D., president of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, postponing their meeting that was to have convened at Dallas on the 23rd inst., until the week of Nov. 20th. The postponement of the meeting, according to Dr. Campbell's statement, was made on account of the prevailing epidemic. The convention officials of the state are trying to cooperate with the health authorities in checking the spread of the disease. Dr. Campbell said: "I have notified the brethren of our convention that we will hold the meeting overember the 20th instead of meeting next week as was first intended. The people of Dallas have everything arranged for the entertainment of the delegates, the chorus was ever on the grounds and the chorus had been properly drilled and rehearsed; but arrangements have been made to allow all this to go over until the 20th day of November." It is also learned that the national guests who were to be present at the meeting were been notified to allow their engagement to allow with the postponement of the meeting.

The national representatives and special guests as well as to the Baptists throughout the state. The interest in our meeting will not be lessened, nor will the attendance be reduced by this postponement. It is our purpose to have a large gathering and to do equally as much for missions and education." MRS. ELLA SAUNDERS DEAD. Nashville, Globe I want to say something through your paper about an old colored woman who died in this city Sept. 29th, 1918. Her name was, Ella Saunders. She was raised by Mrs. Saunders, the mother of the late Narcisa Saunders. Mrs. Saunders was the wife of Ex. Gov. Brown of Tenn. We did not know the real age of this old colored lady, but from all appearances and indications she must have been well up in eighty. For twenty or more years she was a cook in the family of my brother, W. P. Hood, who died about eight years ago. She was living with them at the time of his death, after which she went to live with my niece, Mrs. Wilbur Murray of Waverly place. There she died and went to her long eternal home. This old lady was a model woman, she was an old time woman in every sense of the word. She lived enjoyed the Old Time Religion." She was truly and devoted member of the Missionary Baptist Church on Hawkins Street of which Church Rev. Jack Harding is the pastor. Her funeral service was held at that church and the service was conducted by Rev. Harding her much loved pastor. We want to say to him, that when aunt Ella died, he lost a true friend, and the church a devoted member. Her heart was there, her mind was there and all that she possessed was thereat that church. Her friends all say, that they are of the opinion that aunt Ella gave up all that she had for the cause she so dearly loved. She did not love this world neither the things that are in the world, and thereby she proved that the love of God was in her heart and that God dwelt in her and with her and help, her and kept her as the "Apple of God" and Aunt Ella so familiarly known by all her friends gone from us, she lived out her days and they were well spent in the love and service of her Master, whom every act of her life proved that she loved above her chief joy. She is gone to live with Jesus, her Savior and Redeemer. Her life is hid with Christ in God, and when Christ who is her Sailour shall appear, then, she with all the redeemed family of God, out of every kindred, tongue and people, shall appear with Him in glory. For this she anxiously looked, for this she so much desired, and some sweet day to her. God will satisfy her every desire as He will do all oth's who hope in His mercy through Jesus Christ, an amply glad that I can have a faithful servant whom we all loved. She was a true friend, a kind and helpful comfort to many who will long remember her. May God in His rich, free and unmerited grace, visit us all in His love pity and tender mercy and prepare us, as He did her to depart out of this world in the triumphs of a life of joy and peace. Lord Jesus Christ and die and go home to God, there to live in peace and joy in all eternity. C. M. HOOD. Bucld Court. 30 Ave. N. NASHVILLE GLOBE. CHURCHES WILL NOT OPEN SUNDAY. It was learned through the health department that Dr. Hibbett announced that it would not be advisable for the churches to hold their services Sunday, and that they were called upon to make another sacrifice in order that the dreaded, epidemic reported so prevalent throughout the country, this order has effected nine-two churches in the city with an approximate membership of over twenty thousand communicants. Every denomination is represented in this list of churches, but reports are coming in that the pastors are making the noble sacrifice and that not one has entered a protest, notwithstanding it being a protest with unity with the ministry of the pastor's salary. Even the Ministers' Conferences have been postponed, and the preachers seem to be lending their fullest support in every way possible. FIRST ST. LOUIS NEGRO KILLED IN FRANCE.

He and nine others stepped back in the trench and thus escaped the direct effect of the bomb. All but 10 in that part of the trench were killed or injured. Jackson and the others carried the men to a Red Cross hospital. Mustard and the others chemicals in the bomb got on his clothing. When relieved from duty he went to sleep. When he awoke he found that the chemicals had eaten through the cloth and blistered his body, inflicting burns of a very serious nature.

Thousand Dollars is the sum total of the Fourth Liberty Loan bonds subscribed by the Negroes' of Nashville in the drive that is to close out on Saturday," declared the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, the chairman of the Fourth Liberty Loan Committee that was organized in the Y. M. C. A. building last Sunday to help Nashville and this district to go "over the top" by as large figures as their financial strength will permit. "While the final total is an approximation, it is based upon the information that has been obtained from time to time and from place to place where the Campaign Committee has gone in search of pledges. The Negroes were called in at the eleventh hour, so to speak, from place to place when the matter was quietly before them and our men understood that they were called in to help the government win the war by making a big success of the Liberty Loan drive, every one of them volunteered and a Campaign Committee or nine augmented by the officers elected have put their hearts and souls into the work, and I am certain that no nobler sacrifice has been made than that evidenced in the total amount subscribed by our people of the city. There are a number of our men who could have been more liberal and more patriotic in the amount subscribed, but I am not the judge and I am not the judge and every one of them know their financial ability," declared Mr. Boyd at a meeting held at noon in the Y. M. C. A. building. The organization of the women has been working tremendously hard and the three teams have conducted a most friendly rivalry with astonishing success. They have been able to make arguments to the disinterested, showing the advantage of a Liberty Bond, and in a quarter of the city the Negroes have represented, even to the extent of personal sacrifices in lending to the government all their means. Nashville is going "over the top" is declared to be large due to the extent of personal sacrifices. Some criticism, has been indulged in, according to rumors on the street, about the tight-chested attitude of some of our so-called leaders, and it was rumored this week that some said they were not willing to invest in Liberty Bonds because the returns were too small. This, however, had no effect upon the work of the committee and the organization that was perfected to put the loan over, as no capital was made of it and the masses who contributed and who subscribed with that liberal characteristic of New Yorkers were encouraged. Meeings a noon and at night at the Y. M. C. A. with frequent concerts and public exhibitions helped to put the loan over. At the corner of the Y. M. C. A. building the ladies' committee secured a piano and the services of a quartet and on each night entertainments were given. On Wednesday night nearly $1,000 was subscribed. A committee consisting of Rev. J. C. Caldwell, Mr. J. C. Napier and Mr. Button succeeded in getting at the Philippe and Button Company more than $10,000. The emploiement of the National Baptist Publishing Board in their drive were successful in their $1,000 effort. In fact, it was generally observed that every effort and every individual connected with the effort was successful in putting it over. WEST FAYETTEVILLE. We are glad to have Rev. Bishop back home. He has been traveling very extensively in the west breaking the Bread of Life. Thursday night, October 10th, a party of young people went out to the Mr. Walter's farm for an o'possum hunt.

Women, on to duty, raise the world from all that is low, place high in the social heaven, Virtue fair and radiant bond, lend their influence to each effort that shall raise our native humor, be not fashion glided ladies, be brave whole souled true women.

Mrs. S. C. Westfield; president; Mrs. Myrtle H. Moore, secretary, and Miss Lelia McClelland, treasurer. FAYETTEVILLE. Lagrippie, called influenza, is going through the country by leaps and bounds and leaving many homes in mourning where it passes by, but we are not alarmed at this, for it seems that the ark of the Lord has been moved, Shiloh has been neglected, the ark has no permanent location; it simply has a resting place and nothing more. People don't have that desire for pure, upright living, or true worship that used to actuate the people in bygone days. Even old folks are not as strict on sow and daughter, but they are not as strict on fates as they were in the 60's and 80's. O Jerusalem, how often would we have cared for you as the hen her chickens and you would not let me! See! I will"send pestilence and disease and have you know that I am the Lord. Well, let's get back to the old paths of the faithful in Christ. See if good will not attend our way. Mr. Sid Knott is bringing a second son from camps to be buried this week. Mr. Charlie Bean's wife daughter of Mr. Mingo Hiekman, departed in 1915, has been have closed for two (2) Sundays in succession. Mr. and Mrs. Wood" were here and spent one day with Mr. and Mrs. John Todd Mr. and Mrs. Woods" friends regret that they could not be with them any longer. Mr. James Bonner of Pine Bull leaves today for the camps. He is the nephew of Mr. S. M. Bonner of Molino. Mr. Jodia Buchanan is a reader of the Globe. AVONDALE. There is a great deal of sickness in our community. The disease called the Spanish influenza, oh, it's dreadful. freadful! Miss Hattie E. Winston of Gallatin was the guest of Mrs. Pollie Langford Sunday at Clearview, Mrs. Bettie Lowe of Nashville and Mrs. Sophie Crutchen of Alliance, O., were the guests of Mrs. Emma Taylor Sunday at Shady Chicago, Ill., for four days, Sept. 16th to 20th, 1918, has been the scene of one of the strongest race-rights convention ever held by Colored Americans, and one destined to be historic. For this, thank the National Equal Rights League, Mrs. Ida B. W. Barnett, local chairman, Rev. L. K. Williams, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist church, where sessions were held till Thursday afternoon and Rev. B. J. Prince, pastor of Original Provident Baptist Church, where the convention was concluded. It was the 11th annual meeting of this Colored League. A splendid body of descent presents from 23 states and session after session they deliberaed for the race. The outstanding results are an improved constitution, strong address to the country, a delegation to call on President Wilson to ask Congress to begin democracy here for all Colored Americans, resolutions endorsing woman suffrage, demanding Colored doctors be called as medical officers, that Colored men be line officers and non-commissioned officers of Colored units, a conference with organized labor, rules for local branches, an official pin proposed by Prof. A. U. Craig, and the plan for a National Equal Rights Representative Assembly, by which Colored America can elect peace per sonners to ask for world democracy for Colored America as a war and parcel of the new world alignment. It was a great convention and should lead to great results if supported by the race. The league devoted the meeting to measures whereby world democracy could be secured for Colored Americans, who are taking part in the fight against Germanic autocracy. A delegation, consisting of the Rev. E. W. Moore, Columbus, O., Dr. J. D. Gorbon, Loss Angeles, Cal.; Mrs. Ida Wells Barnett and the Rev. S. R. Gipson, Chicago, Ill.; D. J. Johnson, Trenton, Ark. and Professor A. W. Whale and William Monroe Trotter, Boston, was appointed to call on President Wilson to recommend to Congress measures to remove color prescriptions. The most significant act of the convention was the adoption of a plan to enable the Colored citizens to elect race representatives to lay the cause of their race before the world peace conference at the war's closing in fullness. The league adjusted the new world adjustment. The league proposes a National Equal Rights Congress of the race at Washington on or after Jan. 1, 1919, to which delegates will be elected by leagues or affiliated race bodies, who will select these world peace petitioners. Those organizing Equal Rights Leagues are asked to notify the Cor. Sec., W. M. Trotter, 34 Cornhill, Boston, Mass. The convention thanked the pastors the cause of the race.

Spirit of Cooperation is Excellent Declares Lieut. Paul Berthier, of French Ordnance Engineers. Everyone works and there is a fine spirit of cooperation among the people of France, according to Lieut. Paul Berthier and other officers of the mission of French ordnance engineers in America, where they are engaged in important work for the French Government. Men, women, and children are all gladly doing their part to free the land from the invader, and although long hours are the rule, there is no complaint, for everyone realizes that the task must be accomplished and that only by supreme exertions will it be possible. In the great rush of the German invasion, back in 1814, France, fearing for her very life, summons every man to arms. This was a mistake, for munitions factories were denuded of their skilled workmen and many of their lives in stemming Von Klink's sweep toward Paris. When the realization came that the munitions' factories were hampered and that their men could serve better there than in the army, a problem was presented. For these men were already in the army, and no one left outside except the men past 48 years of age, these physically unfit, and a few great specialists. Even the managers of the shops were in the fighting line. The "work or fight" rule at once therefore, became a reality, for men were sent back from the army to the factories only so long as they could serve better there than in the ranks. If their work proved unsatisfactory, they were promptly returned to their places in the battle line. France has now found a reservoir of unskilled labor among the German prisoners. They are used for heavy work, and Chinese and Senegalese workers have been imported for their needs. Women have shown remarkable adaptability in the skilled trades, and do some really remarkable work in the nauti-tions factories, particularly on shells. The supply of male skilled labor of military age, however, can only be increased by request to the ministry of munitions for the services of men at the front. In many factories wounded soldiers have been employed advantageously on certain work. In practice the rule is that men are not returned to munitions factories unless they have passed their thirty-fifth birthday or have served two full years in the army. In the case of necessary to send men back from the factories," says Lieut. Berthier. "The war is a fact to every man and woman in France. We shall have to stop and think what we shall do when the war is ended. "Everyone works for the war. Think what it means that we have made guns to enable America to enter the fighting earlier than she could have done! Think of the land, factories, the coal矿s, and most of all, the men we have lost. It is only because everyone in France works hard that we can have guns and ammunitions for our allies and our own armies. Although I understand that other types of 75s are manufactured in England and America, I know that at Bourges all the French 75s-guns that have become famous—are made for the French and American Armies. Think what a plant it is that can produce in quantity for several nations!" This tremendous output, according to Lieut. Berthier, is only possible through keeping the factories going 24 hours a day and 7 days in the week. FINEST OF THE ARTS, HOW TO 1.

Some are Nervous When They First Enter the Factories, but the Feeling Soon Wears Off as They Learn Processes. Women who enter the ranks of industry as a result of the war's demands do not want to return to domestic occupations, according to Mrs. Frank Hales, of the Chicago Employment Service Branch, established by the Department of Labor. She says that most of them like factory work very much after they have once be come accustomed to it, although some do not find the transition easy. "When new girls come to the shop they are nervous, sometimes almost frightened," says a Chicago munitions man. "They often break down and weep because of the actual fear that takes hold of them when they first stand before a great machine tool, the light of which they have never seen before and the uses of which they can not conceive. It looks like a veritable monster to them, and the more in earnest a girl is the greater is her temper." But the feeling is purely transitory, due perhaps to want of confidence as much as anything else. The girls quickly master mechanical processes, and prove themselves adept in work requiring manual dexterity. Once they have gained a knowledge of some process and can make themselves useful, they take much pride in their new job and show no inclination whatsoever to go back to domestic service. STUDY AID TO SHELL-SHOCKED MEN. Sixty-Five Young Women Graduates of Special Training Work at Smith Now in Practical Service. Sixty-five young women are undertaking a unique means of proving their value to the country, by beginning a highly specialized type of war work that will eventually mean much to the labor power of the country. They are graduates of the Training School for Psychiatric Social Work at Smith College, Northampton, Mass, and are entitled "shell-shock experts." They will go immediately to clinics in New York, Boston and other cities to begin six months' practical work with nervous patients. They will undertake the economic and physical reconstruction of shell-shock victims, with the idea of making these unfortunate men fit once more for places in industry. It is estimated that eventually 2,000 psychiatric aides can be used to advantage in this work. The Department of Labor is co-operating with the War Department and the Federal Board for Vocational Education in the rehabilitation of disabled soldiers. TRAINING WAR WORKERS IN MASSACHUSETTS. Jackson College Offering Courses to Jackson College Department and Saint Martin's Work. The army, of trained women so urgently needed for the Government's war work will be augmented by the courses that are being given this season at Jackson College, Medford Hillside, Mass., the women's college associated with Tufts. Secretarial work is a feature of the training there. During the summer a special course for copyists and draftsmen was given at Jackson. WOMEN HELP HARVEST CROPS. Groups, Each Under Supervisor and Each Separately Housed, Saved Much Produce for New York Farmers. The bureau of employment of the state Industrial Service of New York, called upon 400 girls and women to assist the farmers in gathering potatoes, harvesting crops of all kinds and general farm work. A number of the workers helped to care for the cranberry crop. Bach woman was expected to serve at least three weeks. The workers during their term of employment lived in groups under a supervisor, a separate house provided for each group. Firm Employing 205 Women Advises Caution in Adding to Women in Industry Unless They Are Protected. One firm, which employs 205 women presented an interesting comment whinasked by the national industrial conference board regarding the advisability of the further employment of women in industry. "The nature of the race depends absolutely upon the moral strength of the women, and if the employer of labor is not of the caliber that builds this moral strength, there is great danger in the employment of women," wrote an executive of this firm. Most employers, the board felt directed although too much consideration to the economic aspect of women's employment, which they found profitable, than to anything else. NINETY PER CENT OF WORKERS GIRLS. Wilkes-Barre (Pa.) Factory Has Only a Few Men Now Engaged in Work For Ordnance Bureau. More than 90 per cent of the employeess of a Wilkes-Barre (Pa.) ordnance plant are girls, it is announced. Recent investigations by the Department of Labor showed generally a high increase in the percentage of women employed in industrial plants during the last few years. TEACHING GIRLS TO SELL TICKETS.

Go in Automobiles Each Morning to the Country to Aid in Harvesting Crops and Packing Fruit. Every morning at 6 o'clock, all summer, Placeen County, Cal., women and girls have been piling into automobiles at their city homes to spin out into the country, where they have rendered splendid service to the farmers in all kinds of agricultural work. The little city of Auburn was practically depopulated during the day for a large part of the summer. Women found employment in packing fruit and boys and irls were much in demand for gathering fruit. NEED WOMEN IN TARPAULIN MILLS. Millions of Yards of Fabric Are Required at Once, and Feminine Workers Are in Demand. Millions of Yards of Fabric Are Required at Once, and Feminine Workers Are in Demand. Mills for the manufacture of tarpaulins, located near Baltimore, are now in need of workers and an appeal for women recruits has been made in the newspapers. Owing to Government contracts requiring millions of yards of the fabric from which tents and covers for Army wagons and trucks are made it has been necessary to increase the output pay for them. Workers are needed at a time when the draft will take away old employees. The shortage of workers has caused looms to be idle now and then and all the time there is the most urgent demand for the Khaki-colored cloth needed by the boys who are winning victories in France. Colored Women in Bureau of Engraving Makes a Record in Currency Rush. Mrs. Anna R. Grant a Negro expert currency examiner, did three persons' work for more than a week during the recent currency rush. More than once she went on duty at 8 a. m., worked all day and all night until 12 the next day, stayed off that afternoon for rest and went on again that night. From July to September she was of greatest assistance to those in charge by relieving other girls. "She is to all in the bureau, regardless of a frace an example of rare efficiency and find spirit," one of her associates said. Mrs. Grant's husband is in France. The Negro girls as a whole in the bureau are satisfactory and are said to complain less than the other girls. Training and Dilution Service, However, Will Keep Watch Over Piecework Rates. While workers in all parts of the United States are giving patriotic service, there are from time to time reports of stalling or slacking in the factories and shipyards. Stories of this sort will multiply in times when competition to make records causes intense efforts, which must be followed by a physical reaction marked by a falling off in production. When asked about actual conditions as despecially their effect on women being introduced into the factories, H. E. Miles, chief of training in the Training and Dilution Service, Depart ment of Labor, said: "Women are making remarkable records in the factories. Most of the new employees have husbands, brothers or sons in the Army, and they bring to their work the feeling that they are working especially for the soldiers who are dear to them. With a tremendous nervous energy, they are able oftentimes to break the records made by the men whose places they fill. "Employers oftentimes have baited their workers to large accomplishment by setting piece prices unintelligently and cutting the prices when they obtained the volume of production they particularly desired and which in these days they must have. The workers know at precisely what point the cut will come. The system often begets ill will that is intolerable. Liberal and intelligent piece prices must be kept wherever the piece system is used, and they must not be cut." HOW EMPLOYMENT MANAGERS ARE TRAINED. Representative of Department of Labor Describes Preparation For Important Branch of Work. The value of training courses for employment managers is outlined by Melville La Marche, a special representative of the United Employment Service, who was sent to take the first course offered by Rutgers University as a graduate. As the closest graduates give the following summary of the Government training courses and their benefits, Mr. La Marche says: "Faced with a growing shortage of man power, industry is coming to realize that its most valuable asset is the skilful and satisfied workers. No longer is the selection and oversight of a plant's personnel to be left to Providence and a ten dollar a week clerk in plants on war work. if the industrial service sections of the Government departments have any voice in the matter. Analyses of failures to keep pace with production schedules have invariably disclosed some disturbing factor directly traceable to the dissatisfaction of individuals engaged on productive work. Labor turnover, cited by Secretary of Labor Wilson as the individualistic strike, has assumed the role of the most plotted material is seriously retarded. "One of the chief remedies at hand is the well organised personal service department, the value of which has been so practically demonstrated in several of the more successful concerns. Indeed, some of these concerns which pioneered in this field drew at NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY OCTOBER 18, 1918. tention to themselves at the outset as 'philanthropists' with more money than good sense. But a glance at the financial statements of these concerns showed that sound business judgment was the actuating motive and that the more liberal policy toward workers paid in dollars and cents. "The force of these conclusions led to the establishment of intensive courses in employment management under the auspices of the Government, the first of which was inaugurated at the University of Rochester. Rochester was chosen, principally because the larger industries there had done a good share of the trial blazing in functionalized employment work. "Shipyards and other war industries were invited to send selected men to the course for six weeks" concentration on the program outlined, the classroom theory presented to be fortified by practical work in the personal service department of Rochester and Buffalo industries. Trained personnel were instructed to laborated in arranging the procedures of the course and came to the university to present their subjects, among which were the following: "Functions and organization of a personal service department. "Labor turnover, causes and how to reduce them. "Character analysis; the science of hiring. "Transfer and promotion; discharge "Following employees' progress in the plant. "Educational work for employees. "Recreational work for employees. "Safety engineering. "Methods of wage payment. "Industrial organization. "Sources of labor supply. "Public employment offices, how to co-operate with them. "Statistics. "Causes of labor unrest. "History of the labor movement. "Twenty-four of the largest concerns now engaged on war work, including 10 shipyards, sent men to the first course, and 24 embryo 'human engineers were graduated in the presence of the members of the National Employment Managers' Association brought together in convention at Rochester in honor of the occasion. "Before graduation the class was warned not to attempt to put into effect at once all the principles advanced, but it is permitted to say that each one carried with him the vision projected so clearly throughout the course, that a functionalized human relations' department in cencern, the head of which is a specialist on a par with the sales manager and the production manager and answerable only to the general manager, offers potential value to industry beyond computation." Workshop in Metropolitan Museum, New York City, Furnishes Models Copied From Ancient Pieces. Perhaps the strangest workshop in the United States is situated in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, where are being produced from pieces of ancient armor models to be adopted and copied for the use of soldiers of the United States Army. A famous French artisan is in charge of the shop, which has been turned over to the Ordnance branch of the Army. Helmets, shields, and breastplates will be made for our soldiers, inasmuch as the war in Europe has brought back into use many discarded corpses and practices of medieval times. Hand-to-hand fighting has caused the adoption of heavy breastplates by the Germans and lighter breastplates by the English, while armored waistcoats are worn by the Italians. All the armies employ steel helmets and trench shoes. Fortunately, the Metropolitan Museum possesses one of the greatest collections of armor in the world. The workshop was established for the purpose of cleaning repairing and restoring the precious pieces assembled with great care from all parts of the world. It happened that included in the collection are 90 kinds of anvils and "stakes," several hundred hammers of different types, and curious shears and other instruments. When the war began, the director of the museum acting with the sanction of the trustees, placed the department of armor at the disposal of the Secretary of War. Simon was carefully worked out by Maj Dean, formerly curator of the department of armor, who went to France to study needs last autumn and since then has been directing the adaptation of the models in accordance with suggestions made by Gen. Pershing. Twenty-five types of arm have been made, so far, in the various factories, in bots varying from 100 to many thousands pieces. These arm defenses include arm and leg guards, which are considered most important, in view of the fact that hospital statics require arm guards and 40 per cent of hospital casualties suffered were leg wounds and 33 per cent arm wounds. THREE FACTORY DISTRICTS ESTABLISHED. Director Clayton, of Training and Dilution Service, Forms Administrative Divisions for Great Work. Manufacturers in all parts of the United States are co-operating with the new Training and Dilution Service of the Department of Labor, which has been established to stimulate production of war supplies by organizing training to increase the competency of wage-earners, and to point out ways for rendering the existing supply of highly skilled workers through dilution. Charles T. Clayton, director of the service, has worked out a plan of organization that divides areas of the United States where munitions are manufactured into districts with a superintendent of training in each district. A close connection is being perfected between the Training and Dilution Service and the production departments of the Government, including the Ordnance, the Quartermaster, the Air Service, the Navy, and other departments, so as to secure prompt action when the contractors or manufacturers encounter difficulties in obtaining workers. So far, Mr. Clayton, who has been engaged in this work only a few weeks, has established three districts. Among these, the Philadelphia district is typical of what is being accomplished. This district, in which are situated plants that produce a large share of all Government munitions, has as its superintendent, F. L. Glynn who developed the training of employees in the Curtiss Airplane Co.'s plant at Buffalo. With eight assistants whom he has brought from various parts of the country Mr. Glynn is developing training in 200 factories in his district, where 75,000 skilled workers are needed without delay. The staff with experience enlistmen in the Army of 2,700,000 men, taken from production, the labor of 8,000,000 additional producers will be required in factories, on farms and on railways. To provide this needed number of workers it will be necessary for manufacturers everywhere to concentrate attention on the rapid training of new employees, who can be rendered efficient by the intensive instruction provided for them, experts being assigned to supervise the vestibule shops or training rooms in which unskilled workers earn good wages while they are preparing for advancement to regular positions in the factories.

Memphis honors him and we are always delighted to stand in his presence and gather in spiration. WOMEN IN INDUSTRY SERVICE FORMED. Government Plans to Meet Changed Conditions Resulting From War Needs of Man Power. Large numbers of women have entered war work and thereby have brought new problems into industry. To solve these problems and to keep in close touch with developments in industry which affect women workers, the United States Department of Labor has established the Woman in Industry Service, the work of which will be largely policy making and administrative, in order not to conflict with the work of other branches of the department's organisation. It is the view of the Secretary that wherever problems affecting both men and women arise, the various services of the Department should act upon them without distinction as to sex. However, the great importance of the employment of women in essential war work and the development of a policy with respect to his employment has led to the formation of the new service. The Women in Industry Service will consider all general policies with respect to women in industry, and will advise the Secretary of Labor as to the policies which should be pursued. It will also keep informed of the work of other divisions of the department as they affect women, and will obtain information on all matters relating to women in industry. The service will also establish association with other governmental departments and with voluntary agencies and societies. For the service is shown by the lack of any effective organization to undertake this work There are three semipublic committees dealing with the problems of women in industry, but none of these has executive power or has authority to do the work that is needed. MUST PLAN FOR CONDITIONS AFTER THE WAR. Edward N. Hurley, Chairman of the Shipping Board, Shows What Must Be Done to Utilize Vessels. Within two years there will be 25,000,000 tons of merchant shipping to be employed, and Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the United States Shipping Board, announces that it is not too early to lock around for cargoes, not only in this country but abroad. "Twenty-five million tons is a lot of shipping" says Mr. Hurley. "In one voyage these ships would carry all the livestock, dressed meats, packing-house products, poultry, game, fish wool, hides, and leather carved on your railroads in one year. In less than five trips they would carry our whole railroad haul of grain, flour, cotton, hay, fruit, vegetables and other farm products. In three and one hail trips all our lumber; in seven trips all our manufactured goods; in sixteen trips all our coal and coke. The total tonnage hauled on our railroads is about 1,200,000,000 tons. "So, amid all his splendid effort in producing equipment to win the war, the American manufacturer must be asked to take thought for to-morrow needs. The need for foreign trade. This might appear like a distraction now something which will take the attention from the supreme duty of war the war. But far from being a distraction, it fits in with war production and war psychology. While our factories and factory employees are building war material to-day, they are also building foreign trade, if we can only see things as a whole and make one factor work with another. "When the businesses sman turns his attention to report trade he looks abroad and thinks of his foreign customer. But foreign trade actually begins in his own factory. He looks abroad and studies such factors as ocean freights, foreign exchange, export packing, and foreign salesmanship. "If he would look into his own factory first, and study factors close at hand, such as labor turnover, wages, manufacturing costs, and efficiency, he would be laying a solid foundation for export trade." HARDWARE CLERKS GOOD FARM HANDS. Already Accustomed to Machinery And Hard Work, They Learn Quickly How Make Themselves Useful. Hardware dealers and clerks make good farm hands. This tip to the farmer in search of help is furnished by the farm division of the United States Employment Service. The man who works in a hardware store knows more about farm machinery, from a hoe to a tractor, than anybody else the farmer can get hold of if he has to hunt for unskilled labor. The hardware man generally has worked long hours. He is used to dirty hands and work clothes. He probably has some muscle, because he is used to handling heavy things. If he is one of the millions of town and city men who grew up on a farm he already knows something about crops and stock. The most important thing to be done to make him a good farm hand, reports from different localities show, is to convince him that his country needs him on the farm as his war services. FACTORY EMPLOYEES TAKE SOLEMN OATH. Thousands Pledge Their Loyal Service as Workers for the War. Thousands of employees of the Recording & Computing Machines Co., of Dayton, Ohio, took part in an impressive ceremony recently. Assembled in an immense mass meeting they solemnly swore allegiance to the flag and to the Constitution of the United States. This pledge was made as workers to whom the Nation looks for important service in the war, and had the sanction of the oath that soldiers take when they enlist in the Army of the United States. Justice H. L. Ferneding of the court of appeals, second judicial district of Ohio, administered the oath which is a follows: "We, the undersigned officers and employees in the Navy division of the Recording & Company Machines Co., Dayton, Ohio, in meeting assembled, do solemnly swear and affirm our allegiance to our flag and to the Constitution of the United States of America; that employed as we are in our respective fields of endeavor in the manufacture of ordance material for the use of the United States Navy in the present world war for humanity's cause, we will not accept defective work, nor reject satisfactory work; nor be wasteful of our time and material and charged as we are with patriotic fervor and love of country, we will address ourselves whole-heartedly to the single idea of doing all we can for the best interests of the United States. "Alive to the responsibilities and duties placed upon us men and women in such Government work, we are also conscious that the product of such labor is as important and essential as active duty at the front, each branch of the public service being equally patriotic and necessary. "In conclusion we indulge the hope, and express the belief, that when peace comes it will be a peace with victory for our cause, and that the equality of all nations in all matters of right and principle will be permanently recognized, whether such nations be strong or weak." When the United States declared war against Germany the Recording & Computing Machines Co. was one of the first to turn its whole force over to Government work. Will I. Ohmer president of the company, concentrated on extensive experimentation aimed at him to supply special needs of the Army. The factories now employ about 8,000 workers, more than half of whom are women. AMERICA'S LABOR PROBLEM GREATEST. New Service of Department of Labor Must Fill Places in Industry of Men Called Into Army. With an Army of 1,750,000 men in France and a Army of more than 3,000,000 including those drilling in the camps of the Nation, with hundreds of thousands of men serving in the Navy and tens of thousands in the Marines, the United States must solve what is perhaps the greatest labor problem ever presented to any Government. This problem is to supply skilled labor to replace the trained men withdrawn from industry by the draft, and at the same time to meet the demands duel to the enormous expansion of manufacturing enterprises made necessary by the war. To aid in its solution the Department of Labor has established a Training and Dilution Service. Charles T. Clayton, formerly assistant director general of the United States Department of Service, head of this new service because of his understanding of industrial conditions and capacity for broad co-operation with both employers and employees. Mr. Clayton has established the Training and Dilution Service by dividing the United States into manufacture plant of a training department intendent of training. It is the plan plants that are engaged on Government to encourage the establishment in certain areas of government contracts. Each district has a super that will supply the growing needs of the factories by a system of instruct form unskilled workers+into skilled workers in the shortest possible time AGENTS-Pressing Combs, Temple Oil, Hair nets, Face Cream, Pure Hair Switches.

The Bethlehem House will have its annual Tag Day, Saturday, Oct. 26, the proceeds to be equally between the kindergarten and the girl's work. It will be remembered that the kinder- garden here after is to be a living monument in memory of the late House Mother, Mother Sallie Hill Sawyer The kindergarten, which is the only free kindergarten in the city is to be wholly supported by the mother Sawyer Memorial Fund. The kindergarten is open every day from 9:12 except Saturday and Sunday, with a trained kindergartner in charge. It is absolutely free to every child in the city from the ages of three and a half to six years. The public is cordially invited to visit at any time. Since the word preparedness has been sounding so clearly upon our ears during the great world war, it causes us to reflect a moment upon the quotation of a wise man, "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." The reflection has developed into a determination to lend our assistance in helping the next generation to be better prepared in bringing about a pure democracy who would dare refrain from lending a hand to a child. The other half of the proceeds is to go for work among girls. The Forward Quest girls' club object is to instill in the girl the idea to constantly go "forward" in her physical, mental and spiritual development in order that she may be best prepared to take her place in the world for good. A girl is known in the club by her own work. She climbs by her own efforts, is given free swing to work out her own life. As a result, she is classified into degrees and known as a Junior, a Path-finder, a Lightbearer. A Star seeker and a Big Sister, respectively. All along in her. Forward Quest from the first degree through to the last, the five points which are known as the Law of the Quest are impressed on her. They are: 1, seek health 2, maintain harmony, 3, follow truth, 4, enthrone love, 5, render service. The motto of the club is "Others." Great stress is put upon "render service." These girls have rendered the following service during the past year: Given $6 toward the Wool Fund for Colored Soldiers, $10. to the Mother Sawyer Memorial Fund $7.15 to the Milk and Ice Fund, $5. to the W.

AUSTIN TO MAKE INDEPENDENT RACE ASKING SUPPORT OF VOTES OF SECOND TENNESSEE DISTRICT PLATFORM TO BE ONE OF LOYALTY-CABLEGRAM FROM SOLDIERS REQUESTS HIM TO MAKE RACE-MANY YET FAVOR HIS ELECTION. Washington, Sept. 30—Representative R. W. Austin will be a candidate for re-election to congress at the November election. His intention to run as an independent candidate against J. Will Taylor, who defeated him in the primary for the republican nomination, was announced today. He will run as the "Soldiers' candidate" and gives as the basis for his action a request which he has received by cable from France, signed by a committee of soldiers headed by Col. Cary F. Spence of Knoxville. "In addition to this call from across the sea, I have had many similar requests from the good people back home," said Mr. Austin, "while the sentiment in Washington is practically unanimous that I should leave nothing undone to keep a military slacker, and a critic of a necessary and vital war measure out of congress." Mr. Austin will leave for home this week and at once enter on his campaign. The contest promises to be a bitter and exciting one. The second district representative will make loyalty the issue and carry the fight into every county. AUSTIN'S STATEMENT His formal statement follows: "France, Sept. 21, 1918. "Bon R. W. Austin, M. C. "Washington, D. C. "We, the undersigned committee of the soldiers of the second district, request that you make the race for congress as we know that you have supported the administration and all war measures.

BRKE, Jacksboro, JAMES C. McGLOTHIN, Oliver CLAUDE R. SMITH, Maynardville, THOMAS E. BASS, LaFollette, CLARENCE CANNON, Lenoir City, WILLIAM F. DICKEY, Knoxville. "Along with the rest of the American people not at home, I owe a duty and a debt to our brave boys now on the firing line which cannot be ignored, and hence I will comply with the wishes of the Second district soldiers as expressed in their cablegram through a committee headed by Col. Cary F. Spence, and be a candidate for congress at the November election, I confidently believe a majority of the people of the district will give me their support as the soldiers' candidate. "Our boys endorse my record in supporting every war measure, all of which were absolutely necessary in order to win the war, and they are unwilling to have as their representative in congress one who publicly admitted he would not have favored one of these vital measures. They stand upon the platform enunciated by Col. Roosevelt in his recent speech to the New York republican state convention, in which he stated that 'No man who is not 100 per cent American is entitled to the support of any party.' We should treat as disloyal any attempt to carry water on both shoulders. No man of lukewarm loyalty should be chosen, no matter what ticket on which he runs. The officers, and privates who make this appeal to me and the comrades they speak for believe the future history of their district should show, beyond doubt of question, that it was RHEUMATISM ACHING BACK BONE PAINS. BLOOD POISON Swollen Muscles, Knots and Aching Joints, Dizziness, Eating Sores, Itching Skin, Risings and Blood Humors Cured by Prescription C-22223 Costs but Little A Message for Race Men and Women It would cost you a large sum to consult a specialist on Rheumatism and Blood Poison, but you can get his prescription at little cost by asking your prescription druggist for the Prescription Number C-2223. It comes in bottles with complete directions for curing yourself at home--giving the dose and advising you what to eat, and so on. If you have Rheumatism in any form, with those terrible agonizing shooting pains, aching bones or joints, Pains in the head, Swollen Joints or Risings, Blood Poison with Itching Skin, Eczema, Old Sores, Pimples., Sore Patches In Your Mouth, Hair Falling out In Patches; then take Prescription C-2223. It is the very medicine you need. C-2223 is a godsend, especially if other remedies or doctors have failed you. C-2223 has cured hundreds of cases, especially the old stubborn kind. It sends a flood of pure, rich blood to the skin surface, healing all sores and stopping all pains and aches. Try it yourself. C-2223 not only purifies the blood, but drains out of your system all the poisons, humors and uric acids that cause the awful pains and sores, also stops that burning itching of the skin, giving anyone a smooth, healthy skin as well as pure rich blood.

B., Memphis, Tenn. in accord with every other loyal district in the United States in refusing to retire and to repudiate a member of congress who by speech and vote, supported all legislation which meant the speedy and victorious prosecution of the war. They know my opponent used my vote for one of these measures to my injury and his profit in certain portions of the district in the recent primary, that his letters and speeches were unpatriotic, if not seditious; that his failure to have his national guard company at LaFollette, which he commanded, ready to be set on fire, not yet like all the rest, but when was mounted out for inefficiency; his refusal to accept a capacity in the Fifth regiment and his advice to its sworn and enrolled members not to serve the WRITE US state and nation, does not make him a suitable or creditable representative in congress for the brave and loyal East Tennessee boys now on the fighting line in France. "They naturally rebel at the thought that while they are offering their lives for the nation, to make us and our children safe and free for all time, he should seek to represent them in congress. Their wishes in this matter should be respected on election day, Nov. 4th. They are entitled to be heard. We can never fully pay them for the sacrifices they are now making for us. SAYS OTHERS REQUEST IT "In addition to this call from across the sea, I have had many simi- lar requests from the good people back at home, while the sentiment in Washington is practically unanimous that I should leave nothing undone to keep a military slacker and a critic of a necessary and vital war measure out of congress; that no higher duty or greater responsibility could rest upon me, and that in such a contest I will have the encouragement and support of a majority of the people of the Second district, who are sealous of the good name and reputation of the district for loyalty, fidelity, and love of country. HINTS AT PRIMARY FRAUD "I appeal from the decision of a primary where 2,700 more votes were returned than were east for Governor Hughes, the late republican candidate for president, with over 4,000 electors absent in the army and navy; a primary in which money and whiskey were used in the interest of my opponent, who openly but in my interest three races until the close of the polls, to the loyal, patriotic people of the district who love liberty cherish freedom, and believe in 100 per cent Americanism. "In taking this step, I respect and honor the wishes of our brave soldiers in France, and believe I thus serve the best interests of the people, and render a patriotic duty to the district, state and nation.

RED CROSS ITEMS By Miss Ethel White, News Staff, Nashville Chapter, A. R. C. LOCAL. A most creditable showing was made by colored students in the Liberty Loan parade last Saturday. The large number from the local schools made a fine impression. Such an evidence of patriotism is an inspiring sight to the public as well as to fellow students who have less enthusiasm and need to be stirred into a quicker sense of duty. Boys who must remain at home have as great a duty as those in the fighting field and it is exceedingly important for them to realize this and to take a stand for their country whenever opportunity arises. One very pleasing touch was the singing as the students marched, it touched the hearers and showed a splendid spirit in the marchers. Remember boys, that as students you have a serious and real duty before you this winter, it is such a high duty that the performing of it becomes a privilege which every one of you should understand. This duty is we may say, a "double-barrelled" one because it gives each the chance of being a wonderful example to other boys who may not be inclined to give the best to their country. He who practices daily patriotism mall the small ways which come up in school life can help along toward winning the war by being a good influence for those around you. This is a mighty good thought to be given. The second step to the gun you student boys are privileged to carry is your duty toward yourself. You must not forget that you are the men of the future and that you must take the place of many who will give their lives in battle. Now is the time for you to so train yourself in mind in body and in spirit that you may fill these places worthily. The soldiers at the front and in the training camps are proving their mettle every day, boys at home will do as well. WALTER S. BUCHANAN SPEAKS IN NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans, La., Oct. 6.—Special—At a monster mass meeting in La-Fayette square last night six thousand white people and as many Negroes cheered to the echo several times as a colored school teacher from Huntsville, Ala., discussed the labor situation and the Negroes part in this war. Governor Pleasants presided and introduced the speaker. Cliff Williams of Mississippi, father of the Loyalty League Idea and Walter S. Buchanan, his colored assistant, were the principal speakers, but Williams gave a large part of his time to the colored man who was certainly able to use it. Oneoking thing about this Negro orator is that praise from the white people does not seem to turn his head. He showed no signs of being in love with himself his whole thought was upon his address which he delivered with powerful effect. Another notable feature is that Buchanan knows how to say what the Negro wants said without offending his white listeners. In reply to the suggestion from a white speaker that God made the Negro black and intended that he should remain so, Buchanan cast a sweeping glance at his many hued colored friends, and then turning to the white people, remarked that some of these good white folks have certainly messed up God's plan. The Negro made many sane observation, calculated to produce better feeling between the races. His whole speech was an inspiration to the laborers of both races and will certainly improve the industrial efficiency of this section. A loyalty league was organized with six colored men on the executive committee.-Huntsville Times. JEANNETTE CARTER APPOINTED First Colored Woman to be Chief of Bureau in the U. S. Department of Labor, has Charge of Housing and Transportation. Washington, D. C., October 14—Miss Jeannette Carter, who has just been appointed Director of the Colored Bureau of Industrial Housing and Transportation, in the U. S. Department of Labor, with many war workers in her Bureau, is one of the most talented and accomplished women the race has produced. She comes of a family of Carters distinguished in law, medicine and business, her brother, William Justin Carter, of Harrisburg, being one of the most successful lawyers in Western Pennsylvania, without regard to race. Miss Carter read law at Howard University, and has made a speciality of Departmental practice for several years. She has been one of the most successful pension attorneys here, and the first of her race to be admitted to practice, appearing before all of the Bureau, including the War Department, Interior Department, Indian, Land and Patent Offices, and is the first colored woman to successfully practice law in this section of the country. In connection with her practise, she was the first colored woman here, to be appointed a Notary Public for the District of Columbia. Miss Carter has become widely known as a newspaper correspondent having been actively associated with several papers of the race during the past four years, and is now the Washington representative of the New York Age. Mor than avail ago, Miss Carter with a few choice women of the race, organized the Woman Wage Earners' Association, of which she is the President, which grew to be a large and influential organization before the declaration of war upon the German allies. As soon as the war broke out Miss Carter offered the services of her Association, and her own personal experience, particularly the U. S. Labor Department, and she has been instrumental in placing a large number of women workers at the disposal of the Labor Department. She was asked to take part in the War Charities Board of the District of Columbia, including all of the charity organizations composed of women in the District of Columbia, and was the only colored organization represented in the joint organization. Miss Carter was upon the committee on organization of the allied charities, and assisted in framing the rules and regulation under which he allied organizations in its membership some of the most distinguished women of the nation residing at the National Capital. As a public speaker Miss Carter is magnetic and forceful and she has achieved much success in arousing our working women to the importance of organizing to protect and promote their interests. She is a young woman of girlish build, long and wiry, and ful of dynamic, nervous energy, with engaging manners and an amiable disposition which has won her a host of admirers here and all over the country, her office in the National Benefit Building, 609 F. street, Northwest, being one of the places which most of the distinguished visitors to the National Capital call before leaving the city. In the distinction which has come to Miss Carter, the space has been signally honored in a woman who has many experiences here in a field where many have failed, and who may be relied upon to promote to the utmost the interests of the race in her official capacity, as she has heretofore, in private station, given unsparingly of her time and means, as above all, she is intensely a race woman.

Tate said that he had been preaching twenty years, but had never experienced a Sunday like this. Rev. Belchey, the new pastor of the M. E.

Both white and black were quite busy looking for him, and about 12 o'clock in the night he was founder under the house asleep with a little pet dog TO GROW LONG, STRAIGHT HAIR There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Soeley's Quinacar is a highly medicated powder that can anise the scalp. It is an excellent food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinacar is the invention of an export chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered 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 Quinacar it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Soeley's Quinacar. Quinacar is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil. Quinacar lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and duffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shamoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasea, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstir or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you on the price and we will mail them to von. Seeby Drug Co. 79 East 130 street. New York City.

MAIN MILL VERY MUCH ALIVE Scientific Management and Co-operation of Workmen Lead to Remarkable Records of Production on War Work. "Every board you cut is a piece in the Kaiser's coffin" is the sign that adorns the bulletin board at a Maine sawmill conducted by the Emergency Spruce Corporation. This mill is supplying lumber for important construction jobs for the War Department, and has delivered already considerably more than 3,500,000 feet of lumber, either as form units or as supports for assembling them. In fact, the mill fabricated 67,000 square feet of lumber, and an additional 49,000 feet was delivered. Specialization, and the standardizing of work by men and the mechanical equipment as well as scientific placing of the machinery to make possible maximum production with minimum effort and waste are responsible in a large measure for the fine showing but the co-operation of the employee stimulated by the bulletin-board sign is perhaps even a greater force. CARS UNLOADED IN QUICK TIME No Demurrage on Nearly 5,000 Cars Which Brought Materials to South Boston Army Supply Base. How industry can be stimulated by keeping freight cars in constant movement is the theme of many railroad officials, who have sounded warnings against delaying cars, in these times of shortage, for loading and unloading A record which is perhaps unique has been made at the South Boston (Mass.) Army Supply Base according to informational briefs by the Department of Labor, which has not one car of the thousands that had brought materials to the base has been delayed beyond the time allowed by the rail roads. Cement, ashes, bricks gravel gravel lumber, piles, sand, steel, rails, and ties made up the bulk of the loads, and nearly 5,000 cars were handled. FIREMEN BEÇOME ICEMEN.

Secretary, then went to Springfield, Mass., where he received special training and sailed some time ago with a unit of workers to do service with the red triangle in its war work. THE RIGHTS OF A MAN. As I was lying upon my bed last night in a deep slumber, this subject fell upon my mind so heavily until I was awakened. I began at once to consider and think deeply into its significance, and, behold, it still lingers with me. It men would consider the rights of others conscientiously it would ameliorate most of our difficulties and most of our troubles. This is something the masses do not understand. Nor do they consider; thus it has come to the place where the rights of men are not considered in the light of culture and refinement. After all, man is king of mind. A man has rights regardless of race, color or previous condition which all men should recognize because all men are human. The only beings that can sympathize with man are God and man himself. I go a step further and argue that the rights of man should be respected, whatever the difficulties are. One should consider 'what an awful thing it is to take from a man his reason, his opportunities and get in the way of his ability to attempt to do what he can do. Not only this, but many things that Divinity has allowed, do. This was the spirit of slavery, and it the spirit of autocracy today. The usefulness of man should not be snatched from him while he is kneeling at the door of opportunity and pleading for a chance to make a plea in his great soul for a chance. When he is longing for a place to carry forward the great work of life. But when he is hindered from taking the part of a man, it is almost beyond the power of human endurance. Until this old world will come to the knowledge that all men are brethren, there will always be wars and rumors of war. Be it known that all men came from the bosom of one great mother and father. This is true for they are all now in a great rush to their eternal home. They go sweeping into the great beyond in the presence of the Almighty to be judged alike. In the political world men's rights are snatched from them ruthlessly. This is caused by sin and ingrudience, greed and unnecessary graft. This should not be so. Because such actions are without ideals to preferment nor do they make any discrimination in preferment. The man who opens his bosom and opens her bosom to feed all mankind; to feed the billions of all the nations of the earth, as well as the beasts of the fields and the birds of the air. Thus all creeping things partake of her wealth. This shows the kindred and relationship of man to man. Even the gold and silver and ore and all material elements have been made for man's good. Why should one man or nation snatch from another that which God has given? No wonder we have wars and troubles of all kind because we go so far from God's intentions. But man after all is a most selfish being. He seems to want himself raised in the eyes of all humanity to a place of preferment rather than his brother. He is willing to make void his brother's life in order to raise himself, deceiving and being deceived, and taking North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association Home Office: Durham, North Carolina C.

Capt. Edward Burwell, of Crew of 11 Negroes, Describes Remarkable Feat of Hog Island Workmen. "King" Burwell—otherwise Capt. Edward Burwell, Negro leader of a gang of 11 Negro pile drivers—credits Robert Bruce with the inspiration which led his crew to break the world's record in driving piles on shipway No. 46, at Hog Island. "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again," reads the placard on the pile-driving machine to which he pointed, smiling, when he was asked how he and his men had happened to break the record. "That sign filled our crew with enthusiasm," he said. "We decided one night that a new world's record would be made on the morrow, and it was. Of course, we had some mechanical troubles, but the men instead of freeting and fuming just looked up at the sign and started in with renewed vigor. The result was that the record was smashed. "I am glad that the record was made at Hog Island. Here, if a man can deliver the goods in getting the ships out on schedule time he gets the same credit and appreciation whether he is white or black. It's a wonder ful illustration of the spirit with which we are all working hand in hand to defeat the land-grabbing, cruel Huns." The record before Burwell's crew smashed it, was driving 165 piles in nine hours. Burwell and his men drove 220 65 foot piles in nine hours and five minutes, although for a good part of the time the men worked in a terrific downpour of rain. Since coming on the job in January Burwell and his crew have driven 4,131 piles for a total of 241,573 linear feet. Burwell's log for the record day shows the drive for each hour to have been as follows: 27, 23, 28, 22, 27, 25, 23, 22, 22—total 220. The added five minutes came in the last hour; the day's work should have ended at 4:00 p. m., but, actually ended at 4:35. There was a delay of 4 minutes due to a broken line, and of 8 minutes due to the pipe fall breaking. There was heavy rain from 8:15 to 12 a.m. and 1.25 to 2.50 p. m. From 1:25 to 1:40 p. m., moreover, the air pressure dropped considerably holding up the hammer. The record made by Burwell and his crew was obtained in detail by Dr. G. E. Haynes, director of Negro economic in the Department of Labor. HOW SINGING SPEEDS WORK Specialist Finds that Music Stimu- lates and Cheers Workmen. According to Peter Dykema, of the War Camp Community Service, the value of "community sings" in every line of war-time service can hardly be overestimated. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY OCTOBER 18, 1918. 3. Guarding the "Bridge Across the Atlantic" Prussion war lords boasted that America would not dare attempt to send an army to France in the face of the deadly submarine. But America called the bluff. America did dare. Today America has a Million and a Half Fighting Men in France, fully equipped, with arms, ammunition and supplies. 2 The American Navy----your Navy---convoyed the transports carrying these precious cargoes of soldiers, munitions and food. More than a Million men in France with practically no loss of lives. It's a record that stirs the pride of every true American. Without the Navy we could not have landed these men "over there." Without the Navy our Army in France now would be helpless, we could not keep it supplied. The "Bridge Across the Atlantic" must be kept open. The skulling U-boat must be held at bay while we continue to pour our crusaders into France. "More Ships" is the cry. More ships we must have. They are being turned out of the shipyards with remarkable rapidity. But we must keep on building, keep on sending them out to convoy troops; to conquer the submarine and to meet Germany's navy when the time comes. "More Ships!" is the cry. It takes billions to build a great Navq. It takes billions to maintain it. The cost of constructing naval vessels has increased greatly since June, 1917. Battleships which could be built then for Thirteen Million Dollars now cost $23,075,000. Other types of vessels have increased proportionately. Battle cruisers now cost $24,900,000; destroyers $1,590,000; and submarines from $850,000 to $1,430,000. They must be manned. It takes thousands of seamene and millions of dollars to keep them in service. The Government calls on you to furnish the money to build more ships. Every dollar you invest in Liberty Bonds helps to float another ship; helps to equip the men; helps to buy the ammunition and makes it safer for your boy "over there." JAMESE, GREGG, Principal.

C., with "block-singing" where groups of neighbors are gathered together in one street; four-minute singles in the moving-picture houses; and store and factory sings, in which a certain time is devoted regularly for group singing among the employees. Mr. Dykema is quoted as saying that the construction of the new Navy building in Washington was undoubtedly completed in record time due to the effect of the "singing men." "The labor turnover at the Navy building," said Prof. Dykema, "was reaching a total of 600 men a week. After the singing groups were started this turnover was reduced 50 per cent—a gain in speed work in actual transportation cost, of $1,800 alone—but more than all in the great asset of labor—esprit de corps." Mr. George Holmes received a telegram this week announcing the death of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Katie Hudson. She was formerly of Chicago, but for a number of years has made Detroit, Mich. her home. Quite a number of friends extend to Mr. Holmes their deepest sympathy. Army charging into blasting, blinding fire of the German hordes.
