VOLUME XIV COLUMBIA' WAR WORK CAMPAIGN ORGANIZATION NOW PERFECTED —MAURY COUNTY'S MEN IN THE TRENCHES—CHURCHES ACTIVE—SOCIAL LIFE OF CITY. "To Make Our Men Better Soldiers and Our Soldiers Better Men." "The colored people have been organized in eighty-six counties in the state of Tennessee, and everything is now being put in readiness for the big 'drive' November 11-18th," said Dr. J. F. Lane when a Globe reporter called upon him at the State headquarters in the Colored Y. M. C. A. building yesterday afternoon. Dr. Lane is the president of Lane College, Jackson, Tenn., but for the past month he has been serving as Associate Executive Secretary for the Colored Department in the state organization in the organization is Dr. E. E. Anderson this city. In perfecting the organization throughout the state in behalf of the First United War Work Campaign among colored people, Dr. Lane and Dr. Clement have covered the state twice, and within a short space of time they have perfected organizations in almost every county of the state. This is the first time Negro leadership has been recognized by the National War Work Council, and it is highly important for the Negroes throughout the state to rally never before to the call of the nation. The organization is so perfected that a record will be made of all the companies made by the colored peoople of the state that at the close of the campaign it actively announced exactly what the Negroes of the state have done in this particular drive. Let us make a record to which we can point in the future with pride. We shall do this if each one does his part. The State Executive Committee of the colored organization is composed of the following well-known persons: Bishop I. B. Scott, chairman, of the M. E. Church; Bishop N. C. Cleaves, the presiding bishop of Tennessee conferences of the C. M. E. Church; Bishop B. F. Lee, the presiding bishop of the A. M. E. Church; Bishop George C. Clement, the presiding bishop of the A. M. E. Zlon Church; Bishop Henry $100 Baptist Pub Ibishing House; Mr. F. Pope, State Federation of Colored Worcester Clubs; Rev. Wm. Haynes, of the Baptist Sunday School Publishing House; Rev. J. L. Harding, President of the State Baptist Convention; Dr. J. P. Crawford of the Knights of Pythias; Mr. P. F. Hill of the U. B. F. and S. M. T.; Mr. L. U. C. Moore, of the Odd Fellows; Prof. Isaac Fisher and President W. J. Hale, representing the schools; Mr. D. J. Mitchell, of the Sir Knights and Daughters of Tabor; Mr. J. B. Woods, of the Mosaic Templars of America; Dr. D. J. Williams, of the Royal Circle of Friends. The State Executive Committee acceded $150,000 as the minimum sum that the colony would undertake to raise. In other words the colored people are asked to raise at least $150,000 during these seven days. We want to raise $25,000 per day. For the Western Division, Mr. B. M. Roddy is the Secretary, having as his Field Marshals Mr. J. W. Lane, of Jackson; Rev. A. Parr, of Brownsville; Rev. J. W. Ribbin and Prof. T. J. Johnson, of Memphis, and Dr. W. J. O Lee, of Humboldt. These are all outstanding colored men who enjoy the confidence and respect of all who know them. For the Central Division, Dr. P. J. Colman is the Executive Secretary, having as Field Marshals, viz. Prof. T. P. Turner, of Pulaski; R. F. Thompson, of Dickson; Mr. Nace Dixon, of Clarksvie; Prof. J. W. Work, of Nashville; Rev. F. W. Gardner, of Shelbyville; Rev. E丹 Kay, of Gallatin; Dr. B. E. Washington, McMinnville, and Rev. E. J. Guthrie, of Nashville. These men have a record of achievements in public life of which they may justly be proud. For the Eastern Division, Mr. R. E. Clay is the Divisional Secretary with the following workers: Field Marshals: Dr. N. D. Shamburg of the shattanoga; Prof. U. L Knox, of Clewitt; Dr. Lee S. Myers, of the Laurel; Dr. W. K. Arter, of Maryville; Editor W. J. Porter, of Knoville; Dr. W. S. E. Hardy, of Jefferson City, and Rev. J. H. Byers, of Johnson City. With these men in the lead, nothing but success in a large way is expected. Let us show our loyalty and worth by responding to the appeal that will be made in all parts of the state during the campaign. CONVENTION ENROLLMENT St. Paul Baptist Church, Fountain Fla., Rev. P. A.

After making quite an extensive round over the field, Rev. J. L. Collins, missionary for the State Baptist Convention reached Nashville this week. He reported a very successful trip in carrying out the disinformation "Go to all the world and preach the gospel" as taken from St. Mark 16:15. He has been able to demonstrate in a most clear manner the real service of a missionary. The churches throughout the district have been keeping their doors open constantly on the lookout for the Rev. Mr. Collins. One of his last engagements after the ban was lifted was at Smyrna, Tenn., at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church where he preached to the congregation the day and the other night. They have him $4.40 for the mission work. Brother Collins said: "I am praying for the good pastors and their people. Rev. J. E. Elder is located at Smyrna. Another church that I visited was the Bryant Grove Baptist Church. At this church a great meeting was also held on Sunday, Nov. 3rd. These people are in hearty sympathy and co-operation with the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated). They are supported by the National Publishing Board and are among the host of workers in the state who are solidly behind the National Baptist Theological Training Seminary. They gave Missionary Collins $3 for Missions and the Rev. Mr. Elder announced that his people were interested in this work. In this stand they are supported by their ex-pastor, the Rev. Dr. Strong, who, although a active missionary himself, is a power with the people in the district. Ralph W.

SOLDIERS FROM NASHVILLE REPORTED TO HAVE BEEN IN THE FRONT LINE FIGHTING IN THE MOST TERRIFIC BATTLE THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN. PARK AVENUE C. M. E. CHURCH, Chicago, purchased by Bishop R. A. Carter, organized last Sunday. Bishop N. C. Cleaves preached the sermon o for organization. Dr. J. A. Humlett, editor of the Christian Index, preache dat night. Report reached Nashville from various sources bringing information that it is estimated that by conservative thought 400,000 Negro soldiers are fighting with the American armies and their allies in France, and that their deeds of herolism are being heralded to the four corners of the world. The allied generals have been amazed at the splendid marksmanship of the Negro American troops. It is reported here that members was effervescent, even contagious, and their rockling songs and plantation melodies cheered all, making them, those who thought had involuntarily turned to submarines—Germany's acme of kultur—forget them, and banish all fear from their minds. One of the songs which they frequently sang, and with a gusto which gave further evidence of their 1907 defeat, Americanism and which never fainted to elicit rapturous applause from the white passengers was "Three Months From Now We Will Be in Germany." I heard it said that the big waters frightened colored soldiers, but these colored soldiers aboard the ship I sailed appeared as contented, self-centered and care-bereft on the big ship at night, when lights were out, as they were down in Alabama, Virginia, Mississippi and other southern states from whence most of them came. Their contentment at sea, and when in the submarine zone, constituted another disillusion. Among these troopers were some clever boxes, and the monotony of "just sky and water" was frequently broken by some rattling box matches between these troopers for pretty substantial purses which the white passengers contributed merely out of arrrimation and respect for these big, brave black boys, who did not fear to come over to fight for world democracy. An amusing incident took place the second day out. Forty or fifty of the colored soldiers had formed a circle and were singing to their hearts' delight, and the delights of the passengers. One of them, seemingly, changed his voice with each song or hymn. "What do you sing?" called down from the upper deck, a natured son or the Emerald Isle, aside as a flash came the answer, "Some a song sing bass and sometimes I sing sooano." And it was true, for in the adapted himself to the type of the song he was singing, to the circumference, to the other singers, and above, to heaps, to his mood. Because they were lightearted, cheerful, when going across the big waters, it must not be accepted that they were merely lightearted because of lack of brain development, for many amouns them were bright, intelligent men, graduates of Howard University and other accredited schools. Off to the Front for News of "Our Boys." I shall tarry but a day or two here in Paris, only until I get my fifeary tentatively made out, and then I shall be of it to the front where our colored soldiers are stationed, and I go to the front with the same absence of jear that characterized the colored troopers who sailed for France on the ship with me in my next letter I hope to have been able of the famous Company G who were among the first to be called into service, and who left this city under the command of Captain C. O. Hadley, brought down a German aeroplane, reports of which appeared in the daily papers here sometime ago. The aeroplane caught fire and was a complete wreck. Some Nashville friends received pieces of the German aeroplane in the mail. The Company G soldiers are known to have been marksmen, as they made some of the highest averages on to secure some real, permissible news about what the colored soldiers—our boys—have done and are doing to maintain the race's traditional reputation for bravery, endurance and patroltism, and to help "make the world safe for democracy." If this world democracy we are figuring for is like the sample I have been made acquainted with, from New York to Paris, I have no doubt that they are putting up a whaling good fight to land the Democracy pendant for the United States—our own and only country. BETTER NEGRO SCHOOLS FOR LOUISIANA Baton Rouge, La.-The State Department or Education has just issued a notable bulletin on Negro education prepared by Mr. Favrot, state agent for rural colored schools. It is accompanied in an appeal from State Superintendent, At Harris to parish superintendent and school boards to aid in a state-wide betterment of colored schools, which is shown as necessary "from the viewpoint of our economic and industrial development, from the viewpoint of health, public safety and justice." Louisiana has in 15 years made splendid progress with her white schools, for which she pays more than any Southern State; but her expense for Negro education is less than any state in the country. Mr. Favrot quotes from Dr. Dabney, the distinguished Tennessee educator; to promote the reunion of education. According to Dabney, sacuensets gives her citizens seven years' schooling and her yearly production is $260; the United States, with 4.4 years' schooling, produces $170 per capita per year; Tennessee, with three years' schooling, produces $166 per year. Taking $100 as the yearly production of the uneducated Negro, the bulletin gives a careful estimate of the financial loss to the state through sickness and death preventable by sanitary improvement, of nearly $16,000,000 per year. This does not include the slack losses of whites traceable to health conditions among Negroes. The state also bears its share of soil devastation in the South where 100,000,000 acres are cultivated. by Negro farmers, tenants and laborers, most of whom have never been taught the rudiments of successful agriculture. "We see the need," says Mr. Favot, "we can stand the cost, and we know how to do the job. Do it in the interest of a more prosperous state, better health, or public safety, or do it because our sense of justice or fairness prompts us to it. Or do it, in the comprehensive plan of our President, 'to make the world safe for democracy.'" record. Only several years ago the Governor of the State and the Adjutant General paid the highest possible compliment to Company G for their soldierly bearing and their devotion to the flag. So far as can be learned, none of the company has been killed. Some have been wounded and it is reported that several have been gased and were in the Base Hospital, but even there they are reported to have the fighting spirit. Every day fresh news is expected from the boys at the front. 48TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF COLORED METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OPENED AT CAPER'S CHAPTL AT 10 O'CLOCK THIS MORNING.

CHURCH SESSION CLOSED, APPOINTMENTS READ. BISHOP B. F. LEE, D. D., PRESIDED. The fifty-first session of the Tennessee Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church, which was forbidden to assemble on schedule time, October 23rd, on account of the epidemic, closed a hurriedly called session of the leaders of the conference, last Sunday at which time the appointments were read out by Bishop Lee. The conference business was transacted largely through a committee appointed by the bishop, consisting of the presiding elders and the usual clerical force of the conference, acting for the body. Before the work of this committee was concluded, the closing order ban had been lifted, and a considerable number of the REPUBLICANS IN LOWER HOUSE RESULTS OF TUESDAY'S ELECTION—JUDGE ROBERTS WINS WITH PLURALTY OF 25,000—SENATOR SHIELDS RETURNED. Republicans are claiming the Lower House of Congress and the Senate as a result of Tuesday's election, says reports from various sections of the United States. Many states have sent in an increased Republican delegation to Congress, and in some instances they have replaced the Republican Senators for the Democratic ones, although the returns are still incomplete. These claims and counter claims continue to come through, but in Tennessee conditions remain precisely the same politically. Judge Roberts was elected by something over 25,000 plurality as Governor of the state over the Republican opponent. Senator James K. Shields is returned for another six years by an increased vote over his Republican opponent, while the Democratic nominee for railroad commissioner, Gen Hanner, received an unanimous endorsement. As it now appears there will be two Democratic Senators from Tennessee, a Democratic Congressman and two Republican Congressmen. The Republican Congressmen are J. Will Taylor, Sam R. Sells. At the time of going to press some doubts still existed as to the final complexion of both Houses with respect to majorities. ministers gathered at the places of meeting, and an interesting time was spent. Sabbath services were held at St. John's Church, at which time, Dr. J. A. Jones, presiding elder of the North Nashville District, delivered the annual sermon, and the ordination of Rev. A. J. Irvin took place. The Holy Communion was administered to the ministers. The reports showed that the sum of $2857.40 of Dollar Money had been raised and sent in. That the grand total of monies collected, aggregated more than $4,000. Several changes in appointments were made after the adjournment of conference, for obvious reasons. These changes were, Rev. J. K. Childress from Shelbyville to Springfield; Rev. J. N. Carter from Springfield to Shelbyville; Rev. A. J. Leath from New Hope to Woodbury, Rev. J. N.

Solem and impressive were the funeral services held, over the remains of Mrs. H. L. P. Jones last Tuesday evening at the St. Paul A. M. E. Church. One of the largest crowds that has attended a funeral service for some, time was present. When the organist played the derge the cortex moved slowly up the isle between two rows of deaconeses, one from the St. John A. M. E. Church and the other from St. Paul Church. The choir sang for an opening hymn, "And Must I Be to Judgment Brought?" which was announced by Rev. Anderson of the Scoal Street A. M. E. Church. Scripture was by Rev. J. C. Caldwell of the Salem A. M. E. Church. Then the obituary was read by Rev. Whitfield of the Salem A. M. E. Church, after which the choir, under the direction of Mr. A. G. Price, the chorister render a selection. The Rev. G. L. Jackson, presiding elder and a life long friend of the family, who had known Mrs. Jones since childhood, who had charge of the services, then delivered the funeral ovation. He told of the life and work of the deceased, taking an appropriate text which he said could not be more fitting, as it portrayed just what the deceased had really lived and accomplished while here. Dr Jackson was eloquent as well at pathetic in his discourse. He was assisted by the Rev. Howard of Bethel, who was the deceased since was a girl, and by Rev. W. S. Ellington of the First Bantist Church. The obituary stated that the deceased leaves five children, three boys, and two girls, a brother, Mr. John Fannon, of Minneapolis, Minn., a husband, some relatives and a host of friends. FIRESIDE SCHOOL TRAINING CLASSES There was an enthusiastic opening of the Fireside School Training Classes on Friday morning, November 1st. Thirty-eight enrolled for the course representing seventeen churches. Many members of last year's class were present and a goodly number of new members. It is expected there will be a large increase next week as a number of names of those intending to join the class. The class opened with a song and praise service led by Miss Morgan. Following this plans for the course were outlines by the teachers. Miss Morgan will present the study of the Sunday school lesson. Miss Eaton will give a course in personal work and Miss Cushing will conduct the missionary programs. Speakers will address the class on various occasions.

COLUMBIA FRONT PAGE Columbia, Tenn., Nov. 6—Uppermost in the minds of the people in this community now is the united war work campaign. Organization has been perfected and workers selected for the drive that will show Maury County's interest in every department of activity that will support the war effort. This county does not lead in giving men to the army and navy. it is rem- in practically every branch of the service, boasting of perhaps what few counties in the state can claim by the way of having men from the various sections of the county right on the front line trenches. Their messages to their friends and relatives that constantly come this way have had a tendency to stir interest and keep it alive. 2 MME, DAISY EVANS WADE AT HER POST, AGAIN. Mme. Daisy Evans Wade of 615 41th avenue, S, has returned home again from a week-end's business trip to Birmingham, Ala. While there she was the guest of Mrs. Willie Blackman.

Mme. Wade was also successful in her business and there, being one of the most capable representatives of the Twin Colleagues Hair and Beauty Culture. Mme. Wade is a self-made business woman of great success of which Nashville colored women should be proud. THE B. W. E. CONVENTION Bowling Green, Ky., Nov. 4, 1918—In closing the thirty-sixth annual session of the Baptist Women's Educational Convention at Pleasant Green Baptist Church, Lexington, Ky., Oct. 3-6, recorded the greatest spiritual, financial and educational success in the life of the Convention. Notwithstanding the great crises through which all the people of the world are passing, the high cost of life and the discount upon the dollar and the Snake Queena, the guests were royally entertained the good people of Lexington. None of the things mentioned above seemed to play any part in preventing the delegation from enjoying themselves to the fullest along all lines. And though a few came in Wednesday noon the coach bearing those from Loussain and those in Western and Southern Kentucky arrived at 12:35 p. m. Thursday, when required to Pleasant Green Church, where they amately engaged in a praise and introductory service which was highly spiritual and greatly enjoyed by all. At 2 p.m. the delegation was invited into the basement where a splendid dinner composed of everything of the season was served by the statera of the church. This over we went again to the main auditorium of the church and engaged in the after-the-session of the Convention. Every train morning during morning till Saturday morning during new delegates. At the close of the afternoon session we were again invited down stairs for supper which was another repast enjoyed by all. One of the pleasing things about the entertainment of the delegation was the willingness of all the Baptist churches in sharing each its part. On Friday the First Baptist Church of which Rev. R. Mitchell is pastor played host and hostess. They tried to more and serve better than Pleasaner. They served supper also and all were much pleased with the manner in which they were served. The Main Street Baptist Church, Rev. L. J. McCutchen, pastor, gave dinner and supper to the delegates on Saturday and they vied with the other two churches in tempting the appetites of the delegates for dinner and supper. It is hard to tell where came out ahead in preparation, service and menu. The tables on each day were beautiful but cut flowers. Astle from these meals served at the church the delegates were guests of private funerals for special meals. Breakfast was served in the homes to delegates. The second day's program was carried out as scheduled, comprising air force reports from various departments, and introduction of strangers. Friday evening was Educational night. Many were the good papers and spiritual songs enjoyed by the congregation. Rev. J. E. Wood, moderator of Kentucky Baptists, and moderator of Kentucky president of State University, had usual places on the program and made many appeals for the work which they impaired. We are glad to have one our own products at the head of this great institution and we believe that with the interest and enthusiasm that characterizes this our son, that State University will put on new impetus to forefront few years lead it to the forefront of schools of its kind. We congratulate the trustees upon their selection and Rev. Parrish because he is the choice. Saturday morning, and afternoon programs were carried out as usual at 5:30 p. m., which was "Children's Hour," when a program was rendered by the Band of Pleasant Green Choir managed by Miss Alice F. Saunders, judges of those of the Children's Band of Pleasant Green Master Edward P. Maughan of Shovelville rendered a solo and a recitation. A violin solo by Master Slaughter Maurice Murrell of Bowling Green He also accompanied little Grace Turner, who sang a solo. Masters Martin and Murrell are life members of the convention and the two young boys he are pleased to see these boys in church. Christian work while young, trusting that they will make strong Christian men, for we deeply deolore the absence of men in our churches today. Mrs. Thile Smiley Graham, a sweet gospel singer melted the audience tears with her soul-stirring renditions of "Pray" and "Over Yonder." She was called upon at nearly every session to sing which she did, and each time shouts of joy could be heard in the audience. We predict for Mrs. Graham great success as an evangelist singer. The Methodist Conference was convening at Nichol-sville at the time of our meeting and a delegation was sent from Convention to deliver greetings to the Conference. They were pleasantly received in return a delegation was sent to thank us for the greeting and extended the same to our Convention. Saturday night was the Patriotic Programme. Mrs. Lizzie House presented the Fourth Liberty Leaf her usual manner, and Mrs. Lavinia B. Sneed addressed the Convention on the subject, "The Price of Golgo Over the Top." Mrs. Sneed is a pleasing and enthusiastic speaker and delighted her hearers with the rudal of "The Brave Boys at the Front" and "The Price of Every Cannon, Tank and Rifle Shoot," besides everything connected with the great world war. On Sunday morning delegates had been appointed to visit the vario's Sunday schools and churches of the city and place our work before them and make our claim to them. This method we call "Gleaning." At the mass meeting Sunday afternoon when all reports were made the amount was around fifty dollars. On Sunday night when all reports were made and everything done the Finance Committee reported raised in cash and checks two thousand five hundred sixty-one dollars and eighty-eight ($2,561.88) cents, and between two hundred and two hundred and fifty delegates. An outburst of pleasant surprise came from all. We felt to praise God from whom all blessings flow. We realized that God was with us for notwithstanding we had no delicatice place to meet five weeks before the time of convening, our meeting was a glorious success. We thought that the delay in finding a house for the Convention would have tended to decrease its number and the amount or money raised, but instead it seemed to be a spur to greater efforts. This is the last of our state meetings for the year and we are grateful to God that we had all ours before all public gatherings to be discontinued. We feel that His Providence so ordered it. Again we speak of the unity which seems to exist among the churches. We realize that we could not have been so highly entertained had not this harmony existed. If all the churches of the state could be so united what great work we could do for Christian Education and Missions! I was about to forget that Rev. L. G. Jordan was in our midst Thursday night and made a most touching plea for Foreign Missions. He is lately from Africa, and when he was through telling of the anxiety of the heathen to know our God and the sacrifices that are made by our missionaries, the trials and hardships they suffer, he laid his claim before us. Many eyes were dim with tears, and the sympathy many cheeked with that he pictured the condition of the heathen there and those that are giving their lives for them. He asked for ten persons to bring him a dollar each, but the people's hearts and sympathies were so touched that when the collection was closed there was on the table $47.50. The Convention made it $50.00. All the sessions were largely attended. At nights there was not seating room to accommodate the audience.

Somewhere in France, Oct. 11, 1918 My Dear Beloved Mother:— I received your letter October 5th and was glad to hear from you all I am well and doing well and I hope when these few lines reach y loving hands they will find you the same. Give my best regards to all, grandmother. Uncle Tip and Wille and also Julia. W C H, Pearl, Nelson. Rubia Mal and the Brooks family. I was in the big drive they had, and believe me, it was some drive. We went "over the top" about noon and we walked through like taking a drink of water. The boys from old Nashville did spread the stuff and our motto is: "Old Goy will Never Hit the Ground." The song we sang just before we went "over the top" was "What a great time we will have when we reach Beilin." Dring good old kalser beer and make him shed a tear." Don't worry about the boys for we will bring the bacon home. The kalser has traveled for about a year around and shot him down. It takes the old 269 Regiment and the famous fighting 372 to make the kalser lay his weapon down. By the way, we will make the kalser have the influenza or the German blues before it is over. Well, I think this is all for the present. I will write more next time. May NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8. 1918. God bless you till we meet again on earth. He is with us every day of our lives.

P. 179, France, via New York (U. S. A.) N. Y. . Men Past 60 Are Developed Into Valuable Workmen in Very Short Time. The war has given the Osler fable its final quotus. It has provided the great opportunity for men over the draft age to demonstrate that they can take their places in the ranks of essential laborers and do their bit to help win the war. A Worcester (Mass.) man for example, 63 years old, had been a pattern maker, a millwright, and a stonemason. He had always had a "bankering," as he said, to be a machinist, and the world war offered him his chance. He worked at the superinventor of a Worcester factory which has one of the best schooling schools in the country and is now making wonderful progress in the training department. The superintendent expects that soon he will be a first-class instructor. A 60-year-old painter of New Haven, Conn., learned to be an adept machinist after a short course in the Boardman Trade School in that city in Bridgeport, Conn., a shirt ironer over the draft age learned in three days to run a screw machine and process 25 per cent faster than the manufacturer's estimate. At the end if a week he was taking the machine apart and putting it together again, and now he is earning 60 cents an hour as a regular worker. An enamelling training was qualified as a foreman at the end of a four-year farmer 68 years old, who had had mechanical training in his youth, qualified as a skilled worker in a munitions plant in a short time. These are but a few of the examples that come to the attention of the Information and Education Service Department of Labor of men over 45 who become skilled war workers. REV. AND MRS. J. A.

The class will run on the same old schedule from 4 until 8 each Saturday afternoon, with full orchestra. BISHOP CARTER TAKES OVER $100,000 CHURCH FOR THE C. M. E.'s BISHOP CLEAVES DELIVERS GREAT. SERMON Special to the Globe. Chicago, III., Nov. 4. —Colored Methodism receives a great impetus here last week when Bishop R. A. Carter consumed the biggest church bargain ever pulled off in this city, and brought to the C. M. E connection the big Park Ave. Church on the West Side, which, with its equipment is worth $100,000. Services were held there when Bishop N. C. Cleaves of Memphis, Tenn., preached a great sermon and editor J. Arthur Hammett of Jackson, Tenn., spoke at night. Drs. N. L. Smith of St. Louis, W. H. W. L. W. L. W. Ferguson of Milwaukee, Winters and Bryson of this city took part. Bishop Carter is a great masonary, and is rapidly establishing his church in the North. Offer Themselfs for Night Work in War in Afghanistan Coastalville War in Big Screes. Professional and business men of Coatesville Pa., have demonstrated their devotion to their country's cause by going at night into war-industries plants of the city to unload coal cars, load fire brick, shovel rubbish from blast furnaces and operate punch presses. The service was organized by the local Employment Service office and started operations with 52 doctors, lawyers, preachers, bankers, clerks, newspaper man, and others. Its per sonnel was enlarged, as a result of its initial success, to include all available in the city not already working with their hands. The Information and Education Service, Department of Labor, is informed that the general superintendent of the Midvale Steel and Ordnance Co. has declared that, besides the invaluable aid professional men have given by their actual labor, they also have rendered a very great corollary to the interest of the regular workers, who in many instances have volunteered for overtime work in order to help keep the output to minimum. DID 90-DAY JOB IN 39 DAYS. Force at Army Supply Base in South Boston Made Fine Record in Construction Job. One of the most conspicuous feats of labor in war-time construction is reported from the Army supply base in South Boston, where what is known as the "E Street Job" onestory brick and concrete building for storing Army supplies, were completed in 33 spring days, instead of the 90 allowed by the War Department. Information which has reached the department of Labor has some idea of the magnitude of this job. The building cover about 8 acres of ground and the material used in the job included more than 13,000 cubic yards of concrete 300 tons of steel 1,000,000 brick and 2,500,000 feet ofumber. Just Be Found Ready-Made, and Amount to a Quarter of Total. Twenty-five out of every hundred soldiers in the modern Army must be specialist in some trade. In old times it was customary to make these specialists to order, accepting any intelligent man for training under present-day conditions, however, that is impossible and the specialists must be found ready-made. They must be good at their trades and the commanders must know exactly how good they are. Therefore it has been necessary to establish trade tests, to measure the trade, for mechanic to typist. LEARNED RIVETING IN A DAY Three New Employees at Hog Island School Put to Work After Twenty Hours' Training. The rapidity with which man power may be converted to war uses is illustrated in the cases of three applicants for work at the How Island Shipyard Raymond Curatula, Fred Roller, and Arthur Burnley entered the riveting school for a 10 day's course, which did fit them for regular employment. In 20 working hours they were handling the pneumatic hammer and punch with such dexterity that they were told to report for work. Curatula had been a chauffeur; Roller, a mechanic; and Burnley, a horsewoman. The Hog Island training school coaches for shipbuilding constant large numbers of employees furnished by the United States Employment UNION MEN GIVE LABOR TO RED CROSS. Great Special Building, Saving at Least $15,000 for War Work. Eighty-three men finished in one dawn and a half the framework of the first of eight buildings, which the union-labor men of San Francisco volunteered to lift for the Red Cross in the Civic center, and thus broke all previous records for intensive building. When the plan to give labor worth thousands of dollars was agreed on there was intense rivalry among the locals of the Carpenters' Union, and majority of workers was selected by the Building Trades Council from Carpenters' Local No. 22. Because of the great number of volunteers it was necessary to appoint a different set of workers for each week. Work on the first building was begun on a Saturday at 1 p.m. officials of the unions helped to hammer the timbers in place. At sunset on Sunday the framework of the first building was completed. The plans for the seven structures provide an artistic arrangement of picturesque, one-story uses in the shape of two crosses, and made by R. B. Maybeck, the architect of the ephelae of Fine Arts. The site and grading were donated by the city of San Francisco. "The labor given by the unions represents a saving of at least $15,000," said A. S. McDonald, chairman of the Building Committee of the Red Cross, "Not a penny subscribed for the Red Cross war work will be diverted to the expense of building Lumber and other building materials were contributed through the Lumber Sales Export Co." The instance is one of the most conspicuous of many examples of labor's patroltism that have come to the attention of the Department of Labor. NASHVILLE MAN HURT IN DETROIT Word has just been received in Nashville that Mr. George Brooks, who was formerly well known in this city, but now residing in Detroit, met with a serious accident by having his thumb cut off in a band saw. At the time of the accident he was employed in one of the large factories that was holding the second world's record maker. Mr. Brooks was employed in shop where there were a number of white men employed and but few colored, but it is reported the colored employees are holding their own and that Mr. Brooks held the record for making sixteen dozen in ten hours.

The Sunday school was largely attended, was owed in the usual form by the superintendent, Mr. T. M. Groomes.' The lesson was beautifully discussed by the pastor, Rev. G. B. Bolden. The 11 o'clock service was also largely attended with young and old that seemed to be filled with the Holy Ghost when they went into covenant. At 8 o'clock Rev. Bolden preached an interesting and soul-stirring sermon, before administering the Lord's Supper. Again he offered an invitation to sinners and was blessed with three converts during the day. The series of meetings will be continued through the week and all Christians are invited to come out and help us in this great battle. Sinners are always welcome. Rev. B. Bolden, Pastor.

Late hours, idle mornings, dainty clothes, bibs, and gossip are just a few of the peace-time luxuries while American Womanhood is asked to put away without moth balls, now that the call has come for the full utilization of her services in the winning of the war. Self-sacrifice in frivolities should now be accepted as a matter of course. That women are doing their bit was therefore not denied by the manager of a northern Virginia war plant who came to Washington recently to get in personal touch with the District of Columbia office of the United States Employment Service. Women FOLLOW FERG. are fine workers, he said; their spirit is beyond reproach; they are careful, accurate, and painstaking, but without exception, all that had come within his experience drew the line at "greasy hair." The examiner in charge listened attentively, then told thief that his commission seemed a little sweeping. "Wil," said the latter, "I'm from Missouri; you know the rest." "The rise" developed a few days ago. A girl amused for work in a machine shop at the District of Columbia. She was recommended to the Sissourian a starred in as a machinist's apprentice.

It is of interest to the men who are working made by the war that Cuba working in the coal mines to meet the necessarily must take an increased supply. In past years a small percentage of the island's consumption was covered by imports from Great Britain, but now these have been stopped. According to a report made by Consular Assistant George A. Makinson the industries displayed at the port of Cancun Cuba consume approximately 25,000 tons of American coal per annum. Prices for bunkers are in the neighborhood of $25 per ton which does not include the cargo of $1.50 per ton made for placing the coal alongside the ship. SWEDISH INDUSTRY AFFECTED RY.WAR Textile Industry in Particular Hard Hit by World Conflict. According to American Commercial Agent. Swedish industries have suffered severely in consequence of the war. According to a report transmitted by Commercial Agent Norman L. Anderson, of Copenhagen, Denmark, the Gothenburg Fair, which was the first exhibition of manufactured articles since 1914, showed many signs of the production, simulation and paralysis of production, of the output, followed by lack of raw materials. Efforts, sometimes successful and sometimes unsatisfactory, have been made to obtain substitutes for cotton, silk, and wool. "The goods from all parts of Sweden gathered at the Swedish fair show clearly the influence on its industry of the period of crisis," says Mr. Anderson. "Most striking, perhaps, is what is lacking at the fair. The very meager representation of the textile industry speaks for itself. The use of substitute raw material for this purpose is new in Sweden. There is, however, quite an assortment of textiles of paper, especially for curtains, table linen, linings etc., and of paper mixed with wool for cloth. * * * * In emergency cases this cloth may, of course be used, but as long as commonly woven cloth is obtainable the paper products will find no general use." WELFARE OF WORKMEN CONSIDERED. Big Australian Knitting Mills Build 100 Houses and Large Dining Room for Employees. In the plans for the new spinning and knitting mills at Coburg, Victoria near Melbourne, Australia, the well fare of employees has been considered. The buildings which will cover 39,000 square feet, include immeasure dining rooms and an up-to-date kitchen and 100 cottages for workmen. CANADA CONSIDERS LAND PROBLEMS. Returned Soldiers Anxious to Get Farms, But Want Great Unused Tracts Turned Over to Them. Efforts by the Canadian Government to put returned soldiers back on the land have not been highly successful as yet because so little desirable land is owned by the Government. Arrangements were made some time ago whereby soldiers might have first right to Crown lands, and might be loaned as much as $2,500 to assist them in building up productive farms, but the character of the land available has not attracted the men. Large unused tracts however, are held out of use by railroads and land companies. There is a pronounced land hunger on the part of returned soldiers, both in England and in Canada, according to word from those countries, and if these great fertile tracts can be brought into use it is expected that much will be accomplished toward promoting the greatly in creased food production that is desired after the war. Various means have been suggested for restoring these tracts to the public domain. The present owners, naturally, would like to have them purchased outright at present high prices. One means suggested is a requirement that all unused land be brought under cultivation within a certain term of years. This measure, it is predicted, would force speculators to put their land to use or to sell it back to the Dominion at a reasonable price, not at the alleged artificial figures prevailing to-day. Great Accessions to Labor Movement Since Blackpool Conference of 1917 Through Affiliation of Large Bodies. England's labor organizations now number nearly 4,000,000 persons, according to unofficial figures. The Blackpool labor parliament in 1917 represented 3,082,000 persons and since that meeting was held two large organizations—the Amalgamated Society of Employers, with 230,000 number and the Workers' Union with 260,000—have affiliated with it. Many smaller organizations and increases in unions already connected with it have raised the total to approximately 4,000,000, it is estimated.

MEXICAN GOVERNMENT COMMENI CONFERENCE. Labor Men Hope That President Wilson and Caranza May Attend Gathering at Laredo. Governors of the Mexican States are sending highly commendatory letters to labor headquarters regarding the proposal for an international labor conference at Laredo, Tex., for November 13 to 16. It is expected that a majority of the Mexican governors may attend the conference, and the executives of American border States will probably also be present. President Wilson and President Caranza, have been invited to the conference, and, if they can be present, will meet at the international boundary. The proposed labor meeting has attracted much interest throughout Latin America, and it is considered highly probable that many South American labor organizations will be represented at Laredo. UNIONS GAIN IN MONTREAL Street Car Men's Organization Followed by Combination of Police and Firemen of City. Montreal has witnessed great increases in union activities during the past three ood four months. The beginning was made with the unionization of the street car lines, a task which had ben attempted sereval times in the past without success. This added 3,0 to the rank of organized labor in Montreal. Since the police and firemen have formed union, a project is under way to unilize the tailors of the city. There are about 700 police men in the new union. WAGE QUESTIONS CHIEF STRIKE CAUSE. Canadian Figures Show That Disputes Over Rates of Pay Caused Most Labor Troubles. Official Canadian reports show that of the strikes in 1916 throughout the Dominion, 50 or 65 per cent, arose from differences over wages alone. Of these 47 were attempts to gain increased pay and 3 to prevent reductions. There were 7 strikes in which demands for increased pay were combined with other demands. In 3 strikes recognition of the union was the aim, and in the remaining 11 strikes other causes were the 'impelling motives. Forty per cent of the strikes resulted favorably to the employees, 20 per cent favorably to the employers, 29 per cent in compromise, and 11 per cent indefinitely. Attention. ATTENTION!

Hargrave, formerly of Nashville, but now residing in Chicago, is at present one of the sole owners of the Forster Film Co., of that city. He also holds a Government contract, which permits him to go to all the colored training camps and make moving pictures of all of the colored soldiers. These pictures, along with those of all of the leading playhouses all over the world and later will be shown in our playhouses here. Mr. Hargrave, as we all know, was at one time the leading colored photographer of Nashville and since going to Chicago he has kept up his practice to such an extent (during spare time) that if he continues he will be able to capture the finest photographers of the race. We are proud of Mr. Hargrave and only wish that Nashville had more young business men like him. THE UNITED WAR WORK CAM PAIGN MAKES ITS APPEAL TO Atlanta, Ga.—(Special to Nashville Globe.)—We should feel very proud of the fact that three hundred seventy thousands of our sons are in the arm, of Uncle Sam. For in the wars of this country the black soldier has made a most brilliant record, a record that all of us are very proud of, and a record that must be sustained. The daily reports that come to us from the other side tell in glowing terms of the records that our boys are making in this war. This is no more than many of us expected for we know that these brave fighters of ours are conscious of the great responsibility that rests upon them. I before me please as I write a number of letters that have just come from many of these boys, and the same great purpose and alliance resolve from one of the all. Here, from one of them that correctly sums up their thinking: "I want you to know that I am going to up hold all of the traditions of the Negro soldier, for I know that twelve million Negroes at home are watching with eager eye our conduct." These men must be properly cared for if it takes every dollar that we have on earth. They are making the supreme sacrifice by giving their all and the least that we (a d) is to see that they get every necessity and comfort that is possible for an American soldier. The seven great organizations that have combined in this United War Work Campaign are caring for all of the soldiers, both here at home and overseas, and we must give of our means in the same high way. The following information that comes from headquarters is worthy of our attention and thought: We have two hundred seventy secretaries with 22 buildings doing Y. M. C. A. work among our boys in the camps here at home and forty-five secretaries engaged in the same work overseas, including Prof. John Hope of Morehouse College. Twenty-five more have been approved and are now ready for sailing. Two of our foreign work secretaries have paid the last great debt, in the persons of Ballon of Knoxville College and Priethce of Lincoln University. "The work of the Y. M. C. A. over here," says Lieut. Chas. A. Shaw of Georgia, "is a God's blessing for them and a means of salvation to all of us. The huts are always crowded. The Y. M. C. A. is in its sensible" No less important is the work of the other six organizations included in this campaign, and I am sure that we are an agreeable surprise to know that the C. A. has a total of 25 Hostess Houses complete or under construction. These houses are built at the different cantments where our mothers, daughters and wives can meet their loved ones under the best conditions. Great preparations are being made to put over the drive for $170,600,000 when the real campaign opens on the 11th of this month. How shall we as black people meet the situation? Shall we step aside and try to make ourselves believe that this is some one else's job? No. Our answer will be made in the right way. We have never turned down an honorable appeal, when made to us in the right way by the Christian leaders of the country. We do not expect that other races shall do more for our boys than what we will do for them and theirs ourselves. They are ours by all the ties that bind, and we are going to see to it that they get everything that is possible to make them fit to fight in the great battle of freedom. Remember that when you bought a Liberty Bond, you were simply lending your money to the Government with inteest. This campaign is askie you to give the limit of your ability for the treasury. You know you best know what your anwer will be. Don't let this peace talk hinder you in doing your duty for if peace comes very soon it would not lessen in the least the needs for this big drive. When peace is declared it will take many months to adjust all of the conditions that have grown out of this war, and we may rest assured that the Allies will not disband their armies till all is settled right. This will take a long time. You will be glad to know that the Campaign Committee got out a colored poster for this effort among the many others. It is a decent picture, and should be placed in all of our church and all of our schools and lodges and homes. Several thousand of them have been sent to the seven states for distribution. See that you get one. Messrs. Arch Trawick and M. W. Reddick. Director and Associate Director, are big men and they are doing a big man's job with the colored department. They are determined to see it through with results. Let us help them. State Secretary Lane is looking for big things in Tennessee. W. J. TRENT, Associate Publicity Director. ROBERT SANFORD AS CORPORAL Camp Zachary Taylor, Ky.—(Special to the Nashville Hillel.)—Among promotions that have been made is that of Private Robert Sandford of Nashville, Teen. He has recently been honored at two different times. He was first made clerk of the 43rd Company, 11th Battalion, 159 D. B. (Colored). It is said that he filled this position so successfully, and showed such literary and military training that he was later promoted and made a corporal. Only a few of the dartfees who came up with Cop. Sanford remin at this camp. Most of them have been sent to other camps or over the sea, but Corporal Sanford being the clerk of the company, has remained there, assisting in keeping the records and doing other clerical work. Persistent rumor has it that he is being prominently mentioned for the officers training camp. MR JOE WATKINS IN FRANCE. "We have arrived safely in France "I am enjoying splendid health and I am eager to get on the firing line Pray for me and remember me to all my friends. Hope, mother, you and all the family are well." (Signed) Private Jos. Watkins. Such was the message received by Mr. Chas Watkins, father of Private Joe Watkins, who left Nashville with the immortal 600 which was said to be the largest draft among colorful performers of the private Watkins was employed at the National Baptist Publishing board's plant. His father is foreman of one of the departments of the plant. He entrained for Camp Tavlor where he was stationed for only a short while. From there he was transferred to several different posts and camps, and finally sent "overseas," where he is now preparing to do his bit in helping to make the world safe for democracy. Just before leaving Nashville, Private Watkins upon the matrimonial sea. Special praver services were held for him in the chapel of the National Baptist Publishing Board by the employees as he was very popular among all of them. HOW ENGLAND UTILIZES MAN POWER. War-Time Necessities Have Led to Radical Readjustments of Labor Situation in Great Britain. England's experience in handling her man-power problem since the war has led to wide readjustments, as is shown by a comprehensive article published in the next number of the Monthly Labor Review, which describes fully the national-service scheme of Great Britain. The Review article, prepared from material gathered by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor, points out that in the early months of the war great numbers of men rushed to enlist, and that not enough attention was paid to the importance of essential industries. The extent of the war and the new methods of warfare introduced soon compelled a more scientific treatment of national affairs, and in February, 1917, the national-service bill went into effect. This was designed to "make the best use of all persons, whether men or women, able to work in any industry, occupation or service," but defects in the law made men more necessary, in August, 1917, Sir Auckland Geddes, K. C. B., M. P., became head of the "man-power department." The functions of the Ministry of National Service are to review the whole field of man power and to have this information available at all times; to provide for the transfer from civil work not of primary importance or from the military branches such numbers of men as are necessary for urgent national work; to determine, subject to the War Cabinet's approval, the relative importance of civilian pursuits and to prepare from time to time such lists of reserved opations as are necessary for the maintenance of essential public services; to obtain for them the advantageous withdrawn from civil life; and to determine the physical fitness of such men and to provide where necessary substitute lair for their services. War-work volunteers were enrolled to undertake work of national importance either for the duration of a special job or for a year. Where theorkman's awake on his former job is greater than that on the special war job he is asked to undertake, the difference is made up to him. In some instances th workman is allowed subsistence or travellig expenses daily from his home town to the place of employment. Out-of-work allowances are provided, at the rate or about 85 cents a day, for volunteers, under certain conditions. The Ministry of National Service, through the employment exchanges handles these allowances. Union labor has been utilized as far as possible. Not only were 4,740,000 women at work in England in January, 1,442,000 of whom had directly replaced men, but 45,000 more were employed in hospitals or in domestic service. Proprietors of businesses who were called to the army have been protected by an arrangement requiring persons who wish to enter business to take out a license. This plan prevents aliens getting their trade. Dilution in England is so administered as to insure the proper proportional employment of skilled, hard-working workers, and of discharged soldiers. The problem of one-man businesses has been serious, and the effort has been made, where possible, not to destroy them. Proprietors of such businesses, if they are in the lower classes as to physical fitness, are commonly exempted, provided they undertake part-time work for the national good. Part time work is increasing. It can be used in agriculture, aeroplane construction, munitions work, train driving, street waste materials, coal delivery, waste waste materials, and work for such organizations as the Red Cross sand V. M. C. A. Nonessential industries have been considerable, curtailed, but sometimes it is hard to draw the line between necessary and nonessential work. For example by-products of soap making and silk manufacture are of value in munitions work. The building trades are the only ones in which strict control is possible, and restrictions have been placed on new construction. The regulations regarding exemption from military service provide that in general men under 23 years of age will not be relieved from service in an occupation. More not physically classified in grade I must engage in essential occupations. PLAN SUBJECTION OF AUSTRIAN WORKERS. Employers' Associations Combine in Order to Prejudice the Interests of Their Workmen. Austrian employers are making extensive preparations for peace time, according to information obtained by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor from the Correspondence blatt der Gerwerkschatten Deutschlands, and to be published in the next issue of the Monthly Labor Review. These preparations, however, am less at the development of industrial production on modern lines, to meet the increased international competition, than at combating all efforts at emancipation on the part of the working classes. Shortighted employers invariably regard the salvation of industry as attainable through keeping the working classes in subsection," the Review says in its discussion of Austrian conditions, "and similarly the Austrian employers, ignoring the needs of the State and the industries for a vigorous and therefore effective working class, are directing all their efforts to frustrating the fulfillment of this requirement. For this purpose they have recently brought about a unification of their organizations calculated to prejudice the interests of their workmen. Three of the most influential employers' associations, viz, the Industrial Club, the Central Association of Austrian Manufacturers, and the Austrian Manufacturers' Association, have combined and formed the Imperial Federation of Austrian Indus for a view of maintaining the interests of the workers in class, the three organizations named, the first was the most influential, comprising exclusively the great industrial magnates. The second was, in the main, the association of moderate-sized industrial concerns; in 1917 it had 2,000 members, employing about half a million hands. "The fact that three organizations so in scope and aims have been amalgamated shows the importance which the employers attach to Moines, Ia., Camp Funston District, Indianapolis, Ind., Little Rock, Ark, Waco, Tex., Galveston, Tex., and San Antonio, Tex. The policy of the Government in placing Negro battalions in each of the camps is said to have cated a problem in some of the neighboring communities. This problem the War Camp Community Service is endeavoring to solve. Most of the cities have been destitute of recreational facilities for many of the colored soldiers. The War Camp Community Service has been confronted with the necessity of adjusting colored soldiers from the north to southern cities and vice versa. The organization has met with a good degree of success in handling the situation and is providing the men with the forms of recreation which they most enjoy. Several of the southern cities have formed parallel committees for W. C. C. S., one being for work among the white people and the other among the colored. The colored committee works along the same lines as the white committee and practically all the colored committees work all the cities the effort is made to have the people of their own race undertake the management of the work as well as the actual entertainment of men. The supplying of a club seems to be the best single answer to the problem of recreation for colored troops. Not only does it serve as a headquarters for them but also most of the committees for the men seem naturally to entertain about it. Deeg Moines was a pioneer city in establishing a club for colored soldiers. Prominent officers of the War Camp Community Service are Joseph Lee, president; Myron T. Herrick, chairman of the National Finance Committee; William B. Joyce, vice chairman; John D. Rockefeller, Jr., member of the National Finance Committee, and ex-Senator W. Murray, member of the National Finance Committee. The War Camp Community Service is one of the seven organizations which will conduct the United War Work Campaign week of November 11 to raise 170,500,000.

Y MILLS - - TENNESSEE TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES Sunday was a great day of rejoicing at the Tabernacle Baptist Church. With what joy the news was received that the ban had been removed and that we could again come together in the house of the Lord was proven by the great number that attended each of the services. The superintendent was greeted with an unusually large routine of scholars. Sunday morning services were well attended, and as each one by request of the pastor offered their beloved ones that were still walking in darkness to the church for prayer, the Holy Ghost was felt all over the house and our souls were made to rejoice. The pastor Rev H. Hines, filled the church Sunday afternoon, subject of discourse "Signs of the Times." The sermon was indeed a masterpiece of eloquence, one that will remain in the hearts of those who were present. Sunday night marked the opening of our revival. Several responded to the call for penitents and we were blessed with one convert. The services will be con- tinued indefinitely.

HELEN ADAM MOORE IN THE CITY Among the latest workers to arrive in the city is Mrs. Helen Adam Moore, who comes direct from Columbus, Ohio to do Y. W. C. A. work out at the Government Powder plant. Mrs. Moore arrived Monday night, and on Tuesday morning she reported to the authorities to begin her work. She is the wife of Rev. Elbert W. Moore who pastors the Second Baptist Church at Columbus, Ohio, and is the recording secretary of the Women's National Baptist Convention. During her stay in the city, which is said will extend over a few months, her entire time will be given to the herit work of the young women employed by the government and the contractors in the big plant. Mrs. Moore has had quite a number of social placement work in the large cities of the East, and she has abroad, most of the time in England and Scotland, which makes her fully acquainted with the workers of every nationality doing this forward Christian work. MISS CARYE NAPIER LAID TO REST All that was mortal of the late Miss Carye Napier was laid to rest with impressive and solemn ceremonies after a brief illness during which time she passed into the great beyond. The services were held at the Napier residence on 15th Avenue, N., and while it was not a church of public funeral, because the ban has been put on by the health authorities, scores of the intimate friends of the Napier family were there mingling their tears and offering their sympathy to the bereaved. The services were conducted by the Rev. T. M. Broomfield, pastor of the Howard Congregational Church where the deceased was a member, and where just preceding the Sunday of the funeral she had taken an active part in the Sunday school and church work. Prayer was offered by Rev. Croethwaite, the obituary was read Dr. Broomfield, who also preached the funeral sermon, assisted by Rev. Dr. W. Hellington, Rev. Preston Taylor and Dr. A. McKinzie. Several selections were rendered by the Howard Congregational choir with special numbers from Wisk. There were an exceptionally large number of floral offerings come from friends far and near, while messages of condolence and telegrams poured in thick and fast. In the obituary it was shown that a beautiful life had just passed into the great beyond even though she was but a young woman. She had attended the city schools, graduated from Piskl University and finished her business course of the Northern colleges. She also attended Tuskegee Institute and in the city schools, and was at the time of her death employed at Piskl University. LIMIT TO HIS PATRIOTISM Man Who Wanted to Exact Extra Hour of Work Could Not Accept The Labor Commissioner's Suggestion. At a recent conference of labor officials from various States which was held in Washington a representative from the West told of a manufacturer who asked for a permit to work women employed in his factory 1 hours a day, when the State laws set the limit at 54 hours a week. "I have invested thousands of dollars in liberty bonds and war savings stamps," said the manufacturer. "I ar doing all possible for the war. My plant is engaged on Government contracts, and it is imperative that I should be able to run the extra hour a day." "You make your plea from purely patriotic reasons?" answered the labor official. "Absolutely on that ground." Absolutely on that ground. "Then, of course, you will be willing to give the profits earned by this extra time to the women workers. The law is for their protection, and the extra money would enable them to command help in their homes and otherwise ease the strain of long hours." The manufacturer turned on his heel and went away without pressing his "nutriotie" claim. KEEPING UP WITH THE FIGHT ING MAN AS HE GOES ON. "Red Cross Bulletin." The wideening scope of American army activities in France is reflected in the increased demand being made on the American Red Cross as shown in a report of the War Council: "As a result of the recent severe fighting in which our men took part, there has been a great increase in the hospital and home work of the relief organization. During the month of August, Red Cross workers received and answered 10,000 letters from anxious relatives in the United States seeking information about loved ones in the fighting ranks. Many letters were also written for soldiers who wished to learn something about the folks at home. "Seven new hospital recreation hut were established during the month, making a total of seventeen now maintained by the Red Cross in France. The organization is operatin 27 dispensaries in the cities and towns near the front, many of which are short of physicians, for the benefit of the civilian population. In August these dispensaries treated 34,250 persons, 25,000 of this number being children. Red Cross educational exhibits were attended by 380,000 during the month." There are many soldiers. In our forces abroad that will have no one to remember them Christmas. Think of it—fighting for liberty and the cause of right for all peoples, giving their lives maybe, and certainly themselves every day, and yet when Christmas Day comes there will be no cartoon of good things unless we see to it that, these boys are not forgotten. The Red Cross never forgets circumstances like this, the Greatest Mother surely looks after the hardiness of our soldier sons on this day of universal "good will toward men." It is a big job and all of us will have the privilege of helping to make some soldier boy happy on Christmas, for Nashville is to have her quota given her for this very purpose. Mr E. R. Black, Manager of the Southern Division, announces that 20,000 of these cartons will be sent to the Southern Division and these will be apportioned to the various chapters—Nashville will have her share and each one of them will be filled for a boy who would otherwise be to go without a Christmas remembrance. Anybody who is willing to fill one of these cartons will apply to Mrs. W. Granberry at the Tulane Headquarters of the Red Cross for all information. The cartoon name of the boy and so on will be furnished you. These rooms are open day from 10 to 5 and on Wednesday and Saturday nights the rooms are open from 7 to 9. This gives everybody a chance to get information at the time most convenient to the kid! Go and find out about this. Don't forget "our boys" on Christmas Day. PITTSBURGH OFFICE MAKES FINE RECORD. Many Organizations of the City Aid in Work of United State Employment Service. The opening of a separate women's division of the United States Employment Service in Pittsburgh creates an office in which all public women's employment interests of a large industrial section have been united. This office opened in Pittsburgh, Pa. on September 16, with professional, industrial, general clerical and department store, industrial, and domestic sections in charge of women who are already experienced in these fields in the Pittsburgh district. The Pittsburgh office, which opened The Pittsburgh office, which opened NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8. 1918 with orders for 5,000 women, is located at Sixth and Smithfield Streets. in rooms formerly occupied by the Pennsylvania Ticket office, and was chosen for its accessibility to all sections of the city. Among the offices which have been merged into the woman's division are a labor bureau of the Council of Jewish Women, the women's division of the State bureau of employment for the Pittsburgh district, the Y. W. C. A. bureau of employment, the vocational bureau of Pittsburgh College Club, and the Federal Bureau of Employment, which has heretofore handled placement of women in connection with the Civil Service Commission in the general offices of the Employment Service. WHERE WOMEN MUST HELP THEMSELVES. Labor Commissioner Pointed Out Difficulties in Safeguarding Them When They Do Not Cooperate With Efforts for Their Protection. While the Government is doing all possible to safeguard women who are taking the places of men withdrawn from industry to serve in the war, it is imperative that the women themselves should cooperate with the Department of Labor. At a recent conference of State officials charged with the enforcement of State labor laws which was held in Washington. it was brought out that in many cases women choose night work and prefer long hours. Both of these tendencies are easily explained. Night work enables women who have household carees to look after their homes, and they know that their children are safe in the bed while they are working. Moreover, they have time for necessary shopping and for recreation. Long hours mean more pay, and women in industry have been always and less than men, so that it is necessary to give added time and strength in order to obtain equal pay. The remedy for the wholesale employment of women at night and for overwork is in the establishment of equal pay for equal work. It has been proved that in many cases where women in large numbers work at night the wages they receive are less than men could command. It is the influence that if the standard of equal pay for equal work were maintained employers would not be so likely to employ women at night. In view of experience in Great Britain and France since the world war began, the United States is making every effort to avoid the exploitation of women and to protect them from labor conditions that will break down health and affect not only this generation but the next. The high standard of education among workers will enable them to look beyond the present and to prepare for the future, labor experts believe, and as more women are absorbed by the factories and other lines of industry the need of conserving strength will be recognized. While manufacturers are providing rest facilities, and while the Government is watchful everywhere the Government is necessary that the women should realize that it is their patroltie as well their personal duty to comply will all the provisions of the laws for their protection.

TEAM NO. 8 FINAL DATE TEAM NO. 3 FINAL REPORT. Most of the teams and the captains with their workers in the recent Liberty Loan Drive have been cast up their reports and trying to get in touch with all the workers. Mrs. Lovell Landers, who is captain of Team No. 3 in zone 4, sent out a card of thanks to the workers of her team, which consisted of Mrs. C. C.

HENDRICKS HEADS INSTRUC TION DEPARTMENT AUTO The Colored Branch of the Nashville Young Men's Christian Association, through its Secretary and Committee of Management, has about completed plans for putting in permanent operation a Y. M. C. A. Auto School where young men may become proficient as chaufeurs by spending a part of their off hours in extra study. A few friends of the work have been dropping in and they judge the splendid array of equipment which is on hand that the school bids fair immediate and permanent success. Mr. Henry Hendricks of Oklahoma City, who has had some twelve years' experience in all branches of the automobile business, has been permanently engaged by the Colored Auto School Department as chief instructor. The first class is now forming with an enrollment to date of some twenty students. As is the custom in the educational departments of the Y. M. C. A., provisional is made for students to attend their classes at spare time or even nights. The course can thus be taken without affecting one's new envelope in the least. Owners of automobiles will find it greater to their advantage to enroll in the Automobile School. It will really surprise one to know how little the backrows above his own car, all though operating it from day to day. In addition to informing oneself about his automobile, there is a distinct saving which will make an excellent showing in the difference in his month to month unseen expenses on his car. In times such as these when the cells come quick and fast to buy thrift stamps, liberty bonds XVI-GLOBE-PRICE 11-7 and to make contributions to the war activities, one had better keep an eye single to whatever has a tenency to reduce unnecessary expenses. This is the patriotic duty of even the owner of an automobile. For further information as to how easily this can be done, drop in at the colored Y. M. C. A. any time day or night. PLAN FOR ASSISTANCE TO THE CHAPLAINS THROUGH THE VOLUNTARY SERVICE OF CLERGYMEN IN THE CAMPS: Those who have taken an interest in the important service rendered in our Army camps by the camp pastors and were alarmed by the possible consequence of a recent order of the Adjutant General terminating the services of these voluntary workers will be gratified to learn that the War Department has approved a plan which voluntary services of clergy men are to continue to be available to supplement the ministrations of the regularly commissioned chapter. The matter of the voluntary service of the clergymen in the camps has been the subject of frequent conference between representative of the churches and the War Department, which has taken a sincere and sympathetic interest in the moral and religious welfare of the men. It is earnestly desirous of encouraging and assisting the chaplains in their important work and has given careful attention to the considerations urged by the churches in favor of continuing the services of the camp pastors. Through the General War-Time Commission of the Churches a conference was arranged between Dr. Frederick P. Kepkel, Third Assistant Secretary of War and, a Committee which included representatives selected by the several Protestant denominations. As a result of this conference, and at the suggestion of Secretary Kepkel, a committee was appointed to confer with representatives of the War Department. After thorough discussion of the whole problem this committee formulated a plan by which the denominations are to nominate clergymen qualified to render efficient service in the camps. Their names, after approval by the Executive Committee of the General War-Time Commission of the Churches, will be filled with the War Department and their services placed at the disposal of the regular chaplains for assistance in the immense task of ministering to the religious needs of the thousands of men in the cantonments of this country. The text of the order follows: War Department Washington, October 11, 1918. Following the receipt of many let. ters, some commending but many pro- testing, the War Department's in- structions dated July 24, 1918, referring to the services of Camp Pastors and Voluntary Chaplains, a committee representing the General War Time Commission of the Churches met representatives of the War Department at the Office of F. P. Keppel, Third Assistant Secretary, on October 3rd. The following is a statement of con- clusions resulting from that conference, which have been approved by eight of the nine gentlemen present. Attention is called to Sections No. 4 and No. 5, War Department's general memorandum A. G. 68044. Subject "Services of Clergymen as Camp Pastors and Voluntary Chaplains" which permits the following plan for directing, hereafter, the religious work among our soldiers. A. The importance of training our Chaplains for training overseas must be emphasized. B. The help of clergymen to whom the churches o f marmora have looked for inspiration and leadership, is appreciated and an arrangement is desired by which such men, barred perhaps by advanced age or personal responsibilities from entering the Army as Chaplains, may continue to help at The Training Camps. C. The War Department desires the best efforts of all the churches, Protestants, Catholic and Jewish, to influence experienced and capable men, who are eligible, to apply at once for commissions as Chaplains. D. The names of such men as may be submitted by the Churches to the Executive Committee of the General War-Time Commission of Churches of similar committees representing the Catholic and Jewish churches and by those committees a certified list may be furnished for the use of the War Department. E. When each of these men have been approved by the War Department the attention of all Chaplains will be called to these certified lists and they will be permitted to invite, with the approval of the Commanding Officer, such representative men to take the camp for the purpose of helping the Chaplains with the work among enlisted men and officers. H. The War Department looks with favor upon efforts of the various Churches, located in cities or communities adjacent to camps, to shape their services with special reference to the needs of the soldiers on leave and to explain to them the attention of their men to such service when provided. I. An important result, very much desired and expected under the plan proposed, will be the assurance that the visiting clergymen will keep the "folks back home" informed of conditions in the camps.

New York, Nov. 5th—As the Negro forces of the United States Army are being augmented from day to day, both here and abroad, the Knights of Columbus Committee on War Activities have taken coziness of the need of having colored secretaries follow their brother fighters and bring to them the much-needed consolation and comfort during their hours of trial and anxiety. Several colored secretaries are now stationed in cantonments throughout the country. The work being done by, the Knights of Columbus has appealed to them to such an extent that they and many others have expressed the desire of going overseas to carry the work right to the front lines. The K. of C. is operating in American camps and overseas under the direction of the National Catholic War Council. The work of colored secretaries in camps here is proving wonderfully successful and is winning the warm approval of the Negro soldiers. From an article appearing in the latest edition of a newspaper for soldiers at Fort Funston, Fort Rilev, Kans., one may get a vivid idea of the appreciation the Negro soldiers have for the K. of C. "The work of the Knights of Columbus organization is doing in providing recreational buildings and proner home surrounding for the colored troops at Camp Funston and other cantonments in the country is a patriotic inspiration to every member of that race; it is service that stamps it with the highest spirit of loyalty. "An interview with K. of C. Secretary Titus Alexander, of Los Angeles, Cal., a graduate of Oberlin and a man of marked executive ability in this work in the far West, best outlines the scope of the useful service. "Mail is sent out twice each day, Secretary Titus said 'and we average about 6,000 letters each week. During the movement o' troops the outgoing mail is much heavier. These figures are only for the letters written and mailed in our building. During a recent movement of troops we sent in one day seventeen sacks of mail, mostly parcel post. "Recently a colored woman from Mississippi came into the Knights of Columbus building No. 3, looking for her son. She said: "I came right from the train to the K. of C. Building No. 3, for I knew I would find my son there. He writes all his letters from there." "In the K. of C. Building for the entertaining of colored soldiers there are two writing desks stretched the entire length of the room, at the back of which are magazines. We have two dozen tables for the players of checkers and dominoes, punching bass, boxing gloves, hand balls, base balls, basket balls, foot balls, etc. A pianola is installed on the stage. Mass is said every morning at 6:30 and Sunday mornings at 8:30. All music is provided as a phonograph and movies." The article continues by stating that in addition to looking after these comforts and pleasures of the colored soldier, the K. of C. Secretary meets the troops on arrival. "There he lectures them a bit on parrotlism," it states, "and what is expected of them at this, their first opportunity to make good and to measure up to the full expectancy of the world; also to ask them for their discarded clothing for the Belgians MUCH TO DO AT HOME IN WAR TIME. While Men Are Giving Their Lives Women Must Give Their Work. Writing from France several months ago, when he acknowledged the receipt of $1,000 sent to the American Committee for Devastated France, Lieuil Carl A. Johnson said: "Money he has ceased to be a part of our lives here. We gave our money away and we will give our lives, if need be, that our mothers may not need to suffer the fate of these women." Lieuil Johnson did give his life. Miss Elizabeth Perkins, of the committee, in referring to the service of this American officer said: "We are not asked to give our lives, we at home are asked only to give our best. Whether that be of our money or our work, let that be the best we know how to give. Our men abroad can give their lives but once—at home we give our work six days a week to dedicate the hour of every day with the spirit of heroic brotherhood which animates our fighting men, for it is this spirit of service which is bound to win the war." AID WAR PROGRAM Patriotic Business Men Working For $1 a Year in Behalf of Training and Dilution Service. Business men, eager to do their part in the war, are rendering great service to a comparatively new but highly important organization in the Department of Labor—the Training and Dilution Service, the work of which includes the training of many millions of workers so that they will be able to undertake skilled work. The service will also supervise the introduction of this great civilian army into industry, to prevent slowing up production by "diluting" the skilled workers at too rapid a pace. A number of prominent men, heads of large industries, have given up their own work for the time being and have accepted positions at $1 a year in the Government service to assist Director Charles T. Clayton in the tremendous task. These men are "voluntary ambassadors" of the Service, and they receive nothing but their $1 a year and their traveling expenses. They are officially designated special agents, an their work consists mainly in explaining the purpose and facilities of the Service to employers within their respective districts. For example, Dr. Clifton R. Atchison, an Atlanta manufacturer and one of the most widely known business men of the South, is assisting Mr. Clayton in this way. In the northern part of the Gulf District which includes all the Gulf States far west as Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and the southern parts of Ohio, and Indiana—E. F. Du Brul, of the Miller, Du Brul & Peter Co., Cincinnati has undertaken a similar mission. President Straus, of Macy's great New York store, is a special agent in his own district. Morton B. Gilbert, of New York and Seattle, is a special agent at large to the textile industry; John C. Spence and Aldus C. Higgins, New England representatives on the list of special agents, are known personally or by reputation to every manufacturer in their district. The latter is the son of the late Prof. Higgins, widely known as a philosopher and inventor. Such men as these, who are giving their time to the Government without hope of reward, are doing much to establish the Training and Dilution Service firmly in public esteem. The great task with which they are intrusted supplements very closely the work of the United States Employment Service, for only through the training afforded by Mr. Clayton's organization can the war-labor program of the Employment Service be successfully discharged. 1930 A [Image of a man in formal attire with a white shirt and dark tie].

Dr. H. L. P. Jones, passed away Sunday morning. The news spread all over the city and numerous measures of concern and bereavement and family. Arrangements for the funeral services were made as speedily as possible to be held at the St. Paul A. M. E. Church of which Dr. Jones is the pastor. --- A WORTHY APPEAL. The National Race Congress of America at its last annual meeting, October 1, 2, 3, authorized that a Commission be sent to France at the earliest possible date to cheer and encourage our soldier boys "over there," and to contribute in whatever way they can to their comfort and welfare. Prominent men of the race compose the commission, which will send $4,000 to meet the expense of this commission and we issue this appeal to the public asking for contributions toward this fund. All checks or money order for this purpose should be made payable to A. A. Graham, corresponding and financial secretary, who will promptly acknowledge with official receipt. The money should be sent to A. A. Graham, Box 177, Phoebus, Va., or headquarters, D. C. N. Washington, D. C. In order to get the commission over there at an early date it should be in hand by Dec. 1, 1978. We earnestly pray that every unit of our congress, that the churches and lodges throughout the country and every one interested in the welfare of our soldiers in France will respond to this appeal at once. We call upon pastors especially to put this matter before churches. The flowing amounts have been bledged: R. F. Williams, Texas..... $100 00 S. J. Walls, N. C..... 100 00 Walter Draden, N.

Dr. Stokes is also the treasurer of the incorporated branch of the National Baptist Convention. At the age the pastored Clarksville, Tenn., he is known among the older people of the state for his religious work. It is reported that he has the largest Baptist church in Montgomery. New Methods Reduced Greatly Waste by Labor Turnover, and Teach Unskilled Workers Quickly. What training means in speeding up production in all the munition plants and other factors engaged on Government contracts was illustrated by two calls made by H. E. Miles, now with the Training and Dilution Service of the Department of Labor, of which Charles T. Clayton is director. In one war factory where the old methods of "breaking-in" still were followed 15,000 persons had been employed since January 1, and of this number only 4,500 had stayed with the company. As the estimated cost per capita of this labor turnover is $50 the loss can be easily figured. The output of this factory is necessary to our Army and the armies of the Allies, and if we are raised to a high degree of efficiency if they could be relieved of the simpler tasks by the substitution of trained workers. The company operating this plant will probably begin extensive training, as the success of other manufacturers has shown its possibilities. The second visit was made at a factory that now maintains a most successful training room. In the month before this vestibule school was started the company hired 3,100 persons, at an average cost of $50 each. More than 1,600 left that same month, thus incurring a loss roughly estimated at $80,000 plus waste in poor work done, which brought the cost of increasing the force 1,500 to about $106 each. The training room was opened in April and, as it was locally impossible to procure men, high-class women constituted the majority of the new workers. By May the rate of training was 7,600 per annum, with substantially no outlay in getting the applicants, which included school-teachers and other women desirous of rendering direct service in the war. At first the foreman thought little of the training room and were willing to accept for the factory only 20 per cent of the number of employees needed from the list of new workers. In May the foreman took 40 per cent and in May 60 per cent from the training room. The latest report from this factory shows that only 2 or 3 per cent of the workers leave each month. Experience had shown that about 10 per cent of the training-room workers leave, and that the elimination takes place before it is a serious incident. The production of the employees obtained from the training room in this factory has proved to be about 25 per cent greater than that of those sent from employment offices. STUCK TO JOBS THROUGH EX TREME HEAT. Workmen at Ohio Coke Ovens Made Splendid Record During the Summer. Workmen at the Ohio coke ovens made a splendid record of service during the summer, and plan to maintain it so long as the war lasts. The region was visited by several hot spells during the warm months, during which time the work in the ovens became almost intolerable. The men, however, mindful of the Nation's needs, refused to take advantage of the hot weather to ask for layoffs, and stuck to their uncomfortable jobs as steadfastly as though they were defending trenches against the Germans. During the hot weather they were not able to work so efficiently as during comfortable weather, but the reports from the mines that have reached the Department of Labor indicate that they did their best at all times. READY FOR INTERNATIONAL MEETING. Mexican and American Labor Will Hold Conference at Laredo, Beginning November 13. Arrangements have been completed for the great international labor conference at Laredo, Tex. beginning November 13. Delegates will be present, it is expected, from many Latin-American countries besides Mexico, although, naturally, the chief interest in the meeting is for Mexico and the United States. Governors of many Mexican States will attend, American border States will be represented. The organized-labor movement, in Mexico has developed along much the same lines as that in America, and the conference is relied upon to strengthen the bonds that already exist between the workers of the two Republics. The welfare of Mexican laborers has been kept in mind by the Carranza Government, and the progress of labor legislation in that Republic will be a subject for discussion. The work of American labor during the war and effects of the war upon the labor situation will form another topic of interest. The conference is expected to assist in the movement of Mexican labor in the United States during the war emergency, for the official labor organizations of both are anxious to promote good relations between the Governments. The imminent migration of Mexicans has been filitated by the removal of certain restrictions, and they are particularly needed on farms, railroads and mining projects in the Southwest.

State Also Remits a Part of the Annual Repayment for Each Child Born to the Borrower After Loan Is Made. What France is doing to aid the soldiers and sailors disabled in the present war will be described in the next number of the Monthly Labor Review, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor. The article deals with the loans authorized to French war pensioners as an aid in establishing homes. By a recent law loans are authorized to former soldiers and marines in receipt of an invalidity pension paid by the State for injuries received for infirmities contracted during the war; to widows in receipt of a pension or annuity paid by the State or by the French marine provider fund because of the death of their husbands in injuries or sickness due to the war; and to dependents similarly eligible. Individual loans secured by mortgages are authorized for the purpose of acquiring, managing, transforming and reconstructing small rural properties, without regard to the area of which the value, not including expense and insurance costs, does not exceed 10,000 francs ($1,830). Repayment of the loan may extend over a period of 25 years, unless the age of the borrower at the date the last installment becomes NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1918.

MAN-POWER PROBLEMS CAUSE COOPTRATION. Monthly Labor Review Tells How Labor Difficulties Were Met and Solved in England. England's man-power problems resulting from the war have led to many interesting methods of local co-operation, according to the next number of the Monthly Labor Review, about to be published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor. This outlines the manner in which certain situations were met. The Review thus describes some of these conditions: "In one borough in Kent all the grocers signed a resolution agreeing to carry on the business of any man then engaged in the grocery trade who should be called to service, the owner of the business to chose one of the number to manage it, while an assistant to do the manual work should be hired. Nearly all of the other industries in the town had similar schemes. In another city all those engaged in the boot-repairing trade formed a limited liability company. The owner of the factory was taken over, and each man was allowed 10 per cent as rental on the value of his machine. If a boot repairer toms the colors his wife takes the boots from the customers and the association collects and repairs them and returns them again to the woman, who receives about 12 1-2 per cent on the transaction, amounting to an average of about $10 per week. The results of the scheme, in addition to the preservation of the business of those in the service, have been better working conditions and increased profits for the men. The problem of cross deliveries in milk—that is, many carts on one street—has been met by dividing the city into several exclusive exchanging customers among themselves with the condition that if a man goes outside of his district he goes into the Army." The Review deals at length with man-power problems in England, showing how they were met by improved organization of industry under Government supervision, and explains the working of the man-power administration. WHAT CANADA'S INDUSTRY HAS DONE. Though Not a Manufacturing Country, She Has Supplied 60,000,000 Shells Already. An inspiration for American workmen and American industrial managers is found in the magnificent record of Canada in supplying munitions and other material for the defense of democracy. Never a great manufacturing nation, Canada, nevertheless, recognized early in the struggle that it was up to her to send not only men and food to the allies but munitions as well. She rose splendidly to the task, and the efforts of her workingmen and industrial leaders have resulted in the sending of 60,000,000 shells thus far. The value of the munitions supplied is $1,000,000,000 and another $200,000,000 worth soon will have been sent overseas. In shipbuilding the Canadian Government has outlined an ambitious plan which is being carried out admirably by Canadian yards. This year will witness the turning out of about 500,000 tons of new shipping, two-thirds of steel and the rest of wood—about one-fourth of the British output for the year 1917. Even in aircraft Canada is doing her share. Entering this unexplored field within a year, she is now turning out about 350 airplanes a month with a total to date of 2,500. And Canada is manning the planes, too. Altogether a notable record calculated to stimulate American workmen to renewed effort to do their larger part in war work without stint. Mrs. Franklin P. Iams, examiner in charge, has been chairman of women in industry of the women's committee, Council of National Defense. She has been active in employment problems of Pennsylvania for many years and helped draft the act under which the Pennsylvania Department of Labor Department and Industry opened the State Employment bureau.

Scott Voices Earnest Protest at 12,000,000 American Negroes Against Returning Oppressed Black People to German Tyranny. Urges Larger Liberties for African Allies, Under Government of an International Commission—One Member of Commission to Be a Colored American—How Black Men of the World Have Aided in War for Freedom and Democracy. New York, November 4.—At a monster patriotic meeting Saturday night at Carnegie Hall, under the auspices of the Circle of Negro War Relief, the principal speaker was Irvin S. Cobb, the famous war correspondent, who has recently returned from the French front, where he was a witness to some of the most important battles of the present conflict of the Allies against Germany. Mr. Cobb's theme was "The Negro Soldier," and his remarks were of especial interest because of his intimate contact with the colored American warriors during their trying "baptisms of fire." Prominent among other speakers was Emmanuel J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, and for eighteen years the confidential secretary of the late Booker T. Washington. He was appointed a little more than a year ago by Secretary Newton D. Baker as a Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, to advise him with reference to the many delicate problems growing out of the relation of the 12,000,000 Negroes of this country to the war, and to indicate to his people how they might render the most effective aid in bringing victory to the American arms. The Negro's Part in the World-wide War. Dr. Scott prefaced his address with the declaration that "this is the people's war—not a white man's war, not a black man's war, but a war of all the people under the Stars and Stripes for the preservation of human liberty throughout the world." In this conflict for liberty and worldwide democracy Dr. Scott said: "The Negro is proving to be a notable and inspiring figure." He warned his people not to be deceived by unofficial statements or expressions that peace is near, declaring that an enemy will never come with the enemy is decisively beaten, and pledge the continuance of the loyal black battlers in the forefront of strife to the very finish—until an honorable peace has been enforced or obtained. Nearly 400,000 Colored Americans Under Arms. Dr. Scott noted that there are now overseas, "at grips with the master infancy of the civilized world of awaiting the call to active combat, nearly 400,000 gallant black soldiers, the "fruit and flower of the Negro race." These, he said, represent a response of more than 50 per cent of the total number of Negroes registered in the draft, and a larger proportion of those who true of other racial groups registered under the first draft. "And this number," added Dr. Scott, "takes no account of the sturdy, upstanding men of the race who are members of the four 'crack' regiments of the Regular Army, nor of the 12,000 brawny men who came into service through the National Guard organizations, such as 'Fighting Fifteen' of New York, which has, along with others, won imperishable fame on the battlefield in France." He pointed with pride to the fact that while the Negro represented only 8 per cent of the first draft registration, the race has actually contributed 15 per cent to the military record and that the white draft. He noted also that in every hundred in the grst draft examined for service, proximately 30 per cent of the Negroes were accepted, while only 24 per cent of the whites were accepted, a difference of 12 per cent in the Nerroes' favor for physical quality. This, he contended, dissatisfies the anceint yarn about the black race being deteriorating among people. He also noted a new colour claimed exemption, from military service than did the whites. Dr. Scott further declared that the war, "grim-visaged and ruthless as it is, has served or afforded the Negroes an opportunity once more to prove their unbounded, unfaltering loyalty," their 100 per cent Americanism and to demonstrate their immunity from insidious German propaganda. The war has made for the advancement of the material welfare of the Negroes, and to combat the Negro had less than a dozen commissioned officers; now he has more than 1,200, all highly qualified and forward-looking men. From an army of but four regiments, with only infantry and cavalry; the race has now its 400,000 men represented in every conceivable branch of the service, and the reports from officers from General Pershing down, indicate that these men are giving an excellent account of themselves. Dr. Scott has been from French and American officers testifying to the gallantry and valor of the colored men under the severest shell-fire and how they had held the line intact in many instances under the most trying circumstances. Urges Self-Government for Colonies Under International Commission. After roting in necous cases where black men had been awarded the biennial rolx de Guerre and paying a tribut to the prizedless labors of the black soldiers of America and elsewhere to "make the world safe for democracy." Dr. Scott made a somewhat startling plea for a solemn guarantee of international protection and larger liberties for the darker races of the world, registering a fervent protest against any policy that plagued African colonies and urging a form of self-government for these oppressed peoples, under which shall be a colored American "to voice the inarticulate yearnings of that host of exploited and pillaged people." Proteins Against Restoring African Colonies to Germany. Elaborat) g this point with reference to the future of the colonies wrested from German domination and Tyranny, Dr. Scott described the revolting cruelties perpetuated upon the natives in the African dependencies, noting an official report of Edmund H. L. Gorses, Secretary of the Interior for the South African Union, which tells of the enslavying of men and the outraging of women, of hangings and floggings and wholesale massaresses, with many tribes threatened with extinction. In Togo land, the oppression was especially rife, it is stated that the population fell off a million souls in less than two decades of murder and rapipe. "May we not, in this solemn hour, register our fervent pretest against any contemplation of restoring to Germany these African colonies she has so long oppressed and betrayed?" asked Dr. Scott. "It is too much to say that to restore these helpless knight to their formidable oppressors would be a terrible betrayal. Not the hour come in which men, even of Darkest Africa, may cry out for the right to elect or ordain their own destiny under an acceptable tuelage and guidance of enlightened men rather than under oppressive and cruel masters?" "Black men of America and Africa have helped to rout and huwble the Hun," continued Dr. Scott. "When civilization all but tottered to its doom, Senegalese, Algerian and Soudanese troops stayed the Hun and saved civilization to the world. Soon around the Peace Table representatives of the nations of the Earth are to gather. France and England in their hour of need have gladly accepted the allegiance and the assistance of tribes from Africa. A great and responsible duty now devolves upon the nations of the world to see that the people of other oppressed peoples, shall not be again placed under the iron heel of malignant oppressors. "In truth, the hour has come. In my opinion, when the world should declare that not only are these colonies not to be turned back to Germany, but to no other nation as well. "May not we, brothers by racial ties and blood sympathy of these African peoples, speak for them and call for their freedom, for their liberties, for the self-determination of their destiny AND FOR THE APPOINTMENT OF, AN INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION, which shall in future govern these colonies, AND UPON WHICH COMMISSION THERE SHOULD SIT A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE 126,000 CALLED PEOPLE OF AMERICA who represent the largest group of forward looking black people of the world. TO VOICE THE INARTICATE YEARNINGS OF THAT HOST OF EXPLOTTED AND PILLAGED PEOPLE!" ARE YOU READY TO SUPPORT SUCH A REQUEST? Pledges Loyalty of Negro Americans to Our Flag. In conclusion Dr. Scott said: "Till Victory and Peace come, we shall continue to pledge to the President of the United States and the national government all that we have and that we are, whether at the bleeding battle front; or wherever faithful service will count most toward winning the great war in which we are engaged. We are pledged to do everything that will help and nothing that will hamper our Government in winning this war for the honor, the independence and the sacred principles of Our Country, and the ultimate freedom of all mankind. "We can pllege no more-OUR COUNTRY EXPECTS: NO LESS!" 5 Conditions in Philadelphia Lead to New Methods of Interesting women in War Industries. Laborf recruiters to interest women in war work are anew development in the policy of the United States Employment Service, made necessary by the shortage of help at the Schuylkill Arsenal, where many soldiers uniforms could not be completed because of the lack of workers. The recruiters were stationed in the city hall courtyard, which is crossed by two of the city's principal streets. They have handed out thousands of slips calling the attention of women tooth emergencies used for their services in industrial work, and listing five officers in Philadelphia where women might enroll for war work. Reports received at Employment Service headquarters have shown that in many districts women are being substituted rapidly for met. whose places in industry have been lost vacant through their service in the Army or Navy.

SUPERINTENDENTS NAMED FOR WAR-TRAINING WORK Organization Is Perfected for Nation's Great Task of Fitting Untrained Workers for Skilled Jobs. Districts have been designated by the Training and Dilution Service of the Department of Labor as an administrative convenience, and in order to cooperate closely with the Nation's war program they have been made to conform to the production districts of the Ordnance Department. Along the river where nautical plants and other water objects abound the districts are small; in the West and South, on the other hand, the problem is one of covering a comparatively small number of plants in large stretches of territory. English experiences, so valuable in many other undertakings of the Labor Department, can be utilized but not copied in the training and dilution work, for the American organization, of which Charles T. Clayton is director, must cover an area 3,000 miles in extent from east to west and more than half as much from north to south. The problem is vastly greater and more difficult than that which has to be met abroad. The following are the districts, with their administrative officers as appointed by Mr. Clayton: District 1: A. L. Lewis, 30 Berwick State College, mass, superintendent of training; Alain C. Higgins, Norton Grindling Co., Worcester, special representative. District includes Maine New Hampshire, Vermont, Dhode Island, and eastern Massachusetts. District 2: E. J. H. Hanson, District Ordnance Office, 945 Main Street, Bridgeport, Conn., assistant superintendent. District includes Connecticut and western Massachusetts. District 3: Henry C. Austin, official station Rochester, N. Y., superintendent; H. T. Noyes, Rochester, special representative. District includes northern New York to the northern boundaries of Sullivan Ulster, Greene, and Columbia Counties. District 4: Fred F. Moran, 234 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., superintendent of training; Percy S. Straus, 1317 Broadway, New York, special representative. District includes southern New York and Hunterdon, Monmouth, Somerset, and Middlesex Counties, N. J.

Foreign-Born Residents of the United States Who Wish to Become Citizens Will Be Aided by Bureau of Naturalization. Textbooks on citizenship for aliens, in which are included not only many important facts regarding the Government of the United States, but a great amount of information of value in the home and in business life, have been prepared by Raymond F. Crist, Deputy Commissioner of Naturalization, in the United States Department of Labor. The schools of the Nation will be intrusted with the task of giving instruction in citizenship to the great numb of foreign-born residents of this country and the textbook prepared by Mr. Crist, with the aid of the teachers of citizenship classes is designed to fit aliens to fill useful places in the life of the community and to fulfill loyally their duties to the land of their adoption. The book, an attractive little work durably bound in a flexible cover, is arranged to serve not only as a textbook of government and an exposition of American ideals, but to assist in the education of the student in the English language. The first new lessons are prepared in a way to suggest to the teacher methods of drill for classes more or less deficient in knowledge of English. The machinery, methods and theory of government are then discussed; the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence are reprinted as the foundations of American liberties, and the various ways in which the Government touches the citizen in his daily life—through the post office and other agencies—are described fully. The Bureau of Naturalization makes no attempt to induce foreigners to become citizens, but it offers every facility in its power to those who are desirous of making America their home, and aims not only to instruct them in their rights, duties and privileges under the NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8. 1918 American law, but also in American manners and customs which may differ from practices in their native lands. A highly important development of this work has ben the recent establishment of information bureau for aliens, where foreigners may obtain without charge information on almost any conceivable subject. The object of the Bureau of Naturalization in all its activities is to make the alien feel that America is friendly to him and that the Government seeks to aid him in his work and in his home life. The textbook is being prepared in large numbers for distribution among the foreign born, but it does not become the property of the student until he has attained American citizenship. KEEPING WORKMEN ON THE JOB Factories in Many Places Have Adopted Premium Plan to Insure Full-Time Work Each Week. Keeping workmen on their jobs is vital to war production, but in many places it has proved a difficult task. A premium system and an inquiry and follow-up method have been introduced by various factories as a means of promoting better attendance, and some interesting information regarding the success of these plans has been received by the Division of Economics, of the Information and Education Service Department of Labor. A small department in a town of 10,000 population employs 100 men and 100 women. This factory pays for a full day Saturday, provided the employee works 54 hours a week. An additional award of 15 per unit is paid all employees remaining until the en dof the quarter. A large New York establishment has introduced a plan of adding to employees' pay, provided they are willing to give regular attendance. In April, before the plan was tried, absences totaled 8,171 hours a month or the 800 employees. In May the absences were cut to 6,828 hours and in June to 5,846. In July, despite vacations the absences rose only to 6,848 hours. In a Pennsylvania plant a 5 per cent award is given each six months for who remains in the company's employee during the six-month period. A special bonus of 10 per cent is given to men who work six days each week. Still another plan is used in a great Pennsylvania plant where 3,000 women and 17,000 men are employed. Those employees who are not absent more than one day in a month receive a 6 per cent award, provided their tardiness does not exceed one hour for the month. If the record is continued for a second month, the bonus is 7 per cent, and for a third month 8 per cent. Any failure to keep up the record means that the next award paid will return to 6 per cent. Special awards payable at the end of every fortnight are given in another Pennsylvania factory to employees whose attendance record is perfect. A new Jersey plant, with a 10-hour working day, gives a 5 per cent bonus to men who work 55 hours a week. That is full time, for Saturday is a half day. Deductions are made for tardiness, which also entails forfeiture of the bonus. Connecticut and New York plants using the premium system report excellent success in reducing absenteeism. In one New York plant a combination of the bonus and follow-up systems has been introduced. In a Massachusetts factory, records kept of absences are followed up promptly. Those who are sick or injured are given advice or medical treatment. Another Massachusetts plant has found the plan of remedying an injury very effective, and one inspector takes a whole time to ascertaining these causes. The usual plan is to visit employees at their home, and to find the reason for their absence from work. Those who are merely loading are urged to get back o the job. One Massachusetts company follows up absentees by automobile, sending to their homes at once as soon as absence is noted. A large Michigan factory found that employees at first resented the arrival of company visitors at their homes, but care in the choice of the visitor overcame the difficulty. The visitor is now welcome at any home. The manage imbuct urges, however that the person visit the visitor of the utmost importance. New Service of Department of Labor, to Fit 9,000,000 Workers for Skilled Jobs. Aided by Educational Institutions. Cooperation between the Government and the schools of America is making possible what is perhaps the greatest educational feat ever attempted—the training of 9,000,000 unskilled workers men and women, to fit them for skilled positions in modern industry. This great task is a part of the war-emergency program, and is designed not only to fill as promptly as possible the vacancies left in the ranks of skilled mechanics by enlistment and the draft, but also to supply the greatly increased requirements of wartime production. The training and Dilution Service of the Department of Labor, is in charge of this project. The Service now occupies a three-story building in Washington, near the main building of the Labor Department, and is building up its field service throughout the country. Mr. Clayton has divided the country into districts, the boundaries being identical with those of the production districts of the Ordinance Department, and has named superintendents to direct the work in each locality. The cooperation of schools is being enlisted, and as a result the State of Connecticut, through Gov. Holcomb, has turned over to the Service its trade schools, located at Putnam, South Manchester, New Britain, Torrington, Danbury, Bridgeport and New Haven for training purposes. These are among the most practical schools in the country, and have already distinguished themselves by their work in war training. They will immediately begin training men who, when graduated, will act as instructors in factory schools or elsewhere, for the great numbers of men and women who will be fitted for war-time jobs. Competent shopmen who need training in instructional methods will be enabled to obtain it through evening classes. The Worcester (Mass.) Trade School institution, is Gladstone College, Drone institution, is Gladstone College, Drone Institute, and Spring Garden Institute, in Philadelphia; are already at work giving similar instruction. Through the president of the Board of Education of Milwaukee, the facilities of the Boys' Trade School of that city have quam eiq epjsw squ noqnqpe who been made available. Chicago is enthusiastic over the work and the board burn School, a large three-story building, and made an appropriation for installation of power and provision for equipment. Local manufacturers are providing machinery, which is being installed by officers of the Training and Dilution Service and a committee of the Western Efficiency Society. New York and other cities are making arrangements to extend through the Training and Dilution Service all the aid they can give to the great industrial educational project so vital to the winning of the war. INVESTIGATE NEGRO LABOR PROBLEMS. Committees Organized by Director of Negro Economics Undertaking Important Work in South. Two important investigations connected with the labor problems of the war are now under way in the Southern States—one to determine what truth, if any, there is in charges that negroes are quitting work because they receive allotments from relatives in the military service, and the other to examine proposals that negro women be subjected to compulsory-work laws. The object of organizations built up by Dr. George E. Haynes, Director of Negro Economies of the United States Department of Labor, is to make the relations between the white and colored populations of the Souther States as congenial as possible, and to prevent discrimination against the negro in labor affairs. A canvass of the colored people of Florida is being undertaken with a view to impress upon them the necessity of coluntary aid, to the best of their ability, in the Government's war labor program. This project, it is believed, will overcome the labor shortage without result to compulsion, and will stimulate to useful employment any negroes who may have quit work because of Government allotments. The work of the Division of Negro Economics is carried on through State and county organizations composed in part of white and in part of colored citizens. There has been excellent cooperation between the races in working with the Negro problems. World's special problems were discussed recently at a conference held in Ocala, under the auspices of the State Negro Workers' Advisory Committee, the chairman of which is President N. B. Young of the A. & M. College for Negroes. An important part of the work of the State committee was the preparation of a program of activities for cooperation of white employers and negro workers in all parts of the State, to promote better understanding between them and to remove the discontent of the workers so that they will give voluntarily regular and enthusiastic work for greater production of food and supplies needed to win the war. Jacksonville' a local branch of the State committee has led to the establishment of a training center to instruct colored women along lines of work in which they can replace men, and W. A. Armwood, a Negro of Tampa, is touring the State to intrest Negro preachers, lodge leaders, and others in the Government's program. "If we are going to raise the food needed by our soldiers, our allies, and ourselves at home, every man and woman who can help in the garden or on the farm can see that it is his or her patriotic duty to join in," declares Dr. Haynes. "This is a bigger question than earning a living; it comes to be a question of working to have the food we need, to care for ourselves and other people from German slavery. Every landowner can also now see that this is a bigger question than success on his land, but a question of doing whatever needs to be done to induce laborers to work the land and raise the necessary food." TEN YEARS WITHOUT A DAY LOST Splendid Record Established by Worker at Fore River Plant Ten years' work without a day lost is the record established at the Fore River shipyard by Thomas Josephs, who has just been awarded a vacation with pay in recognition of his service. This is the sort of labor that counts against the Kaiser. LOOKING FOR HER SON Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 5, 1918. I am trying to locate my son, Thomas Jackson, who has been gone for five years.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1918. IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT OF NASHVILLE GLORY NNOUNCEMENT T SHVI LOE NASHVILLE GLOBE For more than four years the publishers of periodicals have had to face the rising tide of costs. Fully as much-perhaps more-than other lines of business, they have felt the fast-increasing burdens of the war. To this total must be added the printing and binding costs, that are advancing step by step with all the other processes that enter into the making of THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. A new schedule of printing and binding prices recently went into effect, adding $75.00 a week to our operating costs. This is only one step in the successive advances that we have experienced in this particular branch of manufacture. Added to all these are the increases in editorial expenses and all the multifarious charges that are included under the general term "over head charges." The publishers of THE NASHVILLE GLOBE have watched the prices of other papers advance from five to ten cents a copy, from ten to fifteen cents, and in some instances from fifteen to twenty cents. By increased economies in operation and by careful and painstaking business planning they have so far been able to maintain the low subscription prices of THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, hoping that for the duration of the war it would not be necessary to place any share of this burden of increased cost on the subscribers. These facts will clearly indicate that the fifty cents increase we ask for a year's subscription for THE NASHVILLE GLOBE does not even cover the increase in the manufacturing cost of the paper. In view of this we believe our many friends will consider this advance reasonable, just and conservative. We regret to say that this is no longer possible and that the time has come when it is imperative that we make a slight advance in our subscription rates. You may have noticed the announcement in last week's issue that the annual subscription rate for THE NASHVILLE GLOBE is now $2 instead of $1.50. We do not wish to leave our readers under the impression that this advance in price is permanent. When the war is over and normal and natural economic reactions bring about a decrease in the cost of labor and material, our subscribers can expect a corresponding reduction in the cost of their paper. It is almost unnecessary for us to explain to our readers the reasons for this action. The simple statement that the present low subscription price of THE NASHVILLE GLOBE has long since ceased to cover even the bare manufacturing cost of the paper is almost sufficient. In figuring this increase in price we have taken no account of the increase in the second class postage-rates. Last July a zone-postage law became effective. This law establishes a complicated system of postal rates for all publications that will eventually result in a heavy postage tax on paper subscribers. We are just completing new contracts for our paper supply for the coming twelve months. The advances in the cost of the paper alone needed to supply an individual year's subscription of fifty-two numbers of THE NASHVILLE GLOBE will be $1.28 more than the price we paid for the same amount of paper prior to America's entry into the war. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` --- ```markdown ``` OF THE THE NASHVILLE GLOBE.

I will tell you what will happen some night this winter in France. Some night when it's cold and dark. There will be a rustling through the front line trench, where our boys stand guard. And a heavy ladened Secretary will make his awy along. In his hands will be great steaming pots in his pocket chocolate and cigarettes. From one man to another he will go, passing a cup full of hot coffee to hands that tremble with the cold; bringing the comfort of a bit of sweet and a smoke. Men will call him cheerily, slapping him on the back; and when he has gone things will be a little easier in that trench because he has passed that way. How much will it cost to make that trip, do you suppose? Counting the pittance that the Secretary is paid, and the cost of the chocolate and the cigarettes and all? Five dollars? Twenty-five dollars? I do not know. But whether it is five dollars or two dollars, I'd like to think that it is my money or twenty-five wouldn't you? That some people it's cold and lonesome, my money and you might send a Secretary out along the frontline trench. Let's make up our minds that we are going to pay for a score of those trips. A score of the nights this winter shall be our nights. Wishes when the boys greet joyously the chocolate and cigarettes that our money provided; and are happier beause our representative has passed. SERVICE THAT WINS THE SOLDIER HEART. Fred Lockey, Y. M. C. A. Tells of the Gratitude the Boys at the Front "One of the discoveries men are making over here," Frei Lockley, of the Y. M. C. A. and of Portland, Oregon, writes from London, "is that more pleasure can be had out of giving than getting. Many a man who has spent money freely in the old days to buy pleasure is finding that more pleasure over here by the spending one's self in the service of others. "A few months ago I went out with a fellow Y. M. C. A. secretary to hunt up out-of-the-way detachments of troops. A stable guard is a machine gun company there, a platoon somewhere else. We carried our gooos in an automobile. We had plenty of writing paper and envelopes for free distribution, and chocolate, cookies, chewing tobacco and smoking tobacco, cigarettes, razor blades, tooth paste and things of that kind for sale. American war service workers were busy everywhere. We found Salvation Army lasses making mugs for the boys and K. of Secretary's giving help. Books furnished by the American Library Association were "Hearing firing at a distance we drove down the road and found a score or so of men at machine gun practice. The officer gave the menu half an hour recess to buy goods. "At another place we came in sixth of a lieutenant drilling a platoon. I said to the lieutenant: 'How soon before you dismiss the company? We have Y. M. C. A. goods for sale.' "He said: Right now. Sergeant, dismiss the company." And ten seconds later the company asks as the Hue waiting to buy goods from one of its suppliers is ful is no name for it. The men can't do enough to show their gratitude." WELD SEVEN WAR WORK AGENCIES INTO RELIEF ARMY. Great Organizations Which Are Helping to Keep Up the Morale of Fighting Millions Unite in Campaign for $170,500,000. With millions of American men on war fronts, in training camps and on the seas and with thousands of American women on foreign soil, all engaged in the suspicious task of making the world safe for democracy, a great force ofives upon those who remain in the United States—the duty of sending Home to those who have put Home behind them for the period of the war. The aerosacs through which this can be accomplished are joined in the United War Work Campaign. From being given the cigarette or chocolate bar, with which he stays his hunger in the fury of battle, to the theatrical entertainment or the athletic games, which relax him into normal comfort after weeks of tarrilic combat, the American fighter is burdened upon the continued efforts of the Y. M. C. Church, the National Catholic Church Council, and K. of C., the War Camn Community Service, the Jewish Welfare Board, the American Library Association and the Salvation Army. To carry on this work the combined welfare organizations are seeking a fund of $170,500,000. The Y. M. C.

"NO AMERICAN MAY REFUSE;" James Cardinal Gibbons, the leading Catholic churchman in America, has issued a strong appeal in support of the United War Work Campaign. "It is an American Campaign," he said. "Its appeal is one that no American may refuse. America's answer will be another triumphant announcement that we are in this war and that we are going to see it through to victory.

Girls, Too, Will Stand With Them Bhind Every Fighter at the Front. To put behind every Catholic fighter in France the support of one boy or girl in every parish throughout the United States is the plan of the National Catholic War Council for backing the Victory Boys' and Victory Girls' "Earn and Give" Division of the United Work War Campaign to raise $170,500,000 "for the boys over there" during the week of November 11-18.

Commander Evangeline Booth Says War Relief Work Must Be Extended Commander Evangeline Booth, leader of the Salvation Army in the United States, has been suddenly called upon to furnish 800 additional war work women for France. The request is contained in a report just received by her from Col. William A. Barker of the Salvationist forces, also to establish a general general war relief work with the American troops. “We will do all we can to fill this demand,” said Commander Booth when discussing the approaching United War Work Campaign, “and the need itself should impress the American public all the more with the absolute necessity for sustaining and enlarging the war relief work of the seven organizations, besides the noble Red Cross, now merged for a drive for funds. Each is a vital cog in a vast machine for human relief, and each is indispensable, serving its particular elements in its own way.” "The Salvation Army was born in hardship, reared in privation and trained to every phase of human misery and how to cope with it. Perhaps that accounts in some degree learned the lesson of how to do it and for which we are thankful. "We are of the common people, and we toil on a practical basis. We for the success our work has attained in the Boer war, when we stood at the side of Britain's troops and weathered it out to the end. We have been tried by fire, and the mothers and fathers of America, as in other countries, trust the Salvation Army in the thing they would like for their men if they but hold the chance. "With 1,210 trained workers at the front, operating from 420 huts and dugouts, the Salvation Army is doing, has done and will continue to do its best for the cause of humanity and Liberty." CURE FOR BLUES NEAR THE CAMPS. Community Service Takes Place of Mother, Friends and Home for Ten young officers of the Student Army Training Corps of the University of Detroit recently applied for a furnished room and a housekeeper who would not be a servant, but, as one young officer expressed it, "the sort of woman to whom the boys can call out, 'Hello, mother!' when they come in the front door." Homesickness is the malady for which War Camp Community Service supplies innumerable cures. "We've got your number," says the W. C. S. to the homeschool boy from camp with lieure to spend in any one of the three hundred towns scattered over the country. While he's wondering what on earth he'll do with himself when he goes there, not knowing a soul in town and with a limited percentage of his "thirty per" in his pocket, along comes a friendly printed card from the local branch of his own lodge announcing a receipt that night especially for soldier members. The Methodist church sends an announcement of all its meetings, addressed to him, with This Meang You printed at the bottom. How did they know he was a Methodist? He had forgotten about the little "Personal Card" he made out at the adjutant's request during his first day in camp when it was only one of the endless details in the round of dentists and doctors and general confusion. The W. C. C. S. had not only his number, but his name and address, his home town, the name of the school he'd gone to and a good bit about the things he was fondest of doing—each fact written into a little blank on the card especially for it.
