ANOTHER RELLIGIOUS HOUSE
C. M. E. CHURCH SEES FIT TO CHAN
PLANT—DR. J. A. HAMLETT,
INDEX WILL BE
Another Religious Publishing House has been secured for Nashville and another enterprise that will employ Negro help and Negro labor has been awarded the City of Opportunity. This time it is the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church which in its recent General Conference held at Chicago, voted to move the C. M. E. Publishing House from Jackson, Tenn., to Nashville, and the order was that as soon as practicable the Rev. Dr. Martin who is the agent, proceed to carry out the instructions to move the location to the capitol city of the state. While the announcement of the establishment of this new religious enterprise is belated in being made, the city of Nashville and its business interests have already lined up and are making every possible effort to assure the C. M. E. people that they have begun wise and forward steps. The plant located at Jackson with all its machinery is to be dismantled and moved. They publish a complete series of Sunday school literature under the auspices of their connection. Not only will the Publishing House with its interests come, but the Christian Index, the official organ of the C. M. E., edited by Dr. J. W. Thurston will come with the plant, thus securing another newspaper. In addition to this the secretary of education under the C. M. E. Church is also to establish office in this city.
Just where the new Publishing plant will be located has no yet been agreed upon, but it is understood that a number of real estate men and business firms and affiliating publishers have offered their services. Letters of congratulations have been poured in upon Dr. J. A. Lester, who is a member of the publishing committee and the president of the layman's movement congratulating the church upon what is regarded as perhaps the best move they made for a number of years. While he voted on organic union was regarded as an important piece of legislation, the consummation of seems that the most helpful part from which the church is to receive the greatest immediate relief will be the advantages secured by bringing such a plant to Nashville where it can have the co-operation and affiliation of the number of denominational plants already located in the city. It is stated that the M. E. Church, South with its mammoth concern on Broad Street, has congratulated the C. M. E. on the move that the National Baptist Publishing Board has also sent a letter of congratulations and that a number of other firms have done likewise. Just whether E. M. people will begin their dismantling of the location from Jackson to Nashville more could not be learned, but those in authority and higher up in Methodist circles feel that no time will be lost and that before long the wheels of the machinery and the office force of this institution and plant will be on their way to the "City of Opportunity."
Nashville, the "City of Opportunity," Caught the C. M. E. Publishing House—The C. M. E. Church Looking Forward—Another Indication of the popularity of Our City—A New Publishing House Coming.
Hon. J. C. Napier, City:
Dear Shr.: Have just returned to the University Conference of the C. M. E. Chairs in America recently held in Chicago. Ill. You have learned from the press that of the (386) three hundred and eighty delegates assembled, over (300) three hundred voted to move all or our publishing interests to this city. I am writing to know if your very kind and voluntary proposition of three months "housing" without cost to us still holds good?
I confess that I think I know you too well to thus ask, but I do not wish to go to print without confirmation.
Nashville, Tenn., June 6, 1918.
Dr. J. A. Lester, Nashville, Tenn.:
Dear Doctor: Replying to your letter of the third instant I have to say that in no sense have I any desire to recall my offer to you or last fall to furnish three months' housing to the publishing interests of your Church, provided they conclude to move their establishment to this city.
I further desire to say that I stand ready to comply with my offer and take this opportunity to congratulate you and your great and growing denomination on the advanced step you have taken in bringing your plant to this great center for the publication of religious literature for all denominations.
Very truly yours,
J. C. NAPIER.

Dear Sir: We have just learned officially that your church voted almost unanimously at Chicago to move its publishing house and its -publishing interests, including the Index from Jackson, Tennessee, to Nashville.
We congratulate your Church upon such a wise move. We feel that you have now done something for your publishing interests that will put you twenty years ahead incofar as advantages are concerned for your Church interests.

Nashville, Teen, June 4, 1918.
To the Bishops and Oniciats Members of the C. M. E. Church:
Mary Dear Brethren:
I see from the papers your General Conference recently held in Chicago, by a large majority, has decided to move your printing interests to this city. The race has a representation of more than forty thousand engaged in a great variety of business. Their wealth will compare favorably with any community, their power is strongly religious, with more than thirty churches, where they are gathered with their children to honor our God. Among this number you have already several well built churches with some of the very best people of this city as members; you have among these people professional and business men that stand equal to any one in the community.
On behalf of this representation of people we welcome you and your enterprises to this city of thrift and growth. On behalf of the Colored Citizens' Club we welcome all that you may bring with the promise that no good thing will we withhold from you.
Fraternally yours.
PRESTON TAYLOR.

Dr. J. A. Lester, Nashville, Teen: Dear Sir—We, the Sunday School Publishing Board, congratulate the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in America which, through its delegates to the general conference, which recently adjourned in Chicago, upon the selection of Nashville, Teen, as the site of its publishing interests.
We stand ready to co-operate with your great church in any way we can to advance the interest of their publishing plant, and thereby help meet the needs of a growing church.
With hearty congratulations.
OPPORTUNITY GIVEN THE NEGRO
EXCELLENT AVENUE PRESENTED BY WORLD WAR-JUDGE HARRISON DELIVERS RINGING ADDRESS.
The Daily Democrat, Martin, Tex.
The opportunity presented through the world war to the American Negro for the advancement of his race was shown clearly in an address delivered at the Marlin Negro Baptist church Monday evening by William Harrison, lawyer and an ex-judge of Oklahoma City, who has been selected by the government as one of the leaders of his people in the country to go about among them, especially in the southern states, for the purpose of arousing patriotism for the purpose of the war to a successful conclusion.
His address was logically prepared and effectively delivered, ringing true of Americanism throughout.
"The very color of the Negro is proof conclusive that he is not disloyal or unpatriotic," the speaker said. "In support of which I ask you to look upon the faces of the many alien enemies, I. W. W.'s German spies and other disturbing characters held in the jails of our country to prevent their impeding the conduct of the war, and I'll guarantee that you'll not find a black man among them.
"The Negro is loyal and the people have confidence in him. If a strange looking white man should come into Marlin acting peculiarly, some officer or defense council member might see it to investigate his movements. But if a strange look came into Marlin acting peculiarly, there would be no suspicion—the officer or any one else would just think he was a lost Negro, and if he asked them anything, they'd fell him.
The speaker recounted the military and civil accomplishments of the Negro in times past and predicted that greater things yet were to come out of this race.
"We are just a struggling baby race, hardly 60 years of age. And sometimes we totter. We need the help of the white man. We ask the white people to have patience with us. Be kind enough to consider our virtues as well as our vices. Too often the former are forgotten and the latter are stressed, particularly in the nation's press.
"Recently I delivered an address before a large audience of Negroes in a certain city. I appealed to their patriotism and great enthusiasm was worked up in the interest of the various war agencies". The next morning I scanned the local daily, but there was not one word in it about our meeting. However, another Ne

gro had come into that city the night before on a different mission. He snatched a lady's purse and got a half column write-up on the front page, while we, who were trying to do good and help our country in time of war, were overlooked."
The war thrift and saving movements were emphasized by the speaker as especially important for the Negroes to take up. He also insisted upon their whole-supported support of the Red Cross and other war activities.
The meeting which attracted an overflow audience, a large number of white people attending was presided over by Dr. A. L. Hunter, Marlin colored physician, who acted as master of ceremonies.
Special songs also lent interest to the meeting, own by a number of girls, especially enjoyed.
Silent, thought none the less impressive, evidence of what the Negroes are doing in the present war was displayed in a large service flag back of the pulpit of the church which was adorned with 180 small American flags, representing that number of Marlin and Falls county Negroes that are in the army, several being in France already.
EIG DELEGATION FROM BEAUMONT.
Special to the Nashville Globe.
Beaumont, Texas, June 3—An army of Sunday school workers from the city of Nashville lead Alexandria during this month. Prof. J. B. Eugene, who has been designated as commander-in-chief and who will lead the Sunday school forces from South Texas to North Louisiana's metropolis, has just sent word to the Sunday School Congress Secretary at Nashville, that they will leave fully prepared and equipped to do yeoman service. They will take with them a complete company of cadets and they are planning to put a Bible in the hand of every boy cadet and teach them how to read the time that the Congress held its session in this city the Sunday school work has been at a very high ebb. The pastors have co-operated with the Sunday school superintendents, and the result has been Front Line Sunday School endeavor among every church in Beaumont.
SUMMER INSTITUTE OF THE NATIONAL BAPTIST THEOLOGY
CAL AND TRAINING SEMINARY.
Rev. J. L. Harding of the Missionary Baptist Convention of Tennessee in speaking to the Baptists of the state says: "I believe in the ministers of our District Associations and State Conventions. They are in the work of the ministry because they feel a divine impulse prompting them (a call to the ministry) and because the promptings are divine they are under obligation to be as wise as serpents. No great opportunity like this will be allowed to slip by them. Young ministers without any training now and those who fail to attend the service will be a stock in the near future. Failure to attend this school will be a great sin of omission which will result in their dismiss from the work by the people. God never did nor can he make the intelligent masses listen to an ignorant preacher. Therefore our ministers will be at the school in large numbers.
DR. JOHN F. THOMAS COMING
Word has just been received that the Rev. John F. Thomas, D. D., the pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church of Chicago, Ill., is to spend Sunday in Nashville. Dr. Thomas is to deliver a sermon Sunday morning at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Few people who have lived in Nashville any length of time, and even those who have been away for years who do not know of his ability as a

churchman. He is the treasurer of the National Baptist Convention and one of the prime movers in the Sunday School Congress. During the thirteen years he has missed perhaps one session. He is often regarded as "the old young man," keeping up with all the affairs of the young people and seeing to it that nothing goes on not only in his church but in the denomination that he is a factor in it. His standing with the G. A. R.'s, being a retired soldier and a member of the Spanish War Veterans as well as the civil war veterans has made him an unique character. The announcement of his appearance at Mt. Olive has already brought forth assurance that there will be a large audience to hear him on Sunday morning.

CHILDREN IN PARADE—ROUSING WELCOME GIVEN.
Monroe, La., May 31—A more rousing welcome has never been given to a visitor than was bestowed upon Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, Secretary of the Sunday School Congress, who was the guest of Monroe, yesterday and last night. An entertainment and a program elaborate in its make up had been planned by Rev. W. W. Hill and the members of the Rev. W. Hillers Baptist Church, assisted by Rev. W. Hillers, the president of the Tenth District Sunday School Convention and the other local churches and pastors of the city. The Rev. Mr. Boyd arrived from Shreveport over the V. S. and P. at 1:30. A reception committee met him at the station. With this committee there was a brass band, seven automobiles and a large number of Sunday school children from the various Sunday schools carrying American flags and pennants. As soon as his train arrived he was met by the committee, placed in a waiting car and the parade formed of automobiles, headed by a brass band, followed by the Sunday school children and waiting vehicles. The principal streets were paraded. The parade was over a formal reception and dinner was given at 2:30 at the residence of Dr. T. H. Evans after a reception at the Zion School took him around the streets to see the sights. Another dinner and reception was given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. V. Belt, but the elimax came when at 8:30 the largest gathering the Zion Travelers Church has seen for years packed the main auditorium to hear the guest in his address on Front Line Sunday Schools. The following program was then rendered:

WELCOME ADDRESS
By Rev. W. E. Howard,
Monroe, La.
It is with profound pleasure and an ultimate degree of satisfaction that I welcome you to this august body and the illustrious sons of Ham, since we met last beneath us east and west, north and south, the country has been and is on the precipe of a mighty conflict, but I have prayed that our march here would be radiant with the marks of his golden footsteps, fresh with sunbeams stealing through the gates of the morning, and that the ineffable splendors of a new Jerusalem may burst upon our paths. I feel myself highly congratulated on—being the happy recipient of this gathering, and it is beiling to me to have come before you. Can a mother forget her child? I have been looking forward to be with you in many a day, and today I come to you strong with open arms laden with blooming fields and tamed to the wildest hails the fatted eel, baptized the chickens in hot water, and fried the steak in gravy, all for your comfort while you are here. God has built for us the masonry of the mountains—that infinitely transend the greatest of the old pyramids of Egypt.
Dr. Boyd, the whisper came to our ears of your coming to our city to make us a visit and speak to us on this great Sunday school, B. Y. P. U., A. F. Cadets, Cradle Roll, Metoka and Galeda Movements. We are here with you to make this occasion as pleasant as possible for your coming. You may not find our city as others with its seventy-five square miles of paved and asphalt streets, neither will you find many magnificent buildings with their heights 7, 8, 10 and 12 stories high, that you may view afar off with their illuminary lights—but as a progressive people who are sole owners of a municipal railway and electric power and water plant.
Dr. Boyd again we welcome you to our city and permit me to say here in the language once addressed to the youthful knights, scholars, jurists, artists, philanthropists, heroes of a Christian age and companions of a celestial knighthood, go forth, be brave, loyal and successful, and may it be our office here to light a fresh beacon fire sacred to truth and let the flames spread from hill to hill, from state to state, from island to island and from continent to continent, till the long lineage of fires shall illuminate all the nations of the earth, animating them to that holy contest of knowledge, justice, beauty and love. Then the hottentots of Africa, that tattooed savage, the crowned monarch and every nation, kindred and tongue shall confess and at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow and when that illustious day shall rise, and all God's army shine with robes of victory through the sky. I also welcome you
I take this great pleasure in welcoming you to this our city, with a population of about 10,000, white citizens and about 5,000 Negro citizens and your coming here will ever be on the memory of this people. We have abided your coming with patience and prayerful waiting. We have kept an attentive ear to the ground, praying that there would be no uncertainty to obstruct your coming and it is useless to say that God has been entrusted of us for you are here. The fat valleys and laughing plains bid you welcome to our city.
Omnipotence has moulded the mountain ranges, carved out the valleys, ploughed a furrow for the rivers, whiskey casks, idoles and painted the lily with a brush. He has also by a mysterious crank, turned the wheels of the universe and brought the seasons in their annual rounds to Louisiana, which has enabled us to welcome you to our rich city and fields, and fertile valleys f corn and cotton. Louisiana is a veritable garden, ying east of hot winds, north of hard times, west of the boll weevil and south of the panic.
Welcome to our city once, welcome twice, three times and forever.
WAR SAVINGS SOCIETY CAM
PAIGN AT Y. M. C. A. TUESDAY
NIGHT
A very enthusiastic meeting of the War-Savings Societies Campaign was held at the Y. M. C. A. Tuesday night, Hon. A. N. Johnson, chairman of the work among colored people, presiding. Prior to this meeting Mr. Johnson had sent out communications all over the city outlining the purpose of this meeting and at the same time stating in plain terms the obligation imposed by the government upon the people, as they had been stated to him in a meeting held at the Hermitage Hotel Sunday, when men from all parts of the state were present and government officials put squarely up to them what was to be done by the people under them and if they did not do the thing desired of them they were simply to report their names and the federal authorities would investigate why they did not do so. The meeting was opened with an earnest, plain, instructive talk by Chairman Johnson. At the conclusion of his remarks he introduced Lawyer Aust, who spoke for about twenty minutes of the subject uppermost in mind. He said in part: "My colored brethren and sisters, and I call you that adversely and with no attempt at patronizing. Thank God the day has passed in my life and it has passed in the life of many others when I can deny the brotherhood of a man because of his color. The day is passed and gone when we should ask is a man Protestant or Catholic.

Jew or Gentile, black or white. The question, uppermost in our mind at this time should be—is he an American? I don't know why I am here, unless it that I was simply invited to be with Mrs. Aust. When I was twenty-one years of age I was selected to the legislature of my state. Later it was thought that I could be of some use in Washington and I was there for several years. A little later I was captured by Mrs. Aust. At that time I was known as Mr. Aust, now I am simply the husband of Mrs. Aust. I am sure that I can tell you nothing that has not been told you by your chairman. At the meeting Sunday which was held at the Hermitage Hotel, I thought the best speech that was made in that meeting was made by your chairman. Mr. Johnson, and the next best by Prof. Hale. These men spoke from the audience and were sure true. If I could talk like that, they might be able to be of some assistance to you. I am like the Methodist bishop who preached a sermon to a colored congregation. It was a good sermon, and there were many manifestations from the amen corner. After the sermon the bishop asked an old colored man which he would rather have preach to him a white man or a colored man. The old man

instantly replied that he would prefer the colored preacher, but realizing the embarrassing situation that he had created, he added hastily—but, Bishop, you preach more like a black man than anybody I know. Now, the government is asking that you loan it a certain sum of money. Are you asked to give this money away? No. Are you asked to invest it in tobacco, snuff, or something to go inside of you that will not do you any good and will do perhaps a deal of harm? No. You are asked to invest this money and the government will pay you 4 per cent interest on this investment, compounded quarterly of $1.17 monthly you will be able to receive a certificate that will bring you $5 in 1923. This is the safest investment in the world backed up by the greatest government in the world. You est government in the world. Your loan to the government has behind it every acre of land from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Lakes to the Gulf, and every dollar that every citizen in the United States owns. To my mind the most miserable man in the world will be the man who, when the boys come marching back as they will come, your boys and my boys (and your boys are fighting over there right by the side of my boys and achieving glorious things); one of the most heroic things heard of in this war was the feat of two of your boys who, when surprised by twenty-three Germans, than give up dug hacks to pieces, but they did not leave their lives in danger, until they are dead. All that the only thing in all this world that I have to hand my name down to posterity is somewhere now near the English coast and will soon be in the trenches in France and had just as soon know that she was fighting with Negro soldiers as with men of his own color and had just as soon know that a colored boy would leap over the top and bring him back to safety as any other boy.
"These boys will come back some day with the brand of victory in their hands for the dastardly German has not been born who will be able to enslave tree America, and the most miserable man is all the world will be the man standing way back in the crowd ostracized by his neighbors and shunned by society who would not do his part in this great struggle for Democracy. And you will not think that you will not be found out. The Bible says: 'Be sure your sins will find you out.' This is not Bible but it is equally as true: 'Be sure your government will find you out.'"
A. AND M. COLLEGE CLOSES YEAR
ALABAMA SCHOOL ENDS FORTY-
THIRD SESSION—TWO STRONG
ADDRESSES HEARD—REV. A. C.
WILLIAMS A SPEAKER.
The State Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes closed its forty-third session here last night, with one graduate from the college department, three from the normal school, twelve from the high school, forty-two from trades, and twenty-four from the Sunday School Teacher's Training Department. The raising of a service flag containing sixty-seven blue stars and one gold star was a part of the Commencement exercises.
Two strong addresses stand out as prominent features of the closing program. The first was the Baccalaureate address by Rev. A. C. Williams, pastor of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, Birmingham, Ala., and the second was the Annual Commencement address delivered last night. Dr. J. W. E. President of Gammon Theological Seminary, Atlanta, Ga. Dr. Bowen is one of the war speakers. His address was heard by a large number of white people who pronounced it as a wise and eloquent piece of oratory, calculated to produce better feeling between the races in the south and to stimulate the Negro's patriotism and to stir him up to do his best to win the war at all costs.
Editor W. O. Adams, editor of the Birmingham Reporter, and Rev. John W. Goodgame, pastor of the Sixth Avenue Baptist Church of Birmingham, delivered interesting war speeches during the exercises.

TO GROW LONG, STRAIGHT HAIR
You Need a Real Scalp Food.
There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time as a scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the hair, the hair, causing a natural growth of under the Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced resurrected pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired.
To get best results from the use of Quinade k is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a very tough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers very soft, and fuzzy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo.

LYNCHING REVIEWED
In these days of worldwide commotion and disturbance, when our country is being attacked by open and avowed enemies abroad, and secret and dangerous enemies within its own border, it is obviously important that the country's most faithful and most patriotic citizens should be mistreated because their skin happens to be dark.
I say most faithful because they have never betrayed a trust; most patriotic because they have the most faithful and most patriotic birth; always responding to the demands of their government, both local and national.
History records the fact that the black man has never been a factor of disturbance in this country's government. In all of the great strikes from which the country has suffered most seriously, the Negro is an unknown quantity. The Booths, the Guiteaux and Cozolyosz have never been found anywhere in the race. The Negro has always tried to measure up to the requirements of his government. If the demand is for money, he gives all. If it is a duty or service, he is always found at his post sometimes dead, perbaps, but never asleep. In matters of trust he puts his life into his hand and goes forth determined to execute his important mission or die in the attempt. Again I repeat that it is obviously inopportune in these troubled moments that any one's treatment should be determined by the color of his skin. We are all alike citizens of this great commonwealth and we must avoid misapposition as we measure up to the requirements. But even now while we write these lines the news comes to us that another Negro in the sunny South has been sent to his long home because he was accused of an attempted assault up on a white woman. An awful entry with which to begin New Year when the country is taxed to its utmost capacity to control the existing war conditions. Let us see what is brought forward as a result of last year's mob violence.
Thirty-eight lynchings, including one woman and two white men, leav-
ing thirty-five Negro men who suffered death at the hands of the mob. None of these had an opportunity of self-defense. None had the benefit of trial by jury, none were consulted as to their final disposition. There was no appeal from the decision of souls were ushered into the presence of their maker, some innocent, and some perhaps, guilty; but all died to appease the mob appetite for Negro blood. Some of these acts of lynching were committed without provocation, and for the most trivial causes—not getting out of the road when meeting a white man, disputing a white man's word, writing an impudent letter and vagrancy—great causes for taking human life. That class of white men who are not liberal enought to concede to the Negro fair play are laggards in American life and civilization who have outlived their day and generation. They should be excommunicated, not allowed a Christian burial. But that class of human beings who will take the lives of innocent men less seriously because of their color than less men, lower than brutes; they are leeches in American life, and have by their own voluntary act cast themselves outside the pale of civilization, an doubt to be cast into the lake that burneth with fire and briststone from which there is no recovery. While thinking of these victims of the mob, we pause to shear a tear.
Unhappy men swept into eternity in the most horrible manner. No mother, sister, brother, father or wife were allowed to soothe their sorrow, alleviate their pains, or close their eyes in death.
The Cause
Let us analyze the condition and locate if possible the breeding pen of this mobocratic spirit.
It must be a hot bed of moral deprivacy, libertinism and prejudice. For in such a soil we find the tramp, hobo, bumb, bumble, bank robber, burglar, dynamiter, imbezler, tax dodger, necardian and assassin. These men find a congenial home in the grog shop, around the card table, in the gambling hall, in houses of prostitution and other places of low and questionable character.
These places create an atmosphere for the existence of hooting, jeering, demoralizing, rabble capable of committing the most brutal, atrocious and behoused crimes. Here is is located the motive power that operates the most advantage and spread of Christian civilization. Numbers of the courts of justice and produces perpetual disturbance and terror in society; holding in contempt the life of mankind. Let us remove these institutions from society and we will have destroyed to a large degree the breeding pen of the mob crowd.
This class of men, having lost all respect for themselves and having descended to the lowest depths of moral degradation, lose their interest in the well-being of society, and lose a career of ravage and plunder.
They are not only the black man's most dreaded enemy, but they a rea menace to that class of whites who believe in and are endeavoring to live up to the golden rule. They are material factors in promoting strikes and interfering with the government in its effort to promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of life, liberty and the pursuits of happiness alike to all of its citizens. Like a great storm whose black cloud forms on the horizon, and whose muttering thunders are heard in the distance, when the mob imagines a violent cause for actin' breaks forth in the face of a stormup with violent spreading terror and excitement throughout the entire community, for when that vicious spirit is once aroused, like alcohol, it creates an appetite for itself, and for months all classes of colored citizens are kept in a state of continual excitement and dread.
The Victims.
Let us consider for a moment the class of men who are usually the victims of the mob. As a rule they are not found among those who think life the happiest gift of God and that the human body is the best of nature's handiworks. They are not advocates of high moral ideas, are not church communicants, don't attend Sunday school, have no respect for the preaching of the gospel. In fact, they are in a great measure products of the same soil that produces the mob- idle, vicious and sensual, their very brain is the devil's workshop. They create an incentive which inspires the mob in its desire of destruction of life. With this encouragement the mob wreaks its vengeance upon the innocent and guilty alike, not even the deceptive and helpless are able to escape its wrath.
While it is true that the Negroes of this character fail to some extent to live up to their obligations and privileges, we must not lose sight of the fact that he is an American citizen and should be treated according to law. There is no cause real or inimaginary, for the mob venting its spleen upon the poor, helpless Negro. Even if he is guilty of the commission of the crime, he should be allowed the same treatment accorded members of the other races under similar conditions. The government he serves so faithfully, seems so concerned about other matters that it overlooks the wanton killing of helpless Negroes, and falls to come to their aid when in imminent danger and distress. This neglect of the government to come to his rescue in these showy cases constitutes one of the darkest and most shameful pages in American history, being conclusive evidence of the basest incarattitude.

Chicago, Ill., Monday, June 3, 1918.
After a lingering illness covering a period of several years, Mrs. Amanda Drake, formerly of Nashville, Tenn., died in this city today. The remains will be shipped to Nashville for interment, as she was a member of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church of which Dr. C. H. Clark is pastor in that city and was a member of the Galeda Class. Mrs. Drake had been at Hot Springs in search of health, but the best medical skill that could be obtained failed to bring results.
ECHOES OF RHODOA COLLEGE,
514 10th Ave. S.
Busy days with Madam Rhoda and her forge. While her beauty culture school is a new one, it is doing great work. Many young women are enjoying the blessings of knowing real beauty culture.
Mr. Chas, T. Rhoda and Madam mooted to Kingston, Tenn., enjoying a pleasant visit with relatives and family, Mrs Mattie A. Greer and family.
Mrs. Minnie Lee Abernathy of Sth avenue, N., is one of the many successful students who expects to open business of her own in the near future.
Prophet Andrew Jones of Philadelphia, a widely known Baptist minister, writes Madam Bessie T. P. Rhoda. He is called a prophet because he has foretold so many things, the Johnstown flood, St. Louis cyclone, Boston earthquake and world war over twenty years ago, writes a more intimate letter, stature that he will be a terrible famine in two years. Man and beast will be dying up from hunger and the war will last till 1931-for thirteen years. In 1915 Madam Rhoda heard him predict the world war and at that time he said it would last for sixteen years. The letter came from Newark, N. J., where the prophet has been preaching warning people and his race. Mrs. E. Whi(taker, 1047 1st avenue, Newark, N.J.) is a respected assistant instructor of Rhoda College. She cheerfully fills the position and is very busy with colored and white customers.
BUSINESS LEAGUE BOOSTERS
By: Albert L. Holsey.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Dr. Washington's last Sunday evening's talk to the students was on "Team Work." No one could appreciate the importance of "Team Work" more than Dr. Washington. It was the "Team Work" of the Trustees, the faculty, the students and friends of Tuskegee Institute which made it the National Institution that it was "working" among the officials and the loyal, progressive men and women of the country, made the National Negro Business League one of the most important organizations in the country, and "team work" in America is helping the Allies to win the war.
What the Negro is learning from the war is "team work" in a new and broader way. Our people are working together as never before in Thrift Stamps, the Army and Red Cross Campaigns, and the results are in some instances astonishing.
The important thing about the "team work" in the various campaigns is its educational value. If we can keep that spirit alive after the war, it can be converted into a powerful factor encouraging industrial and economic efficiency. Our business men can harness the spirit which has made this "team work" possible, and can develop it into a most valuable asset. If we can get together for the Red Cross now, after the war, we can get behind local campaigns to boost Negro business enterprises. Such co-operation could produce results which would grow in force, in power and momentum. The National Negro business League has endeavored to foster that spirit among our people during the years of its existence and it has succeeded to a most gratifying degree.
If you find it absolutely impossible to attend the Congress, or to have your Sunday School represented by a messenger, then do the next best thing—fill out the Congress Enrollment Blank, and mail it to the Congress Secretary, Henry Allen Boyd Nashville, Tenn.

MEHARRY NEWS
An earnest class of young men, recent graduates of Meharry, class of 1918, may be seen on the campus or in the class rooms engaged in study, preparing for the State Medical Board of Examiners. Two or three of this group took the Kentucky Board of Medical Examiners at Louisville this week. The men express themselves as hopeful of having made the required grade for passing the board.

Dr. J. A. McMillan accompanied Dr. T. H. Elliott to the Mayo Hospital at Rochester, Minn., where Dr. Elliott will undergo an operation. Dr. Elliott is an honored member of the faculty and has occupied the chair of Chemistry for years with credit to himself and great satisfaction to the authorities at the institution. May the operation prove highly successful and completely restore the good Doctor to his family, faculty and friends, that he may return to his post of honor and trust a well man. Plans are under way to enable Meharry to more effectually help in the clinical work of this city next year. Our good president is leaving noth undone to advance the interest of the school.
Miss Annie V. Holman, daughter of Dr. J. H. Holman of Meharry faculty, is now at the tuberculosis hospital. It will be remembered that. Miss Holman served as teacher of music at the colored department of the School for the Blind in this city. Because of ill health she resigned her position and it was discovered that she was infected with this dreadful germ. A regular meeting of the Medical, Dental and Pharmacists of this complete arrangements were made for attendance upon the Volunteer Medical Association to be held at Clarksville June 20th and 21st. A splendid program has been arranged and the local profession at Clarksville has made elaborate preparations for entertainment. A large
and enthusiastic delegation will go from here.
All the laboratories on the campus have been overhaul, many repairs made and smoo new apparatus installed. New paint is being spread upon the buildings and this gives a bright appearance to the entire campus. The halls which resounded with glad voices a few days ago are now as quiet and still as a proverbal church graveyard. The student-body is scattered to the four corners of this country. Reports come which say they have all secured work.
Dr. F. A. Stewart, of the faculty, has just returned from a month's stay in Arkansas. The Doctor was the guest of the Arkansas State Medical College, which met at Hot Springs, Ark, in May. He spent most of his stay in Hot Springs and gives a glowing account of the good work our men are doing at the famous health resort. Rockie Bluff. Dr. Stewart secured more than $200 for the Mehary Endowment on his trip. He was delighted to witness the good work of the men who years ago sat at his feet as pupils and now they are the foremost men in their communities. Dr. Stewart has a credit of more than a quarter of a century of good service rendered at Mehary and in term of service is the oldest man on the Mehary faculty except Dr. Hubbard. He has taught nearly all of the present faculty and has held in higher education. We all defend honor him for his ripe scholarship, punishings and accuracy in all things.

Jordan whose home was in Atlanta, Ga., joined the regular army when quite young and has been in the service for a number of years. He has been stationed at various forts throughout the country and saw active service on the Mexican border. During the clash between the forces of Villa and Caranza, which occurred so near the border, as to give the United States authorities some uneasiness that the battle might cross the line, he was a member of the patrol, sent to see to it that the fighting was stayed in Mexico. Invading of his experience that the occauses was the first time he had the opportunity of seeing machine guns used in regular battle. These guns were mounted in commanding positions and Sergt. Jordan states that as the men of the other side attempted to rush these positions the guns mowed them down just as wheat falls before the blade of the scythe. So peculiar was the effect of this scene on some of the men in the border patrol that they laughed them-

Mr. Gooch Says Lung-Vita Cured Him of Lung Trouble
Mad About Reached the Conclusion That it Was Useless to Buy More Medicine
"I had had lung trouble for about five years and had had doctors and taken their medicine, and had also tried all kinds of remedies that I thought would help me," says Mr. Walter Gooch of 51 Wharf avenue, Nashville, Tenn.
"Nothing I took did me much good as I could see. My cough was very bad and I was having pains in my chest and sides and was also having night sweats which were annoying me greatly. I had about come to the conference. It was useless for me to spend any money for medicine. However, I noticed that lung-Vita was recommended highly for lung trouble, and finally decided to take one more medicine. I bought an have taken four bottles of Lung-Vita and can say I am entirely well and back at work again and doing as much work as I had done before I had this trouble. I never saw such a medicine as Lung-Vita in my life and advise everyone having lung trouble to give it a trial."
Lung-Vita is sold by druggists and dealers. (Adv.)

Baltimore is jubilant over the outcome, as it is said that this is not only the largest rally ever pulled off by any single church in the connection, and will lift Baltimore out of any future embarrassment.

NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY JUNE 7. 1918
On last Tuesday evening the death angel visited the primary department of our Sunday school and took from us one of our precious jewels in the person of little Leola White, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Emanuel White. This child had been ill about two years. She bore her illness with patience. She was a faithful little girl, always ready to say something about her Maker. We should strive to emulate her character and the faith she had in God. The Missionary Society live in her family a beautiful design as a token of appreciation for faithfulness during her short life. One writer has said it is not the service we render that counts in the end.
The Trustees have laid plans for a great rally in June, asking each member to do their bit. The ladies boards are getting ready to pull off the Slabtown District Convention in behalf of the rally. We trust that each member will be aroused to the sense of doing their duty and their bit by paying their assessment. You are missing some good and practical sermons from our pastor, Rev. S. J Howard. Sunday is Children's Day and we also quarterly meeting day. Let us all be present and pull together to make all these meetings and the rally a success.

TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH
NOTES
The May Festival at the Tabernacle Baptist Church was a decided success. Each of the four nights had a splendid attendance. The committee on arrangements are to be complimented on the rare treat they had in store each night for the visitors. The children made quite a hit on their night. The musical under the direction of the pastor, Rev. H. M. Burns was excellent and highly enjoyed. The young women's drill was carried out as scheduled with quite a soldierly bearing. The feast of the wilderness was great. The ladies in their different booths were displaying needlework of various kinds that were done by members of the auxiliary. Several pieces of embroidery and one silk quilt showed great skill as well as patience. Quite a neat sum was realized from this sale.
Sunday at 11 a. m., Rev. H. M. Burns preached, the service was well attended. Sunday afternoon at the Communion service, Rev. J. W. Terry preached, subject of discourse, "Shall we know each other in heaven." At 8:30 p. m., Rev. H. M. Burns preached a short but very instructive sermon. We are glad to report Deacon Henry Monday night at the May Festival is improving. It was quite a pleasure to see one of our members, Mrs Jennie Andrews who is making her home in Indianapolis in the audience
hope she will make a lengthy stay in the city.
The Woman's Missionary Baptist City Union will on the second Sunday June 9th, hold their annual Tag Day at the Tabernacle Baptist Church, Rev. H. M. Burns, pastor. The programme will be furnished by musical and literary talent from the different churches of the city. We will also have with us some of our ablest divines and other noted speakers, who will assist in making the exercises instructive as well as entertaining.
We are hoping the churches will make this effort a successful one by coming out in full force. Each president, local auxiliary and officer of the city union are expected to be present. The public is tendered a hearty and wel come invitation.

THE PARTY OF OPPOSITION.
Everything points to acceptance by the republican party of its logical place as a patriotic party of opposition. That is to say, all the utterances of the party's present leaders indicate their complete comprehension of the fact that the best service to itself and to the nation that the republican party can render is to vie with the democratic party as a group committed to the winning war.
The republican state convention of Indiana adopted a platform declaring that the party stand for "peace" with victory and never peace by a compromise, bargaining of principles which would violate American's rights, interests and honor and make our sacrilege to be made again by our grandchildren. The resolutions were written by a committee of which Will H. Hays, chairman of the national republican committee, was chairman.
Ex-Presidents Roosevelt and Taft and Mr. Hughes are notoriously advocates of war to victory no matter what the cost. Col. Roosevelt in a Memorial Day address at Detroit declared: "America does not want to win this war on points; we want a knockout."
Republican leaders of Nebraska at a conference held in Lincoln gave manifestations of great enthusiasm for a "win the war" slogan, cheered Col. Roosevelt voicerously, and confined their criticism of the administration principally to "its slowness in getting into the war."
This is exactly as the Globe would have it. The United States has no room for two parties more concerned with making the world safe for themselves than for making it safe for democracy—nor for one such party, by the way. But there is actual need of two "win the war" parties. That is as clear in America as it is in England, where the liberal Westminster Gazette sums it up: "It is becoming evident that a regular opposition is as much a necessity in time of war as in time of peace. Without it we have no guaranty that the existing government will be efficient." On the contrary, we have a human certainty that it will be quite other than that.
With a powerful opposition calling for more vigor and better results in the war, the party in possession of the government dare not shaken but must endeavor to excel itself. If it succeeds in keeping pace with reasonable demands, the administration becomes fortified and the country is immeasurably the gainer. If it does not succeed, and if the war is a long one, even our American system of fixed party periods it can be replaced. Nineteen hundred and twenty is not too far to look forward and for the interest of the country it is desirable that the government look forward to that year soberly. Every other issue is submerged in the war issue. It is of more consequence that the war be won than that the radical domestic policies of President Wilson be speeded. And of vastly more importance than the old time conservation of republicanism be given an inning. That conservatism, indeed, may be considered to have ceased to be.
Win the War. That is the invitation of the republican party to the democratic party. Win it and you are unbeatable in national politics. Show now and every minute of every day that you are determined to win it, and you cannot be seriously disturbed by criticism. But slacken an instant and we shall point it out. Permit partisan meanness to interfere with the nation's prospects, and we shall make a note of it for the people. Fail to win it and we shall with justice and with confidence ask the voters to replace you.
If the interest of the republican party be considered, other things too are necessary—notably a liberalization of policy. But from the standpoint of a country that wants to win the rest is enough. A republican party which snorts defiance to the kaiser and calls for unremitting and tremendous efforts by America to eradicate him is exactly what the government needs in order to make of its war administration a success.
A RAINBOW OF PROMISE.
There be those, even in America, who scout the hope of a world where peace shall reign. In their confidence that the world must always be ruled by war they assume our failure in the present war, one of whose aims is a law-governed world. Such sceptics should give heed to Sunday's chief event in the city of Chicago. When Ex-President Roosevelt makes peace with Ex-President Taft, who can say there are limits to the possibilities of peace? The spectacle of these two, the former "Theodore" and "Will" averting their faces as they passed by has been for six years a challenge to human faith in peace. Probably not since Hamilton and Jefferson fought each other a hundred odd years ago have two American states men of such eminence been as far apart as have the two ex-presidents who defeated each other at the polls in 1912. Now they have made peace surely peace can reign everywhere.
Perhaps the famous philosophy of the polihi might also be applied to American and his coal supply. If he doesn't get it now he will have two alternatives. Either he will get it later on or he won't get it at all. If he gets it later there will be no need to worry. If he doesn't get it at all he will face two alternatives. Either he will freeze to death or he won't. If he doesn't freeze to death there will be no need to worry. If he freezes to death he will face two alternatives. Either he will go to the one place or the other. If he goes to the one place, he will know only bliss, so there is no need to worry. If he goes to the other place he certainly will not need the coal.
The war department says Baker, propos of the order relegating Gen. Woods to command of an old ladies' home, is not in the habit of explaining its commands. No? But presumably the war department has no rooted objection to a command being self-explanatory.
Whether or no the partisan support which Hearst has given the administration explains his immunity from molestation under the lawsep law, it is at least interesting to note that at the mere suggestion of molestation his partisan support is redoubled.
Some mothers say their babies are the best in the world. Other mothers say their babies are no worse than the others. Cynical bachelor observes causically that both kinds of mothers are right.
A virtue may be overworked. A good deal of the trouble in this world is caused by people who go out of their way to tell, unnecessarily, the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
They are going to quit making olive drab of khaki suits for civilians. How tough that will be on young fellows whose style of beauty demands khaki.
A fool and his money soon part. From which it might be inferred that the man who does any unnecessary riding on the passenger trains under the new rates is a fool.
No doubt the strictly judicial and idealistic requires that we try but somehow it seems terribly difficult to get the cutworm's point of view.
It is indeed an awful hard matter to screw one's courage and pocket-book up to the point of buying next winter's coal now.
The president's hand was jarred off the riveting hammer before the job was done. Darn it, that's what we have been afraid of.
The allies are powerless to render any assistance to Russia for the reason that Russia is in no way capable of helping herself.
The advocates of drugless medicines are finding their best argument in the market.

WINCHESTER
Mr. Wesley Smith is very ill at this writing, also Mrs. Nettie Sylter. Both stand in need of an operation. We hope they will see Dr. Fraser. The Phyllis Wheatley D. S. Club met at the residence of Mrs. T. C. Carter, Wednesday, May 29th. Opened by Scripture reading by Mrs. Syler. Prayer by Mrs. Rutledge. Roll was called and responded by to quotations, using the word war. Miss Luella Moss was leader of the evening, who gracefully conducted the work. One new member in the person of Mrs. Vance was unanimously voted into the club. A large number of ladies were present which was very encouraging to the President. Business being finished, no pauses to serve a delicious meal of salad and cream. The club adjourned to meet at Mrs. Dartis', June 19th. Miss Gray and Miss T. F. Moss are appointed leaders. The closing exercises of the private school conducted by Mrs. A. C. Boddle were held at St. John A. M. E. Church, Monday evening, June 3rd. Promptly at 8:30 the exercises began and the audience was highly entertained by the 30 little children whose ages range from 5 to 11 years. The attendance was very large. The church being filled to its utmost capacity. The parents have asked that she teach the children again in the fall and she has gladly consented to do so. It was said by some of the speakers to be the best exercise that has ever been witnessed. The friend she shared their appreciation by donating liberally to her. Rew. W. H. Boddle of McMinnville and D. J. Tate of Tullahoma came over especially to attend the exercises. The pastor, Rev. C. C. Bright spoke very high of the program and Mr. Victor-Sylter in a very pleasant manner expressed the sentiment
of the parents, stating that she was the right person in the right place and that they wanted her to make Winchester her home. Mrs. Boddie was the right mother to her husband in McMinnville, where she hopes to take a much needed rest.
CALL MEETING.
The Executive Committee of the Colored Unit of the Women's Council of National Defense met their chairman in a call meeting Tuesday afternoon at the Fireside School. The meeting was presided over by Dr. M. H. Coleman, who has just returned from Chicago, where she had the day before, and gating the methods of which civic relief is handled in the Windy City.
The city had previously been outlined in sections and sectional chairmen appointed. The report of these chairmen was a very interesting feature of this meeting. Those reporting their districts well organized were: Dr. Josie Wells, South Nashville; Mrs. Morgan, East Nashville; Mrs. Lewis, North Nashville; Mrs. Roman, West Nashville, and Mrs. Flowers, Central Nashville. These chairmen were asked to select five other ladies to serve with them in the Baby Welfare Campaign and Allied Home Relief. Centers have been designated where the babies will be brought for examination and weighing. At an early date these ladies will be called to a meeting by Mrs. Kelley.
Mrs. Dawson. President of the Women's Federation of Clubs of the city, made a stirring appeal for assistance for those people in the city who have sons and relatives in the army and do not know where to obtain the information necessary to keep them well informed. Some of them, she stated, cannot write nor read and are therefore at the mercy of designing persons. She recited instances where she had been able to be of great help to two old women at very little expense of time to herself. The chairman appointed a committee to look into this matter and outline a plan for this work. The number of more colored nurses was brought up and a meeting called by the President of the City Federation for the purpose of outlining plans by which the clubs of the city will be able to pay the salary of two or more extra nurses during the summer.

ACHIEVEMENTS IN MUSIC
Hampton, Va.—Five hundred rich Negro voices singing with fine spirit, tone, and attack the eighth-part Baal choruses and interpreting for a large audience the leading numbers of Mendelsson's "Elijah" and Cowen's "Rose Malden," five-hundred singers assisted by solosists—Mr. Geoffrey O'Hara, Dr. J. T. Lattimore, Miss Bessie L. Drew, and Miss Clara D. H. Smith, who throw themselves wholeheartedly into the big numbers of "Elijah"—these are the impressions one carries away from the recent Hampton Institute spring concert, which was given with the effective and adequate accompaniments of Mrs. R. Nathaniel Dett.
UNIQUE CHORUSES.
This concert was given under the skilful direction of R. Nathaniel Dett, director of vocal music at Hampton Institute since 1913, who has been making distinct contributions to American art through his religious folk-song choruses.
"Weeping Mary" and "I'll Never Turn Back No More."—two new choruses—written in his characteristic style, have just been published by J. Fischer and Brother, Bible House, New York. These choruses are founded on Negro folk-song themes. They are four-part choruses for mixed voices, and they have been accomplished. These unique folk-choruses have already been thusastically received by prominent musicians and choir directors.
Other interesting choral productions of this composer-pianist include, to listen to the Lambes, "Mine," the Mine (with Mine, Mine), all published by G. Shirmer.

NASHVILLE, GLOBE. FRIDAY JUNE 7. 1918
RED CROSS NEWS
LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS
Authorized by Nashville Chapter Publicity
Through Mrs. Cora Jordan-White
The Publicity Department of the Nashville Chapter is desirous of complimenting the Nashville Globe on its editorial of May 31, relating to Red Cross and Liberty Loan subscriptions; unquestionably the element of free-will offering is what makes the Red Cross contribution vital. Education to many seems at one time a form of "co-ercion," and yet one realizes the value later of a forced education. Much of the withholding from free giving at the beginning of our Drive for Government and semi-Governmental organizations was a matter of not knowing what was really asked. The less of taxation, actual or supposititious, involved in giving to such work as the American Red Cross accomplishes, the happier the givers, the better for the real well-being of our enlisted men, their families and the Allies who are the recipients of Red Cross money and service. Mark the word; "recipients" not "Beneficiaries," we only give to them what is their due, in return for what they give for us who stay at home.
Will any reader of this column who has an item which he or she thinks would be of general interest to other readers, men and women, an item relating to the Red Cross work as seen in operation to the advantage of any one in Davidson County, Kindly write it and mail to Mrs. H. H. Corson, 1918 Church St., City.
The Civilian Relief Department through its Home Service Section is constantly engaged in helping the dependents of enlisted men to understand about their allotments and allowances and Government Insurance. Miss Carrington at headquarters is the one to communicate with. Mr. J. G. Crevelling is chairman of this department, one of the nine departments of Chapter Work.
The Army and the Red Cross Co-operate.
In order to protect from moths and damage in other forms during the summer months, Red Cross Sweaters and knitted articles furnished to the soldiers, an order has been issued by the Adjutant General of the Army addressed to all Commanding Generals and Department Commanders, instructing them to have an inventory taken at once of all articles of wearing apparel issued by the Red Cross and to require the Unit Supply Officers to take up on their return and account for these articles as though they were Government property regularly supplied by the Quartermaster's Corps. Furthermore, they are to exercise the same care in their use and preservation and are to turn them in to the Quartermaster for renovation at the end of the season or when no longer required, to be re-issued when needed.
This action on the part of the War Department will assure women the articles which they have made will receive the same careful attention as clothing or other articles furnished by the Government.
Women Should Save All Wool Rags.
The question "Why should we save wool?" is answered here. A fully equipped soldier uss 13 times as much wool as the civilian. With the 1916 consumption of wool as a basis, civilians use 8.17 pounds each per year. One reason for saving is the fact that there are less than 50,000,000 sheep in the United States when three tims as many should be raised. Women are therefor urged to send all wool-rags to the shoddy mills for re-manufacture.

| HAMPTON COMMENCEMENT
_ Hampton, Va.—The Rev. James
‘Edgar Gregg, principal of Hampton
Tnstitute and successor to the late Dr.
Hollis B. Frissell, before presenting
diplomas to the 76 members (33
boys, 43 girls) of the graduating
class, spoke on “The Soldierly
Spirit.” Mr. Gregg said:
“The soldierly spirit means super-
‘iofity to the mercenary motive; it is
‘the spirit of loyalty, not only to
country but to the great cause and
high {deals for which one’s country
‘stands; it implies some of the virtues
that are often lost sight of in our
modern life—obedience, _ patience,
self-control; and tt is the spirit. of
viewing life, not as a problem, but
as an adventure, Armstroni” and
Frissell thought of their work, not
as a vast and diffieult problem, but as
& glorious, wondrous adventure. in
whieh they were glad to engage.”
BISHOP GEORGE W. CLINTON
SPEAKS
Bishop George W. Clinton of Char-
lotte, N. C., spoke on “The Influence
of Thought on Character.” He select-
ed these texts: “For as he thinketh
within himself, so is he,” and ‘“What-
soever things are true, whatsoever
things are honorable, whatsoever
things are just, whatsoever things
are pure, whatsoever things are love-
ly, whatsoever things are of good
report; if there be any virtue, and if
there be any praise, think on these
things.”
WAR LESSONS.
Bishop Clinton, referring to the
Great War, said;
“Brror and false teachings abound
in our time. There are errors of
doctrine and opinion. ‘There are
false views as to the rights and priv-
ileges of men, especially when they
happen not to be of our own kind;
when they do not see as we see;
think as we think; and do as we do
or would have- them do.”
“We should search for truth until
we find it, and finding it we should
think upon it, We should live the
truth.”
TRIBUTE TO DR. PHENIX.
Mr. Gregg, in opening the com-
mencement program, paid a warm
tribute to Dr. George P. Phenix,
Hampton's Vice Principal since 1908,
He said:
“This is my first commencement
day as principal of Hampton. Instt-
tute. I wish at this time to express
publicly my own great obligation
and the gratitude of the Institute to
Dr. George P. Phenfx, Vice Principfil
of-the school, under whose guidance
