministers' Alliance of this city registered their protest against the production of the photoplay, "The Birth of a Nation," last Tuesday morning at their regular weekly meeting by passing a resolution condemning the play and appointing a committee to draw up a statement and appeal to the city authority, requesting that the exhibition be suppressed, and not allowed to be shown in Nashville. It is claimed by these ministers that a large number of colored people usually attend the shows given at the Vendome where the "Birth of a Nation" is advertised to be shown, and that it is impossible to put this stifle producing play on the screen before a mixed audience of white and colored people in the south, without stirring up feelings of bitterness on both sides. Speaking of the play, J. A. Jones, chairman of the committee said: "It has witnessed the play myself. It carries one back to Reconstruction days, the racial antipathy in the south was height. The picture is overdrawn like all the writings of Tom Dixon's are. Tom Dixon as a writer of fiction, seemed to have had two objects in view, namely, to humiliate the Negro and emenhazize Anglo-Saxon superiority, and to make money. If any Negro with the slightest degree of self respect or the least bit of race pride, can witness the "Birth of a Nation" without feeling deeply humiliated and at the same time exceptionally indignant, he is indeed a saint. I think the "Birth of a Nation" without being driven by the American stage, this playhouse, and that speedily. This is no time for stirring up race feeling among the citizens of America." The committee appointed to wait upon the city authorities was Drs. J. A. Jones, W. G. Allen, J. H. Grant, I. H. Smith, A. L. Pinkston, and W. A. Anderson. the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, Nashville, Tenn., Secretary of the Negro Sunday School Congress and general superintendent of their forces in the United States, spoke in the afternoon before delegations for seventy Sunday schools at the First African Baptist Church, Third street, near Franklin. His subject was, "Front Line Sunday schools and How to Build Them." The Rev. Boyd told the Negroes that he believed the war would be won by young men trained in military discipline and inspired by the religious spirit they gained in the Sunday school. He advocated the Boy Cadet movement and schools which combined military discipline with religious training. Rev. J. A. Granderson presided The meeting was held under the auspices of the Ministers' Alliance Leading organizers of the meeting are Rev. E. W. White, Rev. A. Hubbs, Rev. L. Burrill and J. W. Willard.—The Times Picayune, New Orleans, La. Thirty-Nine Drafted Men Leave For Camp—Cheered by Hundreds Of Citizens. GOOD PROGRAMME RENDERED Trying Period For The Race But Can Stand The Test. Thirty-four of Robertson County's Colored draftmen were entertained by the Springfield Ladies' Relief Club, last night (Sunday), at Saint John's A. M. E. Church. A very appropriate program was rendered. The program follows: Music, "America"—High School Glee Club. Praver—Rev. Hill. Music, "Battle Hymn of the Republic." Address-By Rev. I. T. Jefferson. D. D. Music—"A!t Goner Study War No More" Club. More—Glee Club. Remarks—Mr. Neal Glenn. Music, "Rolling in Zion"—Glee Club. Announcements. Benediction—By Rev. J. T. Ridley, D. D. Mr. Hattie V. Nixon, president of the Ladies' Relief Club, acted as Missress of Ceremonies, and in befitting words introduced Dr. Jefferson, pastor of Saint John's A. M. E. Church, as the speaker of the hour. As the speaker came forward a silence like the stillness of death came over the house and the audience, white and colored seemed bent on catching every word. Dr. Jefferson spoke as follows: "Chairman, Brother Ministers, Fellow-citizens and Soldiers of the United States of America: We have been called here to do honor to thirty-nine of the greatest men in Robertson County. They are great because uncomplainably and fearlessly they have come forward in and out to their country's call. They are the men who came forth to make good President Wilson's answer to the Ger an war lords, who have challenged the world with their threat of "force," and in the spirit of true Americanism we shall answer by force. "Soldiers, we came here to honor you, because your spirit of patriotism has predominated the spirit of distrust and prejudice which is a part of every human being who has met with the impediment which you have met with, and in answer to the call of this American government of which you are a part, you have said: "Here am I, send me, send me." We are now entering upon the most trying hour of our race life—an hour when the severest tests will be applied, and I am glad that we as a race can stand the test. "I thank God that the Negro has had a representative in every war this nation has waged, and we will no less patriotic in this the greatest crisis the world has ever known. You are our representatives in this war of wars. You are going forth to fight the battles, and to us you are as great as was the English host on Wellington when returning from the little of Watery." "In sending you forth to the camps and to the battle line in France we would have you know we are reposing all and our uttermost confidence in you. We believe you are the force which will bring the Kaiser to his knees, and plant the "Stars and Strips" upon the administration building in Berlin. Lest you forget I want to remind you that you are a part of a fighting race that has always been fierce and strong in battle, a race that has never faltered nor qualified in the time of this country's distress. We there fore ask that you honor and reflect credit upon the fathers by doing your duty, and in obedience to your commander, go forward; never retreat. "You go forth to fight for your country, you go forth to fight for the protection of our women and children, and in doing so you must try to forget the differences here at home. David told his servant there was no time to fight mosquitoes when tigers and lions awaited. We are going out to get bigger game. We are going to capture a maddened lion which has been turned aloose on civilization, a lion crazed by his just for power, dominion and gold. You are going to fight—not to fight for the white man's country, but for your own country. I do not believe in a half way citizenship. This is your country, this is my country. I was born here and you were born here. And since we were born here and have lived here we have no other country to fight for or to die for. In the same language and in the same sense that Paul said, "I am a Roman," I say, I am an American citizen. America is my country—it is ours. We gave the first blood for the independence of this country, and there isn't anything that can wipe out this truth. Historians cannot write of the American Revolution without telling how Crispus Attucks bared his bronze breast to British bullets on Boston Commons, nor can they write of the brilliant achievements of Grant. Sherman, Sheridan Buell, Hallark, Lee or Jackson with out telling of the heroic stand of the "black philoxylx" at Milligan Bend Wagoner and Fort Pillow. They cannot speak of the rise and fall of kingdoms and nations without tell me how Rambla crossed the Alps to the city of Italy, or our Saint L'Overture, who forged a derbelt out of the sable sons of Hayt (Continued on page 4.) NUMBER 27 Dr. W. S. Ellington Delivers A Burning Message At Newport News, Va. THE "PRODIGAL SON," SUBJECT "The Crying Need Of The Hour" Was Delivered Monday Evening. Newport News, Va., April 22, 1918. —To the Nashville Globe—We write just this line to speak of what we regard and what those who have lived in Newport News, Va., longer than we have, regard as the greatest of all occasions among the church-going people of this city. We refer to the recent visit of the First Baptist Church, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Nashville and Editorial Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, located in that city. Dr. Ellington had been invited to come to Newport News, the great ship-building city, to participate in the anniversary exercises of the Rev. C. D. Henderson, pastor of the First Baptist Church. It is well to say that when this distinguished one arrived in this city he needed a program that was sufficient to keep him busy during his stay here. After a brief word with the Sabbath school, touching on one's reputation, Dr. Ellington was escorted to the main auditorium of the church, where he was introduced by Secretary A. F. Williams to an audience of more than twelve hundred anxiously waiting to get a glimpse of the school with written their Sunday school literature for the past fifteen years. By request he studied with his audience the "Prodigal Son." With so much force did he tell the story and in such clear terms, and so practical did he make the lesson that at his eleven o'clock service sixteen men arose, walked down the aisle of the church and took a stand for Christ. That is, sixteen men were converted. Dr. Ellington preached again at 8 o'clock to more than 1,500 people and then from as at a. At this service he studied with his audience the "Temptation of Christ." And there were three men converted. The people of this city regarded it as the greatest day ever witnessed and two of the ables sermons ever preached in this city Mr. Puryear, formerly of Nashville, and Mr. James East, a leading business man of the city, put their big car at the disposal of Dr. S. A. Thomas and Secretary to camp Hill and see other ministers of interest on campus. So on Monday after driving around the city to see some of the churches, he was taken to the First Baptist Church, where he addressed the Baptist Ministers' Conference. From here a party of citizens accompanied the Doctor to Camp Hill, just north of the city, where more than 12,000 colored soldiers are stationed. Special orders had been issued by the Colonel at the request of Sam's family to assemble from 3 to 4 o'clock to hear the speaker. It was a beautiful afternoon and thousands of men in Uncle Sam's uniform greeted him and were inspired by the eloquent and forceful manner in which he admonished them. From here the party was driven to Hampon, Va., where the guest was shown through the Hampton Institute grounds and the Old Soldiers' Home grounds. The next visit was to Fortress Mountain, where a large view of several big battalions as they were steaming into port for the drill ground with their observation baloons flying many hundred feet above them. The Nashvillian spoke on Monday night in the First Baptist Church to a full house on "The Crying Need of the Hour," and on Tuesday morning visited the city public school and the great ship yard, where fully fifty per cent of the eight thousand men who were in the town. The plea of this city were honored in his presence. He expressed himself as being well pleased with the trip here The Doctor left Tuesday at 12:05 for Nashville, Tenn. LEADING COLORED CITIZENS GATHER AT THE MEMPHIS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND DISCUSS PLANS AND WAYS AND MEANS OF HELPING THEIR COUNTRY WIN THE WAR.

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 chorlster Is expected to have whipped Into form one of the greatest aggrega- tions of singers that has ever been pre- pared 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 stamp- ed him indelibly upon the minds of the people a8 a master mind in train- ing congregational singers. It was announced that there would be an or- chestra assisting to support the: chorus, with a piano and pipe organ, When the Congress opens it {s claimed | the chorus will be divided in the varl- ous subdivisions during the afternoon | ef each day in order that each depart- mental meeting might have special | music, This with the addition of two bands already secured, {s claimed by the Congress secretary to be an ad- vance not yet enjoyed by the Sunday School vorkers at these annual gath- erings.

More than perhaps some workers have been accustomed to hear hhas been the assertion that the alm and purpose of the Sunday School Congress was for building front line Sunday ‘Schools. This has been proven by the ‘constant and steady growth of the for- ‘ward Sunday School movement from ‘the time the Sunday School Congress ‘was first launched to the present, By. ‘ery Indication is pointing to the fact that nothing that has been started tn the past decade has proven a greater foree for good than the present for- ward movement. A veritable coming ‘together of workers trom every per- tion of the United States where they spend the better part of the week in a ‘real Sunday School of Methods has ‘been cousidered by the Sunday School workers and acknowledged by Sunday School experts, attested by devout min Isters of the gospel, as thé little loaven in the loaf. The attendance of the Sunday School, therefore, it would seem has been on the tnereage since the very beginning and from the amount of enthusiasm shown at each ‘and every session there will be no abatement—no, not one backward “step. At the Sunday School Congress every attendant becomes a constant ‘advocate and worker. There are ne ‘visitors. All are weleome, all find something to do, and everyone {s heard.

Y. P. U, work: cers, It was hailed with joy and da'ight. ‘Strong editorials by the leading denom- {national editors appeared in papers throughout the country. Secular jour- nals 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 tt met in Now Orleans, in 1908 In Jacksonyjlle, Pla; in 1909 at Nashville, Tenn. in 1910, Atlanta, Gn.; 1911, Meridian, Miss; 1912, Tuskegee, Ala.; 1913, tn Muskogee, Okla.; 1914, Beaumett, Tex; in 1915, Birmingham, Alasein 1916, Vicksburg, Miss.; 1917, in Nash- yille, Tenn. ‘This year in Alexandria. te.

Some Sunday Schools will send an entire company Perhaps several battalion bands will be in attendance. Boys in uniform ‘will be geen each day and the spirited military discipline under religious in- fluence 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 Sun- day 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 ‘ether information can be obtained frem the Natfonal Baptist Publishing Beard. In fact, how to organize a company of Cadets is told in a very “imple way in this book, which sells for ten cents.

EXECUTIVE BOARD HOLDS IMPORTANT MEETING The Executive Board of the Missionary Baptist State Convention of Tennessee held a most profitable and far-reaching meeting Friday, April 26th, at the Fifteenth Avenue Baptist Church, Rev. A. W. Porter, pastor. He plans for the summer institute to be held in the National Baptist Theological and Training Seminary as submitted and recommended by Rev. J. L. Harding were approved. The following subjects will be taught: Bible history, grammar, theology, music, Christian doctrine, missionary and Sunday school teacher-training. In speaking of the school Rev. J. Harding said, "The Bible is the book that used as a standard of adjustment and teaches taught therein will be clarified and to by all the nations of the earth who are or will be affected by this great war, whenever the question of peace gets a conscientious hearing. All international codes and covenants between men and nations have been disregarded or abrogated during these times because they have not been able to stand the test and storms of changing circumstances. The world is writing a new history. Many of the standard works of science are fast becoming obsolete. The time is not very far in the distant future when those that know a very little of the Bible will be looked upon as suspicious characters in the community. Governments will declare peace in the light of its teachings and the people of God must lead in declaring the eternal truths therein." ST. JOHN BAPTIST CHURCH. The St. John Baptist Sunday School between 11th and 12th avenues. The school was opened strictly on time by the superintendent at 9:30 of clock, Brother J. A. Turner. The Sunday school is enlarging every week. New scholars are being added to the Sunday school. The scholars seem to be more interesting in the Sunday school work. On last Sunday the Metokas and Galedas gave a rally. Different churches turned out with us. A large sum of money was raised. Visitors of many churches were present. Rev A. C. Holder of Mt. Zion installed the officers. We had a glorious time. Come, one; come, all, and join us. Brother J. A. Turner, Supt. Sister Alma Reese, Secretary. A. M. E. MISSIONARY BOARD MEETING. New York City — "If there was ever a time that we should do real aggressive missionary work it is now," declared Dr. J. W. Rankin, Secretary of the Home and Foreign Missionary Department of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in his annual report made before the Board of Managers Wednesday, April 24, held in the headquarters, 61 Bible House. The Board was presided over by Bishop J. Albert Johnson, D. D., and associated with him were Bishops W. W. Beckett and I. N. Ross. The following members were present and took part in the meeting: Revs. R. J. Williams, of Philadelphia; E. H. Waller, Portsmouth, Va.; J. P. W. Waller, Richmond, Va.; N. C. Buren St. College, W. W. Beckett, Fitzgerald, D. D. H. Johnson Aboveville, S. C.; Charles F. Brooks, Covington, La.; H. N. Newcome, Selma Ala; A. W. Abbington, Dallas, Tex.; S. A. Harris, Sanford, Fla.; C. R. Tucker, Tulsa, Okla.; C. E. Allen, Detroit, Mich.; C. Mesdames, Mary F. NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY MAY 3. 1918 Handy, Baltimore, Md., and S. G. Simmons, Charleston, S. C. Following the opening, and the introduction of visitors, Bishop Johnson delivered a short address and was followed by the report of Secretary J. W. Rankin, which was considered one of the greatest reports ever made to the Board by any secretary. Dr. Rankin has made a special study of the work of missions, for he has not only had reports from the mission, has visited the foreign work, and devoted much of his time in looking into the home work. He is considered authority on missionary work for the race, and has gotten out several books for the study of missions. The foreign work of the church embraces South and West Africa, Hayti, South America, and all the West Indian Islands. While the work in the islands of the sea were holding their own, the secretary said that the inability to rebuild St. Paul Church at Port-au-Prince had been a drawback when he hoped wishing to mat in the near future. The collections for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1918, amounted to $6,583,868, and for the work the expenditures had been $2,822,666, leaving a balance of $3,566,39. Bishop W. W. Beckett made a special appeal for the work in South Africa, while Bishop I. N. Ross told the special needs of Africa. The day that he was to open conference was the day that the German submarine and that the capital, Monrovia, and on that occasion there had been considerable suffering in West Africa. Special efforts will be made throughout the church to help the work. Resolutions were adopted commending the efficient services of Dr. Rankin. DR. J. Q. JOHNSON, PASTOR ST. ANDREW A. M. E. CHURCH, MEMPHIS, RAISES $1381.77 IN SEVEN WEEKS "DRIVE" Memphis, Tenn., April 25—(Special to the Nashville Globe.)-Dr. Johnson has proven to be one of the most popular and successful pastors that St. Andrew's has had in several years. He was appointed by Bishop Lee last July to take charge of the church and congregation after the resignation of Rev. I. S. Lee. Dr. Johnson has been one of the successful pastors in the connection for the past 25 years. He has won his "spurs" in African Missionism and is a "tumber" for the bishop. The new General Conference would do well to enshrine the Rev. J. Q. Johnson with the role of a bishop, as he is a duty qualifier and has been truly tried, and is able to fill any position in the gift of the church and his people. He is a ripened scholar and writer, preacher and pastor. Spring Rally at St. Andrew A. M. E. Church. The spring rally at St. Andrew A. M. E.

Nashville, Tenn., May 3, °18 PEEVED. FR ee acre it anti eeTeRS Seta result of introduction of the Brandoge« resolution in the Senate, the President is disposed to explain in confidence to the senate foreign affairs committee his reasons for opposing a declara tion of war against either Turkey o1 Bulgaria or both. And that, so far as can be judged, was exactly what the Brandegee resolution was intended to bring about ‘The war resolution, it should ne Yorne in mind, was introduced in the Airst place by Senator King, of Utah, & democrat. Senator Brandexee, of Connecticut, republican, merely. pre- sented a resolution calling for action n the King measure. ‘The Brande: Bee resolution gave several senators ‘oostly republicans, an opportunity to State their willingness to vote for war. Also it permitted senators, republican \ democratic, to make clear their Fesentment of the frequently indicated executive policy of ignoring the Senate. ‘The real force back of the discussion Was not so much partisan as bipar- isan, It was affronted senatorial dig- Hity and sense of importance expres: sing itself * Some of the republicans, no doubt, are willing to make capitol of the an fagnoisin between the senators and the White House, In another sense, ft is also probably true that the ap: roach of selections is tending to loosen the hold of the administration on Congress an dto make easier. the development of free talk. Senator Brandegee himself announced after a day of discussion, some of it sharp, that he had no intention of pressing his resolution, “helieving the publicity given the question would cause the foreign relations committee to give fit early consideration.” Since Senator Brandegeo Is a member of that com mittee the chanees are he spoke with Warrant. The President — evidently thinks so, for he has given the fores- talling word. “1 think the time has come," said Senator Knox of Pennsylvania, “when ‘we should have information and have It direet.” And that expresses best of all. the motive back of the demonstration. It really appears from every stand: point as if the president ought to meet the Senate half way. It would be good Patriotism and good polities, too. It is easy to enter into the feelings of senators who have been at least hither to prominent and who are treated as children incompetent either to give advice or be given information, It there is an element of justification for the President's lack of confidence in them, that does not change the situa tion particularly. Certainly he could find time to go through the motions consultation now and then, and present at least the appearance of frankness, A little of that policy Would moliify the democratic sens: tors, at any rate, and would take away from the republicans most of their leverage. Beside it would actually promote unity everywhere, ‘The Senate doesn't now especially want war on Bulgaria and Turkey Some senators may’ sincerely feel that war should be declared. But the ma Jority of them are quite willing te Teave the matter to the executive, i the executive will only be sufficient ly polite to pretend to consult with them. It naturally grates on senators svres to be told every day or two ix Greel’s messages of “the government to the people” and in all the adminis tration newspapers that senators are ignorant of everything connected with the war, when one of the reasons they *¢ 80 ignorant fs the fact that the gov: ‘ernment won't tell them anything, A little of the spirit of rapproche tent between the White House and the capitol would do away with such vitter fights as that which has devel- oped in connection with the Overman bill, for instance, The Senate isn't really mad, so much as it is peeved. HUMOR. It takes man to laugh. Long ago it was sald that all below and al above man in the universe are seri ous. Lack of humor therefore is a juality that gods and beasts have tn common, But that is only apparent Deasts are tnferlor to humor. Gods fre superior to it, Man, being falible ‘but conscious of his falliahlity, is Mone qualified to preceive dispropor. va, A sense of disproportion fs very close to a sense of humor, if indeed is not that, Indeed, who has not observed that the man who looks upon himself only to be perpetually astound | at his perfection has no use for aumor? ‘here ts the blood relation between the whanging of a slapstick and the atle play of a bon mot, In the one © it Is a lowering of physteat man into the stature of the beast, in the other it is am elevating of his men tality into a realm of thin air” and lusive ideas; and either the raising or the lowering, if sudden and prepos eros, is funny” ‘To lack the humorous sense is to feo life without perspective. ‘The orld in which the unbumorows man ‘ives Is a foreshortened world, To be humorous is miueh the eame ns to ne unmoral; it ts to be deprived of fundamental quality.

"I had tried everything that I knew of or could hear of, and yet I had not found the remedy until Mrs. Cordie Vester advised me to take Lung-Vita, which I did. And I am proud to say that this medicine relieves the cause and consequently the bronchial trouble. I feel brand-new and appreciate having taken such a medicine. I recommend it to other people." Lung-Vita is sold by druggists and dealers in Nashville and its vicinity. —Adv.

Saturday afternoon a farewell meeting was held at the court house. Rev. A. Ramson presided and made the introductory speech. Rev. E. F. Gooch made the principal address. The kits were presented by Miss S. O. Brown. Lieut. Burrell Tillman on being introduced received an ovation. He is now at home on a furlough. Mr. Tillman is a graduate of Tuskeguee and has just graduated from the officers' training camp, being one of the seventeen colored men who made the necessary grade. He bears the rank of second man. The Tillman's address was the feature of the school gave an interesting account of life at the camp and gave much wholesome advice to the boys, as well as some very practical advice to those who remain at home. The boys were banqueted Saturday night at the M. E. Church, where there was provided a feast of reason as well as many good things to eat. While there was not as much enthusiasm as on the first occasion, still the boys were cheerful and were eager for the fray. A large number accompanied the boys to Wartrace and bid them long and sad farewells. The following is a roster of the boys who left: Woods, William, Mattie, Myrtle Albert Kranken, Wm.

The largest crowd of colored people ever known to meet here gathered at the First Baptist Church last Sunday night. The occasion was a grand banquet given to twenty-two colored soldiers who left here for the camps. The people came into our town from several miles around. Before it was dark the house was crowded with both white and colored. The house was called to order by Prof. H. G. Allen, master of ceremonies, who, in a few well chosen and beating words, stated the object of the meeting, after which the great crowd stood and sang "The Star Spangled Banner." At the close of the song Rev. E. M. Smith offered prayer. "America" was then sung, followed by a most excellent paper by Mrs. E. M. Smith, teacher of primary department in our city school. Thurston Orr then sang a solo, followed by a very able address by Rev. W. H. Ogleton, pastor of the A. M. E. Church here. Then a quartet composed of the following persons: Smith Davis, Thurston Orr, Cadwell Smith, Canal. This was followed by an address by Rev. E. M. Smith, which was enjoyed by all. Next a solo by Miss Marie Orr. Song, "Keep the home fire burning," by the choir, followed by a few appropriate remarks by Dr. I. C. Watson. A song entitled "Mr. Wilson's Called," was sung by four characters. One of the leading addresses was made by Mr. Jimmie J. Murray, one of the leading white citizens of our town, who was present and called upon by the master of ceremonies. Mrs. Claudie M. Hurt was the pianist for the occasion and Mrs. Etta Davis conducted the singing department and much credit is due her for the success of the occasion. When the program was completed, a great feast was given the soldier boys. This was managed in such an attractive and tasteful manner that the boys forgot for the present that they had been called to military service. A collection was made for the Cordale result was $25. The public school building here is alive with songs, rehearsals, etc., getting ready for commencement week. Cordie Allen has been elected salutatorian and Amos Smiley, valedictorian, for the class completing the Eighth Grade. Indications are that we are going to have one of the best closing weeks in the history of the school. The soldier boys left today for the class completing the Eighth Grade in our own. Each soldier was presented a Bible by Rev. E. M. Smith, pastor of the First Baptist Church here. FAYETTEVILLE.

Zion Baptist Church on last Sunday night. Prof. Hall spoke of the Negro as a soldier from the Battle of Boston in the Revolutionary War to the Battle of San Diego in the Spanish-American war. We enjoyed the lecture that was delivered by J. J. Clark Carty at the A. M. E. Church Sunday evening to the soldier boys. Mrs. Carty was eloquent. Her thoughts were beautiful and unsurpassed in logic. Mr. E. C. Brossard (white) was the speaker of the day. He was introduced by Rev. Stewart (white). Mr. Brossard said he did not like the word drafted; he said he preferred the word elected. Mr. Kinth Moore of Martin.

CUMBERLAND FURNACE Mr. Gilbert McCurty died April 15. He had been critically ill for some time but bore his suffering patiently until the end. He was a Christian man. He would say while talking, "I am just waiting on the Lord; that he wasn't afraid of death; that he had been preparing for forty years." He was a member of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church and was a faithful member, always willing and ready to give advice. He was known all through the country; he was loved by both colored and white. Rev. J. A.

He was about 59 years of age and died at his home on Fort street. He had only been ill for about three weeks and his death came as a great shock to many of his friends. He leaves a wife and one granddaughter, one sister and four brothers. He was a wife of the late Mack Randolph one of the pioneers of this county and one of the most prosperous of our race in this city. His career he owned many fine rakes of the blue blood stock, and bears the distinction of operating the first car service in this city. The funeral was conducted at Key Chapel M. E.

News reaches us that Mr. Milus Randolph, formerly of this place but now a resident of Chicago, is now employed in the Government Custom House. The pay-as-you-enter system for your supper used by the committee of the entertainment live at late Hall last Friday night proved somewhat unpleasant for some. The crowd was larger than the committee had anticipated and the refreshments became exhausted before all were served. Well, that was all right, but the partiality shown in serving was the unpleasant feature. The second call for the draft boys of Summer County came on last Monday at seven o'clock. The boys were ready and reported for duty. Nine were to go to Camp Lee, Petersburg, Va., and twenty-three were to go to Camp Meade, Md., at noon. Bob Tinsley in charge of the boys for camp was the only one to charge the boys for Camp Meade called their men to order forming them two by two in front of the court house. Then the march began to the station headed by Senator Brackin of Summer and Reuben Harris, carrying two large American flags floating in the breeze followed by Offutt's Jazz Band which played patriotic ablaze. The red auxiliary was well represented with appropriate banners, one of the writer would like to call your special attention to which asks the question as follows: "What Have you done to help the boys who are now in the trenches and those who are soon to so?" Col. J. B. Malone was right when he said: Patriotism ablaze. The colored boys of Old Summer are going to France to fight for victory and win victory. They are not afraid of the Kaiser's guns. They are going to sustain their reputation that they have made in all other battles from Crispum Attucks down to the scrimmage in Mexico at Carrilaz, when Mexican soil was crimson with our precious blood. Mr. Roger Lyons of Indianapolis, Ind., was here circulating among friends. A Thrift Stamp costs only 25 cents. How many have you bought?

COLUMBIA Sunday, April 28th will long be remembered by the people of Columbia and Maury County. The occasion was a patriotic meeting and bid a last farewell to the drafted boys who were to leave nevt morning. Long before the appointed hour, streams of people could be seen coming in every direction and the court room was soon filled to overflowing. The patriotic colored women of the city planned this demonstration. Mrs. C. O. Hunter was chosen chairman and presided throughout the evening. The choir composed of voices from the various churches of the city, was at its best and the enthusiastic way in which the patriotic airs were sung will long be remembered. Preceeding the speaker for the occasion, Miss Crogman of the State Normal, who was present, was asked to give a selection. She gave a reading from Paul Lawrence Dunbar, "The Colored Soldier, which was received with defending applause. C. H. Hawk introduced the speaker of the evening, Mr. A. N. Johnson of Nashville. Mr. Johnson has lost none of his enthusiasm and sound judgment in the presence of a cause and before the close of the meeting citizens felt more keenly the gravity of the situation and more determined to do their part well. At the close of the address, Mrs. B. F. Davis, club, assisted by little Miss Juanna Morrell, presented the men with thirty-five Comfort Kits and in well chosen words, gave a brief report of the good work done by the club for the boys who had gone before.
