He delivered an address to the convention, congratulating them for the progress made during the last two years. He said notwithstanding the many difficulties they had to overcome since the last grand session, he assured them that the future prospect for the Order was bright and hopeful.
Dr. J. W. Whitfield, State Grand Master, delivered his biennial address Wednesday morning, July 3rd, at 10 o'clock. The address was very interesting and contained matter of great importance to the Oder. He is an eloquent and forceful speaker and hold the entire convention spellbound for two hours. The grand officer made their reports. The mayor's welcome address on behalf of the citizens of Galatin was delivered by his representative, who made a splendid speech full of wholesome instruction. Wednesday night an hour was set apart for patriotic exercise conducted by Dr. J. A Lester. Excellent patriotic speeches were made. Immediately after the reports of grand officers and committees were rendered, the Grand Master announced the election of grand officers for the ensuing term of the Master. What the Master concluded his biennial address in the midst of great applause and demonstration of approval, the convention went wild and during the excitement a motion prevailed to suspend the rules and elect the present Grand Master by acclamation. Grand Master Whitfield, objected, stating that he would not accept the election except a chance was given any one who may desire to run. Summerfield Brown, of Nashville, was placed before the convention by P. F. Hill. The reason was that Dr. J. Whitfield was elected the overwhelmingly Supreme Master, Dr. J. B Singleton, befittingly installed the of雀select. The convention adjourned to meet in Hartville the first Tues day in July, 1920.
The Fraternal Gazette, of which Grand Master Whitfield is editor, and founder, was endorsed by the entire convention.

COLLISION—SOME ONE BLUND-
ERED—SIGNALS MIXED—MANY

STILL BODIES UNIDENTIFIED.
Because somebody blundered, at
least 121 persons were killed and
fifty-seven injured shortly after 7:00
o'clock on Tuesday morning, when
'shville, Chattanooga & St. Louis
Railway passenger trains No. 1 from
Memphis and No. 4 from Nashville
crashed head-on together just around
the sharp, steep graded curve at
Dutchman's Bend, about five miles
from the city near the Harding road.
Both engines reared and fell on either side of the track, unrecognizable masses of twisted iron and steel, while the fearful impact of the blow drove the express car of the northbound train through the flimsy wooden coaches loaded with human freight, telescoped the smoking car in front and pillling high in air the two cars behind it, both packed to the aisles with Negroes en route to the powder plant and some 150 other regular passengers.
Just where lies the blame, it is impossible now to say, Officials of the road are silent. But one of three things is reasonably sure—that the engine of N. 4th is the wrong instruction, ran by his signal, overlooked the schedule on which he was supposed to run. That he knew the Memphis train to be a little late, leads to the conjecture that he was attempting to reach the switch at Harding station, a short distance beyond the scene of the wreck, before the inbound train arrived at that point.
As Engineer Kennedy's train approached the signal tower in the new shops, it is authoratively stated, he blew for his signal and was given a clear board. Before the train had passed under the tower, however, the red board was dropped, signaling him to stop. The supposition is that he never saw this signal, as both the engine and the passenger tried in vain to attract his attention. sides this, getting a clear signal gave him no right to proceed, as he knew that another passenger train having the right of way was approaching at no great distance.
Orders given him upon leaving the station are said to have advised him that Train No. 1 would meet Train No. 7 (an accommodation from Waverly) at Harding Station, and are also reported to have given the engine number of train No. 1. The conductor of Kennedy's train is understood to have stated that he was busy taking up tickets after leaving the station and did not notice that the train had run past the double track, which extends for three quarters of a mile beyond the new shops, until it was almost at the scene of the wreck. The speed of the two trains when they met is estimated by old and experienced railroad men as being not less than sixty miles an hour. The scene immediately following the collision is indiscribable. Those escaping unhurt or with lesser injuries fled from the spot in a veritable panic. The cornfield on both sides of the track was trampled by many, and littered with fragments of iron and metal that the demolished cars. The dead lay here and there, grotesquely sprawling where they fell. The dying moaned appeals for aid or, speechless, rolled their heads from side to side and writhed in agony. Everywhere there was blood and suffering and chaos.
From the wreckage, beneath which many still lived, shrieks and muffled cries arose, and here and there helpless yet visible victims prayed for speedy deliverance by death. As soon as possible every available doctor and nurse was rushed to the scene, and a steady stream of ambulances and automobiles, turned over by their owners to assist in the work of mercy, began the task of transporting to local hospitals and undertaking establishments the dying and the dead. Among the very first to arrive and when immediately into the work of rescue, doing much effective "first aid" before even the doctors or the wrecking train reached the scene were Alfred T. Levine, Frank Sanderson, Frank David, John J. Vertrees, Jr., and Harry Friedman. At a time when conditions were at their worst these men labored practically without tools and struggled tirelessly against great odds. In spite of the most strenuous work, however, the labor of recovering the bodies of the dead, many of whom are mangled beyond the possibility of recognition, has not yet been completed. At a late hour in the afternoon the bodies of six Negroes, all fearfully mutilated, were discovered beneath a pile of debris thought to be merely a scrap heap from amoebic shells engines. All morning the centered about the telescoped smoking car of the outbound train, train crews working hard to raise with jackets the heavy body of the express coach beneath which was pinioned or crushed most of the white victims.

BIG DAY AT NATIONAL SEMINARY
Churches To Hold Union
11 A. M. Services.
GREAT PREPARATIONS MADE—
FOURTH SUNDAY WILL BE OB-
OBSERVED—MANY VISITORS
EXPECTED—OLD-TIME CAMP
MEETING.
Great preparations are being made by the Baptist churches of this city to observe Nashville Day out at the Theological Seminary, Sunday, July 28. This will be the fourth Sunday in the month, and, according to the plans and announcements made by Doctors H. M. Burns, J. L. Harding, C. H. Clark, G. B. Taylor, G. B. Bolden, A. W. Porter, and in fact the following list of active ministers and pastors: Dr. W. H. Whittaker, Dr. J. C. Fields, Dr. T. J. Tunstill, Dr. A. B. Brown, Dr. B. G. Taylor, Dr. J. C. Harding, Dr. J. N. O. Alexander, Dr. H. A. Alfred, Dr. W. S. Ellington, Dr. S. S. Stuberfield, Dr. A. W. Brown, Dr. C. Roland, A. Phillips, Dr. N. T. Stork, A. Alexander, Rev. J. Moore. The day is to be given almost entirely to a city-wide Educational Rally. Most of the Baptist Churches are to transfer their eleven o'clock and three o'clock services on that Sunday to the campus of the Theological Seminary. A special program has been arranged and sermons will be preached and lectures delivered in interest of religious education. A mommoth chorus under the direction of the National Chorister will furnish the singing throughout the day. It is estimated by the Baptist people that at least 5,000 will be on the grounds during the day, as they have arranged to serve meals so that it will not be necessary to store the history of the churches their homes until the day services are over. Christian Education, as being emphasized by the leaders of the Baptist State Convention of Tennessee, seems to be the watchword. And now that the Summer School is in full swing, being largely attended, the indications point to the Theological Seminary project being a huge success. While practically all of the leading Baptist pastor will be出 of the city the week preceding this City-wide drive, they are to return, according to the best advices from Clarksville to throw their whole strength and their full support to the King of this effort the greatest success of the history of the Baptists of this city. It would appear that increasing interest in the Theological Seminary has not confined to Nashville and the State of Tennessee, as the correspondence and the inquiries from other sections of the country relative to the school have taken up the time of practically one man. One of the leading Baptists of the city remarked, only recently that he was gratified beyond expression to see the earnestness on part of the preachers of the city to acquire more knowledge. "They are coming daily with book in hand, and the love of Jesus in their hearts, trying to prepare themselves for the message that will be delivered further discussing the increasing interest in the Seminary. Further announcement of the plans are to the effect that special cars will be run from the transfer station for the convenience of those hundreds who will go out to the old Boscobel College site, for Sunday. The regular old-time camp meeting enthusiasm seems to be apparent throughout, and from all indications Baptist, large and small, will participate in this celebration.
one of the seats, his body held as in a vise, sat one of the passengers, still conscious, but with three of the dead crushed against him. Here the work began. The side of the car was chopped away and the man released, apparently in a dying condition.
From beneath the express car, some thirty men were later removed, only the last of their number being alive. His name could not be ascertained, but in the band of his hat were stamped the initials E. T. B.
Wearing apparels of every description strewed the ground, among which were several women's slippers, but it is believed that they belonged to the few Negro women passengers who either fied the scene or are numbered among the unidentified or uncovered dead.
To hundreds of men and women of Nashville, besides the doctors, nurses and others, are due unstinted praise for their labors in the work of rescue and alleviation of the suffering, injuries and bandages were in abundance, large quantities of ice were sent out from the city, and calls for assistance of any kind were promptly answered by those nearest at hand. Deputy sheriffs, du Pont police, spee-gents from the Department of Justice and members of the home guard afforded the police valuable assistance handling the immense crown of southerners who crowded everywhere, but no thirst or valuables were reported, although suites and other baggage was strewn broadcast over the grounds. Up to a late hour Tuesday night all street cars leading to the scene of the wreck were nacked with sightseers

Special to the Globe:
Hartsville, Tenn., June 9, 1921.—The Tennessee Annual Conference Epworth League Convention convened here June 26-28, with the president, Dr Jesse P. Price, in the chair. The pastor, Rev H. E. Erwin, and congregation had everything well prepared for the great number of incomers and snared no pains to make it pleasant for them.
The following clergymen were present; Dr J. D. Chavis, Dist. Supt. Memphis District; Rev J. H. Ellis District Superintendent Nashville District; Rev J. H. Ellis Superintendent Cumberland River District; Rev F. N. Collier, Dr J. W. Sebastian, Bishop I. B. Scott, D. D. LL, D. Rev. Wm. Neal, Rev G. A. C. Hill, Rev Anderson Phillips, Rev Dr. Robert A. Dowell and Rev Thomas, Mrs. Mattie C. Chavis, the very able wife of Dr. J. D. Chavis, was with us and was so helpful to us. Dr J. W. Sebastian, the third vice president, was asked to preside at the organ throughout the convention, and take charge of the music of the choir and with the very able assistance of Mrs. Bessie M. Brooks, the music was said to be the best ever heard in Hartsville. This was said to be the reason the rev Dr. Robert A. Dowell was elected secretary of the convention in the absence of the secretary, Miss Susie O. Brown, who was handicapped on account of sickness.
The convention was the best in its history. The following were elected for another year: Dr. J. P. Price, president emeritus; Rev. Dr. Ell J. Guthle, president; Rev. F. N. Collier, first vice president; Rev. Wm Neal, 2nd vice president; Rev. Dr R. A. Dowell, third vice president; Rev. Dr. J. W. Sebastian, fourth vice president; Miss S. O. Brown, secretary; Miss Etoy L. King, corresponding secretary; Rev. H. E. Erwin, treasurer.
On Wednesday night, the 26th, Bishop Scott delivered one of his famous lectures on "The Mystery of Africa," which was the finest in the business. On Thursday afternoon at 3:40, Dr J. D. Chavis preached a great sermon. On Wednesday morning, the 26th, the Rev. William Neal delivered a great sermon. On Thursday the 4th, the Rev. F. N. Collier delivered a great sermon that will not be forgotten by the convention. His theme was "Gospel Nicknacks." Friday night was a great concert conducted by Mrs. J. D. Chavis. Mrs. Jessie M. Brooks was re-elected Conference Superintendent Junior Epworth League. Thus goes the convention on the pages of history.
and taxicabs did an enormous business during the entire day and evening. It is estimated by members of the police department that during the day fully 50,000 persons visited the site, and that no accidents occurred is largely due to those officers on whom the duty devolved of keeping the huge throng in order.
Late comers were disappointed, however as the wrecking crews labored so effectively that the tracks were cleared and put in order in time for trains No. 2 to leave the Union Station on time for its regular run at 10 o'clock Tuesday night.
This, it is stated, is the first passenger train wreck on the N. C. and St. L. in many years, although a disastrous freight collision occurred several months ago within a few hundred yards of the site of the present wreck, on which ossasion three of the trainmen were killed and many heavily loaded cars smashed to bits.
Crowds of people visited the establishments of A. N. Johnson, Taylor and Co. and W. H. McGavock, undertakers, to view the dead of the wreck which occurred Tuesday morning. Each place was a beehive of activity. The morgues were filled to overflowing with the dead and the halls were used to accommodate the bodies in some instances. The dead were brought in every conceivable grusome shape. A. N. Johnson had trucks to assist in transferring the bodies. These trucks were open, and the bodies laid crosswise piled high as possible not to roll off. One body was brought in a washtub, Others had heads, hands and arms cut off, while some were split in two. Several women were among the colored workers who were among the men stationed on route to work at the Government powder plant. Colored doctors and nurses were rushed to the scene and rendered all aid possible. Many who reside here and are expecting relatives today thronged the streets and visited the undertakers' establishments. A large number of helpers were kept busy moving bodies from ambulances, while as many others were kept busy inside the establishments, which were filled to capacity. Extra embalmers were se
NUMBER 37
EQUAL RIGHTS PLEA TO CONGRESS
Leaders Of Race Only Want Justice For All.
LYNCHING A CRIME-FIVE OTHER REQUESTS—NEGROES DISCRIMINATED AGAINST IN FEDERAL BUILDINGS-OFFICERS ELECTED.
Congress is requested to make lynching a crime against the Federal government, and as such subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal courts, in a petition unanimously passed by the National Colored Liberty Congress, which closed its session here yesterday.
This and five other requests for the abolition of specific race discriminations are advocated by the petitioners as win-the-war measure. The petition has been placed in the hands of Senator Penrose, and is to be presented to the Senate this week.
The Colored Congress proxs that Negroes are discriminated against in public and Federal buildings in Federal territory, operated by the government in certain states in the army and navy school, in the right of suffrage in certain states and in the civil service.
The petitioners ask, in view of the military service rendered by their race during the present war, "that our own republic may not be a part of the world not safe for democracy." They also protest the segregation of races in officers' schools.
The Congress was called for the purpose of laying the cause of the colored man before the United States Congress, and was attended by 115 delegates from 33 states. H. H. Harrison, of New York, was chairman of the Congress, and Prof. J. W. Bell, of Kentucky, Secretary. William H. Trotter, of Boston, was elected chairman of the national executive committee for the coming year. M. W. Spencer was elected Secretary.
cured to prepare the bodies for identification, if possible. A number of women and children are among the dead.
George Hall, railroad porter on the train going out from Nashville, was among the dead. He was a resident of Nashville, and his body is at Taylor, Co.'s.
In speaking of their escape, several survivors at the "Y" said when the impact came between the two trains, they were miraculously thrown out of the windows clear of the wreck.
In some instances the escape of the more fortunate bordered on the miraculous. Noticeable among this number was the case of Milton Frank, a brother of John P. and Jas Frank, the Fourth Avenue clothers. Young Frank was with his brother Milton Lowenstein, when the latter proposed that they go into the smoker and have a smoke. When they reached the smoker, Frank objected to the crowded condition and returned to his car, where he went into the smoking compartment and smoked alone.
When the crash came he was thrown to the floor, but finding a convenient hammer broke the glass and crawled to safety. Others were recovered from beneath the wreck practically unhurt.
While the scenes at the white morgues were heartrending, those at the establishments of A. N. Johnson and Taylor and Co. were most pitiful. At the former place there were twenty-four unidentified bodies of Negroes and all day long a line passed in and out in vain hope of identifying some absent relative or friend. At a late hour no identifications had been made.
Three identifications were made at Taylor and Co.'s by relatives or white friends. The color line was forgotten and the whites rushed to the aid of the brother in black, offering any and every assistance in their hour of trouble.
To the lot of W. H. McGavock fell the care of the bodies of the Negroes from Pegram Station and Burns. He succeeding in getting the names of all but one of the bodies sent to his place.
Coffins were staked on trucks as long as they could be piled and rushed to the several establishments where the attendants worked until late in the night preparing the remains for shipment or burial. So anxious were the undertakers to do their full duty in the emergency that full bodies were prepared for burial without awaiting the arrival of relatives or the identification of the remains.
Never before have such scenes been witnessed in this city and the horror of day will long remain in the minds and memory of the thousands that viewed the greatest holocaust the South has witnessed in a generation.

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 ex-part chemist; it is made under the supervision of an accredited rescued 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 tough cleaner. Quinasoap lathers very well and fuffs and impairs a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo.
Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoan, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does obtain these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from the wholesaler or send them to you. Write to Seeby Drug Co. 79 East 130th street New York City, for a sample of Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper.—Adv.

More than one hundred of the leading colored preachers within a radius of one hundred miles of Talladega, Ala., will attend the Institute held at Talladega College on July 9, 10 and 11, under the auspices of the National Committee on Churches and the Moral Alms of the War. This was the first institute organized by this committee for colored ministers. The second one and will be in New Orleans, beginning July 23rd, and the third at Hampton, Virginia the last week in August.
The purpose of these gatherings, which are being held this summer in a dozen or more college and university centers throughout the country, is to study how the churches may make the best use of their opportunities to serve. The "faculty" of the Tallahassee school includes the following prominent speakers: Dean L. B. Moore, D. D. Howard University, Washington, D. C.; Prof. Geo. E. Haynes, Department of Labor, Washington, D. C.; Bishop W. Heard, A. M. E. Church, Philadelphia; Ph.D. Thirkield, New Orleans, La. Rev. W. W. Lucas, D. D. Meridian, Miss.; Major R. R.

New Orleans, La.; President Frederick A. Sumner, Talladega College; Dr. Frank Stanley Van Eps, New York City; Miss Denny and Mrs. E. G. Polk, representing the American Red Cross; Mr. L. V. Gordon, representing the National Committee, New York City.
"The subjects discussed will be; "The Moral Alms of the War," "The Historical Background of the War," "The War in Future," "The World War and Reconstruction," "The Rural South and New World Problems," "Education During and After the War," "How to Make the Ideas as Expressed in the President's Message Effective in the Local Community."
The alms of the Institute are thus expressed in the letter sent from the New York headquarters of the National Committee to the clergymen invited to attend.
The institute will be held "for the purpose of discussing and conferring together upon the subject of the moral aims of this war and the part the churches and religious organizations shall have in reshaping conditions following the war. We can prepare for a fair world until this war has ended. The emphasis is put upon the immediate necessity of winning the war; but this war cannot be won in the best sense of the word unless we keep the great moral issues for which we are fighting clearly before the minds of the American people. We need your presence and your help. This is a purely educational and inspirational agenda to deepen the spiritual life call and help us meet the pressing problems in our various communities."
The National Committee on the Churches and the Moral Aims of the War was organized last January to put a greater crusading spirit into the war by mobilizing clergymen and church workers all over the country. Since April it has conducted more than 400 patriotic conferences and mass meetings in 35 states. The members of the committee are: Hamilton H. Talton, Chairman, William H. Taft, Alton B. Parker, the Rev. Arthur J. Brown, the Rev. Sidney L. Gulick, the Rev. Frederick Lynch, the Rev. Charles S. Macfarland, the Rev. William P. Merrill, Glenl Frank, George A. Plimpton, William H.

CHAPLAIN WRIGHT WRITES INTERESTING LETTER
Mrs. Elmer M. M. Wright of Helman Street is in receipt of a very interesting letter from her husband, Chaplin Elmer M. M. Wright, who is now at service in France.

He tells of a reception that was given by the men to Mrs. Curtis, the first American colored woman to land in France as an assistant in the various branches of war service there. The men planned this reception themselves and it was a surprise to Mrs. Curtis who did not know that any thing was

FATHER WRIGHT WRITES.
56th Service Battalion Engineers, Wednesday evening of this week. I went, to a cantonment about two miles east of here and was one of the speakers at a reception given in a large Y. M. C. A. auditorium in honor of Mrs. Curtis, the widow of the late minister to Liberia. She is the first colored woman worker of the American Y. M. C. A. to land upon French soil. While I have passed two or three colored French women on the streets of Bordeaux, she is really the first American colored woman I have seen since my arrival in this reception was quite a surprise. This reception was one of the companies of my battalion D, got together and gave her a beautiful tea set and a fine diamond ring. The commanding officer of that company was also present and made a talk to the boys. When one of the men of the company presented these surprise gifts to Mrs. Curtis, she was overwhelmed and hardly knew what to say, so great the surprise.

I go to the city every morning and buy a French newspaper since I have learned to master French well enough to read them. One of the papers of June the 14th has the following caption: To Our Left We Have Still Grown and Grown and Grown and Enemy Hurled Back on Matz. "Friends Where Else Their Attempts Have Failed." "Their Weariness Shows Itself and Our Vigor Increases." "The Americans Are Still Beating the Boche." The news concerning the American troops occupies a prominent place in the French newspapers. I received a nice letter from Sister Glayda a day or two ago. She says I have not been out of my mind since I sailed for France, and that her sister came to see each other again in this life. Mabel dear, I have never thought of anything but of returning to the States to be with my sweet little wife, sister and friends again. The prayers of the righteous availeth much. How sweet it is of you that you both try to comfort each other. Give my best regards to Mesdames Houston, Hunt, Carr, Steele, Jackson, Battle, Kemp, Miss Tommie Male, Griffith and other friends who ask of me. How appreciate their prayers and thoughts of me. And by all means don't forget to express my gratitude to Mrs. Killebrue.

Nashville, Tenn. July 12,
THE COMING PROGRAM.
On the recommendation of Secre-
tary Baker and Gen, March, sup-
ported in at least a nalf hearted way
by Gen. Crowder Congress has drop-
ped {ts plan for immediate extension
up and down of the draft age limits
ang for the present the young men
of 20 or 19 or 18 and the older men
of up to 40 or 45 will not be ger-
istered for possible conscription.
Firat of all, it is worthy of some
‘attention that the war department
now has won enough confidence in
‘Congress that it can make such a re-
quest based on any kind of promises
and obtain prompt aquiesences, That
fact*tegisters the keen pleasure of
Congress and the nation at the war
Department's performance since it
was rudely jarred awake in March.
It is also demonstrated by the real
patriotism of man congressmen whora
it was customary not long back for
administration partisans to cast as-
persions at. It shows that when the
government does things and gives
basis for the faith that it will con-
tinue to do things it will meet no
hampering in Congress. That plece
of credit Congress Is emphatically
entitled to.
‘As to the request of the war de-
partment for delay, its ultimate justi-
fication will depend on the speed with
which its own comprehensive war
program is got into shape and sub-
mitted. The understanding is that
it will be ready in ninety days. A
considerable time will no doubt be
reauited by congress to debate the
program and amend or adopt it
‘Thus it is certain that a definite pol-
fey of meeting the nation’s man
power necds among other things can-
not be expected for some months to
come, If anything like present rate
of raising and forwarding divisions
fs maintained, there will need a max-
imum degree of speed when the
measure is finally enacted, Any un-
necassary delay will carry danger
for the cause
A short time ago the war depart-
ment request for even ninety days
delay would have met with the con-
Viction on all sides that it was due
to pacifism and a reluctance to deal
separately with vast and pressing
noeils. A few voices are raised even
now to intimate that fear. But the
country is ready as a whole, along
with Congress to aecept the depart.
mont’s recent energy a5 a perma-
nent and to assume that old happy
disregard of facts and of prohabilt-
ties Is gone forever.
In the meantime sinee the depart
ment program is in the process of
formulation it will not be amiss t¢
continue discussion of the policies
that inust be settled.
DOWN IN THE TENTH.
As usual the boys down In the
Tenth Congressional District are do-
ing the right thing in the right way
at the right time. These bows always
did know how to do things, Thelr
latest bid for fame is putting for-
ward that peerless statesman, R. R.
Church as their choice for state com:
mitteeman for the Tenth Congres-
sional District, comprising Harde-
man, Fayette, Shelby and Tipton
Counties, Mr. Church is no strip-
Hing, when it comes to polities. He
is no weakling when it comes to doing
things, Though not given to speect
making it is conceded that he is
Power among the mighty. Mr
Church on the state Bxecutive Com
mittee would do much for the rac
as he is a man of courage and un
doubted ability. He has conviction
and the manliness to proclaim them
‘Phe Republicans of the tenth con
‘gressional district honor themselve
when they honor R. R. Church. Th
constituency of Mr. Church are hig
class, the majority of them ownin,
homes, are intelligent, thrifty and
a credit to any civilization. We ap-
pend the following from the Memphis
Times and endorse every line of it:
‘The Hon, Robt. R. Church is our
candidate for the State Bxecutive
Committeeman, which is the Republi-
can State Primary Board for the Tenth
Congressional District, comprising
Hardeman, Fayette, Shelby and Tip-
ton Counties.
/ Mr. Church is well known to us all.
He fs a young man of viston, lofty
ideals and noble purpose. He is
erudite, broad-hearted, patriotic and
loyal. ‘He is well versed in the af-
= ‘of the government and the polit
eal issues of the day, both national
and local. He is deeply interested In
the welfare of his country In general
‘and of his people in particular. He
‘is a Republican of the truest kind;
he believes in his party and Its ability
to carry fotward the splendid work
‘of the people.
‘The committee tn selecting him as
our candidate in the primary election
on the Ist of August made the best
possible selection, and the Republi-
can Colored voters of the above
named counties can do no higher
honor to themselves and their party,
on the 1st of August, than by electing
‘him their worthy representative in
the primary.

‘FORD, DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE.
Nothing will be accomplished by
sneering at the ability of Henry
Ford, though no doubt he is far bet-
ter qualifled for manufacturing au-
tomobiles than for practicing states-
manship. His statesmanship like
qualifications ought to be judged so
far as possible not on the presump-
tion that because he has succeeded In
fone line he cannot succeed in an-
xt, but on the showing he has
made whenever he dabbled in politi-
cal affairs, That showing when one
thinks of Oscar II, is not very en-
couraging. Indeed, the most practi
cal of men in business have given
signs of being the most impractical
of men in the realms of politica
thought. ‘The term “political” is no
partisan.
Opposition to the partisan trick
attempted in Michigan by democrat
is natural and justified, The Nev
Yark World, staunchest of democrati
organs concedes that Ford's strengt
a8 a senatorial candidate of an
kind is based in a small measure o
{nis demonstrated business —abilit
and ina large measure on his lbera
| poliey towards labor, as exemplific
‘\by paying good wages. Very likel
'|that liberal labor policy 1s anothe
evidence of Ford's business shrew
ness.

'/things now look he will _probab)
“{prove the strongest candidate th
*! Democrats can select. If he win
*\the tact that he carried his party |
;|vietory In @ normally Republica
state will not be intolerable. Bt
"| there should be a clear understandin
‘|that he runs either as a democrat «
fas an independent with democrat
"Jendorsement. There is not th
“fleast warrant for presenting him
‘|the people as a republican wit
democratic endorsement, The fals
,]ty of that representation is what
tT objected to,
With the no wheat regulations
there should be a law against serving
‘old corn bread, The penalty for
violating which should be death by
electrocution, hanging, poison gas
‘and dum-dum- bullets.
Not only does money make the
mare go, but as the democrats re-
flected with regard to Henry Ford, it
has a stimulating effect also on the
donk.
The terribly efficient Henry says
he has been “commanded” to run
for senator as a republican, by a
democrat |
‘The Colonel is not generally
known however as being one of the
two living ex-vice presidents.

Napier, Ex-Register of the Treasury, is at present in Denver, Colo., where she has gone as a representative at the National Federation of Women's Clubs, which is holding its sessions in the beautiful metropolis of the west. Mrs. Napier is well known from one end of the country to the other, as the prime mover in a number of very popular civic enterprises. She worked ardently and successfully in the movement to make the home of Reederick Douglass a national memorial and has been identified with a number of equally important movements among her people.
At home she has identified herself with every progressive move that has made for the betterment of conditions relating especially to the colored people. Since the war her time has been given freely to war work. Her work in getting registered the many women among her people, who because of misunderstanding or misconception of the privilege extended them, to become an active part of a government who hithertoforded had not called into action. They had qualifications as a nation, was a opponent to her ability as an officer, and was put through successfully, mainly because of the indomitable will of a leader who refused to be abashed by mountain high difficulties. In the first and second Liberty loan campaign she worked ardently for the placing of these bonds in the hands of her people and many people who otherwise would not have been sufficiently interested to invest placed their money at the disposal of the government through her efforts. In Red Cross work Mrs. Napier directed and smoothed the many difficulties she many earlier arise in getting the double evidence of her investigation and her hands completed the first red shirt made at a local sewing room by the Colored Chapter of the Nashville Red Cross Organization. Aside from these many activities Mrs. Napier works ardently in her church and is identified socially and financially with many smaller interests that are very essential to the development of an all rounded, well prepared people.

LOCAL—TUESDAY'S HORROR.
The Nashville Chapter marked on Tuesday last the first Day's work in Disaster Relief, a regular part of the work of the American Red Cross operated through the Civilian Relief departments. The occasion of the wreck at Dutchman's Bend, taking a tremendous toll from among the colored workmen on the way to Nashville from Memphis, struck terror to the hearts of all. Mrs. Percy Maddin was on the scene immediately, Mrs. S. Crockett and Mrs. Harry Evans called the Emergency Canteen Service to attention at once. Miss Carrington and her helpers with the public health nurses put into operation all the machinery at their command to begin preparation for the grusome task of identification of mangled bodies, the soothing of frantic inquirers.
The Negro Y. M. C. A. was given cots by the Civilian Relief for men not requiring hospital attention, and letters were written and sent to their next of kin; the Civilian Relief handled the needs of the civilian sufferers, the Canteen Committee taking charge of matters pertaining to military connections. The following were addressed in letters beating a short statement from the man sending the message, and the writing done in an incredibly short time by an emergency worker with Miss Carrington for the afternoon:

An account of the canteen service to troop trains in Athens, the appreciation of the Negro soldiers for services rendered there (the official order being given that race distinction must not be allowed in service to American soldiers) includes the following story:
"As the last train pulled out, an old gravelraider man who knew what war meant and what those boys were going to face, approached the girls of the committee and shyly tendered a half dollar.
"Missus, he said, with a smile like a little child not thoroughly assured that he is exactly right, 'won't you use his here to help the next train load?' He was not a wealthy man

SPECIAL TO THE GLOBE
great Sunday School and B. Y. meeting is planned to meet at the First Baptist Church, 8th Ave., Nashville, Tenn., July 17-21, 1918. The slogan is $1,000.00. The Executive Board of the State Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. Convention met with the Macedonia Baptist Church, Jackson, Tenn., Rev. S. B. Burnett, pastor, and staged one of the greatest meetings in the history of the church. The Board realized with all of the young men of draft age being called in the colors, and that we are giving our country the very flowers of youthhood of the race, to help win the war for a world wide democracy, the principles for which the Baptist stands for; a Government in which the power is invaded in all the people. In giving to our country these men, among them are some of the best prepared men of the race, young men of high Christian charac-

That fifty cents would have provided many small comforts for him; comforts which others would deem necessities, perhaps. Yet inspired by what he saw the 'Red Cross ladies' doing for the boys of his race, and the spirit and dignity and fellowship accompanying the service, he gave what he had, and apologized for not having more to give."
The editor of this column has a theory that the man of that type is not "fooled;" he has lived so close through all his experiences of war of other days, and since—to fundamentals, that he has a spiritual discernment. He knew those women had the right spirit, and the Nashville Public quotes him here because of a belief that testimony from his type is reliable; it is of the soul!
District of Columbia Chapter
The sum of $22.50 realized from a benefit luncheon given by a colored woman whose husband is in military service, has been donated to the Home Service Section of the American Red Cross, according to Mrs. Walter S. Ufford, executive secretary of the District of Columbia Home Service Section of the American Red Cross.
"You were good to me when I was sick and I want to do something for the others now that I am able," was the way the woman expressed her desire to help. "After the woman's husband volunteered, the extra work caused a complete breakdown," said Mrs. Ufford, "and tuberculosis developed. Treated in the early stages she rapidly improved and determined to help the Red Cross. This is the second contribution that she has given to us as proceeds from benefit luncheons that she has conducted. She has also given a contribution for the soldiers' tobacco fund."
Chattanooga Chapter Auxiliary.
The woman who is head of the colored Red Cross work in Chattanooga, Tenn., is an enthusiastic and efficient worker in all war-reuer agencies, according to Bishop Lambuth, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South Her father, who is a Negro of wealth had donated fifty head of cattle and sheep to the American Red Cross. The proceeds of the sale of the cattle and sheep will be used for the furtherance of work in the state and for the purchase of Red Cross supplies.
"FAST BLACK—WON'T RUN."
The following serious anecdote is told by a Government official just back from France: "To one encampment where there were 5,000 Negroes, Gen. Pershing sent word that he wanted 1,500 men for a particular dangerous feat. So they lined up the 5,000 and asked every man who was willing to volunteer to take one step forward. The whole 5,000 stepped one step forward—and they had to select the 1,500. Then the men shouted the slogan: "Fast black—won't run!"
ter. The people of this country ought to doff their hats to Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, the National Secretary of the B. Y. P. U. and Rev. H. A. Boyd, the National Secretary of the Sunday School Congress. These men are giving their lives in trying to raise our young people to a higher standard in Christian activity. They have sown better than they know, for we have young missionaries in all of the camps, who are conducting Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. and reaching men that we know not of. We ought to rejoice over this mact, and be encouraged to come to the convention with renewed vigor. We hope that every Baptist Sunday school school and B. Y. P. U. inville and throughout the State will represent this year, forgetting the things that are behind us. Let us sorrell our forces for education and Mission. Every Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. is asked to send $10.00 for Education and Mission. Let there be no slackers.
Nashville is preparing a hundred voices to render music for the occasion, on Sunday there will be a musical contest, all are invited to attend every session.

Should any one find it, please return it to him on W. Market St., and be rewarded. The 4th was a big day among the colored people of Fayetteville. The members of St. Paul A. M. E. Church gave a picnic in Morgan's Park, which was a success, many people from ajacent towns mortored over to Fayetteville. The Mt. Zion Baptist Church had a baptizing on last Sunday, four people were baptized and added to the church. The Mt. Zion Baptist Church was very fortunate in securing Rev.

Dear Friends: I lived in Tennessee for eight years and conducted a prosperous business while there, although not knowing then what I know today, was not looking for the good class of my people and mingled among the class that has caused me to weep and not knowing what good work that you of my race are doing, it makes me rejoice. Yes, Ymakes me look to the God of heavens to fix me so when the time comes that I can come into the world again and try life over again, I will know what life means to a man. I am in the "Dark World" alone, God is my hope and heaven shall be my home. I am trying to bring this great mass of men to the light. When your paper comes to me, you have there are some that are unable to subscribe for it) I am glad to let them have it and tell them about it and what you are doing among "Our Race."
I want the world to know that I am a "prisoner," who found Christ, and when I get out into the world again. "Christ's Word will I carry until I die."
I am a presser and barber by trade. I am thankful that I am allowed to work at the pressing trade.
On June 30, 1918, Prof James H. Lyons, of the Kentucky State Normal Institute and students, ten in number, visited us. We were inspired by their vocal ability in their rendition of many sons. The feature of their visit was the recitation by one of the ladies of one of her self-composed poems entitled, "Ode to the Heart of Christ," a rare tree, the hearts of our fellow-inmates as her words sank deep into our hearts.

FEDERAL LAW AGAGINST LYNCH INGS.
In The House of Representatives.
The House had under consideration the report of the committee of conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the amendments of the Senate to the bill (R. R. 758) to amend section 3, title 1, of the act entitled "An act to punish acts of interference with the foreign relations, the neutrality, and the foreign commerce of the United States, and for other purposes," approved June 15, 1917.
Mr. DYER. Mr. Speaker. I am in favor of this legislation and all necessary laws that are needed to produce law and order in the United States. The whole citizenship of America should aid in maintaining law and order and not permit mobs violence in any place. We set a poor example for our soldiers and sailors that are sent to France to destroy tyranny and oppression there when we at home tolerate lynchings and attacks upon persons and property without regard to law. This country alone stands in shame and disgrace before the civilized bar of public opinion in that it has for years tolerated lynchings. The lynching and murder of hundreds of colored people at East St. Louis a short time ago and the lynching of Praeger last month at Collinsville, III., horrible
and disjraceful as they were, are but instances of thousands of a similar nature just as bad that have occurred in this country annually in past years.
On April 8 I introduced a bill designed to protect citizens of the United States against lynching in default of protection by the States. When it is taken up by the Judiciary Committee of the House for consideration I shall offer some amendments to perfect in details, and then I will ask to have it reported to the House and passed by the Congress, so that it may become a law at an early date. I believe its enactment into law and enforcement will result in wiping out for all time to come the most damnable crime known to civilized man. Since and before I introduced this bill I have received many strong independent opinions of its provision to the public conscience of America is now fully aroused to its necessity. The States can not be depended upon to do their duty in all instances. Gov. McCall of Massachusetts, on April 10 last, in discussing lynchings, said:
The brutality of lynching does not at all surpass its cowardice. Nothing more contemptibly cowardly can be imagined than for a crowd of armed men to seize a single, unarmed man and put him to death. If such cowardice could be regarded as distinctive of a nation, no amount of heromism on the part of its soldiers in the field could make atonement for it. There has been quite too much talk in our politics, even before the war, of hanging people to lamp-posts. The spirit of lawlessness has received an impluse from men who should be the leaders and teachers of the people. The first duty upon us, after supporting to the utmost our soldiers and our allies, is sternly to the barons, baronets and barons of lawlessness that they too often disgraced our country. The Attorney General of the United States, on the 16th of April last, in an address to the executive committee of the American Bar Association at Richmond, Va., spoke in the same vein when he said:
We must set our faces against lawlessness within our own borders. Whatever we may say about the causes for our entering this war, we know that one of the principal reasons was that lawlessness of the German nation—what they have done in Belgium and in northern France, and what we have reason to know they would do elsewhere. For us to tolerate lynching is to do the same thing that we are condemning in the Germans. Lynch law is the most cowardly of crimes. In invariably the victim is unarmed and the men who lynch are armed and fainting. It is a depolarizable thing under any circumstances, but at this time, above all others, it creates an extremely dangerous condition. I invite your help in meeting it.
I have recently made an investigation to get some idea of the number of people who have been lynched in the last three years, and I find a record in 1915 where there were 43 white and 49 colored lynched. Most of the white men lynched were Mexicans. In 1916 I find the number to be 8 white and 51 colored, and in 1917, 2 white and 44 colored. Of the total number for these three years lynched, I find them charged with different crimes and offenses, but in one-tenth of the cases was there a charge of that crime which some people consider lynching specially appropriate. The horribility of lynchings and mob violence is evident to all decent and civilized people. Congress should put an end to it, since the States in any cases are unable to do so the bill (H. R. 11279) which I have introduced on this subject is as follows: A bill H. R. 11279) to protect citizens of the United States against lynching in default of protection by the States.
Be it enacted etc., That the putting to death within any State of a citizen of the United States by a mob or riotous assemblage of three or more persons openly acting in concert, in violation of law and in default of protection of such citizen by such State or the officers thereof, shall be deemed a denial to such citizen by such State of the equal protection of the laws and a violation of the peace of the United States and an offense against the same.
Sec. 2. That every person participating in such mob or riotous assemblage by which such citizen is put to peath, as described in section 1 hereof, shall be deemed guilty of murder and shall be liable to prosecution and, upon conviction, to punishment therefor, according to law, in any court of the United States having jurisdiction in the place where such putting to death occurs.
Sec. 3. That every county in which such putting to death as described in section 1 hereof occurs shall be subject to a forfeiture of not less than $5,000 nor more than $10,000, which may be recovered by action therefor in the name of the United States against such county for the use of the dependent family, if any, of the citizen so put to death; and if none, for the use of the United States, which action shall be brought and prosecuted by the attorney of the United States for the district in which such county is situated in any district court of the United States having jurisdiction therein. If such forfeiture is not paid upon recovery of judgment therefor, such court shall have jurisdiction to enforce payment thereof by extent or levy of execution or payment of judgment or may compel the levy and collection of a tax therefor, or otherwise compel payment thereof by mandamus or other appropriate process; and every officer of such county and every other person who disobeys or fails to comply with any lawful order of the court in the premises shall be liable to punishment according to law as for contempt and to any other penalty provided by law therefor.
Sec. 4. That every State or municipal officer having the duty or power of preservation or conservation of the peace at the time and place of any such putting to death as described in section 1 hereof, who, having reasonable cause to believe that the same is being or is to be attempted, neglects or omits to make all reasonable efforts to prevent the same, and every State or municipal officer having the duty or power of prosecuting criminal offenses at such time and place who neglects or omits to make all reasonable efforts to prosecute to judgment under the laws of such State all persons participating in such mob or assemblage as described in section 1 heret, except such, if any, as have been or are held to
answer thereof in a circuit court of the United States, as provided in section 2 hereto, shall be deemed guilty of an offense against the United States and shall be liable to prosecution therefor in any district or circuit court of the United States having jurisdiction in such place, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment not exceeding five years or by fine not exceeding $5,000 or by both such fine and imprisonment.
Sec. 5. That every State or municipal officer having the custody within a State of a citizen of the United States charged with or held to answer for any crime or offense who suffers such citizen to be taken from his custody by a mob or riotous assemblage of three or more persons openly acting in concert in violation of law with the purpose of putting such citizen to death or inflicting bodily violence upon him in default of protection of such citizen by such State or officers thereof, shall be deemed guilty of an offense against the United States and shall be liable to prosecution thereof in any district court of the United States having jurisdiction in the place where the same occurs, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment not exceeding five years or by fine not exceeding $5,000, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
Sec. 6. That any prosecution for either of the offenses defined in sections 2, 4, or 5 hereof, and in any action for the forfeiture imposed by section 3 hereof, every person who has participated in lynching or in the tion of great bodily violence upon any person without authority of law, and putting to death of or of the offender, person who entertains or has expressed any opinion in favor of lynching or in justification or excuse thereof, or whose character, conduct or opinions have been or are such as, in the judgment of the court, may tend to disqualify him for the impartial and unprejudiced trial of the cause, shall be disqualified to serve as a juror; and the attorney for the United States in such action or prosecution shall be entitled to make full inquiry thereof and to produce evidence thereof and to deny person possession or any other tort touching his qualifications on the ground that he may thereby criminate himself shall be disqualified as aforesaid.
Some people and some writers seem to think that such a law would not be constitutional. I differ with them in regard to this. The fourteenth amendment of the Constitution says in part: Nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, pr property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law. Congress has the power to enforce this provision of the fourteenth amendment.
The equality clause of the fourteenth amendment forbids the States to deny to any person within their jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. This clause is judicially held to confer immunity from any discrimination as a Federal right. The protection which the State extends to one person must be extended to all. It does not forbid discrimination merely in the making of laws, but in the equal protection which the laws are designed to afford. Forbidding the State to deny equal protection is equivalent to requiring the State to provide it. Equal protection s withheld if a State fails to provide it, and the guaranteed immunity is infringed. The constitutional requirement may be violated by acts of omission no less than by acts of commission. The omission of the proper officers of the State to furnish equal protection in any case is the omission of the State itself, since the State can act only by its officers. (Tenn. v. Davls, 100 U. S., 257, 266; Strauer v. W. Va., U. S., 303, 306, 310; Vav. v. Rives, 100 U. S., 303, 318; Ex part Vav., 100 U. S., 339, 345; U. S. v. Harris, 166 U. S., 629, 639; Civil liberty against race or color prejudice a right, a legal right, under the constitutional amendment?
The act of Congress of March 1,
1821. *18* Start. par. 3, p. 338), enacts
1821.
No citizen possessing all other qualifications which are or may be prescribed by law, shall be disqualified from service as grand or petit juror in any court of the United States or of any State, on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude; and any officer or other person charged with any duty in the selection or summoning of jurors, who shall exclude or fall to summon any citizen for the cause aforesaid, shall on conviction thereof, be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and be fined not more than $5,000.
This was held to be constitutional in the case of Ex Parte Virginia, supra. The court laid stress upon the provisions of the fourteenth amendment, especially:
No state shall make or enforce a law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States. * * * Nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law.
And upon the last section, which gives Congress the power to enforce its provisions by appropriate legislation.
One of the privileges or rights granted the colored man by this amendment in citizenship; another is that no State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; another is, nor shall any State deprive any person of life.

liberty, or property without due process of law; another is, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
If a county judge can be punished for refusing to draw his jury so as to include any of the Negro race, and if exclusion of Negroes from the jury list is sufficient to deny equal protection of the law to a defendant who is to be tried by a jury to be drawn therefrom, the question arises as to why may not the Federal authority protect one of its citizens while in confinement or custody awaiting trial by a jury with the composition of which it has exercised material power?
Why is not a refusal to put into operation the laws against lynching as much within the jurisdiction of Congress as is the refusal to obey a State law by a judge in drawing a jury?
If Congress can punish a judge for refusing to include any Negroes in the jury list for the purpose of trying a Negro, why can it not punish a sheriff for refusing to protect a Negro while awaiting trial?
If Congress has the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions which prevent a State from taking life and liberty or property of its citizens by due process of law, why may it not determine that in order to fulfill this guaranty it may make the sheriff directly amenable to
urisdiction in such matters:
The Supreme Court has said:
The equality of the rights of citizens is a principle of republicanism. Every republican government is in duty bound to protect all its citizens in the enjoyment of this principle if within its power. The duty was originally assumed by the States, and it still remains there. The only obligation resting upon the United States is to see that the States do not deny the right. This the amendment guarantees, but no more. (United States v. Cruikshank, 92 U. S., 542, 555.)
The power in the right of the Federal Government to see that the States do not deny any person the right to due process of law, and to see that they do not deny him the equal protection of the law will be construed to be equal to the task. No one of us dare say that the limit of this power has been reached. No person who genuinely believes in the necessity for the exercise of State rights in full vigor will desire to tempt the Federal oGovernment to the full awakening of these latent powers. If the States fail to give adquate protection, how shall the Federal Government exercise its power to fulfill the guaranty of the fourteenth amendment?
The amendment itself says that this shall be done by appropriate legislation? Manifestly Congress in the first instance, finally the courts. The States lagged in the making of adequate pure-food laws. The result is that this is now nearly entirely regulated by federal Government. The States did not meet the narcotic-drug nuisance; the result is that the Federal Government is now reaching down into the daily lives of the citizens in this respect to a degree which would have been thought impossible a few years ago.
Congress has exercised its rights in enacting legislation with reference to child labor in the various States. It has done likewise with reference to intoxicating liquors. If Congress has felt its duty to do these things, why should it not also assume jurisdiction and enact laws and mob violence? are the rights of property, or what a citizen shall drink, or the ages and condition under which children shall work, any more important to the Nation than life itself? I believe that Congress has ample power to enact the legislation that I have recommended. I believe it would stand the test of the courts and be a great blessing as well as aid in wiping out the greatest blot upon the honor of the American Nation.

Biographical Sketch in Ohio Wesleyan Quarterly—Weil Known Urbana Educator Receives Honorable Mention in College Paper.
The Ohio Wesleyan University Alumni Quarterly of April, 1918, issue contained the following tribute to Prof. E. W. B. Curry, of Urbana:
E. W. B. Curry, Ex. 194.
The doors of Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, O., have always been open to all, regardless of race, color or creed. Among the few colored students who have come to us, Prof. E. W. B. Curry, president of the Curry Normal and Industrial Institute, Urbana, Ohio, stands out as the most prominent. He was born on a street, in a log house in Delaware St. He graduated from the high school and Michael College and spent nearly four years in Ohio Wesleyan, during that time reading, law under Hon. F. M. Marriott and Judge E. Wickham. He worked as a laborer hod carrier and janitor, to make his way.
When a boy seventeen years old, January, 1889, during his senior year in high school, he rented a shed kitchen on David street, Delaware, Ohio, and founded the now Famous Curry Institute. The kitchen school was fitted up with $6.50 worth of second-hand furniture. The cost was $60 cents per month, and Elmer Curry, the teacher, picked up coal in the Hocking Valley Railroad Yards to keep his school room warm. He had three students the first year, and they were men of advanced years; ex-soliders of the Civil War and ex-slaves. Since that, over two thousand students from all parts of the United States and Canada have enrolled in Curry Institute. In Curry Institute, they have graduated, and are doing excellent service in all honorable walks of life.
The Curry Institute, Urbana, Ohio, is incorporated under the Jaws of Ohio, not for the profit, and is managed by a board of directors, selected from some of the most successful white business men of the city. The Institute offers courses in English, Normal, Music, Commerce, Bible Training and Industrial Arts. It is known as "The Tuskegee of the Jaws" because the faculty numbers from eight to ten defined. Christian colored men and women, graduates of the best colleges and universities and institutes of the country. Miss Hannah M. Pierce of the Deaconess Home, Circinnati, O. was principal of the Delaware high school when Elmer Curry graduated. She gave the first books for the shed kitchen school. Miss Pierce spent two days in Urbana as guest of the school during the commencement in June. She delivered the principal's address to the Central Hall, a modern building of fourteen class rooms, erected on the Curry Farm, which will cost—completed and ready for service—thirty thousand dollars.
Judge E. E. Cheney, Urbana, a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University, served as a member of the Curry board of directors for several years. General Warnock, a former trustee of Ohio Wesleyan and citizen of Urbana, speaks in the highest terms of the good work done at Curry and has been liberal in his views. He presents pastor of the First M. E. Church, Urbana, is in touch with the Curry Institute and commends in the strongest terms the work of Prof. Curry and the Institute.
Professor Curry is an eloquent orator and an evangelist, of power. He has had years of experience as a temperance orator in the great state campaigns against the saloon. He is giving his whole life without reserve to the community. His school has very little interest and is supported by personal donations and the income from his lectures, evangelistic campaigns and sale of his own works of literature.
Ohio Wesleyan Alumni can help this brother and his work through openings for lectures and addresses on the Progress of the Freedman, Temperance, or General Lines. Prof. Curry, sometime ago, delivered an address for the Ohio Wesleyan University Y. M. C. A. Several members of the faculty were present: Prof. Davels, Prof. Miller and Prof. Hornell, and they join in pronouncing his work as a platform man par excellent. The school at Urbana is in need of money to finish Central Hall and erect a dormitory for boys, for endowment, and to pay current expenses. A man who doing and can do such great work should not be hindered for the lack of funds.
NOTE—Funds are needed for current expenses—Endowment and Buildings. Speaking engagements are solicited. Address—
HANDSOME GIFT TO CURRY INSTITUTE.
The Curry Normal and Industrial Institute, Urbana, Ohio, has been remembered by a friend to the colored people in the way of a gift which will mean $15,000 for the school.
A white lady by the name of Miss Ella Dunn in West Virginia became interested in the great work of Professor Curry several years ago through his temperance campaigns. During her life-time she was a regular contributor toward the Institute. She died in April, 1917, providing in her will the sum of $6,000, with one-half of what remains after the legatees have been paid for the Curry Institute. At a low estimate it will be $7,500 from the will and the same half of what remains after the legatees have been raised by friends, making $15,000 for Curry. This will complete Central Hall and some building erected on the Curry some time ago now ready for the inside finish, heating plant and light and furniture. The building ready for work will stand at $30,000. Central Hall contains fourteen rooms, of which twelve are for classes, and trades with office and room for heating plant.
Over two hundred students can be accommodated in this building. On the third floor in the chapel, music room, historical and relic room and library.
The Institute must have a dormitory to house the large number of students who have been turned away in the last few years, owing to the lack of proper accommodations. Robert C. Gotwald, architect, has drawn the plans for the dormitory which will cost in two sections $5,000 to $40,000. Cost is expected for $20,000. With this building, Central Hall and the present outfit, of Curry the school can double its capacity. Here is an opportunity for some good friend to start the funds for the dormitory and thus increase the usefulness of a school that has

afforded industrial training to over two thousand worthy young men and women during the nineteen years of its history.
Professor Curry will be very grateful for donations in any amount, either for buildings or current expenses.
LOANS TO OUR ALLIES.
With recent loans of nearly $16,000,000 to Greece and $11,000,000 to Belgium, the aggregate loans made by the United States to our allies now amount to practically $6,000,000,000.

SILVER.
Sixty-four million silver dollars have been melted into bullion by the United States Treasury, most of which has been exported to India. Fifty-eight million dollars of silver certificates have been withdrawn from circulation and destroyed as the silver on which they were secured was melted down. The Treasury still holds 426,000,000 silver dollars, against which $390,000,000 in silver certificates are outstanding. New Federal reserve banks notes of the denomina-

Longville, La. July 8—One of the largest and most successful sessions of the New Light Association and its auxiliaries has just closed in this city. They met with the First Baptist Church of Longville, Rev. E. W. Kagler, D. D. pastor. The auxiliaries connected with the Association are the Sunday School, the B. Y. P. U., and the Woman's Department. Quite a number of visitors were in attendance among them, being Rev. H. B.
N. Brown, D. D., of Alexandria, La., and Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, Secretary of the Sunday School Congress of Nashville, Tenn. Rev. Mr. Boyd delivered the special address on Thursday night, July 4. He was introduced by the Moderator, Rev. Mr. Fontlierro. The address was patriotic and dealt with the denominational advancement. Every department of the Association, this section, reports an annual meeting of the year. It was agreed at the Association, among a number of the Ministers, that a large delegation would go

Among the well known Nashville
people who met their death in the
eatastrophe on the N.C, and St. L.
Railroad on Dutchman's Grade, seven
and one-half miles. from Nashville,
was Maj. George Hall, of the Uniform
Rank, Knights of Pythias, who was
on the outbound train. Hundreds of
people of Nashville were acquainted
with Maj. Hall, who was regarded as
one of the most popular men of the
fraternal circles, His record in
bringing the Uniform Rank from ob-
scurity to a national importance
placed him in high esteem. It was
at St, Louls, Mo,, last August, during
the Suprenie Encampment that he
Aistinguished himself as a tacticlan
in militery art. But for more than
fifteen years his great attention to
the development of the Uniform
Rank has attracted wide spread at-
‘tention, His family is also well
‘known, as he had a daughter to grad-
uate from the High School only. this
bast year, While not born in Nash-
ville, he has lived in the eity for a
number of years and had been in the
employ of the N.C. and St. L. Rail-
road for a considerable length of
time.
