VOLUME XIII.
ACT OF S. C.
M. DECLAR-
ED VOID.
WAR EMERGENCY USED AS A TRUE PROTEST
Under the rules and regulations of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America, the B. M. C. is the highest authority in the Order, and in it alone is lodged the power and authority to legislate for all branches of the Order. Its functions and authority cannot be questioned or impaired by any other authority. The Order is the inherent right to meet and legislate every branch of the Order—to adjourn and fix the time and place of its own meetings; and there, is no authority in the Order that can change its mandates. It is the Creator and every other branch of the Order its creatures, and the Sub Committee of Management—a creature of the M.C.—has no power or authority to change or, in any way, impair any act of its creator Therefore.
1. The act of the S. C. M. in January, 1918, attempting to change the meeting of the B. M. C. from the second Monday in September, 1918, to the second Monday in September, 1920, is void, for the reason that it is arbitrary, without authority and against the General Laws of the Order.
2. The power to fix the time and place of meetings of the B. M. C. is lodged alone in the B. M. C. It itself under the General Law, and no other branch or individual member of the Order can change the General Law except by a proposition to the B. M. C.
3. The act of the Sub-Committee of Management is revolutionary and destructive of the just ends of the Odd Fellow government and strikes at the very life of the Order.
4. the B. M. C. does not meet at the time when the 15th B. M. C. fixed for it, meet the B. M. C. can never legally meet any more, for the reason that its power lodged in the B. M. C. to fix its own meeting and to select its own place and time is not a delegative authority; it is inherent; and if the Order neglects to carry out its constitutional authority, its authority will cease and there will be no authority to convene a B. M. C.
5. If the Sub-Committee of Management is permitted to infringe upon the rights and authority of the other branches of the Order, to change the mandates of its creator and pose its meetings from one year to another thereby lengthening its own office without the consent of the people. It may be required to do so from year to year and the people may never have the opportunity to meet again in a B. M. C. to legislate or select officers for themselves.
6. If the Sub-Committee, the executive branch of the Order, sets the precedent of postponing the meetings of the B. M. C., what will prevent the executive committees of the Dispatched Grand Loiges from postponing the Grand Lodge sessions from year to year and perpetuating themselves in office and creating new opportunities for graft and greed?
7. Following this German propaganda to the last analysis, taking the executive branch of the Order as a precedent, what would prevent the officers of the subordinate lodges of the Order from perpetually postponing meetings from time to time as would best suit their whims, notions and selfishness to the utter destruction of the will of the lodges which pay the taxes and bear the burdens of the Order. The act of the Sub-Committee of Management, postponing the loth B. M. C. to 1520, is not binding upon any subordinate branch or the Order, and it is the duty of every subordinate branch to disregard the arbitrary and void action of the S. C. M., and elect delegates and send them to New York at the proper time, hold the B. M. C. and elect a set of officers who will obey the will of the people, serve their interest and not usurp the powers of representative government. The Order of Odd Fellows is republican in form of government. Its rules and regulations are enacted by the people, chosen by the people. The officers are not masters—creatures, and not creators; and when the servant he comes greater than the master it is time to discharge the servant.
The act of the Sub-Committee is born of the desire to die in office. It is nothing more than a desperate effort to perpetuate itself in office at the expense of the people and denying at the same time the right of the people to review their conduct. So let the subordinate branches throughout the country elect delegates and file credentials with the Grand Secretary as usual and have them in New York on the second Monday in September, and hold the B. M. C. according to the rules and regulations of the Order. If the Sub-Committee is there, or course the Master will preside, if it is not there, the chosen representative of the Gold Pellows in America will proceed to all officers as are necessary to transact the business of the people. Then elect a set of officers who will carry out the will of the people instead of promoting their own selfish ends and greed.
NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY---THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE.
A BEAUTIFUL WED-
DING IN CHICAGO
Chicago, Ill., June 24, 1918—One of the most beautiful and attractive weddings of the season was that of Miss Lena Bernetta White of Chicago, Ill., and Dr. George W. Pugh, of Mobile, Ala., which took place Wednesday evening, June 19, 1918, at the home of the bride, 870 Franklin street, Chicago. Mrs. Johnnie Howell, sister of the bride, was matron of honor; Mr. Charlie Carey, best man; bride, flower girl and Mr. Robt Redmond, cupid. The wedding marched was played by Mrs. Laura Edmonson Miller, cousin to the bride. The bride was very beautiful and girlish ni her gown of white satin and brocaded georgette crepe. Her vell was caught up by a wreath of orange blossoms. Her only ornament was a string of pearls. The matron of honor wore a gown of chiffon and lace over pink skirt. The little flower girl wore a white dress of white lace and pink satin. The bride was led to the altar by her father, Mr. E. C. Oral.
Preceding the ceremony "Oh Promise Me" was very sweetly sung by Mrs. Lottie Hamilton. Mrs. Pugh is a Nashville girl, having graduated from Pearl High School in 1916, but since that time has resided in Chicago with her parents, Dr. Pugh is also well and favorably known in Nashville, having spent four years in the Medford, Medford, finishing in the class of 1917. Immediately after the ceremony Dr. and Mrs. Pugh left for Richmond, Ky., where Dr. Pugh is enjoying a splendid practice. A reception followed the ceremony. Many useful and handsome presents were received
MR. A. S. BUCKER HURT IN ACCIDENT
Friends of Mr. A. S. Rucker, the grocer of 14th Avenue, North, are in great sympathy with him, because of the recent accidental injuries sustained by him at the corner of 16th Avenue, North and Jefferson Street, when a car driven by a young man of this city skidded on the wet street and crashed into Mr. Rucker's wagon. Eye witnesses state that the car which was going at a fast rate of speed was under perfect control, till the corner of the street was reached at which time it skidded and in spite of all the driver could do crashed into the wagon badly breaking it up. He was then explaining the accident the driver of the car stated that he accounts for the accident by the fact that one of the front wheels of the car was a lilt out of line giving the car a tendency to skid.
Mr. Rucker is well and favorably known all over the city having for a number of years conducted a high class grocery business on 14th Ave. N. For the past several weeks he has been in poor health and his friends are worried over the effect of this recent shock to his already frail constitution. It is hoped that he will have a speedy recovery.
PICNIC AT NATIONAL THEOLOGICAL AND TRAINING SCHOOL
The number of the Ladies Auxiliaries of the Foster Chapel and Mt. Olive Baptist Churches will give a picnic on the grounds of the National Baptist Theological and Training School Thursday, July 4th. The picnic will be given for the purpose of raising funds for the school an interesting short program will be rendered. The public is cordially invited to take their outing on this day. Refreshments will be served on the grounds and a chance will be had to inspect the buildings.
MR. ARTHUR E. JORDAN DEAD.
Worcester, Mass., June 27, 1918.—Mr. Arthur E. Jordan passed away June 10th in Chicago, Ill., after a long illness. Mr. Jordan formerly lived in Everett, Mass., where he was active in politics. He was a member of Common Council for a number of years, the only colored man even holding such an office in the city government. He was forty-one years old and leaves a wife, relatives and friends in both Boston and Chicago. His wife was Miss Minnie L. Flasher, formerly of Nashville, Tenn.
The law provides that the B. M. C. shall be constituted of representatives elected by the subordinate lodges and that a man shall be deemed present if as many delegates are in attendance as attended the first general meeting of the Order in America, which were six in number. If six delegates, duly chosen from six subordinate lodges in America, appear in New York at 10 o'clock on the second Monday in September, 1918, organize the B. M. C. and elect a Sub-Committee of Management, the officers elected and the rules enacted will be the duly accredited officers of the Order in America and the rules will be those legally prevailing within the jurisdiction.
Away with kaiserism in America, whether it be in church, society or state. The American people believe in a democracy, in representive government, in a government in which all the people have a voice in the selection of their rulers. The war emergency which the Sub-Committee used as a pretext to postpone the meeting is simply a subterfuge, a rude to hide its ulterior motive, which is to perpetuate itself in office because it is afraid of the people. So let us assert our rights, and manfully and vigorously protest against the curpitation of our inalienable rights in the committee of Management, and call on all honest Odd Fellows and many men and women to join us in overthrowing despotism in the ranks of our fraternity.
Yours in F. L. and T.

NATIONAL BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY AND TRAINING SCHOOL OPENS ITS DOORS
Auspicious Beginning of Great School--Throngs of People Present Large Enrollment of Pupils--Excellent Work Outlined For Courses of Study--Money Pledged.
CONSTRUCTIVE WORK OF CONVENTION ASSURED
Culminating the efforts and desires of the Negro Baptists of America for the past generation, the National Baptist Theological Seminary and Training School of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated) opened its doors in a summer session Monday morning at 10:30 o'clock. An enthusiastic and representative audience gathered in the spacious chapel and listened to an interesting opening exercise. At the close of the exercises the guests inspected the building.
For at least one generation, since many of those who will attend the school were infants when the project was first mentioned, the Negro Baptists of the United States have been attempting to own a Training School for the religious education of Negro men and women along lines purely Baptistic. This effort was under the direction of the National Baptist Convention. However, the plans laid for the opening of a school, at some point, were to be completed and it was left to that division of Baptists known as the unincorporated convention of which Dr. E. P. Jones is president, to select a site and pay the first installment on a piece of property that is eminently fitted as a place where Negro men and women may receive that training so very necessary, if they are to intelligently spread the gospel.
The exercises of the morning were opened by singing with Mrs. J. L. Harding at the organ. The Scripture lesson was read by Dr. Clark, master of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church and chairman of the National Baptist Publishing Board. A fervent preacher was offered by Rev. G. B. Taylor, pastor of the Second Baptist Church and a member of the National Baptist Publishing Board. At the conclusion of the prayer the audience jolted in singing "Leaning on the everlasting arm. Dr. C. J. Clark was Impaled by Dr. C. J. Clark of the Pleasant Green Baptist Church and a member of the National Baptist Publishing Board, who as Dean of the institution acted as master of ceremonies. Dr. Clark spoke interestingly of the work of the committee in charge of the work and stated that the fact that they were that morning seated in the buildings, for the purpose for which they had come, placed him in the same predicament that the Irishman was who came to

America years ago. Continuing, he said: "Two Irishmen came to America and started out to see the sights. They had not gone very far before one of them disappeared from view in a distern. The other Irishman, greatly alarmed, rushed to his rescue with these words: 'Faith, and Pat, be ye dead' Pat responded: 'No, Mike, I be not d ad but speechless.'" Following up this point he related many happenings that had

occurred in the transaction which gave to the Nero Baptists of the country this handsome piece of property and concluded his remarks by encouraging them to stand up like men and see that the institution had a great future.
At this point Dr. R. H. Boyd, founder and secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated), and the man whose energy and foresight were the cause of the Baptists having this valuable piece of property offered them within twenty-four hours after it was placed in the market for sale, was introduced by Dean return trip, they stopped in Washington-thusianic congregation.

DR. O. H. BASSETT OF ALEXANDRIA.
Among the Mearhary dental graduates making a splendid record in his profession is Dr. O. H. Bassett, now located at Alexandra, La. Nashville people who were in Alexandra attending the Sunday School Congress bring back the information of his enviable record and ever increasing popularity. The Calle Beasley-Napier of this city and it is said their home, a palatial one, was thrown open to the delegates and the Nashville people.
Fields. As Dr. Boyd came from his seat in the audience he was given an ovation. In beginning his discourse, Dr. Boyd stated that he was going to preach a little sermon and would take for his text "Grow in Grace." During his discourse he illustrated his points from the botanical world, saying that plants grow from the inside and if the Negro Baptists were ever to amount to anything, they must grow from within and not depend on outside help, as outside help would always make them subservient to the source from which the help came.
Intense silence prevailed in the room as he told step by step of the plans that finally ended in the Baptists securing the school property and had its final grand climax in the exercises of the morning. He then told of the adverse criticisms that had made some of the brethren think the task too great, and ended by telling them that he had just concluded a conference with two gentlemen representing other denominations who would take the property off their hands at any moment they were ready, either by rent, lease or sale. As his moment gave way, those their best deceived that the Negro Baptists would never stand for putting their hands to the plow and looking back. One eminent pastor stated that he would be willing to devote all his salary to the project before such a step should be taken. Dr. Boyd concluded his speech by outlining plans for the scholastic year, frankly stating that his plans were simply suggestions, as he was not a member of any of the committees. Before he sat down he told of a trifling damage the storm had done to one of the buildings and in less than five minutes the brethren had subscribed the amount neces sary to repair the damage. Those he had subscribed to Dr. C. Hosek; $5; Dr. J. C. Fields; $5; Rev. Alex ander; $2.50; Rev. Alexander; $2; Rev. H. M. Burns; $2.50; Rev. J. Tunstall; $2.50; Dr. J. A. Lester; $1; Rev. Terry; $1.
A short talk was made by Dr. J. A. Lester, who stated that if the Basties were not going to use the property at once, Meharry Medical College might be able to use the same as an army hospital. Several other prominent gentlemen spoke and pledged their support.

PEOPLE OF U.S.A
Tuskegue, Ala., June 27.—The Government of the United States has set apart Friday, the 28th day of June, "War Savings Stamp Day." This is an opportunity for every Negro man, woman and aid child to do his part in helping to win the great war along with the soldiers at the front. It is a call for all of us to serve our country by lending our money to the government to be used for whatever is needed in winning the war.
We are called upon to invest our savings with the government which a promise not only of their return, but with a security and an added interest such as no bank can give. We are 'not asked to give our money to the government, but we are asked to take our ilele money whifa we have laid aside and put it to work at winning the war in which not only our money but everything else that we hold dear is at stake.
This War Saving Day is also a call to save more money than we have been saving up to this time. To win the war it will be necessary for all Americans, black and white alike, to deny ourselves of many things which we have been enjoying. We must live as cheaply as we possibly can without injury to our health and efficiency, and whatever is saved in this way we are asked to invest in Savings Stamps and Baby Bonds for winning the war. Our people spend a great deal of money for articles of food and dress and for amusement that we can well afford to do with our time, now to give up, these unnecessary things to our own help our country, but help ourselves well. By this means we will teach ourselves and our children habits of thrift, and at the same time show a practical loyalty to our country which is the duty of every citizen in the land.
Wages are everywhere higher than they have been before. This means that all of us will have some money which we can save. Parents can do nothing better for their children than to teach them to buy War Savings Stamps with as much enthusiasm and regularity as they buy toys and candy or go to the moving pictures, Pastors, teachers and community leaders generally will do a great service to their country by organizing our people for investing in Savings Stamps and Baby Bonds in a regular and systematic way. Every week should see the Investment of a sum of money, large or small, by every man, woman and child among us.
THE WAR CHAP-
LAIN SITUATION.
The United States Army numbers over 2,000,000 men.
Our new law provides 1,006 Protestant chalukhs for them.
testant chaplains for them.
All chaplains figures on this sheet refer to Protestants.
The standing army has its quota of permanent chaplains-95 Protestants.
42 of these have been appointed since the war, on our approval. Other chaplains, with the regular army will serve for the war only. 971 will serve for the period of the war in all branches of the army.
114 of these were in the National Guard before it was federalized, leaving 857 for us to secure, and we have secured them.
313 of these have been appointed. 100 more are at the Training School. Most of the others have been ordered to take the physical examination.
160 additional candidates are needed the first day of each month. And every man of them must be a topnotcher. The facilities at the Training School have been enlarged to accommodate 160 Protestant men each session, besides Catholics. Nearly all of these will be candidates. There are over 700,000 soldiers now in France. They should have 373 Protestant chaplains. There are possibly 150 abroad. We have offered 100 exceptional men to go without training at the school. 50 of these will be used in this country for a time at important places. Probably 50 more will go from the School early in July. That will leave the Ex-peditionary Forces still short.
Bishop Brent says: The church will be waiting in impress us as being men of the right type.
Navy candidates are going placed on a waiting list, and there are 6 are proved and accepted awaiting open lines now.

PLACED A BAN ON THE EXHIBITION OF THE "BIRTH OF A NATION" AND ALL SIMILAR PLAYS.
Charleston, W. Va., June 22—The Executive Council of Defense, Wednesday, placed a ban on the exhibition of "The Birth of a Nation" and all similar plays in this state during the period of the war.
The action of the state council came as a sequel to the passage of a resolution by the Mcbowell County Auxiliary Council of Defense promoting against the showing of "The Birth of a Nation." The McDowell County Council, composed of colored citizens of that county and one of the units of the State Auxiliary Advisory Council, of which J. C. Gilman is secretary, set forth that the attraction is one "calculated to arouse hatred and prejudice between the white and Negro races of the state, and likely to hinder and retard the proper cooperation between the races in promoting the greatest efficiency in war work of all kinds."
The order of the Council is broad in its inhibition of plays or motion pictures written or staged in the spirit of "The Birth of a Nation," and is specific in making it unlawful and subject to penalties to show such a play or picture at any time prior to the termination of the present war. The order recites that the Negroes of West Virginia have been loyal and periodic and have been allied to all of the activities in the work of national defense; that the Auxiliary Advisory Council and the State Council of Defense have been working together in complete harmony, and that through and by the exhibition of "The Birth of a Nation" in this state results are likely to be produced which will materially prevent the two races from working toge her in harmony and from bringing about the best results in the several lines of war work. The law became immediate on the message of the order, and will protect the smaller towns in the mining sections where the picture is booked for exhibition, having made a tour of the larger cities. Managers of the houses affected and owners the picture are flooding the state house with letters and telegrams of protest, without avail.
Our men have responded to the draft with a promptness and enthusiasm of which we may be justly proud, but not all of us can join the army. The great majority of us must remain at home. It will be our part to support our men in the trenches with our money and with our labor in the same hearty and unselfish way in which they have offered their lives.

DEPT. OF LA-BOR TO BE IMPROVED.
Dr. G. E. Hayes Visited So. States in Interest of Race
GRATIFYING LABOR.RE SULTS NOW IN SIGHT.
Washington, D. C., June 24, 1918.—Dr. George E. Haynes, Director of Negro Economics of the Department of Labor, has just returned from an extended trip into several States where he met in conferences and interviews at different points ni each State a number of representative white and colored men and women, to discuss with them the plans of the Department for improving local labor conditions. The Director visited points in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee and Kentucky. He is also in correspondence with persons in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois for the purpose of similar visits to those States. The purpose of these first visits is to get the advice and solicit the help of persons of both races in each State in carrying out a cooperative program to take practical constructive steps for enlisting all in a campaign to mobilize Negro workers for more strenuous labor to win the war. Given consideration, of course, is given to improving the conditions of Negro workers along all industries and to encouraging all who labor. Briefly stated, the plan is to secure ni each location co-operating committees of white and colored citizens composed of the strongest men and women of both races to work out plans and methods or adjusting local labor problems, in the interest of both employers and employees.
When interviewed by a representative of the press, Dr. Haynes said: "In all parts of the country, now, representative white and colored people are feeling that this is the time to pool their efforts and pull together. In my work of previous years I have found in almost every locality some white and colored citizens who were responsive to a practical program of work to meet the needs of their community."
"The various betterment and civic organizations that the colored people have organized have shown such activity along many lines to improve local conditions and situations.
"On the basis of such experiences, the Department of Labor is building its plan for meeting local labor sites that are affecting the Negro and his employers in various parts of the country. Already, the Department is meeting with gratifying cooperation of both white and colored people in various counties, towns and cities.
"Just as in all the Nation's past wars, the Negro is ready to do his share of the fighting in the trenches and dying on the field of battle. No less zealous has he been in doing the work to raise food and make supplies for our Allies and our men at the front. The Negro workman needs to be told, in ways to make it clear, that his toil of all kinds is appreciated and of value in winning this war. He needs to have it made plain to him that victory in this war will bring relief to democracy to him. If this is done, Charles Knight's example in breaking the world's riveting record will be repeated in many other occupations.
"There are two kinds of people in our country at this time: Those who do and those who don't. We plan to enlist every Negro in the country in the ranks of those who do."

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 give a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated made that has stood the rest of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an ax pert earthing device, the supervision of an experienced restorers 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 thorough cleaner. Quinasoap lathers and fuffs and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unscaled by any other shampoo.
Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from his store. The price of the oil we will mail them to you. Write to Seeby Drug Co. 79 East 130th street New York City, for a sample at Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper.—Adv.
DR. DAVIS TALKS ON CLEAN LIV
ING TO MANY DIVERSE
AUDIENCES
Dr. Katherine B. Davis, director of the Women's Section of the Bureau of Social Hygiene, Law Enforcement Department of the Commission on Training Camp Activities, has been speaking in various parts of the country on the "clean-up" program of the Government and the general educational work conducted for both men and women along these lines.
"Although the subjects of my speeches are all on the social hygiene policy of the Government, it is necessary to adapt the speeches carefully to the different audiences," says Dr. Davis.
The given question by the Kansas City Women's Club, Dr. Davis spoke about the responsibility of the women of a city for its clean moral condition.
To 1,100 high school boys and girls she spoke quite differently, using as a text the points of the Patriotic League pledge, emphasizing the character and conduct part of it and the possibilities for young people's service in war time. To a mass meeting of women she spoke of the duty of informing themselves concerning social hygiene and the Government's policy in regard to the problem and particularly stressed woman's share in the

WOMEN COOKS TO HAVE OPPORTUNITIES IN THE ARMY SERVICE
It is the avowed policy of the Surgeon General's office of the Army Medical Department to release men as far as possible by employing women in the service in this country. It is now stated that women cooks can be accepted in base hospitals of cantonments upon the special recommendation of the commanding officer of a cantonment and the statement that he can procure trained women. No general recommendation has been made for the employment of women in such a capacity, and in stances are living quarters arranged for the accommodation of such employees. Because of the special mess, unlike any other branch of the Army, of the aviation camps, the assigning of trained women cooks here in the United States to such camps is now being considered.

"Service a la cart!" is the sign carried by the refreshment wagons now provided by the Girls' Friendly Society under the direction of the Girl's Division of the War Camp Community Service in Washington, D.C. for the benefit of girl war camp personnel departments near the Mall. Many of the clerks have only a half hour luncheon period, and in this time it is impossible to obtain luncheon in the overcrowded restaurants of the Capital and enjoy a rest. Nutritive luncheons at a nominal price are provided by the wagons, thus giving the clerks a chance to pass their noontime in the open air. Women from the different one team taking charge of equipping the refreshment wagons and another of the selling.
WAR-TIME RECREATION DRIVE
A war-time recreation drive has been started by the Woman's Committee of the Council of National Defense, in cooperation with the Children's Bureau. A conference of representatives of all the recreational organizations of the country was held at the headquarters of the Woman's Committee in Washington, D. C., on which the following war-time appeal to American women was adopted and signed: "To 11,000,000 Patriotic Women in the State Divisions of the Woman's Committee, Council of National Defense: "For the boys and girls of this country we appeal, through you, to all patriotic citizens to save the Nation's children from the war-time hazards of increased delinquency, overtaxed nerves, and weakened bodies, bringing them a chance in the summer to play and grow well and strong through play and recreation.
"Official reports of war-time conditions in Europe warn the United States that it is imperative that all the agencies promoting playgrounds, recreation centers, and leisure-time activities for boys and girls shall be given money and personal service enough to increase, instead of decreasing the number of young people benefited.
"You 11,000,000 women are asked, each person own community, to foster and promote wholesale leisure-time activities throughout July and August leading up to a patriotic play week—September 1 to 7.
"Suggested programs will be provided through State chairmen of the Child Welfare Committee by the Woman's Committee, Council of National Defense, Washington, D. C.
The Catholic Woman's War-Service Club, accommodating 50 young women, has been opened for war workers in Washington, D. C.

viously by the War Department on women relatives of men serving in the Army and Navy. Women relatives of men thus classified, who have been abroad and are now in the United States, will be prevented from returning to Europe by this ruling. Women under 25 are not given passports to go abroad in relief work. The Secretary of War states that he has written to Gen. Pershing on this subject, and that, if the general has any definite opinion concerning the wisdom of different regulations regarding the issuance of passports, he will be given officer honors. The Red Cross has sent to the division bureaues of personnel the following communication signed by Brig. Gen Graves, assistant to the Chief of Staff:
"1. Under no circumstances will the War Department approve the issuance of passpoys to go to Europe for the wives, mothers, sisters, or daughters of the following classes of persons: Officers or enlisted men of the United States military forces, male civilians employed with the Red Cross, Young Men's Christian Association, or other organizations of a similar nature, that may be in Europe; civilians employed in or attached to the American Expeditionary Forces.
"2. Any of the female relatives enumerated in paragraph 1, who have recently been to Europe, but are at present in the United States for any reason whatever, are now included in the restrictions imposed by paragraph 1.
"3. It is quite useless for any one belonging to the restricted classes, cited above, to request an exception in her case as no exception in her case will be made."
GIRLS WORKING IN WASHINGTON
TO BE SAFEGUARDED.
Because many thousand girls from all parts of the country, many of them from small towns and away from home for the first time, are now employed in the National Capital, a branch of the section on women and girls of the law enforcement division of the commission on training camp activities is to be established in Dashington, D. C., June 15. Field workers, who will look after young girls and work with delinquent and semidelinquent women, will be immediately put out on the city. The committee in charge will cooperate with all social agencies in the Capital, particularly those actively concerned with the welfare of young women, such as the Y. W. C. A., the War Camp Community Service and various welfare and housing committees.
"There is great need for work of this kind here in Washington at the present time, because of the great number of young girls who have come here alone to work, many of them girls who have never lived away from home before," said Mrs. Jane Deeer Rippin, director of the section and supervisor of protective work in all parts of the United States. "The large number of camps surrounding the city is another feature that makes Washington a strategic point for field work."

HOUSE TO HOUSE CANVASS
Nashville has been pretty well canvassed in recent days and in time past but never before in the cause of prayer. Realizing that there is need of more earnest prayer at this present crisis, the good women of Nashville have arranged a house to house canvass all over the city, asking people to pledge themselves to pray daily for our soldiers and sailors, our nation and conditions.
The colored women of the city are organized under Miss Ada F. Morgan, superintendent of the Fireside Schools. A meeting was held on Monday morning at the Fireside school at which representative women from the different denominations were present. It was decided to hold the meeting at St. John A. M. Church, Monday morning, at ten o'clock. Chairman for the district were as follows: for West Nashville, Mrs. I. R. Scott; North Nashville, Mrs. A. N. Johnson; East Nashville, Mrs. William Haynes; South Nashville, Mrs. G. L. Jackson.
All women are urged to attend the meeting on Monday morning. It will be one of inspiration and instructions will be given to those who are to take part in the canvass. Workers are wanted. Let every Christian woman who reads these lines consider it a personal invitation to take part in this great movement. Full information will be given at the meeting on Monday morning and the day for canvassing will be decided upon.

INDIAN SUNDAY SCHOOL CHILDREN SEND MONEY ABROAD FOR WAR BELIEF
Feeling a responsibility for the war-suffering children of Europe, Indian pupils in the mission Sunday school in Martins Ferry, Cal., earned money to send abroad for their relief, according to a report from the Rev. B. B. Conner, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Arcadia, Cal. The Indian children gather acorns and sold them to the farmers, who use acorns as feed for their stock. "Thirteen dollars was realized by this means," said Mr. Conner, "and the little Americans proudly felt their assistance given to the orphans in France."

Those who had gotten out of practice of laughing had to smile when the delegation marched in. The convention seems to be quite popular already. Invitations have come from neighboring churches. This convention will appear at St. Peter next Monday night, July the 1st. Don't forget the rally have your fare ready.

METHODIST CHILDREN TO SEND
AN AMERICAN MOTHER TO
FRANCE.
"Send an American mother to France," was the slogan of the May campaign undertaken by the children of the Methodist Episcopal Church. A sum of money was desired, sufficient to send and maintain an American worker for one year in the orphanage at Grenoble, France. This drive was under the supervision of the Woman's Home Mission Society. This active country was covered by this campaign, and the returns are as yet incomplete. The children were active in their efforts and a successful report is anticipated by the Woman's Home Missionary Society. People were asked to buy "koopons" from red, white and blue mileage books. The "koopons" each represented a certain sum of money to be devoted for the relief of the war orphans in France.

RUTH AND NAOMI.
"Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee; For whither thou goest I will go; thy people shall be my people, thy God my God." Ruth 1-16.
The story of Ruth and Naomi has come down to us from times remote. No one knows who wrote it. The probable date of the incidents related can only be approximated and not closely at that. But it is a story imperishable. It is imperishable not alone because of its beauty and simplicity and its merit as literature, not alone because it gives us a graphic picture of peaceful pastoral life singular in its clearness and fidelity, but it also is an example of love and loyalty containing an irreverible appeal to the human emotions. It would be some satisfaction could we know who was the author of this exquisit pastoral idyll. He was a story teller unequalled. His art is undoubted and unquestioned.
Naomi was a widow. With her husband and their two sons she had gone from Bethlehem in Judea, during a time of famine to reside in Moab, where there was plenty. In Moab as time passed misfortune overtook the sojourners. First the husband and father died, and following him the sons were taken leaving the mother bereft. She was consolled in her sorrow, however, by the widows of her sons. Ornah and Ruth, women of Moab whom the young men had married. In her grief her thoughts turned to her native land, and learning that plenty again prevailed there, she resolved to return to Bethlehem. Her daughters-in-law startled on the homeward journey with her, but Naomi urged them to return each to her mother's house taking with them her blessing. She reminded them that she could not hold out no promise to them having neither substance nor sons who could become their husbands. Ornah was persuaded by this reasoning and with tears and kisses
look leave of her mother-in-law,
ever, cleave unto her. She
all the older woman's en-
purpose and announced her irrev-
purpose in the immortal pledge
fidelity which was made her a tye
through all times. "For whether thou
goest I will go, she said" "and where
thou lodgest I will lodge; thy people
shall be my people and thy god my
God. Where thou diest I will die and
there will I be buried; the Lord do
so to me and more also, if aught but
death part thee and me.
Naomi was constrained by the vachness of her daughter-in-law, sesing that Ruth was "steadfastly minded" and she ceased her entreaties Thus it came about that Ruth the Moabless returned with Naomi to Bethlehem, where she was destined to fulfill a divine purpose. Through her union to Boaz she became the mother of Obed, from whom descended Jesse, the father of David, founder of Israel's royal house and numbered among the descendants was Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the World.
The women of the Bible stand out with sharpness of outline. And it is with reason that they do so, for it requires exceptional characteristics to win an endearing place in history. Naomi and Ruth are not the least of the Bible women. Humble though they were and simple the story of their lives. For they emphasize a truth and teach a lesson which we are still striving to learn, more than four thousand years after them. Naomi must have been an unusual woman to inspire in Ruth such love and devotion as she manifested. Ruth
it is to be remembered was not of her blood nor of her race. She was a Moabitess, a stranger to Naomi's country and religion. Ruth too, surely was exceptional. We are bound to believe that else Providence had not chosen her to be the mother of the line of Jesus.
So great was her love for the mother of her dead husband, that she chose to desert her own country, her own people her own gods in order that she cleave to the lonely woman whose heart yearned for the home land. In giving her love Ruth makes no reservation, no stipulation. She gave her whole heart. There are no ifs and buts in her declaration it will be noted. She was positive and affirmative, promising loyalty in life and in death and through all circumstances. Only a woman of rare and splendid qualities could inspire such devotion.
In choosing to cast her lot with her mother-in-law, Ruth burned all her bridges behind her, renouncing her people and her people's religion. In some of the comments of this story much emphasis has been placed upon Ruth's declaration, "Thy go shall be my god." but it is doubtful whether such emphasis is proper. It is not apparent that choice had special significances. That is, the choice of Noami's God to be her God, displacing the Moabite gods, was not the paramount consideration with Ruth, but rather was in secondary. Her governing motive, undoubtedly was her devotion to Naomi, which was sufficiently strong to make her desire to worship the same God that Naomi worshipped and from whom Naomi derived those graces which made her so appealing to her daughter-in-law.
Sometimes we allow pessimism and cynicism and discouragement to overcome us as we view the way things go in the world, but it is by no means certain that we should give away to despair. While many things are wrong which should be righted, there still is a lot of love among men. The story of Ruth and Naomi has endured because it is a faithful type of a common human experience. If the unwritten history of the centuries which have passed since it was recorded could be searched how many like instances would be discovered? Thousands, yes hundreds of thousands, in all probability. Do we not each one of us know of such instances of immeasurable and devotion? What noble mothers and devoted daughters what heroic fathers and loyal sons what friendships beautiful in their faith and simplicity, the world has had and still has, only will be revealed when in the providence of God all things shall be made known. The love that governed these two humble women of the old time comprehended all things and it was of the type that might well be governed not only in our relations close to us but to our fellowmen in general. Fidelity is a characteristic which all men admire. We all respect the man who will stand without hitching to use a homely phrase. Our warmest praise goes out to the man who stands like a rock for what he is and for what he believes, who is unswervingly loyal on all his relation ships, upon whom the wave of adventious circumstances beat unavailingly.
Never in the world history was there a time when fidelity to principle was so vital and so essential as it is today. It is a time when the moral of mankind seems to be weakening in the face of responsibilities more tremendous, duties more exacting, every day we live. If the world needs one thing today above all other things it is fidelity, love, devoted and unselfish service, the spirit that impelled Ruth to say, "Whither thou goest I will go; and where thou lodges I will lodge, thy people shall be my people and thy God my God." We have no reason to be pessimistic about the state of the world or the church, but it is undeniable that multipled thousands of people are adrift, without positive religious convictions or principles, and that many within the church are takewarm. To reacca such and to kindle in their hearts zeal and reviver for the work of Christ is one of the tasks which reads upon all Christians and churchmen.
Only a great soul is capable of great deeds. Immeasurable love, love which is able to surmount all that is inconsequential and nonessential in life, the love that endureth all things, can only come from a great heart. We all recognize that we are not made alike and that not all of us have equal capacity for loving. But love and largeness of heart are qualities which may be cultivated and stimulated to growth. There is something wrong with the man who is incapable of friendship and it is gratifying that these are indeed few men of this kind. But there are indeed few really great friendships in the world. friendships that will endure every vicissitude. Who of us has not had supposed friends, friends drop away from him in some current of life, unable to survive the strain of some experience calling for love and fidelity. Or for patience and forgiveness? If we had more of the spirit of Ruth who was able to forsake all to follow her whom she loved, we would suffer fewer disappointments in our relation with our fellows.
The fidelity of Ruth is a type of that loyalty which is essential to all those who would be true followers of Jesus

Christ. "Whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple" said the Master. "And all with Jesus meant everything." "If any man come to me, he said and hate not his father and his mother, and wife and children and brethren and sisters, yea and his own life also, he cannot by my disciple. That seems a hard requirement, but only as it is fulfilled do we become true disciples of the Master. If Ruth was able to give this type of devoted service in her human relation with Naomi her mother-lin-law, how much more able and willing should we be to give even more exalted loyalty and devotion to Jesus Christ the Redeemer of the world.

Washington, June 21.—Formal denial of reports circulated in this country, presumably by German agents, that Negro soldiers with the American expeditionary forces are being killed in dangerous danger work than the white troops was cabled to the War Department today by General Pershing. The message said the Negroes were in high spirits, and that their only complaint was that they were not given more active service. General Pershing said he could not "command too highly the spirit known and admired by the Negro troops who exhibit fine capacity for quick training and eagerness for the most dangerous work."—Tennessee and American.

CAMDEN
**CAMELBORO**
Children's Day at the C. M. E. Church is day that meaninglessly observed on that Sunday with one exception, it was the saddest that they recorded the death of Miss Dora Thaw, who was here on last Children's Day at her post of duty. She was the finest example of the self-made young women we have ever known. She professed a hope in Christ when quite young, being a member of the Baptist Church of this place. She was an ardent lover of her Sunday school and was greatly admired by all who knew her. We feel safe to school she when she breaks up and Sabbath hath no end. A special program was rendered by the school, also a sermon to the children by the pastor. The school marched in at the proper time. Song led by Prof. I. H. Donlow, prayer by Mr. A. McClure, Mrs. Ether Bonnett and P. Trans read the opening address. The following solos were rendered. Prof. I. H. Donlow, Miss Pearl Strickling, Miss Ruthie Donlow and others. Contribution from pupils, officers and visitors, Mr. E. C. E. as superintendent, deserves much credit for his contribution to the school. He papered the books to the papers read. A meeting was held a few nights ago with the auspices of the Red Cross with two of the leading speakers (white) of the city. They enjoyed the benefit and took an active part to do anything they could for the benefit of the soldiers, a large sum of money, was raised. Our much beloved pastor, Rev. W. H. Filled the pulpit at his church. Sunday and Sunday night. The house was packed to its utmost capacity. Rev Webb was a wire minister, deserves much credit for his contribution to the school and sums up $7.10 was realized. Mr. N. M. Rhanie will handle the Globe during his stay in Camden. Last Sunday was a fine day for church goers. Our Sunday school opened in full bloom at 10 o'clock with each officer at his post of duty. Mr. I. H. Dunlow, superintendent, Miss Clarazell Dunlow, secretary. Our Sunday school ranks with the best. Mr. Hayes Haston made a flying trip to Fayetteville, Tenn., last Saturday. Miss Ida M. Jennings passed through en route to Nashville, to the summer school. We hope his success to have such a strong man as presiding elder in the person of Rev W. M. Wormack, who will return soon. Miss Nettie Strickling has returned from a trip in Illinois, she reports a fine trip. There are others to be added in our next. Mr. Riley Carnie is spending this month in the west and has become a reader of the Globe.

We have not had a report for some few weeks, which may make some of our items appear stale, but we hope they will be og interest to those who like to hear from our little town. The health of our community is very good at this writing with a few exceptions. Mr. Westley Smith is very sick. On the 2nd Sunday. The First Baptist Church under the leadership of Rev. W. S. Vance, celebrated their 53rd anniversary. Each member rallied faithfully raising the handsome sum of $150.00. Mr. Geo. Vance of Clarksville, was here a few days last week visiting his brother, Rev. Vance. While here he favored the public with several musical selections which were enjoyed by all. Mr. Vance is a soloist o no mean ability. The rally given at the Primitive Baptist Church the 3rd Sunday under the leadership of Rev. A. M. Syler was also a success, raising the amount of $50.00, which sum goes to help complete the parage under erection. Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Hunt entertained 26 jolly week last Friday evening in honor of Mr. Russell mann, who has been visiting relatives and friends here. Quite an enjoyable time was enjoyed on Saturday night following, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Miller entertained a merry party also in the presence of Mr. Mann, who has returned to Louisville, KY, who has returned to Louisville, Miller have returned to Memphis where they have been attending school. Mrs. Flossie Cunningham made a flying trip to Coalmont and Memphis, last week. Mrs. Johnnie Horton who has been teaching school at Coalmont has returned home for the summer. The Franklin County teachers are requested to meet at the public school house the 1st Saturday in July to organize for the work. Better teachers and better schools should the motto As each year de mands better work. Prof. D. A. Townsend who has been in the teaching profession 50 years has retired to rest from the work. Prof. Townsend has been faithful and loyal to the work his vacancy will be keenly felt. Who can fill his place? 33 more of our young men left for the color Friday. The parting was sad as usual, but the boys left cheerery. Mrs. A. C. and Miss M. C. Bod are spending the summer Me Mimille and Mt. Pleasant with relatives. The Phyllis Wheatly D. S.

SOCIETY NEWS
The Galedias of Pleasant Greene Baptist Church and a few of their friends had quite a nice trip Sunday, June 23, to the cemetery and Mrs. Carney, seven miles out on the Beuna Vista pike. The congenial party met at the residence of Mrs. McKay on 12th avenue, North, from which they started at 12:30 p.m. The trip was made on a large motor truck, which had a seating capacity of forty. On arriving at the Carney home they were greeted and welcomed as Mr. and Mrs. Carney who always welcome visitors to their home being over and as the crowd had had a long ride, it was plainly visible that she spread her hungry, so dinner was spread in the beautiful lawn which fronts the house. Chicken, pies, cake, beans, sandwiches of all kinds, cream, lemonade and many more good things to eat were plentiful and enjoyed by all. After dinner games were the amusing feature of the evening. A wild goose chase was very much enjoyed. A big, juicy baked hen was hidden and at a signal from theatcher, Mr. S. H. Johnson, every one on the hunt. For about half an hour every one was eagerly searching when the emergy laugh of Mrs. Mary Clark Cooper, Galedai of Mt. Olive, pealed out, every one came to a standstill and true emergy she had found the goose. Other games, such as jumping rope, in the well and little Sallie Walker were enjoyed until late in the evening. Then the crowd assembled on the lawn and heard interesting remarks from Deacons Graves, Baugh and Daddy Washington, Messrs. Johnson Bush and Dave Washington, which were beneficial. Each one at the request of Chris Cooper received a piece of chicken as a souvenir. Then the start for home was made, all expressing a desire to go again real soon.

KNITTERS!
The Divisional Red Cross Headquarters at Atlanta is sending out an appeal to all its Chapters asking for more care in the knitting of socks. Think of fifty percent of the socks received at the Bureau of Supplies having to be made over or have some kind of corrective measures applied! Most of these faulty ones have to be re-toed. Sometimes a sock is perfect otherwise, but a sharp pointed toe spoils it. These toes lump up in the shoe, and no soldier can march miles and miles with his socks all lumpy in the toe of his shoes.
Then often, too often, there are knots. Now knots are very easy to avoid. Just splice the ends of the knot and tie them in place. Don't tie it, and say "Nobody'll ever notice it." The soldier will notice it. It is really quite impossible for him to wear a sock with knots.
Before handing your socks into the Chapter, see that they are of these dimensions: leg, 14 inches long to bottom of heel, four inches across leg; foot, 11 to 12 inches long, from edge of heel to end of toe.
In casting on stitches, do not pay so much attention to the number of stitches as to the number of inches. Let it measure about 4 inches across the leg.
And there must not be knots.
GENERAL:
The following editorial is taken from the Christian Science Monitor of June 22:
THE NEGRO SOLDIER AT THE FRONT
Once more the attention of the public has been called to the signal service which the Negro troops of France have rendered to the cause of the Allies. Recently that service was made the subject of a complimentary resolution in the French Chamber of Deputies, and it is now announced that a Negro deputy from Senegal is traveling through French West Africa with a view to intensifying voluntary enlistment amongst the different tribes that people these vast territories. The announcement could not come at a more favorable time than the present, when the American newspapers are enthusiastically praising the Negro troops of the United States Army at the front for their bravery, self-abnegation, and
exemplary bearing. Numerous battallions have been raised among the Negro race for service abroad, and the men who compose their ranks have manifested much the same enthusiasm and comprehension of the lofty task before them as their white comrades-In-arms.
The war, it is said, has revealed to the Negro a new world. As far as the French Negro forces, which number at least 120,000 men, are concerned, their conception of service has assumed a form of patriotism almost religious in its sincerity. The point to remember with regard to the employment of French black troops is that they are in a literal sense defenders of their territories against conquest by a ruthless foe. One of the distinct objects of Germany in attacking France was the capture of the French African colonies. This circumstance was brought out in the conversations between the German Chancellor and the British Ambassador in Berlin on July 29, 1914, when he declared that he was quite ready, in return for England's neutrality, to promise that Germany would not annex any territory in France but would not make a like prise with regard to the French possessions outside of Europe. France thus had no difficulty in achieving a magnificent response to her appeal to the natives of Africa and of Far Eastern colonies to rally to the defense of their land. If one may include the Arabs of Northern Africa under the same heading, then it may be literally said that hundreds of thousands of fighting men from Africa fell into line in the French ranks and fought on the western front. That rally was a magnificent tribute to the benevolent and fraternal policy of the Africa which has secured for her such stout defenders among the people whom she has taken under her protection, and was the best possible answer to the hypocritical protest, in Germany's note to neutralis, against the colonial forces of native troops in the Entente armies. This protest came with poor grace from a nation which had secretly worked to create a Holy War in Asia and Africa, and a "black peril" in Africa by fomenting a revolt against the white race in the French and English colonies. Barred from using its own native troops in Europe, Germany of the conscientious scruples did not hesitate to use them against the colonial troops detailed to wrest the German colonies from their unscrupulous owners.
On the occasion of Germany's most recent protest on the subject of the employment of black troops, the note, it is fair to assume, was intended to make a particular appeal to the "sense of humanity" of the American people whose population includes 10,000,000 and more Negroes. But once again Germany failed to gauge the sentiment of other nations, or the mettle of the Negro population of the United States. Speaking general-

ly, if the prestige of the white race has suffered in this war, then it is not because, as was pointed out in the French Chamber of Deputies, of the employment of Negro troops in the war, but because of Germany's crimes.

We agents are sometimes mistreated at the door and on the highway, we meet a bunch of our old friends of gone by days on College street a few evenings ago and we tried to make our business as an agent known to them, but when they recognized us a Colored agent; the fastest time they probably ever accomplished getting away from us, except one lady who in a refine way stopped long enough to tell she was not able to subscribe. Now we don't want to speak too plainly, yet some of our people should be reminded some times, I have been sitting quietly while the ball rolled from side to side, until we have been jammed and now we must speak out or we will be sicker then we were last week when we returned home. Let us say this; there is one lesson some of us should learn, and our desires are to leave it with them. In order to overcome, we must cultivate sociability, good deeds and sweet words to the right party, and thick more of the agents of your race then you do of the other man's race, don't use anything the man has if you can get from your race and get to the home. We are still trying to get the home to see the young children could get from reading a colored newspaper. Some of our teachers and other leaders claim that they are not able to take a Negro paper. We travel around among our people a great deal and have found out that they can take one of our in papers, the other papers never speak very many degrading words for us in mentioning the good things some colored people are doing, but if he is accused of newspaper degrading he gets a big writeup, so don't fail to take some Negro newspaper and please be sure you pay for it, then watch the weekly Negro paper grow up to a daily.

To the Editor of the Globe:
It might be interesting to some of your readers to hear how educational affairs are conducted outside of Nashville. When a teacher never leaves the confines of his own city, his vision becomes limited, his views narrow, his independence weakened. He does things in the same old way year after year, and is apt to feel that he cannot live anywhere but in one loss he job would start. He can such a catastrophe haunts him and prevents him from doing his best.
The children of Nashville are entitled to the very best service the teachers can give. It is for this reason that I am at Chicago University, that I may get new thoughts and new methods to benefit the children, who come under my care. There is an ambition, which has long lingered in my breast and which I have never revealed before and that is this: that it may be said of me after the flowers have been placed on my casket, that he did more to inspire "school of Nashville to serve for the highest education and to reach the highest scholarship than any other single individual." I hope that is a praiseworthy ambition.
To begin with, I did not come directly to Chicago University. I went out of my way at the expense of several dollars that I might have the opportunity of witnessing the commencement exercises of Sumner High School at St. Louis, Mo. I wanted to see how they did things in Missouri, at the greatest Negro high school in America. I am glad I went. The exercises were great. I might say perfect. I learned some things there that I shall certainly put into execution at our next commencement exercise. The principal, is a human dynamo. The music, under the direction of Prof. Tyler, was charming. It was carefully selected and beautifully rendered. Some of it we have used at Pearl in past years. Prof. Tyler teaches nothing but music. He is supervisor of music for the Negro schools in St. Louis and prepares the musical program for Sumner High. Quite different from the situation at Nashville. In our schools we have no musical supervisor and no effort is now being made to secure one. But one is badly needed. Some years ago, the colored principals' association agitated the matter, drew up responses and of F. E. Green and the students of the prominent. But the movement died from lack of support. The citizens, whose children would be benefited, seem to have no interest in the matter and the race leaders seem to be in mortal combat with each other, trying to see who is the "biggest." Thus the public welfare goes abegging.
but to return to Summer High There were 51 graduates from the High School and 4 from the Normal Department. The Normal Department is a two years' course following the completion of the four year high school course, and its graduates are eligible to teach in the schools. The Summer High School offers six courses of study to its Negro children. The General or College Preparatory Course, as it is sometimes called, from which there were 25 graduates; the Home Economics course with 12 graduates; the Manual Training Course with 7; the Scientific with 4; the Commercial with 2 and the Fine Arts Course with 1. The Course of Study, which was gotten up by the Pearl High School faculty and which was not adopted, due possibly to this same lack of interest and impenetrable lethargy on the part of Nashville's colored citizens, was modeled somewhat after the Summer High School Course, but modified to suit local conditions. The courses of study fix the textbook used in the course. Nashville does not have an option to choose which COURSE they shall take, but simply which SUBJECTS they will take. This should be remedied, if possible, under the new superintendent. At the commencement it was my pleasure to meet Dr. John W. Witches, the superintendent of schools, and President Murphy, of the Board of Education. The next day I called on the superintendent, who cordially received me and gave me an interesting interview. I see he is to lecture here at the university on July 16 and 17 on the subject "The Training of Teachers in Service." I shall make it a point to see him and hear him. While in St. Louis I was invited to attend the graduating exercises of the 8th grade class of the Simmons School of which Prof. E. W. Cole is principal. There were 41 graduates and I was asked to address them, which I attempted to do to the best of my ability. I must not omit to tell you that I attended a patriotic mass meeting of Negroes for colored soldiers, which was held in the Coliseum. The school children were present. The school children also sang songs, drills and folk dances. This, too, is different from Nashville. I had just heard Theodore Roosevelt speak in the same building a few night before. The Negroes in St. Louis seem to be able to get to gather on a public question. It was at this meeting that I heard Dr. C. H. Phillips, the son of our esteemed Bishop Phillips, make an address. was proud that he acquitted himself with honor. He was deliberate thoughtful and eloquent. When he said: "While we are fighting to make the world safe for democracy we want

TRAINING SCHOOL FOR 'CHAPLAINS ENROLLS CLERGYMEN OR MANY CREEDS.
The third session of the Training School for Chaplains is now in progress. Mq. J. Alfred A. Pruden, a chaplain of the Coast Artillery Corps, is in charge.
The training school is modeled on the lines of the Reserve Officers' Training School. Stress is laid upon military affairs rather than upon theological instruction. It is understood by the Government that all candidates have had the necessary theological education when their applications are submitted by their denominational chaplain committees, the general committee on Army and Navy chaplains, or the Catholic chaplains bureau.
According to the Federal council of churches, the faculty of the training school includes representatives from the Episcopal Church, the Methodist Episcopal, the Baptist and the Roman Catholic. Among the candidates are Roman Catholics and members of the Augustinian, the Jeuillot, and the Redemptional Orders, Baptists, Presbyterian, Methodists, Episcopalians, Congregationalists, Lutherans and Disciples, all working and conferring together. During the time of instruction the training school will open July 12. The course covers a period of five weeks. During the time of instruction the candidates receive the salary and wear the uniform of a private of the United States Army. The facilities of the school have been so enlarged as to accommodate 250 candidates. This increase has been necessitated by the demand for chaplains created by the recent passage of the bill allowing one chaplain for each 1,200 officers and men.
ABE'S LITTLE SISTER IS LOYAL
ABE'S LITTLE SISTER IS LOYAL
Bishop Walter R. Lambuth, chairman of the war committee of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, reports the following episode having taken place on a train speeding southward from New York:
"A young American Jew, not long in this country, having volunteered for service with our Army, had been ordered to report at Fort Ogelthrop, Ga." said the Bishop. "He left behind a sister, whose 12-year-old daughter works in a department store, assisting in the support of her mother. Upon the Uncle's departure, the niece gave him the following letter:
"Dear Uncle Abe: As sure as there is a God in heaven, mother and I will be praying for you. So be brave, hold up your head, and fight for victory and for your adopted country.
"Frieda."
"This serves as an example of the spirit of those Russian refugees who have adopted the United States as their land."
SETTLEMENT PROVIDES FOR
FAMILIES OF SOLDIERS
An average of $100 a month has been turned over to the Red Cross by the Brawnson Steelement Association of Los Angeles, Cal. This is a Catholic organization interested in all phases of war work. The Rev. John C. Smyth, of the National Catholic War Council reports: "Work has been progressing among the families of men serving with the colors whose parents are of foreign birth," said Father Smyth, the ideals of democracy and liberty, the law of justice have been explained, these people, also selective draft law, the questionnaire and the aims of the United States in entering the war. Mutual has been done to accomplish a national and to protect the loyalty of these foreign-born people against propaganda. Illustrated lectures have undertaken to aid the Government by their effect upon Mexican aliens in fostering loyalty to our country. These aims indicate the ideals of the United States in the war.
"Instruction has been given in home garden work. Assistance has been rendered in house-to-house visits for food conservation and sales of thrift stamps, war saving stamps, and Liberty Bonds."
BREAKFAST FOR 5,000 CATHOLIC
BOYS AT CAMP MADE.
Breakfast was served recently to 2000 boys by the Catholic Women's War Relief Association of Washington, after a camp communion service at Camp Meade, Md. This Washington society was assisted by the Baltimore branch of the same organization, the Rev. Lewis J. O'Hern reports.
Cardinal Gibbons was present for this service and delivered an address to the boys. The Rev. Ignatius Smith, national director of the Holy Name Society, also spoke, after which most of the boys took the vows of clean speech.
"Camp Communion services are held every Sunday at Camp Meade," said Father O'Hern, "and the Catholic Women's War Relief Association furnishes breakfast to boys attending these services, as otherwise they would be without food until the midday meal."
TWO CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHAP.
LAINS APPOINTED.
Two additional chaplains have been allotted to the Christian Science Church, according to a report from Boston. One of the men chosen has been commissioned. The other is already in France as a member of the Christian Science War Relief and Warfare Committee. He report states concerning him: "It is possible that he will be commissioned and assigned for duty in France without the necessity of returning to this country."
PASTORS ACT AS CAMP LEADERS
IN FARM SCHOOLS
Camp leaders have been secured from some of the pastorates of churches in Connecticut, for the school in Hartford, where boys are taking a short course in farm work. This course fits the boys to become efficient members of the United States Boys' Working Reserve, according to Arthur Howe, assistant State director. The course includes instruction in dairy, field work, care of poultry, handling of horses and farm machinery, and a general "hardening" for farm service. A period each day is devoted to military training. After the completion of the training the boys are placed in positions with farmers.

in the State of Texas, for the work of camp pastors. Thirteen thousand dollars has been raised for this same purpose in Virginia, according to Bishop Walter R. Lambuth, chairman of the war work commission of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. This money will be used for the salaries of camp pastors and for the erection of tabernacles outside the camps. Already six tabernacles have been erected in southern camp communities and 18 camp pastors are working among the various cantonments. These camp pastors co-

The Catholics of the Dominion of Canada keep in constant touch with their chaplains through the over-seas secretary-treasurer, who has an office in the Canadian headquarters building in London. A large amount of religious supplies have been sent to the chaplains and soldiers by their people in Canada.

Buford; the War Savings Society, organized by Esq. Abernathy (white), who made a very interesting talk, being followed by Prof. Dean; also white. By request of Prof. Dean, "Sweet and Low" was sung, being led by Mr. E. B. Buford. Sunday night the 26th, the Society was addressed by Hon. Newton White, ex-Speaker of the Senate. He spoke in glowing terms of the record of the colored soldiers and of the race as a whole saying we are the most patriotic people on the globe and that in his rock on the exemption board he had made a complaint coming from the colored drafted boys. He also urged the imminent something by for a rainy day and daring that the buying of the War Stamp is nothing other than this. The meeting was opened with the song, "America," led by Mrs. M. K. Buford. Prayer was offered by Mr. Mack Buford. After speech making the church rally song which had been revised by Mack Buford and the song "I want to be a Christian," revised by Mr. M. K.

furled a large U. S. Flag, while just over the rostrum hung Red Cross Pennants. Hon. White said it was the first decoration of its kind he had seen in going from place to place to speak and that this with "America" and other songs showed our loyalty with all the organizations connected with church and home duties. We are certainly being kept busy, busy, busy. Dr. Edwards preached an excellent sermon at Haywood, Sunday night, the 9th inst. Some said the doctor had never preached here before. He seemed at his best. His sermon closed the third quarter. There being realized $22.35, which was fair in allowing that small pox is raging in the whorlhead of one of our churches on the other church, burden on the other two churches, but the pastor, Rev.

Messrs Mack bufford and Monroe Martin are delegates representing Mary and stewards Board. Mrs. M. K. Bufford and Miss Rose represent the Stewardesses and Daughters of Conference. Mr. Fisher and Mr. Erick Coleman of Prospect, father and son of Mrs. Mack Bufford visited here recently. Mr. Colemena, her son was a volunteer, he was sent to Newport News, last December but it developed that he is affected with rheumatism, so he was discharged. He speaks very complimentary of the moment given to colored soldiers and the church grieved of his inability to the pond, to go with the boys across the pond, to see, there is such a difference between mill life and civil life, that he tools He is in a cemetery here at home. He hopes to recover sufficiently to return. He says the boys for the most part are high spirited and jolly and seldom speak of wanting to be at home. Such reports are pleasing and comforting to the race as well as to the relatives of the boys. Mrs. Alice Shepherd and Miss Courtney Martin of Columbia were week-end guests of relatives here.

TULLAHOMA
When the sad news reached here Saturday from St. Louis, that Mr. Milton Bate was dead, it spread like wild fire. Mr. Bate was at work in one of the great foundaries and met with an accident and died from the effects. He was well known in our town being the son of the late Peter Bate and Dana Bate. He was the brother of Mrs. Minnie Robertson of South Pittsburg, Mrs. Bate and her daughter, Mrs. Lacey Robertson, Sunday evening. Mrs. Lace Winton was called to Memphis last week to be present at the death and burial of her son Elzie, who died there after a few weeks of illness. Elzie Lock-was well known in this town as he was reared here, but had gone away
and made good. More of our boys left last week for the camp. Large preparations were made for them. The ladies of the Red Cross prepared large baskets of food for them. Mitchell Moore (single) said that his going to the army meant something, and if there was any chance in the world to win the war or whip the Germans, he was in for it. Earl Whittaker (single), who said that the happiest he ever heard the German, Mr. Davidson (white) said Get ready Earl to leave Friday evening. Ambrose Culley (single) but a good railroad man, said that he had rather fight the German any time than work on the railroad, so Ambrose said that he intended to make a brave soldier. Ernest Moore, last but not least but single said that if anybody could catch the Kaiser he was the man and that he was going to bring the bacon home. The boys all left happy and we hope that they will always be at sand and until Germany rearrenders. Rev. Kusner was at Rucker Sunday, preaching the gospel. Mrs. Dixon was a live wire last week. Rev. S. Strayhorn was in town Wednesday en route to Sparta to set up a Masonic Lodge. He was accompanied by Rev. A. E. Martin, the popular pastor of the M. E. Church. The members of this Lodge are quite anxious to have Rev. Martin return again and give them more instruction on Masonry. Rev. Martin has the goods and he is well up and cared for them. Large numbers helped to the hall event last week to hear the man preacher of the Sanctified church. George Neal and father are at Hadley Bend this week. Mrs Mary Russell is to be out again Miss Malissa White has returned from McMinnville where she was called to attend a funeral.

"I contracted a cold while in the Spanish-American war, and it left me with a bronchial trouble and asthma. I have been a constant sufferer ever since, and part of the time I could not lay down at night," says Mr. J. J. Barry of 361 Twenty-fifth avenue, north Nashville, Tenn.
"I was taking medicine all the time," continues Mr. Barry, "but found nothing that would cure me. Mr. J. A. Wells advised me to try Lung-Vita. I did so, and want to say that this is the first winter in twenty years that I have not been bothered with asthma and bronchial troubles.
"I can hardly realize that I am now willing to think of these troubles. And just think of going through a winter like this without either of those terrible diseases, is great."

THE DEVIL BOY
The Devil Boy is pressed with work,
But whenever he gets a chance he
surely lurks.
Inhis little home called the Devils' Hole.
Or around the corner his face you
may behold.
After being away for some length of time.
He begins to rest in his foreman's
mind.
Well says he (foreman) where is the
boy.
He thinks he was employed as a play
toy.
After a search the boy he beholds.
And in a nice way he begins to scold,
If up here you cannot stay.
You take your hat and go away.
