LIBERTY CONGRESS CALL TO MEET LIBERTY CONGRESS CALL TO MEET WASHINGTON TO ENTERTAIN MEETING—JUNE 24-29, DATES—ORGANIZATIONS URGED TO SEND DELEGATES—AIM AND OBJECT STATED. New York, N. Y., May 11, 1918—To the Colored Americans of the Republic of U. S. A.; By virtue of the vote of the National Colored Liberty Conference in national convention assembled at Boston, Mass., June 13, 1918, to wit: "The Aim and Object of this National Colored Liberty Congress is to press the just claim of the Colored American citizens of the United States of America to share in the world democracy for which they subject to fight under the flag of the Republic, and to take positive measures to secure from the Government guarantee of the abolition of disfranchisement and of all caste discriminations, civil and politic!" We now send forth this CALL to our fellows in Color and in Prescription: To all Colored Churches, business, civile, literary and fraternal societies and organizations, greetings: The National Colored Liberty Congress is called to consider among ourselves and lay before U. S. Congress meth- and which President Wilson and the Government may best carry out his great slogan—"To make the world safe for democracy, to make the world a fit place for life. And we would also add to them—To make Democracy safe for the world, to make the world a fit place for all people to live in." we know that the present contains the darkest hours of the world's history. The earth is full of violence, pain and sorrow; of bitterness and hate. Many people are in a state of perplexity; their hearts are failing them with fear because of the evils which stalk abroad by night and by day. Our people are trying to hold fast their faith in God and in our government. But to many God seems to be far away and the government strangely indifferent to the many wrongs and injustices done to our people. And it is certain beyond question, that neither culture, religion, nor even our boasted Christian civilization has saved our nation from many deeds and trails of archaic barbarism. In the midst of much suffering and prejudicial wrongs for centuries, we have been patient and loyal to our country. In all wars or independence and a united nation we have marched and fought in the front ranks. "When disaster clouded the Union's cause, we volunteered 200,000 strong, and served without pay for eleven months till given that of white troops: Faced threatened enslavement if captured; were brave in action, patient under heavy and dangerous labors, and cheerful hardships and privations. Surely we have given to the nation and the world undying proof that Americans of African descent possess the pride, courage and devotion of the patriot and soldier." That is the compliment paid the Colored soldiers at the close of the great Civil War. We are no less patriotic and loyal today; we serve our country and its flag; we know no other. Representing as we do, more than one-tenth of the fighting strength of the U. S. we desire in Liberty Congress to be assembled, place and date as above aforesaid, to ask President Wilson and Congress at this time to remove from the statutes of our country all proscription laws of race discriminations of whatever kind, that we have at home, for ourselves, our wives, our children and our posterity, that which we are fighting and dying in a strange land to secure for others. We ready to fight to victory for a worldwide democracy which offers equal opportunity and equal protection for every man, woman and child, American citizens at home and beyond the seas. With this covenant we stand ready to pledge to the government our fortunes, our lives, our wives and children, to the last dollar and the last man to democracy and to make the world a place for all people to live in.

INTERDENOMINATIONAL MINISTERS' ALLIANCE ELECT NEW PRESIDENT The Interdenominational Alliance of Nashville, at its regular session Friday May 9th, elected Rev. J. H. Smith, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church to succeed Dr. W. R. Steven who has been transferred to Jacksonville, Fla. The new president will be installed Friday May 24th, at 10:30. a. m. AS TO "THE BIRTH OF A NATION" The Ministerial Alliance's Protest Defended. Mr. Editor; I note that you said in your last issue that you made sure that the Ministerial Alliance knew they were wasting their valuable time when they called upon Mayor Gunton to protest the "Birth of a Nation." And then you close your comment by saying, "Let them show it wherever they will. It harms the whites much more than it does the blacks." Allow me to say: In the first place, I do not consider it a waste NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY---THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. of time to make an honest fight against any evil. It is not a question as to whether the Mayor, who is a mere man, heeded the protest of the ministers, or not. But it is a matter of letting the public (white people) know that we have sensit enough to know when we are insulted, and that we have the courage to resent it. Furthermore, we insist that the only way to finally demish any great evil is to keep hammering at it. The one "besetting sin" of the Negroes of Tennessee, and of Nashville especially, is that they are too easily satisfied; too quick to "lay down" on any proposition that the white man does not favor; he asks for nothing, demands nothing and gets nothing, save that which the white man sees fit to "hand out" to him. I want to tell you why the Mayor treated our protest as he did and allowed "Birth of a Nation" to proceed unmolested. He knew that the A. M. E. ministers who waited on him represented only a part of the Negro citizenship of this city, and that the masses of the Negroes, led by the other "leaders" were satisfied, or did not care a snap what was to take place. Suppose every race organization in this city had joined in a vigorous protest against the show of "A Birth of a Nation," do you say that the city authorities would have been silent? Not a bit of it. In things of this kind, our Negro population are too much inclined to act as white men do about lynching. Our white citizens will remain silent and inactive, during a man hunt, and after the wages have hung and shot and burnt their victim, then they come together protesting against mob violence and deploring the evil times upon which the state has fallen. A waste of time to protest! Must we submit to everything mean and degrading to the race simply because we can't help ourselves? No. If a man maltreats me, I will not like him know I do not like it, even though I can't help myself. He must know that I am a man like it, as although he may have the advantage of my Now, you say the "Birth of a Nation," as a show, "harms the whites much more than it does the blacks." Our protest was not based upon the idea that the show does the race exceptional harm, but we insisted that the exhibition of the play in a Southern city, before a mixed audience, tended to stir up race friction and is a breeder of strife, leading to possibly additional mob violence and other outbreaks, in which the Negro is naturally the greatest sufferer. This is still my contention. I fall to wherein the evil results coming from a show of the "Birth of a Nation" could possibly bring more harm to the whites than to the blacks. For my part of the "Birth of a Nation" was billed to harm to this city next week. I would readily join in with any set of courageous, peace-loving men to protest again. Keep it up, for God's sake, for the race's sake, keep it up. METOKAS OF FIFTEENTH AVE BAPTIST CHURCH The Metoka class met last Wednesday night at the residence of the President, Mr. T. H. Cannon of 303 11th Ave., N. The meeting was called to order by the President with song and prayer.

Dear Brtheren:— You have honored me with the treasurership of our beloved Turner College for nine years. While I appreciate the honors that you have conferred upon me from time to time, but I feel that it is time to give this honor to another one of the Tennessee's "Mountain Climbers" hence I will not stand for re-election at the general Board next week. I believe that, "If you have had a kindness shown pass it on." Yours for Turner College. J. H. Smith, Treasurer. MR. ELMORE PATTERSON DIES AT GALLATIN.

NASHVILLE "Y" SINCE 1912 NASHVILLE "Y" SINCE 1912 COMMUNITY'S BENEVOLECE REPRESENTED—"Y" NOW A FIXED FACTOR—YOUNG MEN AND BOYS HOUSED. The white and colored friends of the Colored Branch Y. M. C. A. who since 1912, have constantly been preaching the gospel of Association service for colored men and boys are jubilant over the report which the Committee of Management will soon make to the public of the past year's work. The local business men have not forgotten the argument which these men advanced in favor of their making large donations for the purchase of a Colored "Y" building. The building is a reality. Each year will serve as a chapter justifying the reasonableness of their concern. The thousands of young men who have enjoyed the convenies and common interests have already begun to manifest their gratitude to not only the men who have ceaselessly toled to popularize the movement, but to the men who finally loosened their purse strings in order that the experiment might be tried out. It is said that such institutions as the Young Men's Christion Associations represent the benevolence of a community. Until January 1, 1912, there was not tangible evidence of this spirit being very manifest toward colored boys and men. The use of these institutions represent the high esteem and regard which young men have for the higher things in life. It appears that both the business men and colored men set by other large are up to the standard set by his laborers more presuperior cities in this respect. One need only to relate a few facts relative to the use which the fellows are putting the building to to find how well satisfied the donors of the work are with the investment which the yhave made. It is the hope of all concerned that the 'Committee of Management will prove equal to the big task which is theirs for the working out and putting into operation and adequate program for the second years' work. A program which will fully meet the needs of the normal young man and boy and at the same time excite the admiration of the big business men of the community, men of ability and large means, who are accustomed to work in a large scale. If the Committee of Management is backed by the Board of Directors can prove itself equal to this task it will go on record as rendering a type of very much needed service to the community such as no similar group of men have yet had an opportunity to render in the Southland. It is growing more and more evident that the Nashville Colored Branch Y. M. C. A. is distinctively a community movement for the 'betterment of young men. Even men who have done nothing more than sign a subscription card are frequently heard to say "This is our Young Men's Christian Association building." To the extent that the affairs of the Association are concerned in a manner to make both the low and the exalted alike lay claim to it, will it become a toror for good in the community life. Men who do this must be not simply men of ability, but men with large and generous hearts and men of vision who can, because of their knowledge of the past and the present, predict and prepare for the needs of tomorrow. There is probably no local business or institution whose field for achievement in any wise compares with the Association's opportunity for usefulness. The more fully the men who are capable for the development of the skills this the more unclish and effective with their work. While Nashville rejoices at what has been done, it is also apprehensive as to the work yet to be done for the benefit of the Negro men and boys and the community. METHODIST SUNDAY SCHOOL ALLIANCE The Methodist Sunday School Alliance held its monthly meeting Sunday, May 12, at the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, corner Lena and Eighth avenues. The Training for Service Class conducted by Mr. W. H. Shackleford is growing more interesting with each monthly meeting which is shown by an increase in attendance. St. John A. M. E. Church won the attendance banner by having sixty-four members at the Alliance. Much due Dr. A. L. Whitakar, the superintendent. General attendance was one hundred seventeen. Le. all superintendents keep up this eniusism by having as many members as possible present at the next monthly meeting.

ARMY OFFICERS VISIT: Two commissioned officers in the United States Army visited Nashville during the past fortnight. They were Captain M. V. Boutte and Lieut. H. A. Cameron, both of whom are stationed at a northern camp. Their visit to the city on a ten days' furlough was mingled with pleasure and busness, so it was stated before they left. It was Cameron, and Capt. Boutte's second son, since theyceived their commission, and throughout their stay they mingled with friends and on each and every occasion they expressed themselves as supremely confident that when they get "over there" with the boys in the trenches, victory will be perched upon Uncle Sam's banner.

This rare treat was given them by Mr. H. Boland, the father of one of the tots, and it was diffi- cult for them, which received the most pleasure, unless the donor of the treat or the children who made up the company of picnickers. The wagon to carry them to the park was crowded with the youngsters and their chaperones, and the large lunch box and ice cream freezer were tucked carefully under the seat. From ten in the morning until late in the afternoon, the children played games and trollick to their hearts' content, and the supply of good things to eat seemed unlimited.

He is Shackleford bids to be a second Paul Laurence Dunbar. His orphanage, with the rich voice peculiar to the race, add much to the force of his poems. Here is one of them: Doing Their Bit Gee! we orphans sure are working hard this winter. But some how or other we don't seem to care. 'Cause you see we're nukin' things to give the Red Cross. To help the wounded soldiers "over there." Some folks seem to think that just 'cause we are orphans. That in life's big doin' we don't have a share; I wish that they could see us knit-tin' mufflers.

NUMBER PRESIDENT JONES REVIEWS CALL PRESIDENT JONES REVIEWS CALL EXECUTIVE BOARD WILL MEET AT ALEXANDRIA, LOUISIANA—OFFICERS AND CORRESPONDING SECRETARIES TO BE PRESENT. Vicksburg, Miss.—Owing to many persistent rumors relative to the change of the meeting place of the Executive Committee, President E. P. Jones, of the National Baptist Convention, was called on today and renewed or re-affirmed his bid to call wherewith he called the Executive Committee of his convention to meet in Alexandria, La., at noon Wednesday, June 12, at which time the Sunday School Congress will be in session. "I have always endeavored to carry out the wishes of the convention," declared President Jones, "but after the Memphis Conference the impression got out that the Executive Committee should be called at some other time, so I took it up with the members of the Committee. As a result I was deluged with requests to allow the first call to remain, and, according to the requests of the brethren, the meeting will remain as first stated." President Jones seems much ennured over the outlook of a great gathering both at Alexandria, La. and a little Rock, Ark, next September. The call is as follows: "TO THE MEMBERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BOARD OF THE NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION: "This is to certify that on Wednesday, June 12th, at 12 m., at Alexandra, La., the Executive Board of the National Baptist Convention will convene with the Union Baptist Church, pastored by Rev. G. W. Davis. It is pleasing to announce that our Sunday School Congress will be in session at the same time, and the number of members will be cordially and heartily welcomed to attend the session. I earnestly insist that this meeting of the Congress engage the attention of our entire ministry to the end that the twenty thousand Sunday schools of the county may be represented. Inspiration and vision must follow where perfect preparation has been made to uplift and enlighten. The session of the Executive Board, aside from arranging a program for the convention which convenes at Little Rock, Ark. Sept. 4, 1918, must consider the need for a program discussed throughout the country. "This Board is composed of the officers and corresponding secretaries as well as the vice presidents of the National Convention, and each member is urged to be present. In the midst of the darkened hours of the most cruel war known to history, President Wilson requested that all assemble at their various churches on May 30th, and there seek assistance through prayer for Divine guidance, that righteousness and liberty may prevail, and I heartily envision that this order is obeyed, and at the same time, remember that an 'Abiding Peace' is to be coveted in our own ranks, and that God's assistance must be implored. "Assuring you of our earnest hope to meet you at Alexandria, 1 am. "Yours to serve. "E. P. JONES, President, C. P. MADISON, Secretary." SMITHVILLE.

Luke Patterson and S. M. Patter and Rev. New of Cookville. The ladies had prepared lunch for the boys and their wives Sisters and other relatives, all seemed in high spirit and enjoyed their lunch much. At the close all the boys were presented with abath towel and a cake of soap, and on Monday, April 29th, all reported at the P. O.

Olive Baptist Church of which Dr. C. H. Clark is pastor was the ordination of Mr. R. L. King as deacon. Mr. King was chosen some time ago to fill the place made vacant by the death of one of the members of the deacon board. Although a young man Mr. King has won the very highest regard of the members of the church and the community and enjoys the benefits of his Electron as deacon of a church to the Mt. Olive is a tribute to his Christian spirit and his worth as a man. The services conducted Sunday were under the supervision of the pastor. The charge to Mr. King was made by Rev. H. A. Boyd, Secretary of the Sunday School Congress and Asst. Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board. The charge to the church was given by Rev. V. E. Shipp, teacher of the Metoka Class of the Sunday school. The Hand of fellowship was given by Rev. Lewis followed by the deacons of the church. Mr. King is a Nashville product being a graduate of the Pearl High School. He is a brother of Miss N. E. King. He has a number of years has been employed as a trust at the National Baptist Publishing Board. He has many relatives and friends who will watch with interest his successful career in the service of the Christian church. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH Sunday at six a. m. The pastor Stewards, Stewardess, members, friends, together with the ten candidates marched down the banks of the Cumberland river singing "In bright mansions above." This music was indeed inspiring, "itwas manner to the hungry soul and the weary rest." The baptizign was carried out in an orderly manner. At 9:30 a. m. the Sunday school opened with a large attendance. The adult department rendered a short program. The superintendent, Mr. Shackleford, had asked each pupil to wear roses; red roses in honor of living mothers, white roses in memory of dead mothers. At 11:30 a. m., the pastor preached a plain and practical sermon on "Mothers Influence." Five hundred people wanted next Monday and Tuesday May 20 and 21, 1918. Auspices Missionary Society Bethel A.

Sunday, May 12, Mother's Day was observed at the Tabernacle Baptist Church, Rev. H. M. Hurns pastor, at 8:30 p. m. He filled the pulpit, taking for his text. Ex. 20:12, theme. "Mother." He said in part that the mothers of our race stood in a class to themselves, that there was not on record any race where the mothers have made more sacrifices for her offspring or sent up more prayers to a throne of grace than our own dear mothers, that her children might enjoy more and better privileges than had been hers to enjoy. And too the mother of today was sacrificing her hearts blood on the altar to her country that a lasting democracy might reign over the entire world. The common was an appeal for more heirs to be given indeed very touching. The question of not being slackers is an especially important one with us just now, for coming in the near future is our annual May festival, and each member will be expected to do their bit to wards making it a grand success. The pastor and Committee on Arrangements have mapped out an elaborate program, which will furnish wholesome pleasure and enjoyment for the four nights run, Commencing Monday, May 27, closing Thursday, May 30. If you want to have a good time and get more than your money's worth, get a season ticket and come every night. A different program has been arranged for each night. This is one of the issues leading up to our one thousand dollar rally which we expect to pull of in June. The proceeds to go for enlargening our church. Which we find very necessary to do as we can not on any special occasion accommodate our congregation in our present home. Sunday school opened at 9:30 a.m., Supt. H. Morgan called the school to order after Bible Studies the lesson was reviewed by Rev. H. M. Burns. Bublest of lesson the mission of life. 87 scholars were present. B. Y. P. U. in the absence of the Presidat the class was called to order by the Secretary, Miss Nettie Weakley at 7 o'clock. Onening song 102 from Celestial Showers. Scripture reading Psalms 120. Prayer by Miss Minnie Watkins. The lesson was taught by Miss Allie Ruthledge and interestingly discussed by the class. We are glad to know that Mrs. Lovie Woods is convalescent and will soon be out. We hope the class will visit Mrs. C. F. Blakemore at the Hale Hospital. THIRD QUARTERLY CONFERENCE Prospects, Tenn., May 13, 1918. Brown Chapel A, M. E. Church of the Shelbyville District, Dr. F. W.

We are wide awake on the Brown Chapel Cir. and peace and harmony exist between pastor and people. MOLASSES AND ICE CREAM EAT ING CONTEST... One of the most interesting and enjoyable entertainments of the season was the Molasses and Ice Cream Eating Entertainment that was given at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church Monday night by the Sunday school. Some time ago the members of the school took a trip to Palestine the men going one way and the women the other. The progress on the trip was determined by the number of new scholars brought into the different division by the men and the women and the classes raising more than 20 each Sunday. When the smoke of battle cleared away, it was discovered that the men had entered the promised land before the women. It was one of the conditions of this trip that the vanquished should eat molasses and bread in the presence of the victors, while they ate cream and cake. The novelty of the occasion brought out a good crowd. Most of the women declared that molasses gave them "Heart burn" but they were forced to make an effort to eat them. Later the victors grew kind and they were served cream and cake. The master of ceremonies was Mr. G. P. Baker, the efficient superintendent. He called on several of the Metokas and Galedas present and fitting remarks were made by each. MT. NEBO BAPTIST CHURCH AND SUNDAY. SCHOOL. NOTES The members of the Mt. Nebo Baptist Church are all looking forward to their annual rally which will be held Sunday, May 19th. Services will be held all day, beginning at 9:30 with the Sunday school.

In his letter to Senator Overman expressing his hostility to the Chamberlin spy bill, President Wilson referred to the Germans as "people we are fighting and affecting to despise." Since the President is perhaps the most careful writer that ever the White House has seen for a goodly time, there is room to wonder what is meant by that. To affect is to pretend. Does the President mean that Americans are pretending to despise certain qualities of the Germans? We do not despise these qualities and he cynically tells us that our "affected despising of the qualities is all a "gigantic bluff." Does the President's judicial attitude carry him so far that he cannot see the essential difference between the American people and the German people—nothing among the things that Americans possess that entitles us to be full of pride, nothing among the things that are peculiarly German which justifies us in looking down upon them? Surely that was not the President's meaning. Surely he does despise along with the rest of us the German spirit that led Louvain Dinant, the cavell murder, the Belgian and French deportations, the use of poison gas, the bombing of women and children, the devastating of conquered regions, the hypocrisy of Brest-Litovsk, the condonement of Armenian massacres, the firing on open boats, the spurios versenki policy, the Zimmerman policy in Mexico and all the interminal rest of it. Neither the president nor any other thinking American despises or "affects" to despise the solid accomplishments of Germany. Certainly we do not despise or affect to despise her military powers. But her inhumanity and cynical and world wide brutality, her lust for dominion based on force, her medivalism we do unqualifiedly and heartily despise. Those things are fit to be despised by great nations who dare put their contempt into words and by little nations who are helpless through proximity to the monster. The President for once in his selection of terms must have made a blunder. It cannot be that he that reserves his contempt for those who say the despise Germany. The President of all Americans, must have a feeling of disgust toward Jrussianism amounting to a hatred, no matter how great his sympathy and pity for the people who are most oppressed. GEN WOOD RECOMMENDS Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood was not called into conference by the President, notwithstanding or perhaps because of the insistence of the senate military affairs committee that he be called. Nevertheless the public need not feel itself in doubt as to what the general would have recommended if he had seen the president. The statements later published that he made before the senate committee were illuminating. As a subsequent to which the general submitted in Kansas City, on his way back to Kansas, amplified those statements in several respects. We should have an army of 5,000,000 men in training, said the general. That figure includes those now under arms. Half of the 5,000,000 should be got to Europe as speedily as ships could be found to carry them, he contends. "We have no right to think this will be a short war," he asserted. "We are facing a people who are all efficient and all powerful in the art of war. Until we can face them on equal terms we cannot turn the tide. We have only begun to draft our man power. The drafts in the future will be larger and larger, and we might as well prepare for it. "The situation we face means that everything in the country, men, women, youth, material, all our resources, all our moral and spiritual forces must be thrown into the war. Only in that way can we win, and we must win." As an immediate step to prepare for the training the larger drafts of the future Maj. Gen. Woods recommends the establishment of new officers training camps to accommodate 40,000. He would have the camp put on a basis of six months' training, not three, and would pick older men, men from 35 to 40, for officer material. Forgetting altogether the petty and humiliating history of Maj. Gen. Wood's relation to the present administration and considering his proposals as if they were made by any other officer of standing, do they not appear wise and prudent? Maj. Gen. Wood has a great respect for German fighting machine as such, and has no sympathy with the notion that it can be beaten by half measure. In that particular, the Globe is quite at one with him. The government is already by way of taking steps to raise a vastly larger army. How about officiering it? A CONNECTICUT REACTIONARY Senator Brandages of Connecticut, has been thoroughly roused by recent events in congress and elsewhere, and has been constrained to make a protest. He has been able with difficulty to tolerate the complacency of Secretary Baker in the presence of the war crisis. But he has been able to maintain decorous conduct and circumspect speech until the discussion of what seemed to him extraneous and irrevekan questions came before the senate. Woman suffrage and prohibition were too much for him. At that point he had to protest against such discussions "During the war." "Why," thundered the Senator, "we won every war we ever were in without women suffrage and prohibition." He refers to the revolutionary war, war of 1812. The Mexican war, the war of 1800-65, and the Spanish American war. Through them all he says, their pink tea parties, and no talking about putting ping chemises on men and Plymouth Rock pants on women." He closes his oratorical period with the declaration on that "the women do not propose to go ever in the trenches abroad and do the fighting Nor is the senator in favor of reducing the soldiers' rations so os not include liquar, for he has no use for prohibition for the lads in the army. The idea of "filling the belly with ice water" before the men go "over the top" against shot and shrapnel and machine gun and poisonous gass" is revolting to him, and he asserts that "war is not going to be won by fads and fancies," by which he means woman suffrage and prohibition. And he adds the definite advice. "Now, let's get down to brass tacks and war the war." STOP IT. There is a Negro preacher styling himself as the "Black Billy Sunday" We wonder if it is necessary to style himself in that way in order to make a success of his calling. We are sorry for him as it goes in a measure to prove what the white folks say of us, the Negro at his best is an "imitator" Now couldn't this fellow preach as effectively and lift just as good a collection without this Black Billy Sunday business? Hasn't he merit and originality enough to deliver the gospel goods without all the Blak Billy Sunday Tommy rot? It is time the Negro was standing on his own hind legs without trying to ape every sensational white man they see or hear of. "Black Billy Sunday," gosh, the very thought of it is manseous. Where is the name his mother gave him, is he ashamed of it? What in the thunder has the original Billy Sunday ever done that should endear him to the Negro race? The intelligent Negroes of the nation are sick and tired of these monte-banks who are ever ready to grab some white man's name, affix black to it, go out fleece the unwary and raise the devil. Let the Negro be proud of his own accomplishments, let him imitate the noted of his own race and to hell with such names as Pattie, Black Vernon Castle, Black Spurgeon and Black Billy Sunday. The Globe finds cause for sadness in the fact that lots of Negro lads are going over there not for the purpose of vindicating a social evolutionary philosophy, but for the coarse purpose of busting hell out of the kaiser Still, while the social-evolutionary concept is better for winning syllogisms and speeding periods, it has to be admitted that the other state of mind is first rate backing for a bayonet. The old story of a shell that would pierce all existing armor and then of an armor that would resist any shell if it be repeated, it appears in another naval way. First a destroyer that can outhit any submarine, then a super-submarine that outhit any destroyer. Eventually a super-destroyer of still greater power, and so on and on and on. In time, no doubt, we shall have the Dread Nautilus. Well, have you bugged your potatoes yet? NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY MAY 17, 1918 "Made in Nashville" TO WRITE IT RIGHT JUST WRITE QUINO HAIR GROWER BEST BY TEST" GANTT QUINO SCHOOL, 636 Food St., Nashville, Tenn. Tennessee has not had a real sure sure enough red blooded United States Senator since the days of Isham G Harris, Wm. B. Bate and Howell E Jackson. Bate and Harris were veri- table intellectual giants shedding Ius- tre over the entire nation. They were not peanut politicians but eminent statemen whom Tennesseeans were proud to honor. They served the people wisely and well. It is about time for the national republican party to begin showing signs of life and intelligence if it expects to get anywhere in the next decade. Just as a starter, why not announce the party's war aims. After a woman has been married a month or two she discovers that seeing a man only Wednesday and Sunday evening is a vastly different proposition from seeing him every day in the week. One difference between 'em is that the Secretary of the navy usually says, "We have some so and so" while the secretary of war says, "We shall do so and so or substantially that." Possibly the President found the pain and shock of grasping that hot exhaust pipe somewhat discounted by his earlier experience anent the Wisconsin senatorship. A girl may not be very smart but whenever she gets a note from a man containing the injunction, "Burn this" she knows this is the letter to hang onto. We wish to compliment our South Pittsburg correspondent, she certainly knows how to write. She uses only the choicest king's English. The first few weeks after the war ends will be like the moment of deafening silence that follows the last crashing notes of a brass band. It doesn't make any difference what a woman gets, there is always something a little more expensive she wishes she could have had. If what Mr. Borgium says of the sinking of millions is true our program was rather subterranean than aerial. Somehow or other we'd rather a man would flatter than tell the brutal truth just to be hurtful. Up to the present the effort to underline the glum in Gorgium has not produced perfect results. And, all fraternal gatherings should not be held this year, conservation should be the watchword. It becomes a real war garden when you find your neighbor's old hen and her brood foraging in it. You never can convince an aunt that parents know what is best for the child she is fond of. But, The Birth of a Nation finished its booking undisturbed by Mayor Gupton? By and by those bells of Berlin are going to crack under the strain. A lot of brilliant men have no common sense and eventually fail. There are a lot of deserters who never belonged to an army. Circumstances alter cases, sometimes for the worse. Eulyses Childress. May Rules, 1918.

COOK, Clerk. N. H. LINGUER, D. C. Nashville, Tenn. Dear Sir: I find on reading the report of the Davidson Co. Teachers' meeting which was held in the Court house, Nashville, Tenn., that there were several tpyographical errors. As I am the reporter, I ask that the following corrections be made in this week's issue of the globe: Paper on Landmark of GIts Cecile Mahaffey and not Cecile Mai Haffey. Teacher's duty to the Institute, Mrs. Nannie P. Porter, not Minnie P. Porter. On reporting Prof. J. Ira Watson's address an injustice was done him in an error which says that he is a grouchy pessimist, any one having heard Prof. Watson at any time, know that he is an optimist, and the statement should have been, "His humorous addresses will make even a grouchy pessimist see the silver lining of a cloud." He is an apostle of sunshine. Thanking you in advance for these corrections. Respectfully yours, Nannie P. Porter, reporter.

Quite a beautiful program was rendered by the Ladies Guilds of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church for this most sacred one. "Mother," Sunday evening, May 12th, 1918. In the absence of the pastor, Rev. Spencer Jackson, who is visiting the south, the service was opened by the Sunday school superintendent, Mr. William Hollins. After listening to the splendid remarks of Rev. Hemphill on Mother, M(1) Frank Dawson, President of the guild, spoke beautifully on the same subject. Sole—Holy City, Miss Ella Hendry. Sole—in memory of mother, Miss Annie Rucker. Instrumental—Beautiful star of Heaven, Miss Florence Foster. Sole—Mother, Mrs. S. White. Benediction—Rev. Hemphill. CARD OF THANKS Words are inadequate for me to express my appreciation of the kindness and thoughtfulness of our friends who came to my rescue when the death angel entered our home and took away my husband, Dr. G. E. White, leaving me completely enveloped in a cloud of blackest sorrow. I am deeply grateful for the beautiful floween which covered his bier, the little tokens of thoughtfulness given me and the many letters of condolence from friends in the city and in distant states who sought to comfort and console. These kindnesses shine forth like rays of purest gold in a very black cloud, which might have completely hidden the face of the Master, had not their shining rays revealed Him. I am very grateful.

Chicago, Ill., May 11th, 1918. The General Conference of the C. M. E. Church which is in session here just re-elected Rev. J. Arthur Hamlett, editor o the Christian Index. Perhaps more interest centered in his re-election than in any other matter that has as yet come before the Conference. For years it has been considered a grave blunder and suicidal for an editor of the church papers to critic he official conduct of the Bishops When editor in chief was elected four years ago he gave notice that no one high or low would escape his critical pen, and living up to that policy has put nearly all the Bishops of the church against him with Bishop C. H. Phillips leading the fight. The issue was whether the policy of editor Hamlett who insists on freedom of speech would be sustained or whether the Bishops who have unlimited power could put Mam- lett out of the way just as they have done other editors who have dared criticize them. Bishop Phillips backed Dr. G. M. Noble of KY, while Bishop Williams backed Dr. J. A. Martin of Ga. When the voting was over it was found that Hamlett received all of 370 votes except 64 which both the other candidates received. Thus the C. M. E. Church goes on record of support of Christian manhood. NASHVILLE PEOPLE ENTERTAIN ED. BY CHICAGOIANS. Messrs C. C. Childress and E. S.

Among the recent appointments made by the President was that of Prof. Geo. Edmond Haynes of the city, who has been appointed as Director of Negro Economics in the Department of Labor by Mr. W. B. Wilson, the Secretary of Labor. The friends of Prof. Haynes of this city regard this as quite a recognition of his usefulness. He is already in Washington and it is understood that his family will join him as soon as they shall have finished their visit with relatives in Alabama. THE PASSING OF MOTHER SLAUGHTER In the death of Mother Slaughter, which occurred Tuesday, May 7, at the family home. Archer street Tabernacle Baptist Church loses one of its oldest members. Although a sufferer for many years, she was patient on resigned, an edifying spirit of faith being evidenced throughout all her illness. The funeral was held from this church Thursday, May 9, 1918. Rev. H. M. Burns officiating, Rev. Perkins assisting. Rev. Burns paid a beautiful tribute to Mother Slaughter's long Christian Life having passed her ninety sixth year and the great sixteenth year spent. In the Master's vineyard. When the end came she had nothing to do but to fold her arms and fall asleep in the arms of her Saviour. THE NEGRO AND THE WAR. The colored people are rallying to the call of patriotism all over the country. They are giving their sons, their money and their energies to the task of mobilizing the Nation for the cause of democracy. For the Negro holds his citizenship high. The friends of the United States are his friends. Its foes are his foes. The United States draws no color line in the Army and Navy. It summons Negroes to arms just as it does whites. More than 700,000 men of color registered, and already 100,000 of these have been called to the training camps to fit themselves for service. Thirty-six per cent of all the Negroes examined were certified as physicist for the National Army, a radio blast team to show, in 16 cantonments scattered throughout the Northern and Southern States the dusky troops are being prepared to meet the Hun. In the old Regular Army of the pre-war days were four colored regiments—the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantry and the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry. These troops proved their value in Cuba during the Spanish-American War, just as they did in the Indian campaigns on the border. They are notably steady under fire, patient to endure hardships, cheerful and good-natured at all times. And they can fight. The War Department has organized a division of colored troops, known as the Ninety-second. To lead these men 750 colored officers were commissioned after a course of training at Fort Dodge, Iowa. Already a number of Negro chaplains have been named to serve with these and more are soon to be appointed. Three regiments of Artillery have been formed and a school for Signal Corps training has been organized. Howard University, an institution for colored people in Washington, D. C., will be trained to apply technical training to promising men of that race. At least 550 Nerrores are engaged in Y. M. C. A. work in the Army. Some of these are now in France with the troops serving under Gen. Pershing. Back of the actual fighting army is the army of civilians at home. The Negroes of the country have joined in every activity that evinces a spirit of patriotism. They show a whole-hearted desire to take their full share of the war load. They support the principles which President Wilson has defined for us, and they assume cheerfully the burden laid upon the country as a whole. The way that the colored citizen has taken hold of the Liberty loan is encouraging. Five thousand Negroes recently attended a patriotic meeting in a small North Carolina town and issued a record for the outpourance of their arresting example. "This is good but not at all surprising," comments the Charlotte (N, C.) Observer. "The southern Negro has long ago proved his intense patriotism. In wars of the past he has shown that his valor is second to none, and in patriotic undertak- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY MAY 17, 1918. ings in civil life he has done his part in that part that has been made clear to him." The Mosaic Templars, with head- quarters in Arkansas, subscribed $25,000 to the first Liberty loan and later invested an additional $50,000. Recently Secretary McAdoo telegraphed the Knights of Pythas of Florida, another colored order, his appreciation their support, and his support for bonds. The Provident Anti Mui- tual Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., put $5,000 of its spare funds in the loan. No figures are available to show the total amount of bonds and war- saving stamps purchased by the col- ored people. As a rule they have bought at the banks where they did business, and no record has been kept of sales made particularly to them. But to show how extensive these have been it may be mentioned that their business has been to date bonds to the value of more than $50,000 to Negroes of that vicin- ity. Both white and colored speakers have toured the country to enthuse the Negroes for the Liberty loan and the response has been easier and enthusiastic, an emphatic repudiation of the German propaganda which has attempted to stir up the colored part of our population to sedition. The organizations in charge of war recreation work have not forgotten the colored troops. As much is being done for them pro rata as for the white soldiers. The Commission of Training Camp Activities, which co-ordinates the work for the soldier done by the American Library Association, the Y. M. C. A. As the Knights of Columbus, the Y. M. C. A. as the Jew of the Jordan for Welfare Work, and other organizations, looks out for the colored troops as well as the white. The "Y" huts and the Liberty theatres are open to all, and at Fort Funston, where the Ninety-second division is stationed, a Liberty theatre for colored troops alone is soon to be opened. One of the most important factors in gingering up the troops is mass singing, which has both a recreational and a military value. The singing of a song lifes the weary men over the last mile of a long hike and under the discomforts of camp life raises the spirits and breeds comradeship. The colored troops are the best singers in the camps. They have a natural gift for expression in song, and a spontaneous originality. They also camp one quartet gave "A Perfect Day" with responses in gospel-hymn fashion that brought down the house. The War Camp Community Service division, which takes care of the soldier in his relations to the adjoining community, serves the soldiers regardless of color. It establishes hostess homes in the cities adjoining the camps for the use of NGO troops when off duty. Dinners, dances and vaudeville shows are furnished. From Washington, for instance, each wee amateur or professional entertainers are sent out to Camp Meade to entertain the soldiers of the Dunbar High School (colored) gave a French play and afterwards repeated the same drama in English. One of the purposes of the Community Service is to fight the German propaganda that has been busy trying to poison the minds of the colored people. This took the form of stories that the Negro troops are to be sent to France first and are to be sacrificed to save the whites. The whisper ran that many more than the proportionate number of Negro troops were sent to service. Leaders of the Negro war went out and answered these charges in meetings, explaining how baseless they were. The war council of the the W. Y. C. A. is devoting $200,000 of its $5,000 war budget to its work among Negro women. The money is used to provide maintenance for hostess houses for the families of colored troops, for emergency housing and recreational work among colored girls in war industrial centers, for furnishing the houses there and for keeping W. C. A., and for doing anything possible to protect colored girls in war time. The workers in these houses help the women relatives of men in the service and encourage them to take advantage of the present unprecedented opportunities in the industrial world. Most of the Army camps already have hostess houses for colored troops. The one at Camp Upton is a training school for workers at the Army recreation center for Negro girls have been opened in Washington Brooklyn and New York. The colored secretary of the national board of the Y. W. C. A. has charge of this work. Through her the Negro women are inspired to rise to their opportunity, and, as the teachers of the school, maintain the wage and labor standards of the men whose places they are taking. The activity of colored women in Red Cross and other war work has been notable. At Washington, for an example, all Negro troops coming from Fort Meade are met at the trains and invited to the hostess house at 1634 Fourteenth street, where they will matter, entertainment and beds are supplied to the boys on furough. The war has brought to the Negro a better chance for national self-expression than any event in his history, and he is making the most of his opportunity. Much of the best talent of the race has been absorbed in meeting the need caused by speeding up war industries. Graduates of the university have found a ready field for the use of their knowledge and trained skill. The demand for educated Negroes has exceeded the supply. No such impetus has ever before been given to education for the Negro. It is true that the illiteracy of the race has decreased from 90 per cent at the close of the civil war to 30 per cent today, but the necessity of wiping out ignorance has been called sharply to our attention by the demands which the war is making against the Negro. The problem of training of the Negro is a problem which concerns both races. To leave one-third of the colored people under velded is failure to utilize the resources of the Nation.

McCLELL 450 Forrest Ave, Chicago, IL FUNERAL SERVICES FOR MR HENRY FLOYD. Solemn and impressive indeed were the funeral services held over the remains of Mr. Henry Floyd who died at his home last week. The services were held from the New Hope Baptist Church in South Nashville with Revs. J. C. Harding, J. L. Harding and A. L. Whittaker officiating. Special music was rendered by the choir. Up to several weeks before his death Mr. Floyd was a valuable employee of the National Baptist Publishing Board of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated) of which Dr. R. H. Boyd, D. D., is Secretary and enjoyed the confidence and esteem of fellow craftsmens. He left the employ of the institution where he had labored for so many years and went to work at the great powder plant that the Gorevment is building at Hadley's Bend. He was thus employed when he was taken ill. Everything possible was done for his relief and to make recovery possible but he answered the great call leaving mourn his sick brother whose only child was a wife, two children and a host of relatives and friends. The floral offerings covering his bier were many. The employees of the press room of the institution where he labored attended the funeral in a body. Interment was at Greenwood. Taylor and Co., were in charge. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE HAS PUR CHASED TOTAL OF $85,000 IN LIBERTY BONDS. Tuskegee, Alabama, May 11—The workers of Tuskegee Institute have subscribed more than $5,000 worth of the Third Liberty Loan and together with the students invested about $4,000 in Thrift Stamps and War-Savings Certificates, making a total of about $5,000. In addition to this, the Institute, a corporate body of the University of the Third Liberty Loan Bonds, making a grand total of approximately $5,000 invested by the school to help win the war; $50,000 having been previously subscribed by the school. FIFTIETH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL Presented to the Hampton Institute Board of Trustees on Saturday, May 11, by Dr. George P. Phenix, Vice Principal. Hampton, Va., May—Dr. George P. Phenix, vice principal of Hampton Institute since 1908, in his report to the Board of Trustees, discussed the school's work since the death of Dr. Hollis B. Frissell and reviewed the growth of Hampton during fifty years. He said: "General Armstrong had to justify his new project in the eyes of three groups of people: The Negro race, who would supply the student-body; the white North, who alone of all the people of the country were able to finance the venture; and the white South, who were sceptical as to the value of any kind of education for Negroes." The average annual enrollment at Hampton has been as follows: First decade, 220; second, 559; th.d. 661; fourth, 755; and fifth, 878. The figures do not include Hampton's neighborhood or the summer school. Dr. helix said: "That the people of the North have believed in the type of training for which Hampton stands is proved by the generous manner in which they have supported it. The same friends who have contributed to current expenses have created an endowment and to assure the permanency of the school. "The sympathy of the white South with riampton's work is absolutely essential. Sympathy has grown with understanding, and the school today enumerates among its most loyal friends Southern men and women of influence and prominence. The manners in which the Slater Fund, the General Education Board, and the Jeanes Fund have contributed for Negro schools in Southern communities has done much to acquaint Southern people—especially school men—with this type of education, which was literally 'new' not so long ago. The interest of the white South in Negro schools is growing every year. Indeed, all things considered, it has grown in the past as rapidly as could reasonably be expected. There are many difficulties which persons living outside the South cannot comprehend, but these are constantly growing less and will some day become more difficult. The close of the first half-century of Hampton's history finds the relation between the races in the South, the progress of Negro education, and the school itself, in a condition which the most extreme optimist of fifty years ago could hardly have dared to hope for, and there is every reason for facing the second half-century with faith and courage. "Generations of children yet unborn will have a better chance in life with out," he said. "They are in increased because of the life and work of Hampton's late Principal, Dr. Hollis R. Frissel." Dr. Phenix also referred to the educational value of good buildings; increasing costs in the boarding departments; the loyalty of Hampton's friends; the school's excellent health facilities and honor roll; the Negro and the World War; and evolution of the Hampton courses of study.

The next meeting will be held with the First Congregational Church of Chattanooga, Tenn., in April, 1919. BUSINESS LEAGUE BOOSTERS By Albon L. Holsey. Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—From time to time we have referred in these articles to the fact that advertisers and merchants generally are becoming more and more appreciative of the value and importance of Negro patronage. Such evidences of appreciation manifest themselves in various ways, but they all mean for Negro newspapers more and more advertising in the way they mean for the business men of our race more and more attention to advertising and selling methods, such as are employed by business houses of other races, so that they may always be assured of their portion of the Negro patronage. Pride of race alone will not always compel our people to trade with one another. After all, it is a question of service and prices. A Trade publication in New York recently called *Wear* recently published an article on the Negroes of St. Louis and this article contains the following very significant statement: "The trade of Negroes in St. Louis at the present time is worth while merchants say. The Negro is valued as a buying unit in department stores, for his trade as a rule is on a cash basis. Not so long ago, the Negro population was not particularly considered as a buying unit. What it bought was usually very cheap, or it did not buy at all. But that time has gone by, and today, because of the great increase in the wages of a laborer, the Negro's trade must be taken into consideration. This especially applies where there is a large colored population, as there is in St. Louis, where there are probably 50,000 Negroes. Under present labor conditions, the wage earner is bringing big money into the home, and where there is money for the Negro, there will be clothes." UNION TWICE VICTORIOUS OVER WILBERFORCE. By T. P. Turner, Jr. Once more has Virginia Union University been accredited with the successful culmination of a paradoxical feat in the forensic world. In the joint debate with Wilberforce University, Union's affirmative team composed of Messrs. R. P. McGuinn and D. Webster Davis, in Richmond, maintained that "Compulsory Military Training Should Be Adopted as a Policy by the United States." At the same time, on Wilberforce campus, the negative combination, Messrs. W. A. Young and H. S. Brown, triumphantly established that Compulsory Military Training was a dangerous hoax. This double victory is the cross La Guerre for Union. Howard, Lincoln and Shaw have succumbed time after time to mighter masters of argumentation from the red and steel machines. Last year Wilberforce succeeded in tying in Virginia Admiral an entire Ferry Fleet to complete victory for the Richmond boys sends Union over the top in inter-collegiate debates. Union for years has been recognized as king of the debating world by virtue of her many victories over the leading colleges. Her silverware, the peer of any turned out from the foremost universities and colleges. ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY SINGERS The Roger Williams University singer under direction of Mrs. A. A. M. Townsend, wife of the President, left Sunday night for Atlantic City, N.

An interesting visitor in the city last week was Capt. M. V. Boutte, who spent a few hours here before returning to his post at one of the government training camps, Capt. Boutte will be remembered as Dr. Boutte, the proprietor of three Northside Pharmacy on Jefferson where he and Mrs. Boutte endeared themselves to a host of friends and acquaintances Mrs. Boutte was considered one of the foremost educators in the south being for a number of years teacher of French at Fisk University and principal of one of the departments at the A. and I.

He won the rank of Captain and since that time has been stationed at Rockford, Ill., where the government has one o fits most efficient training camps for recruits. Mrs. Boutte joined her husband some time last fall. SECRETARY SCOTT AT CINCIN NATU, OHIO. Hincinnati, O., May, 11, 1918. Hon. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War visited our city under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. H. S. Dunbar, Secretary and spoke at Emery Auditorium to twenty-five hundred people. The frankness with which the Secretary spoke was a revelation to many who were dubious about the real authority with which the Secretary would be permitted to perform his duties. There is no doubt but that Secretary Scott is doing things and is leaving no stone unturned for the benefit of our boys. He is not at all timid about bringing any measure up to the several departments at Wellington to complain he reached him that our boys are being neglected or mistreated. A banquet largely attended was served at the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Scott was the town guest of his friend Jos. L. Jones, who by invitation visited Columbus, O., with him and Camp Sherman. At Columbus, Governor Cox postponed a visit to speak at the Chamber of Commerce with Mr. Scott, Mayor Korb was the Master of Ceremonies. General Glenn sent to take part in the parade in honor of the Secretary. At Camp Sherman the distinguished visitor was met at the station by Lieut. Col. Finch who immediately placed his car and chauffer at the disposal of Mr. Scott for the visit. Mr. Scott had a heart to heart talk with the colored officers. Mr. Jones also spoke to the officers.
